Is it possible to get tensrflowp-gpu working on macbook pro with High Sierra - macos

I am trying to install tensorflow-gpu on my macbook pro and have tried pretty much everything which I will briefly mention. But first here is my setup
Macbook pro retina 15"
High Sierra 10.13.4
NVIDIA GT650M card
Over the past two weeks I have tried all sorts of combinations and fed up with drivers/versions especially with High Sierra 10.13.4 and variables and so on.
If anybody has had success with this please could they tell me or point me to the versions and method for
CUDA
CUDNN
Tensorflow-gpu (understand 1.1 is the highest for mac)
XCode (I have 9.2)
and anything else.
I have my anaconda environment working well for all of the machine learning stuff on CPU and consider using the GPU to be the next challenge.

Here's a link that may help.
I have installed using the same guidelines and it's working for me on macbook pro with same configuration.

I was able to compile tensorflow 1.4.0 with GPU support for my MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013) with GT 750M card under MacOS 10.12.6 with instructions from the following link:

XCode, Appium: Can we run our iOS tests in the native simulator in MacOS with M1 chip?

Just a question. There has been a discussion in our organization that we cannot build our iOS app in a Mac with M1 Pro chip :/ I don't believe it honestly and I think it's possible. But is it possible? We've also been encountering different errors in MacOS like some imports are not available in M1 Pro but are available in Intel chip. I tried to search for related topics but can't find much information if the user in the tutorials are using Intel chip or M1 Pro chip.
Appium supports M1 chips since version 1.20.0 which was released almost 2 years ago and I doubt it matters if it is a Pro chip or not. To be sure you should use Appium 2.x with the latest xcuitest driver installed (Appium 1.x is not actively maintained anymore). If you cannot build your own app on M1 Pro chip - that issue is not related to Appium.

Ubuntu 20.4 Asus Tuf Dash F15 Can't Install Nvidia Driver

I have installed a fresh version of Ubuntu 20.4 on my band new Asus Tuf Dash F15 laptop. Then I went into the software update settings and switched the driver to nvidia-460 proprietary using the GUI. I apply the changes and restart and I get stuck at a boot loading screen. The error is /dev/nvm1e0 clean: xxxblocks/xxx.
Specs: Nvidia RTX 36060 mobile Intel i7 40gb ram 1tb storage
I have tried installing the nvidia drivers 4 different ways, according to the nvidia official installation guide and multiple medium forums. Every time I get the same problem and have to alt+shift+f2 my way into the terminal to sudo apt-get purge nvidia* to be able to boot back in.
I've installed nvidia diver on ubuntu many other times according to the nvidia official docs and never ran into this error. I am concerned it may be hardware incompatibility at this point?
I've been trying for five days now and re-installed ubuntu multiple times, varying the partitions and installation methods. Everything is working fine until I try and switch to nvidia driver. I even tried some older and new driver versions and the nvidia cuda toolkit 10 and 11. Please help, thank you.

GPU is not recognized on Mac OS high sierra 10.13.6

I'm trying to run the GPU on Mac OS high Sierra 10.13.6(17G65) right now.
I installed the Nvidia web driver 387.10.10.10.40.105 and CUDA driver 396.148 on my Mac.
But my mac never recognized the GPU.
Can you tell me what is causing this?
I'm Japanese and my English is not very good, so I'm using DeepL to write this article.
I'm not very good at writing, but I'd appreciate it.

Xcode 8.2.1 iOS simulator slow

I bought a new mac book pro.
System features:
2.0GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 processor, Turbo Boost up to 3.1GHz
8GB 1866MHz memory
256GB PCIe-based SSD
Intel Iris Graphics 540
Two Thunderbolt 3 ports
MacOs Sierra 10.12.1
You can see the details from here
My problem is, I installed xcode 8.2.1 and tested it. It's really fast, but there's slowdown in the simulator. Deceleration is not in page transitions, but in scrolling actions.I've tried both the iOS 9.0 and the iOS 10.2 simulator, but the situation is the same.
I have found a solution that I have researched. "Close the debug-slow animations option in the simulator" but this is not the case.
I do not know if the issue is related to xcode or sierra, but I do not think it's about hardware. I tried it for Android emulator, but it worked very fast. I do not know if there is a connection, but I think that if the hardware is inadequate, it should work slowly in the android emulator.
Do you have an idea on this?

Xcode 6 crash on UI debug

I'm using Xcode 6.0.1 on Mavericks and experiencing crash every time I try to inspect UI and:
unfold the view hierarchy
rotate the 3D inspection view
But it's not just crash. It literally restarts my Macbook Pro.
I had the same problem, and I was able to narrow it down to an issue with the discrete graphics card on my Macbook Pro (it has the hybrid integrated Intel / discrete Nvidia chips). When forcing my Macbook Pro to use the integrated Intel chip exclusively, it no longer crashed.
You can get gfxcardstatus to force your Mac to use the integrated chip exclusively.
If you use Homebrew Cask,
brew cask install gfxcardstatus
and then select 'Integrated only' from the app's menu bar icon before inspecting the UI.
It is bug for new Xcode with old System Maverick. I install new Yosemite and all working on my MacBook 2009.
