    The FIFA-planned game schedule is also surprising. Argentina have not had to face a single 'big' contender through the tournament, until now.

    By 'advance' I meant 'a further exploration', moving on to something new, not necessarily better. But it seems like we're just going back to a previous time.

    I don't disagree you should improve your skills. but I don't think your app is optimized for that. But, ok you're the gamemaker, then well done building something, and I hope peopl…

    We've got used to 'reasonable' society and politics in the last few centuries, but check out politics in developing nations or dictatorships, or woke, or Trump or places like pagea…

    Then just show them the watch, or look at your phone or whatever. How often do you need the exact time, and don't have a means to get it, like in tv broadcasting etc?

    lol, this completely misses the point of analogue watches or clocks. It should be called 'keypad data entry game' instead. The point of an analogue clock is that it gives you an in…

    Semple's humorous long-form performance art, pillorying Kapoor, while developing a menagerie of new pigments, is much more interesting than Kapoor's sculptures. Anyone could have m…

    It actually does work for a whole range of things. Is it a panacea? Of course not, but it is potentially a sustainable business. Except - open models are barely months away from th…

    The whole idea of a 'sovereign' data center is that it is under your control and jurisdiction, and you can protect it. Iceland is not an EU member, and is remote. What happens if T…

    The first example only tells me that the energy is dependent on your frame of reference, since the collision seen from the train appears to have more energy than the head-on collis…

    Surely the roots, if we skip over the early preceptron work', are in backpropagation and Hinton, and the work going on at Edinburgh and elsewhere in the 80s. Indeed I remember buyi…

    It is a leadership role though. I don't know how many staff there are, but it's surely one of EH's most important locations.

    I agree, the table-cloth is rubber.

    IMHO, as an analogy, matter is not 'a bowling-ball on a mattress', but more like a scrunched-up section of table-cloth. Tiny knots or whirlpools of space-time/quantum fields, diffe…

    This seems like a similar argument to the Chinese Room. There is certainly something missing from current models before we could call them conscious. They need to operate continuou…
