This is very polished! I worked on http://learngitbranching.js.org/ which is a similar approach (browser simulated lessons). My one suggestion is that you might want to allow people to jump into the harder lessons right awa

For example, Perplexity has been fudging their accounting numbers to shift COGS to R&D to make their margin appear profitable: https://thedeepdive.ca/did-perplexity-fudge-its-numbers/

You can't compare an API that is profitable (search) to an API that is likely a loss-leader to grab market share (hosted LLM cloud models). Sure there might not be any analysis that proves that they subsidized, but you also don'

Hello, author here :) It's actually not based on geolocation, I just directly look at navigator.language / navigator.browserLanguage: https://github.com/pcottle/learnGitBranching/blob/main/src&#

Thanks for saying the quiet part out loud here -- everyone wants to believe in education improvement but there's a harsh reality of the industry that is pretty unpleasant to confront. I think the only hope would be to run a pilot and s

Surprisingly large number of people at the beach for San Francisco (which is usually pretty cold). These digital remasters give me a bit of an odd feeling though -- the technology to film at 60fps didn't even exist during this time, so

This is the best explanation for both async/await and hooks that I've ever heard, thank you! It also shows that although there might be some learning investment required to use the more modern version of both, it's well worth

The founders can answer better, but a lot of traders are not just looking at individual stocks but rather packages of stocks together. Say you want to invest in the health + tech space, but there's some risk that covid ends and gyms

For those who want a rough programming analogy here -- this sounds like support for multi-row transactions in a SQL database where only single row edits were allowed before. Now you can describe "buy goods A and B at $10 maximum, commi

Yes they are, in a sense that the outstanding mortgage debt grows at a slower pace than inflation. However the 3% is guaranteed for ~30 years, so it's likely the bank would still come out ahead in the long run if inflation settles down

The forks don't "disappear", but they get overruled since the consensus has shifted to the majority opinion of the ledger. Thus all of the transactions on a local fork (that doesn't become the majority) are wiped out --

This is awesome! What kind of bias would we expect to see in the training set?

Given the precision of the points, lexicographical order on (x,y) would essentially be lexicographical order on just x, which then induces a lot of jumping around the map.

Yes this is just a standard JSONP response as served through jQuery; not sure why this wasn't clarified.

That sounds nuts; it seems like a huge liability that they are putting AP2 in the hands of consumers when it can be more dangerous than just the average driver...

> You down voters really support that? Amazing. They are probably misinterpreting your comment; at first I thought you meant Levandowski was the one who invented the LIDAR components, so he should be financially rewarded outside the norm

Even if it were computationally cheap to do so (despite a very long blockchain and new blocks arriving), it is a peer-driven system. So if you alter your blockchain, it will differ from the majority consensus from the rest of the crowd and

Can you elaborate on this? What is the tipping culture like in Thailand? I presume you mean in Mexico that since everything is all-inclusive, the only real payment is tips so it strongly affects service quality.

Although a similar content format is available elsewhere, Vine's content and community is pretty unique to their app. I'm disappointed to see it get shut down in that light

Doesn't that heavily bias towards candidates who have used jQuery before and/or built a product gallery before? Skewing interview performance based on some specific previous experience might be what you want if you expect your can

Thank you for this perspective; was a new take on a lot of the common tropes I've heard. As said in Mr Robot, debt is the invisible hand that coerces us all
