Natural language conveys information to other people just fine. So the problem isn't that "Natural language is a fundamentally wrong vehicle to convey information to a computer". The problem is getting the computer to understand natural language to the same level as a human.

Any of the courses from the University of Helsinki [1]. They are free for everyone, have good explanations, and most importantly, great exercises to practice programming with an auto-grading system that gives feedback when you make mistakes.

Programming is really only something you learn when you have to do it. Most of the online courses online (DataCamp being one of them) have very simple assignments that can be done via copy/paste, so people at least feel like they learned something and stay engaged. That's simply not good enough. You need complex assignments that really make you struggle a bit, so you engage with the material on a deeper level.

Thats a great way to put it, "high-write, low-read". I take a lot of notes and screenshots on calls, I may never need to go back and look but when I do look its always there. I use Onenote and the search is excellent in conjunction to the structure and tags I have build up around it. What works great is I have setup autohotkey to take a screenshot in the same area as the previous screenshot and insert it on my onenote page in context by hitting the F12 key. For me being visual with my notes is better than writing them.
Where it becomes hard is if the photos only exist on icloud. I have a good 60gb i cannot move off icloud. First party tools dont work. The download website apple provides for icloud data doesnt work.

I suggest reframing the question to, “how do I learn how to build container images?” Docker as a container runtime is dying fast and being replaced, so no need to learn the runtime.

The lasting contribution of Docker is the Dockerfile, learning that and the alternative ways to build an image is sufficient in 2022.

As someone who's taken notes with my laptop for my bachelor and master degree, these studies seem to miss a lot of the learning process.

For starters, it's not just "take notes" and leave it at that. Those notes are reviewed, modified, reorganized, corrected, and studied. It's so much easier to just carry a laptop with several files instead of a variety of notebooks. So much easier to search in files, to rewrite/reorganize... And, for a lot of people like me who have bad handwriting (that gets worse with fatigue), they're also so much easier to read. It's also far easier to take collaborative notes.

In other words, the relation effort-results can be far higher with laptops than with writing.
For someone considering this, to expound on I don't need any tech except…

• depending on your era the radios are easily replaceable with something that has aux in and bluetooth.

• towing insurance, the kind that actually pays for the tow, not the garbage my insurance includes which will pay part of a really expensive tow leaving you with more than you will find if you shop around.

• a flexible schedule.

• a greater than average tolerance for vehicular death.

I use a 1990s F250HD when I need a truck, love it, can't stop to put fuel in it without someone coming over to talk truck stories. It has more miles on it than the Artemis space capsule. But, it does strand me from time to time (water pump bearing, transmission, instant total brake failure on a downhill grade into a contested intersection with 4 tons of boat on the hitch…)

As much as I use it for its truck super power, I would be money ahead to sell it and just rent Home Depot/Menards truck for in town use and an Enterprise 3/4 ton for long distance towing. But, its "my truck", and I'll keep it until the next transmission or engine.
Regarding the lifetime of a site, it might be possible to submit requests to the Internet Archive or similar service whenever a site is added to a directory or a new post is found on it. That way too, it would be easier to see when a site is no longer active or when it turned into something else. Then, when it's deactivated, the web directory could just point to the archive first

>I always thought Actix-Web was the tried & true rust web framework.

That is mostly still true, but Axum is developed under the same organization as Tokio and integrates very well with that ecosystem, including Tower middleware. So in that sense it has a feeling of being "official" insofar as such a thing exists. The community is big enough for it to not die if the maintainer were to disappear tomorrow.

It's also a pretty nice framework and has better compile times than Actix-web. It is less an explosion of frameworks so much as a consolidation, if anything. Axum and Actix are the de-facto frontrunners.
Go as well seems to be pretty big nowadays.
Possible to do with one database, yes - Add JSON columns to your tables to hold tenant-specific metadata. Deal with it in your app layer.

But I'd re-think whether a single database is truly the right answer. What is driving you to that solution?

I think its a reality that by and large most developers are coupled to some CSS / Component framework that they aren't writing all the CSS from scratch, and most of these frameworks only (currently, when I last surveyed, say ~3 months ago) provide Flex based CSS utilities. Until recently this was particularly true of Bootstrap and Zurb Foundation which were arguably the most popular of the CSS frameworks.

I also think its general knowledge. Took a really long time for everyone to use Flexbox too. Even as late as 2016/2017 I saw engineers still reach for things like unsemantic[0] (the 960 Grid successor) and other utilities like it if they were doing custom layouts.

A short Git tutorial (Jan 2006)
I was on a different team, but my third-hand knowledge from 20 years ago (notably, before deep learning became mainstream, even at Google) was that Google crawl scheduling had a bunch of heuristics to guess at the update frequency of a given page. The probability that a page has changed since you last crawled it is an important factor in the expected utility of crawling it now.

As I mentioned, I expect that even more arcane heuristics, in the form of ML models, has largely or completely replaced the hand-written heuristics.
Certainly. In fact, prostate cancer is often best left undiagnosed.

As the CDC says on its page for prostate cancer screening[0]:

>Screening finds prostate cancer in some men who would never have had symptoms from their cancer in their lifetime. Treatment of men who would not have had symptoms or died from prostate cancer can cause them to have complications from treatment, but not benefit from treatment. This is called overdiagnosis.

>Prostate cancer is diagnosed with a prostate biopsy. A biopsy is when a small piece of tissue is removed from the prostate and looked at under a microscope to see if there are cancer cells. Older men are more likely to have a complication after a prostate biopsy.

> If we created intelligences and set them in competition with each other we may get something to evolve millions of years later.

Why millions of years? Do you agree or disagree that humans can develop technology faster than nature could evolve it on its own? It took maybe 70 years for computers to go from not existing, to matching humans on visual recognition tasks.

As you just acknowledged, it took nature at least billions of years to evolve humans. Is not focused technological development obviously orders of magnitude faster at evolving intelligence than nature? Does it not then follow that artificial general intelligence is a lot closer than an argument based on natural evolution might imply?

What exactly is not logical about this argument?

I think people seem them as dead because a small percentage of internet users engage with them, but people forget that billions more people have access to the internet now. Even though it's a smaller percentage, the actual number of users has still gone up generally in my experience.
Technically, yes in the US, but that does not mean that they can't still deny you claiming a modification did it. You could then take them to court but here's the rub there.

Consider, how much just a single lawyer cost per hour I don't think it would be worth it a lot of the times unless the entire car was basically destroyed or something very expensive has failed to have enough value to justify it. Otherwise the repair is gonna be a lot times in a similar ballpark cost wise (for most cars) as a law suite.

-Edit-
Moreover if the case is not decided quickly or settled it could also end up costing a lot more.

The tone of your writing suggests that maybe you feel like you're red pilling us or whatever but, yes, we all know that groups exist to lobby corporations to maintain policies that work toward the public good. Many groups exist that do this and each views "public good" through its own lens.

If someone were a fan of Elon Musk maybe they would feel upset that advertisers are being persuaded to not place their products next to poorly curated content. If so, I would tell them that there are many conservative organizations who are working to persuade advertisers to take the opposite position along with a small army of dedicated social media trolls who work tirelessly and without pay to spread the good news of "real free speech" under the watchful eye of Mr. Musk. So take solace in that.

I did that for long time, just one big meal in the evening, but over time I figured out that for me it works better to move it earlier (say noon) as it makes easier to fall asleep. Food before bed kinda does opposite for me, I stay longer than I want after.

It took a bunch of time to get used to longer breaks between meals but I can go for whole day without food without feeling all that much hunger. Dropping fast metabolizing foot also helped with that.

Only time where food makes me sleepy is if I had a lot after a period of average negative calorie intake, my body just goes "okay we sleep now" regardless of time of day.
Avatar 2: How much has CGI improved since 2009?
I just want to add a gigantic caveat: NOT FOR EVERYBODY.

I know a lot of people who insist writing by hand helps them. But I also know it's TERRIBLE for me personally.

The article claims:

> Writing by hand on paper creates a tactile, personalized experience... The complex experience of hand writing on paper contains a multitude of variable elements: the creativity of an individual’s written representation of language, the texture of the paper itself, the fine motor skills needed to translate thoughts into written language, the engagement of the physical senses... All of these complexities create a stronger memory of the information that is taken in during the note taking.

Well, no. For me, all of that is a bunch of irrelevant noise. I hate writing, it's so much slower and more awkward than typing (for me), I'm constantly concerning myself with whether I can keep up, whether I should start the next word on the same line or next line, whether it's clear enough for me to read later or if I should repeat the word, whether I need to slow down to be more legible but if that means I won't be able to keep up, whether I need to click the pencil again...

Writing requires me to use a significant amount of my brain for it, and this is taking away from my actual concentration on the content I'm trying to learn. It's not creating "stronger memories" for me, it's creating irrelevant distraction. (Whereas typing for me is effortless muscle memory that takes almost zero effort, so I can direct most of my concentration to the material itself.)

Again, I don't question that it helps some people. But presenting it as universal is just flat-out wrong.

One of Blow's critique of C++ is specifically that it's trying to be the everything language. Jai's goal is to be for video game development, and that's it. Not for embedded systems, not kernels, not drivers, not high performance computing, not operating systems. Just video games.

Also the more users are concentrated on a few instances the higher the likelihood they will suspend smaller instances. My fear is that at one point the large instances might switch from a blocklist approach to allow-listing only the instances they federate with. All of this without evil intent, just because they cannot keep up with moderating.
As someone that uses actix-web, what are the pros and cons of moving to Axum? I hear about it a lot these day. I know it integrates into the Tokio ecosystem well, including Tower, but I'm not sure what that concretely means for someone already using actix-web. When would I use Tower?
