They had the same problem when it was relatively more popular.

Yea, recently I set up immich and while it’s solving a way more narrow (image and video library) problem it’s so much more responsive and felt much more “put together”.

I thought that the last state of the art opinion was that there is no reliable difference between the brains of the sexes? I am by no means informed on this.

Could that mean that at some point one could detect transgender people using medical testing?

Why the obsession with integers? For weather we normally add a decimal point. And while I don’t agree that 18°C is a scorcher that means there are 29 commonly used values between 15 and 18°C.

In the metric system we are very used to decimal parts in units.

Edit: I mean we add one digit after a decimal point: eg. My thermostat shows 18.7°C for example.

Another good one is second hand shops. When I was in Helsinki I’ve found really cool stuff there.

Would you say the price did get spread further out or were they always that far apart?

Unfortunately many US grocery stores geo block the EU :/

Probably because of privacy laws? I guess I could use a VPN but asking here was easier / more fun.

Thanks, believe it or not but I find it actually really interesting how prices differ and what products are sold.

If I travel I always try to go to markets where local people buy their groceries

Never understood the hate for that comment. Disclaimer I also don’t know the actual source context but a series of tubes is an apt description for the Internet IMHO. Especially TCP connections feel like tubes. UDP Connections more like those vacuum tube lines businesses used back in the day.

Also ich würde behaupten, dass es in der Tat nicht sehr cool ist einfach in einer anderen Sprache zu antworten.

Aww, the poor turtle is trying their very best.

You probably have a skewed impression. This is common in some places like Germany, but it’s far from the norm. (Even in Germany it’s mostly telecom that does it for some reason.)

Many ISPs only change the allocated IP only in cases like lost connections and some don’t even do that giving out but not guaranteeing static IPs.

The only way to make Rust segfault is by performing unsafe operations.

Challange accepted. The following Rust code technically segfaults:

fn stackover(a : i64) -> i64 {
    return stackover(a);
}


fn main() {
    println!("{}", stackover(100));
}

A stack overflow is technically a segmentation violation. At least on linux the program recives the SIGSEGV signal. This compiles and I am no rust dev but this does not use unsafe code, right?

While the compiler shows a warning, the error message the program prints when run is not very helpfull IMHO:

thread 'main' has overflowed its stack
fatal runtime error: stack overflow
[1]    45211 IOT instruction (core dumped)  ../target/debug/rust

Edit: Even the compiler warning can be tricked by making it do recusion in pairs:

fn stackover_a(a : i64) -> i64 {
    return stackover_b(a);
}

fn stackover_b(a : i64) -> i64 {
    return stackover_a(a);
}

fn main() {
    println!("{}", stackover_a(100));
}

Btw I didn’t down vote you.

Your reply begs the question which definition of AI you are using.

The above is from Russells and Norvigs “Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach” 3rd edition.

I would argue that from these 8 definitions 6 apply to modern deep learning stuff. Only the category titled “Thinking Humanly” would agree with you but I personally think that these seem to be self defeating, i.e. defining AI in a way that is so dependent on humans that a machine never could have AI, which would make the word meaningless.

What algorithm are you referring to?

The fundamental idea to use matrix multiplication plus a non linear function, the idea of deep learning i.e. back propagating derivatives and the idea of gradient descent in general, may not have changed but the actual algorithms sure have.

For example, the transformer architecture (that is utilized by most modern models) based on multi headed self attention, optimizers like adamw, the whole idea of diffusion for image generation are I would say quite disruptive.

Another point is that generative ai was always belittled in the research community, until like 2015 (subjective feeling would need meta study to confirm). The focus was mostly on classification something not much talked about today in comparison.

That was such a culture shock when I went to the us for the first time.

In Germany and many places in Europe do not think of burgers as sandwiches. I was so confused when I ordered a sandwich and got something like a burger.

I expected something like this. My confusion must’ve been quite the sight, the waitress even seemed concerned. Tasted great though.

Numpy can use BLAS packages that are partly written in Fortran

In assessing risk assume everyone is a bumbling idiot. For we all have moments of great stupidity.

There is definitely a risk in changing it. Many automation systems that assume there is a master branch needed to be changed. Something that’s trivial yes but changing a perfectly running system is always a potential risk.

Also stuff like tutorials and documentation become outdated.

Why are Americans so riled up about this?

Do you guys not realize that this reaction is literally one of the reasons they do this? To be a distraction and to show their base that they made the bad people™ cry about it.
