What do you base this prediction on? It seems very unlikely, unless by SOTA you mean the current SOTA.

For context on why this region is burning so easily: the Landes and Médoc are huge, artificial pine forests created in the 19th century under Napoleon III to drain and reclaim what…

So, synthesizing both comments: state-backed infrastructure funding + deregulated free-market buildout = rapid expansion

It's possible the tool is useless and a consequence of not reading the manual, but it could just be the tool is nice but the examples are too simplistic. In any case, toxicity asid…

Some of these are wrong, as standard shell globs don't traverse directories. For instance the first example should be: ls **/*.sh I think that would work in Bash just as well as us…

In school, our teachers made us take turns reading the textbook. When it was my turn, I focused entirely on how my voice sounded, trying to match my cadence and tone to the punctua…

By "we" I mean ~everybody, as the Gregorian date with year 1 as the (wrongly dated?) birthyear of Jesus Christ is the standard for most domains in international communication. >You…

Timekeeping is timeless. We count the number of orbits around the Sun from a specific guy's birthday 2000 years ago, our 12 months are named after rulers of an empire that hasn't e…

Have the CPU and the security chip derive their private keys from physical unclonable functions (to prevent extraction), let them exchange public keys once during manufacture, and …

>or other pressure on them Counterfeiting was a big worry as high-resolution color printers became cheap. They did it motu proprio just like today ~all AI gen services watermark th…

So markets can only be (perfectly) efficient or competitive, not both at the same time. Largely theoretical but it tracks common sense!

One in a million?

Right up until some kid named "Bobby Tiananmen" makes the whole database delete itself ;)

>foreigners are a bit more likely to be loyal to the government Yes, to their own government! Both China and USA have laws to force companies to insert backdoors. These laws have b…

They seem to have been granting contracts to manage all kinds of critical data to Huawei's Palantir equivalent lately, so it's probably less about security risks and more about the…

My guess would be it has nothing to do with email itself. Maybe it's some iCloud API that accepts obfuscated emails but returns the original email in the response, or an ID which c…

Take a look now.

Looks more advanced than simple pollarding. I have never seen this kind of straight, tall tree tops in Europe. If it exists I would like to know!

One could also blame crypto and AI (they're clearly responsible for some of the volatility in the graph), but I can see the curve flatten in the 2010s, just as Moore's law ended.

People who donated to OpenAI in its early years might disagree on that.

>They have the absolute simplest model for nuclear fission that I can imagine Agree. What I don't understand is: why has it never been done before? They can't possibly be the first…

I think everybody likes to be part of something big. I would definitely be proud of having worked on something so well-known. This feature is from a different time, though. The peo…

To add to this, C-section rates seem to be significantly higher in private hospitals, when compared to public hospitals.
