(1972), reprinted as Chapter 11 of Selected Papers on Computer Science (https://cs.stanford.edu/~knuth/cs.html) [Changes are usually minor but in this case there's an erratum published in 1976, https://doi.org/10.1145/800127.804066 p 108.]

Fun fact: to write this paper, Knuth actually learned ancient Akkadian and Sumerian (at least enough to look up dictionaries):

> Most of the Babylonian mathematical tablets have never been translated into English. The translations above have been made by comparing the German of [3, 4, 5] with the French [8]; but these two versions actually differ in many details, so the Akkadian and Sumerian vocabularies published in [4, 8, 6] have been consulted in an attempt to give an accurate rendition.
Always wondered if the likes of DMT or trace amounts of it contribute to these experiences similar to how adrenaline is produced during fight/flight response.

Could it be possible that the brain sensing no more blood is being supplied then triggers a mechanism to release this chemical (and in what quantities)? Wildly speculating as a layman, however, maybe there is a link between dream states / DMT production/synthesis and these experiences which are yet to be explored further.
It is more accurate to say that the ActivityPub plugin[1] which was acquired by Automattic has hit 1.0 and is available to be used on WordPress.com. Yes, Mastodon implements (most of) ActivityPub but it's hardly the only platform on the web that does.

As long as you can afford basic care for a pet, then you can have a pet.

food, water, bedding, the ability to keep it safe, vaccines(they're pretty cheap mostly and often done by animal shelters for free--neutering too).

There are so many pets in shelters who could live good happy lives but no one is there to adopt them.

Better a pet to live with an owner who cant afford their chemo when theyre 14 years old than to be euthanized at 2 years old.
It was my first time losing anyone/anything close to me as well.

I was acutely distressed for a good month and basically non functional for a week or so, which is embarrassing to admit, but this cat was with me through some really dark times when no people were there for me. I was holding her body and just wailing when we got home - I was a 30 something year old woman and I needed my mom to come over to manage what to actually do. There is no shame in the pain - it means you love your kitty.

I think you're still a bit confused. 81.8% refers to, out of the population which _both_ failed in their first suicide attempt, _and also_ eventually (within the study observation window, i.e. 3-25 years) dies of suicide, the proportion who die within year 1 rather than years 2-25. In fact, the study authors point out that they found follow-up attempts _less_ likely to succeed compared to the initial attempt:

> Of the cohort, 3.2% (48/1,490) died on index attempt, whereas only 2.3% (33/1,442) of index attempt survivors went on to kill themselves. This drop in the suicide rate for survivors compared with those dead on index attempt held true for both men and women (males: from 6.7% to 4.8%; women: from 1.2% to 0.9%).
Just moved our infra from GCP to AWS. Kubernetes clusters, LB, storage, lambdas, KMS and all of it.

Google runs their tech stack as if it's a startup that builds their CV. Everything is immature, tons of hacks, undocumented features. If you are on their k8s there are tons of upcoming new versions and features that force you to revisit key hacks you put in your infra because of their misgivings. Our infra team keeps tinkering around our infra and it never ends. It's 50:50. 50% of time making sure we are prepared for their shit and 50 % our ambitious infra plans. Good luck with that.

With AWS our bill is 60% of what GCP used to be running 3 k8s clusters.

AWS support is so nice, you can't believe it.

Nah, I don't trust Google with anything. It's a scam. Google's support is horrendous. They refer you to idiots that drag you through calls until your will for life dies. And you're back to the mercy of some lost engineer that may comment on a github issue you opened 20 days ago. We have a bug reported back in 2020 that got closed recently without any action because it became stale and the API changed so much it doesn't really matter. It's that bad.

Your argument is kinda like saying, "this 1 ton pickup uses too much gas."

Somewhat? The build quality of a Tesla, even a Model S, resembles that of a Corolla at best. The dash creaks, there's unexplained rattles, the wind howls if things aren't sealed properly, and if you try to address anything with a Service Center you often get told 1) they can't find it, or 2) they found it, but it's "within spec".

This is more like the way we used to elect Senators in the US. The state legislatures used to select Senators until we amended the Constitution to require direct election by the people.

Been using DynamoDB for years and haven’t had to do any of the hacks you talk about doing. Not using ruby though. TCP keep-alive does help with perf though (which I think you might be suggesting.)

I don’t have p99 times in front of me right this second but it’s definitely lower than 20ms for reads and likely lower for writes. (EC2 in VPC).
I think you are using the wrong statistics to make your point. The key point here is the there is a suicide difference between males and females. And vets are overwhelmingly male (90%).

Women attempt suicide a lot more and those statistics you used are skewing your conclusion. Men (vets or not) use guns and are more successful.
This is true. If you're an experienced cat owner in good financial health, indoor cats are generally not worth insuring.

For dogs, it ranges wildly from "not worth it at all" to "mandatory" depending on the breed, and which breeds you should purchase insurance for is pretty trivial to find information for online. In general, bulldogs and large dogs are generally worth getting insurance for, as long as you get it when they're still puppies.
I think once you're trying to explain that nuance, most of the audience (that NASCAR would like to tune in) has probably already tuned out. It is very welcome for them to start pivoting heavily towards road courses, dirt courses, and even street races (not to mention wet weather tires), as it opens up the field to WAY more driver skill sets and strategy than just tire falloff, fuel, and gaming restarts.
> At Amazon, practically every service is built on top of AWS - a proper vote of confidence!

Not only this, but practically most, if not all, of the AWS services use DynamoDB, including use cases that are usually not for databases, such as multi-tenant job queues (just search "Database as a Queue" to get the sentiment). In fact, it is really really hard to use any relational DB in AWS. I mean, a team would have to go through a CEO approval to get exceptions, which says a lot about the robustness of DDB.

This is irrelevant. What if you rename the directory where you worked with files that need backups? Even worse, what if you switched two directories. Or deleted and created afresh... There are plenty of cases where renaming of backups will be very confusing / will do something you didn't intend and for zero gain.

Besides the many fine reasons shared at the same level :-) there is a world of capability to be opened up at our service. Technology is useful (I mean, aside from $NAMEYOURPETPEEVE). I don't think we need to surrender to the worst possible AGIs but most of us can certainly use better help from our tools. That has always been the case. So by all means, let's think about what we are doing but let's not just kill the whole project.

Look up Chinese cancer villages, this is the real scary pollution. Thankfully we have the EPA in America (and unions, and many other things) that have defended the US population from mass poisonings.

This is evidence that our laws and regulations are working well here in the US.

If people are hiring 1099's or agencies to do maintenance I think they are doing it wrong.

There's a certain kind of bullshit with greenfield projects that comes out of the fact that the demonstrated value of the system is zero, that is, is hypothetical that any value is going to come out of the project at all.

If a system is worth maintaining, it is obviously producing value. So different dynamics come into play, particularly there is something particularly thankless about maintenance work. You will always run into people who say "it took you two months to do that? I could do it over the weekend" who have no idea how many responsibilities the system has, how many stakeholders are affected by a change, etc.

Uh let's not get carried away. It's fine with enough work maybe. But Postgres has a lot of awkwardness too. HA is a pain, major version upgrades are a pain, JS or JVM stored procs are a pain, configuring auth is a pain. There is a reason so many people are desperate to pay someone else to run Postgres for them instead of just renting a few VMs and doing it themselves.

This reminds me of the fond days of having weekly customers calls. We develop AWS services, and we answer our customer-support calls directly. No middle man. Just techies to techies. And we made promises to customers on the fly, and customers sometimes project managed us.
From the article:

Indeed, it just sounds to be a different choice of the curve, perhaps more suited for the HDR capabilities available today.

PS: I did not read the article in detail. My first reaction was to just search there for 'gamma' in the article to see how 'log' is being compared to it.

"Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants." - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Defense_of_Food

Might be simplifying things too much in general, but for the layperson it's not horrible advice - just a bit of everything, without going into excess. Some grains, veggies, fruits and berries, probably some dairy products, eggs/fish/meat occasionally too, at least for the folks for whom a vegetarian/vegan lifestyle would be be difficult.

Personally, I have both lactose free milk and plant based alternatives sometimes (there's a rice drink that I like, but oat/almond varieties are okay), some cheese (also the cottage variety) and meat sometimes, though mostly chicken instead of something like beef. In equal measure if not more, I also choose plant based alternatives too, like bean/pea/spinach burger patties, or just dishes without meat sometimes. A bit of fat, a bit of sugar, albeit limiting sugary drinks and processed foods somewhat.

Bloodwork seems fine so far, also losing a little bit of weight gradually to improve BMI, maybe should slightly lower cholesterol because it's towards the upper end of a healthy reference interval. Although I will say that sometimes there's definitely a pronounced sense of hunger, even though I've had enough food, which is annoying.
Your camera (including film cameras) never could take a fully accurate picture to represent what you see. Digital sensors and film don't perceive what our eyes do. It's always been up to you the photographer to ensure that. If you choose to shoot on auto, that's your choice to let the camera guess at the accuracy. Most people don't like what is actual reality so they under, over, long and short expose to choose what reality they represent. They light things artificially and they put make up on. The might even create stage scenes. Even in pure film days, humans have been altering the output. Whether it be for realism or artistic purposes, dodging/burning were effectively retouching practices in film.

Yes smart phone cameras are using computation to get a more "correct" output, unless it's being marked as a feature to alter the image such as face smoothing. Camera makers are always trying to make their camera sensors (or film makers) better perceive the range our human eyes can or at least give use the choice through data to make the decision on realism or art.

Your bit about the police officer is 100% irrelevant to your main point.
My wife and I and our two kids do a fair amount of back-country white water rafting. After arriving at a very remote take-out with no car and no cell service after a five day float (and running low on food and water), we went ahead and bought an actual satellite phone. It’s a game changer. Cost about $400 used and we have it refreshing quarterly on BlueCosmo for $99. It’s awesome, and cheap insurance relative to the risk.
of course it does.

Controlling expansion is key in most cities.
The city planning office must approve construction.
(or some part of the government has to approve it)

With that it would be natural for the party wishing to construct to
detail how they will ensure the water they need.

Many cities are restrictive as to how much construction they will allow.

There are already recently constructed houses in near PHeonix that presently
does not have water.
They have been cut off by the city.

This is due to a disagreement on taxes, city zones and a few other things.
That community must now pay to have tank trucks come by, and a tank truck
can haul a lot of water, but when you must supply it to a whole community
a tankers worth does not last that long.

Yeah, the "proper" way to do Lambdas, shown in so many fancy architecture diagrams, is a rat's nest. I don't like APIs on Lambda unless you can shove them into one container with a catchall proxy on API Gateway. They really shine if you're processing SQS messages or EventBridge events. If you aren't using other AWS services and aren't cost engineering, then Lambdas probably aren't worth the headache.
Man, this thread is a mess

There are a lot of people on this very site making 500k+ pre-tax. You're going to be taking home 300ish after taxes in that case, and it's not entirely unreasonable to "only" have 150ish for savings/investments/disposable income after your housing and living costs are taken out of that

If someone has $12k+ to spend per month and won't spend $10k to save their pet's life, they're an asshole IMO

I experienced the “life flashing before my eyes” once. It was a situation where I thought I was about to die. It was like a very high speed real of all my memories playing. I was amazed (while it was happening) that it was happening just like I’d heard about - so at least in my opinion it wasn’t an invented memory later. Of course I might say that even it was. My theory is the mind was desperately trying to find a similar situation as a hint of how to get out of the current situation, but it’s just a guess. I lived :)

> Doesn’t hit one as hard as people who didn’t have that experience.

Can't say I agree with that statement--it still hurts hard when animals you've raised for a very long time die. However, I pretty much concur with the rest.

Animals are not small people--they are animals.

If they are a young animal with good recovery and lots of lifespan ahead, sure, I'll spend money. Broken bones. Natch. Swallowed something stupid. No problem. Got in a fight and need to be put back together? Sure.

Once you start talking more advanced things like cancer. It becomes a "maybe". How many good years will that animal have after the treatment?

And I'm sorry, but I'm not going to spend a lot of money at the end of an animal's natural lifespan. It's only going to make a very marginal improvement in the amount of time you're going to get. And, the animal is likely to be miserable, to boot. Better to spend the last 3 months letting your dog do what it enjoys rather than to have it last 9 months of misery.

We are mortal. Pets are mortal. C'est la vie.
I feel like I'm missing something with the purpose of the recall accuracy study.

> Third, the study enabled an unprecedented objective test of survivors’ recall accuracy. Many have wondered: Have those who recall death experiences—even of happenings during the resuscitation—experienced hallucinations, such as commonly reported with oxygen deprivation or psychedelic drugs? Or are their out-of-body reports of cardiac arrest events factual and verifiable?

How does the ability to recall and report an apple, pear or banana confirm/deny whether the persons have experienced a hallucinogenic event or not?
