I have CFS too, going on 8 years now. Small fibre neuropathy in my limbs too.

Aside from pain management (opioids, ketamine, cannabis), I haven't found anything else to be helpful, and pacing was the opposite of helpful.

You mentioned strength training... how is that possible? I don't know about you, but I have a constant, lactic acid-like burning sensation in my arms, which becomes much worse upon exertion - for example, if I life a kettle full of water, my arm is burning with a strong need to put it down within a few seconds.
Exploring Ways to Make Async Rust Easier (2021)
> Unfortunately, there is no easy way of changing B with permanent magnets.

There’s the old semi-permanent magnet trick, although this only allows a couple of discrete field strengths, not continuous tuning. Basically, a neodymium (or other hard) magnet and alnico (or other soft) magnet are put in parallel, surrounded by a pulse winding. A pulse can flip the magnetization of the alnico, but not neodymium, so you get field strengths of either neo + alnico or neo - alnico. (This is most often used sized for similar strengths to turn a “permanent” magnet on or off, but can be used in non-equal strengths as desired.)
I think people may be missing the core point of this article. As often happens on Hacker News (and the internet in general), people are responding more to the post title than the actual content.

Anton has built a new thing, https://codapi.org/ - which provides a web component that makes it easy to embed interactive code snippets for HTTP APIs, Python code and more directly in pages of documentation.

This article demonstrates this new technology in the context of the https://diataxis.fr/ documentation framework, which recommends going beyond just straight API reference documentation and ensuring you cover tutorials, how-to guides and explanations as well.

I think this is really cool.
I did not know about this. Thanks for the tip!
Yup, i transferred all mine to Porkbun. I'm happy with them so far, but domain registrars are funny like that - they're fine until they aren't.

This is content-free nonsense - it's easy to do the math, but those who are eligible for significant "credit boost" from Obama-era whatever plans are non-factors when it comes to influencing home prices in the bay area housing market for obvious reasons.

You have to be almost economically illiterate to believe any of this - it's sad how ideology shapes thought and transparent garbage like this gets published everyday.
That's very impressive. Even with so many spare parts there were always a dud cable in the mix somewhere or someone's computer refusing to recognize the network for some reason.

Not only has the vitriol not gone away, the targets have vastly expanded. Go read the worldnews subreddit coverage of the war in Ukraine, for example: lots of talk about "Russian scum" and other dehumanization of the enemy upvoted to the top.
they probably should ban advertising. That's not the same as "one we'd better avoid altogether". The fact of the matter is that people eat junk food because it tastes good, the advertising just boosts their margins.

Ok genuine question there: are companies considered the same as people when it comes to US Constitution? Does a company have free speech and the right to bear arms?
Chinese LLM Evaluation with Cleva
I am asking if there is any legal precedent for the government forcing any traditional publisher to explain what legal speech they choose or refuse to publish. If a newspaper decided they want to publish a bunch of letters sent to them by the public (as they do), is there precedent for the government compelling the newspaper to explain the basis by which they choose which letters to publish or forbid?

I think this is a case of "it's different because computers", and this wouldn't fly if it were a traditional publisher putting ink on paper.
I still remember the short period of time when it wasn't clear someone had done it on purpose, or the slightly longer period of time when it wasn't clear who had done it.

Sadly, it would have been much better for the country and the world, if it had been a domestic group of some kind. Still really bad, but not as bad.
The public's interest in knowing what the social media companies are doing to moderate their platforms. It's everything Musk complained of, not knowing about Twitter, prior to his purchasing it. A report would reasonably allow the public to come to its own conclusion whether or not these social media companies are fairly following their policies or not, or if they are targeting specific groups.

It's facially clear that Musk's issue is that he doesn't want it to be revealed that he hasn't been fair, has been arbitrary, and has been boosting the groups he's been alleged to have been boosting, because this will all be inherently reflected in the report. Also likely to be reflected in the report is information that can lead people to the conclusion that Twitter use is down, which he doesn't want to reveal because it will make his decisions look stupid.
The problem is Nvidia has no real moat. Being better technically and having better software is not enough long term for ridiculous profits, unless you have an extreme lock in. And in Nvidia's case, it is not even as if there is a wide variety of external software that has to run on any alternative. Most companies just need to run <5 ML frameworks and moving that inference to something cheaper doesn't sound too hard, and in any case puts a ceiling on what Nvidia can charge. Training will be harder, but at some level of expenditure threshold crossing, there will be enough money pumped into it by atleast the big clouds to put a ceiling on Nvidia margins there too.

The comparisons with Nvidia's long term GPU dominance are misguided. GPUs were not making anywhere near the amount of money to put an extreme pressure from all sides. When you are on track to make MSFT level money without MSFT level moat, expect pressure from all sides trying to take any available slice.

With how aggressively Microsoft EOLs older versions of their OS, we're still finding decades-old server and client systems at clients.

While Server 2003 is getting more rare and the last sighting of Windows 98/2000 has been a while, they're all running at the very least a few months after the last free security support is gone. But whether that's something you want to support as a developer is your choice to make.

ISTM one could use the same premises to reach the opposite conclusion, namely, that because awk is basically a subset of Perl (excluding CPAN, of course), many things are easier to read, often resulting in more regular, if sometimes longer code. :-)

(FWIW, I learned Perl before sed and awk, and when I was using Perl every day, it was easy enough to whip up one-liners and throwaway scripts. However, I find that as I stopped using Perl on a day-to-day basis about 17 years ago, I can't produce Perl without re-learning the language; but I can produce sed and awk a few times per year without any refresher. I suspect that -- for me -- the smallness of each of sed and awk has something to do with it. YMMV, of course.)
One possible interest: You are living in a democracy. Social media has shown that there are strong tendencies to support abolishment of democracy (or how it is also called: fascism).

It is expected of a government to resist against any tendencies to abolish democratic rule and peaceful transition of power. That is the single most important task given to a government by us. And soley for that purpose we often allow them to wear a big stick — why? Because outside of democratic rule the law is a arbitrary set of words that can be interpreted by the ruling class in any way they please and that isn't good for the individual, unless you are foolish enough to believe you'd end up in that ruling class (that is 50% of the appeal of fascism).

Now as a government would have any right to forcefully resist coup attempts and such, it can (and does) also restrict certain social movements that aim for its abolishment. Usually this happens more on the left than on the right tho, remember the whole communism craze in the US?
If different components of your system are talking over a pretend network you've already architectured yourself face first into a pile of shit. There's no argument for quality either way so I'll just use TCP sockets and save myself 2 hours when I inevitably have to get it running on Windows.
There's definitely at least one moderator at Twitter that uses that policy.
The law does not appear to mandate any particular form of expression by Twitter, other than filing paperwork that documents their intended policies. Notably, it doesn't seem to require Twitter to have any particular policies around extremism; only that, if they have such policies, they should be made transparent to the public.

I'm not aware of a legal case in which a private entity has successfully made the "compelled speech" argument against government paperwork; that kind of argument is more typically associated with "the IRS is unconstitutional because it compels me to file taxes"-style legal crankery.
You can see the ignorance of the people in this country from that anger. Those people celebrating were on the receiving end of American terrorism abroad.
This is all there is to it. The dogma around not testing private methods is entirely unconvincing. I have some very complex private methods that it’s just easier to write some thorough unit tests for, and it guarantees the contract my public methods rely on. I really do not see why that is controversial.
Yes everyone is stuck in mind/body duality. From
a neuroscience perspective all psychology is instantiated through the nervous and endocrine systems. So it’s reasonable to me that a habit of mind such as chronic dissociation - could have an outcome in physiology such as cfs. Like you I am patiently awaiting biomarkers or other reliable indicators.
I'd argue that the cause of that is that they've been proven right very publicly because the ability to actually cover things up has been degraded. I think that gives people the "tip of the iceberg" mentality.

import mpmath.mp as mp

Doesn't work in this case because mp isn't a submodule of mpmath. You will get "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'mpmath.mp'"

The "from" is what dives into a module and takes something out. It's not just defining a syntactic macro. You would have to do something closer to this:

import mpmath
mp = mpmath.mp
del mpmath

to replace what "from" does.
It seems like apathy and, for some, I'm sure it is, but I'd wager that for most it's just a matter of making lemonade.

Many Baby Boomers went through something similar in the 1970s when the last of the radical political movements with teeth died down. They retreated into themselves and started viewing the crumbling world around them (e.g., late 1970s NYC) as "beautiful".

That might have been the initial purpose of whiteboard challenges, but I don't think it usually works out like that.

I can't speak for the person you're replying to, but most people I see who object to whiteboard interviews are upper-level developers that haven't needed to know any of the common whiteboard challenges off the top of their head-- like coding an efficient merge sort in C with proper memory management-- because it's rarely a useful skill in day-to-day work unless you're working with that stuff directly. The people who know that stuff are usually recent grads and people who grind leetcode-- all people who've worked to memorize whiteboard type trivia rather than honing more real-world-applicable coding skills.

If Twitter solicits you to purchase Twitter Blue, that's Commercial Speech. If Twitter bans your account for praising Hitler, that's [Twitter exercising] political speech: Twitter would be protected by the First Amendment. The mere fact Twitter is a commercial, monetized service doesn't trigger a Twitter-wide First Amendment exception—any more than, say, the New York Times being a for-profit corporation opens the door for the feds to censor its political columns. Even if they're behind a paywall.

Commercial Speech is a narrow carve-out for "advertisements and solicitations". It's not applicable to Twitter moderation.
The whole idea of "hyperpalatable" foods is silly, and it's what journalists were previously calling foods "engineered" to be "addictive" a couple years ago, which was equally silly.

In terms of regular everyday food/snacks, nobody has figured out a way to make food tastier that isn't just regular cooking done by home cooks and restaurant chefs. (Leaving expensive techniques like molecular gastronomy aside.)

Adding salt, fat and/or sugar doesn't make something "hyperpalatable". It's just making food tasty the way we always have for centuries, in countries everywhere across the world. It isn't new. Grandma added tons of salt to her tomato sauce (as you have to do), donuts and croissants have been full of fat forever, and it's not like sugary desserts are anything new.

And it's certainly not like we've suddenly figured out how to jam 5x more sugar in the same candy and that this is rewiring our brains or something.

It's just straightforward food ingredients. Any talk of "hyperpalatability" is pure nonsense. It makes as much sense as saying certain artists on Spotify have developed "hypermusicality" to "push you" into listening more. It's silly.

(There are more "engineered" food ingredients like preservatives and xanthan gum and similar that grandma didn't use. But they have nothing to do with palatability or taste -- they're about shelf life and texture. There are also things like extrusion and air-puffing that snack makers can do that you can't at home, but these are also texture rather than taste.)

Which part of the First Amendment says corporations have a right not to disclose how they run their business?
Article says, "The Raspberry Pi 4 is the ultimate microprocessor." No, not really. There are many alternative SBCs available that either outperform the Raspberry or will meet specific use cases better than the general purpose Pi 4. One example, in terms of raw power, is the Orange Pi 5. Phoronix reports "Across 169 different benchmarks I ran with the Orange Pi 5, this single board computer came out to delivering 2.85x the performance of the Raspberry Pi 400 overall." No surprise, the Orange Pi's RK3588s 8-core CPU is far more powerful than the Pi's BCM2711 quad core CPU -- even on single threaded apps.

I started out with a Ras Pi 3 years ago and it was excellent as a first time starter board. The online community support and online resources are excellent. But now I use alternative boards like OrangePi or FriendlyElec as I prefer Armbian over the Raspberry Pi operating system.

"We cannot afford to give our water away frankly to anyone, let alone the Saudis, for free,"

If you can't afford to give your water away, then why does it matter who it's being given to?

I'm no fan of Saudi Arabia but the fault here is whoever decided to lease the land for $25 an acre and let them draw as much water as they want from it.

It's always blown my mind that a government official that is only in power for a few years is allowed to sign leases for decades or even hundreds of years.

The problem here isn't that a Saudi-run farm is exercising their right to run their farm how they please, the problem is that essential groundwater reserves should not have been leased to anybody, especially not long term leases for short term personal gains.
If you want to actually argue you should make an actual argument. The existence of plasmids proves my point, you've supplied no evidence for yours.
In principle they have the same constitutional rights as newspapers. Unless a double standard is being applied "because computers", which is what I am teasing out. The courts are better about upholding the First Amendment when there is ink being put on paper, because that's something which is well established and understood. As soon as computers get involved, people get this idea that old rules no longer apply "because computers".

This is why the book PGP Source Code and Internals was published; because ink on paper makes the matter clear cut.
Something similar from my side. Was in college, on the West Coast, and had no early classes so I was still asleep. It wasn't until the girlfriend's family called her and woke her up - that we found out something was wrong. They were on the East Coast and her father was flying that day (just ended up grounded and stuck for a few days). But I don't think we woke up until 8 or 9am PST, Noon East... so by the time we were awake it was "over". Totally surreal to wake up to something like that.

I don't think anyone at the entire College did anything but watch the News channels, even though there wasn't anything "new", for the next 2 days.
I find it interesting that experts in addiction then pivoted and turned that to how to exploit people’s tendencies in food addiction. And then killed millions more people through heart disease, cancer, obesity that they couldn’t reach via cigarettes.

I see parallels to social media and tech giants now also. They know how to make the rat hit the lever and get that dopamine hit to the brain. The rat’s health be damned and the free market will not fix it.
I don't think that would comply with the reporting requirements. And it sounds like their real concern is that it'd provide a way to use those reporting requirements, and the discretion as to what consitutes good faith compliance, to pressure the company into taking actions.
