Having not really used these grading systems growing up, ABRSM is odd to me in general. Has a very very low ceiling for difficulty, at least for piano. I never really know what is appropriate for what grades, especially given that the UK gr

Man that top comment is such a combination of "sneering to show off" and completely wrong that I'm shocked I'm not on reddit. Recommending The Jazz Theory Book to someone starting from scratch, especially someone self st

The "runtime complexity" we're talking about is big-O. In computer science, which includes this discussion of it, that typically refers to a class of functions. Saying "this algorithm is O(...)" is the same as sayin

Asymptotic models are not a statement of how long it will take; they are classes of functions modeling the relationship between some performance outcome (run time most often, but sometimes memory or other things) and data coming in. These m

Yeah they are more than happy to allow my VPN traffic to access these donation pages, but the second I try to access anything, it's a blanket 429 to anything I try to go to. Why would I donate to something I can't access?

That's a lot of system specific jargon. I can understand being befuddled by this if you are unfamiliar with system details, especially given that you don't always need to care; future agents need to care. Little tip if you're

I guess my point is that when people are regularly reading dense and challenging material, they can absorb information quickly. It's a literacy gap. Nothing about Claude's output should slow anyone down who did the readings in the

I'm surprised by this reaction to Claude's verbiage recently. I don't have any issue immediately understanding what it's saying, but then again I read regularly and a lot of the people I know complaining think it's

You would think that no one would be stupid enough to use Fable or Sol for small one-off tasks like filtering tweets, but AI has opened up a lot of avenues for stupid people to ship code. It's only going to get worse.

Sorry, I'm not here to talk about your feelings. I am not "emotionally hurt", nor should you be. This is HackerNews and you're a grown ass adult (I assume). If you disagree with me, then feel free to outline your disagre

It seems like the author's point (which would have been easier to parse out had it not been placed at the end of the piece) is directed "nerd" culture's storytelling, which I would describe as being the kind of genre fic

HackerNews is where I find informed commentary on tech stuff because places like reddit are hollowed out and useless for it. I don't care one bit about cretins like VCs.
