Big problem? Who are you talking to? Really, it someone can't even type a response back, were you ever close to begin with? Unless they always had some level of anxiety when sending you a text, in that case it's good for them to s

Handwritten letters are still better than typed. That's why we still get authors to actually sign their book and not just put a print of it. So, no, there is no evidence that AI will change stuff. We had canned responses and template a

That is even more ridiculous, at least switching to a clean fork of Redis has business reasons. Following the latest cultural fads, less so.

It does seem that who you wanted to be was just you plus a bunch of stuff. I guess most people think of who they want to become personality-wise but maybe it's just me.

Here is my general approach, I attempted to learn Japanese in many different ways and the one I outlined before allowed me to finally break into being conversational. 1. Go through hiraganas a few times (however you prefer, I would write a

Making an actual indie game can take from 6 months (tiny) to 4-5years. If you multiply that by 10x, the upper bound would be 40-50 years. Of course, that's not how it would be but one has to consider whether their goal is to build a ga

Duolingo is to feel like you're learning not for actually learning. Great for telling people you are doing something, that's all. For me, the best has been to get a anki deck to get the most basic 1000 words, once finished, go fin

What if you want to load all of Wikipedia and images on the RAM for even faster access of every page?

I'd definitely support this (even help). My non-related wish for my future kids would be to have some modern version of the BASIC games you would have to type in manually. I never did that but it sounds a really fun to get into technol

More people (and not just the poorer) needing to use the public transport will definitely have a positive impact on how much money it gets. And if it is being more strict with people who break driving laws, I don't see why that shouldn

I don't really get your comparison with restaurants. Could you elaborate?

Not OP, it be comes natural and doesn't take a lot of time. Anyway, if you want to, LLMs can today help with a ton of programming languages and frameworks. If you use any of the top 5 languages and it still doesn't work for you, e

Depends on what AGI means to you. If writing a program that you find complicated counts then it is. I do think that writing code is a specific type of task that a statistical machine can do well without actually bringing us closer to AGI.

Instead you could spend $10-20, be able to buy a couple in case you wanted some backups in certain situations and not have most people replace their phone when their batteries start losing juice and make their system feel sluggish. All to h

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. I get it that millions isn't much but it's something, and at least it sends a signal.

There might be lots of things going on there: colour, depth, pattern matching. This one shows that they can distinguish shapes even slightly different from another. I think it is still significant and interesting.

It does but one has to hold a belief for it to be eventually confirmed or denied. Many people historically and presently see themselves as the pinnacle of a godly creation, so they put humans above everything and anything, meaning that most

Why does everything need to devolve into a discussion or comment about US politics? Not everyone cares that much about it.

That's why I am playing TotK without durability, it was such an annoyance that ruined everything else for me. Might make some things easier but I am not there for the challenge.

Exactly, read Lua and got out instantly. Games are complicated beasts, something along the lines of C# help massively the development and the avoidance of bugs. Python, <X>Script and Lua are not languages I'd wish to switch to fr

Just to be fair, Supertramps are not controversial for those very valid reasons; those reasons require thought, empathy and actual understanding of the situation they are in. Those kinds of lifestyles generally create a knee-jerk reaction t

Totally agree, I find it absolutely obnoxious that it is a crime to make a mistake in the tax return documentation. EDIT: Ok, I'm not from the US and for some reason I was under the impression that incorrect tax returns were punishable

If you put an object of color X of intensityn N in a net with color X of intensity N+M, then the object will get some spill over from the net similar to M, which the brain/person doesn't necessarily realise and simply assigns it t

You saw someone making a bunch of observations, setting up an experiment and trying to use maths/programming to prove an hypothesis they believed to be a sign of "lack of human-ness"? To me it showed curiosity and ingenuity,

A service goes poof, a library either slowly deteriorates or breaks just as easily as a self-written one (if an underlying platform breaks it for some reason). The self-written one is maintained by 1 person, the other is used by 100+ people
