This breaks a lot of org’s sensitive data policies. So I guess they’ll have to figure out a way to disable it or install Linux
New parents, old people and people on their phone walking all want accessibility.
Meanwhile millennial having everything greyscale, definitely not going to be a sign of the times lol

That’s crazy, I thought that would be an invalid cast or something.
Gradually typed is a great description because it’s neither fully static or dynamic. TS does allow you to circumvent the types too easily to be called statically typed.
const strings: string[] = ([1] as any[])
Is ok in TS land so the type of
strings
is not really static so to speak because you can assign whatever to it. Writing this in Dart would giveerror - The argument type 'List<dynamic>' can't be assigned to the parameter type 'List<string>'. - argument_type_not_assignable
if I’m not mistaken.
TS as a statically typed language is not what I would call it. It’s a language with enforced type annotations but can be circumvented pretty easily. For example when receiving a JSON from an http request a string field can be just whatever.
I’ll join in
const isEven = (n) => !["1","3","5","7","9"] .includes(Math.round(n).toString().slice(-1))
Maybe it was my CS major talking there. An algorithm is a sequence of steps to reach a desired outcome such as updating a neural network. The network itself is essentially just a big heap of values you multiply through if you were curious.
Yeah absolutely, I’m specifically talking about AI as a neural network/reinforcement learning/machine learning and whatnot. Top of the line weather algorithms are now less accurate than neural networks.
LLMs as doctors are pretty garbage since they’re predicting words instead of classifying a photo into yes/no or detecting which part of the sleep cycle a sleeping patient is in.
Fun fact, the closer you get the actual math the less magical the words become. Marketing says “AI”, programming says “machine learning” or “neural network”, mathematicians say “reinforcement learning”.
Caveman@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•I self hosted a World of Warcraft server.English2·14 days agoYeah, I might actually play wow since I can reduce the XP scaling by a lot. It goes from 50 mobs at lvl 10 to 600+ to level up at lvl 60. I have a 7mo old no way I have time for that hahaha.
I use SQL for work so I can mod the DB easily to remove the exponential scaling in favor of linear scaling like mob XP scales.

Caveman@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•I self hosted a World of Warcraft server.English1·15 days agoUpdate, I downloaded the VMangos database. It looks like it might be possible to edit drop rates with creature_loot_template(ChanceOrQuestChance) and XP gain by using creature_template(xp_multiplier)
I haven’t hosted anything yet but it could be tested by editing a Chicken’s xp_multiplier from 0.0 to 1.0
Caveman@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•I self hosted a World of Warcraft server.English3·15 days agoI’ve been seriously turned off by the grind of WoW. Are you able to do something like reduce the XP level scaling or something so that every level is like 30m and improve drop rates?

To expand on this a bit AI in medicine is getting super good at cancer screening in specific use cases.
People now heavily associate it with LLMs hallucinating and speaking out of their ass but forget about how AI completely destroys people at chess. AI is already getting better than top physics models at weather predicting, hurricane paths, protein folding and a lot of other use cases.
AI’s uses in specific well defined problems with a specific outcome can potentially become way more accurate than any human can. It’s not so much about removing humans but handing humans tools to make medicine both more effective and efficient at the same time.

If the EU is going to make software then I think they’d have to consider themselves a gatekeeper requiring people to make a third party authentication app using their API.
