How do these machines manage the sharing of one local SSD across multiple VMs? Is there some wrapper around the I/O stack? Does it appear as a network share? Geniuinely curious...

The real problem with deep learning approaches is hallucination and edge case failures. When someone finally fixes this, I hope it makes the HN front page.

For a subscription fee.

But they reported >99% accuracy on their cherry-picked dataset! /s

Meanwhile, still no cure for cancer.

Like any low-level language it can easily saturate a single core, and it has pretty easy concurrency syntax.

Just out of curiosity, do pieces like these get written because a journalist is randomly interested in the idea, or does the author's publisher reach out to the magazine and suggest a puff piece topic?

It would be interesting to regress out family income from scores and then correct the scores to the national median family income. I wonder if anyone does that.

Guess what? Hotels are run by normals.

That is an amazing empirical fact. As a physicist, my mind goes to something like the acceleration of the acceleration (jounce), but I can't find a model for what is being observed.

Also could be less fraud, smaller average liability claims, lower costs of litigation, etc.

Is it legal to mount parabolic mirrors on the front of your car?

And most people who lift their trucks don't angle the headlights to downward compensate.

Like using a hex editor to build up a Word doc?

Yes, anyone who's ever learned LaTeX and why it was invented immediately sees how absolutely awful Word is at its rendering. Funny that a trillion-dollar company can't seem to figure out a better algorithm than Donald Knuth mocked up in Pascal decades ago.

I think of this as another version of enshittification -- the acceptance of poor performance as the "standard".

And don't get me started on math equations in Word ...

And some dude's out there just planning to sell pots of honey.

I would have assumed that nowadays using a small neural net to approximate a CFD model of a flame would be the easiest.

I love Pleco, especially the OCR, but I had the same experience. Learning from flash cards is boring to me and, no matter how well I drill it, I eventually forget the material. Probably it works better for people who will be using Mandarin/HSK vocabulary in the near future and for a long duration.

So is your brain.

All of us.

I wonder if they really use OCaml for the reasons they state, or because it used to top the computer language benchmark game back when the firm was founded and now it's too expensive to rewrite everything.

I think its monomorphization: Attorneys::<General>().

This would be create an incentive to attack a competing company until you breach it 5x, causing its destruction. Competitors would be attacking each other nonstop.

Like 3 check chess, but in Delaware.

I have a book on the shelf called "High Performance Python".

Seriously, though, if every Python program in the world was 0.1% faster, that would probably save a lot of energy.

God, that email takes me back to days when email was much higher signal-to-noise and sig lines were for color, not credentials.

This could be fine, because in science we rarely add dimensionless numbers. Usually they are a scaling factor (i.e. multiplicative).

When I use Rust, I feel like I'm just a dude mopping the floors of the nuclear silo.

I, for one, will enjoy watching lawyers and AI fight to the death.

No, that's never happened before. You're crazy.

I've seen on Toyotas and also at Universal Studios bolts on rides are marked with paint presumably to indicate that the nut hasn't backed out.

Are airliners marked in this way? Is checking the bolts simply a visual inspection, or do the inspectors need to get out a torque wrench?
