0.01% per day is not 3.65% per year. It's close, but that's not the correct way to combine probabilities. (If it were, flipping a coin twice would be guaranteed to produce a head because 50% + 50% = 100%) For calculating probabi

The comment about cyborg chess is spot on. This is why AI is more significant to Go than horses and cars are to running. It's easy for humans to build machines that enable them to travel faster than they could run, but it has zero impa

The codeword is to make it clear your words should be taken 100% seriously without considering the risk you are being coerced / spoofed with AI. If I agree on a word in advance with someone that no one could possibly guess and insert i

I want to reply as one of the people pushing the "actually, certificated is a word" line. I think perspective here is important. While anything that a speaker and hearer agree has meaning can be considered a word, there is defin

Whether something is a word or not is not binary. "Kdqroeisjxjdoeo" is most definitely not a word. "Dog" most definitely is. "Adorbs" is probably considered not a word by many. I say it is one. Language changes

You could get away with 7 if you're willing to switch calendars in the middle of the year. Buy one leap year calendar for each day of the week. If it's a leap year, use as normal. If it's not, on March 1, just switch to the c

I was mostly thinking about "Hello Firstname" and "Mr. Lastname". I know several people who, due to the commonness of their first name, go by their last name. For these people "Hello Lastname" is the correct in

Except you are assuming you can reliably make decisions about how a person's name should be used based on your classification scheme for names. First, your classification scheme will not cover all users (see the famous https:/&#x

Sounds like you're looking for Planck units. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_units I would suggest that Planck units scaled by powers of 2 is the closest we can get to a cosmic system of units. The choice of

I don't know if it will help you, but I find it helpful to consider the sheer number of flights that occur without incident. Worldwide, there are roughly 100000 commercial flights per day. That's a little more than 1 per second. W

Does anyone know if there is an alternative to Anki with a better web experience? My biggest hurdle in using Anki is working on computers on which I am unable to install software and the lack of quality support for the web version.

In a way, that's fine. You don't need to prosecute all offenders for a law to be useful. The law gives you some way to shut down bad operators which otherwise would be difficult to stop. Compare tax law. By law, anyone profiting f

Indeed. As upsetting as it may be to have ambiguity introduced into the terms of your domain, you're never going to stop it. Better to focus your efforts on what you can control: your own choice of terms. The term cryptography has alwa
