Do you and your friends in London all drive to work? Or do you walk/metro?

The lifestyle shift the grandparent poster was referring to is typical of suburban and rural areas, but not really urban areas. I suspect people in more rural parts of the UK are very different from your London cohort.
Some people have memories in which they see themselves from a third person view. Not to say that your memories are false, but for scientific purposes, anecdotal evidence is probably even less trustworthy than experimentation in mice.

I once asked my then 3 year old niece some things about her 2nd year birthday party, and she seemed to remember some things correctly.

What do you think about the hypothesis that if you actively try to remember things, that memories are reinforced? Do you happen to know whether you repeatedly thought back of the toy boat etc, even when you were young?

Seems to be more than a one off odd photo and an artifact of something the pixel does re: image processing.
The US is an odd case where there is no central government ID or identification base layer. There are many independent authorities that can issue an ID, none of which are universally provisioned or recognized by governments within the country. This creates enough edge cases that it is essentially required to be possible to bootstrap an identity from negligible formal documentation, which is also a rather large loophole.
Most people know about Google and can find how to turn it off, including in the Home edition.

Author of the WebGL volume rendering tutorial [0] you mentioned in the readme here, great work!

Working in WebGL/JS is nice since you can deploy it everywhere, but it can be really hard for graphics programming as you've found because there are very few tools for doing real GPU/graphics debugging for WebGL. The only one I know of is [1], and I've had limited success with it.

WebGPU is a great next step, it provides a modern GPU API (so if you want to learn Metal, DX12, Vulkan, they're more familiar), and modern GPU functionality like storage buffers and compute shaders, not to mention lower overhead and better performance. The WebGPU inspector [2] also looks to provide a GPU profiler/debugger for web that aims to be on par with native options. I just tried it out on a small project I have and it looks really useful. Another benefit of WebGPU is that it maps more clearly to Metal/DX12/Vulkan, so you can use native tools to profile it through Chrome [3].

I think it would be worth learning C++ and a native graphics API, you'll get access to the much more powerful graphics debugging & profiling features provided by native tools (PIX, RenderDoc, Nvidia Nsight, Xcode, etc.) and functionality beyond what even WebGPU exposes.

Personally, I have come "full circle": I started with C++ and OpenGL, then DX12/Vulkan/Metal, then started doing more WebGL/WebGPU and JS/TS to "run everywhere", and now I'm back writing C++ but using WebGL/WebGPU and compiling to WebAssembly to still run everywhere (and native for tools).

With WebGPU, you could program in C++ (or Rust) and compile to both native (for access to debuggers and tools), and Wasm (for wide deployment on the web). This is one of the aspects of WebGPU that is most exciting to me. There's a great tutorial on developing WebGPU w/ C++ [4], and a one on using it from JS/TS [5].

This data might just be unreliable. It had a weird spike in Dec 2021 that looks unusual compared to all the other frameworks.
According to a common definition, moralism involves judgment, but not necessarily imposition. From Wikipedia:

> The term has been used in a pejorative sense to describe the attitude of "being overly concerned with making moral judgments or being illiberal in the judgments one makes".

There is also the 19th century Moralism movement/philosophy, which may have inspired the more general sense of the word, but I’m not sure.

I think we should all step back and question whether we all even mean the same thing by the word “imposition”. When I think about imposition, I can see how people could interpret that to mean a wide range of things, including social pressure, religious rules, as well as the force of law. This is why (above) I interpret moralism (the general term) as a kind of judgment, but not necessarily an imposition of rules or punishments.

A cool property of volume rendering is that it requires much simpler calculations than other 3D rendering problems. It's simple enough that you can use Homomorphic Encryption to calculate the rendering of _encrypted_ medical data!

If you can't stream data the user is sending through the server to the database you have to buffer the entire payload in memory. This doesn't scale well but can work for smaller payloads.

You CAN stream bytea but:

* Good luck finding a client that supports it(npgsql does actually)

* It doesn't support support start the read/write at any location other than the start. So you'd have to basically build the Lob(Large Object) functionality yourself on top to support upload resume and other use cases.

With Lob even if your client doesn't support streaming, you can mimick it by writing chunks into the Lob.
Are you sure your taxes are used to fund the municipal Internet? In my locality they issued a bond to fund the initial trenching, and use the subscription fees to pay back that bond and fund the long term operation. No taxes are paying for it, people who are not using the municipal Internet don't pay anything for it.

Do you still oppose municipal Internet in that case?

Maybe your locality is different, but before we got municipal Internet we had basically 3 choices: Xfinity at $180/mo for ~gig down/120M (something in that ballpark) up, CenturyLink with 40Mbps or less DSL (antiquated infrastructure, they actively blocked CLECs from doing anything that could improve it), or terrestrial wireless (fairly sketchy in our environment).

Once we got municipal broadband, we finally got fiber to the house, gigabit symmetric, great customer support, and latency that was 10x lower, AND Xfinity dropped their prices.
I quit social media in 2012, when I was 22 and often, it feels like I live in a completely different universe.

GitHub, and a few tech forums, is about the closest thing, and I guess it is basically a full social media platform at this point, but I try to keep to on topic technical discussion, and stay out of the political cesspool that seems to have infected every aspect of society at this point.
Good question! If I knew how to do it, I'd probably write this in just TypeScript. Turns out I don't know how to set that up. So I instead start with Vite and throw React in there to handle rerenders and simple state management. I think R3F is interesting, but I never used it because it makes graphics programming too front-endy.

The most important reason for my code structure is that I just like writing GLSL shaders! It's annoying that I need to set up Vite, TypeScript, Tailwind, React, etc. all so that I can write some shaders. I know I can write shaders in ShaderToy, but then I won't be able to upload custom 3D texture files or add simple user controls.

Self-organizing still leads to bosses, but they just get paid like regular workers.

My company does this sort of thing but with dev chapter leads. The chapter leads have no management training and no authority. They don't even really know what you're doing since they're on a separate team and have their own coding work. They're senior devs that have added management responsibilities and are just paid as senior devs. Fuck that.
One hour of reasonably intensive cardio burns 500~600 kcal. If you have two such workouts a week it comes down to an increased energy use of 2600/(72500) = 7%. Or a large meal. Just looking at the numbers it seems spending some time at the gym is not going to do much for loosing weight. Or said differently: eating 7% less is easier.

Not sure about this. Herman Pontzer's work shows that the body adapts by burning fewer calories later, so your energy expenditure is the same. Burning 600 calories with exercise means burning 600 fewer later, like burning fewer calories during sleep or fidgeting less.
> Has anyone claimed technological changes will impact every group and subgroup on a literally equal basis?

No, but too much inequality is not sustainable. Since in a democracy everyone has an equal vote, there will be a force that balances things out over time one way or another.
> You lose the ability to set system directories for installation to non-default versions using options of configure; instead, you have to tweak the variable definitions in your makefiles directly. Same applies to options custom for your project.

This is probably the biggest loss. Maybe it's possible to preserve this with bare makefiles?

Or maybe make -DSOMETHING would already work anyway?

IIUC then penzai is (deliberately) sacrificing support for higher-order operations like `lax.{while_loop, scan, cond}` or `diffrax.diffeqsolve`, in return for some of the other new features it is trying out (treescope, effects).

So it's slightly more framework-y than Equinox and will not be completely compatible with arbitrary JAX code. However I have already had a collaborator demonstrate that as long as you don't use any higher-order operations, then treescope will actually work out-of-the-box with Equinox modules!

So I think the answer to your question is "sort of":

* As long as you only try to inspect things that are happening outside of your `diffrax.diffeqsolve` then you should be good to go. And moreover can probably do this simply by using e.g. Penzai's treescope directly alongside your existing Equinox code, without needing to move things over wholesale.

* But anything inside probably isn't supported + if I understand their setup correctly can never be supported. (Not bashing Penzai there, which I think genuinely looks excellent -- I think it's just fundamentally tricky at a technical level.)

However, giving you a short answer, we use Lua mainly because it's easy both to extend and to embed. It's implemented as an almost "freestanding" C library. Moreover, it has a considerable small footprint (~250 KB) in comparison to other scripting languages (e.g., Python has a few MB). Moreover, Lua has automatic memory management, fully isolated execution states, protected calls, among other features.
> My experience with high school biology was similar, though that might have been that particular teacher. He was close to retirement and while he could have identified most plants in the region, he could not answer most of my questions about biochemistry.

That's a totally different problem. Nobody can expect a teacher (or scientist, or ...) to be equally interested in all subfields. Of course, they should know "what is needed" - whatever that means, for example to teach the part of biochemistry that is in the curriculum.
I, as a mathematician, for example don't care much about statistics or number theory. As somebody generally interested in biology I don't care about biochemistry.
So, as long as he didn't just say "fuck off", you can't blame your teacher for liking something else than you did.
I would assume it'd also work with literal Page Up/Down keys, however that is exposed for keyboards when using Bluetooth. The important part is having that on the phone itself, placed such that when you hold it with one hand, the thumb is conveniently placed on the page down key, so that one only needs to push slightly to flip to the next page. That's what makes Android phones so convenient for reading over long periods of time compared to iPhones, where you have to lift the thumb and tap the screen for every page.
The brilliance of Meta's strategy here is: if they offer a (F?)OSS model at near-performance compared to leaders, they commoditize the product of their would-be competitors. Meta doesn't have to make money on API calls, but they could face an existential risk if someone else built the everyday AI companion of the future (e.g. users on ChatGPT UI, microsfoft's much advertised "copilot for everyday").

So -- a defensive play with some positive externalities (e.g. developer ecosystem mindshare + roadmap control, ability to use within their own products at cost, without giving up margin to suppliers).
Sure, I can agree with that. Just because the API is bad doesn't mean you can treat it as though it's the API you wish it were.

Can you share your data on starvation in the US? I’m sincerely curious about it.
If you're using them mostly for stuff like data extraction (which seems to be the vast majority of productive use so far), there are many models that are "good enough" and where GPT-4 will not demonstrate meaningful improvements.

It's complicated tasks requiring step by step logical reasoning where GPT-4 is clearly still very much in a league of its own.

Been coding in Java since the late 1990s with v1.0.2 and continue to this day with v21. Java has been and remains a comparative memory hog. Yes, it is still popular, but it is far less popular than it used to be for greenfield projects.

Go: just as fast to code in as Java with a similarly shallow learning curve. Ridiculously better for targets like AWS Lambda compared to Java, even with the advent of GraalVM.

Rust: much steeper learning curve than any listed here, but can be optimized for both CPU and RAM usage to an extent no garbage collected language can match without the outsized memory integrity issues found in other systems level languages like C or C++.

For AWS Lambda, GraalVM is three times worse by latency during cold starts and double the RAM of Go. Java proper is over five times worse by latency during cold starts and over five times the RAM usage, disqualifying it for the smallest Lambda size.

You can implement a fully functional REST server in Rust in less than 20MB of RAM while it's in use with Actix or Axum and almost no CPU time. Java can get close to this in CPU efficiency, but I'd be astounded if you can even start the service in less than 50MB, and as soon as the first few requests come in, you're in the hundreds of megabytes in no time.

These scenarios may not matter to you, but they matter to a lot of folks today and even more tomorrow.

So here we are: TS/JS on the browser, often on the server, and the primary language for infrastructure tools like the AWS CDK. Go allows for much more efficient code than JS/TS on the backend once you start hitting the limits. Rust takes you to the absolute limits of the metal without compromising safety. It's not that Java couldn't fit in this mix. It's that there's no need for Java in that list. Java can't run in the browser, isn't anywhere near the best fit for lambdas, uses more resources for the same task (higher costs) in containers/K8s, and hits a hard limit for optimization at the systems level. Again, Java's definitely not going away, but it's clearly no longer the default choice for greenfield in a growing number of orgs.
