Me too. A good written guide is always way more effective. There rare today though :/

I meant that we use neutron breeders to turn certain fuel rod waste into fissile plutonium I think.

The difference with the Chinese invention is that you don’t need to transport the waste to a separate breeder.

I’ve always just been excited when other people are excited about it.

They’re so expensive. My parents change up what they display for Christmas between the LGB and a lego train. The actual lego train they put up changes too. They live nearby, so it’s a special enough treat for my boy and my nephew.

I mean… I’m cis white male, and that’s 100% why i went into computer engineering.

But the reality is so many people I work for and with aren’t weird outcasts and it’s… Not fun.

Idk. Model railroads have a particular place in my heart. Garden sized ones are new to me though.

I had a great uncle who had an enormous setup in his basement. As a kid I was always fascinated with it. He died when I was 13 and I wasn’t ready for that.

Aha ok. I was in America in the same time frame, and while it was more acceptable, and I had an openly gay professor, very few students were out.

Wait wait wait wait.

Don’t we already do this? Just right now we don’t do it in the same reactor?

Where did you go to school?

Or maybe a better question is when did you go to school?

I mean even right now, I know one trans woman. Possibly one crossdresser.

Plenty of LGB, I’m sure there are more trans than I’m not aware of. But we have hundreds of IT workers. Actually we may have more than a thousand.

I’m not against it, but I do worry a bit that the younger folk not in industry yet think this is more common place than it is.

It might be in silicon valley tech firms? I just know healthcare, finance, mil/aero, industrial services, and while gender identity and sexual orientation arent unknowns, any flashy display of, well, anything is generally frowned upon. Most people at work really don’t care if you dress up in drag in your off time. Nobody cares if you transitioned and have a new name, just make sure it’s updated in the HR systems and you have a new badge. And absolutely no one cares who you are sleeping with (unless it’s a coworker or supervisor, then LOTS of people care).

The power required to do it is impressive to say the least.

I guess the other option would be that the signal was created with very close proximity to the broadcast tower requiring much less power, but they probably had a limited area to search.

To me it almost reads like this was a “we technically can, let’s test it out!” And it worked.

That’s great, but then how do we know that the grammar matches what we want to do - with some sort of test?

The core language model isn’t a nueral network? I agree that the full application is more Markov chainy but I had no idea the LLM wasn’t.

Now I’m wondering if there are any models that are actual neutral networks

Oh, well, that’s good, because I have a ton of people who work with Angular and not React.

Ha

None of us would have jobs

The compressed text only dump is about 25gb.

It only grows to many terabytes if you include all revisions and media files

It’s some new mental illness? Is it just sociopathy?

Is it fried ketamine brain?

You can download Wikipedia.

Anyone can actually.

You get to actually work on your code?

Instead of 6 hours of meetings it’ll just be 8 hours of meetings

See i didn’t have that experience. I come from a long line of electrical engineers, and went to a Catholic private university.

The EEs, save for my mother, are ultraconservative. So I knew what to expect. I went for computer engineering, so my first job out of college was in a contract design services company that was mostly old white men.

When I got into my current career, which became entirely software focused, I was surprised to see such an array of conservatives, but found many more progressives than previously.

What I have observed in my 12 years of career is that the conservative individuals are very rigid black and white thinkers. In fact, when my cousin was diagnosed with autism, my uncle remarked that it was pretty weird that every engineer he met seems to fall into that diagnosis. There was already a quiet joke in the family that what they now call Autism was what they called engineers in the 60s-80s.

That’s not to say autistic individuals are more likely to be conservative - but almost every conservative engineer I know falls right into this description. Interestingly, I know that ASD also has a large crossover with the LGBTQ+ community. It would make sense to me then, that this “programming socks” meme started.

It all seems to be based around who can accept change and who cannot. This, to me, explains why there are far more progressive programmers than conservative, and the opposite is true for other engineering fields.
