Yes I understand that, but if that is what is meant I find the wording to be somewhat strange. They mention not being able to find a "feasible mapping from software to hardware", and later on "some of the constraints may not

"However, the manifold of architecture search generally contains many points for which there is no feasible mapping from software to hardware." I'm having some trouble understanding how this manifests itself. Can someone help

I think you might want to look at something like Solid[0]. It resembles your idea, but is more general. People host their data in a personal data store (a pod, which can be either self-hosted or by a 3rd party) and Web applications read to&

The network seems exciting but it definitely needs a less confusing explanation. Or at least an explanation that does not require prior knowledge of (what seem like) niche concepts. > "It surfaces content related to the node you&#x

Great stuff. Well witten notes with clear and extensive examples. I actually used this just a few months ago to pass my calculus exam. Feel like I learnt a lot more than from my overly dense and formal textbook.

That's actually an NP-complete problem, called the Dominating Set problem[0]. One application of this problem is used in OLSR[1], a routing protocol used in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (MANET). To see how it is useful for MANETs, you can lo

It does remind me of the Real World repository [0]. It is basically a Medium clone implemented in tons of different frontend and backend frameworks. Probably not exactly what you were looking for, since it's more related to the framewo

From the guidelines on what to submit to HN: "If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity." This does not fit that criterion.

Turns out, I really didn't think this through. Thanks for the correction.

Yes, but nowhere is it implied that it is because of something inherent to coffee. It probably could have been another delicious drink, like hot chocolate. That doesn't diminish the content of this article though.

Naively, it seems to me that as long as the profit you get out of mining scales linearly with the amount of money you put in, the richest player will eventually control all of the hash rate. Yet this doesn't seem to be the case (so far

Not sure if you meant it that way, but this comment comes across as very bitter.

That's odd. When you scroll past the article the URL is rewritten to just https://www.asiaone.com . I wonder what would be the benefit of that.

I'm not sure what you mean by "You can't off-load error-correction". In the case of classical computing, we do off-load error-correction (I don't have to worry about bit flips while typing this). In the case of quan

But is that not exactly what cheaters are doing right now? I reckon it would make less sense to implement this kind of system in games which aren't free. The price of the game disincentivizes cheating and makes consecutive iterations o

Does this imply that the PageRank algorithm I wrote for a uni assignment is actually illegal? Or does this fall under "studying it"? Note that I'm from Europe.
