For simple dishes do people still do Mis-en-place? You need to warm up the oil anyways, why not have it warm while you chop stuff?
If you have too much inflammation and if you have a stressor that causes cortisol to go up, like lifting, the conversion of T4 to T3 may be disrupted and you have too much reverse T3 instead. This causes hypothyroidism two days later.

Easy test is to take T3 (liothyronine sodium) on such a day. See if you feel better.

> Simple responses should be generated truthfully. Truth which is present in today's data.

Why would you rely on current LLM and -adjacent tech image generation to give you this? The whole point is to be creative and provide useful hallucinations.

We have existing sources that provide accurate and correct info in a deterministic way.
Agree but we are pretty much spot on in woke mccarthyism territory, which used to be widely understood as a bad thing.
painkillers aren't even an option anymore either, unless you're older (by that I mean 60+), and even then a lot of doctors are adopting policies of "we never prescribe narcotics"
I mean his working setup is not interesting, and not even the basic standard.

For $500 on amazon one can get a decent sit stand desk (not the thing that sets on a desk, that's not nearly as ergonomic), a under desk treadmill or stair stepper, several monitors and a stand. It would be better than his setup.

To me, this blog post is a microcosm of his broader work.
This doesn't mean anything if you think deeper. What if the original "7 nm" name was inaccurate and "4" is more representative of the process's performance?
Late to the party but I am so in love with that logo. And every other bit of this.
On one side, yes, great.

On the other side: more notifications while driving? No, thanks - bad for safety, likely to be very annoying, and extremely likely to be coopted by adsense ("did you know? Just 1 mile ahead you'll find the newest McDonald's in the city...")
No, TOTP is far more secure because it has no dependence on a third-party who can mess up in many ways (Denial of service like in this case by being unavailable, Impersonation by allowing SIM swaps or intercepting messages directly).

You fully control how to store the TOTP seed and how you compute the value, so it is far more secure.

Yes, it can be phished if you fall for that, but it removes several attack vectors.
I don't think it even technically works as well as before. The iOS app seems mostly fine, but on web the feed or tweet fails to load and shows the blue retry button probably 1/3rd of the time for me now. Combined with all the bot issues you mentioned, that has dramatically reduced my Twitter usage. It's become incredibly frustrating to use. I only use it now when I click on a tweet link that's been shared with me.
But when we talk about specifically harming one person, does it really matter if it's a thousand different generations of the same thing or 10 generations that were copied thousands of times? It is a technology that lowers the bar for generating believable-looking things, but I don't know if it's the speed that is the main culprit here.

And in fairness to generative AI, even nowadays it feels like getting to a point of true photorealism takes some effort, especially if the goal is letting it just run nonstop with no further curation. And getting a local image generator to run at all on your computer (and having the hardware for it) is also a bar that plenty of people can't clear yet. Photoshop is kind of different in that making more believable things requires a lot more time, effort and knowledge - but the idea that any image online can be faked has already been ingrained in the public consciousness for a very long time.

Impossible with 300+ people in the org, and the expectation that everyone is available during work hours.

It's best to assume that not every workplace functions in a way compatible with this universal "let's turn off Slack and only check it once an hour" scenario. Also, these decisions cannot be made on an individual basis -- that's the best way to get fired -- but everyone else must be on board, at least your immediate peers. If you're not their boss, and they don't see the benefit, this will gain no traction.

The reality is that no, not everyone can remove Slack notifications and only check it once an hour or whatever.
White is a pretty complex and non-obvious category.
Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Denver, Miami, Salt Lake City, Seattle, and Portland are similarly desolate in this way
I didn't worry. Even took a trip to a different country. Though I can totally understand why some people (know you're joking) might have played it more conservatively.

Haha... Oh, this reminds me... there's Ada mode for Emacs that functions like that. In order to build it you need to combine multiple branches that have each its own contents (i.e. it's essentially multiple repositories combined in one) in the same checkout. It's the most bizarre way to use Git I've seen in my life (outside of total noob stuff, like when a guy wrote his entire project in .gitignore)

On a more serious note: thanks. I see now what that means. Maybe I should find time to look more into the project!
I worked at Twitter and let me tell you that's not how it works. When you whack most of the engineers out of the company, and if it still continues to work, that doesn't mean you don't need that many engineers. It means the following:

1. The ones remaining are practically working 24x7 every day for essentially the same pay, with the promise of more.

2. You keep falling behind on all the things you need to do to keep things alive and compliant. This eventually comes back in the form of outages or worse, FTC fines.

3. There is very little room for forward looking work, which means you are sacrificing opportunities for growth. E.g.

> 325 million active users in 2015 and it's still about 300 million active users today

These were two very different numbers. The numbers in 2015 were DAUs and the numbers today are mDAU. mDAU are in layman terms users that can be monetized. This number was ~180M in 2018, so the growth was there. Part of the reason why the ad revenue was growing for Twitter during that phase.

4. Safety and Trust on the platform drops quite a bit when you are understaffed. Regardless of your political beliefs or whether you're team Elon, when there are 10 people banning CP instead of 100, there is no way you could argue objectively that the platform stays the same.

There's plenty of other problems, but you would not know they exist unless you're one of the people left after the figurative massacre.
In 2015, why would anyone have believed AMD could catch up to Intel? Let's not forget that the Bulldozer/Excavator days are not that long ago, and those chips were even less competitive in 2011-2016 than Intel's current offerings are in 2024. I think we can confidently say that bigger architectural gaps have been closed before.

Comparing Intel to other fabs, it's uglier, sure. The Krzanich years were characterized by over-promising and under-delivering, and Intel isn't far enough removed from that period for trust to be rebuilt. That said, they have shrunk the process gap over the last couple years, even if the gap isn't entirely closed.

Given the firehose of government money being directed at domestic manufacturing right now, I assume Intel is doing fine on the "shitloads of money" front.

I don't think Intel is a favorite to be the world's process leader by 2025, but it's reasonable to think they could get close. I don't think the doom-and-gloom perspective is well-founded at all.
I see TSMC and Intel cost structures all the time...they run fabs very differently and the costs are no where near close to each other. When running a foundry the main component of being competitive is price and yield. Intel will struggle with both...mark my words.
Yes, if you could Photoshop 10/sec it would be a problem.

Think of it this way, if one out of every ten phone calls you get is spam, you still have a pretty useable phone. Three orders of magnitude different and 1 out of every 100 calls is real and the system totally breaks down.

Generative AI makes generating realistic looking fakes ~1000x easier, its the one thing its best at.
Except TSA security theater. They see their budgets grow and seen as essential, for preventing problems that never happened.

But in this case, if those problems were to happen, they wouldn't be stopped by their measures.
Thanks for writing this. I'm sorry you have to deal with it. I have something similar: once I lift hard enough when [re-]starting lifting, I get a big emotional hangover the next day or so as well. Feels like a truck hit me, basically. No amount of food, hydration, sleep, or anything stops it.

It might be comorbid with my hypermobility, but who knows. I basically expect it to happen at this point and just plan to lay low for 48 hrs.
I think it's legible. I'd definitely write/say that way.

A guy who no one knew anything about until he got arrested, who said “Women are like dogs, you have to treat them like you would treat a dog. Every woman responds well to a violent physical encounter.”, who doxxed and stalked journalists in Ukraine and pushed obvious Russian propaganda while living in the country they were invading? Yes, I can understand why there's little outpouring of sympathy for him, at least from the mainstream media and government. There's plenty of sympathy for him from other powerful Western figures though!
Why would that mean they are confident? You always get customers ready before the technology is ready...you think TSMC doesn't have 2nm customers lined up already?
Except you were "enriching shareholders" before. How did Reddit become so valuable and earn so much revenue in the first place?
Simply because the impact never happens instantly. Companies life span is different than humans, and just because you didn’t see it happening in the coming months right after they did, it doesn’t mean there’s no gradual decline, keep in mind this also does not account the gradual hiring after that event, they news will be reported that they terminated 10%, but who’s going to report a 1% hiring every month in the year after?
It turned out the distribution (and to some extent, ownership) problems eclipsed every other problem in software. This is why the web won, because it solves distribution and ownership immediately.

The trade-off was/is that building software as easily as late 90's desktop applications is extremely difficult to do on the web; in fact, we're still not there. Surprisingly, no-one has made a Delphi (or Access) clone that runs on the web. It seems like we're getting there, but incredibly slowly and only asymptotically approaching that experience.

On the bright-side, webapps have invented some novel and useful ways of writing applications that are in some ways superior to the old ways - the ideas behind React (in particular, rendering application state as a single function), or Redux (modeling application state as a monolithic, immutable object against which reducers run) may not have arisen if not for this shift. I'd also credit JavaScript with making functional programming mainstream, a great example of "worse is better".

Another part of the issue may be that younger programmers are simply not aware of the DX of building with tools like Delphi or Access. And in turn, older programmers have forgotten the headaches of dealing with closed-source tools and the distribution headaches that came with them. (And the ones who are aware are themselves unaware of the DX of building with Smalltalk.) You cannot miss what you never experienced or do not know about.
Long story short (and TMI), I had an STD (Mgen) that went undiagnosed for (what I think was) multiple years. It's basically not tested for ever. I personally had no symptoms other than being highly fatigued randomly to long periods of time. I tested positive on a panel with a urologist during a visit for something totally different, totally boring. I was given specific antibiotics (you need more than doxy for this one) and my fatigue never came back. To this day, I think all of my symptoms were by body fighting this bacteria.

At first I was pissed at all the doctors who told me it was just in my head. There was nothing wrong with me. But in the end, I came to the conclusion that they just didn't know. Which is a reality... There's just so much we don't know about the human body.
blazing! I had ye olde SSD SATA bricks in mind though.
I'm not sure what kind of "cesspool" Bluesky is, but it's unbearable. It's like 2015-era Tumblr but worse, somehow. Twitter, by contrast, feels like a breath of fresh air.
This looks superb - very timely as I have been looking for something like this recently for a project
It kind of did. There was a civil war in China, Mao pushed out all competing factions, and had complete political power.

This is a bug in a chatbot that Google fixed within a week. The only institutional rot is the fact that Google fell so far behind OpenAI in the first place.

I think the ones shrieking are those overreacting to getting pictures of Asian founders of Google.
I deployed a ML solution in Rust back in 2020 (tch-rs instead of tensorflow, though), so this has been possible for a while.

Surprisingly I saw some impressive speed gains vs python (and vs JS, tried that one as well), probably because I was running tons on images through it and the percentage of time spent doing inference wasn't very high.

Deployment wasn't the easiest, but doable.

Instead of jumping on the tensorflow or torch boat, when doing Rust today I would consider using https://github.com/huggingface/candle
The opposite. Department heads get fired for allowing blow-ups in their area, that should have been avoided. "Getting credit" means keeping the job managing the department via preventing problems.

After a couple of years on Mastodon this has just never been an issue for me.

If it is one for you, nothing stops you from using s client that supports multiple accounts.

But people banding together to not just block proven bad people (by whatever criteria) but also those who closely associate with them will happen in any federated system one way or other, because blocking at an individual level is too cumbersome.
Bit of a difference between those cities, and letchworth, which had a population of about 10,000 at the time.
Basically yes, but this is the exact reason Apple got away from Samsung making their chips. TSMC is a neutral party with reasons to keep designs secret from other customers. Intel and Samsung have competing products on the market so why would you t
That was quit the mess. Ryan Barrett is a smart guy and seems quite nice, but it was very ill-advised to unilaterally decide to build an opt-out bridge. In general, if users one platform A want their stuff to be on platform B, they'll find a way to make that happen. If someone else takes it upon themselves to copy everything from A to B, people understandably get pretty bent about it.

If it had been an opt-in system, the response would probably have been far different.

Existing services hallucinate all the time. They can't even do math reliably, nor can you be reasonably certain it can provide actual citations for any generated facts.
It's so buggy right now. It feels like it's gone back to the old fail whale days. "It works" is a pretty low bar to clear. On the upside, it gave me back a lot of free time, because the Twitter experience is just too frustrating to deal with anymore.
Not "probably". I was involved at ground level fixing code for BP in '98. Can say without a doubt that bad things would have happened. And not because my salary depended on it - there was no shortage of opportunities to work on other things, obviously. It was legitimately an issue that would have crippled the energy industry (major players, and all their many, many dependents). I infer from this experience that the impact would have been the same on many other industries (e.g. finance, resource development) directly and indirectly.

But it is a great example. I still run into people who recall Y2K as an example of much ado about nothing. No, no!! It wasn't an issue for you because many people worked hard to prevent the problems.

Those problems were not terribly complex just pervasive and critical, requiring a high LOE. It wasn't like a huge moon-landing engineering problem to be held up as some accomplishment of humanity, more akin fixing a lot of dumb Challenger o-ring problems before a blow-up.

Out of the box it is not. As root I can't read or write files that the permissions say I can, among other problems. It is still possible to disable all this but they make it more and more difficult.

If I were to bet, I'd bet that the roadmap is to eventually make OSX be iOS, where you can't do anything except what apple specifically lets you do.
Only in the strictest sense and if you assume nobody will build graphs of interactions to use to block instead.
The key here is not "a decade of improvements" but rather "can current tech be regulatory approved". The transcript provides context which is phi and invaluable. Doctors care a lot about billing codes

I'm aware of what the xylo- in xylophone means. But words mean what we use them to mean, not what pedants insist upon, and in vernacular, you're wrong, not him: the meaning of xylophone includes metallic instruments in the same style.

In musicology, sure, these distinctions are useful there. But what I want to stress is that you are wrong in this context. Not technically correct: wrong. The only mistake was you choosing to reply the way you did. It is, to be fair... a common mistake. Around here at least.

Correct. I know that there's a lot of concerns about Mv3 and I don't want to downplay them, but from a security perspective the team absolutely made the right and necessary calls that are required to prevent the (currently widespread) abuse of browser extensions for tracking and ads injection, not to mention malware distribution.

I would trust an audited, Chrome-or-Firefox-store distributed browser extension to implement end-to-end encryption. I don't think that extends to UI elements injected into the page itself though—the UI elements where you're typing your messages have to be separate from the rest of the page to prevent malicious web apps from overwriting them and capturing your input before sending it on to the extension themselves.
You're being cynical.

We used to have ambitions and utopias, as societies; we used to think the future can be whatever we want it to be, that work would be done by machines, that we would live free in our flying cars, that nobody would go hungry, etc etc.

Obviously, it didn't happen; partially because some of these ambitions were unrealistic, but partially because we simply stopped believing it was possible to live without an incessant capitalist-driven commercialization of every inch of our existence.
Interesting that you have picked EU, while sites like Twitter are already blocking or removing content on request of countries like Turkey, China or Russia.
Since (preamble) cannot possibly perform a side effect which affects the initializing expression 5, it can be moved:

(if (cond)
(let ((a 5))
(preamble)
(do-stuff a))
(do-stuff 6))

You can work in side effects into the expressions of a let or let*:

(let* ((x (progn (widget-lock w)
(widget-x w)))
(y ...))
(...)
(widget-unlock w))

If lock-widget returns the widget, it can look like this:

(let* ((w (widget-lock w))
(x (widget-x x))
(y ...))
...
(widget-unlock w))

I have this pretty bad, to the point where even climbing a few flights of stairs will leave me wasted and feeling like utter shit. It's taken 15 years and 10s of thousands of dollars (with insurance) to figure out that I have Hashimoto's. The treatments can help a little bit, but not much, and no doctor can tell me why. I've read a few books that give some plausible sounding examples, but anytime I've mentioned these to doctors they are dismissive yet can offer zero explanations themselves. There are no shortage of chiropractors and functional medicine practitioners that have very plausible sounding explanations, but no real solutions (I've tried every type of diet-based advice I could and it can sometimes feel like things are improving a little bit, but the super hard diets are not sustainable. I've restricted gluten and dairy as those are the two most suggested things that enflame, and I definitely feel better without those things, but it's really, really hard to eat like they tell you too unless you have a personal chef).

If you are having similar, try completely cutting caffeine for a little while. It can be extremely hard when you're already fatigued, but it is like gasoline on the fire for me now.

No claim on whether it's true (as I have no idea), but there's something called RCCX theory that tries to explain this and many other autoimmune diseases.
Sometimes a company is moribund much, much earlier than people realize. When you're faced with "do X or shut down" you will often chose to do X, even if X is pretty likely to result in shut down because you have a "die now, maybe die later" thing.

First off voyager was amazing. Now that we cleared that up…I wonder what was different about 1995 vs 2024?

I’m the same person I was back then and I don’t even remember tuvok being black being brought up.

It’s almost as if we’ve spent almost 30 years focusing on race and telling specific subgroups they are bad and it had the predictable result of making people even more reactionary and even more racist.

Let’s be real tho. The division is the point. Hard to have a class struggle when everyone’s so focused on race.
