Surely the light from the sun is a much more damaging? Not to mention computer screens have existed for decades in some form now. I understand the connection with sleep, but Im not sure how much it really damages the eyes compared to other

I also initially thought the same thing. Page two of "Parallel and Concurrent programming in Haskell" maybe says it in a nicer way: >A parallel program is one that uses a multiplicity of computational hardware .... >concurre

Division by zero can certainly be given meaning in other mathematical contexts. The real projective line is one example [0]. There are other algebraic structures in ring theory that also have a division by zero, for example a ring with only

A homomorphism between two sets preserves relations between elements. A set with a single operation (plus some extra properties) is called a group. The integers with addition (+) is an example of a group. Suppose I have groups X and Y. Then

There are already lots of 'practical' applications in the literature. A famous one is Shor's factorisation algorithm. But there are others - everything from doing pagerank to simulating other quantum systems. Many classical

I visited USTC several years ago, (2014) and in this time they have basically doubled the number of qubits they can entangle, so this is a great step forward. At around ~100 qubits quantum computing becomes very useful, so maybe we won'

I think they roughly define what reasoning is. Deducing something from abstract information. I don't think they have really captured that with this work. They generated some data according to some rules and fed it to a recurrent neural

Frankly, I doubt that neural networks can "reason" in an abstract way. Correct me if I am wrong but it looks like you got what you ordinarily except from a neural network. The network was successfully trained to pick out certain p
