Has anyone that identifies as having aphantasia here been able to improve their ability to visualize imagery?

No way... really? I think I fall under aphantasia, but I never realized people could potentially relive memories like that.

I wonder if it would ever make sense for technical debt to be recognized via accounting.

Technically correct, but only because TPUs aren't for sale. H100s cost like 30,000 USD, if you can even get one.

How many people are out there buying H100s for their personal use?

Fwiw I liked Civ 5 more, maybe give that one a go over Civ 6 if you haven't.

It looks like the profile they're build on already supports those, I think the intention here is to present a sort of at a glance view that could be quickly analyzed.

Have you read Snow Crash?

While it doesn't help much with the costs of replication, Spanner can be configured with read only replicas that don't participate in voting for commits, so they don't impact the quorum latency. Reads can then be done with di

Could sufficient water ever end up there for a self sustaining cycle of evaportion and precipitation to develop?

I tried to do this a number of years ago. My advice? Give up and use a generated PDF.

Hm, wouldn't you want to set it up to route traffic preferentially to a nearby location?

I think where this would get confusing is that a positive number would have to decrease some accounts, but increase others, right?

You could pay someone California's minimum wage 24/7 for 140,000 a year.

Traffic within a data center is relatively cheap, is it not? Of course, I think managed network proxies tend to be expensive, but I think that mostly comes from the machine costs, not the network itself. You pay a bit of a tax for network s

You can imagine some ominously humorous implementations of this. Red dot laser for pointing out people?

I don't think it's radical that when prompted with something like "Generate photos of doctors", that it's reasonable to return a set of images that shows diversity (e.g., instead of being a bunch of white men), even

Electrical carriers could be forced to be to sell capacity at the market price.

Mutation testing is enabled at at least some of the large tech companies, though I don't know how widely.

While I'm not a practicing economist, I have a bachelor's degree in economics and took multiple classes on the economics of electricity markets. While all of those are certainly relevant if you're comparing nuclear and other

With such a small difference, the burden of proof in this case is probably on the person arguing that it is a big difference, since you'd generally expect a roughly linear relationship between these. In fact, I think I'd suspect t

by foota 3y ago
It does. And no, it's not that significant. I'm not a nuclear fanboy (well, I wish I made sense since I like the idea of free energy, but renewables are just as good), but I think it's important to make accurate arguments.

by foota 3y ago
Is a 15% difference that much of a different story?

by foota 3y ago
I'm not trying to anthropomorphize the model, but it's not hard to imagine that a model would attribute significance to something completely out of context, and hence "focus" on it when computing attention. Another possi

Interestingly, there's a decent chance I'd remember if there was an out of context passage saying "the password is FooBar". I wonder if it would be better to test with minor edits? E.g., "what color shirt was X wear

Sure, you should understand how your html will render, but expressing logic and handlers etc., in the html is just painful to me.

Cost and culture? I don't know that most 20 year intel employees in Beaverton are going to be willing to do night shifts.

I could help but wonder while reading this how everyone involved would feel if the "last step" involving the papyrologists was automated as well.
