I agree with public speaking. Whenever I see someone able to even create a video and upload with a face, I am in awe with their confidence.

Public speaking just takes everything to the next level. How can people be so confident about themselves?

For example some technical blogger post it like they own their posts. Going through that feels like the author is a all-knowing being.

How does that even kick in within a person?

They are the same, because there’s no such thing as the “speed of light”.

Theoretically as I understand it, everything moves at exactly the same speed through space-time, whether it is light, the Earth, etc.

At non-relativistic speeds, this means moving along the time axis at approximately one second per second, with the rest of the movement in space. At relativistic speeds, higher proportions of the “speed” of an object are along the time axis.

As the energy requirements for moving massive objects through space at relativistic speeds are huge, we can only really observe this phenomenon with light, which has no mass, and therefore does not need huge amounts of energy to move through space.

As a result, we call 186k miles per second the “speed of light” when actually it is just the maximum speed anything can travel through space, and due to light being massless, it happens to be the speed that light travels through space too.
I'm not the OP, but a word to the wise: 99% of the time that people decide to reimagine something to make it more powerful and advance the state of the art, they leave out important features from previous technology, which "mysteriously" then hampers adoption (and drives some adopters crazy who have those missing features in their needs/workflow)

In this sense it's not just the literature that needs to be reviewed, it's also feature lists (functional at least, and sometimes UI) of prior commercial and open source products.
I have ADHD, which should really be titled something like "Executive Functioning Disorder". That's the main symptom: not having enough executive function ability.

So what happens when my executive functioning is stolen? Debt. I am eternally indebted to any task that demanded more executive functioning than I could provide. And society demands I pay up one way or another: that's the ADHD tax. Couldn't finish homework? Gotta stay after school. Couldn't work on the company project before its deadline? Get fired. Couldn't cold-call 2 dozen mental health clinics to find an opening that works with my insurance? No meds or therapy for me.

Every social system that interacts with me is designed with a baseline expectation of executive functioning: I experience that as a DDoS attack.

I think both terms are correct, and you are welcome to use whichever best fits the context you are using it in.
> 300M years is very short period of time, unless everything cooled very very uniformly, which is not the case

~300M years is the time between the Big Bang singularity and the CMB, but not really relevant. The entire universe was everywhere as hot as the surface of a star at the time of the CMB, so any evidence of galaxies forming before that is surprising.

The surprisingly high uniformity of the temperature of the CMB — isotropic to roughly one part in 100,000 — is one of the reasons the Big Bang model replaced one of the older competing hypotheses (continuous creation IIRC).

So it is in fact the case that everything cooled very very uniformly and I'm not sure why you think otherwise?

I'm also not clear what you're saying with

> so we should see a transition somewhere

Given the CMB is itself the transition that we see.

> Sometimes, somewhere there must be a galaxy past CMB.

I think here you're mixing up space and time.

It's reasonable (please permit my use of conventional language rather than 4-vectors) to assume that a galaxy exists on the other side in space of the CMB as we see it now, but that happens at a point in time after the recombination epoch began and space became transparent, and light from that event hasn't reached us yet; when it does, the apparent distance of the CMB will be large enough for the galaxy to appear on this side.

Are you familiar with light cones and the convention of one space axis and one time axis? It might help you visualise it if you draw what's going on.
Thanks, those are interesting! I didn't think of them and I can see your point
So, Mac doesn't come with a package manager. There are things you can do with port and brew, to alleviate some pain.

Me personally, I fool around with a lot of languages, and sometimes I don't quite keep every project up to date with the latest version. For work, the situation is even more challenging, because I don't have the authority to go tell teams to upgrade or not upgrade, but sometimes I need to build their projects.

None of this is really Mac specific. I used to use virtual box for this, which worked pretty well. I could set up a baseline environment and snapshot new boxes with new language revs.

Docker can kind of cover this, but I tend to over do it, breaking things out into the one you build with, and the one you run with, and it's fine, but it's a lot to keep in my head. So, I'm kinda flakey about that.

Now, I'm slowly building up some proficiency with nix. I think this is what I really want, to swap out the whole chain of system dependencies, and build docker containers or vms out of that if I need them.

Perhaps I'm a poor sysadmin. _everything_ locally installed makes things real weird after a while (years).
How (im)practical would it be to directly drive the compressor of a heatpump by a source of mechanical energy?

For some reason I am almost expecting jacquesm to show up with some first-hand knowledge ;)

I had accidentally gotten a giant bottle a year or more ago, and had been nursing that along until this past weekend when the last of the last of it was gone. I figured that surely they would have solved the problem by now, but looking in my grocery app I saw only options for bottles for $50+. Went to Kroger that evening and they had an "Ox" brand and another brand that I picked up, and, honestly, the Ox brand I'm not sure I could tell from Huy Fong, which is what I had always gotten before.

On TikTok there was a recipe for it that I'd like to try, but I haven't seen red jalapinos in the grocery store. It's basically peppers, garlic, salt, vinegar, maybe brown sugar, and ferment every day for 3-5 days. Sounds pretty easy, especially since my wife is well versed with fermeting (sour dough, kombucha...)

That is highly pedantic but yes, I should have used Great Britain. Though in fairness even our government frequently forgets that Northern Ireland exists.
There's no reason you couldn't run the compressor of a heat pump mechanically. Then the question becomes is it more efficient to generate electricity to run a motor (or a linear compressor, I suppose), or use a gearbox to change the rotation speed. Plus or minus if you need mechanical air movement in the conditioned space.
You’re not counting the embodied emissions of all the hardware inside the data centers.

You can fix your immune system to stop overreacting to allergens with allergy immunotherapy. Especially for inhaled allergens (pollen, pet dander, dust), this treatment is proven.

I haven't used Haskell in a few years, but back then one which really bit me was DeriveAnyClass (introduced in 7.10.1) and GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving (introduced in 6.8.1).

Until the introduction of DerivingVia in 8.6.1 it was impossible to tell Haskell which deriving strategy to use - which is extremely annoying when one library requires the one, another library requires the other, and due to issues with orphan instances you have to use them in the same file.

> Many extensions make Haskell easier to learn since they remove unnecessary restrictions imposed by the standard.

I completely agree, and Haskell 2010 is obviously lacking. Unfortunately, there are also a lot of extensions which people have abused to their fullest extent to create completely unreadable code.

Things like UnicodeSyntax and all the syntax overloading are heavily overused, and you simply can't expect a beginner to immediately grok phrases like "if OverloadedLabels and MagicHash are both enabled then x#y means x# y, but if only OverloadedLabels is enabled then it means x #y".

And of course there's the whole cuckoo's egg of Template Haskell just waiting to blow up in your face...

Hi I am the cofounder of CodeStory!

In my experience I spend way too much time fixing the output of AI assistants rather than working on the next thing. It slows me down, even after the speed ups.

And generating the right code at first shot is not something I would expect from any engineer (unless we are working with compiled languages), giving access to simple tools like linters and static analysis tools goes a long way, not just for humans but for these AI agents to improve their work.

Not necessarily, but even if so, the fact that all N million minus one of them incorrectly think they are the special one, results in the sea of crap we have today.

Another tough pill for marketers to please to swallow: Even IF the product is great, AND it's exactly what I need, AND I would be happy to buy it...

I don't want to be actively or passively contacted uninvited by companies, even if I would be interested in their products. I'm not shopping. I don't want to hear about it.
nvm doesn’t stop npm modules from installing locally. many npm modules have pre/post install scripts that execute binaries and such that I’d rather not execute locally

Docker for Redis/Mongo is reasonable, but npm dependencies creeping into the system is something you can’t really easily undo other than a full wipe and reinstall of the OS. Especially when certain modules require sudo to install

There are also some german projects to integrate datacenters into the district heating nets. Capturing the waste heat and using it for heating homes allows us to utilize a very large percentage of the electricity pumped into a datacenter one way or another.
> One effect of updating the language is that you exclude people of a certain generation.

Your argument is that making language more inclusive is, in fact, exclusionary because people of certain generations are, presumably, incapable of updating their language and thus will continue to go around saying the old, exclusionary things and thus being shunned by the younger generations?

Do you not want to think about that for a bit and consider how utterly ludicrous in sounds in the face of, y'know, reality?

I read some of the HTMX essays [0] last week due to it being accepted into the GitHub accelerator program.

So, a fully RESTful API must output HTML. I'm not going to go into why but that's what Roy Fielding (the creator of REST), Martin Fowler and the HTMX guy(s) say.

The HTMX guy(s) also say that of course this fully RESTful API that outputs HTML is sometimes bad because you don't want to have to parse data out of HTML. So, the optimal setup is to have both a fully RESTful HTML API and the more common JSON API.

I also think that for the fully RESTful HTML API, it doesn't make sense for the outputted HTML to have any JS.

So, the question I'm pondering at the moment is, is a fully RESTful HTML API simply a website that doesn't use any JS? If so, then the optimal setup is to have an SSR website that doesn't use JS and a JSON API. Of course, under the hood, the website and the JSON API use the same lower level API (eg. SQL queries and back-end functions).

What's crazy for me personally is that this is exactly how I have set up Comment Castles. There's the no JS website [1] and the JSON API [2]. But I didn't build a no JS website because of REST, I just prefer websites that have no front-end JS.

I believe it needs extra work but can be done. It's a relatively common question in the Hackintosh community and they've figured it out.
This is a great question, and touches on one of the challenges I've been having positioning Datasette.

Is Datasette an ELT tool? That's part of the ground it covers, but it's not a primary focus.

Is it a visualization tool? Same problem.

I worry that picking a specific vertical for it instantly limits me, in terms of how people think about the product, how pricing can work and suchlike.

But the alternative is trying to define a new category entirely, which is absurdly difficult.
Yes, "we" protect TSMC and others like them by providing Taiwan with weapons that makes a war/invasion very expensive and show that anyone that does that will have a though time.

But you "have no interest in funding proxy wars with [your] tax dollars" or to "return to a Cold War era", so I guess fuck Taiwan and TSMC.

Ukraine? I'm less familiar with Ukraine, but on top of having a friendly country in that part of the world and US influence (which is part of what makes the US the country it is, something you benefit from), didn't the US and the EU use some of their rocket engines or something like that? Not saying we can't survive without them, but to say there's nothing there also doesn't make sense.

After reading some of Putin's reasoning to invade Ukraine and what he said about other countries in eastern Ukraine being essentially part of Russia, I have to ask what's cheaper (since you care about your tax dollars)? To send them equipment or to be dragged to a proper war with Russia after they decide to invade NATO countries? What's hit to the global economy and how much will it affect your wallet? Assuming that you care about anyone other than yourself, how much will this affect people around you?
For a lot of folks in the Northern hemisphere, heating is the largest share of domestic electricity consumption. Same for offices. I would say there is great potential for this to reduce electricity consumption, plus the hot water can be stored without the loss at conversion that electricity has.
At our company, we use logrotate to put all logs into an S3 bucket by hostname (with a PutObject only key of course). We then have a service running in EC2 that does a cached get of those logs (based on hostname and timestamp range) then runs ripgrep over it and returns the lines that match.

It works well and requires very little maintenance, and it costs a tiny fraction of something more full-featured like Papertrail, NewRelic, etc.
Someone instantly down modded this? That's just weird.
>Puns go back thousands of years across all languages and cultures. Recognise them, try some on for size.

That's likely true, but some languages use them way more than others. For example my native (slavic) tongue avoids puns almost completely, instead relying on other forms of humour. Your post actually prompted me to find a serious research about this topic, but unfortunately I couldn't find any so I have to rely on anecdotal evidence. If anyone knows any comparative study of joke types (especially puns) between cultures, I'm very interested.

"Underwood Ranches supplied Huy Fong Foods’ peppers for 28 years. Underwood told CNBC that he could have kept up with demand if he were still the company’s supplier. After a dispute between the two parties led to a legal battle that began in 2017, the long-term relationship between the manufacturer and supplier ended.

Huy Fong Foods claimed it overpaid Underwood Ranches for its crops from the 2016 season. “In the end, Craig Underwood won a $23 million judgment from a jury that was in Ventura County, in his backyard. But he also had to pay David Tran back the $1.5 million that Huy Fong says they overpaid,” said Jane Wells"

Hey! I'm the author of this post and this is certainly true! Jetbrains products are certainly the most powerful IDEs in the list due to the amount of custom tooling they've built for each language/framework and provide a great development experience out of the box.

But VSCode's approach of having an extension-first architecture is pretty powerful too (in fact, something I learnt only recently is how much of VSCode's implementation is built on the same extension architecture that is exposed for developers to extend the editor).
Quantum mechanics makes this impossible. This would require to know the position and speed of each particle precisely and that is in violation of the Heisenberg principle.

Or it could mean that we carry on as if we were living with the flu, like back in early 2019. I don't really understand the point of your comment. If you want to argue for better healthcare, paid sick time, etc etc, don't do it from a COVID-centric point of view, but instead focus on the benefits that would fall on everyone who is sick.

IMO the pandemic potential of flu is still more serious than the coronaviruses.

Sure, but Gödel encoding is pretty much purely a theoretical exercise. I'm not sure anyone anywhere has ever practically manipulated Gödel-encoded expressions in a useful way. His original scheme also has the problem that prime factorization is rather computationally challenging--it is after all the basis of the RSA cryptosystem.

Whereas Arithmetic encoding is actually practical, extensively used, and a direct analogue to the stick.
Cursor looks very much in the ballpark and have done a good job. For us, the most important thing is not just code completion or talking with your code (there are many other tools that can do that), but giving the AI agent the freedom to Cmd+Click, Ask for References, all those things that we do in the editor.

Each interaction the user does with the editor needs to be thought out for the AI agent.. I kind of want to tell the AI agent to "follow these code pointers, and figure out how to add a widget on my website" (similar to how you would tell any other engineer in your team).

We want to build a development environment where AI and humans are working together, rather than humans being guided by the AI agent.

We are not there yet, but engineering the editor right now for these AI agents will pay out in the future as the underlying models improve.

First of all, that's not a representative sample. It might be that that is really how it is for everyone who uses food banks, or it might be completely different. A sample of two doesn't give enough information to know.

But mostly: If there are people depending on the food banks to get food because of their addictions, isn't that a sign that (at least for these people), food banks very much are neccessary? Unless one assumes that people would change their spending behaviour under enough pressure, but from what little I personally know, that would very much just be an assumption.
