I can't shake the feeling that this is a bit like asking how someone got shot during a game of Russian Roulette. You have a bullet in the chamber and you roll, of course shooting the bullet may be a possible outcome. LLMS with an acces

A lot of it has to do with communications. The times I (as a programmer myself) have witnessed how companies we asked to write software tackled it was eye opening in a negative sense. As a freelancer my process involves a lot of observation

Why would the world feel the need to compromise when all UN countries, except for one agree on the projection. The solution is simply to ignore the minority, especially if it has a government that itself has always refused to compromise wit

Yes, which is precisely what I said, in different words. Now hardware iterative cycles are different than in software, where you can just define perfect interfaces and get a lossless roundtrip between them. In hardware you always have loss,

Seriously, US: Is this the "freedom" I keep hearing about? My 5 year old nieces all walked to school alone, in a mid sized city. As do most 5 year olds in my country, because we want them to grow into adults with the capability to

XR hardware needs actors , this is about sensors . An actor that changes temperature is a heater or maybe something like a peltier element, that can heat and cool. A sensor is the opposite: a thermometer that measures what temperature is

The variables aren't that hard to learn. The one thing many beginners struggle with is that they don't really get the principles involved. They treat a soldering iron as some sort of heated paint brush and wonder why they can'

How do you usually remember uuids or hashes if you have to? Many people basically just read the start and the end and compare that, given the huge collision space. I find 51ac0759fc4d far less memorable than kalo-tadu-komu-tigi. Also if I h

My guess would be that the best solution is multi sensorial anyways. So you have GPS, but then you would have an Inertial Measurement Unit, based purely on acceleration and inertia, radar and barometric systems and maybe optical systems fo

Ot to rain on your parade. But I made videos, songs and pictures, wrote stories back in ca. 2006 when I was 16 and read my first AI book. Without AI. I see AI as a useful tool, but doing art with it is extremely bland compared to the real t

Your comment got downvoted, because on this site it is frowned upon to write lazy, confrontative and uninformative comments. If you don't have an argument that furthers the discussion consider not writing instead. Simple systems have t

It might be seen as this ideologic thing, but I don't think it is to the degree many people believe. I have lived in Iceland. Most Icelanders are pretty open-minded and an astounding amount of them have lived abroad for at least a year

Well, depends. Maybe it can go up to 900mph¹? ¹ drivers are responsible to get the car into a low earth orbit themselves and need to be familiar with the orbital maneuvers needed to accelerate the car to 900mph

Good thing they never claimed to be writing in that style then. Not sure what you're working yourself up over here. Authors are allowed to write about a method of writing without having to apply it themselves.

Yes, it should be illegal. The default expectation when you buy a device should be that something as simple as a power supply can be replaced. I could agree with you if products that fail with the regulation have to put these shortcomings f
