One very mundane reason a company I had worked for switched to Office365, was that emails from our own domain would often end up in the spam filter. It can cost a lot when that happens.

Is there some analysis why the polls didn't correctly predict the result? A failure in representative polls like this should be avoided with statistical methods.

Thank you:)

I am sure somewhere is a job you would like. Probably with less salary.

Is this implemented with lockless programming? Is it a reason for the performance drop in single thread code? Does it eliminate the need for a GC pause completely?

I once worked at a company, that bought a lot of unnecessary software, because they knew they need a database, but didn't knew what a database actually is.

Do you have some secret intel? They make the best chips in the USA.

That is not fair. They did not actively kill hundreds of people. They just waste some energy on suboptimal chips and business decisions.

Can someone share insight into what was technically done to enable this? What replaced the global lock? Is the GC stopping all threads during collection or an other locking mechanism?

Where would you go when you would live there (as a programmer interested in ai)? Just asking for a friend.

I once triggered the ChatGPT censorship (by trying to manipulate an image of my face) and it also responded in english to a german query.

"a == b" is the same as "not (a != b)" Maybe I'm simple minded though.

Maybe they are not allowed to use uncensored LLMs, so they have to first develop this unlearning, before they can even use it.

> I really don't want to have to pull out an operator precedence chart in order to read your code Hard disagree here. I write code for people who can read the language. This includes operator precedence.

I would say if you know you have to later work with the guy and he will be higher up than you this is actually smart.

No, because when all cells are empty he returns "Winner". The interviewer also lost his job, since he didn't spot it nor does he know basic python syntax.

I think it makes sense in python for ==, <=, >= I cannot see it for != "a != b != c" is not equal to "not (a == b == c)" which is a bit strange imo

So the goal of the education system is to produce monkeys. The website where the article is hosted looks very dubious to put it mildly. Looks like SEO spam.

The problem I have is I don't use any social media. I did write a very cool tutorial about how to apply machine learning to control problems, but not many people even looked at it I guess^^ https://github.com/the5avage&

Have you heard of physics informed neural nets? It seems like a hot candidate to potentially yield better results in the future

I once wrote a tiny cpu rasterizer in dlang. It is more efficient than what is shown here, since it uses only integer arithmetic (based on bresenham's algorithm). E.g. for a triangle it outputs the points in the triangle without ever c

Hey thanks for the nice reply. I know you can't generalize like that. There are probably a lot friendly Haskellers around ;) I was just angry when I wrote my last comment, because I had to read this: >> as a special case of most

> No, I didn't, and please refrain from imputing thought processes without evidence. There where at least two other replies talking about accumulators. I call that pattern, like it or not. Have you even heard of programming patterns

by the5avage 6y ago
Yeah it's ok ;) Going back to my original comment this code is exactly what I meant with "patterns to deal with other problems". You clearly used a pattern (accumulator) with wich you are familiar. Do you agree that most impe

I found something like splitting a string into words not very intuitive... Also the classical (recursive) fibonacci function everyone shows has accidental complexity of O(2^n). If you want a sane version it looks definitely more complicated
