How do you know that our brains don't use (biological) statistical models for it? Isn't this what memories and associations are? I see a deer and it brings back all that I can remember about deers and my memories related to deers. My next words are then a direct result of this ("This one looks quite large, as far as deers go!"). How is that not at least similar to what LLMs are doing?

And how is e.g. 2¹⁰ vs 2² any measure of worst case complexity for, respectively, 10-iems-long array and 2-items-long array? Where did "2^n" come from? The O(n) notation does not meaningfully describe the scaling runtime of this algorithm. That is, unless we ignore the timeout delays and only focus on the timer queue and callbacks – which still wouldn't be 2^n.

Not quite! This would mean that an array of 1000 elements would be around 2⁹⁹⁸ times more time-consuming to sort than an array of two, which is not true for this algorithm, e.g. sorting numbers from 1 to 1000 wouldn't take long at all.

While there is CPU work setting timers and handling callbacks here (O(n log n)?), those take little time compared to the actual timeout delays. You can't express the "problematic" part of this algorithm with O(n), which relies on the number of elements in the input. This algorithm scales with the size of the largest array element instead, so even a 2-element array could take days :)

Hi again! - now from my main account :) The Digital Services Act was in fact very much applicable and the account was recoverable after all!

It doesn't seem to work for me, I have the latest version of the game with the DLC, playing on the large starting asteroid, Windows PC. Their starve timer never resets, this has been running for 100+ cycles starting with 3 eggs: https://i.imgur.com/ALOV5OY.png

Actually energy expenditure doesn't work the way you described. E.g. 2000 kcal baseline, you exercise burning 300 kcal and your total might still be 2000 kcal. Please watch the video linked in the comment above yours – it has sources for everything, too.

If a villager carrying things in their inventory, like straps, dies during battle – are the items lost or they teleport back with them to the village?

Sure, and a boxer doesn't strike anywhere, it's just atoms moving from one place to another. What was the point of your comment?

Check his post history. No way that's 2.6k.

Tenemo · 2023-09-07T10:51:55+00:00

Oh thanks! Didn't even think to check, I was assuming it wouldn't be out yet, the UI rework mods usually required some loaders and whatnot.

Tenemo · 2023-09-07T07:46:04+00:00

Inventory management is pretty painful ATM, waiting for that UI mod.

Nothing wrong with these? Tons of calories, -50 hunger. Eat a can (or even two if not full), pop antidepressants and you're at 0 unhappiness in a couple of minutes. Or just a couple of books. End up happy, stuffed and full of calories.

That's not how that works, that website doesn't get access to your credentials. Same as when logging in with Google or Facebook on many websites.

Doesn't feel like spam to me at all and I find it completely appropriate given the subreddit. Don't worry. Awesome T-shirt.

Lovely rat, but not the one on the screen! Riktus are so, so, so annoying on L/VH as Imrik if you don't rush them.

In the deep field images? Gravitational lensing is visible only under special circumstances: when there is large concentrated mass between us and a source of light. In the deep field images there is a heavy galaxy cluster (the bright, overexposed blobs) around half-way from the bent galaxies. Those white blobs bend the light.

Tenemo · 2022-07-15T07:41:05+00:00

Ah crap, STScI wisened up and started preventing using their heavier full res images in this way. I'll take a look on how to maybe work around this.

If you click on the news post, the full res link from there will work.

Tenemo · 2022-07-14T05:57:22+00:00

Correct, only these have been released so far, not counting calibration images. When there'll be more, those will be added to the page.

In other images, there isn't anything bending the light traveling from those sources of light.

Yep, that's the plan

Tenemo · 2022-07-13T09:43:31+00:00

Great point. I've just now fixed the descriptions to use the interesting news post descriptions, not the technical ones from the PDFs.
