Heya, Marcos from Airtop here.

You're right, it won't book your flight, but what it will do is (in your example) scrape Google Flights and return all the flights that:

1. Leave from Newark
2. After 6:30PM
3. That cost less than $200
4. Take no longer than 4 hrs 29 min
5. with only 173 kg CO2e

So you can be THAT specific and then it will tell you exactly what to book
> Get a CGM for two weeks and find out what foods spike your blood sugar the most

Are you in the US, and is it possible to obtain a CGM without a prescription?
Assuming you're in a Vancouver, is this true for all the retailers in your area?

In my experience prices are wildly different between grocers for some items.

I shop at whole foods quite a bit for staples. I have grocery receipts from 2019 on the Amazon app so it lets me easily see the difference. Organic canned beans delivered for $.99, now $1.3. Lentils, pasta, etc look about the same. This correlates with the CPI and grocery price numbers I've seen.

2-3x sounds like you are getting robbed. I don't know if it's a locality issue which I mentioned above.. but yeah I haven't seen anything like that in Chicagoland.
No, the kernel does not solve the major part of the reverse engineering, the Java application Ghidra does.

But Java does not need any marketing, people just quietly use it.
Full table re-syncing is our initial solution. Using Postgres logical replication is next on our roadmap!
We might! You could also set up your project within a docker container pretty simply (Codebuff would be great at setting that up :P).
Right, and there are better burgers than McDonalds. My point here is just to bring up an example of instincts getting horribly miscalibrated in a way that highlights the need for thoughtfulness and self-control.

Make no mistake, the term self-control doesn't just apply to food instincts, it applies to people instincts too. Your instincts want you to go around assuming that ugly people are bad and pretty people are good, but if you avoid every uggo you're gonna miss out (especially in tech) and if you trust every handsome salesman you meet you're gonna get rolled. Thoughtfulness and self-control are always warranted.
I’ve mentioned it before in a similar thread, but if you shave your head, get a Pitbull Skullshaver that can be used in the shower or while walking around the house, etc. About $100 and adding it to a shower routine is great.

A wand for the vegetable garden hose. About $70 and much better than a normal gun/nozzle for watering plants at the base if not all of your gardens are raised.

$500ish: 12v car fridge. I use mine camping or on work trips but also at home on mains power as a drinks fridge near the outdoor seating when people are around.
Is there a simple small claims court approach to this that would serve as a more convoluted way to actually access support from Google and other large companies?

I feel like if this happened to me I wouldn't even try getting in touch with Google support, having had enough experience myself and read enough of these stories to know it would be a frustrating waste of time.

But if there was a legal hack to do it that forced them to reply and cost them more money, even if it cost me some, it might be worth it in cases where the downsides (like losing your phone number of 15 years!!) are so high.
The All-In podcast should not be listened to as a reliable source of news, but rather as a data point providing insight into the perspectives and attitudes of Silicon Valley's leadership class.

If one finds their views to be objectionable/incorrect, then that means that the hosts' peers are likely also holding objectionable/incorrect views of a similar form.
I wish I had this sooner.
It means that using bruteforce to find all the values would be much faster.
The program that's roughly equivalent to TextEdit is WordPad, and Microsoft is in the middle of removing it.

> We've all been there: your app gains popularity, and suddenly, you're scrambling to add new servers.

Yeah, but the headache is usually from database, cache and other shared resource servers.

Scaling HTTP has been very easy for most applications for the last 15 years or so.

I have to confess I really don't see the appeal of edge workers in general outside of specific applications where latency is of high concern. Such applications do exist, of course, but this kind of offering is treated so generally that I feel like I'm either immune to the marketing or I'm missing something important.

I don't believe it's useful. I don't think Notepad is a "writing app." And I'm fairly certain not a single user in the history of ever has asked for this.
"Buy once, cry once"
One pattern I see is small private companies that have that have a pretty great owner/leader, but it all breaks down near retirement, or hand-off to another generation of the owning family, or maybe a temporary financial bottleneck.

Maybe it's ok that small companies have lifetimes and get replaced, but the problem is that today, there is always a capital pool collecting and the large pools live forever, so maybe they won't collect today, but if they are systematically there at the transition points, then we get big entrenched interests with enough accumulated mass to bend the market rules.
Under $100:

A desktop heat mat. Cost about $20, it has 3 heat settings, size about 13x30 inches. It goes under my keyboard and keeps my hands and fingers wonderfully warm all day. I don't have good circulation sitting down and cranking up the heat in the room heats all the other parts of me first, so this was a great alternative.
Under $100 - an electric head shaver.

I started balding in my mid 20’s, so I shaved my head with a BIC disposable and shaving cream. I kept up this routine for probably 15 years before seeing a curved electric razor made for heads advertised to me. I picked one up on a whim, and it has been great! It takes me around 1 minute each morning compared to 5-10 before, and I no longer have to worry about nicks. It uses about 1% battery each shave, so I only have to charge it every couple months. It truly has been a great quality of life improvement.

[1] the one I use is called the Hummingbird MK3, available on Amazon for around $60.

Why then are the republicans so open to lower gun ownership restrictions by the citizens?

If they were fascist wouldn't they be doing the opposite? I thought a fascist government would not allow or want the average citizens to own firearms.

This is just 1 example that pops into my mind. I can think of other examples too where the republican policies seem to be the direct opposite of what I read that a fascist government would want.

It works under the same principle as pressure washing, as long as the water pressure is high enough the final result is completely clean. Too high pressure can lead to material flying around everywhere but there's a very large range where the pressure is high enough to clean you but not enough to spray things around.

Drying is a personal preference and isn't as important anymore as you're clean down there now. Toilet paper is one option but you don't have to do it (I don't dry for reference) as it'll dry out by itself in a few minutes once you put your underwear on to absorb the water (which is fine because you're completely clean down there so it really is just clean water left).
Check out the ones that have a spray bottle attached rather than just a bulb as it allows for way more water before needing to refill. I think it was popularized under the name "Elephant Ear Wax Removal Kit" but there are knockoffs now as well that are the same thing.
I got a (non-cargo) e-bike for close to USD1000. Definitely a game changer - faster and more reliable than trains or driving to get to work. Any trip with 5km just becomes a no-friction option, where otherwise it might be tempting to get into the car. An e-bike is an excellent replacement for the second car (or, if you live in a convenient enough place, first car)
For those like me who didn't know the reference, see [1] Aaron Schuster, "Bachelors, Snakes, and Squiggles: The brief history of a famous literary doodle" (2009). Not only is the squiggle part of [2] _Tristram Shandy_ (1759), it — the squiggle — was also quoted by Balzac as the epigraph to [3] his novel _The Wild Ass's Skin_ (1832). Wikipedia [4] says: "Balzac never explained his purpose behind the use of the symbol, and its significance to _La Peau de chagrin_ is the subject of debate."

Which brand of fridge have you got?
that's what I think too, which kinda makes sense since it's a page, and not a browser plugin. If they implemented a browser plugin that would do what Google recently removed from their plugin, that would be a killer feature. (assuming they can then translate all html as it comes in)

Brave browser does it already though, but sometimes it's unusably slow.

US based plumbing. You are imagining things. Most/all resi toilets in the US use a flex hose to connect the toilet to your water supply. Its usually a threaded connection. All these style of bidets simply have a T off of this connection.

Nope. There's unlikely to be any adult supervision in the white house - unlike his previous term. This time around he has the power to surround himself with yes-men and self-proclaimed geniuses like Elon Musk. To me the question isn't can we avert disaster because clearly we're unlikely to do so, but what happens next? Trump's narcissism will prevent him from believing any of the disaster is his fault. That is what concerns me.
Neural Light Grid: trying to get something useful out of ML in production [pdf]
Short answer: raw video is big.

With my mindset, you have a gigantic chunk of data. Especially if you're recording multiple streams per machine. The immediate thought is that you want to avoid copying as much as possible. If you really, really have to, you can copy it once. Maybe even twice, though before moving from 1 to 2 copies you should spend some time thinking about whether it's possible to move from 1 to 0, or never materializing the full data at all (i.e., keep it compressed, which could apply here but only as an optimization for certain video applications and so is irrelevant to the bootstrapping phase).

WebSockets take your giant chunk of data and squeeze it through a straw. How many times does each byte get copied in the process? I don't know, but probably more than twice. Even worse, it's going to process it in chunks, so you're going to have per-chunk overhead (maybe including a context switch?) that is O(number of chunks in a giant data set).

But the application fundamentally requires squishing that giant data back down again, which immediately implies moving the computation to the data. I would want to experiment with a wasm-compiled video compressor (remember, we already have the no GPU constraint, so it's ok to light the CPU on fire), and then get compressed video out of the sandbox. WebSockets don't seem unreasonable for that -- they probably cost a factor of 2-4 over the raw data size, but once you've gained an order of magnitude from the compression, that's in the land of engineering tradeoffs. The bigger concern is dropping frames by combining the frame generation and reading with the compression, though I think you could probably use a Web Worker and SharedArrayBuffers to put those on different cores.

But I'm wrong. The data isn't so large that the brute force approach wouldn't work at all. My version would take longer to get up and running, which means they couldn't move on to the rest of the system.

Just tried translating your comment to German. Kagi took a very literal approach, keeping sentence structure and word choice mostly the same. Google Translate and DeepL both went for more idiomatic translations.

However translating some other comments from this thread, there are cases where Kagi outperforms others on correctness. For example one comment below talks about "encountering multiple second page loads". Google Translate misunderstands this as "encountering a second page load multiple times" while DeepL and Kagi both get it right with "encountering page loads of multiple seconds" (with DeepL choosing a slightly more idiomatic wording)

Definitely checking this out today! I use postgres for ~30 GB of machine learning data (object detection) and have a couple workflows which go through the Postgres->Parquet->DuckDB processing route.

A couple questions, if you have time:

1. How do you guys handle multi-dimensional arrays? I've had issues with a few postgres-facing interfaces (libraries or middleware) where they believe everything is a 1D array!

2. I saw you are using pg_duckdb/duckdb under the hood. I've had issues calling plain-SQL functions defined on the postgres server, when duckdb is involved. Does BemiDB support them?

Thanks for sharing, and good luck with it!

DeepL also, for the record (since it's being compared in the submission)

It's pretty clear if you use the words out of context and they're true friends but it gets you the German translation of the English translation of whatever Dutch thing you put in. I also heard somewhere, perhaps when interviewing with DeepL, that they were working towards / close to not needing to do that anymore, but so far no dice that I've noticed and it has been a few years
Alternative would be interesting, but successor is thought provoking. Do you mean to say most all Prolog capabilities will be possible to do in Meme?
What does this mean for journalists and historians then? Both are professionally obligated to expose themselves to power brokers (either in person or through textual records), many of whom are pathologically dishonest. Any serious biographer will tell you that self-recollections and memoirs are at best deeply flawed.

I think that it's more important to cultivate media literacy and critically examine "what is the author doing", not just "what is the author saying".

No I got answers. As I’ve been saying before, to which YOU don’t want to listen to my perspective. None of what you list would be halted or forfeited by the discontinuation of Starship. None of what you list would affect my personal day to day.

It is very clear YOU don’t want to consider any other perspective than “of course everything is perfect and good from Starship”.

I will gladly eat my words when it is proven otherwise.
This reminds me of this quote I love:

> "[They] placed too much weight on the introspections that they generated at that moment in time, and thus lost sight of their more enduring attitudes.” [1]

The quote refers to this study [2] in which subjects had to chose a poster to take home. The group who was instructed to think about their reasons for their initial choice, and had the option to change it, were less satisfied with it three weeks later. As the abstract says:

> When people think about reasons, they appear to focus on attributes of the stimulus that are easy to verbalize and seem like plausible reasons but may not be important causes of their initial evaluations.

This suggests that satisfaction is more correlated with initial gut feeling than reasoning, at least for aesthetic choices, but I think in many other cases as well.

Erlang, Elixir, Swift, Rust, Python, probably some others.

That list is roughly in order of how capable and useful the pattern matching is in each of those languages. Erlang was originally written in Prolog.

Also, I definitely agree it's a feature I miss everywhere when not using Erlang/Elixir.
A related trick is to put a few drops of (olive, or other cooking) oil in your ear canal. Let it sit for 5 minutes. Repeat on the other side, and do this for 3 days in a row.

Your experience brings about an excellent point (and something that is coming up in discussion frequently with the proposed under-16 social media ban in Australia - a ban that is being supported by all sides of their government.)

That point is that even the user making positive attempts to moderate their experience on the platform is futile and in my experience largely ignored. (I actually have the experience that it then shows me more of that content.)

Social media platforms are keenly aware that anger and fear drive significantly more engagement and whistleblowers have detailed how Facebook prioritises this content, shovelling it to users specifically to drive usage (and with that ad value and ad impressions).(1)(2)(3)(4)

There is a deep commercial incentive for social media networks to act against their own "community guidelines" and legislation. I applaud Australia's direction for recognising that these networks are not acting in good faith and introducing measures that address the proven harms.(5)

I think managing context is the most important aspect of today's coding agents. We pick only files we think would be relevant to the user request and add those. We generally pull more files than Cursor, which I think is an advantage.

However, we also try to leverage prompt-caching as much as possible to lower costs and improve latency.

So we basically only add files over time. Once context gets too large, it will purge them all and start again.
