Title: Herculaneum scrolls: A 20-year journey to read the unreadable

it goes a little bit into the technology of how this was done, deep learning finally cracked the code. They had the scans for a decade but it took ML training to be able to identify which parts were paper and which parts were the ink on top. This had been done on a different set of scrolls with easier to read higher contrasting materials like the video says, 20 years ago. Deep learning is cracking the code for these datasets we had previously thought were impossible to algorithmically solve.
By having it open to the air you get a lot more of the aroma of the drink which is a bit part of how we experience taste. Mostly it's just a neat trick to demonstrate zero-/micro-G fluid handling and dynamics packed into a relatable form.

Principals like this are used in fuel/liquid handling in space already to make sure your tanks aren't pure chaos and your pumps don't run dry. A lot of rockets just do ullage burns with different motors to settle their fuel into the bottom of tanks but that's not possible for all fluids if you need to have them moving continuously or can't do burns just to settle them.
> then wouldn't need voltages to be fixed in the comparison.
> How long is it going to run my 5W load? 10 hours?

Voltages are fixed. Fixed, passive. Amperage is designer's discretion. You can't make a computer run at 7V because you want to. The computer draws 12V/1A, and you have bunch of 3.7V/2600mAh cells around, so you join 4 in series to get 14.4V, shave off 2.4V through LDO, and get 2.6h runtime(is that 2.4W excess heat there? ew).

Wh? Not handy at all. I don't control what many Watts my device draws. I know the CPU runs at precise 3.3V +/- 200mV and draws up to 20mA at full speed. Not "50 mW at up to 3.3V", no. I know my phone charges at up to 5V/2A or 10W, so what. An airline approved XL sized battery should roughly run the phone for 10 hours give or take few with just the battery and that's accurate as it gets from advertised data.

> Is that mAh rated at the 5V for USB?

It's practically ALWAYS rated at 3.7V because every "Chinese" brands - not always from there or with associated ethnicity - wants figures to be based on maximum indisputable advertisable numbers. That had already eliminated ambiguities years ago. I've seen batteries rated for a mAh capacity on 3.6V advertised nominal voltages as well as those in 5V, those don't exist anymore.

All in all, battery capacity in Wh, not so practical. Maybe it could make some sense for consumer variable voltage power supplies. Definitely not for cells.

Well many people know it for ages. I was thought it in school (as in … when I was like 15 doing Standard Grade Biology). But somehow it is still surprisingly commonly used as a general way to categorise people into groups for various purposes.
Other things that are information: romance novels, interior design layouts, daily of routines of possibly cheating husbands. Are you going to contend that authors and decorators and private detectives are also information workers? I'd respect the commitment to consistency if so, but it seems to stretch the definition past the point of usefulness.

Another area where there's potential for an individual to make lots of progress is in theory and mechanistic interpretation. Although it's not where the money is, it's probably not rapid progress and it's really hard.

I don't think "capacity" neccesarily has a concrete unit connected to it. I am pretty sure you could call both the charge and the energy in a battery its capacity.
Research shows why hunting for the cheapest plane ticket is a waste of your time
Ignoring it completely is a viable strategy. A lot of 12 factor sounds like common sense to people who regularly ship stuff. For example, if I fail to put the config in the environment, the risk that introduces will be immediately obvious in the PR and someone would be able to raise that concern, with real justification, not because it's declared in a 12 factor manifesto.
Given a “50 mph average” for road trips (with stops, eating, etc) this thing can apparently do about eight hours on the road, or a decent 10 hour day counting stops, more if you can get a bit of charge at the longer stops.

If you can charge at the hotel you can probably pretty reliably roadtrip in this.
Having used Boox devices in the past (but not yet the Palma) I have a few thoughts on this one:

1. The phone form factor actually kinda makes sense to me because so few Android apps and websites are tablet optimized.

2. The lack of a fingerprint reader is a deal-breaker for me. I tried the Tab Mini C and found entering a passcode all the time to be too annoying. They put a fingerprint reader on the Tab Ultra and I don't understand why that hasn't been a priority on other devices.

3. Although I prefer the look of non-color eInk screens compared to the current generation color ones, they are worse at displaying apps & websites that aren't optimized for eInk (i.e, that aren't black text on a white background), which is most of them. As soon as you start adding color backgrounds, things can turn into an undifferentiable sea of black pretty quick, which makes a color display much better for this type of device.

I won't be buying one of these but I like that they are experimenting with different form factors and features.

Also seems to not mention that the biggest inaccuracy of BMI is that it tends to underestimate the rate of obesity (bodybuilders with the opposite problem are a rounding error in population-level statistics, many more people have very low muscle).
Isn't there a Mac app which can record your programming presentation or demo video and turn into slides using AI? That feature could be next step for Loom acquisition.
Even regardless of that, we have hand calculators now so raising height to the 2.6th power instead of squaring it isn't too hard a piece of math to ask a doctor or military recruiter to be doing on their own.

Sadly these days it seems that having good taste and not having embarked on the enshittification train itself is a pretty great moat.
> but it just makes no sense to me that as a society we have said "yeah, color our food so it looks more appealing, even though chemically it's probably not great for us". Just sort of odd, honestly.

How is this meaningfully different from adding salts and sugars to make food taste more appealing?

While there are a relative few who would be happy with a bland looking, bland tasting shake for 3 meals a day, most people wouldn't. Biologically, it's _normal_ for people to want food to look and taste appealing.
Yes, currently the S62 Pro. What would you be interested in knowing?

To be honest I first thought it would be a gimmick, but being able to see heat / rough temperature degrees has proven itself quite useful.

But you don't really realize it until you have it available. It's kind of like having another sense available to you.

Random examples of where it was useful:

- finding shitty chargers/electronics which were really hot while doing nothing -> wasted power

- spotting a water leak before it was visible (think cold spot in the middle of the ceiling)

- checking car tire alignment (one side hotter than the other)

- finding buried hot water pipes

- finding where cold air is leaking in during winter

- spotting damp areas

and probably others that I'm forgetting right now
BMI is the least worst. Tons of methods have been tried and they are all worse. We need cheap, fast and easy. Thats what BMI is. To get more accurate you need specialized equipment and or some math knowledge. Better = costs more. Thats why we have BMI and why people complain endlessly about it.

Reminds me of the software hiring market during the dotcom boom.

I think the hype on the field and the shitty candidate pool go hand in hand. The shitty candidate pool will groupthink / cargo cult the space without much critical thinking. The groupthink / hype will cause people to jump into the field who don't have any business being in the field.

Is not this common knowledge? It works for population measures and mostly everyone not exercising at a very high level. In other words, 9x% percent of the population can not excuse their BMI by "muscle mass", it is simply due to a sedentary lifestyle and the BMI is a correct estimate.

Stripe closed my account because of inactivity
I got the following email from Stripe. They closed my account without giving any notification. On reaching out to the Support team, they told me that they can't reactivate the account and I will have to create a new account (bummer!). I can understand that Stripe has the right to close the inactive accounts, but atleast a warning would have been helpful.

"We’re writing to let you know that your Stripe account is being closed with immediate effect due to inactivity for over 6 months.

While we won’t be able to reactivate your existing account, you’re welcome to apply for a new account at any time.

Heard many have success with Ayahuasca and other very high potency psychedelics.
That's doable in LSP - the server knows about the selection, not just the cursor position. E.g. if I use rust-analyzer (in Helix, so there aren't any protocol extension in play), select an expression and request hover info, rust-analyzer shows the expression's type.
On the other hand, without platform support there are not a lot of easy alternatives. It at least encourages separation of config and code, keeping secrets out of vcs.

Interesting if not surprising to see the criticisms here. We use loom extensively at work and as a remote employee it’s one of my favorite collaboration tools. Sending a video explaining a problem while I walk through code is often much easier than getting on a zoom call, and Loom is absolutely easier and more feature-filled than other forms of screen capture.

I say this as a manager (of ics and managers) - this would be amazing. Especially if it also meant taking away the admin aspects, the project management (which was fine but still), the politicking, the perf/promo committee mud slinging, the "sell upper management bs as your own" bs, the hiring and having to explain why you aren't able to hire the Jeff deans of the world for peanuts, selling "leadership rubriks", explaining how layoffs are good for the laid off, etc!!

In the last 5 years or so the role of manager had gone from those with accountability "with" resources/authority to just accountability and no support or resources. Pretty shit deal unless you were a true sociopath leaving the well intentioned ones stranded.
My oldest child has a neurological response to artificial colors but we don't know exactly which and haven't tried a challenge test. This is not uncommon and has been known for quite some time, which is why the EU has banned many of these coloring additives for years. One of the reasons we often shop at Whole Foods for prepared foods & baked goods is that they don't allow any artificial colors or flavors in products they sell. It's useful for peace of mind.

Beet juice, annatto, spirulina, carrot juice / beta carotene, and many other options abound. What infuriates me is when I see something white (like vanilla pudding) that contains blue #5... for no good reason.
> It's how to take a vector of utilities, and turn it into a single utility.

I mean, that's a problem that lost of people skip to in utilitarianism, but the bigger problem is that utility isn't really measurable in a way that produces a meaningful "vector of utilities" in the first place.
"The weirdest trend was all of the people who had done large AI projects on things that didn’t need AI at all. We had people bragging about spending a year or more trying to get an AI model to do simple tasks that were easily solved deterministically with simple math, for example. There was a lot of AI-ification for the sake of using AI."

I've seen two variants of this

1) People that have worked for traditional (as in non-tech) companies, where there's been a huge push for digitalization and "AI". These things come from the very top, and you don't really have much say. I've been there myself.

The upper echelon wants "AI" so that they can tick off boxes to the board of directors. With these folks, its all about managing expectations - but frankly, they don't care if you implement a simple regression model, or spend a fortune on overkill models. The most important part is that you've brought "AI" to the company.

2) The people that want to pad their resumes. There's no need, no push, but no-one is stopping you. You can add "designed and implemented AI products to the business operation blablabla" to your CV.

These days, I've seen and experienced 1) an awful lot. It's all about keeping up with the joneses.

and i think a city of a million would be impressive, i've lived in cities of 100k, 200k, ~6m, 30k, and 350k. even at a million, that's still only ~0.003% of the US population.

while the example makes for a nice way of measuring wealth-to-power, so kudos on that, realistically it makes for a bad investment. you'd get a lot in rent but you'd get crushed in repair fees, insurance, and property tax. plus if someone else really wants to buy that property (or they dislike whoever bought it), its probably cheaper for them to sponsor state-level politicians to raise property tax in some obscure way on only people who own 100+ properties. forcing you to dump everything at once, thereby decreasing prices in the area.
What's hard about AI that requires special expertise? In many ways it is much simpler than regular software engineering because the conceptual landscape in AI is much simpler. Every AI framework offers the same conceptual primitives and even deployment targets whereas most web frameworks have entirely different conceptions of something as simple as MVC so knowing one framework isn't very useful for learning and understanding another one but if you know how to use PyTorch then you can very easily transfer that knowledge to another framework like Tensorflow or Jax.

It should be possible for a competent software engineer to get up to speed in AI in less than 6 months and much of that time can be on the job itself.
I don't know if those exist. I imagine if you are a linemans or working in the oil field you might have a rugged phone/radio or leave it in the truck cab.
The new code search stuff is very good, yes.

"Enshitification" is rapidly becoming a meaningless term of disapproval, but it had a precise definition when Doctorow coined it:

> This is enshittification: surpluses are first directed to users; then, once they're locked in, surpluses go to suppliers; then once they're locked in, the surplus is handed to shareholders and the platform becomes a useless pile of shit.

GitHub directed a huge surplus to developers compared to what came before it. Microsoft bought it and worked on furthering the lock in with Actions, and now the ship is slowly moving towards wringing the extra value out of us. It's not at the bottom of the hill yet, but it's definitely on the slope. They already have ads for themselves on it. The ads are just going to slowly creep outwards as necessary to produce a smooth revenue curve.
