I'm assuming no coercion. In my scenario, tier 1 doesn't need any of that except natural resources because they can self-produce everything they need from those in a cheaper way than humans can. If someone in tier 1, for instance,

The marginal value of natural resources decreases with quantity, and natural resources would only have a much smaller value compared to the final products produced by the AI systems. At some point, there would be an equilibrium where tier 1

In economics, you aren't necessarily creating wealth just because your final output has value. The value of the final good or service has to be higher than the inputs for you to be creating wealth. I could take a functioning boat and s

Having your life dependent on a government that controls all AIs would be much worse. The government could end up controlling something more intelligent than the entire rest of the population. I have no doubt it will use it in a bad way. I

Developing a model of the real world, or even just learning only a subset of self-consistent information, could be detrimental to the task of predicting the next token in the average text, given that most of the written information on many

Of course, I'm just pointing out that the main explanation it gave was the equal transit time and added the angle of attack only "slightly increases lift", which quite clashes with the visualisation IMO.

It still got it wrong in the very first answer, as I mentioned in my top-level comment.

Very funny. The very first answer it gave to illustrate its "Expert knowledge" is quite common, and it's wrong. What's even funnier is that you can find why on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&#x2

I work in game physics in the AAA industry, and I have studied and experimented with ML on my own. I'm sceptical that that's going to happen. Imagine you want to build a model that renders a scene with the same style and quality o

I once wrote a non-conservative generational GC for C++ just as an exercise, with the constraint that I could only use standard C++ (it was in C++17). It worked based on a template type I called "gc_ptr<T>". So you could cre

I've seen people complaining about early access games before just because they never got released (hence my question). From the comments I get this case is a bit different though.

The game is in early access. Steam clearly explains that when you buy an early access game you take the risk of it never being finished. I don't know much about the events or the promises behind this game but I woundn't say it&#x2

I recently read "The Machinery of Freedom". It makes a strong case for an anarco-capitalist society. I'm not sure about either of these arguments. The most robust arguments, as far as I can tell, are those relative to common

OK, I have no idea about C#, I use GDScript and C++. All my tests are in GDScript.

Not sure when you last tried it out, but GUT (Godot Unit Test) is what I use and it integrates very well with the IDE.

Because you simply can't define "preset" in absolute terms. Two events that happen at the same time in my frame of reference might happen one after the other in your frame of reference. If the past nor the future exist and yo

What can cause the mutex to lose track of the number of waiters?
56.
by m4nu3l 3y ago
The code isn't the easiest to read but in glibc it seems that the syscall is only performed if waiters are detected in userspace during an unlock operation https://github.com/lattera/glibc/blob/master&#x2
57.
by m4nu3l 3y ago
That's my understanding too. In Linux mutexes are implemented by futexes (Fast User-Space mutexes). If there is no contention they are guaranteed to not perform a syscall https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futex

Of course I'm an ideological anti-communist. I prefer not starving to death like in the great famine - which happened in the 50s-60s in a society that applied the principles you are proposing.

All you objectively need is some calories every day and some shelter, some medical attention. That's it. Everything else is subjective. Either you define "needs" to be objective and thus you can satisfy them with just those t

This can be true for some resources that people consume in limited amounts, like food. It's not true about houses, cars etc as you can always want a larger one, a faster one etc.
