addressing any of the points would require locking the AI down and making it less general and less "agentic". Your concerns make sense if you look at the AI as an information retrieval engine. - why is single URL crawl with

Is there a nautical map equivalent of osm or organic maps? One that emphasizes waterways by drawing them thicker when zoomed out like regular maps draw roads thicker? Plan routes over the water? Even google maps lacks a nautical layer.

Because you can deduplicate certain parts of the logic which make the whole thing less error prone, such as if c x=1 else x=2 If I ever want to change x, or refactor this code some other way, its a more brittle proc

Why would the company pay more when they can just not pay more? The only things I can see happening is they might lower prices as competition ramps up, or in general as there is more supply for the same cost.

Everyone else will be 5% more productive. Then no one is "more" productive. So everyone has a higher output, but the same wages and hours worked. There was only a gap when usable AI first came out, some contractors could do the sa

The issue is how easy computers make everything, and how well processes scale with computers. Back in the day to heist data you'd have to physically break in or infiltrate, rummage through files, copy them somehow or just straight up t

I agree. I tend to use the gnu "asprintf" which simply returns a properly allocated char buffer with the formatted string in it. And on platforms that don't feature asprintf (windows) you can build your own using sprintf!

The accumulator pattern keeps simulations stable in the face of variable frame rate. Accumulate the frame dt into an accum variable. If accum>fixed_physics_dt then step_physics until false. I'm assuming the author did something like

I'll change your mind: If you pass NULL as the destination pointer, it doesn't write any string. If you combine this with %n at the end of the format string, you can get the exact length that the output string would be. Then you a

That's just dividend stocks with more shady. We promise to invest the dividend you would have gotten into ourselves to become more valuable bro. But that will only be reflected in "valuations" that don't directly affect

In my experience fiddling with compute shaders a long time ago, cuda and rocm and opencv are way too much hassle to set up. Usually it takes a few hours to get the toolkits and SDK up and running that is, if you CAN get it up and running. T
