Yes, I read the "Rails" docs—the same that you linked—but I wanted to see how other projects use it. My surprise was that only a public project on Github uses it.
I really want to like this because it seems a lot more accessible to folks than latex but I'm getting that "uncanny valley" feeling like when I look at equations that have been typeset in MS Word. They look almost, but not quite, good.

Like if you look at the equation for Binet's closed form solution for Fibonacci numbers in the link below from their github, it looks to me like there is a bit too much space on either side of the plus sign in the equation for phi on the right hand side. And phi^n on the left-hand side looks too close to the 1/sqrt(5).

High performance is generally an anti pattern in software. The name of the game, at least historically, is first hiring and Jira task completion second.

The only real incentive to become a 10x developer, at least for me, is to use my time for other things. Otherwise, stepping outside the mold just upsets people in the corporate world.
it might be still impossible for others. tell a blind person to just look out for cars. tell a person with paralyzed legs to just get up and walk. tell a type 1 diabetic to just skip insulin.

obesity has a large hereditary component. important genes associated with obesity are expressed in the brain.

is it impossible to live with constant hunger and its consequences? no, likely not, but it's not really a big mystery why millions of people fail to do so.
Statistical analysis in psychology is traditionally very poor, because there is an exceptionally high amount of variability. This is a known problem.
I don't fully agree with you. I’m planning to set up a "MAME cabinet" at home, and in an era with countless devices, my first thought would be to use one of the Raspberry Pis I already own. But just yesterday, while organizing my closet, this HN post reminded me that I have a "parked" x220. It’s funny how the neurons connect sometimes. Connecting simple dots like these is often undervalued.
In the cloud vendor space (and really virtualization in general) local disk is practically non-existent. The vast majority of apps these days are stateless and generate very little IO, and even if they do generate IO, it's more than likely going to some kind of network share so that the VM can fail over. If the VM's data is on local disk, you can't migrate it to a new host if the host it's on dies (along with its local disks).

Presuming the other responder is correct about there being 880GB/s of network cards (and that the units are correct at GB/s instead of Gb/s or Gbps), that should be more than plenty. At the largest CPUs, 192 cores would be 4.5 GB/s per core (2.3 GB/s if dual socket). That's more than enough; I see a lot of dual-socket servers with 24 or so total cores running on 10 Gbps or maybe bonded 10 Gbps. That's about 100 MB/s per core.
The same is true for all aspects of I18N and L11N. From keyboard layouts to date formats. I've seen tools that expect US qwerty use hard-coded shortcuts that are impossible to type on different layouts.

Something assumptions and asses.

A tourist who can speak a few sentences in Turkish could get a lot of free stuff in small shops when I used to live in Istanbul. My "cute" French didn't have the same effect in Paris though.
Yeah, it’s annoying, but it’s the right thing in this day and age. Condoms are annoying too, but often necessary.
I enjoy using Lem sometimes, but mostly use Emacs. Lem is a very cool idea, and with Roswell it is easy to install and manage.

All that said, it seems like Emacs has been improving rapidly the last few years: native compilation of Elisp, LSP support, good integrations with LLMs.

The thanks come from the upstream release notes for 6.3.8, FWIW.
Except that sample size doesn't matter if the set of potential results/measurements of the dependent variable are very large. Someone pointed out that you can demonstrate that alcohol impairs executive functions, balance, etc. with a very small sample size, because the effects would be so large and evident that your statistical power would be. On very large variance, where the results are dichotomous in nature (can a subject walk straight in a 10 meters line, without walking outside: yes/no) can have a very small sample size.

Use this calculator, set options to: two independent groups, dichotomous, group 1 = 90%, group 2 = 10%, incidence, enrollment ratio = 1, alpha = 0.05 and power = 80%. The sample size is 10, 5 for each group. https://clincalc.com/stats/samplesize.aspx

Health > Heart Rate Variability > Show All Data lets you see the exact timestamp and source for any stored data point. And for HRV specifically it will give you the list of millisecond-timestamped heartbeats it considered for that measurement as well.

Pronunciation bears little relation to how words are written. For the longest time I thought I knew how to pronounce Greenwich, because I knew how to pronounce ‘green’ and ‘sandwich’. (Or things like advertising vs. advertisement, etc.) I saw a joke somewhere that western people think Chinese must be difficult because you have to memorize the pronunciation of so many symbols, but English is no different.

> make a feature addition to ie Kubernetes, or the Linux kernel

In your example, you're contributing to other people projects so yes it would be contribution right of the bat. That's completely different than the case with ACF.
> I _think_ I understand the basic premise behind stable diffusion, i.e., reverse the denoising process to generate realistic images but, as far as I know, this is always done at the pixel level.

It's typically not done at the pixel level, but at the "latent space" level of e.g. a VAE. The image generation is done in this space, which has fewer outputs than the pixels of the final image, and then converted to the pixels using the VAE.
In my experience, Markdown isn't the barrier. It's the:

- Plugin ecosystem. Marketing people want to use specific plugins for SEO, automatic internal linking, etc. Those plugin only work with wordpress.

- Marketing people want to deploy to production. They hate waiting for dev to do anything (which brings us back to the importance of the plugin ecosystem, to add functionality without developers).

- It's a familiar system that doesn't need to be "learned" by end users (the same way VS Code, VIM, or whatever is your preferred code editor)

If it weren't for the first 2 barriers, I think the 3rd (learning markdown) is the easiest to overcome. Especially with side-by-side realtime markdown rendering, which itself is a form a WYSIWYG.

Edit: FWIW, we moved to Webflow at my company, used to be on Wordpress, and before that used to have a Markdown-compiled site, help docs, and blog. Markdown-compiled was my favorite as a developer (and also the most performant), but it was everyone else's least favorite because it required me to deploy and make code changes, and they weren't patient enough to put a ticket in for every change request. They also understandably didn't want to login Github to make updates to markdown files.
Yeah Transmit is one of the OG Mac apps (OS X) that were great at a reasonable price.
Sadly, they don't make them like this anymore.

> If that's true, I'm confused how this is a "double-blind, randomized, controlled trial"?

Those are design descriptions.

Double blind means that neither patient nor the one administering the treatment knows which is which. Randomized only means that each subject is assigned randomly a treatment group. Controlled trial just means that the study design made sure that other variables that are not under experiment are also under control. Nothing about this preclude actions done to the subjects nor sample sizes.

AI is very good at generating this kind of word vomit.
It can use the game directly but if you try this with real life robots, then it is better to do neural simulation before performing an action that could result in injury or damage. We don't need to fall with our cars off the road many times to learn to drive on the road because we can imagine the consequences. Same thing here.
> I've commuted both on trains and in cars, and when comparing transportation methods near the saturation point, cars win when it comes to personal comfort.

Note that if you're at the saturation point of both modes, you're moving a lot more people with (light/heavy) rail:

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Passenger_Capacity_of_dif...

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Route_capacity

Also worth considering that while it may be personally comfortable for you in on saturated rail, you're still moving towards your destination, whereas at car saturation you may be physically comfortable, but you are not making progress towards your goal of actually achieving your goal of getting to your destination while your speed is zero.

Someone who makes that kind of statements intentionally and publicly while building a political platform on it is simply irrecoverable.

I don't really care if a few years later he found out that it was politically more convenient for him to fall in line with western values. He was a fascist crook either way. Shame on so-called "liberals" who glorify him.
No one is targeting floppies now. But they were in the 90s. So at that time, you did have to worry that some floppy contained more than you expected.
Saizeriya's Secret to Survival
If I understand it correctly, the core of the dispute is trademark and that WPEngine somehow implies WordPress affiliation.

I've been playing around with something similar with a desktop. One suggestion if you've got old/spare/small drives is bcachefs to handle combining SSD and HDD, multiple of each even and with different sizes. I haven't been running it long enough to comment on stability (nothings gone wrong yet), but it's nice to not have to manually deal with moving files around, especially during the initial transfer of games. It's just for games, I'm not worried about losing files.

My old laptop has an mSATA 64GB SSD. None of my other devices have an mSATA slot, I don't even think it's worth getting an adapter to use it anywhere else.
He has certainly gained a lot of personal attention. Maybe he was feeling lonely?
What a terrible take

WordPress.com is only successful in the first place because WordPress was open source and had so many hosting options

Also what do you mean it was modified? WPE didn't fork or modify WordPress any more than other hosts
In that case the submitted title is complete and utter lies. It's not free and not an alternative to Typora.
But do not stop eating. My advice.
Yes this is true, you do lose some information between the layers, and this increased expressibility is the big benefit of using ML instead of classic feature engineering. However, I think the gain would be worth it for some use cases. You could for instance take an existing image, run that through a semantic segmentation model, and then edit the underlying image description. You could add a yellow hat to a person without regenerating any other part of the image, you could edit existing text, change a person's pose, you could probably more easily convert images to 3D, etc.

It's probably not a viable idea, I just wish for more composable modules that lets us understand the models' representation better and change certain aspects of them, instead of these massive black boxes that mix all these tasks into one.

I would also like to add that the text2image models already have multiple interfaces between different parts. There's the text encoder, the latent to pixel space VAE decoder, controlnets, and sometimes there a separate img2imgstyle transfer at the end. Transformers already process images patchwise, but why does those patches have to be even square patches instead of semantically coherent areas?
It's desktop Linux with Android API (not emulation, i.e., very fast; but currently lacks some features like the access to camera).
Been there, tried that.

You must first provide photo ID, name, address, phone number - all sorts of data not presently on the account - in order to verify identity to delete the account.

And then of course they'll retain it all under the guise of financial regulation (legitimately) and probably sell it (scummily).
But it kind of defeats the purpose of encoding which of a fixed set of generation methods you are using in the ID, which is presumably to avoid having to check that none of the O(N^2) pair-wise combinations of N methods produce collisions.
Yikes. No, leave me alone. I don't need weekly 1:1 meetings and other stupidity.
The goal is to train agents that can imagine consequences before acting. But it could also become a cheap way to create experiences and user interfaces on the fly, imagine if you can have any app UI dreamed up like that, not just games. Generative visual interfaces could be a big leap over text mode.
Why not get a PC from the '90s with CRT monitor and everything?

If you like playing old games in their natural environment, then you can't beat that in authenticity.
And WPEngine does not own Wordpress or its ecosystem, right? So that's also "other people's projects" if they produce something of value to its ends users?
I used to do a lot of consulting work using Common Lisp on remote servers and would frequently need to set up tmux, Emacs, SBCL, Slime, etc. on remote servers to do my work. Keep good notes, and it gets much easier and faster.
Managers and managers of managers, absent a few limited scenarios (vocation, edge case personal finance stuff) your high performers are seeking more comp. No fluff or hallway conversation will make up for that. You’ve got to make their lives decent and win the end of FY comp knifefight. You can safely ignore everything this person wrote.
Just looking at the first video, there's a section where structures just suddenly appear in front of the player, so this does not appear to build any kind of map, or have any kind of meaningful awareness of something resembling a game state.

This is similar to LLM-based RPGs I've played, where you can pick up a sword and put it in your empty bag, and then pull out a loaf of bread and eat it.
Yes, when I was taking life drawing classes in animation school, every class opened with about 15 minutes of 10-60sec poses, followed by some longer poses, as well as chunks of lecture from the teacher on how various body parts are put together and how to think about that on the page. Those short poses seemed impossible at first but very quickly became pretty good.

Later on a regular exercise at one of the studios I worked at was "cartoon life drawing", we'd pause a video tape on a good frame from an old WB cartoon, and draw. There was a built-in timer since the VCR would only hold a single frame for so long before saying "okay we're playing again now".
Do you mean in the sense that they'll make a token attempt that only stops the laziest among us, or do you mean they'll actually manage to stop it?

Because I don't think their attempts to stop people from recording stuff on their TV's has worked out well. HDMI strippers are cheap and plentiful, though many of them aren't meant to be HDMI strippers and are just out of spec devices because it's cheaper to not implement.

Doesn't Netflix's stuff still end up on pirating sites hours after it releases?

I don't think it's fundamentally possible to prevent people from recording stuff off their output cables using current technology; or at least not long term (until the keys leak). It might happen if those theoretical quantum connection systems work out where you can tell whether the data has already been read or not by checking if the waveform is collapsed (or so I understand, not a physicist).

Arise, you have nothing to lose but your barbed wire fences.

Threatening that (or just using keywords like GDPR) works great for most companies when you can't find it on the website or mailing list has no unsubscribe link or whatever, but you're forgetting quite how much of a scummy company PayPal is.
Yes, that is the problem, precisely. Lualatex and xelatex do not support all the features of plain latex (mostly "hacky" things, like pdf controls, js animations in beamer, etc). So, you have to chose between using these features and being able to type unicode letters directly.

Probably there is a magic combination of engines and packages that allows to do everything at the same time, but I haven't found it.

If this works natively in typst, it's a great selling point for me (although I dislike the markdown-like syntax).
I've been trying for years in a place with GDPR.
Definitely, that would make much more sense seeing how content is produced by people. Adjust the technology to how people want to use it instead of forcing artists becoming prompt engineers and settling for something close enough what they want.

At the very least image generators should output layers, I think the style component is already possible with the img2img models.
