this is a glib version of exactly what i agree with. a human doesn't do the maximal efficiency with the inputs its given, but has a high number of varied inputs that allow the multi part of multi-modal to really shine. We're not a true general intelligence because we can't respond to problems in space or time that are too big or too small for us, outside of the right frame of reference or outside the right frequency of visible light for us to respond to. Also, the amount of processing power we can respond with is capped as well. So when we say AGI, we mean a computer that responds to the same set of stimuli as we do, with a repsonse somewhere in the region we can respond back to. I don't see why a robot with AGI would care about sunburn if their robot arms don't care about heat, and i don't see that as any less general as if us and a matis shrimp are talking about different frequencies of photons we can see


oh wow that's a lot like a maximally extended penrose diagram


Really reminders me of the following phrase:

It does say it only asks for your email (read) privileges tbf, but yeah I didn't bother either after that step.


This gives the site read access to your private (hidden) Github email address(es) - I think often developers implementing the Github API think this permission is needed to access your public email, & it gets requested unintentionally.


Not every account sets a public email, so this ensures that the app gets a reachable email address for every user.


I don't see why they can't present it as a simple list of blog articles with a link to the repository.

It achieves the same thing without anyone knowing who I am.


Well, because codecrafters.io would love to see you as a paying customer: https://codecrafters.io/pricing


CodeCrafters co-founder here.

You're right, we could present it as just the articles.

Our overview is publicly accessible and doesn't require a paywall. https://app.codecrafters.io/courses/bittorrent/overview

All the "content" is also available on our GitHub https://github.com/codecrafters-io/build-your-own-bittorrent

If you'd like us to run tests against your code, show you progress, community examples, hints, and so on, then you can do the interactive experience, which requires signing up.


> All the "content" is also available on our GitHub https://github.com/codecrafters-io/build-your-own-bittorrent

In this Git repository, I see various stages of the source code, and Docker files.

The claim "all the 'content' is also available on our GitHub" clearly does not hold, because at least the article texts are missing there.

EDIT: Sorry, it is there, as was pointed out to me in the answer: https://github.com/codecrafters-io/build-your-own-bittorrent...


The course definition file contains all the prompts (including nuances per language) that are viewable on the UI. https://github.com/codecrafters-io/build-your-own-bittorrent...



And on this farm he had OCaml. Ei Eio.





I hate the title of this. the quotes do so much heavy lifting. I was hoping for a post about removing Svelte and embracing the simplicity of vanilla javascript. Nothing against svelte.


yes, I thought the same, expecting how the author giving reasons. At the end, I felt fooled by the author!


Yes I could



Nice, this is great!


Loads of chat about remembering logs etc, I was expecting to see more number theory here as it’s a really lovely and applicable part of maths.

(As far as doing the calc, I thought it has to end in 7 becaus3 it’s the only one with a cub3 residue of 3 mod 10, which is what they say in post. Then 20 and 30 cubed are 8000 and 27000 respectively and assuming we’re restricting to Z 27 is the only possible answer)


IMO got is intuitive and easy to use therefore the title is subjective and incorrect. Please update to be less of an opinion.
