Prerequisites, i.e. the most important things

Time of writing: Jan 18, 2023. The following assume you're trying to install CUDA on WSL2 Ubuntu.
Check support matrix first before you install any version of CUDA, because chances are the latest CUDA does not have cuDNN support yet, then you'll have to re-install older version if you found out later.

https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/cudnn/support-matrix/index.html#cudnn-cuda-hardware-versions

At the time of writing, the latest cuDNN version is 8.7 and it supports CUDA 11.8.
Windows 10 must be build 20145 or later.

Silent Payments

Receive private payments from anyone on a single static address without requiring any interaction or extra on-chain overhead.

Update: This now has a BIP and WIP implementation

Overview

The recipient generates a so-called silent payment address and makes it publicly known. The sender then takes a public key from one of their chosen inputs for the payment, and uses it to derive a shared secret that is then used to tweak the silent payment address. The recipient detects the payment by scanning every transaction in the blockchain.

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

📂 Minimize allocations in Go

A collection of tips for when you need to minimize the number of allocations in your Go programs.

Use the go profiler to identify which parts of your program are responsible for most allocations.

⚠️ Never apply these tricks blindly (i.e. without measuring the actual performance benefit/impact). Most of these tricks cause a tradeoff between reducing memory allocations and other aspects (including e.g. higher peak memory usage, higher CPU usage, lower maintainability, higher probability of introducing subtle bugs). Only apply these tricks if the tradeoff in every specfic case is globally positive.
