Why does the graphic have two streaks and a triangle? I can't figure out where to get more information.

In case it's not clear what I mean, one streak is greenish and the other is yellow/red. The triangle is black and one edge of it is colored red and seems to connect the centers of the streaks.

I'll take an educated guess:

(1) they are two different elevations

(2) they are essentially heatmaps of strike probability elongated because of the earth's rotation

(3) the triangle is a right triangle situated in a plane perpendicular to the earth's surface so that the red line indicates the angle.

It's funny that they'd have a strike location on the surface given that they said it won't hit the surface. But maybe it's a standard way to do the graphic, in which case it represents where it would strike if it were big enough even though it's not.
Why the AI-assisted coding?
Interesting attributes to mention...

The urgency was faked and less true of the Manhattan Project than it is of AGI safety. There was no nuclear weapons race; once it became clear that Germany had no chance of building atomic bombs, several scientists left the MP in protest, saying it was unnecessary and dangerous. However, the race to develop AGI is very real, and we also have no way of knowing how close anyone is to reaching it.

Likewise, the target dates were pretty meaningless. There was no race, and the atomic bombs weren't necessary to end the war with Japan either. (It can't be said with certainty one way or the other, but there's pretty strong evidence that their existence was not the decisive factor in surrender.)

Public ownership and accountability are also pretty odd things to say! Congress didn't even know about the Manhattan Project. Even Truman didn't know for a long time. Sure, it was run by employees of the government and funded by the government, but it was a secret project with far less public input than any US-based private AI companies today.
When the actual power used by the CPU reaches 350 W, that happens because the BIOS of the motherboard configures the CPU for an unlimited power consumption.

In this case the CPU consumes as much it can before the temperature exceeds the temperature limit. The actual power that is consumed will be determined by how good is the used cooler.

The MB manufacturers do this so that their motherboards will win the benchmarks in published product reviews.

Unless the BIOS locks the power control registers, you can configure any Intel or AMD CPU for any power limit you desire and the power consumption will never exceed the set limit.

A low power limit will diminish the achievable multithreaded performance, but unless the limit is very low the multithreaded performance per watt will be greatly improved.

The TDP matters a lot for a laptop or for a SFF computer. In this case the laptop or small computer is really designed for a definite TDP, e.g. for 28 W or for 45 W, and attempting to make the CPU consume more than that will result in thermal throttling.

For a desktop, the design of a motherboard does not depend on the TDP, because it does not include the cooling system. The MB designer only takes care that the voltage regulator should provide enough current to reach the highest power consumptions that will not destroy the CPU.

The actual power consumption that can be reached without thermal throttling is determined by the case, the case fans and whatever CPU cooler is used. For most desktops it is easy to ensure that the CPU can consume more than its nominal TDP, without overheating.

I built an app that automatically creates videos and posts them to Tiktok. The goal is for users to be able to build an audience automatically then make passive income via ad revenue, affiliates, etc.

Can you give me some feedback about the features necessary for such an app, or my positioned value prop, especially if you've had success running and monetizing channels on Youtube/Tiktok?

Thank you :)
There is a reason they are writing a blogpost (affiliate links?) instead of creating a successful business that solves the supposed problem of shaving being too expensive.

[Dont know where the grand old man anigbrowl is on the SV centric political spectrum]

Before you get too annoyed, remember that these 2 (Greer & Farrell) are right of the SV centre. Their analyses would be about as accurate as left-of-SV-centre critiques like Barbrook’s.

I have read about 14% of the canon, and almost all of them honour the (certified sprezzatura-free) elbow grease. PG popularized “schlep” amongst the Sand Hill goyim, after all?

Here’s a post from someone in the centre that was reposted in the last 12hrs, i briefly went over it, and indeed there is a whole lot of coverage on the nuance of “schlep”. Feel free to apply the same analysis. :)

They said it, but it's a platitude - a lie. If this results in a broken kernel because the Rust part was not updated, the C change will be reverted to get a working kernel. This makes C maintainers de facto responsible for learning Rust to update the bindings.

TM:PE (Traffic Manager: President Edition) has a setting for more realistic parking: https://doc.tmpe.me/gameplay.html#parking-ai

I don't know if it strictly mandates having physical space persistently for every car that exists in the city, or whether cars still somehow spawn and despawn dynamically under some circumstances.

Edit: Looks like the car despawns if an attempt to find a parking space close enough to destination fails ten times.
I don’t particularly care about this discussion and I’m overall fairly sympathetic to what Rust tries to achieve but some of the claims made on the Linux ML by Rust zealots don’t help them. Memory safety through life cycle tracking is not the be-all end-all perfect solution to issues that some proponents paint especially in the kernel context and constantly painting C developers are irresponsible is probably not the wisest choice as a convincing strategy.
Coworker has one, appears to use it frequently and recommends to all.. I played with it for a while and it's a cool gadget, but it's too expensive to take a chance on it. Thanks for the software heads up.

I've tried things like this, the Surface, Galaxy Note 8 and 22, Rocketbook. I always fall back to my Tul Discbound system. I will say the Note 8 and 22 where handy because it was always with me.
“The double edged razor has become a product that you can only buy on the internet, and which you will only buy if you know that it exists.”

The first seems like a non-problem - I already buy everything but groceries on the Internet.

The second is a publicity issue, if safety razor companies really wanted to, they could advertise the shit out of their products and “cheaper and generates less waste” is going to be a huge selling point tbh.

I only use a disposable razor when travelling (hard to get razor blades through airports security!) and at home I alternate between safety razor and electric razor depending on how much time I have. My first electric razor lasted 20 years, so that’s also a much better investment than tons of stupid expensive Gillette razors/cartridges.
This is the exact level of details I was looking for. I'm fairly experienced with deep learning and pytorch and don't want to see them built from scratch. I found Andrej's materials too low level and I tend to get lost in the weeds. This is not a criticism but just a comment for someone in a similar situation as I'm.
IMO I think that safety razors are superior to the modern cartridge razors in every single way. They are way cheaper and I found that once you learn how to use it properly, it will give you a closer shave than a cartridge razor.
Same here, and PDFs are very slow to load and sometimes fail. It's also just a tad too heavy for one handed use.
It's been awhile since I've looked into it, but are you sure the open source software is compatible with the latest Quaderno's?

I've been happily using a double-edge razor since college (am now 35)

I bought a box of blades about six years ago for $20, I'm just now down to the last few blades and will have to reorder soon.
From non-university stuff, I did not read the book but I read the derivative works and applied it to my life: Getting Things Done. Specifically, Inbox Zero changed my life and made me a better programmer by having me become way more organized and on top of everything.
I went from cheap disposables, to a safety razor, back to electric. Prefer the new electric razors, but nothing will beat the safety razor for a clean shave.
Shaving is not expensive if you simply clean the blade after using it. Cleaning the blades slows the oxidation process on the edge which is the primary contributor to poor blade performance.

your basic point is that the cost of housing has increased to levels that are making life difficult for most people.

However the language you use is exaggerated to the point of hysteria, which kind of undermines everything you say.

Also, your original point was about immigration. There is a housing crisis even in countries with relatively low levels of immigration, which indicates that other factors are at play.

> . If you do it in Portugal, Southern Italy or Greece, it'll be 100x worse, hence everybody is leaving. And if you do it in Eastern Europe it'll be even worse: everyone (who even remotely can) HAS left.

While there are high levels of emigration in these places, what you're saying is exaggerated to the point of being bullshit.
OK, so it being easy for a subset of people doesn't mean it's "easy" in general.
>The multiple blades locked to a specific angle that makes a modern razor safer

So are the blades in double edged razors, which is why they're also called ... safety razors. The cap at the top and the bottom basically fix the blade at a particular angle, when you angle it wrong it just won't really cut. They were literally designed so people could shave at home instead of going to the barber.
I'm done with ReMarkable, the company. I have the original reMarkable and was enthusiastic at first, but it's been downhill since.

It's clear the company is now run mostly by marketing and business people. At some point they didn't do any software development at all, and soon after they actually removed features. None of the original hacker spirit has remained.

Most of your money is going to marketing. The device and software are insanely overpriced, and I see their ads everywhere.

Never buying any of their devices again.
That’s certainly an opinion.

From what I recall it was AWS developers trying to solve object storage, and EC2 came later. Not about ops.

A variant of bubble sort I think would work. Taking into consideration the 'rotating index', each operation would correctly order three cards within the rotating index.

In each N pass, we should see each element at least 3 times, and it must advance toward it's desired position at least once. since it can't be at the 'wrong' end of the triple multiple times.

Worst case in N^2 ops we should be done.

Note that RF does not make everything oscillate violently - the energy is dissipated by inducing spin in water molecules, leaving little energy to budge huge macro structures like enzymes.

Enzymatic oscillations are also to my knowledge on the scale of minutes, not nanoseconds. Even if it could cause measurable motion, I see no reason to suspect that a weak gigahertz carrier wave would form any meaningful interference with a .001 Hz motion.

There is a big difference between being unaffected by EM like us and having protection against it. It’s also very silly to classify things as “man made” here - what we work with is a small subset of what nature throws at us all the time (ever seen the RF spectrum of a lightning strike?). The main “concern” (pardon the quotes) would be exposure time, as neither energy nor frequency sticks out.

Feel free to share a link to some of his work that you find relevant - even if I end up disagreeing with the conclusion or methodologies, reading different perspectives do not hurt.

I just reuse the same razor for months on end, sometimes six months. It gets dull, which is actually great. I get far more face cuts from a sharp razor. The dull ones I find are highly effective. I always use premium razors.

I dont use shaving cream either, just some bar soap when I am in the shower. The hot shower seems to make my skin easier to shave.

Shaving with dry skin (with shaving cream) in front of a mirror is a nightmare, and has resulted in far more cuts for me
> Intel doesn’t have an answer for ARM

Is the Lunar Lake announcement not them starting to answer? https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/09/intel-announces-firs...

Good non-Apple ARM laptops have not been out for very long, so it's not like they're that far behind schedulewise.
While it's true it is a little easier, I also don't find I ever do it. Admittedly, this no doubt depends on skin and use case, and I only shave around my beard, not all over.

For my use case, I find the multiple blades get clogged more easily and make it way harder to get a clean line, so a simple safety razor works best by a big margin.
That is simply not true. That is why Rust is an experiment currently: it is allowed to break. Compiling the Rust code at all requires an extra flag to be passed, so breaking Rust code never breaks normal builds.
I mean, no, that's not what it means. It might be what we get, but not because "safety" is defined insanely, only because safety is extremely difficult and might be impossible.
All that money, we are not even sure we can build AGI. What is AGI. Clearly scaling LLMs won't cut it, but VCs keep funding people because they pretend they can build super intelligence. I don't see that happening in the next 5 years: https://medium.com/@fsndzomga/there-will-be-no-agi-d9be9af44...
Ironic that the razor you call double-edge was originally known as a safety razor - one of its main advantages over the previous technology (straight razors - of Sweeney Todd fame)
I tried the whole "old school" stack: double edge razor, Wilkinson shaving soap, hog hair brush. Still got a more comfortable result with a cartridge + any kind of soap (even hand soap). It's probably a question of getting more skilled/practiced with it, but now I keep a beard so I shave quite rarely.
I've tried for weeks and it's never got any more pleasant.

There was a very good paper in Nature showing this definitively: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41437933

Modern ANN architectures are not actually capable of long-term learning in the same way animals are, even stodgy old dogs that don't learn new tricks. ANNs are not a plausible model for the brain, even if they emulate certain parts of the brain (the cerebellum, but not the cortex)

I will add that transformers are not capable of recursion, so it's impossible for them to realistically emulate a pigeon's brain. (you would need millions of layers that "unlink chains of thought" purely by exhaustion)
As someone who rage-quit on the third question, I'm going to say that frustration is a likely experience.

DE razors have a level of aggressiveness. A Muhle R41 for example is a fantastic razor, but known to be hugely aggressive.

A R89 is much less agressieve and will be more comfortable to shave with if you have sensitive skin or are prone to nicks and cuts.

Lots of people talk about how to achieve the greatest smoothness, don’t go for that if you regularly have razor burn. Just go with the grain and that’s it, no across or against the grain.
In sailing and shipping, another vessel is set for a collision course for you if and only if its direction from you doesn't change (assuming both keep constant speed).

Is this roughly the same for orbiting bodies? If so, it would seem that things on a collision course would be harder to detect, as they're indistinguishable from bodies far away that don't move. Possibly orbital mechanics change this significantly, but over the course of a few days the earth's trajectory is pretty much straight.
Sergeant Ben Therriault, president of the Richmond Police Officers Association, told the Chronicle that these activities aren’t uncommon among police today. He said offers often seek out video from Tesla vehicles for potential evidence, and while he says they often make direct contact with owners and get the evidence voluntarily, a warrant — and a tow — sometimes prove necessary, should contact not be established in a timely manner. (Therriault acknowledged to the Chronicle that a tow is "the most drastic thing you could do.”)

A Double Edged razor - also called *Safety Razor* - is a tool that is pretty safe, and requires a few minutes (few shaves) to get the hang of it and virtually almost never cut yourself again.

You do not need to travel with exposed blades, you can remove the blades, and probably buy new blades for a few cents at the destination.

Making things superficially safer at the cost of wasting resources the future generations will need greatly to save 5 minutes of training and practice is the typical problem of our age. As the author pointed out, this trend applies to many parts of our lives with slight differences.

Probably my favorite kitchen experiment has always been to put water and pepper into a small bowl, and then dip a toothpick with dish soap into the middle, causing all the pepper to instantly and dramatically scatter away from the toothpick.

YMMV of course, but I always felt that it demonstrates something that's not all that visible and obvious otherwise - I feel like a lot of kid-friendly science experiments give an expected or intuitive result, whereas soap's weakening of intermolecular forces in such a dramatic and sudden fashion manages to connect the micro world with the macro world in a clearly visible, almost shocking way, while neatly demonstrating both why water is special and why soap is helpful.

I dunno, I just always loved it.
