I'm in the same boat, and it's true, even doctors don't get it. Gone through several pediatricians and got a blank stare back, mouth-agape.

Children are getting older, and thankfully, are no afflicted with the same allergy as their mother. But as time wears on, it is truly emotionally draining. The nuts held in a hermetically sealed container are compared to a caged viper - as they can easily cause life-threatening anaphylaxis for exactly 1 person in the household. We have to follow a super-clean process outside-and-inside to give an introduction, but you know what, kids don't always want to do what they're told. It sucks, and it's a problem more and more people will have in the future.
In the prior threads some posters were speculating “how do we know the Russians hit it, couldn’t the fuel have done it…” I don’t know how one can watch the jet’s trajectory on both passes and doubt it hit on the second.
Would reading without the cache (e.g. O_DIRECT) can be used to achieve a similar effect?
Yeah but you dont necessarily want to use those defaults. They strike me as kind of archaic.

For low resource use cases, you probably want Graal AOT above all else... which means G1GC or serial, I think.

Kind of a clickbait headline. Annoying.
Absolutely. The minimal mesh is just 3 triangles rendering a 3D texture that contains depth information that gets raytraced in a shader. Or you could send a single point vertex over and have a geometry shader generate the geometry vertices for you.

Or you could reduce the texture complexity to a 2D texture without raytracing if you defined the coin mathematically in the shader. Heck, you could get rid of the texture entirely and just do everything with math in the shader.

3D graphics used to require rigid hardware distinctions between vertices and textures and etc, but in modern pipelines it's pretty much all data and the programmer decides what to do with it.
Guys, if you expect to open the link and see statistical proof that the big tech layoff announcements in January were written with the help of ChatGTP, don't bother.

I would ask it to pretend a mathematician knows how to solve it, and is having a conversation with a novice programmer attempting to solve the problem, and pointing out mistakes and hints at each step, and gives examples of where it fails, until a proof is given that the program is correct.
Genuinely curious, not trying to criticize, am parent of littles myself.

You mentioned your wife is allergic but you're not, and talked about the difficulty you've had finding friends/family to expose them to it. I don't see mention of you being the one to expose them to it in a setting a safe distance away from your wife, and I guess I'm just curious! Hummus as a snack when you're at a park, or something?

Like I said, genuinely not trying to criticize, just another parent who's curious. I've been lucky to not have any allergy issues with my kiddos, so I guess I'm ignorant and just wondering what it's like and how complicated it could be.
>The other classes are just not relevant to the profession.

Which profession? Working at the digital factory where you write REST endpoints all day? Maybe. But then why even go to university?

Or are you talking about the kind of software engineering where you are working on problems that actually require some deep knowledge?

And either way, why not pursue the kind of profession where you earn a living and have an intrinsic interest in the subject matter?
Part of me is worried that we'll be giving kids a distorted perception of what AIs actually are - hell, the general adult public can't help but anthropomorphize them to a degree that I don't necessarily think is warranted.
That’s what I’m doing! I found myself amazed by the sheer terribleness of the html that Microsoft Word output. I managed to get it to write a script to clean up the files last night, but it took a surprising amount of finessing to avoid the myriad footguns involved in dealing with this godawful format.
Adding our horrific experience here too. Gave our baby a little bit of peanut powder at 7 months. About 2 hours later, vomiting like crazy, turned about as grey as a rain cloud, rushed to the ER blowing through stoplights.

We have never been so scared in our whole lives. Facing the very real loss of a child due to your own hand is a thing you never want to go through. I unreservedly have some good trauma from that experience. Took about a week to get back to normal, the dehydration was so bad and they could not get a vein for IV fluids.

The new CLI sub-command model helps here I think. Many commands by default now list out their sub-commands when not given one and each sub-command has it's own help output. This plus command line completion really does a good job at discoverablility IMO.

Oh and "memorise a seemingly meaningless sequence of text" makes no sense as all sequences of text are meaningless until we assign them meaning which is what you're doing learning a CLI.

You still need to run JavaScript functions to manipulate the DOM. "without ever touching JS/TS" seems misleading as that implies "no JavaScript code is executed".

Maybe it makes me sound like an elitist git, but I remember when the coding bootcamps started "unleashing massive productivity boosts" by promising to make people "full-stack engineers" in just a 6 weeks, and I still shudder to remember the code horrors I've seen as a result of that.

> Closures work exactly the same as they always do, but they're also something a lot of people struggle with and always have.

Its not normal for a render function to run all the time but the closures mentioned in it to be completely ignored. Thats completely the opposite of how most other APIs work in the language. Usually, a (constructor) function runs once, and the closures returned by it may get run multiple times. Completely ignoring the passed closures to hooks in many/most cases is something very specific to React.

I mean, if you wanted to go about usurping the enforcement of truth by eliminating actual bastions of truth, and you succeeded, then of course, in your success, everyone will think you're the last bastion of enforcing truth. After all, you, who are the last bastion of truth, are saying you are, so that proves it.

Which is why bastions of enforcing truth are just a really bad idea. If you want truth to flourish, you can't silo responsibility for it away in some benevolent elite. Critical thinking, media literacy, awareness of rhetoric, and the intersection of all of that with accounts of history have to be bog standard skills in the population.

It's unfortunate that most Americans are opposed to teaching those things. They don't like it when kids come home asking questions like "Why doesn't the Declaration of Independence say all men and women are created equal?" or "After a corpus callosotomy, is there still one soul in the body, or two, or two half-souls?" or "Why can't three people be married?" or "Why aren't you answering my questions?". Parents don't want their kids growing up to be free. They want them growing up to be copies of their parents.
A friend of mine had intermitent WiFi issues for a long time.
One WiFi they could just never even find, until we figured out the Intel WiFi driver for their WiFi-Chipset contained a bug causing 2ghz WiFis on channel 13 to not be visible.
It is a tiring process to identify issues like this in drivers. Really sucks when manufacturers just do not test their software.

Today's equivalent would be an IDE that you hit "new project" and type a few lines and draw a few boxes and you've got something up and running in the cloud. There's nothing like it as far as I know; there's an entire generation or more who have never seen programming work like that, and don't even envision it, it seems. Bold ambitions these days usually amount to a clone of a popular thing, with some kind of tweak that's interesting but not nearly interesting enough to get people to move.
Well I think that would guarantee your always hit disk for sure. The goal here is to be able to run the llama.cpp command repeatedly, possibly in shell scripts, and rely on the file caches being available so that the command loads instantly (we're talking like 1 second rather than 60 seconds to run, because disk is 100x slower).

Exposure need not come from only peanuts. Other compounds or organisms can have similar structures. My hypothesis for why allergy is more prevalent in the US mostly comes down to how clean everyone keeps their homes. Clean as in using clorox or other anti bacterial over all surface clean. Stuff like that are rarely done in Asian countries. But hey, I'm not a scientist so I am possibly wrong or missing something
Also worth considering is the taste difference. Having raised chickens and eaten the eggs, they taste worlds better than store bought. I found that intangible to be worth something in the economical calculation.

> Menin signaling diminished in aged mice, which correlates with systemic aging and cognitive deficits.

Goddamnit.
Maybe all the allergic infants died and didn't make it into the study.
Ok, I feel this conversation is not going anywhere. If I see a single example of an LLM generating new theories then I will immediately change my mind. I have yet to see this.

Most humans are not capable of inventing things, you're right, but humans in aggregate are. We are comparing LLMs to "humans" here, not to "a human". There are no examples of LLMs doing this. Maybe in a couple of years, who knows.
For article writing verification is quick, I don't need to worry about a "bug" in the generated article as I do with code. For art, verification is instant, a bad generation is rejected.

> A bunch of men from that day and age couldn't have figured out how to get out of that room? Or simply revolted and freaked out?

You're not thinking of this the right way. If a man had some health issue and needed to go to a hospital, or even if the men demanded to leave immediately, Morgan would have let them out. His locking the door was symbolic of his sense of urgency and determination to not leave the room without solving the crisis, something the others could tangibly see.
To be honest, I bought a new laptop when AX 5GHz releaded and installed my own Linux work setup. Boom wifi interl disconnects every 5-10min on 5Ghz. I had reconnect manually because do some issues with drivers. With the total pain I moved to windows setup. It's unbelievable that such a premium products breaks on major operating systems.

It is definitely a protein and I don't see much use for mRNA here. Clearly, there's nothing about the produced protein that marks it as safe just because it was produced in the body's own cells, otherwise the vaccine wouldn't generate a response.

So all this would do is introduce a lot of protein directly into serum. If someone was allergic, that would cause a reaction, and if not, it's not clear what it would do. It may not be a good idea for it to suddenly appear in the body without having been exposed through the GI tract.

Not a pretty good job, a better job, because, from (it's algerbraic based) imitation, differently from these "experts", it doesn't exclude expressing the same concepts in a different level of abstraction and authoring a coherent story with reasonable accurate analogies. Precisely all the things they omit.
> If VCs hadn't panicked at herd-mentality stampeded $40,000,000,000 out of the bank in a day, forcing it to sell 10 year treasuries at depressed market rates, it would have been fine.

Is there any (publicly viewable) analysis of the extent to which this is - or isn't - true?

It certainly would have survived longer, and for all I know maybe they would have been fine for the 6-7 (iirc) years remaining on those 10yr assets.

But at the same time, with money no longer as cheap as it had been for a long time, it's likely that had they not had the immediate run they would have seen money gradually leaving the bank as less new money gets put into VC and as their startup customers gradually spent down their investment lump sums without raising any new money. Would that gradual trickle out have been strong enough to push them under in the following months or years even without a bank run?

One thing to be careful about here, and I don't have any data or skin in the game here, is survivorship bias. It would be worth noting the difference in deaths from anaphylactic shock in very early childhood by country.

Yeah, I actually get more annoyed when "my own" political side does this. They take the worst possible example of the other side and make outragous article about them. Yet I know most people on the other side are actually good people, with good intentions, we just disagree on a few points.

Yet all I ever see in the media are ridiculous parodies of the other side. I've basically stopped almost all politics reading at this point. It's no better than gossip columns, and big brother level entertainment, it's just packaged for people who think they're more intelligent than those who watch big brother.

I haven't written in a while, but the first year I started blogging, I set a goal to write at least one article each month for a year. I reflected on it after the 12 months. The highlights:

- I got to the front page of HN a few times. Definitely a vanity thing, but it was fun!

- My posts on dynamic programming, which got a lot of traction, resulted in someone I knew reaching out to ask me to speak at a conference they organize. The conference didn't result in much professionally, but I love public speaking. It was just a great experience.

- I mentioned off-hand that I got to talk about DP, and that got me connected with someone who was able to create a video course on the topic. I learned a ton thanks to their guidance on things like how to organize smaller chunks of information that build up to a bigger course.

- Another post about mental health got me a chance to be interviewed on a podcast. I'm a huge podcast listener, so I was ecstatic about actually being on one!

With the confidence from the 12-month experiment, I then decided to write weekly about hiring in the tech industry, a topic I'm passionate about. I kept that up every week for over a year! What came out of that is I had a bunch of thoughts floating around in my head, and now I have them documented. Now if I want to bring up something about hiring, I probably already have an article I can just link instead of explaining it from scratch. The same actually applies to some topics on my personal blog.

EDITED: Regarding that last point, I've been setting up a Raspberry Pi after a few years. Having some notes documented has been invaluable for myself.
