We have a makefile and: sudo make it creates an executable. Its slightly tricky in that the whole make process can only happen on a single thread, so you have to turn off all parallel threads during make - so we have a key on many functio

Oh thats interesting!, we don't use that but use tail recursion extensively https://0branch.com/notes/tco-cl.html#sec-2-2

I haven't looked at trying and don't really have time to, so I don't know, but with lisp, you can make anything fast as a general rule, very very fast. (at least with compiled sbcl)

If you make it tail recursive, its insanely fast in common lisp. (sbcl)

We basically build a space/time model of the world, where systems are performing functions in events that take input states and change them into output states such that those events either causally trigger each other or the causal link

The math library we use is incredibly fast with quaternion matrix transformations: https://github.com/cbaggers/rtg-math/ The only gaps we've had with our production code and lisp is PDF (we use the java pdfbo

Hmm, they say a small number of users. Seems to be my whole team in the US and Oslo cant reach slack, so maybe more than a few. "A small number of users may be experiencing trouble connecting to Slack"

Separating things into bounded contexts sounds like specifically not connecting them, which means not understanding how they connect or even trying. And its these bounded things that seem to cause the biggest issues later on when their act

This principle is a key flaw in the idea: "A complex domain can not be efficiently expressed as a single universal model and language, and must therefore be separated into Bounded Contexts (ie. an internally consistent language and mod

To equate a concept with a symbol, not sure how you do that. For sure you use a symbol to represent an instance of a concept or a concept, like the words in this sentence when you convert them to the concepts in your mind you understand th

You mean the approach using symbols or combining symbols with ml?

by gibsonf1 5y ago
What makes us humans intelligent and able to learn so quickly is our reasoning faculty especially our conceptual reasoning capabilities. There is no intelligence and learning without that, just sophisticated ml/dl pattern matching &#x

Wow, ok, very interesting. It must be something about my particular environment (Also on Ubuntu) that it only affects google sites.

Ahh, I'm on firefox - wonder why its only there? Oh wait, I think that's even worse. This is the case for all google sites, if you use firefox, back button is disabled. Maybe this is to worsen the user experience for Firefox and

I have to say, the fact that google disables the back button once you hit the link above is truly infuriating.

How many predictions not coming true, and there have been so many, will it take for people to become skeptical of these kinds of predictions?

What puzzles me is how Altman and others thinks that there is any intelligence in ML as they are pursuing it with pattern matching. And how pattern matching as being pursued with ML could ever give any intelligence or general intelligence
