Yes, but that's why the preferred method of implementation is using the S&P 500 futures (ES and MES) as the hedging tool during sell signals. With this method, you hold your preferred ETFs/stocks of choice forever and continue to accumulate unrealized gains indefinitely. Then on sell signals, you sell ES and MES of equivalent value to your long holdings to effectively go market neutral.

At the end of each year, you'll only owe taxes on the net result of your hedging with futures, and futures are section 1256 contracts so they are taxed as 60% long term gains / 40% short term gains regardless of holding period. In practice, I've found that this usually works out to an effective capital gains tax of less than 15% of annual profits. If a strategy returns a gross 30%, then the after-tax return would be about 25.5%.

Also, if you implement in a retirement account which many of our members do, capital gains are irrelevant.

I don’t think anyone cares about other people’s cheap pleasures. What people do care about is the displacement of quality and craft. For instance, you could say the same thing about the state of the web - say when searching for recipes. Maybe some people like the ads, the consent forms, the backstories? Why so purist? Isn’t it nice with a bit of scrolling and getting in the mood for cooking with a bit of SEO?

Defending craftsmen and attention to detail is not just about purism or gatekeeping. I appreciate people who care, even in fields I don’t personally care about (yet?). The professor who annoyingly insists on making sure every student “really gets it”, or the woodworker who is adamant about what joints are superior, or the kernel hacker who maintains rigor in face of hundreds of feature requests. The integrity of professionals can make or break institutions.

With AI reducing the effort to create garbage to the point of commoditization, people have a right, and arguably even an obligation, to be concerned. Remember, tech doesn’t follow potential, it follows incentive.
There are dumb TVs that are cheaper than business displays. Business Displays are not more expensive due to a lack of subsidization, they are expensive because they are built to be more durable (left on longer or continuously) and because businesses generally have a larger budget than consumers.

We accidentally invented general models that can coherently muse about the philosophical beliefs of Gilles Deleuze at length, and accurately, based on two full books that they summarized. You can be cynical until your dying day, that’s your right — but I highly recommend letting that fact be a little bit impressive, someday. There’s no way you live through any event that’s more historically significant, other than perhaps an apocalypse or two.

In other words: soapbox is presumably some sort of toy car that goes 15mph, and formula 1 goes up above 150mph at least (as you can tell, I’m not a car guy). If you have any actual scientific argument as to why a model that can score 90-100 on a typical IQ test has only 1/10th the symbolic reasoning skills of a human, I’d love to eat my words! Maybe on some special highly iterative, deliberation-based task?

> where "good" roughly translates to "inherent to the problem"

I don't mean per-page state (that one is inherent to the problem, as you say), but cross-page state (the one typically handled by backends, such as authentication, account info, stuff you've done in your current session, etc).

> Suddenly, your once static carousel component isn't so static anymore and you have to add a bunch of JavaScript, and also state.

You're right, all of this is inherent to the problem as well, and you do need state. Generally, however, I haven't found a need for state to cross pages, which is a really good reducer of complexity (things are easier to reason about if every page load starts with a known state).

> Maybe I'm missing something here but pure React/Vue doesn't require your page to be an SPA or to have any routing mechanism at all?

They don't require it, but they make it easy, and that's the default that all frontend development pretty much starts with. Nobody says "hey, do we really need routing?". They start from "the way you make an app is with routing", and now you have a SPA where you just needed components. That's the big problem, and we've had a fair amount of issues with this...

I appreciate that there is a barrier to adoption here. On the other hand, we’ve had office software that autocorrects -- and " to their more typographically savvy counterparts for a very long time. In many places, people use modifier keys much more than we do in the English-speaking world to type the wider set of characters used by other languages. Many platforms offer methods like compose keys or Unicode look-ups for entering special characters and plenty of people use them. I’m fairly sure that if code editors started offering to convert >= into ≥ automatically then the developers using them would figure it out!
This looks like it's related to the "Orchestrated objective reduction" theory of consciousness [0], which is a brainchild of physicist Roger Penrose and an anesthesiologist named Stuart Hameroff.

While I enjoy Google relaunching EV certs under another name to avoid it was just wrong about claiming they were useless and a bad idea... the cost is the point.

One of the biggest things people just don't get is that anything cheap and automatic is easily exploitable at scale, and things expensive and manual are much harder to exploit, and generally speaking not worth the cost.

The reason people got the idea the lock icon in the browser meant a site was legitimate is because malicious sites rarely ever paid for a certificate. Now that certificates are free, of course, all phishing sites use Let's Encrypt.

EV and VMC certs are not generally speaking exploited simply because it isn't worth the cost to do so.

I wrote a blog/newsletter/post/whatever about my experience. Absolutely experienced the wow factor as well.

What was more interesting was the word-for-word accuracy.

I fed all of my posts year-to-date into NotebookLM and had it generate the podcast. The affect/structure was awesome.

But I noticed some inaccuracies in the words. They completed botched the theme of at least one of my posts and quite literally misinformed in a few other spots. Without context, someone new to my posts and listening to the podcast would have no idea.

So, absolutely - wow factor. But still need content validation on top. Don't think any of you are surprised but felt it was worth emphasizing.

Citrus plants are known for being extremely easy to hybridize. If there is a non-loquat citrus tree around your neighbour's house, then it is very likely that you will not have loquats in your new tree. It might very well be a hybrid of something else with a loquat. It will take you about three years to discover that.

If you want to be 100% sure you're growing a loquat, you'd better grow it from a branch cut.

Funny thing is, I do not know what coroutines are and have zero experience with them. I am object oriented class programmer who never cared about functional programming.

I figured hooks intuitively and straightforwardly when I had to work with react a year ago. Ok, function with state, but it was easy to read them, imagine what they do and maintain the code. It just seemed as an improvement over the old react to me, despite having no coroutines knowledge.

But why? Isn’t there enough content generated by humans?

Just like unsolicited pamphlets thrown at your door you pick up in the morning to throw in the bin. Pure waste.

Yes, in fact non-bull regimes are where they earn most of their relative outperformance. During buy signals, it's impossible for the models to outperform as they are long the S&P 500. During sell signals, they are in cash with the hopes of rebuying lower (doesn't always work out as they are of course imperfect). When the market is rising with low volatility, there aren't as many opportunities for outperformance.

I had to solve a similar problem in Go once, partially to scratch an itch and partially to speed things up.

The S3 AWS SDK has support for doing chunked/parallel downloads if you can supply an io.WriterAt [1] implementation.

type WriterAt interface {
WriteAt(p []byte, off int64) (n int, err error)
}

The AWS SDK comes with an implementation that has a Bytes() method to return the contents, so you can download faster but you can't stream the results.

I created a WriteAtReader that implements io.WriterAt and io.Reader. You can read up to the first byte that hasn't been written to the internal buffers. If there's nothing new to read but there's still pending writes, calls to Read will block and immediately return after the next WriteTo call. As bytes are read through Read, the WriterAtReader frees the memory associated with them.

It provides the benefits/immediate results you get with a streaming implementation and the performance of parallel download streams (at the cost of increased memory usage at the outset).

The first "chunk" can be a little slow, but because the second chunk is almost ready to be read by the time the first is done? zoom zoom.

This is why we can't have nice things, too many tech people support Newsom on vetoing this. The nightmare of corporate surveillance and erosion of privacy we have to endure every day is a result of such sentiment and short sighted attempt at self-preservation.

"It's vague" yeah, that's the point, the industry is allowed leeway to come up with standards of what is and isn't safe. They can establish a neutral committee to continually assess the boundaries of what is and isn't safe, as technology evolves. Do you expect legislators to define specifics and keep themselves updated with the latest happening in tech? Would it be better if the government established departments that police AI usage? This was the sweetest deal the industry could have gotten.

> The source code has been released by Microsoft under the open-source MIT license, but the product available for download (Visual Studio Code) is licensed under this proprietary license.

I used to consider releasing software under the MIT license to be more generous since there are no conditions other than attribution. However by now I can see that releasing under a copyleft is actually more generous than a permissive license since the copyleft conditions also binds the author of the software to continue releasing their code under an open-source license. Turns out Richard Stallman was right after all.

> A distinct movement cluster on the western superstructure of the bridge of up to 23.50 mm per year [...] Additionally [...] from October 2022, the movements in the cluster began to show an atypical pattern with diverging paths

> Additional movement on the northern side of the bridge structure was also revealed, which could have indicated additional stress accumulation in the bridge’s western superstructure

So, the bridge was under stress and moving(breaking off?) slowly by few mm each year causing the eventual collapse? Was the movement due to the traffic over the bridge or also supported by the movement of water on the ground?

> It was also determined that bridge elements in the water, would raise the water level by around 30 to 50cm from the Carola Bridge to the level of the Waldschlösschen Bridge about 4.5km west of the Carola Bridge.

So, the collapsed and submersed debris from the bridge will raise the water levels by several inches having sone consequences for the Waldschlösschen bridge?

Podcasts can be a kind of social experience that's akin to morning talk show hosts, the actual content can be quite low. A real potential of this is the combination of the podcaster's intent and the listener's context. Between the two, podcasts can be generated personalized to each individual listener, while still keeping it a more passive medium and the podcasters can retain their personality in the synthetic form. This has really huge potential for those moments where you want to learn, want some personality and bias, but don't want ¾ of the podcast to be for a general audience. It's an interesting hybrid of broad and narrowcasting. I think by the time it's in the wild, it won't really be a podcast though, because direct q&a will be an option (albeit with the usual drawbacks of LLMs).
