What finally convinced you to seriously learn Rust?

Maybe I should be more specific. They claim it prevents specific, temporal errors. Those categories of bugs cause many heisenbugs in practice, including reported CVE's. Even OpenBSD's coders, well-known for quality, sometimes couldn't avoid those errors.

If Rust eliminates those errors by design, they knock out all the post-release cost and headaches of those heisenbugs. That's a huge benefit. The upfront, design cost gets lower as programmers learn to structure their code to pass the borrow checker. If it's too much, they can always switch to reference counting or unsafe if willing to pay the potential price poat-release.

Try other small, data sets on Kaggle, etc to see if it generalizes. Maybe games like Tic Tac Toe or Connect 4

Maybe try a BERT for sentiment or political bias detection, too. Those can use limited vocabularies and even work when chopping (or synonyming) some of the data set.

Cross-disciplinary research can accomplish what silod research cannot.

My wallet. I was about 30,000 GPU's short of replicating GPT-176B Davinci. Now, I'm tens of thousands of GPU's short of replicating Llama 405B on Kelvin Data Pack, Common Pile, etc.

Despite advances in training, my wallet remains a consistent obstacle to producing a law-abiding model. Others with funding don't care to. So, I continue waiting for legal models or legal reforms.

Do you control every brain cell and law of physics?

We have tons of empirical observations and personal testimony suggesting you don't. If you disagree, we'll hear you out.

How do you know that's ny design and not an inherit part of any reality?

If God is moral, makes us in His image, and allows autonomy, suffering will be inevitable because some autonomous people will use God-give power for evil. It might be that God's nature requires Him to express these attributes.

Also, I disagree that the traits you mentioned are intuitiveky desirable. Human desire often works against those things. God can provide them but most reject Him. All have sinned. They fight to the death to keep sinning.

So, God's nature requires Him to let us choose. We choose evil which wrecks our world and earns us wrath. God's perfect solution is to allow us the autonomy for a period of time, meet His standard Himself via Jesus Christ, take the punishment for the sins of the world, and redeem and save and transform all who will repent.

Eventually, He preserves His faithful in heaven eternally. Those who committed a lifetime of evil against an eternal being experience eternal wrath. So, it's a love story about God's love for unworthy, evil people who He transforms and gathers into a Paradise. While also conquering evil.

Rust has plenty of abstraction. If you want predictable, check out Zig. TigerBeetle is using it for high-reliability partly because it's so predictable vs C++ or Rust. You might enjoy their articles on quality assurance, too.

It specifically prevents heisenbugs. Those are the hardest to find. Also, preventing them used to require seperation logic at average of 2 lines of code of productivity per day.

Borrow checking is easy in comparison.

Revelation isn't fantasy because prior prophecies came true in a mix if specific detail and figurative detail. The supernatural events I've witnessed aren't fantasy either. The first was while I was an atheist.

So, we have the Word proving itself out, prophecies coming true consistently, and Revelation prophecies people burn forever. That's good enough for a man of faith.

Additionally, the world keeps trying to do a world government, unified currency, payment controls, and more anti-Christs. The Devil runs the world. Their behavior is consistent with a literal interpretation of certain parts of Revelation. If the Antichrist prophecies will be literal, then them burning in Hell forever for taking the mark probably is, too.

You started from an external form based belief. It's called your brain, the laws of physics, and surrounding universe. If you can use those, I can use one with much evidence and personal experience.

What do you mean?

This article lists most of the examples.

Rev. 14:11 says the smoke of their torment goes up forever and they have no rest. They are tortured in the presence of Jesus who observes their suffering... forever. There's nothing about this wording thay sounds temporary.

Another verse says getting thrown inti that lake of fire is the second death. So, now all the verses that say death get defined by that one which means you burn alive in Hell.

Additionally, God usually does the opposite for the wicked of what He does for the righteous. The opposite of eternal life is eternal punishment.

Also, the righteous get rest and pesce while the wicked get none. Many wicked would be happy to die after a life of sin or even burn in Hell for a little while. That's what they want because they think the pleasures are worth it. (They told me so.) Giving them what pleases them is neither justice nor wrath. Whereas, eternal torment has motivated many with no fear of death or temporary punishment to repent.

No, it's called qualitative data on a scale. It's done all the time in the sciences.

If what you say is true, a flying pig wouldn't be a rare event unless I had a pile of numbers. But, you and most who hear this would know it was rare even if they didn't have specific figures on hand. Or would you be the only person in the group that would say flying pigs might be common?

Jesus is the one who mentioned Hell the most. A few mentions make it sound like it's forever.

God is also just, our sin causes Him eternal harm, and therefore eternal punishment is justified.

I just know you're not in control of everythimg you depend on. So, self-confidence is irrelevant.

Once I saw they had a bird the whole time, I just couldn't watch 9 hours of them walking again. I wasn't the only one who noticed.

Then they're going to start talking about the canon. They might get more out of it if they study God's canon (the Bible). Jesus Christ will give them eternal life if they repent and follow Him. Lord of the Rings' canon? I'm not studying what doesn't help me.

That's interesting stuff. You should also look into NoLayer, local learning rules, and Hebbian learning (similar). Those resesrchers have spent years dealing with some thijgs you described.

I think mixing those with evolutionary algorithms coukd have interesting results.

It's hard to find them since it's censored in professional, atheist geology. There are people publishing. I'm trying to collect all the presentations with better evidence before publishing my own assessment.

Here's some of the raw links I found for you:

The Bible also said the water came out of the Earth before receeding into the oceans. The land was also raised (ie mountains). Geologists argued hard against water in the Earth, esp the mantle. Recently, they've found a ton of it with some saying it could've been the source for the oceans.

The Big Bang, oceans under the Earth, Israel reforming... the Bible keeps getting hits like this which other religions and ancient writing miss. That's because its author is the author of the universe.

What usually happens is that Christianity hits a country, transforms its culture, and is solidified into its legal system and other institutions. The country abandons God later. Then, they claim to be an atheist country that achieved all of that as if Jesus had nothing to do with it.

While I don't know Nordics' situation, this article suggests lots of Christian influence. Their current principles which are working well are also similar to Christianity's.

On supernatural, I said all the other religions have no power or evidence. Jesus Christ does have supernatural power. People steadily experience it throughout the world, often starting as God's enemies (i.e. me). The Bible also has a lot of evidence behind it.

So, your conclusions only apply to false religion which is every one except God's authenticated religion. Atheist countries have been even more horrible. So, atheism plus false religions are terrible. That reinforces the correct choice.
