It was incredibly helpful to me though. Now I feel like maybe I could actually grok quantum computing.

Pretty much this. I'm learning Godot and love almost everything about it over Unity... except that its IDE doesn't have a vim-mode, which is ALMOST a deal-breaker.

I'm a part time contractor so I work fewer hours, but yeah i totally get you. I'm at least as productive working fewer hours from home than more hours in the office.

I'll chime in there. Same experience. I've got a nice office upstairs away from everyone. I do two things every single day, all day, in that room by myself, and it feels amazing. I do my work for a few hours, and then I hack on a

I saw that you were hacking on... Haskell..? In that video? Where does Haskell fit in with Godot and Simula?

That was a superb article. Really sublime stuff.

Definitely. Though less and less as time goes on. Journalling, as with any art form, is part of a process of pealing off layers of yourself until only your truth remains. Each time you journal you'll reveal a little bit more, and when

Quite a bold claim. Care to give reasoning?

I don't think it's as black-and-white as government bad private sector good. People do bad things and we've been trying to fix our selves for a long time now. We need to take personal responsibility for our own actions, and b

Countries die and are reborn as new countries. The USA is a child of England. Countries definitely do reproduce, usually on a longer cycle than that of the humans that make them up.

Cool, that's a start. Another implication is that you're a lot older and you've experienced a lot more than you identify with at the moment in the span of time identifying as this human system. I won't give you more than

This is really cool. At first I thought they were simulating entire living genomes in software, but then realized no, they're just simulating cellular shapes and manually performing surgery on living stem cells when they transfer the s

What you have are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and a few other pieces of earth, water, and air that are dancing around each other in a very complex way in order to dance up a very complex experience that has interesting properties that the sno

> The first big leap is considering experience to be a continuum from humans down to inorganic matter. This is stretching the meaning of 'experience'. If I walk on snow, does it experience deformation, or does it just deform? T

It's very short. Go for it. Personally it's one of my least favorite short stories by Lovecraft and it's amusing to me that Cthulhu became so wrapped up in popular culture when there are many far more interesting beasties in

When somebody speaks of a foreign country they're already abstracting millions of people into one being. It's especially humorous when emotion is applied to the foreign mass. "China is upset about XYZ". Just as there is

I'm pretty sure that I'm just a curve trying to fit what it means to survive as a human.

This is kinda just what libraries like pytorch and tensorflow make easy. Architecting neural networks at a higher level and gluing them together.

You can connect your Quest to a compatible PC and play this.

He's comparing it using your own logic. The "fault" you found was that the design itself was fault. He showed that the inherent design of both the Boeing 747 and Starship both have that same "fault" regardless of ho

That's also a conspiracy theory... A conspiracy theory is just a theory that a group is conspiring without the knowledge of others. In this case, the conspiring group is the one faking the death.

The only thing in your statement that provides evidence of instability is your arbitrary inclusion of the adjective "desperately" to describe China's actions. All governments work towards stability in their own ways. I don&#x

I actually did notice that, but I decided to say cyberpunk anyways because I related more to that term.

by Lambdanaut 7y ago
Well it wouldn't be cyberpunk without breaking a few rules.

I would love to read a book from you. That was beautiful, touching, and imminently relatable.

There were multiple fair metrics given for it being the best. Maybe it means scooters aren't the ideal form-factor for this service.

You should know it's VERY common for people to freak out on cannabis but not psychedelics. I'm one of those people. I have to be careful around cannabis but as long as I'm in a safe place I can take psychedelics with virtual

Yeah like honestly, pretty much anyone that's had them and didn't have a freakout can tell you that
