I think even more difficult than making it affordable will be making it reliable . OK-Robot says it has has a 1/3 failure rate, and takes ~20x as long as a human, at which point you might as well do the task yourself. I'd want th

FTA: JavaScript's built-in JSON implementation is limited to the range and precision of a double. Obviously, not all int64 values are representable in float64 (double).

The optimist's gambler's fallacy says luck is a constant attribute of an individual, and if someone gets lucky they are more likely to have a high luck stat and thus be more lucky in the future. The pessimist's gambler's

This seems less like a CSS framework and more like an article theme. Maybe I misunderstand the common definition of "CSS framework".

It can still be complicated by many things. Some parts of a module may not work well in lower precision and need to be in higher precision. If you ever create new tensors within the forward pass, you need to manually adjust your code to aut

Maybe I got lucky, but I am quite happy with the desk I got from wayfair a couple years ago. It may not be fancy, but it's sturdy, durable, customizable, and probably less than half the cost of a high-end solid hardwood desk.

The losers are the middle class who want something 2x the price and 2x the quality, not 10x the price and 3x the quality.

Anecdote about older folks not staying abreast of the latest: A few years ago, I was being interviewed by a programmer far my senior (in both experience and age). I have my github link on my resume, and the interviewer noticed and asked &qu

The way I would summarize it is that you can't just be correct, you need to be more correct than other people.

80% of HN links are not interesting to me, I'm just on here for the remaining 20%. I assume others are similar.

They may not be able to feel the difference between notes, especially in the higher frequencies, but they can still feel the percussion, bass, etc. They can still dance to the same beat as everyone else even if their eyes are closed. They c

For me copilot is mildly helpful 10% of the time when coding, but writing code take up such a small amount of my time that it doesn't make a measurable difference overall.

I agree with your distinction between AI and AGI. Hasn't ML failed to produce AGI, but been wildly successful in producing AI?

Good point, I wasn't thinking and I equated ratios and fractions. That should make the 80/20 rule even less related to the 1:5 matter ratio?
440.
by hatthew 3y ago
Could you elaborate on how this is related? To me, the 80/20 rule and the 1:5 matter ratio seem like entirely separate concepts that coincidentally share the same ratio.

If you ask a computer to compute (1/x) + 10^(-googolplex), it'll look an awful lot like the limit is 0.

Can you define what you mean by "AI" here? I strongly disagree with your sentiment, but perhaps you and me have different ideas of what counts as AI.

Agree, I clicked on a few 5x5s and too many of the clues required knowledge that I simply _don't have_. Very cool concept though, I have some experience with cubing but none of the theory behind it, and this is an easier space to deriv

I was going to disagree, but after experimentation it seems like the non-LLM search in google maps already does a pretty good job of handling vague searches more complicated than keyword matching

Based on the context of your first comment I thought you were trying to argue that the environment isn't really in trouble. If you agree that humans are negatively impacting the environment, that's good enough for me :)

I had hoped that my point was clear without too much elaboration, and that you were joining this discussion in good faith. My understanding: At the moment, climate projections are that within the next few centuries we will reach temperature

That xkcd is not demonstrating the amount of warming, it is demonstrating the velocity of warming. Historic temperatures on a time scale of millions of years are completely irrelevant to the current discussion of climate change, unless you
