Agreed, speaking from experience taking a long break from alcohol does wonders to reset the brain’s idea of what’s “normal” plus the simple act of just disrupting an engrained habit.

Won’t be the case for everyone but I think even taking it for a limited amount of time could do a lot for a certain type of excessive drinker.
Can you remind me what the issue with software R&D amortization (or point me to something that explains it)? I remember reading about the issue in the past and thinking it was a problem, but I've forgotten all the details.

There is a small typo on your application form. It has the word "providence" where you probably meant "province." I would have emailed this but no contact info.
Hah! You answered my question re how is it different. It’s strange… I re-read your comment twice a with a furrowed brow: “provided by RDP like in the example” and kept thinking to myself “what? There was a screenshot clearly showing…” yada yada SMB. So I went back to the look at the image in the readme. /smh. You know how they say eyewitness testimony is often among the least accurate, even immediately after the incident in question, yet the eyewitness is always so sure, “but I just saw it and…” Wow. Mind playing tricks on me.

Anyway, you’re right, there was no SMB involved in that readme. :-) So strange when you can’t trust your own eyes or short-term memory. Crazy.

About me:

I am a Frontend Engineer/Developer with over 4 years of experience, I have spent my time engineering user interfaces, optimizing website loading speed, creating smooth animations, enhancing accessibility/WCAG score, and improving code coverage using Playwright. Additionally, I have experience in automating tasks using bash/python and implementing CI/CD using Github actions.

I am actively seeking roles in Software Engineering, Frontend Development, and Test Automation that are fully remote and can accommodate an overlap with the EU/US time zones. Thank you

We do see exactly that, diets are infamously ineffective at keeping weight off.

This computer which was similar to the C128

https://www.computinghistory.org.uk/det/46843/Tandy-Color-Co...

was highly compatible with the earlier TRS-80 Color Computer and didn't have a special compatibility mode. The C128 was more radical though because it added another CPU and compatibility with CP/M software.

I think those "8 bit" machines were on the run at that point. There just had been an attempt to make super-low cost machines to compete with the Timex-Sinclair

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timex_Sinclair_1000

which resulted in machines like the

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRS-80_MC-10

but the world was really going in the opposite direction of a computer that was more expensive and a lot more capable in the guise of the "PC Compatible". In 1981 you could point to CP/M as the high end microcomputer OS for business applications but in 1985 when the C128 came out, the business software market was moving decisively towards MS-DOS and the PC. So I'd say putting the Z-80 in the C128 was a mistake, particularly because the Z-80 didn't add anything when the machine wasn't in its third mode, had it been a coprocessor which made the C128 mode better it might have been a different story.
IIUC, it depends how the patient would lose that weight. Afaict, these drugs work by lowering appetite overall and making people poop out lots of food before it's fully digested. If the patient macros are still bad, the same proportions as before the drug, they'll have deficiencies such as protein, fiber, electrolytes, vitamins (esp fat-soluble ones), etc. But hopefully it's just for short term. (star)

So to get back to your question, one could lose the weight in the best possible way by correcting their diet, eating less, doing HIIT, fasting, good supplements like creatine, stress reduction through breath work and meditation, and resistance training and end up in a very strong position.

Please anyone correct me on this.

(star) Anecdote about my friend: He went on Metformin for a few years, had lots of diarrhea, and lost about 30 pounds and is skinnier than me. At this point, he could really really get into a strong health position having had that shortcut. His eating habits even got a little better from wearing a glucose monitor. He's sick of the diarrhea which really keeps him from wanting to be out of the house for long, and is slowly looking for some intriguing physical activities. So I think these drugs can help people.
It is interesting that you have current YC head lobbying for small and open, while previous lobbies for large and private and is a big driver in why the government wants to regulate so much already.

Thought experiment, if YC had not allowed for or jump started OpenAI would they even have to be lobbying now for openness and “little tech” (at least for AI side of things)?

What are you basing this assertion on?

Do you have any data to back this up?

Why do you think that only extreme solutions are available?

> Realistically, if we want results this century

I don't think there's anything realistic in what you've proposed.

Isn't the restriction just on the reception side? So, if you have a MCU talking to a PC or another MCU, you can send however many bytes you want, but not receive? I say this because A: The Reference Manual only indicates this limit for reception, and B: I only experienced this on reception: PCs seem capable of sending and receiving messages larger than 64-bytes, and STM32s seem capable of sending messages larger than 64-bytes, but not receiving (without isosynchronous, or anything special)

I don't see how this can be accepted and yet "just following orders" is viewed negatively.
And a sixth factor, North-West Europe's backwardness in anthropological terms, which enabled labour mobility, moving to where the work was.

Most of Eurasia had a communitarian family form, in which adult sons and their spouses lived with their parents, and were married young, while still economically dependent on them.

In NW Europe the ancient neolocal nuclear family form was still in use. Adult children moved out of the parental home on their own marriage. This meant they could move to wherever there were good work prospects rather than being stuck on the family farm.

In nearly all of Eurasia getting the necessary urban workforces would have been a difficult job.

Hard disagree.

Healthy relationships include negotiating when potential boundaries are in question, or if things change that require re-aligning boundaries.

It's reasonable to give more to the other party from time-to-time, and reasonable to discuss with the other party if it becomes a point where it feels unfair.

Instead we (Americans) take an unnecessarily adversarial stance against what our government could do, ensuring it is perpetually unprepared.
This isnt new. Twitter has allowed adult content for a very long time.
I assume they're referring to Section 174 changes. Here's a primer: https://blog.pragmaticengineer.com/section-174
Rust's PathBuf uses an OsString as backing, which is merely a sparkling Vec<u8>. Displaying a PathBuf or OsString requires an explicit request to either validate that it is valid Unicode which can be handled by the caller, or for a "lossy string" where invalid Unicode codepoints get replaced with �. That's on the presentation side, going path -> user visible string.

On the user provided string -> path case, if you start with accepting String then the conversion is merely a transmute, but some paths can't be represented by your users. If you allow any bytes to be passed in, taking from the user a Vec<u8>, then you can create an OsString and PathBuf without allocation while also allowing to represent any legal (and illegal) path.

The verification of the legality of a path occurs when accessing a file, which is already a fallible operation that you must handle. The path might contain invalid characters for the FS, but the file might also just be missing, or inaccessible, so error handling at that point is not really optional.

Note that Rust's PathBuf/Path don't do canonicalization by default, to account for symlinks and the like. If you want to canonicalize, you have fs::canonicalize which does FS calls to get the right path, and path::canonicalize which doesn't access the FS, assuming that foo/.. will be equivalent to .
It's not impossible. But if one says "Rust is bad", they better elaborate, unless their goal was to post a meaningless comment.

>Yes, these open models could stand to be more open and I hope that we'll see that in the future

The most operative word here is hope. Which means we may not see more get open sourced over time. Especially, if there is no pressure for companies to do so.

>If we constantly downplay and disparage the real efforts that companies make to release IP to the world because they don't go as far as we'd like, we're setting ourselves up for a world where companies don't release anything at all.

I don't mean anything as disparagement or downplay, but companies aren't releasing this stuff because it makes everyone feel good. Its a tactic. They're only open sourcing something because they expect to get something out of it. That's fine, I'm all for that. That's a valid reason, and often it can be a 2 way street.

What it isn't though, is an attempt at any company saying "we are open sourcing this today because we want to encourage more transparency and auditability as AI takes on more critical roles in society, to ensure in the domains its being applied, to the best of our ability and the ability of our community, that it does not inherit negative human biases"
I think there are two kinds of people, those for whom taking medications for the rest of their lives is unthinkable, and those for whom it's completely normal. I'm definitely in the latter camp but the cultures colliding can be a real surprise.
>This is the part that bothered me (licensed attorney) from the start. If it scores this high, where are the receipts?

I'm not a licensed attorney, but that's also bothered me about all of these sorts of stories. There is never any proof provided for any of the claims, and the behavior often contradicts what can be observed using the system yourself. I also assume they cook the books a little by having included a bunch of bar exam specific training when creating the model in first place specifically to better on bar exams than in general.

Show HN: I was bored, so I made an AI caption generator for Vinted
Hi Nerd,

What happens when a broke computer science student tries to sell old t-shirts and jackets on Vinted but loses patience writing tedious captions to attract potential buyers who never seem to arrive? The most plausible solution to me was to create a platform that automatically generates captions using AI. And that's how Describify was born.

Describify uses OpenAI's API to generate descriptions that sound human-written, helping online sellers save time and sell more effectively. The idea was simple, but bringing it to life required a lot of work and dedication.

It wasn't easy. Despite loving to code, I wasn't an expert (and I'm still not). I knew React, had created a blog, and a few other simple projects, but Describify took me to a whole new level. I learned how to set up a Node server, manage user access and limitations, choose the right libraries to create an effective user interface, set up secure connections to send emails to users without relying on expensive third-party services, and much more.

This project allowed me to develop new skills over a period of about six months. Six intense months, full of challenges, but also great satisfaction. And today, I am thrilled to announce that Describify is finally online.

The landing page is live, and you can sign up to get five free tokens on your first access (1 token = 1 generation).

Visit https://www.describify.it and take a look. If my story has intrigued you, if you like the project, or if you have any feedback to share, please don't hesitate to contact me. I'm always ready to learn and grow my project.

Thanks for your attention, and I hope Describify can be useful to you too.
