Same here, lost the keys to a sizeable wallet that was god knows how big at one point, I stopped checking a while ago but it was a good exercise in letting go and learning to value other things. I can't complain, most of my regrets are related to how I spent or wasted money, there's worse things and life went on to turn out great regardless of my net worth.
All the stupid startup/app ideas I've had so far
Here is the list of all ideas I've had so far but never actually took time to create any of them or go further into details

- Church givings - not sure how it's called, but in Christianity while being in Church a person goes around and asks for the money from people, so people give a dollar or few cents. So some kind of app that does that on global scale for the Church

- Would you do it for a dollar? - I even coded this. Basically person can ask someone else: would you _____ for a dollar? And if other person does it and uploads the proof, he gets the money

- You have a dollar? - As beggars beg in real life for a dollar, how about begging online for a dollar

- iEgg - just selling egg with Apple's logo for a high price. This might not be possible because of the logo, copyrights and shit

- Messaging with push notifications only - nowadays you can reply directly from push notifications. So no chat lists, no list of messages or such. You reply directly via push notification

- Don't meet in person - some kind of dating site that forces you not to meet in person, so everything must stay online

- Stupid people repellent - like some kind of mace or such, if someone annoys you, you spray them or around to repel them

- Alien emoji - regular emojis but with double eyes and green color, like this ::D ::) ;;) They are more strong than regular, so if you type ::D it means you are extra happy

- Social network where everything is fake - fake followers, fake likes. Like a hyper networks, you become popular extra fast and gain followers fast. You get likes and notifications from fake people, boosting your dopamine
I just want Sony to release updated versions of their QX10/QX100 external cameras for smartphones- it was such a good concept, just slightly ahead of its time. I'm sure they would sell lots of them nowadays.

Be careful: 16 bits was quite a lot of colors around 20 years ago. Now we would laugh at it. Ditto for 640Kb of RAM (who would need more?) etc.

Not trying to be dismissive just saying that... computational limits are limits on what can be done, in the end.
Usually alien abductions thoughts revolve around an intrusive test to see if you have a chess cheat device inserted, or should that be upserted?
I have a hard time to even come up with an example. Many web apps skip documentation and just use a help forum instead.

Google Workspace has quite good docs, but not really stellar.
TY closed down their own disc manufacturing in 2015. Nowadays the CMC Pro line (with 'Powered by TY Technology' branding) is the closest you're going to get.
Adam Pluto Overview
I'm wearing a W-800H since quite a while, and it feels like an updated F91W. Strap doesn't break, improved lighting, 4 buttons instead of 3 so that you can adjust it in the dark, better date display, and still light, cheap and reliable. Highly recommended.
I'd argue this is one of the last things people will be thinking about in this election. No one is changing their vote over this...the economy and abortion will drive this cycle.
It’s not a regret but would’ve been a different life path - in 2003 I let people talk me out of pursuing Intellectual Property Law because of my interests in music and technology intersecting with the law - and the reason they cited? There’s no money in IP law.

Right, the folks working in Texarkana on Federal cases for Samsung and the like drive used Hyundai minivans and buy ramen in bulk these days /s.

Pretty glad I didn’t go that route though because deep down I love competition, cocaine, and strippers. About as much of a 180 from present day me.
> Probably the only material impervious to damage is diamonds.

Diamonds burn, and have the same problem as precious metals: getting stolen and repurposed.

> Stone can degrade as well.

Yes, but that doesn’t mean you can beat it.

And obviously you’d pick your stone based it’s characteristics and the environment, you wouldn’t record your message to the next generation on pumice.
"Rare-earth" metals, are not, in fact, scarce. Insisting otherwise is misinformed at best, or disingenuous in your case, because you have already been told otherwise.
There are lots of changes that are nice-to-have efficiency improvements.

But there are no new killer features. I would guess that the extra user headaches from having outdated software not work with new torrents will exceed the benefits of slightly faster downloads and slightly better availability.
If you need a TCP replacement, you won't find a QUIC one
I think the other way to look at it, is that the prize can also be a political tool. That’s how we achieve peace after all.

You’re not just recognising the progress he US might have made, but signalling the current leader that hey, you could also leave your mark. Obama seems like a pretty reasonable and intelligent person to me. He probably thought about why they awarded it to him.
I'd say that the premise of the article is captured in the title perfectly. One needn't to read the article to get it. So, we can strengthen your assertion and to say that "lotta people here are not reading the title." People react to the first part of the title. Seems they are really exasperated by all these repeated deaths of Moore's law.
Love Transmission but went to picotorrent a few years ago, even smaller footprint https://github.com/picotorrent/picotorrent Sadly it’s Windows only
> The study, from Russian researchers [...] They would deorbit after 1-3 months [...] But it gets a little fuzzy in the income estimates.

Even assuming that this could be done once or twice for some stupid novelty effect stunt, there is no way in hell that this can become a viable business practice.
the frequency plateau always been a power consumption/leakage thing, and power draw for recent intel cpus only reinforces that. it's probably too early to tell if 6ghz is a new normal

and fwiw ive had a 5ghz+ overclock on every cpu ive bought in the last ten years with a corsair 240mm aio, going back to the 3570k
This is true but the problem is I’m in my early 30s. I have to start planning now for what’s my next profession, and I hope I pick one that won’t get disrupted…

Then feed that into any CDN which works with HLS, which should be all of them.

All CDNs are going to charge based on usage, that's how they work, some offer a free tier but you have to take responsibility for managing your costs and ensuring your revenue scales (otherwise just use YouTube)

Alternatively there's also:

Not only that, but some services like Britbox purposefully gimp their system.

Supports AppleTV, Android, Android TV, Roku and Fire TV in the USA.

AppleTV, Android, Roku and FireTV in the UK.

Why have they decided to not support my Shield TV in the UK? Who knows but NowTV has the same limitation so sometimes you have to find alternatives.
Not to demean the work done by all past recipients, but it feels like we're just a handful of years away from handing this prize to Elon Musk.
It's worth pointing out that Gödel's axioms are commonly thought to be stronger than the existence of God (or gods, or "godlike objects") insofar as they entail modal collapse. Apparently, there are improvements of his argument that work around this, but I have never looked into them.
I pay for Netflix, Apple TV, Prime Video and Disney+ and go to the cinema every couple of months, but I still steal stuff. Sometimes I find out it was available on one of these services but it just happened that the search in QBittorrent was easier.

I am once again asking the entertainment industry to charge me literally any price they like per month to have all this in one place permanently.
Obama himself was somewhat mystified by the award.

But it is indeed as you say: the thinking process is somewhat opaque at times. I watched the announcement just now from the Nobel museum in Stockholm where they discussed it. It was inevitable that the award this year would relate to Russia somehow, but they thought it inappropriate to award to a leader actively waging war (even a defensive war).

Discussed yesterday when we were there was your talking point about Obama's award being about what he represented and not about anything he did.
"their field" is a fuzzy concept. For example for a GP their field is "medicine". By definition they need to know just enough about everything to direct you to a specialist when needed, but it's simply impossible to be up to date with everything.

On the other hand, there's a huge number of consultants for enterprises which still write .net 4 like it's 2008 and they're both happy and productive. Unless they're sent to a training, why bother learning new stuff?
What if doing dozens of REST calls is effectively the product?
I can not speak about movies and shows, as I don't watch either, I can speak only about music.

For me, streaming services for music is no-go. It is not about money, it is about control.

I prefer to listen only albums (not playlists, tracks, sets, mixes, etc), and I prefer to choose masterings & presses. Yes, Spotify has whole King Crimson catalog, but which masterings/remasterings among many? I don't know, Spotify doesn't provide this information and can change material at any moment without notification. Also all streaming services has stupid regional limitations (and I'm in process of transitioning from sanctioned country to "normal" one, good luck to use streaming services in this situation), and could remove whole catalog on whim due to some problems with label.

If I can buy music in ownable format (which means mostly "if it is presented at bandcamp"), I buy it, no problem. If I cannot - I download it. Also, I'm still buy CDs on concerts. Again, it is not about money (I've spent on bandcamp much more than several years of Spotify subscription), it is about owning music I love in exactly form I want.
The point is that the number of features reduces by one at each node during training, but the features could themselves be scores from a probability distribution. It would be a form of preprocessing. The threshold is selected to minimize the difference in size of the split (training) sets, or to maximize information gain.

During classification, each node has a binary output.
> read your Hume

No.

Either discuss this with me or don't. Don't summon your sacred scrolls to do the arguing for you.

> It is a logical fallacy

Instead of just parroting my stance in response, I'll try to elaborate some more. Please either follow my example or don't reply to me at all.

Logic itself cannot bring you knowledge about the world, as the concept of apriori knowledge is crackpipe bullshit. All knowledge is based on induction, even your knowledge that induction is fallible. Saying induction is a "logical fallacy" doesn't even make sense, since the purpose of induction is not to perform logical operations.
Obama was awarded it because of his net-zero goal for nuclear arms and his progress on Iran. Even that all these turned out to be failed now, the decision back then made sense.
Anything specific feedback/outcome you’re looking for by posting these?
FWIW, qbittorrent also has a built-in web interface. It's also one of the most feature-rich BitTorrent clients.

https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent
I stopped using clients on my computer as my NAS has a built in client that allows me to quickly download content straight to that device without using my computer as a middleman. Transmission was my go to for a very long time though!
Disappointed to not discover a lathe, drill press, any form of manual or cnc manufacturing equipment, 3D printers or basically anything else that could be used to manufacture stuff. Since “factory” is after all derived from “manufactory”… a place that manufactures stuff. This thing aggressively boils stuff to modern hygiene standards … this isn’t a factory it’s a very overgrown commercial kitchen appliance.

Not saying it wasn’t worth it or a good idea or otherwise denigrating the device itself… I just think this isn’t a good use of the word factory.
Splunk alleges source code theft by former employee who started rival biz
That negotiation still requires lawyers. Overall less legal expense assuming it succeeds, but we're still talking about a 5-figure legal bill at minimum, which for a small startup is a big hit. The employee distraction will probably double the cost at least, so it's reasonable to expect they'll lose 6 figures on this, which is equivalent to hiring another employee.
Note that if you use VBR instead of CBR the video player will have more trouble with buffering logic because (many players) will buffer a fixed duration or number of segments. When there's lots of action the bitrate will be high and when it's idle it will be low, so the variability causes buffer challenges.

Capped VBR is one of the most common ways to do VBR on live streaming.
Most BT clients do do a lookup of IP addresses. Many do it to provide little flags in the UI to say which country a user is from. Some also use the results as part of an algorithm to ban bad clients (if all clients from the same ISP are sending bad data, ban the whole ISP).
except if you use the appropriate non-blocking methods! with blocking io, kotlin coroutines are just running in a thread pool.
Ah I see, I assumed it would be a multihost setup.
Well then, let us all break out our extra small violins, and play a somber tune, for the person in their late 30s who still has to work 20 hours a week.
> European Commission

> Open Societies Foundation

This is quite the array of influential backers. Too bad more information about the Nobel deliberations isn't made public, it would be interesting to see how much this factors into their calculus. There are a lot of Ukrainian organizations doing important work during this conflict, but I had never heard of this one.
oh yes yes. what was i thinking! ty for correction
How would your client know what other clients have uploaded to other clients?
yes, most of sea were emptied by rich countries in past. it is a small list, there are not enough fish for everyone.
Isn't fly ash quite high in radioactive material and a source of indoor radon when used in house construction?
Indeed.

Your comment prepared me for the experience, but the ball did not drop in my case until taeric's comment (which incidentally missed your point).

To taeric: Anything IS an analog computer of itself. Doing it for real completely bypasses the need to simulate.
Most people have a very cynical view of politics and I can emphasize. However, I try to stay more positive about it. Politics, for me, is about making decisions in groups too large to just talk with everyone. In such circumstances “bridge people”, like davewritescode, who can communicate with multiple factions are very valuable for progress.

Sadly, especially in large “safe” enterprises people don’t want to learn this. Developers blame managers for “not understanding software” and managers blame developers for “lack of business understanding”.
Right, good point.

My main argument is that the consumer electronics as small systems are so so sooo optimized for cost. (Which is good, people can afford them.) But somewhere along the way the components inside them stopped being useful by themselves. (Of course a direct consequence of optimization of integrated parts.)

This basically resulted in custom parts for custom systems. And now as software is eating everything custom software is also part of the system. (Though at least it brought back some general parts!)

Safety as a system level property is still there, but completely lost in the parts. And similarly many other desirable properties have been optimized out. (Like reliability, serviceability, etc.)
There is a lot of weird things I'm gonna do with this. 2023 is going to be a very weird year.
Reporting Performance on a Single Dataset?
If you think it was a wrong decision who should have received it in 2009?

Also I think the civil rights argument seems wrong to me. Citing Wikipedia:

"Jagland said the committee was influenced by a speech Obama gave about Islam in Cairo in June 2009, the president's efforts to prevent nuclear proliferation and climate change, and Obama's support for using established international bodies such as the United Nations to pursue foreign policy goals."
How you know that? That is your biased opinion, probably shaped by emotional news.
High quantities of omega-3s are present in fish offal.
However, in our country, we only consume the offal of a reliable, clean fish, such as "i.e. Milkfish." We cook them and eat them either "boiled pickled fish" style or in sour soups.
Sam's project is not obviously fraudulent. But it also is not what the article was about. All fusion startups except Sam's are obviously fraudulent, as they all depend upon burning tritium that cannot be obtained, among numerous other intractable problems. ITER, likewise.

Sam's depends on 3He which is even rarer, but for which they have not obviously unworkable plans to breed in their reactor. Even if those don't work, the reactor could be usable in spacecraft relying on the limited supply, as we do for plutonium in thermoelectric generators sent to the outer solar system..
Aha? And how’s this feature supposed to work without doing that?
the `read -r foo < configfile` might be obscure, but every line in a POSIX text file ought to have a newline terminator. If this is worth erroring out on probably depends on context.
nand2tetris definitely.
The first, and only recent (though without references and poorly written) link specifically says:

>Anti-computer playing is now irrelevant against engines as they can beat any human by the tactical strenght of standard engines or by the deeper evaluations of new neural network ones.

The second is a reddit comment which only implies they can maybe improved on a low-depth old version (lichess') version of Stockfish. Particularly unconvincing as an engine could also make progress even if it thinks it cant as more moves happen and it can see further, and as they tried multiple things, and then went back effectively just having their engine explore more paths deeper.

The third one is from 2008, when yes you could improve on strong engines consistently.

The fourth is from 2016, just before the 2017 breakpoint and possibly the last time you could improve on them.

The fifth one is from 2015. ditto.

There is a reason that there aren't links of say a team winning against the TCEC winner or anything solid proving your point.
Linux distros use it for distributing their installers.
There are some sensitive matters they deal with related to the privacy of the victims and their relatives, so decentralization is not the best way to do it (I doubt encrypted torrents are reliable enough). We need a globally distributed network of backups with data centers in safe harbors that have minimal interference from local government.
Well considering they killed the idea of having a portal to access content, convenience isn't actually that high for me.

Boxee was excellent for this, we used their services, and paid for them, but a standardised interface let me watch shows from different networks.

These days they would have to work with Plex but they would never actually cooperate.
Get a manufacturer to make you a pressed CD using glass as a base layer and gold as the reflective layer. Glass CDs are actually a thing[1], and a gold reflective layer should not complicated the production that much.

I'd actually expect such a CD to last tens of thousands of years.

For your requirement of 100 to 200 years, a pressed (not burned) CD might well be sufficient if the storage conditions are optimal (cool, dry, no oxygen).

It's not just a propaganda move.

It is meant to provide 2 things:

- Legally allow Russia according to it's own laws to send conscripts to the claimed territories. This is necessary due to the extreme man power shortage.

- Legally allow Russia to officially threaten with nuclear force. Officially doing so otherwise is agains official Russian military doctrine. All nuclear saber-rattling before was unofficial.

Formally annexing was a legal necessity for Russia because otherwise Russia legally no longer had any way to escalate a "special military operation" they are loosing according to their own declared objecives.

Even a supreme dictator is still bound by the laws of their own dictatorship even if they can change those laws at will. Respecting the process is part of retaining support and legitimacy.
well, nothing is certain. My point was, starting is better than not starting and regretting that you are too late to start. Deciding what to start is the question.
Agility and Architecture Together – Enabling a Fast Flow of Change
This is a problem only with fish that are relatively high on the food chain (such as tuna), as each rung on the ladder effectively acts as a multiplier for heavy metals accumulation. Also fish that are high on the food chain are usually caught older (larger) so they've had much more time to accumulate heavy metals (I just today saw a headline saying "the snapper you're eating may have been 60 years old"). You could live your whole life eating nothing but canned sardines (which are caught young and small) and you'd never have a mercury toxicity problem (at least with the levels of mercury contamination in the oceans today).

Another thing is that fish oil supplements do not seem to suffer any heavy metal contamination; partly because the fish used for this purpose happen to be low on the food chain, and partly because of the way the fish oil is processed. There have been a couple of studies where they actually tested more than a dozen common (i.e. supermarket availability) fish oil supplements and found zero mercury or other heavy metal contamination in most of them and only insignificant trace levels in one or two IIRC.
