I'm in the same boat, but I'd be thrilled if logseq introduced a "multiplayer" feature. Though a centralized (browser-based) version of logseq would need to be done first, and the project would need some changes. I tried to do this and didn't get far because the File API it uses relies on the server being on localhost.

> we have customers moving from Amazon Aurora where they’re experiencing a 1,000x speedup versus Aurora.

> So we’re a thousand times faster in query processing than Amazon’s version of MySQL

No, “some customers are experiencing 1,000 speedup”, even if true, does not imply that, in general, your db offering is 1,000 faster.
> Given the (unsupported) claim that a EV wears the road significantly more than a gasoline car

Wear on the road is a function of weight. It’s really simple and uncontroversial. An EV generally weighs more than an ICE of equivalent size.

Hopefully, the federal push to install tons of charging stations will usher in useful EVs with smaller batteries, lowering weight.

Its the same feeling working with old test equipment. They have these massive Centronics-style GPIB ports that you can either connect to a converter or an Ethernet adapter. The great part is that the commands from an old unit almost always work on a brand new unit with similar features. I had to use an old spectrum analyzer from the time before floppy diskette drives were common and moved up to a brand new one that ran Windows 10. I could directly connect to the Ethernet port and send the exact same commands to get my measurements.

Ellison wasn't confused about any of the technical topics around cloud computing. He was complaining about the marketing trend at the time of slapping the "cloud computing" buzzword on all kinds of things that already existed.

As I already said, "users can choose not to install software updates". So no, Apple can't "remotely" execute any code they want on your phone at any time, when you've made the simple, easy choice to change your Settings. This is not just "semantics".

I agree; base58 or base62 (which KSUIDs use) have a lot to recommend them. Crockford's base32 works, but I don't love it.

My first choice would be to just use type-prefixed KSUIDs, which gives you 160-bit K-sortable IDs with base62 encoding, which works great unless you need 128-bit IDs for compatability reasons.

It's literally my own experience, and most of my friends who live by themselves have said similar things.

Most people my age don't want a car, we want to live in the city center. People that live with their parents have a car usually, but that's it. It's not a big deal. I get that it can be hard to understand if you've lived in awful car dependent cities your whole life though.

Can you clarify this? Do you mean the version of a specific schema/query?

Replace "none of the solutions actually work" with "I don't know how to use them", and yes you're correct.

The main use case is that it's probably the only size consumers can run on their personal devices. If you don't want your data going into an external platform like OpenAI it's the only solution even if it's not very usuable.
I'm not a 1000+ tabbed, but I can relate to what you're describing. I'd add that it seems like it's getting harder all the time to find what you're looking for with the current state of web search, so when you come across a good page you don't want to "lose" it. Sure you could bookmark it, but you probably won't want it forever, just until you're done with whatever you were working on that prompted you to search for it in the first place. So bookmarking just moves the mess from the tab bar to the bookmark folder. Kind of like cleaning your room by stuffing all the mess in your closet.

You won't get much of an argument about that from me. Again, channeling Carl Sagan[0], "if there's no one else out there, that seems like a huge waste of space." That's a paraphrase but captures the essence of what he wrote. But that doesn't mean it's so.

We can be pretty confident that life as we know it has evolved elsewhere, given the chemistry involved, but intelligent, (and more importantly) life that develops technological civilizations is much less certain.

Detecting intelligent non-technological life is likely impossible unless we actually visit such a planet. Consider a world where creatures like dolphins or whales are the dominant species. No fire (okay, sodium reactions, but how do you create and store pure sodium ions?), so no metallurgy.

As I said, I'd need to see some pretty convincing evidence (even with the vast expanses of both space and time in the universe pushing in that direction) to claim that intelligent, technological life exists elsewhere. That doesn't mean such civilizations don't exist, but given we don't really understand how intelligence (as a prerequisite for a technologically advanced civilization) comes about, except in broad evolutionary terms, making such a claim is premature IMHO.

print journalism and what passes for articles on the internet are very different things. Our family had a subscription to the magazine for generations. Great stories by actual journalists and amazing photos from people who traveled the globe to catch them. I don't see a lot of archive.is links here leading to websites where globetrotting journalists are capturing the imagination of millions of people. I see a lot of badly edited articles about tweets though. Not that everything behind an archive.is link is trash, but it is very very different.

It seems like a lot of quality paper publications wanted to get into the whole online thing and the quality didn't survive the transition. Maybe because the medium doesn't allow for it. People don't interact with websites the same way. Maybe low effort content made enough ad money that companies just shifted their attention there instead.

Python vs C/C++/Rust/Zig has even more startling performance differences.

Being 1000x slower than shit needs to be is, very literally, the default state of the vast majority of software today. I don’t even blink at 1000x claims cause that’s just the standard gains you get over popular software.
> What use cases do people have for these smaller LLM's?

None. Training a functionally useless model and releasing it is a great way to demonstrate that your company is hip and current. That way when prospective clients ask about AI you can vaguely gesture at some model that you released and say you employ cutting edge AI experts.

Yes I’ve typically used Sequelize. There are tons of small differences between databases that add up to a big and annoying waste of time. Quick example: https://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_unique.asp

I agree ORMs are not a silver bullet and I’ve had my share of pain with Sequelize, most recent being broken migrations specifically with MSSQL when it involved dropping a column with a Unique constraint.

But all in all, it’s still been a big convenience. Part of my career has been in consulting and there, you notice lots of companies are trying to solve similar problems or automate similar business processes.

For example, contract approvals that integrate Dropbox, docusign, Salesforce, and Slack. Something like Zapier may not cut it so you develop a custom app, but it requires storing state and audit records in a database. The app has to work with different databases to cater to different client’s requirements and the application itself is relatively simple. ORMs are great to use in this case.

In the winter, spring and fall I use no air conditioning and basically my electric bill is my laptop, phone charging, lighting and a little $200 fridge from home depot. In the summer for the hottest 3 months of the year I will use air conditioning, not central but a small low space unit and that runs me about 40 bucks a month. In the winter I run a couple of little space heaters and that usually runs me about 20 bucks. If I use gas instead of those it runs me about 40 bucks a month average in gas.

I use no solar or anything like that, but I do intend to, if I want to continue living light like this I would be able to do it all on modest solar.

It doesn't hurt that I live near the ocean, and in a pretty small space (albeit not well insulated at all; I prefer to spend my time outdoors so the space is for sleeping and showering and cooking and what not) so summers are not as extreme and winters too, but it does get hot/cold enough that I need something for the extreme parts of the year.

They’re sails in this configuration—nothing more. They harness existing force of wind. They get spun up and if they spin the right way they produce a force perpendicular to the wind.

The magnus effect is a byproduct of laminar flow of fluid/air around a spinning object. Without laminar flow there is no force. So that is to say if you spin a sphere really fast and it’s hovering in air without gravity and without wind it will not move because there will be no laminar flow to produce the magnus effect. So in order for your spherical craft to actually harness the magnus effect you would need a separate means of propulsion to drive you in the primary direction and harness the magnus effect for thrust in a secondary direction, ie turn.

that is a big IF

Just an anecdote, but when I was at amazon I saw more undeserved pips than deserved ones. Often I was left wondering why that person was in pip but not me.

Imagine how far an EV with a similar amount of weight of batteries to vehicle weight could go. I'm not an EV hater, just pointing out here that even lithium-ion batteries are in the range of 100-265 Wh per kg while gasoline is around 12,200 Wh/kg (roughly 50x the energy density). This is a big part of why there are no commercially-viable EV aircraft, and probably won't be for some time -- namely until battery energy density improves by an order of magnitude or so.

As for this mini motorcycle, it's impressive that it still looks pretty decent and someone unfamiliar with this model might even mistake it for stock. I never quite understood why it's so hard to find even aftermarket tanks for bikes that get the range up to car range...I just want to go 500 miles on my bike without refueling. Put the gas in the frame AND into a 5+ gallon tank up top. Put gas into a portion of the seat. Put it up behind the headlight or in a big fender. Carrying jerry cans or even the bag style ones is just so bulky and inconvenient for overlanding on two wheels without a support vehicle carrying extra fuel.

Yes, we are behind schedule, and we can't get there just by replacing ICE cars one for one with electric cars, but there is plenty more we can do.

Living in walkable neighborhoods. Demanding better infrastructure for more than just cars. Working from home if you have a desk job.

And of course personal transport is only part of it. Electricity generation. Industrial precesses like steelmaking, and concrete will need to go carbon neutral as well.

Electric cars will be part of it, though. Those infrastructure changes won't happen overnight, we need all possible options at our disposal, it's not either/or, it's "yes, and."

But it can be done.

The problem with carbon fiber is that it's fiber. Think of a rope. It's very strong in tension; you can hang from it, climb it, hoist things with it, etc. Carbon fiber is useful in an aircraft fuselage because the inside pressure is a tension load on the fuselage.

Rope is useless under compression. You can't push a rope, or climb a rope that's only attached to the floor. So under compressive loads, you're relying on the glue mainly. The carbon fiber gives the glue something to stick to. A submarine is the opposite of an aircraft: the high pressure is on the outside, so the hull is under compression not tension.

It's a terrible choice for a submarine.
