I've worked within various flavors of virtual desktops and VMs for decades, on Macs but mostly on Linux. Have also had to split work across multiple machines, which is considerably less ergonomic. Would suggest looking into Spaces and Mission Control on the Mac.
I can assure you it’s a chemical dependency.

Also clothes made out of synthetic fiber shed household dust, microplastics, which we breathe in, and which could be responsible for all kinds of illness. I'm a lot more concerned of getting cotton clothes (carpets, blankets) in the future.

The US partisan divide, yes. Actual US political division between left and right wing politics is around and was not going to change for people on the left (not just socially on the left or in the US bubble of how many confuse liberalism and leftism).
I think it's closer to $40-$50/year. The way it works in CA is that every book costs around $4 and the cost is equally split by the state, local gov, and the Imagination Library

It's been a while since they removed it. It's probably because playing rarely-played videos costs more in bandwidth. You can still find them, of course, but it's more work.
The point is that the DA in that case was incredibly unprofessional across the board, and this was just one of many bad decisions he made.
It's what's left when you remove any sensory experience. Things happen, and when I wake I have the short term memory that they happened. You could describe it as narrative, but that would imply that there's language involved, and it's more abstract than that.
As someone from the midwest, I can confirm that midwesterners tend to be pretty smug about climate change. ("It'll make our winters milder!" is a common sentiment.).

Desktop Safari has extensions yet that plugin does not support it. At some point developing for anything but Chromium ceases to make sense since your potential users can just install Chrome, so who cares..
No, they removed it. While I believe they haven't shared the reason they do it, I think it's probably due to backend changes to reduce costs of hosting older less popular videos (maybe moving them to nearline storage?). Some previous discussion here:

This is literally in the second paragraph of the article.
You know that serverless is orthogonal to unikernels, right? Serverless just means dynamically provisioning an instance in response to the load balancer seeing a request. There are no serverless runtimes I know of that don't run as relatively regular processes on a host kernel.

Xen and KVM aren't equivalent here.

KVM is ultimately an interface involving file descriptors, mmap(2), read(2), write(2), etc. IMO while not being UNIX™ it still very much embodies the UNIX spirit.
I wish people didn’t have such a knee jerk reaction to my advice, but for many years I too believed a dev should at least try to wear many hats.

All it took was seeing how professionals always do the job far better to change my mind. It doesn’t matter if a dev picks up some skills, if you plan to be a dev then a dev is all you’ll ever be, focus on the development and let sales worry about sales.

I see a lot of founders struggle with delegation. It seems they would rather juggle things they don’t do well instead of learning to trust and onboard people who can do things they don’t specialize in.

Or, install some full-spectrum daylight-mimicing LED lights. These are not that easy to find, you want to use the CCT and CRI ratings to match sunlight as closely as possible.

https://www.uvm.edu/news/extension/tips-choosing-grow-lights

They're kind of hard to find, the optimal values are 6500K for CCT and as close to 100 as possible for CRI, which matches the peak value and the overall spectrum of natural sunlight. One option appears to be the NorthLux™ 95 CRI T8 LED Tube (kind of pricy though, and will need a specialized ballast fixture, also a bit pricy).
It's mainly going to inconvenience the poorest people who have the least amount of flexibility.

I have solar and a battery so it's really very little inconvenience for me, but those who can't afford that (and it's harder to afford now), will pay the worst costs.

By disincentivizing residential solar, the private utilities maximize their profits and decrease renewable energy installation.
Very smart and talented guy, but gets into fights too easily. I understand that getting swatted and harassed online is really bad, but the way he goes after people that call his behaviour out or use/support other projects is not good.

Stepping back for a while might do him good. Maybe he can come back later, with less stress, and focus on the code instead of dealing with the public relations (his weakness, I think).

For those harassing him, just stop. Honestly, it's not even fun. For those who defend and almost enable his out bursts, also stop because you're not helping him or the project.
To be fair, the person was talking about the US and more likely they were talking about the region they are from.

> Is that impossible with markdown?

No, that bit is the simple bit.

> you could probably design every control symbol in markdown as a switch

You need a layered mode though - you can have bold, italic, monospaced, header and link all active at the same time - which means you've got 32 states right there. But also! If you do something like `# Header _*bold-italic`, that italic and bold don't apply because the EOL stops the header state and retroactively cancels those bold-italic attributes. But on a non-header line, `_*bold-italic\nstill bold-italic*_` works fine because EOL doesn't cancel them. But also also! If you mismatch the order, it won't match both. Or, at least in Marked 2, if you mismatch the order on both sides of a non-attributed word, that word will get the wrong styling (`_*with mismatched_* middle *_attributes*_`).

In summary, Markdown parsing is a clusterfuck.
They were a lot longer outside than modern people though.

Oh, that looks like a fun read!

I enjoy the genre of 'marine biologist writes sci-fi about the nature of consciousness', but I can only take so much Peter Watts before I feel the need to read something with at least a dreg of hope, you know?
Yes and no. Suppose for example you give MNIST to a SVM and fit the model, then test it only on 0 and 1 digits, which are generally well discriminized, you'll get almost 100% accuracy in test, whereas 97% or less in training. (ye probably need some preprocessing, like using PacMAP or UMAP or whatever but the point is the same)

However, that's just because I decided the right data to test it onto. So, you can't really say much on a model using that definition.
Cancer is a bigger problem now because we have learned how to deal with other diseases.

And stocks don’t always “go back up”. I would have hated for my RSUs to be worthless as my stock dropped 40% from its highs before they vested. At least I was able to sell them and diversify.
Dunno. The real numbers, for example, are in the “most things are eldritch abominations” camp[1]: the reals are uncountable, the computable reals are a(n everywhere dense) countable set[2] (that is therefore[3]) of measure zero. Not that there’s a reason to expect these cases to be similar, just that weird things do happen.

[1] https://mathwithbaddrawings.com/2016/12/28/why-the-number-li...

[2] There’s a finite set of programs of a fixed length, thus (countable union of finite sets) a countable set of all programs, thus only at most a countable set of numbers they can compute.

[3] Every countable set has Lebesgue measure zero: cover point #n by a blot of measure ε / 2^n (that could even intersect other blots) to prove all of them have measure at most ε > 0, take ε as small as desired.
Was in agreement until I drilled down to the following statement on the Wing GitHub page and in the docs (https://docs.winglang.io/faq/why-a-language#very-cool-but-wh...):

“In existing languages, where there is no way to distinguish between multiple execution phases, it is impossible to naturally represent this idea that an object has methods that can only be executed from within a specific execution phase.”

This is not true. Several languages (Haskell, OCaml, F#, Scala, etc) allow you to define and use monads. Granted, monads are not something many developers know about … but it may make sense to learn about them before writing a new language.

Otherwise, this is a great read.
Right, but there’s a reason we call them ‘isotopes of Uranium’ rather than saying U-238, Np-238 and Pu-238 are isotopes in the ‘family of atoms with atomic mass 238’.

Things with 92 protons in them behave chemically in similar ways. They form the same crystals and molecules.

If you were building a table of isotopes you’d put a column for ‘proton count’, and you’d find lots of the properties of the isotopes depend on the proton count not the atomic mass. So you could normalize that table structure out and create another table with the atomic number as the key, and put all the properties that are common to all isotopes of a given element in that table.

You would have made a table of elements and it would have the same primary key as the periodic table.

That’s what a natural key is. One that emerges naturally when you normalize data you have collected.

I suppose similarly ‘electrons in outer shell’ might emerge as a natural key by that process.
We will never have good things. Just good enough. As it has enormous traction, and you can explain it to anybody in 5 minutes, it is good enough.
I feel like I’ve observed similar “childish” behavior from the Go community more so, and to some degree in even the C# community where people were upset at Microsoft’s probably-malicious decisions (like removing Blazor debugging from non-Windows environments). Some of their proposed and implemented C# changes in the last couple of years seem really asinine too, not just to me but hundreds+ who voice their disappointment on Github.

This is a very egotistical industry and this is one of many ways that manifests.

Being outdoors is almost always better than being indoors and people do need to get out more but that’s not the solution to a problem brought about by bodies being adapted to sub-Saharan latitudes but living north or south of the 37th parallel.

An hour a day buck-ass naked, isn’t enough if you don’t live along the equator.

For many northern and southern latitudes where many people live if you affixed yourself to a rotating pole and rotisserie’d yourself from sunrise to sunset while naked every day, then for 4-9 months out of the year you would be D deficient.

I’m outdoors more than most and if I don’t supplement my levels fall into the mid-20s ng/mL, below the standard range of 30-100.

I like an old camera I have around here with a 50mm lens because the photos I take with it resemble what I see better than when I use my old smartphone.

Eg, the size of a windmill behind somebody can vary dramatically in size depending on this

If I upgraded my phone, do the new smartphones enable you to take photos like my old 50mm camera, or will I still need my old camera to capture those shots?

I sincerely hope you meant that figuratively. If not, I'm sorry, and I hope you managed to stay relatively sane during those years.

It’s a guess. Maybe an educated guess, but it’s still a guess.
>Why does anyone actually care about this?

Because it sets the tone of discussion and contribution, the amount of respect contributors get, and the kind of behind the scene games played.

Licensed professionals are licensed (should be, there are notorious exceptions) because if those professions remain unlicensed, horrible things happen.

Lawyers and medical doctors are two of those. Yes, it would be wrong to prohibit the Starbucks barista from making coffees, no matter how many times such a person burned it.

Software engineering probably falls between licensed professional and burgerflipper on that scale... but let's not full ourselves. If you were working on firmware for medical equipment, then yes banning you from ever doing it again because you used ChatGPT when making a heart rate monitor is just and fair.

Not all of our software matters. But the people working on code for space vessels or aircraft or as in my example, medical equipment? I'm more than happy to see them banned from these things for life if they were to do that.

> You can assert your ideals all you want but the fact is that professions that govern themselves invariably end up with "what's fair to the bad lawyer".

This is irrelevant. We're all aware of how underperformant oversight tends to be. The point is to fix that, to rally against its eventual decline. Certainly I don't know why anyone would want to embrace your attitude of defeat/acceptance.

>Rust members were "uncomfortable" with this purely technical viewpoint - not their behavior, personal beliefs, or even their demographic?

>And then they pushed them out of the conference behind leadership's back?

>Did I miss something? This is indeed really childish behavior.

You're jumping to a lot of conclusions here. The article was written by someone who is clearly upset about the incident and doesn't go into a lot of detail about the motivation of the other party ("as best as I understand it, because of the content of JeanHeyd's blog post on reflection"). Would the "uncomfortable" team members agree that it was a matter of "comfort" that was caused primarily by the topic of a blog post? Are any relevant facts, by any chance, left out of the article? We don't know.

What we do know is that it didn't happen behind the leadership's back: "This discomfort was brought to the interim leadership group [...] A person in Rust leadership then [...] reached directly to RustConf leadership [...] RustConf leadership decided to wait a week [...] giving Rust leadership time to change its mind."
Just because someone doesn't deserve something based on merit, doesn't mean they won't be resentful and vindictive if they don't get it. You could even say the concept of merit and the reality of differentiation of competence and ability itself leads to drama and conflict.

How so? A sequence completion engine that is fine tuned to a specific task is still a sequence completion engine. Its "understanding" of the semantic meaning of the sequences is still limited to the probabillistic relations of sequences toward one another. It still has effectively no concept of truth. It still can only mimic reason. It can still hallucinate.

I ask anyone who disagrees with this view, to show me the fine tuning method that can prevent prompt injection attacks. If there is no such fine tuning technique, then we can effectively rule out fine tuning, and even increases in model size, as an "improvement" in the sense of an LLM making itself into a better AI closer to a "superintelligence".

Note that this doesn't mean the process cannot make them into more useful tools. It absolutely can. I am talking about whether or not it can improve them closer towards becoming a superintelligence.

If anyone disagrees with this testing method, I ask them to explain to me, how something that can be fooled through prompt injection is supposed to be, or closer to, a superintelligence.

A car that's painted red is still just a car. A big car is just a bigger car. A car that burns less fuel is just a more efficient car. All three can be desired changes to a car. But neither gets the car any closer to being a warp-capable spaceship.
Libuv – Linux: io_uring support
The effect of cooking on nutrients varies widely, depending on the specific cooking process and the nutrient in question.

"Nutrients" are typically defined as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids (fats), vitamins, and minerals.

Vitamin C is not very heat-stable, so you generally need to get that from raw fruits and vegetables (unless the food has been supplemented with it after cooking).

Vitamin D, by contrast, is pretty heat-stable.

Some proteins are rendered much more digestible by heat, so cooking actually improves the nutritional value of the food, in some cases by a great deal.

Lipids aren't generally affected much, though again some are more heat-stable than others. This is why some fats and oils are a better choice for deep-frying.

Carbohydrates are generally rendered more digestible by cooking, if anything (as long as they don't get so hot they start burning).

Minerals are mostly unaffected by heat. They can leach into the cooking water, so you'll lose some minerals if the cooking water is discarded. If it's something like soup, where the liquid is consumed, there's little or no impact.

There are even some commonly-consumed foods that are actually toxic unless they are cooked or otherwise processed. Cassava and some types of beans fall into this category.

I don't want to make a blanket statement, but I'd reckon that overall cooking helps more than it harms. Note that cooking is nearly universal across human cultures. Some cultures eat a lot more raw foods than others, true, but even the most raw-loving groups generally have some foods they cook (or otherwise process to break down, for instance, by fermentation).
