Germany does that too.

Especially minced meat always is “use by” and you really should respect that. Someone I know went to the hospital for that.

Yea, recently I set up immich and while it’s solving a way more narrow (image and video library) problem it’s so much more responsive and felt much more “put together”.

Hmmm I never had a problem finding what I want with public sources. Maybe my tastes in media are not refined enough.

There is no incentive but I also seed everything I download until at least ratio 2 but mostly without a cap especially obscure stuff.

I also like to not even use public trackers instead relying solely on the mighty distributed hash table (DHT) to find peers.

I never understood why people prefer private trackers.

Work with medical data in Germany and you’ll burn CDs every day, probably for the next 50 years.

The hero we need

Btw I didn’t down vote you.

Your reply begs the question which definition of AI you are using.

The above is from Russells and Norvigs “Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach” 3rd edition.

I would argue that from these 8 definitions 6 apply to modern deep learning stuff. Only the category titled “Thinking Humanly” would agree with you but I personally think that these seem to be self defeating, i.e. defining AI in a way that is so dependent on humans that a machine never could have AI, which would make the word meaningless.

What algorithm are you referring to?

The fundamental idea to use matrix multiplication plus a non linear function, the idea of deep learning i.e. back propagating derivatives and the idea of gradient descent in general, may not have changed but the actual algorithms sure have.

For example, the transformer architecture (that is utilized by most modern models) based on multi headed self attention, optimizers like adamw, the whole idea of diffusion for image generation are I would say quite disruptive.

Another point is that generative ai was always belittled in the research community, until like 2015 (subjective feeling would need meta study to confirm). The focus was mostly on classification something not much talked about today in comparison.

Just fyi the may I have some oats meme is a few years old now

A few libraries come to mind immediately: fftw (I think the most widely used fft library) or GMP (I think the most used multi precision library).

Of course it’s a sport. Multiple sports even. It takes skill, training and effort to be good at shooting. There are many different shooting sports.

Of course just blindly firing a weapon is not a sport itself. Just as blindly kicking a ball is no sport.

Why do you think shooting is no sport?

What do you mean with that comment?
