This is the kind of claim that needs actual evidence, otherwise it's just a dumb feel-good sentiment about how you _could_ be 2000 ELO on lichess if you cared. I tend to agree that with enough time and _appropriate_ training anyone can

Rich kids, you mean. The rest are working through college, if they're even bothering to go to college at this point.

This is a justifiable worry, but there are two reasons we shouldn't accept it: 1. If there are easy nudes of _everyone_ then there are no nudes of anyone. Admittedly, this is going to take a bit to culturally sink in, but eventually a

I don't find "you can implement tagged unions with regular unions but not vice versa" all that interesting of a statement, since one forces tags on you it's not enlightening that you can't remove them, and with any

How do you not cringe at a comment that so matter-of-factly states that our modern researchers all have this assumed negative propensity that somehow the wisend researchers, thinkers, and leaders of the past did not have. You must be speaki

I can't tell if you're making a joke, a troll, or genuinely believe what ChatGPT tells you with out bothering to test it. This is why I hate the AI hype, because people do legitimately do this and think "wow it's so smar

The only benefit Terrence Tao has received is in correcting syntax. He has mentioned that he has gotten (in my opinion better) benefits from talking to existing Lean4 specialists.

Can you not imagine a universal application? For example, what if you were guaranteed housing, food, and water for working some government job (assigned at random even) a couple of days a week? Most likely people will not want to be janitor

[citation needed] You know its funny because almost all academic advancement has not been in a capitalist system.

And maybe they should be funded by society enough to live. It's funny because this kind of social darwinism or capitalist world view is not the only possible way society could be successfully organized. Yet the (fallacious) appeal to &

What does a GC have anything to do with it? You can reference count all the pointers if you want, you can expose JVM pointers in Rust where Rust doesn't manage the heap memory. There are plenty of easy solutions to work with the JVM

If you don't have the time then it is what it is, though to be honest you've basically written the paper already in Markdown. I would guess the bigger issue is that you don't really get a lot out of it, and reviewers could po

No because I don't know how to draw. But I can program in my head and reproduce on a page.

I think I have very good visualization skills. To the point where I can solve three dimensional geometry problems in my head with nothing external. However, I never "see" anything with my two eyes in the way I can see an afterglow

Appealing to mathematics is the least useful, because there is no objective mathematics. There is true logic, either, for that matter. Logic is a tool to talk about the physical world, not the other way around. These sorts of arguments defi

Even if you admit the hypothesis, that there is a finite set of _expressible_ moral statements. That does not impose a universality to a particular selection. Just like there is not one-true-programming language, regardless of there being a

Yes, there are physical facts, most moral relativists are physical realists. But that is also exactly where the moral relativism originates. You _do_ have physical laws, you _do not_ have moral laws. You can _test_ physical laws, you _can n

Right because the closed-source game engines with 10x the complexity are really struggling not yielding control.

The fact that the HN crowd, the "selective view" have downvoted my comment and not the one saying clickbait titles is good is enough for me to be reminded how braindead the community is.

Funny, because AI has seen plenty of applications before ChatGPT, yet "the oncoming train" in most peoples heads is "this is going to completely replace artists, programmers, etc" This is what is laughable, and has been

How do you accurately measure these numbers? I suspect you don't.

I suppose different people will have different tastes, but I will never agree that this is rude and that you should not ask. You should not be upset when declined, but that is another matter.

Pointing out a mistake is toxicity? Your ego is off the charts. Also, I gave you a solution that would probably be _better_ than yours in 99% of scenarios, a simple vector from any standard library, std::vector in C++, and Vec in Rust. This

in what world is a hashtable lookup worst case O(1)? Your own solution doesn't match your requirements. If you want amortized complexity then a simple vector suffices.
