Google doesn’t have the attention span of a crack addled flea, I’ll be the first to admit that.

But Microsoft is doing some interesting things to productize its partnership with OpenAI.

You think all Apple did was “build a CPU?”. You can literally walk around with a 64 bit computer on your wrist that has cellular, WiFi, BT, GPS, a bunch of sensors and it can track workouts.

When I first got into fitness over a decade ago, a humongous much less capable Garmin was the state of the art and you had to wear a chest strap to monitor your heart rate.

If all a company has to do is license ARN tech, why is Apple so far ahead?

I got Amazoned a few months ago (I got a job in three weeks, don’t cry for me). While they are a shit company to work for, were you around before AWS when it took months and tens of thousands of dollars to build our infrastructure and you can now provision infrastructure by writing some yaml? They are also designing thier own processors.

I know first hand the type of technology that AWS has. Even Amazon retail and the logistic it takes to ship at that speed and volume is a modern miracle .

Facebook basically stopped competitors like TikTok and Snaps growth by rapidly competing with Reels.
I understand it as num / 1 = num. num / 0.5 = num * 2. Smaller the number I try to divide with, larger the answer. Means closer you get to zero the answer is already too large and at 0 it has to be infinite. The answer can't be just 0 at that point.
I really wish I understood the Debian change management process better. I guess I don't even really know if Raspbian is actually maintained by Debian.

But, when comparing [1] to [2], the rules file has a nice test that says "if DEB_HOST_ARCH is armhf, set the LLVM_HOST_TRIPLE to armv6k..." which seems to confirm a build configuration change.

Great stuff in this release.
Also thanks to the influx of former Unity users a lot of tools / modules / templates have been given a shot in the arm and the general maturity of Godot has increased a great deal recently. Its not yet at a level that some people would want, but its great to see progress.
My personal story:
Today I'm launching World Travel Index. Total effort time as solomaker was 4 years until today. I started shortly before Covid and when I was ready to launch Covid was still going on, which was really frustrating. I decided to start a bigger feature phase for tools back then. I was still busy for the last year, but finally can launch today.

I'm quite passionate traveler. After relying on various blogs and often finding myself with skewed travel durations, I was motivated to create a platform based on pure data. World Travel Index is the culmination of that vision, offering a way to validate and check travel assumptions against hard facts.

The lack of 10G across the board in consumer devices is disappointing.

Somewhere in the early 00s computers started to come standard with gigabit. I think you could order a PowerMac G4 with gigabit in 2000. To put that in perspective, at that time VCRs were still the most popular way to watch a movie.
Stretching the metaphor, but your jellybeans were in a group to start with, so halving it makes sense.

What to think about when making your first hire
"Small circuit boards from China are essentially free[..]"

A little later:

"Some time ago, I got access to a pick and place machine (a Charmhigh CHM-T36VA). I have it on semi-permanent loan."

Why is it, that it still makes sense to assemble boards yourself while outsourcing PCBs is a no-brainer?

It doesn't have to be "essentially free", but isn't there an assembly service that is suitable for hobby projects like this?

I assembled a fair share of PCBs, both for hobby and professionally (in R&D), but I neither have the time nor the space to do it anymore.

Agree. And if you hate going to the gym then I recommend the book “Body by Science”. It shows how to get stronger every week spending less than 30 min in the gym once a week. I have followed it for years now and it works. It won’t turn you into a body builder. But it will make you stronger every week.

I live in Switzerland nearish (35 minutes) to the German border. I need to drive to France (~1 hour) to get decent flavours. I'm a big fan of Brets. And I'm absolutely sick of Ungarisch, I'll never buy paprika crisps for myself ever again.

When I was a kid in Ireland, the only two flavours (Taytos) you could depend on getting at the shop for your 8 to 12p (the price at the time) was Salt & Vinegar and Cheese & Onion. I preferred the former and I still like them but the acid will burn your tongue for a few hours, so I don't have them often.

Taytos invented flavoured crisps... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tayto_(Republic_of_Ireland)

Human nature? Of freaking course! Using tools, seeking amusement? Yes, it's human nature.

Banding together to improve our chances of survival? Yeah. In the past it was a few dozen, now it's a few hundred thousand. I don't understand this notion that living in the woods or something is human nature. Working together to grow beyond that is human nature.
If you approach it from 0-, it tends to a large negative.
this is right. In fact it’s exactly the same for in office employees, it’s just that old style management can no longer judge people by when they walk in and out of the office.
> The (US) National Park Service disagrees with you, so much so that in some places they hire native elders to help them with controlled burns. They call the practices "cultural burning".

But that can only be justified by a raw appeal to public relations. No native elder has any relevant experience today.
Most people using python for prediction are interested in accuracy and typically use sklearn or NeuralNetwork libraries (TensorFlow, PyTorch). However if you are interested in understanding the data and doing linear models,`statsmodels` is an excellent library. It has a learning curve to interpret results, but that's really something people must use to understand and get a deeper insight into data
> Tesla showed a Cybertruck beating a 911 in the 1/4 while pulling a 911.

Yes, the slowest 911 you can buy.

> And very clearly we've been talking about 1/4 mile time for this entire discussion.

I'm not even sure what are we arguing about at this point. My entire point is that this is a clearly an apples to oranges comparison.
I think this LLM is quite fascinating, since it is self-hosted. It seems about as good as ChatGPT free for coding tasks, but write better descriptions.

Somehow these models does not seem to get that much hype here, that I would anticipate.

There are many ways to play a guitar.
The Iron Maiden guitarists, blew away everyone else in the early 1980s with their guitar solos(and playing in harmony). They had mastered pretty much every technique you can use on the electric guitar. Tapping, etc.

Yet, they can not play like Paco De Lucia, who finger picks a nylon stringed guitar. And Paco De Lucia can't play like they can. So who is really best?

Thanks for the clarification. The whole thing is pretty far from the principle of least surprise for me. But so is operating on a def. Why would that be allowed if it is likely to change? Oh well, not that I needed more reasons not to use Ruby.
I can't recommend django-ninja enough. It's an easy to use, extremely fast, typed API for django. I've found it to be better in almost all aspects when compared to djangorestframework.

eyJ... — is a beginning of base64 encoded JSON. The fact that I know it, and see it in standards make me feel bad.

I can't proof that this is wrong, but encoding one text format in other text format and wrapping it in third text format — seems wasteful and hacky. This relates not only to this specs, but rather to web development in general.

Not sure if one meltdown is the mean or even the median for how much time a kid takes to learn how to sit in one place without being distracted.

In any case, it doesn’t matter a whit if the average is one meltdown if your kid has gone without two consecutive meals. All this theorising goes out the window when the third meal is coming up and you’re struggling to get a morsel inside your kid. How many consecutive meals are you willing to let your kid skip on principle?

Comparing what we did in the past, how we lived in the past, what worked two decades ago is basically useless.

Phones exist. On demand entertainment exists. Kids know it. You know it. You aren’t putting any genie back in the bottle by trying to explain to your kid that since you grew up without being amused into eating, they need to do that too.
Never before have I read prose which soundly resonated with me! By the same measures, I too seek the stability and a place I can call "home". Yet every time I feel that I found a place I could call home, reality kicked back very hard and I was made to feel different, separate, an "other".

I'm not sure which direction I'm headed to, and unlike you, I haven't even found my calling, so at least you have it better than some. And at least, I know now that I'm not alone in this experience.

I'm lucky to never have had seizures but I had a constant muscular ticks when I was a teenager that mostly went away as I became an adult.

My experience is consistent with your theory of neural pathways getting set, with the exception that I still have get repetitive head ticks on multi-day periods of high anxiety. I completely believe that better and more consistent sleep as an adult (outside high-anxiety periods) also has a lot to do with it.

Another derivation-free optimization algorithm is the Cross-Entropy Method [1].

The main idea is to use a random generator to sample 100 points for example. Then take the 20 points with maximal evaluations. Finally adapt your random generator to maximize the chances of sampling those 20 points, and start again.

When used for continuous functions, you can use Gaussian random generator, and this becomes similar to the CMA-ES algorithm [2].

I think the cost and complexity of reproducing work is somewhat overestimated, as is the specific expertise of individual researchers, though maybe your field is exceptional in this regard.

Primary research, pioneering new techniques and equipment to explore the unknown, is time-consuming and costly and requires a lot of original thought and repeated failure until success is achieved. However, reproducing that work doesn't involve much of this. It's taking the developed methodology and repeating the original work. That may well involve expensive equipment and materials, and developing the technical expertise to use them, but that does not involve doing everything from scratch and should not take anything like as long or cost as much.

I also believe that we far too readily overestimate the specific special skills which PhD students and postdoctoral researchers possess. Their knowledge and skills could likely be transferred to others in fairly short order. This is done in industry routinely. A PhD student is learning to research from scratch; very little of their expertise will actually be unique, and the small bit that is unique is unlikely to be difficult for others to pick up. I know we don't like to think of researchers as replaceable cogs, but for the most part they are.

My background is life sciences, and some papers comprise years of work, particularly those involving clinical studies. However, the vast majority of research techniques are shared between labs, and most analytical equipment is off the shelf from vendors, even the very expensive stuff. Custom fabrication is common--we had our own workshop for custom mechanical and electronic parts--but most of that could have been handled by any contract fabricator given the drawings. And the really expensive equipment is often a shared departmental or institutional resource. Most of the work undertaken by most of the biological and medical research labs worldwide could be easily replicated by one of the others given the resources.

Depending upon the specific field, there are contract research organisations worldwide which could pick up a lot of this type of work. For life sciences, there are hundreds of CROs which could do this.

As one small bit of perspective. In my lab a PhD student worked on a problem (without success) for over a year. We gave it to a CRO and they had it done in a week. For less than £1000. The world is full of specialists who are extremely competent at doing work for other people, and they are often far more technically competent and efficient than academic researchers.

There are also plenty of annual cicadas in North America, which I assume you are talking about NA with the 13 and 17 year brood cycles. While not nearly as loud as the broods, annual cicadas have always been a sure sign of the seasons. I have always considered the end of summer when the cicadas stop singing. They become such a constant background noise that it is easy to forget that they are even there if you have lived in the area for awhile.

Thanks for policing my snacks. I like to munch on something occasionally of a weekday afternoon while working, or when watching a movie at home in the evening.

If it wasn't crisps it would be something very similar: savoury, unheated, not requiring a fridge, and can be put aside for later consumption when I've had enough.

I can't tolerate nuts and I don't like pretzels and similar salty grain products. So crisps it is.
