As another commenter explained, different domains use words differently. The ML paper I linked has been influential enough to use the word "emergent" in machine learning to describe this behaviour, so you're right that, withi

But knowing the molecule structures at 50C and 75C tells you very little about the freezing point. Different example: If you measure the number of cases of a given virus, it will either spread across the entire globe (R0 > 1, eg. COVID-1

The original emergence paper has multiple "emergent" metrics. [1] Though, the paper this article is about [2] mentions that among the "emergent" tasks they tested, 92% were measuring accuracy on either exact-string-match

When we talk about "emergence" in machine learning, we talk about those metrics with a sudden jump, as explained in the paper that introduced the term: https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.07682

It depends on how you do arithmetic. If you're a human and you do column addition, 12345+35791= 5 8136 is just as big of a mistake as 481 4 6 (the actual result is 48136). It's just one mistaken column in both. Binary half-adders

That is evidently false? The EU got Apple to switch to USB-C, Google to open up Android's web search, Facebook to stop processing EU customers' data in the US, etc. Whenever I'm in the US and sign up for a service, I immediat

From what I can tell, this is the amount you have to invest into the country, not the application fee. They are similar to US EB-5 investor green cards, but grant a full citizenship.

Just from glancing over the docs, that doesn't seem supported: > Dada, like JavaScript, is based exclusively on async-await. This means that operations that perform I/O, like print, don't execute immediately. Instead, the

They borrowed it from Rust: `.await` is special syntax, roughly equivalent to `await print(...)` in other languages. https://rust-lang.github.io/async-book/01_getting_started/04...

What they did wrong was accepting an all-shares transaction in the acquiring company. Those come with risks, and sometimes the risk is that the company goes bankrupt a year later and you'll be left with nothing. My understanding is tha

Are we seeing the same benchmark? On that site, both Vue and Svelte are extremely close/on-par with Vanilla JS on every benchmark except the transfer size and first paint (which shouldn't matter at all here). jQuery also has an ov

"Savings and investments" counts as one category here.

That's false, "strictly economic theoretical speaking" inflation is a function of spending and savings (among others). If you take savings and use it to increase spendings, that causes demand-pull inflation.

Actually, that's not a bad thing. UDP is small enough to have nearly no overhead, but complex enough to let firewalls do their job. Six of the eight bytes in its header would probably be in the header of any transport layer protocol an

I think your question is valid! React does have solutions for most of these, but remember that even in Canary, its job is just to sync state between renderer<->DOM events<->data fetching, not to replace your backend. - Proper da

This is the problem that most JavaScript frontend frameworks are trying to solve. Most of them just connect JS and renderer event loops, but some are approaching data fetching and background jobs as well (like React with the experimental `u

I was in one of the recent batches and they definitely didn't stop funding devtools. In fact, it felt like we were encouraged to pivot into the devtools space by some of the group partners.
