When the companies are the same type of business, it is called horizontal consolidation, not vertical integration. Vertical integration is a company buying its supplier or its customer.

C Corp is a legal entity classification, along the lines of S Corp, LLC, partnership, and sole proprietorship. What might be confusing is that S corps can use pass-through taxation or retained earnings (C Corp) depending on what the owners

One situation I found where AWS saves money is in over-capacity situations. If the a company builds a data center that is too large, they are incurring costs for under-utilization. Paying a 50% premium on 100% of resources might still be

As an aside, you should generally avoid grid search in favor of random search or an evolutionary algorithm. Grid search can waste your time budget on likely bad combinations of hyperparameters instead of looking for combinations local to or

Tangentially related, I recommend learning and getting certified in Lean Six Sigma. It's PM * stats * MBA. The systems analysis / theory of constraints perspective also completely explains why agile falls short in the face of exte

The report should show what you are working on, where you are spending your time, etc. It is about time spent more than achievements per se. It can alert your senior that you need training on a particular task that is taking too much time o

Please share. I would definitely be interested in reading it.

While I think Rust would be s good choice, the project could benefit from a rewrite even in the same language.

I don't believe AlphaGo's MCTS, policy NN, or value NN support your last paragraph. Could you please explain what it is about Somehow construction that supports strategic categories with associated probabilities or why only tactic

The idea of a super-human strong AI is really just anthropomorphizing computer programs. The only realistic way this could occur is by emulating or uploading a human mind.

I don't understand your statement that AlphaGo doesn't have strategic considerations. Its neural networks evaluate positions for strength, including long-term (strategic) potential.

Anecdotes are stories, not data points. 100 stories don't become 100 data points.

Thank you. I really appreciate the information.

I'm hoping for matrix/tensor primitives, like Fortran. Rust might be a good replacement. The C interop would also be useful for Fortran interop. What do you mean about industrial processing? PLCs?

Would studying it be helpful if I wanted to create a static analysis application on top of an existing procedural language?
81.
by bmh100 9y ago
Something related to functional programming, databases, data analysis, dev methodology, or system architecture. I use a procedural language in my job, but this doesn't seem relevant to it. My degree isn't in CS, if that helps.

What topics would the T3X source be well suited to teach?
83.
by bmh100 9y ago
What could it teach? Compiler design? Imperative language design? By "bootstrapping", are you referring to building a higher-level language that compiles to T3X?

”I want to expose a local server behind a NAT or firewall to the internet.” This is genius. It immediately simply told me exactly what your and service does. A few common, short examples beneath that would also be great. I would see this be

I mean this earnestly (no snark): why should I care about T3X? I know that I'm missing the obvious reasons.

I think that's not quite the whole picture. We also make judgments about the consciousness of others, and those judgments are based at least partially on physical criteria. Think about judgments of consciousness regarding those suspect

I prefer the term "conjecture based on deductive reasoning." It is reasonable to presume that something is theoretically possible unless we have specific evidence that it is impossible. For example, even though it is impossible to

by bmh100 9y ago
I must disagree. Skepticism, moral epistemology, the origin of reality, etc., are metaphysical concepts. Consciousness, in its various definitions, clearly has physical descriptions and criteria. Once consensus is reached about a definition

But that says nothing about whether there is a constant penalty being applied.

One of the big gains they still have to make IIRC is providing partial compilation. That will be significant with the good developer practice of breaking source code into multiple files.
