Thanks for the feedback. Full disclosure, I work for the company which open sourced this project.

I haven't been following loom closely, but it appears there are still pieces being put in the Java SE for it and it hasn't been fully delivered.

For instance, in java 19, virtual threads are still in preview[0].

If you wanted to build a web server running on a LTS of Java with loom, you'd have to wait until Sep 2023[1] (though of course you could write code against versions 19+ too).

I think it'd be great to file a feature asking for loom support[2], but do you really think loom is ready to be the foundation of a prod ready web server right now?

Sorry if that sounds like FUD, but I truly don't know. the two projects[3][4] linked in the infoq article are explicitly experimental or demo apps.

That said, I did find this thread of projects that support loom now[5].

Basically the protocol is to be on a beta blocker and then recall the memory and explore it followed by normal sleep.

This pulls the memory into short term storage and then when you sleep the memory will reconsolidate into long term storage but without the physiological adrenaline/stress response.

I had some terrible experiences that provoked strong grief responses and it took several cycles of recall / reconsolidation before the emotional stress response was stripped to something manageable.
There are many homeschooling curricula that are tailored for remote learning or for parent assisted learning. The government schools tried to do remote learning just like a classroom, but remote. Big fail.

Parents I know who switched to homeschooling with classes designed for that did quite well, except that extra curriculars were all shut down by government.

The teachers unions insisted on schools being closed, despite no perceivable risk. It was known very early on that since ACE2 receptors kick in at puberty, there was very little if any risk to children. The disease needs those receptors.

If you look at Sweden

https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2026670

they kept schools open for up thru 10th grade, with no masks. The incidence of covid in teachers and other adult staff was pretty much the same as for the general population. The incidence of covid between 10th grade (in school) and 11th grade (remote) was indistinguishable.

In other words, kids may get it, but get a weak case. The incidence of severe infection was like the flu, and we don't shut down everything for the flu.

Also from this data, adults very rarely get a strong case from children.

This was known by the end of term in 2020 (spring). There is absolutely no excuse that school systems should have been shut down going into fall 2020 with this as a known fact.
My point was that it isn't just the law, it's a good thing generally to encourage, even if there are no legal requirements to do so.
Interested to know how one can misuse postgres enough to ban it!
A useful test for olive oil is its taste when swallowed. If it produces a hot sensation in the throat this is due apparently to oleocanthal, a major polyphenol in the oil. Oleocanthal has been cited in numerous publications as having anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties.

What’s your take on non processed high sugar food? Fruits, honey, etc.

I’m someone that is very anti processed foods but generally ok with sugar. I wonder what the overlap is.

Common Lisp isn't exactly functional. At this point python is as functional as Common lisp but you wouldn't call Python functional
Installed fine on my 2018 15" MacBook Pro. Still a good machine that I use as my main machine. Took about 20 minutes I guess, didn't time it but was ready quicker than I expected.

None of the changes are life changing but oh well, isn't often a desktop OS really surprises me with something new these days. Hopefully it is as stable as Monterey was for me which didn't have a single crash in the whole year.

Stage Manager is interesting but a very minimal effort by Apple. They really need to work on better overall window management in macOS. Snapping and tighter keyboard management for moving and resizing windows is badly needed. Either that or they need to relax their accessibility restrictions for apps so that we can get some good third-party options without needing to disable SIP.

Overall it seems to be mostly quality of life improvements, a few related to their primary services (such as Photo Library sharing) which will obviously be handy for up-selling iCloud/Apple One paid upgrades.

I am interested to see the new virtualisation framework stuff. Wondering if things like Distrobox (podman) can make use of it.
I wonder how many years until every DRM vendor can enforce pluton as a baseline. 5 more?
It's almost as if human nutrition and mortality are complex systems and a single foodstuff doesn't have any significant effect.

Not only that but surely nobody is surprised that the people who can afford the more expensive version of a product live longer.

Why have we not given up on this nonsense idea of miracle foods already?
Frontline did a documentary about this a while back. Your plastic fruit container may have "3" on it with the recycle symbol, which means it can go to a facility that can recycle that grade of plastic, but that doesn't mean your city / state has a facility that can process that, or will spend the money to build such a facility.

It was a move from the plastics industry to push a feel-good policy, but is likely not doing as much good as many of us think.

nuclear energy is also good example i think.

> That statement tells you a lot about the "article". Only someone with a very strong agenda would view 5% child abuse as "only".

It also entirely ignores findings of neglect. An agent who inspects a home and discovers that the children are sleeping on the living room floor and have no clean clothing, for example, hasn't found evidence that children have been "physically or sexually abused", but has made a finding of neglect which is probably sufficient for intervention.

This isn't to say that there aren't problems here. The article goes on to discuss a number of real problems in home inspections from child services -- but this statistic alone isn't representative of the real situation.
That can't be the whole story.

If we assume the drive can write 500MB/s (conservative), and an OS install takes up 50GB of space (conservative), it should take less than 2 minutes to write the partition. Where does the other 58 minutes go?

I could, as you seem to have done, totally reworded the original quote to mean something that makes sense to me, but I was curious to hear if the author had anything in his/her mind. I'm pretty surprised at the responses.

Here was the original quote, specifically not talking about the environmnet, but rather as a principle to apply to the environment, for reference:

> If profit and self-preservation are at odds, profit wins.
> The problem is when RealPage becomes a market mover - a company that has so much market influence that it doesn't just participate in the market, but exerts control over the market. I

Your whole post is insightful and correct but it's actually even more basic than that.

RealPage doesn't have to be a market mover, it doesn't even have to be an organization, it can just be a concept, it could literally be a math equation. It could be the words "don't lower rents by more than X% ever" spray painted on a piece of plywood. It could be a trade association that is a non profit.

It doesn't matter what the mechanism is. The collusion comes from everyone using it. When everyone is following the same script then it doesn't matter what color paper the script is written on, what matters is everyone following it is engaged in a conspiracy.

When a real estate firm signs up for the software they've made a decision to join an illegal price fixing conspiracy. Focusing on the mechanism of exactly what's going on inside the black box of the software itself is a red herring. As long as it involves fixing prices, then it's price fixing. A

Clearly, that's exactly what it is.
So if 5% of extra-legal searches result in dirt, then extra-legal searches are worth it?

For me the most interesting thing about using large language models is they offer a kind of conversation with the average of the human data they were trained on. They surprise me by telling me when I'm doing something boring.

When Copilot guesses the next method name or comment I was going to type, it's doing that by saying "this would be the most boring, average string of tokens to come next, so here you go," and it's fascinating how often that's right -- how often I'm wrong about how surprising the next line was. It's like how terrible humans are at generating unique passwords, except for everything I type. Copilot doesn't help by knowing things I don't, because it doesn't know anything, but it does help by guessing what I was obviously going to do next without me having to call out to memory.

Once I have access to that average-of-humanity information for a while, I start to want it for the rest of my life too. OK, fine, that's the next method name I was going to write. [tab, autocomplete]. OK, fine, that's how I was going to close out my email. [tab, autocomplete]. Well, huh, I wonder if it knew what I was going to type next on the command line? [yes, probably]. I wonder if it knew which things I was going to buy in the grocery store? [yes, probably]. It starts to feel limiting to not have access to what the average next step in the sequence would be.

And then it turns out that average-of-humanity models have all kinds of potential impacts on political power and labor and property law and so on, so all of that is pretty interesting too. But for me it starts with just poking at the model and going, oh, hey, it's ... everyone, how are you all doing?
> I know the intent is very different but this is what the Hitler youth was all about.

This is wildly inaccurate. The Hitler youth was a fully voluntary group -- in fact, at times exclusionary even among favored in-groups. It was more like what would happen if you combined elite prep schooling, the youth wing ("Young _s") of a fringe political party, and scouting into a single organization. This didn't change until 1936, and even then, the upper ranks of the group were dominated by the description above.
No chance, we're already compiling those to our wasm-based frontend apps
Nice. How would one go about finding such suggestion for consumption in Europe?
You are in the wrong here. Putin did threaten to use nuclear weapon when he said “we will certainly use all the means at our disposal, this is not a bluff”. There is no misleading there. He tried to justify it by saying that’d be in response to some threat to Russia. We all know Nazi has been the justification for his invasion of Ukraine, no matter how ridiculous it is. Do you think he wouldn’t fabricate another threat to justify his use of nuclear weapon?

As for reporting it as threaten to use nuclear weapon as “first strike”, I haven’t seen any news that specifically mentioned “first strike”. Care to give an example?
PTSD is a disorder because people aren’t clearing or processing these things successfully and it becomes disruptive to their life. Sometimes it destroys their lives.

If someone successfully processes the trauma in a way that isn’t disruptive, they by definition don’t have PTSD anymore.

What you’re saying is a bit like saying someone who suffers from persistent, terrible constipation, to the point it causes them health issues should ‘just poop’.

If they could on their own, they wouldn’t have the problem!
This problem largely didnt exist 60 years ago because mentally troubled people were institutionalized https://www.kqed.org/news/11209729/did-the-emptying-of-menta...

You can either setup incentives pulling those people away from population centers (free food, drugs, shelter) or bring back Mental Hospitals and forcefully incarcerate. What LA/SF seem to be doing now is ... providing free food/drugs/shelter and protection in downtown and wondering why regular citizens complain. Something has to give, the worse it slowly gets the more drastic snap overreaction when things flip and someone radical gets in power.
I worked at a UARC in Maryland about 10 years ago, as an assistant (so take my words with a grain of salt). Among the PhDs we hired, there were some people who struggled in their job search because they did laborious research that didn't yield a lot of publications. Others were coming from industry (and then returned to industry research). My PI came to the center because he was denied tenure on the campus we were affiliated with.

Our research projects had a heavy focus on application and mostly yielded technical reports, not publications. We had to write a lot of BS boilerplate about how our projects contributed to national security.

I got some co-author credits and a few conference posters out of the experience, but it was hard to pretend that it was high-impact research.

My read is that a UARC is a crossroads for academics who aren't doing great in their careers and are on the way out into private industry or defense jobs.
I'm coming from a techy 30-something person with Android for years, but also had iPhone for work from 2014-2019.

The UI of Nova Launcher on my S21 is so much more intuitive than Apple. Apple does everything through swipes. Swipes suck for several reasons, one of them being that I must swipe certain positions at certain speeds to get everything done. I miss buttons. Related: After two weeks of owning an iPhone 14, I was complaining about how I can't move my cursor in the URL field. It just kept highlighting words! My friend told me the super-intuitive iOS experience: hold down Spacebar to move your cursor. I'm glad that was covered in the non-existent tutorial.

Then there are the anxiety inducing badges, the fact that settings is an app instead of a system menu, the fact that control center (or whatever the system drop down is) can't have nearly the function of Android's system drop down, the fact that notification center doesn't feel trustworthy or consistent, the fact that notification center shows me notifications from blacklisted apps even in focus mode...

Android's UI just makes so much more fucking sense. And I hate that I am tempted now to go back to my S21 with inferior camera and DAC/bluetooth stack just to have software that makes sense.

I acknowledge this is a rant and not as well put-together as most of my comments, but effing Hell, iOS is a mixed bag.
Almost every Mac user I know is in that category. Generally they use a company-issued Mac for work and have a personal Android phone.
Flour spoils much faster then unmilled grain. So the bulk of the grain would always be left as grain for storage. Armies would be the ones who would want to bulk mill an entire harvest taken from a region.

For those without access to windmills, the daily grind would produce flour/ meal for that day.
Watch out if you have uploaded a music collection to Apple Music and are thinking of cancelling the service. Someone had a bad experience recently:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33309161

Last week I cancelled Apple Music. I found that my previously large music collection, which I had before joining Apple Music and its convenient web upload, was in tatters. Most albums were gone, and of the few ones still there, many had missing songs. Is that progress? Luckily I found the missing music as part of the backup of a laptop I decommissioned in 2016.
I always suspected this, because given what I know of the average American, there's no chance that the recycling bins aren't full of all kinds of nonrecyclable items. The only things that I expect are reliably recycled are those which are profitable enough to pick out of the mess.
A frustrating thing to see coming from Apple, who originally had us so excited about open web protocols (death of Flash etc) but now aims to lock users into the walled garden at any opportunity.

Apple sees they cannot extract their 30% cut on each NFT sale, and also sees how users might be inclined to exit the walled garden if a game/app and its assets can only be purchased outside of the App Store. It looks like with the "no functionality" clause, they've decided just to try and stop the problem altogether, before NFT usage continues to grow.

It may also be that they wish to eventually release their own wallets and smart contracts (tokens/NFTs), and force all in-app activity through them to get their 30% fee.
And when those more complex concepts do come up and are too difficult to teach (or you want to lower the barrier of entry), you can always create a view that reduces the complexity back down to a select from.
I cannot help but see a visual of Jim Carrey saying "Alrighty then" every time I read the name.
It would, that's the whole point. That's why we develop ever-more-accurate missiles, and why we quasi-openly advertise their CEP.

If you had missiles with lousy accuracy, you'd never consider a counterforce strike. Do as the Chinese did until recently, and target cities and industrial centers. Counterforce targeting is a cheap and effective strategy. OTOH, look at the United States: Trident D-5 is more accurate than the stock MMIII (it's not openly known how MMIII with AIRS from the MX fairs). We can land RVs so accurately that they may as well have conventional warheads. That's destabilizing — but we tend towards the exceedingly rational in our decisions.

Google deleted a COVID-19 video I'd uploaded to Google Drive to keep for prosperity. I'm a bit of a bower bird [0] and I'd kept it because it was the most "out-there" thing I'd seen. Nowhere is safer then a Google Drive right? One day, it disappeared. Another "out-there" video I'd uploaded about the same time (it was a sales pitch from a some USA data collector demonstrating how they could tracked phones to plot COVID spread) remains to this day.

The disappeared video was selling a preppers handbook. The sales pitch was CVOID-19 is a US government conspiracy, and you needed to prepare for the downfall of the USA. If I was internet publishing company there is no way I'd be letting my platform host the video. But I wasn't publishing it.

So the way you do these experiments that at the transmitter you use an arbitrary waveform generator with ~4 DAC channels which let you modulate a single wavelength channel in IQ and two polarizations (4 dimensions). These devices have typically a memory of around 500k samples and rates of up to 120 GS/s (newest one actually has 256 GS/s Google keysight AWG if you are interested). So you generate a sequence of ~120k symbols (depending on symbolrate/oversampling) with 12 bit/per symbol (assuming 64 QAM). That sequence repeats over and over. You then use the multiplexing/emulation techniques described in other posts to emulate the other channels. This is essentially due to limitations of the measurement equipment. You can't just convert a random incoming bitstream into analogue symbols (with FEC coding) in realtime.

In a deployed system this would be done by specific Asics that take millions to develop and are comparatively inflexible. Thus if you want to test/research methods you use the above mentioned equipment which gives much more flexibility.

I meant the rest of the industry. They said “wow” and then went back to business as usual. They had talking points about how they’ll improve and performance (as always) and efficiency got talked up more.

But when will any of that show up? Hardware takes time but I just don’t see reviewers demanding it. They’ll be happy if it shows up but they’re not calling out “this isn’t good enough” and I just don’t get it. How can they use an M1 and go back to a hot low battery life Intel laptop in the same price class and say “this is fine?”

That's for loose packed asbestos (common in roofs).

That's not all or the only way asbestos can be packaged. Which is my point. If you bind asbestos to vinyl, for example, you get a lot of the same insulation benefits with none of the problems of becoming a health hazard.

That's the problem. Yes, loose blown asbestos IS a problem and a major health hazard, but it's not the only form asbestos can take. Hence, baby thrown out with the bath water.
