I'll speculate:

this looks like textbook runway invasion where miscommunication leads to two different aircrafts being allowed on a runway at the same time.

Reminds me of LATAM 2213, which led to the very first Airbus 320 neo being written off [1].

Essentially, clearance to enter a runway has to be expressively given and confirmed in non-ubiquitous language ("Flight ABC requesting clearance to enter runway 01").

Yet LATAM incident shows how often emergency services are often unaccustomed to thorough communication (after all they do these procedures much more rarely)

To clarify fonts are not made complicated so they can legally pose as software. There are many real reasons why they are complicated. Yes they are licensed as software (they are sort of plugins) but its not related to the complicateness.

Yes. I admit, I watched it when it first came out, I didn't rewatch it when it was posted here, but from what I recall he spent way more time deriding utopian reformers than on the serious efforts/actual different systems in use (though he did at least admit they existed).
I agree with all of that and my point still stands. Older people, for which frailty and maintenance of lean muscle mass are real concerns, tend to get suboptimal protein, and they aren't supplementing with whey en masse. Bodybuilders aren't eating low numbers of calories so they as a model are kind of a moot point for this topic

There is also a limit to the rate at which you can assimilate amino acids which is why all things being equal spacing out the protein throughout the day is more optimal.

Very nice blog post, thank you for sharing!

I spotted a small error in the Finally, Colors. section:

Thanks for the deep insight, Naval.
Very nice algorithm - no square roots and 1 digit per iteration guaranteed.

I converted this into python to understand it better

def log10(x):
"""
Find 10 decimal places of log10(x) using calculator functions only
"""
assert x > 0, "can't log <= 0"
log = 0
while x >= 10:
log += 1
x /= 10
while x < 1:
log -= 1
x *= 10
# x is now [1, 10)

decimal = 0.1
for i in range(10):
x10 = x**10 # or calculate as above so as not to use power function
while x10 >= 10:
log += decimal
x10 /= 10
x = x10
decimal /= 10
print(f"log10(x) = {log:.10f}, x = {x:.10f}")

SuperTabs is Chrom{e|ium} only which doesn't help as I'm moving to FF. OneTab looks partly useful, but often where I came from is important as well as the current tab location, if I've travelled through links “normally” rather than opening in a new tab every time, and I wouldn't expect it to keep that history.

Really, I need to get away from using tabs for long-term state rather than finding a better way to use tabs for that. It would make switching UA easier when I want to, and switching machine too for that matter.

Also, I've been burned by tab and/or session management extensions going stalky (TheGreatSuspender & friends), or stagnating and failing after a time.

I want to move as much state beyond active interactive use away from the browser. I've never kept passwords there or gone in for built-in sync options, but feel the need to take this further. The older I get, the more I see tight integration as a lock-in rather than a benefit.

Right now Eleven Labs is your best bet.

xTTS is just not there quality wise. The version available in the studio is marginally better than the OSS version but it's still pretty far from being believable.

> most of the calories burnt are just so the body can maintain itself (basal metabolism), not from the exercise!

When reporting how many calories are burned through exercise, people usually count what is in addition to being at rest/sedentary. But the total reported by this calculator includes the basal rate. That's why it's so high.
Does this mean when the Airbus landed, there was a Coast Guard plane on the runway? Seems like the ground control had made a serious mistake.
Hofstede's Cultural Dimensions Theory
Only necessary if you keep your job. If you don’t, there are plenty of places you can live very nicely without having to explain where all that money came from.

Exactly this. We could build a network of commuter trains, but not everyone thinks that commuting as a life style is the future they want, so they comprehensibly don't want to pay that with their taxes. We could build enough houses to give housing to everyone, but many people don't want their neighbourhood turned into a concrete jungle or a "bad" neighborhood at their expense, so they would vote against a candidate with radical plans about housing. We could elect representatives choosing from a multiparty system with multi-preference, but many countries that do have large coalitions that regularly transition into government crises every time one of the parties thinks they'd have a better chance on a new election.

I find this kind of reasoning more and more frequent on the Internet: someone starts their rant with "we all agree that A is bad", while in reality 1) we don't even all agree that A is a problem 2) we don't all agree that, A being a problem, it is worse than the alternatives 3) sometimes, saying "A is a problem" is the only socially allowed take even if you don't care / don't think it is

This is a myth, one I used to believe, until I started exercising to just improve my cardiovascular health. Lo and behold, I started losing fat unintentionally (my weight only dropped a little, but I think my body composition is better as well, so some muscle was gained).

My weight lifting doesn't burn many calories, but I typically burn 2000-3000 calories a week running. This is close enough to my basal metabolic rate that it is calorically equivalent to fasting one day per week. This is more exercise than is typical, granted, but it does suggest that one can exercise off calories and it doesn't take all that much time to make a dent.

I will say, this kind of caloric burn ups my appetite and I'm not trying to lose weight, so I eat more to compensate.
If we have to be pedantic, France declared war over Prussia. Germany did not exists at the time.

Banking on Status (2020)

Train movements between stations are simulated based on the expected speed between two points and not based on GPS tracks, sadly, so it's not very useful if you want to check whether your train is stuck (say, due to traffic or signal failures). Notice that the circles representing trains occasionally move at unnaturally high speeds -- this presumably happens when a train enters a station and its location is corrected. It would certainly be useful to be able to see the actual real-time location of a train and not just the approximate location (and I'd assume that at least some of the maps from other countries are indeed based on real-time GPS data!) -- this exists for buses in Oslo (only available in the public transport company's app, unfortunately) and it's nice to know for sure whether you'll have to run to catch your bus or not.

(Several years ago when looking into the possibility of creating a real-time train map, I read that certain train operators and/or the national government considers publishing the exact locations of trains to be a security risk, so unless opinions on this have changed I don't have high hopes that we're getting it soon.)
>For example, the book describes R^2 as a "pair" of real numbers.

I naturally auto-corrected this "(the set of) pairs of real numbers".
If that's the case, then I don't see how this differs from the actual definition.

Historically, people also cut down most of the forests in the Mediterranean for firewood and shipbuilding without even attempting to balance the process, causing major problems for their descendants. Most of this activity predated modern capitalism by millennia.

Historically and currently, people polluted common waters and air with all sorts of agricultural and industrial runoff. Heck, someone around me has been feeding their home fireplace with plastic right now and fifty other families have to smell the acrid smoke.

Historically and currently, people overfished oceanic stocks to total depletion in certain seas.

Historically and currently, people dumped their refuse somewhere behind their village or city, creating rotting heaps of trash.

I don't see anything made up about the tragedy of the commons.
Learning from a book without having a real life problem I want to solve with this learning is really hard for me. If I have a problem I want to solve and use a book to find a path to the solution within it's pages, learning from the book is no problem at all.

If I have no real life problem to solve and only read the book because I like the topic or want to learn from it for my future I only remember the broad concepts. But nevertheless, at least you know what's in that book and if you encounter a problem in the future you can revisit the book again.

> Lifespan and metabolic health are influenced by dietary nutrients. Recent studies show that a reduced protein intake or low-protein/high-carbohydrate diet plays a critical role in longevity/metabolic health. Additionally, specific amino acids (AAs), including methionine or branched-chain AAs (BCAAs), are associated with the regulation of lifespan/ageing and metabolism through multiple mechanisms. Therefore, methionine or BCAAs restriction may lead to the benefits on longevity/metabolic health. Moreover, epidemiological studies show that a high intake of animal protein, particularly red meat, which contains high levels of methionine and BCAAs, may be related to the promotion of age-related diseases.
Both operating systems already require opt in (at the system level) for applications to be able to send notifications. I think Android enforces this even for apps targeting older API levels, except you just get prompted for the permission when you open the app.
Yeah, I immediately thought of this story as a kind of reverse version of that.

Instead of buggy code causing innocent people to become criminals, here a “computer glitch” was blamed to explain away a signs of criminal behavior.

It certainly does make more sense than what you said.

> But this is my point. Why not? Why are people picking this one thing (food) to be "more like our ancestors" and not any of the countless other variables?

It seems that you are surprised that people are talking about food on a thread about food. People are also picking those countless other variables, they are just aware of things like context.

> And why is wanting to be like our ancestors even a thing given that they probably had hard lives that would basically be considered poverty by our standards?

It isn't wanting to be like our ancestors. It is about being healthy.
It's the calorie deficit that matters.
If the vegan diet was one of the outcomes from his experiments (where the goal is to optimize for anti-aging), I'd be fine with it. But it's a restriction he put on himself based on a ethical/philosophical motivation.
The compression rate in audio compression is really limited. In most cases it is difficult to decrease below 50 percent.

Therefore, it is not a logical choice to increase the process rate in order to provide a few percent more compression between audio codecs. As a result, high processing times are high energy.

The lesson here is that not all phenotypes age at the same rate. Bryan doesn't have a choice in that, like none of us have. He mentions that his hair started falling out in his 30's while I have a full head of hair in my 40's. He's promoting a lifestyle and being an experiment, he doesn't need to caveat his work in any way.
With a very, very short amount of research you'd find he has a pretty seasoned track record, having sold Venmo's parent company to PayPal for $800m in 2013. Not exactly the drop-shipping repackaged olive oil salesman you're painting him to be.

Personally, I try not to throw out accusations about people when I'm this unfamiliar with their background. I'd encourage you to consider a similar habit :)

I worked with a lot of systems that had Y2K bugs, but in every single case the failure would have been quickly noticed and fixed (or not: living with buggy software was pretty common).

None of the systems were all that reliable in the first place. Software was even more buggy and unreliable than it is today. “Turn it off and on again” was the standard way of fixing things. Manual workarounds were very common.

Yet, who knows how much money was spent hunting down and fixing Y2K bugs in systems that were not critical, and where not even dependable.

I’d wager that for almost all the systems that a lot of money was spent bringing into compliance, it would have been cheaper and simpler just to let them fail, and deal with the problem afterwards, which would have been just another day at the office.
Good luck, launching fast is really the key!
Heavily depends on money available / crime level tolerance - albeit crime level in the US is pretty crazy.

Europe is deteriorating incredibly rapidly in terms of crime (due to a combination of economic poverty and uncontrolled immigration from third world countries) - but I think some of the low tax EU countries (Malta, Cyprus, Gibraltar, etc) are a good bet for a few more years.

My top choice if I had family (or friends I want to be close with) in the US would be Cayman.

I think long term, either South America drops the level of crime considerably and becomes the new place to be or China start building futuristic cities attracting wealthy western talent to offset their declining population rate.

Just switch to Kagi. Google is, alas, over.

As of this morning I have fully deGoogled my laptop. Kagi, Firefox, Infomaniak kSuite. Based on my research, with more than 500GB of storage needs kSuite is the only Google Suite replacement with a competitive offer. Proton seems to only offer additional storage space in the form of 500GB per business account for 11 EUR a month. This is like 4-5 times the Google price. mailbox.org Premium is €0.20 per 5GB or €40 per TB per month. For Standard it's double. kSuite is 6.58 EUR a month for 3TB so I went with them. Signup was not smooth but once that was done it is actually working quite well. One snag: be careful with your domain transfer, back up your existing zone file before transferring, I've not considered this but your old provider will delete the records.

I personally find it "sort of" funny how nvidia is caught between what they need for gamers and what they need for IA, and how they're trying to pull all the tricks to not have their gamer cards eat up their "AI enthousiast" cards sales.

Absurd pricing, ridiculous vram offering, I'm sure they're trying very hard to find a way to stop AI like SD or LLMs to run on their gamer cards at this point.

It's reached a point where not only has ATI/AMD essentially caught up to them in rasterization, but they're frankly a better offer at every price point against the 4XXX generation for pure gaming, with only DLSS and brand recognition keeping nvidia ahead.

The scope/scale of the Edmonton LRT in 1981 was tiny...a single leg starting from downtown past our two stadiums (football & hockey) and finally to a neighborhood in the northeast. Primarily built to coincide with the 1978 Commonwealth Games.

If I remember correctly fares ranged somewhere between 35-65 cents in those days.
