What if you met your future self?
To a layman, they're all useless, and in a dangerous way: they transport a sense of understanding a person/character/psyche that they don't support.

A professional can gain _some_ information from all of them. Just that the Big 5 have much more literature behind them than MBTI, so there's more reference data for any given constellation. That's a reinforcement loop. Methodical differences and reliability and all that fluff can be used to argue in more detail in favor of one versus the other, but by now, it comes down to what folks are more familiar with.

In the end, these are just a few out of many, many tools of the field. If you see somebody build their career on "(MBTI|Big 5|...) analysis" and nothing else, they're not a professional but a quack.
What are you favorite features that are exclusive to them?
Problem is you edit Python code inside the cells, there is no IDE for it (from what I've seen, haven't tried it yet)
One of my high school teachers had a quote she was fond of repeating:

"Education requires three things: a teacher, a student, and a stump. Unwilling to change the first, unable to change the second, educators spend all their money on the third."
>Is low 80s upper east side a good neighborhood?

Yes. That's basically east of Central Park at the southern end of museum mile. So, generally, a very good (if somewhat sleepy) neighborhood.
I was on Adderall for ~6-7 years. The following is just my personal experience but it seems to match well with the vast majority of anecdotal experiences I have read about in many many years of being immersed in this stuff... although these won't be true for 100% of people.

Almost everyone I know ends up on a significantly
higher dose than they started with.

One: At least in the US, for whatever reason, doctors tend to initially prescribe you a very low dose. I think this is a big part of why everybody ups the dosage.

Two: Many/most people seem to avoid dosage creep by reducing or limiting their dose on weekends or on other days when it is feasible. If you take e.g. 20mg every day, 365 days a year, it's pretty much guaranteed to lose effectiveness. But if you can take that down to ~5-10mg on weekends that helps. Also weaning yourself off of it entirely from time to time seems to provide a reset. Doctors seem to never tell anybody this.

And the stories of feeling like a zombie when off
meds are very real and pretty freaky.

Well, let's call it what it is... it's withdrawal. However to put it in perspective, most people find it milder than or similar to caffeine withdrawal.

If you do significant amounts of stimulants every day and then go cold turkey you're gonna have a real bad time for a day or three.

On the other hand if you steadily taper your dosage down to 0mg over ~3-7 days it's not bad at all.

Again, doctors seem to never tell anybody this.

BTW, while I am kind of "rebutting" your points I am not pushing Adderall. There are downsides to it. It made me more high-strung and prone to arguments and stress. The frequent shortages are a nightmare. And so on. I eventually moved on.
As a former Reddit mod I always found the self-promotion rules problematic. It effectively means you can promote your stuff all you want as long as you pretend you're someone else. It would be better to encourage people to stand behind their stuff. I tried not to remove self-promotion as long as it wasn't spammy (and there's a fine line there).
Unix time isn't a fixed offset from TAI: it stops the clock during leap seconds (the timestamp for a leap second is the same as for the next second), so the offset from TAI changes at every leap second.
Are you actually trying to make the case that high interest rates are good for poor folks?
Yeah, this is more like living in a studio apartment and less like living in a hotel as one might generally picture it.
I agree. I worked as an analyst where due to security policies we only had VBA. There was application which consisted of an Access DB for a "front end" (containing an interface to input data, generate reports in ppt/excel, etc) which connected to another access database as the "back end" and an admin console to pull in data from a SQL database. I had a lot of fun maintaining it.
I don't trust any cloud-hosted password apps. Too much trust in a single service.
> LLMs are great explainers of known theory.

When they don't lie. When they don't make up citations that don't exist.

I think GPT-4 is moderately useful for software development, and I use it daily, but I have to check even very minor things, and having ~25 years of programming experience means I can do that intuitively. A kid doesn't have that.
>Battery life might be lower, but I get the feeling that real world performance is really close.

According to users of both, real life battery life of the Pixel 8 is much lower than the benchmarks would suggest, because of the inferior SoC and modem which drains the battery much faster then the Qualcomm powered S23, when you use your phone a lot on data.

The problem is most battery benchmarks are pretty meaningless as they're always done indoor on WiFi which is a lot easier on the battery than when using the modem for data, so they don't reflect the real world use when you're out and about throughout the day roaming between cell towers of varying signal strength.

My biggest torture scenario for a phone's battery is web browsing on the train or in our office building. It literally nukes the battery compared to wifi.
Would one selection screen do or how many would you need? It seems like no other single competitor offers everything people want on their Android phone (app store, browser, calendar, cloud storage, contacts, payment, maps, mails, translation, ...).

We've needed a search engine that excludes the work of corporate giants that dominate our modern internet for a while. It's just never been so clear and dire as today.

Interestingly google used to have a per-user, user-controlled domain blacklist that go excised around ~2008 or so—presumably because this would have enabled automated blocking of high-value clients.
That looks like the same thing as now but it isn't, there's a lot of motives outside of just the money flowing.

Chrome doesn't have an incentive to follow every move benefiting Google anymore, projects such has the recent web integrity disaster would not even exist.

Android would have different incentives to diversify its revenue stream and would be more accepting to outsiders.
I wouldn't expect a carpenter to be skilled with a draw knife without substantial experience using it. The tools you use have a large impact on your performance. Same is true for software when it comes to understanding the intricacies of the tools, which is especially needed when troubleshooting odd issues.

I still maintain that switching from front end Angular to backend data engineering is more like switching from electrician to carpenter. They're both builders, but their tools and objectives are very different. If one doesn't see that, I question how deep into the craft they really are.
This is essentially the same exact problem as a classic chess playing program, recursively computing all possibilities N moves ahead, and an AI which "groks" the game's patterns and knows where to focus fewer resources with greater success.

This translates especially well to games like Go, where computing all moves is not even pragmatically possible the classic way. But AI beats the best Go players.

Raw models are excellent for establishing the theory, and for training the AI. But... the AI is better at figuring out more effective, precise, and efficient model within itself, based on both synthetic (based on models) and real data (actual weather patterns).

EDIT: And just to point out, this is not just an AI phenomenon. You are a neural network. And "intuition" is the sense of predicting outcomes you develop, without knowing how and why precisely. This is why I frown upon people with academic knowledge who dismiss people with say engineering or other practical experience in a field. A farmer may not tell you why doing things a weird way results in amazing crop yields, but he gets the gains, and when theory doesn't correlate with reality, it's not reality that's wrong, but the theory.

To recap, nothing beats "learning by example". And AI learns by example. Of course, the formal theoretic models that we can collectively share, explain, and evolve over time have their own strong benefits and have allowed us to grow as a civilization. Computers are in effect "formal computation machines". I don't think we'll run AI for long on digital circuits and it's a clumsy workaround. Computers will have analog processing units for AI and digital processing units for cold, hard logic and data. And the combination is the most powerful approach of all.

I brought a Samsung device once. It had its own version of each of Googles apps, named something confusingly close and they all sucked.

I have since transitioned to iOS, but since then I have avoided Samsung.

That's what I did recently. Got a cheap Xiaomi ($120 used) with a 120hz OLED display and a mid-range CPU and flashed PixelExperience on it: it feels like a $800 Pixel phone.
I just deployed to my neocities site then came and saw this comment :D

I almost got off of NeoCities recently because I thought I wanted to start adding dynamic parts to my website, but as history has shown me, whenever I start doing that I fall down a rabbit hole and get nothing done. So I buckled down and figured out how to overcome some stuff that was driving me nuts about Hugo and I'm back at it!

NeoCities definitely has a yonger-feeling crowd for the most part, but I quite like it. It's nice having the feed and discovering all the weird stuff people put on their sites. It does very well at bringing back the feeling of GeoCities. I also love how someone brought back the 88x31 buttons!

I also really appreciate the Sinatra + Sequel backend :)
I'm going to need an example of that. I tend to use Pyright, but when I used MyPy, I never had it simply ignore explicit hints.

If it's demonstrably untrue, you should be able to demonstrate it, right?
Interesting. Thanks for the heads up.
Wow, law enforcement sure does whine a lot when someone suggests they do their jobs and present evidence slightly more substantial than "Because I'm a cop and I say so".
Flagship means "the finest, largest, or most important one of a group of things".

In any case, right now the base model S23 is $659 and the Zenfone 10 is $619.99 (on Amazon US). Maybe you live somewhere where the prices are different.

I don't buy Samsung mostly because I loathe their advertising. They plastered historical monuments (like in Rome, Paris, etc) with billboards, and updated their SSD management software to serve ads. Android is often portrayed as a second-rate phone OS and Samsung makes it worse.

Aside: the S23 doesn't even have a 3.5mm headphone jack; the lack of which negates any and all other features or benefits.
Yeah, OPENSTEP for Mach (operating system) vs OpenStep (framework) vs OPENSTEP Enterprise (for Windows)
People who are arguing for webrings are not claiming they're easier. It turns out, if easy is your only metric, Everest would never have been climbed.
It's already pretty easy to spin up a facial recognition model, and it's likely that facial recognition will be an emergent property of multi-modal modals like GPT4/Dall-E.

How would the EU enforce a multinational ban on facial recognition or biometric pattern recognition?
And in the over 100 Tesla chargers I have visited, I think maybe 1 was broken and not labeled.

Good news is Tesla standard is coming to most car brands.

Bad news is it's not here yet.

I have a feeling that this headline will keep repeating itself as more imagery comes in and keeps getting analyzed. The first thing found from Webb that was further than Hubble gets "most distant ever seen", then the next thing from Webb that was further will get "most distant ever seen". We need to just have "most distant ever seen, yet" edit to them all
I like this author's idea of curating bookmark lists, but I think they are most effective when two criteria are followed: (1) keep the list small, (2) write small notes about each entry.

For example, the bookmarks list the author links to (https://www.marginalia.nu/links/bookmarks/) has 48 URLs annotated only by category. That's too many for my tiny brain to handle and I move on.

A webring like Hundred Rabbits' (https://webring.xxiivv.com/) has 203 entries. For me, this is in the same category as 48. (It also reminds me of those "Awesome X" lists on GitHub that end up flooded with hundreds of links.)

To attempt an example of what I mean, here's the bookmark list I publish on my website:

- Bret Victor (http://worrydream.com/) • interaction and abstraction

- Craig Mod (https://craigmod.com/) • long walks, atmospheric photos

- Hundred Rabbits (https://100r.co/site/home.html) • physical and digital minimalism from first principles, extensively documented

- Mu-An Chiou (http://muan.co/) • rhythm, space, movement, color

- Steven Wittens (http://acko.net/) • 3D sorcery

That's purely cultural - sky burial is a thing in some parts of the world.
Right, the passage of time is affected by how deep in a gravity well you are (i.e. how much acceleration you are experiencing). Time passes faster for satellites than for ground stations.
On my personal website [0] I've kept a small list of "mildly interesting sites" which just gets duplicated onto each page (all static HTML), but it feels like I've only ever removed dead links from it and rarely added anything.

I am someone with severe adhd and I only use meds ( adderal) if needed. The side effects are heavy on the long run.

Having coping mechanisms and and understanding surrounding is way more important.

Without that and only meds I am only the person with the highest tension in the room.

And my adhd was measured. Low dopamine.

Btw I tried a adhd friendly diet and sports once . I don’t know if it was placebo or real but it felt like it helped much.

Mini meditative naps of 5 minutes also help if my brain is on the run.

Honestly in my opinion meds are the easy way out but the side effects make alternatives necessary. On the long run there need to be better solutions that imply that society has to go a step toward the mentally divergent or Ill and respect their behavior as good willing and maybe find a better way to incorporate those in the workplace and social life.

Sorry for edit:

For example. If I have one of those adhd moments, where I am bit to specific about something and talk too much because of it, my friends recognize this and tell me to „ wake up“. And everything is fine. But if someone like this is needed.. there I am ;)
Looking good. I worry about crossover and integration though. Will this be hosted on Dapr? What about Microsoft Orleans?
Samsung Notes, Reminder, Calendar, Browser are all much better than Google versions.
Edit. And I completely forgot Gallery with OneDrive integration.
Neither you nor the blog post "just" do something.

You both imply a conspiracy resulting from this document. You have no proof for any connection to anything relevant going from that.

The SNR-300 story is also completely unrelated. You just stacked it upon the conspiracy theory.
If you have the kind of clueless/toxic manager who is going to abuse this sort of arrangement, they are probably never going to agree to this sort of arrangement in this first place.

For nearly all working relationships, I think it's reasonable to keep an emergency communication channel open.
I’m guessing you can’t Airbnb them?
Nuclear fuel used to mean give an entire town radiation induced cancers while gas lighting them. Dark Circle is required watching.

You’re super excited and all I see is super excited for poor people who can’t move towns getting cancer, while misdirecting toward 3-Mile.

There’s no reason we can’t have safe nuclear power but we won’t get there if past wrongs aren’t fixed, and it seems like everyone is focusing on the wrong things.
That is a nice setup since it minimizes recovery time to nothing. I'm guessing you're using their B2?

I've had 2 drive failures since using BB so it's been worthwhile. But their Download software is pretty dreadful if you have large amount of files. I may try their ship-drive option next time.

Tracking their stock price, they are operating pretty lean, so I don't fault them for having crappy software.
Doesn't seem that complicated if you think of the final stage as the first to evolve. After all, all multicellular beings build their bodies from scratch passing through a number of intermediate stages. The surprising thing (for us) is that the intermediate stages can present themselves as viable organisms capable of living and feeding autonomously.

In other words, there is nothing preventing an embryo from optimising one of its growth stages into a individual capable of feeding by itself before completing its transformation into its final shape.
Presumably why people view Poker different is, instead of trying to beat the Casino (Black Jack, etc), with Poker you're trying to beat another person.

But regardless of it being the casino or another person, it's still a zero-sum game.
Well it has to be optimal and irreplaceable.
Update, some how I commented on the wrong thread.
Nice! If I were to write a test for invariant aspects of the function (eg, it produces valid json), will the system guarantee that those invariants are fulfilled? I suppose naively you could just do this by calling over and over and 'telling off' the model if it didn't get it right
Some state and local judges are elected.

The Federal Judiciary is appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate.
Overthinking responses to interruptions, looking for visual cues etc?
Standard thing: older textbooks are generally better. They tend to get dumbed down in new revisions, and modified to fit stupid standards about class syllabus.
Except that this is not a webapp. It's more like an endpoint-deployed application, like an iOS and Android app. Since it's gated by Google, you have to anticipate that things take really really long to deploy or are rejected.
Despite the fraud and lies about net worth it is apparently still large enough to subscribe to US Justice+. Is even the government pretending otherwise at this point?
I didn't realize that either (it sounds unbelievable but it's not). It (may) also explain why radon is such a big deal for some people. There's that much U below you (and much more as you go through the crust), if enough of it is "hot" and releases Radon (which I believe is a decay product, might be wrong) it can build up enough to poison the occupants of the house.
They don't even need to have a hunch. They just need to say they do, and in the cases where it even goes in front of a judge, it gets rubberstamped with a 97%+ approval rate.
> And honestly, a classroom of students staring at screens talking to AI bots sounds like a dystopia to me.

Would it be less dystopian if it were replaced with a hologram of a historical figure / scientist speaking as though an actual primary source on the matter but with the same LLM behind it?
Similar methodologies are being applied to climate modeling, too.

The Allen Institute has worked on it for a while, and has hired quite a few PhDs (https://allenai.org/climate-modeling).
I'm not sure I understand the point of your question.
Taking a walk is a good way to combine the two.

I’ve been in the weather space a bit now when developing https://dropory.com, a free service that lets you find the date with the least rain in the last 10 years - for any location. Good for finding a dry event or wedding date.

An FYI: It can take up to 10 min to generate a report - I had a spinner before but people just left the page. So I implemented email as a way to send the report. I’ve never used the emails addresses for anything else than that.

If you don’t want to leave your email, try it with a 10 min disposable email address. All
feedback welcome!
Sure, different claim than "they're not investigating a crime."
because it avoids all the pathological worse case performance unless you get insanely unlucky with the order the data is inserted... and even then you can do a rebalance if you're that concerned about it.
Indeed. The fact that nobody seems concerned about Github/Microsoft monopoly is concerning to say the least.

StumbleUpon was the best, I haven't had a better experience with finding interesting, relevant things on the internet.

Though I did find https://cloudhiker.net/ recently, which is aiming for the same thing, and I'm optimistic.
There is https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=ndis&apropos=0&sek... which will be gone in 14.0

Don't know why. Used it once eons ago with some crappy USB-dongle, and it worked. Maybe NDIS in windowsworld is EOL?
That would kind of suck too, wouldn't it? Like constantly being paranoid about the landlord up to some shenanigans to get your ass out?
Maybe for web games that's the dream. But for user interfaces that will mean dodgy homegrown text rendering, text selection, caret movement, etc on a site-by-site (or at least framework-by-framework) basis.
I was not intending to make that case. Negative real interest in our real life reality where the better off have better access to credit nearly certainly hurts cash based poor by making homes etc cost less in real terms to the rich at the expense of inflating the poor.

Basically the poor have worse access to credit than other groups so when interest goes negative in real terms the poor pay for it.
I'd much rather just get an interruption out of the
blue than have someone schedule a meeting to talk to me

After 15+ years of exploring my own ADHD and learning about others' experiences, I'm still constantly wowed by how differently we all react to this stuff.

For me, out-of-the-blue interruptions are a worst case scenario for my ADHD. It's very hard for me to get into the "flow" if I know that I might be interrupted at any moment. I prefer scheduled meetings as a less-evil alternative.

But many many feel similarly to you.
Music BPM has the same effect. For me personally the right cadence can almost induce a flow state immediately.
I didn't suggest they should. I'm saying a "doesn't meet the legal standard" != "not investigating a crime."
The EU holds elections in each country which barely anybody knows about. They're not heads of state. Members of EU parliament are called MEPs, and are totally separate from heads of state elected in national elections.
How is a land value tax any different from the status quo in this regards?

There are established means through which tax assessors appraise the value of properties. They are held accountable by means of appeals in the judicial system. Tax rates themselves are democratically determined by the electorate for whom they are applied.
>it doesn’t seem like they take instruction fusion into account

It is not mandatory.

Not considering fusion means we are looking at the worst case scenario for RISC-V, that is, a longer-looking path of non-fused yet typically fusable pairs.

Since even then RISC-V is looking no worse than ARM (even slightly better!), this is a very positive result for RISC-V.
