On the flip side, if you reveal to people that you are involved in Lisp, the experiences are varied.

All too often you get ignorant remarks, jokes about parentheses or "contents of address register", or outright ridicule.

If you say anything frank at that point, chances are good you might come off as an asshole.

The chance onnx becomes significantly relevant here went from 1% to 15% this week. They're demo'ing ~2x faster inference with Phi-3. There's been fits and starts on LLMs in ONNX for a year, but, with Wintel's AI PC™ push, and all the constituent parts in place (4 bit quants! adaptive quants!), I'd put very good money on it.
Caloric deficit is definitely true. The hard part is the implementation.

For example, I was supposed to meal prep ingredient for taco for this week so that I can have lunch, but I procrastinated and instead had noodle and ate out for a family occasion.

It used to be worse. For example, I had an expensive addiction to all you can eat hotpot.
There are cultures in which obesity is rare and yet they achieve it without drugs and surgery. That itself is pretty strong evidence that the claim that they're the only things that could possibly help is wrong. I'm glad those are options, because they certainly do help people, but if you take that and run with "welp, more pharma is the only way!" then you're not thinking very hard.

People that complain about “regulatory burden” and “taxation” don’t have any specific complaints, just vague platitudes that may or may not be true depending on what you’re talking about.

It doesn’t make any sense to talk about the number of regulations. What matters is what those regulations are. Likewise, it doesn’t make sense to talk about the amount of taxation without talking about who is being taxed.
It's crazy how much more expensive fast food is than groceries nowadays. [1] I feel like 10y ago the difference wasn't as large.

Restaurants are hit or miss. My nicer local places are more expensive but not like fast food.

Generally, it's as great a time as ever to know how to cook stuff from scratch with whatever is on sale.

[1] I paid $8 and change (BOGO) for ten locally-grown, free range boneless chicken thighs last week and grilled them up. Sandwiches, pasta, wraps, chicken salad all week. $8 doesn't even buy a 6pc McNugget meal where I live.
Not that incongruent; look at Chinese EVs. Or TikTok.

Historically protectionism was a major part of how the US developed its economy but typically countries become less protectionist once they have highly developed economies (because free trade tends to benefit them more).
I hear Minecraft is popular.

I use JDownloader sometimes, it's totally fine. Weka is bad, but not worse than other academic apps.
Alright, if not for that one job posting, I’m curious where you are getting this information from?
DRY is about modularization and identifying higher level abstractions when possible (and useful). When you have a domain driven mindset, it's much easier to put in practice. But really, you need to learn how to balance things. And you can only get that natural intuition with practice, lots of practice. If you give up early and think repeating is ok all the time, then you will never gain that intuition.

Regarding mocks, there are mocks that can hurt you and mocks that will help you. Mocks that can hurt you are mocks you generate by hand and it represents an idea of what production is, or maybe the untested, specified contract. Mocks that help you are the ones that are automatically generated representing actually what production has. Mocks like these have saved me from potential P1s many times - and millions in business losses. In an ideal world, I wouldn't need mocks, but also in an ideal world LLMs would do my testing.

I joined HN back in 2008 and I am mostly a lurker, but when I see an article that just plainly promotes bad practices with no samples of code or without going in depth. An article that would have been voted down or ignored to oblivion back in the early days of HN. I have to say something. I have seen enough bad code (specially in recent years) - I am afraid the new generation is getting their tips from all the wrong places.
Aluminium casting (assuming already metallic aluminium) is vastly simpler than getting iron/steel from ore. Sure you could remelt scrap metals, but in "deep future" where all metals have corroded away you seemingly can't restart industries on Earth, our only option is not to let ourselves collapse.
I mean, yeah, you could also just target foreign businesses at the same time.
> The danger of ai has nothing to do with what the average Joe might try to do

Why not both? With the story of a high school principal being framed by a coworker who deep faked a racist anti-semitic rant that the principal didn't say, I'd say the danger of AI also has to do with what an average Joe that wants to cause you harm can do. That doesn't diminish the threat from corporations, but a jilted lover can now ruin your life in additional ways.

The phisics is more acccurate than what I expected. For example, if you put an egg, it braks if it's placed too high. Also, butter melts at high temperature.

But legally, [non-Jewish citizens of Israel] have the same rights as any other Israeli citizen, including voting rights.

How does this square with the Nation-State Law, which states that the former group has precisely zero rights to "self-determination"? And while you're at it, can you tell as about the Citizenship and Entry into Israel Law and how that affects the right to apply for citizenship rights for one's spouse, in practice?

(Correcting the term used for this group, given that the vast majority of them do not self-describe as "Israeli", per numerous polls).
I am. I'm working a on a AI Agent/Chatbot, with enhanced multi-modal capability [1].

It's still early, and since I'm still learning Python and Gen AI/LLM in general, it's a bit difficult. But I've got too fascinated to learn experimenting on building my own AI Agent or just Chatbot, that could helps me, first to learn, secondly to help me with learning about new models capability and LLM landscape.

And I also open source it, fully.

My mantra is learn by doing, and by doing, I also want to share with everyone in the open source community since most stacks and resources I use to built it is from GitHub.

Don't be fooled, while it is nice they do this, at the end of the day it is just greenwashing.

They design their laptops in such way that they are not (easily) repairable, and the failure of one component could mean replacement of the entire logic board. And echoing the parent comment, if you think 8G/256GB is good enough at the time of purchase but find it unusable because of a change in the way you use your computer, the only option is to trade-in/sell it instead of just upgrading them. (The vast majority ofWindows laptops on the market has a replaceable SSD.)

It's 15% for almost all developers, not 30%.
Phi 3 has a unique architecture that needed some additions to llama.cpp's conversion script. Also Phi 3 is an absolute mess, there's no reliable way to latch on to when it's done writing a message and no one wants to admit it, people are patching around it instead.

ex. I could condition on "\n\n
||
||<|user>", but it'd still be wrong.

Pretty much everything Phi 3 feels like it needed to all come out within 48 hours a month too early. The ONNX genai library doesn't work on Mac, at all, the mobile SDKs don't support it...sigh
Weird to compare a brand new Apple computer with an obsolete version of Windows, as if it's some kind of victory lap.
it’s not a given that prices must rise that much. In-n-out raised their burger prices by $0.25.
I remember mid-90s it was typical for a home computer to come with a prominent tutorial on mouse usage. There was definitely one for MacOS 7, while I don't recall if there was an official Microsoft tutorial for 90s Windows or just ones provided by OEMs.
Chrome supported this for a long time and it really helped small developers outside of Google be able to build chrome without specialist machines.

But that feature was pulled by the chrome team with the stated justification being that since C++ guaranteed different things (iirc around variable scopes outside of a namespace) for one file vs multiple files, supporting the jumbo build option meant writing some language that was "not C++".

Unfortunate.
I tend to agree, and we do this a lot actually. But it gets a little more complicated if you have several .env files.

Would love to hear more about why dotenv is banned at your org though.

It's not really a notch, think of it as two extra tabs instead. They are extra above the 16:10 screen and move the menu and clock off it.
This is something that definitely chafes. Even in a large-company enterprise environment, so many worthy & legitimate projects never end up shipping due to financial or office-politics reasons. Putting up paywalls between devs and their work that they to spend both time and money on is bloody stupid.
Maybe but not neccesarily by a long shot .. "Uncle" the english word used in any number of pidgin variation is a note of respect for an older man who isn't necc. a blood relative.

In various tongues there are more precise words for more complicated blood | marriage relations .. so "uncle" is mostly generic, but often will mean an elder from the same group, whether family or not (but likely).

Notable country wide uncles include https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archie_Roach https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Charles
This is not enough to establish causality.

• Early risers. Nearly 8 in 10 participants eat breakfast every day, but while many observational studies show an association between breakfast eating and either weight loss or simply lower BMI, clinical studies haven’t found a causal connection8,9—and a 2016 study found that NWCR participants were more likely to be “morning types” and report better sleep quality and duration than control participants currently enrolled in a weight loss intervention.10 “I think increasingly we’ll find there’s a lot of reciprocal patterns,” Thomas says. “Having an early start to the day is connected to eating breakfast, which could help, and getting to the end of your day and feeling good about your choices could motivate you to continue your healthful choices and help you get to bed earlier.”

This can be explained by dieters skipping dinner or having early dinner and going to be hungry and hence hypoglycemic in the morning and craving food, hence early awakening and eating breakfast.
I bought the iPad to do mostly three things: browse web, send emails, watch video, and take notes.

I also wish there were better more inventive apps.
Kudos to you. I would be quite flattered to have built a thing that competes with what a small startup built.

Absolutely. Unless you do some very vigorous exercise for many hours per week it’s not going to make much of a dent. I remember jogging for an hour (I’m out of shape) and it was very difficult - I felt like getting a pizza afterwards as a reward. That would have been something like -500 calories from the jog, +2000 from the whole pizza == +1500 net.

After many years of doing it wrong - now I go with low calorie and high protein meals until dinner. ~150 calories for breakfast for example and no snacking. Once I got used to being hungry most of the day, weight loss actually became realistic.
We're still waiting for an answer to this most crucial question that you were asked above, as to what should happen once Palestine becomes truly "free":

What do you think should happen to the 9 million Israeli citizens on that land currently (or 7 million Jews if you prefer to split it by ethnicity)?
That is because that particular fast-food chain was already paying most of its workers more than the new minimum wage.
Because I banned it haha. There should not be more than one .env file. Our projects have a .env.example that has any overrides a dev might want to override but this list is kept intentionally very short. Meanwhile .env is noted in gitignore. I absolutely hate seeing an entire application configured with environment variables. Some? Sure, where it makes sense. Most? No, those should be in version control, secrets aside.

I believe in convention over configuration. Most of our apps have hard-coded config, with a concise/short and finite number of things that can be overridden (like 3-4 parameters, tops). Secrets get injected.

I do subscribe to the idea of the 12 factor app, but there is a line that needs to be drawn between env config which is more dynamic and more persistent config that should be baked in to the release.
it is even worse than that. the energy constrained model suggests it is impossible to ever work off a pizza. you just simply burn fewer calories later to negate exercise, such as lowed BMR or less NEAT. As you lose weight, your constraint is lowered and any calories above it will produce weight gain regardless of exercise.

The constraint throws off all the calorie math in regard to exercise. You find that no amount of exercise helps at producing lasting weight loss even if the meter/app says you burned 700 or whatever, which is .2 lbs. If you do this for 10 days you should lose 2 pounds of fat , keeping diet constant, but you don't. Either you lose less or just water.
It's because a lot of it is fashion, doesn't matter if you have an old working shirt, need new shirt.
Ha, I came here to comment that it can’t possibly be as good as this[1] homelab that I saw on Reddit recently…then I realized it’s the same guy. Seriously incredible.

I don’t understand how a law can expect someone to foresee and quantify potential future damage. I understand the impetus to hold companies responsible, but that is simply impossible to know.
The way I tie these together in phrasing it to teams is to ask yourself “Is this _necessarily_ the same or _coincidentally_ the same?”.

Code which is necessarily the same might be something like “how to calculate an invoice total”. If you need to calculate totals in multiple places, you can’t calculate different totals for the same invoice. Have a single source of truth for this.

Code which is coincidentally the same might be something like “well, to get an invoice total we add up all these prices multiplied by quantity… and this spreadsheet we’re importing has the product cost and a multiplier to reach a desired profit, so that’s the same dollar amount multiplied by a number again!”. Creating a single implementation for this will only cause pain.

Even if these things are the same _right now_, there’s nothing saying they must remain the same. And as they diverge, you are going to be either creating brittle franken-code that causes bugs in seemingly-unrelated parts of the application when you make (slow, tedious) changes, or you’re going to keep only the repeated logic as it evolves and you will make the code more and more generic until it provides no useful abstraction whatsoever.

Don’t repeat things that must be the same. Do repeat things that just happen to be the same _right now_.
ICT departments in many large companies often force dev teams to use certain tools, because it's what's on their list of 'approved tools for devs'. Getting new tools on this list is often stonewalled for usually office-politics reasons.

Sometimes devs are locked into the tools they use. This situation is shit, but not uncommon.
I don't think you "get rid of" UAC, you just put the author's name on the screen instead of unknown publisher. (And why do you need elevated privilege? Most applications don't) unless you are referring to "smart screen" which is a very different thing, although quite similar from a user's perspective.
To your last point, Bentley software is standard for most DOTs for highway design. All their offerings are rife with quality issues to the point that I have never run their software without some spooky behavior requiring a reset or flushing the ProjectWise cache.

For software enabling a $150B industry, you would think it would at least run reliably. That there aren't objects that are aware that they are roads (just lines, arcs, and spirals) makes it laughably bad. The cost of this waste is tragic.
The way Crystal and Dart 2 handles it? Null as a separate and unique type unrelated to Object where type unions solve the problem using syntax like `String?` that is equal to `String | Null`.
I like the system you have in place for it. I feel like I've been doing the same thing subconsciously without realizing how to verbalize it when others make that kind of mistake in code reviews. There's a difference between two methods that look similar and therefore should "reuse" code versus two methods that are referring to the same requirement and where if anything about that requirement changes then both methods should change even if the methods themselves look nothing alike.

IE keep my current job with the pay rate, but change the balance of hours worked.
And if it doesn't work how I like, go back to full time.

I like the idea of studying physical design... but we'll see how that pans out.
The line I like to pull out is: things that look alike may not be alike.

BetterDisplay[0] can even change the display mode to just use the display area below the notch (which is the same 16:10 that older MacBooks had). Probably noticeable on a MacBook Air, but on a MacBook Pro, the local dimming makes the unused area look exactly like the bezel.

It does have crossover, doesn't it?

There's a GitHub link at the bottom which gives us this:

https://github.com/red42/HTML5_Genetic_Cars/blob/master/src/...

And that seems to call into createCrossBreed() in here:

https://github.com/red42/HTML5_Genetic_Cars/blob/master/src/...

And that gets a parentChooser callback, which seems to be cw_chooserParent() from here:

https://github.com/red42/HTML5_Genetic_Cars/blob/master/src/...

And that has some swap points and a thing that toggles between parents when some index matches one of two values.

I'm not really a JS programmer or a GA expert, but it looks like crossover to me.
The USA has trouble targeting foreign businesses who do most of their business outside of the USA. Its like, they can't tell SAP they should be using Americans to address an account in Taiwan, WTF? Google has plenty of offices around the world, but it is pretty proportional to the amount of business it does around the world also! So telling Google they need to serve everyone around the planet with American workers while SAP gets to use whatever because it isn't American, Google would quickly become a German company instead of an American company. You can't have American companies playing by overly restrictive rules if you can't force the rest of the world to play by those same rules, and America's influence to do that...unless it conquers even its allies, is limited.
You would think a California company would be smart and brand their products as “designed in USA” (like their Silicon Valley counterparts) and have “made in foreign country” in small print either on the box or hidden in the instruction manual

And the human performers of many of these tasks have been replaced not by AIs but by VBA scripts. It's almost a trope that many Hackernews' first jobs were something of this type, and on the first day they wrote a VBA script to do most or all of it and then collected pay for, effectively, playing Minesweeper all day.
Where does this pervasive notion that once the bombs drop humanity is completely wiped out come from? Any official literature on the topic, even the most pessimistic takes, don't come anywhere close to proposing this. There's absolutely no study produced by any country that says that only people in the most extreme situations (like huddled in the bottom of a deepest mine) would survive. The outside radiation levels from a full-scale nuclear exchange would return to 99% of normal levels within something like only 3 weeks. Yes there would be nuclear winter to contend with, although different sources conflict with each other about how significant the nuclear winter would be, and yes, lots of people would surely die and develop cancer in the aftermath, I'm not denying that, but humans would have absolutely no issue going on and surviving. There's no chance that full nuclear exchange ends humanity. Civilization as we know it, yes. Humanity, no.

One of the things I like about modular is that the v/octave CV standard imposes no assumptions on what kind of scale you're using. 12-tone equal temperament is pretty easy to use, but there's nothing forcing you to that scale if you don't want to use it. (Some modules and MIDI to CV devices have built-in scale assumptions, but it's not baked in to Eurorack modular at the protocol level.)

Amen. I've tried more-or-less starving myself just by not having any food in the house other than healthy food ingredients that require significant time and attention to cook. I also went for 3 weeks without eating once, other than drinking 0 calorie hydration beverages, multivitamin, and fish oil to keep the gallbladder moving. My current strategy involves avoidance of food whenever possible.
