Alpha Centauri is only 4.2 light years away. 0.25c is definitely enough to reach it. You could even do a round trip in only your adult years.

I doubt Waymo would publicly talk about this if it did happen. I also doubt the IP is worth that much. Most of the secret sauce to starting a competitor probably isn't an end model tuned for a specific configuration of a car but the ab

Having since read more about the author I'm pretty sure you're right the novel was earnest, but honestly it read as excellent satire when I didn't know it wasn't meant to be (and I read it prior to seeing the movie). Wou

I'm reading "situation" as "engaged in the occupation of networking, but it's not a job" in the above... but yeah that's one part of why it's an overly charitable reading.

Reading more charitably than is likely deserved, it could be "his background and situation (of knowing tons of rich people who might also put funds into this)"

Less than a billion of dollars to become the arbiter of truth probably sounds like a great deal to the well off dictatorial powers of the world. So long as models can be trained to have a bias (and it's hard to see that going away) I&#

I've always thought of the NDP as being pretty firmly to the left of the liberals - with labour movements, democratic socialism, welfare, etc being pretty much the defining features of what I consider to be the left and core tenets of

Life in Canada would no doubt deprove drastically. The loss of healthcare. The loss of language rights. The loss of the right not to be harassed and gassed by secret police. Etc.

If Russia had the means to invade Canada and hold territory they might try it. They don't. It's not even within the realm of possibility. It's absurdist fantasy to imagine otherwise. Their military is simply far too weak and

I got a remarkable 2 roughly when it was released and as far as I can tell the company never supported third party devs. They gave you root access but no relevant source code... Really quite disappointing, the device could have been a lot

The MP representing the NDP in this matter is also the MP who represents Canada's northernmost territory (Nunavut). They are clear on who the adversary is, like almost all Canadians are, it is the US. No one else is threatening our ter

Carney is the prime minister of Canada. The NDP is the farther left party in Canada.

Not as trivially as the forwards direction, unsurprisingly information is lost, but better than you might expect. See for example https://arxiv.org/pdf/2405.15012

RAM having binary sizing is a perfectly good reason for hard drives having binary sized sectors (more efficient swap, memory maps, etc), which in turn justifies all of hard disks being sized in binary.

Form support is touted on the homepage: https://www.getgrist.com/forms/ For what it's worth, which isn't much because this is probably outdated: I remember trying grist a few years ago and leaving mildly unim

I read the exceptions as a grant of additional rights to mattermost's copyright (but not to third parties), I don't think that conflicts. I'm not sure that they actually granted a GPL license at all though. I could see this d

I'm not saying CC doesn't have issues and curious design decisions - but your terminal should only be rendering (at most) a single window of characters every frame no matter what. CC shouldn't be capable of making that take 1

Compressing information in AGENTS.md makes a ton of sense, but why are they measuring their context in bytes and not tokens!?

That sounds like an issue with your terminal more than an issue with CC...

The claim here isn't that the technology can't, but that the people using it chose to use it to not. Equivalent to the person with a hammer who chose to smash the 2x4 into pieces instead of driving a nail into it.

Comparing against stockfish isn't fair. That's comparing against enormous amounts of compute spent experimenting with strategies, training neutral nets, etc. It will lose so badly there will be no point in the comparison. Besides

Neither actually... It was an anti trans/kiwi farms brigade... The Torvalds dispute probably came about in part because of defensive behavior triggered this brigade but was really unrelated.
