I congratulate you on an accurate diagnosis, I think all three are true. I don't remember the details of Excession very well as I didn't actually like it and relied on an LLM too m…

Impressive stuff. I wonder if he's inspired by Ian Hubert's work?

A better example I've seen for the theorem is that if you take a paper map of a country, messily schrunch it up into a ball and drop it somewhere in the country, there will be at l…

Do you have a recommendation for how to get into ASP? I've read the clingo docs, but it has never clicked.

I think you've misunderstood. Megabyte scales better with context window length. I don't know if they're saying the training data / compute are any more efficient.

Ah yes, AI doesn't have any significant use cases and is only good for party tricks, but also it's going to be used by paymasters to erode wages. If it's useless, it can hardly rep…

I expect it's impossible to do so without damaging them, and it's no longer necessary with modern imaging techniques.

I know programmers are prone to legal hacks that don't make sense, but I'm curious whether the following would work. As I understand it, it's ok to reference a Pantone Color by nam…

It means round-the-clock as in "it works during the day and night", rather than literally non-stop. For example, if I said that security did "round the clock patrols", you wouldn't…

In Europe, the floor level with the ground is called "ground" or "0".

So, just to be clear, you have almost no Unity objects in your scene. The tree renderer reads data from your core game lib, and draws it. Which Unity API do you use for the actual …

Net worth is the more relevant value for a loan guarantee.

I don't think you've really thought about how awful the middle ages are. > The Kings had access to much more information than they cared about already. Royals used to have portrait…

I sell an game development tool on the Unity Asset store. Since the peak died down, it's now somewhat under $500/mo, but still does well in occasional sales.

In most languages Subset would be called a trait or interface, rather than general inheritance. You've picked an example with no fields or overriden methods, so it's impossible for…

I see he often places multiple cards flat against each other - probably gives the structure more weight against random gusts and jostles.

It only appears in certain rare configurations. You need a section of town with no exterior corners.

> Weeds are getting harder to kill as herbicide-resistant varieties survive Surely it won't take long for camera-resistant weeds to evolve? They will learn to avoid detection via c…

You don't mean 100% accuracy, that means mistakes are impossible. Perhaps your error rate is very rare, but it's a bit concerning you don't attempt to quantify it.

MIT is already an extremely permissive license. Seems kinda mean to complain that something is merely 90% good because you are comparing to something 99% good. What sort of problem…

Strangly fixated on how "free software" is not a metonym. I wonder what the author would make of free speech, let alone the fact that grammer is completely irrelevant to the point …

Or, people have already seen transplants and prosthetics, and it's easy to observe that the pros outweigh the cons.

Timing and legal obligations mostly. Share issues require a lengthy process to get approved. GME actually had one pre-approved, but they still couldn't use it, as they may not lega…
