You can achieve close to the same thing using uBlock element zapper, without installing extra plugins. I use the same trick for SO ('Hot Network Questions' darkpattern) and other sites.

Ha, you're right. I should've used 30,000,000. The answer it gave regarding how to do "ties to even" was still correct though: "Evenness" is decided by the least significant bit of the mantissa, not be the &quo

I built this decision tree (LightGBM) compiler last summer: https://github.com/siboehm/lleaves It get's you ~10x speedups for batch predictions, more if your model is big. It's not complicated, it ended up be

You can be very worried about the medium-term dangers of AGI even if you believed (which I don't) that consciousness could never arise in a computer system. I think it can be a useful metaphor to compare AGI to nuclear weapons. Current
