The only real difference is that Verisign makes more money than omg.lol, hence they have more resources and incentives to not screw you over. That, of course, has incredible weight, and indeed I'd not trust omg.lol while I do trust Verisign.
That’s just the ‘there are no morals, just genes’ type of argument. Which assumes no free will (which is itself a supernatural concept under most definitions).

In the end this kind of comes down to a belief or not in free will, which is a faith based discussion since we can never ethically prove whether we have free will or not being our own observer.
Obviously 13 would optimize for luck.
Find something worthy to think for, that takes a lot of thinking.
Most nosedives happen at around 19-20 mph, I usually dont drive faster than 13-15.

Also depends on the weight, if you are tall&heavy, you should drive even slower.

Also nosedives happen if you just plain accelerate on flat ground with flat stance, I prefer to “carve” and alternate weight between sides of the wheel. That way you can decrease power required to move (because of decreased contact area and decreased rolling resistance)
How many of those failing 80% were working as hard as the Tarn brothers or Eric Barone? I'd be surprised if 1% of them were.

Luck is a big factor, but working hard is an often underrated component. Equating game development, or anything in life, as a lottery is a terrible mindset to be in and sets one up for failure and mediocrity.

Success lies somewhere between cutting one's own losses early, and unrelenting stubbornness.
It's luckier as well.
> And we had triple channel memory before, which eats of most of the novelty.

If reaching peak performance requires stuffing all the memory channels, then you still have choices that vary by a factor of 2 choices.

> Couldn't you have put one 32GB and one 16GB module in each channel?

It's a mini-itx board, so only 1 DIMM per channel. I also generally just prefer to put one dimm per channel in machines, because more loading on the memory bus often equals having to tune for less performance.
Merino wool everything. Kinda counter to what you might thing, merino wool underwear is amazing in the summer too =)

I rotate through 3 merino T-shirts alternating one every day. If they start to smell, you can just hang them out for the night and they'll be fresh as daisies again.

I think I wash them like once a month or two in a wash that has lanolin in it, which replenishes the natural fats in the fiber and makes it last longer.
Not quite. You really need to write things from scratch to reduce repitition. Things like custom DSL, code generation,... is not there for you in first place.

Domain understanding is just understanding, it's not related to HOW you do it effectively.
A sequence is not the same as a sum. Counting is not the same as denoting a sequence in a set.

A sequence implies communicating at least two and probably more concepts. Counting at best communicates two things, the amount and the aggregate type. A sequence communicates an order and the ordinal instances present and the type classifier and arguably the terminals of the sequence (both its length and denoted start and end or re-start) and for a cyclical sequence the fact it is a cycle. [Addition: If it's not 6to7 months out of 13 (lunar calendar) it even might have to indicate direction (left to right or right to left) and implicitly denotes summer and winter if not explicitly, the "best" hunting months being tied to seasons.].

Counting is not the same as marking "which"

These are quite complex abstractions. They go to order in time and "best" months to hunt in.

It's language.
Oh, I detest this as well. At Chik-Fil-A in the US, employees are basically required to say "my pleasure" in response to "thank you", and it comes off so artificial- maybe even culty. It's even worse when the employee in question is clearly in a bad mood or something. Either way, it kinda makes me avoid saying "thank you" at all; most of the time I'll try to come up with some other polite valediction to avoid making them say it.
What's a "basic Asian sauce"?

I'm not trying to be critical, but am genuinely curious as someone who's lived more than half the years since 1997 in Taiwan without hearing that term before.
A good example with cars : GM has been selling a 5K USD EV in China[0] for 5 years, yet in North America the Bolt EV (which I believe is the cheapest EV) starts at 27.5k USD. Sure, the 5K car is a death trap on wheels, but I doubt it's more dangerous than the cars we had 90 years ago.

‘Junk’ or ‘useless’ DNA is such silly nomenclature, because obviously we will learn more in the unlimited future, and we know so little about biology now that proclaiming anything useless is short-sighted to the max.

Monthly rents and mortgage payments are proportional to disposable incomes, pretty much by definition. People competitively bid up the prices in terms of what they can each afford.
Your engineering manager may not know:

* How to manage people.

I realize this is snarky in tone but in 2023 this still rings true for many people.

Much of management doesn't know anything about engineering. Many engineers don't know anything about managing people.

The worse the management the worse the politics.
There's a meaningful distinction in that state can't simply take your house away as long as you pay the taxes. Similarly, even with eminent domain you have to pay was considered a fair market price for what the government takes. This is the value of a property right.

Similarly, the course I found that governments can't impose a 100% or arbitrarily High tax on something simply to take it.
> From a smaller and smaller proportion of the population working in the agricultural field-- about 25-30% of the population in 1930 to about 10% now-- despite producing more calories per person and more meat, etc.

The graphs in the linked article show weekly working hours declining from 50H to 40H over that time frame.

Taking agricultural workplace participation from 10% to a hypothetical 1% isn't going to drop working hours from 40H to 10H.
> You write close sourced code, then a make an AI that learns from that code, shouldn't its output be licensed as well?

> Ask the above, and suddenly Microsoft will agree.

Does Microsoft actually agree? Many people have posted leaked/stolen Microsoft code (such as Windows, MS-DOS 6) to GitHub. Microsoft doesn't seem to make a very serious effort to stop it – sometimes they DMCA repos hosting it, but others have stayed up for ages. They could easily build some system to automatically detect and takedown leaks of their own code, but they haven't. Given this reality, if they trained GitHub Copilot on all public GitHub repos, it seems likely that its training included leaked Microsoft source code. If true, that means Microsoft doesn't actually have a problem with people using the outputs of an AI trained on their own closed source code.

Why is this the case?
Most of the cost of living is fundamentally related to housing and transportation, which are determined by land use policies. In this respect, people of the 1930s may be better off than us depending on the metrics.

If parents didn't have to work so many hours, I am extremely confident that many of them would choose to spend many of those freed hours with their kids.

Of course different people are different.

Either way, it's a huge problem that currently most of the people paid to take care of kids (very especially but not only pre-public-school age) are underpaid and overworked -- this does not lead to the kind of care for our collective kids that we would want.

Those paid to do childcare especially should be able to work no more hours than they can do while still being attentive and caring and fully invested, and be able to access continuing education and mentorship in how to raise kids, and still live a comfortable life.

That is currently not at all how it works in the USA.

RAID and snapshots aren't a backup either: lightning strikes/house fires/earthquakes/floods kill all the disks together.

A backup is a restorable copy in some location not sharing much fate with the primary location. Right now you might consider "all copies in one city" to have too much fate in common, but "all copies in one country" to be acceptable, or "all copies on Earth".
An even better challenge: try to draw the least circle-like thing. It is surprisingly hard!
The turnover for engineers tends to be lower than for traders at citadel and at a lot of quant firms.

Additionally, the turnover for citadel is not evenly distributed across teams. Certain teams and orgs have a lot more turnover than others. Some teams are made up of people with <=2 YOE at company while others are made up of people with >=15 YOE at company.
One thing not mentioned is that productivity increases in one area free up some of those people to do entirely new jobs that did not previously exist, just because society couldn't afford to allocate people to those jobs.

Not many doctors and dentists and so forth 1000 years ago, because the agricultural base couldn't support it. It took 95% of people being farmers to produce enough food for themselves and the remaining 5% of the others. Now 5% of people can produce enough food for the other 95%, which allows them to be doctors and programmers and whatnot.

Or, in SF, you'll get an item near the bottom of your receipt labeled "SF Mandate". What's the mandate? Employers have to pay for employee health care. Why isn't it rolled in to the prices? Partly passive aggressive sniping at city hall, partly to keep the menu prices low. The "SF Mandate" portion is taxable, though, so it really is just them adding a hidden fee.

I suspect shrinking all the components equally would preserve some of the effect, because my intuition without spending too much time is that there are scaling effects that would work that way.

But, I’m mostly saying that its not inherently the case that a small convection oven would have the advantages of an air fryer, and, a major reason for the name “air fryer” for the product categoriy is because countertop convection ovens without those advantages already existed, because they were optimized for other goals, so just calling them “countertop convection ovens” would have sent the wrong message to buyers familiar with the existing category.
Obviously the extremes are stupid, but hey...

Think about it - that works just as well if you take it to the extreme as "rebuild the entire city denser" - once you knock down the entire city, that land is gonna be worth a lot less.

And the demolition approach has the advantage of costing less than rebuilding everything after you demo it!

It's also a good way to force demand to move around, right?! Hell, if you demolished Manhattan and everyone there moved to other cities in the US, I wonder if the average rent and/or mortgage payments of the displaced people would go down...

The tubes are called earth tubes or ground-earth heat exchangers. If you look for geothermal heating you'll end up getting the wrong information, mostly for ground source heat pumps. The earth tubes aren't strictly speaking geothermal though, they're massive thermal reservoirs that you're taping into. You extract heat and then putting it back later either from day-night cycles or seasonal cycles.
I had a 4K Dell monitor as my main, a lower res monitor on one side, and a 16:10 in portrait mode on the other side, all serving two computers. The computer that used DisplayPort for the 4K monitor had the issue you mention; when I swapped source from one computer to the other my open windows all jumped around to the side monitors. Apparently it's the DisplayPort driver that's the problem; HDMI, DVI, and VGA don't behave this way, but DisplayPort does.

I've replaced the 4K Dell and side monitor with a big curved 8K Dell, which has a built-in KVM. My keyboard, mouse, headset, external speaker bar, and webcam are all plugged into the monitor, and they all swap from one PC to the other with a keyboard shortcut that also switches the monitor source. It's a lot handier. However, if I manually switch my portrait monitor to the PC that uses DisplayPort, my windows will still get moved to it when I switch everything else to the other PC. So I just don't switch that portrait monitor very often anymore. Using the keyboard shortcut has made my lazy and I don't bother with the last monitor unless I really need it.
You're probably right that a college is not the fastest or cheapest way for you to learn but the world works in funny ways. You might find a degree opens more doors than it should.

That said there are ways to get those qualifications at your own pace and much cheaper. Find a way to speed run a degree. It'll be worth it.
They don't have to pay because they own it or governments have entered into long-term binding contracts to supply it at a fixed cost.

People might not like those agreements in retrospect, but that is not grounds to avoid ownership or contracts in the US legal system.
Survivor bias comes up every time this topic is mentioned, but it really has less explanatory power than most people think. If you meet a man born in 1932 who is still running marathons and doesn't need glasses, it's probably luck, although he might have some valuable diet tips to share. If you meet a man born in 1732 running the same marathon, it's time to rule out luck, and start collecting blood samples because he might actually be some kind of vampire.

Furthermore, the "survivor bias" idea, as an attempt to explain the longevity of Roman concrete as a building material, implies that the buildings that survived were stronger than the ones that did not, so we're just seeing the upper end of structural strength. But that's not even necessarily the case. Many more were lost because they were deliberately demolished for other reasons (honoring the wrong gods, etc). And it's not like these buildings only survived in ideal environments for preservation; as the article mentions, they have survived in many different climates across a vast empire, standing in seawater, through earthquakes, and so on.
Trunk is an a16z funded dev tools startup, redefining software development at scale. We aim to flatten the lost productivity curve that software projects suffer as they grow in scale and complexity.

The wording for this is hilariously bad. “Poverty” isn’t the real driver of homelessness so long as you define poverty in a way that it’s unrelated to your ability to shelter yourself!

This sort of tired, pointless game of “if you define words differently, sentences have different meanings!” is so oddly popular on here, especially when it comes to housing.

I personally go by the dictionary definition of poverty:

1
a
: the state of one who lacks a usual or socially acceptable amount of money or material possessions

If the landlords in your city use some scummy software (1) to provide cover for them deciding that they should help themselves to 110% of your paycheck and that results in your inability to live indoors, you’re functionally impoverished.

I also don't enjoy coming back to large sed expressions I wrote previously but I'm starting to write them in a way that makes that much easier. I'm on my phone so this will probably be syntactically wrong but hopefully the gist is evident. Basically, load the expression from a commented 'file':

sed ./target --file=<(cat <<-
SED_EXPR | grep -v -E '^\s*#'
# do a string replacement
s#target#replacement#g

# then do something else

>dissolving property rights and take whatever water or land they want without compensation...

Not that I disagree... but this is roughly describes how the US was established.
So eminent domain these rights, and pay the owner back for the two sacks of turnips that their great-great-great-grandfather paid for them back in the 19th century, with whatever interest that would have accrued.

A century and a half of free water use, plus interest on whatever the original payment was seems like a fair deal to me.

There is no reason that we should be paying 'fair market price', when that price is artificially inflated by non-market participants hoarding all the water that they don't have to pay for... For themselves.
Erasure Coding versus Tail Latency
Water resources are the ultimate control vector. Its not parties, or states, its power. It is very real how little is being done, and scapegoats are everywhere.
1) if your device plays 4k, then what are you transcoding from? That's going to be the determining factor, not the 4k output stream. Certainly in a home situation, that's likely to be direct stream. If your source files are 8K or higher, I wouldn't consider you a normal home user.

2) quicksync on a 10g or newer cpu is benchmarked at 4-6 4k simultaneous streams, but a lot depends on the details: container format in particular matters a lot, and so do your transcode options. Color matching for example, is only ever done on CPU. And IIRC AV1 and VP9 are not supported by quicksync (or older discrete GPUs).

That said, it's completely correct that you should measure all advice against your actual output device capabilities and source quality.
