Would you go to an art gallery with a friend and expect to look at every piece and both be in complete agreement about how wonderful every piece of art was? Do you expect them to all dress the same as you and eat the same foods and drink the same drinks? Or would you expect your friends to have individual likes and dislikes and to notice different elements in each art work according to the way they perceive the world? Would you diagnose any friend who disagreed with your perception of an artwork you consider wonderful to be suffering from narcissistic personality disorder?

As of two years ago modern medicines reduced exacerbations but did nothing to slow the progress disease, as you claim. If there are new and opposite findings, I haven't seen them.

In chronic inflammatory diseases generally, treating yourself well often or usually has the paradoxical effect that your body now has more resources to attack you with, more viciously; whether re autoinflammation or autoimmune reactions. It cannot be assumed that being good to yourself will make you less miserable - although you will probably live longer.

Re other things that help, smoking has now been shown to help, but earlier studies before people who smoked were pushed outside to do that showed the reverse.

It's true that everyone with MS has a different straw to cling to, but those who swear by modern medicines without deep-diving into the empirical research are amongst this group, not contra. The history of dollar driven MS research and treatment is decades long and a rolling tragedy, economically and otherwise.

A recent study has shown beans help. (Perhaps because soluble fiber is necessary for choline absorption?) But whether that study will hold up I know not.

Sure they talk about the market cap of the US Dollar.

It’s the M1, M2, and M3 money supply. The shadowstats website has done a phenomenal job tracking it over the years objectively. Check it out.

Difference in complexity of IDE's parser and Compiler's parser feels like order of magnitude

IDE's you want to be very fast, so you use techniques like partial tree reparse and now when I think about it, then you also may need to update other places

like you use type that is defined somewhere below

and at first parse that type definition doesn't compile, so type usage above shows an error

and when you change type definition so it compiles, then if you only update that part of the tree, then previous would still scream about the error

it's really tricky

the theory behind how to deal with all of this problems seems to be easy

but when you actually get to the coding, then you have to be really thoughtful, careful and experienced in order to get the modeling of right

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/shows/seth-juarez/anders-h...

________

I have some experience with simpler and more complex parsers

and for me no other type of software requires this much careful thought as parsers do if you want to address all those things like

correctness, speed and recovery on broken code fragments, good error messages, good code, maybe concurrency
To clarify my earlier point as I now realize I sounded more hostile than I intended to. Sometimes, people will flag for aesthetic reasons even if the comment doesn't technically deserve it. They might be tired of negativity, and click the flag button in a moment of weakness just for the experience of being excited about things again. There also is a separate phenomenon of dead or removed comments usually meriting it, even taking into account trigger-happy moderation.

In this case, your comment spawned helpful discussion so I'll happily vouch for it if it is ever killed.
I work remotely from New Zealand for a company in Ireland

I altered my work hours to 3AM to 12 noon. It is amazing.

I catch everyone in the office at the end of the day for meetings. I pick up and finish and work they need done, I get 3-4 hours of deep work every day when they are all gone.

And then I finish at noon, so I can go exercise and enjoy the day working on my startup.

Bed at 6PM to wake up at 3AM
> That seems the most rational and likely response to tactical nuclear use by Russia on a Ukrainian target.

What matters is what happens next. Russia razing Europe and the US in nuclear fire if they feel they are cornered have nothing to lose. Good luck with pushing things this far.
No seriously, møøse bites can be pretty nasty.
Wow those look really nice!
Then discriminate on the socioeconomic inequalities. A poor white person and a poor black person should get aid. Obama’s daughter (black, but rich and powerful) doesn’t need any aid or discrimination in her favor.

Discriminating on the basis of race for these programs is so stupid. Ask why and people say “because socioeconomic status”, but then why don’t you discriminate on that? I think people know this but it’s a political move (black people vote for democrats for the vast majority, so making it means tested instead wouldn’t be popular with them).
...I'm not sure that's something to be proud of.

> The whole point of ditching quantitative tests is to empower the bureaucrats who want to make qualitative judgements based on their personal whims and biases.

I can completely believe that this is the result, but I find it very hard to believe that it is (at least in all cases) the point. At my university, the decision to stop considering some standardized tests came from the department and college level, where we don't even make the decisions, not from the admissions department. While it is easy for me to believe that there were unintended consequences, I can say for sure that what you describe was not our goal.
I see your point. As you mentioned the product is rather young and we continue to develop it. I agree that documentation is one of the fundamental parts. Thank you for your input, we will find a way to make the documentation more straight forward and useful for cases such as you've described.

Perhaps you would be interested in a call with us where we can answer all your questions including integration with your infrastructure, provide help configuring the platform if needed, etc?
Or get beat by somebody so you can create a rivalry.
Now that you put it that way, lifestyle posts weren't an issue on /. because you could filter on topics labeled by moderators that were meta moderated. I actually like lifestyle posts, but I don't want this site to be nothing else. That would be like the grocery store only carrying GPUs. I like them just fine but I'll still need to find a new place to get food.

And the problem I was pointing out with /. wasn't lifestyle posts, it was intentional controversy for the sake of it.
I first read The Waste Land in high school without understanding much of it, but it left a big impression. It felt like the end of an era, one in which education was still rooted in the classical tradition (could someone today so casually quote Ovid in a footnote in the original latin, without even attempting a translation?)
At the companies I've worked, there are no architect roles; architecture is the responsibility of ICs pretty early on (in addition to implementation and ownership of operation). I've seen this at both small startups and large FANG-like companies. Any companies in mind with this sort of role? Thanks!
Maybe I misworded that. I didn't want to ask, how it is/was done. But how it ought to be done.
The “advanced math, physics, research, etc” in high school is all just college admissions prep too. When you major in math you have to take an analysis sequence starting at the beginning because AP calculus isn’t actually math. It’s just memorizing and learning to execute some math related algorithms.

It’s all just signaling. Let’s be open about that instead of hiding the ball.
It is difficult to de-couple these two things, because companies is where science translates to the real world.

We need more direct funding from the rich governments for the kinds of research described in the article, which would address the associated problems “on paper”, while still allowing translation of it in startups etc and ultimately benefitting the general public.

So the problem is not so much that companies sponsor some (!) research, but that the governments simply don’t invest nearly as much into public R&D as they need or could (while preferring to pour money into the military etc.).

As a result, academics have no choice but follow other funding sources to survive in the already hyper-competitive scientific world. Hence, we should not put the blame on them, but rather on the public funding sources.
I think that's why the idea of a protected class has typically been central to US legal definitions of equality: application to every individual characteristic is untenable, but blindness to all impinges on justice too.

Or in essence, how to address the historical inequities of racism and sexism, without also ushering in something ridiculous like "mentalism" that attempts to help people who are "bad at tests and grades."
> Sounds like a perfect environment for a generation of conservatives to get elected. Hopefully they stay close to the center for a long time.

The conservative groundswell is because generations of conservatives have already been getting elected, especially in less flashy positions that wield influence. Conservatives have really played the long game, at least since the New Deal.
Converting a IEEE float to a string is tricky, too, IMO more tricky.

It would be a lot slower, too, and wouldn’t work. How do you define “compare the result”? The strings “0.0” and “-0.0” would have to be equal to each other, and the string “NaN” not equal to itself, “1000” larger than “0.999E3”, etc.
You don’t want travel but that has nothing to do with remote work tho.

I actually look forward to work travel from time to time now since we went fully remote. I’m never going back to office setting as well but occasional meet up is awesome in my experience thus far.
Correct, Go is fast, very close to C.

And just like in C, if you want to avoid memory management overhead you can use a slice of structs, integers instead of pointers, and a freelist (if needed). For example, here is a pointerless sparse bit vector:

https://bugfix-66.com/7256e0772dc3b02d72abf15b171731c933fd44...

The article is storing parses in a balanced binary tree, like a packrat memoizing parser.

Here is the fastest balanced search tree in Go. It allocates (and uses Go's garbage collector) but you can easily use a slice of structs with integer index pointers and a freelist instead:

https://bugfix-66.com/c93e950965804eba90a34e0055985b1c42d5a1...

The above code will perform very similarly to C.
1. The XNU kernel isn't novel, and isn't used by anyone other than Apple. Open-sourcing the NT kernel would effectively kill the project, since everyone would port the Win32 bindings to Linux (same thing would happen if Apple open-sourced their userland software)

2. Apple didn't get to choose whether they could make LLVM/Clang open source. They were forced to release it under GPL, and if you actually look at the license for those projects you'll see that Apple's contributions are dual-licensed.

3. What chance would FoundationDB have if it wasn't OSS? Why would Apple maintain a stale, internal fork of Apache Cassandra?
How do you know you haven't had covid? Lots of people were asymptomatic.
Sounded like they order everywhere, local artisan pizza places as well as national chains. I imagine Domino's was just an easier target to interview. Or maybe the effect is easier to notice if you can aggregate the sales from a large number of restaurants - so large chains have an advantage here compared to individual restaurants or small chains.

... or maybe the article was sponsored by Domino's, who knows :)
because the cascade part of CSS is error prone and because naming stuff is hard. Functional lib like tailwind or tachyons solve both those problem as far as I am concerned.
You're missing the point of leetcode practice (as stupid as the practice is, to begin with). The idea is to recognize patterns in different types of problems and general solutions to those patterns. Brute forcing your way through hundreds of problems with the goal of memorizing solutions is absolutely the wrong (and incredibly time-consuming) way of doing it.
I'll take that as a no, you can't provide any evidence to support your suspicion that this video is faked. Even just something like "He's lied in the past" would suffice, but you can't even do that.
> You are paid based on how difficult you are to replace

May be true in general but definitely is unrelated to location based pay (wouldn't it be easier to higher another faceless IC in the bay area than in OKC?)
If I had to guess how much I split my time between using ChromeOS and Linux on my Chromebook, I’d estimate it to be about even. Half of my day is spent in the browser using web apps. The other half is in Linux using full desktop software. While many Chromebook users stay in the ChromeOS world, I wanted to share how I use Linux on my Chromebook to perhaps broaden some people’s perspectives.
If you ever do precision sports you'll see what a trained human body is capable of. In precision pistol shooting disciplines (standing, single handed, without support) multiple consecutive hole-in-hole hits are very common. This one with arrows is likely more challenging but is entirely believable.
Maybe those with countervailing opinions are too busy working for a living instead of commenting on the internet.
Even very high scorers sometimes find it impossible to get into top schools. Part of the problem is supply of slots has not kept up with population growth. It's not like Harvard's enrollment has kept up with population growth. Another problem is that the ceiling of standardized tests has been lowered, so top scores more more common.
Said every developer who has ever applied floats where scaled integers would be just as effective.

Floats are great to prototype quickly and get a good result. Once the algorithm is found, you can spend more time fine tuning with improvements such as others kinds of ways to represent fractional numbers
Affirmative action for men is an interesting political crossover.

I think this guy is genuine, but I really wasn't sure at first. Some of this just sounds like a threat. Probably because of the anti-feminism vibe in this specific piece, but maybe that's just tailored to the substack audience.
I don’t really know what you do to combat this kind of thing because what would you do as an admissions officer trying to create a student body with a wide range of skills and experiences but you have thousands of applicants who are “focused on having perfect grades to the detriment of everything else and participated in the ‘look how smart I am clubs’.”

And I say this with full self-awareness that this was me. It’s probably the thing I regret most about my high school experience because of how unnecessary it was and how much it set me back on all the things that mattered.

I consider myself extremely lucky that any university took a chance on me because my application was 100% “I have no real interests except playing the game of school and winning by min-maxing the point system” which looking back is so obviously the worst applicant. I for sure lost out on my dream school because of it.
I am considering moving to Canada, do you have a link about this?
I can see occasional traveling as fun, and a break in routine. But I wonder if parent meant, "remote work from a hotel forever".
It is kind of sad though, and I say this as someone who has been trying to analyze more of my own negative reactions and be more positive. A video like this has so much potential to to inspire. And in that vein I do think it’s pretty cool, I hope at some point someone makes a “game” or simulation that’s just an open world earth with some land air and see vehicles. (Time travel would be neat too, but that’s a lot of continent) Moon would be cool to, though a bit less varied :-)
> The more features that get added to Tailwind, the more you have to know about CSS before you can use those features. Right? So why not just bite the bullet and learn to use CSS without the additional tooling (and weird, often lengthy additions to your HTML) that Tailwind and other utility-first styling frameworks require?

This misses the point of Tailwind entirely. The point of Tailwind is to give everyone a common vernacular of CSS phrases so that I can bust out something like "p-2 m-2 border-red" super fast and still be writing code which is immediately comprehensible to everyone else on my team. There's also the benefit that I no longer have to think about class names, which is shockingly large.

Using CSS does not give you that. I don't even address the "learn to use CSS" phrase because anyone who uses Tailwind obviously knows CSS! We do the translation back and forth in our head as necessary.

It's also why I'm not concerned about Tailwind getting more features:

* Tailwind needs to have all the features of CSS, otherwise it's incomplete.

* The notion of Tailwind being "bloated" makes no sense:

* The Tailwind compiler eliminates any styles you don't need.

* Tailwind stylesheets are always going to be much smaller than normal CSS for any decently-sized app.
Me too. And I only had a 30 minute commute. But I moved. How I walk 40 minutes in the morning and 120 minutes in the evening. Because I can. I’m not in a city where there is constant construction on sidewalks.
But who is to decide what is and isn’t nitpickery? There is a famous story about Senna, the formula one driver who drove round a course and crashed into a wall. When he got back to the pit stop and was asked how he crashed Senna was adamant that the wall had moved. Everyone thought he was mad but nonetheless they went out and measured it and it turned out that the wall was a few millimetres out from where it should have been.

Everyone perceives the world differently. What is nitpickery to one person can be the difference between success and a car crash to another.

I'm as impressed as you are but telling people that the graphics are realistic is basically a challenge. Nobody complained about the unrealistic graphics of Super Mario 64.
For another ultra-realistic feel in a computer game: https://twitter.com/esankiy/status/1580225720361832448

The trick here is you have a very POV camera-mounted-on-head effect with lens distortions (in I think VR) and the environment is very deteriorated, making me doubt it was a game in the first place!
I've seen it (incorrectly) described before that native Americans were practically clones from a genetic perspective, so it's a relatively mild strawman.

Founder effects did reduce genetic diversity of native Americans and it takes a long time to rebuild that. We actually use this to track historical migrations. It's also worth pointing out that a very similar process affected everyone outside Africa. That's why the sharpest dropoff in genetic diversity is between Africa and everywhere else. Not all diversity is equal or generates at the same rate either and the highest diversity genes tend to be the ones related to disease resistance /immune system functioning. Native Americans actually have several new alleles here that apparently evolved independently in the new world. When you talk about specific things like the MHC, they're still quite diverse and not too far off from similar European populations.
> Is the software separate from the hardware, or coupled?

Usually bundled for the user, but can be completely separated.

> Good resolution is also important. Say I want to analyze something the size of a can of soup and get to tens of microns resolution.

The Bruker machine I use can do ~15 cm diameter samples at ~40 um voxel size, so that’s something that should be possible with any machines.

> Bringing cost down

MicroCT machines are not cheap, but - as I’ve seen from our buying process - all in the same ballpark.
You might not need your own machine, but use a ‘supplier’ for CT Scans in a case-to-case basis.
When I lived in Sweden I read about the concept of “no permanent damage.” The playgrounds seemed much more dangerous than the ones I grew up with here in the United States. I suppose liability has a lot to do with it. I’ve attempted to incorporate that principle into the activities I encourage my own kids to participate in—allow them to experience and explore things that are somewhat dangerous in order to grow.
It threatens the music industry for sure, but I doubt most musicians would turn up their nose at another creative tool. Imagine how fun it would be to dig through a crate of AI-generated samples, or use a couple sentences to describe the perfect drum fill. There's an entire other echelon of artistry we're missing, simply because everyone is fearmongering AI. Pop music has always been a field of engineering, so a robot that can automate the process of writing a catchy tune should destroy your business.

don't waste energy thinking for other people and invest it in whatever works best for you.
My first thought is this is really getting into the uncanny valley. Some things look incredibly realistic that it highlights how other things don't and overall creates a bit of a jarring effect. Some random thoughts:

1. You see the sidewalk on the bridge is wet like it's been freshly rained on. Other things don't look like this. The bridge is higher than the road on the far side so should be drier but the road looks drier;

2. The boat just looks off to me. It's like it's too "clean";

3. Of course the movement of people is off. Games just haven't conquered this yet.

4. The water also looks off given the lighting and the conditions. It should be murkier rather than dark with an almost oily finish;

5. It looks like the near side of the canal is in shade but I don't really see the line from whatever is obstructing this (assumedly it's buildings to the "left"). The Sun is low in the sky to the left;

6. The sky just doesn't seem to match the expected position and lighting from the Sun.

Don't get me wrong: it is amazing, particularly rendered in real time. But there are uncanny valley artifacts.
In IEEE754, yes.
