Given how GR is entrenched now, confirmed so many times, it's pretty clear we're at worst in presence of a Newton-degree of understanding: maybe not all of it , but certainly true within boundaries . Whatever lies 'after&

Honestly, even if the E8 lattice is nothing but imagination, it's so beautiful that we need to make a para-verse like that someday. You know, when we've mastered creating universes and stuff, at least when we're able to live

I agree with your principles. If it came to that, I'm pretty sure there would be a hard response by the worldwide body of developers and companies (especially the 80-90% of small businesses that make up rich economies; the biggest corp

My personal experience says two things: - illustration — whether drawings, gestures, animations, using objects, whatever works, but have a visual equivalent to 'translate' notation; the typical example would be fractions which are

IMHO this is measuring things with a rather ethnocentric view (your current place / culture / time in economy and history). Makes sense in your context, but not so much in today's China's. There is a massive (high eight-

There are distros targetting more specifically mainstream end-users, historically Mint and more recently Elementary (which does a fantastic albeit opinionated job with UI/UX, or so I hear). The problem of general adoption however is no

Consider both ways: even if you run 100% of your backend on-prems, a significant portion of your routes may go outside to reach roaming employees, remotes, maybe customers for some apps, etc. You likely have some Infrastructure-as-a-Servi

Everything you describe screams to me of choosing the wrong tool for the job. Go certainly isn't a general all-around fits-all tool, it's a rather specific and opinionated approach. It's almost a given than Go alone can'

Iirc also Lean Startup by Eric Ries —this is basically part of that— as well as The War of Art by Steven Pressfield (to some degree). It's also generally the motivation behind agile from a management standpoint. Definitely tons of lite

Sounds like a clear hit on some dark store. I mean, digital reputation is one of the most sought after 'commodity' these days, what with paid likes etc. This is next-level fake reviews! I wouldn't be surprised it's event

I wouldn't consider v0.30 "production ready", especially for a programming language. Breaking changes should be expected until they reach 1.0.

Well, count me in, no question about it. Information is the fourth pillar of democracy, and there's a direct qualitative relation from information to debate. We need such efforts to make substantial progress in producing information, t

My thoughts exactly. They've pulled off a Google or Facebook level of domination over their market, it's incredible for a rather old industry.

I'm still convinced we'll have "good enough" barebones yet spatially aware AR first. It's just less intensive on the front end side, which is the limiting factor now as I understand it. VR is a whole other thing, an

I'll say this: I'd prefer if the brightest minds approached the matter from the "AI safety" angle (a sub field concerned with building not just AI but "safe" AI, ie that we can control or understand in a practi

They probably mean that today will be referred to as 'yesterday' in the future. The sentence structure is ambivalent, though, it would work both ways. I think your interpretation is actually better, I'd have written 'tom

Basically, none that we need to be concerned with. The general idea is this: when you fuse elements, you produce heavier elements; if you wanted to fuse these new elements into even heavier ones, you'd need to input much more energy —

It depends. Technology became magic beyond our wildest dreams too, in many respects, when we take a second back to look at first principles, how far we've come. Part of that magic was age and personal disposition too, in addition to th

But it feels natural, too. The reality of our lives well before internet is that we don't speak the same topics, or not the same way, whether we're at work, or between close friends, or at home, or in public, etc. We have 'ci

Interesting, thanks for sharing! Do you think it would be viable using a pool of 'a few' residential connections (think fiber >500 Mbps upload) in each region, with some x86 server behind each to transcode / store? The ide

I see, points well taken. Python is great anyway, a language's intrinsic quality has nothing to do with whatever else the programming scene does. In my view it takes many languages to make a better software world, and while we don&#x27
