About to upgrade my amd64 system.

I already upgraded my very old i386 (R51e), no issues and very easy. I am getting some mystery core dumps, will look at that later. I suspect the new "Permissions (RWX, MAP_STACK, etc.) on address space regions". but only guessing :) On the i386 I am planning on using a new "old" disk since the old disk is getting tight. Then I will worry about the dumps after an install.

edit: Fully updated to 7.3 on amd64, no issues all working perfect. Again easy no no manual configs for me.

For me, green vegetables seem to trigger nervousness and sleeplessness, when I still ate them, I'd wake up at night and think someone is in my room to murder me. I'd get up and wander through my flat, go pee, and sometimes it took like 3-10 Minutes until the feeling of somebody being there would go away.

Been on an elimination diet and trying around for 5 years now, there seem to be some pointers towards SIBO, but I haven't managed to fast long enough to do the test yet.

When I eat the wrong thing, it usually takes 3-4 days for any effects to show. Would make sense if it's fermentation or rot in the intestines that's triggering this. Hope you'll get well soon!
There are only 5, Alaska, New Hampshire, Montana, Delaware, and Oregon. And the only one with a decent size city and airport is Oregon, but even then, it does not have significant international flights (though close enough to San Francisco and Seattle airports).

I guess New Hampshire has an Apple Store 45min from Boston airport, and Delaware has one about the same time from Philadelphia airport.
Oh, I know that! I'm familar with CPAP's and BiPAPs and ventilators, etc. I was a paramedic before I became an engineer. My point was just that, within the context of ventilators, I learned just how little I actually knew about the field of pulmonology and how many things I didn't think would be an issue are actually quite dangerous. What little I picked up would be enough to give me pause about the confident statement made in the comment I responded to about DIY CPAPs.

2 months is still very very early in the tolerance cycle. Here is how to keep tolerence low :
- NEVER increase dosage. This means you should also never take an extra dose or extra portion of a dose to power through a long night/day
- Take tolerance breaks when you, such as weekends etc. If you are a student, quit entirely over the summer if possible.
- Don't take it with other stimulants like coffee or psuedophedrine, nicotine
- Maintain healthy relationships with other dopamine-inducing activities such as sex, video games, food, etc.
- Get good sleep. 8 square hours a night, every night.
- Excercise.

Oh also don't switch up the ROA - stick to oral. don't sniff it or boof it.

I would also encourage you to be honest with yourself - do you need it? Could you make lifestyle changes that resolve the issues that you are currently using dexedrine to resolve? if so, go that route. Amphetamines are very hard on your mind and your body. You will notice that you are a different person in a year.

This is coming from someone who has been around the block with amphetamines. Trust me, it can get really, really fucking dark if you let it. I don't think it has to be that way, but you really need to be honest with yourself about your ability to handle it.

I once had a contract to work on a brutal legacy Microsoft C++ codebase, everything COM, ton of macros enforcing inane conventions. I worked at 20% productivity. Billed the hours all the same, not my problem. Whenever I felt over it for the day, I closed my laptop and walked away.
Why would Microsoft attack Firefox specifically and not Chrome? Chrome is the bigger threat to their business. Firefox has become almost too small to care about - little revenue, small browser market share.

> The repl workflow is so different from other languages that you really need to see people code in clojure live to understand it.

Just wanted to add a channel to this that I recently came across with a few videos about different REPL use. I also suggest seeing how other people use it, I keep picking up a few new tricks here and there by doing so.

While this is flatout insane, it does not speak toward crypto's security directly. If you personally decide that you want a company to hold your crypto that's your decision and a poor one at that. You have the ability to create your own wallet and hold your funds in it securely. Some exchanges like Coinbase even have wallet apps so the transition is super easy to make.

I mean FTX had over 300 million dollars moved out of company funds, without company authorization, by parties unknown, and with insufficient monitoring to even know it happened until third parties let them know. So kind of depends on your definition of hacked, I guess.
> 1. It's functional!

As someone who writes more Python than Clojure these days, Python's limited lambdas are a regular source of frustration. Additionally, Clojure's first-class data structures are sorely missed in Python.

> 2. REPL-driven development!

The huge drawback IMHO that rarely gets discussed is the ability to change modules in Python's interactive interpreter (Clojure's analog is the namespace). For example, in the context of a web app, adding a new view in some views module, then swapping to the routes module and adding the adding a new route to wire up the view. Additionally, there's no built-in way to connect to the interpreter, as manually typing in a REPL is not the usual flow. To me this makes Python's interpreter unusable for anything but toy examples.

> 3. Macros!

Clojure is less macro-dependent than other lisps, but in most projects I use, there are one or two that really help clean things up. If you look to other modern languages that have macros (for example, Rust), I think the same idea applies.
I've run IRC bots on several VPS services, and connectivity on DO was by far the most unreliable. It's crazy how often they would randomly drop out, even under no load.
Also the engine and transmission computers may go into "learn" mode if they are cold-starting having had no power for a while, and so you may have stuff like a wandering idle speed for a little while.
So how did they replicate, and what was the selection process?
Eh their documentation is pretty clear about all this stuff and all the new directives released a couple years back (like the PK and index stuff) clearly guide people towards using indexed queries and not scans: https://docs.amplify.aws/cli/graphql/data-modeling/

A lot of this is on the author IMO
As always, it depends. If I bought the best (or even pretty good) model tool for every hobby I start, I'd be broke. Not every tool needs to be the best.
outside of the political analogy. this seems like a symmetry argument, which can have applications like realizing tic tac toe can be reduce by using rotational and mirror symmetry. I'm sure math people have better names but you get the point.
> immediately, there were more bugs needing more fixing

Thing about releasing things publicly for the first time is: even if you've rigorously tested everything and ironed out bugs, users of the service will report bugs you never even thought of checking for. They will be running weird browser configs, do weird things with your service, and otherwise use it in ways you never dreamed of, surfacing obscure sharp edges in your code. This is why, upon public release you have to be ready to patch quickly.

Keep in mind the difference between practice and rehearsal is like night and day.

Plus not every musician actually practices, sometimes daily sometimes not, and often no scales at all.

Some get to the point of performing every day in a way that obviates the need for actual practice, but also might engage in intense rehearsal in preparation for major milestone performances.

Very interested to see responses from different developers.

SQL Is All You Need
I used to be a computer engineer working on embedded systems for automobiles. Quiescent current is what the normal proper draw is called for these systems when the car is off. We worked very hard getting these numbers in spec but it was hard to catch everything especially in this case where the issue is probably due to software missing the sleep state for that module. This could be from bad code or your CAN/LIN bus is messed up in your car. 99% of mechanics (and engineers) have no idea where to start with debugging these issues and the answer will be "replace the module".
On top of that, you can prompt it with the 20 rules so that it generates cards which would conform to the rules.
Also worth noting that the "expensive platform feature" you refer to in this specific case means "writing to a file". Something as basic as this should be assumed to be fast on modern operating systems.
Prescient Audits never gone well
Seems you're commenting more on the feasibility of surgical taxes rather than the effectiveness of them.

Which is fine; no disagreement there from me. But I'd also posit that government spending on the administrivia is a positive - it's yet another way to keep money moving and likewise keep momentum in the economy.

I guess my point is: the ideal would've been to surgically tax money out of the system, but since we can't (for all the reasons you and I both mentioned), the alternative was rates. And while I hear your point re: cutting spending, you're arguing its merits on the likelihood of it happening, not so much whether one's better than the other. And neither spending cuts nor surgical tax hikes would happen anyway, hence...

...rates. lol

tl;dr: we're saying the same thing. You're talking about which one's more feasible, I'm talking about which one would've probably been more ideal to maintain momentum.
ah, now I get it. sorta.
Understanding the Effects of Data Reduction on Large Language Model Performance
Anecdata: Some Hondas (e.g . 2010 Element) exert enough parasitic drain to put the car into a chronically undercharged state if a door is left ajar overnight.

The wrong thinking turned out to be: Car is safe in garage, interior lights go off, and my hands are full now -- why bother going back to the door to shut it completely?

I'm interested! I've noticed exactly this. But also even with regular use I've had times where the stack and thus required study time was just ever increasing. This is probably a mix of too many new cards plus high difficulty resulting too many reset cards. It would be great if I could determine when and how long I'd study and the algorithm would just offer me the cards best to study next, being repeats or new ones. That would combine nicely with a 'dont brake the chain' or other habbit forming technique. I'd prefer a daily n minutes above something that may take increasingly longer.
It's the AV that was calling TdhFormatProperty(), not FF. The problem was mostly on the AV side, not FF. FF itself was generating many events due to too many VirtualProtect() calls which in itself was only a smaller part of the problem.

My last car, a 2007 Acura TSX, had the same problem--it wouldn't start after 4 or 5 days (maybe 2 or 3 during the winter). This model was from the first wave of touchscreens and bluetooth. Mechanics shrugged, pointed to the tiny, underpowered battery, and told me to drive it more.

Thankfully there are a lot of car enthusiast forums out there that have been plugging away on vBulletin for years. Someone on an Acura forum had figured out that the bluetooth module was always on and looking for a connection. I tried disconnecting it, and the problem was fixed.
My HTC was branded an 8525 by AT&T. I think that means it was a Tytn in other markets.

When it was introduced, there was no iOS yet. And even so, it sucked out loud compared to the 800 pound gorillas of the era, Palm and (in full deployments) Blackberry. WinMo was SO DUMB. I remember discovering the hard way that if you left the browser in the foreground, on-page refresh directives (like CNN used to use) would still be honored even if the device's screen was off. Result? Dead battery in no time.

WinMo also had no way to deal with IMAP mail natively. It was Exchange or POP unless you bought an aftermarket mail client.

True fact: I actually didn't text much until I got an iPhone, so I can't speak to texting on the 8525. I think lots of people my age only came to texting later, whereas if you're like 10 years younger than I am (say, born in 1980 instead of 1970) you probably texted on flip phones in high school or whatever.
Anecdotally, my wife was diagnosed in the US with sleep apnea about 2 years ago. This included multiple GP visits to even get an at-home sleep study that came up negative, us having to purchase an additional at-home sleep study out of pocket that came up positive, and an overnight sleep study. The overnight results gave a diagnosis of severe sleep apnea. The entire process from start to finish took at least 3 months.

Her insurance fought every step of the way, despite having half-decent insurance as a hospital employee. They claimed that her BMI was not high enough to have sleep apnea, and ignored the family history (both parents, 3 grand parents, one sibling, three cousins).
> In the last century, prominent scientists spoke out against U.S. militarism and called for the end of war. Scientists like Einstein, Linus Pauling, and the great skeptic Carl Sagan. Where are their successors? Noam Chomsky is still bashing U.S. imperialism, but he’s in his nineties. He needs help! Far from criticizing militarism, some scholars, like economist Tyler Cowen, claim war is beneficial, because it spurs innovation. That’s like arguing for the economic benefits of cancer or slavery.

The author brings up some good points, but the above attack on Tyler Cowen comes across as either bad-faith or a severe lack of critical thinking skills. You can read Cowen's article for yourself, it is linked below. Cowen never once recommended that any nation pursue war or militarism. He was merely pointing out a possible causal link between war and innovation. Which is exactly what every scientist should aim to do - find causal links, even if we wish those links didn't exist. As a reader of the article, I would hope we are wise enough to understand that even if a causal link exists, there are still many other important reasons to not pursue war.

I know this sounds nitpicky, but I only bring this up because I notice this becoming more and more frequent. People repeatedly attack and shame researchers who find facts and causal links that we wish didn't exist. This is classic shooting-the-messenger. Do we really want to live in a world where researchers are too afraid to publish any studies that yield inconvenient truths? Because we're halfway there already.

hey - thanks for this; it takes some bravery to say this stuff in public.

I'll share that I've been slowly turning into a buddhist, which is not the religion I was born into. I think there's a few things in common, including a sort of universal love and a perspective that could be phrased "it's not about me", but that there's something bigger/higher/more-powerful going on and my specific life experience isn't the most important thing in the universe. Those two things - love, and humility (maybe that's the best single word?) go a long way towards reducing inter-personal frictions large and small.
It's crazy-making, isn't it?

I realize in hindsight how much of my resistance to help was resistance to 'help': I've grown up surrounded by adults/authority figures offering 'help' with no consideration of my actual desires or wellbeing. I know that one. Of course I was wary: I had a good reason.

You're right that it all relies around making people functional, not whole people who have come to terms with who they are and are a psychologically stable human organism.

My Honda HRV dies anytime it gets below -7C. Outside, inside, driven a bunch a day or two before -- once it's cold that battery taps out.

Probably a vampire drain but I suspect it's just a small battery. My old 2013 Mazda 3 starts in -25C without fail.

The problem here is that managers are less qualified than the individuals they manage in actually doing work, since the reports are the 'doers'. It would be more appropriate for a higher-level 'doer' to provide the mentoring than the manager. mentorship != managering
Did you read the bug report? This is literally about writing to files in a temp folder. Surely you can optimize that but you should also be able to assume that this does not use excessive amounts of CPU on a modern operating system.
It is not a bug that there are overlooked optimizations in some platform features. Windows has a ton of slow features. Starting a process, for example, takes forever. It is the responsibility of application authors to write their performance-sensitive critical path in such a way as to avoid bogus platform behaviors. This goes for Linux, which has more than its fair share of brain damage, as well as Windows.
>> Cool idea!

Once upon a time I wondered if magenetic fields influenced nuclear reation rates. Some googling suggested the answer is no, but I found very little in the way of actual experimental results testing it. In more recent times I think I did see one referene to an actual effect but I don't recall what it was. So IMHO this door is clearly open for fictional exploration.

Hey, I am one of the creators of this emulator!
Thanks nhatcher for posting this, glad to see you found this interesting.

A bit of background on this is : we made this when we were students ourselves, learning about 8086, and couldn't find a decent emulator to do some of our lab work (or at least couldn't find a decent one with nice linux support).

We decided to write this primarily for ourselves, and for anyone who want to have an introduction to writing assembly in a friendly environment. This has mistakes, some decisions that seemed good at that time, but are quite bad in hind-site, and you are welcome to open issues on the respective github repos (github.com/YJDoc2/8086-Emulator for the syntax and emulator stuff, github.com/YJDoc2/8086-Emulator-web for the web ui).

We are now busy with other stuff, so the development is not as active as when we initially made this ; however, we try to update and add features, try to do bug fixes, and welcome contributors as much as we can.

Hope this project makes some newcomer interested in amazing domain of assembly, low level systems and system programming!
In theory an economy could expand more in private and small businesses and not help index funds. I could see this happening if there were a lot of corporate taxes based on business size.

I think but am not sure that the economy can expand by shifting more “income” from capital to wages which would be bad for stocks. Think 1950s.

If the expanding economy is caused by a lot of disruption from new businesses it could also be bad to hold indices weighted towards incumbents, this seems the most likely to happen of the three cases. The disrupters don’t necessarily need to be big, just enough of a threat that investors think future growth or earnings of incumbents are threatened.

It was the juxtaposition of the hubiris against the weakness of the arguments. I'm generally put off by people who think they're much smarter or stronger than they really are, and who use it to bully others.

>What about your religious views would you say are "radical"?

To give one example, I now believe non-Abrahamic religions (or a lack thereof) should be entirely illegal.

I did not hold any beliefs even remotely as fringe back before discovering Mr. Repzion, Richard Dawkins, Jackyln Glenn and The Amazing Atheist, Onision as a kid back in ~2011.

After that my impression of atheists gradually soured and I began to observe that in some sense, their attitude was not restricted merely to speech despite what they might dishonestly claim, and that their positions and the demand for that content reflected society's general attitude towards religious people.

I began to understand that this is natural for all groups, tribes etc, so it would be naive for me to allow myself to be on the backfoot.
