No because NFTs are just smart contracts which can be queried for the current owning wallet. Similar to OO, you can put any side effects you want into the functions as long as they conform to the interface

Tbh, if artists expected this then they should have written it into the NFT itself. It would be difficult, potentially, due to the sales themselves occurring in different currencies, but if everything is eth based, it’s as simple as adding

They say they support typing but I was weary as soon as they had a class field which defined actions. Python severely disappoints in its type system when compared to flow or typescript which are turning complete.

Is there a way to keep a list with changing values sorted in real time in order to use a log n search algorithm?

In large enough systems, it becomes prohibitively expensive to keep consensus of the state of all members. Sure with 10 or so hosts it’s trivial to select the least busy one but at the scale of 1000s of hosts you begin to run into a ton ove

Maybe I am missing something, but I don’t see how this is feasible at all. Running a mill filled with tons of earth for a day at 450 RPM seems to be an enormous amount of energy expenditure relative to the PFAS you’d be able to destroy at t

This seems DOA because how could you possibly prove that an AI “knowingly” wrote false statements. We have to figure out if our current systems have consciousness before we can declare the bot not only knew the correct version of what it co

I might offer an alternative perspective. In my opinion it’s because of english’s evolution over time. Something that might have made perfect sense in the past becomes an antiquated way of saying the same thing in the future. It also delibe

I wasn’t trying to argue the truth of any of the recent timeline claims regarding AI. The question could be taken as any disruption that removes the viability of your career in a short period of time. What’s your backup in that case?

I like the idea of humans still being the keepers of knowledge forbidden to be disclosed by AIs

I personally don’t believe it, but as the title says: what if? I realized yesterday I’m not sure I truly have a viable plan whether it happens in 5, 10, or even more years.

Ask HN: Assume AI replaces programmers in 5 years. What is your backup career?

I really appreciate this perspective. It’s important for people to live where they agree to common principles. In the end that’s why you choose to live where you live. In some sense it cuts both ways. I’m more of the opinion that these area

This is understandable and I almost wanted to include it as a caveat in my original comment. Tax burden from upzoning could really hurt some homeowners. On the flip side, zoning could be seen as subsidizing land that would otherwise be more

There is an interesting assumption here that is sadly codified into law. I.e that individuals' who desire the characteristics you describe are willing to pay more than the "true" value of the land if it were not protected by

Surely there’s a level at which the market is price saturated. As in, marginally, a homes value can’t increase as rapidly zoned as a single family home as it could if it were zoned less restrictively. This would be based on overall location

This is always great to see. Something I’ve never understood with opposition to denser zoning is the following. If the land is up zoned surely it’s market value increases in turn because the range of what can be built on it increases? Your

A while ago I wrote an AWS lambda runtime to use Racket. I saw terrible Startup performance at around 500ms for a simple echo program.

Has any work been undertaken to classify training data into groups then classify prompts against the same criterion and send that prompt to the corresponding domain specific model?

CGP Grey and Tom Scott have both changed their thumbnails from their previous style to new more “click-baity” ones. I’m not saying it’s wrong, it’s just what creators have to do nowadays to keep up with the state YouTube is moving toward. I
