>> Minimize saturated fat (by replacing it with unsaturated fat).

> No.

Let's make this simple: show me evidence that replacing unsaturated fat with saturated fat improves human health outcomes. Obviously we're not going to have this discussion in a dead HN thread, but you have to do better than that when challenging the scientific consensus.

It's trivial to find sources for the opposite. Just google "saturated vs unsaturated fat". Maybe consult the wiki entry for Saturated Fat.

You surely must at least be able to acknowledge that you're posting from a fringe position?
> banished from the DSM

Are you referring to the DSM classification instrument for mental disorders (where Freud never even was mentioned), or is there another three-letter-acronymed organisation in psychology/psychiatry I am unaware of?
You have confirmation affordances. "We have received your request and will get back to you shortly"

Of course, if the button is sometimes ignored, that undermines the affordance and people learn not to trust it.
> Why are there so many psychologists practicing psychoanalysis today, then?

They aren't uncommon, but CBT, DBT, EMDR, Family Systems, Internal Family Systems, Rational emotive, Humanistic, Mindfulness-based are currently much more in vogue than psycho-analysis/dynamics.

Rather than a point-in-time analysis of psychoanalytic vs humanistic approaches, there's a deeper, more interesting story in the history of prevalence between the two.

The comment section in a HN discussion won't do the story justice, but to understand the historical picture, I'd recommend reading about how homosexuality was extricated from the DSM and the stories of John Fryer, Ronald Gold, and others. It's the story of the ousting of psychoanalysts from the APA by the humanists and helps set the stage for understanding the landscape of psychology today with respect to psychoanalysis.
I don't find this surprising. Apple TV probably has nearly 100% penetration of app store usage, you download your streaming apps as a necessity (Netflix, Hulu, HBO, Disney+ are all apps).

Meanwhile there's almost zero useful watchOS apps. The device is great out of the box and doesn't need much else.
Same in Canada.

Obviously a little different if you're in a high rise, but what's the point of being in a tall building without windows? Why pay the premium to be in a highrise with a view that looks like a basement?
I think things are moving in the opposite direction. tech has enabled heavier handed control over products Long after they are sold. often customers legally do not own the products they buy through IP law shenanigans amounting to legal machinations as bizarre as leasing a pair of tennis shoes for $120. you're free to throw them out but you may not use them in a way that reflects poorly on the brand.

Not without regulation, and the US decided to do away with those for some reason.
It's just too much money to abuse your position in market A to pivot into market B.

Capitalism - regulation => utilities's entire point is to capture a monopoly to then abuse it.
TSMC used to be 30% owned by Phillips, the same company that started ASML, the company that makes the machines that produce the chips for ASML. So the machines used to make these chips are Dutch and TSMC that uses these machines was originally Dutch. I think Europe could easily make these chips if they did not outsource so much to save money.
What's the business model for companies like these? 750M valuation implies that they should be able to generate at least 75M revenue per year.

More like an ADHD-sufferer that barely gets anything done
Allen Carr helped me - rather his book. Cold Turkey. No withdrawal symptoms, urges - nothing. It just made smoking seem so illogical (basically we smoke to feel "normal" again, as we are trying to fix nicotine withdrawal). The book did not use health scare tactics, hypnosis, or any of that. I highly recommend his book to anyone who wants to quit.
Like the Kowloon city, the form of these objects was evolved out of necessity, step by step. One requirement after another.
I've been watching too much blacksmithing on Youtube. It can be used for laminating iron, that much I do know. Not sure about brazing.
For a while before the pandemic it felt like Lyft and Uber were roughly equal in my market, most drivers did both, saturation was about the same, prices about the same. Now I see a lot more Uber drivers, I wonder if the ability to do food deliveries with order size based tips on the Uber network has an impact on that?
context ?
Playing Gizmos and Gadgets on the old IBMs token-ring'd together at school was where it all began for me and computers :)

EDIT: One teacher even had an Apple II with "Touch the Target"

Really makes me feel old thinking about it now-- it wasn't really THAT long ago but then again I guess it was.
Movies that box office for less than their budget are typically considered failures, yes.
The most impressive thing I can get Siri to do is "Hey Siri, play my <playlist name> on Spotify", and it works consistently. "Hey Siri, reply." is another decent one, but it seems to be working poorly lately.
The guy that initially commented on it being sour was talking about Czech beers and using Euros so I assumed they were European and English might not be their first language. Their language may not have the distinction you described. I believe German uses the same word for sour and acidic for example.
As <cat-over-keyboard> already mentioned, it's not always that simple. For example, my current approach (modeled after Krom, who doesn't even have a Wikipedia page - no wonder nobody reads him!) is a more systematic search for a polynomial algorithm - construct a polynomial sized-logic in which theories have models that are satisfying instances of SAT, and prove its refutable-completeness. This proves existence of a polynomial algorithm, because you can generate all formulas of theory (coming from SAT instance) in said logic, and if you don't find a contradiction, the instance is satisfiable. The algorithm is kinda implicit, non-deterministic, if you will (because you can generate all the formulas in any order or even generate just a subset).

Anyway, my main point is - people beware, practically solvable P=NP (even for hard instances) is a very real possibility.
At this point it will be a race see which virtual assistant can become universally useful first, and from what the article is implying Siri is not anywhere close to where they need it to be.
Sure, but I wasn't talking about the equivalence principle.

We were comparing the motion of a charged particle and a mass particle.

The equivalence principal was never mentioned.
I'd recommend focusing on driving instead of messing with settings if it feels extremely unsafe.
Programs ARE proofs. The types are logical propositions. If the code runs then the propositions are true, although for most programming languages types are very flexible so from the mathematical perspective they aren't proving anything interesting (even though the program is doing something useful). This is the Curry-Howard correspondence between logic and programs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curry%E2%80%93Howard_correspon...
> We want them to be outside of the political process once they've been appointed

Yes, we do. However, regardless of what the system intended, that's not what we have anyway.
"planning on approving" =/= approved.

and we'll see what gets a greenlight; could be one or two pet projects, and after those crash and burn nothing else happens.
Because there wasn't a high profile report about the behavior, so many weren't aware of it.
It couldn't, which is why it's a good idea to avoid the word, "semantic".

The same problem also exists in the name, "Large Language Model". Sure, the content being modeled contains language, but the model itself is not specific or limited to language patterns. We ought to call them "Large Text Models"; or better yet, "Text Inference Models".

The words we use to describe software are very important: they inform goals and expectations. They define the context that software exists in.

I see our biggest mistake as calling these tools, "Artificial Intelligence". That title began as a goal and a category of work: it doesn't belong in the title or description of software unless that software has actually met the goal.
Needing strong AI to manage permissions on a file sharing program sounds like something out of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Like the sentient AI stuck operating an elevator.
Tractors aren’t a pure commodity. It’s an ecosystem of machinery, service and accessories.

Market forces work best with commodities and substitute products. The farther away you get, the weaker the effect.
Can't find documentation online yet for this year's H100 systems, but here's a schematic for an A100 server: https://docs.nvidia.com/dgx/dgxa100-user-guide/introduction-...
There 2 GPUs, 2 NICs and 1 NVME are connected via one PCIe switch.

The torus topology makes sense for ring algorithms: Allreduce, Allgather, Reducescatter. For purely data parallel training you could put all model replicas into the same ring (although Nvidia also uses hierarchical algorithms that benefit from lower lately). With added model parallelism one will need smaller rings running concurrently. I guess the TPU cluster layout will then put constraints on the most efficient model architectures (as does the network topology of a GPU cluster).
“Design” and “designer” are too generic terms. The web page doesn’t really tell me what this is about. You say “create just about anything you can describe”. But I guess this tool maybe is not for designing (say) clothes (as in cuts), or a 3D model, or a floor plan, or a CPU, or a business workflow, or a software architecture, or a PowerPoint presentation. My best guess from the web page is that it is for creating single-page 2D documents with images and a bit of text, but I’m not really sure.
The real move is Uber to O'hare and taxi from O'hare.
> Announcing the Brave Search API

> In continuing our mission to offer alternatives to Big Tech, Brave is planning to release the Brave Search API. Through it, developers and companies will be able to build search experiences that compete on quality with Big Tech. Those interested should stay tuned for more details, or contact us at bizdev@brave.com.

That's going to be very important for search engines like phind which rely on the bing index service.
Yep. For all its flaws Uber has been really trying to invest in the right areas and is frankly much more promising long-term. Lyft was always just 2nd fiddle to Uber for ridesharing.
I remember visiting Europe a few times over the decades (late 80s through early 2010s). I'd noticed an increase in smoking in Europe as I was noticing a decrease in the US. Someone might have more specific numbers/details/charts, but IIRC, cigarette companies were starting to ramp up marketing outside the US as they could see legislation coming and social support waning.
This is a pretty neat example of how to mislead using distracting piles of real data and technical jargon. It immediately dives into lots of studies and graphs which are all valid. But if you strip that away and look at the core argument, it is:

1. Climate researchers project temperature will increase by X%.

2. Historical data shows an increase smaller than X%.

3. Therefore the projections are wrong.

Once you reduce it down to that, the key flaw in the argument is more obvious: 3 only follows from 2 if you assume that the rate of temperature increase is unchanging. But the article itself even includes a quote that "tropospheric warming is accelerating". The whole point of fears about climate change is that the change is accelerating.

Or, by analogy: I project that my height in ten years will not have increased at all. However, looking at the historical data, I clearly grow about 2.25 inches per year. Therefore, Bailey would claim that my projection is bullshit.

Well, actually, no. My projection is correct. My rate of growth changed (in this case a rapid deceleration) around the age of 18.
The issue of boring lectures has been around a long time. Lectures of that sort seem somewhat obsolete anyway, probably it is more efficient to work in smaller class sizes with more video content. I greatly appreciated video lecture playback with variable speed, rewind.

With big lectures I remember details about the lecturer more than the class material. The professor's style, tone, gravitas. Their anecdotes.

An important part of the package there really is about marshaling student attention. Getting out of the home, going to a dedicated place of learning with others, restraints on distraction. Similar issues affect WFH/remote. Or various other psycho-hacks like wearing special uniforms, daily rituals.

Perhaps ADD correlates with cultural looseness around all such formality.
Interesting, I’m not seeing that in Europe either.
I must be in an unusual company then. I rarely hear about my managers if I have done a meeting in the morning. I get my share of interruptions later, but these are usually technical questions from other developers or testers, or emergencies, but almost never regular project management stuff.
To use SFO as one example: "Destinations either 15 miles beyond the limits of the City and County of San Francisco or 15 miles beyond the boundaries of San Francisco International Airport are charged at 150% of the metered rate."

Also if you need an SUV or larger vehicle for more passengers, it's much easier to just use Uber.
What would you say the key differences were between the nomination of Merrick Garland and the nomination of Robert Bork?
I'm actually NOT surprised by this stat - keep in mind these numbers are the number of active users of the stores, not of the devices themselves. I've had an Apple Watch since day 1 but I can't remember the last time I went to the App Store on my watch itself. On the other hand, I have to use the AppleTV App Store once every couple months to download whatever app is required by the newest streaming platform the family want to use. I suspect most people are like me as well in that they use their iPhone to manage the "apps" on their watch (or, don't manage them at all), but are forced to download apps on the AppleTV periodically, which causes it to have higher usage stats.
I sound like I'm from 1997 because we've known this for decades.

Show me evidence that replacing unsaturated fat with saturated fat improves human health outcomes. If you can't, then I have to ask you how your epistemology works if you don't need a mountain of evidence to surmount the scientific consensus.

You'll find that this "debate" cashes out into two sides: one side points to the balance of scientific literature on human health outcomes, and the other side hand-waves over mechanistic speculation.

For example, the latter side likes to blame seed oils when they actually improve human health outcomes: https://www.the-nutrivore.com/post/a-comprehensive-rebuttal-...
I usually enter the car saying "I don't have any cash, only card. Is that ok?"

And i've been turned down once or twice. I use cabs a lot, so I could call those experiences extreme outliars.
I used to have this dream where I was not quite flying, but if I jumped horizontally and then picked my feet up, it took a very long time to fall back down. That would be, for me, literally "living the dream".
Siri is nice. Use it for a variety of things. Although would hurt if it is not worked on and improved.
Vector databases make it so semantically similar sentences get mapped to be closer together in the vector space.

So the sentence "I started working as a programmer" will be very close to "I began my job as a software developer". This makes it very powerful for natural language search.

So when the user asks a bot "Find the text message John sent me 3 years ago about wanting to found a company, I think it was like a hang gliding company? or parasailing? idk"

Behind the scenes you can ask GPT "Output a list of 10 candidate sentences that are plausible text messages that John may have sent", and it spits out

"I'm thinking of starting a hang gliding company" and "I might found a parasailing company" etc.

Then you query the vector DB for those imaginary sentences, and as a result you get sentences that are semantically similar. You take the top N nearest neighbors and plug them in to the GPT context window and say:

"Here are 100 sentences that might match the original query. If any of them match, select the number that matches. Otherwise output null"

If you engineer this system well, you can get pretty decent results.

This is great for key:value type querying, but IMO there is a lot of ground to be explored by extending it with more graph-like links. I.e. use vector search to get some initial nodes that are better than random, but then start doing a little beam-search algorithm from those nodes to find nodes they are "linked" to in some way that may answer the query better.
Always remember that the vote buying process is more about guaranteeing further alignment, instead of straight out buying. I can't imagine, for instance, Kagan receiving similar gifts, from similar donors, to make her vote with Thomas. I also don't think that some left wing billionaire could throw a million or two at Thomas and suddenly turn him into a swing voter.

High brow political corruption everywhere is more about those small, marginal adjustments, which also lead to less obvious quid pro quo. It's not that your buddy renovated your house, so you pick his company in a government bid worth a few hundred million: He becomes your buddy first, and gives you smaller gifts, and when you are adequately aligned, bigger gifts keep getting exchanged.

This is what makes the actual corruption always seem very cheap: It was never that huge a push, and the long term social component is always far more important than just the money.
Oh sure - there are definitely morale and trust issues. Even (and sometimes especially) among otherwise smart and capable people.

Vastly more common (and destructive) than simple incompetence, I have sadly come to find.

You're getting downvoted but i think it's a fair point that revisiting win32k in any language might come up with some opportunities for optimization along the way. Performance best practices have changed a lot since that component was written.

Let's accept it! Apple sucks at anything that involves learning from large volumes of data.
Every single day I wish the architects at my current job had chosen Datomic instead of Postgresql.

Also the ability to annotate transactions is awesome.

So many goodies.

At n > 1000, exponential seems more of a problem. But 3SAT can apparently be reduced to MAX2SAT increasing the length by a factor 10, so that doesn't seem prohibitive to me.
Thats a reason to not engage if you dont have time.

It is not a reason to sit down and dismiss away questions or type out why you wont tell them.
Are there countries out there with good right-to-repair laws? How does Colorado now stand up on the international scale?
Generally speaking (and besides possible tax advantages that depend on your local tax code and financial situation) a lease is not cheaper, it is usually much more expensive, though not all leases have the same terms and offer the same levels of servicing.

The only advantages (talking of an integral lease, i.e. one where everything maintenance related is included) are those of knowing in advance what you will pay, no matter what happens and - again generally speaking - you will have a "better" insurance and replacement car in case of prolonged workshop stops.

It may make some sense if you have a constant, fixed, income or you are making a budget for a firm, and if you are terrible at driving (as you will have a known in advance fixed monthly payment, with no peaks in case of large repairs), but it will cost more in the end, besides, hard to say where you live, in some cases it will be complicated to bring in the car for maintenance and there may be "caps" or "ranges" on yearly mileage (if you choose more miles than you actually drive, you are wasting money, but if you exceed the chosen mileage, you will pay the excess mileage a lot).
You imply OpenSSH is the place to do this work.

Given the protocol changes needed, it may be a new implementation. I actually expect it would be.
The worst part about Siri in my opinion is how it can do bulk actions when it mishears you. You want the ceiling light off? Okay, turning off all the lights. Or the opposite, it turns *everything* on, which can be even more annoying.
One of the three is the odd one out and you know it as well.
The inability to set multiple simultaneous timers is annoying. I compensate by setting multiple alarms. "Delete all my alarms" works when I'm done, but it's certainly a hack.
It used to be smarter, I think they dumbed it down to save money or something.
Couldn't find the book, do you have an ISBN or link for it? Would love to gift it to someone I know who loves to read but equally loves to smoke and would like to stop.
Fine, I'll bite. What wasn't credible about the accusation?
It’s just because you don’t here about all the wealthy people who already quietly did that.
That might result in skipping over important details, though. “I’m in a war zone” seems better.
Something I've been curious about: how well (or badly) would it scale to do something similar on a normal relational DB (say, Postgres)?

You could have one or more append-only tables that store events/transactions/whatever you want to call them, and then materialized-views (or whatever) which gather that history into a "current state" of "entities", as needed

If eventual-consistency is acceptable, it seems like you could aggressively cache and/or distribute reads. Maybe you could even do clever stuff like recomputing state only from the last event you had, instead of from scratch every time

How bad of an idea is this?
Yess! I'm currently reading The Fuller Memorandum and it's wild finding this today.
