I build tolerance to caffeine very quickly for some reason. One night I drank two redbulls so I could finish a project (I had been drinking a lot of coffee and energy drinks during that period) and decided to take a quick nap before going into crunch mode and ended up sleeping the entire night.

I had a redbull yesterday at 17:30 and fell asleep with no problem at 22:30.

If I want the true effects of the energy drinks I have to use them sparingly or else my tolerance ramps up and it doesn’t give me the energy buzz but kinda makes me sleepy...
I didn't talk about democratization (why the scare quotes?). I called it elitist because it's elitist. Harder entry exams are a way to only allow higher education for a much smaller percentage of the population, i.e., to an elite. You're obviously not one of them but there are people who think that the largest percentage possible should benefit from higher education. This also requires it to be affordable economically, of course.

I understand that this idea is not necessarily appealing to elitists and to people who only consider education in terms of the economic benefits it might provide.
Kinda unrelated but youtube comments still give me the old internet vibe I associate with forums, usenet, etc. I think its the lower quality / lower barrier to participate, to be honest.
One analysis I’ve heard of that is that Japanese is naturally a more dense language than English or other European languages, so the style seems more natural to native readers of Japanese.
Most of school sports is pretty horrible and they barely teach you anything useful (in germany). But rather way too many dangerous exercises, like rolling over the head or standing on the head with little guidance, etc.

nVidia has a 20 GB GPU with the same chip as 4070Ti, the model is RTX 4000 SFF.

One issue is price, it costs almost twice as much. Another one is memory bandwidth, RTX 4000 SFF only delivers 320 GB/second. That is much slower than 4070Ti (504 GB/second) and slightly faster than 4060Ti (288 GB/second). Also the clock frequencies are half of 4070Ti, so the compute performance is worse.
Smokers have shorter caffeine half-life (wish I knew that when I was quitting smoking) while birth control drugs or liver problems can extend it.
These machines were beautiful. In my first company, a small CGI/video production firm, we had an SGI Indigo High Impact and two DEC Alphas, the rest was PCs.

The Alphas ran Windows NT.

They were about twice as fast as the fastest PCs at the time when we rendered with PhotoRealistic RenderMan for Windows and Real3D on them.

Beer being a way of drinking uncontaminated water is a myth that somehow sticks around, similar to the belief that people in the middle ages thought the world is flat.

This isn't inflation adjusted as far as I can see. Even if it were, the revenue now should be much higher than in 1999, given that the world economy grew a lot since then. Here is an actual inflation adjusted chart, which looks pretty damning:

One of ui methods that web completely abandoned is master-detail (or is it main-detail now).

A popup still requires interaction and hides content. If you want really zero friction, then show the main content on one side (left, right or just center) and show details on hover (or click) on the side of it without reflow. On modern sites and displays there’s plenty of room for that at both sides.

I wish it was a standard element for all ui jobs, or one of available modes. Explorer - contents aside. Text - search/details. IDE - help and examples. SERP - site preview.

Sugar is the worst substance for public health ever. It's literally poison.

Its hyperbole meant to convey a sense of how bad sugar (particularly added sugars) is to the health of the population. Sugar is in everything (more hyperbole!) in the U.S. America by and large is addicted to sugar and it’s very bad for us. Everything is over sweetened. Can’t even buy bacon without sugar added in some form or other.

I actually agree. It wasn't smooth for me to ship my first CL app. It's all better now (more tools, more documentation, more blog posts from several people, more SO questions and answers!).

> performant

SBCL is in the same ballpack of C, Rust or Java in many benchmarks.

In this article series, the author writes the same program in CL, Rust and Java. In fact, he copy-pastes a PG snippet from 30 years ago. This snippet beats Rust and Java in LOC and speed. But, yeah, he wasn't writing super efficient Rust code, so after many discussions, pull requests and sweating, the Rust code became the most performant. https://renato.athaydes.com/posts/revisiting-prechelt-paper-... It didn't take work to make the CL code performant, more so for the Rust one ;)

I know one person who did something like this, and I don't think they ever actually followed through on doing the reading part. I don't think encyclopedias are even supposed to be read that way - so based on the sample size of 1, then I would say don't do it.

Simple Lazy Loading in Rails with Hotwire and Turbo Frames (12 Lines of Code)
There is one more thing: a culture of sitting for white-collar jobs. This is changing, but very slowly. When you are not WFH and say you are on a meeting, everybody is expected to be sitting. Even if it takes hours. If you start to move everybody is giving you looks and finally someone in a senior position will tell you, "Sit down, you are distracting others".

And of course offices when you can move while working are still a minority. It looks like we brought this upon ourselves.

You are reading a quote from Wikipedia, a tertiary source.

Wikipedia's source for "intentionally starved" is https://archive.org/details/biographyofsign03sand/page/102/m... :

> He was not only deprived of the comforts, but the necessaries, of life, having been left more than twenty-four hours without food, and afterward afforded a very coarse and limited supply. The inhuman treatment which he received, so repugnant to the principles of civilized warfare, and so intolerable to an individual who had been accustomed to all the comforts and delicacies of life, depressed his spirits and seriously affected his health.

Can you tell me if that was "intentionally starved" or "intentionally forced to eat the same rations as commoners"? Was it really a starvation diet, or was it food that a rich man wasn't used to eating and found unpalatable?

You may well be right. By all accounts the Provost Prison was a horrible place, cruelly run by Provost Marshal Cunningham. At https://www.gutenberg.org/files/7829/7829-h/7829-h.htm#link2... we can read how a pamphleteer describe him as a torturer:

“His hatred of the Americans found vent in torture by searing irons and secret scourges to those who fell under the ban of his displeasure. The prisoners were crowded together so closely that many fell ill from partial asphyxiation, and starved to death for want of the food which he sold to enrich himself.”

But even if you are right, at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36875273 I point out the other four imprisoned signatories to the Declaration of Independence were not treated like this.

They certainly were not tortured.

I have 50+ public projects on Github.

Some of them are live, have screenshots, proper documentation and such.

Some of them gets stars or people reach out for support on these projects.

Some of them I've advertised on Reddit etc and reached 100K+ views and a lot of upvotes in their respective Communities.

I also have a substack which has reached top of HackerNews once.

All this has netted me exactly ZERO opportunities till now.

Thankfully, I'm doing Github and Substack as a hobby/learning so no expectations = no disappointment.

But the author is deluded to think these things help. You might win the lottery and the right person might see your content at the right time. But it's better to just use this time to cram Leetcode and get a job.

I see the problem as although you can create lots of examples that are correct/follow real world opinions, you can never prove that a particular question is correct/follows real world opinion. I'm not sure who would trust the output enough to rely on it for decision making.

No, I think the extraction of resources from the colonies created a lot of wealth in Europe. In fact, a very strong argument could be made that that's where our (euro-centric) belief in abundance comes from.

Why the colonies were so adversely affected is a bit more complicated, and I think is more related to destruction of existing societal institutions and the installation of deliberately extractive institutions.

There's no technical impairment for doing this with current tech, and it's not clear the new tech is cheaper.

I've been assuming for several years now that they will never end up killing either Android or ChromeOS in favor of Fuchsia. The reasons aren't technical but business related.

The business reason for this is that this would alienate the OEM ecosystem. The likes of Samsung want less Google influence, not more and they're really invested in Android. Without Samsung on board, Google's choice is letting them take over Android or keep control on their side. It's that simple. There are also various Chinese manufacturers that already cut loose from Google for legal reasons that are running Android forks. Amazon has its own fork. So, Google has their work cut out forcing that ecosystem in the direction of Fuchsia.

With ChromeOS, they have a similar issue. Lots of OEMs and it's actually a relatively successful platform. IMHO they should push to merge the ChromeOS and Android ecosystems more. Fuchsia does not solve a problem any OEM has.

It's Google's big not invented here syndrome. They started doing an OS because they had some technical concerns with Linux. Instead of working with the Linux community to address those concerns, they've been building their own OS for years now. They'll ultimately probably do the easy and obvious thing which is to write off the whole effort. At best a lot of the components (minus the kernel) might find their way into Android/ChromeOS and their UI frameworks (jetpack compose and flutter).
History disagrees:

- 1706: Slaves entering England are freed

- 1772: no slaves can be removed from England,remaining slaves emanzipated

- 1779: all slaves fleeing from tha US are freed, regardless of their willingness to fight for the crown

So, yes, the crown had legal precendent and plans to abolish slavery as far back as the early 18th century.

The benefits are primarily price - 96GB of VRAM would be 4x3090/4090 (~$6K) or 2xA6000 (~$8-14K) cards (also, looks like you can buy an 80GB A100 PCIe for about $15K atm). While Apple is using LPDDR5, it is also running a lot more channels than comparable PC hardware. The M2 has 100GB/s, M2 Pro 200GB/s, M2 Max 400GB/s, and M2 Ultra is 800GB/s (8 channel) of memory bandwidth. The Nvidia cards are about 900GB/s-1TB/s (A100 PCIe gets up to 1.5TB/s).

In practice, on quantizes of the larger open LLMs, an M2 Ultra can currently inference about 2-4X faster than the best PC CPUs I've seen (mega Epyc systems), but also about 2-4X slower than 2x4090s.

I drew a different conclusion from similar experience. I avoid navigation properties and other advanced mapping features, so an entity maps flatly to one table.

The LINQ queries will be more verbose as you'll need to write the join and group clauses explicitly, but I find it much easier to predict the performance of queries since the generated SQL will look almost exactly the same as the LINQ syntax. It's also less likely to accidentally pull in half the database with `.Include()` this way.

That’s the one thing that I feel is a bit misleading in the article (to be fair, it was initially written years ago, and got rewritten a bit recently). FLOPS comparisons given in the wild are not always apple-to-apple (eg. not including Tensor cores for NVIDIA, but including V_DUAL_DOT2ACC_F32_F16 for AMD), while on the flip side, AMD’s WMMA should address the same goals as Tensor cores.
