Happy B-Day, Petri! :-)

Mine was June 30th, I'm 51 now... BUT, I'm in the "Forever 16 Club!" ;-)

1984 was a VERY good year. :-)

Happy B-day Petri! Welcome to the 2nd half of (hopefully) your century on the planet. So far I find it's been great, other than there seems to be some weird space/time irregularity occurring, because for some reason each year seems to be going by faster and faster, and I can't seem to figure out why, or how to slow it down! Oh well, just try and enjoy every day.


. . Yeah! I've been noticing that time contraction problem ... I wonder if there is a cure .... ?? :)

Thanks every one.

To the shortening of years I an explanation found have: you compare a year to your lived life. Each year is less and less of the total lived. My year is now 1/50. Next year is a bit less. It is 1/51 etc.


. . That makes a mathematical sort of sense :)

Unfortunately, I can only think of one 'cure' for this issue, and I am more than happy to wait many, Many years for it... ;-)

At this time - no. One of our developers has a Titan V with Tensor cores. But he has not been able to use them in his app so far. He can use the large number of CUDA cores though.
