GP, correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe the idea is an open source GTIN dataset. I have no answer, but am also curious now.

You know how in a typical REPL, you’ll make use of the up arrow to repeat a previously executed expression? Dyalog allows you to click on the previously printed expression, modify it in place and when you hit enter, it’ll evaluate as if ent

It appears the only overlapping feature of that truck is small size. A Kei truck is a work truck not an “urban adventure vehicle.” Ditch the crew cab and lower the height of the bed and you’re starting to enter the same territory.

I am of the opinion that what you are suggesting is correct. You don’t want a programmatic copyright because you want the copyright to reflect the date created as that when the right begins, and it continues from there without need for refr

Hold your horses, APL[1] is not dead yet. However, at some point in its history, APL did gain the ability to assign the Index Origin[2] to 0 if the problem called for it via: ⎕IO←0 0: intentionally started the indexes from 1 ;) 1:

Feels strange to say, but while looking at those XSL files I’m thinking: that looks really good. I cut my teeth on HTML5 and JSON APIs from 2010 and beyond, so I never really had to work with XML. I’ve never felt wholly comfortable with the

Wow! I just blocked Reddit at the router and that did the trick. HN is probably next, but every now and then there is a neat article about APL or Forth that I’m happy to have seen. I suppose I could just block the comments.

Why would the AIs spit out code? I think the point of the article is that they'll spit out black boxes full of weights that can be used to compute anything ala the universal approximation theorem. You'll train a neural net for a g
