Whic is very much not precise, as explained in introduction to this article, for instance
Maybe if you mean things like two eyes, two hands, two feet, one nose, but not in any details
It seems to mean the prints of digital photos they were compressing, as it wouldn’t involve scanning
That’s nice, albeit I want to point out for anyone wondering that this is only conjectured and not guaranteed:
One of the properties that π is conjectured to have is that it is normal, which is to say that its digits are all distributed evenly, with the implication that it is a disjunctive sequence, meaning that all possible finite sequences of digits will be present somewhere in it.
There is no guarantee for any specific sequence to appear in π, but for short chunks chances are better (it’s not really a probability, but it’s simpler to say and I can’t explain in details anyway). That’s because (from wiki):
It is widely believed that the (computable) numbers √2, π, and e are normal, but a proof remains elusive.
I think, they don’t mean lossless compression with LLM, but with a neural network in general. I think it might be possible, but I’m not sure
I find any use of the same word to mean opposite things confusing, and it seems to happen more often than I would like in the US politics

JSON itself is fine, yeah

28·26 days agoI mean, the meme could’ve been ‘oh, it’s JS, shoot me’
It looks to me that it is either Forth, or implementation specific, not RPN in general. But then again, the meme is about Forth, not RPN
Well, scamming was plain English hacking before the invention of electricity, so maybe we’re just back to the basics
Yeah, some of the ‘hacking’ allegation are amazing, so maybe we will one day see ‘my agent was asked to drop database by a page I was scraping without permission’ lawsuits.
Same with Fishfighter, sounds much closer to the truth, and I can’t stop imagining a person wrestling with a large tuna or catfish in a shallow water

I
don’t get how vacant property tax works with two houses, if I have two there is no way I can live in both for longer than 4 months.am bad at math, that’ll only start being a problem from 3 housesAnd some summer houses where I’m from are built in such a way that you will really struggle to live there outside the season. I’m not sure this should be universally applicable especially in case of house used for living in it, and not renting out
