I don't think it's an advertising thing though it could play into it.

- Eating a varied healthy diet is a lot more expensive than eating a varied unhealthy diet (if you can eat kale, rice, and beans all day then good for you but most can't)

- We're creatures of habit, if we grow up eating unhealthy we are more likely to continue to as adults. Eating healthy for most people requires cooking for yourself, many never learn this skill or see their parents putting daily effort into meals when they are children.

- Lack of public education around the topic, lack funding for free healthy lunches for school children

I had a friend when I was in school who had the most messed up disgusting teeth I'd ever seen. He had dental insurance, a decent job, decent pay. Turns out he never grew up learning that you're supposed to brush your teeth regularly so he just never made a habit out of it.
With the kind of mixed script used in Japan and that used to be used in Korea, they're not exactly necessary (still useful, but not necessary). Neither language uses prefixes much, so a sinograph is a pretty reliable indicator of the beginning of a word, followed by the inflection written out in a phonetic script like hiragana or hangeul. In Japanese's case, a switch from hiragana to katakana also indicates a word boundary and highlights that the word's likely a nonsinitic loan or the name of a plant or animal species or other technical term.

Say, for example:

"Korean people eat kimchi"

In Japanese/Korean, the structure would be:

Korean-person-topic marker-kimchi-object marker-eat-present tense.

In Japanese mixed script, that looks like:

韓国人はキムチを食べます。and would be read as "kankokujinwa kimuchiwo tabemasu".

Splitting it with spaces:

韓国人は キムチを 食べます。

The heftier kanji denoting "Korean person" and at the start of "eat" should be clear even to the untrained eye, while people who've studied the language can easily tell that キムチ is "kimuchi" written in katakana. The sentence is pretty easy to parse without spaces, at the cost of using one of the most insane writing systems in the world.

Now, what if we wrote the entire thing in hiragana instead?

かんこくじんはきむちをたべます。

... yyeaahh. Spaces. Please.

かんこくじんは きむちを たべます。There, much better, though almost no one fluent in Japanese has practice reading stuff like that.

In Korean, without spaces we'd have:

한국사람들은김치를먹어요. Again, similar problems. Korea has adopted spaces now that they don't use sinographs, so we'd have:

한국 사람들은 김치를 먹어요. (han'guk sa'ram'deul'eun kim'chi'reul mog'o'yo)

If we wrote "Korean person" with the same Sinitic loans in the Japanese sentence, we might get:

한국인들은 김치를 먹어요. (han'gug'in'deul'eun kim'chi'reul mog'o'yo)

Spaces clearly do help.
A better way of putting it would be:

Developers have been begging for years to be able to code for iPad on iPad, wouldn’t allowing this be an easy first step towards the iPad only dystopia? Do you have an explanation for why it’s still almost impossible?
I agree, and that’s a good argument for an alternative icing model that includes a one time payment for a version, I think jetbrains does this (and a discount on subsequent update patches)

… I identified this bloat as a big problem a few years ago. People want to pack up a machine learning model into a system like pip, maven and/or Docker and this frequently means a foundation model (1 gig+) gets copied several times in the process of deployment. In a production environment where the model gets loaded occasionally this is bad enough but in a dev environment it can turn a 10 second process into a several minute process…

>The other was headless and you had access to the DOM. Why no one built interesting applications with the latter is beyond me.

Frameworks, HTML5 or even DHTML/AJAX didn't exist at the time. If you were already paying the cost of invoking Java/Flash/ActiveX, why would you access the DOM and pay extra rendering price - for an interface suited for documents, not applications?
Yes I was aware of those, but they still lack hires, wrap around visual field and hires, non-janky graphics. But if you're satisfied, have at it.
Absolutely, the problem I'm referring to is if Apple changed the kernel and not only built an application on top of it. I don't know, but maybe Apple just built an application on top, which seems sensible.
This was my experience, too.

I had a sick 2, and for a second 3 column resume, and that always got mangled.

Even the single column LaTeX resume had challenges.

Never had an issue with MS Word. If I'm sending a resume to a person I know (e.g. met at a Linux User Group, etc.), I'll go with the LaTeX resumes, but otherwise you gotta get past ATS and that means MS Word.
Agreed, Yud does seem to have been right about the course things will take but I'm not confident he actually has any solutions to the problem to offer

The Federal Government covers 90% of the Medicaid expansion costs. Which means that there is a some cost in terms of state taxes.

But that's not the reason I usually see expressed. It usually comes expressed like this:

“The health care industrial complex made up of hospitals, medical device manufacturers and pharmaceutical companies are the great robber barons of our time,” Oliva said. “The term robber baron is defined by government manipulation, monopolizing industry and price gouging.”

“We must reform Medicaid and double down on pursuing common-sense policy reforms to unleash innovation and increase access that can all lead to lowering costs,” Zander said.

I'm afraid I don't entirely understand what that means.
> That's basically every large industry.

Yes, I'm against federal subsidies in many industries. If it's a public messaging system such as USPS, why does it deliver so much spam? How about we just pay for it and stop that part? Everyone loves that with Fastmail vs Gmail - how about we do it for our national message passing?

How did you arrive at capitalism when I criticized federal funding? You think the idea of a federal govt and paying for stuff with public taxes is a core pillar of capitalism?
Nope, reading the printed paper on... paper. :)
Because Burnham's neoconservatism is a sort of fusion of Marxist vanguardism and Walter Lippmann's panels of experts making decisions for the Phantom Public and selling them with lies. Burnham thought that the only possible way to maintain a civilization was through a small group of executive elites with access to the truth, but who kept the mass of the ignorant public docile through patriotic myths and slogans, and policing.

There's no possible stable order for Burnham within a society that is not run by a minority in its own interest.
It reveals an inner belt, akin to the solar system's asteroid belt but dustier and more extended; an intermediate belt; and a previously imaged outer belt that's analogous to our Kuiper Belt.

How could something analogous to our Kuiper belt possibly reflect/emit enough light to be visible as a cloudy ring? There is no way it isn't orders of magnitude more massive than the Kuiper belt.

It's not as easy as rezoning. there is significant overhead retrofitting commercial real-estate with the plumbing needed for residential. ( as well as many other changes) It's doable but the right incentives would have to be put in place by the city. However, everything i've seen of the city is their policies are very anti landlords.

100%. Whereas in the prior decade there were hardware limitations to device convergence (e.g. lack of CPU power, RAM), this is a no longer an issue and software is the roadblock is most cases. Ironically Apple threw open the doors when they not only put the M1 chip into the iPad Pro, but also into the iPad Air.

One reason for this slow transition is likely due to the legacy software support requirements. Microsoft seems to have vastly overestimated the complexity involved in porting Windows OS to ARM through its many attempts: first with Windows RT, followed by Windows 10S, and most recently tighter developer hardware tie-in with Project Volterra. Apple probably isn't too keen to follow this playbook - opting instead to just keep iOS and macOS separate and gradually drop x86 support entirely from macOS.

As an occasional Samsung Dex user, the benefit of having "one device to rule them all" is obvious and overall experience has been good. But to play devil's advocate, Samsung's revenues is heavily hardware-based so they'd much prefer to sell you multiple devices.
144.1 deaths per year. Presumably these studies lasted multiple years. Though I'll admit this was less than I expected, which would explain the differing results.
"Gaslighting"
Why should competitors be able to advertise on their competition's websites free of charge? Further why should a company allow its competitors to steal their customers?
Am I understand right that Janet becames a Lisp (in your understanding of Lisp) if two conditions will be fullfilled: if everything will be reimplemented on linked lists with CAR/CDR everywhere and also a byte code interpreter will somehow coerce all the C syntax with ability to recompile all C code in such a way to fullfill a "no compile time" condition and that's it?

Sorry for speaking about things I do not understand, just I am searching for a comprehensive answer in "C vs Janet" question. I have a feel that there is something beautiful in Janet but I don't know what, so I have started this tree of discussion.
United States banks do not tend to be organized towards meeting the needs of depositors who don't live in the united states and/or aren't authorized to live in the united states. Most of the higher yield accounts are limited to natural persons, so banking through a US company setup for that purpose isn't likely to get you the yields you're looking for, although it could likely get you FDIC protection at near-zero yields, which isn't nothing.

You might have better luck looking for an international brokerage that can let you transact in the US brokered Certificate of Deposit (CD) market. Many of those offerings are also FDIC insured, and the marketplace dynamics may mean the bank only transitively vets the customers, and brokerage vetting may be more flexible?

Of course, a lot of US brokerages also don't want to work with customers who don't live in the us and/or aren't authorized to live in the us.
Global advertising spending is around $750 billion. Assuming advertisers believe most of their money is well-spent, can I infer the percentage of human beings that actually do ignore advertising is small?
It's a public safety issue as well, so far 240 ambulances have been delayed due to the blockades. I wonder if a local authority can be successfully prosecuted if a patient were to die as a result of the delay?

Same if someone were to die in a house fire, because the fire brigade could not get there on time? I personally believe that those responsible for implementing this scheme should see time behind bars, possibly for criminal negligence, should that happen.

By the way, in the comments section of that Daily Mail article, the majority of the readers disagree with the blockades. I'm not sure if that's representative of the whole of the general public or not.

Daily Mail readers appear to place the blame on the World Economic Forum as the cause, I'm not sure if that's conspiracy theory terrority or not?

However it's likely to be the work of environmental pressure groups, who generally do not represent the will of the people. They are a minority dictating the rules to the majority.

Note Google search is biased heavily in favor of these schemes, I had to use Bing to get any results that were against them.
Yes. That is the state of a lot of education policy, I'm afraid.
“We need to normalize building products that don’t last generations or eras, rather just for a moment, season, or cycle. And we need to do it with open minds, without reinforcing an implicit hierarchy of aspiration among them. Otherwise, we’ll force everything into a forever game that it’s not fit for.”
My kids ask for it weekly. There are two locations I go to, both have crazy lines. One of them spills out into the street and causes traffic problems. Always feels like a poor way to spend my time. Maybe its because I go at meal times, dunno. Saw the Chick-Fil-A line spilling into the street at 2:30pm one day, its like that a lot. Good for them, makes it not my first choice.
I dunno, everyone pivoted to AI because it’s clearly a massive force multiplier but they’re all bringing those gains back to whatever they were working on previously. I’ve already seen some great uses of AI generated voices, scripts, textures, and sky spheres in VR. AI is also a huge resource for learning how to do things you’ve never attempted before. Shit’s going to be popping off all over the place this year and I don’t think it’ll stop.
Not all industries will be equally impacted by WFH. SF is being gutted because the only equipment a programmer needs is a computer. If you're looking for a healthy metro area that will weather the WFH realignment, look for one whose primary industries require equipment that you can't pick up at Best Buy. Things like healthcare, biotech, and research universities (just to name a few) will still require butts in seats. Off the top of my head, Boston, Pittsburgh, Cleveland will be fine. NYC might be impacted because of the finance industry, but it's also plenty diversified.

(Furthermore, in the long term SF will be fine because the geography and climate is beautiful, and people will always be clamoring to live there regardless of industry, in the same way people desire to live in Honolulu. But it's in for a rough time in the near term as the tech industry diasporizes.)
All of the above, and also:

If it’s written in Rust, the tooling (Cargo; the Rust language server; etc) make it much easier than most other languages to jump in and fix something or add a new feature. I’ve contributed to projects written in Ruby, Python, Java, C#, C++, Haskell and many others, and every Rust project I’ve ever touched has been much easier/quicker to go from `git clone` to PR submitted.

That may not be appealing to people who never fix or extend the software they use; for me, as someone who finds bugs and deficiencies in almost everything I lay eyes on, knowing that a piece of software is written in a language that is the least likely to frustrate me and suck up my time when I inevitably have to dive in and tweak something is a huge competitive selling point over similar software written in other languages.
It just uses the accelerometer, it's just as neat and inaccurate as you can guess.
If you're a city dwelling blue tribe member, read and reread this comment until you can understand where it's coming from. Most "gun control" legislation has resulted in arbitrary technical restrictions, utterly ineffective for their stated purpose, enforced in a draconian manner where everything is either perfectly legal or an immediate federal felony. Calls to "ban all guns" are a choir-preaching pipe dream, and there's little reason to believe that such a push would produce a different result this time.

What we actually need is consistent legislation across the board that removes the minefield for most gun owners, while focusing on graduated regulation of the states of people who own/carry any type of gun, making sure they're mentally competent and attached to reality - especially as social media pushes more people to become detached.
I think you're being too speculative here. If you're really trying to minimize paying taxes, then you should be moving to a state with no income tax, don't buy property there (because states with no income tax tend to make up for it with high property taxes), and don't live in a city because cities will have local taxes. But you move to NYC, you do so because NYC is awesome and living here is great. I wouldn't pay less taxes to live in the middle of nowhere.

No, it just requires constantly feeling hunger pains. Along with bouts of lightheadedness, distraction, and things of that nature.

There are a variety of reasons people get fat, and a variety of reasons people stay fat. Treating the specific reasons for the specific people is a lot safer, and easier, than just having people eat less.

For me, I'm a stress eater. I need more money, and better credentials, and then I can get career tracked in a way that will reduce my stress enough to eat better.

Exercise does help, and I should be doing more. I exercise best (most consistently) with machines, but don't have the cash flow for a gym membership anymore. I also exercised great with rollerblading, but the serious accidents I had doing that make it a bad idea without an indoor rink, and the nearest indoor rink is both expensive and a ways away. I have to drive to work, so I try parking about a 10 minute walk away and walking uphill. It's something, at least.
> We didn't know anything about diet thousands of years ago beyond "this tastes nice" and "I'm hungry"

I'm not so sure. Some ancient societies had a pretty advanced idea of what makes a good diet. And people in any time period can tell that "if I eat this way, I feel better and if I eat that way, I feel worse".

Co-founder here, let me add some context :)

We got frustrated with the time and effort required to code and maintain custom web scrapers, so we built an LLM-based solution that can extract data from any website in the format you want. AI should automate tedious and un-creative work, and web scraping definitely fits this description.

We're using LLMs to generate web scrapers and data processing steps on the fly that adapt to website changes. Using GPT for every data extraction, as most comparable tools do, would be way too expensive and very slow, but using LLMs to generate the scraper code and subsequently adapt it to website modifications is highly efficient.

Try it out for free on our playground https://kadoa.com/playground and let us know what you think! And please don't bankrupt us :)

## How it works (the playground uses a simplified version of this):

- Loading the website: automatically decide what kind of proxy and browser we need

- Analysing network calls: Try to find the desired data in the network calls

- Preprocessing the DOM: remove all unnecessary elements, compress it into a structure that GPT can understand

- Slicing: Slice the DOM into multiple chunks while still keeping the overall context

- Selector extraction: Use GPT (or Flan-T5) to find the desired information with the corresponding selectors

- Data extraction in the desired format

- Validation: Hallucination checks and verification that the data is actually on the website and in the right format

- Data transformation: Clean and map the data (e.g. if we need to aggregate data from multiple sources into the same format). LLMs are great at this task too

The vision is a universal API for web data :)

EDIT: The heavy traffic is leading to rate limiting issues, sorry about that! You can still check the example extractions though.
A "booming" NYC is not necessarily a purely positive thing.

SF and NYC used to be fairly comparable as far as cost of living goes but now renting in SF is comparable to a dozen other metros (eg. $3k for a 1 bed, under $4k for a 2 bed) but in NYC it's a now an absurdly expensive outlier eg. $5k+ for a 1 bed in a convenient area in Manhattan or Brooklyn.

Beyond that eating out/going out/uber+taxis all seemed much more expensive in NYC than SF when I visited last month.

Interesting. This syntax reminds me a bit of the R package data.table's terseness for joins:

B[A, on="x"] # A left join B
B[A] # same, assuming x is the key column on both, like K's lj [x;y]
A[B, on=.(x, y<=foo)] # right non-equi join
Hence why you shouldn't try snide sarcasm and instead make your points directly and earnestly.
