well it is svg, it is doing it from circles and lines as primitives, it wants to do it simply and kind of builds the whole thing hierarchically. Making it 3d is way more complicated (as the POV example shows) and the prompt doesn't say

You haven't searched hard enough then. At some point Google gets suspicious of your persistent searches and makes you solve captchas and puts cooldowns on your searches.

Respect to 2, don't you just look up at the start of the (gregorian) year when stuff is? I mostly do that in my country just to check when the holy friday holiday is, a few saint holidays, a couple of celebrations for the virgin mary,

It would work until you need to route an international call. And there's a lot of telemarketing and scams happening across country lines. I mean, they should still do it. It's just the first problem they'd face.

I have to assume that unless the cost of buying at costco and driving back home is higher than buying it all at amazon and having it delivered. The total price + driving cost is a good proxy for how efficient the whole process is; amazon wi

So how do you trace the boards? I am assuming that you put the board at the correct angle on the floor, let it go over the upper entry floor, use a ruler to extend the line of the wall over to the board, trace that, cut it, then reverse the

Maybe they could have included an option to switch between GC implementations, like Java had done before. Maybe in all those years they could have thought of that.

I honestly doubt this; very few companies have enough data. Maybe we could see mergers so it happens but basically it would mean everyone would need to be Google sized for it to work.

Very few people are going to play this on a CRT, tho. And even if you included a CRT shader, most people will turn it off. It's ok to pine for the old techniques, but this is a game made for a Genesis in modern times. It has to stride

This is great but keep in mind that Go allows the programmer skip these invariants in various ways. I wish Go had a serious type system. Never mind algebraic types, but one that fucking respected private values and did things like validatin

Newer, more expensive console runs better than older, cheaper one. Insane.

I will give you 4. 1, 2 and 3 happened a ton in the good old times before AI. If anything, we can make the code be more tested than before, but that requires a lot more engineering, that is made easier by LLMs. It's just we haven'

Don't say single nine, it sounds ugly and bad. Say five eights of reliability. Maybe six.

Worst case, meta will sue the programmer who produced infringing code. I mean if the code is not copyrighteable that does not mean anything; it's just public domain code except that meta will just use good old security by obscurity to

Surely there are existing rails right now that could be transformed into a bullet train line. Like properties and regulations are a true problem, but it's not like trains don't exist at all in America.

I mean they could just feed the solutions into the training data. Then suddenly the bot will do real good at HLE.

You are not telling the whole story. You can mix indentation and braces to delimit blocks. It's insane.

Dunno about Xcode, but if you put a go compiler in there, I doubt it will compile or run slowly. Some dependencies may require C, but you could avoid that mostly.

Have you ever looked at a dollar bill in your life. Who do you think printed it. Who signed the bill? The US can just print money and receive goods in exchange of literal paper. Or just put an extra zero in a bank account and receive goods

No company ever got a man to the Moon. Sure, some companies participated in the process. But it was a government that did it. It's been more than 50 years and private companies haven't been able to match it. The greatest technical

Conservatives discovered a cheat code to get: (a) people to have to identify on the computer everywhere and (b) control what they can do with and without this identification. Of course they are copying the play everywhere.

This whole thing is the problem. AngularJS was released in 2010. If in 2010 I'd know that the damn thing would die in 2021, and that I would have to rewrite it all by that date, I would not have used the damn thing in the first place.

Great job! A problem I found was that getting at a local bus station at London, showed all their destinations as London, but without any precise place of where I would arrive. At one point I traveled from one part of London, to Bash, a comp

Well yes, but the coincidence that Quarks have charges of multiples of another particle, that is not made up of quarks, should rise your brow, shouldn't it? Like we could accept coincidences if at the bottom is all turtles, but here we
