It doesn't seem that logical statements matter: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27722154 What matters is just grabbing some pitchforks and cancelling someone.
If you look for racism, you'll find it, even when it's not there. Skin color is a function of two things: 1. Amount of environmental sunlight (latitude). 2. Amount of circumstantial exposure to sunlight (lifestyle). If…
You're describing features that many other animals have. Being bipedal, hunting, using projectiles, and so on.
Clockrate is not a bottleneck on how fast your computer is. It's just a synchronization primitive. Think about it like the tempo of a song. The entire orchestra needs to play in sync with the tempo, but how many notes…
That's kinda the case with Copilot, or I'd just type: // Unify relativity with quantum mechanics. I'm trying to say Copilot is not a fundamental shift to programming. It's what programming already is, and we already…
Yes, it literally isn't a match. It's also not a match for a pepperoni pizza.
Programming is already conversational. I'm telling a computer what I want, it does it, I see what it does, and elaborate or correct myself where necessary. Repeat endless times, until product exists.
Well, "never" is a long time. Copilot is definitely no replacement for anything except copying from Stack Overflow for juniors. But in the long run, AI is us basically us creating our own replacement. As a species. We…
A lot of these edge cases are about theoretical concerns like "how many digits we need in decimal to represent an exact IEEE binary float". In practice a double is 15.6 digits precise, which Excel rounds to 15 to…
Excel rounds doubles to 15 digits for display and comparison. The exact precision of doubles is something like 15.6 digits, those remaining 0.6 digits causing some of those examples floating (heh) around.
Business types hate dealing with programmers, that's a fact. And these claims of "we'll replace programmers" happen with certain precise regularity. Ruby on Rails was advertised as so simple, startup founders who can't…
So, nothing new, is your point?
It's very easy: don't use copilot code verbatim, and you won't have GPL code verbatim.
> And these are the hand picked examples. This product seems like it needs some more thought. Everyone's self-preservation instincts kicking in to attack Copilot is kinda amusing to watch. Copilot is not supposed to…
Google is interested in eliminating native applications in favor of web apps that it can control by providing analytics, SEO, ads, and so on. So they're very aggressive to introducing "app-like" APIs to Chrome even…
And ironically we have no types for units in most languages. Instead we need to wrap numbers in objects making them extremely cumbersome to work with.
The number of sets we can represent with fingers is 11, including the empty set. As for bijective base 10, it's interesting, but it's still not the base 10 we're using, so we can't quite blame this on our fingers.
The thing I can't seem to get across to you, is that you don't query a graph by specifying a join expression. Graph databases aren't built for that. So no, SQL is not "capable of querying a graph". It's capable of…
What customers hate is tier 1 support acting as a brick wall between them and the people with the solution to their problem. Or at least that's how they perceive it. While I don't shout at tech support, as I know what…
> Sounds like a customer support person just made up a reason. This happens a lot, I find. People just hate having no answer for you. So they make up one.
SQL is neither a graph or hypergraph query language, because relations don't define the graph (or hypergraph). The query does. Deriving a graph and querying a graph are two different things. A graph query language…
Everyone is thinking about a "shifted" base 10, yes. But every base starts with 0, there's no such thing as "shifted base" because then you literally can't represent 0. Also "zero fingers" is still a thing that exists…
Most of us are programmers here, you are just as used to hex. Also technically we don't have that many fingers. We have one more finger. We don't have a number digit for ten right? They go zero to nine. But out fingers…
By keep up I mean in terms of standards. Edge was always usable, but you'll always get second-grade experience if apps switch to the "fallback mode" on your browser. Google is playing this game of quickly introducing…
Typical speeds for "current G + 1" is always high and mysteriously gets significantly lower when "current G + 2" gets introduced. Rinse and repeat. I'm not sure how come everyone is so highly interested in this churn of…
