What is the most important information I should know about Wegovy™?

Wegovy™ may cause serious side effects, including:
Possible thyroid tumors, including cancer. Tell your healthcare provider if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing, or shortness of breath. These may be symptoms of thyroid cancer. In studies with rodents, Wegovy™ and medicines that work like Wegovy™ caused thyroid tumors, including thyroid cancer. It is not known if Wegovy™ will cause thyroid tumors or a type of thyroid cancer called medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) in people.

He's like many other amazing technical people: very good with their technical skills which they believe validate their own ego to be arrogant over the ones they consider to be lesser due to diminished prowess in the same set of skills.

It's an abhorrently sad state of living a life in my view. But they can make money and technical feats that not many others can furthering validating their inflated ego.
> 2.3.1 The number of paragraphs with more than a passing reference to the USA, China or India in any capacity should not exceed more than 50% of the article.
Nope. Also if you want to share the same experiences as your friends and colleagues, such as joining for Friday drinks, going with them on holidays, going to concerts and other events together.

Of course it doesn't mean you should do all that in lieu of saving, but it's nonsense to claim there are never any social costs to living a lower or higher lifestyle than your friends.
Most were there due to H1Bs probably.
I think what many people outside North America fail to grasp is the size of north America.

To give you an idea:

I live just outside Toronto (Ontario, Canada) and if i want to drive east to the next province (Quebec) it will take me 4 hours to cover the 450 KM. If i want to go to the next province to the west (Manitoba) It will take me 20 hours to cover the 2,000 KM. So to cut across Ontario you are looking at something like 2,450 KM

This is just my province of Ontario. The other provinces are not as large, but the country is vast when looking at Europe.

Using google maps, i can drive from the south (footbridge) to the north (ChargePlace,Scotland) and this ~ 1,200 KM?

In the case of my very simple order, one item is being shipped from 120KM away?

How often do you order something simple and one of the distribution hubs is 120KM away from you? There is a massive 1 million square foot hub a few blocks away but i guess it isnt big enough to hold what i wanted?

I hope this provides some context for you.
Focus and figure out what to do without the crutch on capitalism that charity is these days. People can continue donating as they have been, but the focus shouldn’t be on fully participating head first in one of the primary reasons we need so much charity —- capitalism (or whatever any one wants to call the current neoliberal status quo).
It doesn't seem to me that jettisoning the employees responsible for regulatory compliance is a sound management strategy.
It's mostly profit. You have the upfront cost of equipment but then you're just paying for consumables like fuel. Its basically a manual labor job of converting your time and effort into money.

I use an iPad Pro 12.9 inch and a Magic Keyboard as my primary dev machine and I love it. I have large bare metal servers I can connect to where I run vim+tmux using Termius. I also have a desktop, MacBook Pro, and a Thinkpad so I actively choose to use the iPad. The beauty of the iPad is I can tote it around in a small bag everywhere, it has cellular, and when I’m not deving I can pull it off and watch movies, play games, draw using the best tablet out there.

My whole setup can also be used with emacs. I have an emacs config as well and have tested using Eglot etc - basically the same setup as what I have in Vim.

The real power move here is to stick to a terminal based workflow. GUIs lock you down to a machine and a platform. Using a terminal based editor, tmux, etc. allows you to be instantly portable, infinitely flexible, and allows you to work anywhere.

SSH is also the other power tool. I mean SSH is actually insane. If you understand SSH agent forwarding, port forwarding, proxy jumping, you can actually be anywhere with any keys you want, proxy dev as a prod environment, use services on any computer anywhere you want, it’s absolutely incredible what you can do with SSH.

Or some of these framework will finally mature in the next decade and solve remaining UX issues.

This will make branded, OS-specific UI frameworks mostly irrelevant.

There will be less of platform lock-in. Users will be free to migrate between platforms, as most applications will be avaliable on multiple platforms by default. UI/UX will become independent of a platform's brand. This will lead to increased use of alternative OSes among casual users.
You obtain the game somehow?
My point is that we’re probably no longer in what future historians will consider the scientific era. “Believe in science” would be an incoherent statement to Newton.
Try SHARK on your AMD GPUs for SD. Follow the setup here: https://github.com/nod-ai/SHARK/tree/main/shark/examples/sha....

It works with Pytorch -> torch-mlir -> MLIR / IREE -> vulkan. Works on both Windows and Linux. And has a simple gradio web UI https://github.com/nod-ai/SHARK/tree/main/web but we plan to enable better UI integrations very soon.

A few months ago I ordered a dongle from Amazon to attach a floppy drive to a modern computer via USB. For some reason this weird, niche little thing was eligible for Amazon Essentials same day delivery. Apparently every Amazon warehouse has a dusty box of these things in the corner that they're still trying to unload?
I'm not bagging on Chinese manufacturing in general, they build the worlds stuff, including super high quality+value items. Yet throwaway brands peddling junk that wouldn't have realistically made it onto the shelves of a big box store is a real problem on Amazon's marketplace, and other similar ones.
I believe it's a combination of the fact that most of these models are basically 'research dumps' primarily targeting other researchers and given this they are assuming a level of familiarity with related tools/libraries. So it's up to interested people in the community to take it the last mile/block/whatever to make it easy to use, address specific use cases etc. for use by a less academic/technical audience.
There's being correct, then there's being pedantic.

Does it need to be solved? There’s usually just a person or two handling ordering and they usually know the business better than software is going to.
It's not coupled with Docker. Docker is purely one suggested way of running it - it's a classic Django app so running it directly on Ubuntu should work the same as any other Django application.

UK scientists covered up Covid lab leak theory despite evidence for it
I could imagine some young hackers/CS grads would see Twitter2 as an opportunity to come in, work hard, launch product that succeeds, and use that to parlay to a more sustainable career in the future. Such people will tolerate a fair amount of abuse (similar to grad school) because the expectation is that it will pay off long-term.
Some ideas I had:

Launching boats as a service. I pick up your boat, launch it and all you have to do is get in. Comes with a matching extraction and cleaning service.

Online dating management service. Have a process takes photos, creates the profile and then a recurring subscription to have a person do messaging for you and arrange dates. Hire college gals to generate the initial leads.

A service to tack all the local kids classes and events, keep track of sign up dates and such. Have a super premium service that signs people up automatically when the spots open.

Extra Garbage pickup as a service. While everyone is required to have basic garbage service you can easily undercut the garbage company for anything non standard or extra.

Rental service for high quality tools. Let people rent festool, sawstop, and other high end items.
Highly recommend downloading draw anything on iOS, sd1.4 is available and it is quite fun!

A real keyboard is absolutely necessary for real work, as you say. I think what makes the iPad Pro attractive is that it can have a real, decent keyboard (and trackpad) that is optional depending on your momentary need.

Unless one flies business class, there is often not enough space between seats to comfortably use a traditional laptop. With a tablet, you can at least do something.

The other big thing is that iPad Pros have very high screen brightness. For working outside it's a big benefit, as most portable laptops don't get that bright. The M2 Air and the M* Pros do, but you can't just pull the screen off when you only need a screen.

The best of both worlds, imo, is to have an M2 Air and an iPad Pro. When you're at a desk to do real work, you get the full laptop benefit plus the big iPad Pro as a second monitor. When you're on the daily outing, you take either or depending on your expected need. But you do now have a $5000 setup, which is more than many people would like to spend for a little more flexibility.

If Apple hadn't done such a great job with the M* Air, it would be easier for me to consider some other vendors' 180 degree folding laptops. But the silence of my Air and the amazing battery life are hard to give up.
Most of Hancock's claims aren't really provable by evidence, or there hasn't been much research done to produce it. He's essentially saying "Isn't this curious? Scientists should look into it.", and "What if this alternative explanation is true?".

This is unlike other "proper" conspiracy theories that claim to know the facts, and present made-up evidence to back up their claims, while ignoring any actual scientific proof that works against them.

Critics can ridicule his claim that an advanced ice-age civilization existed all they want (and there are good counter arguments that do just that[1]), but it's certainly curious that advanced structures were built by what modern history tells us should've been hunter-gatherer groups, millennia before the birth of the oldest civilizations we know about. This is worth thinking about, but more importantly, scientifically researching, so that we can have a better understanding of our past and ancestors.

The more Hancock is ignored, ridiculed and labeled as a crackpot, the more it feels like the scientific community doesn't want to research this for whatever reason, thus proving some of his points.

Pacman works when updating all packages simultaneously. However when updating only a requested package it can break by failing to pull in other packages which need to be updated simultaneously. For instance, pacman can break pacman and sudo by updating OpenSSL to a newer version than the currently installed version of pacman and sudo expect.
Because perfect is the enemy of good. A global carbon tax is my dream as well, that won't ever stop me to defend the government trying to tax incredibly wasteful industries as a step towards that. It's not black-and-white.
Problem is Mullvad is too reputable. I find everything is blocked as their IPs are very well known and on all lists.

What we see is likely the attempt to squeeze even more juice from advertising over which Google virtually have a monopoly. Google is trying to continue its exponential growth while relying on selling advertisements. The market had already been saturated and optimised to crazy levels. Smart thing would be to expand to other sources of revenue, but other projects inside Google fail. As they are failing to compete internally for resources against that crazily optimised source of revenue.

It is doubtful that Google can overcome that internally. Perhaps regulators should break up the monopoly in advertisement and search.
I agree with cutting negative effects. But I disagree with the unfairness against cryptocurrency. Tax or ban emissions universally, instead.
One possibility is that Acrobat Reader is more forgiving of poorly-formed PDFs, as I’ve generally heard is the case, and that by allowing documents that don’t meet the (huge, probably also poorly-formed) standard they open themselves up to more security risks.

Yes. If a tough reporter really nails him down with a tough interview, it could be a shining moment for journalism. If they fawn over him, as some have suggested of recent coverage, then it will be a failure. The NYT should keep him, dare him to show up, and then do their jobs: Hold his feet to the fire.

Agreed. I could see this being driven by EleutherAI in the background who are very, say, strict when it comes to "alignment".

A lot of these appear to be cases of flat-out fraud or dubious research practices. These all get muddled together under the heading of "replication crisis" but I do think they're a bit of a different beast.
What kind of features are you talking about here?

This doesn't match my experience from the last few years. SQLite in WAL mode is extremely capable.

The only thing I really miss from PostgreSQL is that PostgreSQL has more built-in functions for things like date handling - but SQLite custom functions are very easy to register when you need them.

Exactly! I might have expected him to be an anti-humanist because he made such a point of loving humanity. Perhaps he does but he dislikes people intently based on his actions. I think all of these things are true simultaneously:
- There were many engineers at Twitter building overly complex things. Twitter was overdue for a classic re-org.
- There are many individuals on the Twitter platform that were enabling the cancel culture and impacting free speech.
- There are many trolls on the platform, enabled by many bots, impacting narratives and in some cases influencing politics.
- Elon's narrative of Twitter's content moderation skewing liberal is false. Facts consistently have a liberal bias, despite a few notable exceptions.
- Twitter content moderation was not wrong. In order to have a free society and free speech, we must be intolerant of intolerance (Karl Popper).
- Elon seems personally oligopolistic, anti-democracy, and a throwback to the gilded age. He reminds me of Henry Ford, there is a clear lack of empathy here.
- While I will watch SpaceX with great enthusiasm, I will not be buying a Tesla.

A lot this business is penny wise dollar foolish. So it might be hard to get them cover your expenses.
This is something that would be right up my alley but I am under the impression that government contracts (in the US at least) are not easy to land because the barrier to entry is high and the competition is fierce. The process is so bureaucratic that most of the business effort is landing the contract in the first place, producing the thing under contract is almost an afterthought in comparison, and that part is often sub-contracted out. This is part of the reason we hear stories about millions of dollars and months of effort being spent on 30% of a CRUD website that a talented full-stack developer could have whipped out in under a week.

And in the IT space, your competition is companies like Lockheed Martin... Although you might have a leg up if your company is veteran-, woman-, or minority owned, see Offices of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization.
I sat down with someone who said their family was starving because they couldn't get enough food from their snap benefits. We went through how much they had and put together a healthy basic menu (rice, beans, etc.) that would make sure no one was starving and they still had about 50% left over to use for buying whatever nice to haves they wanted. I suggested the look for items that were on sale to add to their basic menu. We had even factored in buying pots and pans.

They looked at what we had put together and said, "My kids won't eat that."

While they definitely had financial difficulties to overcome, it wasn't a lack of resources that was their biggest barrier.
Right--but that's half the problem!

You can't tear people apart to figure out why they're depressed. Not only will no one volunteer to be torn apart, but it won't tell you much anyway: depression (probably) isn' a property of a single protein or cell. In a sense, this is actually my day job: I work with animals where we can dig down to the level of a single neuron or sometimes even a single molecule....but it's still different enough that you still need to go back to intact, living people to see if your proposed treatment works.

When I saw "Prerequisites: Something that can run Docker/OCI images" in the documentation, my interpretation was that containers are needed. It also says "You need to run at least two copies of the Docker image". Maybe you want to change the wording a bit.

I would also collaborate on writing a setup script for Takahe then!

I really like to write a setup script instead of following manual installation guides. So for every software I try, my first step is to write a script that turns a fresh Debian installation into a running instance. (MicroBlogPub needs Python 3.10 which is not in Debian stable, so I would use Ubuntu)

First snow of the season occurred our first night. My memory is that the walls never felt cold. We started a fire using that granite cylinder fireplace. You pack it with about 12 logs, light it and then shut the door tightly. It burns the wood efficiently over several hours and then continues to radiate ten+ hours of heat into the house. Overall: very comfortable.

I think the beams were 6" of solid wood.

2-- Alpine woods are incredible. The table top in that picture was unfinished. The instructions of the house say that if you spill something, you just wipe it off with a damp rag.

I was terrified of eating fondue or jam-and-bread with my kids there, thinking we would mess up his table. Fact is: we did have spaghetti and spilled sauce, and the damp rag treatment didn't leave any stains.

Zumthor also seems to have a big family and there is evidence his grandchildren operate like normal kids in that place.

My son gave me a wooden box carved from alpine wood, and the maker intentionally kept it unfinished. The maker told me that the oils in the alpine wood provide a natural protection; +1 yr later and that box sits in our kitchen holding salt. It has developed a natural patina despite lots of mid-sautee grabs, opens, and pinches.

TLDR: like cedar, ipe, and other special woods, I think the wood used to build this house will last a long time in that natural environment.
>“Believe in science” would be an incoherent statement to Newton.

It wouldn't, because Newton considered himself primarily an alchemist and philosopher, and viewed all of his "scientific" endeavors as a means to the end of understanding God through understanding Creation.
I imagine that Elon Musk could just buy back the debt at $7.8 Billion, wiping out the $13 Billion debt (and associated $1.3 Billion/year interest rate charges). 60-cents per dollar of debt is quite cheap.

TSLA shareholders probably won't be happy (since Elon would have to probably sell $7.8 Billion of Tesla shares for this to work out). But when you've got hundreds-of-billions of TSLA shares, it makes sense to leverage them in a way that's beneficial to you...
