I might be biased because I do what you might call "data engineering", but my first thought was "there are three obvious ways to do this", and the accepted answer lists exactly those three ways. You'll find that non

I don't think this is in direct contradiction with the article. This was written in response to ideas like: (a) the machine is so powerful that you can just tell it what to do and it does it with no supervision or (b) we can ditch prog

They are not even remotely the same. 6÷2(1+2) is written in a deliberately confusing fashion. This is a simple math olympiad-style question. All universal quantifications on the empty set are true, for the same reason that the implication

It's a multiple choice question, it's asking "which of the following is necessarily implied", and A is the only one.

It's an interesting translation but it's adding a layer that most certainly wasn't there. The original almost literally translates to the most common English translation: Lasciate = leave behind ogne = every speranza = hope v

There are open components for generic purposes, e.g. draw the board given a PGN, show the moves, check if moves are legal and so on, but they aren't suitable for engine internals. There are several tricks with bits to store positions,

(Sorry for the OT mini-speech) I don't really like 0 increment games OTB. Online it's fine and you could argue that time management is part of the game, but on a physical board you end up knocking down pieces and having a lot of a

I don't think the problem is with the tone, but rather with the messaging. All AI-related marketing has been along the lines of "let the computer think for you" rather than "use the computer to think better", infant

I think it's better at specifying intent, similarly to how you would use "for" and "while" in a programming language even though they are literally the same thing and more often than not they compile to, respectivel

The problem I have with the argument is that "improvement" needs to be something objective and measurable. "I'm throwing away old code because eww" isn't improvement. The two examples cited are very telling: &g

Am I stupid or this is solvable with pen and paper? The word problem directly translates to this system of diophantine equations: (i) { x + y + z = 100 (ii) { 6x + 4y + z = 200 Replacing z in (ii) using (i) yields: (ii)
