It's an historically important idea, which Lisp originated. Lisp in Lisp is not just an implementation - it can be the language definition - that was the big innovation. McCarthy's original Lisp was defined in Lisp, in academic papers and its manual. And, it didn't take a lot of code -- maybe a page. This shows that the language is very expressive and also compact.

The near-contemporary languages FORTRAN and Algol were not defined in themselves. Exhibiting (for example) an implementation of FORTRAN in FORTRAN would not be enlightening - it would be this big complicated thing that would be much harder to understand than Lisp in Lisp.
Trucks are a poor fit for pure EV’s due to weight limitations and their usage patterns. Regenerative breaking really doesn’t hemp them much which is why gas electric hybrids never caught on.

We’re much better off transferring large trucks to either in road charging or trains.

This study does not (by what I read) directly address your question, since it doesn't say anything about whether the participants in this study had cataract surgery, LASIK, or anything else, or whether they even factored that in. But, evidently some other studies have been done on this.
Plus, if you are cost cutting: buy a teensy and use your Korg NanoKontrol and open the Arduino IDE and go to “VA synth demo” under teensyduino presets and boom, at least it’s not making Uli Behringer any money at the expense of some other companies R&D and the reputation of some components inappropriately used.

I think part of it is that many companies were not remote before the pandemic, and most of the companies issuing RTO mandates did not promote (or in many cases even allow) RTO pre-pandemic. Because the pandemic forced an abrupt shift to remote work, these companies had to adapt to remove work in order to keep working under pandemic conditions, but now that the pandemic is over, these companies want to return to the status quo ante. The pandemic environment was quite stressful for many people, and this could have impacted productivity. However, the companies issuing RTO mandates might not be interested in doing a more fine-grained analysis identifying what exactly caused those productivity losses.

In addition, while I enjoy being able to work from my apartment (though my company now mandates being in the office once per week, though pre-pandemic I worked in the office 3 days per week), I recognize that not everybody thrives under remote work. I live in a one-bedroom apartment by myself, and my apartment neighbors are not disruptive (at least during work hours). Working remotely would be more challenging if I had roommates, or if my neighbors were loud during the day; under those circumstances I'd have to look for alternative work locations such as libraries, coffee shops, or even rented private offices. Not all remote workers are highly paid, and not all remote workers are in situations where they can move to 2,000+ sq. ft. homes in the countryside. There's also something to be said about camaraderie, which is important for some companies and for some people and is harder to build virtually than in person.

I just wish the housing situation wasn't so messed up in much of the world's tech hubs....today's housing prices near offices, whether renting or purchasing, are brutal, forcing many people to make choices that have a degraded quality of life, such as long commutes, living in cramped conditions, and/or living in high-crime areas.
great idea to mandate back to office when a new COVID mutation is surging around the world, including rise in hospitalizations... /s
For code I’ve found LLM mostly useless, since if I don’t understand something I need to read the docs anyway, and the generated code tends to be buggy even in react.

Where I have found LLM useful is in generating text. Where I used to use a thesaurus I now use LLM to find words to name things in themed UX. But it’s not great at function or variable names, it tends to pick names that look good but don’t precisely describe what something is. LLM is also great at generating text for role play.

Yea--I've found it surprisingly difficult to get plain vanilla medium-sized companies to adopt obvious, time-tested best practices. I'm not talking about "Google engineering practices" but basic table stakes practices like using source control and a bug tracker. So-called "Joel Test"[1] items. The most common excuses are: "We don't have time/money to do infrastructure/process, we need to write shipping code!" and the usual "We've always done it this way".

The SPD leads the ruling coalition of parties. The Germans elected a variety of parties and SPD leads the ruling coalition of parties.

By comparison the Nazis did not form such a ruling coalition, and seized power by force later - not democratically. My whole point, from beginning of this comment chain, is that the Nazis did not achieve rule democratically. They won parliamentary seats, but failed for form a coalition (at least not until they took power by force and effectively rigged elections).

Exactly my concern. If the model isn't sure-footed about the path forward, it seems prudent to take that fact as information and adjust the initial conditions, rather than forcing the model into a potentially hallucinatory idea-space.

So you're saying, in lack of any other evidence, that a librarian would want the money donated to the library?

I'm an engineer, I went to a school, I also played football and was in a fraternity. I think my school knows what they're doing. If I was to give them money in bequest, I'd either let them deal with it or I'd actually point it at the athletic department.

Actually now that I think of it I'd just put a $1M donation on game socks. All student athletes get great new socks once a week.

That and maybe something that encourages the good TAs to all be at the athletic complex.

My point is, based on a photo of me when I'm 80 and my career choice, you'd have no idea what I'd want to do with my money.

There's a very old phrase to describe what you're espousing: penny-wise pound-foolish.
It’s a 13F filing [1], so the article’s phrasing is a little sensationalist. The big number is the value of the underlying stocks, not the premium paid on the options, which is what they’d be risking. The information is 45 days old and they could’ve exited this position the next trading day, 42 days ago (July 3rd).

The $1.6b number comes from listings of:

$738,840,000 for QQQ Puts.

$886,560,000 for SPY Puts

Which is calculated based on the closing value of the underlying stocks on June 30th. Option contracts are for 100 of the underlying security, so 2M reported shares is 20k options.

$886.56M = $443.56 * 20k * 100

If the value of the options contract is $1, the positions for both securities could be replicated for $40,000 total risk.

It doesn’t tell the reader anything about the expiry date or the value of the premium paid, which would be actually useful information.

If someone wanted to, they could guess the size of the risk based on the immediately previous 13F filing and comparing what was sold off, but that would be based on too many assumptions to be super useful either.

> The way this particular segment of Russian society reacted to the crash and the murder was an ugly reflection of a national tendency to blame whoever happens to be present at the moment of a tragedy, while those responsible for creating the unsafe condition go unnamed and unpunished.

Severe Tangent:

It's difficult to change the way you perceive the world, but I invite you to try.

Lately I've been thinking about how we understand and talk about tragedies and atrocities in history. Atrocities are traced back to who is most to blame, but not the conditions that led to the situation, not the political techniques that were used to gain the power, and certainly not how it might apply to ourselves.

When we find someone to blame for evil acts, we can close that mental box. That was the person who did it; I would never do something like that; I would never support someone like that.

But, most of the time, the evil leader did not start their reign with huge atrocities. It may have started with a fight that many of their followers did support.

It's easy to say "I would never support an atrocity", and maybe even say "I would never support someone who talks about any group as less than human".

The problem is, it's always easier to see this in your opponents than in yourself. I'm not making a false equivalence or an excuse; I'm saying it's really difficult and we should not be surprised when it is difficult. When the group mentality gets to a certain point, any reasonable nudge or criticism is taken as an attack.

I don't know of a great solution, but I think about how cult members are de-programmed. They have to remember or find something in the real world that they value. There has to be a bridge, not a demand that they renounce their beliefs.

> Was also surprised to read that Montana emits as much ghg’s as Ireland.

Does Ireland have much industry to speak of? I was under the impression that most of Ireland's "industrial" output was effectively tax services. Montana is heavily weighted towards agri-industrial production, so it's not surprising to me that net energy usage per person is ~5x higher.
The marginal driver cost is what creates equilibriums in the conventional modes. Either they're scheduled to work a shift, or they're owner-operators. Both create constraints on how many vehicles can be dispatched, the form they have to take to satisfy demand, and the logistics around them(train tracks, parking spaces, automotive supply services, etc.). The large footprint of private auto and taxis lies within these constraints, as does the high-cap status of buses and trains.

The new modes are actually just the cost of the vehicle and support team, which means that the fleet can feasibly operate tiny, light, high frequency vehicles instead of or in addition to huge, consolidated, scheduled ones. You could have a self-driving three-wheeler, a self-driving minibus and so on. Loading can be standardized by policy.

That they aren't doing that right away just reflects the current cost structure and legal framework being weighted towards larger prototypes following conventional modes. But the reason why a robotaxi makes a better taxi is because it isn't a taxi in practice, it's transit. It's centrally planned, it has standardized fleet management.
Its not nothing. It means there has to be an analysis done on the impacts, if you fail to do the analysis, someone can sue and get the policy reversed.
TIL a16z has a GitHub repo with a bunch of cool stuff.
A reasonable response. Priorities differ. But to me the point is to provide a GUI-based means to edit a score. I'm doing bog-simple, single-note-at-a-time transcriptions of trumpet parts by ear... and finding it to be cumbersome as hell. That strikes me as a poor experience.

Reportedly, Finale lets you drag notes around. Can't speak for the others.

Regardless of how important anyone thinks this feature is, I could accept the limitation more easily if the application didn't pretend to let you do it and then refuse. To do so wastes the user's time, which should be stringently avoided.

Give small loans to your extended family and friends instead. You’ll be surprised how many will pay you back, even when you tell them they don’t have to pay it back ever, or can when they’re able to.

This is how financing worked for a long time. You’re the best judge of your network’s need for money, and if it’ll actually be helpful or be wasted on something wasteful or destructive like drugs.

Larger loans to help family buy a home or a small business can be transformative. You can even ask for equity or to be repaid with interest when the property is sold (this makes it a loan and not taxable income).

These human connections to your lending are incredibly fulfilling for everyone involved. Just be sure you can lose it entirely with no hurt feelings or holding it over them.
