I like to say programming is about knowing which rabbit holes to plunge down and which to step over. There's too much to know to go depth-first down every rabbit hole. Go breadth first and accept gaps in your knowledge - everyone has t

That is exactly what OP is doing, they've just implemented it at the operating system/file system level.

The data processing inequality holds regardless of how many layers are in your neural net (processing data does not increase it's information content). You can impute missing data, and with something very regular text it could work pre

I'm working on a Kaggle competition about predicting subsurface models - a map of the geologic layers beneath a given area - from seismic data. I don't expect to place competitively but I learn a lot from these competitions. I lik

I'm also out of the loop but after some research, 0473 seems to be a TikTokism meaning "hug me, please." I would assume that this code uses octal notation, hence GP doing their math in octal, but the sources I've turned

I've been dabbling in using Fourier analysis in deep learning lately, and I'm surprised it that I haven't turned up very much research in this area (Fourier Neural Operators being what seems to be the biggest exception). Fo

We're in a political climate where scientific institutions are under threat, so of course they will loudly justify their own existence and value. It'd be irresponsible of them not to. That's not all that similar to a company

Similar to the misconception that Earth's mantle is liquid. It isn't, but time is deep enough for solid rock to flow.

Lead-free solder works fine as long your soldering iron is decent. Even if the lead isn't vaporized, you'll be exposed by touch and splatter. When I learned to solder I learned on complete crap soldering irons that could barely wo

Not an animal, but many marine algae descend from freshwater algae, possibly because the last Snowball Earth event may have wiped out the marine algae by covering the oceans with ice (while freshwater algae survived in structures like cryoc

Use what's working for you but one of the strengths of parser combinators is managing abstraction so that you can reason locally rather than having to manage things "ten layers deep." That's more of a problem in imperati

Other commenters have given what's probably the right answer, but in the spirit of exploration, I wonder about electrical impedance tomography. I'd think a salty cheese would be a pretty good medium to pass electricity through, an

It's been possible to automate this job away for decades, with no AI necessary. You could image these cheese wheels with ultrasound or X-rays and establish thresholds for the size of voids which are tolerable. This must be a concern wh

I've been working a lot with parser combinators lately, they are a really nice compromise between using grammar languages (I'd put regexes in this category, as well as parser generators) and hand-rolled imperative parsers. The par

If it were available to everybody, it would disappear. This is a market inefficiency that a "trader" with deep knowledge of the structure of this market was able to exploit. But if everyone started doing this, United/Turkish

You can think of this as having two base cases, your normal success case and an error case. You could use metaprogramming to do this semi-automatically, like a decorator that took a maximum depth and checked it before calling your inner fun

I doubt he will, I'd think it would be to curry favor with the crypto crowd, but I don't think they have a lot of love for Bankman-Fried. But it's a spicy administration so it's not a 0% chance. Maybe a 1% to 5% chance.

If Bankman-Fried does somehow get a pardon, I will be amazed that the bitter debate on HN about whether he would get off scott free or would be thrown in prison somehow resulted in both parties being correct.

An archivist saves everything, because it's impossible to anticipate what future historians will need or want; they are working from a context you cannot access. You can winnow down a large dataset to it's relevant subset, but you
