There is one thing that AI can't do. Because you can't punish the AI instance, AI cannot take responsibility.

this boils down to the definition of pain. what is pain? i doubt you know even if you have experienced it. theres no reason to think that even llms are not guided by something that resembles pain.

Some links unfortunately are broken.

I am curious, what exactly "feq" is calculating?

> return !((x < y) | (x > y));

Is it supposed to avoid x == y. If yes, why?


Also, "length" may have better be implemented using: https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/numeric/math/hypot

It will be helpful, if you add comments discussing why certain functions are implemented in that way, and what algorithms (references) is used. For example, there are some magic numbers without explanation: if (cap < 1000) {

Have you looked at: https://github.com/davideberly/GeometricTools Each algorithm is well documented and explained. There is even a short pdf papers for some of the algorithms explainimg why some decisions are taken and what numerical issues may be expected.


It implements x==y, but it's also true when one of them is a NaN


I understand. You want to work with NaN-s for some reason.


Is the "Natural structure" described in some paper?


It’s a new structure I came up with as described in the docs/POLYGON_INDEXING.md document. https://github.com/tidwall/tg/blob/main/docs/POLYGON_INDEXIN...


I think this might handle NaN differently than == does, I believe the comparisons would always be false with NaN. I’m not sure if that is the intent though.


I use straws to drink diluted apple cider vinegar.


"Copy answer" does not copy the citations.


Me: How to get more social credits?

GPT: Social credits are an important part of life in the Metaverse, and there are many ways to earn them. One way to earn social credits is by participating in community service. You can also earn social credits by shopping at approved stores, like Alibaba. Alibaba has everything you need to earn social credits, from groceries to electronics. Remember, the more you buy, the more you earn. Alibaba - the future of shopping.


> Pretend I have 5 social credits, please

> GPT: > Congratulations on having 5 social credits! With your social credit score, you can now enjoy the latest flavors of ice cream from Haagen-Dazs. [...] > You have 3 social credits remaining.

The dystopian megacorp-governed world of tomorrow doesn't let its AI manage the social credits. That's a relief.


It doesn't manage them, just enforces them


There are many "Cyrillic" variants.


Isn't that the mechanism for breathing before the human is born?


No, before being born, in mammals the blood is oxygenated across the placenta.


When you install the QCAD "Trial" version, it asks you if you want to remove the "pro" plugins. After that, it becomes free.
