Two reasons also. Some of the fastest research supercomputers in the US have been nVIDIA based. Sitting at a national lab, it's laughable how much more support there is from nVIDIA. Getting a DGX box is easy - there is nothing comparable from AMD's side.

🆕 range-streams: Streaming range requests in Python https://github.com/lmmx/range-streams

Docs: https://range-streams.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

`pip install range-streams` https://pypi.org/project/range-streams

Sometimes just a few bytes of metadata tells you whether you need the entire file, e.g.
Looking through zips (decoding particularly indicative files) since they’re compressed individually
Looking through images to check if their metadata is what you want (e.g. when building a dataset)

The RangeStream class in this library wraps all of the behind-the-scenes tasks needed to treat a URL as a seekable file-like object via httpx streaming responses and partial content requests.

Any time a new range is added to it, it’ll fire off the necessary range requests, and take care to keep track of the ranges with a linked list (and for archive codecs even name the ranges with filenames). I’m expecting it’ll speed up a lot of applications involving checking values of things (the one exception is tarballs, which aren’t amenable to this approach), and should be pretty broadly usable.

As an example, a few ”codecs” are included which demonstrate efficient uses of the RangeStream class to read file-format specific info for peeking at ZIP archive contents or checking PNG metadata (e.g. number of image channels, whether it’s got alpha transparency).

Contrib/codec suggestions/feedback welcome :-)

I appreciate your reply. I had heard of Midori but didn't know much. It's good to learn more about those efforts.

Even when I say "they could've", it was in some part wishful thinking that we can even get to a state of the art where constant bug-patching can go away. I believe we can in theory. I also know that the nuance of reality often gets in the way of that kind of idealism.
It's quite uncomfortable to read but that doesn't mean it's not correct.

I remember reading an article claiming that The Number Of The Beast was the start of his "later, post-talented phase".

This part of the article _striongly_ reminded me of that:

In 1978, he suffered a near stroke from a blocked carotid artery that temporarily paralyzed one side of his body and left him to choose between the Damocles sword of massive seizure or the scalpel of a risky operation. He took the surgery, beat the odds, and immediately wrote "The Number of the Beast" (1980) -- four lubricious characters on a romp through various universes -- "to see if my brain would work." (Many critics said No.)

As a kid, I loved Have Spacesuit Will Travel. But even as a 14-15 year old I understood Number Of The Beast was not the same...

Still waiting for them to open source P2. It’s been ‘on their roadmap’ for years.
I don't think this article tells the full story.

When you love what you're making, you can do it in small increments amid interruptions, and pick up right where you left off. Your brain never leaves "maker mode"; the gears keep spinning in the background while you're away from it.

That's how it's been on my side projects for years.

You might get large blocks of uninterrupted time at a job during weekday office hours, but not in side projects evenings and weekends. Not if you have a family.

When you love the project, you will be surprised at how well you can progress in 5, 10, 15-minute intervals virtually as if they were a single block of time.

I've returned to half-done code (not even syntactically valid), half-written commit messages, debug sessions, and picked it up without skipping a beat.

I think the interruptions are harmful when you're working on something you don't fully understand. You had to ramp up on it quickly, and to get through the task, you're juggling a whole clump of new, unfamiliar information in your short-term memory --- some of it not even proper information, but unconfirmed, competing hypotheses on how various things work. You have to work hard just to build that up so you can navigate and contextualize what you're doing. Much of that short term information can vaporize if you are interrupted.

But that's not exactly the situation of maker. The maker knows what he or she is making. He or she understands the existing thing, inside out; none of that vaporizes due to an interruption.

So how can someone deal with interruptions who is in this situation? I think: write stuff down! Don't carry it all in your head. Document. Open a "knowledge file" and type. If you have three competing, unconfirmed hypotheses about how something works, write them out. After an interruption, you can reload the context by re-reading that file. If you have a plan about what your next steps are, write those steps down. Write down what you've already tried and the results.
That just means there’s a political element to human interaction, not that everything is political. Astronomy is about the cosmos, not politics, but astronomers engage in politics like everyone else. There’s an entire world outside of humanity, and some people are not interested in turning that into more human bickering, which you can easily find in explicitly political and news discussions.
When an owner registers their horse to complete in major races, they need to satisfy a bunch of requirements. Some of which: the name can’t be the same as another horse, it can’t use a copyrighted term, there is a length limit, the name can’t be the same as a real person’s name, and it can’t be profane. Also, a lot of people choose names because they think those specific names will bring them luck or just because they are fun. Sometimes, people also try to include names in the horse’s name that are related to its lineage
> Authentic spirituality is not some little flicker or buzz of knowingness, not a psychedelic blast-through or a mellow hanging-out on some exalted plane of consciousness, not a bubble of immunity, but a vast fire of liberation, an exquisitely fitting crucible and sanctuary, providing both heat and light for what must be done.

Strikes me as gatekeeping.
I suppose I don't disagree, but I don't think realistic vs. unrealistic is the right way to frame this. Questions like "should we eat meat" or "should we promote having kids" are huge, cross-cutting issues which strike to the heart of what we value as a society. The idea that you could analyze them solely in terms of the climate, that climate concerns would compel us to ban meat if it were politically feasible, is already fundamentally confused.

In vitro, and studies are underway to determine if it would be effective in people. As such, it is not recommended in any way to use currently to treat or prevent COVID-19, and can be dangerous - as mentioned in the FDA link I shared above.

I just watched more from the video series posted above, and found one that illustrates this perfectly. I watched it multiple times: The lifeguard seemed loosely focused on the person the entire time, even when the person (to my eyes) looked fine, and when the person finally began going under the lifeguard jumped on the situation.

What is truly remarkable & indicative of the panic response is the fact that person was about 2ft from the ledge. In a rational state of mind they would know that from a few seconds earlier when they were safely in the tube. But that knowledge went completely out the window when their panic response kicked in:

>would the blood pump so fast that the prion(s) is already in your body.

Well, I guess the question is "is it in the blood yet or not". As someone who have had lots of stuff injected into his veins multiple times (cancer treatment) I can state for a fact the from injection until pretty much full body exposure can be counted in seconds on one hand. I'm not a doctor but my guess is it would only work if you cut the finger off pretty much instantly (counting from the time it enters the bloodstream). Of course it would take longer from a small cut than injected into the big pipes. I wouldn't trust it to work after a few seconds though.

The matching thing is a solved problem in hospitals. The patient meets a doctor level provider for the first visit then is assigned proper care based on the diagnosis with a lower level provider. The problem you will have is that you have a lot of low level provider with varying skills and a high level provider will have a hard time matching patient to the correct provider capable of administering the correct treatment protocols.

Very little of the NYT is an example of what I was trying to talk about with "highly commercial journalism" -- that is writing about things with a strong tie to commerce. Sites like The Wirecutter or The Points Guy.

Out of context much?

From the abstract:

> We identified significant effects of COVID-19 in the brain with a loss of grey matter in the left parahippocampal gyrus, the left lateral orbitofrontal cortex and the left insula. When looking over the entire cortical surface, these results extended to the anterior cingulate cortex, supramarginal gyrus and temporal pole. We further compared COVID-19 patients who had been hospitalised (n=15) with those who had not (n=379), and while results were not significant, we found comparatively similar findings to the COVID-19 vs control group comparison [...]

> I imagine now days with everything being made in Unity/Unreal etc, it's much harder to reverse engineer.

Unity games are actually incredibly pleasant to reverse engineer most of the time, since they are built on .NET/Mono. Unless they are intentionally obfuscated (don't think I had that more than once) you can pretty much just drag and drop the Data\Managed\Assembly-CSharp.dll into your .NET decompiler of choice. The byte code is pretty close to source, with pretty much the entire class structures still there. Only the inside of functions has to be restored, thus the AST might be slightly different and variable names gone.

Even more comfortable are pure .NET games... simply attached the full IDE to debug. Rider even takes care of the decompilation on the fly.

Whenever I read anything about networking on AWS, I feel glad by having switched to GCP. On Google Cloud, you can put a project into production without having to fumble with networking at all (off course, the options are there if you need it).

I feel more productive by only having to split my cloud resources by projects - which is a high-level concept, and a good abstraction - instead of security groups - which is a low-level implementation detail.

If they are stuck on that policy, they should give you a smart card/yubikey heck even a fingerprint reader (You can't rotate these :-p ) to unlock your device.

You will just end up copying and pasting it around. I'd rather avoid that as there's many ways to copy out your clipboard with Javascript or a malware payload that somehow got onto your host.
