The categories left a bit to be desired (low starch can mean a lot -- is it high fat low protein, high protein low fat, balanced on both? How much fiber comes into play? And is it high saturated or unsaturated fats (as my recent stint with keto taught me to pay a lot more attention to)?), but it's an interesting preliminary study that addresses the gut-brain connection that seems to finally be getting a bit more air time.

Hopefully the results of this study can help shape future studies that can get a bit below the surface. I'd be hesitant to draw much in the way of a causal link here given the methodology, but I do expect that future research will uncover feedback loops given the interplay between food types and different gut flora. I can't claim to be an expert but my understanding of candida overgrowth effects would seem to be pretty telling about how far it can go at the extremes.

A research backed holistic health based meal prep program would be pretty attractive given the number of factors there are to balance, and how successful much more rudimentary programs already are when the goal is simply weight loss. We may have an interesting few decades ahead of us.

That is a great feature.

You can have those semantics in .net, because any hashable can be a dictionary key. It will have a small performance penalty, which won't matter in 99% of cases. You could roll your own collection and get O(1).

F# lets enum values be records, which is the most elegant solution IMO for manageable counts and fields.
What's the "obvious reason"?

The whole point of this article is .. [why] is Apple [secretly] paying to scrap phones in working condition, or that could be returned to working condition? This seems to contradict their stated environmental goals.
It's just conspiracy mumbo jumbo. Google was running a private airport that used to be ran by NASA, definitely outsiders lmao.[1]

"At times, Google has appeared to get more out of the deal than the government. Before the fighter jet purchased by Brin, Page and Schmidt was ready to start collecting atmospheric data for NASA, Google executives had already turned Moffett into their corporate airport, flying into or out of the airfield nearly 600 times, according to FAA records.

As the executives’ use of the airfield became increasingly controversial, NASA initially appears to have rejected their efforts to extend the deal beyond 2014. The space agency even explored the possibility of handing off Moffett Field to another government agency or a municipality. But members of the community and powerful Google allies in Congress intervened to lobby against such a move. In the end, NASA awarded a 60-year lease to a Google affiliate over a competing bid from a development firm that sought to open up the facility to more flights and outside tenants. "

The truth is simpler, whoever has money can get influence and power and use it until they lose it, and the outcomes we see are a result of these complex interactions of many actors with their own incentives.

Hi.
I've paid for access to ISO standards for PDF related work.
If you want to rank high (search, stores) you need to spend money on adwords and implemented adsense/admob. Approximately 30% on what you earn wiyh Adsense needs to be spend on Adwords. Only by completing that circle you can become part of the eco system.
Its very hard to rank high organically. Only if your name is Ronaldo or Coca Cola you have a chance. But otherwise you need to buy yourself in.
There are useful simplifications, and over simplifications.

As in a cartoon I once saw: two cats are talking, and one says of the human they're looking at: "it's a box of electronics, and when he presses buttons on the front, it flashes little coloured lights on that panel at him. It keeps him occupied for hours."

It's true and 100% accurate, but it's not at all precise.

It doesn't matter what kind of store it is. What matters is that it is an indirection mechanism designed for computers which were unable to access large amounts of directly-addressible non-volatile store.

Computers no longer suffer from this restriction, but all current OSes are built around this abstraction, and it cripples them.

I'm somewhat agoraphobic, and I always hated boarding airplanes, but I eventually found a way to avoid most of the bullshit: pick an aisle seat, and board the plane last or close to last on purpose.

It's a bit interesting to just sit there at the gate and watch people rush to get into the line as fast as possible. The plane leaves at the same time for everyone anyway. Crowd behaviour is a very strange and paradoxical thing sometimes.
You imply that lack of confidence is the most common issue one has to fix.

What if you're introverted, intellectual and not part of the bread & circus tribe (which should be the case for some people on HN)? What does "get out" mean, then? You won't see me at a nightclub, a bar or any place made for people to socialize over inane discussions, alcohol and crap "music".
The points you make are true, but all of the plagiarism I've commented about recently has been done by one person. It stretches across many Substack and Wordpress accounts. I imagine they have plagiarized plenty more posts that no one has spotted.

I've held off on giving the perpetrator's full real name, but it seems like naming them in a standalone post is going to be necessary.

For now, if you see submissions from user-generated content/blog sites, be very skeptical - even if the is dated years ago. This person often back-dates their stolen posts.
I do a lot to preserve my privacy.

The CGNAT makes it impossible for random websites to correlate my actions among them - which is something they try to do while profiling me. It is, as you point out, useless against state actors and similarly funded-and-legally-equipped bodies; For those, you indeed need Tor and VPN and likely that's not enough even then.

But I care about the civilian "spies" following me; like Facebook, Google, Microsoft, and friends. I use as little of their services as possible, with add blockers, a restrictive JS policy, ultra restrictive cookie policy, etc. It's unlikely any of them can correlate me with the other (or with myself from yesterday, for many uses). Giving me an externally imposed unique identifier (and a /64 prefix is just that, regardless of randomizing the remaining bits) makes it trivial for them and impossible for me -- unless I do all my browsing through Tor or something like that.

For the record, I have no proper FB or G account, but cannot avoid Whatsapp and an occasional Google product.

As someone who has heard talk about Quantum Computers for over a decade now, and never seen a single actual application, I would be very interested if you could provide examples of where I could make use of them right now for things that I couldn't do with classical computers. If they "do exist" and "are extremely useful" then I believe you have exactly what I am asking in mind?

Google Maps reviews are working like that and are often gamed.

If you pay close attention, you can spot fake reviews because they usually come from “Local Guides” (so supposedly the most trusted users).

Reddit is somewhat better at ranking and filtering spam, due to local mods, like there were in the times of web directories and webrings.

One of the former bosses of Google search explained that the key metrics they follow to consider the success of “Search” are the number of page views and the total revenue.

So if a user doesn’t find what he needs but keeps coming back it’s a win for them.
If you are traveling with hand luggage and it's a busy flight I try to board early so I can store it above myself, it very often happens that the overhead compartment is full and they ask you to store your luggage 5 rows behind you which is annoying (Especially on tight connections).
This is not a difference in countries but in the age of money in the family line and what parents tell kids they should value. There's a natural transition from doing well at business in one generation to then shift the family focus to policy be it in politics, philanthropy, or technical (mostly law and finance) roles of prestige in the bureaucracy (ie SEC, district attorney office) which are roles that you can swing for if you don't care about money. If the kids revolt against this they'll do the same low reward / high prestige move except they'll try to impress their friends instead of their family, and go into art.
> I believe that waste should be stored until something useful can be done with it --- on a long enough timescale, everything gets recycled eventually.

What happens if we assume the statement is true (as a thought experiment) and explore the ramifications? I see three key follow-up questions?

1. What valuation is implied by the above statement?

2. What do we mean by "waste"?

3. What are the salient differences between _burying_, _storing_, and _burning_?

Some answers to each:

1. It requires the future value, for some unbounded `t`, to exceed the present value. For this to be sensible, the cost of storage cannot dominate.

2. What is waste now is a function of our current economics* and technological level. Storing something indefinitely is an implicit bet that future changes to economics and/or technology will make recovery of item worth it relative to the cumulative storage and opportunity costs (including compounding).

3. In a broad sense, entropy. This applies to both the item stored (its internal state) and the energy required to locate it (i.e. location indexing). Put another way: entropy maps to more concrete concepts such as: cost of recovery, expected degradation, and ability to locate later.

* I don't mean to imply a narrow view of economics. What I actually mean is closer to the considerations from _political economy_.
> Most people, myself included, can't tell you what Dell or HP support is like because we've never had to use them. But every Apple user knows what Apple support is like, because every Apple user has had to use them.

That is such an absurd statement. You’re even italicising “every” (twice!) as if you’re really convinced it is true.

Hate is severely blinding you to reason. They’re just consumer electronics brands, they’re not eating your children. Calm down and think for a moment about your assertion. Maybe talk to some people outside of your circle.
If that's possible is very dependent on the airport facilities though.
Just pushed a fix changing "cos" to "\cos", looks much better. Thank you!
Yes, CGNAT can't give you any protection against state actors.

But if you are NOT under criminal investigation, having an IPv6 lets every single server on earth know who you are so they can correlate and profile you. That's happening with or without IPv6 of course, but is much less reliable through CGNAT - and essentially useless through a CGNAT if you have proper fingerprinting/cookie/js/3rd party protection. But if you HAVE IPv6, there is nothing you can do to remain anonymous except e.g. Tor.

If you have a mortgage, it is so meaningless it can bankrupt you.

If you don't have a mortgage, it is money you could spend. What, sadly, a lot of people consider "free money".
They usually are. Even a couple centuries ago, a lot of Europe’s elites back then didn’t even speak the language of their own country on a daily basis - they preferred French. The culture of their own country was often something they knew relatively little about. Also, they felt much stronger allegiance to the pan-European league of aristocrats, than to their own country. That’s the dynamics of having mega-wealth I guess.

People arrive late, people come from delayed connections, people have to use the bathroom. Not sure how that could work unless you have the exact same number of seats as the plane on every gate.
“Home mortgage interest.

You can deduct home mortgage interest on the first $750,000 ($375,000 if married filing separately) of indebtedness. However, higher limitations ($1 million ($500,000 if married filing separately)) apply if you are deducting mortgage interest from indebtedness incurred before December 16, 2017.”

I would suggest main value is in seeing how this thing still lives! It was designed for one lunar day and has survived 3. So for learning about what still works and what doesn't this is invaluable for future reliability engineering.
"better". There currently isn't a practical way to brute force factor a 4k rsa key with classical computing. doesn't shor's algorithm on a quantum computer make that feasible? that would be a big driver for quantum computing though maybe my understanding is off.

Thanks for trying to help but I really meant it can't be done, not that it doesn't work for me. This is the starting point for understanding why https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1678045 but that rabbit hole is pretty deep if you want to understand the whole web of consequences.
I think the solution to this is both unique and trivial: you cannot trust something that is freely expandable,or did not require some amount of stake from the other party. That stake can be anything, time, work or money.

If you want to trust a review, it's needs to have required a non expandable resource from the reviewer. That amount of resource should be an optimum of what an average user would be willing to expand without missing it (so that barrier of review is low), while being prohibitively expansive if an actor want to cheat the system and generate millions of reviews.
In my experience (and I just flew yesterday), about 30% of people were in the priority queue.
lol. "Cups"... No serious recipes there.
For every ISP serving my area, it is indeed a "per customer, immutable" prefix. IIRC, some have a 96-bit prefix, some have a /64, but that's the kind of thing that a "maxmind" style database of prefix length per isp lets you nail down easily -- if those databases don't already exist today, they will soon.

It's easier for the ISP to do it that way.
Not an authority in the matter, but afaik, with position encodings (part of the Transformers architecture), they can handle dimensionality just fine. Actually some people tried to do 2D Transformers and the results were the same.

Visual transformers are gaining traction and they are 100% focus in 2d data.
I heard that public companies listed on NYSE valued higher than similar companies listed in other countries. So at least some investors do care about the country.
Thank you kindly for the link (FYI, I've come across WLED in some demonstrations on YouTube) but I'm not sure how it improves things in my use-case?

I have two 8266s sitting waiting 24/7/365 for PIR triggers to then light up strings of LEDs for a (reset-able) length of time. That's it. This is achieved via (relatively simple) Arduino code using FastLED.

It's not entirely clear from the webpage, but it looks like WLED is partly a dashboard and partly a no-code environment to allow controlling LEDs, and setting them up from another device? Incorporating motion detection looks[0] quite[1] complex?

You need to know what the cable size is of the power strip and the current you are going to draw. If you have bar A with 14 ga cable plugged into the wall, and bar C With 18 gauge plugged into that, then with devices that don’t exceed C current rating (12 amps) and devices in A ( including the devices in C ) that don’t exceed A’s rating, you will be fine. The other way wall - C - A is the problem, C isn’t able to manage the full load.

Only buy known surge suppressor, there have been tear downs where the surge components were missing / fake.

Since surge comments are passive, chaining the surge components is not a problem.
I mean, it is ok, as long as everything is appropriately sized - I live entirely off grid, with several battery banks and inverters, which are essentially giant UPSs - and have regular UPSs for various equipment so that when I shut the power down for whatever reason the network and servers stay up.
The claim about fast fashion not lasting long is not necessarily about quality or durability. It’s more that the business model is about chasing short-lived trends such that the clothes are thrown out by stores or consumers after a short time because the trends they were following passed.
It is still open whether we can build quantum computers with sufficiently low noise to run Shor‘s algorithm.

> “My daughter made the reservation online for the ticket and the computer at the airport thought my birth date was 2022 and not 1922," she told me.

So it's a classic Y2K bug. Something is representing the year as two digits, meaning the century needs to be guessed, and the heuristic gives the wrong answer for this case.
"Since there is no objective definition of AGI or test for it, there’s no basis for any meaningful speculation on what can or cannot achieve it; discussions about it are quasi-religious, not scientific."

This is such a weird thing to say. Essentially _all_ scientific ideas are, at least to begin with, poorly defined. In fact, I'd argue that almost all scientific ideas remain poorly defined with the possible exception of _some_ of the basic concepts in physics. Scientific progress cannot be and is not predicated upon perfect definitions. For some reason when the topic of consciousness or AGI comes up around here, everyone commits a sort of "all or nothing" logical fallacy: absence of perfect knowledge is cast as total ignorance.
I'm not sure about your exact situation, lot of the scenarios are OK, just the one without Google services which are dependent on Google account doesn't work. That is actually irrelevant for "normal" phone users that are logged to Google all the time anyway.
Netherlands back then flourished thanks to being a trade superpower (similar to Venice a couple centuries earlier), not thanks to being open to immigrants. Poland was also extremely open to immigrants back then, but didn’t have the high seas trade and colonial empire - and didn’t do nearly as well as Netherlands did.
China passed data law after US and Europe, actually very similar law.

Also China does not stop companies to do business with Facebook and Google, if you look up numbers from Facebook and Google, a big chunk ad revenue would come from Chinese companies.
I live in a very social, active, healthy world.

Indeed, I don't have "friends" on Facebook / Instagram (I don't use those) - I talk to friends on the phone, meet them in person, we have message groups on various services.

Some of my friends do post on Facebook or Instagram; but they let me know personally if there's anything important I should know.

I'm a privacy-by-default kind of guy, yes.
An LLM doesn't even see individual letters at all, because they get encoded into tokens before they are passed as input to the model. It doesn't make much sense to require reasoning with things that aren't even in the input as a requisite for intelligence.

That would be like an alien race that could see in an extra dimension, or see the non-visible light spectrum, presenting us with problems that we cannot even see and saying that we don't have AGI when we fail to solve them.
I assume they were delicious.

Consideration: advertise by publishing under AGPL.

1) The A in front of GPL is the kind of advertisement that you always want to see.

2) It's hard to argue with a free product, so sales will be high!

3) Forget just ads as loss leaders. Do it to your entire code base!

4) You'll be hailed as a maniacal libre genius!

5) VC bosses will universally love you! Your career will flourish!

Joking aside, the market is open for another generation of authentic open source companies built on good free software, organic growth, and community based advertisement. It might be too extreme to apply to OP's situation, but anyone that needs to hear it should consider it as a powerful and extreme strategy!

Public DC chargers are orders of magnitude faster than domestic or "destination" chargers.

Modern BEVs typically need 30 minutes to charge from 10 to 80% (it slows down asymptotically above 80).

I have 150kW chargers around here (southwest UK), which add 80 miles of range in 10 minutes. My weekly shopping usually takes longer than the car needs to fully change.
