What I’ve found useful is to dig until we understand why we disagree. Assuming the other person reasoned their self into a reasonable position, then if we have different answers then we probably came from different starting points.

Usually we can work backwards and discover that we have different starting assumptions or work forwards and discover that we have different goals. Those pieces tend to be more ambiguous and much easier to “agree to disagree”. And it’s why both people can be 100% that they are correct - because in each of their frames of reference they are.

Yes, especially somewhat later in the life of the 8088, most applications would demand quite a bit of memory, and the 640k configuration became standard for the later 5160s and most clones.
So I wouldn't be surprised if 5150 owners also upgraded the memory on their machines.
The AST Six Pak Plus card was quite a popular upgrade.
It could add up to 384k, so if you had 256k on board (fully loaded later model 5150), there's your 640k.

If you were unlucky enough to have an early model 5150, the board could only take 64k. That limit was however because 4116 memory chips of 16kbit capacity were used. The board could be modified to take the later 4164 chips of 64kbit capacity, in which case it would take 256k.
Alternatively, you could use two memory expansion cards to bring the memory up from 64k onboard to 640k total. Although I doubt many people would use such a contraption in practice.

Early model 5150s also required a BIOS upgrade, as a bug would prevent the BIOS from detecting more than 544k of installed memory.

So in theory it is possible to have a 5150 with 640k, and no doubt such machines exist in the wild. But it's probably far more common to find a 5155 or 5160 with 640k. So just like with 8088 MPH I guess that's the 'practical' target of the demo.

I think the point of the article is to express the ways in which it can feel like those on the spectrum are unwilling to admit they were wrong when it might not be what is happening by providing the perspective of the neurodivergent.

I don't think an article providing a couple examples of how one individual was willing to admit they were wrong is providing much in terms of discussion or new perspectives. "See, I can admit I'm wrong!" would be a pretty shallow way of addressing what could often be a misunderstanding. Instead, the post is attempting to offer some insight into the different opinions people might have about interactions with an autistic and explanations for what is going on behind the scenes.

Oh, you were focusing on the explicit notion of virtualizing IPs. I thought you were pointing out that Kubernetes itself is not the one generating the IPs, since it's the CNIs that do so, which are not built-in...

Either way, we are in agreement I believe. Kubernetes mandates for CNIs that they must allocate unique IPs, but they do so through a variety of mechanisms, sometimes even using external infrastructure.
Thank you. I thought I remembered that from elsewhere, and was a little surprised to see the oblique reference to one of the many similar writings from the time.

Because much of the inflation, especially that which hurt consumers most, was transient. That is clearly shown by how gas prices are dropping faster than ever before.
Apparently it makes very accurate predictions though, so it's not just a matter of ad hoc tweaking some law to fit reality... It does seem to capture some regularity/mechanics of nature.
Yeah, $16-$20 is not huge. % wise sure but natural gas in the US is insanely cheap.

$60 for a month of heat for a 1500 sqft home is insanely cheap. If you had oil you'd be looking at north of $200.
I just can't wrap my head around how non-inverse-square-laws are supposed to work for forces. Why doesn't this (and MOND) violate a fundamental law? I thought the point of inverse square laws was that we have a point source, area increases with r^2, energy is radiated symmetrically in space, and thus energy at any given point has to drop off with 1/r^2 in order for total energy to remain constant. So how is a non inverse square law supposed to work? How can we not be violating something fundamental like conservation of energy, number of dimensions in space, spherical symmetry, causality, etc.?
There may be small, sub-linear improvements. But the general thesis seems roughly correct.
> but there seems to be no upper definite upper limit to human intelligence

I assure you this does not seem to be the case.

There is an observed, and inexact, upper limit on human intelligence, just as there is with human height, and for broadly similar reasons: gravity, in the case of height, and for intelligence some much more hand-wavey limit to the amount of neurons and dendritic links a human body can construct inside a skull which has to fit through hips which are capable of bipedal motion.

(Some of you are curious, and yes, there is a real correlation between skull volume and measured intelligence, but let's not bust out the calipers because it's a bad proxy for something we can measure more accurately with tests).

Hence the IQ curve is, in fact, Gaussian, just as human height is, despite the fact that you can't be shorter than a mushroom, and the Empire State Building is an existence proof of very tall things.

When I was a Boy Scout we would compete on knot tying speed. My favorite was two people take opposite ends of a rope and tie a bowline around your waist. The first one done would then run, and try to capture their opponent's wrist in the loop mid-tie.
Unfortunately yes. A car or even a truck is standalone and its frame only has to account for the forces of itself moving and crash absorbance, whereas a railway car has to be able to withstand the pull and push forces of dozens of cars - the most basic train has one locomotive at the front and each car must be capable of transferring the entire pull force that the first one behind the locomotive gets, which is for European railways usually anything between 200 to 700 (MTAB IORE) kN.

And the only way to achieve that capability is lots and lots of very thick steel.
With enough kinetic energy, you don't need to hit the starter position for the engine to restart. You're effectively push starting it at that point. I've done this on a chevy V8 in neutral/park. The engine takes long enough to spin down that if you apply the power to the distributor ( putting the key to "run" ) before it hits Zero rpm ( actual, not measured ) it'll restart because you still have fuel and compression.
More complicated. Inflation expectations, supply chain fixes, fiscal policy, data/reporting lag, etc all play in too. If it's declining, let it decline. Fed can only influence, not dictate, inflation.
I've occasionally toyed with the thought that political duty should be managed in a similar manner as jury duty.

(One of) The problems with political representatives is that they _want_ to be politicians. Either as a means to an end, or as a mechanism to better serve themselves or others like them. On more rare occasions you find the occasional altruist.

Since there's a selection bias going on, how can the current crop act as representatives of their populace when they aren't _like_ those they claim to represent?

The issue is that the American people are so far gone, and even more so back in the day, that allowing to process to work results in the persecution of people. This has been proven time and time again.

The process as we imagine it simply can't work under these conditions. The people are too deranged, and like misbehaving children, need to be contained.
Not autistic at all, just not actuated by submission. I have compassion for my socially awkward brethren, but sometimes we just need a push. If most self-diagnosed "on the spectrum" people would self-accept instead, it would reduce their neuroticism and agreeableness, and most of their social issues would disappear. The anxiety comes from the double bind of having compromised ourselves into relationships where we can't maintain the dissonance between the agreeable way of relating with "good behaviour" to others that we have structured our personal relationships around - and the self we have diverted and often hidden thinking that's what we needed to do to have healthy relationships and jobs. Chances are they (we) lack personal boundaries because our ability to develop and set them was hampered by early life experiences and parents with poor personal boundaries. If you learned get things by "being good," your idea of "good" may be a transaction, where you expect others to give you things because you are good, and the compromises you make to do it pile up as resentment and soul debt. When you don't have tools to navigate the world without pretending to be "good," (whatever that means), we don't even know we're misrepresenting anymore. Internet pop psychology, but carrying around these self-diagnoses like talismans to ward off disapproval and maintain our perfectionism needs to stop. Be imperfect and accept that you are going suck at anything you haven't actively practiced with intention, particularly something like self acceptance. Anything that looks easy is almost always the effect of a huge amount of invisible work, and by starting with respect for that, it's possible to maybe walk back these protective self-diagnoses and use the same decision power to self-identify as responsible for your own feelings, and self-accept as having a quite complex experience where the journey isn't to mitigate it, but to really fully explore it. It goes so fast. Don't forget to enjoy it.

If you clean a figure 8 really well, it's just as easy to untie after a whip as a bowline (okay, maybe not just as easy, but very close), and much much more universal for your partner to inspect.

The process I follow to ensure a clean knot every time:

1. Tie your figure 8, with the tail the same size every time (use your body as a ruler, testing a few lengths to get the perfect size)

2. Pass the tail up through your hard points so the knot is only a few inches from the bottom hard point.

3. Orient your knot so the tail is coming out of the bottom right side

4. This is the most important step! Instead of passing the tail through the inside of the knot when starting the followthrough, pass it in between the tail strand and the bottom right of the knot.

5. Follow through as normal. It should come out almost clean (eg no need to flip strands over each other)

6. For all 4 combos of top and bottom strand, yank them to make the knot very tight. The tighter and cleaner it is, the easier to untie after a whip.

7. If you do this all, the load strand will be on top, so no difficult flipped strands after a whip!

This is just my process, what's most important is doing something that works for you and that you can get right every time.

It wouldn't be transient though...it's been 1.5 years and prices aren't going down, they are just rising at a slower pace. I don't view that as "transitory." The transitory camp thought it would be a few months, it's been almost 2 years of relentless price hikes.

The President is not meant to be a ruler. They are the executive, their job is to enact federal policies and enforce laws written by Congress. Over the past several decades Congress has abrogated their responsibilities which has increased the workload of the executive. But even with that increased power the President is not a ruler an is nominally subject to the same laws as anyone else.
Do we progressively move the line backwards from 'actual crime' towards 'incitement to commit crime' towards 'this type of opinion leads to incitement to commit crime' towards 'this kind of upbringing breeds criminals'.

As you say, this appears to be driven by 'the people want...' and therein lies the conundrum.

Enacting something resembling what the people want doesn't result in something the people want when they happen to accidentally step in it.

Beyond a reasonable doubt does not mean beyond any hypothetical, fanciful, or possible doubt.

To me it is mostly that life is boring. At some point you have seen everything interesting and anything you see hence are just fitting into the same basic patterns. Discussions, tv shows, books etc. Living is still better than not living, but every time you experience something new the things left to experience becomes smaller. A few romance movies and you have seen all of them, a few action movies etc, or even psychology papers or math papers etc.

You haven't seen all of them, but the more you see the less value you get from seeing another. So we can conclude that living for an eternity wouldn't be particularly more interesting than living for 100 years, as 100 years is more than enough to see many things in each category. You might not become a world expert in everything, but experiencing the things worth experiencing in the categories doesn't take particularly long to do and after that life is just padding.

The main reason to live now is that there are new interesting things coming out still, since computers are still young. That adds new things over the years. But interesting progress isn't really the norm, it isn't like physics or math has gotten any more interesting over my lifetime and I expect computers to get there before I die and then there isn't much left.

Edit: For example, everything we produce today is based on the same math and physics my grandfather learned in college. There has been no practical progress since then there. Main thing since is new tools enabled by computers that are more precise or automate things, that is interesting but the discoveries enabled by more automation/precise tools will run out at some point.

Overall, I bet adding more people to the house would actually make the political process much worse. If you actually cared about this, getting a better census estimate would be the first step since that's currently helping democrats quite a bit.
> unless you are streaming, there is absolutely no reason to use OBS.

Not true in my experience. Simplescreenrecorder was not capable of recording (without streaming) full screen opengl games with sound at acceptable quality last time I tried it, OBS is the only thing I've found that will do this apart from hardware based recorders. To be fair, the last time I tried simplescreenrecorder was several years ago, perhaps it has improved in the meantime.

It is interesting, at best, aggravating mostly, that folks are still adamant that we can apply the heuristics of the past to conditions in the present. Evidence suggests we cannot. Governments, government bodies and other vested interests around the globe are covertly managing (taking liberties with the "numbers"?) the downward spiral in order to maintain some semblance of control and not have everything derail too quickly or catastrophically [1]. This includes but not limited to all the movement on digital currencies and ID's, and the dreams of the WEF and associated minions. The climate crisis and the emerging reality that we can no longer live on a finite planet with goals of infinite growth [2] will force discontinuities and catastrophes that are hard to fully imagine, never mind prepare for. There is solid evidence that fossil fuel availability - the cheap to extract kind - is in steady decline now [3], so excitement over falling pump prices is misplaced. The economy is energy and energy is the economy and all of the impacts of our economic and cultural decline have yet to reveal and play themselves out.

[1] In economics there is a proposition known as Dornbusch’s Law that states: Crises take longer to arrive than you can imagine, but when they do come, they happen faster than you can possibly imagine.

Exactly. Immutability has many virtues; this is the wrong direction.
As others have pointed out, the stated goal is 2%. Keep in mind, however, that the Fed's founding mandate is to balance price stability with unemployment. The mandate takes priority over their stated inflation target, so don't be too surprised if the Fed pivots strategy sooner depending on how the labor market evolves.

You should also keep in mind that inflation trends tend to lag behind monetary policy, so the Fed will actually pivot strategies ~6-12 months prior to when the inflation rate is projected to return to 2%. This means that the actual rate we land at will be a lot more imprecise -- potentially as high as 4% or as low as 1% -- while policy gets dialed in. The Fed has historically been fine with a sine-wave pattern of this nature so long as it averages out to 2% over time (there will also probably be some magical thinking in underweighing the past 12 months of extraordinary inflation for the purposes of such averages).

One last thing: the Fed typically uses the core PCE for measuring inflation, which excludes food and energy prices, since they're prone to price shocks. The year-over-year core PCE was 4.8% for the month of July. They'll probably choose to overshoot this measure, however, since inflation sentiment over the CPI is highly negative.

Puppeteer can do both Chrome & Firefox, you're right. I use both for a scraping project I do.
Here in the UK the problem is substantially a structural one. First-past-the-post elections and the lack of a legislative revising chamber with a democratic mandate result in governments having very little restraint on their powers. This tends to result in bad laws, which often pander to the worst instincts of the governing party's membership (see: "something must be done"). Because we have no written constitution, and because it has recently become apparent that the precedent-based system that we have instead is much more bendable than was previously thought (see: brexit), governments can pretty much do what they want. And they do. And this kind of "strong government" is actually quite popular with some people, particularly on the right at present.

I don't know about Canada or Australia, but at the national level I believe their systems are at least partly patterned on the one they inherited from the UK.
The numbers are manipulated by adjustments like substitutions and hedonics.
Speaking as someone not totally young, and (hopefully) not totally un-smart, I think its true one mellows out with age, also you can "be the change you want to see".

‘Save money so you don’t retire eating cat food’ - This statement presumes my generation will ever be able to retire. In Sydney, houses are so expensive my whole generation will be practically forced to rent for life, there’s no retiring when your rent is doubled the entire aged pension.
