JS does indeed allow mapping arbitrary objects to keys. However, it is the memory address of the object that is hashed, not the semantic value. So, for example, if you do: objects = {} items1 = ["a", "b"] i

I think `out` should be typed as a map to an array in this case; each iteration should be appending to the corresponding array instead of overwriting the entire entry.

It's fairly easy to roll your own. An example implementation of groupBy in lodash, for example: https://github.com/lodash/lodash/blob/4.17.15/lodash.js#L939... . More broadly, this is an example of a

The first one is, I think, almost a put-down - less a command than a drill-sergeant-like drubbing, a punishment for stepping out of line. The second one reads as a news report: like I, the reader of the oncall rotation, am sharing the news

I grew in a conservative religious community, around a lot of very, very, very quiet people. The husbands in particular had a tendency to sit very quietly until something required their presence and then retreat into the background.

GPT-4 is amazing in short context windows, and you can patch together more complex stuff out of that, but an app with the complexity of Salesforce, with the associated backend, is orders of magnitude more complex (the difference between a R

Sam Bankman-Fried was associated with effective altruism, not e/acc (although there's a link between the two).

This nuance is correct, and handled correctly by the code and diagrams, although the text is unclear. (Although a random ordering of the weights would not make sense for the problem setting, which is warmup sets in the gym.)

It's not clear that Joe Sixpack even owns a computer from this description. Joe may not even have internet access -- just cable and a console. And there are probably a lot of folks in this bucket still, but it's categorically one

Yes. If the machine can produce a narrative of harm, and it is connected to tools that allow it to execute its narrative, we're in deep trouble. At that point, we should focus on what narratives it can produce, and what seems to "

If you buy into, say, the thousand-brains theory of the brain, a key part of what makes our brains special is replicating mostly identical cortical columns over and over and over, and they work together to create an astonishing emergent res

I don't think this is quite right. Matt is saying that the Serum wasn't exchanged for customer money -- it was more or less created out of thin air. He suggests that most of FTX's magical crypto assets like Serum were creat

Some of the proposed substitutions, especially the view switcher, use opaque and tricky CSS, the sort of stuff that would show up in mailing lists of CSS hacks in the past. The equivalent javascript code would be much easier for almost anyo

In the proposed cheating scheme, you have an accomplice who reads the moves of the game as they're broadcast over the internet and then transmits the next move to you.

This is a strong point in Hans's favor, and Regan is very reputable, but he's also going against the Chess.com team (and Hans himself!) in claiming that he finds no evidence of Hans cheating *online* either.

There are two lines of evidence: first regarding his cheating online, which is easier to do and easier to check. Chess.com banned Hans and put out a statement saying that Hans cheated more often and more seriously than he claimed. [1] The s

This can be a useful approach when you have a very large number of states (as long as you also don't revisit states). In this case, there are few enough states to just BFS the fastest way directly.
