@jones22_a @Manu93gj @DarthCaul @NickKyrgios It's enough if you shake hands with someone who used the "cream" (note, this case is not about a massage cream but a spray to repair cuts used by the physio).
Don't take my word, you can read the studies. And that's also why WADA is changing the rules, starting from 2027

Just read: Pandas Workout is an exceptional resource for anyone who wants to master data analysis with Pandas.

I had a blast going through its 50 exercises, and I learned a lot, feeling more confident with Pandas now.

@areanapoliit @sscnapoli @Imperatore1963 @Imperatore1963 stiamo ancora ridendo per la sua fantastica sparata su Osimhen e l'accordo segreto con il PSG per perfezionare l'acquisto a fine mercato e non "farsi prendere per la gola" 😅😂
Alla fine questa difesa a oltranza un po' fa sorridere, ma soprattutto tristezza🙄

Another paper pointing out in details what we've known for a while: LLMs (used via prompting) cannot make sense of situations that substantially differ from the situations found in their training data. Which is to say, LLMs do not possess general intelligence to any meaningful degree.

What LLMs can be good for, is to serve as knowledge/routine stores for an actual AGI. They're a memory -- a representation of a data corpus -- and memory is a necessary component of intelligence. But keep in mind that intelligence is not just memory.

The second edition of my book is out today! It has two new chapters on trees, and a new appendix explaining NP vs NP-Complete vs NP-Hard.

Please check it out and let me know what you think! https://t.co/aXdyrc3C5Y

[Marcello La Rocca @mlarocca]

Congrats @_egonschiele for improving a bestseller!
I read the 2nd edition of #Grokking #Algorithms
in the past week, this v2 is great, with new chapters on trees (including AVLs!) and for sure the funniest description of NP-hard problems🤭
