Same. Although finding the setting for the top-left corner is annoying, it gets easier every time.

As other commenters have said, you're just going to learn the decoder ring from context, but I'm also curious. If I take off the keycaps to clean the keyboard and then put them back, do I need to relearn the defects? If I rip out

Yeah, lots of different uses for a keyboard with wildly different frequency distributions. Writing an English letter != text chat in Spanish != data entry != league of legends. It's also not quite a substitution cipher due to modifiers

I'm no expert, but there are approaches to reinforcement learning where you build a table of the expected payoff for each scenario, and these can recursively reference other entries in the table. Take a look at Q-learning, for example.

Assuming what I wrote above is correct (I don't actually know anything about closed time-like curves), it's actually weirder than just going back in time and mailing a letter early so it arrives when you want. Specifically, once y

Maybe in general, but this is in the context of "time loop logic". Ordinarily, you can have entangled states where measuring both parts will produce the same (random) outcome. Unfortunately the outcome cannot be influenced by eith
