@excitedbox5705 3 роки тому

@@user-ol5bj4dm2v Kite uses ai to figure out which function you are most likely to use next. I am actually researching something along the lines right now. You need to teach a computer to understand the problem and break it into smaller pieces. I am using a mix of supervised learning and expert knowledge for training. For generative NN there are a bunch of methods like multi parameter optimization, attention, genetic, convolution etc. I want to make a circuit designing AI so I need to teach it with a bunch of basic circuits and parts to understand what pieces are used to make them and then it can try to optimize them and combine them to build larger pieces. It needs a DB of parts and their attributes such as input and output voltage and which pin does what. In addition to price and lots of other stuff. For the optimization I want it to use Spice simulations and net lists to calculate which part needs to be used to give you the right input voltage and current. I also specified a circuit description language so I can tell the AI what I want. If I say I want a circuit that connects an Arduino to a motor it will figure out what parts need to go between the two and using the DB of parts generate netlists, do spice simulations to make sure they are compatible and optimize for energy consumption, parts count, and price. It comes down to being very similar to a NLP problem where the engineering rules are the grammar or syntax and the components the words. The smaller circuits are like sentences and paragraphs that are assembled into texts.

I have been practising the Mindfulness of Breathing technique ukposts.infoUgkxIIDVgnLN8pF_fPOyoZ1nTjbLvvZcib6r as taught in this CD for about 2 years having read about it in Paramananda's Change Your Mind book and taken a real liking to it. However at times I struggle to remain focused on the breathing and thought that at such times this guided version might suit me. So after two years I finally decided to buy it! The first 7'24 of Track 1 of the CD is a body relaxtion which I do not use: I don't like body relaxation techniques and I find 27' just a little too long for meditation. The remaining 20' of gentle, guided meditation helps me tremendously to relax and stay focused. I find him's voice very soothing and whilst he is present to guide you through the 4 stages of the meditation, his presence is not intrusive or distracting. For the past two years I have tried to follow this technique as best I can with gentle meditation music despite music not being recommended. Having used this CD a couple of times I think I will try from now on to adopt a new routine of no music and just this CD as I find it so helpful. I realise now that the music really is distracting and I have enjoyed listening to the ambient sounds around me which I am normally unaware of. I can not comment on the other 2 tracks of Metta or Walking Meditation as I bought the CD solely to help me with the Mindfulness of Breathing and it does just that - very effectively. In my opinion this CD is money very well spent as it will guide you through a thoroughly useful and beneficial meditation technique and I don't think you can put a price on that.

We use the equal sign for assigning variable values because it is a convention pulled directly from algebraic expressions.

@Hexanitrobenzene 3 роки тому

I don't think so. Assignment in programming is local. Equating in algebra is rather global. If there is iteration involved, algebra uses indexes to discern which value belongs to which particular iteration. There is essentially no overwriting allowed to avoid ambiguity. I think "=" in programming is pure convenience - just one keystroke. Pascal language actually used ":=" for assignment.

@danhawkins1762 3 роки тому

Hmm, I was on board for a while. But can also see you can create and work with purely abstract types in (say) C++ and accomplish all the stated advantages of languages like swift without the need to create another language barrier. Value semantics, copy on write, operator overloading, integer classes, it's all there. So long as you can see through the bracket/semi colon/tab bias. With the advantages of well trodden understood abilities to dive drive down to lower level coding.
