Please do yourselves a favor if you haven't already and check out the tacos at Taqueria el Sabor del Parque on the south side of Patterson Park. Also while you're in the area, grab a kilo of tortillas from El Taquito Mexicano in Fells.

Not true. You can select CPU and/or GPU. You can even choose to use specific GPUs by index number. So it's quite flexible.

I thought homomorphic encryption was supposed to fill the niche of allowing one to securely run VMs in a cloud environment. I've not heard of serious progress on this front the last time I went looking. Will we always require hardware with a "secure enclave"-like device to safely store keys in a public cloud? Is it possible to implement this scheme purely in software or is some "trusted" hardware always necessary?

What about hard drives in a datacenter? Polling read latency for instance of a couple thousand drives could provide enough data. Has this been attempted before?

I also read through the comment thinking.. deja vu? But yeah it was a copy paste from three weeks ago.

Are there any devices that ship with Android that could be reflashed to support a Linux kernel with KVM or Xen bits? Either Intel Atom or ARM-based devices?

To add onto this, my boss is very well renowned in his field. Is it generally ill-advised to have a boss that is also a mentor?

Many of the datasets that I've seen in academia are stored in static SQL databases that tend to be about 10-20 terabytes. Where does this leave individuals with limited resources who would like to query large databases without having to juggle the data management side of research? Are there softwares that make database querying P2P accessible?
