US students are expected to be able to read 104 characters by the end of 6th grade. While Chinese students are expected to be able to read 20k words by that time. Characters in Chi…

Current models are lossy databases at this point. Carmack looks like he might be trying to get logical reasoning to work (learning something abstract in one context and applying it…

You know what’s more fun than having a bad junior write crap code while you point out their mistakes? Writing good code yourself.

None of those listed jobs is actually unskilled labor. Driving a big truck around narrow roads is a skill most don’t have, doing it at speed and running up and down to actually mov…

How do we guarantee "T3 submitted at T+300ns" reads the rows that are committed by T1 and T2 at T+100ns and T+200ns? I guess the answer is that the minimum transaction time for con…

This article misses the most important reason to not use Serverless: Cost. It's way more expensive to run serverless than it is to run any other format, even something like AWS Far…
