Arbitration Quotes

The original AMD GCN architecture allowed for one source of graphics commands, and two sources of compute commands.

So-called "natural language" is wonderful for the purposes it was created for, such as to be rude in, to tell jokes in, to cheat or to make love in (and Theorists of Literary Criticism can even be content-free in it), but it is hopelessly inadequate when we have to deal unambiguously with situations of great intricacy, situations which unavoidably arise in such activities as legislation, arbitration, mathematics or programming.

The misperception arose because when the peace agreement was signed in 2005, Abyei accounted for a quarter of Sudan's oil production.
