But they can't be used over the internet without permission. It could be argued that this requires permission as well since there will be 'know your customer' laws that surround buying and selling them, but to what extent the

That's too vague. You can't just handwave and say 'better food' and 'junk food'. For decades junk food was thought by many as food with lots of fat instead of lots of sugar.

What I mean by that is many fast food companies like KFC have already switched away from using trans fats and no one noticed.

The real question is how many comments will end up here talking about how they want the choice to eat whatever they want, not realizing that trans fats are nothing more than a preservative and don't affect taste.

If automation is being used, the amount of objects being dealt with is probably minimal to begin with. One thing that is overlooked is that it isn't just a learning advantage that people have over a robotic arm, there is way more input

Who are these people that are designing systems that have terabytes of heap under a single GC, but still want/expect/need low pause times. I would think if there were processes that needed consistent latency you would isolate them

There are already speed runs and 100% speed runs that have the input sequence to run through a game, I think that most of the vast majority of games wouldn't need any machine learning at all to map the screens that need to be glued tog

That makes sense. Is it really so complex that there needs to be a licensed technology?

No crypto currency that I know of has succeeded based on the utility of their proof of work algorithm producing something useful. Only proof of work algorithms in service of the currency itself have made an impact.

I think it depends on what the dependency actually is. Here it is expected that you would include this header. When someone does a python one liner that just calls a library or something that relies on boost, the point is lost for anyone ho

First, those render times sound hugely inflated to me. Second, this is apple and oranges. Just look at 'ray tracing' is simple and naive. Pixar uses their own renderer, PRman, which has been developed over multiple decades. Ther

This architecture is made to match software threads to (logical) hardware threads, then have them loop over data separated into chunks that don't depend on each other. If a function is blocking, needs the CPU and isn't thread safe

What is strange about pre-ordering hardware that might initially be in short supply? Pre-orders don't make sense in the case of downloadable games, where there is no scarcity.

> Default allocator settings can call malloc/mmap a lot, and is sensitive to latency on those calls. Under host memory bandwidth pressure, BEAM can grind to a halt. Tuning BEAM's allocator settings is imperative to avoid this.
