I am wondering why not just rsyncrypt the source code before pushing to the repo? >rsyncrypto is a utility that encrypts a file (or a directory structure) in a way that ensures that local changes to the plain text file will result in loc

TO continue the above comment.. I think it is totally possible for the computing to take non-zero time, but we observe it in zero-time as our consciousness only steps forward only with each iteration of computing the world state. So we obs

I said it because, the behavior of LLMs only appear to mimic intelligence only very superficially. Even without going "behind the curtain", and by only examining the behavior of LLMs slightly deeply, the illusion of this intellige

>Why is it the fastest possible? Why? because the "universe" takes zero time to compute it. In fact all of reality is computed in zero time. How can you beat it?

by qsera 6mo ago
This assumes that the universe is computing. But there is some hypothesis like MUH that sees reality as a sort of "recording" that we just experience.

> rebasing in Mercurial simply means chopping... Sure, but since commits have a branch attribute attached to them, "rebasing" does not appear to be "first class". It is something that has to be bolted on with an exten

Did bookmarks moved as you made commits, like a branch pointer in git does?

To me mercurials branching is closer to the development process and preserves more information, because it records the original branch a commit was made. Git does not have such concept. That is a trade off and that trade off works great for

Mercurial's model is different from Git that these things you list does not make sense there. Rebase does not make sense in Mercurial because it has the concept of fixed branches. A commit is permanently linked to the branch on which i

It also incentivize people to follow the events and remember stuff so that they are better equipped to make predictions. I think it incentivize people to use their head and may be even select better leaders.

I think the proper thing to do would be to forbid these markets to make bets on stuff that can be won by using only insider information.
