It's hard for me to imagine that the 'ideal' language for AI would even be readable by humans at all. Left to their own devices, these systems seem to make up their own way of communicating ideas.

It's honestly quite pathetic, but not at all unexpected these days. I do sometimes wish that when the negligence is so gross (sending API keys in the response of an unsecured request?) that the government would issue a fine. If you don

Well I absolutely cannot draw, but one of the most interesting things about the recent talk about aphantasia is how many creative people are able to execute their craft with relative ease, even without seeing things. Some seem to fallback t

So I have been practicing various exercises over time, but no effect. You are right about meditation though, you have to pick the ones that require an abundance of nothing. However many techniques and classes emphasize the visual types of m

This has been nagging me for weeks since I 'discovered' that almost everyone around me can visualize things in their mind. Frankly, it helps explain a lot about my life. The inability to picture the face of friends, family, places

I'm all for this train, but if it costs this much to build and even more to maintain, and it's not even the newest train technologies, then it's probably just doomed to fail.

East 1 is indeed the oldest and has the most non-standard configuration of the bunch (besides China, of course). I definitely would recommend east 2 or west 2 for any new deployments.
