If science can one day make a convincing case for a multiverse, would there be any difference between that reality and innumerable simulated universes?

Would there be a difference between existing in a universe created by a divine being and one created by a species advanced enough to create a simulated universe populated with sentient beings?
> Happy to see some positive news stories regarding Ozempic/Semaglutide.

Have you really not seen any? The ones I've read over the last year were universally positive.

What? Source on either of that? It's not a diet and certainly not a TikTok challenge.
A small town near me had a hotel go in. They build the core structure in a tradition way, but the rooms were factory built and slid into place. It looks like gaps were hidden behind exterior paneling and interior walls. Still appeared to require some traditional construction, but much less in the finish details.

It made sense for this structure. It was about 30 rooms across 3 stories. Enough for repetition to make sense.

What exactly do you mean by non-trivial/modern standards? While certainly the largest and most complicated theorems are currently out of reach of proof verifiers, there isn't a shortage of usage of them to prove important/modern theorems (of course certain fields are much more developed/more amenable to verification than others).

* https://xenaproject.wordpress.com/2024/01/20/lean-in-2024/ discusses a few recent usages in recent papers and the author's grant to formalize Fermat's last theorem.

* The liquid tensor experiment (https://www.quantamagazine.org/lean-computer-program-confirm...)

* Feit-Thompson was formalized in 2012.

I do largely agree that formal correctness within mathematics is not as important as it may seem, though this doesn't mean formal verification of a proof is completely orthogonal to understanding it - you can't formally verify something without really understanding the proof in the first place.
What you describe is just a ledger, you don't need a convoluted system for maintaining consensus when the system you are building is naturally centralized.
Speaking of radiation resistance, species such as Deinococcus radiodurans (bacteria) and Thermococcus gammatolerans (archaea) can survive doses in the 15-30 kGy range. They have evolved incredibly efficient DNA damage repair to handle the high rate of double strand breaks (DSBs) associated with such conditions.

What is interesting is that these high radiation doses don't really occur naturally to the point where such mechanisms would have evolved and then been maintained. Instead, it is believed that they evolved to confer resistance to desiccation, which also induces DSBs at a similar rate.
Most consulting contracts (software, design, business, etc) have early cancellation clauses for customers that want to cancel for no good reason. Usually they specify how much they’d be refunded from the retainer at different stages of the project. This is actually harder on paper than on software. I’m sure Adobe has elite product owners and engineers that can figure this out.

The long-standing advice has been to shop around the edges of the store. That's where they keep the fresh produce, meat, and dairy.

(It's also frozen foods in a lot of stores. Frozen vegetables are as good as fresh. Ice cream, not so much.)

For the most part the aisles are more processed (read: calorie dense and nutrients removed). They should be eaten more sparingly.

> Al-Jabr (The Compendious Book on Calculation by Completion and Balancing, Arabic: الكتاب المختصر في حساب الجبر والمقابلة al-Kitāb al-mukhtaṣar fī ḥisāb al-jabr wal-muqābala) is a mathematical book written approximately 820 CE. [...] The term "algebra" is derived from the name of one of the basic operations with equations (al-jabr, meaning "restoration", referring to adding a number to both sides of the equation to consolidate or cancel terms) described in this book.

This is not correct.

المقابلة indicates two entities facing one another. Root is Q.B.L. from which we also get Qibla (that is direction of prayer). So it indicates the balancing of terms on each side of the equation.

الجبر is actually one of the names of God and it means forceful/irresistible compeller. In context of حساب (computation, reckoning) حساب الجبر then means a computation that is compelled (by mathematical logic).

The junk food industry is worried.[1] Parts of the industry are fighting back by promoting "fat acceptance".[2]

"Amy Cohn, General Mills’ senior manager for nutrition and external affairs, promoted the cereal company’s anti-diet messaging to a room of registered dietitians at a national food conference this past fall. Cohn denounced the media for “pointing the finger at processed foods” and making consumers feel ashamed of their choices. “You can help derail the cycle of shame,” Cohn told the dietitians.
During the session, Kathryn Lawson, a registered dietitian and director of regulatory and scientific affairs at the food giant Nestlé, tweeted: “People need to feel heard and seen to help break the cycle of shame when it comes to losing weight and eating.” Turns out there are a large number of paid fat influencers.

Neal gave up on Linux because he wasn't a developer. He couldn't take advantage of the freedoms it provided and it worked the same for him as any proprietary OS would. I.E. he had the excuse that programming is hard, a specialty that requires much practice. This is an ongoing issue with free software and is why it is niche... it primarily appeals to software developers as they are the only ones that can take advantage of the freedoms it provides and are the ones that truly sacrifice that freedom when they use a non-free OS.
>Still hoping the older books are relevant.

The older books which are still in publication seem to all be 8.5 or 8.6 and are relevant, I don't recall coming across anything which did not work yet but I am not exactly working through them cover to cover, used them to get the basics and am now using them more as a reference than a guide.

How many of you feel overwhelmed by the constant influx of information? It's a struggle to stay updated and make sense of it all. Today, I'll introduce you to a tool that can help!
Meet Fabric – An open-source tool that makes AI accessible. Fabric is designed to enhance our ability to manage information effectively. It simplifies the process of using AI for everyday tasks.

Fabric is an Amazing AI Tool That Augments Human Capabilities And is Changing How we Interact with LLMs to Solve Complex Problems.
Humans interact with LLMs based AI using text-based prompts, these prompts are what we use to ask AI to do some tasks. When these prompts are grouped and arranged in a certain order they form a pattern. Patterns can be refined and stitched together to further make the AI model to solve specific problems, in other words, talking to these AI models like they're humans elicits a better response, better results and this is the whole idea of Fabric.
The Chinese don’t support free trade. Why should the US support free trade with China? Why not embargo them until such time as China opens up? This isn’t a hypocritical contradiction.

That's called alchol

Show HN: A modular Next.js CLI plugin system
Hello HN,

I am ad indie hacker, and my first SaaS, Next Inject, is available to try now.

Next Inject is a modular CLI plugin system, where you can automate the configuration of features like stripe, metadata, authentication, all in a single click to save your time.

And for certain plugins that require environment variables, you will be linked to a docs page to save even more time on configuration.

Would love some honest feedback, the metadata plugin is available to use on an empty directory with `npx next-inject add metadata`

I'm not familiar with the UI of financial software, sorry. But can I ask what a power user in your example would be looking for in a screen like this? Like are they watching the screen for movement, color, ordering, something else...?

The most similar things I've worked on were dashboards and spreadsheets, but in those cases, we put a lot of thought into information hierarchy and organization, not just flat density.

For example, we'd hide what we could behind traffic status lights ; if all systems were green, you're good, and you'd only need to dig deeper into ones outside the norm that were yellow or red.

Or where the metric itself is important and shouldn't be hidden, we'd still try to highlight changes over time with sparklines or conditional color scales.

Basically just try to guide the report viewer's attention towards the most important things, whether it's "this is broken!" or "whoa, this number changed a lot over the last 24 hours".

Even in a spreadsheet, there'd be sparklines and cell formatting and subtotals and totals and such to highlight the important stuff.

I can't think of a situation where I'd want to see a bunch of peer numbers like this with no hierarchy. I'm not really comparing them against each other, am I, but probably trying to see change over time...?

But anyway, I honestly don't know (and am curious about) how this works in the financial sector. Are traders really just manually looking at all these numbers all the time (and doing what with them, trying to remember what they were some time ago?)?
but then why hide it under the bottle?

I would definitely use Xilinx over anything else here - Vivado isn't "great" by any pro-SWE's standard of tooling, but is absolutely best-in-class for FPGA development and implementation.

I keep seeing studies about positive outcomes from Ozempic, it truly appears to be a miracle drug.

For example this: https://x.com/ScienceMagazine/status/1816398064011083922

BTW, the the drug is much cheaper in EU. Maybe because it's an EU drug? I don't know but in Greece it's about 100 EUR and in Bulgaria even cheaper at 90EUR.

I don't have any moral concerns about those drugs but there are significant clinical downsides. Some patients experience gastroparesis that can persist even after stopping the drug.

https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/25/health/weight-loss-diabetes-d...

Patients also tend to lose a significant amount of lean muscle mass. That might not be an issue for morbidly obese patients who tend to have a lot of muscle buried under their adipose tissue. But for patients who are just a little overweight the loss of muscle may increase their risk of sarcopenia and cause endocrine problems.

https://peterattiamd.com/the-downside-of-glp-1-receptor-agon...

In general GLP-1 agonists should only be used as a second line therapy if the patient is unable to sustain behavior modification (eat less, move more). Use it if you really need it, but know what you're getting into.
And on the other hand I’m chuffed if it means less people at the drivethrough for when an absolutely mad craving of junk food pounces.

Mind you, where there is even a whiff of money to be made there will be influencers. Morals and tasteful (ahem) choices are orthogonal. All this to say, not surprising in the least.

I would guess Intel is counting on the fact that most people are not knowledgeable enough to pinpoint a defective CPU being the issue when the computer starts crashing.

Heck, even as a SWE building my own computers for almost 20 years, I still have no idea how to properly diagnose a hardware issue when it arises. Beyond checking for explicit errors in journals/logs, and the usual memtest/BIOS update/reinstall the OS from scratch, I resort to replacing each component one by one until the issue disappears. But it's time consuming, and sometimes quite costly. I suspect most people simply replace the entire thing if it's not a prebuilt PC still under warranty.
I stopped using Mac because of the planned obsolescence, which is a huge problem with machines even 4 years old. Can't even update those BSD utils anymore because you can't update the OS, because you don't have the latest hardware, because you don't want to spend 2k more to get back the basics you had already paid for.

Don't get hung up on tax brackets and the loss of personal allowance. They look scary and you end up paying more tax (obviously) but you do continue to earn more money.

£100k nets £68.5k and £150k nets £91k. You're still taking loads more money home.

As you have children and start to do things with them, you will appreciate the things taxes occasionally get spent on more. Starting with the hospital, but more everyday things like school and libraries.
There is the risk that unblinding coincides with the end of experimental value.
This seems to deny the possibility of equivalence of any sequence of actions taken in a bounded spaces of entities (named widgets thus type:id) and actions to another 'representation' (e.g. text):

{ select[i]@dropdown:states > click@button:submit }

The fact that we don't have this (yet) does not mean it is not possible. In fact, given that the current darling of tech LLMs can 'compute visually' based on tokens (text) should make it clear that any 'representation' can ultimately be encoded in text.

So a 'record' feature on GUI 'a' can create action encoding that can be emailed to your peer looking at GUI 'b' and 'pasted'.
> CRUD-development for boring enterprise apps

This is highly misleading.

" boring enterprise apps " have the HIGHEST level of complexity, complication, dependencies, INTER-dependencies, tech debt, totally uncontrollable requirements (the gov demands to implement, nationwide...) than ANY OTHER APP.

It is FAR easier to build an OS than a barely decent ERP. (and this means, Linux became rock solid faster than the custom ERP that most companies started in 1980. You bet, they have not finished it. And is currently broken. And it has many restarts, iterations, etc)

I know, I work on the side building an RDBMS, and that is how I relax. RDBMS are a serious beast, but nothing, nothing, nothing like the complexity of working in " boring enterprise apps ".
