A lot of people smarter than me think it is supported by MWI. Max Tegmark, for example wrote about this in Our Mathematical Universe[1]. No "teleportation" is required, you simply aren't observing the universes in which you d

I think you can prove Many Worlds Interpretation correct for yourself. You do the Schrödinger's cat thing on yourself. If MWI is correct, you'll observe yourself surviving indefinitely even if every second there is a 50% chance de

They spoke to this point in the abstract. They observe a similar drop in less common and more advanced questions.

I think this is more about a drop in questions, than a drop in answers.

Why did you prefer this to DeskPad? I haven't tried either but have been looking for a solution for this without knowing it.

What has changed that makes the idea out-dated? You can argue that it was always unhelpful but I can't see how it could be out-dated. You're correct that the theorem doesn't address latency requirements. There are all kinds o

Can BigDecimal tell me which currency a monetary value is denominated in?

The theory has nothing to do with what the client knows. It’s only concerned with the server’s responses.

The formal definition for Available is given in TFA.

I agree it sounds really compelling that those three names are involved, but as mentioned they could just be influences that motivated that particular pseudonym. It would be hard for three people to keep such a secret.

Yes exactly, and you shouldn't complain that Numpy isn't directly available to perl and grep. I think we're in agreement.

Its nonsense. They interoperate just as well as any other programs in UNIX. You can pipe stdin to them, pipe their output to other programs, or invoke the shell or other programs. The fact that they have libraries that don't require in

My point was more that just because humans are terrible at something doesn't mean ChatGPT can't be much worse.

Mauritius already has an ISO 3166 code "MU" and matching ccTLD ".mu". "IO" isn't going to be a standard code. Its far from a foregone conclusion that ".io" will exist 10 years from now.

Similar to the way in which software developers are terrible at delivering quality software on-time and on-budget, so I suppose ChatGPT has already reached human level performance on this task!

Sometimes, I'm sure. But is it really that surprising that exercising your mind may feel good afterward in a similar way to exercising your body?

Is it possible you have not used ChatGPT recently?

BOA doesn't train the vast, vast majority of its workforce on mainframe systems these days. No one working in a branch or call center is looking at green screens anymore. The mainframe systems are simply used as back-ends connected thr

I think the moat that COBOL developers have is not just their knowledge of the language, but knowledge of the mainframe programming and operating environment. Its just so alien to developers familiar with Windows/Linux, and there is re

Its true in the US; its mandated by law that they comply.

That's actually a really good application of AI, because the quality of the content is meaningless as long as it hits the bullet points. They only do this to check a box that training on <topic> was done.

But that is not how research works in Academia. They have to follow the bleeding edge of the field, or they may be doing work of their own that is already irrelevant. They will not wait until a consortium of insurance companies and underwri

If it is possible to advance your career by publishing uninsured research then we've just renamed the problem, although I do like the idea of adding this structure. Eventually there could be so much of it that it would become an accept

That is like saying my insurance company has to follow me around for a week while I drive before they can underwrite a policy. If there is money to be made, and money to be lost, the actuaries will find a way. The problem could be, that it

Not only are there billions of dollars wasted, there are many, many lives wasted. If the billions had gone in a direction that was actually promising, maybe there would be treatments that would have saved millions of person-years of quality

100 years ago there were literally people selling snake oil as medicine. There have always been soft rubes to fleece. What changed is our society decided there should be limits to that, and could afford to do something about it so now we ha

Apple makes a lot of revenue from addictive games, but do they have employees working on or marketing those games?

Because people provide that work without acknowledging it was created by a RNG, representing it as their own and implying some of level of assurance that it is actually true.

That is not relevant to the comment you are responding to. Courts have been finding that scraping a website in violation of its terms of service is a liability, regardless of what you do with the content. We are not only talking about copyr
