This is why it annoys me when journalists say P!=NP is about scheduling flights.

If I leave other people’s stuff that I promised to take care of on the street and it gets stolen, I would be to blame.

It's a solved problem on the CPU side of things

Is it? gestures at pile of cpu bugs

I always assumed you had to talk your way into some committee to submit one of these. Apparently it’s wide open. But why do it? Resume padding?

common sense

75% of people surveyed drink coffee every day?

Some people may prefer that to “oh no, Steam did rm -rf $typo/“

This page tries to send expensive SMS messages.

“Using modern experiment frameworks, all 3 of ideas can be safely tested at once, using parallel A/B tests (see chart).”

Nooo! First, if one actually works, you’ve massively increased the “noise” for the other experiments, so your significance calculation is now off. Second, xkcd 882.

SO had a fairphone. Broke screen. Turned out the screen replacement module was vaporware.

Noob question: the Top type here is exactly the Node constructor of the stree type. It seems useful to declare a type that is “this ADT, but limited to these constructors”, but even Haskell seems to avoid it. Why?

strace -e open

I think it was 2x total speedup vs previous version, which already used gpu for “most” things, so the real speedup is 2/(1-most), which could be a lot.

It’s not football. The parties will balance, sure, but the policy, uh, hyperplane will have shifted.

The mustache beefed up to fill in for Homer’s nose in profile. Mwah.

I thought the days of “opening a pdf freezes IE for several seconds” were long past. What makes this painful for you?

The choice of computer is just an additive constant.

I remember some tool or other used 128-bit RSA back in the day.

Another critical decision is that they only investigated pairs of model-dataset with good initial performance.

The blacklist is visible on the about page of each instance. Feel free to go sample a few. The first one I tried had literal swastikas in the user name of the first post. It went downhill from there.

It’s not immediately clear what stops me from preparing k-1 sybils?

Same problem as “hash the PIN code”, an attacker can run the algorithm for Alexa-1M.csv.

To get the sale? It seems to have worked. Truth is orthogonal.

That’s odd. I remember using it in the 90s. It’s the obvious way to do things if you don’t like small objects.

(Also GPUI seems to be retained, so completely unrelated.)

Is this a copy of libgen or just a frontend with a tip jar?

I assume https://xkcd.com/1958/ (2018) was in response to this.

“The overall mortality for sex-reassigned persons was higher during follow-up“

Higher than population average. Do you have any evidence that it is higher than people who are denied treatment?

type robotname = string & {_robotname_marker:true}

or some variation. The marker does not actually need to exist.

Wait, are writers incentivized to get “scrolls” now?!

“If it were truly AI, then they would make more money offering their own CAPTCHA service instead of a CAPTCHA-breaking service.”

Please elaborate.

“workers (ie humans)”

Do you know what we call a process that takes tasks from a queue?
