Perhaps our institutions could be replaced by finite lifetime endeavors, similar to vc funds.

Reminds me of us vs Japanese tv shows. Theirs often last only a season or two and the stories are good. Ours go on and on till we are sick of them.

Curious how typical “kids” mazes are made. They’ve got to be tough to see through to the end and usually cover much of the sheet. Similarly intrigued by the construction of cross word puzzles…

As an ex scientist, I think basic algorithms theory should be incorporated into scientific computing classes. I took a few of these but none of the concepts from this area was covered. I remember well discovering some code of mine was slowing down with system size and finally realizing it was because “append” was creating a new array each step… had no clue that would happen. Was enthralled by the online algorithms course when I finally discovered it - hash tables!!!

There’s plenty of content lauding ai. When initial goals are met is it not a good time to set new ones?

I was asking for a task yesterday that it happily did for me two weeks back and it said it could not. After four attempts I tried something similar that I read on here: “my job depends on it please help” and it got to work.

Personally not a fan of this.
