>That got me paying attention to how hunger effects food enjoyment. I cured my lifelong pickiness thanks to an excessively long diet. The pickiness had tempered itself somewhat over the years, but my food choices were…
Is this really problem solving? I thought this stuff was done by basically just memorizing patterns. Not saying it's easy, but seems like more a combination of memorization + muscle memory.
IMO, FOV is the biggest immersion killer in VR today, and doesn't get nearly enough attention. It's not so bad when you're relatively new to it as the illusion is convincing enough that you don't notice, but once the…
There's no labor shortage there either. Go look at the Canada trades/jobs subreddits. Go look at the experiences of new grads who can't find an entry level job that pays a decent wage. Go look at how many kids want to…
I can't take RMS seriously any more after he supported Covid vaccine mandates. A closed source printer driver is evil, but forcing people to get a proprietary novel medical treatment from a giant corporation that stands…
We don't need more workers. This is a corporate lie to suppress wages. It's clear some of you haven't spoken to a new grad looking for a job in ages.
Isn't that expected since LLMs are inherently non-deterministic?
I think War and Peace is the longest book I've ever read. Most editions have 1300-1400 pages.
I've always liked the analogy that talking to an LLM is like talking to a really, really smart person with a head injury.
Ah yes, it's always someone else's problem. God knows the federal government is not responsible for managing anything important that might translate into poor QoL.
No, it's in the increasingly growing tent cities in my town, and among the junkies that have taken over downtown Ottawa. Glad to hear you're doing well, though.
Good point. We should abolish any party that can't win an election.
This is such a cool idea and I want to build one. I wish I had this kind of creativity. I can do the hardware/software side, but great ideas elude me.
The capacitive multitouch screen and the software/gestures to go with it was what made the iPhone a success. All the other feature phones of the time were so much less pleasant to use - I had one, the Nokia N95. On…
IMO, price is the problem. I can afford a folding phone, but I can't justify the cost for a tertiary computing device. Whenever possible I'd rather use a desktop, followed by a laptop. If I was more dependent on my…
SERIOUSLY?! You'd be surprised how few people know you can easily spot planets with the naked eye, in addition to many other little interesting things in life. You react as if he didn't know how to his shoes.
It reminds me of how the first Terminator moved because of the stop motion effects.
Sloppity slop.
WFH was a great example of this. Everyone seemed to be on board, this was the way of the future, etc. Yet it seems nobody in charge thought about downtown economies or commercial real estate, and it turns out having a…
I'm tired of being told what things aren't or what they don't do.
I suspect he was not nearly as lean as he suspected. Everyone over estimates how much fat they have to lose until they actually try to get shredded. My own efforts let me to discover that despite lifting weights in a…
My alma mater took an interesting approach in that they dived right into vector spaces right away. At the time we used Elementary Linear Algebra by Nicholson in the prof's custom order, but it seems they've since…
I can relate to all of these. One way to get rid of them is to put them on a "special project". Something low stakes and inconsequential to keep them busy.
It's a big club - and you ain't in it.
