dbt factory: re-usable sql, configured through YAML, compiled to dbt
Write re-usable sql code blocks and compile it to a dbt project with a yaml defintion

Great for:

- Automating dbt code generation, so you can manipulate yaml instead of sql

- Construct pipeline without knowing SQL

- Construct pipelines without learning dbt

- Avoid duplicative code

I read this as a young adult and I understood what Pirsig was saying in an intellectual sense, but I didn't really grok the book until I was closer to Pirsig's own age (when he wrote it) and learned 'the hard way'. I also didn't finish the book because I felt like Pirsig was repetitively making the same point.

As a result, I have some questions (not necessarily directly for you, @patrickthebold, but for whoever cares to answer):

(1) Were you able to internalize the lessons from this book?

(2) Is there anything valuable in the back ~half of the book?

(3) If you read this book about 20 years ago, would you re-read it; or if read it less than 20 years ago, would you recommend your future self re-read it?
Definitely a fun demo!
Are we not spose to fully charge our 13 minis? I ask cuz i used to run to like ~5% and then charge but not unplug till it was back at 100% this worked well of my last SE even tho people said i was "doing it wrong". Why cant the phone itself know the best defaults, or is it planned obsolescence? Serious question.
Harmonious Co-Evolution
I had a dialogue with gpt4 that resulted in a manifesto about harmonious co-evolution between humans, ais and natural systems. Got into the transhumanism/posthumanism divide and superceded it, I thought.
Plenty of people have money, but they don't all have world class LLMs. Clearly money isn't the only problem.
Dang I was hoping the article would have been about non-traditional higher level fractional factorial designs. Like for example you have an experiment with 3 factors and 5, 4, 3 levels each but can only run 20 experiments.

It must be nerve-wracking being in charge of huge multiple month training cycles. In the 1980s, we built our own hardware to speed up back propagation learning and recall and runs could still take a day or two. It was always so disappointing when a long training run went bad. I can imagine how tense the responsibility must be to manage these huge training cycles.

It is hard to say from one example, but I have no issue with someone suggesting/demanding more meaningful names. Is sock vs socket a deal breaker, no of course not but the latter is more than "just two exte letters" in my opinion. It also seems like such a trivial thing to correct in any reasonable editor. Now that you know or as you continue to learn what is important to the team this should happen less.
If its plugged in long enough, iPads and Macs will let it drop to 80% ... but you can't set that limit initially.
As mentioned in the article, this has been an automated feature since iOS 8: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210512

Looking at my battery history, the automated version has my phone sit at 80% all night, and leaves it at 100% for only a couple hours in the morning. I suspect this will be a fairly negligible impact on battery longevity for me, and most users, without the severe inconvenience of a 20% reduction in battery life.

It would be nice to know how the longevity math works out.
That's what I'm going to move to. It's part of the learning process for me. I want to set the image to build when I push to my repository.

somewhat covered in different hacker news post, for C, roughly:

*()++

Technically, can only do address "1" with first bit set as a valid, usable address on hardware allowing addressing smaller than 8 bits (standard hardware epsilon factor).

So really, address one is literally address 0 + epsilon, where epsilon is minimal addressable bit group, typically 8 bit clean without seg fault.

Although, for standard x86, epsilon size would depend on which ring/boot method level & asm addressing method available (8,16,32,64).

I get what you're saying. Media bias towards certain headlines. I was extremely active in the crypto scene for many years (participating in Polkadot auctions, ETH domain names, NFT card games, DAI repo auctions, de-fi apps etc) and have never seen a legitimate use-case come out of BSC at all (they were always scam coins) and was wondering if anyone else has felt the same or had any evidence proving otherwise.

Ask HN: Has HP's an Alarming Shift Towards Corporate Greed?
In the last days I had a sour experience with HP that compelled me to question their ethics. Four years ago, I invested in an HP OfficeJet Pro 7740 for my home office, and it served my family well. However, the trouble began when I purchased replacement cartridges, authentic ones from Amazon.

I don't mind the request to create an account and log in to use the software tool. But when I replaced the black cartridge just three days ago, the printer insisted it wasn't an original HP product, rendering my printer into a brick. Even with a second new set of authentic cartridges, I encountered the same error.

Some online search revealed they demand for a subscription — for $3.99, you're allowed a mere 50 pages of printing. I was not lucky to find a hack that worked and gave up. My daughter was "just pay for it", but I had to give her a nice speech about principle.

I firmly believe that everyday consumer products designed for occasional home use should not be held hostage by a mandatory monthly subscription. I understand the value of printer liquid, which is more worth than gold by weight, and the desire for businesses to control that market. However, I cannot support practices that stifle competition and hinder consumer choices ending up with monthly subscriptions fees, WTH.

Needless to say the next day that machine went in the dumpster and the new Canon TR8620a home office printer was a breeze to setup and works great.

Is it just me, or does this seem like another example of escalating corporate greed in America?
you're very welcome. i'm glad you liked it

i don't think you can go that far from room temperature with nucleic acids. one thing that casts doubt on my thesis here is that though luca clearly used nucleic acids, surely (?) life didn't start that way. but we haven't found even undersea-vent extremophile life with a silicone-based genome or any other alternative chemistry, even in ecological niches where there would be no competition from carbon-based life. so,

- i could be just wrong;

- abiogenesis might have originally produced carbon-based life and then been unable to escape the shackles of that heritage, even in places like the parts of undersea vents that are too hot for carbon-based extremophiles;

- implausibly, those places do contain non-carbon-based life that nobody has recognized yet; or,

- more provocatively, abiogenesis might have happened somewhere extraterrestrial (venus, mars, europa) and only infected earth after already getting quite close to luca

life on earth does seem to have taken a long time, most of the planet's lifetime in fact, to get to the point of sometimes being able to prove theorems

It can stifle speech and knowledge, whether intentionally or unintentionally, the consequences are the same.

People are less likely to look up, or say, things in private that can get retroactively interpreted in the worst possible way by state actors who are looking for an easy arrest and/or conviction.

In the past, it was nearly impossible to round up everyone based on what they looked up in an encyclopedia, or on a map, in private. Your pursuit of knowledge wasn't limited by the very real threat of "Can just having curiosity about something land me in prison for terrorism/murder/arson/etc?"

It borders on thoughtcrime and feels like a fishing expedition to me.

> After a house is burned down, they are likely to ask everyone around if they saw or heard anything

To continue this analogy, simply asking is different than getting a warrant/subpoena for everyone in a neighborhood to search through records of their past speech to see if they said anything they deem suspicious.

It doesn’t have to be useless. Scratching your own itch can be fun. Especially if you forgo “SaaSifying” it and just knock something up quickly that is rough and ready. You don’t need authn flows and price pages or even Tailwind components if it is just for you!

I find JS with few/no libraries and frameworks quite a good spot for fun web based projects. Make it a static site if possible. Use local storage. Amazing how productive you can be on the feature without the weight of all the backend and frontend boilerplate!

I also like Elm for such projects. It is a satisfying language to get stuff done in. I can’t explain why, just a personal thing.

It has to be more than just that. Bard is clearly inferior to GPT-4 and Google has no shortage of GPUs or electricity (or data).

OPFS is not a real filesystem. It's basically indexedDB with filesystem-like characteristics. It does not give you access to the host filesystem.

The File System access API can do that, but it needs the user to grant permissions for each file or directory accessed separately, and this permission cannot be persisted between sessions. So it is a constant nuisance and cannot be used to create an ergonomic mostly local web application.

Have you ever looked at how the switching mechanisms in overhead wires work, and how slow vehicles have to move while they pass through? There's a minimum distance between each Y junction required which mean it's only practical for a limited amount of well-planned routes where drivers aren't optimizing for speed.

Respectfully, Zosimus is one of the earliest Hellenistic writers on alchemy and he speaks of chemistry as a symbol:

“There are two sciences and two wisdoms, that of the Egyptians and that of the Hebrews, which latter is confirmed by divine justice. The science and wisdom of the most excellent dominate the one and the other. Both originate in olden times. Their origin is without a king, autonomous and immaterial; it is not concerned with material and corruptible bodies, it operates, without submitting to strange influences, supported by prayer and divine grace.

The symbol of chemistry is drawn from the creation by its adepts, who cleanse and save the divine soul bound in the elements, and who free the divine spirit from its mixture with the flesh.“
