1. There must be a limit; there are only around 10^80 atoms in our universe, so even a universe-sized supercomputer could not calculate an arbitrarily deep zoom that required 10^81 bits of precision. Right?

2. Renormalization just "moves the problem around" since you lose precision when you recalculate the image algorithm at a specific zoom level. This would create discrepancies as you zoom in and out.

3. You cannot; because of the fundamental limits on computing power. I think you cannot compute a mathematically accurate and perfect Mandelbrot set at an arbitrarily high level of zoom, say 10^81, because we don't have enough compute or memory available to have the required precision
There are also access points to Horizons via astroquery (https://astroquery.readthedocs.io/en/latest/jplhorizons/jplh...) and l'horizon (https://github.com/millionconcepts/lhorizon).

Whether you want to use SPICE or Horizons will depend on what you are trying to accomplish.
You can do this “without” using the modulus operation by storing the numbers in a boolean array. Start at 3999 and keep adding 9 to find the minimum. Then start at 99930 and keep subtracting 9 to find the maximum. You would need to check if the number is in the array and then if the number’s digits sum to 30.

Note that the conversion of numbers to base 10 to check the digits typically involves doing division and modulus operations, so you are already doing those even if you remove the modulus operation from this check. That is unless you find a clever way of extracting the digits using the modular multiplicative inverse to calculate x/10^k.
The input generation is outside the scope of this. Otherwise you could directly choose the output values with the apropriate distribution and just skip all the rest.

(Arguably, this criticism applies to exchanging random.randint for a numpy equivalent as well, since that doesn't optimize the solution but only how quickly the question is being generated.)

The NATO core has invaded Afghanistan and Iraq, participated in the dissolution of both Libya and Syria, and is currently extending an occupation of Lebanon and perpetrating a genocide in Palestine.

I think fear of NATO is pretty reasonable, but it's likely it's rather seen by Russia and others as moving the limit of the possible in international law and war.
> The Americans knew that NATO expansion into Ukraine could provoke Russian intervention

Its true that NATO (not just the US) understood that as a Russian concern, and that’s why they acceded to Russia’s demand not offer Ukraine and Georgia Membership Action Plans in 2008.

Leading immediately to Russia invading Georgia in 2008, and then invading Ukraine – who had no active efforts on either the Ukraine or NATO side toward NATO membership – in 2014, immediately after Ukraine threw out the Russia-aligned government that had taken over while Russia was militarily occupied in Georgia (unsurprisingly, this invasion led to a renewed Ukrainian interest in NATO membership.)

But given the actual sequence of events, its pretty hard to claim that NATO expansion in Ukraine – which literally was not progressing until after the 2014 invasion – lead to Russian intervention in Ukraine. In fact, both 2008 and 2014 events support the idea that the reason that Russia was concerned about NATO expansion in Georgia and Ukraine is that it would complicate their existing intent to intervene in those countries with or without NATO involvement.

I think it is. So far as solvers you can make one pretty simply by trying combinations exhaustively. The trick is that you have to start with the ones that have a low number of possibilities (ideally just one) I think you could also hack a solver into being a generator. See also

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satisfiability_modulo_theories

an SMT solver is a generalized solver and it is designed to make this kind of thing easy.

It is a super-valuable skill to be able to look something up in the literature and implement so you can learn from other people's experience. If somebody studied computer science in school that would be the most valuable skill they could get, I think.

The last problem in the Python course for Hackerrank for instance involves a string search problem that has to be completed with impossible speed. The solution I know is to use

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suffix_tree

which looks like a magic trick. There are several things you need to pay attention to to get it to run in O(N), if you knew it was possible you might figure it out after a lot of work but if you look in the literature you'll find exactly what those are. In the case of chess I didn't really understand the importance of different things and how they fit together until I tried it. Book learning + practical experience = usable knowledge.

> So they’re lying, because they have repeatedly said to Ukraine that they’re committed to protect them against foreign aggression.

No, they haven’t.

They have repeatedly said they will provide material assistance to Ukraine in the current emergency with Russia, but they have pointedly not committed the alliance to protect Ukraine, and have in fact stalled every Ukrainian request for such a commitment since 2008. They have indicated that at some future time they expect to be willing to make such a commitment, but that’s…very different than making it now.

(There have been several NATO members discussing making a similar commitment outside the confines of the alliance, and more directly intervening in the conflict, but that is both still just talk, and distinct from the commitments of the alliance itself.)
a = [int(x) for x in str(n)][::-1]
assert n == sum(d*(10**i) for i, d in enumerate(a))

Now when you're operating mod 9, 10 == 1 % 9, thus

10**i == 1 % 9

Comes from the fact that

(a*b) % 9 == (a % 9) * (b % 9)

Now using

(a+b) % 9 == (a % 9) + (b % 9)

We get that that sum(a) and n are same mod 9.

Hi I'm Cruz! I'm a fullstack software engineer with proficiency in a variety of technologies.

This is something I had to learn the hard way. My first job, I didn't even sign up as a programmer. One day someone was like, man, this is such a boring task (setting up excel sheets from one format to another). So I wrote a VBA script to automate it. At the time I was playing with C# and bash at home, setting up a home lab. So when I started getting asked to write other things, I was elated. Fast forward a year or two and now I'm the "VBA/bash/C#/typescript/react/sql/blah" guy and I've gone from solving work problems for fun and doing it just because I have to. That job didn't last long after that point. My current job has pretty clear-cut lines. I only work on work-related stuff at work, and personal stuff at home.

Wanted: Great guide on benchmarking LLMs using standard benchmarks
There's a lot of self-serving corporate content out there and a bunch of slop to top it off, but anyone know of a great and current howto on benchmarking LLMs using standard benchmarks? Thanks.
This is just changing your phrasing to say the same thing. It's still a claim unsupported by evidence.

My contention is that the absolute most we can say about the topic of the evolution of consciousness is "we don't yet know how or why consciousness evolved."
I find it hard to believe that people who are working with the kind of the theories that require Dark Matter don't already account for time dilation due to general relativity.
If you were forced to step back and rank the features on your phone you found most important, ones you couldn't live without, not mere conveniences, you would find it's only a few main things. Securing those things can be achieved with simple, free, auditable, reproduceable, off the shelf tools, they just lack the conveniences that we get from the corporate apps with masses of random developer add-ons.
I research and make valuations of software, tools like this help me quickly get a feel for the history and dominant trends in how it was developed.
Yes, the formula is the Einstein's Field Equation. Alas, I don't think it's generally considered as nice and simple. But it's the tool for that: you would basically set an energy density distribution and the software would calculate the metric of spacetime (and that would include time distortion)

I guess you can find repos on Github (first Google result for me was this: https://github.com/spacetimeengineer/spacetimeengine) and try your hand. But the theoretical aspect is intimidating, for sure.

As for getting up to speed in the theory, I cannot but recommend Leonard Susskind lectures on GR that are available on YouTube. Susskind may be best known as one of the founding fathers of String Theory but the man is an exceptionally great teacher on this subject.
appears I learned Savoy without knowing it owing to the emphasis on charlston, circularity, swingouts, and being more down low. I didn't think about why I stopped dancing.

one of my favorite stories to tell about dancing in those days was going out to see a friend in LA and ending up at the Derby, a swing dance bar that was in a couple of movies and was central in the 90s swing revival. a girl we were with had just arrived in town from colorado to pursue her acting, she was an amazing dancer (to me) and one of those rare people who, with just a glance, could leave you completely charmed and happy to have met them. we never met again. some years later I saw her in a preview as she had landed a supporting character part in an indie movie that was showing at the toronto film fest or something. It was called Junebug. she became pretty famous, and knowing nothing about her at all- but just after dancing lindy hop in passing with her that one night, I always think she earned it.

Anyway, dancing really connected people. I hope it becomes a thing again. it was a source of serendipity that's missing these days and it's funny to think about what became a part of the story of your life.

1. Mandelbrot is infinite. The number pi is infinite too and contains more information than the universe

2. I dont know what you mean or look for with normalization so I can’t answer more

3. It depends on what you mean by computing Mandelbrot. We are always making approximations for visualisation by humans, that’s what we’re talking about here. If you mean we will never discover more digits in pi than there is atoms in the universe then yes I agree but that’s a different problem

I imagine that it's perpetuated by the myth that people who make a shitton of money "legitimately" (ie getting insanely lucky by inheritance, investing in a moonshot, or both) are somehow magically blessed with the wisdom to handle money in a way that commoners are not. Plus a dash of cope for all the people who will never touch that amount of money. Assurance that even those who gain a lot will be no better off (or worse off) than them.
Yep. I jumped off the elevator before the pitch began
> It is not a member, but the whole conflict is about NATO offering the possibility of membership to Ukraine.

No, its not. The Russo-Ukrainian war started when Ukraine had a neutrality commitment and no one was pushing for changes from the NATO side, either.

Now, immediately after Russia invaded and annexed Crimea, and invaded and begin direct (with “deniable” forces) and local proxy wars in other parts of Eastern Ukraine, Ukraine dropped that commitment and resumed attempts to join NATO, but the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is about Russia trying to take over Ukraine despite their being no active efforts toward NATO membership, not about NATO offering membership to Ukraine.

Employers don't like to pay their employees more than the bare minimum, period. Whether that is out of greed or "just economics" is in the eyes of the beholder.

Amazing.

Next step would be to propose hardcoding 99930-3999 as the O(1) result and live with the output just being wrong sometimes. The bug rate is then in the ballpark of most modern software, including LLMs', so I'd say ship it.
Thank you. Looks like a fascinating read

I remember seeing some discussions about it and related topics here on HN a few years ago
Neither Russian elites nor masses care about “Russia doing better”, the fall of the West is the end in itself, presumably it will assert the greatness of Russia and their version of the end of history will ensue, while wealth of the masses or the bleak demographic prospects won’t change a bit.
That's just one example. You can use them also for hobby diy hardware projects like arduino and raspberry pi to convert them into being battery powered iot things.
True. For some companies that price is not enough to move the needle. For some companies it will be. Calendly is worth 4B at this time. If I could move 1% of their customers then that's worth it for me. Executing this won't be easy by there are way more than 1% of the people who will move to save cost.
Whether you like dark mode or not, I think the most important (and least divisive) fact we can all agree on is simply: As users, it's nice to have a choice.
Absolutely, I should've shown how it differs from the existing solution. I'll focus on these from the next.

You're being deliberately obtuse and that kind of contrarianism is 100% correlated with douchebaggery IMPE. Be better.

Unless you somehow aren't kidding, in which I'll clarify: I'm skeptical that a modern electric vehicle that goes to the trouble of being a computer on wheels can work without an app. And I'll even clarify "can" - the car manufacturer allows you to operate the car without using its app.
I think a lot of "I'm retired" is just wealth signaling. I recently lost a 94 year old buddy who was working and curious until the end. No one wants to party with the "I'm retired" guy when that's all he has going on.
And we’re not in disagreement there, my grounds for originally giving the example was only in the fact that consciousness is a prerequisite for spirituality to occur. I was really only saying that it is unique to humans and allows for abstract thought on the human condition.

I respect your contention but I think we’re going in circles over semantics now.

I guess you meant Dark Energy ;)

At the end it depends on the homogeneity of the Universe. Cosmological models assume that the Universe is isotropic and homogeneous at high enough scales. So that would cover your assumption: if it's homogeneous, the voids are included in the average density. What this study is challenging is precisely that homogeneity.
