"going for a run when … you feel sick and tired borders on dangerous advice."

While I don't disagree with this I find it interesting how people are so against working out while sick whereas the startup/hustle crowd are all about pushing through it working 24/7/365 even when you're sick. Hustle hustle hustle and all that.

Even outside of the startup hustle crowd many people still force themselves into work when they're feeling sick and tired. I would think forcing yourself to do a 8 hour day in the office plus a commute is more stress to the body then a short exercise routine. Nobody is seriously saying go and run a 5k when you feel like shit but some I often find when I feel under the weather doing some stretches and body weight exercises helps with aches and pains.

I think people are reading the original post a little too literally. I did not read it as drop and do 100 push ups right now! But to start by doing even just one press up and commit to doing that daily until you can do 100 push ups. 100 being any arbitrary number, 50 or 30 works just as well. The point is having a goal and maintaining daily improvement towards it.

As an independent founder, I've always had a hard time reaching potential customers.

And I found a way to solve this problem. Twitter custom audience lists.

I started 100+ Twitter ads.
No spending waste. 90% right targeting. 30%+ engagement and conversions received.
And we've made a side project for other founders to use.

List people on Twitter by title and interests they wrote in their profile bio. Show ads to the handles you collect at low costs with the custom audience list feature.

Your feedback is loved.
Play with the tool. Feel free to let us know how you can use it and your opinion.
Studying CS a while ago, we had a very practical statistics and now I'm struggling to understand more theoretical proof-based papers like this one. Is there a good statistics/probability book out there to brush up on my statistics and understand papers like this better?
> So this is only for the installer, right?

According to the Debian wiki description of this option[1]: "Where non-free firmware is found to be necessary, the target system will also be configured to use the non-free-firmware component by default in the apt sources.list file."

> The software that is not needed for basic functionality will not be installed permanently, right?

I'm not sure I understand you right. Unless the software is needed, the installer won't load it. And I'm not sure what you mean by "basic functionality" here, but the way I read the Debian pages it's about loading everything needed for the hardware to be fully-operational (or as close to it as is possible).

Being a toxic toss-pot should very much be a reason to be fired. Toxic people are notoriously destructive to the work environment, almost always in a greater degree to what they add -- even if they are top performers. Removing them can result in a more productive/creative team who can now thrive in their absence.
A trip is more than a series of visual disturbances. It's an emotional rollercoaster. Your perception of yourself and your surroundings changes drastically and you have many insights that you perceive as very significant. This can help take your attention away from irrelevant things and direct it to more meaningful things in your normal life.

And even the hallucinations can show you that we construct our realities in every instant of our lives. You know this already of course but knowing and experiencing are two different things.

I only ever see it with people in the humanities. In science... weird - more than weird, in general seeing someone who uses the Dr. title is a good indication of "you're going to read the worst shit ever hidden under an insufferable amount of vague verbiage".

To give another data point: in France I remember the university having to ask the local profs. to put their titles (Dr, Prof, etc) in their mail signature as otherwise students thought that french teachers were much less competent than e.g. teachers from germany who would have three layers of Dr. Eng. prepended

I'm not seeing the immediate value here. If your application is vulnerable to unauthenticated DELETE requests randomly deleting stuff, no amount of application firewalling is going to protect you, because I guarantee that whoever built the original application had no clue what they were doing.

What would it take for you to found a company? You could go big, like pitch a business idea to investors, or turn yourself into a one-man consultancy at an exorbitant hourly rate.

I have a buddy who did the latter. He'll take a boring C# gig for 6 months, amass a pile of savings, and live off of it for a while, while he paints his house and fiddles with IoT projects. It's more risk, but it can buy you more freedom.
Emacs is awesome because it nicely handles every programming language I use.

There was no mention in the article of the LispWorks editor, that was derived from Hemlock. A really nice editor to use when I need the features of the LispWorks IDE, otherwise my favorite is just Emacs configured for LispWorks and SBCL.

For the discussion topic: I am not sure if the LispWorks editor is faster, snappier, etc. than Emacs because it is compiled Common Lisp.
If you move just your eyes, they can only rotate in effectively discontinuous jumps (saccades), during which you are basically blind. This limitation is present no matter how slowly you move your eyes.

However, your eyes are perfectly capable of smooth motion if you stare at a fixed point and move your head or body.

"If self-consciousness is based in bodily awareness, then it is unlikely that a lab-grown “mini-brain” could ever become conscious, as some ethicists have claimed. By the same token, transhumanists’ claim that we will one day gain immortality by uploading our brains to supercomputers will probably always be science fiction."
Crafting Interpreters by Nystrom.

It's great because of how accessible it makes compilers to average programmers, and, as a bonus, it also throws shade at the overly dense compiler textbooks:

"Classic compiler books read like fawning hagiographies of these heroes and their tools. The cover of Compilers: Principles, Techniques, and Tools literally has a dragon labeled “complexity of compiler design” being slain by a knight bearing a sword and shield branded “LALR parser generator” and “syntax directed translation”. They laid it on thick." (chapter 6)

Having read Compilers for a compilers course in college, Crafting Interpreters was a fun read on many levels.
Honestly you’re right there’s gaming specific reasons for the failure, but that itself is symptomatic of Google’s entry and exit of many markets: never really bothering to figure out what the market actually wanted and just hoping that high quality engineering will solve that.

Admittedly this approach has worked once, and extremely successfully: Android. But Google tend to believe that being from Google will make a product more attractive when the exact opposite is true. (For many reasons, including the simple lack of trust that Google will still be in a market in five years time.)

I've yet to see, in decades of Tory rule, much but decline, neglect, and scandal. Tax cuts and service cuts. That's all everyone needs apparently. Unfortunately, labor seems so incompetent at gaining power that it seems almost like a "managed opposition." Maybe I'm being too generous to their electorate as well.

If Stadia's core audience was supposed to be occasional gamers, then that audience didn't exist. Not to the extent Google thought anyway.

That's the nice way of putting it, but yeah, cancelling things people like and/or not providing enough value (if your internet is fast enough) is going to hold a service back too.
Yeas, exactly. Otherwise this shows the real problem with the health sector; it is undervalued, underpaid and thus requires cheap labor with less accrued wealth to maintain its labour force.

There's already clues there as to what sort of angle this might be approached from. The speakers book "Jerks at Work: Toxic Coworkers and What to Do About Them, by Tessa West, 2022." as well as their work and other cited research is listed on the page.

I just started listening, there were segments with the first being 15m. I would say that they're a collection of anecdata stories on the subject.

> Conditions for a crossing were good, it was a fast day in Israel [...] On the other hand, the fact that the attack was launched on Yom Kippur may have helped Israel to more easily marshal reserves from their homes and synagogues because roads and communication lines were largely open, easing the mobilization and transportation of the military

Here[1] you go. I whipped this up last night for my brother and a friend. I just happened to be up late, only know about 4 constellations, and maybe half a dozen stars, saw Mars, distinctively bright red last night, and realized that two other red stars were nearby. Including Mars, there's only about 4 red stars that appear red that can be seen with the naked eye, the other being Antares (which at the time was well below the horizon). This will appear slightly different and the triangle slightly more oblique tonight as Mars continues (mostly due to Earth's changed position) along the ecliptic.

A written version of their (by which I mean Strossen and other's like Haidt involved in FIRE movement) "anti-hate laws helped the Nazis" argument is found here:

https://www.thefire.org/would-censorship-have-stopped-the-ri...

> Considering the Nazi movement’s core ideology, as espoused by Hitler in “Mein Kampf,” rested on an alleged conspiracy between Jews and their sympathizers in government to politically disempower Aryan Germans, it is not surprising that the Nazis were able to spin government censorship into propaganda victories and seeming confirmation of their claims that they were speaking truth to power, and that power was aligned against them.

I don't find it particularly convincing, but it does explain the strategy of complaining about free speech and censorship by "the jews" has a long history of success, with Nazis. Everyone else thinks, "oh these people are Nazis". But Nazis think, "It's a Jewish Conspiracy to silence the truth", because they are Nazis.

Go back to the 90s or maybe early 2000s, and there was definitely this widespread vision of a media hub connected to the TV in the living room as the primary home entertainment device (or even more broadly home control). People weren't necessarily in broad agreement about the nature of such a device but it was certainly a more centralized view of the world than what ultimately has ended up playing out.
The idea of the two hemispheres being independent agents is an underappreciated one. It's so hard to step out of the sense of being unitary selves.

> As far as Signal goes, my main concern there is just how centralized it is.

That's the whole point of end-to-end encryption: you don't have to trust the server if e2ee is done right. Matrix is decentralized, but as this disclosure shows, they have issues with e2ee. Signal is centralized, but I have never, ever heard of a security issue with the Signal protocol.

So yeah... you may have concerns about Signal being centralized (e.g. they have the power to shut it down, and I guess they could ban users), but end-to-end encryption is not one. Actually Signal probably has one of the best e2ee out there.

Not an expert, but I think part of what you’re describing is an illusion. Our brains do a lot of work to trick us into thinking we see everything that we expect to be in our FOV. Blind spots demonstrate this.

For me, when I turn my head, my apparent FOV rotates, while when I move my eyes, it does not. However, when my eyes are looking far right, I can no longer actually detect motion in the far left of my FOV. even though that part of the scene still feels like it’s visible, it isn’t.

Anyway, I think the technology equivalent is just called stabilization. Again, our brains are really good at tricking us into not noticing it happening. But if you could view the “raw feed” from the optic nerves, it wouldn’t look anywhere near as clean as your description suggests.

Google was better if you were searching for something popular, because it showed highly linked-to pages for that query.

Tell me about non guaranteed order of operations in GPU reductions and floating point results changing slightly between two runs. Yes it's useful and you get the goddamn FP32 TFLOPS, but damn it makes testing, validating, qualifying systems harder. And yes, I know one shouldn't rely and test on equality, but not knowing the actual order of FP operations makes numerical analysis of the actual error harder (just take the worst case of every reduction, ugh).

EDIT: and don't get me started on tensor cores and clever tricks to have them do 'fp32-alike' accuracy. Yes, wonderful magic but how do you reason about these new objects without a whole new slew of tools.
> So if a nuclear war begins nukes will only be deployed inside EU countries, that will probably lead a NATO disband

I really wonder why you'd possibly think that. NATO dwindles when it seems unnecessary, but as we've already seen, nothing unites NATO like a common enemy does.

Keep in mind that NATO has spent its entire existence preparing for a possible war with Russia. The moment Russia starts throwing nukes, it will get nuked by NATO. It's the very thing the NATO nuclear doctrine is designed around: retaliation if Russia ever initiates a nuclear war.

I’ve been aggressively trying to get OpenWRT to ship the images with WiFi on by default. At this point 99.99% of people are not leaving their network unsecured, and if for some reason you have to reset the router it becomes a plastic brick unless you have an Ethernet cable and an USB-to-ethernet adapter nearby.

Even suggestions of either creating a landing page that forces the user to set up security before allowing internet connectivity, or basing the WiFi password on the serial number (that is also on the back of any router) falls on deaf ears.
