Related: the mnemonic major system. Similar thing with consonants [1], somewhat time tested. But probably not for aphantasts, at least I struggled. Much more with memory palaces. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mnemon

Yes, that. Same here. I still remember (semantically) that my parents laughed at me, when they told me to count sheep to fall asleep and I told them all I can see is darkness and white dots when I close my eyes. They probably thought I was

I don't find it so surprising, because I can recollect sounds, voices, songs. The same thing, another sense. So it's probably like hearing "inner" sounds, just with motion pictures. I wonder if there are also sound aphan

A detective board inspired by https://github.com/Fungeey/detectiveboard . I was looking for one on the internet. The mentioned one is great, and I love the features. It uses node however, is a bit heavy and has dependen

Right? All these "features", but they don't get the very basic stuff right a lot of times. User input is very very important for the user. On iPhone swipe keyboard something that feels like a random generator replaces not onl

It still can be true that the uptime is better, or am I overlooking something?

If it's the right numbers (called measurement data) and the right excel sheet pushing (called running a validated model) that is exactly the way you can make these claims. Overall it's called the scientific method.

I think it's rather the choice we are given at this moment in history. But I may be wrong. If you abstract away any other problems and boil it down to environment, health and work protections on the one hand, and restriction of unlimit

I could not agree more. I am on my second try to master mathematics (30 years after the first), and I can see, understand and appreciate mathematics mainly from the constructive standpoint. Nothing wrong with classical mathematics, as also

So you are doing the same as all of us: checking the quality of evidence best we can and then weighing it best we can. But then somehow you feel the need to make your opinion and the opinion of the people that somehow align with you (or vic

So what you mean by "honest" is "they believe the same things as facts like I do, and draw the same conclusions?" Or put differently: "they have the same world view as I have?"

I am skeptical of any numbers from a war zone with a public relations war going on at the same time. This appears to be generally admitted, as witnessed by quotes as the long standing and cross cultural "the first casualty of war is tr

> Their honest transparent, and vocal opinions How do you know the opinions are honest? That strikes me as not easily assessable. What does it mean that an opinion is transparent?

But here's the catch. If you do that in a lot of places, you'll have a lot of extra code to manage. So your suggested approach does not seem to scale well.

I am sure that's what you mean, but I think it is important to state it explicitly every now and then: > Defence in depth means you have more than one security control that overlap. Having them strictly parallel is not defense in de

So you can't be bothered to read even the first sentence of the only reference gp uses before commenting with a request for deeper explanation? Let me then quote the first sentence for you: > ORDERS OF THE COURTS The list published

Here is another view: some of them maybe do things to perform richness. And others are probably so bored that they just try new extreme things, but nothing fills that inner void. I can't get no satisfaction. Or maybe not. I'll nev

I find LLMs incredibly useful for some very specific cases: summarizing text for example. Even dialogues to learn something. Now there are n use cases (10 <= n <= 50?). There is no real moat. What we don't know is, if there will

Not at all. I was just implying that the process definition was a bit vague. Next time I'll state it clearly.

But I think I should be giving a reply also to the content of what you say. That's only fair after you took so much time explaining. I think you conflate two questions in your statement: the question of what can be said about a functio

Look, neither did I say there are no mathematical certainties, nor did I anywhere argue about the content of what you said. The only thing I said is: there are probably no _obvious_ mathematical certainties in reply to what you said, as the
