You can conceivably get a Maillard reaction with toasting some spices (e.g. cumin seed) where you wouldn’t just by throwing them in a stew. But I agree with your overall point. The 1-2 tbsp olive oil is -everywhere-. Also, better to use canola oil for browning meat.
I've never seen that anywhere - across like 4 or 5 different universities and three countries. Even if it had happened why would it be at anything other than the end of the year or maybe semester for a single semester course?

Modern work comes with modern distractions. All these emails and phone notifications ruin modern people from getting into flow states which require a lot of attention.

I believe that people enter the flow state much less today than before smartphones came along.

Recipe writers routinely lie about how long a recipe takes, too. Most reporting a time requirement much under 30 minutes get there by ignoring how long it takes to process & prep the various ingredients. "15-minute meals" often take 10-15 minutes of prep before you can start them.

Have you read Bill Barr's opinion piece in the WSJ about the use of military force against Mexican cartels, in support of the bill authorising such use of military capabilities by Reps Waltz and Crenshaw? I never said this war was unavoidable--actually it was very avoidable. Nor did I say Putin had no other choice, so I don't know what youre on about there.

The primary benefit of transformers is that they generally can reference things within the context, but RNNs have trouble with that. The trade off is that transformers have memory and compute requirements quadratic in the context length.

I am not a physicist, but what I have read from critics (badly paraphrased):

During the hype phase of string theory, every major university wanted to get in on the game, and devoted large amounts of funding towards hiring researchers with a background in string theory. If you weren't one of those people, you were at a severe disadvantage, and might not get hired at all.

String theory hovered up tons of cash in university budgets, and majorly fucked over a lot of careers. The result of all this money has been no actual scientifically proven results despite decades of research.
I too look forward to the post scarcity society that replicators would enable, but until then we as a species really need to learn to rein it in before we consume ourselves into a corner we can't get out of.
One suspects that the delay was not caused by the complexity of the implementation, but rather uncertainty around the necessity or desirability of it.
still won't be prefect, all those extra quotes are bad for a heavily used human readable configs format
Just off the top of my head I can think of a few cases where we easily have 100-1000x that on a single table in shared node on kube, with an ebs volume (point being, bog standard, if a tad large, commodity hardware). If you properly index things and your workload isn't too crazy in a way that needs access to all of this at once (e.g. point lookups with some recency bias), classic RDBMSs have this use case covered - and it's achievable by anyone!
that's what arxiv used to be, but that's not what it is anymore
Why would you expect performance to be constant when normalized to power utilisation?

If your 16 bit floats perform about the same as 32 bit floats in an absolute sense, then they will probably perform even better when normalised for power utilisation.

And if 16 bit work, 15 bit floats might perform well, too, for all we know. That's what the original commenter was getting at, I think.
Not all of them - the Time one from 2014 (link number 3) actually links to the Wikipedia article that has a section about the VIP paedophile ring claims (that the article is mostly about) being discredited in 2015 [1].

Thomas Keller does not lie about this. It takes 6 hours on the stove.
> But what about 32k contexts, or beyond? At some point, as token size increases, the ability of a human to give a highly precise and detailed answer decreases

War and Peace is over 580,000 words long. Chapter one is ~2,020 words which encoded for GPT3 is ~2,956 tokens (lots of longer, older words and proper nouns eg. "scarlet-liveried footman" is six tokens), so we might expect the entire book to be ~750,000 tokens long.

Many people could reason about the book in its entirety. They would not have an encyclopedic recall of random dates and side characters or be able to quote any passage, but they could perform deep analysis on it.
I was curious how fast I could do a dark roux (notably, after burning my first one and needing to restart), and I actually managed one in under 8 minutes, and even took a photo to document such:

And yeah, the key really is stirring constantly, and riding the stove knob to keep the heat right.

My stupid thing that I do that sometimes burns it is stopping stirring when I turn off the heat when I'm done. Pan is still hot enough to burn it, if you don't get it out of there, or add vegetables quickly.
For me, re-reading triggers a trip down Memory Lane. I have fond memories of the 90s so I just love to revisit to feed my nostalgia.

Plus, I really enjoy Raymond Chen’s writing style. Lastly, I want to remember the technical details, and re-reading helps with that.

Since it's impossible to design anything great in tech on first attempt, what is the road to improvement without versions?

Them being suspected of having weapons of mass destruction is hardly sufficient cause for war. There are, after all, many countries that we know for sure have them.
Canola is more likely to cause inflammation. Olive oil and coconut oil are much better from that stand point.
It is a system of four coupled ODEs from biology. I was using LSODA with relatively tight rtol and atol. Now in diffrax I use Tsit5, with adaptive step size control.

Something really annoying about this system is that for a non-negligible portion of the parameter space, an adaptive step solver would fail and give up at some point during the integration because the step size converges to zero. This was preventing me from doing large parameter searches. Now, because diffrax makes it easy to specify the step size controller, I first try to solve the system with a PID step size control, and if this fails, I rerun it with small fixed steps, which is slower but always goes through the end. This guarantees that I will always get a complete solution, and that it will still be fast in 95% of cases, which is really a huge improvement.
I know a guy who memorized "Fahrenheit 451" back in the '60s, and went on to memorize a dozen other books - I think it was a requirement of the anti-establishment cult he was in at the time. Anyhow, his recall is still pretty fantastic.
His lectures on linear algebra are very high quality. 61 years in any role is unimaginable by todays standards.
After looking at the recipes in question, I suspect that some of these writers are merely using the term Caramelized in a loose, informal (or, if you prefer, "technically-incorrect") sense.

When what they more-precisely meant is lightly softened, translucent - a state of onionhood used in no shortage of recipes as an intermediary step during the cooking process.

The writers are therefore perhaps guilty of casual syntax misuse, as opposed to deliberate or wilful mistruth.

Losely related: I can recommend the Linksys WRT series. These are all OpenWRT compatible and can easily be reflashed.

They're also BPF/XDP compatible, though they obviously have no netronome smartNICs in there.

Also, golang can easily cross-compile to them, and the static binaries work without issues in case you want to do more with it :)

Catan is merely ok from a serious gaming perspective, but for most people sitting around having fun, it's a go-to. There's value in it looking nice and being easy to understand, and I can see it staying popular 20 years from now. The top listed modern games have only ever come up in niche board game group settings for me, while even chess and Diplomacy have been much more popular. This is only my experience, but I'm probably not alone in thinking the top games are all very uncommon.

I've actually only ever played Diplomacy over Backstabbr.com with friends, so analogous to email/postal play (if you still count that as a board game). Completed several games now, and I've been wanting to do it in-person. That 1900 variant has more detailed notes than any other variant I've seen, and I'd like to give it a try!
For people who don't know posits (like me), https://www.cs.cornell.edu/courses/cs6120/2019fa/blog/posits... provides a good introduction, if somewhat tongue-in-cheek.

I think SimCity 4 is the best city simulator game.

Cities Skylines is an excellent city painter; however.
That's how Upload Academy plan on doing it - small Go app you download and it pulls down all our content in a non-DRM protected format for you to consume however you like. Even the (forthcoming) cybersec labs, programming labs, etc., are just binaries you can run locally.
Psychedelics don't "cure" depression, but they can show you the way with the right intention. That can sound very woowo to a bunch of scientists and engineers, but over the years I've found it's the easiest way to explain it.
I don't think your argument holds.

When people experience search degradation (which I definitely do), they experience that while using the product EXACTLY like they did for years. Why else would they experience the degradation. It is most striking when something that used to work suddenly doesn't work any more.
The commentary along with the first milestones achieved by Elon M's SpaceX and Starlink speak of a global scitech education initiative, perhaps even includes Khan Academy, you could see there among those communities if they have a slot for your talent. Look for contact points on their webpage closest to that initiative?
What channel? I have an application for sequence models I think might be novel, and I'd like to be able to get credit and help research it if possible. Probably somebody has already done it, but I cannot search well enough to find related literature.
Thanks for your sharing, idea is amazing.
Fortunately this is just the highest denomination, in 2016 it was all high denominations and thus much more painful.

Ketamine saved my life. It’s proven to be extremely effective against suicidal ideation. The trip is definitely part of it.

I’ve switched to shrooms and one trip every 3-6 months seems to reliably keep depression and panic disorder at bay. It did require some work and I really had to process some awful memories from my childhood.

But these things did more for me than years of psychiatric meds ever did - literally dozens of them. Mirtazapine made me gain weight - 60 lbs in a year. Prozac gave me bruxism and I cracked 3 dental crowns in a month. Effexor turned me into a suicidal yet somehow also emotionless zombie. I got addicted to Ativan and couldn’t sleep without it. I’m off it all, and happier than I’ve ever been.
The paper is about processing of isolated syllables, it might find the same thing for dog brains, since it is also all at the level of the brainstem. It doesn't seem to have anything to do with Chomsky's work or fMRI stuff Chomsky has talked about.
At the same time you can agree the library having a few books where the protagonist has two mom's or two dad's isn't reducing the literacy rate of the school, right?

I'm still trying to square your "every parent has an absolute right to decide what their own children are exposed to" with parents who feel the round Earth is a lie.
Yes, the arcologies were fun, but, they were also game-breaking, and building them completely changed the nature of the game into something unrealistic that frankly didn't really work. So not having them isn't a huge loss.

Why do smart people need to be rewarded more? What's so special about being smart, that this is the main axis of merit? You never hear the same said about, say, being strong, healthy, patient, cold blooded (maybe this one), ... It's always "smart". "Smart" must be rewarded. Colleges must pick "smart". Not being facetious. I want to learn more about the origins and apologetics of the cult of smart.

("hard work" I can see. That certainly has pedigree - toiling the land to please god, that sort of thing, there's something virtuous about it).
Still doesn't excuse telemetry for something as trivial though.

I prefer SimCity 2000. I feel like it hit a pretty good sweet spot between simulation and fun (which is to say, not even a vague gesturing at anything remotely realistic). Realistic simulation in games is almost universally less fun than simple, predictable game logic. Probably the most extreme example of this is chess: way more enjoyable than real warfare.

Back on topic though. My beef with SimCity 4 is that it added a bunch of details that make it less fun, like micromanagement of the funding of individual hospitals and police stations. The added complexity didn’t bring any new profound shifts in thinking or strategy, it just created more busywork for the player.

SimCity 2000 has almost none of that. It’s just a really solid and super fun game. It’s quite balanced (when you resist the temptation to use cheats) without being overly hard. So you can sit back (with a cold beverage of your choice) and enjoy a nice relaxing time playing mayor and seeing your little city develop before your eyes!
accesstoinsight.org has been online for many years now. Very similar content, with less stuff from Bhikkhu Bodhi and more from a guy named Thanissaro.
Your analogy is completely off base. There’s endurance sports and interval type of sports. The examples you provided are what seems to be interval type of sports.

High focus and high intensity is not sustainable over duration. Performance degrades over time without recovery.
It's great for the most part. They've locked down the kernel modules a bit, so I cannot build cross platform images with qemu, but other than that it's pretty slick and seamless. It's based on a debian container and feels like a much better WSL.

I bought the https://frame.work Chromebook a few months ago, for a hardware refresh, but have been on this setup for 4 years now. If I need a real linux environment, I spin up a cloud vm as needed. The taller screen is actually nice and I hook it to two external monitors without issue.

So even in your extreme case, you don't expect to make even close to a reasonable amount of profit for your efforts.

How would it be so much worse for you to make no profit at all? $50 from the position of a student is a significant amount of money. In all likelihood, that is going to leave each student with a more significant financial impact than the profit you would be missing out on for not charging them: and it is multiplied to each student who buys the book.

The ultimate dilemma here is not whether or not you should be compensated. It's how. Whether you choose to charge for this book or not, this strategy is untenable.

Rule 34 being what it is, there is an adult version of Westworld called Sexworld (1978) and it's not too shabby, they threw enough budget and production values at it to make it interesting. It explores the theme of what happens when you get to live out your fantasies in some surprising ways. The movie can be found online in the usual places.

Also, the list left off Futureworld (1976) which is much better than Westworld and featured some CGI that was ground-breaking for the time.
You seem to imply that none of the EU member countries are violating their citizens' internet privacy on a regular basis. I recognize that there are certain countries with _much_ stronger privacy protections in place, and that might not have something on the scale of FISA (from some of the compliance work I've done in the past, Germany comes to mind, but I'm sure there are a strong set of others).

But I'm curious if you explicitly believe that EU/EEA member countries unilaterally _don't_ spy on their citizens. Because I'd be inclined to say that's unlikely (at best) given what we know about the nature of intelligence organizations, namely that they're basically data lake vacuums in the 21st century.
I'm going to miss pushshift, their service was valuable for catching reddit moderators performing underhanded censorship of posts they didn't agree with. Reddit is walking a thin line between becoming a dumpster fire and being the one stop shop for a good portion of the worlds interaction. I would personally prefer to see reddit kick all of their moderators to the curb and stop catering to the snowflakes of the world.
If these workers could get remote jobs, they would- but they can’t. Amazon knows this, and probably can’t wait for them to quit.

For now all they can do is complain about having to go to an office to be a spoiled, overpaid tech worker. If I had that job I would be keeping my mouth shut and enjoying the paycheck, but to each their own I suppose.
Non-malicious forks would choose a completely different name and mention the original in their README.

Name squatting relies on people making a typo and installing your stuff. That cannot be innocent, come on now.

Your link also does not prove anything except that people naively make extensions with the same name that feels cute or easily discoverable to them. I see no name squatting in that list, not in the top 10-20 anyway.
1-2 tbsp of oil is enough to improve the thermal conductivity between the pan and the meat. you're not cooking the meat in that oil. then the meat starts releasing it's own oil (and water) and continues the process without needing additional oil.

if you don't put in a bit of oil, then you're searing one side in a dry pan, and the second side in an oiled pan. and if you're only putting a bit of oil in and it's all in contact with the meat there's really no reason to worry about smoke point, use whatever oil is handy.
You're in for a treat:

Actually surprised there isn't more of a flow of tech talent to NYC these days. Or maybe it's actively happening, but we just don't talk about it that much.

The Bay offers great nature, climate and slightly lower cost of living, but just about everything else is more interesting in NYC/Brooklyn.
I agree with your evaluation of the top listed games on BGG.

Catan can be fun, especially the first few dozen times you play it. But it wears thin even for a casual group. We have better casual games these days. And even back then, we did: I found that eg Bohnanza released about the same time as Catan holds up much better to repeated plays; even though it looks much less impressive at first. The big problem with Catan is that the initial settlement placement determines so much of the rest of the game, and there aren't that many meaningful decisions left in the rest of the game.

I did most of my in-person games of Diplomacy when I was working in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire. I was working for a startup spun off from the local university, and noticed that the university societies were actually (mostly) open to the general public. So I just joined the Diplomacy society.
Restaurant quality is real and it’s because high end restaurants usually buy the best produce at wholesale and pay for stuff a grocery store can’t. For example they get much better blackberries in top restaurants because they need to be handled extremely gently when ripe: a grocery store can’t put that stuff out on shelves or it would get destroyed.
In 2016, Indian government banned all notes of Rs500 & Rs1000 denomination with immediate effect and launched a new note of Rs2000 denomination. Then they found out that because the new note was larger than earlier notes, and ATMs were not designed to fit the new note. They had to spend weeks to upgrade all the ATM machines to accept new notes where whole county was in lines at the banks to exchange their money. [1]

Now they are discontinuing the note of Rs2000 denomination that they launched in 2016. People have till September 30 to exchange Rs2000 denomination notes for other currency. But one person can only exchange Rs. 20,000 at a time. Guess now it's again time to line up in banks. [2]

I fear for a future where financial privacy is non-existant. While I recognize the potential for abuse and enabling for bad actors to skirt laws, I think it should be private by default with measures that allow for auditing. For example, Monero's ability to publish view keys. Sadly, I think many governments will instead rush to the authoritarian option instead.

Edit: if someone wants to enlighten me on why I shouldn't worry about the surveillance capitalist dystopia that's slowly rolling out before our eyes, I'd love to hear it.
Then they just ignore the law altogether. Like FBI making almost 300k illegal searches. Because they can. https://townhall.com/columnists/kevinmccullough/2023/05/21/f...

Musk: How do we find meaning in life if A.I. can do your job better?
I tend to find the discussion around AI, AGI, ChatGPT doomsday somewhat incoherent and try not to follow them. But, I found Elon Musk's reaction in this interview to the question of "What would be your advice to children in the era of AI?" quite interesting and genuine. At the dawn of every transformative technology many people from all walks of life must have asked the same question and now even Elon Musk seems to be asking this same question to himself.
