The EU has its warts. I'm not going to deny that. The EU parliament moving between Brussels and Strasbourg is indeed silly. Have you looked at the ridiculously long list of exceptions Britain had negotiated for their EU membership? The

Intuitively, I wouldn't expect a wrong answer to show up that easily if the network was overfitted to that particular input token sequence. The questions as I understand it is whether the network learned enough of a simulacrum of the c

Down voted for not actually countering the argument in question? The script doesn't alter the phrasing of the question itself. It just generates a randomized, irrelevant preamble.

That's because the incentives don't align between developers and users on OSS projects when they aren't catering to developers. There is no product management as a go-between that is tasked with understanding the user base an

There is some very limited value in copying a successful strategy. Once enough market participants follow along, the strategy starts to fail. Markets are erratic because of that dynamic.

This take is shortsighted on many levels. Coordination without a fixed framework to do it in creates kafkaeque negotiations where every involve party can fight tooth and nail for their pet rule or exception and everything slows down to a cr

No, it wouldn't work. The coordination and decision-making processes would be even slower than the EU's current glacial speed. In order to persevere, the European countries must coordinate quickly and act with decisiveness for the

I have never heard this claim specifically. But it is clear that the rapid east expansion of the EU still causes friction with the other goal of having a tighly integrated political and economic union. Some steps to strengthen the union may

Resellers of Clevo barebones offer a fair bit of flexibility to spec the system to order. It's not full freedom to mix and match, but still quite flexible. The price is that it is far less sleek, bulkier and heavier than most other lap

I can't remember whether it was Dell or Compaq that had non-standard power supply wiring in their PCs many, many years ago. This game isn't new.

Software that gives treatment instructions may be a medical device requiring FDA approval. You may be breaking the law if you give it to a medical professional without such approval.

I'm not a lawyer. But as I understand it, this is checked during the visa application process. The visa expires after a few years and requires another application for an extension then. So at least every few years, the salary would hav

How long ago was this? If it was long enough in the past, 120k might have been enough. If not, the employer simply broke the law.

It's nationalist, not racist. Passports and border controls are the practical foundation of all nationalism.

It doesn't quite work that way. H-1B employees need to have above average compensation or their field. This is part of the application process.

It's a little worse than that. Given two products that seem to do the same job on paper, the one with glossier marketing will win even if it is an unreliable pile of crap in practice.
677.
by gmueckl 2y ago
My utterly cynical take is that the way to win with software is to put as much money and effort into marketing and sales as possible and as little as possible into the actual product. Especially B2B seems to do this a lot in practice becaus

Access scales from being a one process all-in-one solution to multiple processes sharing the same database file and also to a separate ODBC-connected database engine with Access as a frontend. At least some 20 years ago, there was an assist

This. Access is a very powerful package to quickly slap down a structured data model with data entry forms and report generators. The benefit is that it automatically guarantees consistency in data entry and processing. Spreadsheets are not

What kind of messed-up logic is that? How many products do you think you own that contain hidden features that you're not supposed to know about? Just about everything with at least a microcontroller inside has extra software modules t

What makes you think that MB doesn't have the same capability, but they aren't willing to ship a half-arsed highly dangerous, people killing feature like some other companies do? Unlike any of their competitors, they assume full l

Looks like the generated wireframes are still terrible and would need to be redone by hand. So no need for artists to worry about their job security just yet.

This isn't solvable. Each loudspeaker and microphone has its own frequency response and will always measure the product of any two of them. This does not result in a unique solution for any single frequency response, even when you know

I don't even think you need to dress that person nicely. The film "Look who's back" had an actor in the role of Adolf Hitler talk to random people in the street in unscripted sequences. He readily pulled them over to his

And Russia is happily adding fuel to that fire. It's a divide and conquer strategy for them.

Dealerships in the US have become more brazen about that practice. They won't hide that they installed the device. Instead, they will upsell you on an anti-theft device. One dealer tried to sell one to me to the tune of 600$/year.

If you run many small tasks on the GPU, you can increase throughput by overlapping transfers and computation. There may also be other ways to batch problems together, but that depends on the algorithms. The one truly unfixable issue is roun

That argument stands on the mother of all slippery slopes! Just find a way to make your product mpressive or ubiquitous and all of a sudden it doesn't matter how much you break the law along the way? That's so insane I don't

It's because the energy sources, technical implementation and uses are so vastly different between the power grid, heating and transportation.

But this requires a legal framework that mandates such licenses and effective emforcement / procecution of violations. As far as I know, most countries are lagging behind when it comes to updating legislation to set binding rules aroun
