Now this is just Moscow in summer

I couple of years ago I would ask to collect your coworker’s garbage bin :)

Not as easy to find in my vicinity, at least good ones, which is of course true for any language and profession in general.

I have RoR on my resume and very fond of it.

For me the title is a bit of a contradiction: I always think about the library as “the final language”. So author’s example of RoR/Ruby is “RoR is a great web service language that uses Ruby as the base, they evolved together and arguably as RoR is the main source of clients for ruby, ruby was as well designed for RoR as RoR for ruby”

I think about programming/design as languages/translation in a lot of ways: its languages all the way down.

I agree. c# and asp.net core also co-developed. Interestingly in both direction, towards users (tons of type inference, removing boilerplate, ...) and system (writing highly optimized web servers with low level paradigms)

I believe a reasonable push back to this surveillance increase should be “incresing law precision”, like “fines for making a really dangerous maneuver vs driving fast on an empty road”

“really scaring someone on a bike vs driving on a sidewalk in general”

I wonder how this is the most straightforward way to know that?

Hey, community! Thank you for this opportunity to connect and feel closeness to the best parts and people in our industry.

Thank you for your open mindedness, smarts, stupid fun and lovable nerdiness.

I feel at home here.

One thing that makes me sad are dystopian fears. Not sure if this is warranted or not, but certainly get my dose of dread from HN. But thank you for being so sensitive and caring in this.

Happy thanksgiving.

The most fun on this site is solving a problem and then having your mind blown by solutions in Apl/j/k and trying to guess what they mean without knowing anything about those languages

Even better than the crazy languages, is seeing some fundamental math used to prevent having to do a ridiculously expensive search.

That said, raw brute force often did far better than you'd like to admit.

The biggest thing I learned from PE was that neither elegant theory nor brute force had a monopoly on successful optimization strategies. It's been something I've carried with me ever since and has over and over again proven its value.

A real gem of a resource.

I've solved about a hundred PE problems in Livecode, maybe 40 in Python, and about 20 in J. I highly recommend giving it a try in a language you don't know, it's fun! Especially with something as obscure as J.

right

You mean that they don’t have access to whole opponent behavior?

It would be hilaroius to allow table talk and see them trying to bluff and sway each other :D

I think by

> LLMs are unable to reason about the underlying reality

OP means that LLMs hallucinate 100% of the time with different levels of confidence and have no concept of a reality or ground truth.

Confidence? I think the word you’re looking for is ‘nonsense’

Make entire chain of thought visible to each other and see if they can evolve into hiding strategies in their cot

pardon my ignorance but how would you make them evolve?

I mean, LLMs have the same sorts of problem with

"Which poker hand is better: 7S8C or 2SJH"

as

"What is 77 + 19"?

thinking then, that requires the extra oxygen

can you provide more context for this claim? my intuition and experience tells me the opposite.

what is the definition here? are impulsive avoidance copings like playing a video game instead of doing the hard work of addressing the worries/planned hard activities not a “video game addiction”?

and if we are talking physical withdrawal, then how should we call the same aspect of nicotine/alcohol addiction mechanics?
