I looked at the slices from each position to the end. Now for every name (“one”, “1”, “two”, …) check slice.startswith(name). After I pulled out first and last from results array. Two nested for loops, program all included was under twenty

Microsoft’s “request for external license” form is one page long, and has a “how much would this company cost to acquire” section. Or so I’ve heard.

A curious person finds treasures in one of three rooms they searched. Obviously they should have ignored the other two from the get go. I think Newton was curious about everything around him, and a lot of it paid off.

I think most high-school educated adults, with the ability to make a couple web searches, would do fine on all these questions. It would take the humans minutes instead of seconds because they don't have the internet memorized. Me, Kub

Stores with no nearby workers won’t spontaneously fail. But the situation is symptomatic of a precarious labor/housing equilibrium. In this precarious system, stores are likely to be toppled by external forces (Covid), and have farther

If the people working at a store can’t afford any apartment within a forty minute commute the store will fail.

Related, is there a high quality plaintext dictionary file for running similar searches? I’ve spent several hours but couldn’t find one that’s both comprehensive and accurate.

I’ve seen impressive demos with just LLM direct to SQL. Can’t wait to see what people build with these new tools.

For Amazon, if we consider everything for website retail purchases, I would estimate tens of thousands of table schemas. This is counting: - Sellers (Amazon, third party, retail store) - Inventory (forecasting, recommendation) - Customers

1) Add "calls to account creation" to un-logged in view. Annoying but fine. 2) Use an algorithmic feed and not a chronological one. Bad. 3) Clear up internal replies structure. Good. 4) Show you content from people you aren't

Standard speed cube method uses 9 “looks” each followed by an optimized algorithm. This development (1LLL) combines the final two looks (each normally requires choosing one of roughly 40 unique algorithms ) into one monster step with 4000.

These problems are fixable. Use blind bidding, and ban spoofing by preventing order cancellation within a bucket. Too many orders? Set a per-client limit. Most of this is improvable with software. As other commenters point out, the resistan

How about forcing public markets to bucket trades within say 2 second windows, executing best matches at the end of each period. Low friction and reduces value of millisecond latency advantages.

Explosion in indie animated series. Going to go from $15-$20 million for a season of an animated show (requiring industry buy-in, expectation of profit, etc.) to something 2-3 people can make as a passion project in a year. As with indie ga

Key element is probably less technology, and more social/political/religious unity. You need a stable and egalitarian social fabric to make consistent progress. Core beliefs: rebooting civilization is hard but will make everything
