I don't think it's necessarily a "happy medium", but wisdom to know what kind of pain it is, and what the cost/benefit is of the situation.

If you're lifting weights, the "burn" you feel after doing 20 reps of a light weight might be way higher in intensity than a little twinge in your shoulder; but the "burn" might be something you push through, while the twinge is something you just stop your workout for that day -- and if it happens again, may mean you take it easy on your shoulder for a week or two. That's because you know the "cost" of pushing through the burn is negligible and the benefit part of your whole plan; the "cost" of pushing through the shoulder twinge might be a month or two of no working out, possibly no more weightlifting ever if it's bad enough.

In most situations I have a policy of eating at least a bit of whatever's put in front of me. It's good to train myself to put politeness over squeamishness, and in any case I've often found new foods that I've liked that way. I've never eaten tarantula or grasshopper, but if someone offered me one I'd try it, even though it sounds disgusting.

However, I no longer eat sea cucumbers if my wife cooks them, even though I have only a mild distaste to them: I've already eaten them hundreds of times, I know I can eat them, I'm pretty sure they're never going to get any easier to eat, and she doesn't mind, as it leaves more for her. Forcing myself to eat them doesn't really have that much benefit.

As a "social introvert", I've learned at conferences to just go back to my room and take a nap if I'm tired. I can just power through the day without a rest, but the interactions aren't really worth it -- much better to take a break and come back fresh and ready to engage.

I could go on and on -- the key thing is to recognize what the actual cost or benefit of "pushing" is.
Maybe I'm too linear pilled (I am), but I really liked their old landing page, their new landing page feels like early web 1.0 stuff, nothing against that particularly, it works if that's what they want, I just liked their old landing page better.
I have some old glazed ceramic plates that I won't use any more. One of them developed a crack half way through and I noticed that, in the microwave, food on it would stay frozen but the plate would be blazing hot. The glaze was conductive with presumably lead and was absorbing all the energy. The crack created a slot that blocked eddy currents.
They are absolutely keeping it regardless of what I do, I cancelled two years ago (next month it'll be three years) and they send me daily emails about how they will threaten to delete the data when they have no intention of doing so.

You don't find that misleading and poor for consumers? Companies shouldn't have carte blanche to do whatever they want. Especially when I terminated a service years ago.
I have no idea how accurate it actually is, But I've had the process used by LLM described as the following: "Think of if like a form of UV Mapping, applied to language constructs rather than 3D points in space, and the limitations and approximations you experience are similar to those emerging when having to project a 2D image over a 3D surface."
Go to any commercial kitchen, and you'll find non-stick pans. eggs and omelettes are just foolproof with non stickz and nothing else comes close.

Cast iron is heavier, can't cook acidic foods, and just isn't as non stick. They have their place, of course, and are excellent for searing.

Oh and wash your cast iron. Soap no longer contains lye, and won't remove the seasoning.

Buy something that is silicone and use it as a reference. Silicone is distinct, but a lot of the words that one would use to describe it can also apply to plastic, strictly because language is vague. But once you have a reference it becomes pretty clear what is and isn't silicone.
Not a cooking enthusiast but you should not put cast iron in the dishwasher. Heat some water in the pan, add a tiny drop of soap and use a spatula to scrape off any residue. Once dry add some oil (otherwise it will rust)

I have never been able to figure out stainless steel on the other hand. Apparently the trick is getting to the right temperature but I have never gotten it to work.

On the health side, Teflon pans used to be considered totally safe until they were not. Now they are considered safe again as they no longer use PFOA. Burnt oil and iron oxide might not be ideal either but at least it isn't novel to humans as it has been used for thousands of years. Unfortunately, difficult to get hard science on such subjects as it would have extremely large studies conducted over large periods of time to overcome the noise. In any case there are probably far more impactful decisions in life than which kind of pan to use.
Lol no. AI peak perf difference (in int8) between this and 4090 is over 15x.

It's also possible to say "nothing" and just leave it at that. A lot of people are desperate to defend Apple by looking at security from a relative perspective, but today's threats are so widespread that arguably Apple is both accomplice and adversary to many of them. Additionally, their security stance relies on publishing Whitepapers that have never been independently verified to my knowledge, and perpetuating a lack of software transparency on every platform they manage. Apple has also attempted to sue security researchers for enabling novel investigation of iOS and iPadOS, something Google is radically comfortable with on Android.

The fact that Apple refuses to let users bring their own keys, choose their disc encryption, and verify that they are secure makes their platforms no more "safe" than Bitlocker, in a relative sense.

I stopped supporting Windows. Mom had to swap if she wanted support from me.
The web wasn't meant to be like this. We're watching the slow death of independent thoought and expertise, replaced by content farms optimized for ad revenue. When genuine experts who actually test products get buried beneath 64 shopping listings and recycled "best of" posts from mega publishers, we've lost our way.

The tragic irony is that this system actively punishes quality while rewarding mediocrity at scale. This isn't just about traffic or revenue - it's about the fundamental promise of the web as a democratizing force for knowledge sharing.

And this isn't a technology problem. It's a business model problem. When search prioritizes ad revenue over quality, we shouldn't be surprised when quality dies.

The solution isn't complex, but it requires us to rethink our relationship with "free" services.
But that's .NET, not C#. Language and platforms are different. Libraries must be compatible (because you don't know if your library will be consumed in a newer app).

But the compiler only consumes syntax (C#11, C#12 C#13 and so on) so I don't see why the compiler that eats C#13 necessarily must swallow C#5 without modification
Defensive Communication (1961)
You don't need to rewrite old .net project to compile it in a new machine.

But is also not a trivial task.
My brother and I are excited to introduce our app, ReadHero – a passion project we built with zero budget but tons of heart . We wanted to make tracking books fun, useful, and inspiring for every reader, no matter how much (or little!) they read!

What is ReadHero?

With ReadHero, you can:
Track books: Mark your progress with easy-to-use bookmarks and keep all your reading stats in one place. Customize widgets: Quickly view your reading goals, current reads, and progress right from your home screen. Take notes: Write notes with our editor, or even use AI text recognition to turn your physical book notes into digital ones. No more losing those valuable highlights!
Why We Built It?

We're just two brothers who love to read and wanted to make something readers would love too. We made ReadHero free to use because we believe in building tools that anyone can access, no strings attached.
Try It Out & Leave a Review!
We’d be so grateful if you’d give ReadHero a try and leave us a review. Your feedback can help us make it even better.

Thanks, and happy reading!
I would like to know if the plastic used in my Moccamaster is subject to these hazards. I bought it specifically because they claim to use food-grade quality plastic that is supposed to be safe.
I never use glass for cooking. I've had two Pyrex dishes explode on me. One was contained in an oven, thankfully, so that all that was lost was a week's worth of chicken. The other, unfortunately, shattered in the "kitchen" of my studio apartment, 5 feet from my bed. I had to spend the next hour using a flashlight to try to find and pick up the tiny shards that had flown everywhere.
No, not with UTC-12 (all positive offsets) or UTC+12 (all negative offsets). Any other anchor time zone creates separate days, i.e. positive and negative offsets.
Incredibly proud of y’all! Know the years of hard work that went into this OP
The GC that Unity is using is extremely bad by today's standards. C# everywhere else has a significantly better GC.

In this game's case though they possibly didn't do much optimization to reduce GC by pooling, etc. Unity has very good profiling tools to track down allocations built in so they could have easily found significant sources of GC allocations and reduced them. I work on one of the larger Unity games and we always profile and try to pool everything to reduce GC hitches.
That's what I did for learning to drive and it worked beautifully for me. I also got my license later than most, so when an opportunity came up to get lessons I just wanted to pass the test to get my provisional license ASAP so I could actually get around by myself with the intention to learn manual later. I did have a go at learning manual at first but it was going to take me a lot longer. I just needed to get my P plates! Where I am you don't need to retest for manual once off your provisional license which is great.

When my husband and I needed to replace his car (a little manual shitbox, god bless it) I suggested we replace it with an another manual, and I wanted a hot hatch. Proper hot hatch wasn't really in the budget so we got a (luke)warm hatch instead lol. A suzuki swift, manual, which I have delusions of upgrading so I can take it on track days now that it's my daily driver. He's got the CVT gig car for his daily driver now.

Anyway, I highly recommend learning automatic first and learning manual later. It's such a good skill to have anyway. I live in a bushfire prone area so knowing that if I have to evacuate I know I can confidently drive any car I have access to is nice. As long as it's synchromesh lmao
They shouldn't have to. Is silencing criticism with the threat of a frivolous lawsuit preferable to you?

I struggle sometimes with that, probably because I don't understand the 'put on another person' part. Would you (or anyone else reading this) care to give a recognizable example?
I don't really understand that POV. It is easier to never have to worry about it if you simply decline to use plastic cooking utensils. You never have to revisit the topic, never had to read any Atlantic articles at all coming out with "new risks" because you just decided to use wood long ago.
A good place to start is "Crafting interpreters" by Bob Nystrom. Then, after you gain some experience, you could try tackling Nora Sandler's "Writing a C compiler".
> If it happens in a minute at 260 C, it will still happen at 200 C, just slower.

I don't think that's particularly accurate unless you're considering the action of individual atoms. e.g. Water is considered to boil at 100°C but there will be some water evaporating at lower temperatures but this is a different process that only occurs at the surface. I don't think it's accurate to say that water is "slowly boiling" at low temperatures unless you're reducing atmospheric pressure.

Just adding that occlusion only works with games that have simple geometry, 90 degree corners, straight corridors, enclosed areas and no large difference in elevation. So its useful in games like CS or Valorant, but will not work well in open games like Battlefield or Escape from Tarkov.

There's also DMA based cheats that will read memory with another computer which can then output an ESP overlay to a HDMI or DP merge box that will show both the game and overlay on your monitor. They can also do aimbot by adding mouse inputs to a device you connect your mouse.

Websites sell DMA cards and these other devices together.
To measure confidence based on the logprobs of a given token, you must first know which token you're measuring - that's why a lot of benchmarks love multiple choice questions where the LLM responds with a single token.

But of course that's not the way LLMs are normally used. And it precludes any sort of chain-of-thought reasoning.

For some questions, like those involving calculations, letting the model talk to itself produces much better results. For example compare https://chatgpt.com/share/67238eda-6b08-8011-8d2d-a945f78e6f... to https://chatgpt.com/share/67235a98-d2c8-8011-b2bf-53c0efabea...
Insulation, double glazed windows and other improvements in reducing heating and cooling costs in houses resulted in houses doubling in size.

Increasing fuel economy resulted in many more cars being replaced by SUVs.

I used to use ϵpsilon, but then 32 years ago I got access to GNU Emacs, and I didn't look back. Maybe it's gotten better since then.

> For the rest C# is mostly perfect.

No! It misses "typedef", both at module API level and within generics.
I'd say so, and it's a bit misleading to leave that out. Code generation is almost as old as computing. So far, most of it happened to be deterministic.
> If you follow the advices of these kind of articles, you typically see an initial success, followed by occasional bigger successes, followed by occasional crashes, followed by unrecoverable crashes.

Aren't such articles only meant as food for thought? I find it difficult to imagine anyone actually driving their lives on it. Is that even possible for any kind of media, let alone such short articles?
There's a tool called Robinhood which started its life around 2004 [0], In turn, Robinhood Markets are founded in 2013.

Imagine knowing that Robinhood exists as one of the most popular (or the only) policy engines for large (EB sized) filesystems for but still naming your new company Robinhood.

I think Robinhood Markets should C&D immediately and find themselves a new name.

Fair enough, that's a little out of main scope for Xecrets Cli.

Just for fun, I tested now to build and publish for an ARM processor running Linux (linux-arm) and the build worked fine. I don't have a device to test it on though.

So... as long as it runs Linux and has an ARM or ARM64 processor and sufficient storage & memory it could work! (It's not tiny like a pure C-program unfortunately).

Would be cool to try...!
>Frustratingly, Netlify made us go through the full DMCA counternotice process—including a 10-business-day waiting period to have the site restored—even though this was never a DMCA claim.

DMCA is a scourge.

I think the whole thing is dumb, but at the very least there should be some form of punishment for bogus DMCA claims, and purposefully labyrinthine DMCA processes.

Edit: Just to be abundantly clear. My comment is a general comment on the DMCA, because the DMCA is mentioned quite a bit in the article, and the EFF was forced (erroneously) to follow the DMCA counter-notice process.
Maybe if you bury your head in the sand AI will go away. Good luck!
Just gonna throw this out that as a long time seasoned cookware junkie:

There isn't really any clear data on what exactly the seasoning on our pans is, and what by-products are also formed. It seems somehow no one has done an academic deep dive on cast iron. Heating oils to the point of polymerization is very likely to have byproducts.

Now for the conspiratorial part, it seems likely that large manufacturers (Lodge) have done the research internally, but they haven't released anything along the lines of "We have research backing the safety of our pans!".

In some ways I really would not be surprised if it comes out that the seasoning process creates all manner of nasty byproducts.
CEOs embracing the marginal gains of LLMs by dumping billions into it are certainly great examples of humans erring at scale.
C++ concepts restrain that recklessness, and people hate them for it. Rust will get most of that power when they finally stabilize const generic expressions. I like c# but like the article says, it isn't really borrow checking, so you don't get fearless concurrency. If I want to do coarse grained multi threading (not just a parallel for loop or iterator to speed up math) I only want to use rust now. Once I stopped having to think around thread safety issues and data consistency, I didn't want to go back. But for something single threaded c# or go are great and performant.
Thank you, I was unaware of this.

However, the fact that editing one copy edits all of them still makes this a non-solution for me at least. I'd also strongly prefer deduping at the block level vs file level.
Criticism? What would be the point in that? Where did I imply that such a personality type can absorb criticism?

Metal spatulas aren't an option for most, either, as they scratch pans. So what's the suggested realistic alternative? Wood?

Edit: wasn't trying to be snarky or anything. Honestly concerned for my family's health and trying to figure out the best path. Wood spatulas it is. Replacing all our PTFE pans with much more expensive cast iron pans isn't an option for our budget right now. Plus I haven't seen convincing scientific evidence that PTFE is as harmful as people here seem to imply. My understanding could be outdated though.
Ah I see.

IANAL. But the argument for the right to search was twofold, one was considered unconstitutional the other wasn't.

If I search you based on probable cause and fear of destruction of evidence, and the judge rules one was valid and the other not, is the evidence inadmissible?

To me it's clearly an if OR search not an if AND search. Otherwise you disincentivize multiple justifications to do something.
You also don't really have to worry about convergence, since these are formal power series.
I think that is well known amongst storage experts, though maybe not everyone who might be interested in using ZFS for storage in a professional or personal application. What I’m curious about is how ZFS’s full-disk performance (what is the best term for this?) compares to btrfs, WAFL, and so on. Is ZFS abnormally sensitive to this condition, or is it a normal property?

In any case it doesn’t stick out to me as a problem that needs to be fixed. You can’t fill a propane tank to 100% either.
Oh man, this is such a great lesson to teach kids interested in business: If you're (A) reliant on a supply chain partner, and (B) that supply chain partner is giving you non-obligatory preferential treatment, and otherwise meeting all of their commitments, then (C) do not go out of your way to say anything that would make them look bad. However arrogant you feel, be careful to speak no ill of them, not even privately.

This is lemonade stand stuff, not even "Business 101," and that Gelsinger made such a gaffe is just odd.

That TSMC so quickly voided the discount shows who really had the upper hand, anyway.

Unity lets you use either IL2cPP (AOT) or Mono (JIT). Either way it will use Boehm GC which is a lot worse than the .NET GC. If your game servers weren't using Unity then they are using a better GC.
They only scratch nonstick pans. Just use stainless steel, it's not that hard to clean.
I'm actually surprised that _the others_ always think that the programmers somehow will make themselves obsolete first? If it gets cheaper to make software, more software will be made, until we reach the point again we're running short on people capable enough to keep it all running.
It doesn't mean that in general; I think the author is saying "for sensible v" somewhat informally to mean "for v for which this makes sense".
the scratch non-stick pans, which also are horrible for your health.

The author is 50% correct. As John Wheeler stated "Spacetime tells matter how to move; matter tells spacetime how to curve."

The author is unfortunately forgetting the second part. If matter is quantized spacetime curvature must also be quantized, because matter defines our spacetime.

In principle one can even shorten the sentence and say: matter tells matter how to move. Spacetime appears only to be a convenient calculation tool. And in that sense spacetime=gravity isn't a force. It actually doesn't even exist.
