You're confusing metabolism with hunger. While the two are largely correlated, there is not necessarily a strictly causal relationship. Hunger can occur in the absence of metabolic need due to hormonal signals, environmental cues (such as the smell of food) or psychological cues (social settings, habits). There can be both genetic and environmental factors at hand.

That seems like far too much, especially if you ever go outside. In the UK doctors recommend no more than 1,000 IU/day during the winter months. Any more than that is only if you are actually deficient. It seems really hard to get clear answers on it, though. People taking 10x the recommended dose of something seems strange. It makes me think it's being stored somewhere that isn't your blood. It's fat-soluble after all. Why on earth would you take so much anyway?

I assure you that there is literature on it. Here’s an almost random sample of papers.

I would like to point to this kind of statement that doctors often make, that there is “no literature” or that “nothing is known”. This is very often flat out wrong. Consider the size of the statement: Nothing is known and there exists no literature. The domain of knowledge required for the statement is omniscience. Having read all papers. It’s not an acceptable statement for anyone to make.

That article is signed by 'Admin', and has no references whatsoever. It doesn't even detail which were the alleged collaborations. It's difficult to take it seriously, the same article states that Ernesto Guevara made a concentration camp for homosexual, which is not far from reality, but an anachronism and also it just uses that to blame on Simone to say shi sat next to him once. (PS. Said concentration camp was the Cuban solution implemented by Castro, without forced labour iirc, and it was the best solution they came up during the raise of HIV, meanwhile the rest of the world didn't do much better. Heck even today we reject their blood donation, I mean from homosexuals which is plain wrong.. anyway.. just wanted to challenge the credibility of your link. But I don't mean to say that socialist don't commit crimes and mistakes.. I 'd be happy to see sources on the accusations of the article, just that. Ah. Did I open a parenthesis somewhere? Ok)
Unfortunately, at least in the US, desalination cost is dominated by the high cost of capital, not by the cost of the energy.

For example, the largest desal plant in the US is the Carlsbad plant in California [1]. For our purposes, it's a very nice plant, because the numbers are very round: it cost $1 BN to build. It has an output of 190k cubic meters per day, or 5.7 million m3 per month. The plant was funded with bonds. Let's say you want to build it today. A private person has access to 30y mortgage rates of about 7.7%. But this being a large corporation, and using municipal bonds that are tax exempt, let's say you can borrow at 5.5%. If you plug in a mortgage calculator, that comes to $5.7 MM per month, which is very fortunate, or a very round $1.00 per m3.

The energy use of desalination is in the range of 2.5 to 4.0 kWh per m3 ([2], page 91). Let's say it is 4.0 for the Carlsbad plant (to be conservative; most likely it is lower). The average cost of electricity for US industrial users is $0.0775 [4], so that's about 19 cents per m3.

Recap: $1.00 capex cost per m3, $0.19 electricity cost per m3. Increasing the efficiency of desalination by a factor of 2 would not make desalinated water twice as cheap, but only about 10% cheaper.

There is an asterisk here though: I don't know why, but the cost of electricity in California is much higher than the average cost in the US. It costs 18 cents vs 7.75 cents. So, for the particular case of California, the capex cost still dominates, but not by a factor of 5, only by a factor of 2.

It's not immediately obvious to me that the closed web will have anything good on it.

Optimistically, the web will break apart into some AOL Disneyland Cable shit experience and an actual good internet whose participants are not just pretending to have engaging content so they can get ad views. I know that sounds too optimistic, what's the flaw in it? Google will use it's monopoly on a few things to push it, I'm happy to move away from gmail and I don't use Google search anyway.

> In the normal world, you show up at the store with a five dollar bill, pick up a newspaper, and the store sells you the newspaper (and maybe some change) in exchange for the bill. In Google’s proposed world, five dollar bills aren’t fungible anymore: the store can ask you about the provenance of that bill, and if they don’t like the answer, they don’t sell you the newspaper. No, they’re not worried about the bill being fake or counterfeit or anything like that. It’s a real five dollar bill, they agree, but you can’t prove that you got it from the right bank. Please feel free to come back with the right sort of five dollar bill.

> no, that trashy CYA tone is not "precision", if anything, it's vagueness. It's weasel words

That is not what I said. /That/ «trashy CYA tone is not "precision"». But some use similar expressions to those you noted in order to be factual.

Some texts give a strong impression of fakery; some texts could give a wrong impression upon brutal use of raw Bayesian indicators. Signs orient, do not decide. Hints are not proof.

Some patterns in LLM output can be caricatures of proper efforts (factuality for precision, when relevant, is one of them).

So, people may write similarly to that. (Only, hopefully, well beyond veneer.)
Also, ask your doctor to get yours tested! A couple years ago, my D was on the low end (31.7ng/mL; 30-100 is normal). I've been taking 5000IU of D3 since then, and a lab last month had me at 59.1. That seems to be about the perfect dose for me, and it's dirt cheap.

I'm seriously thinking about this as well because I look at my future in America and see very few options but car-dependent atomized misery and I'm terrified of it. I just can't go back to the crushing boredom that characterized my childhood. But I'm afraid to make a move because everything I see says tech salaries are a joke in Europe unless you make it to, like, Google in Switzerland or something.

The improvement to my mood of being somewhere nice, safe, and walkable is truly ridiculous. It feels like someone slipped some drugs into my coffee. How sad it is that we in America starve like this for a human way of life. Living here feels like a misery for money tradeoff and I don't know what to do.
That's the thing though. Even though Google's search quality has diminished, and they attempt to enforce things like WEI or other abjectly terrible things, they remain the market leader in search, and this threat still holds a lot of weight. The amount of inertia to go against this change feels Herculean, and I'm honestly not sure how we would go about educating the vast majority of the Internet's user base to care about it.

Sure, as the technologists we are, we can see just how dangerous this can be, and why it's offensive to even consider. Without getting the masses on board though, we're pretty outmatched and outgunned.

In my town, most office rents are all time high and there are a lot of empty units, at the same itme. It's been like this for years, even before Covid.

However, in the few years before Covid there were more spaces advertised than there are now, and that number went up a little in 2020. But now, there's not much on the local the market, even tbough I can see plenty of empty buildings when I walk around.

We have a lot of landlords here who, I'm told, don't care that much about the rent, which is also why they don't try particularly hard to entice tenants. It can be remarkably hard to rent a space even when it's been empty for years and advertised as available, as the agents come up with all sorts of reasons and incompetencies. I am part of an organisation that tried to rent a business unit that was advertised and which we'd been enthusiastically shown around, and after a year of trying we gave up on it because we just couldn't get sane responses from the agent. The unit was still empty when we gave up on it.

There are quite a few that are not advertised but have been empty for years. Some of those are actually available, but you have to talk with property agents and ask for the lists of properties they have on file which are available if you really want to pursue them, but are not advertised. If you don't know, you don't know.

I currently rent a small office in a larger office building. The rent I'm paying is relatively low for the area, but it's inching up citing "market rates", i.e. high, even though most of the units in the building how now been empty for multiple years.

The property agent told me my particular landlord doesn't really care about the rent as they have other long-term plans for the building. So it's disappointing they still charge as much as they do for that rent they don't really care about. I'd love to take the empty unit next door to expand my office; it's likely to remain empty for another year anyway.

I was told a few years ago, before Covid, this dynamic is for two reasons. (1) The big landlords often prefer to hold out for a large, higher-paying tenant with a long lease, even if it means no rent for a year or two by turning down lower-paying tenants meanwhile. This makes little sense to me as they could presumably offer flexible terms where they can give notice at any time, but hey I'm not a landlord. And (2) some of them intend to wait for the building to be empty for long enough (20 years) that they eventually obtain automatic permission to demolish the building and replace it with a new build, either apartments or a new building with more floors and maximum footprint. I don't know if either of these reasons are true.
Never heard of either of these bands, but just checked em out. Definitely see the comparison. good stuff!

When you explore music in this genre, there are honestly just countless small acts that put out some really intense and well orchestrated music. Most people think of like, evanescence when they think of screamo, but its actually something entirely different that is closer to like 90s black metal.
> How does the public know that the enterprise (i.e. google) it's dealing with is healthy?

Because they will pinky promise.

I find it funny that for some reason companies get the benefit of the doubt when it comes to dealing with data in a responsible matter. Yes, it's possible that they do. But it is also possible that they don't and no matter what they say in public that's just words, it doesn't prove anything about what is really going on and that's before we get to honest mistakes.

There is simply no way to be sure, all you know is that once you transmit data to any other host on the internet that it is quite literally out of your hands whether or not that data will one day show up elsewhere.

Sure, things like video support can remain but all the crazy stuff for building web apps would go away. Let the current web rot away under its corporate overlords and then, maybe, we can have the fork go back into being a fun way of publishing and sharing information.

You probably wouldn't use a PUT for anything like this, true. But if you're going to mark a message as "seen" in a way that would impact a UI widget like an "unread notifications" red dot, then you almost certainly want to make sure that the state-changing request for that message is a POST, not a GET.

There are just so many ways for GET requests to be delivered to a server (or load balancer, or IP, or domain, or...) multiple times for a given client request. That capability is built in to HTTP and exploited in more places than you can ever hope to account for, or even detect.

Not when it's recommending something it _should_ already know I like (and probably why it added it to the list). Also, sometimes, I may like something, but not add it to my personal list. Since there's no way to rate a song, I use likes only for songs I really like.

I think the real point to be made here is that this is part of the inner workings of the system, that most users of the system are unaware of. Hell, this article and the ensuing discussions do not leave it completely clear how much of the system works. Like, I despise that when I create a new playlist with a name, it recommends a bunch of tracks based on the name of the playlist. Sometimes that'll be tracks with words in the name of the playlist in their name or some other odd metric, like it'll add songs from an artist that has a song that happens to be the name of the playlist. If you don't puzzle this out for yourself, you're possibly creating a very UN-optimized playlist for yourself.

I’m am bipolar and neurodivergent doesn’t even scratch the surface. Hypomanic episodes are expensive because I have barely any impulse control. No amount of defense in depth can stop me from getting access to money. I have to use a different strategy:

I prepare for these episodes months in advance.

I needed a new car, so I set myself up to be fixated on a new Prius when the episode got bad. Nothing less than new would do because I wouldn’t have the presence of mind to vet a used one.

This put a hard limit on the financial damage. The highest trim Prius with all of the options is cheaper that many other cars I could have bought.

The end result was a car $10,000 over my maximum budget. It has far too many buttons, but it didn’t ruin me and I love the car. All in all, a successfully managed episode.

This is one of hundreds of problems I deal with and plan for.

Doctors recommend supplementing vitamin D if you have a measured deficiency. Most people naturally settle to 20 ng/mL or higher, and just incidental exposure, or eating certain foods can help you either absorb or synthesize it.

There are also people, like me, who no matter what, we can't make as much vitamin D for whatever cluster of genetic factors causes that. Some of us are always tired unless we take 50,000 IU of D3 a week.
> Used by sqlite, babel, others (...)

I believe SQLite "uses" json5 in the sense that one of its important customers asked for json5 ingestion, and json5 was supported only for input in the spirit of the robustness principle.

From the horse's mouth.

"The important point to keep in mind is that SQLite will read JSON5, but it never writes it. The JSON that SQLite generates is canonical JSON that is fully compliant with the original JSON spec."

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35962213

If your definition of success is accepting an extension because an important customer asked for an extension, so be it.

In the meantime, are you sure you want to compare plain old JSON with the mess that's JSON5? Because projects such as SQLite explicitly refuse to support JSON5, and apparently their decisions pass off as the definition of success.

I was assuming that no-GIL will only be enabled if all imported libraries support it. That means that they are marked as no-GIL ready and otherwise the import would throw an exception. Not sure how it is implemented now but that sounded very reasonable to me. The no-GIL compatible code would start with the core libraries and then expand from that. Using legacy libraries just means that you have to revert back to GIL-mode. Any no-GIL enabled library should 100% still function in GIL-mode, so I don't expect the Python 2->3 transition situation to repeat.
No. My memory of the news stories were that some doctors preached it as a miracle preventative/cure, which let to patients neglecting other more effective preventatives because they thought they were safe from getting sick.

I think any doctor would tell you to take supplements if your lab tests showed that you're low. There's nothing controversial in that advice.
