I always figured the bartender was just another philosophy or sociology or political science major who couldn't find a better job. Which I'd say is also a relevant modern issue. I know plenty of college students and grads working

It's more of a trial and error kind of play. It really helps to quick save/quick load a lot to figure out what you can get away with.

> On the other hand, for us "tech people" it is actually easier to stop using Google and Apple and serve as example for others. Pushing for anti-monopoly legislation needs not be the only thing that we do to solve that problem.

The first neural networks appeared in the 50s (with significant limitations), and proper research into them and appropriate funding first started in the 80s. NN's didn't become a thing overnight, and neither will this. I'm no

You do realize you can't just jump straight into "Let's see if this thing can drive a car", right? There's years of research and development that's going to happen before anything like that. And it's not l

A cursory glance at Japanese culture and values shows me that America has had far less influence on its development than you believe. On the scale of individuality/community, Japan is further on the opposite side. The anime/manga

This is similar to the idea that a number isn't always a number. A number can be categorical, in which case comparison operators don't make any sense. They can be a label or a name, in which case addition or other mathematical ope

Computational modelling is already something that's fairly widespread for trying to understand the brain. The only novel thing here might be how his model is designed.

Considering the variety of animals that seem to show this behavior, isn't it possible that mammals, specifically humans, are "encoded" with that same random search pattern? I'm not sure how you'd test for it though.

It does, actually. No ePub I've seen places the images in between text in a satisfying way. PDF's are designed in a certain layout to account for images and keep that design no matter what I'm viewing it on.

> So, you could place image in right place in your ePub book in same way as you place images on your website. I've never seen an ePub with images where it looked anywhere as good as the PDF version. It's generally a mess.

I read a fuckton of papers and non-fiction literature with images. ePub simply isn't useable in these cases. If I'm reading something with no images or graphs or anything, then fine. I'll use ePub, otherwise, no.

I'm not sure what the alternative is supposed to be. ePub is reflowable, fine, but it absolutely chokes on placing images. At least with PDF's, I get the book in a form that was designed by a human being to be read by a human be

I'm also interested in what software you're using for this. I've looked into tools that support Zettelkasten and they all seem to have made inexplicable changes to the system. The most significant to me is the change from usi
