The Graduate School Dilemma
My understanding is that, as you say, Physics PhDs tend to have pretty decent paths into computing or math stuff. It's hard to be a physicist these days without being able to write some code in at least a scripting language, so fields like data science can fit them well.

The challenge is probably in finding pure physics research positions in a specific specialization.
Why not adopt? There are plenty of kids already who need a parent or two.
Bullshit. US residential mortgages can't be called, even if there's negative equity.

Hi! I put together this little app using Substrate – https://substrate.run – and Val.Town to help me brush up on my Spanish vocab. It's pretty neat to be able to generate text, images, and audio, and then ask an LLM to generate a website.
Fun alternative to building out the UI yourself – ask an LLM to do it! I do this all the time now, asking the LLM to stream its output as Markdown or HTML.
How close did you have to go to the truck in order to make use of the slipstream?
Yes. I'm not sure what a donation is for, if not for the recipient to spend as they see fit. And this isn't a matter of spending donor money on unrelated but deserving causes - as you say, supporting clients supports the ecosystem.

I understand the argument that deciding who gets the money and how much is nontrivial and perhaps better left up to individual donors, but I disagree that it would be dishonest or misappropriating funds if you were to do so.
That sounds like what an NPC would say.

This is not a "prevent asbestos in housing" type of regulation.

The OP wants to reduce the amount of institutional ownership of housing. This will reduce supply of rental units, increasing the cost of rental units.

Where? Maybe people downplay storing dates but not making a library.
I understand the sentiment - and yes tradition is important in human culture. That said its like we've trained so acutely for the test but the test doesn't really answer any good questions.

Historically running had a very important part of humanity. You needed to run from animals for hunting, if you were a warrior you needed to fight and run, etc. It feels like this is one of those races that was historically important as a human metric but no longer has the heft of value except for nostalgia.
Organizing notes like this is a challenge for me too. Instead, I keep most notes in one file, and split off that file when it becomes too big. I use ripgrep to search my notes and back them up in a Git repo

I think the important ideas for me are to keep notes, keep notes in plain text for portability and easy searching, and to keep notes backed up.

If I ever find the "perfect" organization for my notes, I feel confident I can write some crazy shell script to move stuff into the right places and ask an LLM to add the right tags.

Until then, I've got a searchable history of my work for my coworkers and future me to enjoy.

I'll try.

1. What are you trying to do? If it's simple research off the web, simply copy some files and paste, or use MarkDownload and get fully formed markdown from a page to put in your vault.

2. Can you code? You don't need to code, but things make a lot more sense in Obsidian if you know markdown, CSS, and maybe a bit of javascript/html. I didn't use anything but markdown productively for a long time. Even now there's very few plugins I would recommend. ADD: When I started, I went through all the plugins and added everything under the sun. This is because I was stupid and thinking I was at some kind of nerd buffet. Once I realized I was looking at complexity upside down, Obsidian kicked ass.

Your second issue is a feature for me, so I can't help there.

As to your specific question, if you're stuck on Zotero, then add stuff there and make a one-way pipeline to Obsidian. Obsidian becomes your source of truth. If not, ditch it. I don't think it does anything Obsidian doesn't, but you should check with some users.

Remember KISS, Keep It Simple, Silly. One tool. If you're stuck using two tools, one-way data pipelines. Syncing two knowledge tools together sounds like a nightmare and I'd stop doing that right away.

One more thing: I decided on folders for long-term categorization, things I think will mostly never change. Then tags, nested tags specifically, for trying to freeform WTF I'm doing. Tag Wrangler is awesome for this. There are only about five extensions I'd always use. Tag Wrangler is one of them.
We are doing some fundamental changes to how diagrams are rendered, which would enable us to support more renderers. This will enable us to do server side rendering without a browser.

The main reason why we need a browser currently is size calculations of the SVG boxes, which libraries like jsdom does not support.

The Employment Effects of a Guaranteed Income: Evidence from 2 U.S. States
flight tickets usually are not a scarce commodity that attracts scalpers

If airline ticket resale was as easy as concert tickets, you'd probably see a predatory scalping market develop. Airplane tickets are scarce in that there is limited ability to adjust supply, especially in the short term. If flights to a destination are booked, you can't just throw another plane on the route because the gates are limited and inflexible.
I can think of some possible reasons. Can't kill any ground crew if the prop ends are 8 feet up. Fuel engines get more efficient the bigger you make them, so big propeller aircraft being more efficient isn't necessarily because of the prop size, but rather a side effect of engine size. Electric motors don't gain much efficiency with increased size AFAIK, so they can get away with small motors. Lots of props close to the wing would guide the air well - you don't get that giant vortex of wasted energy. Redundancy - they could lose multiple propellers. That's especially needed since some of these electric aircraft are VTOL and can't glide or autorotate in an emergency. I'm thinking of https://wisk.aero . Market constraints - this is a new application so they're relying on other industries for the motors they can pick from.

From How Soon Is Now?[1].

While I can understand the emotional need and longing, it feels extremely weird to me that someone can have such a relationship with a thing.

Though, with AIs improving every day, how would we view this if one were to pass the Turing test[2]? What then is the difference between a permanent long-distance relationship and an AI companion?

Thank you. Well, if the USA does the opposite then all apps and research will be moved overseas.

This is a complicated topic and I don't know the right answer. I hope people with far greater skills in IP can figure out a meaningful solution that everyone doesn't hate. It might be that there is no good solution.
Everything you're describing goes back to problems with thread APIs. I agree that threads as implemented are very coarse grained and limited. What I dislike is the idea of inflicting an explosion of cognitive load onto the programmer to manually manage things instead of thinking about how to implement a better kind of thread.

The latter is what Go did. I'm not a giant Go fan but not having async is far and away the best thing about the language and makes up for almost all its other faults.

Anything the language makes the programmer think about detracts from the programmer's ability to think about the actual problem they are solving.

BTW Rust is still superior to C++ and I use it, so I am not dissing Rust too badly. The async cancer is found across the entire ecosystem, not just Rust, so my comment was more against async programming in general as opposed to getting threading right. If we could get threading right we would massively simplify all programming everywhere.

Ultimately it boils down to the fact that it's 2024 and we still run everything on 1970s operating systems.
Is that Wayland or Xorg?

With PSR in the mix, is the system really hanging or is it just failing to update the screen somehow? I.e. can you tell the difference with logs or a remote connection or configure and use an unprompted shutdown via the power button?

"hydrogen fuel cells ... Not exactly sure why they don't get much more love."

Hydrogen is just pretty bad as an energy carrier, since it's so difficult to handle.

The main attraction currently is that hydrogen fuel cells are fairly efficient and hydrogen oxidation releases a lot of energy (most of it from the O2 bond, as in most 'combustion')

But if fuel cells that can directly handle more complex and more convenient hydrocarbons efficiently can be developed there will be little reason for hydrogen - maybe only cryogenic uses in rockets etc.
I wonder if the elite might be trapped by the culture. (Hear me out, here...)

I don't think the elite actually control the culture. To a large degree, the culture controls the (external behavior of) the elite. They have to appear to be everything they're supposed to be. So they give verbal agreement to single motherhood, unmarried cohabitation, and so on, so that the culture doesn't condemn them. But for themselves, they know that those things cause damage to the next generation, and they avoid it like the plague.

Note that this may be true even if "culture" means elite culture. I could see the culture among elites being that 1) you would be condemned if you were not sufficiently verbally supportive of single motherhood and related shibboleths, and 2) you would be condemned if any such thing happened in your family. (I don't actually know; I don't hang out in those circles, and I don't have a good handle on actual elite culture.)
Or we still have physicians with the mindset of "What does your husband say?"

And then more and more schools, not less and less, are teaching abstinence-only sex ed.

And politicians pushing it. Including Lauren Boebert, 4th generation teen mom, who has a son who got his girlfriend pregnant at a ... questionable ... age. And Sarah Palin, who works with her daughter while her daughter has had two kids out of marriage.

(To be clear, my perspective on sex ed and morality is not saying there's issue with sex and children out of marriage, quite the opposite. But you have people who are being held up as rolemodels doing ... not what they preach.)
You're completely missing the point.

~/.programname is an unorganized mess, where someone stuff their dirty laundry, their trash, their food and their passport into the same closet. It doesn't matter if the closet is open or not, nobody but the mentally ill hoarder who created the mess can navigate it.

~/.(local|share|cache) means people put their food in the fridge, their trash into the bin and their sensitive documents in a fire proof safe. Which means other people can take care of basic tasks like taking out the trash and creating backups of their sensitive documents.
yes, even W680 can override power and thermal limits, voltage, current excursion protection, etc. Everything except clock multiplier.

https://youtu.be/5KHCLBqRrnY?t=2694

that is part of the problem, W680 is not the same thing as C266 (and even C266 might be able to do it, wendell is sounding concerned about E-2400 platform too). W680 is still a consumer-socket product, it's just one that supports ECC. Like yes, people run those in a datacenter and that's fine and normal and supported - some customers want high single-threaded performance, and the big server chips just aren't as good at that. One of the affected customers is Citadel, which is unsurprising if you think about it (HFT).

this also means you get fun stuff like 13700T sometimes being run without power limits... but even within power limits they've seen 13700T degrading too, which is kind of a point against the whole "their hubris and power consumption angered the gods" thesis. If 35W is too much power, we're all cooked.

But it's hard to say, since nothing is being run within-spec and you have to bend over backwards to get "stock" behavior etc. Which buildzoid has elaborated and clarified on (after a couple initial videos that were working from incomplete info). And like yeah, that's a whole shitshow too... not only were partners severely breaking the spec in a whole bunch of places, both in the sense of departing further from the spec in ways that could cause problems, and also performing a factory undervolt out-of-the-box that isn't necessarily stable, and this has gotten more and more out-of-spec over time too (both the undervolting and loadline). Also, the "intel baseline profile" and "intel failsafe profile" apparently did not come from Intel, those were made up by gigabyte and msi, while the Intel Default profile did. Great stuff, you love to see it. /s

But there just has to be a reason that only 10-25% of samples are affected and if it's just generically power or current you should see it everywhere. Hence why board config is/was a concern, and why GN is now kinda pointing the finger at this "contamination/oxidation of the vias" fab problem theory.
Not to mention the diet of chicken nuggets, particularly in Beijing where that was basically all he ate for weeks.
>If that's the case, everyone in postwar Germany or modern Zimbabwe should be the wealthiest people to ever exist and therefore have the highest quality of life.

If you're trying to imply that wealth = number in your bank account and 10x inflation makes you 10x wealthier, that's a massive misunderstanding of what "how much assets you have accumulated". Even though it wasn't explicitly stated, it's generally understood that the assets are valued in some meaningful way (eg. CPI or GDP deflator), rather than just looking at the raw numbers in your bank account.
Why do you think the kernel crashes when crowdstrike attempts to reference some unavailable address (or whatever it does) instead of just denying that operation and continuing on? That would be the solution using this philosophy "just kill long running program". And no need for eBPF or anything complicated. But it doesn't work that way in practice.

This is just such a naive view. "We can prevent programs from crashing by just taking care to stop them when they do bad things". Well, sure, that's why you have a kernel and userland. But it turns out, some things need to run in the kernel. Or "just deny permission". Then it turns out some programs need to run as admin. And so on.

There is a generality in the halting problem, and saying "we'll just kill long runing programs" just misses the point entirely.

Likely what will happen is that you will kill useful long-running programs, then an exception mechanism will be invented so some programs will not be killed, because they need to run longer, then one of those programs will go into an infinite loop despite all your mechanisms preventing it. Just like the crowdstrike driver managed to bring down the OS despite all the work that is supposed to prevent the entire computer crashing if a single program tries something stupid.

none of them, actually. it's on young men to set boundaries for themselves. other men either teach them that, or not. since they are human, there are limits to what mothers can do for their sons, being a father is one of them. kids are poorer without them.
>That's a bundle of different issues that most people either won't support all of, or won't oppose all of.

And yet that's the state of the US political feud, a.k.a. "culture war".
The author talks a ton about expectations and “expected from” but is very careful to never phrase it all together in active voice because the central claim “harvard elites in conference rooms expect young poor men to abandon their partners and children, therefore harvard elites cause young poor men to abandon their partners and children” is on the face of it absurd.
A lot of men, particularly less educated men, have bizarre beliefs that vasectomies harm sexual performance or make them less of men. I saw the other day a person asking on the biohacking Reddit if a vasectomy would harm testosterone levels. Asking poorly educated, poorly read, and low-skilled men to make highly informed decisions is going to be a losing battle.

I'm willing to bet the rates of vasectomy are highly correlated with education levels.
Bleugh. Who is this article for? (good bait from the poster) Anyone who's done any kind of meaningful SPA dev knows this pattern does not scale & for newbies, this is poison.

Instead of talking high-level framework agnostic code design and the multitudes of ways to fetch data (route based, state stores, authentication hooks, subscriptions, model composition , to name a few ); author goes deep into outdated React anti-patterns.

May I ask where in the USA?
'Stripe Billing' is a separate product from the core Stripe service with additional fees.
Why are two European companies suing eachother in a US court? Ryanair doesn’t even serve the US, right?
Windows has Defender built in and most of those companies are presumably already using an SCCM like Software Center. If they upgrade from ancient versions of Software Center (because let's be honest if they are using CrowdStrike they are probably behind the times) to more recent versions of Intune it includes most of the exact same "fleet configuration" and "fleet anti-virus" tools (including ransomware prevention/quarantine) that CrowdStrike ever provided, only this time with stuff the Fortune 100 companies are likely already paying Microsoft for. They are trading one vendor for another, but the new vendor actually owns the Operating System and has a lot more reasons not to break it with bad update deployments.

It's not like Microsoft has spent the last few decades entirely ignoring these large scale infrastructure needs, they've just been competing with these bloatware vendors like CrowdStrike with significant marketing arms and incredible sunk cost inertia. (Given most of these companies already pay for things like Intune, it's a weirdly doubled sunk cost inertia, but still a sunk cost inertia.)
Sick and tired of EU meddling in tech. If third parties can muck around in the kernel, then there's nothing Microsoft can really do at that point. SMH
Yes. Add nothing, do nothing until forced to.

Obsidian still does this.

It's not an IDE, heck no. It's just notepad with some bells and whistles coders could use (but only when necessary.)

Yeah, folks show off online. Ignore those wankers.

ADD: Good grief, reading these comments. You folks aren't building a spaceship, you should be just taking notes and organizing them into something greater than the individual note. Every second you spend in CSS or trying to get a batch process to do your taxes or whatnot? You're doing it wrong. You're going the wrong way.
This isn't strictly enforced, though.

You can poll young women for what they require of young men to date them. Plenty of content of that on YouTube.

I find C# and TS to largely be "congruent" and rather easy to switch between [0].

I think the biggest "growing pain" is that C# runtime is multi-threaded so devs that are used to single-threaded Node.js environment need to understand object lifetimes. (Of course there are other differences as well, but the biggest IMO is understanding threading and object lifecycles in the underlying runtime.)

Syntactically identical promises/futures; syntactically identical lambdas; largely congruent tuples, classes, interfaces, generics, anonymous objects. C# 13 collection initializers are going to largely feel like JS array initializers.

Minor syntax differences can be picked up quickly. Frameworks like Nest.js are super similar to .NET Web API.

Hydrogen is a terrible battery. Best case conversion to H2 is ~80%, while best case fuel cell efficiency is ~50%. That's 40% round trip while most batteries can do 90%.

That ignores losses due to leakage, but those are only a couple of percent. Also, ignore the hazards, but the cost of building safe low leakage infrastructure might exceed the cost of batteries and solar/wind to produce power. You're probably better off making H2 dynamically where you need it and just sending electrons or storing them locally in safe batteries.
Curious if the doctors are actually just proxies for insurance providers in this case?
Lots of such counties exist. Most of Alaska qualifies, as do parts of TN, NM, AZ, etc. should be a list of some you can pull up and start there if you're looking to do same.
There's no point building the infrastructure if there are no planes to use it, though. When cars were first invented, you bought the fuel from the local chemist, and petrol stations only came years afterwards.
Part of it is that there really wasn't a primary in the first place. Democratic voters gave their consent to Biden on the understanding that he was capable of beating Trump again. As it became more clear that that wasn't the case, it became less reasonable to rely on that consent. Polls have all along shown voters preferring someone else by a substantial margin, although I don't know that they ever agreed on the someone.

There is a degree to which this move is "less democratic", but we have to be careful. It is less democratic in the governance of the Democratic Party, but it's worth noting that the Democratic Party is not a polity. Running someone who can win instead of who the party chose might be a more democratic outcome with respect to the organization that matters more.

There's absolutely room for this to be taken too far. With mostly just the two parties, elites could (and arguably did, pre-'68) use these kinds of concerns as cover for excluding certain perspectives from power. That's something to watch for, but given the context it is obviously not what is happening here when the person being excluded is the current President, with the support of the party elites up to this point.
