I fully agree. Any error should not return a 2xx code. All clients should be safe to assume that 2xx is cool and they can just move forward and use the output. If suddenly 2% of your 2xx responses are errors it becomes fun time to sort out where data got corrupted a few months after you started to use an API. Handling errors as a client also becomes nasty.
Yeah, this is a "very intelligent woman in a PhD program" who has a hobby that she shares with her friends, that's no reason to suspect she and her friends can't discuss "important things."

My understanding as an outsider is that astrology, tarot, etc function as a shared vocabulary and mythology to communicate about mental health and life's troubles. I think for most people the occult elements are largely aesthetic.

Throughout history people have used occult aesthetics to create a heightened experience. Sometimes that can help you commit to the process and get more out of it. (And other times con artists use it to get you to let your guard down, c'est la vie.)

Personally it's not for me, but when I got to know people who were into it, and did some readings to humor them, it made sense to me.

I assume that by "this organization", you are referring to the DEA.

The organization that's considering legislation is the U.S. Senate.

The DEA can lobby for funding and capabilities and whatever they want, and the HHS and FDA can lobby for funding and capabilities and whatever they want too.

Why would the DEA lobby for health care-based treatments? They're in law enforcement. Also... https://www.dea.gov/what-we-do/education-and-prevention

Speaking of health care, the DEA would not go away if illicit drug addiction were solved. They are the ones who license physicians to prescribe medication. So are y'all advocating for OTC-everything, and no controlled substances? Like, propofol for all? Chemotherapy at your corner drugstore? Complimentary COVID vaccine with your Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream?
That's an interesting math. I don't think they are using 4 bits, or even 8. My bet would be with 16 bits. (Bear in mind that's just speculation, for "math's sake").

So we are talking about 4x your numbers per specialist model:

180GB * 4 = 720GB. If you count the greater context, let's say 750GB.

Anyone remember how many specialists they are supposedly using for each request?

If it's 2, we are talking about 1.5TB of processed weights for each generated token. With 4, it's 3TB/token.

At 0.06 for 1k tokens we get

3TB*1k/0.06 = 50 petabytes of processed data per dollar.

Doesn't seems so expensive now.
I'm going to explain them perfectly well. We are going to make a comparison that each turn of the Rotor (applied in my case/Gearturbine) is a Step. It's fine. And So now when the rotor rotates with the power of the mechanical drive (Action). And furthermore, it has the internal flow contrary to its rotation (Reaction), but in favor of the individual blade attached to the gear with planetary rotation that activates the Rotor. In such a case they are two forces in a single system.

*

Maybe it doesn't have the best translation, but that's something else, that's not the point. But that would in no way be something that could belittle his qualities and technical virtues. And at the end of the day, all the explanations you can have are in the operation of the system. And this could not be easier to appreciate, Summed up in a simple sum. And in this case of 2Two Forces: 1Action + 2Reaction Applied in a single cycle, and thus also a single system.

·A) 1Action VS/+ 2Reaction = ?
·B) 1DestroGiro VS/+ 2Levogiro = ?
·C)1Rotary Move VS/+ 2InFlow Way = ?

Note: ·I use the "VS" Because the dynamic interaction is front to front, that's why.
·And is Added force one to the other, that's why I use the Sume/Plus mathematical symbol.
·A, B, and C are the same situation with a different word, from a different, technical view.

Other Note: If somebody doesn't understand Cut be because of some reason. Not because my responsibility.

*

I deal with the Requirements of a new mathematical symbol, in order to explain the Retrodynamic Phenomenon Effect, that occurs in an invention that I am developing. It is called the "Retrodynamic Effect" and it is created by having a situation of an axis turning in the opposite direction in a rotating system and in this way a great force is created. And there is currently no mathematical symbol that can explain it.

*

The Mathematical/Physical Symbol. What is required for the Explanation and Application in the Formula of the Retrodynamic Effect. Which has the quality of being applied in the Gear Turbine Project. What would it be to join the Symbols of ·1- (+) Addition and ·2- (X) Multiplication. It would be a Symbol with 8 Eight Points: 4 four of the symbol of + addition and four of the symbol of X multiplication. This is because it is a sum that continues to repeat the 2 Two forces the Action/RightRotation and the Reaction/Levorotation. The 2 Two Forces uniting, increasing each other into one. And is called “MULTIPLUS”. And in this way increasing its Power considerably. a sum that is multiplied and/or a multiplication that is added. When Active of the Rotor/action of the system and the internal flow/reaction that does it in the opposite way (in favor at the Blades circular move. Thats Why) applying in the individual vane connected next to its partner Gear internally fit in a planetary way internally in the casing, in this way. This is because that is how it works, they are the union and interaction of two forces face to face, front to front and therefore two symbols. DextroGiro and/or LevoGiro. Action And/or Reaction. + and/or X.

The problem with dating, is basically dating apps!
It is not a single Force/Action to consider. But rather there are 2 Forces/Action and Reaction. And the interaction of one with/against another. With Opposite Directions, face to face/front to front. One against the other. And this interaction continues to increase progressively. One to other/Action to Reaction.

*

More than the question is the answer. Being that traditionally in a conventional system a single total power is considered. In this particular case there are two; action and reaction. And their interaction continues and continues to increase with each other. In such a way it would be that turning the force increases from 1 to 2, from 2 to 4, from 4 to 8, from 8 to 16, from 16 to 32, etc...

Hi I'm the author of the blog post and the paper. In the paper I provide a reference to such a claim by proponents of dynamic typing. From my paper:
"Because some error detection can be done by both unit testing and static type
checking, some proponents of dynamic type checking claim that static type checking is not needed [3]."

and the reference:

[3] J. Spolsky and B. Eckel, “Strong Typing vs. Strong Testing,” in The Best Software Writing I. Apress, pp. 67–77, 2005.

I do agree that development time is an important factor and one that I didn't address simply because that would require a different type experiment. I hope that researchers look into that. I do also think that in addition to development time that overall maintenance time is considered. For example its plausible that dynamic languages are faster to develop, but take longer to make changes due to it being harder to understand, and changes aren't guided by the type system. It is also possible that dynamic languages are both faster and have lower TCO. To be clear I have no idea which is faster, and which has a lower TCO. I'd love to see some scientific evidence on development time and TCO.
Which is slightly strange because it contradicts the previous suggestion: don't be too liberal of what you accept.

One of my favorite philosophy books is A Secular Age by Charles Taylor. It has a lot of interesting ideas, but a key one is that the “subtraction thesis” of secularity is wrong. By this, he means the narrative that secular society today simply “subtracted” religious beliefs and behaviors of yesteryear. Instead, these things have just morphed into different forms, with astrology being a prime example. It can be understood as a reaction to the disenchantment brought on by the Enlightenment and scientific worldview.

Yet another not-Brian, but definitely my favourite one of these:

James Williamson got an electronics engineering degree in 1982. He immediately joined AMD where he worked for 15 years on tooling around chip design.

In 1997, Sony hired him as their Vice President of Technical Standards, where he did such good work that he later won ANSI’s Standards Leadership Award. He stayed in the role for twelve years before accepting an early retirement buyout.

But he was only sixty years old and didn’t feel like retiring. Instead, he went back to his pre-degree job: playing lead guitar for Iggy Pop and the Stooges.

I tried it last week, and it was a terrible experience. I used one of the official windows eval VMs, it was crashing all the time, and when it ran, it was laggy, with a lot of visual bugs.

My guest is a Fedora laptop with AMD CPU and GPU, and running the same VM with VMWare worked like a charm.
Do you think there’s a “shortcut” though? Sure most everyone (though not all) starts clueless at the start of grad school, but either you get the science or you don’t, my experience is that a good majority of scientists today never actually get science and just play the part (even to themselves) of someone who’s figured it out.
Also people can have interests that aren't that serious or have no impact on their lives. Sometimes I've met people that it seems as if some of their interests are basically long-trolls of their friends and family. So if the SO likes astrology, who cares?
That definitely happened. I remember that it was in the Ruby on Rails is the best / Ruby is the best / dynamic languages are the best time frame.

That's a shame, because basic Aristotelian philosophy used to be schoolboy stuff.

Interestingly, the only things we can actually know with certainty are purely abstract, like a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Is that within "the observable world?" Meanwhile it's entirely basic that our senses cannot be trusted. There's a fairly compelling argument to be made that sensory observation isn't a particularly good means of gaining knowledge. My own philosophical inclinations are pragmaticist though, so I believe abductive reasoning can, practically speaking, suffice for a useful if not entirely correct understanding of many phenomena.
Hi, I'm the author of the blog post and the paper. I certainly do not argue that static typing obviates unit testing. I agree that both are valuable together. I did however find examples where individual unit tests could be deleted because they didn't test anything that wasn't covered by the static type system. In other words static typing didn't eliminate the need for unit tests (for catching bugs), but it did reduce the number of needed tests (in real world code).

Consider an expensive computation that may have no answer, and so it returns (after some heavy processing) "int|None".

Also consider a cache lookup function that takes some key and returns a generic T|None for T the type of cache entries, with None signifying the key was not found.

Both are, on their own, pretty reasonable things to have.

If you are using union types and you put the results of your expensive computation into your cache, you will not be able to tell when you've done an expensive computation for some key and got a None result, or when you haven't got a result in the cache for that key.

Rather than just taking a statement from OP and stating the opposite, can you elaborate on why you disagree with them?

My personal experience has been very much in line with OP's: nonlocal type inference (in Rust specifically) frequently makes code hard to modify because a change can cause inference to fail in unexpected ways and places. Local inference doesn't have the same tendency.

Yes, however the discussion is more valuable than that. I once bought a framed poster at a garage sale and discovered when I got it home that it had a steel plate across the bottom of the frame. I thought it a bit of over engineering for adding frame support (it attached to the back of the frame with machine screws) but when you hung the poster it hung flat against the wall. I took me a couple of weeks to figure out the person do did that was moving the CG of the framed print closer to the wall which made hit hang nearly flat on the wall.

When reading the referenced article I realized it also allowed for an arbitrarily tightly stretched cross wire because the steel plate would bear all of the stress, not the art. That was something I had not thought of!

Concentrated solar stills is one way [1][2]

A great thing about desalination with stills is it uses the natural water cycle, the water that comes out is cleaner than any other as it uses that.

> A concentrated solar still is a system that uses the same quantity of solar heat input (same solar collection area) as a simple solar still but can produce a volume of freshwater that is many times greater. While a simple solar still is a way of distilling water by using the heat of the sun to drive evaporation from a water source and ambient air to cool a condenser film, a concentrated solar still uses a concentrated solar thermal collector to concentrate solar heat and deliver it to a multi-effect evaporation process for distillation, thus increasing the natural rate of evaporation. The concentrated solar still is capable of large-scale water production in areas with plentiful solar energy.
