A recent disassembly of, I think the same code. https://github.com/option8/Altair-BASIC/blob/master/BASIC%20... I checked in a few places at the start and towards the end (the sin function) and they matc

It's interesting that this antibacterial molecule is created by a bacteria. So there's one bacteria that's resistant I guess. But maybe that's not a concerning type of bacteria but I hear that bacteria can transfer trait

Why would people take performance enhancing drugs, why would you drink coffee, why would people use AI even when it's banned? It's all about getting ahead in a competitive environment. Games are just as 'real' as the rea

It's hard to take that linked video seriously with the host sequence poorly lit and color graded in that awful blue / orange film cliche.

I guess you can justify it by saying starship lightning design has changed over the years hehe. Look at all this bright light fixtures on the bridge of the older ship!

There was one cashier who also bagged at a local supermarket who was the mythical 10x bagger. I'm not joking when I say they were a virtuoso at scanning and bagging and I would always line up in their line just to witness it again and

A big difference is that the jr. dev is learning compared to the AI who is stuck at whatever competence was baked in from the factory. You might be more patient with the jr if you saw positive signs that the handholding was paying off.

Boomers is anyone 60 or older right now - not just 70+ That being said, Boomer has evolved to mean anyone older, established and conservative. Like the counterculture saying from the past, don't trust anyone over 30.

How do the great engineering orgs that ship impactful stuff organize / run a major project?

Interesting that something similar came up recently where an AI being trained might fake alignment with training goals.

This blog post sings to me. Well done. I remember the time a colleague effectively used A* as the optimizer for the AI's plans in 2 player game. Indeed it really can be purposed for a lot of different things!

It's actually they don't want us to see the AI coding.
