It's easy to see there must be something wrong with this since if you get 10% faster 8 times, we can be sure that this doesn't mean you're 114% faster (1.1^8 = 2.14). You can't get more than 100% faster! When you say som

If they were measuring dangerous levels of bioaccumulation then you can be sure we'd hear about it. You'd need to live 1000 years though given the levels we're talking about.

It is absolutely not true that for any problem on a real computer it's possible to tell if it terminates, other than fairly trivial observations such as noting that if it runs longer than 2^(size of memory) steps it must be looping. If

It's not creating a VLAN by programming switches. It's all done in an overlay network. This is out of date but gives you the idea https://www.usenix.org/conference/nsdi18/presentation/dalton

It's a lot less relevant to find some way to "trick" it into displaying ads in situations like this if users wouldn't normally see this, and it could easily be defamatory if you went on to claim that this was therefore r

One issue with USB-C is that dust gets packed into the female side. I've found it can be in there so tight that even after attempting to clean it, the dust remains. But going in with a sewing needle, rubbing alcohol, and really scrapin

Real estate agents' job is not so much buying or selling houses but getting clients. There are so many agents ready to grab those insane fees that most agents can only manage an occasional transaction. Then there are a few that are gre

I suspect people will argue about whether AIs are truly conscious or just stochastic parrots even as all human-dominated tasks are replaced by AIs. The AIs will be creating masterwork art and literature personalized for each person better t

It's the maximum amount of time a Turing machine of size N can run. So if you want to know whether a Turning machine of size N or less will halt, just run it for BB(N) steps. If it hasn't halted by then, it never will.

I did a test and entered "saute." It worked, except that the first 5 videos were all "Binging with Babish", so it was the same person pronouncing the word. Still pretty cool though, and a lot better than the SEO spammed

The "nondeterministic" in NP ("Nondeterministic polynomial") means that problems in NP can be solved in polynomial time by a nondeterministic Turing machine. Such a machine would be like what people incorrectly think qua

No you definitely don't want the phone doing confusing and weird things during an emergency. You want it to behave in the way the user is accustomed.
