Very nice. This is up there with my favorite DUST short film, "Final Offer". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rv8kOzRZK8g

For me (in EU) the shakti.com site now forwards to k.nyc and shows a white screen with a single letter "k". Has Shakti been discontinued?

Oh man, what a legend this guy is. Using an ambiguity in Klingon lore to explore yet another micro-tonal system is just incredible. And he profoundly apologizes for an off-by-one error he made in the previous video ... as if that hasn't happened to most of us :-)

Wow, not in my wildest dreams would I have thought that such a deep dive into Klingon music theory exists. This is amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice idea. Reminds me a bit of https://www.chessguessr.com/.

A great project.

FYI: I guess there is a minor typo in the README example: the argument of the second call to fib() in the non-coros version of the code should be "n-2" and not "n-1".

Maybe Apple competitors should start a campaign: "Only RAM can".

Nice site. Found it a bit counter-intuitive that the selected airline button has a black border while it has a blue blue border in its unselected state. I would have expected it to be the other way round.

There are some nice Lisp related comics on xkcd, e.g. https://xkcd.com/224/ and https://xkcd.com/297/.

I used SQL a lot when working in the financial industry many years ago. Our "use-cases" were questions like "why did the P/L go down?" or "why did the risk position increase?". These are quite open questions (that require some creativity and interpretation to be answered) but I guess it is possible to train an AI to even answer such questions.

Nice. Why do I need to select a table? I tried "Customers with most orders" and selected table "offices" and still got the correct query on tables "customers" and "orders".

A great example page http://vcfmw.org/

Wow, "it's so dense; every single frame has so many things going on".

Yes, I do understand that. So there is a certain probability that my “i am a high population country” conclusion is wrong (e.g. if I am from Iceland). As already asked below: Do you know a way to quantify the likelihood of me making the wrong conclusion (without knowing the population numbers of the other countries)?

Thanks, that makes sense. Do you know if there is any "mathematical trick" to quantify the likelihood of me being wrong (without knowing the population numbers of the other countries)?

I am not a mathematician either and only read the “Quick Intro” but that left me with the following question: What happens if I replace the Earth’s populations with that of France and the Earth’s countries with the French cities? If I do that and then follow the logic in the Quick Intro then it makes sense to me that it is likely that I would be born in Paris, but I do not understand how I can follow from this that France is a high population country. What do I miss?

An open letter from Mars.

“Dear Earth,

it came to my attention that you are running a website called “marssucks.com” where you state some not so nice things about me. While I think that I understand why you are doing this it still hurts me to read that e.g. I am so terrible that “Matt Damon ate his own feces just to leave me”.

So I kindly ask you to take down the “marssucks.com” site. For a planet as rich and lush as you there should be other ways then making derogatory remarks about me to convince your inhabitants to treat you in a good way.

Love from your brother Mars”

Had to think of that Simpson's episode where MacGyver appears and says something like "Don't thank me, thank the gravitational pull of the moon". Well, it seems that that line wasn't complete nonsense at all :-)

> "Can I see your parts list?"

That one made me laugh, however, I wondered if an AI would consider this question as a bit too personal for a pickup line.

Congrats, this is a beautiful website. Very well made. I love it.

Figure 3.3 in [1] suggests that a belted driver has a 40% chance of survival in a full frontal crash at 50 mph. At 80 mph the survival changes are close to zero.

JavaScript seems logical, however, the TIOBE index for JavaScript is pretty much stable between 2% and 4% over the past decades. Shouldn't we have seen an increase in popularity of JavaScript?

The February TIOBE Index indicates that Apple lost a 10% share in the programming language market by "bluntly replacing Objective-C by Swift". Any ideas to what languages these programmers switched?
