What is the chance that someone saves them from bankruptcy?
Not really. Watch: "Are We Really 99% Chimp?" https://youtu.be/IbY122CSC5w
Hanlon's razor never applies when politics or money is involved. Best to just suspend your judgement instead of giving politicians the benefit of the doubt.
This is explained in the talk he gave. One of the benefits is that with new syntax the semantics can change without breaking backward compatibility, e.g. [[nodiscard]] can become default for all functions written in the…
I am curious about companies who survived/flourished despite seemingly key employees quitting or employees quitting en masse.
My impression from reading about chess engines online is that drawing is far simpler if that is your explicit goal. Several comments online on different websites claims that they are able to end games in draws against…
I agree. My guess is that institutional malice is fully explained by economic incentives 99% of the time. Which the version from the other comment cover: "Never attribute to stupidity, that which can be adequately…
Yes, thank you, I was in fact primarily (but not exclusively) thinking of economic incentives! I will use your phrasing from now on.
I personally find this saying extremely overrated and damaging in many cases. Especially considering the pacifying effect it can have on attempting to undo certain injustices. Best use of it is in your personal life…
Successfully? The last line from the AI indicates otherwise.
Yup agreed, commented the exact same below.
Agreed. But if you could maintain a system that avoids a very unlikely scenario with possibly huge disastrous consequences, then why not?
You are correct of course. The 3 children per woman limit is still the smallest number that accommodates for the 2.1 average required for replacement level. To achieve equilibrium and avoid rapid growth the limit must…
It could also be that they see no scenario ahead where they want the average number of children per woman to be above 3. I don't think China wants back to exponential growth ever. They probably want to find their…
Concurrency/Parallelism is the number one reason I move a project from Python to any other language. It's one the few areas where Python can't provide a gracious frontend or an acceptable runtime, but it is very…
New version bumps after 8 are not necessarily major.
Agreed. Just gonna drop this here: Nicolai Josuttis “The Nightmare of Initialization in C++” [0] [0] https://youtu.be/7DTlWPgX6zs
The problem is not just complexity, but complexity with tons of pitfalls.
Kind of ironic that I would agree with you. The reason I still wrote it is that my opinion just recently changed from liking C++ but understanding the pitfalls to a more pragmatic this is not worth the time or effort.
But that is not inherently a bad thing. If we look at programming languages as tools, it makes sense for them to get out of date and new ones taking their place, with all the lessons learned. So its possible that…
Even as a C++ programmer with too much spare time, it has become obvious that learning and using all of C++ is beyond impractical. To the point where I find that my C++ code more than ever before looks like C. Nowadays…
I can see how solving for perfect cooperation can leave people irritated. That's why most algorithms used in OSs takes latency, fairness etc. into account. Algorithms in between might work better in real life, e.g.…
This (free) product is not something I need, so let me quickly make everyone aware of that. Also here is something else I would rather have that actually would demand a very different kind of effort.
Completely agree. Unapparent effective price fixing is standard. The modern governments has dropped the ball on trying to understand the modern markets.
Honestly heard it more than once from smaller players. I can see how the bigger players gets away with this based on all the other things they get away with that we know about.
