Thanks for the article. But then it points to the Betacel, USA 1970s (60 pacemakers implanted by 1973).

Both! I started my professional career in the year 2000 where I learned how to be resourceful. In the 2010s this positioned me to “do more with less” while still cashing in on the overall prosperity and bigger budgets. Now that belts are tightening again, my experience sets me apart from anyone under 35 in tech who spent their entire career in an unprecedented bull market.

Not just that, but it basically makes the library incompatible with serverside rendering a la Next.js. We actually explored using Shoelace for a project but ended up having to choose something else instead because of this.

"metadata" is data that describes other data.

I would guess a "metarepo" is a repo that contains other repos.

Why would you want this? It's an alternative to monorepos or hacky homegrown solutions for managing related repos.
Spreads via password authenticated SSH, which is the first thing you disable when you set up an SSH server. Doesn't hide its CPU usage. Does a few mildly crafty things to prevent reverse engineering, but overall this "worm" just seems like it's picking low-hanging fruit.

> Arguably much of SaaS just is that.

Yep - at a previous job I think there was some expensive tool that would never have been approved, but someone decided to buy it from AWS Marketplace instead where it was just a rounding error in the total monthly AWS spend.
imo "growth" basically means a company is able to profit from mining "reality". their alpha or edge is having the know-how to be at this cutting edge.

in such an environment, "truth" matters a lot because it allows more efficient interfacing with reality.

without growth, managing perception becomes more important than truth. this leads to zero-sum politics exacerbated by things like mortgage payments and visa status.

everyone is trying to get into AI companies these days b/c they seem like the only companies that can still profit off of "playfulness" while all other cultures are becoming very Serious.

instead of just doing things or solving problems, every action and message has to jump through a bunch of "what will X think" hoops which is demoralizing.
The table version sounded interesting until I looked at the dimensions. 22" is way too low to be useful as anything besides a bedside table. Anywhere slse I'd describe it as more of a tripping hazard. That's lower than the seat height of a lot of chairs. A typical table is more like 30-32".
What "one power source" do you think they're arguing against? The person you're replying to has noted that renewables are diverse and abundant, while refuting the notion that coal is important to the US because of its abundance because it's less abundant than many other sources of energy.

I think that is a bit of an apples to oranges comparison. Coke does brand management. They are not necessarily educating folks to their existence.

But, the real difference is that Coke is, in fact, selling their own brand and products. For Netflix, they are largely selling access to other people's products. In a very real way, Netflix found an arbitrage opportunity for viewing movies. With how poorly the content owners calculated things, they got good deals at the beginning so that they could do well on their investment in the CDN infrastructure so that they could deliver a good experience to users with minimal unit costs.

This is, in a large sense, why Netflix is having to raise prices now. The content owners are starting to demand more money for that access, driving up their unit costs. Combined with a draught of original content, expect that they will lose access to their own productions in time. You can already see this with the likes of Daredevil.
The future is here! Internet money for all.
> None can say Bitcoin is a fraud

Sure I can; Bitcoin ETFs are an investment in regulated exchanges, not the Blockchain itself. The existence of a Bitcoin ETF is not a de-facto endorsement of Bitcoin's ideals any more than other regulated investments are representative of their assets.

Ah, moralism.
I'm not calling their concerns illegitimate, heck I probably agree with most of them. Some people are way too happy to record everything and use it however they like, even suggesting the recordings should be used to to blame pilots (!).

They deserve to put forward their concerns regarding the use of the recordings. They may have to concede the point on the length of the recording though, that one is hard to justify if it impacts a legitimate and reasonable investigation. And if these recordings are abused then their length is not the most damaging aspect.

For my part, I have an LLC that is not an S Corp. The reason is that you have to pay yourself a wage, and programmer wages are R&D. I think the rules were changed recently such that R&D can't be fully expensed.

Note that the same is for gold. Most people own gold ETFs, not physical gold, and most gold’s value is speculation (not industrial use).

My experience putting together https://chat.openai.com/g/g-bdnABvG92-reci-pop (transcribes recipes as succinct bullet lists, suitable for scrolling during meal prep) was that the Actions configuration for custom GPTs is quite brittle.

OpenAI has implemented controls to stop the model from adding hallucinated parameters to an action payload... but this results in user-facing failures.

I initially worked around the user-facing failures by wrapping the entire payload in a {"request": {... payload}} structure (which helps because the controls only perform a shallow check ).

It is frustrating that users have no way to view the action response, even though users can view the action request. Not infrequently, the model will take an essentially empty or irrelevant response and silently ignore it, hallucinating an answer as though the response had been informative... so it's hard for users to trust what they see in the generated output.

It would be so easy to enable a toggle for users to inspect the response, but I think the OpenAI team wants to somehow "protect" the IP or internal decisions of custom GPT "creators. It would at least be nice to have a toggle for developers who don't feel proprietary about those details. And maybe a fork button :-)

When losing weight, about 75% fat and 25% muscle is lost, with a ton of variables being in there (exercise routine, how much muscle you have, what your diet looks like, etc).

Lots of arguments about what diets maintain the most muscle (e.g. fasting people say they keep the most muscle, and as much as I love fasting, plenty of studies say that is probably not true.)

Well yes, except that the backup system happens to be already built. There's definitely a maintenance cost associated with this, and long-term (beyond the lifetime of existing stations) this wouldn't make any sense. But in the short-term the costs associated with this are relatively low.

EU's open source tool to evaluate website privacy
There's a strong case to be made that MBAs, specifically the business, financial, and economic scholarship undergirding elite MBA programs, truly are the root cause.
Profit motives aren't stronger today than yesterday, and prior generations of business leaders and investors weren't more altruistic than today. What changed were the business and financial narratives regarding how best to successfully operate a business and make investments. Those newer narratives were more sophisticated and more grounded in empirical analysis, but just like older wisdoms they also incorporated many subjective, normative preferences and assumptions. It's those latter aspects, including a laissez-faire, libertarian, "greed is good" perspective, that seems to be largely responsible for many of the broader patterns we see today. People aren't more greedy today than yesterday, but there's less (both intentional and accidental) channeling of long-term thinking. The "greed is good" narrative says, among other things, that long-term profit maximization is best achieved by relentless short-term profit maximization.

The perspective at the center of MBA programs is also easily identifiable in popular political culture, but it originated in economic and legal scholarship and spread through conservative political circles before ultimately coloring and shaping much of modern American culture, conservative and liberal, today. MBA programs were one of the earliest and most important conduits for the spread of these new perspectives into the broader culture.
Agreed. But that's a weight *loss* issue.

The more basic "Why has there been a rise in obesity?" keeps being asked, and that's already answered.

The idea that people are falling asleep next to a pod and waking up with too much weight for some mysterious reason is a false narrative. It's not making anyone any more aware or any healthier.

That's like Robinhood users telling me they pay zero trading fees. Then how does RobbingHood make money?

Think about it, running an exchange has costs. I really don't understand how people can be so easily tricked by "free" offers that are actually more expensive when you do the math. PFOF (i.e. legal theft), unfavorable spread, etc... They get their money one way or another. It can technically make sense when you're trading something like $50 worth of a stock, because of course that would not be reasonable with a brokerage using a traditional fee structure. But frankly trading such low figures is silly. You have to invest a lot of time (=money) in research when stock picking, else you're guaranteed to lose sooner or later. But the reward simply isn't there. Even if you make 100% profit you now have $100. Better put that money into an index fund savings plan and forget about active trading. You're guaranteed to receive a better reward on your investment just getting a part time job selling fast food or something like that.
This is something I've said repeatedly in other places and this is a certain segment of people who can't understand it.

CICO is, especially at the population level, terrible dieting advice. We have decades of experience and oodles of research showing that, as advice it does not work.

However, it is, as you point out, basically tautologically true/correct. For CICO to _not_ be correct would essentially be breaking physics and generating mass/energy from nothing.

Yes, your body can change it's energy expenditure in response to dieting, but this is accounted for in the CO part of CICO. If you consume fewer calories than your body expends (in all the myriad of ways that your body can/does expend calories), then you _must_ lose weight.

The fact that CICO is true does not make it good advice but the fact that it's bad advice doesn't make it false.

I guess this reasoning could make sense to you if you never consider what animals eat nor how many habitats are destroyed to farm animals and grow cropland for them. For example, 80% of soy is grown to be fed to animals.

A diet of plants causes the fewest animals to be killed: https://animalvisuals.org/projects/1mc/

Of course, I don't think anyone who brings up crop deaths actually cares about animals dying since they never change their diet after being corrected. Their motive is to absolve themselves of moral responsibility, not genuine concern for animal lives.

regarding how the SEC circumvents the 7th amendment in how they fine people

regarding whether Congress even delegated that discretion to the SEC whether the 7th amendment circumvention stands or not

and regarding whether their in-house, on-staff, judges can be exempt from removal

there are plenty more deeper questions to bring before the supreme court, about this specific agency. this SCOTUS has expressed interest in taking out the remaining vestiges of the New Deal, which were mostly found unconstitutional in the late 1930s, with the remaining things simply being difficult to find standing for - hard to take to court. The SEC's main behaviors being one of those things. this SCOTUS has expressed interest in how the interstate commerce clause is interpreted at all, which is also a core tenant of the New Deal. Could possibly reshape our entire relationship with the Federal Government. The SEC would take the biggest L while the capital markets would be fine.
Useless for me then. With TT, I’m usually done with my (relatively complex) taxes in 10 mins. It would take many hours without auto imports.

I think there are worse ideas than cloning your data into a population of tardigrades using an error-correcting code, and then dehydrating them into the tun state. Not nearly the density of raw dry DNA (which itself can be stabilized using trehalose or PVA) but tardigrade tuns can resist harsh environments for ~millenia.

Damn and I thought it had ended. I think both it and Curb Your Enthusiasm are excellent comedy shows.

Have you watched Gomorrah? Top tier Italian crime drama, although it kinda drops off after season 3 from what I recall.
(Not the poster you’re asking)

What sort of thing are you into? What are some movies you really like? Would help to tune any suggestions.

[edit] Meanwhile, some shots in the dark:

- The Green Knight — Based on the story by the Pearl Poet and expanded and adapted with a combo of other Arthurian tales and the filmmakers’ own twists. Basically, a lonely, somewhat psychedelic (but not in a bright-kaleidoscope-colors sort of way…) dark fantasy journey with tasteful hints of dozens of influences adorning it. A great Winter watch, too. Benefits from the best screen and system you can get in front of.

- You Won’t Be Alone — Broadly horror-themed but not in a Hollywood monster movie or Halloween popcorn muncher sort of way. It’s not really aiming for scares, exactly. Comically similar themes and message to a major widely-lauded off-kilter film from the same year (2022) but approached from a very different angle. Macedonian language. You may worry in the first twenty minutes that you’ve stumbled into the Easter European Indie Movie Doldrums of Mediocrity, but persevere, it starts to come together and develop purpose before long. Hard recommend for fans of The Witch who liked the “historically accurate” grossness & mythology of that film, but it’s not as firmly in the horror genre as that was.

On the lighter (and not quite as good, good) side:

- The Kid Detective — Semi-comedy. Imagine the stereotypical middle-aged guy who’s never topped their time as a high school quarterback. Now imagine if instead of playing football, they were a kid detective (you know, Nancy Drew sorts of stuff) and that is the thing they peaked at in high school. That’s our protagonist. Film sags at times but the premise is so fun and relatively-well-used that it’s still a good time, if that blurb above piqued your interest at all. Certainly a sort of noir, with all that entails, so if Your Hero getting his ass kicked more than doing the ass kicking bothers you, avoid (as with lots of noirs)

- Spontaneous — Dark high school romance-comedy. Also, people, all over the place, have started occasionally suddenly exploding for no evident reason. That’s the movie’s deal. It took me embarrassingly long to realize what it was really about (or, at least a major one of the things it’s about) and it punched me in the damn gut when I did. Oof.

I got one of these as well, and I recommend them with the extra carbon filter. Very, very nice thing to have in a kitchen, if you're a smoker or if you have cats. The carbon filter takes out a lot of nasty smells, enough to not smell anything food-y even in a directly adjacent room while running a frying pan and chopping onions, or when smoking a cigarette on the open window. And the "plain" filter picks up a loooot of the fur that you'd find everywhere including in your food when your cat decides it's time to go and shed everywhere she can.
Yeah, for sure. No need to put in your two weeks notice or whatever just to get out of there right away. Usually there's a bit of a breather after that first wave of cuts, enough time for you to look and interview elsewhere.

I think part of the reason why they said that is it's best to leave at this time (i.e. start whatever process you need to do to leave) because you'll have the most time to look and interview for a good next job before things start to get worse at your current job, or before you might get axed in the possible next wave and possibly need to take whatever crap gets offered to you just to get a paycheck again.
Sure. That sucks. But so does diabetes, strokes, heart attacks, and premature death.
