He mentions this in passing on the Mindscape podcast (with Sean Carroll). Essentially, he's read too many studies that have participants perform so called 'rational' tests whose outcomes are largely a function of the environ

Right. Reading the entire conversation shows the parent messaging is FUD.

The parent was asking why public funding implied public ownership. That is the default. Multibillion dollar negotiations are a series of complicated compromises, so that the public would be willing to finance a fab they will neither own n

Because it would ultimately be paid for by the public.

In a Newtonian context, gravity is a force. In an Einsteinian context, forces are not even discussed.

> Gravity isn’t a force in general relativity. More importantly, GR has nothing to say about forces at all.

Why is this incredibly important? Is there some huge proportion of unused, rotting feed in the world?

I encountered this and wrote about it in other meditation thread. Here I've inlined it below. Meditation is a blade with no hilt. I _accidentally_ fell into a vipassana state of mind after the first time trying a particular religious

My hope is that those illustrate the 'spirit of the law' of taking both responsibilities equally serious. An issue is when middle management, so often comprised of literally minded number crunchers, interferes.

Under what time-horizon is the theorem valid for?
103.
by jessermeyer 6y ago
Right. I believe the long term vision is to JIT for other architectures.
104.
by jessermeyer 6y ago
JIT works great here too. It would see iteration and the associated mathematical calculations as a hotspot, and optimize only those parts, which is easy since the arrays are statically typed and sized. I say this as a Computer Scientist at

Algorithms II is typically a mathematical proof class about algorithms. At my university, it was used as a filter class, and quite demanding. I think it was also 4 credits.

Thanks for the citations! I'm familiar with some of these, but not others.

Thanks for spelling it out. Makes more sense now.

The Hubble was pointed at what appeared to be a black void of space, and revealed lush fields of stars and galaxies. So at one degree of perception, we have an empty void, and at another, a bright flush of light and activity.

Do you only notice the input lag in-games or does it persist when, say, dragging application windows around?

by jessermeyer 6y ago
Interesting. To be clear, the only change was the GFX card (and driver)?
114.
by jessermeyer 6y ago
Additionally, the input lag may have been there all along but was not perceivable due to low performance.

'The hardware is the platform' is the DOD mantra. It's not a weakness to integrate more information about the problem space into the solution. It's engineering. To _ignore_ information about the problem space is certai
