To build off your rabbit hole, I've read about using the way microwaves selectively heat molecules in cooking. In particular, they can heat oil molecules in a way that increases flavor extraction without causing thermal breakdown of the flavors like uniform heating would.

I think it would be more impactful if you contribute to Linux Mint and Elementary. The former reminds me of Windows 7 and the latter is a MacOS lookalike.
The best part of using ChatGPT/AI for programming is it allows programming to be more about the fundamentals, design, and high level logic rather than needing to know an endless amount of "trivia" on all the weird non normal stuff and hacks are needed to work around most modern infrastructure/dev environments/tools. I don't have to hope that I happen to know of some weird memory issues caused by some random package or version or something, AI can catch it before I go down a Google rabbit hole trying to fix whatever random errors start popping up.
I like it—my eyes don't need to move as much to jump to the next line.

It’s just weird, because usually a social media site becomes unpopular when something better comes along. In this case, a rich weirdo took it out behind the tool shed like old Yeller. And right at the peak of its popularity when it seemed unstoppable. And seemingly he did it just for the lulz. Bizarre.

Reddit may not have experts per set, but in the right subreddits it definitely has enthusiasts. In ages gone by, you'd find the same people on message boards or forums, talking up and comparing the minute details of this or that. There's obviously the same risk of cargo culting that there's always been, but there's genuinely useful information available from people who spend way more time than the common man on their area of interest.

The Swiss reap the benefits of consistent investment in their rail infrastructure.

- Switzerland is very small, yet with massive elevation changes. Conventional trains can only handle gentle inclines (while the Swiss have lots of unconventional mountain railways, those aren't carry a significant volume of freight) compared to roads. Railroads also predate cars and trucks. Together, that means that railroads got better routes first, using very expensive tunnels out of necessity. That means shorter routes that allow higher speeds (no twisty mountain roads).

- Swiss railways rely on their impressive timeliness and efficiency to achieve very high utilization of limited resources (e.g. limited parallel tracks in tunnels and other constrained areas). That effectively means freight trains must travel at higher speeds and be much shorter than trains in the US.

- More recent investments in infrastructure have gone into longer, deeper, more direct "base" tunnels that replace earlier tunnels with more direct routes. Given the choice between auto tunnels and railroad tunnels, it is much cheaper and easier to build rail tunnels (e.g. handling electric trains require much less ventilation than diesel trucks), and the utilization can be higher (e.g. trains are centrally maintained, controlled by trained operators with good automatic safety systems, where traffic can end up depending on the worst driver on the road). Together, that means rail journeys have continued to get shorter (sometimes by hours) while the roads stay much the same.

Well it's abandoned and experimental, and there are better ways to hole punch than what I did, e.g. using STUN and TURN. But yeah it could replace one ngrok use case, though I think ngrok does not do L2/3 bridges.

Also: I think technically this was my first Go program (https://github.com/binwiederhier/re), but that was so tiny that it doesn't really count. ;-)
Why do we outsource arms development to private companies to begin with? Why introduce a profit motive into an essential government function?
But why would I, as a developer, use such a library? It would cut me out of profits unnecessarily. In fact when I’m picking my dependencies I will deliberately avoid those that take a larger slice of the pie than is worth it for me.
Discipline is another way of saying habit. If you have no motivation to workout but you have the discipline, it's because you've made it a habit. It doesn't help to make a distinction because discipline is not something that is separate from motivation.

You get motivation to do something, run on that motivation as long as you can and hope it lasted long enough to make it a habit.

It's investing in your future self while the going is good. Like, build that habit while you're motivated because it will go away and you'll be left with it as a habit.

OK, you're simply having a different argument, and I frankly don't even disagree. "Schools should let kids run stuff in Crostini" is something I think we can both get behind.

But nonetheless schools don't (and never have, FWIW), and it's not the OS's fault that they use important and desirable manageability features to do it.

Only (Open) AI Can Bring Linux to Every Desktop
As we delve deeper into 2023, the appeal of Linux has never been clearer. Yet, for many, it remains just beyond grasp—a tantalizing power tool with a steep learning curve. The solution? Marrying Linux's robustness with AI's accessibility.

Some low hanging fruits (?)-

1. Auto-Troubleshooting:
Cryptic error messages in Linux are legendary. Enter LLM, our digital troubleshooter, translating ancient tech runes into actionable solutions, saving users from the midnight maze of online forums.

2. The Command-Line Conundrum:
The command line: Linux's rite of passage. What if AI could intuitively bridge the gap, offering command prompts or even executing tasks? A terminal experience devoid of intimidation, yet brimming with capability.

3. Package Peacekeeping:
Package conflicts are the bane of seamless operations. An AI-powered system could preemptively reconcile these, turning potential software skirmishes into harmonious coexistence.

4. Contextual Digital Assist:
Beyond generic help, envisage an AI that discerns your tasks. Setting up a server? It's there, guiding, not just with steps, but also with context-driven insights.

5. Update Orchestrator:
Updates needn't be panic-inducing events. AI can seamlessly integrate patches, ensuring compatibility, essentially choreographing a ballet of binaries in the background.

Linux's depth isn’t lost in this vision, but the entry barriers are lowered. It's about extending the Linux invite more broadly. By making it accessible, we’re not diluting its essence but amplifying its reach.

The fusion of AI and Linux beckons more compelling than ever, poised to usher in an era where Linux’s power is matched only by its newfound accessibility.

What else could make Desktop Linux actually relevant? Microsoft is already making moves in this space. Distro projects should probably think about it too.
Now I'm imagining a collaboration among radio-astronomers to microwave their lunches at the same time around the globe. Who would set up the prank: grad students making a secret pact at a conference to prank their professors, or vice verse?
Blast from the past. This game felt so out of bounds back in the early/mid 90s, like watching The Simpsons.
They already got a taste of this with the logistics backend for the F35[1], but NGAD explicitly said, "we're not doing that shit again", so LM is angling for another way to get those systems locked in. It's gonna be a grappling content for sure, but as long as the DoD doesn't want to pay for things like frickin prototypes then LM's gonna keep angling for ways to make cash on the support end.

[1] Which was a mess. I mean, even in an industry notorious for messes, it stood out, by a lot. I can think of one other program I've seen that gave the 35 LSA/MTA/ILS/ERP/DOA/InsertYourFavoriteMeaninglessAcronym a run for its money.

The nominal cost per page on those edge out many home office laser printers, but the printers themselves don’t last very long which then bumps up the cost per page.

It’s like the razor blade model of inkjets use high ink costs and the unsubsidized bulk ink versions use planned obsolescence. Though it could just be the basic mechanics of inkjets as moving around the ink + print heads involves significant mechanical stress per page and EcoTank style inkjets prints lots of pages.
ABSOLUTELY.

discord is bad for a host of reasons, but this one is near the top. An organized group should at least be allowed to defend their actions, and when Big Dog Co is the owner of your communications medium this just simply can't be the case.

One can argue that the entire internet is sort of structured this way, but in practice it's rare to need to go talk to a top level domain registrar about cutting service.
I typically use search engines not to answer questions but to search for things, like for example, maybe I want to find an old Qt Quarterly because something on HN made me think about it, or I'm looking for really deep MSDN documents about Text Services Framework to research something about how IME works on Windows. My biggest issue with Kagi is that whatever indices it seems to pull from seem less deep than both Bing and Google. Now, I could be wrong and maybe it's actually bigger or it uses one of them for some of its results, but my experience was that I was able to get results on DDG when Kagi couldn't return any for a given query.

Generally, I find that Google is a bigger index with a better ranking algorithm on top of it. However, DDG/Bing do generally seem to have an impressive index, and one of the biggest differentiators for most search engines that are not Google is that most search engines that are not Google will generally allow you to search for what you want to search for. I feel like with Google, it's very difficult to force it to always include all of the exact terms I'm specifying; it wants to search for something else. Sometimes I'm not even sure it's able to differentiate between two similar looking terms!

With all of this said, Kagi definitely was nice in terms of the fact that it felt like it was doing a good job of searching for what I asked for and an alright job ranking them. I gave it my best shot. But, alas, I never got to the point where I felt comfortable not searching Google afterwards. Even as much as Google pisses me off, it feels like their index is just far and away the largest, and it's not even really close.
As opposed to today where half my search results are the result of who has the larger SEO budget?

Two things can be true at the same time: "Reddit is prone to karma-driven bullshittery" and "Reddit content is generally significantly higher-quality than SEO content farms".

With Reddit you might get inane arguments and bandwagoning about what the best game strategy is, but you're exceedingly unlikely to read about a game mechanic that was straight-up hallucinated by a LLM.
You could however test different schemes like this prior to announcing the scheme.

> QUIC is TLS-equivalent, not TCP-equivalent.

From Wikipedia[1]:

"QUIC improves performance of connection-oriented web applications that are currently using TCP.[QUIC] is designed to obsolete TCP at the transport layer for many applications, thus earning the protocol the occasional nickname "TCP/2"."

Also taken from the wiki page:

"QUIC aims to be nearly equivalent to a TCP connection but with much-reduced latency."

Here is the only relevant bit regarding TLS:

"As most HTTP connections will demand TLS, QUIC makes the exchange of setup keys and supported protocols part of the initial handshake process. When a client opens a connection, the response packet includes the data needed for future packets to use encryption. This eliminates the need to set up the TCP connection and then negotiate the security protocol via additional packets."

Entry level Thinkpads are not particularly impressive.

I have an E585 (bought it with the 2700U and 1080p screen upgrades, but added my own SSD and extra RAM because Lenovo charged the moon) and it replaced an X230 Tablet.

Even though it's the "upgraded" screen, it's still dim and disappointing. I understand very few Thinkpads have excellent screens; while the X230T's was brighter, it managed to burn the browser chrome after a few years of using it for lap-surfing.

The X230 had a slide-off-the-back-side battery. The E585's is inside the case.
You could slide open little hatches to access the storage and memory on the X230. The E585 was a single-piece cover with 8 or 9 captive screws and then has to be pried apart with snaps.

The E585 has a rubber foot to prop it to provide clearance for the vents; the tape holding it on gave out a couple months ago, so I've stuck little white adhesive rubber furniture feet on it.

As are a LOT of DOS games in convenient DOS BOX for your playing pleasure.

There are several of these sites to play DOS games on, and I suspect some are just cribbing archive.org since most have the exact same library with exact same issues in their copies.

This is false. You’d never get the answer with that strategy, since some of the machines will never halt, but you wouldn’t know if the ones you have left are going to halt or not.

Te winning strategy is to A) prove all the machines that don’t halt and B) find the largest runtime of machines that do halt.

That’s why BB(745) is important because we can’t use ZFC to prove A for BB(745), even if we could run all the halting machines to find BB(745).

> the printers themselves don’t last very long

A high quality citation is seriously needed for a claim like that.

That’s not a complaint I’ve ever heard about the EcoTank printers, and googling it didn’t turn up anything. I strongly doubt this is a characteristic of EcoTank printers. That unsourced claim sounds suspiciously convenient for your side of the discussion.

Epson also makes a dedicated line of business EcoTank printers ("EcoTank Pro") which are clearly intended to print very large numbers of pages. But again, even the very basic ones seem to do a great job, with very high reviews across the board when I look at retailers.

I'm not sure I follow how you get from me not being impressed by the LLMs I've interacted with (you may be incapable of empathizing with that perspective, but that doesn't make me less unimpressed at them) to some hypothetical people thinking the first iPhone was just another phone, and therefore not having an ounce of intelligence.

I'm not worried about the world passing me by, I think LLMs and similar technology will increase, not decrease, the need for people who can troubleshoot and fix live production software. I mean I do have my passive income if I'm forced into early retirement, but I'm not fearing that to happen soon.

Mind you, I did say I'd love to be in awe at an AI breakthrough; I'm not a luddite. I just don't see anything in LLMs to impress me, and on the other side, I do see a lot of hype behind it.
