You can assume a roughly 10-100x slowdown on pretty much everything. It also does not feature type safety, so while it is easier to code in it it is also easier to make mistakes. Other than that... Just a simple scripting language
Umm.. have you tried having a positive identity instead of negative? I believe it would do a lot for us if lemmy was percieved as a 'community of smart people with interesting discussions' instead of 'not reddit'
I believe you see the main issue with your experiences - the sample size. With small enough sample you can experience almost anything. Wisdom is knowing what you can and what you cant extrapolate to the entire population
This is the most unnecessary nerd comment I'll ever make on this platform.. but
I believe the bell curve wouldn't represent the expected distribution in this case. I m not entirely sure what would be the correct distribution but I suspect Chi^2 or poisson.
This is not a good quality article from the point of statistics.
The main statistical claim is that OE fails 9% of the times on USMLE. If you want to form a reasonable conclusion from that you need to compare it to control. The control here would be the fail rate of an average doctor. Or to be frank maybe better control would be the fail rate of a bad doctor because if OE beats that then there is an arguement to be made that there are people who OE could help.
Passing grade os USMLE Clinical Knowledge exam is 214/300 and mean score is 246. Idk the specific scoring but if it is scored the usual way then I believe this article is overly dramatic
I m not sure what point are you representing but I think it is good moment to point out that especially in Germany trains run whenever they feel like it nowadays
My favorite part is empty array truthiness.
[] is falsy ( [] == true returns false ), but ![] is false. !![] is obviously true. (! is inversion as in all normal languages)
My coworker with whom I m assigned on a project was off on thursday and friday and I m off on monday. Good luck understanding my autistic ass code. Tee hee
To me x86 is currently in similar position to internal combustion engine cars. We are already almost certain some of the alternatives available right now are better.
The reason ICE/x86 seem better is that they have the benefit of being greatly optimised due to years of market dominance pulling billions if not trillions of dollars into research. Some company has to sacrifice a lot of money to get the ball rolling on new tech as it is very difficult for an emerging technology to break old tech dominance. However considering Apple seems to be pulling similar numbers on a way less developed architecture I d say we might be close.
