I have been struggling with many symptoms for close to a decade now. The worst one is acid reflux - only during the night, and when I wake literally every single morning my mouth tastes like I've been gargling concentrated vomit all night which is probably somewhat accurate. I think it's impacting my sleep as well.

Additionally I have seemingly incurable fungal infections on my feet, private areas etc. It's manageable but it makes me think a candida overgrowth could make sense. I also have what my doctor thinks is seborrheic dermatitis, causing a red rash that's spread over most of my face and scalp. Flakes a lot.

I wonder if there's something in this thread that could help. I asked my physician about antifungal pills as I haven't had any luck with creams etc but he wanted me to try to remove dairy from my diet. That seems to have had some effect, but the only manifestation of that effect is that if I do consume dairy my digestion acts up for a day or two. Hasn't helped the reflux or face/scalp rashes.

If anyone has any suggestions I'm open for anything.
Good, I wish the US had unions like this. Our wages have been ever whittled away at by inflation and lack of raises.
Thanks jerf for your thoughtful reply. tbh I was trolling hn for the very first time in 14 years and based on the response I have a natural talent for it. Who knew. The multi-core point is well taken, as it maps to my own professional experience in that transitional era as well.
This ruling is the direct outcome of congress passing a law to accomplish exactly this. You could contest the scope or specificity but this is about as far from changing rules on a whim as it could possibly get.
I've heard the leadership in China love that story about China's bureaucracy ordering the burning of the boats of Zheng He[1].

"From 1405 to 1433, large fleets commanded by Admiral Zheng He – under the auspices of the Yongle Emperor of the Ming dynasty – traveled to the Indian Ocean seven times. This attempt did not lead China to global expansion, as the Confucian bureaucracy under the next emperor reversed the policy of open exploration and by 1500, it became a capital offence to build a seagoing junk with more than two masts.[18] "

Many places in Europe are very bike-friendly. I used to commute 10km one way daily in pre-WFH time, it was very enjoyable except maybe 1-2 cold months.

Walking is probably the most efficient from a (public) health viewpoint. Given that the major problem in the West is lack of physical activity and excess calorie input.
Hybrid cars have batteries significantly smaller than any fully BEV. Sure, it takes that long for a BEV, but 120V should charge a hybrid to full much faster.

Even for a BEV, you can usually add 40-50 miles of charge overnight on a 120V plug. Not great for a roadtrip, but plenty for most folks daily commutes. In the example of an evacuation, it’s insufficient of course.

I'd call that a projection...

Out of all these, only checking references is actually a way to filter-out bullshit. Checking against what? A third party you trust... It's rather straightforward for simple facts, much less for complex ones. LLM help to automate some of that, but it doesn't fundamentally change how it's done.

Sure, I didn't intend to downplay the seriousness of nuclear war. It would be horrific and damaging to an extent never seen before.

My point was just that the logic of having only a few nukes while everyone else has many more doesn't work. China has 145 cities that have more than 1 million people. You wouldn't be a serious threat to their industrial base with only a few nukes, and so the effect of your deterrence would be minimal.
This is precisely what I'm ranting about. At this point, the Facebook container is privacy theatre.

You don't need a Facebook container, at least since “Total Cookie Protection”. Which itself it's just a better way to “disable 3rd party cookies”, that doesn't break websites, although Firefox's isolation goes beyond just cookies.

And Firefox isn't the only one that does it, although it may be the best. But Safari, Brave Browser and even Chrome have deployed similar protections. See for instance: https://brave.com/privacy-updates/7-ephemeral-storage/
> if you were coming from Mars and tried to re-implement Python from this document alone, you might have to guess things and in fact you would probably end up implementing quite a different language

Yes, I know that statement is in the Introduction, but I think it's rather ill-considered. If my implementation is consistent with the language reference, on what grounds would someone claim it was not an implementation of Python but a "different language"?
Agreed. It's not rocket science.

Unless you're mobility limited, everything in an attic should be accessible.

The main considerations are:

- Do work when it's cold outside. Do not be up there when it's warm and sunny
- Wear a breathing mask. N95 / painter's mask works fine. Glass insulation particles aren't lethal, but also aren't stuff you want in lungs
- Think twice. Then move. Slowly. And feel you're standing on something stable before fully transferring your weight
- Mind your head. The roof plywood will likely have roofing nails sticking through
- Bring 2 lights, preferably one lantern-type. That way you can leave one en route

If it's blown insulation, you can sweep it over and expose joists to stand on.

They're regularly spaced from the exterior wall to an interior beam, all running the same direction, and the support boards up to the roof will run down to one.
AFAIK we're still very far below the dynamic range human eyes are capable of seeing, so there's plenty of room to need to up the bit depth (and rate) for video if displays can improve. Our color gamuts also do not cover human vision.
The biggest politician on the side of the telecoms is Ted Cruz, who has this to say on the matter:

I only use DataGrip, but oh boy is that the best $8 a month that my employer pays for. I'd pay an absurd amount out of pocket per month for DG alone. Easily $100 probably.

I've used so many SQL GUIs and DataGrip is better than all of them in every way. From the top notch intellisense to the great GUI with safe and commitable changes, there's just so much that blows everyone else out of the water. I spent two years at one job settling for SequelPro, an old freeware MacOS SQL client. What the hell was wrong with me? For $8 a month, I could have felt much more comfortable and been more effective in my development.

Genuinely curious, HN folks - for those who downvoted this comment, can you share why you did so? I don’t personally mind sarcasm as long as it’s not aimed maliciously at an individual, and I read this comment as a sarcastic way of saying “how come American leadership in general doesn’t have a similar plan”. Do folks just downvote sarcasm as a rule?
In this case you "observed" the anthill by writing about and describing it.

Things emerge in to something. In this case it emerged in to models of the world that exist in mine and your mind.

The pattern that was the anthill exists, but it has not emerged in to something before it has emerged in to a model of something.

So I guess it goes wrong cause we use different definitions for what it means for something to emerge.

On a side note. I am not quite sure what you mean with "a fact of nature", my best guess is something like: it is an axiom of truth that anthills exist. But that does not make sense to me. Maybe it is more like: we observe anthills so they must exist. Idk? Probably not relevant, seams more like you are refuting some postmodern idealistic idea which states that everything is mind, which I don’t subscribe to.
> Think of yourself as the person you want to be, not the person you are.

I have always done this subconsciously, and although I can attribute a lot of my personal growth to this trait, it's also the source of a lot of self-loathing. If you can't accept the parts of you that differs from who you want to be, you'll spend a lot of energy focusing on perceived mistakes that others didn't even notice.
Price: Cost of labor is still orders of magnitudes cheaper in China.

Quality: The west has the better part of a century's worth of catching up to do in know-how.

Speed: See above. Also tighter government regulations, for better or worse.

Versatility: See above.

As it turns out, dumping domestic manufacturing capability didn't come without significant costs.
Chinas manufacturing is only “good” because we offshored US manufacturing to it. Undoing this will result in the US regaining this capacity. You can make arguments about pricing, but luckily the political class is realizing there are more important things.

I wonder how this ranking might change if we also took into account the energy required to produce the extra calories that humans need to consume in order to get around via these modes of transportation.

Like, you'd probably expend a lot of calories traveling 10 miles by unicycle, and over time maybe that would be more significant than the materials difference compared to cycling?

Of course, it depends a lot on the diet of the human in question.

The actual name format is implementation defined. Here's the output from clang 17:

int main():9
auto main()::(anonymous class)::operator()(std::source_location) const:5

so your formatter/helper would need to be compiler-aware, although to extract “main” in both cases I suppose you can just grab everything between the first whitespace and (, although I assume both types would contain specifiers like const where included in the return type. I don’t know what MSVC outputs.

Also geography makes the US different, and very successful.

China concentrated growth near the oceans because it's rivers were rather wild and dangerous. Also the farther you go west in China, the more rugged and desert like the country is.

Meanwhile the US has two different coasts. It also has a central portion with a river that is good for transport of goods. This as you say, decentralizes the country and massively lowers the risk of any one event knocking manufacturing out in the country.
This is likely the case. We have Apple News but we don’t open any of the magazines. We just read whatever the feed gives us. If Apple were to follow, it would help confirm our hunch.
This is an area that government subsidies could really influence change in urban planning and cutting oil demand. If there was a similar subsidy on bikes as there are on electric cars, I would expect the push back against bike infrastructure would become less. Right now in the Bay Area through poor design and aging infrastructure there is push back on bike lanes. An example is the Richmond bridge, which has a protected bike lane taking a 3rd lane of traffic that could see a larger number of riders if more ebikes become used. Likewise for the Bay Bridge, whose bike lane is a ghost town in the mornings when commute traffic is worst. This would be less of a problem if the lane went entirely to the city.

Batteries handle considerably more than 0.001% of the grid in California, and they are buying large scale battery installations like a drunken environmentalist. And the batteries are getting cheaper.

https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/u-s-battery-insta...

That is from 2022. From what I could gleam from a paywalled Bloomberg article, 2023 continued the growth curve.

Solar plus batteries are just cheaper and faster than nuclear. The pro nuclear argument would have won if we had started the carbon burn shutdown 20 years ago but they snoozed while the mad environmentalists successfully pushed solar and cell phones pushed batteries into economic dominance.
The intersection of all three. The overall metric.

Obviously if we make everything expensive and take 3x longer we can do better in the quality category. But attempting to move at the same speed will make us do things at a lower quality and/or higher price.

Also we likely don't even have the ability to move as fast as china.
Python doesn't have a standards document. It has a reference implementation that defines the language.

IOW, the python implementation is the standard, and therefore any code that relies on an implementation detail in the reference implementation is, by definition, correct.

Right, such a result would need to be marked with a new predicate (verb) like:
```
Subject - Transformer's Paper
Predicate - Score
Object - BLEU (28.4)
```
One of the trickiest things use a semantic triple store like this is that there's a lot of ways of phrasing the data, lots of ambiguity. LLMs help in this case by being able to more gracefully handle cases like having both 'Score' and 'Benchmark' predicates, mergining the two together.
Yes. Now connect the dots...
My favorite book in this micro-niche is "The mouse that roared" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mouse_That_Roared), which is hysterical for a nuclear doomsday book.
Sigh. Please don’t refer to the rather exceptional nature of Zig’s self hosting. There has been an insane amount of work put into the Zig compiler by various contributors. Probably easily eclipsing the effort to write two separate compilers. The whole WASM deal comes AFTER they essentially built the compiler both in C++ and Zig to reduce bootstrapping steps. That just addresses the bootstrapping cost and not the fact that you have to build the compiler at least twice - and if you do it before 1.0 - more than twice.
Cargoculting Zig’s development isn’t going to give you Zig’s success. Zig is successful because of Andrew presenting a vision of a language that lots of people was attracted to, and then cultivating the community well. It’s a well known fact in the community that the first C++ compiler had to go because it wasn’t well written, not because self hosting is great.

> The trouble is people think it goes deeper when the knowledge modeling part only happens incidentally because language and knowledge modeling are so closely related.

I think there's a strong argument to be made (that has been made) that much of our knowledge capability is built on language - that language did not simply allow us to communicate our knowledge, but actually allowed individuals to think in a new way.

I certainly agree that current LLMs have no regard for truth and logic at their core, and there are clearly areas where their ability to read and write does not translate to producing true statements. LLMs can't build things out of language like humans can.

I am less sure that LLMs don't have a long way to go before we reach the limits of what modeling language can do.
And on the plywood, go buy a 4x8 foot sheet and cut it into 4 4x2 foot sheets. These are easy to carry into your attic one or two at a time and you can lay them down as “tiles” that span 4 16in joists. Easy to just lay them down (screwed to the joists) to where you need to get and also continue extending your tiles later if you want to either get further or complete your “floor” for storage purposes. And you can still take up one tile at a time if you need to get access to something like the top side of a ceiling light fixture.
The bottom line is that if you ever send an IP frame larger than 1500 bytes outside of your own network, it's most likely that it will never reach its destination. Especially for IPv6.

At least part of what keeps people from switching to more eco-friendly transportation is the protection arms race: people buy bigger cars because they are safer for their occupants. This leads to more injuries because bigger cars do more damage. Which means people are more concerned about injuries and buy bigger cars.

This is one area where I am concerned about the impacts of electric vehicles. They weigh a lot more than ICE cars and might cause more significant injuries for pedestrians. There probably ought to be some sort of tax or fee on vehicles that scales by weight. However, that would favor ICE vehicles over EVs so it may not be popular among the people who might otherwise be interested in such things.

Note that I'm not against remote work, rather I'm all for it. But programmers like us here on HN are prone to tunnel vision on this topic: most people cannot bring their work home. Nurses, lab techs, construction workers, factory workers, plumbers, electricians, all these people still need to commute, and so we need to design our cities accordingly.
