> In dimensions 1, 2 and 3 these look like a fuzzy ball around the origin. But in high dimensions, it is more like a thin shell of radius sqrt(n).

But it’s also still like a ball. The “shell” thing is not something particular the Gaussian: the same happens for a hard ball. As the dimension increases the share of the mass of the ball close to its surface goes up.

Interestingly, Apache is roughly twice as old as SemVer (dating SemVer using the Wayback Machine looking at semver.org). I'd have guessed SemVer was younger than that, but time is weird.

Incidentally, that means that Apache is not, in fact, using SemVer. They're using the old-school even-odd system.

Yes, I've looked into running a small wind turbine but from what I can tell it's not worth the money or effort.

There is a reason why they build wind turbines so large and high. At small sizes, with our wind speeds, they barely produce any energy.

I can't also just put one on my balcony as I'm not allowed to (building regulations).

If I ever want to build my dream renewable energy build, I really have to relocate :)

The other approach I've seen is having some sort of weird key combination (like "hitting both shift keys at once") to switch back and forth between two layouts. I saw somebody using it for QWERTY vs. DVORAK but it seems like it'd be viable for two language layouts too.
Beyond conspiracy theories it's interesting to speculate why Google is not providing native search-in-subtitles and search-in-comments. The easiest explanation is that they don't trust the quality. They probably tried it and reached the conclusion that it doesn't improve search in any meaningful direction.

I know from experience that search in user reviews is very hard. Unless you really understand the review (which was tried via sentiment analysis) you cannot rank results well. But now with the new LLM models I think it would work better.

Is nginx still considerably more performant than Apache when both are configured well? (IE. Using mpm_event, not needlessly recycling processes, using mostly threads for concurrency, etc.?)

I'm one of those who always just stuck with Apache because 1) I'm used to it, and 2) it's never been close to a bottleneck in our stack. Especially now that the vast majority of static content requests don't even hit the servers at all. Buy I am curious! I haven't looked at comparisons in years, but last I did, everyone liked to compare nginx to prefork Apache, which is pointless.

> slow is smooth and smooth is fast

I've been in enjoying the converse of this i.e. "fast is smooth". It was provoked by using an ultra-fine fountain pen nib - too slow and it would be scratchy and dig into the paper with poor ink flow but using it very fast and lightly and it would be really smooth and delightful.

I am prone to perfectionism, overthinking, procrastination, majoring in the minors and getting derailed by little hiccups. I get motivation by seeing progress. If I pause I can struggle to get started again so momentum is really important or I fall into a negative spiral.

For my personal productivity, it helps to force a pace and do things faster than I naturally want. I need to keep up momentum and quickly do the known things and discover the problems early that need time to percolate in the back of my mind to reach a creative solution.

I guess we all need productivity epithets that counter our dysfunctional traits - too slow then speed up! too fast then slow down!

HAProxy is faster than both of them for load balancing. Apache is slightly faster for static content. Nginx has more responsiveness under high load than Apache for dynamic content (Hence Tomcat workers for example)
> What does volume mean in higher dimensions?

I think you need a scalar product to define volume. But fuzzy thinking an analogy: Think friendship, define three concepts related to friendship and that they are orthogonal, now establish some numeric scale to measure each concept, then you have just defined a volume to measure the degree of friendship. Unfortunately there is no canonical way to establish those orthogonal features, but they could be obtained applying a linear model to big data sets of measures of friendship.

> Do all dimensions have the same unit length?

The units of length are whichever you choose them.

You are free to choose different units of length for each of the dimensions of a multi-dimensional space, but that does not bring any benefit and it introduces many constant factors corresponding to the ratios between the different units of length in all mathematical formulae.

Therefore everybody chooses to have the same unit of length for all dimensions, in order to have the simplest formulae.

Of course, this is true for the multidimensional spaces in which a scalar product of the vectors is defined. When there is no scalar product, the units of length for the different dimensions are independent. There is no way to compare them and the question whether they are the same or different is meaningless. In such spaces, angles, areas and volumes are also undefined, only the affine geometry is applicable.
I don't know what they're really going to do about it, it's sometimes confusing enough as a human.

Like overhead gantry signs that don't "release" the limit and you have to guess that passing a blank one means you can go back to 70 and not get a fine in the post!

And another one near me where the sign has been rotated 180 degrees in the post so the limits are backwards.

Or the sign is painted on the road and then burned off, but you can still read it (one of these on the A1) and you're not immediately sure if it's just worn out like all the others.

I think for them to be reliable enough that I don't think they'll cause a crash on the A406, some signs need to be changed somehow to make them more unambiguous, or a better "digital twin" exists including live dynamic speed limits.

The tricky bit, in my experience, is that when you straight up ask the customer for requirements you get a list full of details around specific functionality -- basically all the stuff that's going to change in a month.

It takes skill and effort to abstract from these detailed wishlists into generalised primitives which remain somewhat constant. This work is similar to the fuzzy logic social scientists work with, and that's exactly the sort of thing most techies are not very good at.

Perhaps I misunderstood what the GP was asking. Nevertheless GLP-1 medications appear to be kidney protective from a long term standpoint with an increased short term risk of AKI likely primarily related to GI losses with additional risk conveyed by concomitant use of “depleting” (diuretics) and nephrotoxic meds. Once on a stable dose there’s no current recommendation to monitor kidney function beyond what would normally be indicated for diabetes (usually yearly).
The black on white labelling on the backplate looks quite ugly, unfortunately (see the unboxing video).
One of the primary use cases for LLMs I've seen touted is automating customer support, the irony is hard to miss.

Also from a technical standpoint OpenAI seems to be failing at solved problems, I can understand model scaling issues, but basic infra and UI for a chat app (one way chat no less), when you're claiming to produce 10x developer tools, seems particularly weak. Especially given they have open tab at Azure and talking billions in funding.

The gap between what current AI tech promises to deliver vs. what it actually delivers is a chasm.

> It's bad enough that a text editor that ignores the past few decades of UX research is still in widespread use,

Maybe that's because a lot of people using it decided that the "decades of UX research" produced precious little of worth. That's because alot of the "research" done in areas that are, by their nature, heavily opinionated, produces, what a surprise, mostly opinions.

And when we take a giant pile of opinions, and pile them all on top of one another, well...

...that's how we ended up in a world where, somehow, people now actually have to wait for an application to open, like they did in the early 90s, on machines that are orders of magnitude more powerful. Where webpages load 20MiB of giant hero images, useless framework code and spyware, to display 4 lines of text. Where applications get more "modern" and "streamlined" by somehow lowering information density, losing functionality and getting less self-explanatory.

Building batteries like these based on LiFePO4 is very easy to do, but you have to think about safety, especially if you put a battery in a moving vehicle.

If something goes wrong with these kind of batteries, it's never the batteries themselves (specifically LiFePO4) but it's always a bad connection or an undersized wire causing high resistance and thus heat --> fire.

In my case, my wires are quite oversized and I bought a proper lug nut crimping tool (and not use a vice or soldering (Don't do it)) to make the connections.
I've also really made all connections tight, double-checking them.
Having settings is nice, but I'm not gonna spend a lot of time configuring something that I'm not yet sure will even be useful to me. Power users of / users already invested in your product will use settings to great effect, sure. But defaults matter, if you target anyone else.

Actually, you probably understand that on a deeper level. Since we are not talking about a product where "you can configure vim bindings in the settings". Its just that you personally appear to like this default and seem offended by others preferring sth else.

You’re defending the claim that implementing qsort is too hard, definitely the people who wrote the standard library are smarter than the people putting in bubble sort because quicksort is too hard.

This is just a moronic defense of the venerated FreeBSD developers, it’s on a level equal to organized religion. The FreeBSD developers are fine developers and this was dumb, that’s why they replaced it.

And in this day and age there really is no argument for any user space c environment to exist where the qsort standard library function is not available. And even if there was, it would still be smarter to just copy and paste the battletested code from the c library than write another implementation. Because that’s how you end up with bubblesort because doing it right is too hard.

That’s actually my point. HN not getting anything that isn’t straightforward though is expected.
