As someone on Ozempic, and who has been through a few periods of weightless before - I'm not convinced it is just weightless. The three other people whom I know that are either on, or have used it, have all had experience with dry head and facial skin. It's not a long bow to draw to wonder if the drying is related to skin moisture and elasticity.

I've found a good vitamin a boosting skoncare regime and general face moisturiser application goes some way to noticeably reducing the flakiness and dryness.
My Japanese in Japan friend says the S&B is legit. I get it online and then just toss whatever in the pot with it. Great way to use up extra vegetables plus whatever meat you have handy.
Dyld (dynamic linker) does this I think, it's effectively similar to other relocations. Each dynamic library brings its own set of selectors (I just think of them as strings in the data section of the binary, referenced indirectly via a pointer in the objc_selrefs section of the binary which can be updated as needed) and at runtime they're uniqueified.

See https://www.sealiesoftware.com/blog/archive/2009/09/01/objc_... and https://www.mulle-kybernetik.com/weblog/2015/mulle_objc_sele...

I actually can't find much authoritative discussion about this on the internet, just those two posts. But since the objc-runtime is open source, you can probably find it there. I think it might be this method?

https://github.com/opensource-apple/objc4/blob/cd5e62a5597ea...

--

But I'm not sure what GP meant by "at compilation". I suppose the compiler could be smart by reading the selectors of any shared libraries you link against and avoid duplicates in _your_ binary, but that wouldn't work for two shared libraries that know nothing about each other nor anything mapped in via dlopen.

Excellent post.

Having an institution/career represent your passions, ambitions and most importantly your community is an immense luxury.

For the rest of us, it definitely makes more sense to put roots down in one place, build up community, indulge in the local arts scene etc -> exactly the kind of stuff that modern life is not aligned with. You cannot be moving around every few years and expect any sort of community.

I saw the reference to “apps like Figma” and as one of the people that worked on Framer’s (also a canvas based app) database which is also local+multiplayer I find it hard to imagine how to effectively synchronize canvas data with a relational database like Postgres effectively. Users will frequently work on thousands of nodes in parallel and perform dragging updates that occur at 60 FPS and should at least be propagated to other clients frequently.

Does Instant have a way to merge many frequent updates into fewer Postgres transactions while maintaining high frequency for multiplayer?

Regardless this is super cool for so many other things where you’re modifying more regular app data. Apps often have bugs when attempting to synchronize data across multiple endpoints and tend to drift over time when data mutation logic is spread across the code base. Just being able to treat the data as one big object usually helps even if it seems to go against some principles (like microservices but don’t get me started on why that fails more often than not due to the discipline it requires).
I’ve spent a fair amount of time trying different katsu curries in Japan and abroad and there are absolutely great katsu curries outside Japan. A little different, usually lacking a sweetness, but that’s more to target local palettes. Though I agree that the shop roux is a major disappointment.

You strawmanned my argument into brittleness, but there are significant other options such as that there may not be sufficient technological reach to even construct a reasonably accurate complex system.

I did not say things can only progress into brittleness, you invented that so you could have something to argue against.
Tell HN: My Vision for Sunami
My Vision for Sunami.AI: The Most Fair & Balanced Contract Analyzer™

By making sure each provision in a contract, and the contract as a whole, represent the maximum level of fairness and balance we reduce the chances of disputes and lawsuits, while increasing the enforceability of the contractual terms.

Fairness, not aggressive and intimidating tactics that leave both sides exposed to risk, is the way Sunami.AI can help make the legal system better.

And by making the legal system better, we make the world a better place, one contract at a time.

For consumers dealing with one-sided contracts and not sure whether to AGREE or not, or what their rights are, and for lawyers drafting contracts who could use an AI to shine light on critical issues of fairness and enforceability missed by most contracts , Sunami.AI aims to be the go-to tool.

The Go-To Tool for Conscionable Contract Analysis.

I made this tool so we can live in a world guided by fairness and balance, which gives us peace and prosperity, and not one guided by mutual aggression or the predator/victim dynamic.

Reducing the chances of disputes and lawsuits should be on the mind of every business leader. It should make more sense to both business people and consumers to enter into Conscionable Agreements that result in predictability and enhanced trust than it is to enter into aggressive, one-sided agreements that erode trust, build suspicion, and endanger the interests of both parties.

That's my Vision for Sumani.

BTW, those blinking lights are driven by the stream of tokens coming out of the error correction system prior to error correction, so they represent all the possibilities.

I have never mourned on career changes. I do miss access to things associated with a former career. However, I can often buy or build what I need due to strong electromechanical skills developed along the way and or as side hustle skill builder type gigs taken oppertunistically.

Learning new things and working with others more skilled than I always pays off. I end up with the skill and have a pool of help available should I need it. I myself can help others too.

First change was from manufacturing as a prototype mechanic / planning production mfg engineer to pre-sales and training related to then high end CAD software and related systems engineering. (Sgi IRIX and Win NT) I could make almost anything I modeled.

Second change was from the CAD position to General management and engineering R&D at a small company needing some of both. This was fun. I got to use all accumulated skills. I picked up several more.

Third change was into the Additive Manufacturing industry as services lead, moving into product development.

Fourth and current is tech founder in an additive related startup about to be funded. This one also allows me to use all accumulated skills. Same industry, so this is more like a move, not change.

That is three real, leave old career behind type moves.

Times change, I tend to go where the opportunity is and will do what it takes to rapidly master new aspects while employing what I know and mentoring others, usually seeking to help make more of my type available. I have a few to my credit, all doing things in ways similar to my own path.

None of that was easy. Some of it was very difficult. All of it was fun and rewarding

The best thing I did along the way was to network, cultivate friendships and help others. When I need the same, I usually get it gladly.
No it doesn't. It's just historical accident. If you look around you will notice that some demonyms are based on the country name, some or not. It doesn't correlate with it being pejorative. "Italian" or "Congolese" are not more pejorative than "Frenchman". They are just newer, because the countries are newer.

Not that any normal person thinks that there is anything negative with "some sort of preference for the country as country, to the degree that a person defines themselves by it". It's politically quite extreme to see that as "pejorative".
I remember a similar story from 2000s where somebody interested in graphics programming saved "make some cool effects" as exe.

I didn’t clock the use of “triples” as the store on first read. That’s a non-starter for existing dbs and pretty much a dead end for anyone who eventually wants a db structure they can use outside of this model.
The "dangerous" part of "anthropic-dangerous-direct-browser-access" is because you should never expose API keys in client code.
> Two graphics cards

This isn’t technically required, but does make things easier (search “single gpu passthrough). However, an integrated gpu for the host + separate gpu for guest for games is also an option and many modern AMD systems come with an integrated gpu.

> A monitor with two inputs or multiple monitors.

That’s not really necessary, you can use a hdmi splitter or just plug the active gpu in (I mean, if you’re dual booting you can only access one system at a time, so shouldn’t be an issue — you can plug an extension cable into your monitor so that and have a dedicated cable for each gpu, that way you don’t need to mess with plugs at the devices — I actually did this for a while to share my monitor with a games console)

Yes, it’s not the simplest thing to set up, but it does avoid the issues down the OP while still allowing gaming.

Personally, I never bothered because everything I want to play works on proton.

Chrome just added CSS Anchor Positioning this year. The other browsers also expressed interest in implementing it, with Firefox having announced an Intent to Implement. The feature would likely be available on all major browsers sometime next year.

So here's how your example would work using it:

.outer {
width: 100%;
height: 400px;
background: aliceblue;
anchor-name: --outer;
}

.left {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
background: white;
position: absolute;
position-anchor: --outer;
left: anchor(left);
align-self: anchor-center;
}

.center {
width: 150px;
height: 200px;
background: pink;
position: absolute;
position-anchor: --outer;
justify-self: anchor-center;
align-self: anchor-center;
}

.right {
width: 160px;
height: 150px;
background: gray;
position: absolute;
position-anchor: --outer;
right: anchor(right);
align-self: anchor-center;
}

I recently had to do lead gen. I obtained a copy of the chamber of commerce database from my country; in the order of a million records. Then I wrote code to import that into an SQL database.

Before that I tried LinkedIn Sales Navigator, but it won't let you export, you have to use other paid tools to scape from your (paid) linkedin account. Buying data from a broker was 0.07 EUR/record, I found that too expensive since I have to do a bunch of filtering after I get the data.

In my scenario, I don't need emails, just business names filtered by industry, location and ideally size. I was able to find a local online phone book which had the amount of employees for each company. Scraping this was a pain and slow but it enriched the chamber of commerce data a bit.

After filtering, I start checking out each company's website. I use a graphical SQL DB viewer to mark qualified companies. I then proceed to email and call the companies. Using a graphical DB tool I keep notes and track the funnel state of each company, as well as enriching the data manually as I go (contact info and names mostly).

For countries where chamber of commerce data is not available freely, one can buy leads, based on some filters such as industry. I suppose that is the "traditional" industry you are competing with.

A thing your tool might be great at is the filtering stage, in my case I used the officially registered industries/categories. Companies are classified in a very detailed manner in my country, which helps a lot, but still some granularity is missing.

Being able to use keywords, that are not just used as fulltext search, but passed through an AI, will be valuable. Without AI this would be very hard to do. Google has mastered this, if there are synonyms for a word, Google will still find all results regardless of the term used. Probably your tool will be able to do the same now, thanks to AI.

Good luck with the business. It is an established industry, but probably plenty of room for innovation and competition.
Constructing nodes of a hand-made linked list, how hard can it be?
That's what I've done for my chatgpt UI - I store the API key and any other user config in local storage.
This reminds me of the Linux/Unix disk busy "%util" metric in tools like sar and iostat. People sometimes interpret the 100%util as a physical ceiling for the disk IO capacity, just like with CPUs ("we need more disks to get disk I/O utilization down!").

It is a correct metric when your block device has a single physical spinning disk that can only accept one request at a time (dispatch queue depth=1). But the moment you deal with SSDs (capable of highly concurrent NAND IO), SAN storage block devices striped over many physical disks or even a single spinning disk that can internally queue and reorder IOs for more efficient seeking, just hitting 100%util at the host block device level doesn't mean that you've hit some IOPS ceiling.

So, looks like the GPU "SM efficiency" analysis is somewhat like logging in to the storage array itself and checking how busy each physical disk (or at least each disk controller) inside that storage array is.
Unless it's the client's keys.

Or keys obtained on the client's behalf.
It gets burnt off as normal? Ozempic and co make the users feel less hungry so they eat less. A kilo of fat is about 7000 kcal, humans at rest use about 2000-2500 kcal a day, if there is a deficit of 500 kcal a day they lose two kilos of fat a month (on paper); total weight loss may be higher due to reduced fluid contents.

When the author says "objective" they are referring to a prior that gives equal weight to values within the null hypothesis and to those without (along with a few other things: symmetric and non-increasing away from the mean). I appreciate this approach, and think there's much to commend it, but think that that's a key thing to be aware of (because any use of "objective" when referring to priors is, shall we say, dubious).
I agree with you. I do think there are different levels of cheap though.

I don’t have the eloquence to quite describe, but it’s the difference between a harbor freight miter saw, a Milwaukee, a Makita,(their 12 in. Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw, is amazing, but I still use my harbor freight dual bevel as well with a different blade for more construction ish stuff vs trim work / precision ish), and a festool.

My father drives me insane with this. He buys these $1 can openers that break every 3-9 months. He thinks I’m insane for paying $10-$20 for a can opener that has now lasted me 9+ years.

I probably would have been okay with a $5-7 one.

More succinctly : the cheap
One is cheap for a reason. But that doesn’t mean you need the most expensive. Usually the cheap tools end up being more in the long run. (Breakage, poor quality output, time, material usage….)

When I first got a 10 inch table saw, I couldn’t believe how easy things were: setting the fence, cutting hard wood, depth adjustments were so much faster. But I still have my 8 inch craftsman I paid $5 for at a yard sale 20 years ago, and it’s not bad.

You're basically arguing that the constitution is on equal footing with or inferior to the other laws. That's just backwards and to insist on this borders on gaslighting.

The constitution is the constitution. If other laws contradict the constitution in any way whatsoever, they are wrong and invalid. I don't even want to hear the argument, they are unconstitutional and they should be literally deleted from the law books. And they would have been, if these judges were doing their jobs correctly.

Whatever this notion of "abuse of economic power" is, it certainly cannot be used to justify political censorship because the constitution obviously prevails over some lesser law. The constitution is interpreted in the context of itself only. Other laws don't matter at all. So unless this "economic abuse" thing was inserted into the constitution, it is not an argument for violating the constitution. If it had been, surely you would have pointed it out by now.

And there is no "unforeseen cases" problem here either. The writers of the constitution clearly foresaw that people would try to censor political speech, and they made it a point to prohibit any and all forms for such censorship. I guess they couldn't have foreseen supreme court judges making a mockery of what they wrote.

Of all the examples you could have cited, you chose the jehovah’s witness blood transfusion nonsense. I'm a medic, that's not even the worst legal shit show we deal with on a regular basis. Words can hardly describe the problems that these judges cause with their nonsense decisions which basically boil down to "we'll go with what our feelings tell us on a case by case basis". Lawyers even have an euphemism for this idiotic situation: "juridic insecurity". My goddamn lawyer has an entire team of professionals at her disposal and all of them cannot figure out what in the fuck the judges expect us to do in that situation. If you respect their autonomy, the judges condemn you for murdering the patient. If you don't, the judges condemn you for disrespecting the patient's autonomy. In both cases they basically enslave you with some nonsense lifetime payment punishment. Those are supposedly unconstitutional too since Brazil has no lifetime punishments to begin with, but this is Brazil, a land that's apparently devoid of logic. The only conclusion that can be drawn from this is that you don't want to be in the ER when the jehovah's witnesses show up. You don't want the liability. Working the ER is already seen as a "reassigned to Antartica" tier punishment, and it's only gonna get worse over time. These ass pulls have consequences and they will be felt by our society.

By this point it's more than clear that we're never going to agree with each other.
Interestingly, with the move to IaC, diagnosing at the level of code change makes increasing sense. It's impressive to see their results given that perspective. Not obvious!

Seperately, we have been curious about extending louie.ai to work not just with logs/DBs, but go in the reverse direction ('shift right'): talk directly to a live OSAgent like an EDR or OSQuery, whether on a live system or a cloud image copy. If of interest to any teams, would love to chat.
Way back in the day on FB Ads we trained a GBDT on a bunch of features extracted from the diff that had been (post-hoc) identified as the cause of a SEV.

Unlike a modern LLM (or most any non-trivial NN), a GBDT’s feature importance is defensively rigorous.

After floating the results to a few folks up the chain we burned it and forget where.
The answers to online platforms trafficking in personal data and metadata is two parallel and concurrent efforts:

1. Much tougher data privacy regulations (needed per country)

2. A central trusted, international nonprofit clearinghouse and privacy grants/permissions repository that centralizes basic personal details and provides a central way to update name, address(es), email, etc. that are then used on-demand only by companies (no storage)

By doing these, it simplifies things greatly for people and allows someone to audit and see what every company knows about them, can know about, and can remove allowances for companies they don't agree to. One of the worst cases is the US where personal information is not owned by the individual and there is almost zero control unless it's health related, and can be traded for profit.
