2023: Google is doomed. They're not building AI. No wonder the "Attention" authors left. Google just sat on this. Their PMs are steering them into oblivion. OpenAI is winning while…

This IS AI. What's with the comment flagging?

This Wikipedia article has a review of several evolutionary aging theories: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution_of_ageing None of these has been proven or widely accepted, and …

I don't think this is correct. I've never heard of any evidence for pro-aging genes, but I have read molecular biology rebuttals against this theory (Stephen Jay Gould or perhaps t…

Diamonds aren't worth much because they're actually not that rare. The only reason they command the price they do now is because of the De Beers cartel. The "diamond alternative" m…

This feels like a straw man argument against static typing. No statically typed language I use suffers from this because they have great data structures and generics. Languages suc…

This is uncannily similar to my own personal experience with ADHD. Instead of words appearing scrambled, though, my focus during reading is drawn to random words within a text. I m…

I'm singling out your post because of how "scripting language"-weighted it is. (Minus Swift.) Ruby makes for a pretty slow server side language. It's appropriate when moving fast, …

1. Rust - Low level systems programming. It has a ways to go, but it is so pleasant to write. In reality this has started to replace my usage of C++. 2. Javascript - Both a scripti…

Do you happen to have this one to five pages of QM equations somewhere as reference? I would be very interested in reading that.

I do this rather frequently by mistake. I, like you, try to point out my error so the OP doesn't wonder why they are being downvoted. Another problem is that I often upvote article…

ipilimumab, *-umab; hUman Monoclonal Ab (antibody) These aren't cheap to mass produce. Edit: Not the best source I could find, but this cites costs (not at scale) : http://www.immu…

How does this address the problem of not saving user-submitted data after informing them you've done precisely that? This seems _very_ bad. I think we're debating the merits of dif…

Does anyone else wish tmux were modal like vim, ie. without a "leader" key? My conf file has a ton of custom key bindings for window / pane management, and I'd love for them to go …

I'm not a hypochondriac, I swear, but this really hits home. I have medically diagnosed ADHD; seemingly contrary to the disorder, I often find myself getting stuck daydreaming for …

I have never used Yahoo pipes, but I found IFTTT to be quite limited when I tried it earlier this year. There are no booleans, pipeline control, arguments, scheduling, reuse, etc. …

I find this style wholly garish. Thank you for giving me the vocabulary to describe it. Mid-century modernism is whimsical, busy, distracting. More than anything, it belongs to our…

I wasn't born in that era, yet I am immediately conscious of the style being described. I think this is owed to both the cultural preservation afforded by film and photography as w…

No. I described at a high level just one of the mechanisms of adaptive immunity--one of the most incredible biological systems in my opinion. (Runtime metaheuristics search!) These…

This is not how Type I hypersensitivity works. Epitope recognition is powered by a biological RNG (somatic hypermutation) and evolves at runtime via the process of somatic / V(D)J …
