"Do senior devs still have to look up stuff on StackOverflow?"
Gentle reader, I have gone to StackOverflow to read answers that I wrote about behavior that I myself designed and implemented.
One can imagine transformer models like DALL-E creating a problem akin to the Grossman-Stiglitz paradox from finance but to the whole economy of cultural production. A quick thread.
The first day of @Reddit's /r/Place experiment.

@DrCameronMurray Would be interesting to look at utilisation rates as well - suspect part of the answer may be focus on increasing bed utilisation for efficiency (high 90s % is the current norm) over having lots of spare capacity.
So, the entropy of a random variable is simply the average bits of information needed to guess its value successfully! Even though the formula is complicated, its meaning is simple.
Entropy is simpler than you thought! (And probably also simpler than what you were taught.)
