Their proof depends on arbitrary precision and they explicitly state that the finite case is not TC. But if you are talking about arbitrary precision floats, or the computable set of the reals it is equivalent. The computable reals are just

As an example: Schaefer's dichotomy theorem shows that, when possible, just make sure to use Horn clauses when possible. Takes a bit of thinking but is superior to huristics or SAT solvers if you can refactor to allow for it.

ML is fundamentally pattern finding and matching. The fact that it is useful for finding patterns that may be different than humans tend to find is not an indication of understanding of the underlying data. It is no different than clusterin

Superficially, some aspects of human learning are similar to PAC learning, but it is not equivalent. Gödel's incompleteness applies equally well to humans as machines, in writing down axioms and formula, not in general tasks. The Irony

The Wada property is when you have 3+ disjoint sets that share the same boundary set, at least for the complete Wada property. In Newton's fractal, any circle you draw will either have a single root or all roots, no matter how small yo

Nothing is stopping you from using namespaces, and containers are just namespaces with cgroups etc But containers aren't jails, pid and uid remapping is just remapping. A huge problem container has to drop capabilities on the honor sys
