A soundtrack so good they made three separate soundtracks. The last one was entirely music that wasn’t in the movie. Fantastic.

The 90s was a time when computers were doubling in speed every 18 months. I remember office 97* being lightning fast on. A 366mhz celeron - a cheap chip in 1998. You could build fast software today by simply adopting a reference platform, s

According to Wikipedia “ JetBrains, initially called IntelliJ Software,[9][10] was founded in 2000 in Prague by three Russian software developers:” My understanding is that they had the Czech business location with Russian developers so the

Oh okay. I thought you had something negative to say about thoughtworks. I’ve known a few people who worked there and thought there was some messy business i didn’t know about.

Jetbrains is Russian. They relocated to Czech to wash their face.

If cr is old tech any keywords for what is new/current tech? I’m not sure your second point is true. The vast vast majority of classified information is very boring, or operational like frequencies of radar, etc. Both sides know the ba

I have a copy of the original cognitive radar papers. You can find most of them, the real work is doing a real world implementation. I’m not aware of any computer science breakthroughs required for the f35.

I expect knowing this new f35 deliveries will have hardware just different enough to need new software. Move a few flags around in a few registers and for all practical purposes it’s stuck.

Swedish griphen e/d variants use an American engine. Possibly other avionics idk. So those will be grounded after few months into a conflict. I expect a crash program to reengineer them has already started if only unofficially.

So what (if anything) is taking strangeloops’ place?

I’ll add when I say “learning” I mean memorization. Memorizing on a higher level than facts. I would love to spend the time and see how altering the query alters the reasoning path. How firm is in the path once it’s chosen? A high level app

What I further got from this is the models are learning the methods, but not evaluating themselves along the way. They don’t check for errors. So once they go down a path they can’t properly backtrack. This feels like the ground truth I’ve

It's interesting that you note the unreliability. I always assumed tubes were unreliable, but thought anything solid state (even those card based systems) would be "reliable enough" to start taking for granted. But then you l

Sorry, I should have said “Import more Ukrainians “. For exactly the reasons you mention. They’ll fit right in.

I have the book “planning in the user” somewhere packed away. I remember it speaking about the number of variables and size of the problem in it. Sorry I don’t remember the numbers off the top of my head. Obviously it didn’t work out though
