> just relaxing should be enough. At least that’s my case.

Yep, this is a very important one.

I've been fortunate enough to have a pretty good ability to fall asleep and generally wake up feeling rested. Most nights I'll wrap up with a movie and often times I'll fall asleep in what feels like about 10 minutes after I decide "ok, I'm going to sleep now".

I believe this is very tied into not feeling like I must wake up at a specific time. It allows me to goto sleep when I'm tired and wake up when I naturally wake up. There's no laying down and thinking "ok it's 11:17pm, I have to be up at 7am". This could easily turn into "it's now 11:58pm, why can't I sleep, crap I have to be up in 7 hours" to "...how the heck is it 1:30am, this is bad, I need to be up in 5.5 hours" and now you're done for, your sleep quality is going to be bad because you'll for sure think if you can't fall asleep in a few minutes you're going to risk sleeping through any alarm.

But without the pressure of having to be up on a schedule, 99.99% of the time if I went to bed at 11pm I'll be up at about 6:30am or 7am without an alarm and feel good about it.

This has happened to me time and time again. Any time where something comes up and I "must" be up at an early hour with alarm it affects my ability to fall asleep the night before. Usually the more important the thing is the harder it will be to fall asleep. Like ensuring I'm up to catch a flight or anything with a hard line on the time.

I think a good yardstick for this is something that is generative; so, for instance, can the system generate a good programming challenge question? This is still a no.

From my interviews: Airbnb, Google, Netflix are the most consistently good engineers.

In terms of total portfolio it ranges from a few percent to ~30 percent. But that’s dependent on amount previously invested.

A better measure might be percent of total yearly investment that goes into crypto, since we’re talking about inflow. I’d put that at around 20%, with the other 80% going towards retirement and socks/etfs

Lol, I live in SF. I've seen two cruisers waiting at a red light watch a car go right through it and do nothing. I'm not complaining or anything, but that guy is defo wrong that cops will ticket anyone.
In most jurisdictions, homicide is entirely justifiable when it is committed in the act of defending oneself or others from potentially lethal forces, where a reasonable person would conclude that committing murder was necessary to preserve those lives.
Seeing "caffeine" after substance abuse/addiction is really an eye-rolling moment.
Sure sleeping is important. But coffee = substance abuse? Get a life.

On a separate note. 1mg of melatonin does wonders if you help it a bit (don't take it and then stare at the screen). As everyone probably knows by now, the recommended dose is 0.3-1mg so you could get even better results by splitting the 1mg pills, but 1mg works for me.

It's surprisingly difficult to get 1mg melatonin pills, so the life-hack there is to buy the kids version.

Also heavy curtains and total black-out of the bedroom does wonders. Electric light is a pretty effective sleep disruptor

I can understand the people here complaining about how it's "difficult" to get an ARIN ASN. But you don't really need an ASN unless you intend to be an ISP.

If you want to be serious about having and using an ASN for its intended purpose, you're looking at a minimum of a couple hundred dollars a month anyways for a 1U system in colocation with a hosting company that will set up a router-to-router BGP relationship with you. Even if to start, just singlehomed to one IP transit provider sending you full tables. And ideally also a connection to an IX that exists at the same location.

In US dollars, budget something like $2400-3000 a year to be serious about it what I described above...

The ARIN minimum bar to meet is actually not that high - you need to register an LLC or the local equivalent in your state or province, though of course something like a C-corp is perfectly acceptable as well. Other corporate legal entities like a US state's 501c3 or a Canadian non-profit society or registered charity are also acceptable.

They are not set up for individual persons to get an ASN.

One of the main purposes of having an ASN is to be truly multihomed, to 2 or more transit providers sending you full BGP tables, and you announce your own IP space to your upstream(s), as small as at least one /24 of ipv4, and whatever size you have for ipv6 such as a /32, or /36 or /48, and to join peering exchanges. The number of individual persons who really need to have a BGP-to-BGP full tables relationship with more than 1 ISP are really small. If you need such a thing you are almost certainly some sort of corporate entity (see above) and doing the ARIN membership joining paperwork should be very straightforward.
Well, from what I understand, China's sinopharm vaccine doesn't work well, and they've not wanted to use Pfizer/Moderna even though there are no technical or legal obstacles for them to do so. They do have a couple new vaccines on the way though.
I trust the developers I work with to try and build code to spec.

I verify their code with testing because humans are fallable.
>> No, the metric used in this paper was the percentage of questions it could solve against the hidden tests.

Right, that's my mistake. The APPS dataset has natural language specifications and test cases for evaluation. It actually includes Codeforces problems.

The excuse quoted in the second part of your comment is an excuse. If a large language model can complete a code generation task, that's because it's seen an example of the code it's asked to generate before. Any claims to the contrary need very strong evidence to support them and there's typically no such thing in papers like the AlphaCode one.
The narrow economic point about it being hard to sell a new game might make sense as a warning to new indie developers, but everything else is an unhinged luddite rant against how people want to spend their free time. There is not some pool of labor that would otherwise be fixing infrastructure or building whatever the author happens to think is worthwhile if only it wasn’t being squandered on personal projects. He might as well go on a rant against the number of puzzles or ship in a bottles being built. There will always be tons of bad art and thats absolutely fine.

#define B17 (1<<16)

unsigned swapbits(unsigned a) {
return ((a & B6 == a & B17) ? a : (a ^ (B6 | B17)));

Here's some BFP:

unsigned swapbits(unsigned a) {
unsigned flip = (a & B6 == a & B17);
return (a ^ ((flip<<5) | (flip<<16)));
}

int and double are C's implicit lingua francas for underspecified literals and implicit type conversions. Throwing int everywhere is redundant like "ATM machine."
It wasn't on the network side but rather the business side, where Apple had an unexpected amount of leverage due to its popularity: the iPod was incredibly popular — not just selling well but being a prestige item with an outsized cultural impact — and AT&T was eager enough to get the iPhone that they were willing to give up a significant amount of control over the device and its data plans.

Previously, the U.S. carriers were basically king-makers selecting which devices were available for sale and what features were enabled on them — to the point where I knew a couple of people who imported phones from Europe to get something which either wasn't available from a U.S. carrier or was restricted to one they didn't wish to be a customer of for some reason (e.g. poor coverage), and it wasn't uncommon to hear about people reflashing phone firmware to remove things like the carrier's wallpaper or preinstalled apps which the user was prevented from deleting. I refreshed a phone simply to change the audio codec settings because Cingular had restricted it to the lowest-bitrate which was painfully garbled.

That's not what I'm "allowing" though.

Whether or not objective reality exists, I'm still going to make decisions.
At some point you have to figure out how to make the best tasting lemon drink you can out of the lemons you have. Making sure the rich don't get the money is less important to me than making sure the poor and less than rich actually get good outcomes. There's a word for punishing people even if it hurts you and in a way that could be avoided. It's called spite. We should care about helping the poor, and if possible, in a way that's not overly generous to those that don't need it. But we shouldn't be afraid to help the poor just because it also benefits those we deem not worthy.

It's a somewhat subtle but I think very important distinction that needs to be considered in these discussions of the rich benefiting in these instances. It's almost impossible to prevent people other than those targeted from benefiting, and those with the most flexibility (which comes with money) are those most likely to be able to take advantage in some way of programs not aimed at them (if you help people in poor physical health by supplying money for physical therapy, companies that offer that service will benefit). Trying to prevent that at the expense of the people you're trying to help is not beneficial to anyone (especially since economically the input resources and output outcomes are not always linearly related).
I rather liked the near campy look of some of those puppets. I thought it helped create subtle nostalgia for the original trilogy.

Usually notation is defined for higher order functionals when the need arises - when a new result is found to have interesting properties. Topological proofs on function spaces can use third order functions.

"simpler and faster" is not enough, as the key to beat TS is interop with existing ecosystem.

You can have a "simpler" type system yet still end up with an overall less convenient DX. As for "faster", really who cares. I feel that these people in big tech who comes up with these stuff, with their massive codebases, have different pain points to most of us.

The fact that they spent the last how many years changing syntax around doesn't give a good impression on priority either. To be fair, this whole thing started as an OCAML syntax, which is a questionable motivation in the first place.

EDIT: see the problem i have with your post is its tone and refusal to read what i actually wrote. if you read it properly i am not saying anything different to what you seem to be saying: if you are a good programmer you can be productive in any language, including lisp. if you are a crappy programmer, knowing how to write lisp is not going to save you. knowing how to write lisp is trivial. even implementing some (minimal) dialect of lisp is not too difficult

on the other hand, i think that repl-driven development that is available to many (all?) common lisp implementations is unmatched in any language, and i think that this is unique to common lisp. please see the post by mikelevins in this thread that details this process. i think this can be a great productivity booster for production as well as exploratory programming. in any event i enjoy it a lot

You are right! Bitcoin and Ethereum (in its first PoW phase) work in the same way. The "wave of consensus" described in the Bitcoin white paper is the true innovation that enables this kind of decentralized government. But the core principle is the same as that present in all agreements made in human history. This is just a new way to agree to things, but let's not discount it much, it's still a true innovation that enables things not possible before.

I wonder how much Tesla pays for their motors. I wonder how much they'd save if they only needed 1/3rd as much material.

This kind of material-minimizing innovation seems like it could go a long way. It feels like if someone wanted to mass produce power-dense electric motors, they could radically reduce the cost of a motor by simply using less materials. If they can get to scale. If they can sell them like crazy, which they should, since they should be cheaper to make, as the material inputs are so much less.

Koenigsegg of course doesn't care about production costs. It's expected that every item that goes into the car is going to be built via the most exorbinant processes possible. But the underlying idea of using far less material to make a motor sounds extremely attractive to me.

We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people. . . "
