Went through a very similar situation (kid with sensory issues as you describe), which was a very hard time for our family any myself. Also every doctor had a very different theory what was wrong.

What we did in the beginning is establish a plan for getting sleep in shifts. One parent is responsible for the first part of the night, the other for the second part. For a job that requires a lot of concentration, getting little sleep is really hard. Also buy noise canceling headphones / ear protection for yourself and your kid.

Regarding the sensory issues, this got better over time. Not in the way that the sensory issues itself disappeared, but everyone learned to deal with that better, most of all the kid. At some point we also became more accepting with the issues and didn't try to work against them. My kid would only eat 2%-5% of food offered. But she can have her pick and essentially always picks the same foods. Similar with clothes (same sensory issue, it seems. My take it is is actually mixed consistency of materials that is unacceptable). Working against the issues has not proven worth it - in the opposite, I think it's better to be accepting as the child cannot really help itself in this regard.

The sleep issues sorted itself out over time, but that took some years and took quite a heavy toll, unfortunately. Nothing we tried changed the situation, the kid just outgrew the problem at some point.
It's wild to me there's no clear answer for this; it seems like such an obvious product! Raspberry Pi is neat but not quite powerful enough, particularly when it comes to disk IO.
Then put the desired typeface at the beginning of the stack, and the generic (sans-serif) at the end.

I've never had a designer ask for 17 fallback options before selecting a generic (like this font stack).
With all these posts about fonts, I have to wonder, am I the weird one here for just using DejaVu Sans Mono for like past ten years and just, like, not caring that much? Does the font make that much of a difference?
I understand that paradox. The way I rationalize when it comes to food is that we wouldn't feel bad for a lion eating a gazelle... well we might but it would be required as lions eat that food. We're somewhere on that spectrum of omnivores who eat meat and that means eating animals.
They want to free up GPU's for other projects. And to do that, they need to make the model dumber.
Thanks. Frankly, the reason we have a separate fork is because some of our changes to rrweb in the early days were "hacky" to the say the least, and given that their team is part time on the project, there was occasionally a long cycle to get changes in.

We do have plans to consolidate one day, and I understand your sentiment about making diffs hard.

Fwiw, even beyond sponsoring the project, we even sponsored some folks on their team to work on particular features in the privacy and webgl space, so we have a really good relationship at this point.

I'll talk to the team regarding consolidating at this point. I appreciate the message.
100%. I'm very grateful for my family providing me with a foreign language education, particularly English. It's not obvious to me that Chinese is going to become the next global language, although if it were, I would provide my children with the means to learn it.

I must say though, that at least when it comes to medical journal articles, some native chinese sources I've found were better written. Less verbose, flowery, jargony. Much more concise. Curious to know if this applies to other fields too.
Something I hate in my own code is this pattern of instantiating an empty list and then iterating on it when reading files. Is there a better way than starting lst= [] and then later doing lst.append()

This is an example from the linked course https://github.com/dabeaz-course/python-mastery/blob/main/Ex...:

```
# readport.py

import csv

# A function that reads a file into a list of dicts

def read_portfolio(filename):

portfolio = []

with open(filename) as f:

rows = csv.reader(f)

headers = next(rows)

for row in rows:

record = {

'name' : row[0],

'shares' : int(row[1]),

'price' : float(row[2])

}

portfolio.append(record)

return portfolio

```
I blame Spez. Thank you.
I don't see a problem with this. The lingua franca is English. Prior to that it was Latin. In science you're held to a higher standard and this is a small issue.

> Compared to a fellow PhD student who happens to be a native English speaker, you’ll need 91% more time to read a paper in English. This equates to an additional three weeks per year for reading the same number of papers.

> The next big hurdle comes when trying to publish your own paper in English.

> First, you’ll need 51% more time to write the paper. Then you’ll likely need someone to proofread your text, such as a professional editor.

This is non-sense and is given without a single source other than a study likely tailor made for this result. I know plenty of ESL scientists and this is the least of their concern.
I know I should be a prime audience for Sci-Fi shows but I could not find a single one that I can bear, outside of Expanse. Everything is a soap opera, just in some sci-fi setting. Arguably, so is Expanse, but out of all shows it feels the most believable (I could totally see its events happening in few hundred years), I like the dark slant and the idea that if and when we meet non-human intelligence, it is going to be beyond our comprehension (and totally not like humans in some ridiculous makeup).

You shouldn't. Author seems pretty tongue-in-cheek about it:

> lambda has the benefit of making the code compact and foreboding. Plus, it prevents people from trying to add meaningful names, documentation or type-hints to the thing that is about to unfold.

Disclaimer, I did not read the entire post.

This take really does not take into account the huge value added of 1) not having to roll your own SPA code and 2) the availability of a large workforce that is all familiar with a common design paradigm.

"We should allow members of Congress to trade stocks using insider information so that poor people can afford to run for Congress" (which costs a million bucks, give or take) is certainly an interesting take.
> As it stands now the "fediverse" resembles a collection of islands with various shifting bonds between coalitions where those from coalition A shun those from coalitions B and C.

Hrm, what makes you believe that? There are a _few_ largely disconnected instances, but, in particular, the vast majority of instances in terms of usership (excepting intentional islands like Truth Social and Gab, and that one Japanese one) do federate with the giant instances like mastodon.social and similar, tying the whole thing together. In general, if you're using a "normal" instance (ie either one of the big ones or one moderated in a similar way) you can see most other users and most other users can see you. It's only if you're on either a service which everyone wants to block (rare, mostly small Nazi-oriented ones or ones which tolerate cryptospammers) or a service who blocks practically everyone (overly trigger-happy; these tend to rapidly wither and die) that you're isolated.

> it would be far less damaging to the structure of the "fediverse" if that blocking was user-based instead of site-based

Both are options. Defederation, for most instances, is the nuclear option, not the first tool in the box.

I do think at some point it's somewhat likely that there'll be a Muskian 'free speech' shadow fediverse (ie the sort of place Mr Cat Turd would be proud to call home), which will be largely detached from the main one but will federate amongst itself. There's some indication this is kind of developing already (many of the instances that nearly everyone blocks do federate with _each other_). Lots of viable islands seems less likely, though.
Thanks for pointing that quote up. Nonetheless I have the feeling it only respond to GP in a very short-sighted term. I do understand medical research should go on but don’t mismatch research process with industrial application, especially when they bring ethical concerns.

Agreed. I'm running a dual-boot Manjaro OS on the Serpent Canyon NUC (Intel 12th Gen CPU with their new A750 GPU). It was very finicky at first, but as soon as Linux 6.2 rolled around it worked almost flawlessly. For first gen hardware, that's some incredibly work by the kernel team.

That seems like a good argument for raising their salaries. Increasing the candidate pool beyond the independently wealthy is good, but letting them do a little crime is a bad way of increasing the candidate pool.
Gaelic and Aussie rules aren't so much dependent on codified association football as they were each somewhat independent codifications of existing games.

Association football has only existed as a codified game since 1863 - football before then was just a spectrum of local games played across Europe with little in common as areas got further away. Around the time of the codification of association football it was noted that different people in Ireland were playing association football, rugby football, and a third distinct game people referred to as "Irish football".

Modern Gaelic football was codified in 1884, and its rules were "dependent" on English football forms in the sense that it's codifiers explicitly rejected anything that was regarded as an English influence in writing the rules. It was a very nationalist time in Ireland and the GAA is an Irish nationalist organisation - they tried to keep out elements that were perceived as foreign, and integrated a lot of elements of hurling (a very distinct Irish game played with sticks that predates written history in Ireland).

The similarities between Gaelic football and Aussie rules is probably not a coincidence, but it's not because of soccer - the Irish diaspora played Irish football in Australia, and how the game was developed there had an influence in how the game was codified into Gaelic by the GAA. Irish football may have had an outsized influence in how football was played in Australia that it didn't have in Britain.

American football does more directly descend from codified English rules of football - Harvard were big proponents of rugby-style rules, which evolved into modern American football.
I'm still wondering, why should anyone rely on AI generated answers? They are logically no better than search engine results. By that I mean, you can't tell if it's returning absolute trash or spot on correct. Building trust into it all is going to be either a) expensive or b) driven by all the wrong incentives.

Great, though legacy admissions are only one aspect of the real problem.

Legacy admissions came up to point out the transparent hypocrisy of the recent Supreme Court decision. They claimed that they had to end "all" racism, but started by making things harder for a disadvantaged minority while putting forth zero effort into an incredibly obvious way in which they were disadvantaged. Nobody ever said it was the most important problem. It was just the simplest and easiest to explain.

Ending legacy admissions is the "plastic straw ban" of racism: solving a visible but relatively minor problem. Other problems are more diffuse: unequal funding, dysfunctional neighborhoods, poor policing practices, generational disadvantages left over from remarkably recent explicit racism, etc. You can't fix them with one change. And while they persist, some people are going to find it harder to get into college despite having as much potential as those who do.

An attitude of "We're going to fix the problems I can see in front of me and ignore the hard ones as long as they don't disadvantage me" underlies all of this. That's what made Roberts' opinion so galling.
No, Outlook isn't a webapp in a lot of entrenched corporate set ups. Many are relying on outlook plugins that only work on the executable, or don't have Azure AD and use their own local domain controllers, or local mail servers, etc...

As a database engineer, people ask me all the time, “What is the hottest area of database design” right now. It’s using SIMD which stands for Single instruction, multiple data, to process a lot of data very, very fast.
The advice is different than I would have given. Having the same idea as someone isn't copying them. If someone points out to you that they wrote something similar, you could reply "hey thanks I hadn't see that" and add a note mentioning it to your own thing if it seems relevant. Or, especially if you're being accused, you could just ignore them as an internet crank.

Trying to debate them, as the author suggests, seems like the worst possible idea to me. What is possibly going to come of that?
Software spending slips ahead of big tech earnings season
These models have been explicitly nerfed since their first release due to copyright considerations. I've mentioned in two previous cases both for [1] code generation and [2] book summarizing.

From my point of view, it is sad that these sort of socio-political constructs (copyright) are hindering innovation. The funny thing is that in say, 10 years, the "pirate" version of LLMs will be way more powerful and useful than the "corporate" versions. Once the RIAA/MPAA has sued all of them preventing them of using their audio/video; after the editorials have sued them to prevent them from using their books and articles, and after every internet site has sued them to prevent them from using their text. LLM models trained on SciHub, Library Genesis and Torrents will be amazing in comparison.

I sincerely wish that some country would apply to information copyright a similar approach to what India does for medicine patents.

China has not been terribly open about this thing throughout.

Once your vision starts to go a little bit, yea. The biggest thing that bugs me (assuming we're talking about a baseline more or less decent font) is the spacing. Like, "Sweden Sans" posted here yesterday is waaaaay too narrow to be comfrotable for me to read, much less write.

I've been using IntelOne Mono for about 6 months now, and I like it a lot. So legible I've actually been able to drop my main editor and terminal fonts sizes down a notch or two, while remaining readable.

This is so metal. But also, very "pirates of the Caribbean." For a member of a fishing community, I can see how this would be a lauded badge of pride. I do wonder how it would play out in the rest of the world, especially if fish skin is cheap and pig skin is not, it seems like this would be avoided like the plague by image-conscious patients.

> it's just that the magic has worn off as we've used this tech

I agree with this. The analogy I use on repeat is the dawn of moving picture making. The first movies were short larks, designed just to elicit a response. Just like when CGI was new- a bunch of over-the-top, sensationalist fluff got made. This tech needs to mature. And we need it to continue to be fed the work of real humans, not AI feeding on AI, a recent phenomenon that hopefully will not turn out to be the norm. If we water and feed it responsibly, it will only grow more capable and useful over time.

I think that depends on their circumstances. Slavery is already illegal, and there isn’t really a market for slaves to go around negotiating the terms under which they are being kept alive at the pleasure of someone else so they may not be able to physically execute a suicide even if they can mentally get past the fact that they don’t actually want to die.

Also being kept alive in bondage isn’t actually compensation. I mean there are many reasons slavery is an abominable practice, this is one of them, definitely one of the big ones.
Why shouldn't they use nbdev if it works for them? Plain Git obviously does not work and not only for data scientists. Git, with its inability to deal with non-textual artifacts, is completely unsuited to a modern software development workflow. Modern software development contains interactive graphs, audio and video assets, editable diagrams, vast amounts of binary data for reproduction of experiments, etc. etc. So much custom tooling has been built to somehow shoehorn this stuff into git and it never works well. I'm sick of diagramming software and IaC tools with horrible user experience just to keep a plaintext representation that no human dares to read anyway.
