This validates the approach of eating a ludicrous quantity of protein after working out.
You actually shouldn't learn any strategies. They're usually too difficult and very often don't make any sense.
There are two possible long-term plans: giving the checkmate and gaining more resources if you feel like you don't have enough to give the checkmate. In the majority of your middlegames (depending on your level) your plan should be attacking the king.
Attack the king and align your moves with this plan. That's the only strategy you should have. Don't overcomplicate chess. Then you should play as much as possible and get feedback. Most of the time you get it when you make a mistake and your opponent punishes you. This way you can slowly, game by game, build the next layer of your chess understanding.
Toms has always had a slight bias towards Intel in their assessments, I think. Their picks are pretty reasonable, but the "highest performance for gaming" category with the 7950X3D and 13900k doesn't make a lot of sense to me, when the 7800X3D which won the "High perf" category beats the 13900k significantly in most games benchmarks, while drawing much less power. Intel has some great value offerings, but the 7800X3D is the real champ in gaming right now. The fact they have Intel winning 3/5 of their categories seems like a demonstration of their subtle bias. Other sources like Anandtech have historically done a better job of neutral reporting.
This just sounds to me like you don't know a whole lot about the philosophy of law and you think it's not worth learning or thinking about.
Somehow I feel like I want to pronounce it monosyllabically, so like foaled, rather than like followed or (even worse) faux lead.

We are literally talking about Apple removing a system that allows seamless E2E encrypted chat with Android users. The result is less security and encryption for iMessage users!
Most likely because you are a solo founder? I think I that’s rare in YC.
Another thing -- if you are ever need Sudafed (the real stuff) and they are out ask for one of the allergy medicines, the -d version. Claritin-D, Zertec-D all have the primary active ingredient as Sudafed bundled with the Allergy medicine.
If you do don’t like mms, don’t use it, there are tons of alternatives. I have half a dozen chat apps.
Yes. It's my computer, my screen, my power, my network connection. I will choose which content I wish to view using my resources. I don't wish to view ads, especially the kind of intrusive, annoying ads that are predominant today. If they were simple banners that didn't try to interupt my use of the site and tax my CPU and network I probably would care a lot less.

If a site doesn't like those terms, fine. I'll find my content elsewhere.
Gorillas lack myostatin, a protein that inhibits muscle growth in us humans.
Oh this is very cool. It seems like the takeaway for body builders is “you don’t actually have to time protein ingestion super carefully?”
Oh, I only remembered seeing them inside the mobileprovision file. I’ll take another look, thanks.

I find the small families to be the saddest thing about America. It’s like extinction on the installment plan.
They don’t have to open it up freely. They could choose to add an API with a chat completion type of interface, whisper-like, etc.

Nothing would need to change in the existing terms and conditions with developers: we only accept binaries that use our official APIs.
There is no missing link. The issue is that the theory precluded that evolution was a straight line. They have different theories now about rivers and branches of evolution and no straight line.

Plus a lot of missing link evidence was apparently made up!
I’ve had iPhones for ten years and never once cared about RCS. Never even heard of it until recently, and I don’t think anyone I know has ever heard of it. It’s very very niche to care at all about it.
> Its whole premise is alleviating racism in the workplace

No, as a non american living in the US i find american obsession with race fascinating.

DEI is about every characteristic on which human can differ and how those difference play a role in the work place. Race is of course a factor , but so are neuro divergence, language, culture, gender and sexuality. Hell even things like "Don't schedule a meeting before 9 AM" is a form of inclusion for the non morning people.

> yet its practical effect is giving certain races a favorable edge in the hiring process, independent of merit.

Then that's a badly designed program. However the other side of the equation, if there some aspect of the workplace ( such as say every important meeting are at 8 AM) are needlessly preventing certain people of expressing their talent... we should also look into it.

> Most recently when he hired an engineer from one of these "favorable races" even when half of the interview panel recommended a no-hire.

Yeah sounds like a problem. Maybe look into the statistics to see if usually those type of candidate would have been rejected.
We've been on freeze for weeks now in preparation for the holiday season.
This is a fantastic project to open source, thank you so much! I’m going to be pouring over the code during the EOY holidays!
Gorillas aren't just "a bit strong" such that it could be explained by different exercise routines; they're stronger than world-class weightlifters. They're not strong because they don't sit at desks, they're strong because their bodies are tuned for strength and because they don't route as much energy to their brains.

Contrary to a lot of nature documentaries, homo sapiens has quite a lot of advantages; well above average vision, exquisite muscular control, quite excellent hearing, almost unmatched vocalization abilities, and of course, the supernal brain, among many other attributes of note. But we do quite literally punch well below our weight, by any metric; body size, muscle mass, etc. The sci-fi trope of human being weaker than orcs, weaker than Vulcans, weaker than Klingons, etc. actually has some basis in fact.
I hate to be the one to bursts bubbles, but there’s no cause of action here under the current legislation. None.

That is unless we’re talking about Beeper being the defendant.

They have incurred criminal liability by violating the CFAA and committing computer trespass and civil liability by violating the the OS license agreement and ToS that both prohibit reverse engineering (yes that supersedes DMCA exception) not to mention the general copyright violations of reselling Apple’s IP for $2/mo (pypush isn’t without proprietary Apple code).

CCIPS would have a field day with this and if by some weird “blow up in your face fashion” they get their hands on the referral after the antitrust division of the DOJ is done shrugging at it, Beeper might get more than they bargained for.

The only thing that could actually affect Apple in this, is if legislators pass new bills. The problem however is that this would have cascading effects across the industry, if not the economy as a whole, because there’s no way to legislate this in such a way that it would only affect Apple and Apple alone.

Anything short of that makes for a fun fantasy that I’m sure some people will get off on, but a fantasy nonetheless.
If the features of a product are properly decoupled from each other, you can get comparable results to the situation where they haven't been added at all.
My post wasn't neutral, but what little I said about religion more or less was.
Mine's Acer V223HQL. It takes ~5 seconds to power on.

This is my disagreeable take, but the reason UIs are always slow is because slow UI imposes less cognitive load on users, and also developers. You're doing less, that's less work for your brain. Only very few impatient vocal minority wants quicker responses. I care, but clearly I don't belong to the majority.
When possible (i.e. consent from management), every time (i.e. 10) I have used this approach, I was able to deliver zero-defect software, on time, and within the budget. This kind of documentation is literally the hardest work I've ever done in software. Eliminating ambiguity and vagueness is not for the faint of heart but the result is quite satisfying.
Thanks, I'm a big fan of your work in Trealla. Is true that there's still room to improve sizes, as right now the bundle size is not ideal.

Hopefully it will not take long for Wasmer to serve packages with a minimum bundle size, stay tuned for updates!
Yup. In a past job I did a lot of work writing ALSA drivers for custom souncards. The ALSA interface is a good example of this. They provide an API app developers can use to do sound stuff (change the volume, for example). In your sound card driver you provide an implementation of the API to do whatever changing the volume means for your particular hardware (in my case sending an i2c message to a digital potentiometer).

Nah, I just honestly very much dislike the choices about syntax. Like why on earth would you make rules like "some number of repeated punctuation on a separate line means something" (I hate this about Markdown too).

There is no need for such ambiguity. It makes parsing harder. It makes it hard to recognize that it's actually an element with some semantics attached and not just a weird decoration.

Also, a lot of capitalization.

TLA+ programs, from typographic perspective, look really, really awful.

There are languages which just look bad due to weird typographical choices of their authors. Usually because they use symbols in the context the font author never expected them to be used. For example, any language that uses camel-case or pascal-case is an affront to typography because font authors don't anticipate capital letters in the middle of the word surrounded by minuscule letters. Similarly, nobody expects sequences of "=" signs or ":" written adjacent to the following word rather than previous one etc.

Some look really awful due to extreme abuse of punctuation (C++ would be a good example with all the &&::<<<*_>>,<**>> stuff), others look very repetitive to the point that they make you lose focus (eg. Pascal-style language which have "if-then-else-end if" going on where sometimes for many lines you just keep reading the "cargo train" of "end, end, end, end if, end". Lisps are also in this category because they usually look too uniform.

TLA+ looks like a Fortran program from the 60's formatted on a physical typewriter with all sorts of weird uses of the small number of available glyphs to substitute for the actual typographical thing that wasn't available to the author.
I picked up Gleam for this years advent of code and I'm really impressed. There's some rough edges but so far I've not encountered anything that totally sucked.

It's overall a delightful language. Ergonomic syntax with the perfect balance of functional and imperative constructs.

I would like better parameter destructuring and the use syntax is a little weird / unintuitive. The biggest pain point so far for me though has been case expression if guard constraints. I think this may be an erlang constraint, but not being able to evaluate functions in if guards can produce some clunky code. Or at least takes some imagination to produce not clunky code. There's also some inconsistencies in the standard library that make using some things unintuitive. But on the flip side, the standard library is surprisingly rich for a new language not yet stable.

Plus, the BEAM target is snappy. Overall, what's not to love?
I just read the essay and found the examples given interesting. I certainly believe there are valuable lessons to be learned from them. However, I don't think the content fully supports the claim made in the title.

It seems that the author's focus is on how things can become needlessly complicated, even when trying to implement a seemingly simple feature. However, citing only a few examples is not sufficient evidence. Could we not also consider instances where writing additional code could actually help reducing long-term technical costs?

Aside from this, I found the following points interesting:

> A technique for reducing technical debt when adding a new feature is to work within the constraints of existing assumptions, rather than adding new ones.

> Even when it becomes apparent after the fact that the feature isn’t performing as well as we anticipated, the typical approach is to do nothing. Part of this is the sunk cost fallacy. Often there is the hope that even if the feature isn’t used today, it will be in the future. But there’s also a legitimate reason for doing nothing. Removing a feature also has a cost, both in the development effort needed to cleanly remove it, and in potentially upsetting customers. So once a feature is added to a product, it is almost always there to stay.
Why not on a piece of paper then?..
Wow, I've only read the abstract so far but this basically goes against all conventional research on this topic AFAIK. I read probably ~50 papers on this topic (maximal protein dosing) and emailed a few researchers about it as I was writing a book. I believe the saturation point for a relative dose for a single meal is generally held to be ~0.25g per kg of bodyweight. Of course, there are some obvious observable issues with this belief given that there are people who practice intermittent fasting and have no issues building muscle, so it'll be really interesting to see if this study replicates

EDIT: After skimming the paper, I don't see anything immediately wrong with it. But there are some important nuances to note: the subjects were all fasted and given milk protein (casein in milk protein is known to take longer to absorb than pure whey protein which is a popular choice for these studies), and the measurements were made after an hour of exercise. This would skew the results towards more protein sensitivity than in normal settings where a person is pretty much always somewhat well-fed and not always eating after exercise. This is still encouraging because the results for post-exercise protein metabolism have still indicated a much lower limit than a 100g dose. Their report that oxidation rates didn't increase significantly is also notable since the belief has generally been that excess protein is oxidized and burned for energy instead of being incorporated into muscle. However, it would've been nice for them to include a 50g group as well to see if the dose-response relationship was really still linear between 25-50-100

Ultimately, this result seems encouraging for increasing post-exercise protein consumption for muscle gain, but we shouldn't discount the fact that the subjects were fasted before exercise. It would be interesting to see this study prolonged over the course of a day with further protein ingestions to see if the area-under-the-curve of muscle protein synthesis would eventually equalize in both groups, or if the larger immediately-post-exercise dose made a lasting difference. Existing research seems to not indicate such an "anabolic window". I might speculate that there is a daily limit for protein ingestion, but it doesn't matter if you hit that limit in one meal or five. That said, I have previously come across a paper that found medium-sized, spaced out doses to be more effective than infrequent large doses and overly frequent small doses, so there's still more to discover here
This is an 18 year old kid.
faux lead is exactly how I pronounced it lol.

Does anyone have a consolidated timeline of the counters by Apple and patches by beeper with technical details? It would be fascinating to read
They have an advertisement begging for money at the top of the page.
> Email isn't end to end encrypted

E-mail can be end-to-end encrypted; you can use PGP (of which there are multiple implementations, all compatible) or some other custom cryptographic protocol. Having multiple compatible implementations does in no way prevent it from being secure.

> FTP and SSH are client-server protocols whereas iMessage is client-server(s)-client.

I don't understand how iMessage and FTP are different? Both have a server which mediates communication between different clients. The FTP server accepts & persists files which other clients then see and can download. The iMessage server does something similar but with messages.

> Do you actually believe these things you're claiming

Yes? I believe every person should have the right to choose which software they use to interact with services, whether it's first-party, third-party, or their own creation. I don't know nor care which browser you're using to read & reply to my comments and shouldn't have a say it in in any case - whatever happens on your machine is your own business only.

I don't understand what is so extreme about my position? It's like arguing that being able to open & create Microsoft Office files in anything but a Microsoft-approved version is heresy.
Prague shooting: Gunman dead after killing 14 at Charles University
> Just one year ago, Tim Cook had this to say about RCS: "I don't hear our users asking that we put a lot of energy in on that at this point. […] Buy your mom an iPhone.”

He said the quiet part out loud, and no one did anything about it. That moment (or any time before then) is when the battle was lost.

If our governments had any sense of justice, Apple would be facing anti-trust enforcement over that statement alone.
You are failing to understand my point. Companies get hacked all the time, no matter how competent their security practices.

One hack does not imply cardboard box. A history of hacks or bad security practices does, and it’s not clear yet that applies to 23andMe.
Are you sure? I assume younger teachers are the ones with younger kids starting school. I don't think paychecks for new starters and teacher assistants are that high. Unions usually care about employees with more years of service to the detriment of new employees.
I suspect that bodybuilding is unhealthy for a number of reasons and is obviously associated with steroid use. It seems possible to me (and I really don't know that much here) that some amount of steroid use may possibly increase health, but that is not what bodybuilders are interested in. Either way, I do not take them.
How often do top-ranking psychology journals publish replications?
In my opinion, it was the App Store and iCloud services era of Apple that made the company so user hostile to Mac users.

One of the things I liked about earlier OS X and Macs was the potential to do hacky things, and the plethora of tools to accomplish just that on your Mac.

Turns out hacking and tinkering has the potential to impact their bottom line, so no more of that without Apple getting in the way to make it inconvenient to impossible.
Have you heard Eric talk about beeper? He genuinely believes that beeper is the future of message apps. He keeps saying that beeper is the only company that is completely focused on building a messaging app, and thats why they will win. He is simply deluded.

I think you're about 5ish years out of date.

Most of the sites on cameras, gadgets, games, cars e.t.c. are dead or dying and have been replaced by youtube channels, many of them run by hobbyists.
Played sufficiently softly, the hammer doesn't strike the strings at all, but the damper is still lifted and held by the key.
> Gas cooking is obviously a more luxurious experience and anyone who says otherwise has not tried to make a hollandaise sauce on each.

I've made hollandaise and other delicate sauces on both. In my book, they're both perfectly fine. Excluding induction (which I have struggles with), I wouldn't call either better than the other.
You shouldn't hate to say it--it's absolutely true. We don't need yet another listicle site choked with ads competing in a zero sum slugfest for some top organic search result spot. Nobody needs it. The only thing these sites serve is the greed of whoever is producing them. The Internet is worse off the more of these that exist. This shouldn't be a controversial opinion.
Surviving is exercise for a gorilla. They carry their mass around, climb with it, occasionally compete with other gorillas, etc.

It's also key to consider that they're genetically programmed to develop more muscle mass with relatively large amounts of rest and no need to explicitly work out. Humans have survived in less abundant conditions, with leaner times and lower energy requirements. We've adapted to sacrifice mass and strength at times. In order to develop strength, we need to do hard work. While we're remarkably similar to gorillas, this is one way in which we differ quite a bit.
Most of them (especially the cold medicines) are not just ibuprofen/acetaminophen but are a "cocktail" that will also include dextromethorphan, guaifenesin, phenylephrine, diphenhydramine, etc in different combinations/amounts depending what they are intended for. I don't personally use them but I could see how it could be useful rather than buying a bunch of individual medications.
IMHO this is just a small part of a bigger struggle -- the right to use the browser of your choice (and thus one that also presents content the way you want), and by extension, the rest of your software and hardware environment.
Dude… as a landlord in a major American city, I’m lucky to be able to choose my tenants.

And while I’m talking about the regulations we face, let me further enlighten you. By making evictions extremely difficult and time-consuming to obtain, cities like mine have ensured that nobody in a marginal situation will be given a chance. We might like you, like your story, maybe even want to help. It doesn’t take getting screwed very many times before business sense has to take over.

Fwiw, as I’ve mentioned over the years a few times, I’m a liberal… but some of these rules in favor of tenants are fundamentally broken and hurt those they’re supposed to help.
It's hard to share and update.
America's Tipping Slowdown Isn't Slowing Down
The "notes" (non-video content) are hosted on relays like everything in Nostr.

The media is hosted on regular web servers and it says you can host it anywhere. It seems like most of the videos are hosted here: https://nostr.build/

Which is a paid service backed by AWS S3
Right to use Adblockers also means the remote server has the right to force you to download and display the ads as a condition of getting the content.

Thus begins the arms race. The client can simulate all that happening, but ultimately not actually present the ads to the user (possibly including a blank screen with a timer for enforced video ads).

Then the server starts forcing client attestation to make sure their scripts run in a trusted environment.

Gets really messy really quick.
I don't think giving a bunch of free money to people is a good solution either.
DEI != affirmative action

Most DEI work I've seen at my company was in reducing HR complaints from women, LGBT and different ethnic groups. When it comes to hiring, it was in showing up at recruiting events and other areas to encourage people to apply.

I've done interviews and I think they're more fair/merit-based than other places. I view it as a positive. Also barely any minority applicants.

A lot of DEI was to counterract really annoying people on one side who were very racist, homophobic, sexist, etc. and ruin the environment or opportunities for people. I think this is just the pendulum swinging the other direction where some people are very vocal or unfair in dealing with men, white people, republican, etc. and/or creating an unproductive work environment getting mired in politics.

Also recession creates more economic pressure for results, but I honestly think DEI has barely had an impact in most companies and most revenue loss is hiring consultats or bad hires.
