Monocrystalline turbine blades are one of those things that make me appreciate how deep the state of the art is for a lot of "simple" things when you look closely.
I thought this point was addressed in the interview.

Then the technological growth will come to a halt. Or it will adjust to keep pace with natural evolution.

The bigger scare is when our technological output (toxic waste?) hurts our ability to evolve.

The changes are in quantity and quality of food - it basically gives me self control around food which I've never experienced before.
I think the autor would argue that we are still in the era of "crypto is too small to fully regulate" stage. But if we take it to the extreme and 50% of all transactions are done with a crypto currency, why would governments _not_ apply all the traditional financial regulations to crypto? Moving money internationally is not hard due to technical reasons, but due to political reasons.
Interesting how cartels seem to form by profiting off of laws that should not be laws.
Not necessarily - if you assume there are more qualified entrants than there are seats available (as is true for MIT), then scores could be unchanged - e.g. there could be, say 200 students in line to get in, all have 1600 SAT scores, 100 are black/Hispanic; 100 are Asian/white. Now the question is what is your tie-breaker - the old tie-breaker was Affirmative action, so more of the former got in, the new tie-breaker is, say, volunteer work, and more of the latter qualify for that and get in
Or, give it to someone who can't afford a horse but really needs one, because it will be worth more to them than to someone who can afford to overpay for it.
Anecdotally, the people I know who have been taking GLP-1 agonists have not been following eating patterns consistent with "intermittent fasting". They're just eating less (especially snacking).

Cast iron is a material, it's good for what it's good for but its material properties don't really come from the casting process, just the ratio of iron to carbon.

Casting has problems with thermal expansion, plenty of materials shrink significantly as they cool and complex parts cool unevenly which can cause them to break or deform.

Casting has problems with microstructure, plenty of materials, especially steels develop complex crystal structures with multiple phases of materials as they cool from liquids and even extensively in hot solid phases. It's hard to control this in a cast part.

Casting has problems with precision. The molds just can't be all that precise when in machining, a thousandth of an inch can be a relatively large distance.

However casting gets a bad reputation because most of the time you see it it's because it's actually very cheap, cheap materials, cheap process, minimal post processing. Higher cost things don't necessarily realize the savings from casting as much so they don't use it. And also a lot of higher quality materials have higher melting points which require more advanced tools to melt and handle.

Plenty of things though are cast and then machined, you notice this if you look.
Just installed Asahi a few days back. First time using linux, and can't say how amazing it is not to have to fight my OS everytime I want to make Quality of Life improvement to my system (e.g., window tiling). As great as Yabai and Aerospace are, at the end of the day they are hacks and glitchy.

Still some wood to chop before it is my daily driver - but am pretty sure I'll be spending most of my time in Asahi very soon.
My assumption is that they exist, but are now competing in a larger pool of asian and white applicants - who may have better access to extracurricular opportunities that are still considered in admissions decisions - and therefore are less likely to be admitted.
In my neck of the woods the obnoxious car crowd is comprised of slammed shit boxes which are mainly BMW followed by Infinity with a smattering of Honda and Lexus. The rest are morons with Mustangs/Chargers/Camaros - all the same car really and my friend calls all of them a Charlstamaro.

For the SUV crowd you have jacked up jeeps with "angry eye" body kits along with a mix of pickups from the major 3 and the asshats in Escalades.

Any BMW is to be avoided.

This is the second largest revision ever.

But let's say it's ordinary. I'll bet that if a different admin wins the election, the same people saying this is no big deal will make it a big deal, specially if it's around mid-term elections. That's just how it is.
Hopefully they reduce the cost overall. As soon as people are taken off it, whether that be because they finished their trial or they get out priced, appetite shoots right back to what it was before and the weight comes back with it unless the person changed their habits.
Semiconductors are stackable to get higher voltage. They're parallelizable for more current.
Cost scales linearly with voltage and current, and is therefore constant WRT to system power.
Gabapentin may be a wonder drug, helping with heretofore barely-treatable conditions and the ravages of addiction.

Weight lose drugs are just a shortcut for something that is possibly for the vast majority of people without any drugs. Don't get me wrong, they seem great! But a drug that can help with seizures, nerve pain, alcoholism and anxiety sounds a little more "wondery" to me.
You don’t need new water bottle factories, you just need more companies willing to truck in their supply from farther out.
Data clearly shows what people have been trying to argue for years – that diversity efforts in college admissions are directly at the expense of Asian applicants.
Castings can achieve shapes that are impractical to machine. A classic example is a spoked wheel. The spokes are really hard to make precisely with machining, but fairly straightforward when casting. Bandsaw wheels are virtually always cast, for example.

Also, the processes are not really independent. It can be much cheaper to do a rough casting, and then machine just the critical faces of it, instead of using an “off the shelf” hunk of metal and machining it all into shape. So it’s not really “casting is superior to machining” or vice versa. More that machining is high precision but expensive. Casting has some up-front cost but once the patterns are made, each item will use material quite efficiently.

The "1-2%" number the author repeatedly cites is misleading at best. These fees do not scale with the amount transacted. BTC tranfers are currently ~$0.80 whether you're moving $1 or $100k, which is a unique feature.

> SQL databases will continue to get faster as hardware speeds up - but blockchains only tend to get slower, as the volume of transactions grows.

This is also misleading, as there are systems like Solana which prioritize speed of confirmation, and do indeed get faster as hardware speeds up. It also allows for sub-cent fees (again, not based on a percentage of the amount moved).
It doesn't seem like anyone directly answered your question. As far as I am aware, all long distance undersea power cables are high voltage DC. I believe this has to do with the efficiency of power transfer over long distances.
> To simplify a bit, racial preferences existed because relatively few blacks and Hispanics had the test scores needed to get into MIT.

I think you’re just claiming the opposite of the quote here. I feel that doesn’t really add anything to the conversation, your claim also lacks any numbers. I do agree numbers would be helpful though — I’ll request numbers from both sides please :)
IF is a catchall for eating less rather than any specific the strict scheduling that influencers peddle.
I am not an expert or even particularly knowledgeable about this, so treat the following as “armchair speculation by an enthusiast”.

Wikipedia says that as of 2023, each expert is ~10 billion parameters, so they’re still much smaller than something like Deepseek Coder 70B.

I’m not sure why they’re so small though. I don’t know whether there’s some kind of architectural issue or super linear scaling somewhere preventing them from growing, or if they’re just trying to keep inference costs down.
There's also no useful output whatsoever if you actually tried any troubleshooting yourself.

Never has a chatbot been of help to me.

Haha it is true that one solution to this problem is to truncate test scores on the right so your pool of applicants all look the same academically--then you can use swarthiness as a tiebreaker!
I strongly relate to this post. Having grown mailsac.com to above average side project revenue, the admin overhead isn't crazy, but it's exceptionally repetitive and boring. So much time is spent on fraud and normal "running the business" really sucks the enjoyment out of a side project (for me as an engineer). I think that having a side project co-founder who is a relentless business operator is more important than having a decent technologist.
I can confirm coming across the exact same kind of profile, but in Europe. Most we found on LinkedIn keyword searches, some applied directly.
I've taken a couple of interviews to confirm and indeed it was a scam, they didn't know anything about the country, the companies, or the schools in their resume.

Many times the signs are rather obvious, the keywords are right but everything about the profile is just off and doesn't stand to even a bit of scrutiny. I suspect it's done on purpose, just like Nigerian scams, to optimize for gullible or inattentive companies.

I'm not sure how this contributes to the thread. This isn't a technical support forum, so it might not be the best place to discuss specific browser issues.

I've been using Firefox on Ubuntu since 18.04 was first released (about 6 years ago), and while I've encountered some issues, I haven't experienced the problem you're describing.

Of course, browser performance can be affected by many factors in your system. If you're seeking help, you might have better luck in a dedicated support forum or the official Firefox support channels.

The fact that revisions tend to be in one direction should tell us there’s probably some systemic/procedural reason for it, not that it’s political. I’m certainly cynical about politics, but the political explanation here just clearly doesn’t make sense.

>Any estimates on how much this will relieve our healthcare system.. aren't diabetes and CVD the biggest burdens?

I know diabetes is up there, but I was also under the impression that cancer and cancer-adjacent issues were a much larger burden on the system than CVD or end-of-life care (or aging related problems like arthritis or dementia). Could be wrong though - I'd love to see numbers and statistics.

>Will insurance costs come down if the US becomes healthier?

No. Insurers are public companies and need to increase profits every quarter. Lowering costs harms this ability tremendously.
It sounds like you're arguing with yourself. You provide exactly the reasons why generative AI isn't going to take us to a "place where human musicians can't earn a living". It's my understanding that most small bands primarily earn their money from live performances and merchandise, gen AI isn't going to compete with them there, if anything it'll make it much easier for them to create their own merch or at least the initial designs for it.

AI generated music is more of a threat to the current state of the recording industry. If I can create exactly the album or playlist that I want using AI then why should I pay a record label for a recording that they're going to take 90% of the retail price from? The playlist I listen to while I'm working out or driving is not competing with live band performances, I'm still going to go to a show if there's a band playing that I like.
Why "possibly anonymous" ? I don't think we can ever name any of these types. Rust's Existential types exist so that we can say we return such a thing, without being able to name it.
>Redundancy in communication is a feature, not a bug

Too much junk information trains users to ignore them, which leads to hilarity ensuing if there also is valuable information every once in a while.

Moral is don't send information to a user if it's not strictly necessary.

Work is the hard part of working on ideas. I document my ideas through the work I do on them. Writing them down is a waste of time. I have more ideas than time for work already.

If you want to make stuff, make stuff. Don't worry about it being useful. Not knowing is a good reason to make something. The next thing you make will benefit from what you learn. From the experience.

Ideas that you aren't motivated to work on, aren't worth having. Taking notes isn't starting. Good luck.

Interesting... I am a longtime Bootstrap user, and they offer a large number of other things that can be configured for the same purpose- alerts, popovers, modals, etc.

I've never actually noticed the toasts component itself, but have done the same thing with other components. I wonder if the feature was added after I started using bootstrap ~14 years ago, and I mostly just kept using the components I was used to.

Looking at it, I don't see myself using it because of the 'dismiss' button. I don't like things that obscure the UI, or encourage unneeded extra interaction, when I can pass info to the user without doing that.

I'm pretty sure it's because they're not paying full attention, even worse, sometimes already building an intense narrative with only few items internalized inside their brains.

I also feel that this is happening more and more, since there's more rewards for giving very small pieces of attention and energy to a bigger pool of people, instead giving extra energy or attention to a smaller pool of people seeking for one's help.

I'm just facing this with a contractor doing repairs in my house, a month ago was finding a decent mechanic to fix just 2 issues on my car.

The first promptly finds energy to discuss things it receives through social networks or messages, but can't provide a decent list of things that I need to provide him to finish his work faster.

The second case took a lot of time and discussing with 6 different mechanics, until th car broke and it was towed.

I'm seeing this more and more, unfortunately.
I don’t understand your question, like start a company with a scope that would normally take 500 people? Or have a company with 500 people, and try to grow only through LLM’s and not hire anyone else.

I have long thought that cryptocurrencies have had a similar effect.
>Are you going to make the claim that there aren't 250 students who identified as Black, Hispanic, and/or Native American and Pacific Islander that can't get either a perfect score...

Sometimes that is what happens with some standardized tests. For the LSAT for example, there are years where no black or latino test takers score above 174 on the LSAT. See e.g., figure 14 here: https://www.lsac.org/sites/default/files/research/tr-22-01_j...
> But it does not let me model records with variable size fields. This restriction seems totally arbitrary

Yes it does. Customers have orders which are an array. You have two tables then CUSTOMER and ORDER and you JOIN them. Why not just put the orders inside of CUSTOMER? Because now you can't query it, because you don't know how many columns will come out and you can't have disparate columns across rows.

So maybe you dump it all in one column, but obviously that has problem in terms of forming relations.

Sure, it's a different way of thinking. But its faster, its MUCH safer, the invariants are actually properly specified.

Sure you can use mongodb and that will work for wild-westing your way through software. But I wouldn't dare touch a mongo instance without going through the application, because all the constraints are willy-nilly implicitly applied in the application. But I directly view and edit SQL databases daily.
In your example, the average SAT score will be unchanged at 1600, but the new student body will still be better from the point of view of volunteer work experience

To my knowledge, none are, at the moment.

This is partly due to engineering/QC not being up to standards, insofar that the airworthiness certificate delivered by the Chinese Aviation Administration is not recognized/trusted in the West.

But it is not a political decision. Chinese manufacturers wanting to be able to sell and fly their airplanes in the West can simply apply for an EASA (or FAA) certification, like other manufacturers do. If they pass, they are good to go.
> No. Insurers are public companies and need to increase profits every quarter. Lowering costs harms this ability tremendously.

And selling their insurance at higher prices than their competitors harms their ability to sell their insurance to customers. Hopefully, you or your employer are shopping around, and not just for health insurance.
