bombitaon Ask HN: How did my LastPass master password get leaked?

Actually that can very much be the case. Just checked and I signed up for it on Sun, 4 Jun 2017, 08:17, which fits the breach (not sure what was the exact date on it)

bombitaon Ask HN: How did my LastPass master password get leaked?

Another data point, same deal.

Went ahead and deleted my Lastpass account and changed my password in other password managers.

bombitaon Announcing Flutter beta 1: Build beautiful native apps

> But back to Flutter, it uses Dart. I honestly don't see the point of Dart. Maybe it's just me but I don't want optional typing, or rather optional type hinting. I want static typing. The romance with dynamic typing over the last decade I think is on a downward trajectory with the rise of the likes of Go (really a better Python) and Rust.

FYI Dart2 is no longer optionally typed.

I can find the article this person is referring just by looking at a string of it. So the article _is_ indexed. Not sure what he is referring to.

bombitaon GitHub Code Search – Programmers' Goldmine

I still think that Google Chromium code search repository is by far the best one I've seen. Things like following refs everywhere and seeing git blame and related files makes it a hell of a lot better than github. https://codesearch.chromium.org/chromium/src/components/inva...

Same here. I tried one hour ago and could get one and now is all "Get Access"

Bad Springer :(

bombitaon A Full Hardware Guide to Deep Learning

Just my 2 cents. I've been trying my scientific computing code (QM/MM, not ML) in a cluster using various configs (6xK40, 4xK80, 6xK20, etc) and the performance I noticed of the K80 is quite strange. I've been using the CUDA_DEVICE 0,1,2,3 of that config and if I try to use more than one logical GPU, the performance is not 1:1, but more like 1:0.6

The only conclusion I've been able to find is that the K80 presents itself as 2 different devices (0,1 or 2,3 in that config) but the performance is not 2x, at all. There is quite a lot of PCI bus contention, hurting badly the performance of my code (as it is just running many <10ms kernels at a time). So far, having 2xK40 seems to be a better value and performance proposition than 1xK80 on the same bus, but the flops/watt aspect of that equation favors greatly the K80.
