Wait, is there a StarCraft coming in 2030??
> Generalized Star-Height at Most Three This was an open problem in automata theory I worked on for more than one year before giving up. I'm very curious about their claimed proof.
They are, but if the country has a law forbidding you from doing anything, things cannot move forward. If they'll not work, of course they won't be built. And large classic reactors are unlikely to be built either, even…
The idea is to go to new-generation SMRs, not revive decades-old plants, which is actually impossible.
> 06 - Somatic limb regeneration At least those things cannot be solved by just burning GPT tokens.
This sounded to me like that old “would you steal a car?” anti-piracy campaign until I clicked to read the post :)
In the contrary it’s one of the best design decisions of the language. The rules for object safety are the same C++ applies to virtual functions. On the other hand you don’t have to choose a priori whether you’ll need…
Indeed, thanks :)
Unbelievably I read this news while visiting Cork. Went to Kinsale yesterday. Never been to Ireland before. What a coincidence!
I thought the US government had just decided that the cause of autism was vaccines </sarcasm>
Yes, C++26 reflection is nice, but also extremely complex to understand and use well. The rest of C++26 is the usual series of too-little-too-late additions. Meanwhile I’m still waiting for pattern matching to become a…
I understand the issue about the ever-moving target etc., but almost fifteen years later do you really believe C++98 is better than C++11 without move semantics and decent smart pointers? I remember working with Qt5 and…
What is a product? So you take two natural numbers `a` and `b`, and you want to sum `a` for `b` times, or vice versa. Then things become complicated if you want to do that quickly...
I was about to start arguing why I don't agree but then I thought it was better not to :P
Yes, but logic gates with constant fan-in, crucially, otherwise that's called AC.
That's true for two `rectangle` paths, but for two nodes that's what I would expect as a user. Anyway, not an easy problem for sure.
I've tried it now a little. The UI looks very cool, and generally the project is cool so congrats! However, the generated TikZ code is not good in my opinion. Everything uses absolute coordinates, which in TikZ is…
Indeed! Not scientifically controversial at all, but politically controversial, unfortunately.
We all should feel sad and angry. That said, this was never about saving money. This is about keeping scientists under tight control by the government, in order to suppress research on climate change and other…
Afaik std::span does not need anything that was not in C++98 already, or am I missing something?
> It seems that some people are really losing the taste for good readable code. It seems that some people never had taste for good reliable code. Use `void ` and now any error whatsoever is a direct undefined behavior.…
Too bad HN nicknames cannot be put for sale :)
So LLMs are destroying the economy and the environment but at least “catastrophic risk” is still low. Ok then…
Off topic, but I sincerely ask: am I the only one that is disturbed by the use of the term "Mac OS X" to refer to modern versions of the OS that is currently called "macOS"? (and not MacOS either) I mean, the name was…
Is it really worth? YMMV, but yes if you ask me.
