> Could it be a market correction?

That term has a very specific meaning in that context.

All actions are done by your inference engine and harness. Something has to execute that curl.

So there are "different branches" as in "one branch now, two different branches later" or not? (Or one gazillion branches now, one gazillion branches plus one later. The point is whether the "different branches" can be counted or not.)

Have you ever tried using an iMac at a Starbucks?

I mean, this seems like a dream but in a bad sense: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2012/01/imacs...

> there are different branches

If by different branches you mean something like « now there is one, now there are two » it seems that branching is no less mysterious than collapse.

There's the handwaving.

Decoherence gets you a diagonal density matrix description of the world. It doesn't get you a single-state description of the world. Going from "There are many parallel universes" to "and we are in one of them" still takes a lot of handwaving.

Sure, the MWI still has an open problem which is why it looks like there is a collapse of the wave function.

One person's waste is another person's wealth.

Seems the setup for one of those “the crows have eyes” movies.

For those unaware, this was famously stated as a test for hardcore pornography by a Supreme Court of the US justice in 1964.

Other people have claimed confidently year after year over the last few years that the latest model was AGI - or that the singularity would arrive in a few months anyway. All the battles are uphill when you’re at a local miminum, I guess.

As old as time.

(The name sounds a bit like autolytic, evoking self-harm. Which may be appropriate after all.)

  Cosmo Kramer: It's a write-off for them.
  Jerry:        How is it a write-off?
  Cosmo Kramer: They just write it off.
  Jerry:        Write it off what?
  Cosmo Kramer: Jerry, all these big companies, they write off everything.
  Jerry:        You don't even know what a write-off is. 
  Cosmo Kramer: Do you?
  Jerry:        No, I don't.
  Cosmo Kramer: But they do, and they're the ones writing it off.

Edit to be fair: the "500 minus tax write off" comment does make sense but often people overstates the benefits of writing things off.

Patching cables is so primitive... Use punched cards to define the connection patterns or something!

Worth flagging!

Why waste time say (write) lot (long) word when few (short) word do trick?

A long, thick, figurative piece of wood - possibly load-bearing.

It would have been funny if the "how" had been dropped to end with "Did AMD Ryzen get 50% faster in two years?"

[The] Title Butcher strikes again!

"PCB is brought to you by Fable 5" is pretty different from "This PCB is brought to you by Fable 5". Maybe you could do "PCB brought to you by Fable 5" if you are really against articles? Let's have a Fable 5 censorship agent or something...

>> the only way around it is to search like “C”…wait for results…”H”…wait for results…

Some people don’t like that. I don’t know why you like having to wait but if they showed Chess for CHE you could still find other apps if you kept typing.

Maybe there are also people who like the lottery of results changing the instant you click on the app you want because it adds excitement to their lives.

I don’t get it. How is it useful that typing CHE you won’t see Chess even though it was visible before you got to type the E?

Great link.

> Christianity, Islam and Judaism […] They explicitly all worship the same God so not "incompatible gods"

One of them (for the most part, at least) explicitly worships one God that exists as three distinct, co-equal divine persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. That view is explicitly rejected by the other two.
