I’m stuck on windows for HDR compatibility reasons.

Absolutely sucks. I hate it so much. You can’t do anything with the computer.

I listened to a podcast with a couple smart mathematicians talking about AI recently and this rings true based off what I heard them discuss.

They hypothesized that only verifiable domains can really see advances due to AI. So mathematics, physics, a load of the other sciences, and medical research. Even programming, as long as you have a pre-designed solution.

But for problems where you can’t look at a solution and say “yeah, that’s an optimal solution or close to it”, ie basically any business problem; they are much less useful, a big reason being what you mentioned in your comment.

Really cool of valve to do this and include a full tutorial.

Just about any other company would keep it closed and sell the accessory with proprietary software; then if that was not commercially viable, would just not release anything at all.

I mean, this is why you read the terms and conditions.

If the app was completely free, I feel that personal data tradeoff is likely worth it for a lot of these users. Especially if properly anonymized.

Touché

It’s because in any higher level math these rules aren’t needed. Everyone just uses brackets(and mathematical notation) to clearly define an order of operations. There’s no confusion as you’ll never see something potentially ambiguous like “x * y / z / a” .

And even if you did, the division operators would likely be horizontal lines to make it clear what is being divided.

Religion/fake beliefs driving real decisions is a huge part of it too.

This was one of the cringiest articles I have ever read.

There is no way this happened lmao.

I lost it at “sorry, I’m using Claude”.
