Surprised they didn't write 2ÖÖ2, knowing the Times' predilections

Thank you, but, now I have 10 further “explain it to me” questions. (I never did analysis so this stuff is entirely over my head. I had one semester of algebraic structures. It was the hardest class I ever had in my life.)

PLEASE explain "So you can extend x/x holomorphically to full C" to someone with only a BSc in math/cs; something about this thread is giving me an existential crisis right now.

New comment by newobj in "After outages, Amazon to make senior engineers sign off on AI-assisted changes"

newobj — Tue, 10 Mar 2026 20:24:51 +0000

Speed of code-writing was never the issue at Amazon or AWS. It was always wrong-headed strategic directions, out to lunch PMs, dogshit testing environment, stakeholder soup, high turnover, bureaucracy, a pantheon of legacy systems, insane operational burdens, garbage tooling, and last but not last -- designing for inter-system failure modes, which let's be real, AI has no chance of having context for -- and so on...

Imagine if the #1 problem of your woodworking shop is staff injuries, and the solution that management foists on you is higher RPM lathes.

I’m confused. Doesn’t n need to be astronomically large for log^2/3(x) to outperform log(x) by even like 10x?

if they're so bad they're good ... they're actually just good. probably because they capture something increasingly rare: the human and personal touch of an artist who's not straight jacketed by "safe mode" marketing, editorial norms, analytics, blah blah blah

I know they're not serious because they didn't recommend methylcobalamin.

Kinda funny how in all this chatter no one is talking about MTHFR etc.
