With a perfectly working dating system, there is no need to have or want relationships, because you can just find other person using the dating system. You simply no longer see the person because you like to interact and have sex and do act

They select on looks because that's all they have on dating sites. People (especially women in mainstream society) mostly ignore looks when they have already had a real-life pleasant interaction; however, it is very challenging to repl

That you can select people that don't care about looks, which is generally a signal for someone who is more experienced, socially sophisticated and emotionally intelligent than average, and more likely to give you a pleasant experience

This is awesome, please make it succeed if possible. Dating sites are simply horrible at actually creating awesome interaction, and one of the first reason is the fact that obviously looks are pretty much irrelevant for that, yet most seem

It's very useful for non-monogamous people: you meet someone, have a good interaction, sex, etc. and write a good reference for them. The problem though is that there's an incentive to game the system.

Why isn't it enough to retrofit all past and future models with enough hardware redundancy and create a properly written MCAS software? Wasn't the design sound, except for the lack of hardware sensor redundancy and naively written

I think declaring bankruptcy is the only legal option in general, although refunding the price paid might be fine as well in some cases. Of course you could also have made a promise with a provision for what happens in case you want to back

Doesn't this sort of movement cause a lot of wear on the tires, thus making it unsuitable for routine use?

The problem of Scala is that it is outclassed by Rust and Kotlin at its two niches of, respectively, "best designed programming language" and "better Java on the JVM". Scala can't beat Rust because you can't ha

If the target was just "Windows 3.1", he should have built a 32-bit app using the Win32s API [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Win32s ] It's also probably possible to use a current compiler, maybe clang or g

This is true, but the issue I was concerned about is that memorizing datasets is not fun, so games should be designed so that dataset memorization provides no advantage, so that competitive players aren't forced to waste their life mem

Maybe they could consider applying more reasonable pricing? E.g. Hetzner offers an 8-core 128GB Xeon SkyLake machine with unlimited 1gbps traffic for around $120/month while Google offers n1-highmem-8 with 8 cores and 52GB and no traff

Probably the ISP, since it already has a working business model unrelated to selling your DNS query data and doing so is probably illegal in several countries.

All you need is a method to compute the first white move that produces a significantly better win rate than thinking about it during the match, and then memorizing them becomes advantageous, if doing so is feasible. It doesn't have to

Just run the most sophisticated chess engines available 960 times and publish the results. Even if not the "best" in an absolute sense, the moves those engines find are going to better than the move that an human comes up on the s

by devit 7y ago
I think no-castling just generates a different opening theory, and Chess960's 960 starting positions are also not enough: it should be possible to memorize at least the best white move for each of the 960 positions, and probably the ma

The problem of this is that it doesn't have a notion of "world state" other than the text of the latest interactions, so you can do anything but it feels like nothing matters. Fixing that seems very hard though.

How about the obvious solution of not having ANY data transfer out? Encrypt and sign the data via NaCL or similar, send via UDP duplicated 5-10 times, no response at all from the server (it's analytics, it doesn't matter if very f

The actual effect might not correspond to the stated goal. For instance, it may be applied to "protect the people currently in power in the country" instead of "protect the [people living in the] country". Business surve

It's interesting that it seems that some very short propositions require very long proofs. Are there any results on the length (or maybe Kolmogorov complexity) of the shortest proof for provable propositions of length N? (in a specific

Regarding the data policy, is the reason that the risk of someone leaking information is now being perceived as higher than in the past? If so, why? Have there been leaks? Is there a plan to hire a bunch of new less vetted employees? Or may

Not explaining is a bad idea, since it means that people who disagree have no chance to be convinced or even understand the motives if not convinced, so they are much less likely to effectively cooperate with the new course. Instead, explai

It's not a terrible hack, it's just 32-bit virtual addresses with a larger physical address space. It only caused problems because some kernels used to expect that all physical memory is mapped at all times (and some hardware coul

It should be used when you can prove that the error never happens, although unfortunately the compiler can't check that.

Testing with mocks is generally a bad idea; instead, one should just test using the same dependencies that are used in production (after testing those dependencies, if also part of the project). This avoids having to introduce the extra int
