In 2004, I wrote a short story about exactly this in high school. Using neural networks to "mind read" visual images from an fMRI scan of a brain. I thought it was farfetched, but look where we are now!

I would love if self-driving car pedestrian-, and intent- detection algorithms were deployed at traffic lights to understand when there's a person wanting to cross and automatically change the lights for them. I don't know how we

I'm pretty sure 50ms latency between click and feedback is imperceptible to most humans. That's 3 frames at 60fps. I don't know what superhuman perception you have, but I'm personally good with anything up to 100ms. The

Why does the hover effect not happen if I hover the ▼ part of the button though? It makes it seem like icon and the ▼ do different things.

If you know A and B, and you know C, then you know the diff from A to C.

I don't see how there is any room for opinion. If you read the article, it opens with an example where it is impossible to determine the correct merge from the given information without diff3.

Yes I completely understand that it's not about adding type checking in the browser. My complaint is about adding type parsing in the browser. When I say "run typescript on the browser", I mean running code written in typescr

I don't see the point. This proposal only goes halfway and large swathes of syntax (like enums) will not be supported. So it doesn't achieve its stated goal of letting you run Typescript in the browser. The cost is making all JS e

It's free in the same way that stealing is a way to get things for free. When you pay for petrol for example, the money you pay goes to the oil extractors, refiners, distributors, etc. for the transfer of oil from the ground to your ca

Stacked diffs is Facebook terminology for diffbased CLs (Google). Except Facebook has invested a lot of tooling into it to make it possible without many of the downsides (see the comments here about 10+ diffs stacked on top of each other).

The "stacked diff" workflow means each diff lands as a separate squashed commit on master, even you click Ship Stack to land all of them in one CI run. This has advantages for code archaeology reasons.

by exclipy 5y ago
But you can't amend a commit without destroying the old version of it. Stacked diffs run in two dimensions. In one dimension is the stack of diffs -- logical incremental changes to the code, which make sense to code historians from the

Did you read any of that code? I looked at mooncatparser and it just hardcodes all possible 2-bit art as a big string array constant at the top of the JS file. Definitely not "on the blockchain". The part that's stored on the
