I’ve had mild psoriasis since I was a young teenager.

One day it disappeared. Then about 15 years later it came back. In one particularly stressful time of my life it progressed to psoriatic arthritis. Then that went away when the stressful situation was resolved.

I’m now trying to retrace my steps to try to make it go away again. Low inflammation diet, lots of sleep, low stress.
If you wanted the change to take effect then, yes, you would need to restart those apps. Because of the way that NixOS deals with dependencies, the old versions would still be around for running apps to use and carry on.

It might actually be a useful tool for NixOS: finding out which processes have a specific version of a module loaded, so that the user can be warned to restart those processes.

If the user wants to restart processes they can, if they want to just reboot they can also. Simply because it's "simpler" to do one, doesn't mean it's the correct universal choice in all circumstances. My wife, for example, leaves way to much crap open and leaves her laptop suspended - a restart is a serious issue for her.
Because its publicly owned in most places publicly (Japan, China, Europe , Australia, Russia, India, South East Asia, Africa... It seemingly is only the US & Canada where it isn't

So bringing it up is very American since the comment doesn't work anywhere else.

Which reminds me to give a shout-out to the Clipper card. The SF Bay Area really did the right thing here. 24 different systems, all of which use the same card: https://www.clippercard.com/ClipperWeb/where-to-use.html

And they have now expanded that card-based system to include a mobile app, Google Pay, and Apple Pay, so now I just tap my phone and I'm all set.

This was right before COVID. I was there as part of an economic cooperation summit, so the tours were part and parcel of that event. I am supposed to visit again later this year.
>>But later, if you succeed, you can make it up to them and make it worth it for them as well.

Just incase anybody is unaware - this is really not how interpersonal relationships work. Especially romantic interests. You may one day find yourself with a lot of money/power but nobody who truly loves you (or enjoys your company) for who you are - or with not much to show for your years of tunnel visioned neuroticism, symptoms of complete burnout, & also nobody who loves you.

I’m not trying to say there’s something wrong with dedicating a large chunk of your life to a pursuit like they’ve mentioned - I’m just saying don’t be surprised when people you’ve neglected have moved on to greener pastures in that time.
The bay isn't remotely reasonable comparison. NYC is much cheaper than Tokyo, adjusted for living quarter size and median wage. I'm not talking about affordances you get by living in certain areas - simply the size of the place and the price, relative to localized income. Tokyo simply is not cheaper, period.

It only seems cheaper because rich Americans keep using their income and comparing it to the adjusted USD:YEN price. The Yen is trash compared to the dollar, so it seems affordable to an American. But it's not America.

I feel like many commenters have not been to Tokyo. Some of the apartments are literally the size of a single bedroom in an average New York City apartment.
Seems like an ad for the app mentioned on the page. Feels conspiratorial.

I've skimmed the page. It tries hard to look serious with figures and pictures but I understand nothing of them. It states that it can't be proven by peer reviewed science but I can't see why. It says that most evidences exist but we are just missing the dots but I fail to understand any evidence listed, if at all.

If it's not proven, then it's not proven.

This thing does not look serious. Starting from the domain name ".guru"

I'm ready to read that schools have flaws, but this document is just weird. I'm not sure what are the motivations are behind this whole website. Seems dangerous. Seems like a cult. I flagged it.

For instance:

> If you are still skeptical, connect the dots yourself. Why do you think we experience an epidemic of school shootings, or child suicide, or school-associated disorders such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, autism, ADHD, Asperger syndrome, depression, and many more? Why are addictions rampant?

Let's abstract this a bit: "Still skeptical that A is bad? Ever wondered about B, C, D, E, F?"

Yeah, no, definitely not connecting the dots at this point. I won't help you with my imagination on this, I expect some strong reasoning here.

You cannot just wave such extraordinary claims out of your ass just like this, you have to have some freaking exemplary evidences or it's just belief that can be harmful if it's not outright malicious.
Although I read all of it, really? I'm in the syntax obsessive set.

Interesting to read about semicolons improving comprehension -it felt like it had been decades since somebody had the courage to say so. (That said I write python un functionally and so am 4space tabbed to the max)

It's also the first time I've seen "currying is bad" which seems to run against the flow of salmon.
A lot of people (me included) report this when they induce ketosis after eliminating carbs and sugar. It would seem reducing carbs and sugars would drastically change the biotic makeup of one's gut, so this is all seeming to be tied to ones gut... microbiota is very interesting.
That would be the cost of running GPT3 as-is, not to train a new model or hook it up to any live information.

GPT4 has a much larger context window (16x larger), which suggests its file size would be at least 16x as large.
There are regions where the DB app will only sell you tickets that cross the region's borders, but not tickets that are wholly inside the region. There's even at least one region I know of that straight up does not do online ticketing. You have to buy physical tickets, in person, at a machine.
I mean, not paying for/depending on/having half of those networks sounds pretty awesome

I’d add lack of internet to your list. Much harder (but not impossible) to provide yourself.
I thought this was a funny statement too. Text is the most powerful, original medium. It's difficult to overstate how powerful and valuable it is. Of course, text won't necessarily be the only UI exposed for interacting with these "Large Language Models." But that UI can be built on top of the text -- which wouldn't work in the other direction.
Hinton calls it a nuance: https://twitter.com/geoffreyhinton/status/165309276016385228...
49 >> 9 but 49 << monthly ticket at any regional transportation company so one could assume most people will own it and trains will be packed again.
Drawing fits that description, but it isn't really comparable to Krita — the authors describe it as like MS Paint but for Gnome.

Pinta seems similar, but more Xfce-ish.

Every single case involving Pegasus was a targeted attack by a state actor. This is a very different scenario to defend against than what corporations or private persons normally worry about.
> I didn't read a lot about overcrowding

Everybody I know complained about it. The 9€ ticket didn’t cover the ICE trains and instead put more strain on those lines that are already needed by lower- to median income commuters. Regional train lines have rush hours too and during those 9€ Tickets months some wild videos went viral, where things got heated between old and „new“ users
You can't have it both ways here. Either density is creating lots of high paying jobs in an area, that is driving up the price of housing, or it isn't.

> Ironically denser places result in lower wages

No it doesn't. The highest paid locations, in the US, are located in these high cost of living areas.

> This is why people like remote work, so they can better arbitrage.

Yes, they work remote, because dense locations have high salaries. That supports my point. You just agreed with me.

If people had high paying jobs, where they live, they wouldn't work remote, to get the highly paid jobs in dense cities.
> There's also cases like Medical Doctors where the start already requires meaningful education and training.

In this example, it's a bit different as in it is known across the industry.

Did I miss the percent of Mormons in the FBI mentioned? I see the 2% of US population identified, but nowhere how many are in the FBI. According the Pew Research Center[0] 1.6% of the US population is Mormon in 2014. The FBI employs approximately 35,000 people [1].

Looking at differently [2] - take the population of the US; subtract all who are not citizens, under-age, over-age, non-computer users, have no bachelors; subtract all who cannot secure a clearance, subtract all who lack the specific skills required for the role, subtract all who are not willing to take a mediocre salary, and, and, and... What do you have left?

There might be a correlation (we do not know, as we do not have a percent of Mormons in the FBI), but the factors identified are also readily present in several other groups.

I could have written an article that the US DoD hires disproportionately color-blind people. We should investigate! (I can back this up with real numbers too ;))

No, I literally do not know what went wrong or when. I'm not trying to make a point about government-provided anything. Although government-provided healthcare began quite a bit earlier than that, as early as the 1880s in Germany, but definitely in the 1940s when the UK NHS started.
Sorry, you’re correct. Chief scientist not CTO.
Anecdotally the worst leg injury during hiking I heard off was from a guy in a very expensive hiking boots. Basically he slipped and his foot stuck between two stones while the body continued to move resulting in a broken bone. If he would wear a low ankle in the worst case he would twisted the ankle, but most likely he would get just a bruise from the ankle impacting the stones.
Interesting; Reader Mode works fine in GNOME's WebKit-based browser. Seems like an Apple specific bug, perhaps you should report it.
I don't know about new terms, but I prefer pragmatism over the other 'isms out there, as long as they respect individuals rights and dignity. A far as CEO's as dictators, I don't think we see eye to eye, because this can be a GOOD thing in a lot of cases. Rule by committee instead of a single minded focus of someone with a vision is a recipe for mediocrity... up until a certain scale anyway. This is where I think things tend to break down. It's like Newton's laws, they work fine up until things get too big, or fast, then you have to correct for them with something else. As long as companies aren't so big and powerful as to disrupt the function of government, or negatively affect the populous without recourse, then I think it is fine, but after that ya, you need regulation at least.
Apple's value add is like Vercel's value add (drawing from the other thread on the front page) - user experience for people who can't be bothered to deal with all the hard bad stuff. It will work up to a certain limit, but once you want the slightest of extra features, you're going to land in a tough spot.
It's absurd this is flagged.

I tried to put my mom on linux and she hated it. Linux is more complicated than its worth for an older adult.
Do you disagree with my first paragraph?
Does anyone have any examples of what the author is referring to as "sludge music"? I use Spotify a lot, and listen a lot of recommended songs and generally I haven't encountered much of this type of content to my knowledge. (Even though I do listen to ambient music which I think would be rife with this type of sludge mood music the author seems to describe)

I think this write up about the price of housing is a worthwhile read. An underrated aspect of this is that people want to live in dense places, and are willing to pay more to do so. Not universally, but it certainly occurs.

What do they do about cars without license plates? I seem to recall that new cars in California are sold with NO plates, not even paper temporary tags.
What's a door still?
> It should be almost self evidently true that they pay more money, than random jobs, in the middle of nowhere, in the US.

I'm talking about the wage relative to the price sq/ft. You're laughably wrong. Just google Median NYC salary and look at the median NYC sq/ft, and do the same with say, Dallas, TX. It's not even close.

I'm not talking about nominal wages, I'm talking about sq/ft monthly rent adjusted wages. When you look at that, the densest places do not have the highest wages. People are sacrificing earning potential to be in a more fun area, which makes sense.

What’s happening right now is a story we’ve seen plenty of times before. Overhead cost of convenience mixed with vendor lock-in, all while boasting about open source.

I’d love to create tools that were convenient and had fair pricing. The challenge is that you’re trying to grow into a market with worse acquisition economics. Tough to win if winning is the goal. If anyone has a solution reach out. XD

No, it's generating output word by word, not planning very far ahead (it can't since it doesn't even know what words it's really going to generate, since they are randomly sampled), and essentially backs itself into a corner where completing the train of thought requires a fact that it doesn't actually have.

Just as a made up example, say you asked "what is the capital city of england", and the model had seen similar questions in it's training data that were answered with "the capital city of X is Y", so it starts word-by-word generating this type of response "the capital city of england is", but it then turns out the model doesn't actually know the answer (i.e. this partial response context doesn't cause it to predict the correct answer), so it blithley predicts the next word as whatever it's inner machinations come up with, maybe "buckingham palace" or "flavor town".

"Hallucination" seems a poor way to describe it, nor is it lying since there's no bad intent ... it's basically "starting to speak before brain engaged", a bit like a game show contestant being a bit too enthusiastic and hitting the "answer" button without actually having a fully thought out answer in mind.
I didn't know "stop" was an accepted keyword for turning off the alarm.

I've been using "Hey Google, Shut Up!" for a few years now. It works pretty well.

> And neither can Linux, contrary to popular belief. Anything that involves system services or god forbid the kernel requires a reboot.

That is not true at all, and anyone can confirm this by upgrading the kernel and system services (e.g. desktop environment, display manager, systemd) on Arch Linux and verifying that just about everything continues to work normally. In my experience, the only things that require a reboot are a few particular kernel modules (such as the VirtualBox host modules) and only if you are going to use those modules. Even in that case, it is still your choice whether you want to reboot.

Scientifically it's nearly impossible to prove things. However, scientific evidence supporting the antibiotic-driven increase in antibiotic resistant "superbugs" has been found.

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2019/sep/19/superbug...

Antibiotics, and antibiotic resistance genes, have existed for an uncountable number of megayears. Antibiotic use by humans is probably not creating many new antibiotic resistance genes, if any at all. But is is driving the increase in bacteria that contain these genes, as well as encouraging the horizontal transmission of antibiotic resistance genes and the accumulation of multiple such genes in so-called "superbugs".

> given that Europe lags behind in technological innovation

True in some sense, like cool innovations like Ubers for X and social media. False in some sense that there been innovation coming from Europe as well, small things like the web, GSM, CRISPR, LHC, renewables and other almost irrelevant things.

I think technological innovations comes from all continents and I don't think you can surely say that one lags behind another when considering innovation with big impact, everyone is contributing in their way and some in some fields while lagging in others.
