Le Cam wrote his likelihood papers and books before the end of the 1950s, computational statistics spent decades finding numerical approximations through linearizations for increasingly complex models, only for for forward mode autodiff to make the computational work irrelevant

I also found that most agents are quite good at writing idiosyncratic #perl scripts, i.e., at following personal style.
As people are becoming token poor, I hope they discover that the chatbots are reasonably good at writing #Perl and that one can fit lots of tasks on a limited token budget using the expressiveness of the language.
Price of 2 NVIDIA P100 (total 32GB of DRAM) are quite competitive at eBay now (roughly 250 dollars with their fans). Go for that, or wait for the price of V100 to come down? (currently one 32GB V100 is ~ $800 with the blower). I can power 1200W worth of GPU with my 1600W PSU
I went through a bunch of PCIe usb cards that can allow the P2 Solo to communicate with MinKnow (per ONT connecting those devices to a PCIe/USB is a No-No). Can verify we have liftoff w the Startech 20gbps , but not the U3142c. May need to ⬆️ Linux buffer size for DAQ #nanopore

Honestly, what’s going on with AWS support lately? https://www.reddit.com/r/aws/comments/1sfroou/honestly_whats_going_on_with_aws_support_lately/

Let me tell you what's going on with em. AWS/Amazon fired human talent & replaced it with AI bots for support/writing code. It is full of bugs now. You might as well dump them and get a dedicated server or standalone VPS. It is useless to argue with Amazon or any Big Tech who has gone AI batshit crazy and is replacing human talent with bots so that the owners can get another private island.

BTW, AWS or dedicated server or VPS, choose whatever you fancy, always keep offsite backups and test them too. that is the only plan you need. everything else is just stupid noise.

I am not entirely sure the entire 2000 lines of #rstats code I vibe coded for a paper using the algo specs are needed.
