Why AI Is Harder Than We Think (2021) [pdf]
My vet told me a lot of dogs have high pain thresholds and/or will hide their injuries, so they won't necessarily stop eating from mouth pain. He wasn't trying to upsell me, I was asking why my dog was avoiding food and wondering whether it could be a tooth problem (so unlikely to be the case).

That doesn't help much I know, just make sure you get advice from people you trust have a care about dog's quality of life.

It’s true. But also perhaps more nuanced. Many people see disability as a purely negative experience, something to avoid at all costs, synonymous with illness. But it is a slightly different axis: Both medical and societal in nature. Thus we have the idea that it is not the person who is disabled, but society that disables the person. And separately many people have it as a central part of their identity, something to be proud of. Hence identity first language: “disabled person” vs “person with disability”. I am a person who holds it both as a burden of sorts, but also an identity, and a constantly fluctuating commentary on the ableism in the way we’ve built society. Disability is a complex framework.

Always comes back to uncertainty. The things we avoid have somewhat unpredictable outcomes. Fear of calling someone: who will answer, will they resent the interruption. Fear of submitting work: is it what they wanted, is it good enough. Avoiding starting a creative job for a client: am I taking the right tack, am I wasting my time?
I had a friend who could do this. It was remarkable how easy it was for him. I asked him how he did it, he said it was easy. When he thought of the word, the visual image of the word would appear right in front of him in his mind, and he would just scan the letters backwards. It made me realize that some people's "default" mental powers can be significantly different.
> People are gay, trans, asexual, left handed and there is nothing they can do about it, as they have been born with that trait.

Do we actually know that yet though? Handedness seems to be genetic, but for the rest we really don't know the causes.

> "If you are born trans, that is okay, we accept you." ... this should be a acceptable view to you too.

Why? It shouldn't matter if it's innate, a development 'disorder', a choice, or a result of trauma or social contagion. We can just accept people anyway.

> By far the biggest catch with Fedora is typing apt by mistake over and over and forgetting you're using Fedora.

Never attempted to run apt accidentally, but as a joke, I took a script that was meant for Ubuntu, and ran it. It prompted me if I wanted to install apt, I was like WTF? I hit `y`, thinking it was a joke. Turns out, they apparently had an freaking apt package in the main repo ready for installation. I just found this really cursed. At least I get the Super Cow Powers[1] that comes with apt.

Anecdotally, every optometrist and ophthalmologist I met, who wasn't selling me something at the time of conversation, was pretty dismissive of the whole "blue light filtering" business.

The attempt to block blue light has been with us so long (like a decade or so), the blue-light-filtering products so well commercialized, and yet the underlying claim that blue light affects sleep remains to be inconclusive at best, which makes me doubly wary of its validity.
Thanks for pointing to Java. I have not thought about it, because I use Java only very seldom.

The members of the current instance are not really an extra type of variable.

They are the members of one hidden function parameter. While they are distinguished in the source code, in the translated machine code there is no difference between them and the explicit function parameters.

I agree that this is a good feature of C++, that it avoids the bugs caused by accidental captures by giving control to the programmer on what may be captured.

Nevertheless, perhaps it would have been possible to have a simpler implementation of the C++ lambda-declared functions than with the current function objects, by simply disallowing the capture of stack-allocated local variables.
> it’s easy to misunderstand ability as a binary thing.

Yes. And also the notion of ability/disability has too many connotations, it makes it really hard to discuss the subject.

One could posit that having less than perfect vision is a disability (for whatever value of "perfect"). But people will fight tooth and nail to not fall into that category, they'll explain how much they still can do without correction, or straight refuse the definition because glasses compensate their vision.

I think at the very basis, accepting that there isn't a "norm" in the first place could help a lot. If there's no normal people, we can start discussion how we're all different and will be good or bad at different things.

Another funny lens: people entering a foreign culture where they can't read nor speak should also fall into the (temporary?) disabled bucket. And same for so many other mindane situations.

Mea culpa as well. To the extent I've successfully developed empathy for disabled and marginalized people and some degree of understanding, it's mostly been because my privileged life was interrupted by injury, or something else happened to impact myself personally.

I read this article on HN recently about trying to cultivate these experiences deliberately, I'd be curious what you thought of it. It seems like an interesting idea but I have mixed feelings about cosplaying as a person with a disability I don't actually have.

It certainly has its niches, but most people are viewing documents on their phones these days, and PDFs and phones don't work great together.
I had a friend that can do it as well. He said he had dyslexia as a child but he grew over it and he started to use it.

When he'd get upset at teachers in high school, he'd talk back at them and wouldn't hold back anything but would say it all backwards.

As if you dont need nodes, pods and a runtime for Nomad.

An ex-colleague “sold” us developers nomad once as an easier, better alternative to k8s. They used exact same arguments, and we ended up with Nomad for our test and staging environments. It was such a mess, while it covered basic “run this” scenarios fine, nothing like kustomize or helm for nomad existed back then (I doubt it exists now). The tooling was non-existent, neither were good practices or recommended setups - nobody seemed to know how to tie it into a ci/cd setup without a bunch of bash scripts to get basic stuff like templating working. Implementing any kind of edge case or a tricky requirement felt like we are doing breakthrough work since no documentation, guide or SO page covered anything but “simple setup of your nomad cluster in two steps” - nomad is simply not popular enough. That experience made me swear off any unpopular but “trust-me-bro-its-actually-good” software.

Sorry for the rant, your post made me remember how pissed I was at our tech stack back then.

> You mention some pretty scary KG numbers there

> I just wanted to mention to readers that even squatting a ‘measly’ 50KG or deadlifting 30KG

Yes -- this is really important to contextualize.

Barbell resistance training is actually two things:

1) A method of exercise that has a variety of well-quantified health benefits including improvements in strength, bone density, and connective tissue. More muscle also means you can eat more without getting fat.

2) A competitive strength sport (generally called powerlifting; weightlifting usually refers to the explosive overhead lifts seen at the Olympics).

Your strength goals can, and should, depend entirely on your objectives. If you're aiming to compete, a 150KG squat and 200KG deadlift would put you around the median in the lowest male weight classes.

If you just want to get in shape, it's overkill.
I had a think about this since, and it must have everything to do with experimental setup, and the existence of the observer in the experiment.

Let's set it up like this: You have 4 dads. Each dad has 2 kids covering all the combinations of kids: MM, MF, FM, FF.

Now if you define the experiment as: you are talking to a dad who has one boy. This was set up by the 4 dads being in the playground, and you walk you to one of them randomly and they tell you this. Now in such an experiment there is a 1 in 4 chance that you lead to a contradiction. Therefore in the 4 alternative universes we disband that option, leading to 3 universes. All equally likely. And in one of them the dad has 2 boys.

If the dad tells you the older kid is a boy then you have some info. What info is that? Well it depends on the precondition under which he told you that. At least a couple of options.

(a) He was going to always reveal to you a kid that was a boy, then tell you if it was the older or younger kid. It happens to be the older one this time.

(b) He was going to tell you the gender of the oldest kid.

In version (a) there are no universes discarded, so you are still at 1/3

In version (b) the universe where the older kid is not a boy has been discarded. There are now 2 universes in which you exist so it is 1/2.
LoRaWAN and MIOTY are LPWAN technologies, i.e., they have the particularity of sending small amounts of data with long range and low power energy consumption. In this research, we investigate the two LPWANs, LoRaWAN and MIOTY in order to compare their efficiency in industrial environments. The purpose of this benchmarking is to distinguish which is better for the Industrial Internet of Things IIoT according to a defined scope and metrics.
Every game informs you about telemetry in the EULA nowadays. It doesn't even do it in complicated jargon it literally says "we collect data on the way you play - agree or disagree?" You have to agree or disagree before starting the game and if you disagree it disables the telemetry completely.

If people don't like to read and spam accept then it's their fault

edit: there is EULA for nintendo switch

The main point of this article is to inspire a bit more empathy and consideration for those with disabilities. He knows he's privileged, and that the 4/5 people who aren't currently disabled (by Sarah's count) are too; he's trying to help the 4/5 see themselves in the 1/5, too. Doesn't feel constructive to call him out for it

Up to 100%, and no more.
Two things help a lot:

1. This stretch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBafLfMXeis

2. Ice packs - avoid heat for sure.

And try to stay off your feet.

Last Monday, I think tightened a tendon on the front part of my right foot because I had tried to walk too fast the previous evening. Thankfully, understanding the principles of stretching and icing helped me recover from that in 2 days (it wasn't as serious as the Achilles tendon tightening).

Just take it slow and give yourself time to heal. The good news is that this isn't chronic (what the physiotherapist told me). After you heal, just take care to be stretched and warmed up before putting repetitive stress on your tendons.

Edit: When you are injured, the rest of your body has to put itself under extra stress when you move to offset the lack of mobility that the tendonitis causes. So you increase the probability of other injuries (in my case, the tightening of other tendons). Try to be super careful and super patient.
A great paper. It mentions Lighthill? Gets my uptick.

I'd add a fifth fallacy to the 4: absence of a theory of mind. "It just works" is not a theory. "Moar" is not a theory. Without a theoretical underpinning of why its intelligent, how can you ascribe building blocks towards it? Remember, dolphin brains are physically bigger than ours. Size isn't everything, although richness of interconnects may be, but how they prune and work requires a theory to be modelled.
Are you just regurgitating reddit advice or have you gone through this and advised gym goers with success?

Couple of miles line of sight. But depends on the spreading factor and bandwidth.
I can do that with other services too without risking PayPal though. If it is national transfers I can both use a national payment app or even a bank transfer - both instant transfer.

PayPal might give some protection but it also freezes some accounts and keep the money. No other service I have heard of have as bad a reputation.
I really like the track you are on with this. Love the features listed and there are so many scalable options for you as marketplace is becoming a major part of online sellers and local sellers lives. Can't up vote this enough.
> So the key is too limit overloading the part of the brain that deals with anxiety, which probably means doing things you are fearing to do so that you no longer fear doing it.

Which is pretty much the go-to advise for a lot of people with anxiety as far as I'm aware.
I wonder if this shift of processing areas is behind the the "detachment" or "depersonalisation" (feeling like you're in autopilot, or not being you) that seems to be a common response to high anxiety.
Medium format digital is a thing for those with deep pockets (e.g. Fujifilm GFX). Large format, on the other hand…

I feel very conflicted when seeing young people who are out of shape. They have the best possible potential for increasing fitness due to fast recovery. An investment that pays massive dividends in a very very short time. A fit body pays back on so many levels it is a paradox why would anyone not be fit.
XML is only concerned with whether a document is well-formed, not its conformity to a given schema. Schemas like XSD, DTD, etc can be plugged in later. Many systems just have an ad hoc schema.

> At least with JSON and HTML, you don't need a separate definition file for basic, primitive data types.

Unless I’m missing your meaning, this seems like an apples-to-oranges comparison. HTML is not a general-purpose format like JSON. It’s a very complicated document format that is validated with reference to an external spec.

I think XML is a great fit for a document format that can become arbitrarily complex yet still easy to author and validate. It’s obviously a really poor fit for a wire transport protocol.

> I don't think a house can survive 100C.

Well, you can think that, no one will stop you.

Worth pointing out, though, that I literally linked you to design standards for Australian houses intended to survive:

A house in a bushfire may be faced with three ‘waves’ of assault. The first is the radiant heat that arrives just ahead of the fire front itself, which can start to build as much as thirty minutes before the arrival of the flames.

Once the flames themselves hit, a house in a flame zone environment could be subjected to temperatures as high as 1000°C for a couple of minutes.

But even after this initial front passes, the danger is not over; there is still a threat from residual radiant heat that takes a while to ease and embers that continue to bombard the house for many hours.

and suggested you look for the extreme test videos that subject various steel frame mockups to a battery of flamethrowers to simulate Australian bushfires.

Again, 100C is the tempreture of boiling water; what's the ignition point of hardwoods? what's the sagging point of steel?
what are they getting for the poor visibility tradeoff compensated by electronics? I have no idea. If it's safety, then yes, that would be progress.
A similar vein but muuuuch simpler for anybody who isn't up for weights.

Each day, before anything else:

1. 3 mins stretching

2. 20 (real) situps (3 mins)

3. 10 pushups (2 mins)

I actually usually do a good bit more exercise more than this, but this is my minimum day starting routine, no matter where I am, or what I'm doing. It takes less than 10 minutes and keeps a bare minimum of strength in your lower back and arms. The lower back part is key for people who work in chairs all day. You can do a lot of types of exercise and still not maintain those lower back muscles which are so key to ensure your lumbar is protected.
As you wrote that, the sun is still low (in practice) on the horizon even here in Berlin.

Ultimately, while I never reached the 200 kg / 440 lb he mentions on the deadlift I got to: (in lbs)

Back Squat 275 2 rm

Front Squat 225 2 rm

Deadlift 375 2 rm

Bench 175 5x5

OHP 135 5x5

C&J 125 1x5

Snatch 105 1x5

With my primary program being SS and then SS like (do the set 5x5 or appropriate at the work weight, advance by appropriate increment). That's the rough master plan at least.

Not advising. Merely sharing my experience. Simplicity of adherence maximized adherence. Visible progress increased adherence.

It's fun to watch how it blends together videos, but none of the three example videos are actually of high enough quality to be useful.

1. The boat video transforms the coast into rolling waves and looks super weird

2. The swan/duck video looks better than the others, but the lighting is obviously wrong when looking closer. Looks like a cardboard cutout bird.

3. The car video looks like a video game from the 2000s, with low quality textures and wheels not turning.

Again, super interesting to see how it can come up with these "by itself", but utterly useless at the moment.
It's funny you think there isn't a difference between the humanity of your parents and some faceless governamental bureaucracy.

> You could (for instance) pay people not to use power. Thats a model being trialled in the UK and it was enormously popular. You get everyone with a TOU (time of use) smart meter and you tell them for every KWh they can demonstrate they stop using you will rebate them for that months bill. People RUSH to turn off devices, and sit in the dark with phones on battery to make some vig.

More sustainable than that is charging people less for off-peak use. My EV charges between 23.30 and 05.30 for a quarter of the KWh rate than normal. We can even schedule the dishwasher and washing machine to take advantage of the cheap rate.
Nice to see the maintainer stop being so stubborn.

I wish I could say this left a good taste in my mouth as a strong proponent of Rust.

Especially after dtolnay banned me on the repo after I commented on the PR. Can't even give thumbs up on someone else's comment let alone open an issue or a PR.

We are born totally helpless and die in various states of disrepair but the bulk of our moral disposition as expressed during our temporary window of "ability" does not at all reflect this fundamental truth.

This contradiction is at the heart of social and political frictions. How much does an individual at their peak owe to the collective that "abled" them. Why should anyone take care of them during decline?

Its not a trivial problem. The feeling of invincibility in our youth, ignoring - if not despising - the weak and adulating the strong and capable is probably an evolutionary adaptation.

Yet our predicament as an intelligent and moral species is to understand this core reality and find the right balance. Use the various forms of invented technology to push the limits of ability (augment) without forgeting how it is all bootstraped and held together.

Yes I have gone through these, started with SS, saw basically no progress, then moved to 5/3/1 and did some other routines over the past several years. At my peak before a recent injury I was at 225 bench, 325 deadlifting and 275 squat.
I was about to nitpick that, then realised one can fake long exposure with a sequence of pictures.

The author mentioned car lights doing light painting, which is achieved by compositing at least two pictures (one long expo for lights, one for the car which would otherwise be blurry as well)

It's really because C doesn't have a proper dependency management system like modern languages do. If it did there's no reason you couldn't import a third party sorting algorithm in the kernel. You can do that in Rust for example, although you would just use the built in sort in this case.

The best way I've seen the monty hall problem explanation improved upon was by increasing the number of doors. The difference between a 1/2 and 1/3 chance is so subtle to a human. Change it to 1,000,000 doors and suddenly it becomes very obvious why your odds improve on swapping.
If dtolnay planned ahead of time and indeed expected everything, kudos to him, because he had the guts to trade his credence with public good (I don't). That said, I would appreciate a confirmation that this is a very exceptional stunt that won't be repeated again.
I just checked a LAANC interface (Aloft Air Control) for 1 Hacker Way. Flights up to 250 ft AGL can be authorized in there. It's just inside KPAO controlled space, but that does not mean flights can't be authorized -- authorizations are the whole reason LAANC exists.

Why do you think they'd be prohibited by federal law?
