I meant save the stock MSFT from dipping, obviously it’s not going to crash and burn but I’m sure a 5% dip is possible.

Wait, this guy really landed an AI lead job in a few hours ? Edit: Ok seems to be a joke account. I guess I’m getting old.

It's also funny when you put this in the context of the whole Israel situation, as if most Israeli Jews are somehow "woke"? Come on dude, that shit doesn't fly in Israel.

So isn’t it just a problem of measurement then? Say you had a massive array of billions of perfect sensors in different locations, and had all the computing power to process this data, would an N year daily forecast then be a solved problem

Beyond the difficulty of running calculations (or even accurately measuring the current state), is there a reason to believe weather is unpredictable? I would imagine we probably have a solid mathematical model of how weather behaves, so gi

If you enjoyed Control (and don’t forget the DLCs!) you will probably also enjoy Alan Wake 2 which is part of the same universe and interconnected with it. (I never played the first Alan Wake but it’s not a hard requirement, there are recap

At some point in every declarative language’s life, so many features get bolted on to make it useful that it loses its declarative nature, at which point you might as well just use a more standard imperative language. In this case, just pla

Saudi and Jordan have intercepted a few of these drones heading to Israel. Arab twitter is raging. Neither likes Hamas and Saudi definitely isn’t a fan of the Houthis. It’s funny how several decades ago Israel was seen as the #1 enemy of th

Never thought I would witness a war between Israel and Yemen. Fought in space, no less.

Few things to consider: 1. The rockets and drones are supplied to Yemen by Iran. Which also supplies rockets and drones to Russia. 2. Russia wasn’t really what it was claiming to be, and it certainly isn’t anymore. 3. Russia is (in theory)

Turing basically defined it 70+ years ago. Of course our ability to distinguish between AI and humans improves as AI evolves. It becomes more sophisticated, and so do we. 10 years ago GPT4 probably would have passed the Turing test.

This seems to be still incomplete, there were a couple of people murdered in Netivot in the rocket barrage, which are not marked on this map. Plus I think they're still recovering bodies. Also: it doesn't seem to be the exact loca

It's not all or nothing, there are in-between approaches. For example you can write your portable app in Node.js (with or without containerization) and push it to a "serverless" PaaS, without running your own linux machine or
