Hah, first time someone noted that connection!

On the original topic of the thread, check out Chemical Forces video on boranes - [https://youtu.be/8hrYlhTYl5U?si=4SDJq4MxAEu714iY]

I’m not a chemist, but used to read my copy of ‘chemistry of powders and explosives’ to get to sleep, and synthesized a few out of curiosity over the years. There are some real fun wiki holes in the topic too.

The azides do tend to be a bit unstable as well, same as the fulminates.

Most are still more stable than the organic peroxides, at least if they’re uncontaminated,

Energetics chemists tend to be the Leroy Jenkins of scientists.

Lead(ii) azide has mostly been replaced by lead styphnate or other compounds in commercial use, safer to synthesize [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_styphnate]

Yeah exactly, as nice as it is as an idea, that does literally nothing for the person who might have died completely alone.
Two-wheeled cargo bikes are already starting to get popular in my area (although I imagine plenty of people see them as an annoying hipster affectation). People ride them pretty carefully -- taking the entire lane, etc -- as they're often carrying children.

So, I'm not so sure electric rickshaws couldn't take off.
It's hard to say much with certainty here beyond just recognising the current path is unsustainable. Obviously the debt/GDP cannot increase indefinitely without either the government ending up bankrupt, or more likely hyperinflation.

The issue I think we have today is that there's no real political motivation to fix these problems and people are unhappy and unwilling to make scarifies, such as paying higher tax or cuts to government spending.

However, the US is in a relatively strong position given many developed countries find themselves in similar positions. The US has a lot of debt, but it's not that much more than other comparable nations. The US also has more fiscal room to raise taxes as reduce its deficit.

My guess would be that other nations find themselves in a serious sovereign debt crisis first and this will worry politicians and the US public enough that drastic action is taken.

The most obvious outcome in the US is higher taxes and increases to the pension age. While European countries that take action will likely rely more on spending cuts in addition to increasing the pension age.

But this assumes that productivity isn't going to boom in the years to come from AI or something similar. A significant increase in productivity would be the best solution to this problem, but we shouldn't assume that's coming.

As an individual the best thing you can do to safeguard from this is diversification so you're prepared either way. You'll want to own assets that give you protection from inflationary or a hyper-inflation scenarios – things like gold, a diversified stock portfolio and property. The other slightly less likely risk would be some kind of economic crisis that results in a global deleveraging, in which case you'll probably want to ensure you're debt free and have plenty of savings. If you have savings, have no debt, own property, and have a some diversified investments you'll probably do okay whatever happens.

If you're anticipating a crisis and want to maximally profit from it then you'll need to decide if you think the risk is hyperinflation or an economic crisis followed by a deleveraging event similar to the great depression. If you think hyperinflation is likely then taking a ton of long-term fixed debt out now and buying assets like gold or property would be the best option. If you think a great depression event is likely then you want to ensure you're debt free and maximise your savings.

At the time, it felt like Debian got a lot of flack for the bug, but there's the collaboration attempt you mention above.

Plus, the upstream OpenSSL code was invoking undefined behaviour. Hence the compiler could have validly made the exact same transformation as the Debian maintainer. At the time this felt academic: surely compilers can't be that mean! Since then I think undefined behaviour is better understood as a thing to avoid entirely.

Then, eight years later, Heartbleed was discovered. And we suddenly all realised how badly maintained OpenSSL was. In their defence, it was pretty much a volunteer job. Thankfully, subsequent funding has improved the situation.
I think a lot of runners have the ability, but are excluded simply because they have a weak passport or can't afford the visas.

It sounds like you're saying that your hosting never incurs cold starts in the first place, because you always preload all customers' applications into memory before serving any traffic.

That's a fine optimization, if you can fit everything. Cloudflare Workers also preloads the most popular apps before serving traffic -- but we can't load all applications this way since they wouldn't all fit into memory. We only consider it a "cold start" when a request arrives for an application that wasn't preloaded.
If I'm not mistaken, this is not on the models itself, but rather on the implementation of the addon.

I haven't found an open source VSCode or WebStorm addon yet that allows me to use a local model and implements code completion and commands as good as GitHub Copilot.

They either miss a chat feature and/or inline action / code completion and/or fill-in-the-middle models. And if they do, they don't provide the context as intelligently (? an assumption!) as GH's Copilot does.

One alternative I liked was Supermaven: It's really really fast and has a huge context window, so it knows almost your whole project. That was nice! But - one thing I ultimately didn't continue using it for: It doesn't support chat and/or inline commands (CTRL+I on VSCode's GH Copilot).

I feel like a really good Copilot alternative is definitely a still missing.

But: Regarding your question, I think GitHub Copilot's VSCode extension is the best - as of now. The WebStorm extension is sadly not as good, it misses the "inline command" function which IMHO is a must.
There have been superchargers in the parking lot of my local grocery store that were installed about 5 months ago that still are not open.
They can't function without it, so the list does exist. The IRS keeps records of residents and their marital state (a required piece of information on the form).

But those records aren't really fit for the purpose of certifying that someone is not currently married, because (a) they do not include people who don't need to file taxes; and (b) they are only updated once a year.

For pretty much every other administrative purpose, it doesn't matter whether you're married or not, so I don't really see why you'd want the tax records updated more often.

Do you have any insight as to why this is? Why are e-rickshaws more dangerous than ICE auto rickshaws or bicycle rickshaws? Shouldn't they be inherently more stable than both of those if you put the heavy battery in the floor?

> They are easy to tip over, for example, when going over a pothole filled with water after rains.

Do you know why they don't they use larger front wheels from off-road motorcycles (or bike wheels like the traditional bicycle rickshaws)?

The difference being, that Prometheus' actions brought humanity fire and with it the power to both cook and fight against the darkness of night, while Lucifer brought knowledge of pain, lust, pride, and gluttony (among others). Only by leaving out what Lucifer actually brought to Adam and Eve can the comparison really work.

"I don't like this thing therefore it's stupid."

Clearly you've never built a keyboard or shot a gun, there is plenty of physical and mental challenge if you want there to be. I've never gotten into knives but there's absolutely a huge physicality aspect if you go down the self defense rabbit hole there - huge in certain martial arts. But regardless, not everything needs to be a challenge and not everything needs to have "cultural or aesthetic enrichment" (although I'd absolutely disagree on your assertion there's no aesthetic component to keyboards or firearms).

Feeling the need to diminish what other people find joy in is the hallmark of a sad person.

On writing your feelings.

I remember a WAMU radio show talking about a woman who was abused by her father.

She wrote the 5 steps of forgiveness which as I more or less recall go something
like this:

The 5 steps of asking for forgiveness.

The offender to the offended should:

1. Describe in detail exactly what he/she/they did that cause the offense.
2. Describe in detail how those actions made the offended feel.
3. Explain in detail why he/she/they took such actions.
4. Describe in detail what corrective actions he/she/they should take.
5. Describe in detail what the offended could do to move forward.

Now the interesting part is that the woman's father was already dead
when she wrote the steps. She wrote a letter using the 5 steps as if she was her father, who denied to his death that the abuse ever happened, asking for forgiveness.

It helped her.

I wished I could remember the name of the book or the radio show but it was
years ago.

Democracy is also vulnerable to the tyranny of the majority, apathy, disenfranchisement, and multiple concerns that compete for head space. It's also slow, and the legal system exists specifically to address concerns like this.

If a cop is busting heads, you don't wait to elect a new sheriff, you bring a lawsuit to fix the acute problem. If a department is systematically harming a group, you can try to elect someone who will make this their project, or you can get an intervention to prevent further harm via the legal system.

Using the legal system to prevent acute harm is both correct and reasonable, even in a democracy.
First of all, congrats on the release! Well done. A few questions:

- Since the platform is designed to scale, it would be nice to see scalability benchmarks

- Is the platform compatible with human-in-the-loop workflows? In my experience, those workflows tend to require vastly different needs than fully automated workflows (e.g. online advertising)

I have always found analog writing to be a powerful cognitive tool.

Writing changes your thoughts from abstract to concrete - and once a thought is "out of your head" on paper, it becomes an entity that you can perform additional thought operations on (which you can then write down...etc.).

Analog writing also leaves visual evidence of your thought process across a page. Most digital writing tools allow you to make the thought process disappear completely as you work. Having evidence of your thought process allows you to evaluate your thought process. Very important in any kind of problem solving exercise.

As a child, I found that writing down a thought that bothered me made it go away and freed my brain up to do kid stuff.
In my short lifetime computer nerds have gone from losers worth making fun of, to rockstars making gobs of cash, to villains ruining whatever place they live or hobby they take up. Pretty wild.

You can't demonstrate whether a dataset is representative or not by "an example or two". You need to look at all the data.

And all of this is fine. It's just a benchmark suit and doesn't need to be fully representative. The dataset itself doesn't even claim to be that as far as I can find. All I'm saying that the title wasn't really accurate.

Because it creates more problems than it solves. A movie set is expensive and moves fast – and keying is not as big of a problem as they made it out to be.

For example, Niko doesn't seem to be aware of the IBK keyer (based on his comments in the VFX subreddit), which is the keyer used on almost every shot in high-budget movies. While it's not a single-click solution, it's the main tool to tackle thousands of shots with defocused edges, motion blur, and semitransparency every year.

Niko deserves credit for bringing Paul's incredible experiment, but Corridor is at its core a group of entertainers, and most of them have never had experience in a large production/VFX environment. Take everything they present with a grain of salt.

Presumably this is a reactionary policy to combat the large numbers of stores closing due to absurdly high rates of shoplifting.

It seems ripe for “malicious compliance” once a store is ready to close; understaffed, poorly stocked, reduced operating hours, etc.

Overall a very disgusting policy of overreach which does nothing to address the root causes.

There is not much impressive here. Their architecture seems to be relying on a couple of datacenters, and if somebody have turned on or not the right switches in the right places. This means you will continue to hear from regular outages and maybe nice postmortem blogs. I don't see a fundamental approach to reliability based on concepts around blast radius, expecting anything to fail anytime, and fundamental principles of bulkhead patterns.

Here is a free hint: By talking so much about where their data centers are located, on my view, they already failed item one on my check list. Principle number one of Physical Security is, you don't say where your Data Centers are, except of course to very restricted number of "need to know group".

As predictions have no value, unless they are made prior to events, I predict the next outage will be some common core component, with some on/off type of config, with some common core configuration, that "could not be foreseen". Then to the next blog...On to the next outage....
Yeah Penpot's performance was shockingly bad when I tried it not that long ago.
There are LED indicator lights that flash red when it detects a current drop. When the blade is not moving, you can touch it with your finger to see. In theory you could do this with whatever material you're going to cut. If you're cutting metal, it's pretty obvious that you need to disable the brake system. Usually where it's iffy is pressure treated lumber. Sometimes it'll trigger, sometimes not. Really depends on the moisture content of the wood and that can vary greatly. "testing" by touching the material to the blade with your hands on it might or might not indicate that the brake would fire. The points you're contacting could just not be that wet.

So what must the swiss government do if it wishes to comply? they control a lot of the world's financial system so they can threaten to cut off funding lines of poor polluting countries. But that would cause great unrest in those poor countries and undoubtedly would worsen the lives of many many more, in order to improve the quality of life of these 4 swiss ladies.

Can citizens from every country bring similar cases to the court? Then they will have no option but to produce hundreds of mutually-contradictory rulings. I wonder if they have set an interesting precedent for themselves
Yeah, the small business system integrator business was really different back then. Especially before Visicalc (1979), which opened a lot of doors for Apple. A profile of that segment of the pre-IBM-PC industry would be fascinating and would put Vector in the right context.

To be fair, CP/M machines had much better software tooling available than the hobbyist 6502 computers for a long time - compare MBASIC or CBASIC to what shipped with your favorite home computer. And S-100 systems like the Vector had a tremendous ecosystem of cards but my recollection from reading BYTE as a kid was it was not a plug-and-play matter to get them working in your system.
Oh, neat! I worked for a Car Load Financing company during the pandemic. We had data on how many people were applying for loans by geography, and how much it dipped from the "normal" load. I didn't realize it at the time, but areas with a "low" dip also repealed their stay-at-home orders sooner.
> I'm not talking about cracking a key. I'm talking about creating a key from seed 0, then 1, then 2, etc. etc., until you have an index of every possible key.

Computationally the two are the same: cracking a key generated by a secure algorithm is equivalent to generating all possible keys and checking to see which one matches.
How does this relate to Zipline and Bighead? Does it replace those projects or is it a continuation of them?

It is interesting that the first two comments on here are in relation to the living. Yes we should strive to reduce the suffering of the living to the fullest extent possible. But, just as much, the dead do deserve our attention and respect.

Is it “pointless” from some sort of “efficient use of time and resources”? Of course it is. That isn’t the point. Much of what gives meaning and purpose in life can be deemed “pointless” (music, fiction, liturgy). As Aristotle said:
