Yep, and when the organisation wishes to spend its 'fucks to give' in a way that aligns with how I think they should spend their FTG, I will be willing to spend more of my FTG. Until then, we're both spending the absolute minimum FTG; I like to keep my FTG for things that replenish my FTG.

Absolutely this is where we diverge. The nature of logical fallacies is that you generally can't recognize when you're committing one. In this case one of us is, and by definition neither can know which. To resolve that, I don't rely entirely on myself, but examine the logic of many others, which I'm sure you also do. But again where we differ is that I only trust the logic of those who have proven to have very good moral character as well as high intelligence and much knowledge, such as John Henry Newman.

I am not sure I understand how stream limit configuration between two L4/L7 load balancers is meaningfully different. In my mind, either the configuration of stream limits is a vulnerability for all L4/L7 load balancers that offer that configuration or it's not for all of them.

If one doesn't _offer_ configuration of stream limits and therefore is not susceptible to user misconfiguration, then I would get the distinction. But as I understand it both HAProxy and NGINX have the same configuration options which _could_ be vulnerable if configured poorly by the user. One is just putting a lot more positive spin on it.
Personal anecdote here: my homeschooling experience, with a curriculum that accelerated learning in certain areas, and had plenty of data showing that their students outperformed public school students, did not properly prepare me for college or the “real world.” This is ignoring the religious indoctrination that was behind the whole of it. Even though my wife is a teacher, we chose not to home school our children because of my experience with it.

The "shared" components being the integer units, which are typically assembled with cores in a 1:1 ratio. So by having two cores with one integer unit you technically still don't have a hyper-threaded CPU. AMD argued in court at the time that this counted as 2 separate cores, while some lawsuits claimed that statement was false advertising.

I opted out of that lawsuit in writing stating my opinion that a judgement against AMD in this case would have a chilling consequence on future architectural developments. AMD eventually settled for $12.1m.

Really depends what your API input is, using full GPT 4 context will drive you bankrupt with ~a dollar per prompt.
well, this assumes the chat (where the ratings are given) is what people are using and paying for. I think most businesses pay for some combination of API access and specific use cases like code generation (at least, thats what I pay for) that don't really impact RLHF data. General search for consumers is likely to schism since chatGPT isn't especially different from Bard or Edge's AI assistant or the myriad of other product surface areas that can add it.

Indeed, and you shouldn't be picky when you can't afford to be. But! You should also be networking and looking for your next job on day 1 at your current job. Reputation and network gets you hired, and throwing resumes into the abyss is suboptimal. If you do not have a list of former and current colleagues you could reach out to today and be confident that they could either refer you into a role or connect you to someone who can, I highly recommend fixing that over the long term. This also enables you to consistently negotiate from a position of power (another gig is your BATNA).

This is not to say you won't get hired by applying through a website career page, LinkedIn, an ATS, whatever, but having a strong network will always win vs pipeline luck. Some people are just not good at interviewing, and some are simply not a fit for the role.

The JVM avoids both those problems though - it had a robust security model and was distributed for free.

But they would happily install web browsers because that's just a "document viewer". Even though they both do the same thing!

Oh, so you don't know. Battery voltage is an S-shaped function of state of charge. For Li-ions except LiFePO4, it's 3.7 +/-0.5V. Charging circuit takes care of that, and designers take care of current draw so as not to exceed discharge current. No, there's no "3.85V battery". No hidden 5Wh either. Yeah EVs and laptop batteries use Wh because it makes sense there. That's irrelevant(as yet).

I'm astonished how often this comes up and also how wrong it is.

The cost of the GPT-4 API is ballpark around $0.05 / 1000 tokens. If you want to include a rolling context window which you basically HAVE TO DO if you want to maintain a persistent conversation, you will easily meet or exceed 1000+ tokens.

ChatGPT Pro gives you 50 GPT-4 queries every three hours. If you're using it all day you might average about 100 daily queries. Using a dedicated GPT4 API would run you approximately five dollars a day for the same thing - that's $150 a month as opposed to flat cost of $20.

A close relative was recently diagnosed with cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy. I tried to read up on cancer research and therapies and stumbled on several youtubers interviewing Thomas Seyfried [1], a researcher who thinks cancer is caused by damage to cell mitochondria that provides energy, and not by damage to cell DNA. His theory is that cancer cells get energy by fermentation instead of oxidation (burning). Taking away suitable energy sources for this process (glucose and glutamine) would make cancer cells very vulnerable and enable treatment with much lower doses of chemicals. His advise is to attack cancer foremost by fasting and then chemicals. I think he also mentions / uses the DON chemical this article touts as a way to inhibit glutamine getting to the cancer cells.

This theory seems very persuasive to me. The more research articles I read, the more they seem to confirm this theory. This article is yet another one.

My relative undergoing therapy was given the advise by the doctor to eat as much as possible during chemo treatment, to stay strong and feed the immune system. Which is completely counter to this research. I am not a doctor, but I worry!

> Each Rodent Habitat can support up to ten mice or six rats providing sufficient room for the animals.

Given that the animals are going to be euthanized, their health and wellbeing probably isn't the biggest concern for the scientists involved -- but unless this is hooking into a much larger habitat than the pictures indicate, lol this is not even close to sufficient space for 6 rats to live in for several months. It's not sufficient space for 1 rat. Again, I'm trying to figure out if there's a larger environment and the article just isn't indicating it? So maybe I'm wrong and there's an actual environment here that just isn't pictured? But if the pictures of the habitat are the actual habitat... keeping 6 rats in a space the size of one of these containers for a month is very literally torture for the animals involved, plain and simple.

In most cases a group of 2-3 rats should have at least a full-height human-sized cage with multiple levels (and they should still regularly be given time outside of that cage in a larger environment), and ideally for 4-5 rats they should have double that space.

----

And for this research where they're basically just asking "did space do anything to their organs" I doubt the scientists care, but there is a reproducibility problem surrounding rat research that boils down to "animals act differently when they're cooped up in inhumane conditions for months at a time." The most famous of these examples off the top of my head being the "rat utopia" experiment where a scientist stuck around 40 rats into a habitat that was barely big enough for 2 rats, then gave them literally zero stimulation of any kind, and when they predictably freaked the heck out out he then tried to pass it off as some kind of novel insight into the nature of societal collapse, population limits, and an intrinsic psychological need for competition. In fact the more obvious conclusion would have been "when actively tortured, animals act weird."

It's kind of a wild experiment because if you're not familiar at all with rats it sounds insightful -- to the point where researchers actually called the environment a "rat utopia". But if you are at all familiar with rat behavior it has all of the scientific credibility of Jigsaw writing up a formal paper about what the barbed wire maze he built in his basement proves about the human condition and urban planning.

If the only thing you're doing to rats is dissecting them, then unless the stress increases disease it won't mess with results. For determining the impact of space on a rat's body, I don't know how much the rat's quality of care changes anything about the outcome. The cage being shown isn't big enough for them to exercise, but I don't know if them being able to exercise is even relevant to the test.

But for any experiments that are more extensive, how the animals are cared for can significantly change the results you get: it can affect the likelihood of disease in the rodents, it can affect what problems they're more prone to exhibiting and how quickly they recover from operations and how they react to treatments. And of course it affects behavior.

HTTP Web Server Bug Mystery with Dnalounge.com, Blocking Sonic.net IP Addresses
I am having a lot of problems trying to diagnose what the issue is. I don't work for DNALounge or know anyone that directly works there, I do love to visit their events regularly, but that has gotten more difficult over the past 6 months or so.

On my windows PC I've noticed that my external IP address can become blocked, and then I can only access the website from my Verizon Wireless IP address, either on the phone, or by hotspot connecting to my phone to access the site.

I have tried to get my Verizon Wireless IP address blocked, but it won't block it.

With my Sonic.net IP addresses, it will only block from my windows 11 PC, but not from my M1 Macbook Pro, running MacOS.

I get an IP block on my Windows 11 PC the most reliably when I click a number of DNALounge.com links in multiple tabs.

- It doesn't seem to be a cookie issue.
- It doesn't seem to be a plugin issue, although I suspect grammarly might be involved. DNALounge.com does have a robots.txt file set up to block AIs, so I don't know if grammarly is triggering some sort of firewall behavior, or something else.

I am both annoyed at this, and puzzled by it, and most of all I worry that either I have malware running on my system, unauthorized code, or that somehow sonic.net home ip addresses are getting poor score with some sort of firewall service for servers trying to prevent bot nets or DDoS attacks, and honestly i might consider switching ISPs at this point as sonic does not seem worried every time i show that it's their network affected and not Verizons.

Does this affect anyone else using Sonic.net on a Windows 11 PC connected either via ethernet or WiFi? Either Directly, or through a router?

Again, for some odd reason, my mac does not trigger this.

the only 'provisional' request header that looks different is
