The way I see it: the language rules are simple, anyone can understand all in one sitting; yet the language gives you all the materials you need to build different concepts in SC from scratch. The latter point is important to both teaching

Another HN post becomes rosetta? Besides the poor search, it does not even try to remove duplications because of symmetry. Rosetta posts should always include a one liner from APL, so here is a link: https://dfns.dyalog.com/

Berkeley CS bends to common usage, instead of holding to its own pride? Scheme is such a simple but deep language, and is really good at introducing all the concepts. It is aged, like a good single malt whisky. Now they try to serve fruit p

Considering a long term project, signing using a private GPG key does not seem to be practical. What happens if the key expires? What happens if the key gets revoked? Or stolen? Are you going to sign every commit again?

I've been using nixpkgs for almost a year on an age-old linux distro controlled by my company. It replaced gentoo-prefix, which was error prone and hated RH based distros. Nixpkgs works really well and the separated environment makes

More and more programs supports unicode now. Why stop at Emoji? APL is going to take back the world finally. Anybody still writing a multi-letter identifier in your code? So 80's...

As time goes on libraries may not be the fundamental issue. Hardware, on the other hand, may become the decisive factor. You will just pay more and more in terms of the fraction of the cost that goes to energy consumption.

When running flat out, the entire cluster will consume a grand total of 2.5 watts. This is surprisingly low. Does anyone have a performance comparison between this and a gpu backed neural networks?

Does it mean that we can run it on any computer that runs Java? I read through the tutorial but couldn't find anything that specifically tied to raspberry pi.

My comment seems very controversial. Got a lot of up and down votes. Allow me to comment on myself. What I wanted to say was that whatever MS did with their bot, they didn't succeed in training it to differentiate right and wrong

Imagine a two-year-old who could read and type and were only allowed to connect to twitter. It somehow is not a test for intelligence. We learned to behave through years of interacting with each other.

There is nothing complex about processing some numbers and make inferences. Simple algorithms do that. What a complex AI should be able to do is infer from human social and emotional behaviors.

As someone typing on a 2011 Macbook Air, I really don't like that comment. What's wrong with using a 5 year old computer? Fortunately their hardwares still last for you and me. I had to send in mine for repair twice. Once for

This title really puts me off. I can't find a conceivable reason for anyone who actually uses Org Mode to write it as "Emac's Org Mode". Another reason to never go to this particular website I guess.
