Embrace stupidity, get tired of winning.

I've got the impression that blowing your nose hard would push mucus into the sinuses. But it's hard to avoid blowing altogether. If I'm badly blocked, I start with neti to get things flowing better. In fact I do Neti every morning anyway, but you can do it a few times a day if needed.

Clearly someone was boned to build an inference engine in 9 months. Training might take a while, but it'll be way more flexible than any GPU.

I recently watched a documentary on the British space program, and I recall someone saying something like "this project needs more engineers and fewer boffins". So "boffin" is specifically a scientist in an ivory tower, much like "egghead" in US slang.

I don't think Microsoft will let something as trivial as primality to get in the way of their quantum computing research. REAL men can roundhouse-kick any number into factors if they so desire.

"The obvious mathematical breakthrough would be development of an easy way to factor large prime numbers." -- Bill Gates, The Road Ahead (1995)

REAL men kept a web diary before the word "blog" was coined. OTOH, if "blog" means something where others can comment on posts, then to me Slashdot is the original "blog", again a couple of years before the word.

From the summary:

IOW, they're sticking with their marketing pitch.

That's no longer the American Way (if it ever was).

Wind is part of the cause, but the GS itself is an ocean current.

The Digital Euro isn't just another payment network. It's money issued by the European Central Bank, and so private banks cannot inflate it via fractional reserve lending. This is one reason why private banks oppose it. To me, it sounds like a welcome step back from debt-based money.

The reported drop ins SpaceX is understandable given the recent IPO.

As for most of the others, is a 2% drop significant?

In a free country, "too big to fail" is to big to be allowed.

I'm not from the future. It's just that time is cyclical.

There are various hypotheses to explain it, such that the universe is cyclical or that we're stuck in a time loop. But the most broadly accepted hypothesis is that a prior civilization collapsed at the end of year 32,767, and it has taken us almost 35,000 years to get back to where we are now.

Of course, our calendar doesn't allow for a year 0, so we may have an off-by-one error. But then again people celebrated the millennium at the end of 1999, so maybe there's a tacit assumption that there was in fact a year 0.
 

Actually, I like watching the stunt men and special effects.

Nah, they're just jealous that other people's fuckups have been dominating the news, and they want some of that old-fashioned media love too.
