I'm very curious about the performance. Where's the quantitative analysis? Got any graphs or charts? How's the recall/precision? Show me the data!

If we did a poll, I'd guess half of the people here would say "of course AI could not do this" and the other half would say "of course it can"

You can easily write the code with only one-arg functions. Example: myStream.min(Comparator.comparingDouble((obj) -> { ... })); You might think: it will map over the objects and convert each object to an number, and take the objec

My favorite gotcha is Java's `Stream.reduce(accumulator)` doesn't call the accumulator if your stream has zero or one elements. This is used for `min(comparator)` and `max(comparator)`. It's very funny when the comparator thr

"Seatbelt cannot be unfasted during takeoff" Not very realistic, is it? The rules of the simulation and the rules of the flight crew are different things. The simulation should let me do anything I could do on a real flight. Inclu

That's an odd choice. I would have thought camera modules are commodity parts (have been for a long time) and there's not much margin there. Probably they are buying the staff, not the technology.

You're not wrong! Personally, I like to use penguin as a measure of height. Everybody knows how big a penguin is, right? It's pretty standard.

It's not too prosaic, it's just too imprecise. There is no standard size, and some regulations even allow a range of sizes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Football_pitch
