By that logic, pretty much 99% of all humans would be "sad stratospherically socially inept stupid fuckers". People don't like being insulted or demeaned, and I would wager a guess that you would be pretty reluctant to accept even the best of advice if it was preceded by a tirade of petty insults.

If you failed to realize this simple rule of social interaction, and you're older than 14, then you probably shouldn't be calling other people socially inept. Glass houses and all that.
Is there maybe some kind of link between the body and the brain, perhaps? /s
Yeah by the same logic we die every night when we sleep.
I had anxiety for years, coming and going unpredictably. Not being worried -about- something realistic, just a very jittery feeling paired with brain fog, concentration problems and mood swings. Eventually I was diagnosed with Celiac disease and I almost never feel that way any longer, except when I'm accidentally exposed to gluten.
People who doe this regularly will get a NEXUS card, which makes the process much easier. Bringing alcohol back is totally fine in any quantity if I recall correctly, you just have to declare it and maybe pay some tax either direction. Fruits/veggies are more restricted I believe actually.
It's worth noting that Virginia was unusual in that it didn't really offer any specific concessions to Amazon. Most jurisdictions have some sort of standard incentive program for business investment (https://www.vedp.org/incentives is I believe the relevant stuff here), and compared to other cities, the Arlington bid was extremely stingy (note that it's not one of the examples in your article).

My belief is that the VA site was preselected before the HQ2 process begin, and the process was primarily an attempt to extract as much concessions as possible by creating a very public competition.
Exactly. If the CEO goes to prison if the company commits X crime, the CEO has a strong incentive to ensure the business is not doing that.

If the CEO's only concern is shareholder profit, crime usually pays pretty well.
I don't know. Nicotine can produce that intense relaxation. But why take a toxin for what you can get with just your body and some intelligent practices? All upside. Except it takes effort! :) But the longer term effects are way better for yoga than nicotine. Those two paths diverge pretty quickly by a lot I think.
Most importantly: best wishes. I'm sure you've been through a looooot. I hope there are brighter days ahead.

Does your current valve situation cause an elevated heart rate, presumably because your heart is is compensating for not pumping as efficiently as it should?

I had a different issue and I'm extremely unqualified to have an opinion here, but based on my personal experience I'd be willing to put down a pretty decent sum of money on a bet that lowering your heart rate will reduce your anxiety directly.

(And then you'll of course have lower stress in general I should think, because you won't be worrying about the upcoming valve replacement and all the uncertainly surrounding a major operation. But that part is pretty clear, I would think)

Good luck!
Sears in Canada was mostly a clothing store. 20+ years ago Sears did have more variety—tools and other products—but it was still fundamentally a clothing store. In my memory, Sears was nearly identical to the Hudson's Bay Company (The Bay), and my local mall had both.

Whereas Canadian Tire is first and foremost a tire store and an auto mechanic shop. The other half of the store is tools, sporting goods, household and kitchen goods, gardening tools and supplies, and a small selection of what a hardware store would have (plumbing, electrical, lighting). Canadian Tire also owns Mark's Work Wear House (now just "Mark's") that sells work clothes, and sometimes the stores are combined, but otherwise Canadian Tire doesn't sell clothes beyond some hunting and fishing gear. There's almost no overlap with Sears.

Home Depot in Canada is fundamentally the same as in the US. Home Depot and Canadian Tire are very much competitors for some things.
I looked it up, and we are both correct. There is a premium subsidy based on the silver plan but that applies to any plan and a deductibles/OOP pocket subsidy that only applies to the silver plan. They have different qualification levels. It seems the deductibles level has a pretty low income cutoff, and the premium subsidy has changed a lot over COVID (to the point where the income limit was removed, at least temporarily).
I have GERD.

Prior to properly getting diagnosed I went through a bunch of tests and episodes because the sensations manifested as heart-attack-like symptoms. I can tell you the anxiety produced was, ... palpable.
> Gosling: For me as a language designer, which I don't really count myself as these days, what "simple" really ended up meaning was could I expect J. Random Developer to hold the spec in his head. That definition says that, for instance, Java isn't -- and in fact a lot of these languages end up with a lot of corner cases, things that nobody really understands. Quiz any C developer about unsigned, and pretty soon you discover that almost no C developers actually understand what goes on with unsigned, what unsigned arithmetic is. Things like that made C complex. The language part of Java is, I think, pretty simple. The libraries you have to look up.[0]

So we can have this super powerful, extensible string interpolation system using never-before-seen syntax as a language feature, not a standard library extension, but not unsigned integers?

I'll echo what other commenters have said: This looks powerful but ugly. I'll add to it by pointing out that "powerful but ugly" is what we've already got. So we gain the ability to move format arguments inline with the string contents if we're willing to use the `STR."\{}"` syntax? That seems like a lateral move.

Whole-house 12/24VDC power wiring has been a thing for at least 50 years, specifically intended for lighting. It's never proven widely popular, but it's certainly a realistic option. Probably more so in new construction than retrofitting into existing buildings, though.

US grid mix produces about 0.855 pounds of CO2 per kWh[0]. So 552,000 kWh 452,640 pounds of CO2 which is 205.31 metric tons. At a cost of $40 per tonne[1] of CO2 that works out to $8,212.40 which is still small compared to the capital cost of the cards.

Yes, but the arguments of that era always seemed to revolve around minutiae like the package manager, or default filesysem, or choice of default desktop.
> It's not a database at all in that it doesn't contain facts, but rather it is a collection of statistics about language that can always make up something to say and sometimes gets things factually right.

Statistics about language are both facts themselves and, to the extent the usage of language in the training data contains text describing facts, also representations of those underlying facts.

It is a very different way of storing an accessing data than, say, an RDBMS, but it definitely is a thing which stores and provides access to a body of data.

Over the 9 languages mentioned: 5 languages (inc. JVM ones like groovy and kotlin) are using `$`, 1 language (swift) is using `\`.

`\` is a pain to type on many keyboard layouts -- actually most but the US one.
It seemed to me that `$` would have been a much more "conventional" choice.

This really makes me sad. It looks like the choice was made on purpose to be different.
Yes! And if you have problems with anxiety, it may be helpful to simulate your vagus nerve to help calm your body down. Taking cold showers, massaging your ear, eating probiotics are all things that I've personally been doing and I feel a general improvement of my own anxious feelings. It's such an easy/accessible way to manage anxiety; I would think it should be more mainstream.
FWIW I've heard of the movie but have never seen it (nor am I familiar with the plot details, only that it involves an AI), but after this thread I should go and watch it.

Nice learning guide. On basic level Python is easy to learn, if already familiar with anything programming related. However, acquiring a practical idiom for Python code is not that trivial, in my experience. There are so many ways of expressing the same intent in Python, also the lack of explicit types eventually bites you where least expected. Also the whole domain of the double-underscore object-functions is like an "easter egg" left for someone to figure out.

I wish the learning guides early on centered on builing an "engineered" application. Covering the approaches to structring the application, user input processing, error handling, logging, dependencies, packaging etc. Such that the learners won't be left alone with a simple knowledge of syntax and basic operations.

Well, likely there are such guides already.
Aside that we are in agreement that laws should not be gendered if we want equality (not examining whether wolf-whistling should be a hate-crime - imho it’s ridiculous it is in any context) since we live in reality and there ARE gendered laws I’ll reply to the second part of your comment.

It does exactly make the point, you are somehow trying to define what a woman is, and asking if the definition only encompasses adult human females or underage as well.

DuckDB is "column oriented" vs "row oriented". I have found it 10x* faster for queries on data your size compared to SQLite or MySQL or Postgres. The added advantage of it being a single file is very nice as well.

Yes, but it's also not farfetched when you think about who owns most of the talent and what's needed to peel that talent away. It's not as absurd as it was e.g when waymo was comping employees so heavily on milestones that they just straight-up quit because they made enough to retire.

I was coincidentally thinking about this last night, that I remember growing up there would be live television events based on Egyptian discoveries, etc on network television. They don't even really do that on History or Discovery now. I still remember some of those segments, one even sent a camera down a shaft on live TV and they ran into a wooden block or something similar and couldn't go any further. Those were the days.
Yeah, I've been looking at those TI calculators for a few years, hoping to dabble in some Z80 assembly programming for nostalgia.

I've also been eyeing their TI-92, 92II, 92Plus, and Voyage 200 series of calculators. They use the 68000 processor and have qwerty keyboards. It looks like there is a C compiler for it (http://tigcc.ticalc.org/), so it ought to be possible to do some interesting things, like this Fuzix OS, or a FORTH, LISP or Lua interpreter, or a terminal program over a serial link to a battery-powered ESP8266/ESP32 to the internet over WiFi.

You don't go in cold, you go in warm. Building a product in an industry you aren't familiar with is very difficult and even if you can get companies to talk to you, you're not going to be well positioned to truly understand what they're saying. You need to start with the relationships (either by developing them, or hiring people who already have these relationships). Pick any startup in your target industry and look at who they've hired: they'll be filled with industry stalwarts who provide the domain knowledge and relationships required to understand what's needed. If you want to sell into life sciences, time to hire some experienced VPs from your competitors.

Airbyte isn't a great example for you because businesses using ELT tools are radically different to pharmaceutical companies: pharmaceutical companies are working in a very slow moving industry that requires a great deal of careful consideration. As people in technology, we get caught up in the belief that because we can build incredible masterpieces that we're owed the time and expertise of others that we need to realise these incredible masterpieces... We're not. You have to approach this from a much more humble position, you're going cap in hand, you're not a hero, you're begging for scraps.

It's interesting that this feature is essentially a clone of how string interpolation has been made extensible in Scala. However, the JEP only mentions Scala once.... in the form of an example which has been made strangely more complex than it has to be (it would be much shorter if they had used the s interpolator instead of the f interpolator).

The one major difference is that, because Scala has macros and typeclasses, it can turn malformed interpolations for things like JSON or SQL into compile-time errors instead of runtime errors.
Duh. Caffeine mimics serotonin. Smoking boosts niacinamide (aka nicotinamide, vitamin B3) signalling.

The two main paths for tryptophan metabolism are [majority] niacinamide/kynurenine synthesis and [minority] serotonin synthesis.

Heavy niacinamide/kynurenine demand diverts tryptophan from serotonin production, leads to chronically low serotonin.
Well, right now we think performance comes from software plus hardware.

I think going forward, performance will come from software, hardware and training.

Chances are that ChatGPT in the current configuration (i.e. same NN architecture and number of parameters) run on the current hardware would be much more powerful if you could continue training it with 10 times more data than you used so far.

Separate from that, I think you could also increase tremendously ChatGPT's power if you could pair it with some regular old-fashioned computer. For example, if you ask ChatGPT to write some python code, it produces code that is surprisingly close to correct. But why not give ChatGPT a separate module or sandbox where it can actually run and test that code?

I'm pretty sure that even if SCO had all the rights to Unix that it thought it did [0], IBM would have found some way to make the problem go away even if involved buying SCO or effectively paying it protection money.

[0] Which remains one of the most inexplicable aspects of the whole case to this day whether Novell pulled a fast one and/or SCO's lawyering was just incompetent.

I hear you. As I'm sure you saw, the per-person fee is only for active team accounts; individuals/hobbyists still only pay for compute, and inactive teams don't pay anything.

The team charge assigns a nominal value to the productivity boost Render gives to teams, without increasing compute prices (which stayed the same even with the change). Existing single-seat teams also got a 6-month grace period for team fees.

While our change means we're not the cheapest option on the market, we believe the DX and features we have (and will continue to add) makes Render an incredibly good deal, both now and over the long term.
