Maybe the root cause is that your desire to "be better" or attain a goal is too strong. It sounds like you're aware of some of this already.

I know that for me, I once tried to optimizing just about everything in my life. That led me to try to learn how to do everything better and better. At one point I realized that I was overthinking and optimizing everything, even which path I would take to walk to the bus to save some time. The stress of attaining perfection just got to be too much, so I just worked on letting go of trying to improve everything.

So, maybe work on just being okay with things how they are and not striving too much to be even better. A lot of this requires being aware of your thoughts and moods so you can change in the moment. I've found meditation helps a lot there.
That makes no sense. If the right was trying to build an underclass of workers, then the easiest way to do it would be to not build a wall at the southern border.

The simple explanation here is the correct one: they oppose abortion on social grounds.
They seem to be removing heavy features from often-used pages. I would imagine this change creates quadratic savings in data fetching for the timeline.
If you don't see contempt in the author's evaluation of other people's behavior, you're either not looking, or not a great judge of it.

> I'd challenge you to entertain the idea that this post has some good advice, and follow some of it. I have no data, but I expect you'll be happier as a result.

Personally, I don't fit any of the implied criteria for "terminal onlineness," so your challenge isn't possible. You don't merely lack data, you lack a valid reason for assuming this advice applies to me or any other person whose habits you know nothing about. I recommend you entertain the idea that neither righteousness in your conviction nor confidence in your words transform your assumptions and personal experiences into broadly applicable maxims.

Even if this advice addresses problems you, personally, struggle with, that's not necessarily true for everybody. I know brilliant, happy, well-adjusted people, like my wife, who engage in behavior this author deems undesirable. It's just not that cut and dried. Perhaps the author's conclusions suffer from sampling bias? Regardless, I will still skip the rest of their blog entries.
On your point 3.
I don't disagree, I just observe that most disciplines of science use their specific journal writing styles to force a style of writing which is generally more about conforming to the norms of the discipline rather than any other benefit.

Stuffy science can't answer this: Why would a youtube video with a DOI not be an acceptable form of publishing. (ignore the archiving issue for the discussion).

You don't have to tone down content complexity, you only see that in sci-coms on social media because they are focusing on engagement rather than just using the platforms for their network effect.
This doesn't actually explain anything, though. "Major party adopts a plank I detest" does not imply "therefore my personal policy preferences become inverted". Liz Cheney isn't suddenly cozying up to Greenpeace just because the rest of her caucus disagrees with her about Jan 6.
Midjourney seems to have better hunch for artistic drama. Though I'm not very satisfied with the AI outcomes, probably because they don't watch movies(yet!).

I think where you can see contempt, is in the characterization that the internet breeds a certain sense of humour and that it's an objectively bad one. Irony is not unique to the internet, nor is self-deprecating humour, or cynical humour, or are slang words. Usually when you hear an internet-slang used in real life it's a reference, not an earnest attempt to use the word legitimately. Like when people reference TV shows or movies, you've have to have seen it to enjoy the reference. If using it works for your in-group then that's great, you all understand eachother.
I can’t imagine dealing with the shit show of BT outside of the Apple ecosystem in 2022.

You’re not going to like the obvious answer - get into the Apple ecosystem and buy Apple headphones.

They seamlessly switch between my iPhone, iPad and Mac. If I am watching something on my iPad and my iPhone rings, they automatically switch. If I start watching a video on my iPad and then start playing a video on my iPhone, they automatically switch.

Not to mention if I’m using my AirPods with my AppleTV at night and my wife starts talking to me, I just take one side out and the TV pauses.

Of course they work in just the opposite manner. If I put them in, audio switches to them.

I’m not sure if auto switching from my watch. But since I can take phone calls on it anyway. It doesn’t matter as much.

Also if I pair to any device connected to my Apple ID, all of my other devices automatically show them as an option - iPad, iPhone, AppleTV, Watch, Mac.
For L1 and L2, the cost is all based on the cost of the circuit. Lower power means more cars charging at the same time.

This is because all EVs have an AC to DC converter (L1 and 2 are AC, just different voltages).

L3 ends up being a lot more expensive due to the high powered AC to DC converter required and usually a dedicated power line.

Further, because of the amount of amps being pushed, L3 chargers need special cabling (usually liquid cooled).
Thanks for letting me know, and sorry if that was frustrating. Your goal is to clear away all the tiles. Tiles that are linked together clear together. Links are made when same-color tiles are contiguously adjacent to each other. Blank spaces are filled in from above. You have a fixed number of moves available to clear them all. Hope that helps!
> These alternatives are far more familiar and easier to work with. You can get most (but not all) of the benefits of NixOS with far less work.

> Worse is better.

There are some potential alternatives out there that seem inspired by Nix but which are less strict. I think a system that offers and manages Nix's purity but doesn't require it could end up the final winner some day. Shea Levy had some ideas for eventually achieving this in Nix that he called 'Nomia' (probably riffing on the name of Sander van der Burg's Dysnomia, I'd guess), but his life circumstances changed before the project really materialized. But Nix still could be the place where that is first achieved.

Meanwhile new container image-building DSLs like Dagger¹ and Bass² look a lot like a Nix which is impure by default, and bash builders are replaced with BuildKit directives. And there's Denxi³, which looks more like a Nix that lets you reduce its purity when you want to.

For now, though, the Nix ecosystem is still vastly more capable than these alternatives because of all the incredible work that Nixpkgs represents. Nix we know it today could still end up the concrete basis for what succeeds it, and not just an inspiration.

> As with FP, eventually, practicality beats purity I guess.

Until you can take enough advantage of purity that it's practicality is higher.
The post only mentions Uber Eats in the article’s tags. That lowers credibility a bit I think? Uber Eats seems like it has the potential to level out the lack of profitability on the rides side. And they have a better, more reliable service than Doordash, imho, which has a 32B market cap.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions, where the hype around both DALL-E 2 and GPT-3 will create a new original wave of disinformation and new levels of reality distortion.

Like GANs being abused by DeepFakes, the exact same thing will happen with DALLE-2, GPT-3, etc and it always ends in tears.
In my opinion before we even get to that point Elon and others will first have to figure out how to include only people with psychological and physical profiles conducive to such a lifestyle. Even one unstable person could cause entire pods or groups of pods to be destroyed and mass evacuations, assuming evacuation is feasible. Limited versions of these experiments have occurred on earth with sub-optimal results. There are also some long term low-gravity induced health issues that will have to be addressed and that is work-in-progress.

Here [1] was some recent discussion on this as well.

I suspect that initially there will be teams of robots belonging to different governments and maybe a small handful of astronaut engineers managing them locally with bigger teams back here on earth. I envision robot-vs-robot sabotage leading to problems here on earth. The same may occur with asteroid mining despite there being vast numbers of asteroids to mine. At some point there will probably be more space-soldiers and defensive equipment than engineers.
The folks that wrote the fictional series Star Trek had the optimistic view that humans would clash in a major world war in 2024 and then all get along swimmingly afterwards. I do not share their optimism but then my view would have entirely changed the Star Trek series into a different kind of show.

To really answer your question I think we would have to fully understand how the land in Antarctica is managed and how we ended up with people agreeing to share pieces of land. [2]

More likely that part of the fun of sharing Wordle was it was not prompting a huge media company, as soon as NYT bought it, my guess is people were less likely to share it, especially other news organizations.

I was honestly surprised to see it had declined, since Wordle still shows up in top ten Google trends on almost a daily basis.
I really like Ivy as a simple, friendly introduction to APL. There is a surprising lack of APL-derived languages that use words to name things -- most stick with the original symbols; J and friends choose equally-cryptic symbols composed of ASCII characters.

Earlier this year I decided to solve AoC 2021 in Ivy, then watch Russ Cox's videos to see how he did it and use that to learn something about array programming -- a topic I knew absolutely nothing about going into this.

Unfortunately, Ivy really is, as Rob Pike says, a plaything. It is buggy -- if you ever write a function that returns a vector or a higher-rank array, you are entering bizarre undefined behavior territory. The array-language equivalent of "concat_map" or "flat_map" or "mapcat" or whatever you want to call it just produces garbage values, which is very confusing when you're learning about array programming for the first time ("Wait, this vector says its length is 25, but it contains 50 elements...?" or "The transpose of this array is just the first column repeated over and over??").

Beyond that, a very cool thing about array languages is that, you know, functions can implicitly act on entire arrays. You can multiple a vector by 2 and it will know to multiply every element in the vector by 2, because multiplication is defined for scalars.

But in Ivy, this is only true for the built-in functions. There is no way to write user-defined functions that have this implicit act-on-every-element behavior. Which is basically the looping primitive in array languages -- so to do anything nontrivial, you have to write it out with explicit recursion (still with the caveat that your functions can only return scalars, or you enter undefined behavior town) or rewrite your operations as binary operations with an ignored right-hand side and use "fold" to "map" them. It's bad.

The latter is crippling enough that Russ Cox eventually forks Ivy to add support for it, but it is not currently part of the language. https://github.com/robpike/ivy/pull/83

Anyway that's a long comment to say: Ivy is a good, friendly introduction to APL syntax (stranding, ambivalent functions, precedence, etc) and some array language concepts, but it is far more of a calculator than a programming language.

But it's a good arbitrary-precision calculator! And if you're still interested in trying it, maybe check out this thing I made. It's an... Ivy programming environment?... that lets you run Ivy scripts and see the results inline. (Ivy's repl is... very primitive, and has to be wrapped by something like readline. Russ Cox uses 9term to get around this; self-modifying programs are my preferred approach.)

https://github.com/ianthehenry/privy

My frustration with Ivy led me to look into other array languages, trying to find one that 1) used English words instead of cryptic symbols and 2) worked. And I really couldn't find any! Someone should do something about that. :)
A few years ago my mom was almost dying. Now she’s healthy and energetic.

The things that I’ve noticed made the biggest visible difference:

- Going to the doctors to take care of any diseases that supplements can’t fix.

- Daily exercise at home.

- Weekly physical therapy
(this helps a lot with helping her be social and interact with others).

- Staying at a good weight.

- Having a hobby that gets her outside and active.

- Sleep.
This could be so, but wouldn't a better solution be to prerender popular pages or cache generated HTML (a la memcached etc)? (Having said that I have no idea how modern web apps work, nor what technology stack github is using.)
Pretty sure that although on my system I have 2.6.8-4, it will work with a lesser version such as 2.5.8_3 as on Void. I am using mcrypt because it was simple to implement the user password feature. I am not too sure about openssl as all I am doing is encrypting a file which is stored locally.

You don’t have an understanding of taxes and immigration law which is why you are advocating for things that you don’t even understand. This is a perfect example of Dunning-Kruger. You should just delete your comments.

Like I said, professional athletes have to pay taxes every day that they pay a game in a state/country. That means even if a professional athlete flies in for a game, and fly out the same day, they still have to pay taxes for the one day they were physically there.

Shakira is facing tax evasion changes and jail time because of a dispute as to where she was living.

You said “it’s nobody’s business where you sleep” which is patently false. Like I said, you are advocating tax evasion by not following the tax rules of every country where you sleep at night.
For me it was the coffee. I had to quit. I was surprised how hard it was! Currently I'm at 1 tablespoon (I think 100mg) mixed in decaf with my french press. In addition to that my doctor suggested Ashwagandha and Holy Basil. I also use a weighted blanket. I'm a fan of a big pillow under my legs. Regular sleep schedule. Elon Musk suggested tilting your bed and not eating 4 hours before going to bed, that might help as well.

But I'm 90% sure cutting the caffine was the magic bullet.
Yeah, online communities reflexively "other" anyone who does not agree with their increasingly robust (aka fascist) political dogma, given that that sort of thing seems to be inescapably creeping into everything

How many times have I walked by a table in a cafe to overhear someone complaining that it's impossible to be taken seriously unless you adopt extremeist left or right schools of thought?

How many times have I witnessed adherents dismissing moderates or centrists? Accusing them of helping the "enemy"?
What about people who think for themselves and have concluded something out of the mainstream? Throwing in some other unrelated political cause and accusing anyone who doesn't agree to be wrong?

It's disgusting, and those communities should be ashamed of themselves

I'm assuming, of course, that GP is a decent person and independent thinker, as those types tend to get railroaded in this glorious new dawn of political groupthink
You provide a memory allocation interface either way: it may be a special function per type, it may be a generic allocator.
It’s worth having some form of takeaway from a book, even if it’s just one profound paragraph that resonated with you, and the rest can be filtered out. I mostly read self help, and have managed to boil some books down to a little kernel of truth that I use daily to help me navigate life. Holding a whole book in your head can be done.

Depending on the type and volume of music it can be annoying to your audience if that includes people who are hard of hearing or for whom English isn't their native language, even more so if the presenter isn't a native English-speaker themself and has a strong accent.
Wow, that's all pretty damning evidence, even if circumstantial. And his testimony that he was in all of the other videos, just not the one where he kills someone is pretty flimsy. If I was on a jury, I would vote to convict. But it's unlikely this man will ever face consequences.
Is the precise reason there are not solar canopies everywhre because the cost of panels is not competitive with the value of the power they yield?

Something seems economically broken in the solar business. It should be an arbitrage that so many people pile into that panel prices plummet as fast as compute processing and RAM has. Economically, Moore's law should also apply to solar panels, but the R&D isn't economical either.

Sure, the hard problem isn't collection but transmission and storage, but again, what is the R&D bottleneck? We could say the subsidies on fossil fuels means the competitiveness of solar is suppressed, but maybe we need some breakaway regions that make it viable, like a hundred solar Las Vegas'es that run on cryptocurrency chips signed by solar power producers, and govts can tolerate our autonomy in exchange for taking the risk on tech to create newly sustainable economies.

If you really want solar power, legalize gambling with a provably solar powered cryptocurrency. I could build the first low powered rig in an afternoon, as it would be a panel hookup, a raspi, and the secret sauce would be the HSM that signed the tokens it produced. If someone stole the keys, you just fork and grandfather tokens produced before the compromise. If someone swapped their panel for grid power instead of solar to produce them, the sun is the ultimate open random number generator and by encoding bursts from it into the token, you could see whether a miner was producing consistently based on volume relative to the random stream from the sun.

I don't think it's the tech that is the problem, there's something fishy about the economics, as these are solvable problems.
It feels a bit wrong to frame many things from the point of view of ethnicity, although that definitely has it's place too.

If you look at these groups, you should see that many immigrants from Asia were already well off enough to immigrate, so in some sense mid-to-upper class of their societies.

This is not by far the case for native Americans and African Americans, who have been oppressed for generations in America.

To view things from the perspective of race just seems to miss a lot of essential substance.
People ask me why I buy some many books when obviously I haven't read them all - I usually ask them if they wear all their clothes all the time.

I think it is is perfectly fine not to finish a book. Or read a few chapters to see if you like it. Or skip the introductions or the notes. Or even just read the notes (I have an awesome translation of the Odyssey - the notes are more enjoyable than the poem!). I usually don't finish long book series.

I have books that I've collected for another time where I would enjoy them. Perhaps a vacation or sick leave.

Point is, there are many ways to enjoy books, and we should feel more open about it and less judgemental of the way others enjoy them.
Yeah, he went across different types (they’re all roughly “simulators” but most games are) so it doesn’t have the same “this developer makes the same game over and over”.
I have noticed this too. Midjourney seems to have poorer quality and can't really do face but is vastly more "creative".

I wonder if there is a trade off between a larger data set so more accurate and how creative it can be.
No sync you
Sounds wise to me; in a couple years your dreams may well be different. Unless the place you're in really sucks stay there a bit longer, do the school and then go buy or build you a fantasy castle or whatever.

You might put polish on the home you're in now if you're looking to invest effort that way. Granite countertops are so last decade: How much more valuable would it be if it had a moat?
As with most idioms, most of the people who reference it have no clue what the origin of the expression is. Knowing the etymology of something is not a requirement for understanding what it means.
> The last one is when you read the book, then think about it, then read it again, then read about it, then keep reading it over and over for the rest of your life.

Agree. Would love to see examples from people of books that fall in this category. I assume it is a short list for most people.

It is, somewhat. The current generation of software and hardware was pushed to its limits by the smartest AI/ML engineers in the world and the best we got is Tesla FSD which is in no way ready to replace taxis and still needs someone at the wheel at all times.

100% self driving taxis for drunk night crawlers are not on the horizon anymore.
Fair point. I mention the free tiers because I found it to be really low friction to start building without worrying about the pricing of every little service and platform (I did make sure the paid tiers weren't going to be a huge issue or surprise once I was ready to graduate). I'm willing to invest a bit in side projects once they get to a certain point of maturity and have the potential to maybe pay for themselves someday, so at this point I'm paying for the domain, Vercel, Supabase, and the Streamline icons I use.
