We also use technology to care for the people in medicine and it requires pretty advanced science and engineering. Doesn't that shred your argument?

OP was talking about this: https://www.math.uwaterloo.ca/~hwolkowi/matrixcookbook.pdf Look into some examples of the section 2.4 "Derivatives of Matrices, Vectors and Scalar Forms"

I took it in good faith I just think that: - the overregulation narrative conflates two different problems - and that you minimized too much the consumer benefits of EU legislation I think the overregulation problem olis less that we have 2

Do you believe I can't get a list of 20 effective pro-consumer regulations drafted by the EU out of Gemini?

This was an half usefull joke. I can still make it with the exterior unit off for an extra 1 or 2 degrees with just the interior unit blowing during the day and the use the AC to cool during the night when it is more efficient. In any case

You can use your AC as a fan when it is not too bad.

if our agent wants to book a journal entry to cash accounts for a client, it MUST provide receipt and directly link the transaction from the clients bank feed And that rule is encoded in the CLI?

by pdhborges 25d ago
So you still have CLIs but they have I presume an help command that describes the capabilities right. Could you give an example of an accounting guardrail you created?

Sorry to bother but is there hope we are going to see Practical Math for Programmers published any time soon?

Is this the book you are referring to? https://epubs.siam.org/doi/book/10.1137/1.9781611977448 . It has 991 pages, not exactly what I would call concise.

What large parts of the world? Some places in Canada, the US, an handfull of countries in Europe, Autralia plus a few hotspots in SEA?

Sure in the US. But people are throwing token caps in 500, 1000, 2000 dollar range here. That is a very significant expense on top of salary, taxes and benefis. It's only justifiable if they observe 20% 30% or more productivity increas

You have people in Spain and Portugal hiring juniors at 25k per year.

by pdhborges 1mo ago
I took into account all of that. Still ridiculous.

by pdhborges 1mo ago
10 grand a month for a junior is absolutely ridiculous in most of the world including large swats of the western world.

For someone who has not tried these desktop apps: what is the the advantage versus cli codex with some MPCs and multiple folders each one with their context files?

I'm also surprised. In Portugal primary, middle and high school tests and exams are all proctored and the vast majority of them written by hand.

Touch billing, touch medical data, be at a B2B company that needs to catch all the ISOs to have a chance to land bigger contracts. I don't think it's uncommon.

Are you willing to pay to learn remotely from a university with crappy reputation?

I have a hard time believe their time is worth less than $75/hr or so. In many places in Europe it is.

Can you imagine scenarios that would make it less silly? I will give an example: - The AI researcher might be working for a lab or company with much less funds than the top dogs. Are they likely to discover something that is worth it before

To be honest none of these problems feels remotely "solvable" beyond having a ton of knobs and engineering tradeoffs like we already have now. In a sense they don't seem very exciting because all of this required generality.

At least in europe you can do a 3 year Eng Phys BSc and if it doesn't pan out you can do a master in EE or MEng.

Maybe people believe that the process complexity is not symetric. I don't blame them. Building an house is more complex than destroying it.

Well whether it's better or worse depends on your specific situation. What I'm facing right now is a 10 year monolith modularized with applications. Like a sibling comment already discussed these applications are not reusable appl

You don't have to put all your modules into a single file. You can break them into multiple files and the import them into a model file just so that Django loads it from the expected location. Instead of apps you can just split your co

- Django apps are an anitipattern for large internal / single purpose products due to migration overhead as FKs cross application boundaries Totally agree with this. Now we have thousands of unsquashable migrations that require
