> More recent research, from about 2017, suggests that there's about as much water in Earth's mantle as in all the oceans, so we either need another drop roughly the size of the first, or the second drop should be greatly expanded.

Specifically: given that the volume of a sphere is 4/3πR^3, doubling the volume is equivalent to increasing the radius by ~26%.
I disagree.

Small uC is almost entirely about peripherals and RP2040 and RP2350 barely have any peripherals worth talking about.

It's always a weird strategy to me. Rasp. Pi foundation makes a bare bones no-frills chip (most models missing even Flash, fortunately RP2354 has Flash finally) in a field where processing power is not the focus.

MPUs like SAMA5D27 are sub $10 and Linux capable and are still a bad Processing Power per $$$ point because Rasp Pi 5 exists which is bad because AMD Epic exists. If we go down the processing power chain, we simply end up in Server Land.

The traditional use of uCs is to simplify circuit design by having one chip do 90% of any given project. Running BLDC motors? STM32 has BLDC motor uC that handles the 250V or 600V needed. (EDIT: STSPIN32F0602)

You don't need much more than a Cortex-M0+ to drive BLDC either, so all the extra processing power of RP2350 is wasted.

---------

RP2350 is very MPU-ish to me. It requires additional components and reviewers who love it praise features like PSRAM compatibility and talk about how Flash is cheap anyway.

But that ignores that your typical uC doesn't need any external anything aside from maybe Xtals for communication.

I like the idea that a PR could surface a cost $1000 a month say then finops reviews that PR.

The dev doesn't worry about it unless it is obviously crazy, I.e. above a team budget. If so they sanity check the code.

Got it. I should have checked first.
Why charge it all night? Just throw it on the charger when you get in the shower. Even if it doesn't hit 100% in the space of one quick shower, it'll easily add enough charge to go at least one more full day.

I don't think I'd want the extra battery life unless it was much longer. Like a month or more. Remembering to charge a device just once a week is harder to make a habit out of than just putting the device on the inductive charger every time I take a shower.

According to the wikipedia article, it was a Russian child that fell while riding a bike and his glasses broke and sent pieces of glass into both eyes. The doctor made radial cuts to remove the glass, and discovered that his vision improved afterward.
A few things to consider:

1. If other weight loss methods also have significant impacts on the skin, it seems plausible that a shared mechanism could be the most parsimonious explanation. Therefore, if this effect exists, it might be due to weight loss itself rather than specifically due to Ozempic. The article cites a study supporting the fact that dramatic weight loss has negative impacts on skin health.

2. GLP-1 agonists modify appetite, which could lead people to consume less satiating foods (e.g., protein). This might negatively affect both lean muscle and skin health. There is data supporting collagen supplementation for skin health, as collagen likely raises serum amino acids. This would have the opposite effect on skin health compared to a lower intake of protein.

3. The observations made by plastic surgeons might be influenced by healthy user bias. Ozempic is an expensive medication, and insurance coverage is generally granted to those who are already quite unhealthy. To make a fair comparison, these patients should be compared to individuals with similar health characteristics.

It's also worth adopting an engineering mindset and considering the trade-offs involved. For someone who is extremely metabolically unhealthy, the benefits of weight loss might outweigh potential negative effects on the skin in terms of long-term health.
Because GLP-1 agonists don't change anything other than the cravings and/or reward feedback. They don't add healthy menu items to existing restaurants, they don't put new grocery stores in food deserts, teach people how to shop for healthy food or how to cook it so it's palatable, or in any way mitigate any of the socioeconomic factors that drive people to eating unhealthy food.

In my experience, the average American is looking at restaurants like McDonalds, Dominoes/PizzaHut, a local burger joint, and a "fancy" place like Olive Garden. They wouldn't be able to get something healthy like lentil daal if they wanted to, with the closest equivalent being a McDonald's salad.

Someone else mentioned Thomas Hardy's "The Mayor of Casterbirdge". It's the one of his 5 major novels I haven't read. "Far From the Madding Crowd" and "Return of the Native" are okay, but the two that really are magnificent are:

"Jude the Obscure" - https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/153

"Tess of the D'Urbervilles" - https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/110

You can sense his fury at the society he was depicting. You might not want to read either of these, particularly "Tess", if you're prone to depression.

Frederick Jackson Turner, "The Frontier in American History" (1921) - https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/22994

This collection leads off with Turner's essay "The Significance of the Frontier in American History" (1893). It's considered by some the most influential historical essay about America ever written. Historians went back and forth on his claims for decades, and people pointed out many issues with them. It seems like the critics predominate now. But it's still worth reading, particularly since (right or wrong) his ideas influenced the way we think of ourselves. Turner was a very good writer - he was a noted orator, and his essays have an oratorical quality - and the other essays in the collection are pretty good, too.

Owen Wister, "The Virginian" - https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/1298

Zane Grey, "Riders of the Purple Sage" - https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/1300

And the sequel: "The Rainbow Trail" - https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/5067

"The Virginian" (1902) and "Riders" (1912) established many of the themes and tropes for the "standard" western, and they're still fun to read. But the genre comprises many other kinds of writing - e.g. A. B. Guthrie, Elmer Kelton, and the next writer.

Willa Cather's novels:

The "plains trilogy" (the stories are set in Nebraska and Colorado, but otherwise unrelated):

"O Pioneers!" (1913) - https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/24

"The Song of the Lark" (1915) - https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/44

"My Ántonia" (1918) - https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/19810

And not quite a hundred years ago, but a wonderful novel:

"Death Comes for the Archbishop" (1927) - https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/69730

A few brief mentions: James Joyce's "Ulysses", though I had a tough time getting through it; some of Nathaniel Hawthorne's short stories (e.g. "The Minister's Black Veil"); "Njal's Saga" (I liked the Penguin edition with the translation by Magnusson and Pallson); the great works of classic fantasy (Lord Dunsany, E. R. Eddison, William Morris, Arthur Machen); the essays of Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau.

It’s internal culture that devalues maintenance and product improvement. Launch gets you promo, maintaining gets you laid off.

I saw a lot of humble and dedicated engineers get laid off in the first round and it was a lot of people who put systems stability over their own promo. There used to be a place for those people, which is part of what made Google a decent place. That’s gone now, things will continue to break as long as fixers take the brunt of lay offs.

"C++ Concurrency in Action" by Anthony Williams is solid.

Which is why I've been consistent in saying that the state legislatures can choose arbitrarily, but if they hold an election for electors then the electors must be selected using only votes from that state. They can avoid this by choosing not to hold an election. But if there's no election, then there's no national popular vote. Thus, in either scenario, there is no possibility of a national popular vote interstate compact.
Imagine being a shopper working for Instacart/Doordash going into one of these stores and seeing absolutely bonkers real-time prices. Or otherwise Them gaming the system by sending specific shoppers in to buy specific goods that they get for cheap compared to others. Oh, the world we’re entering into!

Not completely accurate, it depends on your definition of smoothness. The Earth scaled down to the size of a billiard ball would have a texture more like sandpaper, certainly not what most people would consider smooth.
> By that logic, the Electoral College itself is unconstitutional.

How so... the electors from each state are chosen only by voters from that state using whatever selection mechanism (based on votes) that the legislature came up with.

> Or any election. "I didn't vote for X, so X doesn't represent me".

In what way have I said this. It's not about whether you individually voted for X. You can be outvoted by your fellow citizens. However, it must be fellow citizens of your state. When it comes to elections and politics, each state is separate. States cannot allow non-state-citizen voters a say in state policies. That's what it means to be a sovereign independent state which the constitution says the states are.

> Also, let me remind you that the Congress exists, and provides two other ways that the states are represented.

Congress has nothing to do with electors.

> The electors in the electoral college represent citizens that voted for them.

That's right. The citizens of the state who they represent. Thus the electors of Oregon represent Oregon voters only. If the electors from Oregon are chosen by national popular vote, then they are inherently representing non-Oregon-citizens, which is illegal, because now oregon citizens have lost representation.

> Which is why there isn't a problem in any criteria those representatives use to elect the president - including the National Vote.

There are major problems with it. It's the same as if the state their governor will be chosen by national vote. Illegal. The government of a state must represent solely those state's citizens, not the citizens of a foreign state.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who divide the world into two kinds of people, and those who don't.
Seems weird to compare them since I see them as complimentary services.
Easy, they just disable it if you don’t pay. Pretty sure automotive companies are going to make breaks a paid upgrade next.
Cool! Thanks for the follow-up.

I had not heard of that. I've seen the opposite, in tech.
Honestly the VPNs are probably the most ethical usual suspects. They actually do what's advertised and the affiliate links for deals are decent enough. If it's so much noise that people know what it is already, mission accomplished.

But yes, I sympathize. youtubers aren't google, and this will just mean sponsors will push only on the biggest youtubers, wheras the small-medium sized ones need the money the most (where sponsor blocks can be half or more of their income).

It's always been hard and expensive to build anything right. The only surviving old buildings were the good ones.
AT&T argued that breaking up its monopoly would harm consumers by reducing service quality, increasing costs, and stifling innovation due to the loss of economies of scale. However, the breakup in 1984 led to increased competition, which drove innovation, improved services, and lowered prices, proving AT&T's claims largely false. The market's diversity and consumer choice expanded significantly post-breakup, contradicting the monopoly's dire predictions.
I'm reading this at the moment! but I also want to compare how well each language helps you develop concurrency solutions.
Didn’t Apple originally plan not to have an App Store for the iPhone? It was supposed to all be HTML and WebApps, with only core apps from Apple?
Make your sponsored segments worth watching.

I watch a bunch of travel vlog channels and for the most part they advertise the same things (If I ever see another athletic greens sponsor segment or a four sigmatic ad I will scream -- I even actually LIKE four sigmatic products) but I have several channels whitelisted in SponsorBlock because the ads they do are hilarious.

https://www.youtube.com/user/kingingit365

Watch some of their videos and you will see what I mean. I was watching the channel for a year or more before watching a video while sponsorblock API was down (it's volunteer run so it happens sometimes) and realized I was missing out on a really hilarious and important part of their videos, instant whitelist!
Great to hear that you worked saw similar use cases. Doing this before LLMs seem like a big challenge.

If you don't want to use your own product, why should anyone else? Empathy and understanding for your users is what drives a great product.
Seen the same with exposed matlab web apps. Not just the Python guys, kind of shocking how much group think exists on any platform.
That's fair enough. I guess the additional benefit that I am going for here is that the preview behaviors literally are real-time. The preview window re-computes a preview script's output every time the project state changes in Stipple Effect, so you'll see the effects of a brush stroke on your preview milliseconds after releasing the mouse. That way you don't have to save the file, switch contexts, and see the updated result. But I respect that your current workflow may be your preference.

How does looking at the code expose you to potential legal liabilities? I'm a bit confused by that.
Not an astronomer by any means. Just can't see it as a mere coincidence that the stars at the distance of the "age of universe" light years run away with about "c". I.e.

"c" / "age of Universe" = Hubble constant (i.e. "c"/13.7 billions ly / 3.26 ly per pc = 71.3 km/s per mpc.)
Interesting, bookmarking for later :)
it has to be reusable to be composable, ie. it needs some genericness, customization, etc. that usually requires logic, passing args, env vars, etc.

yes, writing programs (ie. an action) is the correct level of abstraction, but in general it just doesn't make much sense to have separate steps. (because for many cases unit testing and building artifacts can/should be done at the same time ... for example python/rust ... inside a container, download deps, build, then run tests, copy result to new layer, push)
I think our disagreement is coming down to the interpretation and nuance of your example.

Mutual information between random variables is zero iff the two random variables are independent.

In your example, you illustrate that the MI is non-zero. Sure, it is clear that it may appear zero during sampling, but that's a different story. I fully agree that there is an opportunity to observe no association. That is unambiguously accurate. But in this scenario you presumably haven't sampled animals with damaged livers. But you can also have bad luck or improper sampling even when the likelihood of sampling is much higher! That doesn't mean that there is no association, that means there's no measured (or observed) association. The difference matters, black swans or not. Especially being experimentalists/analysts, it is critical we remember how our data and experimentation is a proxy, and of what. That they too are models. These things are fucking hard, but it's also okay if we make mistakes and I'd say the experiments are still useful even if they never capture that relationship.

If we strengthen your example to the medicine always being (perfectly) filtered out by a liver (even an impaired one) and all animals must have livers, then it does not make your case either. We will be able to prune that from the DAG. The reason being that it does not describe a random variable... (lack of distribution). I think you're right to say that there is still a causal effect, but what's really needed is to extend the distribution we are sampling from to non-animals or at least complete ones. But the point here would be that our models (experiments) are not always sufficient to capture association, not that the association does not exist.

Maybe you are talking from a more philosophical perspective? (I suspect) If we're going down that route, I think it is worth actually opening the can of worms: that there are many causal diagrams that can adequately and/or equally explain data. I don't think we should shy away from this fact (nor the model, which is a subset of this), especially if we're aiming for accuracy. I rather think what we need to do is embrace the chaos and fuzziness of it all. To remember that it is not about obtaining answers, but finding out how to be less wrong. You can defuzz, but you can't remove all fuzz. We need to remember the unfortunate truth of science, that there is an imbalance in the effort of proofs. That proving something is true is extremely difficult if not impossible, but that it is far easier to prove something is not true (a single counter example!). But this does not mean we can't build evidence that is sufficient to fill the gaps (why I referenced [0]) and operate as if it is truth.

I gripe because the details matter. Not to discourage or say it is worthless, but so we remember what rocks are left unturned. Eventually we will have to come back, so its far better to keep that record. I'm a firm believer in allowing for heavy criticism without rejection/dismissal, as it is required to be consistent with the aforementioned. If perfection cannot exist, it is also wrong to reject for lack of perfection.
The person I'm replying to surely on the left based on:

1. their comment history here

2. the account on X they reposted

3. the motivated reasoning they are displaying and avoidance of acknowledging logical alternatives

Further the left are the only ones promoting the lisp thing on social media, so even if the person I'm replying to isn't my comment stands.

Why did you feel the need to clarify this?
ha thanks, you are absolutely right. i updated the table :)
As much as I want to agree with you, saying the main purpose of a smartphone is to make calls is like saying the main purpose of amazon is to sell books. Only in the beginning was it so
At this point it's probably irreversible. Even if someone will release small phone, apps developers will ignore it and their apps will not be very usable on those phones.

I guess only Apple can pull that, but they're not interested either. Their latest "Mini" model is still huge.
In my experience, farsighted people tend to be very casual with their glasses, whereas us nearsighted folks protect them carefully.

My theory is that being nearsighted, I can see my glasses - every smudge or speck of dirt is immediately visible to me because it's not too far from my focal distance. For farsighted people, the glasses on their face are so far out of focus that those things simply disappear.

If I lay down with my glasses and they rub against my face or the pillow, I know they're going to get smudged and I'll suffer eyestrain until I find a lens cloth and carefully clean them. Any nick in the lens will drive me crazy until I can get it replaced. As such, I am very protective of them - any time I lay down I'm fold them closed and lay them face-up on the headboard so they won't need more than quickly brushing off a few specks of dust. I also buy very thin, light frames because I can see them pretty clearly in my peripheral vision.

The people I've known who are farsighted (including my husband), are oblivious to anything on the glass. He'll just roll around in bed with them, and maybe once a week ask me to clean them for him. We have to get him heavier frames because the lightweight ones would be a mangled mess in a month.

So yeah, I'm guessing you have the latter experience... Sturdy frames and you aren't too bothered by some smudges when you get up.
There's definitely room for an actually FOSS pixel art editor imo. But everyone who makes one wants to sell it for walking around money on itch.io.

It doesn't matter to everyone but it does move the needle for a subset of people. I love to read my tools' source and fork/hack on/contribute to them.
I suspect, in a few decades, when the smoke clears and the very latest sub-infrared, stadium-sized space telescope finds fully formed galaxies several billion years "before" the alleged moment of creation, then the astronomical community will finally start to question the logic of prevailing cosmological theory, from the ground up.

The big bang was first postulated by an agent of the vatican, and scientists raised in any religious context tend to generate experiments that confirm their beliefs.
GPT summaries read like the kid who skims the chapter titles and tells you what the book is about rather than what it says.

Like, any cybercrime legislation risks “enabling mass surveillance, violating privacy rights, and creating avenues for state overreach without sufficient safeguards.” There is no actual content in that sentence, just containers. Any policy proposal that has the word “extradition” must contend with how it “may facilitate politically motivated prosecutions.”

> broad criminalization of cyber offenses, such as electronic forgery, could lead to the overreach of law enforcement

This is literally any law!
Now that you mentioned pets, it makes perfect sense to me.

My cat has indeed never been interested in socks. However, he'll move almost everything else. I still remember the day I had to wear sun glasses to classes, because he hid my normal glasses, later discovered to be behind the bookcase.
