Seems whenever someone popularizes a rule of thumb, expressed in a catchy way, some newbies will take it as inviolable absolute law that everything else must be bent around, at any cost.

Hmmm, 64 bits happens to work out as around 19.27 decimal digits. Maybe there's a connection here, although due to the nature of digits 19.27 effectively means up to 20 digits.

The name Kanerva rings a bell, the 1st edition of the RL book mentions "Kanerva coding" as an option for function approximation. What you tell sounds interesting, maybe I should look a bit deeper into his work.

Your counterexample isn't one. It's a made-up, incoherent mess, that doesn't show in any way what you claim it does. That starts with the incomplete definition of the law itself, which is part of a single sentence that you pa

Um, there's not a whole lot of economic laws that are less controversial than the law of diminishing marginal utility. I'll give you a rough outline. If you own a good G, that you could use to satisfy either a desire D1, or a comp

Predictable only insofar as it has to follow some simple rules. For example, if you own a good G, that you could use to satisfy either a desire D1, or a competing desire D2, you will choose to use G to satisfy the greater one of these two d

The law of diminishing marginal utility for example can be logically proven using this method. Alas, knowing it won't make you rich, the world is not that simple.

You can for example use it to give hints to the compiler that allows for optimisations, that it couldn't do otherwise. Described e.g. here https://web.archive.org/web/20160508051118/http://blog.regeh

Maybe a bigger company could do it like some card games decide on who will choose the game: Make several teams "bid" on the contract, the one with the best bid gets it, but winning the game (e.g. getting bonuses) depends on if the

Yeah, the comparison would be okay-ish for the old ones, which where about 1m^3 in volume, just big and flat instead of cubes. The new V2 are ~5x the weight @2k8 pounds, the V2 Mini ~3x @1k8 pounds.
