and should ask for help

By... reading the documentation, for example?
Yeah personally my approach has been lifting heavy and the seafood diet ("when I see food, I eat it"). Much more fun than calorie restriction and no lifting.
> Is that the reason why tech documentation has slowly been evolving into 50-minute step-by-step YouTube tutorials that start with installing the IDE? What happened to the expectation of people being adults?

I think this really proves that writing good documentation is a skill you can hone.

In my opinion, if you're writing a package, gem, etc. for a web framework:

Having extremely concise documentation where you assume the person using your tool is already an expert, so you skip everything except for the precise details related to your tool can be frustrating for anyone looking to use your package unless they happen to be at a skill level where they could have written the package themselves. If folks can't figure out how to use your tool, they'll use something else.

Having extremely verbose documentation to the point where you rewind things back to installing an IDE or explaining what a for loop is for an extension related to pagination is equally as frustrating for most folks because they already have the basics down and want to figure out how to use your package.

I'm a firm believer that good documentation for such a tool or package would include the "why" with a few practical examples along with a guide-like approach of explaining how to get it to work where you use title headings and bullets to make it skimmable as a reference at the same time. You can still make it concise while covering all of that ground. I see nothing wrong with having both text and video.

This way you satisfy a wide range of skill levels without frustrating or alienating anyone. This approach isn't coming at it from an angle to "protect" anyone either. It's optimizing for general success where success is defined as anyone other than yourself can use the package with minimal'ish friction.
The size of a bank has nothing to do with portfolio diversification. You can, as an individual, keep a well diversified portfolio of $100.

Perform better is objective since you provided no metric for anybody to compare, same with resiliency.

Auditing can be done electronically, even via AI now.

It sounds like you’re saying since they have more monetary resources they are more stable, which is true for large companies. Banks don’t own their assets though, a customer can come at any time and remove money. In fact this was rumored to happen in Canada last year, where your 5 major banks went offline after Trudeau opened his mouth about the Freedom Convoy.
China is the world's largest adopter of induction cooktops. Wok cooking isn't a problem. You can even buy induction cooktops specifically shaped for woks. Can we please retire this silly talking point now?
Another poster has suggested that you try a butane torch, but I want to point out, that's not just an alternative, that's a better way to do it. It's much easier to move a small torch than the entire dish, so you can keep the flame moving and get a much more even roast. An aubergine (eggplant for this side of the pond) has enough water content to be pretty forgiving, but if you're roasting pita or something else with low water content, a stove will almost inevitably give you burnt spots which taste bad and contain carcinogens. It's maybe not bad enough to be a dealbreaker for a home cook, but you won't see a nice restaurant doing it this way.

And that's setting aside all the other possibilities a torch opens up, like flan or crusting cheese, which are best done from the top.
Oh definitely not professional. I'm not sure the team that wins even gets money, but a trophy and bragging rights is worth a lot. It's a ton of fun and you can compete (mostly) online each year!

How do you mean? Measured in cycles embedded devices typically have less latency to SRAM.
No, and in the newest iPhone, 14, it was made easier to replace the battery:

What's with the scrolling? Maybe they optimized it for phones but its unnatural on a phone too. And it was a design decision!
I work on the field. Moon dust presents quite unique challenges that have been and continue to be studied at NASA and private industry. Regolith gets charge/discharge cycle that naturally pushes the smallest particles upwards. This plus whatever material is forced during landing, regolith will be around any potential structures and equipment that we bring to the moon. The problem is that it gets through seals, it attaches to equipment like sensors and communication, all causing failures. There are many potential solutions, all that are actively being explored at NASA and industry that include active and passive methods. Active include using electromagnetic fields to remove particles. Passive are using materials and/or manual mechanism. It is a very interesting problem that likely requires very radical active solutions.
They're the same picture
Never seen it finished off on an open flame in Singapore or Malaysia. No one does that. Roti prata is one of my favourite late night snacks. Atleast once a week I go down at 1am to buy it.

If we talk about say poppadoms. Doing that without an open flame produces… it produces something…
Yeah this aspect of the story never made sense to me.

Wouldn't the legislature have had to vote on the 'subtly changed' bill again for it to become law?

If they don't need to, yet it still somehow can become law in amended form, isn't it bypassing the powers of the legislature?
Thank you! I think you correctly guessed what the students were thinking, because I have thought similar things.

One angle here is that academics are (rightly) proud of their specialist knowledge, and often using words like "simply" and "easily" really are a flex whether they know it or not. The best way as student can take this is as inspiration, that one day it will be easy for you, too. I personally believe empathy deserves high praise and recognition, a key part of pedagogy. However, the lack of empathy does not, in turn, deserve derision. Not everyone is a great, or even particularly good, teacher.
This actually isn't a bad idea.
Not wind as we deal with on earth, but that same process that electrically charges the dust also moves it enough that there's a large cloud of sodium atoms in it it's shadow[0]. That and other elements do travel a bit around the surface. Unsure what kind of fluxes we'd have to deal with, but keeping an area dust free would involve some constant effort.

It's not possible that the average modern software developer is just a bit more sensitive about their work than a welder was in 1950?
> She was waiting a whole year to sign the bill and at the end decided add loopholes which made the bill worse than useless.

The changes made it so it would not cover agricultural equipment and big appliances like washing machines and refrigerators.

It still covers electronic devices purchased at retail after it goes into effect (2023-07-1) such as computers, phones, and tablets.

Hew is that "worse than useless"?
I'm not the OP but I share this attitude. The argument is that it is hypocritical to heat your 50-room house using hydrocarbons and fly around in a private jet while telling other people to cut their CO2 usage. If you aren't willing to sacrifice for your cause, why should other people sacrifice anything for it?

Whenever my professor said "it's easy to show" and then moved on it felt very hand wavy. The steps weren't obvious to me and didn't become more obvious as the course went on because no one taught me how to think of the "obvious" thing.

I think it would be funny to write LLMs to generate noise and jam the Reddit signal. Do it slowly so the frog doesn't notice it's getting boiled. I can't be the only one with this thought.

I wouldn't personally act on this, of course. It's not at all constructive. I find it amusing to contemplate, though, and I also believe it's plausible others will execute on a similar vision.

There will be all sorts of other actors using LLMs for their own ends, too. Astroturfers. Trolls. Griefers. You name it.

Umm.... yes?

I mean, who should be blamed for a genocide other than the people who carried it out?

Quite possibly, it's all about simple arithmetic which has always been a bit of a challenge for the brave marketing.

Let's assume the data is correct and only three countries produce 119 thousand tons of lithium per year:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_lithium_p...

Let's assume "from the internet" estimate is at least somewhat correct, and the average EV battery contains 10kg of lithium (this is rounding up the more common 8kg estimate to make it easier to count).

The collapse in lithium prices could mean that the electric car market has been overvalued and that the actual production of electric cars is much lower than 12 million, because lithium batteries are not only used in cars.

Nothing, over time, prices will still begin to rise. Even though the technology and business of recycling lithium from used batteries will somehow develop.

And for sure, this decline will not affect the price of batteries in any way.
About the yellow flame, another explanation would be sodium from the salt. My daughter’s saline nebuliser does that to our cooker, even from the next room.

The worst situation in my college experience was when a prof would go over some mundane part of a proof in excruciating detail, and then hand-wave the important part. I realized later in life it was because they prof didn't understand it, either.
It's a business strategy, not a natural (of "nature") process. Leadership and market changes prompted business changes.

> A legacy of the Pinochet era in Chile is the privatisation of minerals and water, which gives companies ownership of those resources in an area. While mining operations squeeze this already dry region even drier, communities lose their access to potable water, leaving them relying on tankers to deliver it.

“We used to have a river before that now doesn’t exist. There isn’t a drop of water,” says Rivera. “And not only here in Copiapó but in all of Chile, there are rivers and lakes that have disappeared—all because a company has a lot more right to water than we do as human beings or citizens of Chile.”

https://www.nrdc.org/stories/lithium-mining-leaving-chiles-i...

And this is in Chile, the second largest producer of lithium. Just because it goes against your views it being anti-EV, doesn't make it FUD. People have other types of grievances like the human cost of lithium mining, even for the amazing storage capability of lithium batteries.
When your heat pump is using emergency heat yes it'd be "better" to burn natural gas to do so directly that to burn gas to make electricity to do resistive heating.

However you need to look more at the average scenario to draw a complete picture. When your heat pump isn't in emergency heating then it's more efficient to burn the gas for electricity to power that heat pump than it is to burn the gas for heat (moving heat is substantially cheaper than making heat). So how often is your heat pump in regular heating vs. emergency heat? And then is it in emergency heating often enough to justify having a secondary piece of infrastructure to get gas to your house where you then also need a gas furnace which is more expensive than some resistive heat strips are?

That would explain why the bill not-yet-amended to the governor's preferences could not become law without another vote.

But it doesn't explain how the amended-to-the-governor's-preferences version became law.
Most Americans already have electric stoves, and its disproportionately higher income people who still cook with gas.

I know this is all based more on vibes than facts though.
Right, back in the days AMD CPUs lacked thermal protection and would die quickly if the heatsink wasn't mounted properly[1]. Intel had thermal protection and would just clock down the CPU.

These days there's a lot of protection built in. For example, the voltage regulator ICs they use on the motherboard should all have thermal, over-current, under-voltage and other protection built-in.

So yeah I do think it's newsworthy that a modern CPU can burn itself up. I would not expect that, even overclocked.

Forget burning, even pumping gas to residences is itself a big source of emissions, because of how leaky the pipes are. Between two to seven percent of all gas put into the system is lost directly to the atmosphere, and it's a very potent greenhouse gas.

One way or the other, it needs to go away. It's not performative, it's necessary for achieving long-term emissions goals, and it's low-hanging fruit.
If you are ignoring the cost of the compiler, and a whole host of other things - sure. But the same can be said for most any modern programming language. A lot of Julia's public benchmarks are not idiomatic Julia or packages were created to elide how nonidiomatic they are. Julia isn't a slouch after precompilation, but the time to burn in code can be longer than the runtime and the compilation time of the code in other languages by orders of magnitude. It's great for academic benchmarks though! Huge pain for CI and development.

this was rejected once. called big brother key in the lists if you wanna search for context and educate yourself better.

argument was this workflow is already possible. just encrypt an archive version as needed.

the original proposal asked for a always on key and was implemented with no user feedback. heh.

this uses a subkey on the original to key. less bad but still bad.

if more than one person must sign/decrypt, they should share the ownership of the private keys. you can already do these hacks where two private keys can unlock the secret to a third key etc. plenty of solutions.

this will just be used as a way to get a backdoor by offering less resistance on a corp environment. remeber, control comes not from forcing you to do something, but making you not care.
This thread is getting quite confusing. OK, your argument is that only a tiny minority of people are engaged in misandry like constantly talking about incels, and they are exaggerated by the internet, and most of society actually cares a lot about problems that affect men. Is that right?

I gotta ask because you seem to be disagreeing with the thesis of this thread, but then it appears like you keep rephrasing the points:

TheLoafOfBread says: "Society does not care about male problems. Let's just label them incels or terrorists and be done with it."

Your response: "there's tons of research being done on men as well. Incels and Japanese Hikikomori, conspiracy theories and online extremism is more male oriented"

Yes that's what he said?? Academics research girls to solve their problems, they research men as problems. Put another way, if this is really the view of only a tiny minority that is exaggerated by social media engagement optimization, how can there also be "tons of research" on these things?
Fall of the Western Roman Empire vibes everywhere in the west these days, outside maybe of tech. But even that depends on the infrastructure, human and physical, that the rest of the system provides so it’s just a matter of time.

Nepo has brought it on himself, losing that dramatic 12th game while leading in the score with a an unbelievable blunder. Hope he comes back for the next title challenge.

Thanks to the commentators to make the game accessible to us 1100 elo ><.

It's funny because at my level I thought it made 100% sense to decline draw and go Rg6. With two beautiful passed pawns and a bishop in the middle ding had a clear plan and very low risk (to me) to lose while Nepo had to do so many super accurate queen moves to defend... which seemed impossible (to me) in time pressure. It's basically (to me, again) the same problem than the super long game 6 in 2022 against carlsen.

The landlord is supposedly legally enforced to put the money in the chamber of commerce, but ALAS not all of them will (even if it's illegal) and many will also try to scam you out of your deposit if they see they can get away with it.
I didn't expect Ding winning Nepo in the tiebreaks after watching him getting crushed by the pressure and time in previous games. Well played! The last game has been incredible. Watching the world cup being decided in less than 10 minutes was something I didn't expect.
We aren't grounded enough in reality anymore. For younger people, this is related to the twin evils of social media and video games, both of which are more captivating than ever. The disengagement from reality can also be seen in being shut inside during the pandemic, decline in teen employment and potentially even grade inflation. Teens are insulated from negative consequences and it's debatable that this is making them more miserable.

While we can't change society, we can make personal choices or choices within our families. I would say that it's beneficial to recognize parts of the modern world that are illusory and attempt to scale them back or avoid them.
I'm really glad it was decided in rapid if it couldn't be in classical. The first three rapid games were of incredibly high quality, just as good as the best games in Classical in terms of accuracy and much more exciting than you'd think just hearing they were draws. The last game had its ups and downs but seemed to be a clear draw until the very end. Under time-pressure both players made some mistakes but there is no other way for a winner to emerge really.
Yeah that is the only use case I would approve.
It's an ugly pile of concrete, I think the term is 'brutalist'.

Electric stovetops are about 30 dollars for two-plate solutions, if you decide for yourself that natural gas is not for you.
This was touched on a bit in the artical -- A problem that I've always had with OOP (as in class & method syntax) languages. I'm always worrying about the functions (i.e. code) too much. There is this tendency to abstract from the data prematurely, ending up with many small data silos that talk to each other without real understanding what's happening in the global picture. That's often not a great way to design data structures. Of course, syntax is just syntax, and in most languages the OOP part is only optional, but for me this has been a real effect. I've had more success just constraining myself to procedural.

Indeed. Or, put differently, proclaiming things to be "easy" in your documentation mainly serves to scream "go away!" to new users.
If it's a "distraction", it's because reactionaries are making it one. I don't have a private jet or an F-10,000 (I don't even own a car), and I can see that the pro-gas crowd hasn't considered how good induction cooktops and heat pumps have gotten, and how rapidly they're still improving. The writing is on the wall, there's no future for piping gas to residences, so if you're a government you might as well prepare to stop investing in gas infrastructure now.
