I just cleared a serious sinus infection that had impacted the base of my skull and neck spinal discs. 4 hospitalizations this year an not a single mention.

I am on TRT and used a TENs machine to kick start my muscles again before hitting the gym and 1 session loosened enough to let my body pour out YEARS WORTH OF SCUM.

I have photos and posted a video to JPS Hospital on my IG because seeing this stuff is really disturbing.

Point being: My perspective is the US medical system at my disposal is utter shit and self-care is extremely important and these people sent me to collections and home with a potentially fatal respiratory suppression.
RX 550 windows support is being dropped by AMD as well. Linux community support will continue but at some point official support does end for these things.

https://videocardz.com/newz/amd-confirms-polaris-and-vega-ar...

Obviously having an open driver is nice (and nvidia is upstreaming one) but AMD still doesn’t support consumer cards in ROCm in Linux, AMD still doesn’t support hdmi 2.1 in Linux, and there’s probably (different) business concerns for nvidia as well. Not everything can be opened up - again, see hdmi 2.1, which will probably continue to require closed releases due to licensing requirements.

> Why are people surprised by them not using blue origin?

Blue origin is owned by JB and is de facto considered "amazon's rocket company". Even actual amazonians believe this.

> Blue origin isn't scheduled to fly for some time yet.

Due to schedule slips. Egregious schedule slips. The original plan was to launch the bulk of the satellites with Blue Origin.

> Amazon already announced agreements with 2 other companies as well.

Neither of those companies directly compete with Kuiper. Starlink and Kuiper do compete with each other.

> Why would they want their Kuiper project to depend on the success of Blue Origin?

It's not that Amazon intended for this to happen. Blue Origin is so incredibly far behind their deadlines that amazon's hand was forced. A decision was never made to state Kuiper on Blue. A decision was made to move away from blue because they cannot deliver on their promise.

> See Google and Tesla both being major customers of nvidia despite both making their own TPUs.

TPUs are not a core business of either player. They are used internally. There is a very meaningful difference between TPUs and a satellite Internet constellation.
> [...] replace html and js with something more strict, lighter, secure and safe by design, that would prevent the use of targeted ads like it's possible in HTML.

You can't do that and still have a useful system. You'd have to start by neutering basic functionality like inline images, and when that turns out to not be enough (because ads can also be just text), you'd have to go down the path of censorship.

You can't do that because the ability to fingerprint (and thus track) user-agents is not an oversight in the design of the web (although third-party cookies did help kickstart the current trends), but a fundamental property of the universe - every existing "thing" radiates information, and our means to collect and process it are developing faster than our understanding of what needs to be done to conceal it.

> I understand that companies might probably not use something else if it's harder to put ads because they could not make money, but there are still a lot of use cases where companies will prefer having a technology that's safe.

You can try measuring commercial support for Gemini[1] to get an indicator of how valuable your proposed technology would be for companies. The current network effect of well... the network, is way too strong.

> Also, maybe a lot of internet media companies, including reddit, instagram, etc need to rethink their business model [...]

They don't need to rethink anything at all while what they're doing right now is 1. profitable, 2. legal, and 3. even when not exactly legal, the fines continue to be smaller than the profits.

> The law is evolving which means targeted ads will not be viable anymore.

Pretty much this, you can't solve social/political problems with technology. We could use a simpler/safer web, but the cost of switching outweighs the benefits. We could build better privacy protections into the core of our technology, but we will keep finding ways to leak information and fingerprint behavior.

The problem with Manifest v3 is not what Manifest v3 allows and what it doesn't, the problem is that Google are in a position to unilaterally force it, and antitrust no longer seems to be a thing.

The only real change we can hope for is a social/political change.

Stop relying on your mobile number. I am not sim swappable because only my carrier knows my number. I don’t use the phone number of my SIM card for anything.

In fact I replace it every 90 days with a new one bought for cash (Mint prepaid) with a new number.
2000 or so would like a word with you. "Tech" hasn't really melted down even if there have been layoffs, it's harder to find new positions, and a lot of crappy startups have shutdown. Dot-bomb was an absolute nuclear winter by comparison. (May still happen of course but probably not.)
Hi I'm looking for interesting hard tech R&D opportunities especially in startups. I want to build new technology and ideas. I have worked on topics related to machine learning and social science, rock mechanics, glaciology, and fluids. Doing things with data is fun.

The article doesn't say whether this is higher or lower than usual when compared to the total startup population.

Saying "this is the highest number ever reported" is like when presidents brag about receiving the most votes in history - the population is just bigger!

> But most fires in the California coast are human caused. Today, lightning is extremely rare.

Is it actually any less common than it used to be, or are lightning fires simply a much smaller percentage of burning measured by fire count or acreage?

I can't speak for CA but up in Oregon we regularly have lightning causing fires all summer.

As pointed out in a different comment thread here, that’s a header tank which was used in older, multi-level buildings where city water pressure was not adequate for the rise to upper floors. Builders would set up a tank that slowly filled using the lower pressure and could act as a sort of mini water tower for the building. This did not contain hot water, but there is a chance a hot water tank was using this supply.
I replied separately, but this is being written about because up to now, every last elite climber said 'nope, I'll 100% die on this one'. Well, perhaps there were aborted attempts (I'm not aware of any), but you abort when it becomes impossible, ie death is looming.

People can quote stats for Himalayan climbs and the such, but a climb like this lacks meaningful statistics. It is so far from a trudge up Everest, and unequalled, that I don't see how to assign a stat. Right now it stands at 0%, which is probably not the right number.
The flavor text is always great. I loved yesterday's "the sky. Where did you think snow comes from?"
RDF and semantic web used to be my goto's for this, as I believe many of the core ideas are still valid and often overlooked and sometimes even poorly re-implemented. Which says something.

However, lately I've come to like llama.cpp and friends, yes it's not ChatGTP miracle whatever but how often do you /actually/ need that? Despite its tremendous popularity, it still seems like something more people should know about. For me, I've had great fun with running LLMs locally and experiencing their different "flavors" from a more "phenomenological" (what is it like to use them) perspective rather than a technological one.
If you ask most people who work at Amazon they will tell you that Blue Origin is amazon's rocket company. The perception of vertical integration is there. Also, Amazon initially went with Blue and that decision was so bad in hind sight they are being sued https://www.bizjournals.com/seattle/news/2023/09/07/amazon-f... that implies some bias towards Blue.
Science proves some things. You can prove that something is possible by demonstrating it or with a good enough model even.

> No-one should be taxed on income anywhere near that level.

Don’t misunderstand me. I completely agree with this and would prefer having the standard deduction even higher with higher taxes above it to compensate.

> Federal minimum wage is $15,080.

I know which is why I said “close to”. This also with the assumption that it’s always 40 hours a week and you never get sick or need time off (which would assuredly be unpaid).

Even working 36 hours per week, every week, at minimum wage (which is considered a full time job), would put you under the standard deduction.
Just anecdotal, but I always noticed people I knew that had tinnitus had a history of using a lot of over the counter pain medication
The pure difficulty of the technical climbing was not remarkable.

The grade they gave was M7, AI5, A0. M7 is moderate, AI5 is moderate but strenuous, and A0 is the very easiest A grade. The details of what these grades mean are discussed in other comments. If there was a climb with that grade close to the road in the U.S. Rocky Mountains, it would be considered a fun but not-too-challenging day of climbing by these guys.

But combine this moderate climbing grade with: the weight of a week's worth of camping supplies; the very high altitude; the very cold temperatures; the constant threat of terrible weather; the constant threat of avalanche or ice fall; and the very far distance from any kind of help... and you begin to see how it is a remarkable achievement.

The risk of death was high, yes. But it's not like playing Russian Roulette or running across a busy highway or something. The hazards are inherently part of the climbing goal, and a huge part of the achievement is in how the risks were mitigated: peak physical fitness; long climbing experience; the lightest gear; the best weather forecasting; the best planning and logistics, etc.

Metaphorically: you can't build a plane with the same safety margins you use to a build a bridge. And you can't get a rocket to orbit with the same safety margins you use for a passenger plane. The harder the objective (physically), the smaller the safety margin is available, and the more skill and expertise it takes to make it work.
I've also genuinely wondered if using white trash bags would have a measurable impact. Hopefully that's all going away with their "large bins" and make room for foliage

> Theranos enters the chat and would like to have a word.

Theranos is the perfect case in point: no biotech VC invested in Theranos. Not a single one. They avoided it like the plague because anyone who did any due diligence knew that using blood from a finger prick for accurate diagnostics was a physical impossibility.

The list of Theranos investors is all "dumb money" like Rupert Murdoch, Betsy DeVos (that Betsy DeVos), Larry Ellison, Robert Kraft, and the Walton family among others.
Firefox kinda also does. In both cases side loading is rather painful experience, thanks to all the malware that is exploiting the extensions feature.
Actually, for accordion (i.e., details and summary), as I understand it, is not accessible out of the box. It's odd that the spec for that control / UI element / tags isn't accessible. But you can use JS to fix that.

> I'd eat when I was hungry, and eat enough to stay at my long term stable weight. If I ever stopped tracking every calorie in, my default sense of "full" tended towards a caloric surplus.

IIRC, stomachs are fairly elastic, and so can expand. If one consumes/d larger volumes for an extended period of time then that stretch could perhaps become permanent (AIUI), so to actually feel full you have to consume more—which then the rest of one's body has to deal with.

It's one of the things that gastric bands can help with, and also sleeve gastrectomy.
Most people know about MediaWiki even if they don't realize they do, because it powers Wikipedia, but I wish more people used it for documentation.

You can create highly specialized templates in Lua, and there's a RDBMS extension called Cargo that gives you some limited SQL ability too. With these tools you can build basically an entirely custom CMS on top of the base MW software, while retaining everything that's great about MW (easy page history, anyone can start editing including with a WYSIWYG editor, really fine-grained permissions control across user groups, a fantastic API for automated edits).

It doesn't have the range of plugins to external services the way something like Confluence has, but you can host it yourself and have a great platform for documentation.

All these cloud service providers have bugs and issues.

But the problem with Google is that their support seems somehow disconnected from the real world. There is support, and they do respond to chats, calls, or emails. However, it often feels like I'm talking to someone who doesn't genuinely care about my concerns or do understand what I’m talking about.

Good support is hard to come by and hard to implement. So I really don't know what is missing in Google's support that exists in AWS support. Maybe because AWS support staff are trained to first put themselves in the customer's shoes and understand the problem from my perspective.

> pushing downward on the top of my head with my hands

Have you tried pulling up to make it less noticeable? I’ve long suspected my neck muscles had something to do with making tinnitus worse. Or, like you said, maybe there is a correlation or interaction with head & neck muscles that isn’t causal but nonetheless seems to affect the symptoms. Cervical traction, i.e. a device that pulls up on your head, sometimes seems to help me, as does neck stretching & relaxation. Make sure to consult a doctor or physical therapist about cervical traction, it’s easy to overdo it without guidance.
They can also allow service to anyone they want and accept the liability, whatever that may be for doing so, which is what they are doing.

I'm not disagreeing with you, or trying to defend Cloudflare – I just see a very complicated situation, especially when you consider the DNS ecosystem, which in itself is extremely shady. You also run the risk of DMCA-style procedures that would require equal application across service providers and would undoubtedly be abused by bad actors.

For an extension to be entirely declarative, it must package all the scripts to inject anywhere, the scripting.registerContentScript API doesn't allow injecting code as string[1], the content scripts must be part of the package.[2]

There is userScripts API which allows injecting code as string, but it's impractical as in Chromium-based browsers this requires extra steps by the user to enable the API.[3] In Firefox, the documentation for this API has the following note[4]:

> When using Manifest V3 or higher, use scripting.registerContentScripts() to register scripts

The fundamental problem is refresh rate. If you have two phones that refresh at 240Hz (the fastest I know of), and you want your frame rate to be 12 Hz, you’ll still only be getting 20 refreshes per 180 degree rotation. So your angular resolution will only be 9 degrees. Assuming you use portrait mode, that will make your outermost voxels ~5 mm arcs.

And even there, 12 Hz is probably pushing it in terms of flicker.

Firefox extensions don't need to be listed in the web store, but they must be signed by Mozilla, no exceptions.

I have used both browsers, and I find sideloading in Chrome to be completely painless. I use many sideloaded extensions in Chrome (mostly because I wanted to make small edits to existing extensions).

I guess I'm trying to figure out whether all this fuss is really a limitation of Manifest v3, or merely Chrome Web Store policy. If the latter, I don't see a problem as long as sideloading is possible, and I really hope UBlock Origin will just go that route.

Sideloading is the real freedom which everyone should rally around and protect. (I am extremely unhappy with Mozilla's approach to this, if you can't tell.)
> Thus I'm suggesting that it can be justifiable to bomb a hospital or school in which enemy combatants are launching attacks from, yet also justifiable to do an act of violence on enemy taxpayers + potential conscripts in general.

Wow, this feels like the one. Having port based communications feels like what's necessary for fabric mode. A robust trust/security model. 32 bits of user-defined metadata for addresses, allowing all kinds of fancy smart pointers stuff. P2p dma- between devices.

My favorite though is host-to-host memory access! We have all these systems connected via the most awesome high-speed dma system. Not having the hosts be able to communicate over it felt absurd. I was starting to think this was going to be a long dwelling complaint! Not bad seeing this addressed, 15 months after 3.0 was announced.

Now, let's see when we start getting post CXL 2.0 devices!
Mozilla are entirely clear that this was their bug.

However, GCP changing the default under their infrastructure without prior warning was still unacceptable.

Operations work should (IMO must) be conducted with the expectation that any major change like that will expose existing bugs in deployed code.

(I've done enough ops work in my life that I'd love to say 'will potentially expose' but in practice there's always -something- that breaks and if I don't find it in the first 24h after a major change I'm going to spend the next two weeks waiting for the shoe drop to happen)
Related to this, Revo Uninstaller. Sometimes programs don't clean up after themselves properly or the uninstaller is broken. Revo doesn't care, it tries to uninstall nicely first then resorts to scanning the drive for any remaining files, then scans the registry for remaining keys.

Not many people seem to know about it and everyone I show it to loves it!
There's a whole category of utopian developer environments and languages with far bigger aspirations than they were able to achieve but that still influenced others. Smalltalk being another example.

As I understand you, what you state is exactly what I meant. If you train with a bunch of text containing substrings of those 50-grams, but not the full 50-grams themselves [or, expose it to the same vocabulary used in the same parts of speech as in the full 50], the model will pretty readily produce the full 50-grams despite never having seen them in their entirety. Try it out, it's pretty easy to do on a modern GPU and can be done in less than an hour.
I was using Nim for some of last years Advent of Code problems. I was mostly liking the syntax. Was a bit bother by the standard library have a snake case and camel case reference for each function (if I'm remember that correctly).

At the time nimble also required me to have NPM to install the the Nim package manager, Nimble. This was not ideal, but looking at [the nimble project install docs](https://github.com/nim-lang/nimble#installation) it seems like it is now package with the language.

Might try dusting it off for some AoC puzzles this year :)
