Lol. The resume includes expert in Mia Khalifa easter egg.
Power abhors a vacuum.
Another thing is that COBOL records commonly have complicated unions (to save space) where a separate code affects how you interpret the fields. You need to understand all the business logic to make sure you are reading…
The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't...
And if it causes near-universal outrage, what then?
This reminds me of the duct tape X-ray source.
Or worse, pursuing something already proven not to work.
> Huh? How do you think `const char s = "Hello"; const char t = &s[1];` works? I think you and the parent are using different definitions of granularity. The parent meant that sizeof(t) could be 32 or 64 bits. I think…
I think there is a skill issue. Just like in any other pursuit, some people are going to be better at using AI productively. It is a tool. You are still responsible for the quality of the resulting code whatever the mix…
The thing I find fascinating is that apparently there is a chunk of behavior that we might define as “intelligent” on some level that seems directly encoded in language itself.
The 737 design is like an axe that had its head and handle changed a few times. Is it still the same axe?
From what I have read, John had a genius for what you might call relentless optimization. Even if they just improve the performance or reduce the hardware requirements of executing an already trained LLM that would be a…
I was pleased that he called his write up on the industrial design for the computer, a case study.
Johnny Fox https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Fox_(performer) you are missed.
I remember the doctor explaining that newborns are slippery. All I could imagine was the newborn launching from this contraption with doctor and nurses attempting to catch as the baby slips from person to person while…
I just saw an article that explains the superconducting diode effect https://phys.org/news/2023-08-ubiquitous-superconductive-dio... So theres the answer.
How would that work? A diode requires a p-n junction created by doping the substrate. It has low resistance in one direction but ideally infinite resistance in the other direction.
The sweet spot for SO for me is workarounds for esoteric problems, not for more common issues because the solutions tend to be out of date (but correct for an older version of the library or whatever).
The question is what you really believe to be true. If your car hit me and you truly didn’t remember it that way then you are proving the author’s point. Maybe you do remember hitting me. There will still be innumerable…
I think the point is that interpretation is all we really have. We believe that memories are these absolute things, but rigorous studies show that no human being remembers things perfectly, even when they believe they…
I was a juror on a very small case. A previous trial assigned guilt. Our trial was to determine damages. It was eye opening for me. We were not allowed to know things like medical bills and costs the victim incurred. We…
I read a short story (don’t remember the author), the gist of which was an a future where time travel is possible and accessible. There was a group tasked with cleaning up time travel mistakes. Their motto was Everyone…
It was implied that we would see another Earth. But that is a science fiction trope.
The debt ceiling doesn’t control spending because it is a misnomer. The money has already been spent. The debt ceiling controls whether the government will honor the obligations it has already made.
For certain types of prompts like basic arithmetic that would give ChatGPT trouble, it actually does do a good job coming up with useful questions when prompted. For example, if you ask it the answer to 2 * diameter of…
