You are literally describing the fundamental problem of truth in philosophy and acting as if it's different because a computer is involved at one step in the chain.

At my lab, a positive culture is viewed as a very bad sign. So bad in fact that it may necessitate IV antibiotics.

Show me one assistant who can promise they are right 100% of the time and I will show you one liar. Copilot & Copilot Chat cut down my coding time on a brand-new ML optimizer that was released in a paper last week from what would have b

It does not. Regular ChatGPT without plugins does not have access to any tools. Throw it a script with some weird outputs and it'll definitely fail, every time. While the script 'evaluation' stuff can be pretty decently impre

Researchers unaffiliated with Facebook are allowed to possess and use the original weights though, and they can make use of these weights.

After I finished it myself, I ran it through ChatGPT (and Davinci, but that largely failed.) It generated part 1 perfectly, but it was unable to make the jump into the three compartment intersections without significant prompting, and the f

Oh, the software is absolutely awful, and you're spot on about the metadata (and the CBH format as a whole,) but I would also toss in another point where it's (sadly) the best: Opening prep. There just isn't much else that ca

Yes. Every single serious chess master uses Chessbase as it has the largest database available out there even though the price is pretty obscene. The customer base is more dedicated than most and it's probably the single most important

Eventually it may be a contributor to a commercialization, but now it makes it a target for research for others. This isn't patenting anything, it's scientists saying 'this is an important bit when it comes to the effects of

Provably there's little that can be said about chess at large when it comes from opening to endgame. Heuristically speaking though matching moves against even a beginner is a very bad strategy for play, as a recent speedrun being done

By your logic would we suddenly lose consciousness/sentience if we gained complete knowledge of our own bodies and brains? What if at a sub-quantum level everything decomposes to a simple turing machine? Not understanding how conciousn

I fully admit I could be wrong, and I didn't explain myself adequately re: ETM. ETM has been enabled since Vista, but you can get a full list of all ETS logs very easily (via `logman query -ets`). The question is what's consumin

I did some reading through the code to understand what was going on here. After a brief read, it appears that most of this telemetry code is only enabled when ETW (Event Tracing for Windows) is enabled. https://github.com/mi

It's doubtful. The asymmetry between theory and scale has been shrinking on most fronts when it comes to the government. The government certainly has brilliant scientists on its payroll and in the past has been able to shove resources

For alcohol that may be true, but the ultimate goal of SMART is sobriety. There is another (smaller) branch of REBT drug-based therapy called 'Rational Recovery' that uses naltrexone (an opiate blocker) before drinking to reduce t

For anyone who wants a more evidence-based approach to addiction than 12-step programs, SMART recovery might do the trick for you. It helped me greatly with my alcohol addiction, and it doesn't treat addiction as a forever thing. I&#x2

The OP said 'generic symptoms.' There are no prescription drugs for 'generic symptoms', they must have a specific approved use and they must be mentioned verbally in the commercial. Here is the evidence to the contrary:

I can categorically say that is untrue. While not a fan of direct pharmaceutical marketing, the FDA has strict rules about what needs to be in an advertisement. Chiefly, it must address: * At least one approved use for the drug (the actual

I recall a documentary from years ago about training in Indian call centers, and they'd have experts come in to train people in accents on a regular basis. Presumably due to the amount of call center outsourcing that's done in the
