    You have to first prove that p is not undecidable. This is not being done in many proof by contra-positive based proofs in mathematics. First prove that p is not undecidable is not…

    Proof by Contrapositive Is Wrong

    Proof by contrapositive is wrong. There is a true, false and undecidable case also. Let me explain how it works. p. =>. q. does not necessarily imply not q ==> not p. There are thr…

    They are living in some very tiny house. Housing is the highest expenditure present. I calculated the rates for 111 square meters.

    I calculated the living expenses and savings ratio for every country that has an Amazon SDE 2 role on levels.fyi. For instance, for food I used the Big Mac Index, and got data from…

    IMO : If it's on private property, whoever owns the property. If it's on public property then the government.

    Or the other paranoid conspiracy theory interpretation is that the CIA wanted to call it Bird mode to avoid freaking out people. See https://pando.com/2015/07/01/cia-foia-google-ke…

    sed is already Turing-complete ( https://catonmat.net/proof-that-sed-is-turing-complete ). I'm not sure how what you are proposing is any better than sed. I said math envy since yo…

    I would say it's a place where people who spend a lot of time on the internet try to gain status by posting comments which they expect to be upvoted.

    Abstraction is useful when the resulting code is logically simpler, much like say category theory makes certain results in algebraic topology seem obvious. Perhaps, you simply mean…

    Don't be ridiculous, dude. No compiler is actually compiling to PCMPISTRI. It's meant to be used directly as assembly. Of course I could be wrong. If you do know of any open-source…

    Lol, my comment was restricted to SIMD, which definitely does not take 10 minutes. Secondly, no mainstream compiler actually compiles code to the PCMPISTRI instruction. Presumably …

    It may be black magic now, but people are working on making the black magic something lesser mortals don't have to worry about (eg: https://theory.stanford.edu/~aiken/publications/…

    Yes. Deep Learning definitely needs a new programming language. Uber's Pyro is worth checking out. ( https://eng.uber.com/pyro/ )

    Don't be ridiculous. It's better for technical books to be freely available for everyone to read. Think about it, it is more optimal for the world in the long run.

    Of course, Palantir is behind this. Someone should really start putting checks on Silicon Valley executives, especially Peter Thiel.

    In general, the FDA over-regulates rather than under regulates. A comment is too short to summarize the reasons why, but I would refer interested people to Eliezer Yudkowsky's Inad…
