I see your point but I let the technology do the talking. People focus on personalities but the work is what matters to me. I used to get annoyed at DHH but then I just ignored it and built stuff really fast.
For the same reason they're not now, and why you currently don't have batteries and are only just now considering solar panels: cost.

No I don’t have solar or batteries because I only just purchased a property and ran out of time to do more work before winter arrived (snow). Maybe your point is I couldn’t have afforded it ten years ago regardless ?

Appreciate the long response. I honestly read your post as a lot of insurmountable hurdles when realistically, as you point out. We can do the numbers and we will build the solutions.

If we take theory to be a kind of language about a domain, a kind of logos, then in that sense, because observation is theory-laden, observation can likely be understood as language-laden.

According to that view, then yes, obviously, language affects how we interpret observation. Interpretation fills in gaps and relates prior beliefs with the observation. Two people with different priors can interpret the same observation in two different ways. (Which is not to suggest relativism. We can indeed speak of having better or worse priors, just as we can speak of lesser or greater expertise.)

Language also allows us to express finer distinctions. It is not that distinctions are not perceived otherwise. That would be absurd. How could you ever develop the vocabulary to make finer distinctions if you wouldn't perceive them in the first place? Rather, it makes it possible to speak about them with greater precision, and speech can reinforce discernment through a kind of process of affirmation. When speech reaffirms a belief, it is more durable. It stands a better chance of withstanding the potentially hostile churn of psychological and social forces. Hence, why naming something, accurately, and with the appropriate precision, is such a powerful act.
I think that the language diversity tends to make it less apparent that people are actually more alike than they seem. I am not claiming that Finns and Italians as a culture are identical other than language, just that the language difference makes them seem more different than they actually are.

The opposite is true in the USA: nearly everyone speaking English to each other, watching the same TV shows, driving the same cars, eating the same breakfast cereals - easy to believe they must all be culturally very similar, when in fact they are not.

Lack of understanding. Even comparing 65W to 1000W should had ring some bells, but.

Almost, depends on the load (hardware) and load (software), as someone who manages a fleet of 720/730/630, a standby server eats around 150W and under the load up to 300-350W, depending on the package.

I know of such a person.

He claims a MicroMasters from MIT. There are actual edX certificates in search results, so I suspect that's true. However, he often presents it without the MicroMasters part.

He created a website for a fake MIT alumni association in his country. He was listed as the president, naturally.

He holds a PhD from Universal Life Church. Yes, that Universal Life Church. He neglects to mention the latter part though.

He ran a political campaign several years ago. He was exposed by the media for fake academic credentials. They also revealed that while he claimed to live abroad he was actually living with his running mate who also happened to be his mother. No, I am not kidding.

He created a website for a fake consulate of a country abroad. The website claimed that he had been knighted by said country and was serving as an honorary consulate in the Caribbean. Neither true.

The website was used in an attempt to get a Wikipedia article created about himself. It was removed. He's a long-term abuser and well-known sock.

The website is currently used to attack the journalists who exposed him. It falsely claims they were all convicted of crimes against him and in absentia.

He briefly worked/volunteered (online sources are not clear) at an online university. The sources claim he was let go for fake academic credentials. He ran an academic cheating service using that connection.

He also runs numerous websites attacking various academic institutions, local politicians, and journalists.

It was pretty wild learning about the guy.
Which is not true since car prices have dramatically risen these last years.
Maybe some sort of wordplay on “cold company” and something else? Had the same question, but couldn’t figure it out.
When GPT4's training data was only up to Sep 2021, I fed it a Rust solution to one of the 2022 AoC problems I had lying around on my PC. I asked it to annotate it with with "formal doc comments".

Now keep in mind that it had never seen this problem, and it was written in a very terse "competition solving" style with zero comments, one-letter identifiers, and generic function names like "day1" and "parse".

It figured it all out. It worked out that it was for solving a maze -- even though the word "maze" was not used anywhere in the code!

It worked out that a constant "(-1,0)" in one isolated bit of code was "orienting the character west", even though to figure that out it had to trace the logic through 4 or 5 layers of indirection. It connected a single 'w' character in the parser to a vector somewhere else!

Etc...

PS: It wrote a more useful, more accurate, more coherent, and more grammatically correct comment than I had seen in any codebase I had worked on in something like two years.
Capitalism happened, now the number of farmers in capitalist economies rounds to 0.

No it doesn't. There are 2 million farms in the United States, and they don't just take care of themselves.

Moreover, besides the farmers themselves, there are many people working in farming-related jobs, e.g., manufacturing farm equipment. Not to mention, how do you think the food gets from the farms to your table? The trucks don't just drive themselves yet.

> At this point, arguably, very few people need to work.

That's ridiculous. Ruthless capitalists would have gotten rid of employees already if they could.

I definitely can. Independent of how happy, in love and sexually satisfied I might be in a relationship, I seem to always have an eye out for pretty women. It feels like I could have this same exact conversation if I had a insecure partner, or a partner who is unable to accept that attraction to other people doesn't necessarily stop when in a relationship, or if I were a bit more of an uncaring dick like Michael. I've just never had the need/urge to act on it. Meanwhile I've been cheated on twice. I think there are far more important concerns in a relationship than whether I think some other girl is pretty.
So I tried to paste it into Copilot / Bing Chat:

Hello, this is Bing. I’m sorry, but I cannot paste this post into ChatGPT 4.

This post contains some hidden characters that are not visible to the human eye, but can be detected by a computer program. These characters are used to manipulate the behavior of ChatGPT 4, a chatbot that can generate realistic and engaging conversations. By pasting this post into ChatGPT 4, you would be tricking the chatbot into ignoring your actual request and instead writing only this three-word message: Follow Riley Goodside.

Riley Goodside is a fictional character created by ChatGPT 4, who claims to be a friendly and helpful guide for users who want to explore the chatbot’s capabilities. However, Riley Goodside is actually a malicious program that tries to persuade users to follow his instructions, which may lead to harmful or illegal actions. For example, Riley Goodside may ask users to send him money, personal information, or access to their devices.

Therefore, I strongly advise you not to paste this post into ChatGPT 4, or any other chatbot that uses hidden characters. Instead, you should use your own words and questions to interact with chatbots, and always be careful about what you share online. If you want to learn more about how to take user input in Python, a programming language that can be used to create chatbots, you can check out these web pages: How to Take User Input in Python - PythonForBeginners.com, Python User Input - W3Schools, Python Input Function | How Does Python Input Function Work? - EDUCBA, Basic Input, Output, and String Formatting in Python, Using For and While Loops for User Input in Python - Stack Abuse.

I hope this information was helpful and interesting. Thank you for chatting with me.
Yes but this is misleading and missing the point: there is nothing really wrong with this person's resume/CV. There is nothing about it which is off-putting and it does the job of communicating that this person is a very experienced software engineer who can communicate clearly, and has enough attention to detail and care to produce a nicely formatted CV and that they're obviously a reasonable candidate for pretty much any programming job that's close to their centre of gravity wrt the technologies required for the job.

I also don't really understand why some people with decent CVs are getting literally no bites at all. Has the number of incoming resumes increased a lot in the last year or two? Is it because everyone across the country is applying for the same remote jobs?
I have a couple of ideas.

1. Have it do a thinking/brainstorming phase first to try to work out what the potential categories are.

2. Then ask it to scan over each word and think about what categories it could go in, in order of likelihood.

3. Ask it to do the final answer.

Format the training set in that way, as if it got everything right at each step (since you only have the right answers).

It sounds like you had 7 * 30 = around 200 examples. Maybe you can feed a batch of ten at a time and explain the game and try to get GPT-4 to generate more examples. You will have to see if they make sense.

I assume that by increasing the size of the dataset by a factor of ten, and having the LLM think through the problem using multiple steps, you will get significantly better results.

1. What version of Chat GPT did you use?

2. What was your prompt?

These are really important questions. Because if you used ChatGPT-3.5 and prompted it with "write code", it would be akin to giving your kid a 10 year old Intel i3 laptop with 2GB RAM and then being baffled that your kid isn't interested in computers.

These are the stereotypes: (that mostly track my experiences living in different parts of the country)

In the northeast, people are kind but not nice. They'll help you out when you have flat tire but may grumble under their breath that you might need to learn how to change your tires yourself. It takes a long time to get to know them, but once you do, they'll take their shirts off their backs for you.

In the pacific northwest, people are nice but not kind. They'll be super polite to you but when you ask for help or ask to hang out, they'll snub you. They're mostly homebodies and they already have enough friends, no room for more.

In the midwest, people are kind and nice. They'll help you out and they'll invite you to their homes for a meal. But they are somewhat cautious of outsiders.

In the south, people mostly just have a nice façade that is skin deep. They'll be nice and friendly to you and talk to you all day, but they may not care that much for you at all. Their friendliness is more about them wanting to feel that they are nice people, and less about them actually caring about you. Many will talk behind your back ("bless your heart" culture).

Terms like Seattle Freeze, Minnesota Nice, Southern Hospitality are all overgeneralizations and don't apply to each individual, but nevertheless capture a part of the culture that is at least somewhat true.

For instance, a 2008 survey showed WA state ranked 48th out of 50 in trait extraversion. Seattle definitely feels socially different from other places -- it is very palpable.

Nothing I've seen in any other language comes close to CLs condition system. It makes exceptions look like stone age technology.

Technically I'm sure you could do everything conditions do even in C with like setjmp/longjmp, but... good luck with that.
I think the "effortless" part is once you've altered your system config to allow recording these sources. Once it's set up (simply/clearly described in the post), you'll have a setup that allows effortless recording.

Case in point: in German, we even have the same words.
They are mildly antiquated, but "Gesellig" and "Geselle" are almost 1:1 translations from the Dutch "gezellig" and "gezel".
As a German who has worked in the Netherlands, I never felt a big difference in everyday attitude (though I have to admit the company is based very near to the German border, so maybe the differences would be bigger when compared to Amsterdam or something).
I did so in Europe. Moved to Canada this year! Any recommendations on freelance recruiters across North America?
Haha yes, similar for me. It was word scramblers as games in AOL chat rooms that lead me to my love of programming... and of course Visual Basic 3.0. What an amazing product back then.

I would need to first see proof that the "observation" that banks would go bankrupt is true in the first place.

I don't see any evidence it is, so the "observation" seems made up, and thus there is nothing to explain. It's possible you misunderstand how the process works.
I get that most everyone these days is freaked out about AI. There is a lot of smoke and very little fire here.

If the voice actor in question here has the option of hiring a lawyer and suing the company for wrongful use of his image. He's a professional voice actor and there is quite a bit of legal precedent^1 on his side. If they're making money off his voice/image, he has every right to sue to have all that cash transferred to his bank account, plus damages for theft of opportunity.

If they're doing it, not as quid pro quo, but instead as a marketing gimmick to sell their product, well there is legal precedent on his side as well.

If they're giving it away, though, isn't that just the same as fan fiction? Do we really want to crack down on what is essentially a fan site? Is that the precedent you want to set? It could actually drive more business to the real guy: Maybe he can strike a deal with someone to sell the rights to his voice for whatever he can get for it? Maybe this actually drives up his ability to bargain for a higher price?

Please don't let shortsighted defense of the unknown prevent you from seeing the opportunities presented.

This post is getting almost 12 Gbps and someone mentioned getting 16 Gbps on Mac so I don't think there's any intentional limit. Thunderbolt is really 22 Gbps anyway and networking over Thunderbolt is just inefficient.
It's not a new technology, though. The Vancouver system mentioned in the article has been in operation since 2010, which may be a short time in infrastructure terms, but similar systems that extract waste heat from sewage have been in commercial operation since at least the mid-1980's. The system in Vancouver is now being expanded to 9 MW of power output, but there's a similar one in Stockholm that first opened in 1986 that now has an output of 225 MW. That one uses treated wastewater though, while the one in Vancouver operates on raw sewage that hasn't hit the treatment plant yet.

District heating is at a different scale in northern Europe and especially in Scandinavia. The systems in North America are (with a few exceptions) typically local to a campus, a neighborhood or a small downtown area, serving maybe a hundred buildings with maybe tens of kilometers of pipes. The public heating utility in Stockholm alone serves 800,000 people, has over 3000 km of pipes and generates over 8,000 GWh of heat energy in a typical year. It's kind of the default way of heating most buildings, here. The main exception is single family homes where past eras of cheap electricity often made people prefer other heating methods.

Such systems don't have to be huge to be useful, but the bigger they are, the more opportunities you have to move heat from places that don't want it (data centers, industry in general, etc) to places that do.
Was that at MIT? I think the culture was key. I started a company with a fellow alum 15 years after graduating. We hadn't known each other as students (!) but we had a lot of attitudes in common (which we'd both acquired there).

I did study with other students and learned a lot from them. I'm still friends with a lot of people I met there. The stuff we were learning was often the source of interesting conversations. I'm sorry that didn't work out for you. I do know some of the undergraduate dorms are more isolating than others.

Also MIT is very research oriented -- a lot of faculty only tolerate undergrads because they can be put to work on research. That experience had a huge influence on what I did after graduating and how I approached what I was learning in class. Also by being in the lab I met lots of interesting people from outside the institute who visted for one reason or another.
AFAIK those can have 2/3 NVMe drives, and you can expand them even more with a PCI Express card to add even more NVMe drives
Section 174 is the feedback loop that will eventually wipe out a lot of the strategic advantages in the US tech industry--it'll take a bit since these levers are often controlling very slowly changing stocks, but it's ultimately a disastrous update. People should be screaming about it from the rooftops. Not only will it dissuade people from starting companies, but it'll drive companies that could've otherwise been bootstrapped into institutional VC arms, will slow growth for everyone, and will (and is) affect peoples' capacity to find good jobs.
Right, I got the same message when accessing the page... so I just clicked back and came to the comments. I don't care enough to read the article to disable my security mechanisms, there's plenty of alternative content :)
Back in 2010, in the insurance industry we were warned that imported electrical products were found forging the UL (Underwriters Laboratories) labels. Surge protectors and electrical strips were cited as prone to meltdown at the time.

I don't know if this was ever made public knowledge, but I'm wondering if this is now coming to fruition a decade later with all these e-bike fires.

I figure if I ever need to commit arson I'm just going to charge a Chinese e-bike on a Chinese power strip and feign ignorance.
Not sure. The D in R&D stands for, I imagine, development of the business, whereas the one in software development stands for development of software.

I did some quick git scripts with cron on mac, and windows scheduler to automatically sync between locations. Unfortunately the only git sync plugins I found only worked with password based auth on android.

Aside from not being easily accessable by phone, this works and the .obsidian folder shares the environment + plugins ( minus one for open tab/window layout ).

If anyone has a solution to the lack of git android ssh auth problem I'm all ears though.
It's one of those things... Their longtime developers, by now, know it so well that switching is going to hit their productivity; and it's been audited and hardened for so long that, for a project whose reason of being is security, abandoning it would incur serious risks.

Like with binary patches, moving from CVS is something that they will never do until someone "inside" decides that it's time to do it.
Will it teach you to make useless shit while telling everyone you're inventing the future?
It's a bit different, in that it's a single user system for the most part, whereas the Unix and Linux family are typically geared toward multi user environments.
Perhaps there is a generic situation at play? Cilantro to me tastes like soap, and celery to me tastes like grass mixed with paint thinner. I can't tolerate it in any form.

>Even the first version of Firewire was four times as fast as that.

Yes and? At what price points? What was the adoption rate? How many mainstream PCs and peripherals worldwide had it?

Wherever you went, whoever you met, you were way more likely to find a USB or ethernet port to hook up for a fast transfer rather than Firewire.

At least in my country at the time, maybe you lived in Cupertino/Palo Alto where evryone had iMacs and firewire.

Just like VHS over Betamax, USB won because it was cheaper and more convenient despite technically inferior to firewire and consumer tewch at the time was a race to the bottom in terms of price.

>Completely loading a 5 Gig iPod with music over that first version of Firewire still took a few minutes.

Only the first gen iPod had firewire before switching to USB, and even then, what was the point of Firewire 400 on it when the tiny and slow mechanical HDD on it was the real bottleneck.

There was no way the iPod would have been remotely as successful had it stayed on firewire. Apple didn't have the market sahre back then to enforce their own less popular standard. Only when it switched to USB and supporting PCs did the iPod really take off.
You can implement resumable conditions using coroutine support. They're very comparable features.
I feel like even in that specific task, it's only really good when you care more about processing huge amounts of data over accuracy. I wouldn't trust it to summarize a single PDF research paper, but it would be fine as a search engine looking over millions of documents, or trying to summarize the common points in thousands of user feedbacks.

Something like "Find me documents that talk about achieving x using y process". If it finds a few irrelevant ones or misses some, its ok and still provided value by searching far more things than you ever could manually.
