As far as assisting with pure math problems, it is in its infancy. Yet ML in general has had numerous practical successes that most people use daily (speech recognition, reverse image search, recommendation systems, etc.). Yesterday, Yann L

Some publishers basically do this. For example, Manning will ship you a $12 printed copy of any digital book you own. They also currently offer a printed copy for +$6 if you buy at the time of purchase. (Similarly, Springer offers a $25 pri

Sounds like a terrible situation. Keep in mind most lawyers will give you a no-charge consultation. Even if they don't take the case, you might get some useful advice.

You can quickly determine that you need _at least_ seven items by summing the largest. It then happens that there are two possible seven-item solutions (468 solutions in total). To figure this out, I did in fact "just start adding.&quo

I was confused by this as well. The price shown on the S&S screen seems to be the total price for the full quantity after tax , which may explain the extra dollar.

I did an internship in a largely white rural town (e.g. ~0.5% black). One of the other interns who was black confided in me that he was uncomfortable walking around town and grocery shopping, since he was stared at constantly.

Couldn't this exact sentiment be said about CS as a whole? Do a project on one aspect that interests you -- over time, you'll learn more. Very few people are knowledgeable about all of it.

There are two types of chatbots -- unreliable freeform ones (e.g. GPT-3) and reliable script-based ones (e.g. Alexa). I believe that what you're looking to do (dynamic rewriting) is moreso an active research topic! The script-based ch
