I'm not sure this is enough. If you classify all old white men as Republican you can have 69% accuracy. I'd even argue the more such factors you control the less it means something.

Not really, the dispatching between experts happen for every word and every layer, so you can't easily isolate distinct models.

Nice observation, maybe they just use one of those round magnetic USB-c connector everywhere. (That doesn't fix the data format, but it's a start ^^)

If people want to look at what a good RTS on mobile could be, look at Command and Conquer Rivals. They team add a lot of good ideas IMHO, even though the game suffers from micro transactions (good luck to newcomers). In particular: * they h

Parental leave is about more than just money. It's about to leave your work for 3-4 months in a row. Employers tend to hand out cash rather than time away.

This is how I'd love my OS to work. I don't know why every program has to have it's own editor inside it. I'd love to always type text in the same tool, with the same keybindings. It would open so much doors like the one

I don't think Mercurial is patch based. Pijul is more similar to Darcs. They claim to have a sounder and faster patch algorithm. And Anu is apparently even sounder and faster? https://pijul.org/manual/why_pijul.htm

My uderstanding is that they wanted to change the algorithm and that the codebase needed a major refactoring. I think there was performance issues with the first implementation and design so they had to make very large change. https:

Ergodox pioneered the genre of ortho split keyboard, but I don't think its the best in 2020. Minidox, Redox, Iris, Corn, Gergo all have better thumb clusters and are more compact.
