That's a feature. I don't want anything bleeding edge. Give me older battle tested to hell and back code. Nothing new.
I didn't know I could use it on MacOS. I recently started a new job where they have nothing but Mac, so I've been looking for a text editor that can do what Kate does. Everything seems to want to do 101 things before basic text editing, rather than just be a simple text editor with optional functionality, so I'm really excited to have Kate installed. I'm really hoping I don't run into too many issues as I've used Kate for years on my home & work setups and would really like to continue using it on mac now.

The tropics lost the equivalent of 10 soccer (football) fields of forest per minute last year due to logging, human-set fires and climate change, according to a new report from the World Resources Institute (WRI).
Base 10 is not bad for day to day use because you can just round there. Metric system is especially good in cooking because you do not need n ways to measure thing. Just one kitchen scale.
Just look at the map of Singapore. It doesn't matter how hard they try, there is malay jungle maybe 1km from the city. Unless its getting the same treatment for another 10km from the border, or they somehow raise star trek shields between it, little buggers can easily find their way to the city even if city itself is sterilized.

> How does the wave poking some electron to a higher state remember the temperature of its source?

The black-body spectrum of the source determines the amount of waves it outputs at each frequency, and in turn is determined by the temperature.
In a way, yes. That's why repressive governments here in Eastern Europe had started using psychology as a tool/weapon in order to institutionalise dissidents, because it was seen as a mental illness not to be on the same page as the predominant ideology back then.

I think a similar thing is starting happening in the West, even though (fortunately) not at the same scale just yet, meaning people who are seen as being against the system are already categorised by the powers that be as "deplorables" (to quote a recent US presidential candidate), i.e. one step way from those having a mental illness.

Later edit:

Something like this [1]

> Ken Stern, a former CEO of National Public Radio, in his new book Republican Like Me: How I Left the Liberal Bubble and Learned to Love the Right, explains that most of the media has been feeding America a negatively skewed view of Trump along with negative characterizations of the "deplorables," the people who hold more conservative viewpoints. Insistence that Trump is "mentally ill" can be regarded as part of this contemptuous discrediting of others whose beliefs differ from theirs.

Where do you think you are, right now? This is a *link* aggregator.
The two extremes don't have the same traits in common whatsoever.

One will clearly be unable to communicate. The other will clearly communicate but allude to an internal torment. One will struggle with the activities of daily living. The other will have a family, a full time job, commitments in the community.

The two people supposedly lack the same abilities. In truth, Autism simply got tied up with entitlements and the diagnosis has been grossly abused as a lever to get access to said entitlements.
One somewhat funny example of this is in the first ST:TNG episode "Encounter at Farpoint". In one shot, the captain asks Data a question, and the camera turns to him to show him standing from his seat at the conn and answering. At the bottom of the screen, it's plainly visible (in the new Blu-Ray version) that a patch of extra carpet is under the edge of the seat. It was probably put there to level the seat or something. At the time, this was ignored, because on a standard SDTV screen, the edges are all rounded, so the very edge of the frame isn't normally visible.

Another thing that's plainly obvious in TNG's remastered version is all the black cardboard placed over the display screens in the back of the bridge, to block glare from lights. In SDTV, this wasn't noticeable because the quality was so bad.
> A dentist will sell a custom fit version for several hundred dollars. (Both are useful for their need, the custom fit are more comfortable, but at a 10-20x price hardly worth it).

I have one of these, my dentist wants me to wear it because apparently I grind my teeth, but turns out I can't wear it. A whole bunch of stuff goes wrong: The thickness means I have nowhere to put my tongue and between that and how it adds volume to my molars my jaw can't close all the way, saliva builds up in front of and below the guard (between the teeth/gums and lips) where I can't do anything to swallow it, and the plastic taste is terrible - the longest I've lasted is about 10 minutes before I have to run to the bathroom and take it out.
Typically, at least in EU, heating systems are regulated per unit in condos, meaning you can choose how much water you allow to flow in the local dissipator/heat exchanger, so the fact there is a single source of heat does not means individuals have to heat too much or too little.

The central heater have a job: keep hot water at a certain temperature, the distribution system have a job: keep hot water flowing at a certain rate, so you can get more or less water per unit issueless (at least in a certain range, projected up front where pumps are dimensioned), individual thermostat valves have a job decide how much water have to flown locally in an apartment or depending on the heating element per-room.

The issue happen with badly designed systems. There was an era in the '60s where heating fuel (oil at that time) was so cheap that builders decide it was cheaper to heat much and open the windows as needed instead of design a proper system with margins. Back than there was not much climate analysis when you project a new building. Most condos was built just for speculation, with little attention to the tech. Most buyers do not care much even today.
I'm okay with conjuring (r+ix)(r+iy)(r+iz) out of thin air. I am also okay with adding an extra step at the bottom to make it a proof of Heron's formula, even though at its heart it's a proof of the radius of the incircle—because the former sounds way more cool.

However, a complete proof really should explain the diagram at the top to properly define x, y and z.

The idea, if I understand correctly, is to draw the altitudes of the three triangles AIB, BIC, CIA, and then show that the six resulting right triangles are congruent in pairs because they have one equal angle at A/B/C (the segments AI, BI, CI bisect the angles of the triangle ABC), and the hypotenuse in common. Not too complicated but even if a picture is worth a thousand words, it wouldn't hurt to have it written also in words.

A subsequent step would prove that r is equal for all pairs of triangles, because it is a common side of triangles coming from different pairs. (As a bonus this proves that the incenter is indeed the center of the inscribed circle).

Likewise, going from r+ix to u*e^iα is basically Pythagoras's theorem, but it would not hurt to write that explicitly. And it does not hurt to write "let s=(a+b+c)/2=x+y+z be the semiperimeter of the triangle" (x+y+z is not the definition of the semiperimeter!) and to only introduce it after x+y+z actually occurs somewhere.

It's a really cool proof, and hey it was written by a high school student—but the proof writing is as important as the proof IMO.
std::list is a value type which copies the underlying elements on copy.
They don't do the special package manager thing but aside from that I think the "immutable distros" like Fedora Silverblue are in this vein no?
Right. But of course std::deque comes with a cost; iteration is slower and memory footprint is bigger.
It also means the determination to stick by that self valuation.

Current laws impose an unpayable tax on micropayments with money-settled valuations but no tax whatsoever on micropayments with attention-settled or personal-data-settled valuations.

It's not a "self-valuation" when you have such an extreme level of state intervention. I'm not sure it's even a market.
> The reason is it's an interesting topic, not everyone has an account there, and it's good to have a meta or different discussion. So on the contrary, it adds good value.

Agree with this reasoning and I'll add a bit more to your point about "different discussion".

There was a reddit story a tad over a month ago: "Someone in IT trolled me for over a decade" : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39678813

It was interesting to read the reactions. On reddit, the story was not questioned at all and the overwhelming response was sympathy & good advice for the user. It just happened to trend that way (sometimes the first few responses dictate the direction).

On HN, the overwhelming response was that the story was fake - with a fair amount of eye-opening analysis.

Sometimes each community brings a unique perspective to a story (sometimes not). Sometimes reddit threads - all by themselves - add significant value.
I'd say this resource is more aimed at the developers writing the stuff on the other side of the APIs a typical desktop application calls.

Not that I'm in favour of developing desktop applications in JavaScript or anything. I don't really think those are a great idea. It's just that there's a lot of intermediate steps between "let's use JavaScript" and "let's worry about using the best x86 opcodes" which are perhaps more sensible than either extreme.
So many great movies mentioned here, I won't repeat them.

I'll just add Hitchcock's The Birds.

I saw it as a kid and it made an impression on me on several levels. For instance, a scary movie doesn't have to be about monsters. And made me realise that other living beings aren't in this planet just to be either food or pets, they're our neighbours.
Virtually all films follow that pattern. Read any textbook about screenwriting, and they'll tell you that 1 any movie has an overarching theme (here is routine life), and 2 all characters need to follow some kind of evolution arc (Phil goes from being the worst cynist to actually becoming a good guy). It's quite hardwired in how hollywood makes movies.
Yeah, the HTML is definitely... interesting. I guess if they've been working on it for over 40 years, they made the website before CSS was a thing?

Well there are movies which were technically well executed with poor stories, and great stories with poor execution. And there were movies which did well in both areas.

For example Tenet. Cool story, poor audio mix. (I don’t buy the explanation that Nolan had any reason other than expediency for this.) If we use “AI” to fix the audio after the fact, that’s a win in my book.

I’m not a film buff or a purist though. I watch movies with subtitles which is certainly not what the director had in mind, but that’s ok.
Besides for the novelty factor, I can't really see specialized personal AI devices taking off. Nearly everyone already has a phone which can handle the processing (some on device stuff should be coming "soon") and network connection, there's really no reason to have a separate device. I could see some "companion" devices becoming popular (watches, smart glasses, etc) but not really standalone devices that more or less just connect to an API to do inference.

That being said, I did almost order a Rabbit R1 this morning when I read that it came with a free year of Perplexity Pro (which is $200/yr) and the device costs $200. However, it was for the first 100,000 preorders and it's not available anymore!
The problem is you cannot implement a reference type without dropping to UnsafePointer or use class. But using class is so discourage nowadays people probably would be better served by adding an Arc / Ref type wrapper like Rust did.
It seems little wild to assume the maker of a movie would care less about the movie than a random mob on the internet (instead of maybe just having a different opinion) but the assumption does feel very internet.
Starting in the early aughts and extending into the release of the Wiimote there were a handful of projects like this, largely for Mac. Never amounted to much more than a proof of concept most of the time but I always found the concept exciting.

> Why does, 'mat' follow from 'the cat sat on the ...' because 'mat' is the most frequent word in the dataset; and the NN is a model of those frequencies.

What about cases that are not present in the dataset?

The model must be doing something besides storing raw probabilities to avoid overfitting and enable generalization (imagine that you could have a very performant model - when it works - but it sometimes would spew "Invalid input, this was not in the dataset so I don't have a conditional probability and I will bail out")
>For many ASD makes it harder to interact with the world around them, whether that's overstimulation, communication challenges, or something else.

No it doesn't. They get frustrated by the other's inability to do so. They need to live in a society, and instead are surrounded by individuals who hardly interact, and hardly any culture, as everything has degraded to what the brain damaged majority can deal with. The music has simplified to a simple beat, the movies have simplified to beasts screaming half sentences at each other, and beating each other up, or, whatever.
You are more speaking about n-gram models here. NNs do far more than that.

Or if you just want to say that NNs are used as a statistical model here: Well, yea, but that doesn't really tell you anything. Everything can be a statistical model.

E.g., you could also say "this is exactly the way the human brain works", but it doesn't really tell you anything how it really works.
One Knuckle Rice Rule
In addition to that it is relevant because Dengue cases are at an all-time currently.
I couldn't find anything specifically swiss, but modern passivehaus standards recommend a combination of recirculating cooker hoods, that filter the big stuff like fat, and then combined with a whole house ventilation system that actively recirculates the whole house air, exchanging internal and external air.

These usually pull from the kitchen area (and bathrooms) to create a directional flow of fresh air through the house.

The extra cooker specific filter prevents the main filter getting clogged with fat. Previously people tried systems with a way to bypass the filters when the cooker hood was on.
It’s funny bc Semafor received something like $10m from SBF.
I think you are the best person to judge your parnter's sleep health.

CPAP has been a gamechanger for me, and my partner. It took two years to get it through the health system, (having a box duct-taped to me at the hospital for home sleep analysis was completly useless), duriing which time I developed some chronic health issues. I was so grateful to to finally recieve my machine (the Nose Hose we call it) that the aquwardness and sillyness issues were tiny in comparison to the benifit of getting a good night's sleep.

Be on the lookout for these symptoms:

Why do you want ssh if you don't have network :)
Linux has lots of sandboxing features.

The issue is often not the individual features, but delivering them as a consistent, usable package. Though Flatpak is getting there, but it's a long road, you don't just need some kernel sandboxing features, but also toolkit extensions to make files available to sandboxed applications (portals), etc.

Many Linux distros only use them minimally because the value proposition is poor: Most distros don't ship closed-source applications

That's kind of putting your head in the sand. A lot of users need closed-source applications for work, such as Slack, Zoom, Chrome, Obsidian, JetBrains IDEs (the non-open source flavors), or for fun (Games, Steam, Spotify). Some have web apps, but the generally work less well.

a tiny number of backdoored open source packages

Backdoored applications are not the only issue. Also non-backdoored applications with vulnerabilities, basically any client, etc. The saving grace of the Linux desktop is that it's not much of an interesting target due to relatively low popularity. Otherwise actors would be hunting for vulnerabilities in RSS readers, chat clients, etc. (remember that the surface is not only the application itself, but also any image/video decoding libraries, etc.).

OTOH, sandboxing tends to break the kind of complex workflows that users are fond of.

That's an issue, especially for Linux power users. For most users, sandboxing can be done without too many issues (see e.g. sandboxed Mac apps).

Capistrano allows you to configure and run tasks on a remote server, such as pulling the latest version of code from the git repo and running the newest migrations.

Anecdotal, but I have CPAP and MAD. MAD never worked for me, although I wish it did. I still snore with it and don’t get good sleep.

On the flip side, I can no longer sleep without CPAP. I wish it wasn’t so expensive, invasive, and power hungry.

I’ve been thinking about designing my own 3D printable nasal mask. The consumables are the expensive part for me and they are relatively simple devices. I pay around $100 for the mask that you thrown away every few months.

Mine consumes a lot of power because it uses a heated humidifier—I’m in a dry state. Seems like a cool mist would be better for me but they don’t really exist. The power isn’t a problem at home but can be when away from home, such as camping.
If you know someone in a different time zone the first thing you establish is when it's ok to call. Nobody cares about sunlight. There are more important things like when do they work, when do they get home etc.
In EU a common classic dryer absorb 2000W, a heat-pump one around 800W. Of course they have a certain load limit, you can't dry an entire winter bed lingerie all together.

Anyway most washing machines (those who also dry and those who only wash) and dishwashers absorb around 2kW when they heat the water, for washing machines typically only one time (two if they also dry) for dishwashers 2 or 3 times. Running time depends of the program you choose: the quickest wash in general is 15' as the quickest dry, a typical wash for misc clothes is 1h/1h30', drying is 20' (much depend on how quick you can run the washer spin cycle, at 1500rpm 15' drying is enough in most cases). A dishwasher takes typical cycle is 1h30'.

Of course professional dishwashers run in few minutes, and they are far larger than the "standard 60x60x90 cm size", washing machines and dryer take the same times even at nearly-industrial product.

25-29.9 is the usual range for “overweight, but not obese” in the US and Germany (so probably the rest of Europe, too); I remember my hotel room scale in Korea showing 23 as the start of overweight, so I guess the ranges in that study are more commonly used across Asia - the study was done on Singaporeans.
> After each message show suggested follow-ups

Ask people how they feel about Alexa's "follow up" suggestions ;)

It's not easy to do discoverability in general. Especially not through an intentionally limited modality. People study this stuff, many businesses and product researchers have spent years workshopping ideas. If it was a quick and easy idea like "just tell the user" then it wouldn't be a challenge in 2024.

The problem with "show messages... suggest followups" is that you can't teach the user about new features that are unrelated to their current interaction because it feels like advertising, and its distracting to their current task at hand.
