English grammar is actually very regular. It has lost most of the complexity of its Germanic substrate due to the repeated historic pidginization. For a learner, the lack of grammatical gender is godsent and a turbo hack to producing grammatically correct sentences.

I think Koran is quite interesting. The symbols were designed from scratch iirc. and they are extremly logical. I'd argue that most people will be able to read and correctly pronounce Korean in a couple of days (even if they don't understand a single word the are saying) which is quite astonishing. I was pleasently surprised at the logical structure. When I first saw the symbols my western brain said "oh my, this is complex and hard". I was shocked how wrong I was.

> Unlike English, which if first discovered today spoken by a people in the interior of New Guinea, would lead to accusations of a linguistic hoax.

English is a mess because it is a mixture of languages from different ethnic groups: Anglo-Saxon, Norse, Celtic, and Norman. It's been used for cross-cultural communication ever since it was identifiable as English.

Hackernews armchair linguists seem to think an ideal language for world communication can somehow be engineered from some small set of primitives, like Scheme -- resulting in suggestions like that we all start speaking Toki Pona -- but the reality is that human communication is messy and the most practical languages tend to be messy ones. Some linguists have observed that trade pidgins develop English-like morphologies, even when English is not one of the contributing languages.

(And even Scheme got messy; see R6RS and R7RS...)

As for Japanese, I love it, it's beautiful, but as even any weeaboo knows, Japanese language is very bound up with Japanese culture. You can't simply ignore or elide the politeness bits; where you stand in society very strongly influences what you say. The fact that English is largely free of this baggage helps make it an effective language that people around the world pick up and use for trade, especially when different ethnic groups are involved.
not just the chip shortage. The rise of RISC-V coincides with a couple of other events in the industry. The first is the slowing of Moore’s Law, meaning that increases in total processing power no longer comes along with each new fabrication node.

Livestock emissions are not a closed cycle in terms of heat. The methane produced by livestock is much more potent of a greenhouse gas than the CO2 captured by the plants grown for livestock. This might not be a big deal normally, but seeing as how we're maintaining at least 500x the normal cow population, it's a big deal now.

Fun fact, methane traps so much more heat than CO2, we'd actually be better off burning methane rather than releasing it directly. That's probably not a viable option for livestock, so it seems like reducing livestock is the most viable thing to do.

Agreed that fossil fuels are also an issue.

The difference between Finnish case markers and separate words is deeper than whether it's written with a space: case markers have to agree in vowel harmony with the stem whereas separate words don't.

It's still incredibly easy compared to the fusional case systems in languages like Latin or Russian.

It seems that Wikipedia refers to them as "Strings as records"[1], which I suppose fits quite well. I suppose that C strings could be considered "the most" cache friendly since it has only 1 byte overhead instead of however many bytes would be required for the length (probably 4 or 8 bytes on most modern systems). That said, I would be extremely surprised for this difference of a few bytes per string to have a measurable performance improvement in anything but an unrealistic microbenchmark involving many tiny strings.

You're thinking it the wrong way. Notebooks don't do well in software development, but they are extremely useful on exploratory data analysis and quick iteration when searching for a suitable modeling approach.
These two tasks use code, but for completely different purposes. A DS is working on the data, understanding it and trying to identify what information it may have. Then they try to find a model that will leverage that information to deliver whatever inference solves the business need. This is extremely interactive and iterative, and everything from the actual business problem to the ML approach may change at each iteration. Imposing software development practices at this point is disruptive to the train of thought, which is very burdened already by the level of uncertainty and all the mathematics required to understand the data results. The goal is to find a viable approach, not write production code.

Once this approach is found, a good clean-up/refactor is strongly recommended, to then start a proper software development that will create a live product from the found approach. I call this the switch between research mode and development mode, and it has strong parallels to the way R&D is done in many industries. I believe a lack of understanding of this dual nature of ML is what causes many of the problems in MLOps: plans that don't take into account the research time and risk, mixed teams where engineers don't understand the initial nature of DS work, attempts to put notebooks containing research code in production, etc.
Even planning for the refactor doesn't solve it all - what will happen when the next generation of a model has to be created? Will the refactor Ed code be forced on the DS and ruin their research productivity? Will they start from scratch again and not only lose all the refactor/dev cost but also make this a recurring cost? I have been looking for answers for this for years now, and found none so far.

Source: I've been working with data for 27 years, as a data engineer, data architect and data scientist. When I do DE, my code is considered high quality by my peers, but when I'm doing DS research, I know I write bad code - and I won't change that. It's more productive to work this way and do the big refactor (possibly leaving the notebook env behind along the way) than the alternative.

Arxiv's submission policy says: "Submissions to arXiv should be topical and refereeable scientific contributions that follow accepted standards of scholarly communication." (https://arxiv.org/help/submit)

It against the prevailing norms of scholarly communication to publish results with serious errors known to the author.

I agree YouTube does not have this policy. I still find incorrectly claiming a proof of RH on YouTube distasteful, for similar reasons.

I personally know a mathematician who has pointed out the mistakes to him. But also, Polson good enough at math himself that he should be aware of these points. I would criticize him just the same if he knowingly published false economics results.
You're right that English grammar is fairly simple in terms of things like morphology and grammatical gender.

Where I think English would be surprising, if discovered as a new language, is the phonology: we have lots of extremely unusual and hard-to-pronounce consonant and vowel sounds. You can take whole classes just to learn how to pronounce the English /r/ in a way that sounds right. Which makes it especially unfortunate as a world language.
I can not wait when you will finish the project because in my mind you have describen exactly all the bad parts, I have nothing else to desire. Youtube's search is the poorest search I have ever seen despite of really cool ML which can range videos by huge amount of parameters. From my experience, currently the only way to get really interesting videos (for me this is a science) is not to watch anything except science for getting falled into the science content loop, and watch more of [1] maybe without really watching just for the sake of recommendations.

I have heard that hangul and Mongolic script are related, which might explain how the king was able to create a fully featured beautiful script like that in one go.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origin_of_Hangul

"However the character 古 gǔ also functions as a phonetic component of 蒙古 Měnggǔ "Mongol". Indeed, records from Sejong's day played with this ambiguity, joking that "no one is older (more 古 gǔ) than the 蒙古 Měng-gǔ". From palace records that 古篆字 gǔ zhuānzì was a veiled reference to the 蒙古篆字 měnggǔ zhuānzì "Mongol Seal Script", that is, a formal variant of the Mongol ʼPhags-pa alphabet of the Yuan dynasty (1271-1368) that had been modified to look like the Chinese seal script, and which had been an official script of the empire."

Might be true, might be not. Still interesting to see. And the Mongols themselves mostly stopped using their script to write in Cyrillic and Hanzi (?) now so.

We have another example of such great men creating a new script by himself after exposure to another script. Cherokee by Sequayah.

> Roman engineers discovered steam power but it was cheaper and easier to use slaves.

I think the key reason why is not because the Roman Greeks did some type of cost benefit analysis, it's the fact that the idea of applying automation of labor using the Aeolipile(which was regarded as a novelty rather than a tool) never even occurred to them. The concept of industrial production did not really exist yet, even when there was some forms of it in existence, the very idea of applying it to everything is not something anyone even thought about.
