?
And then the stuff that is a lot harder to refactor because you would need to change code in a lot of places, and the places that need to be changed aren't clear. That's probably more the proper design of a codebase stuff.
I can solve some math problems/write some proofs, but I wouldn't call myself a mathematician.
It's about if you do it for a living, and this guy mostly has some fun side projects.
Don't think this guy is qualified to comment on ChatGPT taking over, like another comment was saying.
Do you think for most people, fixing little bugs is very compelling, or do you think it could be that people are stressed and don't want to get fired.
I suffered through writing classes for years and it made me hate writing.
It was only when I started journaling that I started liking it, and liking that I got better at it.
Is it worth making students better at writing if it means as adults they'll not want to write again?
Scientific reasoning is a relatively new phenomenon on top of the old way.
Interestingly, scientific reasoning is getting so prevalent that people don't imagine the old way existed...
I would prefer the price of onions - seems like the price is a lot more stable other than a few points out of the year where it is very high. For those times, I could choose to have a small store of onions or go without.
For the price of corn, if the price is high, chances are it will be high for a while, so I'll have to go without for a while...
What do other people think?
If not, then being able to more doesn't matter, other than perhaps insinuating that it's everyone's fault for not going.
That seems to cover all your cases?
I'm not sure that's the case, especially in high dimensions.
The expected value of the absolute value n random variables, uniform [-1,1], grows with n. I'm pretty sure it's proportional to the sqrt of n.
Also, random walks in high dimension return to zero with probability zero, so the sum of random variables in high dimensions going close to zero seems unlikely as well.
