The continent of America is called 美洲, as in “the beautiful continent”

Comprehension is functional programming too, they arise from list monad https://www.schoolofhaskell.com/school/starting-with-haskell/basics-of-haskell/13-the-list-monad And Haskell do notation indeed reads top-down, unlike Python, but I find both quite readable.

Engineers can laterally move to more prestigious or challenging projects if they prove worthy based on their skills and connections. One former staffer tells WIRED that this made the company feel like a meritocracy where the best people, and the best ideas, naturally rise to the top.

I am very interested in the culture and psychology of these supposed “meritocratic” companies. Personally, I don’t believe we have a reasonable approximation of the hyper-efficient merit-based resource allocation that is promoted by the ultra-rich.

Usually I find these so-called “meritocratic” policies do not encourage good ideas, but enable hyper-competitive environments.

These kind of environments likely do not support solid well-thought-out proposals; instead, pushes the quick implementation of mediocre ideas (a.k.a move fast and break things). A hyper-competitive environment can also discourage collaboration, which often can be crucial to “solve the hard problems”.

And the article mentions that this environment boosts employee retention, which I find extremely interesting. I wonder if the constant competitions can keep triggering a sense of “winning” and “accomplishment” in a perhaps mundane job.

It seems like they have replied and said they won’t repel the act.

Unfortunately, even EU’s solution doesn’t support non-google-backed android.

Yeah but OP’s post is about the U.S. economy and your post is about Trump.

Even though I agree with you completely.

To be completely honest, if Google kills ROMs, I would probably just get an iPhone…

In general only click on a link if you trust the domain. A URL usually looks like this: https://first.second.third/… And only the second and the thrid word between dots are important.

For example: https://suspicious.google.com/ is in general fine, since the second and third word is google.com . However, https://lemmy.legit-lemmy.world/ is unsafe, because the second and thrid word are legit-lemmy.world, but not lemmy.world.

There are ways to smuggle unsafe asset under legit URL, usually by uploading them on google drive, github etc. The good rule of thumb is to never run anything on your computer unless you are absolutely sure it comes from trusted source, like from official website.

Official download webpage tends to have very descriptive and short URL, like

• https://zoom.us/download
• https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11/

If you see long random strings on the download webpage then it is likely unsafe, for example:

• https://drive.google.com/Bt57Fgh90jkU=

My conspricy theory is that early LLMs have a hard time figuring out the logical relation between sentenses, hence do not generate good transitions between sentences.

I think bullet point might be manually tuned up by the developers, but not inheritly present in the model; because we don’t tend to see bullet points that much in normal human communications.

more like vinegar than spicy vinegar TBH

I want to point out that macaroni and tortilla chip are not even topologically equivalent. Hence, OP’s statement is obviously ridiculous.

Well at least there is no clear conflict of interest /s

Google, despite having a track record of killing services, does have a good track record to keep their phone up-to-date. On the other hand, most other android OEMs stop frequent update after a year or two.

How do you Apache license a LLM? Do they just treat the weights as code?

I hate to disagree but IIRC deepseek is not a open-source model but open-weight?

I have recently applied for a junior computer scientist position in Europe, U.S., and China. The Chinese employer give me an offer immediately, with almost the same salary as Europe and U.S. In addition to that, the Chinese institute promised me a clear path of advancement, which is not included in my Europe and U.S. offers.

My current employer in Europe is a famously well-paying institute, but my salary is only minorly higher than my Chinese offer, in a much more expensive city than Beijing, and I have went through a lot of crap moving to Europe.

The Chinese government is investing a crap ton of money and resource into computing, while the U.S. is denying visa for top talents, I cannot imagine many people will make the same choice as I did, especially when they spent most of their lives in China.

We have these bullshits, and apparently DEI is the problem within scientific research…

LOL, their code is probably written by AI.

I am great, it is the lunar new year and I am celebrating it with my family.

I made vegan fried rice for them. Most asian haven’t had vegan fried rice, because typically fried rice involves lard and egg. However, they loved the vegan fried rice so much that my cousin asked my aunt to recreate it tonight.
