   There are cheating devices that simulate hands on the wheel. If FSD becomes good enough they could go from suicidal to popular. Regulators wouldn't be able to stop illegal aftermarket modifications for obvious reasons. I still think Wa

   You're not wrong, but I think part of point of storytelling is about connecting people with each other and creating a sense of community.

   I can imagine the possibility of the opposite happening. As we reach an economy of automation-based abundance, we might see a transition to a gift economy.

   Doesn't a multiple of 5 basically mean the market is seriously worried that the business will shrink / go bankrupt?

   Maybe you could go looking for a home for your function in some existing crate then?

   > I mean, I don't see why a beam of holes can't be focused just like a beam of electrons. Wouldn't electrons rush in to fill the holes from every direction, rather than just the intended one? That's what my intuition

   I think there might be a difference. From our experience with air we know that blowing and sucking are not quite the same. Blown air has a much greater capacity for direction than sucked air. I would assume that this is because the when we

   That apostrophe seems misplaced. Article is about (Eli) Lilly's Alzheimer drug.

    I'm surprised there is no mention of simd. Like I'm sure this is "fast enough" but if you want to make a really fast wc for fun wouldn't that be a natural direction?

    I don't think this isn't fully known. Neural science has long been a fascination of mine and the conclusion I've come to is that it can happen in two ways. The first is direct. In order for this to happen there must be a stab

    I think every mathematician are aware of both of those perspectives, and uses whichever is more convenient at the moment.

    I don't think this is exactly correct. Undefined behavior means a very specific thing - that the program could do literally anything. But I think that's not quite the situation in this case. Rather, I would suspect that these spec

    Complexity usually makes it easier to hide stuff. Especially if the thing you want to hide and the thing you want to hide it in are highly similar.

    Well the EU believes in the right to be forgotten right? That's the philosophical underpinning of it's pushing for privacy. This in contrast to the US that more comes from an angle of people resisting an evil government. That&#x27

    There are pros and cons to this. I wonder if the EU will come to regret chosing oblivion.

    Never seen inline assembly written quite like that, is this actually correct code? I'm concerned that normally register annotation is just a hint, and that the assembly blocks are not marked volatile - and that the compiler may therefo

    The answer people don't want to hear is that the answer is to abandon the web. The standards are too complicated and evolve too fast. It costs too much. The bills have to be paid and that means everyone has to sell the users out "

    I think that is unfair. The productivity per person in old projects like RollerCoaster Tycoon is impressive. But the overall result pales in comparison with modern games. Saying the field has stopped producing anything of real value is very

    You have to think about how your operations interact with other operations you might also do on the random state. Like what if you add one to the state, but someone else subtracts one from the state back to where you started, ooops! Or what

    In almost every respect I have a slight preference for the intel way (nasm dialect), but could live with the at&t one. But it's just ridiculous how mov eax, [edi + 8*ebx + 3] is written as mov 3(%edi,%ebx,8), %eax

    Fisher Yates is simple, fast and correct. The only area of improvement I can think of is reducing cache misses.

    I resent that every application needs its own special snowflake auth method. One uses a certain 2fa app. Another uses another 2fa app. Another uses emailed code. Another uses text code. Another uses special ssh keys. Another opens a prompt
