Agreed. Bobby Fisher got there in less than 10 years.

https://problogservice.com/2012/03/15/what-malcolm-gladwell-...

The problem is, Gladwell never said you needed 10,000 hours to be an expert, you need 10,000 hours to be a phenom. To be so freakishly awesome, to be such a standout among your peers, that sometimes your first name is enough to tell people who you are: Peyton. Tiger. Venus. Kobe. Oprah.

But in the meantime, here’s what Malcolm Gladwell said about the 10,000 hour rule and being an outlier:

“In fact, by the age of twenty, the elite performers (violinists) had each totaled ten thousand hours of practice.” — p. 38

“The emerging picture from such studies is that ten thousand hours of practice is required to achieve the level of mastery associated with being a world-class expert—in anything,” writes the neurologist Daniel Levitin. — p. 40

“To become a chess grandmaster also seems to take about ten years. (Only the legendary Bobby Fisher got to that elite level in less than that amount of time: it took him nine years.) And what’s ten years? Well, it’s roughly how long it takes to put in ten thousand hours of hard practice. Ten thousand hours is the magic number of greatness.” — p. 41
Stupid people like the first person mentioned in the article, who apparently doesn't live in an HOA and was asked by a town official to stop hanging laundry?
If it is Odesa today than it is Warsaw tomorrow and Berlin the day after that. If Putin proves that nuclear blackmail works, there will be no way to control nuclear proliferation and every dictator in a fourth world country will seek them out because they know they'll be able to get away with anything.
Is there a (semi-) official docker image for this new beta? Would love to test it.
The property line thing: not so much. My neighbor hires out the working of his field. The gate into both fields in in common, but it entirely on my property.

The contractor doesn't know this, so plants to the center of the gate. Which is 3 or 4 rows of corn on my field.

Property lines are problematic everywhere.
Depends on what camera you're referring to. Many modern CMOS cameras can basically see in the dark.
The OP's attitude is one that can't be logically argued against as it's not a reasonable position. They have no real reason to be against hanging laundry other then "I don't like it" and so will come up with BS reasons to obscure that fact.
You mean the smallest feature size. That used to be the case until Samsung start playing around with the number a little bit more for marketing, and the whole market force TSMC to follow, and after a few cycles we left with nothing but a name with numbers.

You could probably still find some useless metric that fit the narrative. But that is beside the point.
Isn't there consensus that the industrial sector's carbon footprint is multitudes greater than residential so even a net-0 residential would barely put a dent in reducing carbon impact?
You want a crazy stat? US uses more energy just for its AC usage, than the entire continent of Africa uses for literally everything combined together.
>There is a legal consensus that the fact that a person may deactivate or go around a TPM does not mean that the technology fails to offer ‘effective control’ because so holding would render the DCMA ‘nonsensical,”

This position is absurd. "We have to rule this way or else the DMCA wouldn't apply to YouTube when it clearly does."

Heat removal is basically a 2D problem. A 3D pipe has a 2D cross section in which fluid can transport heat. Right now we are mostly limited by heat removal, so adding more height to the chip doesn't help anything with the heat. Also, the chips are already many layers thick and each layer means processing steps which means time and money.

If you look into flash memory which aren't limited by heat, they have dozens of functional layers already and then we also stack those silicon wafers.
Does she not have a backyard, preferably with a privacy fence? Is the front yard her only choice?
I feel this quote badly aged. Nowadays, the choice isn't really binary anymore, there's so much between marrying or not. I never married but had two long, solid relationships so far. Which I'm quite happy with.

I do note that you didn't actually say what your choice was, and whether you regret it.
I hang my clothes to dry inside as I live in a small appartement in the city. It goes quite quickly even you spun normally. Tumble drying and fast spinning destroy clothes and it’s a big no with wool. Is it unusual in the US?

Then again, if I had the space, I would definitely dry them outside. Nothing beats the smell of clothes hung outside in the sun.
And to continue the Grace Hopper example... Remember that she transitioned to computing from being a Mathematics professor at Yale, so she was able to leverage her previous training into the new career.

Try and do the same if you can. Leverage what skills you've already gained to switch into a career where they are a big advantage. Then you are starting nearer to those already in the field, not the beginning.

Probably worse. Gas will always have a carbon footprint. While electricity is getting greener every day!
Just do it. I'm planning to switch jobs from Software Engineer to General Contractor, just working on saving up capital for heavy equipment and materials. I took a great training course and now just have to pass the licensing exam. If your passion changes, just change fields, life is short.
it depends on the fabric materials used. not all of them are prone to degradation from dryer heat. i didn't notice it until my wife told me about it so now i make an effort to dry my nicer clothes on a stand rather than in the dryer.

Even so, it does not explain why one method of heating the air would feel different than another, unless there is something physically different in their effects.

Radiant heat feels somewhat different than warm air, but if radiant heat from the radiators of a steam or water system is significant, would that not make them feel dryer? Our house has water radiators, and I do not notice the radiant heat from them.

I believe Retric's explanation is the correct one, given that human activity tends to increase the absolute humidity of interior air.

Not very niche.
SMIC 7nm size is actually 7nm in TSMC terms, or Intel 7 / original Intel 10nm. Which didn't use EUV at all.

I've noticed that you haven't actually delineated why you think this sort of thing is bad. Could you elaborate please? Not trolling I sincerely want to know
Doing full P2P just isn't there yet. It makes total sense but without talking about some web3 Blockchain, it's hard to get everyone to run a distributed database, identity server, etc without it being some single binary.
Use a mining rig as the heating element in a dryer and you'll get the benefits of both. This may be tongue in cheek but I do actually use the waste heat from our server and storage array to:

- dry produce - fruits, mushrooms etc.

- partially heat the second floor. The house is well-insulated so this relatively small amount of heat - the whole rig pulls around 300W - is often enough to keep the temperature above 15°C which is enough for the use we make of it.
There's a fully fleshed out theory of how specific synchronizing oscillations, resulting in "resonance" generate conscious experiences, including the kind of memories discussed here.

Before you dismiss this as another kooky consciousness theory, please let me add that this the only mechanistically precise one out there. All others are black-box models (yes, a bold claim!)

Sadly, it is completely ignored within neuroscience even if its "founder", Stephen Grossberg, is generally recognized as one of the pioneers of computational neuroscience and responsible for many now-commonplace ideas.

(plug) We've even written a book that, among other things, offers a gentle introduction to this work https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/58085266-journey-of-the-...

And for anyone in AI/neuroscience I’d really, really recommend reading Grossberg’s Magnum Opus with an open mind: https://www.amazon.com/Conscious-Mind-Resonant-Brain-Makes/d...

This article may be a good place to start, even if the terminology takes a little getting used to: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S089360801...

Coming back to the question of consciousness, I’d wager that we are going to have to ask the question of artificial consciousness very seriously as AI models continue to get better at a rapid pace (no, they are not conscious yet). You might find this worth reading: https://saigaddam.medium.com/understanding-consciousness-is-...
I would argue that the speedup is critical for being practically useful.

In terms of use cases: education, testing, documentation, distribution of applications, safe execution of legacy applications... and there are surely many others
Look, I like open source federated ecosystems like Mastodon, but claiming Twitter or Facebook will be shut down any time soon is laughable.

I'm not sure I could reliably predict whether Twitter or Mastodon will live longer.

I've experimented a lot with different isomorphic tunings on the guitar - that is where each string is in the same interval. The obvious one to try is perfect 4ths, E A D G C F. This one is great because the same shape works everywhere, drop 2 chords for instance have three sets of shapes you need to learn on standard guitar but only one on perfect 4ths. However, I hate giving up the open B and E strings. You can fix this by adding an extra fret on the highest two strings (or just using a capo on the lowest 4 strings) [1].

My favorite isomorphic tuning though is minor thirds tuning, where each fret becomes a diminished chord. This allows you to explore Barry Harris' harmonic concepts really easily, which describes major and minor 4 note chords as combinations of two diminished chords. I made a video showing how this works. [2]

I’m not calling anything a “cesspool” I’m just addressing the issue of “logical consistency.” The GOP comprises Midwestern church moms and oil tycoons. Democrats include social justice activists and Silicon Valley billionaires. The fact that the policies emerging from these coalitions often aren’t logically consistent is no surprise.
Steam radiators absolutely dry out the air.
I agree there should be more explicit support here, but can this not be "solved" with backup codes? One or more could be given to a trusted person – a family member, a friend, or even a trusted librarian – or a backup code could be remembered.

The tough issue here is that these access edge cases look a lot like malicious use. The aren't but authenticating someone who has no device or ID or really much else to authenticate themselves is a Hard Problem. Passwords also aren't the solution here, the industry is moving away from them precisely because they provide poor authentication, particularly for vulnerable people.

That is definitely an issue that is out there. Sadly cheap builders try and get away with a single return per floor in a house which is simply not enough. My point is mostly that forced air versus hydronic isn't what causes a difference in dryness of air. It largely comes down to the quality of the install of each and the tightness of the home. Hydronic is typically more expensive and tends to be found it better built homes. My house is an exception to that rule though, I am still working on sealing up air leaks from where all the pipes ran for our baseboard heat.
But when you look through the detail photos in the post the Honor phone is miles ahead in every category. I don't know how the overall rating ended up so close, maybe the video quality makes the difference.
Just turn off 2FA
In one of the later posts, the OP writes that the homeless will lose any physical thing after N weeks. So what kind of 2FA would be homeless-proof? I don't see a solution.

Also, fully acknowledging Google and other bigtechs 2FA is far from ideal:

The other thing is, we want at the same time Gmail to be unhackable against best hackers and state sponsored adversaries for the billions of users, including high profile dissidents, journalists, and senators who will inevitably have accounts; and at the same time to homeless people who can't keep any physical thing. It's kinda difficult to meet those conflicting requirements well at the same time.

Maybe the solution should be to have some basic free state-paid email provider for those people. They are not forced to use Gmail specifically (albeit the number of non-sucking and free email providers is probably close to zero).
This is nice. I've been using micro for years, but I think I'll give tilde a shot. I love the msdos aesthetic.
And the worst thing is that if execs etc. think that they can sit back down and breathe easy because they have a path towards even more infinite money in their chip business now that Moore's law isn't constraining that anymore, real R&D investments into actual advancements might not get the same attraction anymore...

>>What if someone decides they should park their car on the front lawn since the boat and camper take up the driveway? Or just set a couch up on the front lawn because I like to have a nap there?

Wait, isn't America meant to be land of the free? Is it their front lawn, or is it not? I live in a much less "free" country according to any American, and yet neither thing would be a problem. It's your front lawn, want to a park a car there? That's your call.

What an incredibly weird argument that is.
I'll give this a go as it took me far too long to work this out - and some might disagree with me.

Taking every single ounce of advice people give to you.

I've found that everyone has a pathway in life, a way they are able to unlock and achieve their full potential. I found that what works for one person, may not always work for another. When I was starting out I would listen without question to anyones advice, peers, managers, business owners and attempt to shape myself to accommodate that advice & guidance - to only find that it would stifle me. Everyone has an opinion on how to do things best, but sometimes you just need to believe in yourself and your own capabilities.

Now I'm not saying don't ever listen to anyone, just be selective on who you listen to.
>A bit different as people never buy the land officially (as in its not registered the Scottish official records).

Sure, much different also given that the money involved is much less, still a good proxy for gullibility.

This looks really great and perfect timing! I can imagine this will be a must have in the future for supermarkets.
I would guess AC (on average across the US) is a big one. Electric heat where it exists and is needed, refrigerators/freezers, over/stove, washer and dishwasher often heat water some. With LED lights/monitors and a general shift to more mobile electronics, I imagine that sort of thing is pretty far down the list.
I knew I would get your comment and almost left out the last line because of it. But, I wanted to keep the quote complete. It still works even if you leave out follow your heart.
I think capableweb's comment is an unintentionally good example of the fact that a lot of people don't understand how much it takes to run these sorts of things. The comment was in the dimension of money, but I'm sure there is a similar lack of information attending the dimensions of people and time as well.
I've been jesting for years that it should be referred to as "Moore's business plan", except it isn't a joke.

That business plan is no longer functional for Intel. Translated, Moore's business plan was to shrink die size, and speed up clocks, so much as to obsolete their previous offering with an 18 month half life.

It just doesn't work that way anymore, and hasn't for quite some time.

Engelbart's Scaling Observation[0], on the other hand, remains quite interesting, and from what I see remains in force. Genetics in particular is still pulling exponential gains out of the luminiferous ether.

In some sense of the word they are already shut down. Moderation is very heavy on both and certain topics just can't become widely shared. For example, a recent thread by a sex worker had something like 8/30 tweets censored off the platform (despite none of the content being graphic, offensive, or illegal).

So sure, Twitter will run for a long time. But it doesn't have very strong guarantees to its users about how it will treat them or what content will be allowed.
> Yes, the evaporating cools down the room, though I can't say I ever noticed it.

How does adding latent heat reduce the sensible heat? Are the clothes washed in very cold water?
Yep,that's what I thought of as well. Discussion from two months ago:

"What will you do when MySpace shuts down?"

We will ALL collectively move to another platform, instead of some users having to move multiple times because the server they are no closed.
Because most people don't want to pay for something that they (think) can get for free.

The other problem is that charging $1/month is a practical pain in the ass. For micropayments, processors will easily take 20-30% of that.
> Nomacs is about as cross-platform as it gets.

Exactly. Most software is cross platform, and a few odd ones run only on Windows, so you get most software.

> Aero snap (or whatever Win+arrows is called now) is not a replacement for a tiling wm

For most cases, yes. Add that other shortcuts to have windows at specific coordinates and stripped of borders, and it's the same.

Here's another big waste of money that was DOA. A child could think of 10 reasons that autonomous robots can't run around the city like little self-driving wheelbarrows. Amazon should have asked a group of kindergarteners to write stories about "Why the robot didn't make it to Susan's house" and they would have every reason for the failure of this project lined up before they built the first one.
Oven, and stove are the major ones. Not everyone has electric oven/stove, but those consume way more electricity than a drier (because they are on more often). Microwaves, space heaters, and hair driers are also major power users.
Instead of being pedantic, it would be better to describe how the examples are flawed, so we could have had a discussion. But you think "nah let's be pedantic".

I urge you to reconsider not being pedantic next time

And what Linus initially wrote was definitely a usable product. The product has evolved more since then, but that doesn't mean the initial version doesn't work. Actually most of the original code still exists.

Back to the original point, this is the example of a >10x engineer (by impact, coding speed, innovation) who conceived, wrote a popular software in days, grew the community, and grew it to the insane popularity today. Only a handful of engineers in the world could ever achieve this kind of things.
Missed the most obvious outcome. We are in a VR simulation. We see more “clues” everyday.

Now how to work within the VR world handed to us. That’s the next steps. Soon to become apparent I’m sure.
To be fair, that devops person would probably not need to do anything 23 out of those 24 hours on 6 out of 7 of those days.

If you use sane software, running a server is not a lot of work.
You will find your people. You looked underneath a stone not many people turn over.

I don't have such a drug story, but I do feel like an alien often. I tend to only be capable of socializing with people who deeply align with my goals and ambitions. Those being: calisthenics, software, fitness, coding, cooking, being organized, etc.

I don't give myself a hard time for seeking a 'strata' of people, etc.

Be selective. Find the people only you want. Be an alien.

>That's why the last decision must be human

Cant be, its either human driver with assist or full self driving.

Sadly due to human nature we cant have both.

In studies people who only suppose to assist the driving computer are very easily bored and distracted - non-active driving - making their reaction time sky high (up to 5 seconds). Human drivers need to be actively engaged in process of driving in order to stay alert.
