Not to discount power efficiency, but is anyone that's buying a Max worried about paying for an extra 30W of power usage?

Kafka doesn't have a way to assert stream version on event write, which is critical for CQRS. Without it, you can't guarantee stream state when processing a command without resorting to a singleton/locks which does not scale

I'm only okay with this if we also force employers to reimburse commute.

As long as you're able to assert event version on write (and fail if the expected stream version is wrong), you're already ahead of Kafka on event sourcing capability.

Cultural appropriation is a very real thing, but the line between disrespectful/mocking and genuinely participating in a different culture can get gray. Unfortunately sometimes people take this understanding to the extreme.

Why not? All a deep neural network is doing is progressive data transformations into something more abstract and meaningful to later layers.

The reality is that 70-90% of a CPU is SRAM (cache and registers), and only a small portion is actual logic and even that is replicated across multiple cores. Factor in the extremely redundant gpu on the SoC with its own cores and SRAM alon

The brain communicates with itself, so deep layers are equivalent to sections of the brain talking to each other. The only relevance white matter depth has is with regard to how it's trained, and since it doesn't use gradient desc

The difference is that there's no possible model for this kind of hypothetical phenomena, it's by definition undefined behavior. Imagine a universe where the formula 𝜏=rF would just randomly be violated for no absolutely no reason

by Salgat 3y ago
In this case though there'd be nothing to learn, since math couldn't explain this phenomena.
581.
by Salgat 3y ago
I think it's more just the fact that our universe seems to fit extremely rigid, unbreakable rules definable by math. If we lived in a simulation for example, you could have phenomena that "break" these rules at any given time

This is why I use chatgpt as a type of Google. It's like a stackoverflow almost; generally useful but sometimes the person is wrong, but it helps me get leads.

To add, if you have a model that's too large for the dataset, you end up in a situation where it just memorizes the training dataset and performs poorly on the test data. That's why GPT works so good, you only pass the training da

It's a real shame that AMD didn't embrace HSA for the long term, it's the future of computing. Intel's QuickSync is very popular with certain folks for streaming, and HSA would have taken that a step further.

Some of these "bailouts" make sense. In 2008 these "bailouts" were loans that were paid back in interest. The COVID stimulus was given to everyone below a certain income threshold, so it was effectively a progressive tax

I think one exciting side-effect of that is that investment in autonomy would go insane. We're talking countries devoting large portions of their GDP to eliminating menial labor. As of now autonomy has to compete with human labor which

It could be as simple as just creating a special fork block that contains a sequence of every old block's new hash.

Exactly. Lower prices will appeal to corps and folks who can pay in cash long before anyone else can afford the same price.

They would get migrated before it became an issue. And even if it happened, they'd just fork it with a quantum resistant encryption at the point of first known attack.

The extremely simplistic design allows for rapid development of games, along with a very visually simple interface for young children to use. There's a reason Roblox looks like Duplo blocks.

Now that the RPi 5 exposes a PCIe interface, I have a feeling we're going to see a lot more folks adopting it as a NAS.

Genuinely curious, why does it matter if a relationship is real if the person is happy and mentally healthy? Is a chatbot that talks like a genuinely real person that bad of a thing? (assuming it doesn't tell you go to kill yourself fo

If someone points a loaded gun to your baby's head but you never notice, is your baby really a victim of assault? In both situations it's irrelevant if you never knew, you were still exposed to a massive amount of risk, making you

It's similar to if you provided insurance to someone and happily accepted payments knowing you could never actually pay out their insurance claim. The person making payments is a victim even if he never realizes it.

A separate invalidation stream sounds like a really bad idea and is asking for race conditions. Just put the invalidation events on the same stream with the information necessary to revert the original transaction (such as the balance to re

The primary funds for the development of the Model S was a government loan for renewable technologies. That loan plus interest was paid back.

That goes for any new lineup. It cost Tesla roughly half a billion to get their Model S to production, but at $48B profit over the past two years, I'm sure it's just the cost of business for Ford to enter a rapidly growing market.

F-150 Lightning has no transmission and uses vastly simpler motors instead of an engine. The drive train is also a lot simpler.
