I mean that’s all well and good until you have an object in your game and you’re like “I’d like this object to be leaning at 45 degrees, oops I mean 0.70710678118 + i*0.70710678118

A lot of money did end up in normal markets. There is a lot of data for this. For instance, the Fed offers something called a reverse repo facility that allows institutions to deposit money overnight at the Fed. This is typically leveraged

That’s the economic orthodoxy. The semiconductor industry has been deflationary since its inception and there’s been plenty of economic activity.

It’s going to kill the economy because the Fed is basically setting up perfect conditions for stagflation. Congress and the Fed caused the M1 money supply to 5X in just a period of two years. Of course there is going to be inflation in such

I actually find it ridiculous that engineers can be held personally liable for work performed for a company. It's not a model I would support moving towards, at all.

I doubt it. There are billions of parameters and weights all combining in non trivial ways to produce the output. I don’t think you can describe any of its workings with simple terms like “doing token substitution” even if that’s what it lo

I call this the gaslighting explanation: “no, it definitely wasn’t the messaging product owned by an advertising behemoth. You must have searched for it somewhere else.” Obviously the OP remembers where they’ve seen the product. If they has

I wonder if the Treasury will ever go after people running Eth validators. Storage on blockchain, thus far, has been too expensive to store significant amounts of copyrighted material. But you have to wonder what would happen if the blockch

The author goes on to explain why super earths are a good place to look for habitable planets. It’s the entire point of the article. Planets meeting this definition also tend to have other characteristics as well.

I didn’t say that a group of people should have different rights than individuals. I think we should view elections as a central component of our democracy. Allowing entities, either corporations or individuals, to spend exorbitant amounts

That's mentioned in the article: > A super-Earth is any rocky planet that is bigger than Earth and smaller than Neptune. If you read further in the article, it explains why super-Earths are a good target to look at for extraterrestr

Hmm, weird. I've gained roughly 50 lbs over the course of the pandemic. I've been working from home and often work from the couch, bed, or the dining table. I originally attributed my weight gain to the lack of commute, and I&#x27

Whether or not the first amendment applies to PACs is highly contentious. For instance, I don't think people have a constitutional right to form corporations, so I'm all for limiting the political speech of PACs. Just as I'm

ARMs make up a tiny percentage of mortgages. They are also usually fixed rate for the first 7 or 10 years. How many other types of revolving loans are there?

Yes, because a business spending 7 figures on a single contributor can definitely afford spending $6,000 on a card.

Yea, large companies that don't really care about operational spending will happily use GPUs. But for anyone else, spending a few thousand on GPUs will save a lot of money very quickly.

This card is expected to be around $6,000. Maybe it's just me, but I don't consider it that unreasonable. A lot of ML scientists are (were?) earning around 7-figures. Companies paying these salaries can afford a a $6,000 GPU. Of c

Both you and the GP are suggesting slippery slopes. I think it’s reasonable to think that checking every single driver, every single time they drive, for alcohol use is an invasion of privacy, especially since the vast, vast majority of dri

You might also be able to leverage typeof in conjunction with Id<T>. Like if you have some parameter x with a complex type you can create a temporary variable of type Id<typeof x> to avoid looking up any additional types. Totall

I guess mobile support isn’t part of those design systems. The Atlassian docs don’t work on mobile at all. The other two are at least functional, but look really bad.

The Id<T> type defined in the first comment seems like a pretty good, albeit ideally unnecessary, workaround.
