I had a much longer comment detailing my problems with this article, but it got quite unwiedly by the end being confused about various statements and representations of data. I won't touch upon those things as it seems others have alre

I was in the process of making a longer comment, but I think I will leave it at this one: Non-Violence or 'Ahmisa' being a core tenant of Buddhism (and many other religions), is the one I would pick as a more apt comparison. I don

Why? The business was weeks away from shutting down in 2015 under original ownership, Twitter looked to be saved from 2018 - 2019, but not really, seeing as 2018-2019 were the only 2 profitable years for Twitter ever Twitter was leaking mon

Nah, it's an insult meant to lower the assumed position/opinion of whoever it was aimed at. Maybe in the past it meant what you describe it as, but I haven't seen that in any recent use. It's more or less a term one woul

My game is looking at the eyes, seems like the model has a tendency to make faces that have pretty much mirrored eye shapes and sockets, pupils being clear of imperfections or just plain circles or even both pupils being identical to each o

I firmly believe (as in assuming, no proof) that it was both a cost saving measure and what you describe as increasing revenue - think about it in terms of statistics, if you give the user the most relevant videos as the top 5 suggestions,

Eh, I don't think integer overflow is a recall-only type question This type of issue is pretty common to encounter and I make at least a few fixes a year specifically addressing integer overflow across many companies

Being fired with cause somewhat removes your eligibility to a severance package and your future stock awards This could be considered cause, or it may not - not a lawyer, just a guy who writes code sometimes interacting with various legal p

Well, no. Free Speech is an idea, far more expansive than the law as written in the US constitution, or many other countries and their respective law of the land/documents. Free Speech does mean what you describe it not as. But there i

Why not? His son appears to have put forth the effort and sacrificed plenty, far more than 99% of students, and looks like his son has the smarts and grit for it as well. This should be about these people in this world. Why are you making i

Is that what made these tech workers slack on their job? I'll be the first to tell my manager and HR about bad employees, especially the ones that drop the ball so frequently. It doesn't seem like I get any concessions for picking

Haidt argues that much of the work that researchers do have no relationship to 'anti-racism' that Kendi popularized, or DEI goals in general. It also appears that Haidt is taking SPSP's new direction literally - whereas you a

If you can design your system so you rarely if ever use pointers, that would be the single best thing you can do for your C++ codebase I like to enlighten my interns every summer about the reality of pointers, and how much of a noob trap th

CUDA was just plain better back in the day, more feature robust, and more features in general. Much simpler to pick up as well, especially at the time with what tools and libraries we were forced to use NVIDIA also partnered up very quickly

It does, but I know why you have this interpretation and I think it's fair to have it. MS only created their compiler to support C all the way up to C89 and it's original standard, with some Microsoftisms in it. MS did not update

Of course you can't, but who is to say that we will not grow indefinitely until 2500? Or even 3000? I don't think we're anywhere near the limits of human productivity, let alone all the ways we can enhance it through innovati
