Of course there are quantum computers. They are 50-100 qubits, currently.

What part of quantum computing is pseudoscience? That one is still invokes the scientific method.

what c++ coro library are you using, folly? i use that and it makes async programming trivial, relative to callback style programming.

Do your tricks still apply to modern c++ compilers?

In the us, a PhD is 5-6 years if you include the masters that is potentially received along the way.

Quadratic is literally x^2

Could this just be a bias of our ability to comprehend complexity? Humans are finitely intelligent. We cannot comprehend less symmetric systems. This may lead to publication bias. Less symmetric systems that defy human reasoning are assoc

Seems like you are detached from how adtech works at big tech. They are all powered by neural networks

by mrfox321 5y ago
There are more complex models than the one you described. That query / item tower is cheap and cache-friendly. These tend to be used for high recall. You can echew those performance benefits in favor of neural networks that allow for

Alchemy tricks to get these things working in real life aren't supposed to be science.

There's always some new neural network module that pushes the needle.

survival bias skews IQ in certain fields. taken to the extreme, you're essentially saying that the IQ of field's medalists are not skewed.

I enjoyed D&F. Worked through up until Ring theory. One thing I would suggest is find suggested problems based on a university course. Since some consecutive problems can be similar, you don't get as good of ROI as you would spen

Why not? People who know languages to write CRUD may have different professional preferences to people who know Lisp. If we are okay with stereotyping programming languages, is it not fair to stereotype people who are fluent in said program

Even users on HN use downvote to "disagree" even if the intended functionality is to denote the comment as "low quality" or "irrelevant".

Depends on what you are working on? Cross-request cache's naturally require synchronization. Although you could simply get away with thread-local storage. In huge systems, there's always some other thread doing stuff that you may

It would once the govt gets involved. It's like saying that weapons research is just a free-for-all. The amount of regulation is correlated with the potential harm to society. Look at drug research. There is plenty of red tape that

Inflation makes debt less valuable, too. So if your wages or other assets track or exceed inflation, then that debt should be paid off more easily

Could this not simply be explained by the fact that devs who use older tools are more experienced? Maybe that needs to be controlled for, too.

Is your working memory sufficient in unfathomably large repositories? Or are you also excluding that from your argument?

Ray is awesome and magical. You can build really ergonomic distributed programs that are small wrappers around python classes. I would prefer this to multiprocessing even if you are only on a single host.

Ah didnt realize swift has no runtime. Thanks!

If you are going to wrap everything in Rc, just use kotlin or c-sharp or python?

I doubt RL is involved. That would be soooo risky. Bidding algorithms can model the price of winning the auction, you can maximize profit without fancy RL
