Ah efnet. That place was the wild west since they never adopted services. I remember channel takeovers and recoveries with extreme tactics like forcing netsplits with DOS attacks on the servers.

I consider Michael Polanyi's works to be very important in a certain way.

MP's The Tacit Dimension (1966, ~120pp) is a good introduction to his ideas about "Tacit knowledge", i.e. 'we can know more than we can tell', e.g. facial recognition. , A quick and enjoyable read that might appeal to many in this crowd.

Akin to Hadamard's Psychology of Invention in the Mathematical Field.

If you've got time, MP's earlier Personal Knowledge (1958, ~400pp) might be a worthwhile deeper-dive. I recall that his style reminded me of Lewis Thomas.
Australian consumer rights exist independently of the warranty offered by the producer. My guess is that it's perfectly legal not to offer an explicit warranty (or one with very short duration), however, it is illegal to refuse refund/repair when reasonably requested. Crucially, the lack or expiry of an explicit warranty is not a valid defence -- it's about the product meeting quality expectations given its cost.
It is not exactly the same. Mini runs JS on the server for you.

That's quite a claim. If that's true, why aren't they in jail?

I'm sure they have many powerful enemies who would love to see them convicted of these multiple felonies.
>10:31 – Is math discovered or invented?
>The way it was posed sounds like it was asking for a dogmatic judgment on the nature of doing math

I don't think that's a fair representation of Lex's question. Or at least it didn't come across that way to me. Lex was asking it in the context of his earlier question regarding whether math would be a common 'language' we share with aliens. The 'discovered/invented' question bears on that concern.
Half of a Yellow Sun[1] by Chimamanda Ngozi.

If you want to sample probably a different style and culture, I would highly recommend this book. This is a 2006 novel by a prolific African writer and is set in the late 1960s Biafran times in Nigeria. There is a lot in it and is richly written.

It’s a shame they start at 100mg. I think I’d need to start at 200-300mg. I guess I’d have to buy three packs and then use regular caffeine pills to fill in. Gets a little pricey though.

As a powerlifter who has dealt with depression many times in the past, I totally agree. The beauty of lifting is that it gives you a set of goals with very clear success metrics that are readily attainable. There are also well proven programs for success into the intermediate level that don't require much tuning regardless of discipline (bodybuilding, powerlifting, weight lifting, strongman, etc). No matter what happens in your professional or personal life, the iron will always be there for you :)

At least the Feds try and hide. Not sure they'd hand out stickers.

Will happen to Amazon what has happened to the other big techs assuming U.S. laws / principles could just be applied world-wide without taking local laws / principles into account.

Amazon is getting under the scrutiny it deserves, and it will lose some of its current competitive advantages by being forced, fairly or not, to (over) comply with local requirements.

Easiest card to play for countries trying to defend their historic, local players 'who pay their taxes in [insert country] and comply with its laws'.
Yeah this situation is what the dispute system is for. You complain to your bank, the bank sends that to the merchant’s acquiring bank via Visa or whatever, and then someone at Uber will take notice of your dispute in some fashion and you’ll likely eventually get your money back.

Falcon 9 doesn't use an FTS manually triggered by an RSO. It uses an AFTS, which is controlled by the rocket itself.

My guess is it was armed for the early stages of the flight (when there was still a risk something could go seriously wrong and the rocket could start heading towards Orlandit), but it was disarmed (or just given very generous parameters) once the rocket was downrange a ways.
One neat trick is that you can extend GPT-2 117M's context window from 1024 up to 30k on a TPU, since TPUs can allocate up to 300GB of memory for backprop. https://twitter.com/gwern/status/1218001309435072513

It's not quite 1M words, but a 30k context window is big enough for e.g. most midi songs.

Learned SoftICE at my first job out of university, writing Windows device drivers. I also object to the “ancient” designation!
I keep saying that this idea of PHEVs being transitional is wrong and it should be easy to understand why.

A BEV that meets essentially all of your needs in terms of range has to have a battery ten times the size (give or take) of a PHEV that runs on electricity for 80-90% of your travel.

No matter how good batteries get, ten times will always be ten times - the expense, the environmental impact, the weight, the charging time.

Think about ICE cars - at least in the US, people want tons of power that they rarely use - you can get a car with 300 hp, but most of the time you're not using 30 hp.

It is never going to be optimal to have a battery enough for all your travel any more than an ICE for the maximum performance you might want.

The rational transportation device of the future has a small battery, a small ICE, and a big electric motor.

But the point I am going to keep making until I hear a good counterargument is that this is independent of foreseeable technology advances in batteries. It doesn't matter how you get your kWh or what it costs, it's not good for anyone or anything to utilize ten times the amount.
There might be a stigma in certain places that are becoming isolated from the field, but I would be flabbergasted to hear of any stigma in biology existing on the west or east costs where biotech is, where professors are regularly collaborating directly with biotech companies, where professors are regularly founding their own biotech startups, where graduate programs are offering internship opportunites with private companies, where graduate programs are regularly hosting symposiums with industry representatives, and where departments regularly see the majority of their graduating classes go into industry rather than academia. I think this worldview is two decades out of date.

You keep insisting that they're the same when they're not, and then you try to subtly expand your original claim of "using less memory by hashing" to "to be more memory and compute efficient" (emphasis mine), just to force them into the same bucket.

Yes, obviously locality sensitive hashing is a form of hashing. The fact that it's locality sensitive is important for this application, but you'd rather ignore that and insist on labeling them as the same thing just because they're both hashing.
This was so well stated and very much reflects my experience.

I have seen many engineers in charge of leading projects who miserably failed because they weren’t able to “influence” other teams on which their project depended (“who are you again and why do I have to do this for you?”) while their manager still held them fully accountable without offering any help to step in and exercise power against the other team.

The solution that always saved my ass was: build a network inside your organization, help the tech leads of other teams whenever you can even if it causes you some short term pain, and one day you’ll be able to successfully claim favors from them and influence a team towards your goal even if you have no formal authority over it.

The amount of power managers have over engineers in certain organizations is truly horrific. They will always take all the credit and none of the blames, throwing engineers under the bus in front of their directors. It should be the other way around, most of the times.

Great comment.

Paraphrasing what one reviewer said on GR, it's a good read if you are taking life too seriously, or, the complete opposite.

I didn't get it the first time I read it.

I do find myself going back to the riddles and the poems in the essays now and then when I feel I'm stuck, blocked, or trapped in a loop. It made me ... more humble?

Also a good read if you just want to learn more about Korean Buddhism and Kong-an's in general.

Forecasting Time Series Data with a Seq2seq RNN in TensorFlow [Tutorial]
Only time will tell for sure. I think the shift from SourceForge+Patches to Github+PullRequests drove significant change in the number and demographics of developers actively committing to open source projects (that is just a belief at this point, I haven't found hard data to confirm or deny it). Large multi-developer projects like the ones you cite in the Debian data tend to be older because it generally takes time for projects to mature to large developer counts. If that's the case (and all this is very much data-poor speculation), then you would expect larger multi-developer projects today to preferentially exhibit the older GPL-biased license preferences in ways that an equivalent sample in 2025 would not or would with lower strength.

Bergson's Time and Free Will: An Essay on the Immediate Data of Consciousness

Not exactly unknown but Bergson isn't as fashionable as he used to be and often derided for his belief in spiritualism and failure to understand Einstein's relativity.

The subtle grid reminds me, oddly perhaps, of OneNote. It was my favorite note taking app in college, and there was an implicit/invisible grid at the base of every page with similar click and drag boxes for text and other media. Ever since 2018 when Microsoft began removing features (i.e. local notebook support) and stopped updating the full desktop version, I've been searching for a viable replacement and debating just building one myself. The continued free availability of the depreciated desktop app has stopped me from taking the plunge, but OneNote is no longer something I expect to count on forever.

There's definitely a crowd of people who like visual note taking apps with just a little bit of organizing framework. And there's definitely demand for that kind of application.

A company can choose to ban you from their service for this. Uber eats, probably not an issue. But imagine the inconvenience of not having Uber for the rest of your life. Or worse, Airbnb which doesn’t even have a close competitor.

I would begrudgingly take the loss to continue having access to their marketplaces. These companies have notoriously terrible customer service and they don’t really have any reason to fix it.
Except it's not a myth. For centuries mead, ale or small (low alcohol) beer were the standard drinks throughout the day, occasionally cider from crab and wild apples for the poorest. Wine for those with a little more means. Tea and coffee were for the wealthy until the 19th century, and something to add the drug of choice, sugar, to. Something for the great and the good in the tea rooms and coffee houses of London, until they arrived in huge quantities bringing prices down to commodity level.

Awareness of microbes, boiling for sterility, and water treatment was a long time coming. Water was clean if far enough upstream, or you had a pristine well. In towns and cities, forget it. :)

> Why the assumption of left or right, when at least in the US most people identify as independents?

Most people don’t identify as independents, and, anyhow, studies of voting behavior show that most independents have a clear party leaning between the two major parties and are just as consistently attached to the party they lean toward as people who identify with the party.

So not only is it the case that most people don't identify as independents, most of those who do aren't distinguishable from self-identified partisans when it comes to voting behavior.

Architecture is one thing, but I'm never going to be better at management than a good full-time manager who's also growing in role.

AWS is quite literally a printing press for Amazon that prints it $$ and let's it devour other competitors in the retail eCommerce segment by selling at close to no margins.

You can write object-oriented code in C too (e.g. gtk, glib etc). It just involves much more boilerplate, and it doesn't offer the same amount of built-in safety guarantees.

So I know enough Modern C++ to use it, but why would I when there are far better alternatives?
The fact that Wikipedia exists, is frequently (though not always) quite good, has citations and references, and ranks highly or is used directly for "instant answers" ...

Yes, I find myself relying far more on specific domain searches, either in the Internet sense, or by searching for books / articles on topics rather than Web pages. Because so much more traditionally-published information is online, this actually means the net of online-based search has improved, but not for the most part because of improved Web-oriented resources (Webpages, discussions, etc.), but because old-school media is now Web-accessible.
