I currently have a Mac, but thinking of getting Linux in addition to that for some little side projects I want to do.

My MacBook serves its main purpose really well though, I use it for research and writing essentially, and I do a little bit of my business stuff on it, but nothing fancy since it’s mainly all just done through accounting software and my accountant sorts the other shit…

But I’m wanting to explore a little more of the software/programming side of stuff and experimenting with that sort of thing so I’m going to use Linux for that, and basically I just want to see what I can achieve with basically just a raspberry pi and Linux, and build on it from there. I’m very much winging it so I know I sound like an idiot.

Not biochemically, it doesn't. It slows your reaction time. It doesn't make you do or think anything you otherwise wouldn't, you just get there a little slower.

For all I know, you still become all those great things when you drink, but you might as well said it about taking a smoke. It might be just as true then. It's not the substance doing it.

The one time I used it over a few weeks was a generic brand. The on-label effect worked, but I had one disturbing side effect: terrible nightmares.

Unscientific conclusion, but the nights I took it when with my new gf at the time, nightmares followed. Binned the remaining pills, nightmares vanished. Possibly the generic additives factor, or maybe the drug itself. Who knows, never tried it again after that.

There IS nothing we can do about it. It seems likely that we will see some form of outbreak in humans. The severity is an unknown. What we can do is have a plan to deal with it as best as we can. Keep some extra supplies and medications to last for a few weeks if it gets risky to go outside. I'm not going down a list as everyone's situation is different, but most reasonable steps you can take are pretty cheap and easy to do in the here and now, before panic buying and price gouging start.

The difference is not vibes! Reducing your position is the opposite of increasing your position, and those things are very objective.

If someone has an equal number of short and long shares in a single company, they are not gambling. Surely we can agree on that, right? We don't have to use the word gambling, we can say they're not investing either. Their money does not change at all based on the stock market or any other external factors.

Now what if they have more short or more long shares. We can say that gambling or investing is happening, right?

What do we call the process of moving from a net-nonzero position toward net zero? Isn't it the opposite of gambling? Or the opposite of investing?

I used to think the same, then I realize that topic is just a concept we draw from the content. It just reminded me the time we do feature engineering for many things, now we just feed everything into the algorithm and let it figure out how to handle things. Maybe the problem for us is not how to organize data in a way we think it is best, but for a format which is useful for the algorithm. A fixed window size fits perfectly with the embedding model would just work.

“Objectively,” left-handed versus right-handed changes nothing about a person’s capabilities in the world, whereas being deaf does.

Cultural norms is an interesting comparison. Despite there being no actual difference in capacity, cultural views forced many left-handed people to be right-handed, making those people miserable in the process for no good reason.
Makes sense, my biggest takeaway from observing folks in many different roles interact with LLMs is this: they simply don't know how to prompt effectively.

There is no problem with the chat UX, if you know the right techniques to get optimal output, but writing effective prompts is a technical skill similar to programming - most folks that interact with computers are not highly technical.

If we design software powered by LLMs understanding that effective prompting is a skill most users don't have, then we should build UX that abstracts prompting away. Of course there are going to be use cases where a user needs to provide input to the LLM, but that UX also can be assistive and require minimal cognitive overhead (e.g less raw text prompt input, more clicks on buttons/forms etc to a backend prompt builder).

Generally speaking, AI Engine processors are in-order, exposed-pipeline VLIW processors. Each VLIW instruction bundle specifies the behavior of one or more functional units,
which begin executing a new instruction at the same time. The processor pipeline does not include stall logic to enforce data dependencies, and instructions will continue
executing in order regardless of other instructions in the pipeline. As a result, the compiler is able to schedule machine instructions which access the same register in ways that potentially overlap

So a software scheduler? I had no idea it works like this. Very interesting.

How is it compared to Rails? It seems like the world is just divided between server first or JS framework first depending on how much interactivity. In my case i just need some API calling, retrieving data, rendering it on the dashboard (just text, no graphs) and pushing some of the content to another API.

Doing everything at once is a big mistake.

Gardens need infrastructure and they need time to evolve into a system that works and is productive.

Start by building compost bins. Use your mower (if you have a rotary one that bags) to mince up clippings from woodie plants (not actual bits of wood as that will kill the mower) and obviously to collect grass clippings. Start composting this down. Obtain a bag of good live compost or muck full of worms (you can see them) and use that to dope and infect your heap, loads of worm eggs will be in the muck and as the compost gets going the worm population will get going too.

Start your veg patch small and simple. If you have the space eight 3m * 1.2 m beds will be a big challenge to look after at first, but will provide more opportunities to grow things than you will be able to take advantage of (effectively). Remember, growing veg isn't just about preparing the soil, throwing seed on and waiting.

You will need to fence and net against pests. Pigeons will eat all brassicas in short order. Rabbits will eat most stuff, mice and rats as well. Good plants to get going with in the UK are: courgettes and other squashes (pumpkins need lots of room but can be a fun hobby plant), beans (broad, french and runners), peas, potatoes (blight is... a blight), celeriac and cellery, lettuce, broccoli (Calabrese), kale, beetroot, chard, carrots, corn, cabbage. You must net cabbage, broccoli and kale. You will also need to feed - organic seaweed feeds are good for this. Most importantly remember plants grow because of light and water and constant protection and pest management.

Once you are going and learn about the plants then get a green house and expand. The green house and cold frames are essential to get seedlings going - this is when you can move from paying more to grow than it costs to buy to saving money. You can also grow veg that only thrives under glass in a cooler climate. But, be warned.. commercial farmers are very clever and very efficient. You will always struggle to compete with them on a value basis. But it is very satisfying and the food often tastes better than shop bought.
Even if this is obviously true, that does nothing to support the original statement. That's a whole different claim that you had to fall back to.

Which is a motte-and-bailey type of argument.

Bonus points if you can just build the tooling to work with some emerging standards at different levels of the stack. A few relevant ones that come to mind would be:

- CBOR for the on the wire format

- CDDL for schema design of CBOR objects.

- WebTransport as the API you use on top of HTTP/3 for actually moving bits of data back and forth between client and server.

The nice thing about that approach to is that it’s in no way tied of any kind of language or other architectural patterns that larger frameworks tend to force you into. The beauty of the standards process I guess.

If someone could put together a great API design experience that wrapped all of that up with cross language code generation like Protobuf / gRPC I would switch tomorrow.

Some of the answers are exactly what I've been trying to avoid. My only goal is being able to build my own stuff, I don't really care about kubernetes or scaling. I don't anticipate to have 1m active users with concurrency.

At the same time, I got a bit scared by React quite frankly and hence was only looking at Sveltekit. However you rightly pointed out, its still being shaped despite being similar to Next.js and seems like ideal for React devs who want to jump into more simplicity and "vibes" with DSL.

My only other consideration was Rails but for that one - the learning curve is even steeper.
>If things like "Brick" will be successful, ad companies like Meta will work around them by distractifying essential apps.

That seems like a very hypothetical situation and no reason to dismiss the product. I have tried (and apply) most if not all of your "tricks" and I still could see this as helpful. Whenever I have to apply willpower to something, it's like I have a little less of it for other things (similar to the concept of decision fatigue). If this thing could remove the choice in just a few situations, that would be positive.
They most certainly did not take credit, where did you see that?! I think this accusation is unfair.

In fact they say For some, this is a proof that “with enough eyeballs, all problems are shallow”. That doesn't sound like "we solved it!".

Instead, they're using this to highlight how vital archives are. It's a valid point, and there's nothing I see wrong with it.
It is a derogatory industry term, also called janitor insurance. I can't find a source that says they called it that internally, which I think is relevant to the image being painted.

On top of what sibling comments mention, another common problem is that the STL has many different implementations with different/inconsistent performance profiles. If you want containers with guaranteed performance characteristics, you're better off using your own or a third party.
“I believe depression is legitimate. But I also believe that if you don’t exercise, eat nutritious food, get sunlight, get enough sleep, consume positive material, surround yourself with support, then you aren’t giving yourself a fighting chance.”

It's not the quote I was looking for as the one I remember is from a video. He has done a few interviews about his ADHD with depression and the quote is something to ponder or look at as a checklist. I have a better outlook and health after exercising or doing manual labor to generate a healthy sweat.

Yes, but this is newly released footage. That it was taken from a nearby buoy is evidence that the booster landed exactly where SpaceX aimed it.
Or just use a cellular watch like Apple Watch Ultra instead of carrying a phone with you all the time.
The algorithms are generally fine, it's the containers which are very heavy on heap allocations, particularly the maps and trees.
When I was learning C++ in 2008, I remember people telling me STL was one of the greatest accomplishments in computer science.
This is mostly wrong.

Gambling doesn’t require that you “risk it all”. In this way, your entire post looks like it’s arguing against a straw man.

There is a way to gamble in which it is very similar to insurance — extremely defensive and conservative. But that means the gambler isn’t “enjoying” gambling, they are instead just being an accountant, but not earning a salary for it.

They are both games of chance, but you fail to point out why gambling is most frequently outlawed: it is a compulsive behavior that becomes addictive in some people. When 11% of a society can’t maintain a gainful living (maybe they can’t hold a job or they become a habitual liar or a thief to feed their habit), governments tend to step in to dissuade the problematic behavior.

But most people who gamble frequently tend to do it with their lizard brain and most people who purchase insurance do it with their cognitive brain (even if the underlying reasons aren’t based on facts).

Then again, the premise of the question is arguably wrong. The state lottery is one of the biggest forms of gambling and that isn’t illegal (even though the origins were to supplant similar mob-run games).
Does this have applications for kids/students? I could see a school using these sort of like how they use those pouches (but it doesn't require the pouches). I guess parents don't need it because the whole point of this app/device — the fact that the user has an always-available password — isn't true for children, whose parents have the password.

Still, I'm curious what others think of the possibilities for kids.

This seems very unfair. There's absolutely no point, anywhere in that IA blog post, that says "We found it". Anywhere! They're just providing information on the history of the file, from their archives, and detail into why it's an amusing story.

They even say

Well thank you, but the question is why one needs "fixing" and the other doesn't. Parent comment made an argument that being gay is like being left-handed so it doesn't need "fixing". That's fine with me, but I don't see how the same logic doesn't apply to deafness.

Many deaf people enjoy their life as it is and don't welcome your attempts to "fix" them.

I used to be on my phone for six hours a day and after realizing that it was virtually all wasted time I started trying to cut back. It was hard to break the addition but after years of experimentation I succeeded.

My strategy these days is very simple.

* All notifications are on silent all the time except for a tiny class of things - e.g. actual phone calls, and delivery apps.

* When I'm at home the phone sits on my toilet. When I'm at the office it sits in my bag. At night it's turned off and charging.

That's really it. <2 hours of phone time per day with no downsides. I bring it out of the toilet temporarily if I'm eating a meal alone, sometimes.

Physical separation from the device has been the key for me, whenever possible, it's simply not on my person, so my attention rarely goes to it.

I like the symbolism of this shitty device only having access to my attention when I'm taking a dump.

I really hope Apple comes out with an AW that has more battery life in lieu of all the outdoorsy/sports features of the AWU. I see lots of wealthy desk warriors wearing them, partly for the better battery life and partly for the status (of having the most expensive AW). I know some people who use some of the sports-related features, but most people I've talked to would prefer more battery than all the ruggedness. I know I certainly would. Get me to a week of battery life and I'm sold.
You can use some gambling products as insurance, but insurance products are designed so you cannot use them as gambling. At least in terms of products sold broadly to the general public, which is the main situation where people worry about gambling being immoral.

As other commenters mention, the main way this works is by making it impossible to "win" at insurance. You aren't hoping for the rare payout event to happen, like you would be when gambling. Having your house burn down, or getting into a car accident, or needing treatment for cancer, or dying are all really bad even if insurance reimburses the monetary costs involved.

This is probably why the concept of "insurable interest" exists; without it, it would be possible to use insurance products as gambling.

Insurance for the consumer is lowering your expected value to reduce variance. Gambling for the consumer is lowering your expected value to increase variance. The profit and operating costs for both casinos and insurance companies is the lost EV of their patrons.
