Nokia did (and probably still does) this as well, plus it gives inventor a share in revenue generated by the patented invention. Some ex-colleagues had made a small fortune out of this back in heydays. No wonder Nokia still holds so much important patents.
The document doesn’t say how much. I guess, it’s just an umbrella document. More detailed regulations will be eventually adopted. That said, my estimate would be 500€ max per month.
that would not work. 500€ is not enough to pay rent in most places.
it would have to something that covers your current living expenses, no matter how high they are, because unless you are young and single with a lot of flexibility, you are not going to be able to put a hold on all those expenses.
therefore the two reasonable options are: the government continues to pay your current salary, or it pays what you'd get if they'd hire you. the latter would disadvantage high earners, but that is somewhat reasonable.
anything less would unlikely get any people interested.
Does anyone know what kind of GPU support for Spark is mentioned in this announcement? Are they talking about existing XGBoost acceleration, or is it something general-purpose?
"based on the open source RAPIDS suite of software libraries" […] "will allow developers to take their Spark code and, without modification, run it on GPUs instead of CPUs"
I don't think it's practical. None of the search engines give me results of quality high enough for my daily software development problem, but Google. Tried them all. If you want to get stuff done, you google it. If you want to play socially responsible society member role, you try alternative browsers, until you run out of time, then you google it.
I don't know what you're searching, but I found the opposite to be true. Exceptions being local to geo area shopping, searching for images with text on them with the text - think xkcd -, and extremely obscure software error messages - apart from these, DDG beats google for me. Has been for quite a while.
