This statement is so 90s and so BOFH-centered that it is irrelevant to a level of stupidity. Gates has done a lot to prove he's not a cold-hearted mf and compared to all the bros in their prime at the moment, dude, just think of Elon o

Important not - you should not assume Zed is on par with vscode in terms of functionality. Nothing really is as MS started as early as Atom was born, and perhaps they were considering some SublimeText approach to the editior, as it is what

no surprise I missed it, 3.4 was only released in 25.11.2024 г. which is like yesterday in ESRI terms, given price and speed of adoption of new versions (note: many .gov still use the 10.x/11.x branch). which does not change my origina

Yeah and if you think about it is totally doable. The FSM or whatever automata is just picks and exhausts branches that provide the correct value. Definitely can be done to streaming data… protobufs in a way is this, given it’s a sort of BN

No, but I've been campaigning at university where I teach to do it. As you may expect - very few people at academia do bold moves just out of love for knowledge these days. So, perhaps, I'm going to have to do it myself sooner or

Let's admit it - overnight it became much much harder to be a convincing professor, given each student can use GPTs of all sorts to contradict or otherwise intimidate you. Only a seasoned professor knows the feeling of being bullied by

how about we also get regex-parsable streams (IO::Async in perl has something like it, suboptimal perhaps) and regex-parsable treestructures (totally possible)? seems like just having the ~= work on structures (or whatever the API is called

Is it meaningful to conclude that this is an algorithm that pro GGsrs all follow, and one of them perhaps explained somewhere and the model took it? Is geo-guessing something that can be presented as algorithm or steps? Perhaps it is not as

Given a prolog (not problog, but the non-stochastic one) source is a parametric grammar, we can perhaps* argue the inference on the programming logic level can be unfolded by using a pen and pencil. think L-systems, they are self-similar, a
