I guess when you have a software package named "Mathematica", mathematicians expect to be able to take their math and transliterate it easily. Making them specify the "Dot" function would irk them. I don't know the

Indeed. I think they're experimenting with moatless because a worse thing than people complaining about your language/software is people not using it at all.

Thank you! I think any competition is welcome for search engines, with Google going down the monetization path. A piece of feedback: When I select "Remove top ...." and click Submit, then click Next, the popularity filter is gone.

A permanent home/hobby license for Desktop costs $387, as far as I can tell. It only allows 4 cores being used, and for more you need to buy Core Extensions.

The reason I might find Mathematica interesting is its language, which I found to be on my popularity-brevity Pareto frontier. https://danuker.go.ro/programming-languages.html#non-math-ma... So, it can express an average Ro

I would assume the Transformer model would do that implicitly. The point of machine learning is to avoid expensive hand-crafted features. That said, you can find research of almost anything. See page 36 here (46th in the PDF): https:/

The wording definitely intrigued me, and I understood the implied "given current models". I think sparking curiosity is more important than catering to someone who is not the target audience of a university news article.

Profit can stay as cash, pay down debt, get reinvested by upping costs, or get paid out as dividends to the owners. Either way, the cash flow statement needs to reflect it, the book value of the company should reflect it, and the market val

Why implement coroutines when you have multithreading? Coroutines are to me a brain-twisty way to make the most out of a single core, because your language doesn't support multithreading. For example: JavaScript with a single thread in
