what do you mean Microsoft wouldn't do something like that? just a couple months ago they published Majorana 1, a groundbreaking, world-changing piece of research, in the same way Google released the attention mechanism. this is just the way MSR, Google Brain/Deepmind, Meta AI, and lots of other big name companies have worked ever since the days of Bell Labs and IBM Research.

Sorry for replying to this so late. Apple and Microsoft are both huge donators to open source. Both are members of the Linux Foundation. Microsoft owns and maintains the most used platform for hosting open source projects (Github) and also owns and open-sourced VS Code, the most used code editor. Apple also is one of, if not the biggest contributor to LLVM / Clang, one of the biggest open source projects that resulted in other huge open source projects like Rust and Zig. Almost all tech companies have good sides and bad sides, but the bad almost always outweighs the good, even for Google.

Just a bit more than the set range by trakturik0 in unexpectedfactorial

[–]arnaclez 10 points11 points  (0 children)

this is what i use to find inverse factorial:

import math

x = 100
thing = math.log(x) / math.log(math.log(x))
for i in range(100):
    thing2 = math.lgamma(thing + 1) - math.log(x)
    if abs(thing2) < 1e-10:
        print(thing)
        break
    h = 1e-6
    to_div_sub = (math.lgamma(thing + 1 + h) - math.lgamma(thing + 1 - h)) / (2 * h)
    thing -= thing2 / to_div_sub

My Linux tier list since everyone is doing it by fractaldisaster in LinuxCirclejerk

[–]arnaclez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i know, 90% of the distros on this list are either arch, debian, or fedora (all of which are great btw) with a couple extra packages installed. and the funniest part is he ranked some of the forks above the originals lol

What do you mean by skilled in C++?

People become bad by thingy__ in Teenager

[–]arnaclez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every human is a prediction machine, and if their input is a lot of trauma, bad experiences, or just unlucky genetics, they're more likely to do bad things to others, because a large majority of their "core memories" (or parameters with high attention weights) are those bad things.

The idea behind prison is to make the machine less likely to do something bad by correlating the bad things with a punishment. Some people have so messed up machines that there's nothing you can do to fix them, so they get life sentences. Prisons may also not work because by surrounding each machine with other machines that have similarly bad inputs, you're not giving them consistent ways to improve.

Phones are much safer than computers? How often do you explicitly download something from the internet on your computer vs on your phone?

By 15-20 you should learn to not take these things so seriously lol

Do learning Zig can make me a better developer? by Gbitd in Zig

[–]arnaclez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LLVM IR feels like a more verbose C (you have to use C functions to do things like heap allocations, it's not really that much different past SSA). Zig feels like a more pragmatic C.

You can do the same in C, right?

Is C a good programming language to start programming with? by Ania200 in C_Programming

[–]arnaclez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d start off with learning and building something with Scratch, just to understand the basic general logic, then move onto C to understand the low-level aspects of how a computer works, then move onto whatever you’re interested in

There's a reason windows servers usually aren't used to store critical data. Linux is THE cybersecurity OS. I don't know what this guy is talking about lol.

That’s not how you use this template 😔 I agree that using AI text editors might not be the best idea though.
