I'm pretty sure that line of the article didn't mean to imply that we don't know, or aren't sure, only that it goes beyond the scope of the article and isn't directly relevant to the topic at hand.

It's really the last thing that keeps any trustworthy source from recommending switching to linux for gaming without reservation. As soon as you want to play any competitive online multiplayer games, which to my understanding is the va

According to Wikipedia, there are countably many algebraic numbers, and that makes intuitive sense to me as well. Do you have a source that the set of algebraic numbers is uncountable?

An interesting thing about the quote you highlighted is that it's already true about the set of real numbers itself. The set of real numbers that can be precisely, individually identified is a countable subset of all real numbers. That

If they provide something of value to their audience, they can take money from their audience, in exchange for that value. If they do not provide value for their audience, them ceasing to exist is not a loss for society.

I don't have a strong opinion in the matter, but the argument is that banning things don't automatically make them go away. Banning things that people want to do will make organized crime spring up around it, which is often worse.

If the point of this exercise is to create a game that removes first move advantage, while keeping the game as unchanged as possible, this is an utter failure. Turning a game of perfect information into a bluffing and anticipation game is n

From your FAQ: "While this is a beta product, our tests show it to be about 82% accurate." What does this mean? Is it the true positive rate? The true negative rate? An average of the two? An average weighted by frequency?

Ah, that's the possibility I wasn't thinking of. Thank you.

I admit that while I do regularly play chess, I'm not super well versed in either FEN nor Chess960. That said, I've been trying to figure out why you would need a different notation for Chess960 for half an hour now, and I just ca

You're correct. In fact I'm not seeing any two probe words that will give you a definite piece of positive information, without taking into account a third word. I made my own mistake when trying to figure out this puzzle, that I

I understand this, but the person who responded said Passkeys are exactly the same as SSH and used the same, when asked what they are. If that was true, then we would just teach non-technical users to use SSH Keys.

If they are exactly like SSH keys, then why not just keep using SSH keys. Clearly, there is something else to them.

This is exactly it. The purpose of web forums is communication that you want to reach people right now (if you don't already have a well established platform). Most of it is information that, if it has any value at all (I think it does

Here is the thing with that. Technically every individual instance of a problem is decidable. It's only in the universal case that they become undecidable. Take the halting problem for example. Imagine two algorithms for determining if

This is just a simple classification problem, the prime application for basic neural networks. Using a general text generation system for this seems like complete overkill. Just a bunch of wasted resources.

I think the person you replied to was being sarcastic. They were pointing out that the ideas presented in the movie are anything but generic for major blockbuster movies.

Is the idea that someone would genuinely appreciate the artistry of an earnest movie without clever self-aware memable moments really that unthinkable to you?

What? You were the one that equated cultural impact with quotable lines. The fact that memability doesn't equal cultural impact is exactly the point I was making.
