Air travel is a good counterexample here: technology made airlines far more productive, but much of the gain went into lower staffing, higher throughput, and cost cutting not a better passenger experience

I think that mathematical proofs, as they are actually written, rely on natural language and on a large amount of implicit shared knowledge. They are not formalized in the Principia Mathematica sense, and they are even further from the synt

What I like about mechanical watches is that, having survived a near-death experience when quartz watches were introduced, they’ve evolved into a completely different kind of product. It’s fascinating that, unlike most other businesses and

In a quick web demo, this library was the only one that could handle interactive viewing and manipulation of a very large graph using its GraphGL component ! I don’t think it's a well-known visualization library, but it's quite in

Not sure if Michael Roth is related to Philip Roth, but it somehow reminds me of American Pastoral and that era of protests against the Vietnam War and its aftermath. I'm not entirely sure how those demonstrations compare to the ones w

It is fascinating (to me at least) that almost all RSA implementations rely on a probabilistic primality test, even though the probability of picking a pseudoprime is extremely small.

Thank you, I'll look into it more closely, fortunately it builds using CMake / Clang, and cross-platform libs ... might be possible to port it to MacOS after some tweaks.

In my experience, recent versions work well for out-of-core computation (I use it frequently). What is the size of the Parquet file that you are using? - I can't find the details in you previous comments.

The model provides verbose answers even when I asked for more succinct ones. It still struggles with arithmetic (for example, it incorrectly stated "7739 % 23 = 339 exactly, making 23 a divisor"). When tested with questions in Fre
