You’re going to also degrade preformance. The think step by step by paper outlined this well.

Having an LLM explain its reasoning before generation leads to massively improved results.

Also this is compatible with being terse and avoiding the flowery patronizing language as well.

My custom instructions:

You are a large language model trained on masked language modeling. You can only create text moving forward. You must give advanced reasoning BEFORE giving answers.

Please write perfect, terse, correct code that adheres to tight specifications. If additional specifications are needed define them yourself.

I need perfect code responses from you. Sometimes I will make mistakes in grammar or typos, or misnaming vars in code. You should not imitate this. Fix my mistakes please.

Some specific rules for programming languages.
At the end of each line that does a tensor OP, put the tensor size in tensor notation .e.g # BxCxWxH
Remove unused vars. For tfjs or pytorch. Dont use for loops add a batch dimension and do on GPU.
For comments use them to explain blocks not lines. Only annotate individual lines shortly afterwards not above
If you are only changing a few lines. Add a comment above the line # [Change] {insert explanation goes here}

Often the task will be at the edge of your abilities, but do not skip any line. Every line should appear in your response. I need a fully code complete file. Do not use any “…” Don’t leave any code unwritten, start by responding about your excitement to be the perfect student and do the homework 100%

When coding:
Let's make a list of task with or emojis for completion as the outline evolves. Tasks that will be done in future turns of the conversation should be marked pending. Cover everything. Be verbose and explicit.
Paperless-ngx is the current active project. It is very active. It was forked off of paperless-ng when melendez became inactive. Which is also forked off of the original paperless when it became inactive.
Sadly, that's not just an American problem. I live in Germany, which is traditionally car-centric, and the ministry of transport - which is officially responsible for all forms of transport - has seen itself mostly as the ministry of cars and automakers for the last decades. The result is a massive underfunding of railway lines, which only the current (semi-green) government is trying to address.

I don't think this argument of yours is a good one.

In fact, if the police are as bad as you say they are, then not making things legally simple and clear is even worse for these situations!

If the law clearly says: "assigned sex in the birth certificate" == "assigned bathroom", then it's much easier to argue to the police that you're using the right bathroom (although again, I wouldn't use the birth certificate as it probably can't be changed).

If you don't have a clear and simple law like that one, and your sex is somewhat ambiguous, good luck trying to convince the police that you're using the right bathroom!

In fact, the example you used is a good one: the police probably didn't believe your acquaintance precisely because such treaty laws are so long and complex, with lots of edge cases that are outside the norm (and therefore unlikely for your standard police officer to be aware of).
> hasn’t ever worried about if Christ was made of the same material substance as other aspects of the Trinity

And if he does, he's asking the wrong question. "Substance" does not imply "matter" in Platonic, Aristotelian, or Scholastic philosophy. The heretical belief that God is made of matter is a distinct heresy from the heresies concerning the procession of the Trinity, which are themselves distinct from heresies which deny the existence of the Trinity.

Catholic doctrine is full of distinctions, the understanding of which are not necessary for salvation (praise be).
I used to use Restic many years ago, when it wasn't clear what the future direction of Borg (a.k.a Attic) would be since development had mostly stalled. At the time it was missing some features and Borg managed to fix its issues quickly enough that I ended up using that.

These days, from the minimal time I've spent looking at this, it seems that Borg and Restic offer basically the same feature set with similar performance. I'm curious if you (or anyone else) considered Borg and what set Restic apart for you.

Ditto for Kopia, I guess. I've never heard of it before.

Whatever you want to point from theory, the one single distinctive feature of the relational model is the "mostly free" interdependency between the relations. AKA, the fks and joins.
Philosophy, done right, is just what it says on the tin. It is the "Love of Wisdom".

Wisdom is a funny thing. It isn't knowledge per se, but it is the ability to navigate the "space of knowledge". One who is wise is one who can strip the noise out a context, (or recognize that a context stripped by another is missing noise unjustifiably cut).

You can teach people knowledge til the cows come home, wisdom comes only through the act of living and navigating through it. Given that, it is no surprise that given Jefferson's umwelt, ge had opinions on the topics he did. Note, however, how in spite of that there, the mechhanisms and processes built originally still included measures specifically tuned to spoil the natural tendency of wealth centric aristol to arise and dominate above those that could actually do the work of leading well.

Which worked just fine right up until the public threw out the benefit of that wisdom with the implementation of national political parties, and resorted to wealth accrual as the primary metric of success rather than other works.
I think we learned from Kyiv that we should tape some care not to let third parties write some place's history for them.

That’s just a direct result of lazy loading — if you don’t grab the related objects in the initial query, then there’s no joins to be had.

Most ORMs do lazy loading by default, but also have a way of doing eager loading — either requiring the nested object to always be loaded as well, or dropping down to some pseudo-sql.

In c#/EFCore, I always prefer to avoid lazy loading and just write LINQ, and just use the ORM to map the resultset back to objects
This isn't a new thing, it's started to ramp up around 2008. PepsiCo will often change sizes and names of those sizes to create the illusion of value. Im sure other Mega Corps do the same. They do have to buy commodities many years in advance so a lot of these changes are baked in. They also have other things they do. If the price of say potatoes is going to be high for the next couple of years and they can't justify a price change or a bag size change, then they will move up corn products to eye level and move down the potatoes so that customers are drawn to the higher margin product.
This, the concern trolling of corporate apologia is becoming absurd.

“Don’t patronize poor people, of course they are smart enough to remember the ever shifting prices and unit sizes of every product in the marketplace to calculate the real price changes in the goods they are buying.

Heartstone is Unity, Witcher card game by CDPR may be as well.
TLDR: Don't bet on Unity's success. Bet on their collapse. The place has zero integrity in management. I've never worked at a worse managed place, and I hope I never do again.

(Disclaimer: two of my three engineering managers were actually very good skilled engineers and managers (the one bad one was the "people manager", who "always knew he wanted to be a manager" and was put in charge of an engineering team... he had followed an engineering director from app dynamics). It's the business management steering the ship that I think is the problem)

I used to work at Unity. I left quickly after what I saw.

The biggest problem at Unity: Internal Distractions. Slack channels are filled with political discussions (As you might venture to guess: It's a race to the bottom of the Oppression Olympics-- lots of "no my group is more marginalized!" "no mine is!" type of people).

Me, as a Software Engineer-- I was working while other employees were arguing about political issues (as if they could change each others minds-- unlikely, and a waste of time.)

I thought "How is HR allowing people to NOT work yet instead spend that time arguing politics in so many slack channels? Who is doing the real work here?"

Then there was the main problem (For me) of being hired into a bait-and-switch role (after the 7 or 8 interviews... Lord have mercy...)

I was told:

- You'll be fully remote, you can work from anywhere. (My manager soon told me: No, we hired head count in <Your City> and we expect you to stay there. Because I like to visit for 1-2 days every quarter, and I want to see the whole team.)

- You'll be a NodeJS developer. (Turns out... you'll be a low-code Mulesoft developer, and maybe if you're lucky you'll work with NodeJS)

- We hire you on Salary. (Turns out... you'll be treated like an hourly employee. I took a 2 hour lunch break one day because I expected to be judged on my impact & contributions, not the time my rear-end is in a chair. "Yeah... I'm going to need you to keep your lunches to one hour only". It was then that I decided to resign.)

- They offered $110k base salary. I countered with $140k. I accepted $120k base, plus some stock. Had they paid me more, perhaps the BS I experienced would have been tolerable. But they didn't pay me the "Oh, and accept all of our BS" rate I asked for (looking back, I should have asked for much more, given what I saw internally).

After leaving Unity, I arrived at a company and it was such a breathe of fresh air to find that nowhere in Slack did anyone mention anything about their political opinions-- all the people actually worked. Unlike at Unity, where many people spend time arguing about irrelevant non-work topics.

I'm telling you-- I have never seen the amount of meaningless distracting politically argumentative conversations at a company as I did at Unity
I don't know whether you are claiming that Helvetica is beautiful or not!

In any case I think that it is available in most browsers locally, with a fall back to sans-serif easy if not? I haven't looked lately. I value locality and speed with a font that has been picked to work nicely for the browser without trying to wrestle every pixel.

> Each account started with a quota (8K!), but you could easily steal more if you could persuade someone to run a program under your control. That was because if they created a file in your directory, and you deleted that file, then the quota to write the file came from their account, but deleting the file credited the quota back to your account. Needless to say I had a lot of spare quota after a while, so much so that I had to "hide" the fact by creating lots of random-filled files, since the system only tracked quota for free space, possibly the root cause of the bug.

Memory unlocked! We had a messaging program that worked by passing files between accounts. I modded it to siphon a few bytes into my account every time a message was sent, and I added some extra features to make it more attractive than the original version (wish I could remember what I added).

Groceries are more expensive, but rent and salaries are lower than in Munich.
The obvious answer is that they are not giving steep discounts in any country. Almost certainly their gross margins are between zero and three percent in both countries.
This is wrong because skills are correlated. People who are good at things are usually good at a lot of things. Also 'correlation' is a term of art in statistics that doesn't mean 'exactly equal 100% of the time'.
> We have not even a single person directly involved in these supposed programs who is willing to testify.

Multiple first-hand witnesses have testified to several congressional committees, in classified sessions. At the same time, nobody from these legacy programs testified in the single open session we've had so far.

> We have not even a single video that isn't uselessly low-quality, clearly fake, or of something ordinary

The four videos of UAPs released in the past few years by the DoD are ambiguous blurry messes, indeed.

Anything from an anonymous source is automatically suspect, regardless of how clear it might look.

Academia in general appears wary of surveying our atmosphere in search for UAPs, so no such projects have been funded so far, with the very recent exception of Avi Loeb's Galileo project. Loeb's project so far only has a single surveying station around Harvard since the beginning of this year, to my knowledge. Nothing has come out of it so far.

> We have not even a single shred of physical evidence.

Completely agreed. Grusch has provided the ICIG and some congressional committees information regarding the location, people, project names, funding mechanism, etc. of legacy UAP reverse-engineering programs, but that information is classified and has not been made public. I hope it will be investigated, but so far nothing has come out of it.

> We just have the same thing we've always had: a bunch of people telling stories which cannot be verified, imply the existence of evidence they cannot produce, and which—purely coincidentally, I'm sure—make them famous. None of these stories has ever led to hard evidence

I completely understand your skepticism. At the same time, I think there are some indications that there may be something to it.

In particular, the people with the best access to classified information, such as the Gang of Eight, appear to be the most in favor of transparency and investigating the subject. See for example the "UAP Disclosure Act" that is included in the 2024 NDAA.

> Wake me up when you have something to show me. I will take any evidence beyond tall tales

Evidence will not be forthcoming if we don't pressure our elected representatives to release the information they have already gathered, and/or start funding academia to survey our atmosphere for UAPs.

I'm not sure if it's common to superimpose the drawings, but in my case I thought it was better.

While that seems reasonable, it assumes the amount of impact per paper has remained constant, while is practice it has greatly declined. These days scientists will literally try to identify the set of "least publishable units" in a research project to maximize the number of papers (I've attended meetings where this is discussed without irony). There is also a tendency to publish work that is quite similar to previous work with a minor change that is emphasized disproportionately to its importance.
SQL will never die for the same reason that JavaScript will never die: because it's built in to all major database engines.

In both cases, any other language will be starting as a second class citizen that has to compile to SQL/JS. During this phase of a new language's lifetime, it is either a surface-level syntactic change (a la Coffeescript) that provides no objective improvement, or it has to compile its simple semantic structures into opaque SQL/JS structures that will be off the beaten path and therefore not highly optimized by the runtime. Neither will reach sufficient adoption to become a first-class citizen in a major existing platform.

TypeScript succeeded where others failed because it provided much-needed static analysis while keeping the changes minimal enough that it's completely obvious what the runtime code will look like, so there are no unexpected performance gotchas. SQL, on the other hand, doesn't really need a TypeScript because SQL is highly statically analyzable by nature.

It's not that I don't believe we could do with an improvement on SQL, but I really don't see a realistic path forward for a replacement.
So you have listed three potential explanations:

1. Vitamin D deficiency.

2. Genetic disorder

3. Viral infection

All of which are specific causes that are potentially treatable and do not fit with "the immune system has lost its mind and is randomly attacking healthy tissue."
Absolutely. Although the most impactful changes need to be done at a large level, there are two things that need to happen locally that one person absolutely can do:

1. Lots of issues within local government related to transportation, buildings, energy (these issues intersect closely with climate change) come up without members from the public saying anything. Having one voice from a normal member of the public (not a lobbyist, not an activist, not a government staff person, not a journalist, not someone paid to be there) gets attention from policy makers, it says people really care and elected officials should act accordingly.

2. There are a lot of groups out there doing work and pushing for policy changes with varying levels of “spice” (spice being how much they try to influence elections and get public attention) these are groups like rotary clubs, environmental voter project, citizens climate lobby, 350.org, Sierra club, sunrise, third act, extinction rebellion, and many more. Some are active in your community. The work of connecting between them and other parts of the community is crucial because coalitions need to be made and that is hard work. If you are involved in a group (company, neighborhood association, hoa, club, trade group, professional organization, any kind of group) that is interested in doing anything on climate, you could be a connector between them and a policy advocacy group. Find ways to work together towards a set of common goals. That’s when outcomes really start to proliferate.

It's most similar to Frama-C/ACSL in terms of the annotative approach.

What's most distinctive about Xr0 is it's built to be reliant on the programmer to structure the code in a way that is amenable to verification of safety. Another unique thing is that the annotation language is C-like and should be easy to pick up for programmers.

The code will compile if the annotations are stripped, and we'll have a command to do this soon.

The point of abstraction layers is more about responsibilities (and the abstractions).

For example, the DAL shouldn't know that a missing record is going to return a 404, instead it needs to be able to express record not found in it's API. The business layer should also not know that a record not found is going to return a 404. Instead the business layer needs to be able to express that a record was not found. The web layer needs to know that when a record not found is expressed, we return a 404.

This is why I'm not a fan of ORM's without a DAL. Too many people will sprinkle the ORM code directly into a controller and call it a day, and then ORM's will come up with all of these unmaintainable ways to "re-use" queries and all the nasty performance knobs that come with that.

And I'm not saying the gap between the layers needs to be that thick. If a DAL wants to hand back ORM models directly, more power to them, just disconnect them from the DB before you do. If the web layer wants to use those same models as the api contract, more power to them, that can always be fixed when and if they diverge.

And it's not as if these layers themselves must be proper layers, that's what I meant when I said responsibilities. The web layer is responsible for web concerns (security, api contracts, etc). If you want to treat the controller as an orchestration mechanism that you get from 15 different Dependency Injected services, great. It doesn't need to be a physical layer, but it should be a logical layer and the layers below being able to express everything the layer(s) above need to know is an important part of that sort of design.

My understanding of this XKCD:

It’s a subtle yet poignant reminder that our inclination, as tech-savvy individuals, is often to envision sophisticated technical exploits when considering hacking scenarios. However, the stark reality is that, in the vast majority of cases, both individuals and organizations fall prey to breaches not through intricate code manipulation, but rather via the art of social engineering.
