    I disagree, wood pellets are more expensive than oil for energy, especially if only counting the production cost of oil w/o the tax. So even the first time an old forest is cut, wh…

    Per abstract, the effect is stronger in poor regions (precisely "across five levels of social deprivation"). They did control for affluence.

    Yes, and libraries pay for that access. They also don't obfuscate the origin or remove the advertising. Don't equate libraries with what OpenAI does.

    Quitting implies there is a problem, the authors even state so. But is it really¹? I'm quite sure "Over 90% of college students quit college within a decade". They graduate. Should…

    Every tenured professor is expected to have at very least one PhD student. A PhD takes on average less than 8 years and a tenure more than 20. Though I think a more reasonable repl…

    Wouldn't the compiler optimize (x-y)!=0 to x!=y? Seems like a good optimisation to me and one probably in accordance to the C standard. It would also make it impossible to have a d…

    It is a neat game. With a bit of trying you can find some patterns: * Every tile has two orientations 0 and 180 degrees which allows to cut a lot of possibilities for small fields.…

    They are trained to duplicate, we just hope they do so by abstracting patterns. Various techniques stack the deck to make it difficult to memorize everything but it still happens e…

    You have an urn of 50 red and 50 green balls. Roll a die and add a red ball for every pip. What is the probability of the next ball you take being red? I say both can be a question…

    So? There's plenty of problem statements with irrelevant data. Children are also getting taught to determine which is relevant in class. But also, it's not irrelevant because for t…

    Watch out. Because your bits are indexed you have a different problem than before. The first red ball does not give you a significant bit. Instead: Make a sample and now you know t…

    OIDC/oAuth seems like the solution: make it somebody else's problem. But OIDC tokens can be stolen, they can change domains because of misconfiguration or bad redirect urls.

    Because you may have meant --f=oo or -f -o -o, both of which are standard unix interpretations of single-dash multi-character flags (e.g. ls, ssh). Or maybe the newest version adde…

    Please just make the block-list a plain-text human-readable file. That way I can update the file when a new torrent website is convicted and black-listed.

    Unless you have a contract stating the non-collection of PII, the you can wash your hands. OTOH, it's just as easy to be willfully blind about that.
