Not related to the novel, but what is the current biggest technological challenge to asteroid mining?

Well I hope they release the 5700X soon. I was excited for Zen 3, but their price bump and lack of a middle ground option left me conflicted whether I should shell out more money for a 5800X or get a last gen CPU.

Just read wikipedia. [0] is also a good high-level overview of the different algorithms in metaheuristics.

Well GP is not random search, but still, the space is too huge for it to find anything of significance yet. I remember reading a paper that trained GP to write a sorting program, that is around the most complex problem we can solve with it now.

In my opinion, what makes natural selection work but not GP, is that the life time of Earth and the number of individuals existed vastly exceeds the typical parameters of a GP simulation. Biological programs are also less likely to be killed off by a mutation compared to GP programs, so in some ways, the gradient is a lot smoother.

Genetic programming works basically the same as the other genetic algorithms, except that the individuals are variable size programs, whereas GA uses fixed length values like a vector.

* 5 years of experience in programming strategic-communication

It is important to note that it is 50% performance improvement per watt, not absolute performance.

Just here to thanks Evan (and friends) for building such an awesome technology.

Author here. This library is for people who are only using the icons without bootstrap. I know BootstrapVue can do this as well but I dislike pulling in a massive library just to use a few icons.

Plus this works with Vue 3.

More interestingly, Github can view and diff 3D .stl files.

Difference to pyimgui?

Narrow AI has made a lot of progress in recent years, but in my opinion we are completely lost regarding AGI.

Squatting atg is just not very common to start with.

The JSON library is probably a C-extension so PyPy won't make it any faster.

What kind of portfolio worthy projects take less than 3 hours to create?

Normal sense is thrown out the window when people see a chance to get free money. And it's not that hard to buy bitcoin is it?

There are a few chrome extensions for adding custom CSS. Try "stylebot" or "User javascript and css", they both works ok.

Congratulations to the Zulip team, this release looks awesome!

I always read clang as "C-lang", then heard a LLVM developer said "cling". I feel like if the pronunciation is not obvious, the project should at least specify it somewhere offically.

Also, NGINX is pronounced "engine X".

Slightly off topic, but i7/i9 is in trouble right now against AMD Ryzen chips. Laptops with Ryzen 7 4000H series CPUs are faster and cheaper than top of the line Intel chips.

That's what the government says, but not what they actually do. Here in Hong Kong, police fires tear gas directly into people's (tiny) apartment just for opening the window to take a peek outside.

A nation in 50 years sounds like an Elon timescale. More likely a small settlement of <100 people for research and exploration.

I haven't looked at it in detail, but from what I gathered from the README, it just seems like a very simple form of linear genetic programming (with only mutation and no crossover).

This is, in essence, a monkey trying to lower a cost function by randomly manipulating an input AST (empty for synthesis). So theoretically it will be able to produce any program, just not in a reasonable time frame.

Sublime doesn't really use Skia anymore, as per this (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23312357) comment.

This same guy also made the Draw.io extension :)

Building a chrome extension to block spoilers on youtube. Got frustrated with "Spoiler Protection 2.0" since it doesn't cover the thumbnails. For some type of contents (ie combat sports/MMA), the thumbnail basically gives away the results.

I was just playing around with Iced yesterday, it is indeed very nice. I wish it has better docs though.

But the value he provides to the world is (in my opinion) more than 40x the average person.

Netlify CMS is a headless CMS, you can display your content in plain text if you want. React is only needed in the authoring interface.
