Also, in Chinese, the logogram might change depending on the gender: 他/她, he/she, also part of his/her

In this particular case, only "está" (instead of "es") is correct. Otherwise it means that the person is an active person, instead of meaning that at the present period of time, the person can be found active/online

I am pretty sure that it was meant "unintentionally". I would say that nobody has killed another person with a shovel unintentionally since shovels exist (maybe injure). OK maybe one since shovels exist /s

The first one is just the binary sum without carry (x xor y) and then adding the carries of that sum (x&y) shifted by 1 bit (2*(x&y)), still the addition of the carries can in turn produce carries, but that is taken care of by the n

The Power7 (2010) already had a very powerful prefetching engine (also programmable) able to detect a multitude of patterns/striding supporting even 12 different streams. Its design, composability and not only automatic detection but i

Fortunately, life-threatening, chronic, bankruptcy-inducing, rare-and-disabling conditions represent a relatively small portion of the total healthcare spending (removing the most widespread chronic conditions). Those are also the least pro

Air also has inelastic demand. It is just that it is too cheap (that doesn't mean that the producers make a good profit) to produce an enormous quantity of it (even though fresh food is perishable), so much, that even the US and the EU

Thanks for the comment! I was meaning the former (under debt). The intention of my comments was to make clear that in that regard, Switzerland is not an efficient free market private insurance paradise. There are lots of nuances to it, and

But another way in which Switzerland maintains its healthcare system with public money is through the -often deficitary- cantonal hospitals/clinics/health care centers (also helped at the municipal level)

I guess that you don't know that, for example, if you get operated of a congenital defect in Switzerland, the bill goes to the SVA instead of to your private insurance (and so on for specific cases) I am not conflating anything, you ha

Social insurance is covered by AHV/SVA/IV (funded by salary deductions and cover congenital defects, invalidity, some rehabilitation therapies and other non profitable coverage) and of course healthcare is not fully privatized as

Switzerland has very strictly and non-deniable obligatory minimum (very broad in coverage) insurance, with regulated yearly price adjustments and on top of that, publicly funded hospitals and clinics (mostly unprofitable but of high quality

If you are a non native English speaker you will notice shifts in how things are pronounced when put together, some of whiicht are just not written down, like pronouncing "a" as "ei" or "a" or "an" (t

There is a simple way around that argument; instead of getting some random (according to whatever distribution) characteristics, be bound to have higher probability of obtaining those characteristics you would be the least bound to be fair

I get your point, in fact, I don't put a lot of effort in getting things organized to any degree of "good". I "invest" in archiving (I almost never wipe a memory card, a floppy disk, or a hard disk, I just store it.

The value is not in how often one revisits the past, but on how important (and I mean from a personal point of view mostly) a billionth of that stored past might become in the future. If you can, why not?

A comment above states exactly the opposite.

I was not counting that as bilingualism.

by ggrrhh_ta 5y ago
Also of note, bilingualism/multilingualism is practically the norm across the world; monolingualism is almost an exception.

That's the best scenario; regardless of whether the event reaches the destination or not, in most cases (except continuous monitoring of some parameter which admits losses) the source still will keep the information or the way to gener

Raku/Perl6 grammars are quite nice (particularly if the have improved support for raw strings).

In that case, I would say that GPT's performance in arithmetic is something that we see because we are looking for it or want to find it but that is not there. It is an illusion. If we have no theory of why would it an arithmetic capab

I know I can be mistaken (I would never take any amount any way, finding out the true emergence of the arithmetic capabilities of the network would be a price that outweights any sum of money, even if I am enormously mistaken), but I want t

Sorry, I thought it was clear. A neural network, when untrained is just random noise that multiplies inputs by random weights over an over (+ normalization) until it reaches the output. When you train it with inputs whose outputs have are t

I pointed it out above; even though it is text, the ASCII representation is just a different base for the numbers - base 2^8 - ('325' is '3' * (2^32) + '2' * (2^16) + '5' * 2^8 = 51 * 2^32 + 50 * 2^16

by ggrrhh_ta 5y ago
Regardless of the base, be it text or encoded numbers, text, as encoded is just a different base of representing a number('325' is '3' * (2^32) + '2' * (2^16) + '5' * 2^8 = 51 * 2^32 + 50 * 2^16 + 53

The parent comment was talking about a video outside of the context of this entry in HN. My reply was in the context of parent comment referring to that video, the video in question provides excerpts of example of that failure of communicat

But her point stands even if there were mistakes: the press and many scientists, even if unwillingly, have failed to communicate the real state of fusion as an energy source. And I can believe that maybe some representatives did not fully u

by ggrrhh_ta 5y ago
Well, because it makes no sense to try to increase Q plasma; to what end? As pointed by others, you can increase Q plasma at the expense of Q total, thus precisely optimizing for the wrong objective (fusion can be produced and studied witho
