I think you misunderstand sampling theory. Sampling theory allows the sampling and recreation of ALL information, not just the 44100 samples, but datapoints in between. Sorry about the potential bad formatting, it's from a pdf.

"By contrast, the waveform reconstruction
process – digital-to-analogue conversion – is not
so simple. In an ideal world it would be achieved
by generating an impulse of appropriate amplitude
for each sampling point and passing the train of
regularly spaced impulses through an ideal low-pass
filter with its passband upper edge set to half the
sampling rate. The impulse response of such a filter
is the sinc function, so each impulse would generate
a sinc waveform of the necessary amplitude, and
the train of sinc functions would sum to recreate
the original waveform.

This is illustrated in Fig 2, which shows six
successive sinc functions of different amplitude
and their sum (the black trace). Each sinc function
contributes nothing to the summed signal amplitude
at other sampling points, but does contribute to the
waveform between the sampling points. It’s a common
misunderstanding of sampling to suppose that the
waveform between sampling points is unknowable
but that is not true – provided that the input signal
is bandlimited and sampled at least twice as fast
as its highest component frequency, as required
by the Shannon sampling process. In that case
the waveform between sampling points can be
reconstructed unambiguously.
Importantly, the wave shape depends not just on the value of nearby
samples but, ultimately, on the pattern of samples
throughout the sampled signal" [1]

Well, no. The JS package ecosystem is a slightly lesser mess than the Python ecosystem but only slightly so. I think it's a bad example to base any redesign off of. At least the author brought up .NET which mostly has its shit together when it comes to builds and packaging.
And in the United States at least, the IRA contains tax incentives for all of that. The audit, the added insulation, the heat pump, and even more efficient appliances.
It's plainly obvious to me that ChatGPT is engaging in some form of thought. Perhaps not human thought, but thought nonetheless.
I got quoted 16 grand for the same 24k/3 zone system in the Seattle area by the guys who install thru COSTCO. I ordered the hardware myself for $4300, bought about $300 worth of tools, and installed it in one long weekend. It’s really not that difficult. Basic electric installation, some special technique and tools needed for the plumbing (University of Youtube can help), pressure test, pull vacuum, open the valves and enjoy.

Off to one side, but riffing on the WEC thing..

I grew up with the Whole Earth Catalog, and it was a fantastic repository of knowledge but wierdly, quite hard to use to find the "tools for everyman" it claimed to be: the one thing it wasn't was well organized. What sticks in the mind was the tone, and one really weird article about using a swiss army knife to kill warts. (it works, sometimes: if you irritate a wart enough you can switch on the body's defensive network. Thats why the aspirin cream method works)

Victor Papanek "Design for the real world" is in many ways, better. Less entertaining, less anarchic, but I used some of the ideas to get furniture made over 25 years ago I still use (the plywood single-cut slotted shelves which stack)

Or Eric Sloane's "Reverence for wood" which is lyrical but surprisingly direct about tools and how they work.
Excellent comment. Also, for note, the longer the total fertility rate is below replacement rate, the more that trajectory is “locked in” due to the fertility death spiral (shrinking pool of women of childbearing age as a function of time). There is no turning back for China, they did not reach economic escape velocity due to mismanaged demographic and economic central planning policy.
A 5K used vehicle might need a similar 6k repair at some nearby point.

But a 6k repair to get a new engine/transmission is almost a new car (utility wise) - you know that for the next 100k miles you're probably set w.r.t. drivetrain.

It makes sense to me?
I still have a TAB book called "Writing BASIC Adventure Programs for the TRS-80" by Frank Dacosta that I bought for $10 in 1985 or so. The code in there is kind of a nightmare, but at the time, I was just a kid, soaking it up.

Edit: ooh, I found a PDF: https://colorcomputerarchive.com/repo/Documents/Books/Writin...
Ok that’s a lot of fun. Not suspended btw
Yes, but at what baud?
Well, not for ML we don't. Python killed it all off. If you plan to work on core algorithms or finetuning existing models there is nowhere to run.
You might have trouble finding good builders for such a small job. Depends on the market I suppose. Also you'll run in to restrictions on some land, some areas will not let you build really small places that are out of proportion to the neighbourhood. Depends how fancy you're talking.

But doing a really nice small space is a great strategy for saving money. You can use nice materials since you dont have a lot. Doing a lot of quality built-ins (cabinetry and the like) also will make a huge difference -- and is a necessity when going small.
I find the whole idea utterly repulsive. While there is no point saying this to people who are really into it, maybe someone will come to the comments wondering if they are the only one who is a hard no for AI assisted journaling.

That has been my statement as well.

I've seen that terminology used on US websites, it took me a while to get my head around. In Australia it would just be called ducted reverse cycle. In the vast majority of cases it would be "ducted ductless" I guess: outside unit connects via refrigerant lines to a heat exchanger and fan in the roof cavity, when then distributes the heated/cooled air to rooms via conventional ducting.
Hard work is a means to an end. People want to work hard when their efforts are likely to have some meaningful result—higher pay or a promotion, if talking about a job; a good grade or admission to some institution or program, if talking about education; having a positive impact on someone else's life. Judging by the tweet author's bio, I assume he's focusing on employees and jobs.

Despite what founders and CEOs might think, most employees have no interest in working towards their "vision", particularly if that requires a large sacrifice of personal time and energy in exchange for barely enough money to survive and nothing else of any importance. Probably an unpopular opinion to express on this site, but it is what it is.

Don't expect people to "work hard" for you, especially if you're not going the extra mile yourself to compensate and acknowledge said hard work.
Ok it made through the spam filter.

Maybe my theory of X-rays seeing through my place of residence is a bit far fetched. Haven't seen a doctor and perhaps I don't have ionized DNA.

Here are some other ways I'm being stalked:

My laptop running Debian, a few months back, crashed for zero reason when I was searching on wikipedia the topic CPU watchdog. At the part where they mention that these devices are used to reboot an OS if a program crashes. Have since changed OS.

Before this I was running Windows 10 (yikes) and upon updating the OS in my iPhone my computer crashed. I believe I was updating to iOS 16. My theory is that the phone had a rootkit extracting data from the computer.

Cops will go live on tiktok whenever I'm browsing it. Screw this app.

I can really go on forever about how they are using Stasi tactics to cause paranoia in me. Again IDK why. This post will probably be removed if it isn't by the time I finish writing this comment on my post.

China got old before it got rich.

The trouble is that the desktop metaphor depends on your programs being analogous to physical tools. A text editor is a notepad, a directory is a manila folder, a contacts app is a Rolodex. What iconic tool represents Twitter, or "app store," or "password manager," or "detect the song that's playing right now"? The metaphor breaks down and your icons become mere abstract shapes. If no other meaning is relevant, an eye-catchingly stylized version of the first letter of the service name at least hints at what this is.
This is what a builder would do in North America, they're the general contractor and will generally budget for you, manage the project and the trades. They'll ensure quality and be your point of contact. Typically where I'm at they charge 15% of the total time and materials of the build.
> Someone who understands the trade and the codes and will check in on the building site daily and will make sure everything is being done correctly. And if it’s not, will stop work and put everyone in their place. I frankly have no idea what the term for that is in America ...

Shadow builder.
One could just as easily argue that modern humans evolved about about 200,000 years ago, and something that existed for approx 0.0005% of human existence is obviously advenced.

We struggled along for 200,000 years without it, so I'd hardly call it an incredible failure that more people don't learn it[1].

[1] The usual disclaimers apply - im not anti-math, and I think more people should learn math, science, etc...
Yeah I was actually thinking that we may see API maintainers publish a lot more sample code with lots of different scenarios for AI to train on.

Similar to how JavaScript libs publish a Typescript type def file for people using Typescript.
We run at 230V, although these days with solar panels all over the neighbourhood the voltage is slowly going up to 240.

Only recently, with the introduction of climate goals and ditching gas, houses are getting heavier connections. Electric ovens are typically 16A, although induction cooking stoves are getting 32A or 3phases.

The 22kW car charger is by far the most power hungry device and needs 3x32A.

Have you verified this information? Other comments in this thread have and are saying that changing any phone number connected to iCloud requires a password.
I work in e-commerce/retail. So it’s things like:
- storybook stories to cover all cases of ui configuration
- tooling to create reports/import/export of different csv formats
- api endpoints, validating incoming data, instrumentation for monitoring
- every action and error gets logged as an event for auditing

Overall the part of the codebase that is not some kind of scaffolding is like, computing taxes on an order item or something like that. The rest is just shuffling data around and ensuring it is tracked and validated properly.

It’s tempting to be clever and devise a killer tool that allows you to write a single data declaration and derive all the rest but that rarely survives an encounter with the real world.
Agreed here, there's so much scope and specialization in a large company, it takes time to make impact that often goes beyond 1-2 years. I recall in my last FAANG at Apple, the opportunities for high impact projects are often left up for the individuals to find. You're hired to do X, but nothing stops you from creating some really highly useful internal library, side projects, pitching ideas to management (they will often get rejected by sometimes accepted), etc...

And honestly, I was averaging maybe 5 hours of real work a week in some stretches. Ofcourse crunch time happens, and it is team dependent, but one has to take control of their experiences in any company or situation instead of relying on others to make their expectations happen.
It only becomes mold by sitting and growing. If the A/C dries it after use, it doesn't have any time to grow.

Yes, over time - any amount of moisture will produce some mold. But it will be negligible.

Why doesn't Netflix create shows that are more episodic? Like each episode is a self-contained story, like Star Trek (not the recent ones, they are barely Trek). And produce 20-30 episodes each season. Even if a few stories are not great, it still doesn't hurt the show much. People will continue to watch, and re-watch. It is also easier to start. I have been avoiding 1899, just because it feels so tedious to follow one over-arching story over 8 hours.
Time to throw in a mention for the homes of Lloyd Kahn. https://www.shelterpub.com/

There's plenty to discuss about houses (if you've got time on your hands), but give me a pretty good home. Green? Where I grew up you could drive around in the woods and see old abandoned log houses turning back into land and a few rocks, all on their own. A worthy goal to work towards.

Lloyd's still kicking and blogging. https://www.lloydkahn.com/
Prob a few reasons

1. Cuts down on low-effort applications

2. Gives full functionality for a large company

Same reasons Google and other have their own torturous processes

First you have to find out who is really desperate to work for a company

And a lot of big companies are GREAT places to work for certain types of people

Most people, prob

And you might not even have to do an application unless and until you go to convert to full time

So you have to fill out the app, but you're already hired so it's worth it
I haven’t had too many issues. I must admit I use the api and copilot a lot.

1000 square feet is so small there isn't much to do and only so many ways to design it. IMHO you could easily find a small bungalow of that size, have the interior ripped out and taken down to studs, then totally rebuilt to exactly the layout you want and still be way under the cost of commissioning an architect to design something from scratch.

I am sorry this happened to your brother.

I think the information you added makes the majority of the discussion in this thread irrelevant. If the thieves phished the password in a separate attack and then used that to perform iCloud account hijacking - then that's a fairly expected outcome that is not unusual in the industry. Having both the password and the phone basically proves full ownership.

I empathize with your frustration, but realistically speaking, the outcome very likely would have been the same if he used any other phone from a major tech company.
I recommend a look at https://healthyhomebuilders.com/ and reading their book, in particular. They explicitly use closed-cell foam and appear to use ZIP-system outer sheathing. The methods they advocate seem in agreement with high-performance building, with extra attention to indoor health. They claim the latter can be done with reasonable extra cost. The book is very informative. I found it at the library when I went specifically to look for Pretty Good House.

Almost like it doesn't matter how good your academics are in a communist dictatorship :) If only we had an example of one such communist dictatorship collapsing despite all their genius planners..
Nobody calls it that (ducted ductless), it would just be called a ducted heat pump. The refrigerant lines just run to a central air handler where the ducts start in the house, instead of the air handlers that mount on the walls.
Right, that's true, I was thinking about it wrong.

Still, not much is going to hit a window on average. So maybe 90% efficient.
Household income is not wages per person. Getting married doubles average household income for those people. Getting a job and hiring a nanny, maid, and gardener creates fictional household income, because homemaking is assigned $0 value by the Fed.
In the context of Rust, a bool is a 1-byte value with 2 valid representations (0x00 and 0x01) and 254 invalid representations (disregarding uninit bytes). The compiler can make use of these invalid representations for niche optimizations: For instance, an Option<bool> (i.e., std::optional<bool>) takes only 1 byte instead of 2, since the compiler can repurpose the invalid byte 0x03 to represent the None (i.e., std::nullopt) state of the Option. The compiler generally tries to perform these niche optimizations for all enums, although it's only 100% guaranteed to happen in certain cases.
Some good, basic guidelines here. However a lot is going to depend on your local market and what the trades are familiar with. In smaller markets trying to push exotic techniques, technology or materials is going to be a recipe for suffering. The trades will not do a good job and/or you'll pay a crap ton for it.
They’re not wrong.
From the ERV/HRV (Energy Recovery Ventilation / Heat Recovery Ventilation) wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_recovery_ventilation#Ty... :

> During the warmer seasons, an ERV system pre-cools and dehumidifies; During cooler seasons the system humidifies and pre-heats.[1] An ERV system helps HVAC design meet ventilation and energy standards (e.g., ASHRAE), improves indoor air quality and reduces total HVAC equipment capacity, thereby reducing energy consumption.

> ERV systems enable an HVAC system to maintain a 40-50% indoor relative humidity, essentially in all conditions. ERV's must use power for a blower to overcome the pressure drop in the system, hence incurring a slight energy demand.

In Jan 2023, the ERV wikipedia article has a 'Table of Energy recovery devices by Types of transfer supported': Total and Sensible :

> [ Total & Sensible transfer: Rotary enthalpy wheel, Fixed Plate ]

> [ Sensible transfer only: Heat pipe, Run around coil, Thermosiphon, Twin Towers ]

Latent heat: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_heat :

> In contrast to latent heat, sensible heat is energy transferred as heat, with a resultant temperature change in a body.

Sensible heat: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensible_heat

There's a broader Category:Energy_recovery page which includes heat pumps. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Energy_recovery

Are heat pumps more efficient than ERVs? Do heat pumps handle relative humidify in the same way as ERVs?:
I mean, it's opt-in. If you really want to crap your pants, in today's Go, you can import C and call malloc and free, then import unsafe and make pointers into the void. The point of memory safe programming languages is NOT that they entirely disallow all unsafe operations, it's that the language has a proper model for memory safety. In Rust, unsafe code needs to be in unsafe blocks. In Go, unsafe code is only possible by importing unsafe or C.

Adding more unsafe tools to Go or Rust do not diminish their safety guarantees. In fact, when Go and Rust add new unsafe features, they generally do so in a fashion that is much more constrained and has better defined edges than traditional methods, so that it's easier to use them correctly and easier to detect misuses. For example, the borrow checker still runs in Rust unsafe blocks; you still have to circumvent the borrow checker even once you're in unsafe. As for this arena package, it seems to have a few safety mechanisms, and hell, I don't even think it's off the table that it could be made entirely memory safe. This is especially true since memory safe does not mean "free of runtime errors", so all that is needed is to be able to detect the error conditions without allowing potentially undefined behavior to occur first.

Programming language experiments like Go's new arena package are good; they allow exploring what you can do to improve old concepts.
