We have an FAQ on how we differ from Jupyter https://docs.marimo.io/faq.html#faq-jupyter

the main differences: we are reproducible and reactive. we also aim to be more maintainable, reusable, shareable, and interactive.

For JupyterLite: since we are reactive, you can run notebooks entirely as applications (https://marimo.app/l/e9wii1?mode=read). This means you can easily embed these in (or run them standlalone as) interactive documentation or interactive blog posts.

Not in the slightest? Because I'm pretty sure asking if you were "supposed to" feel something is in fact a common turn of phrase.
I've heard a lot of stories about mid-90s codebases for sure
I think I see what you're saying.

Perhaps my mention of Newton's third law gave you the impression that I was advocating for that "stone skip" theory ­— I assure you I wasn't! Especially as presented on that page, it is obviously junk (:

But surely you agree, broadly, that if birds are flying inside a sealed box, the box still weighs the same amount as if they were standing, right? (modulo some fluctuations)

All of the pressure differentials and whatnot have the net effect that an upward force on the wing results in a downward force elsewhere. The purpose of the scale is to measure that force — like measuring the weight of the box with birds in it.

In the hovering helicopter example, wouldn't you agree that a (large) scale directly under the helicopter will measure a weight corresponding to the helicopter's lift force? Like if I blow directly onto a kitchen scale — it will measure some grams.

Edit: I feel we are kinda re-hashing the Bernoulli/Newton discussion also addressed at the nasa site: https://www.grc.nasa.gov/www/k-12/VirtualAero/BottleRocket/a... — 'So both "Bernoulli" and "Newton" are correct ...'

For reference, the correct Newtonian explanation (flow turning) is also covered: https://www.grc.nasa.gov/www/k-12/VirtualAero/BottleRocket/a...

That is always the case so I wouldn’t over index on that.
Logically, yes, but the parent comment is saying that you have to contend with Mrs. Busy Body who won't be happy seeing your children in the "unsafe" lakes and rivers. You're considered an "asshole" if your kids are anything more than porcelain dolls to show off to guests. Letting kids be kids is unthinkable in this day of age.

Poor people aren't apt to care if someone thinks they are an asshole, but the middle class people we're talking about feel like they have to keep up appearances for some reason. And, so, they miss out on having children they claim they want because of it. Strange, but that's people for ya. They don't put much thought into things.
Not yet, but we can add it if customers want it.

My observation is that SpaceX is Elon's most successful company. It is fully private, he has great ties with US govt and even if Starlink goes out, SpaceX will keep shinning on.
There's not much difference doing a pipe or using and intermediary file and "excecuting" that straight away. There's no manual step in the documentation there to read the output before it's run.

A Heart-Centered Approach to Digital Transformation Through Customer Service
Let’s talk about a Heart-Centered Approach to Digital Transformation – an Ikigai-infused customer service as the ultimate driver for our Digital Transformation.
100% agree. I think Reddit is a huge propaganda machine in itself. The most ironic thread I’ve seen was a headline about how Republicans were more susceptible to propaganda, with every comment of course being 3-10 words amounting to “oh yeah so true, they’re terrible”. Anyone that actually read past the headline though could see the article was total nonsense.

I suppose it may be harder to control since a central authority can’t publish anything they want.
Is there a 15 year deadline for it to disrupt the market or something? And there are markets other than the US. The big store near me has, I believe, 16 self checkouts and 2 tills, usually 1 being manned by the same person who handles all the self checkouts.
Money buys things. Cryptocurrency does not. Some may use it as a store of value but it’s not money any more than gold or silver is.

How would they do that? So far, the LLMs can't be trusted to produce accurate answers. The AI companies can pay money to the data sources, but they can't really offer back anything useful (yet, imho).

I felt an electric shock when I realized the size of it -- 43 feet in circumference and 16 feet across.

This is an interesting measure. A circle with diameter of 16 would have a circumference of 50. For an ellipse with a wide dimension of 16, the short dimension would be 11.2 to have a circumference of 43. I wonder why the tree grew in such an odd shape. Was it double-trunked? The image references were broken when I accessed the article.

The Wayback Machine has a low resolution photo. Looks like it might have a trunk split way up there?

This is one of the issues with prioritising cars over all other forms of transport - they tend to crowd out any other form of transport or make them far less desirable due to the distances involved or the danger posed by drivers.
GPT4 is much faster for searching through results than I am typically and can pull out exactly what I need.

I've basically completely replaced Google in my day-to-day unless i need to look up a specific location of something in the physical world or something that recently happened.
I dunno, I wasn’t born yet
I have a Google Keep note where I record the results from the last workout. I figured out I really only need that. I don't need history, I just need to know how long ago was the last workout, how much did I lift / time under tension, so I can make a decision about today's program.

I love fancy graphs for my endurance work but for lifting, I feel like this is pretty much all I really need.
Basically a $180 LicheePi 4A 16/128 (I have one), though apparently a custom board design.

I was thinking the same thing. How many times can I say no to a difficult task before they let me go?
I've not seen part 2 yet. But, if they really are making a trilogy and the second part ends on a high note, then classic film-writing tells us that the overall trilogy is bound to be a tragedy not a comedy.

The end of the second act (in 3-act plays/movies) is either the nadir of the protagonist's journey, or the height of the tragic-hero's success. At least per storytelling books.

Most stories are told in 5 acts [0], and in comedies the hero/protagonist sees the darkest point in the story at the end of the 4th act. Thereby giving the hero the largest contrast possible in climbing out of the depths to their heights at the end of the story; the most cathartic path possible.

In tragedies, the protagonist/tragic-hero sees them at the height of their power/fortunes at the end of the 4th act. Thereby giving the protagonist the greatest fall possible; the most repression for the audience.

[0] The reasons for this going all the way back to Shakespeare and the odd interplay between the size of human bladders (~2.5 hours) and the burn length of the candles from the company near the Globe (~40 minutes).
You're talking about docs here as if they're like a textbook on Calculus. Thorough, constant and unquestionably effective.

Online docs are nothing like this.

First, they can change as frequently as every few weeks, so there's no point in studying them exhaustively if they'll be useless after the next update.

Second, they're often inferior to Google's answers on the topic, especially if you're using your question as the search query.

Third, even if they are current and the best text resource available, they may still be bad. Halfhearted explanations or even whole pages saying "content should go here." Often worse than simply asking for an explanation in a Slack or a Discord.

I don't think that would be true of an engineer with a physical tool, but it's often true of software tools.
We do support GitHub Copilot in the pip/conda installable version that you can run locally on your computer. (https://github.com/marimo-team/marimo)

We have considered adding more copilot features for refactoring or text-to-cell.
Ever since Sagan showed the flask of chemicals getting zapped, creating a goo of amino acids and whatnot, I've wanted to know how life started.

Then I want to know the role of disruption in the emergence of us (intelligence). Randomizers cataclysmic events, plate tectonics, seasons, lunar tides, epochs, and so forth. Would evolution have stalled had there not always new niches being created? Should SETI be focused on planets (in the goldilocks zone) which have had pretty rough histories?
Unless the vendor ships the laptop with 'nix I guess there is a chance it won't work out of the box. But given it is is running on Apple's M series now, the odds of it not working after a while are very, very low.

As for me, I've only used laptops since 2000 or so (a variety of Dell's and Lenovo's), I've only run Debian on them, and at worst I've had to do is use a kernel from Debian testing.

I think it's safe to say the current version of Linux runs on more laptop and desktop hardware than the current version of Windows now. Windows may run on some bleeding edge hardware Linux doesn't because the laptop manufacturer "made it happen" with specialised drivers, but as a rule manufacturers don't give a rats about older hardware they shipped and Windows has been deliberately breaking compatibility with old hardware, so there is no comparison. Linux runs on everything older, Windows only the latest.

Every instance of a person throwing up their hands in disgust and moving to Windows has been because of that. They had some solid "well worn sock" of a laptop they adored as their daily driver, a Windows update broke it once too many times and they rage quit their Microsoft addiction.
We have native dataframe support that encourages homogenous types, but we also want to meet Excel users where they are! Probably half the world's economy runs on Excel, it's the world's most popular programming language :)
yeah the fremen in part 1 are kinda boring.

My solution for the backup problem is simple.

1) Remove as much data as possible: you don't have to worry about data you don't have

2) Print important documents and store in fireproof safe or bank box

3) What remains fits on a USB stick, just make a monthly copy.

TL;DR: declutter first, only then think about backups.
Can confirm that you may run into trouble e.g. when requiring screenshot capabilities (via scrot in our case) hence we had to set the WaylandEnable to false as well.

> which is why cheap beer has settled on aluminum cans

Where I come from beers come almost exclusively in glass bottles for the large ones (66cl), aluminum cans are only used for the small ones (33cl) but you can buy them in glass as well.

There is usually no price difference whatsoever

For example

https://www.amazon.it/Peroni-Italiano-Moderatamente-Gradazio...

https://www.amazon.it/Peroni-175-Anniversario-Birra-Cassa-dp...

Many of the cheapest beers are imports, for example Bavaria, that you usually find in aluminum cans in Holland but in glass bottles in Italy.

I can't explain why, but for us some things must be bottled in glass or they aren't "good".

Tomatoes is another example: you can find cans of tomato pulp or peeled tomatoes, but not the sauce, it always comes in glass bottles (it exists of course, but it's a very weird choice to us).

Your argument is akin to being against needles because the government might use them to perform lethal injections.

I don't know if you've ever known any addicts, but they aren't exactly happy about being addicted. Give them a treatment that works and is affordable and most of them will be just happy to get some targeted head buzzing to treat their symptoms.
How wasteful would it be to build a car with charging ports on both sides?

Would use far more resources than most other conveniences you find in a car, but would also be a far more substantial quality of life improvement than the other stuff.
We have definitely gotten requests to embed spreadsheets in webpages (e.g. as dashboards, etc), it's on the roadmap

Calling a polypropylene cap sustainable is a joke, right?
X86 might but devices connected to it in embedded world have had to be very very aware of this stuff since the 90s.
Do you know what a DE-9 port is, by any chance?

I'm glad the federal government isn't forcing computer manufacturers to include them.

Guess we better hope USB-C is the best port a phone can possibly have, because the EU is hell-bent on locking it in for eternity.
That says absolutely nothing if the page serving the expected md5 sum is also compromised.

With HTTPS, everything is already checked in transit, so you don’t need to verify it again.

On top of that, with git, all the revisions are inherently verified as sha1 hashes.

In either case, what’s inside may still be malicious if you end up on a typosquatted repo.
The competency pipeline issue predates the threat of AI, I do agree that AI will make it much worse as it’s hard to see a payoff on investment into skills of AI is going to replace you anyway. I feel like a wise old sage knowing things that new generations will never learn and may even be lost to humanity.
What does Faarlund say about Frisian then? Frisian is also a West Germanic language, and to my understanding is very closely related to English to the point that it is possible to speak a grammatically correct sentence in English and IIRC West Frisian simultaneously.

This must just be me then. I'll give it another shot!
I wonder if domain specific templates/views could be made to help bridge the gap between the leafs (layouts, colors etc) to the base constraints (performance, security etc). Engineers wind up acting like compilers for the product owners ideas and sometimes that shit don't compile and it can be pretty tough to explain why not.
Can I use a no-bloat minimal window manager with Nvidia+AMD hybrid graphics yet? No? I'll stick to X¹¹ then.
Technically the Fremen aren't exactly Muslim (although they seem to be Muslim-coded) -- they are members of a new religion called Zen-Sunni, which was formed when Zen Buddhism and Sunni Islam merged at some point in the future. And the other major religion Orange Catholicism presumably likewise is a merge of Protestantism ("Orange") back into Catholic Christianity.
Do you wind up wasting the next one in the row, so only wasting half as many slots?

I'm curious about the longevity of these sort of collaborations - in the future who is contributing to these knowledge bases? I imagine the communities that surround these places will fade away if new users are unaware of them and content creation begins to halt.

Though I suppose that is a short sighted concern in itself given the way in which we work will begin to evolve quickly as AI becomes more powerful.

In the end, I guess they end up being a positive press story for Google / Open AI / etc.?
If "in debt" means "they can keep issuing bonds and people are buying them" then they're fine.

If it means "they cannot make payments on bonds and cannot issue new ones because nobody wants them" then the Feds will have to step in, or they'll have to liquidate state assets (including privatizing various governmental functions, selling land and leasing it back, etc), or raise taxes to balance the budget. They literally cannot print money.

This cycle has already destroyed a few cities (usually the city gets swallowed by the county).

There's a step where they issue "warrants" like CA did a few times: https://taxfoundation.org/blog/california-issuing-state-warr...
Yeah. I was also gleefully looking cause lifting trackers are universally garbage.

Diet trackers (Calorie Counters) are also almost universally a pain in the ass, but at least they’re tolerable.

There is not a single combined lifestyle experience that is any “good” IMO.
> There are huge lobbies supporting seasonal and temporary worker visas.

Precisely. There are huge lobbies for the thing we already have and not for solving the problem that remains:

> But these are all temporary work visas, not visas allowing for permanent work and residence in the United States. So they would not cover permanent economic migrants who end up in the restaurant sector or in janitorial work.

People want cheap domestic labor but refuse to admit to it in writing. They want a "minimum wage" but not the higher prices that implies for common services that require unskilled labor. They want home values and their own corrupt industry's margins to stay high and blame Walmart for not paying a "living wage" under those conditions, while patronizing Walmart because they have lower prices.

You can't have two incompatible things at once and when you demand that, what you get is deception and rules that only exist on paper.
If you search for "luier recycling" you can find out how it's done.
I agree that we can define a safe serialization format for models with given assumptions about architecture. I.e. when the model is just the matrices and cannot supply custom inference code needed to process the matrices.

But, I expect we're going to have additional rounds of insecure practice just like we've had in every other popularized tech movement. People are going to develop frameworks with code-injection flaws, where they assume mode outputs (tokens) can be trusted and can contain executable content. Then, the inscrutable and untrustworthy models are going to be a problem as well.

Think everything from MS Office macro abuse to human drivers blindly following their GPS guidance into a lake. This can and most probabaly will be repeated with AI models, due to the prevalence of naive and over-trusting practitioners and consumers.
old lady matrix? I couldn't get into it...
Probably not a project spanning more than 3 decades of development and millions of lines of code?
And the idea of giving up on customer service isn't anything new. Google and Meta have been extremely successful with this approach. AI is just an excuse for others to follow suit.
No worries!

Also searching for "iphone call recording" on your marketplace of choice like amazon, also shows many results including usb dongles which act as a bluetooth dongle as far as I understand.

I neither own an iPhone nor any of these devices, so I can't tell how usable all these devices are!

Probably a middle man bluetooth device which you would connect via bluetooth from the iPhone, which then connects to a bluetooth headset could add a noticable delay, but I haven't seen such a device (maybe because of that exact reason)
Some of these systems dated back to the 1970s. The worst offenders were from the 1980s and 1990s though.

It's all about the team or organization and their laziness or non-laziness.

The Soviet Union, witch was a country

An empire, not a country.

Which dissolved itself peacefully enough and with no outside prodding of any kind on 26 December 1991. In the process, fully and unequivocally recognizing the complete sovereign independence of all of its constituent members at the time -- along with their inviolable borders -- including Ukraine.

End of story, full stop.

This idea you have that it's basically "still one country, hashing things out" is seriously misinformed nonsense.

Kievan Rus

And the idea that anyone, anywhere should be fighting a full-scale war in 2024 based on (or "explained" by) events of the 9th-13th centuries is, by all objective standards -- batshit crazy.
Bit outdated?
not really a contract issue. GM was not under any obligation to Apple to continue to use their service. GM seems to not care about it's customer's desires in this issue, either.

That is not true. Jobs have been already replaced, even before chatgpt. Customer support team of 10 is replaced with chatbot and 2 people.

Half of the jobs will be replaced with AI soon. Writers? No need to have huge team, one senior is enough. Developers? Lawyers? Illustrators? Lay off half and replace them with AI tools!
