Wrong. Lithium in Chile was nationalized in the 1980s by Pinochet. Lithium extraction and processing has been granted to privates in long term contracts that will continue to be valid but will not be renewed, and new mines will be owned directly by the state.
It's well known that at least since the antiquity humans were practising body weight exercises to strengthen themselves.

Yes. Largely through torturing my system and reducing it to non-bootable state and having to read up on what symbols I mangled this time and how. Why do you ask?
Lithium mines and avocado plantations are like 1,000 km apart from each other.
NY state is consistently ranked 2nd after California for the # of residents leaving. New York saw a net loss of over 75 thousand families last year.

Immigration helps offset those numbers a bit, because like you said people see NY(C) as the capital and plenty of people still want to live there.

Deterioration happens slowly and builds up over time. Humans are very resilient and adaptive to things getting worse (as every war has shown). When things happen slowly you don't notice how bad it is and forget what is lost. The older (usually conservative) people who notice the deterioration are often dismissed as cranks, boomers, out of touch, etc. So immigrants/young college kids still flock to NY and start building a life there before noticing that living there as an adult is way harder than it should be.

Moving states typically requires things to get really bad and people often don't understand the cause/effect of shitty gov and deteriorating cultures.
I like .net, I think it's underrated and the domains usually undervalued relative to other TLDs.
The "well-connected financier" storyline generally falls apart on closer inspection. Of what is actually known and documented about how Epstein obtained his money, it was mostly through stock and real estate gifted to him by Les Wexner.
The temperature decreases very quickly compared to a flame. When you’re cooking with things with very low burning points (like cream) being able to have that kind of fine control is important.

Also, moving the pan off of the center of the burner and cooking parts at different temperatures is required for some dishes.

These were techniques I was trained to use.

I haven’t worked in a kitchen in over 20 years so maybe the technology has improved to the point where this is possible with induction pans.
Criminals and bad police just love that everyone thinks that.

From your point of view, the logic goes "the chances are low that I'll ever be in one of those situations". Well gee, how nice for you.

But for the bad cop, you created the condition that wherever they go, whoever they DO happen to interact with, they always get away with whatever they want. They swim in a sea of all open book victims. The people they do abuse all think the same thing you do.

You should generally be worried about your house burning down even if your house has never burned down.

> I remember in the 2000s, there was some site using a decimal IP address (as a single number, not dotted quad) that had hacking/crypto puzzles. Something with a "Alice in Wonderland" theme. Does that ring a bell for anyone?

Was it called ninebows? I was looking online for that a while ago to show a friend, and I remember in school reading pages and pages of forum threads about it: speculation of what this or that meant, ideas for solving the next puzzle, et c. It was a website with some hidden puzzle that, once solved, would leave you with another link somewhere else with another puzzle that needed solving.

Someone eventually won, too, but it looks like it just vanished off the face of the Internet like many things from that era. Either that, or my search engine skills aren't good enough.
I think you just got unlucky. Most tenants don’t know their rights in the Bay Area and there’s a lot of smarmy landlords here. I have had to deal with them almost regularly. I hate condos but they were the best to rent. All SFH landlords want to increase rent every year so they can go galavanting about the world. I hope rent control is here to stay, it’s the only way I can hope to save some money while inflation is so crippling.

I don't understand why people who make this argument think it's OK for the US government to spy on the private communications of all Chinese citizens but not for it to spy on those of American citizens. Is it OK for China to spy on American citizen's private communications, then?

It becomes even more problematic within the Five Eyes cooperation context, because if the NSA is spying on British private citizen communications, and GCHQ is spying on American private citizen communications, and the NSA and GCHQ are exchanging data without any limits, well???

Universal standards of human behavior and the right to personal privacy are hardly limited to some arbitrary nation-state boundary line, are they?

As far as targeted spying on government authorities and military operations, well, that's justified. Indeed it's a good thing that different countries are paying attention to each other in this manner, it has a stabilizing influence and can help to avoid conflicts if everyone knows what everyone else is up to.

As someone who considers themselves on the left, i have broadly the same view.

I also don't have a hard view on gun control, because if the state authorities are militarised then it's hard to argue that civil society can't be.
The solution for this of course is to demilitarise the police.
bingo, agreed

judge people only by the content of their character. (ie. MLK's dream.) Help based only on their economic means, or their health needs.

I believe some folks in recent years have "gone overboard" and have devised a way to give them an Official feel-good excuse to self-deal or, to discriminate against a new batch of demographic traits. Which in turn just sows the seeds for yet more grievance "back blast" based on identity groups, yet again.

I personally feel quite lucky & fortunate to have companies that have been quite social. Well over 50% of conversations only happen because of physical immediacy.

One person grumbles or just looks stressed. Someone asks. A conversation starts.

Two people start chatting about some implementation. Someone else overhears & suggests another idea.

Going to lunch and people chat over plans or things they want.

I strongly disagree with you. Meetings are a godforsaken hellish awful replacement for socialization.

The 7b model is ca. 6gb of VRAM so yes, it is already 4bit quantized.

There are already efforts underway with GPTQ libraries but I have found they incur a substantial performance penalty, with the benefit of consuming much lower VRAM.

EDIT: I had a look at the repo, it appears the Vicuna model is using 3bit quantization.
It does seem like Ubuntu stacks up well on the 'CVE' scale.[1]

Ubuntu has managed to pull in users with their "just works" reputation.
Its actually impressive that they managed to pull such a heist, considering they were a late entrant to this market.

I wonder if I am giving undue importance to CVE reputation. Should I just use an OS that is pleasant to use and call it a day?

That's what a zero interest rate policy buys you.
I didn't mean that you were defending anything. I just think that the various events are indicative of problems whether or not they are anomalous.

As a bad analogy, if a murder suspect was found to be carrying an illegal weapon on the night in question, it would hardly work in their defence for them to state they often carried an illegal weapon.
After several 80$ blatant photocopies, I stopped buying books from amazon. My local bookshop can order almost any book directly from the publisher, and I can refuse the purchase if it looks pirated.
Have you got those to work on an iPhone?
Yes. Llama.cpp uses the CPU to do inference. MPS is the GPU for the macbook, so it has highly performant cores which can be used to do the computation. When you get inference done on the GPU, there's no (less?) energy wasted on general compute type work. :)
Apparently the term dates to the late 1910s.

"Having strong opinions on which compiler flags to use" seems like it'd be a bit miserable. Flags should be for either unusual situations where you want to do something differently, or for situations where you're required to make a choice. If these flags are useful >90% of the time, why aren't they default?

Originally this was only for professors (and I'm not so sure there weren't conflicts of interest). My first employer fought the university for the right to his Masters' thesis, and won, establishing the precedent for grad students (and hence my job).

Well played. You start with a synonym for obviously, but pointing that out just proves your point.

This was because of Allan Klein who basically shafted the Stones and got the rights to most of their 60s output until his death https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitter_Sweet_Symphony

so when he died Jagger and Richards gave the publishing rights back.

Every few years this thing comes up and people make it sound like The Stones screwed over the Verve and then someone comes along and clarifies the issue but for some reason the next time it comes back up it is still the same confusion.
I don't know if I've just been lucky, but to add anec-data, I've rented from 5 different landlords in 2 different states, and I've never had a real negative experience. When I have an issue, it's resolved relatively quickly, noise mostly isn't a problem, and I can easily move to a new location with fairly limited hassle. Rent has perhaps increased more than I'd like at times, but no more than the market price would indicate it should.
Thanks for sharing! It's definitely a bit painstaking to get a real-world LLM running at all on an iPhone due to memory constraint. It's also quite compute-intense as it has 7B parameters, but we are glad that it's generating texts at reasonable speed!

The model we are using is a quantized Vicuna-7b, which I believe is one of the best open-sourced models. Hallucination is a problem to all LLMs, but I believe research on model side would gradually alleviate this problem :-)
This is a good thing to point out. I imagine there are some new names in here, but the Noam Chomsky connections at least were surfaced by left-leaning parapolitical Twitter accounts early last year. IIRC Chomsky even confirmed it via email. The stuff about him having dinner with Woody Allen seems new though.

> This event showed who the strongest match player in the world is, and as of today - that is Ding Liren.

The problem with the current WCC is that it’s very much up for debate, and this is like, your opinion.

I don’t think Ding Liren is a better player than Magnus Carlsen.

The current title is mostly symbolic. It means “the second best player in the world”.
There's no specific claim being made here. It's just that assuming a lithium mining company (which, as an industry, has a terrible human rights record) would not commit human rights violation because it is a multinational company is a strange assumption to make.
The reason gas is superior is due to heat recovery time. Recovery time is the time it takes to reach temperature after adding food to a pan. Gas is superior to all forms of electric in recovery time. There simply is /more energy/ in a cubic foot of gas compared to what a home electric circuit can deliver in the same time frame. It’s science, plain and simple.

The practical effect is food spends less time steaming, so for example, a stir fry doesn’t come out soggy and unappetizing.
I think there's a large class of apps where you end up writing less than 30-50k lines of code and things aren't a problem in the end.

I've built a video course platform now in Flask, Phoenix and Rails and I've built about 60% of the platform in all 3 tech stacks. The Rails app has ~7k lines of code (LOC count includes everything but tests), it's substantially less than the others. The Phoenix app was by far the worst of the 3 in terms of how much code I had to write and overall "difficulty" of the code. The Flask app sat somewhere in the middle, at times it made doing certain things easier and more efficient than Rails but if I had to rank overall developer happiness and how easy it was to do things it would be Rails > Flask > Phoenix where let's say Rails is a 8.5 in terms of happiness, Flask is a solid 7 and Phoenix was maybe a 4 or 5. This includes a number of real-time elements like having a persistent video player that survives across page navigations, notifications and comments being broadcast to all connected clients with authentication and more.
GDP per capita is a very narrow indicator that does not come close to telling enough about the economic condition of a country.

Argentina seems to be going bankrupt and drown in enormous inflation every couple of years. That isn't the case with Chile. Based on this factor alone, Chile and Argentina aren't peers.

I don't know enough about Uruguay to judge.
This is beautiful. I like the intro, it resonates. The Protean desire, the desire to be vast & powerful resonates to me as something not very dealt with, as something taboo. It's fun & useful framing.

The whole article though feels mostly like a discussion of jealousy & insecurity though.

> The Titans, dressed in full armor, are beings inflamed by jealousy. They see everything in terms of struggle, feel attacked by the gods, and seek the power to become gods.

It's a setup setup to show problems. I personally don't feel like many of the problems line up with what Titanous parts of personality I have.

> As titans we are haunted by the feeling that our friends, bosses, lovers, and powerful people are competing with us. They attack us, seeking to destroy our sense of worth and to steal what we have.

Absolutely not. I don't think being a titan makes one be a thin skinned zero sum hollow person. Most of the examples follow in this vein.

Personally I'd love to see a better positive spin on trying to live large on this earth, on shooting for doing huge things, for following deeply that which one finds to be important to themselves.

The actual problems of the titan are less about the Titan, and more related to thr normal sized form of most of this planet's inhabitants, related to other people's jealousies & insecurities. The Titan can be confident & secure in their path, not socially pressed to prove points or be accepted, if they have a real connection to the great tasks & ordeals thry have before them.
First of all, you're exaggerating tremendously, as I don't see anybody "quitting their career" over documentation, and literally nobody is talking about impostor syndrome (in the article or comments here). You're seeing things that aren't there.

But secondly, I think what you're writing is a great example of how their are two philosophies or ideologies of communication.

One philosophy (that you seem to subscribe to) is that it's the prerogative of the speaker (writer) to communicate however they think is right, and it's the responsibility of the listener (reader) to do the work to understand it, and reponsibility for miscommunication lies with the listener. To use your words, the speaker doesn't need to "baby" the listener, and the listener is wrong to be "personally offended".

But the other philosophy is that it's the responsibility of the speaker to communicate in a way that will be best understood, and it's the prerogative of the listener to note where the speaker's communication is unclear, misleading, frustrating, or offensive to the listener. It's the speaker's job to make a good faith effort to know their audience and communicate appropriately for that audience, and to apologize and rephrase when they make mistakes.

Now, which one is right? Well, there is no "right". What there is is -- which one serves you better as the speaker? Which philosophy will further your goals, which one will get you further in life?

Well if your goal is to be able to get angry at listeners/readers who don't get it and feel smarter than others, by all means adopt the first philosophy. But if your goal is for your speech and writing to have the impact you want it to have, the second philosophy is going to be more productive for you. And calling people "babies" is about as counterproductive as you can be in terms of getting people to listen to you.

*nix shell is an interactive, concatenative string language with transparent file system access and binary loading capabilities. It's fairly unique among languages and very good at what it does.

Hardly convoluted when the sentence states one fact about one night.

If it had been written as "These procedures were not followed on just the night he died.", then I would agree with you.

> I’m glad that draconian anti-marijuana laws have disappeared. But we need a taboo against public consumption.

https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2023/04/weed-smell... by Thomas Chatterton Williams

Some snippets:

> I received a huge amount of pushback for my remark (in addition to quite a lot of agreement), much of it premised on the idea that any social response to public weed smell would inevitably result in the warehousing of Black and brown bodies. In fact, I don’t want the police to put public weed-smokers in jail. I simply think New Yorkers should do a better job of policing themselves: a middle ground in which smokers of any color exercise discretion where the law employs restraint.

> Tolerance is a wonderful value in principle. And as the intolerant have long understood, it is also a value that can be easily exploited. It works best when buttressed by agreed-upon standards and a common investment in informal norms...

> The reflex to dismiss any criticism of violations against communal consideration exemplifies an evolving progressive politics, what the writer Michael Shellenberger has referred to as an ethos of “left-libertarianism.” In ways large and small, it has degraded urban spaces....

> When is the last time you’ve seen someone pounding shots of vodka on the subway? You haven’t, and for good reason. Drug possession was once a crime as well as a taboo. Now that we’ve optimized the admirable goal of ensuring that it isn’t the former, we need a redirect to preserve the latter.

TIL about CSS Container Queries https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_Contain...

That technique of using a style tag to set a CSS var (--horizontal) then using @container tags to shift the UI is really cool.

<div class="c-newspaper__item" style="--horizontal: true;">
<article class="c-card"></article>
</div>

.c-newspaper__item {
container-type: inline-size;
container-name: card;
}

@container card (min-width: 300px) and style(--horizontal: true) {
.c-card {
display: flex;
gap: 1rem;
}
}

Also, as someone who learned CSS in the early 2000s, seeing grid layouts with `grid-template-columns:` etc make life so much easier. Web devs have it easier these days.
