> Do you ever "refactor" you maps to show updated understanding? Or do you find that this happens naturally?

Yes. I often add on things. So let's say I read a book and years later I realize that the author omitted something very important (IMHO). Then, I just add that knowledge to the appropriate room. I naturally remember what was or wasn't part of the book. With these systems you're training your mind to think a specific sequence of thoughts (in the act of recalling the experience of your mind palace). With training even the recall becomes fast. However,... you can't easy delete (not after rehearsing something for years). It's about as easy to delete something as it is to change a bad habit. It's just easier to make new habits (or add new information).

> Do connections between different areas stand out or form?

This is one of the coolest things that happens. A kind of thinking becomes possible that isn't available without the "whole topic" loaded in mind. You can see broad expansive connections. One fun activity (that you can do right now with two decks of flash cards) is to compare and contrast different books. Mentally walk both of them simultaneously forwards and backwards. You'll see how the connect and differ.

> Do you have examples of notices patterns or structure in knowledge because of it?
Sure

First with encoding... _where_ things occur in your memory palace is "free" information. So some people when learning foreign languages store different genders in different cities. Say you're trying to recall the gender of Boot (boat in German). You think, "where is that boot shaped like a boat?" instantly you know it's in a cafe in Williamsburg which is where you put all the "das" verbs making it "das Boot".

You say you're encoding the periodic table, if you put all the columns in the same room, you know instantly that you could replace your Gallium doping with Indium in your Si wafer (in this toy example).

If you want to learn the party trick of knowing which day of the week someone was born on. You can either get good at mental math and learn the equation and calculate it. Or, you can make a system of rooms in which you stick people who represent all the possible years to "cache" part of the calculation. Then the problem reduces to addition of small numbers.
Because in the tournaments that pay money, you're in person and there are no bots and all of your bot assisted skill falls away.

This is a good 'best-case' example that anyone could hope for, and like you say - you probably need to be one of first few engineering hires to have a shot at this type of outcome.

From what my archaeologist friends in North America tell me, the interest group is modern native Americans. They are the direct descendants of the Clovis culture.

Clovis-Americans have certain unique rights based on legal theories that their ancestors were the first human occupants of the land, which would be weakened or voided if substantial scientific evidence established that they simply replaced a prior human culture. Due to a perverse set of incentives, native American interest groups use these unique rights to actively interfere with archaeological research that might undermine their claims to being the first occupants of the land. While it has not stopped pre-Clovis research, it has greatly impeded it.

While the scientific evidence strongly suggests a pre-Clovis people, the legal theories and legislation that presume this is not the case are still active. These are evaluated on a case by case basis currently.

This is just anecdotal, but some people run their GPU for mining during Winter since its 'free heat'. This basically renders the GPU into a space heater, which is 3x-4x less efficient than a heat pump.

Additionally, some individuals steal electricity (eg. from their workplace, or if they have electricity included in their rental contract). Cryptocurrencies have thus conveniently enabled a form of electricity theft and fraud previously impossible for the individual.

If you mean operational emissions, then this is a trivial statement. If you mean total emissions, then this is a wrong statement, unless these people manufactured their own generators using zero emissions in the process.
In this article is this paragraph:

"It took a while, but they listened. We replaced our monstrous 7,000 LOC socket server with a minimal, maintainable implementation under 350 LOC. This was a huge win, but I had become disillusioned by the process."

How can I replace my current 48,395 LOC of Javascript + dependencies with something more maintainable? Can it be similarly be replaced with 350 LOC ?
Have you heard the term "bikeshedding"?
Optical fibres are also pretty good sensors so it's not unlikely that some fibres are added just for sensing purposes (they are eput into lots of bridges and other things for example). That said it highly depends on the length of your electrical cables if putting in fibre for communications makes sense. Typically (grossly simplified) you need optical amplifiers when you go significantly over transmission distances of 100km so they need power supplies, take up quite a bit of space etc..

I think non-crypto coverage of NFTs conflates a few different categories. There's a lot of stuff for sale on more niche venues like Hit et Nunc that's really just art made in a classically recognizable way; people don't flip there very effectively and seem to buy based on their own aesthetics. There's also generative art, most prominently Art Blocks, which has a very active collector community but has more recently entered into a speculative bubble because some pieces pull in high prices. And then there's avatar NFT projects (e.g. Pudgy Penguins), which I think what you're mostly talking about.
Honestly, one of the funniest things about our money system is that it keeps changing. Our understanding of money isn't really "finished". We ended up with a promise (also known as debt) based system by "accident" (through slow evolution) and that people have to catch up to this.

No, I wrote that, but it wasn't responding to anyone. I was making a general point that failing to consider counterfactuals regarding such technology is an error.

There is no way the startup you have been working for will keep your interest a priority, and you never know if your share will reach zero in the process of multi-stage VC rounds.

Third-party services should be mocked for integration and end-to-end testing. Error conditions with respect to these services should be something that is monitored and alerted on when appropriate.
Not quite. aws-vault still reads the secret out of the backend to create session credentials. You likewise could read the backend directly to get the credentials (assuming you are authenticated).

With the secret stored in a tpm it cannot be extracted. Instead you ask the tpm execute the hmac() function on your behalf with the secret only it can read.

That is interesting.

So... basically we are waiting until they get their fact checking wrong against a wrong person?

This must happen eventually.

But you could argue that so many public persons openly lie and even declare that "they can lie to public since they are not under oath", that it is hard to punish a company that tries to do right by fact checking a lot of falsehoods. It is reasonable to assume that when you correct a million falsehoods you will make some mistakes.
How do you run tests in parallel if part of the logic you are testing is a sql statement?

Do you just test them separately? For example, mock out the db when testing the app and then sequentially test the db to make sure the sql statement works as expected. However, this explicitly doesn't test the integration.

This doesn't effectively refute Stossel's claims in my opinion.

To claim Stossel was being misleading, they'd need to successfully argue that climate had a greater impact than forest management practices. This rebuttal article only "This is at odds with the majority of wildfire scientists, who suggest that both are major factors in driving the changes we are seeing".

This is an NPO whose full reason to exist is to increase climate awareness, so I'm sure they don't like the idea that climate wasn't the primary factor, but I don't see a good argument for why we should consider climate the primary factor vs forest management.

Their rebuttal reads like someone scrambling after their hand was caught in the cookie jar overstepping their bounds.

EDIT (to reply because max thread depth): "They are rebutting the claim that climate change is not a factor at all, which Stossel does claim in his video" - What? I watched the video - you linked it. He absolutely did not claim "climate change is not a factor at all" - he explicitly said that it IS a factor it just isn't the main one.
As someone who, back when I used to play (semi-professionally) I preferred to memorise all my music, I would say that memorising pieces for me was "effortless", and thus needed no technique, provided that when I would first study a piece, the intent was specifically to memorise it, rather than, say, to sight read, or analyse it.

I always found it extremely odd that, if the memorisation intent was not there, no amount of exposure would lead to effective memorisation. E.g. I could sight read an accompaniment 50 times and I would not remember most of it; once I decided to study specifically with the intent of "memorising" the piece, typically a handful of passes would be enough.

Scott Adams recently said something similar in one of his coffee podcasts. He made an experiment with himself: he has a short "skit" he always starts his show with, and he made a bet with himself how long it would take, if ever, to memorise that skit, simply by reading it, with no intentional effort to memorise it.

So far it's been over a year afaik :)
L2s and decentralized stablecoins keep the dream of a free decentralized economy alive. It's a smaller community for sure (as most pretend enthusiasts aren't actually interested when there's no Ponzi in it for them, and most detractors would rather focus on easier strawmen), but it exists and it's thriving.
I didn't say that. If you buy less of something, it'll cost more per unit. Manufacturing line utilization and re-tooling are also important. Someone has to figure out how to change everything cost-effectively.

The impossible part is we have yet to discover a density/cost comparison to hydrocarbons.

No one is going to “switch” to something that isn’t as good as the existing option. Couple this with “but electric cars!” that often are still just coal powered.

Plastics, military, actual logistics, China, we’re going to burn every drop of oil. We all better hope someone is working on sequestering options!

The paper does not say that calorie surplus was proportional to fat gain. It says that there was considerable variability in weight gain and fat gain, and that on average only 50% of the weight gained was fat.

Also, regardless of what the body's primary storage mechanism is, it's just obviously true that adult mammals experience changes in the amount of protein stored on their bodies on the same timescales as weight gain and loss occurs. Anyone who has ever started or stopped an exercise regime has experienced this.
With ‘citizen journalists’ who get footage from Twitter or NextDoor, that information can come from alternate non official sources.

I’ve seen quite informative descriptions by people: height, build, age, color of clothes but purposely leave out another physical characteristic. I’ve also seen it when someone does include this characteristic you will find people who complain that including this information furthers stereotypes (altho when video is included it’s kind of nonsensical to say that, unless it’s poor quality or at night), but when it’s a majority suspect you’ll have comments like, oh, just another *guy. Like zero self awareness.

Note: several folks have pointed out that I was totally wrong about Caddy. Sorry! I should look at it again before I spout off any more opinions about it.

Unlike nginx or Caddy^H^H^H^H^H, the Apache design and community encouraged writing modules (roughly akin to "middleware" in the modern server-side web stack) that hooked directly into the web server, rather than just using it as a static host + L7 proxy.

Furthermore, these modules could themselves expose language-specific APIs; ergo `mod_perl` and its ilk, which provide a bunch of useful building blocks for a full-stack webapp but are entirely specific to Apache's module API (vs. something more standard like FCGI, WSGI, etc.)

I've worked at some shops with heavy investments in Apache-based application servers and the cost of moving away from HTTPD modules and towards a more standalone, Apache-free implementation was generally quite high. Usually you need some other forcing function (rewrite in a new language, microservice decomposition, etc.) to justify the investment.

I mean, again, 7 years is a long enough timeline that I can’t really feel any negative opinions here. And “force” is much less relevant if we’re discussing what you call “candy.” Apple still pushes security updates for old macOS versions, so obsolescence isn’t even the right word to use, right?

I haven't read that book at all, but the blurb itself suggests that it will be just dripping with antisemitism:

> But the real power behind the war consisted of the bankers, the financiers, and the politicians, referred to, in this book, as The Secret Elite.

[ okay, that's not inherently antisemitic, but it finishes with ... ]

> Featured in this book are shocking accounts of [...] American and British zionists in cahoots with Rothschild's manipulated Balfour Declaration.

[ which clearly indicates how "bankers" and "financiers" is meant to be read. ]

In any case, to sustain such a thesis, you'd have to explain why the war could* have been won earlier than it actually was, and this post by Devereaux aptly points out that even the reasons commonly given for how WWI was eventually won (i.e., tanks, airplanes) didn't actually give the Allies the victory even in 1918, and couldn't have even earlier.
"When humanity was younger" would have been a perfect phrasing.
