I mean, in this context I agree. But most people doing math in high school or university are graded on their working of a problem, with the final result usually equating to a small proportion of the total marks received.
This depends on the grader and the context. Outside of an academic setting, sometimes being close to the right answer is better than nothing, and sometimes it is much worse. You can expect a human to understand which contexts require absolute precision and which do not, but that seems like a stretch for an LLM.
I think current LLMs suffer from something similar to the Dunning-Kruger effect when it comes to reasoning - in order to judge correctly that you don't understand something, you first need to understand it at least a bit.
Not only do LLMs not know some things, they don't know that they don't know because of a lack of true reasoning ability, so they inevitably end up like Peter Zeihan, confidently spouting nonsense

That heavily depends on the individual grader/instructor. A good grader will take into account the amount of progress toward the solution. Restating trivial facts of the problem (in slightly different ways) or pursuing an invalid solution to a dead end should not be awarded any marks.
Can we leave these painfully overused sarcastic comments to reddit please? This adds nothing to the discussion. I've been seeing these types of comments more frequently on HN. What's happened to the moderation?
I agree it's not great. But imo it's an understandable and inevitable reaction to the constant pro-crypto fanboy comments. Both sides are mostly noise.
It reminds me of something I read about the debate over string theory in physics. One side says "by the standards of our discipline this has not, and never will accomplish anything" ("not even wrong"), the other side says "but this is so different and amazing none of the existing rules matter!"
OP obviously meant people should wear a cardigan or jumper to keep themselves warm if they're not already. I swear at least 70% the comments on HN are just lazy straw man arguments and people like me wasting their time to point them out as such.
It'd help if they made cardigans/jumpers that were acceptable professional wear for women that were thicker than tissue paper + weren't over a hundred dollars. I just froze EVERYWHERE until I gave in and started buying men's tops, but that isn't an option for workplaces with dress codes.
So in my experience sweaters that need to be worn in offices that care about that sort of thing need to a.) be women's sweaters (because male clothes look 'sloppy') and b.) need to have some level of design/fit thought having gone into it. The reason for this is that women in the workplace can't be over or under sexual, so there's a limited range for how the clothes can interact with your body. (This also varies from person to person: I can wear short skirts and still look professional because my legs are shorter than my sister's, but she can wear tops I can't because my breasts are much larger than hers).
Oh, and at the cheaper places, 60% of stuff is for teenagers or college students. Literally.
So, for example, let's take Target as one of the cheaper brands since I was there earlier. For female clothes here are some examples:
[2] https://www.target.com/p/women-s-crewneck-pullover-sweater-k... = looks fine, but hover over and check o out the sleeve. Look how thin that is; making thin sweaters saves fabric. And again, this is 100% synthetic (and not fleece or other warm polyester; it's acrylic)
So it's basically all that until you spend at least 80 bucks on a single sweater.
There are cheaper things that keep you warm, but you can't wear them to an office:
Chrome destroys the battery on my laptop and is basically spyware these days, the Chrome-alikes are all dreadful - Vivaldi has the jankiest UI ever, Brave is unbearably sluggish, Edge runs processes that I didn't ask for like Microsoft Updater that bugs me constantly and spams the new tab screen with all sorts of low rent junk that I can't remove.
Firefox is my developing browser and I do really like it, but Safari my actual browsing browser because it's by far the best browsing browser on Macs.
If you leave macOS you can get much better frontends for WebKit, from the simple, rather Safari-like GNOME Web (AKA Epiphany) to the powerful Pentadactyl-like luakit.
Do you have adblockers or did you turn them off for this experiment? I would assume most people on HN have adblockers and other browser ad ons to prevent the malicious tracking that so many companies are hell bent on using. It's an anomaly for me to see any ads on my devices.
Yes. I mean, there were cool ideas in the other seasons too, but the magic wasn't there. It just felt like a 90s sci fi, with higher production value.
Incidentally, season 3's ending... "artificial god in the ear" was also a theme taken from bicameral mind... implying a regression in humans as hosts progressed. There was also an updated ML-ish version of Asimov's psychohistory, an "escaping the simulation" theme that reminded my of Hotz..
All the ingredients (besides anthony hopkins) were there, the cake just didn't bake good. I think the just messed up on the basics, character motivations. In Season 1's storyline, all the characters were either confused and clueless or all knowing and mysterious, so character motivations didn't matter much.
