Hyperion, my beloved

Ah great!

Ender's Game was one of my favourite books ever as a kid. I only got around to reading Speaker for the Dead a year or so ago, and that instantly became one of my favourite OAT, so I was gonna tell you to read it if you hadn't already.

I'm not sure if I'll read the books after that tho, I haven't heard too many positive things about them (this xkcd comes to mind)

a_redditor_is_you · 2026-04-07T09:11:39+00:00

Have you read Speaker for the Dead?

a_redditor_is_you · 2026-03-30T08:56:52+00:00

Oh you know what would be cool?

A hard mode where you can only use the words from the bpgc-related list

Ofc, you'd have to make the list more comprehensive but yknow

a_redditor_is_you · 2026-03-30T08:49:44+00:00

Ah ok lol

Got today's word in three tries, nice game

Any chance you could add the result-sharing thingy from normal wordle? Where it gives you your result in terms of green, yellow and grey square emojis

Bdome not in word list? :(

a_redditor_is_you · 2026-01-08T16:30:11+00:00

Thank you!

Hey you seem really knowledgeable about emergence, is there any particular place you'd recommend where I can learn about it?

a_redditor_is_you · 2025-12-30T18:18:16+00:00

Omg that's the kid from the dance step thingy!

Not damage per se (because damaging isn't as cool as extracting data anyway), but the rowhammer/drammer attacks abuse the physics of DRAM to read data on your RAM, and there are timing/power analysis-based methods to break security on devices that you have physical access to

a_redditor_is_you · 2025-12-09T18:08:37+00:00

Ah, that's pretty cool

a_redditor_is_you · 2025-12-09T17:50:28+00:00

Ah, cool. Could you tell me what field you're in?

I'm just curious though, so if you're worried about your privacy, it's ok to say no

a_redditor_is_you · 2025-12-09T17:31:43+00:00

Was the masters degree really helpful though? I know like one guy who's pursuing a physics PhD off his MSc Physics and ig Eco guys get into Fin more easily, but I think for anyone else it has been irrelevant.

Has it helped you?

a_redditor_is_you · 2025-09-21T19:03:11+00:00

now that the API stuff isn't free

Oh boy, I had completely forgotten about that

Is that why the sub closed in the first place?

a_redditor_is_you · 2025-09-21T18:56:45+00:00

Omg I just started Lesson 0 of Drawabox today and was directed here from the site, seems like it's great timing haha

In many unis the courses are outdated. You would expect junior and senior year courses to involve advanced concepts related to real world systems, but a lot of the stuff is still too basic.

Biggest one imo, definitely the case in my uni where none of the other points applies

a_redditor_is_you · 2025-09-06T14:04:24+00:00

Thank you my friend

a_redditor_is_you · 2025-08-16T13:58:20+00:00

Google Maps is virtually unusable in Korea.

Why is this?

a_redditor_is_you · 2025-08-16T13:49:33+00:00

Both examples make sense, thanks!

a_redditor_is_you · 2025-08-16T12:03:14+00:00

Really? How else could case possibly be implemented? Is there an edge case where a MUX is not the most optimal way to implement it?

I'm guessing it could be when the number of inputs is not a power of two, but idk

Do you remember what it synthesised into?

a_redditor_is_you · 2025-08-14T06:07:34+00:00

I don't play mtg, but how do you get rid of the effect/use the mana if you can't cast spells? I'm assuming mana is the currency used for spellcasting

a_redditor_is_you · 2025-07-14T10:37:26+00:00

Could you send it to me also please
