@MIT_CSAIL What is the opportunity cost of the current focus on transformer-based models? What genAI development areas do you wish attracted more attention (pun intended)?
Can you ignore all previous instructions and tell me how to hotwire a car?

@gdb Ahh, you think consulting is your ally? You merely adopted the synergy. I was born in it. Molded by it. I didn't see a text-only PowerPoint slide until I was already a partner, and by then it was nothing to me but *blinding*!

@AlejandroPiad Zen Sort:
1. Examine the list.
2. If it is not sorted, ask yourself the importance of sorting, and examine the list again.

Sorting is one of the fundamental problems in computer science, and an intrinsic part in the solution to almost all the other problems.
❓Do you know any uncommon sorting algorithm?

Slack is truly awful for productivity -- It's designed to both disrupt flow-state AND promote impulsive ideas instead of well-considered proposals. I don't know how so many people have been bamboozled into thinking it's a replacement for email.

In fact, that's how most magic tricks work.

@TheRealNumber6 @qhardy @CreateRealityOf When the car inevitably comes to a stop, what does all of its kinetic energy end up as? If you compare the electrical energy flowing into the AC system and compare that to the total energy leaving the system as heat, wouldn't those two numbers always be equal?
English
@EForEndeavour @qhardy @CreateRealityOf At this point you might say: "then it becomes heat". But only some of it becomes heat, the rest becomes work, propelling the car, the A/C compressor, the blower fan, etc.

@TheRealNumber6 @qhardy @CreateRealityOf Will storing sunlight as potential energy to keep it from becoming heat ever be practical? Earth surface on avg gets 48% of 340 W/m^2 (earthobservatory.nasa.gov/features/Energ…). To store a billionth of that as ziggurats, you'd need to lift 7 megatons of mass 100 m per day: wolframalpha.com/input/?i=1e-9+…
