You don't understand it because the mental model as presented by the statement is too simple. Money can make LOTS of people VERY happy, up to a certain point. Supposedly after 80k$, after you've been relieved of basic stresses lik

That model is too complicated for tiny minds. Just tell me when it will be done, man!

What is an example of a person for whom this is terrible advice? I can only jokingly think of people who are naturally hostile or low on EQ. "They can't handle all this!" kind of people.

Do you attribute your learning the most to the live coding? If so, what was it about it that helped you?

Is there a name for this field? I guess it is all rate limited by the amount of data that can be categorized and visualized in this way, which feels very specific. But I love it.

As with all questions like this, it's a fundamental misunderstanding of what this is optimizing for. It's only "the worst" from one perspective. But it is optimal for another. The tension is not realizing that difference

Scala. It really opened my mind up to what I was missing, as a recovering Perl programmer. Perl folk tend to think their shit doesn't stick. But it's the Blub Paradox in full effect. Types matter. Functional programming matters. A

I've always been under the impression that consciousness is actually a bunch of brain activity competing for attention and that one thing at a time is selected/blessed to be the highlight of one's attention. The addition of d

Probably they did the math and found that that feature wasn't delivering enough value or cost too much to maintain. In comparison, Release Radar is an easy win; all the ML is already there.

I think it's to help illustrate the time dimension as going forward rather than something that goes up and down. And also to not measure the hills against some global X-axis. It is confusing.

There are three things this seems to do. And what's changed is the perceived value of these. 1) Increased mining rate. Although there's a prescribed "maximum", as I understand it adding more workers, up to some limit, do

This feels more impressive since in SC2 you can pilot many units while in Dota you only (generally) have one. And Deepmind is playing (albeit a slightly older) stock StarCraft II while OpenAI had to play using a very weird ruleset (invulner

This is actually a great question. Like what does it mean for a unit to be cloaked? If humans can, under ideal circumstances, see cloaked units... Maybe the only mechanic that shows up (like for bots or an API) is the inability to be target
