Helicopters are really expensive and that's the only way I can think of getting a delta V low enough so the device, tether or aircraft doesn't shatter/snap on capture. But more importantly, it sends a message - don't fuc

I think OP was talking about the academic/artistic elites, which nowadays seem more divorced from the general population than they used to be. And I think that has more to do with the internet than movie prices. People who want to get

Find out which sort of language features you find really cool that apply to your project. For example I have this idea in my head of writing ML stuff in Haskell, since everything is lazy and you could run models off disk. That would be real

O.o you beat me to it I was thinking of building something similar I don't think I could've done the UI as clean, though, very nice! I hope the mainstream platforms start implementing stuff like this soon

IDK it just seemed like you were espousing whataboutism. Men are violent, but what about women? in this case.

I'm only confused because I don't think it was ever my intention to say >"women, on average, have no traits that are unhelpful to the flourishing of human civilization"

Show me how the precession of Mercury affects violent crime rates and I'll bite. Until then, I'd say the assumption is that two arbitrary things aren't related

> Why isn't the question just as applicable to gender? The assumption is that gender and crime aren't related. The burden of proof is on showing that two things are related IMO. Black history and criminalization are related so

What's your justification for "the thing that applies to black people should be equally applicable to men"? That's what this argument boils down to

It's nothing to do with political pressure and more to do with ill-formed comparisons. You can't just substitute in random groups for another. In order to make a statement you need to know what you're talking about. And it se

Because men are not blacks and women are not whites, I feel like this is basic comprehension We have different names for different things because they are different. They're not all just "groups of people", you're litera

This 'men are violent, therefore women must also be bad in some way' rhetoric makes no sense. There's no purpose for it other than assuaging sore feelings.

The idea of the transformer somehow being a trainable key-value store is kind of abstract and weird and has little to do with the mathematics of it. The math part of that is how the dot product encodes for similarity between vectors, but be

I'll be honest I wasn't meaning to defend OP's claim to the death or anything. I was mostly tracking their argument. I too am somewhat confused as to why just feeding outputs to inputs isn't recursive. I think honestly t

For context I'm talking about function application a la lambda calculus. In this case 'function application' is something that's done to discrete symbols. Circuits aren't a discrete system however so there's no

From my understanding Julia is closer to metal than R. This means the semantics are much more specific than R, and the syntax is more consistent/rigid. For example, plotting in R always baffled me. plot(x, y, col=..., col.name=...) In

> no traits, no interfaces, and no classes. So, the amount of organization in his code is effectively zero. This is an utterly deranged take. Do you mean to say that adherence to OOP and code organization are the same thing ?
