Rewrite their own DNA is a little misleading, because the actual DNA codons don't normally change. But cells can affect gene expression throught multiple mechanisms, so that part of the DNA gets activated or de-activated . You can use

Note that speed is relative, but time dilation is not. That's the twin paradox, they're both relatively moving away from each other, but only one 'ages slower'. Though I don't know what it means to say a photon does

A more precise model still might be to try to factor in the expected loss in healthy years for the donor, and the average lifespan gain of a kidney recipient. If you pull a child out of the way of a speeding truck, you've saved their l

I did not read GP as attacking a point you (haven't) made. It's merely extra information. Please assume good faith, otherwise discussions escalate into accusations.

I think this is overall a very well written article, as someone not involved with EA, it seems a good critique of EA. But! This actually makes me more interested in EA, because the criticism only really chips away small caveats in the ide

They don't mind using the third dimension, like dropping down to your knees or hiding near/on a ceiling. I've had one try to go behind my back while I was following it. They're clever enough to not move once hidden so ma

Sure. This has happened before and they do eventually fix it. Then a different problem might happen on another page a few months later, and this'll last a few weeks.

Your solution sounds good, but at which point do I integrate it with my FTP account? I have it mounted locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem

Worth noting this is targeting ML applications, so I don't think you'll be able to display even a text console with it for the foreseeable future. But I love that this is even in the realm of possibilities! There's no reason

There's no wrong way to play, but savescumming makes it a different kind of game! Sadly the AIs (nethackchallenge.com) are not yet good enough to show us what closer to optimal play looks like.

Yes. If you extract keys, you win the game. I think their best answer is a sort of blacklist system where if Intel becomes aware one of their key has leaked, their servers could stop telling people it is genuine (this gets into the details

The CPU has keys that you verify by asking Intel, is the short of it. Of course if you're inside the hypervisor and being software emulated, it could do anything to you. The idea is you verify enclaves remotely, so no other system woul

Apple's history of membership in AOM is complicated™. They joined late and became a founding member retroactively, but I wouldn't use that as a very strong signal. Apple is never the first to support open standards.

A tetrafoo is four times the size of a barbaz. Tetrafoos are pretty big things, about the size of a washing machine. Now I've said nothing specific about either these things, besides size. Can you tell me if a barbaz fits through a doo

I think they mean that C++ has a lot of momentum in graphics and HPC. So in their model of the world, students who learn Rust would be surprised that there are people who do not use Rust.

Oh, that is several levels deeper! PCIe is a big standard with several layers of abstraction, and it's far from passive. The different versions of PCIe use a different encoding, so it's hard to sum it all up in a couple sentence
