I've just started using obsidian, but only for a subset of my work, to work on individual documents with a very rigid structure. Do you have any tips on taking obsidian to the next level, using it as an integrated tool rather than just a one-off editor?
Twitter 1.0 colluded with US Govt and FBI to push preferred narrative censoring anything they deemed unfit; see Twitter files. FB too was complicit in this practice. All US entities are collaborating with the government to push govt propaganda, TikTok doesn't listen to the US Govt, which is the core problem.
I remember when they did call themselves that. I can't parse your second sentence.

In theory, either the price will go up so much that people use less steel or other goods will stop being produced to free up more energy for steel production so that it stays level. Possibly some combination. If governments make steel production harder there aren't a lot of other ways the story would end. It is impossible for the process to be less efficient without prices moving enough to change behaviour. Something has to give.
> (...) brought to the USA, melted in an arc furnace, and suddenly it's "made in USA"!

I don't think this assertion makes sense. Making steel is way more than getting iron and mixing it up with some carbon. You need special manufacturing processes to get specific alloys and treatments to get the properties and reliability you expect. Recycling and importing steel is like importing a raw material.

Your comment reads like "This let's them do things like claim burger made in USA when in fact the burger buns were made with corn from Ukraine and meat from Argentina".

>> My biggest daily struggle is with those who want to verbally discuss every single issue, or worse, chat over informal DMs.

That's interesting - I tend to have mixed feeling about this. Sometimes I wish I had all communication done in writting.

But the reality is that as a dev and seminconsultant I work in 10 different domains at the same time and there is no way for me to have enough time to encode all my clients knowledge in structured writing - the only way for my situation to be bearable is to encode this into code and working applications. And the only way to quickly gather knowledge and and have feedback loop on it is to encode it as working applications. Because lets face it even if I was master communicator and writer most clients areny and never will be. And most areny paing for writing text but for providing solutions.

So I'm in this dissonance here where I would love to be better writer but the reality is that its not really that useful in my situation. Ok, and now I feel depressed, thank goodness I just this moment went into confectionery.
> We cannot have a decade of 0% interest rates and expect no consequences

Correct.
Yesterday I just used it for the first time instead of checking the Postgres docs for some obscure JSON operators. I just asked it this:

"I have a postgres database with a json column with the following structure: [1, 2, 4, 4]. How do I query the database in SQL to retrieve all rows where the array in the json column contains the number 4?"

And it gave me a wrong answer at first (worked for strings only, not integers), but quickly corrected itself after I pointed out the mistake. I had working, testable code faster than if I had checked SO or browsed the Postgres docs.
I'm using it to generate cover letters for job applications. I hate writing cover letters because it feels so insincere, so if I'm going to bullshit, may as well let an AI bullshit for me.

I don't use it for research or answering questions because it hallucinates far too much. Until these chat bots can reliably provide sources and quote those sources verbatim, it simply doesn't save me any time when I have to fact check everything it tells me. Same reason I don't trust these AIs to generate summaries, they often get little details wrong.

However, I've found it quite useful for "discovery", finding things I wasn't aware of before and may not show up using a search engine. Whether that be a library/package, a law/statute, products/brands (though monetization will inevitably ruin this), etc. I've found both Chatgpt and Bard will provide nice bulleted lists with a short description of each item, and I can do my own research from there.

Everyone I know already knows this, because ChatGPT makes such obvious mistakes in between brilliant takes. Hell, my grandmother knows that this 'ai' thing does something called 'hallucinate' because it was on the news a few times.
The steep curve of Remix is really beautiful. One possible way of interpreting it is that it is coasting of React, and isn't starting from as low a starting point as Svelte and Solid have to. Just the mere fact that Solid is showing a hockey stick curve, and that it is so different from React is what has me convinced.

That's a slightly roundabout way of saying that Arm built the best microprocessor design for the fast growing mobile market. A design that was a factor in Nokia getting to No. 1 in the handset market.

The 'happened' on power consumption is true on day 1 in 1985, but the Arm team continued to keep power consumption low and added features, such as Thumb, that won Nokia and others over.

Shameless self plug for more on this stage of the Arm story:

My colleague was telling me that the general health care system is not very good (unable to get instant attention), so it's typical to pay an extra premium for private health insurance also. He is well compensated, and I suspect he is on the top end of that marginal tax bracket.
This was on the first release of ChatGPT so I guess GPT-3.5. Pretty much like WASDx describes. In my case it was even more meta because I was writing a script that was making ChatGPT API calls. It’s an I/O network call so it was fairly easy to rewrite as a multithreaded generator loop, which it got right on the first go. Nice speedup of about 10X, I imagine right about up to the API rate limit.

Flour is clearly the winner vs. peanut butter when comparing price per calories. At Walmart.com it is $2.12 for a 5lb (2.26kg) bag which is about 8250 calories. But yeah, processing that into bread (home energy cost and time cost) is tough to calculate and probably depends on your situation.

Still there are in-between options - pasta for instance is more bang for your buck than peanut butter and is much easier to prep yourself than bread.
I've worked in various companies as a developer and my worst experiences were where access to code is restricted, but BA's create these esoteric tickets with about 3 words in description...

GPT-4 got much better results on many benchmarks than PaLM, Google's largest published model [1]. PaLM itself is probably quite a bit better than LamDa in several tasks, according to a chart and a couple of tables here: https://arxiv.org/abs/2204.02311

It's unclear that Google currently has an internal LLM as good as GPT-4. If they do, they are keeping quiet about it, which seems quite unlikely given the repercussion.

Yes, but the statement you make above is in general for staking. Not staking as offered by Coinbase. My comment above clarifies that the specific details of how the staking is implemented matter, at least with respect to Security's law.

My non-lawyer interpretation is that, indeed, centralized staking offerings like Coinbase seem to fit the Howey test criteria and are at risk of being deemed a security offering. But not all staking is.
What alternative would you recommend to their security suite of tools? Note that the alternative has to "just work", be efficient, require minimal maintenance, and be free or close-to free to use (< $100/mo). Otherwise, it's just not competitive.

> And “you can eventually move to the Midwest” isn’t really a sales point (I’ve been told this by multiple managers/directors).

Why is it not? I have a number of friends that have done this: work in SF, make (literal) millions of dollars over the course of ~10 years, move to the Midwest with their new/growing family — and a nest egg it might take ~30 years to accumulate anywhere else. They seem pretty happy about it.

Well, not sure process hell was eradicated, although it ironically moved to the very people who were supposed to be freed of it!

What has changed is that the business expects to be able to push new features through quickly with faster releases. In the past, it took a long time for the business to get changes made.

Part of that I think was that highly technical departments had more control over their output and schedule. It was all mysterious to everyone else. If the business wanted to do something, there would be meetings and documents and analysis and approval decisions. It was hard, it was complex.

As technology has become commoditised and less mysterious I think the power of the techical wizards has waned. So the business likes the idea they can just ask for stuff and it gets released fairly quickly and with much less ceremony and negotiation from their perspective.
Someone else mentioned that prices in general would go up, this is correct but there is also another factor. Steel is the primary material used to build manufacturing equipment and there aren't any good replacements when you need something big, heavy and cheap enough to finance that can be used to mass produce other goods. This equipment has to be durable, have well known properties and you need to be able to make it using existing machine tools and processes. So if steel becomes much more expensive not only will everything become a lot more expensive, you will also negatively impact the creation of new businesses and innovation in manufacturing.

This is one of the major second order effects that always springs to mind when people just float the idea of increasing the cost of some material that produces CO2 as a byproduct as if just pulling a lever or adding a tax will solve the problem. The economy is a giant Jenga tower where all of the lower blocks are fossil fuel based processes. We sit way up on top where we can't see the bottom of the tower and we think "wow look at all this new stuff we've made, we sure are great! We should get rid of all that old junk so we can build more new stuff up here!" and maybe you can knock out a few of the pieces on the bottom without causing a disaster but eventually if you take out enough of them the whole thing will come crashing down.

If you want to build a carbon free economy then you need to start a new tower and you need to solve all of the fundamental problems in a new way with new technology that doesn't use fossil fuels and it needs to be as cheap or cheaper than what we can do now. That's a monumental task. And no, you can't knock over the first tower before starting the new one unless you want billions of people to die, most likely including you as well.

I'm responding to your claim. The onus is on you to substantiate it.

Aside from the low-hassle relative simplicity being the fundamental subject of the submitted article, there's no reason I suppose.

There is no double-standard aside from the aforementioned handicap that benefits you, and you're moving the goalposts, besides. You specifically accused me of being in a "bias-bubble". There is no purer form of irony.
I guess the bit I was referring to as somewhat novel is when he referred to memory being combined with compute rather than separate - As 'compute in memory' or distributed memory and compute architectures, are recent enough. separate memory and compute still domiante, but with HBM, stacked cache, and GPUs using significantly more on die memory were now seeing some quite different architectures realized

The comments on here are extremely myopic, as the meme “copyright bad” is firmly lodged in the minds of thousands or millions of people who don’t rely on it to make a living.

It can’t imagine a more practical or metaphysical violation of copyright than to literally copy the pages of a book and then distribute copies of this book to however many people you feel like.

I guess you could violate the rights more by taking the author’s name off of it.

This mad ideology is destructive and blind. No one has a right to the product of another’s labor. A dysfunctional system doesn’t change the ethics here.
It isn't often one person or a group like the "Traitorous Eight" [1] go on to make entire industries and new platforms. They did it though and that included Gordon Moore and Robert Noyce. Moore and Noyce later split from that and made NM Electronics which became Intel.

This was back when engineers/product people ran things and competition via skill not just funding was the driving force. Imagine a new company today fully controlled by the engineers/creatives/product people, it happens but not as often. We need to get back to that.

The Moore's Law is an interesting case study in creating a term/law that supersedes you and inspires your self interest but also the interest of the industry and innovation. The root of Moore's Law was making more products and cheaper, allowing more to use computing.[2]

> Prior to establishing Intel, Moore and Noyce participated in the founding of Fairchild Semiconductor, where they played central roles in the first commercial production of diffused silicon transistors and later the world’s first commercially viable integrated circuits. The two had previously worked together under William Shockley, the co-inventor of the transistor and founder of Shockley Semiconductor, which was the first semiconductor company established in what would become Silicon Valley. Upon striking out on their own, Moore and Noyce hired future Intel CEO Andy Grove as the third employee, and the three of them built Intel into one of the world’s great companies. Together they became known as the “Intel Trinity,” and their legacy continues today.

> In addition to Moore’s seminal role in founding two of the world’s pioneering technology companies, he famously forecast in 1965 that the number of transistors on an integrated circuit would double every year – a prediction that came to be known as Moore’s Law.

> "All I was trying to do was get that message across, that by putting more and more stuff on a chip we were going to make all electronics cheaper," Moore said in a 2008 interview.

> With his 1965 prediction proven correct, in 1975 Moore revised his estimate to the doubling of transistors on an integrated circuit every two years for the next 10 years. Regardless, the idea of chip technology growing at an exponential rate, continually making electronics faster, smaller and cheaper, became the driving force behind the semiconductor industry and paved the way for the ubiquitous use of chips in millions of everyday products.

When he did become successful he also gave back.

Moore gave us more. Then when he made it he gave even more.

> During his lifetime, Moore also dedicated his focus and energy to philanthropy, particularly environmental conservation, science and patient care improvements. Along with his wife of 72 years, he established the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, which has donated more than $5.1 billion to charitable causes since its founding in 2000. [2]

I pasted some headers (some of them very long, in multiple chunks) and asked the bot to write me a summary of what the API does, and what could be used to make it better. Answer were spot on. Free documentation! If you also paste the source, it can give you a documentation for a particular function as well. Same for rather complex Makefiles.

Otherwise I do like others, I use it as a quick stack overflow for uncommon APIs (to me). Or completely random questions, knowing the answer might be dicey.
