Please check yourself here; who is “we”? Clearly the Portuguese and Spanish still love their pulpo, so we as a “collective” of humans have apparently not collectively re-evaluated our values over time, deciding that eating meat is cruel and savage.

You have, and that’s completely okay.

But to unilaterally call a culture’s cuisine “absolutely reprehensible,” is, in my opinion, the actually reprehensible act.

In particular, calling someone’s cuisine (or really almost anything else) “absolutely reprehensible” is a great, surefire way to not convince anyone your point has merit.

To be ultra clear: I have no issues with vegetarians, vegans, or anyone else. My issue is with people who have issue with those who have different beliefs or ways of life, labeling those people as “absolutely reprehensible.”

That, in essence, is my issue with the original comment.
Thanks for sharing the Elixir love!

More people should do this openly I think, since it’s still vastly underrated and fellow alchemists seem to be too humble to evangelize!
Presumably part of the appeal of a small reactor is it's cost. If you're trying to do things on a budget, then there's smaller budget for safety.
AI is going to give a lot of that data that would have otherwise died eternal life. As the tech evolves, businesses will be able to monetize by selling data (for walled gardens) or their pages will all be scraped, cleaned up and resold by multiple orgs (for stuff on the open web).
This is certainly very interesting.

Unfortunately, I tried describing a few terms across philosophy and psychology and for all of them, the entry I was aiming for was only around the ~20th rank. (Far more popular but less accurate items were populated above it -- e.g. no matter what I typed trying to define a specific modality of psychotherapy, "psychotherapy" was always the #1 result.)

In contrast, I've used ChatGPT to identify the names of certain niche subfields when I couldn't remember what they were called, and it was right every time.

I love the idea of an AI service specifically designed to identify the names of things from descriptions. But I don't think restricting it to Wikipedia (or Wikipedia page titles) is the right approach, and it seems like general-purpose LLM's are doing a great job.

Still, as a proof of concept and as something you can run locally in the browser, this is extremely cool.
this is usually due to a lack of data in OpenStreetMap, if you go to https://osm.org and check one of the addresses, is it there?

the good thing about OpenStreetMap is that if something is missing, you can add it in 1 minute :)
It's really cool, but why doesn't it link to the wikipedia article?
Its kind of a fun thought, but the past will become more like the future, we can guess what probably happened, we'll never really know for sure. Just like I probably know what will happen tomorrow, but I'll never be sure.
So, a bit worse than the average driver? Surely there's some better evidence you can throw at us ;)

I'm kind of on your side. Not being a dope decreases the crash rate by 90% or so per mile last I checked ("crashes caused by driver error"). Drive enough and you'll still become a statistic though.

You would think... During COVID I discovered that my upstairs neighbor had a regular aerobics time that apparently involved jumping or skipping or something. Weekday mornings, like clockwork, despite having a gym in the building.

There are definitely advantages to living in a condo or apartment, but the reality is that living in close proximity to a bunch of other people is going to be noisier. New condos tend to be better, but impact noise in particular still carries to adjacent units. Same with noise carrying from common areas like hallways.
I take it as analogous to the association of a matrix to a linear transformation. This association is via multiplication.

i love the names for these colors. very evocative of singapore landmarks that i didn't previously realize were that strongly associated with a color. "Monsoon Grey" did get a laugh from me - i used to joke that there are basically 2 seasons in SG - wet and wetter.

the scrollytelling is also a work of art. the rescrambling towards a neighborhood palette was a wow moment for me. i feel like online data journalism is its own art form that deserves a museum.
Let's all hope w3.org doesn't forget to renew their domain. Because if they do, all these links to "Cool URIs don't change" will suddenly become extremely ironic. We're safe at least up to 2029...
The first Cochrane "review" only looks at a single study which uses Allicin powder at 180mg not whole garlic:

> In this updated review, we identified eight trials as potentially relevant from our searches. Again, only one trial met the inclusion criteria

The second link is not specific to garlic and the part where garlic is briefly mentioned cites the original review and the same, single, study.

The review's conclusion is, imo, valid. It's that *there is not enough evidence to say there's an effect*. Your comment, and the way people tend to utilize these reviews, clearly conflates the concept of "not enough evidence" with "evidence against".

You could not be more wrong. Research the history of of the Class I railroads and they all had prestigious passenger service that became too unprofitable to run thanks to dwindling ridership and the cancelation of the USPS contracts in 1964. Their rolling stock was turned over to Amtrak at its formation in 1971.

Interesting how this very thread will reinforce (for Google indexer) the unwanted associations between the number and the other terms.
I don't know, I wanted to like this, but I didn't get any relevant matches for any of the searches I tried:

* "The wizard in The Lord of the Rings": No Gandalf or Saruman, only books about LOTR and such.

* "Protagonist of Scorsese's Taxi Driver": No Travis Bickle.

* "A person that plants trees for a living": Somehow a gardener isn't on the list.

* "Curly-haired painter on TV": No Bob Ross anywhere.

* "Unusually shaped modern art museum in Spain": Bilbao does show up as number 4, but none of the others are unusually shaped.

* "Dog shaped like a sausage": Surely a dachshund should be in the top results.

You're wrong, sorry, it's very obvious to see using your browser tools that GitHub is in fact requesting those records when the link is clicked versus loading every comment:

load_more?after_cursor

Where do we see cursors? Typically in pagination. So it's obvious if you want to see everything and load everything, you can do so and it's devoid of javascript so you can ctrl-f all day.

Love this demo but as others noted it's really easy to find queries where it performs poorly (e.g. typos).

Looks like the embedding model used (all-minilm-l6-v2) currently ranks 35th on the hugging face leaderboard [0]. I'd love to try with other models if anyone wants to +1 this demo :). This feels like a nice dataset to build intuition around embeddings used for RAG etc.

Palais des congrès de Paris,
Landmarks in Paris,
Palais de la Bourse, Lyon,

no mention of the most famous pointy building in Paris...

Maybe sentence embedding of the entire article is not the best thing for this kind of application.

Even to the extent that that may be true, it is going to be an average: different people's bodies will be different in what they can absorb, and the same body at different times will be different. Sometimes dramatically, particularly if you have a deficiency.

You can get away without knowing how to parallel park in probably 99% (not being hyperbolic) of the country just fine. Even when I lived in LA, you could easily find parking that doesn't require parallel parking. I'm far more concerned about the folks who can't deal with backing out of "normal" parking spaces.

That often ends up completely eliminating several viewpoints and regions from national politics. Who gives a crap about something that affects farmers? There's like 10,000 of them. You could get that many votes with a billboard in a big city.

Looking at Canada's population distribution, you could win an election with just 82% of the votes in Quebec and Ontario or 67% of those + British Columbia.

The intent of these systems are for the people to be represented in and governed by their province, and their province to be represented in and governed by the federal government. Everyone and everything is equally represented to the governing body above them, but not necessarily to the level above that.

Tangentially, the federal government is meant to primarily rule over the provinces, not the people. Laws are supposed to be passed at that level by a majority of the provinces, not of the people. Quebec has every right to pass whatever law it wants to rule over its people, but what right does it have to use its large population to subject Manitoba or Prince Edward Isles to whatever rules it wants?

It breeds divisiveness. Why would Nunavut or Manitoba still want to be part of Canada if their votes don't matter in any conceivable way? Even banded together, they're 3.7% of the population and no politician is going to listen to them. Nunavut is 85% Inuit; it wouldn't shock me if their political inclinations are different than Quebec/Ontario both due to cultural differences and geographical differences. Why wouldn't they just try to go back to having their own tribal government, since the federal system has devalued their input to nothing?

Federal systems are meant to let provinces emphasize the needs of their own citizens, and to let provinces be unique as a result of their population.

Tell HN: College Park, GA Cops Want to Jail Me for Stolen Identity
Title gives the basic setup. Some short ginger stole my real ID, modified it, then stole a car. The cops won't talk to my lawyer until I show up in person (presumably for them to arrest me). I've had this hanging over my head for about a year now. I don't want to show up to resolve this because they have already demonstrated such wanton incompetence and disregard for my innocence, that I honestly don't trust them to release me duly once they have me in custody. I seriously don't understand how they can just refuse to speak to my legal representative. Any advice on what to do?
It’s possible. I suspect it may partly be that stories about elementary teachers being stubbornly wrong are more interesting than stories of them being stubbornly right or being open minded.
The op was asking what we, as individuals, could do. You argued (very poorly) that we shouldn't do anything simply because it's none of our businesses.

When pressed on that (here and elsewhere in this thread) you keep pivoting to talk about what the US government, billionaires and corporations should or shouldn't do. But that wasn't the question asked.

I can only assume you keep pivoting to that angle because those are easier arguments to make and involve considerably less self-reflection.
The Raspberry Pi OS Install (and some other Linux installs) simply change the image on the screen detailing various features or whatever. You may or may not see them all. You may or may not see them repeat. But what you do see, is that the system hasn't crashed and is still doing something.

So a fake progress meter isn't really necessary.

While billionaires may have the resources to build their own jet airports, they can't simply place them adjacent to military airbases due to national security concerns and regulatory restrictions. So, where do these ultra-wealthy individuals fly their private jets from? If they the Air Force base for their takeoffs and landings, it suggests a level of access and a close relationship with the military that is uncomfortably close

> You make me realise I'm not sure what makes a game "strategy" per se.

The business world can’t even agree on this one. There are maybe as many HBR rants swearing by Michael Porter’s definition as there are indignant talking heads criticizing it. Same for all the flavors of Nash economics or ESS in biology.

For a game to be ‘strategy’, I’d say some element of deductive reasoning or foreplanning being a prerequisite for (better odds of) success is necessary, but not sufficient. A min decision space complexity that makes the former non-trivial is likely sufficient.

Some might argue that decision making under uncertainty, or some version of stochastic optimization is necessary too. Or that strategy (as opposed to logic) is only relevant when more than one agent is decisioning at some level - making a clearer distinction with puzzle solving, PvE, emergent gameplay or meta strategy. Are they right? Maybe. Does it make any difference beyond gatekeeping? Probably not. Some of the best designers I know purposefully blur the lines between established genres when creating their games.

> Games like Agricola don't feel very strategic to me, in that there is not much scope for long term planning, or predicting what other players will do.

BGG often has heated debates on this point. I think it’s mostly a eurogame vs american-style thing (I’m a fan of both camps for different reasons).

Fossil fuel in a generator completely solves that problem. Looking at my usage for last year, I would've needed to burn about 20 gallons of gasoline to cover my solar shortfall. All of it was in two tranches during atmospheric river events. If my full solar array was up, it would have been zero gallons.

And I already have the generator and the fuel because PG&E uptime is bad and forces me to maintain parallel infrastructure anyway. Once income-based connection charges go live, there's no reason for me to stay connected to the grid at all.
...while you're traveling? Can you provide more details? I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around your use case.
There is a difference between healthy skepticism and blind, fanatic skepticism. The latter is not far from the dark ages when the church was burning people for claiming the earth is not flat or not the center of the universe, only in a more civilized environment, but still anything outside the currently accepted norm is disregarded as impossible and the people with such claims are ridiculed, just as it is happening with me now, and not even because of claiming something, just giving it the benefit of the doubt. This is not how scientific progress is made. Given the amount of evidence and witnesses, it at least deserves to be studied, not just coldly dismissed.
