Love the 8601 evangelism.
I read Simon Singh's book as a young teenager - loved it!
It's because git replays your commits one at a time on top of a new commit; so if you resolve a conflict but then your next commits also touches the same code, the intent is ambiguous to git and it asks for your help…
I always wonder what the politicians are really thinking here. Is Albo like "this is optics for the plebs, just a bit of window dressing bureaucracy on top of the normal market mechanisms where the data centre buying…
Can confirm the Baldur's Gate 2 manual was an endlessly fascinating tome.
The generous interpretation of the OPs comment it was gentle hyperbole but directionally correct relative to the not so distant past.
Ahhhh but cancer treatment has gotten significantly better over the last 50 years. Cancer research has a half-decent feedback mechanism that means fads eventually have to prove themselves or die out.
I suspect it is the feedback from the stricter compiler, not differences in training data between python and rust
> I feel like 20 or 30 years ago, the average person seemed to have more disposable income. Big if true but is it true?
Totally - the (useful) economic models they are bringing are being extrapolated into very unusual territory!
If AIs become smart enough to outperform a critical mass of humans across the board, that's the singularity and whilst the economic model says all humans out of jobs means no consumers, the model isn't really valid…
It's satirical argument against claims that computers will never be as intelligent as humans.
I enjoy having a DVD player for the kids, it makes curating their options so much easier.
Thankyou, this is the comment I came here for - advice on alternatives!
Yes, it is much easier to train someone to use AI than to train them to have sufficiently baked-in math and language skills to be able to leverage the AI.
Integration of the air cooling and water heating. For example, I have a air conditioner pumping heat out of my house right next to a box that's putting heat into the water coming into my house.
We are a happy paying customer at $DAYJOB. Also, I looked into omfiles for a project recently, I was very impressed with their speed and blown away by the compression ratios!
Yes this is much stronger and relevant evidence
When I watched a very short clip juxtaposed next to a clip of a nazi salute, then it looked like one to me. But when I watched it in context, it looked like a man putting a hand on his heart and then proffering his…
It's fun to sit down and draw what the board looks like when you cut and flatten the torus before you watch the video! Bonus points if you hit upon the other 2D projection that is useful (I didn't)
The way you learn is totally different from the way a novice learns; they don't have a vast memorised store of knowledge, let alone the connected structure over that memorised knowledge. When you learn something, it…
Projects are less efficient for learning foundational skills. They have their place, but with infinite funds I would still give my children an education with a bedrock of boring drill and testing and memorisation.
I just went and had a flutter at being a high school math teacher. I went in saying 'I never used math to create until my honours year, I want different for my students'. I soon changed my mind; I think those of us who…
Nothing, they just don't make the headlines.
> Okay, but you can do the same in dynamically typed Python But the rust code is still safer, e.g. you haven't checked for an `AttributeError` in case `req.cookies`, the point is Rust protects you from this rabbit-hole,…
