And at that point I cancel and find other ways to get the content ad-free. Maybe I can buy shows I like individually on Apple TV, or I don't watch them. I have a hard no ads policy.

Seriously. I was trying to find socks without a logo. Just simple black ankle socks, made of mostly cotton. IT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE! As you said, the only options are cheaply manufactured stuff online.

These were all intentional tradeoffs though, not any ignorance of theory. Also, it's pretty rich for someone to be complaining about Go while referencing Javascript of all languages. Javascript's design flaws are legendary. And I

I'm not fan of Musk, but stories like this where "X wanted to do Y but actually didn't" are not a "scandel" or even bad in my books. This stuff happens all the time behind closed doors and it seems like in this

Also airplanes use autopilot and require full control at all times. It's almost as though there are no situations where the term autopilot refers to a fully automated system. Who knows where the general public today go that impression.

As a frequent user of autopilot, I can assure you it is nothing close to NOT DRIVING. It is advanced cruise control and you need to be attentive. Even full self driving does many many things imperfectly, requiring you to take over. I'm

It may be less used in driving website design, but I assure you it is very very widely used in marketing to determine which campaigns are working.

Except as a newcomer to the language, I didn't know about anyhow or thiserror and spent an immense amount of time figuring out how to solve this problem, and writing all the boilerplate. This is not pragmatic and not ok. I would say a

An incredibly typical scenario is that a function makes several calls that each have their own error. E.g. maybe initialize the database and a web server. If you want this function to return an error that encompasses any of the sub-error ty

I don't feel that Rust is actually well designed. The borrow checker and lack of GC makes it well suited to the tasks that traditionally one would use C or C++ for, and it is definitely safer than those language. But in terms of overal

Honestly an LLM chatbot trained on all the worlds academic writings that was able to correctly cite sources in its answers would be of immense benefit to humanity and academics. I wish it would happen, but so much academic content is locked

The irony is that your "simplification" uses even more "jargon." But yes, thats how I would read that, and I also see no issue at all with the language in the paper. These terms are used for precision, and have meaning t

This kind of drive by shit posting is pretty unfortunate. All countries have pros and cons. As a Canadian I am opposed to this bill, and don't love the current government. But we have this government to avoid having an even worse one.

This really begs the question, when they removed the policy why did they not remove all the existing blocks and labels? Sounds fishy to me.

If a company implements paypal then people who only have paypal might pay them money that they otherwise wouldn't. However, people who might have otherwise payed via another means may also now use paypal. If paypal has higher fees this

The music industry thinks every sound is a remix at this point, it's pretty bad example of where we want to go with copyright and ip if you ask me. Most artists get jack shit, every single thing is considered a remix or sample, and the

Yes when I said word vectors I meant rich embeddings not one hot representations. That said, in reviewing the fastext bag of tricks paper on their classification module I’m now second guessing my assumption that they use complex embeddings.
