It gives you 10-25% advantage. That is not an "edge".

An "edge" IMO is something that gets you a 1% advantage ... maybe ... at the top end of competition.

The problematic aspects if PEDs isn't that they are a minor advantage. A 10% advantage in top athletics is game over for non-PED users.

Steroids are mostly equivalent to EPO in terms of advantage it provides to top end competition: as in there isn't one. If the next 1000 athletes in ability dope with steroids (fast twitch) or EPO (slow twitch) but the top naturally gifted athlete doesn't, guess what rank he'll be in the world? Probably in the 100-200 range, fighting to barely stay in the top pro ranks.

If the PED gives your competitors a 20% advantage? Maybe you're an ok starter in Division 1 NCAA or a second-tier pro league.

I'm still mostly convinced that harvesting the energy and re-using it ala elastic tendons is a decently good idea. But probably far too complex.
I think it was due to GloVe embeddings back then: I don't recall them ever being called GloVe vectors, although the "Ve" does stand for vector so it could have been RAS syndrome.

Yes, if he/she was using it for that (kid projects, Scratch, etc.) it would have been the right tool. Maybe it's because she skipped all those steps in his/her IT education is the reason he/she is having troubles now.

I learned about the devicetree on a RPi too, but I didn't complain about it in a blog. When I bought my first RPi I expected to encounter problems and learn a lot from solving them. In fact, I expected it to be much much worse - so much worse that I even bought the RTC module even before the RPi arrived in the mail. Why didn't he/she think of that? It's because he/she is lacking the basics, the kid project with gpio leds and i2c sensors.

Right - so from the perspective of a Greek person, EU lawmakers are speaking a completely different language. Seems like a pretty big communication problem to me.

> Also, it would already be sufficient for the cause if Greek newspapers would put the spotlight on GREEK politicians in Brussels.

But the Greek politicians in Brussels already agree with the Greek government.

If the German faction in Brussels wants to do something that'll be unpopular with Greece, they've got no way to make their case to the Greek people directly.

Did the British government ever agree that was their job?

The "undisclosed" also mean they can just straight up give you different prices than they give to your competition which can affect fair competition in your field. Imagine that you compete with them in some different field..., or an easier one - if you compete with their investors' other investments...,

or you're in a country with politicians donation/spending limits (which are common outside USA) and they give their software for $1 to "that one annoying politician" and it won't count as a discount towards their donation limit, because the "original price" is unknown.

In the high 90's... which ironically and sadly is not great for a software engineering career. I would compare this to being a passionate artist and then realizing commercial art is the antithesis of creating good art. It's a contradiction that is born from the profit driven needs of businesses. That said, it's not all doom and gloom, sometimes companies find a space in which to prioritize engineering (or art in the example), and I think these are the companies that are ground-breaking and move the industry forward.

Also, in my defense, it seems the entire education system, especially higher education, does not mitigate against this. Doing well in a CS degree basically means you are passionate about software theory, and there is almost no mention of the pragmatic elements of business, the need for people skills, or the quirks of the market in which your career depends on.

I work in a different field, but the way of working now is so different from when I started. It feels like factory work / hamsterwheeling. It used to feel more like the work of an architect, a mixture of art and engineering.

That is an incorrect and baseless accusation, we had nothing to do with "Postgres (tuned)". My commits are only in the `hydra` folder. There are no restrictions on how you set up the benchmark in Clickbench and the settings we use there are analogous with what we use on our cloud service for a similar sized instance.

As the linked post points out, the main 'advantage' of the "tuned" benchmark is the indexes, which are tuned specifically to the queries in the benchmark. We do not use indexes in our version of the benchmark, aside from the primary key (which actually provides no performance advantage).
Slashdot solved it more than twenty years ago.
There's certainly a difference in terms of the possible severity of the impact of the two things, but that doesn't speak to whether or not they're both scam behavior.

If you're claiming things about your product or service that aren't true (even if they may become true eventually), and especially if you're faking evidence to support your lies, you're scamming.

I remember the marketing around it. I was so incredibly excited too. They really marketed it as having discovered a room temperature superconductor.

First: Google doesn't owe any site any traffic regardless of how much traffic it might have received in the past.

Second: If you want https://mail.tutanota.com/login to rank for "tutanota login" you should put the word "Tutanota" somewhere in the title tag of that page.

Additionally, Google has no cached version of that page so there's probably some technical problem (if past experience is any guide, the problem is not on Google's side). https://mail.tutanota.com/ also has no sitemap.xml or robots.txt file. It is extremely unlikely this is some conspiracy and more likely some failure of the most basic SEO measures.

This could equally be applied to statements like 'blacks are more stupid than whites'. Rather than anyone calling for Bostrom to be cancelled, most of the people posting here just wonder how a clever and academically successful person like Bostrom could have been oblivious to the factual and historical problems of such a broad generalization. One could equally wonder why he picked a racial trope as his controversial example, as opposed to challenging the conventional wisdom on nuclear weapons, or economics, or the superiority of rugby to association football, or the correct pronunciation of 'gif'.

>I don't know why people would go to out of state schools if they are concerned about money.

really depends on your state and your college aspects. Not all states are created equal in terms of education.

>where you may have family housing

There's also that. It's probably shifting these days, but commuter students had a reaction of "not getting the full college experience."

social interactions aside, there is some point to be made on how college can be a good preperation for self-preservation without the gaze of the increasing helicopter parenting methodology in your midst. Or simply a way to finally disengage with a bad family dynamic.
Which companies? Where can we read more about the no-TX design?
Probably the opposite of that- it seems likely that neanderthals were physically stronger, and may have even been smarter as well but we killed them off because we had more of the type of traits you're stereotyping them with: humans band together in large groups and systematically eliminate our competition through organized war/violence, politics, etc.

I think it's pretty ironic that humans have formed a cultural idea of us being superior to Neanderthals based on stereotyping them as having traits that are actually more characteristic of us.

Ask HN: Limitless: A New (to-good-to-be-true?) AI Gadget?
I spotted an ad for a new product in development (Shipping Q4) that seems to offer some very interesting features. However, I had some nagging doubts, even though the product is not all that expensive ($99 + $15 shipping). Limitless appears to be the new name for "Rewind.ai", and Rewind had a product called the Rewind Pendant, that has features a lot like the new Limitless pendant, and the old product was priced at only $59.

Has anyone here looked into the Limitless AI Pendant, and would you be willing to share your thoughts?
hnswlib, usearch. Both handle tens of millions of vectors easily. The latter even without holding them in RAM.
PGvector is very nice indeed. And you get to store your vectors close to the rest of your data. I'm yet to understand the unique use case for dedicated vector dbs. It seems so annoying, having to query your vectors in a separate database without being able to easily join/filter based on the rest of your tables.

I stored ~6 million hacker news posts, their metadata, and the vector embeddings in a cheap 20$/month vm running pgvector. Querying is very fast. Maybe there's some penalty to pay when you get to the billion+ row counts, but I'm happy so far.
I mean personally, I'm a straight-up Titoist. I don't think private enterprise should be allowed past small family companies.

The real indictment here isn't that Reddit serves bad advice, it's that Google is just bad at providing you with relevant information. This is a symptom of people trying to find real humans talking about stuff by slapping "reddit" on the front of every search, because the SEO garbage that rises to the top isn't worth a read.
Yes, it was glorious.
It's the last bastion of original content before the AI storm overruns search entirely.

And likely puts reddit firmly in the the AI farm crosshairs as well, so reddit will be overrun.

I think the only good content will be in archived discord channels, or obscure boards that aren't worth aiming AI farms at, but even then, it will probably get scanned and targeted.

The only thing that might work is identifying AI information vacuums by their distinct behavior and serving them counter-fake AI content, while user access patterns (as referenced in the above comments about Google-specific reddit robots infrastruction) get the "real stuff".

I almost wonder if intentional misspelling and curse words will start to be used to "scare off" AIs and bots from content, and that will become the new codewords for actual information. Like people online in China these days.
We have multiple form 3 printers at work too, and they are very slow! It takes an hour to automatically fill the resin tank (which I cheat by pouring myself) and supply costs are ridiculous. But I really like the rather consistent output quality and their software is awesome.

My comparisons are against my own printer, anycubic photon mono. I can get a new printer with the same price of a bottle of formlabs material :)

I have a family member who regularly gets care at the Raleigh (maybe Durham) VA and gives positive reviews.

So, it’s far from his only option.

You can teach a person the basics of a programming language like Python in a week... but that doesn't mean they'll be able to code effectively. Programming is at its heart a craft, the more that you actively practice it the more you'll improve. Aptitude and an affinity for logical thinking and problem solving go a long way as well.

It's like a foreign language, you can acquire a vocabulary of several thousand words using flashcards over a month, but that doesn't mean you're going to be able to actually communicate.

The Form 4 Open Platform pricing is still "TBD," and given the two licenses for the Form 3 differ by $3k, it makes me shudder to think what they'd charge for their newest toy

I heard about it years ago probably from WP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pager#Security

It's very inefficient because every tower must broadcast every message. This is why you can find an archive of pages from the morning of September 11th online, they transmitted unencrypted to a huge area.
