Digital painting was a skill to learn on my bucket list. Emphasis on "was". Within the last 6 months all of that has changed. I no longer value digital painting as a skill. It's easy to see why based on everything's that

Darwinistic tendencies will always be part of human behavior, it is ingrained in our biology. People will be competitive, and they will form groups and take sides and compare technological achievements.

The sentence is just a factual statement. 3 agencies have done it. That is fact. The sentence did mention china has done it on the first attempt which is also factual and relevant to context. The article is about moon landings and associat

>That's not denying some objective truth, because "specialness" isn't an objective thing that can be measured. It's, effectively, an opinion. Well then let's talk about what I mean by "special". If

I agree that it will lead us to a bad place. But here's the problem. This saying: "Humans are not special" is completely true. To deny this idea is to deny the truth. Ultimately to save ourselves, our culture must engage in s

Creating content is easy too, tons of people do it. AI is still a nascent technology so it's not involved in the creation as much.. yet.

Brain facilities that were previously evolved to gain a darwinian competitive edge through strategic intelligence can now be utilized to break the mold of natural selection. There was no direct selection pressure that coordinated the develo

My purpose is to sit while AI takes care of everything and keeps me happy. I want to live in the matrix where I have 30 hot model wives and not know any better. The simulation of course will make me a chad and emperor of the world. That&#x2

So if humans aren't special at anything, then humans don't really have a purpose. I envision a future similar to the one in Wall-E and it's not exactly bad so long as the AI actually acts in our interest.

Friend offered me 10 billion dollars of cash in several suit cases. Felt awkward so I didn't accept.

Ok I'll give you another million if you can convince one of your friends to stop driving electric cars too.

Just look at it and use your logic. It's simply very basic geometry combined with a specific font. That's it. There's decorative stuff like the curved spine but the layout is very simple. The buttons are rectangular there&#x2

Lcars is just a stylistic theme that effects color, fonts and geometry. It's not ux. It can be configured to suit any page flow or layout you want..

Yeah I'll give you 10 million if you can convince one of your friends to stop driving gas cars to save the environment. If you cant do that how can you do it for the world? Idealistic pipe dream solutions won't happen. We have to

You got one source. There are other sources that say it will happen sooner. Many other sources and these sources are not obscure. Given multiple sources saying different things, It's hard to predict. Though what we are seeing are feedb

There's an error in my calculations. Apologies. The comparison happens at every level and NOT every node so, it's O(N) for traversal then when a layer is completed a comparison occurs at a cost of O(N^2). The amount of times this

People don't have to dance. Incentive to dance is very strong though. Here's the thing, when you look at the behavior of large groups of people the overall incentive is the overall outcome. As an individual you can resist but grou

This source claims ice caps will completely melt around 2040 and before 2100. That was what was asked for. The 230 feet sea level rise as a result of complete melt down of polar ice caps is from OTHER sources. I can certainly provide that a

It seems like a joke, but I believe that projections are exponential that's why it just hard to see why it's such a problem.

I forgot to mention, BFS requires a queue. So if the graph is size N and with one root node and all the rest of the nodes as children that queue will go up to size N. So your solution doesn't actually get away from the memory issue at

Here's the problem. If the company offers you 600k salary then the dance is now worth it. The other problem is after lay offs, if all companies ask you to dance then you have no choice. Dance or stay unemployed. Obviously nobody wants

by Freire_Herval 3y ago
if you can mutate the graph and mark a node as traversed that's the easiest way. If you can't then save the addresses to a hash set. Both are extra memory but you don't have to deal with "parallel BFS," which honest

I'm also on the hiring side of this. I follow the process the company gives me. Honestly speaking, 70% of the candidates can do the job, but I fail 90% because they can't pass the coding question. It's a filter with a serious

Isn't this the place where the polar ice caps are melting? Putting water in an area where ice is turning into water (aka melting) doesn't necessarily create more ice? Perhaps I'm missing some details here?

If the entire polar ice caps melt sea levels will rise approximately 230 feet. That's the end of every coastal city in the world. Given how all data trends point to how we are pretty much going to fail at stopping global warming, the g

You need to move these sections into the GPU. Neither zig, rust, C++ nor C can do that alone. You'll need to use cuda or futhark. That's the real speedup for these types of things. Optimization in this case largely concerns memory
