I think you nerds need to stop reading obsolete academic fad papers from 1985. Imagine if your girlfriend was unironically reading articles of Cosmo from 1985 to figure out what to wear. A computer program is a "model" of some thi

Consider yourself lucky. My public high school in Ontario was supposed to be a "magnet school for the gifted" and instead turned out to be a scam. The computer class teacher was absent for a year, and the substitute teacher insis

FYI, it would take approximately 99.3 billion years to complete the Hamiltonian circuit of the Rubik's cube’s quarter-turn metric Cayley graph using the GAN 12 Maglev UV Coated 3x3 Rubik's cube.

Can anyone explain the layout and formatting of the slides?

No. It's humour. There is no such thing as the Second Law of Thermodynamics of a Turing Machine. Unless! You turn the machine off. Then energy input equals zero, it becomes a closed system, and entropy kicks in.

Ah, Professor Vardi, a fascinating case study in our department. His devotion to the 'science' in computer science is truly something to behold. It's not every day you see someone try to reconcile Turing machines with the sec

I could have spent time getting it to generate more formulas and diagrams. It's not difficult since it generates LaTeX, but I wouldn't be able to understand them. According to ChatGPT the paper makes sense to ChatGPT but isn'

I spent the weekend running ChatGPT in a loop on a theoretical physics paper. This was the result. It seems to have come up with some type of conjecture. I'm wondering if anyone who understands Langlands program mathematics or Quantum

Honestly, I thought it was an undergrad entrance exam and was feeling sorry for Japanese high school students, before I checked the title again.

FWIW, I think GS imposes a proprietary language ("Slang") in many areas as well.

I think a rough estimate of the cost of 500MWh/year is $500 million per year. That doesn't include cooling, hardware, real-estate, staff and other operating expenses. I guess the majority of this cost is ultimately paid for by spe

I don't think this kind of thing is isolated to the tech industry. Edith Cooper at Goldman Sachs shared this recently: "I am a black woman, a mother, a wife and a professional. I am the daughter of a dentist and a sister to four s

I think a convincing refutation of the Bernoulli effect as an explanation of flight is the fact that some aircraft have symmetrical airfoils and can fly upside down. This is a less convincing argument to sailors whose boats don't usual

This is a great paper. Almost all sailors I've met still believe the Bernoulli effect misconception, even some sailmakers designing carbon fiber sails costing $100k+.

I'm excited to use VS 2017 and generally very pleased with their C++ language support and integrations like git and cmake. It's a minor nitpick, but I must say I was disappointed to see this issue unceremoniously closed: https:&#
