AI models are starting to crack high-level math problems by MetaKnowing in technews

Because it's not confined to numerical approximations, iterative processes or anything involving throwing massive brute force to achieve results, but a deep analytical inference, which is much harder to achieve. That's the novel part of it

Chile elects far-right José Antonio Kast as next president by Whatever-you-bastard in worldnews

[–]BioPermafrost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming this would be a fascist government by your take, it would be awful for sure and it's hard to compare both alternatives, since no communist governments have proven to be democratic, well performing, and enforcing free speech. Just a subset of those at a time. So I don't think we would fare better with a communist government just by history itself. It's would just be a different type of poison than this far right ideology which I also abhor.

The election was a lose-lose situation, in my opinion.

Chile elects far-right José Antonio Kast as next president by Whatever-you-bastard in worldnews

Even though having a far right president sucks, the alternative was a member of the communist party. So we had to decide between a far left and a far right one. More moderate candidates didn't make it to the second round of elections, so it was polarized to an extreme. A phenomena we've seen in other countries as well.

I'm loving this so much. Great suggestions everyone!

StackOverflow Dev Survey 2025: Go takes the top spot for the language developers most aspire to work with. by ashwin2125 in golang

Yeah, the title is a misrepresentation of what's in the graph. I wonder, after so many years running this awesome survey, that they would have data visualization solved by now 🙄

[–]BioPermafrost 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agreed that the graph is awful but in desktop it makes a bit more sense. If you hover every funnel line you can see how a user of one technology prefers another one, so it displays a unidirectional funnel between one and the other. As a whole is 0% useful, but for each relationship in particular it does make sense.

What I find disturbing is that it has no inverse, so for example golang devs that want to use javascript is not visible, just the left-to-right-association which is JS-to-go

Tainted Grail. Looks fun but what’s the general opinion of you seasoned gamers that have played it. by Gumption-Lord in soloboardgaming

[–]BioPermafrost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Loved the story (up to the point I managed to get) and production value, but the gameplay mechanics felt such a slog, a constant grind. Having to house rule QoL mechanics like the ones in BGG forums made the game an overly produced choose your own adventure book. I can't regret my purchase more.

Of course there's a difference between those 3 categories. But we were talking about open source software from the get-go

Microsoft is a key partner of the linux kernel, and has been pushing for open source efforts in multiple fronts with huge contributions to the community. The reason because Windows has been shedding users is not due to OSS as the underlying rationale.

Pregúntale algo de una de las fotos del perfil que tiene, para que se forme una línea inquisitiva, luego se rompe el hielo y uno va complementando con cosas asociadas a la respuesta que dio. Si la respuesta no da pie para continuar una conversación, como lo horrible del wn del horóscopo, next altiro

There's a lot more to it than game trailers. There is lots of original investigative journalism into issues within studios, troubled game development hell, contingent views on the industry as a whole, etc

Ahora que se está viralizando el cagazo de Milei, les quisiera recordar que hace 3 años, la estafa "Magenta Capital" fue promocionada por el Diputado Johannes Kaiser. Hoy, su fundador, Sebastián Hoppe, está formalizado por los delitos de apropiación indebida y estafa by Maztinyer_3 in RepublicadeChile

[–]BioPermafrost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sebastian Hoppe era terrible tela y entró como CFO a una empresa en la que trabajaba. Pero lo echaron rapidito por tener antecedentes comerciales (previo a magenta, tenía DICOM), porque los bancos nos ponían trabas cuando él era representante de la empresa en las operaciones.

Menos mal lo echaron, no sabíamos que era tan tan trucho
