Do you know what is exactly proprietary in spanner? AFAIK most (all?) of the ideas existed before in the theoretical clock synchronization literature.

Thanks, this definition does seem problematic. In any case, it is not the only possible definition and in a/0=c, c does not have to be defined as a real number. We can define it as similarly to complex number with new rules that do not

"it becomes possible to "prove" that any number is equal to any other number." There are multiple ways to define what division by zero means. Which definition leads to this outcome? How?

the quote continues (loose translation): "There will be things that people will look at and say: 'they are new!', but these were here before us. Since forever." So, IMO the author did realize that there will be "new

hmmm... seems like you're reinventing distributed learning. merge-ability does exist and you can average the results.

I asked Bing's ChatGPT regarding your quote: "I’m sorry but I couldn’t find any relevant information about the quote you mentioned. It seems like it’s not a well-known quote. Could you please provide more context or details about

"The way one might phrase a question might be very different content wise from how the document describes the answer." You have late-interaction models, which replace the dot product with a few transformer layers and are able to l

I would credit this model for multiprocessing to LISP family (Scheme/Rackt/Clojure) before golang. (Probably someone else would mention an earlier references :)

I agree but currently there still quite a few bugs that force me to open jupyter directly. Eventually, I think there should be a better separation of concerns. IDEs should be IDEs and Jupiter notebook should be a thinner background service

Creating something in the scope of Jupiter is not trivial. You do have a few nodejs/typescript/javascript kernels that work fine, so I don't see the point for rewriting Jupiter in node specifically for any reason. In any case

The openAI brand is now recognized much beyond the circles that know anything about it. For most people it is "the chatGPT organization" and nothing more.

It can be useful, but the way they frame it is not clear to me. It is an overview and reference, which is indeed very important, but it is not the new paradigm they make it sound like. Btw, really not a low effort. I have invested time on t

Seems underwhelming to me. A bunch of useful ideas from computer science coupled together with mostly physics applications. The paper itself includes plenty of references, which demonstrate why their manifest is unnecessary. I don't ge

I do not believe TensorFlow is anywhere close to dying.

Thanks! Besides bounded variance they should also generally be independent. Or at least I'm not aware of a dependent variable version.

Can you elaborate / add reference?
