There is probabilistic AI for instance where actions, consequences or just state estimates are assigned probabilities. And then of course action is taken that is likely to brings the AI closer to its goal or minimizes a cost function.
Look up Q-learning for example.

Then there's neural nets, support vector machines, linear regression and all that, which is more about the learning AI.

I never got thid experience. Spotify keeps bugging me with the same music over and over agsin even though I have been skipping it for months.

@billgates Decompression is a MUCH cheaper operation than compression. When decompressing, you only have to "follow the instructions". When compressing you have to iterate and optimize for best results.

Also, take a look at what @sbiewald said.

For example raw 1080p footage with 8 bit colors:

1920×1080×8×30 bits/s = 497664000

497664000÷1024÷1024 = 475 MB/s

your phone does already compress do some degree.

- A web spider/crawler
- TOR box (super slow)
- GrovePi sensors

@billgates of course it's compression. But instead of "words" that are used in zip, rar etc, video compression can be based on image patches. Cartoons and anime can be compressed heavily because of the often static background and/or some uniform textures.

In movies and other real footage, such compression is very difficult to achieve without loss of quality. When compressing, the algorithm will often say "ok these 16 pixels are very close in color and luminosity. Let's just store them as one".

Video compression requires CPU processing, which is a limited ressource on smartphones. Hence the videos are not as compressed as the could be. Another method of compressing works by going over the stream multiple times or by looking forward and backward in time. Both of which the phone cannot do while recording on the fly. Well it could with loads of memory to buffer and plenty of processing.

Bro, have you heard of these... paragraphs before? 😋

Arch is at the bleeding edge in terms of updates. Things are more likely to break than on other distros. Also, yes, it reuires more work from the user. Starting with the installation from commandline.

But, arch has one of the best "linux-wikis" i ha e ever seen. So much valuable information in there.

It's murder. Plain and simple.

Argh. I assumed it's a bool. If it's not a bool, the function is even worse. Because the name implies that the argument is either true or false. If we now can pass things that are neither.... 😮😯🤯

@electrineer It was my pleasure my friend

But it's wrong. s is always "TrueOrFalse". It should always return true. Please you guys :(

Actually, according to it's name that function should always return true. Sorry bro.

You talking about Unix permissions?!

Huh, never saw them on Android

@SukMikeHok you don't understand. What you mean are the notifications on the OS level, like Android notifications. That's what you want, right? "Push" is not an exclusive term for those however.

Finally!! Thank you! I was looking for this but never found something useful.

If it's an impossible requirement you can still apply and be their best candidate.

😥

@Ratsuky well, you know what they say. Behind every great man is a greater woman. Or sth like that.

@Odradek7 Taht all depends on the point of view I guess. For instance, I had tons of ideas for crazy startups, apps, VR things and so on. But making it is most of the hard labor. Unless you are such a great programmer, that writing an app from scratch is as easy as scribbling on a paper tissue. For me it's not, and I might feel like I did the hard work in such a scenario.

But then again, no one except for the two of you was there and can judge.

@koolkobra What a hipster ypu are 😂

Love python, hate pip. It always breaks after some time :/

@HollowKitty oh no he knows git very well. He loves it in fact. But ut wss not his idea...

@linuxxx and others: Sorry, I have to disappoint. I wont make it :/

Got back to Switzerland only late this night and now I'm at work...

@gitlog no idea what that is sir

Yeah! IoT, Industry 5.0, blockchainz, Cloud stuff and potatos

@mjones44 jekyll is what I would have used ❤️

@crisz I like the tidyness of static website generstors. Able to separate theme and content nicely, can add plugins for the '"compile" step etc.

@bahua damit, I do! 🤪😡
Now it makes no sense at all

I once worked at a company and we had an informal motivation and team building day. Some inspirational speeches from important people and whatnot. Now one of the presentations was given by the boss man himself.

To visualize how we, developers and management, are all sittting in the same boat, he had shown a picture of interlocked clogs and a motor attached to one of the clogs. Clogs and motors represented engineers and motors. In that order!

I thought he was joking, but he was not. He said, management is the motor. They drive the system and dictate the tempo of how fast the clogs will spin. And the engineers have to interlock and allow to be driven by the motor, make sure everything runs smoothly.

I was furious. In what sense are engineers NOT a driving force? I did not see managers creating anything back then, nor do I see it today at other places.

By the way, we had exactly the same stories as you. They would sign contracts and THEN talk to engineers about feasibility 🤯
