The way I read the article is that the ampersand became a de facto 27th letter, so "and per se and" meant "the letter &", wheres "and" meant "the word and".

Caveat, I have no experience in ML and a few parts of that article went over my head. However, this seems sensible for application specific ML models, as societal changes move the goalposts. My follow up question is: if a much more general

You could probably remove the OpenAI qualifier from this finding, but I guess it makes it more relevant.

To be clear I don’t use Elm in production so my thoughts are purely speculative. However, when you remove FFI to JS - in a language which is focussed around the web platform, which evolves pretty quickly - and you only have a handful of dev

This is definitely true in theory, but in my opinion isn’t so much of a problem in practice. If you expose APIs on your objects that don’t expose mutable methods (I.e. like the normalised method on Vec3 in the article) then you limit exposu

In terms of applying this to languages other than C++, as someone who’s relatively new (4 years) to Java I expected to see a lot more side effects in the Java I’ve worked with in that time. In fact, the opposite has been true, and much of t

Worth noting that SO comment calls out that the linked line points to the code as it was in 2013 and that there have been changes since then: > The link into the V8 source code above is pretty old (2013), so I tried to find the modern eq

It seems from reading the docs that the “semantic” side is important here. It can track things like redefinitions. E.g. const output = console.log; output(“hello”); This wouldn’t be caught by ESLint (to my knowledge) but would be caught by

I’d like to think that most employers that have spent the time and effort to make this work would have policies that cater for the cost of working from home, rather than just saying “you’re saving money on your commute, deal with it”; but t

Does this mean Genius can add a few non-breaking spaces to the lyrics, with a couple of odd unicode characters that look like periods and commas. I guess at some point it’d end up looking like a ReCaptcha and there’s enough of those already

I woke up this morning with this song in my head after listening to it a week ago and then playing it to my wife yesterday. I wonder how many brain-hours that song has consumed already ...

This is a difficult hypothesis to prove by virtue of the fact that if we didn't think people were feeling in certain ways this pre-FB, then it was presumably because we didn't have accurate data. It follows that if we didn't

That sounds like the definition of "path to profit" to me.

I just don’t understand why you’d put one of these on your house rather than a garage, outhouse, box. Or get things delivered to work or to a neighbour. There are some cases where this isn’t possible but I think you could spend the same m

I installed this yesterday for about 10 minutes to look around. The UI (which is the main reason for PSQL GUI!) is all over the place. I find Postico and Postgres.app perfectly sufficient for my PSQL needs. Postico feels quite similar to Se

I feel like unfollow / hide is perfect for this. I realise that in an ideal world us humans wouldn't click a button and we'd get the prefect endorphin-releasing content 24/7 but at the moment we have to make a bit of a

Is this a joke? SEO consultant at Google? Backlinks? It's just a simple way to give it context, and I barely noticed the links. Can't work out if this is a joke.

I don't see how functional programming would ever solve the problem of chronology. If the collision engine needs to know the new position in that frame then it needs to run that code first. You can't just run code whenever and e

While the claim about accessing the iPhone seems difficult to substantiate, the suggestion that the FBI have dropped the case seems likely. The fact that they can drop the case in this instance, when the wheels had started to come off, smac

That may all be true and I don't dispute the duration and the fact that it wouldn't be binding at this level. However, what the FBI need is something to get the ball rolling, the golden case that would set a precedent; that would

Unfortunately, this is much the same as virtually any broad examination process. I'm primarily thinking of schooling up to 16. There's a lot of work to be done in ironing out one-size-fits-all testing in a lot of areas, primarily

It requires the maintainer to do this. Often if the maintainer isn't maintaining the codebase then they won't be updating the readme either.
