    I'm also interested in how they figured out how to get the CMA-ES baseline to be this fast (less than 35 samples in Figure 5). Maybe they are warm-starting CMA-ES with a pre-traine…

    Isn't all the "knowledge" just text files? I've transitioned between services easily by simply copying the text files.

    Progress towards what? Do you think "progress" as conceived by sillicon valley billionaires aligns with the type of life you would like? There's a non-trivial chance "working hard"…

    This has great UX, congrats! There's quite a few jazz things that are missing. E.g., altered and bebop scales, 7#9 and 7b9 chords. Plus, for any given chord, there are a lot of voi…

    You don't need every programmer to leverage the architecture for the market to accept it, just a few that hyper-optimize an implementation to a highly valuable problem (e.g., ads o…

    I was running i3 on Arch before. Then, I moved to Gnome Shell and have been daily driving COSMIC for a couple months. I think you will like it. At least on Alpha there were a coupl…

    AntennaPod is so great. I have hundreds of hours. It's even available on F-Droid.

    Take a look at language tool. It's pretty good in my experience. I'm not a native speaker, though. (this post was not checked with languagetool)

    In that case they wouldn't be a viable alternative, would they. A train can go 500+ km/h, and with good planning they don't have to cost 10x, so you're premise does not stand.

    This looks very cool! Happy to see genetic programming receiving more attention in the last few years.
