How are you living such that you're regularly pitting humans against computers Not only is this unbelievable, it's reprehensible

Frankly I have no clue what value the term "average" has after trying to follow this conversation.

I agree; but what are we supposed to do? Insight has always been paired with the empathy of not having it but I refuse to touch the IQ bait

I mean yea, i just view rust as the quality-oriented spear of western development. Rust is absolutely an improvement over C in every way.

Ah, understandable. > what is a dumb thing? Emphasizing quantum key control. In the situations where it's really relevant you don't need buy-in from investors, the value is evident. Sayonara!

Because the author is far more interesting than the brand? I'm not sure what would justify branding your personal observations outside of bandwagoning onto hopeful investors.

This seems like a really dumb thing to emphasize for marketing ends outside of actual competency. But what else is new!

This just seems to illustrate the complexity of compiler authorship. I am very sure c compilers are wble to address this issue any better in the general case.

I would agree if I didn't associate nvidia with incomprehensibly bad support for drivers. Idk, maybe this is a linux-only thing, but it's hard to imagine a vendor with a worse reputation for delivering functional software. Only pe

I certainly think the humor in parrot/rakudo (and why they come up today still) is how little of their own self image the proponents could perceive. The absolute irony of thinking that perl's strength was due to familiarity with

Quantum key distribution is a real thing. It's a very specific set of constraints that would make it generally attractive, though, namely not relying on networks of trust to function, maybe? Key distribution as a dumb pipe.

Sure, I just think that's a very odd way to characterize the project. Basically anything can be universal vm if you put enough effort to reimplementing the languages. Much of what sets Parrot aside is its support for frontend tooling.

I think that was more of a language-oriented effort rather than runtime/abi oriented effort.

I'm not really sure what to look for, frankly. It makes a rather uninteresting conversation partner and its observations of the world bland and mealy-mouthed. But potentially maybe I'm just not looking for a trivia partner in my s

I'm not sure how nvidia's driver track record would have helped them, but drivers nor linux nor software in any way has ever really been nvidia's strong-suit. but even with the popularity of it CUDA cannot explain nvidia&

I'm excited about this too, but it's a little concerning there's a brand in the title. There's no shortage of those from ati, intel, amd, apple, ibm, the game gaggle, etc to interview. The fact that nvidia succeeded wher

I can't speak for anyone else, but these models only seem about as smart as google search, with enormous variability. I can't say I've ever had an interaction with a chatbot that's anything redolent of interaction with i
