America operates on a strong executive common law system not whatever system you are imagining. I took business law more than a decade ago and the professor basically said do what you want (money wise) if you can pay for it. This is the Eng

England's 'democracy' is cool insofar as the freemasons are cool. Old men in goofy hats sound fun until they end up raping some kid on an island somewhere in their old colonial posessions.

Ah yes, the country whose supreme court struck down its global tariffs and then forced the federal government into refunding all the money back is truly no longer bound by its own laws.

> Because people who believe things like that have to twist around their worldview to such an extreme that its impossible for them to be competent no matter how smart or how much education they have. Extremely well said

Math literacy needs to become standard for computer scientists. These takes are so bad

I mean, no they cannot be viewed at any point once encrypted unless you have the key. That's the point. Even the intermediate steps are random gibberish unless you have the key

3 lines of code that may need to change is much more complex than a macro that signals intent.

Without defining what 'actuality' is, then there's no meaning to 'the Schrodinger equation holds in actuality'. In their own way, all interpretations of quantum mechanics claim the Schrodinger equation holds in &#x2

Many worlds is not the Schrodinger equation. No I don't think this is many worlds. The decision is made uniquely and then is amplified.

To be totally frank, Islam is the odd one out. You can call it 'Western' values or 'Christian' values or whatever in order to make it seem chauvinistic all you want, but the simple truth is that these values are often sh

Funny, I looked into quantum computing and came away knowing pretty well how to use a future quantum computer. The math is pretty straightforward and useful. Now, getting an actual quantum computer with error correction that is scalable...

I'm not sure why you're okay with matrices but not the complex numbers. The complex numbers are a particular kind of matrix. Matrices and vector spaces (especially beyond the normal 3 dimensions) are even more mysterious. Complex

I think the claim is this: the wave function never collapses. However, the effect of the wave function on the environment quickly converges to only one of the two states. We could not know the difference because we cannot directly observe

I'm not sure that's true. Randomness has a well-defined meaning for me: unable to be computed by a finite program. The vast majority of real numbers are thus composed of truly random digits. Suppose the universe has a constant tha

Most Americans would. No fan of Trump but he is the duly elected president of the United States and has not done anything particularly egregious.

I would personally like some quantification of how good this is compared to just replacing the system prompt of an off the shelf 8B parameter language model. The suppression bit is very powerful. I would like to see a quantification of how

I have consistently held that solar will replace oil once solar becomes cheap. Literally you cannot beat the market. This is not revisionist. It's simply true. The same thing holds America back from barbarism. Our material wealth is wh

Weakly typed, but strongly kinded. It is a strict requirement that all theorem provers have a notion of type. This is by contradiction. Suppose you had a weakly typed theorem language L. Suppose you have a definition D of set in this weakly

That's because that type of code is actually better performing than the dynamic dispatch. There's absolutely nothing wrong with this code. It's just that it's not as extensible It's a 'closed world' repres

This is the standard type class approach. Haskell does the same thing.
