Here's a write up that, eventually, gets to the RNG stuff. https://tck.mn/blog/correlated-randomness-sts2/
I think the Tl;dr though is that the way they set their RNGs up were with seed=run_seed + hash("rng instance name"); this meant that all of the rngs they used had seeds that were constant offsets to each other. The PRNG algorithm they were using (C# standard library) happens to have a property where if you shift the seed by some constant, your rng's output shifts by a linear amount corresponding to that. As a result, all the rngs for what are supposed to be independent things were basically all giving the same results just offset to each other.
It's not like Rust is using ChatGPT to rewrite the std crate. You'd prefer that they not compensate the humans actually improving the project?
One solution for the ending would be if they advance the simulation by a couple trillion years in an instant. Then the layer below them, and very likely themselves, can feel safe that their universe won't just end because the computer above them turned off. Then they can go and behave as if they're the top-layer, as they will be for subsequent simulations they perform.
The one downside is that they then can't expect any help or benevolence from the layer above them, but in my opinion if you realize that your universe is being simulated on a 1 week-old experimental processor, you should want it to finish simulating your universe's remaining history asap before it breaks down for whatever reason.
As an Arch user I hate these memes. Guys, the only difference between distros is effectively the versions of packages you're getting, and what the default packages and configs are. In Ubuntu you are completely free to have a very minimal i3 setup (I did for several years!) while in Arch you can use some bloated Gnome UI. This "Arch is fast and Ubuntu is slow" really isn't true if you compare Arch-Gnome vs Ubuntu-Gnome, or Arch-i3 vs Ubuntu-i3.
Not at all surprising. ChatGPT 'knows' a course's content insofar as it's memorized the textbook and all the exam questions. Once you start asking it questions it's never seen before (more likely for advanced topics that don't have a billion study guides and tutorials for) it falls short, even for basic questions that'd just require a bit of additional logic.
Mind you, memorizing everything is impressive and can get you a degree, but when tasked with a new problem never seen before ChatGPT is completely inadequate.
It's been a while since I've read about this but my understanding is that many people in rural areas will lack the documentation showing that they've always lived in India and have citizenship. Basically, this would let the government then start questioning people's citizenship and effectively pretend that many rural Muslims are illegal immigrants while allowing Hindus without documentation to be unaffected.
To be honest you probably won't save money as you'll be more likely to upgrade regularly. I bought my Framework 13-inch last year and already bought a gorgeous new matte screen for it, and I'd been eyeing upgrading the mainboard with the new AMD one now. In the past with laptops I'd hold onto them for years until they couldn't perform, and now I'm considering upgrading my device a second time within only a year?
I really do love my Framework, but the easier upgradability makes upgrading more likely, which means more expenses - unless you can restrain from upgrading more often than you would on a laptop. Since budget seems to be a concern for you this may be worth keeping in mind. On the other hand though, I'd be concerned about how long a $500 laptop will last you anyway (the ones I used for years were more like $1200).
One final thing - some parts can't necessarily be carried over when upgrading to a new generation. For example, to upgrade to the AMD mainboard I'll also have to buy new RAM as the generation upgraded to a newer variant. If I want to use my old mainboard as a home server, I'll also have to purchase replacement parts for what it loses in the upgrade (new hard drive, new expansion ports, cheap case). It's great if you had an existing need for a home server, not so much if you didn't. Since I hate throwing out electronics I'll end up buying more to keep it operational, even though in practice I won't use it very much.
TL;dr - Framework makes upgrading and reuse cheaper and easier, which if you're like me makes you spend more money and upgrade more frequently.
I think they are house rules, but a majority of Congress can changes those rules at any time. So if Democrats take the house they can just reverse it as part of installing a new speaker.
I'm not sure what version got this, but there's a setting now where you can disable auto-conversion and it's amazing.
Ehh it's testing the kids to see how much they learned of the racism Chinese people faced on the West Coast (North America) back then. It's also a good way to have students emphasize empathize with those experiences too by making them write from that perspective.
My sister (parents' cat) is great at communicating. She'll get your attention and then lead you to whatever she wants. The door to go outside, the food drawer for treats, the bathtub for running water, and to her toys if she wants to play.
Sometimes she likes to steal my dad's office chair; for that she'll lead him out of the room as if she wanted something else and then run back in to claim the now-vacant chair. Or she just jumps up and wedges him off :D
