considering he leads a research group at Harvard that publishes in high profile journals, you could actually look at the peer reviewed research, instead of relying on your "hunch"

programming languages is pretty theoretical. Or at least if taught from a logic and lamba calculus view point. I suppose it could be systems if you are building a compiler or vm, but that to me is different that programming languages.

honest question, but is factorio not a similar itch to programming? I always feel with these type of games, that my time would be better spent working on a personal software project, where i get reasonably similar enjoyment, more satisfacti

id rather have someone with one year repeated 5 times than someone with just one year. Those aren't equivalent

you are replying to a sarcastic comment that agrees with you..

The article is about stop signs. My point and this discussion are about it is not just, "always follow traffic laws exactly, at all times."

by gmadsen 5y ago
again, you are removing all nuance. It is not an issue of "bad drivers", it is an issue of local driving norms. If every single driver is doing something, it is not an issue of removing bad drivers. if you are driving under 70 mph

even this reply is framing it like it sounds ridiculous. I'm not sure if this stop sign incident is the best example, but look into all the reports of the waymo vehicle causing road rage due to its "safety-first" driving.

Sometimes it is more dangerous to follow traffic laws exactly rather than normal human driver when you are surrounded by normal human drivers. It's not as simple as you are making it seem.

I wouldn't say that, it is a mix of masters/phd. the robotics department is quite new, the overall curriculum is pretty rigorous mathematically, but also a lot of lab work. this is more of a catch all to make sure everyone is able

Id say by leaps and bounds DH software in companies needs to be as easy to explain as possible to the widest audience. very few people have a firm understanding of exponential maps

Just want to point out, this is a graduate course(although 1st year). Many students taking it are phd students, who at Michigan can do quite theoretical research. Its not uncommon to take graduate math and cs courses as an engineering phd a

I believe most implementations do not do that. That could lead to a disincentive for work, since you would need to make the entire amount of the ubi payment before your labor is benefiting you. It is usually a flat rate for everyone, no mat

did you use dummit and foote? I took undergrad algebra like 10 years ago and was thinking of trying to work through that book.

what, my six year old memories seem to strongly disagree with this. like an itchy rash all over your head

I feel like this could be good for some people and very bad for others. Good luck getting a 50% increase with a new job when your salary history is available.

is it though? I've heard the argument, but to me it still makes sense as it is used colloquially. It is a discrete jump forward, thus if you are not talking about electrons and just the latin definition can be an arbitrary sized quanta

maybe it can be worded nicer, but this attitude seems myopic. Business people need to do business. Accounting does not operate on the swe/self declared tech artisan mindset of taking offense to any questions regarding timelines. just g

at a certain size, it is inevitable. you could not have a horizontal spunky start up land on the moon in the 60s. It is too complex and too much information to possibly transmit to everyone. There are distinct issues and hard problems at ea

unless it is required by law, such as ITAR projects, a company intentionally siloing information from groups would be a huge red flag. I understand that with a company the size of Apple, that becomes a liability, and maybe thats why I prefe

as someone who is considering switching to a management role, what has been your experience as a prior developer, and now coming back, do you feel like you have lost any "edge" being an IC? Also what new perspectives have carried

I'm beginning to think this is an intentional tactic made in bad faith. Criticisms of the CCP are not criticisms of Chinese people. This was used two years ago regarding the cover up by the CCP of the Wuhan Lab. Direct parallels can be

ive had to break down and at least have a windows vm. ive picked up making music as a hobby and all the various production and plugin-in software is a no go with linux. Same with VR related things. I would love to get a mac, but unfortunate

I would assume he is talking about the US. I would think computer parts are also more expensive in Estonia, not just PS5

it distributes the cost across all sectors, which as the above poster commented would be beneficial to hiring low skill workers

I don't think that was the question? It was how to not overload hospitals and create a safer environment for those in the population most at risk. Thus healthy young adults getting vaccinated to reduce the rate of spread

sure to some extent. But I'm sure "good at iq tests" is also a good measure of other things. "Intelligence" is a bit of a loaded word, but it wouldn't be surprising for example if a group scoring >90% on iq
