Abolishing agriculture subsidies won't cause a reduction in meat consumption, as the demand for meat is huge, and can continue to grow without the subsidies.

As for convincing governments to protect more forests: that be will be vastly easier if abundant energy and a multitude of vertical farms makes horizontal farms less competitive in the market, and results in a situation where protecting forests won't come at the expense of the income/purchasing-power of citizens.

There's a bunch research indicating that shame is not really a useful tool. Correlation with depressive symptoms etc. Hopefully anyone with kids should have realised that making e.g. toilet training more stressful, surprise surprise, is completely counter-productive, but who knows.

If the kid knows that they're not supposed to do something, that's enough - they experience their own internal feeling of failure strongly. I've found that the opposite is usually true, that kids never understand that learning things always involves failing a bunch of times, which is the imore important meta-lesson

Flipside, if they don't care about doing something wrong and you shame them, in my experience they often simply don't give a fuck. Maybe that's my own genetics though. Admonishment and punishment is more useful.
I wrote:

> "Was the president strong at writing essays when JFK was a high school freshman? Read this essay to find out!"

You write:

> "when the president was a high school freshman"

These are very different circumstances, of course.

If the original sentence had "reigning" before the word "president", then I would absolutely agree with the given interpretation.

I've noticed that Americans call ex-presidents "president", and ex-governors "governor", so that merely adds to the confusion. English is not my native language, and I'm not American, so perhaps I fall into the "lack fluency" category. Conferring with other native speakers nearby, every American immediately reads it as intended, whereas Brits and Canadians do not.

I conclude that the original sentence is poorly written, and that I misread it.

About me: I am Asylbek and I am a Back-End Python Engineer with two years of commercial experience. I have experience in designing and creating products from scratch, and maintaining projects. I'm interested in database systems and functional programming. Also, I'm open to new programming languages.

I'm looking for full time job, but I'll be glad to consider part time or freelance jobs.
Because there's always a reason for different tools. I prefer nails over screws, but that doesn't mean you should only use nails for all your projects because some peeps on HN say they're superior.

Most people do prefer a Phillips screw over a slot screw, or PNG over BMP, but nobody has stated that here because the superiority is clear. If you like BMP over PNG, or MS Teams over anything, then you probably should explain.

There's culture too. I think Telegram, WhatsApp, and Viber, WeChat are all roughly equal. Similar goes for the browsers. Some countries are strongly Viber, while others are strongly WhatsApp, but this is more a product of marketing.
I disagree. Look at the history of the Mormons - they spent many years getting run out of town because they were a weird cult, culminating with a state sanctioned armed attack and destruction of the principle Mormon settlement (Navoo) and the lynching (to them, martyrdom) of their founder, who was also an elected official and a surprisingly serious presidental candidate. Follow their Exodus to Utah, they very nearly declared themselves to be their own nation and we're engaged in low level fighting with the western US Army until the admission of Utah into the union - which only happened after the Mormons, effectively at gunpoint, declared the more blatant polygamists schismatics and sent them packing to Canada and Mexico.

I'm not a huge fan of the Latter Day Saints, but for a large and important chunk of their religion's existence, they were not only called a cult, but persecuted as one.

Well, I don't mean it pejoratively. It harnesses the ideas of mutation + selection which has been proven to be successful for 5 billion years. "Everything should be as simple as it can be, but not simpler," describes the limits of practical reason. People have a great deal of latent evil within them, and society should be the least oppressive it can be, but not less oppressive.
This seems like a really unnecessary amount of overhead. With build times often taking multiple minutes, being able to multi-task is essential. I often work on two things at once. That seems difficult / impossible with this.
I think part of the problem is that in many of these countries you basically have to be “rich” to get by, and you need a lot of money to raise kids according to the standards in these countries.

The reason it used to be easier to have kids is that the whole society was based around having/raising kids being the mothers full time job. The living expenses in richer countries are generally so high that this is no longer viable. Even in Norway, which is very rich and where there’s a ridiculous amount of financial support for having children, if a woman decides to make it her life’s job to just have lots of kids, and the father just has a normal job, you’re going to have a pretty hard time and a terrible pension.

In a poorer time, or a poorer country, you didn’t need to own expensive stuff to have kids. In many rich countries it’s basically impossible to have a family without a car, and since laws in some of them require huge booster seats for kids, you need a huge car. When my mom was a kid you could just throw the kids in the backseat without even a seatbelt.

To be clear, I think we’re moving in the right direction in most ways. Requiring booster seats is good. Most women having a career outside of having kids is very good. It’s just that we don’t have all the pieces in place. Even Northern European countries have maybe 50% of the financial and practical support needed to motivate people to having more kids in a modern rich society.

My benchmark is that if a woman wants to have like 10 kids, she should end up with a decent salary and decent pension in the end. Doing that is almost a full life’s work, and it should pay fairly to choose to do it (it is a job that needs to be done for society to survive after all, especially if most women only have time/resources for 1-2 kids, if any, if the want a decent career)

Dualism, or at any rate the version of it that can be described as operating on the (possibly unconscious) assumption that a world "outside" of this world exists, is the secret ingredient at work here, smuggled in along with the kinds of notions expressed by the person you're replying to. We just can't seem to fully disentangle very old deep-seated animist instincts, even sophisticated formulations of them, like the soul or consciousness, from our reasoning and descriptions of dynamic systems. I'm not sure this is a bad thing even though I recognize that it is a crutch. completely materialist interpretation of phenomena would probably lead us to the realization that we are not alive at all, and that what I call "my life" is just a kind of curling strand of causality frozen in the Parmenides block universe.

I've come to suspect that a habit of using the passive voice when discussing these phenomna contributes immensely to their ongoing currency. Steering away from this by asking questions like, "_who_ or _what_ is attending to/experiencing the stream?" may be a useful way to ground these statements in material terms.

But apparently their surface resistance scales with the square of frequency, unlike the square root in normal copper.

So maybe just just t normal conductors like copper, silver, graphene (assuming the latter can be commercially made to surpass silver in RF surface resistance).

You are conflating a flawed justice system (prison) with teaching morality. They are not the same.
Precisely. Congress is simultaneously demanding that the executive branch collect X taxes, and spend Y on programs, while also demanding the executive branch do it while somehow putting a total halt on paying outstanding debts it made because since X<<Y.

They collectively want to save their cake for later and eat it now, and somehow it's always someone else's fault that there's just one cake.

Anyway, this leaves the executive branch with nothing by bad options. Here are the ones I can think of, from least-bad to worst:

1. Ignore the debt-ceiling because it is weird self-contradictory nonsense compared to business as usual, fight it in federal court system as Congress Being Impossibly Stupid. (I prefer this one.)

2. Proactively ignore some spending laws while enforcing others of the President's choice. (Unconstitutional, President can't line-item-veto.)

3. Specifically ignore laws around Federal Reserve and its nominal independence, so that the President can arbitrarily print more money for everything. (Similarly unconstitutional as #2, will severely spook markets and leads to a slippery-slope of inflation since it's no permanent fix.)

4. Raise new taxes of its own choosing. (Explicitly unconstitutional, only Congress can do that.)

5. Cease to honor its debts. (Explicitly unconstitutional, also major financial/economic/diplomatic crisis.)
Working on large complex projects the main branch will have dozens or hundreds of commits per day pushed continuously. The value is a consistent and linear commit history moving from known-state to known state.

Facebook version control system built on mercurial is the best I've used. One of the huge benefits of the rebase based workflow is commits can be reordered and land as they pass tests rather than a single linear commit history.

The point is to have an easy way to distribute code as data. This is important for many areas, such as training neural networks (code with proper seeds can ensure the weights output by training), various applications in basic physics, database creation via ETL, etc.

If the choice is "run this code in the repo, wait 10 weeks while it's running, and retrieve the 50GB file", vs "download this file", of course, the latter is better. But many of these processes exist in academia, wherein you are essentially guaranteed to lose access to the server and maintenance of that file for download, it can get pretty annoying. Additionally, there's no seamless way of distributing it (it's in the docs, point somewhere else that may or may not exist, etc).

Since essentially all big data is really just code, it would make much more sense to tie these directly at the hip. So, a git/repo commit hash that is a key directly to the IPFS data hash would fix this problem directly.

So it's not "wanting big files in a git repo" (an obvious no-no, since central servers shouldn't be used for storing large data, and github centralized repos only should store single digit MB or so), it's wanting to relieve the cost of running processes that may require supercomputers weeks of processing for QM calculations, etc by providing a guaranteed hash pairing of the output of the code.

If DFT agrees with reality, it's fine

If it produces unphysical nonsense, you can always say "You should have considered xyz!"

Computational chemistry inherently cannot consider everything we understand about chemistry or physics or consider beyond certain scales, so its accuracy and precision are limited. You have to constrain the space properly, which makes people a little dismissive.

1.6 should have a few years of support. Though 2.0 is largely compatible with older Nim code.
No it pretty much is true, well it's the power draw from switching transistors and from leakage losses.

Resistance in the metal wires is not so much a problem for power as it is for signal propagation delay. That is the biggest problem with R skyrocketing in M0/1.

And backside power delivery is to relieve congestion in the interconnects. That's typically one of the limiting factors in complex logic designs now, transistor densities of under 70% aren't uncommon.

That's what "Removing the power signal and signal line to just a signal line would free up space for more transistors." line is about in the link. Power delivery losses aren't nothing, but they aren't a big fraction of energy in today's CPUs.

Eliminating most wire delay would be a huge benefit though, and could be a pretty big revolution. Not just within the core or on the die. You're still going to have to switch those transistors and burn current on leakage though, so no cold CPUs just yet.
You can use std::once_flag and std::call_once from <mutex> instead of rolling your own atomic solution.

i wonder about the boundary lines. is believing that moses got ten commandments on a mountain like a cult?
I completely agree with you. I failed to articulate it well.

Like the current top HN post suggests (https://eugeneyan.com/writing/llm-patterns/), we’re still discovering patterns that work well with LLMs.

That said, anecdotally - they already excel at being logic engines. Capable of filling in the gaps between instructions. Using their worldly knowledge or “common sense” to do so.

But ever so often, they’ll miss an important bit. And I have to be quite involved to catch that. Kinda defeats the purpose. Here, I think we can benefit from supervisor LLMs. A second layer, whose sole job is to ensure the output quality. A QA bot - essentially.
