Okay, I should have said “a” instead of using “the” when there is no clear antecedent allowing it to be interpreted ambiguously in exactly that single sentence which apparently invalidated the fact that I was obviously talking in generalities of API design and implementation.

It did not even occur to me that anybody would even think this was some sort of statement about whatever libc they use on Linux given that I said just “buffered accesses” with no reference to platform or transport channel.

I thought somebody might think I was talking about just writes, so I deliberately wrote accesses.

I thought somebody would make some sort of pedantic statement if I just said “should” so I wrote “should almost always”.

I thought somebody might think I was talking about write() in particular so I deliberately avoided talking about any specific API to head that off.

In my reply I deliberately said “blocking read/wait” instead of select() or epoll() or io_uring or whatever other thing they use these days to avoid such confusion that it was a specific remedy for a specific library or API.

But, alas, here we are. My pedantry was no match for first contact. You will just have to forgive my inability to consider the dire implications of minor ambiguities.

The article also says,

During World War II, Hitler’s soldiers marched off to battle with field-gray edi­tions of Friedrich Nietzsche’s works in their packs, and ordinary Germans were occasionally urged on with the philosopher’s words.

Seems like 'little red book' vibes to me.

On the other hand, do you really think Stalin faithfully represented Marx's ideas? There are many parallels between Stalin's approach to Marx and Hitler's to Nietzsche, even regarding obvious misintrepretation.

As above, so below. These lines of thinking sees sleep as a hygiene factor for maintaining bio stasis. We also process experiences and “simulate” effects of potential actions in the waking state. These “software-level” sleep activities seems less quantifiable in terms of sleep-time efficiency. If I get an evolutionary advantage from better consolidated experiences through longer dream sessions, how would that compare with more “face-time” with lions and famines in my waking state?
There is a nasty “all things being equal” fallacy hidden in this line of thinking.
We need to continue with the gold analogy…

So far, we have not detected the effect of someone who can turn lead into gold. Nor have we detected a breakthrough in SHA256 speed.

So far, we have not detected an ambient process in which gold corrodes away in storage. Nor have we detected a crack in SHA256.

The best information about any of those phenomena is that, as President, Donald Trump had access to what NSA knew about gold and SHA256.

"We dont dispose of dead soldiers in unmarked pits, not individuals."

Not sure if I understand you right, but unmarked pits were very much a common thing in the last days of WW2 in europe. Plenty of dead individuals, no one knew where they belonged and not much interest to find out.
The body text is also quite hard to read because the font has a tall x-height and line spacing is very tight.

This makes paragraphs look very dense, almost like it was set in uppercase only, because the lowercase letters don’t create a varying flow between lines for the eye to follow.

I think react native is always a better choice than tools like cordova while the best choice is native development. every time i use a cordova app it is painful and you just know something is off. react-native apps are a lot nearer to native experience. you can differ them if your really trying to though. but if your just want a good native ios and android app react-native is a good choice. and you can slowly learn native development from there and shift to native if you like.

My experience is that IP reputation does a lot more for Cloudflare than browsers ever did. I tried to see if they'd block me for using Ladybird and Servo, two unfinished browsers (Ladybird used to even have its own TLS stack), but I passed just fine. Public WiFi in restaurants and shared train WiFi often gets me jumping through hoops even in normal Firefox, though.

Apps as a platform are at a disadvantage. The bar for entry is roughly as low as creating a website, but for users it’s a higher bar to install an app.

Yet the app doesn’t offer any intrinsic advantage in discovery or marketing over a website. (You’re not going to get any organic traffic from app stores, unless maybe if you have contacts at Apple who can get your app into their promotions — unlikely for an indie dev publishing their first app.)

So if you’re making an app, you need to be sure that users in your niche will see enough benefit that they’ll want to install an app when your competitor is probably just a website.

Gen X isn't that young for the most part. My take would be more: they've grown up with capital interests consolidating and commodifying every aspect of life and thus they're realistically looking at the costs and knowing they need more than what feels intuitively reasonable.

The delusion, or naivety, is that they'll find success. Then again what's the alternative? Death.
So you say we need a easily accessible RCE-API to make this even simpler?
That assumes spammers are using their own hardware to post. If they're using a botnet, they don't care about CPU cycles. Botnets would probably become even more profitable in that model.
Except in reality 99% of people will just take the example (or auto-generated) linker scripts from the MCU manufacturer without understanding a thing about them and call it a day.

I've always wanted to reduce my sleep requirement. These days I naturally sleep for 8 hours. It's not completely wasted; my brain often figures out difficult problems while I sleep. But if I could do something relaxing like playing a game or socialising instead that would be great.

I did try polyphasic sleep when I was younger but it didn't work out. Having my sleeping patterns so far off the standard made me really unhappy.

Hey, discussion of orexin receptor stuff! As someone with clinically-diagnosed insomnia, I've been lucky enough to/unfortunate enough to have to try the orexin receptor antagonist sleep aids for a while. As recent, on-patent drugs, they are very, very expensive ($360/month was the number marked on the receipt slip, not that that means much in the US; I certainly wasn't paying that)... and they work. They really, really do work. I was prescribed them because I tried every single other class of sleep aid on the market and they were mostly ineffective, had massive side effects, or were benzos (temazepam: best sleep of my life, but better not use it for longer than a month!).

This stuff? Orexin receptor antagonists? They work. Holy crap, do they ever work. Sleep quality better than the Z-drugs, great tolerability, no massive disruption going off them... when these things go off-patent they're going to be massive. Sleep quality was not perfect (maybe 80% of "normal"? I don't know) but that is absolutely minor compared to the alternative.

(And for the record, I'm off them now due to other stuff clearing up such that I don't need this level of sleep assistance anymore. Not because I can't afford them.)

I guess that's a long-winded way to say that if you're going to do questionably-advised sleep biohacking, orexin receptors are probably the place to start.

Beam search just traverses different paths and assigns each path a probability of being correct. The paths with the higher probabilities are kept and the ones with lower probabilities are pruned until the search terminates with an "answer". The marketing department calls it "reasoning" and "test-time compute" because the average consumer does not care whether it's beam search or something else.

Your link seems to do a good job of explaining beam search but it's a classic algorithm in state space exploration so most books on search algorithms and discrete optimization will have a section about it.¹

A framework is declarative. You declare what you want. Generally in a configuration file and you get an app.

A library does not impose any configuration. I don’t see any required configuration with React. You can use it wherever you want in your code as an addition.

In Forth parsing doesn't even come into play, because an operator just tries to pop as many arguments off the stack as it needs. Annoyingly, that does mean there's no way to tell what the following:

a b +

Means, as it can be any of these, for example:

add(b, a)
add(b(a))
add(b(a()))
add(b(), a())
add(b, a())
add(b(), a)

In a language where you don't need brackets for function calls it can be reduced to:

add b, a
add b a

And even if the add function takes two arguments the second option would be fine because the call:

b a

May put two arguments on the stack.
add(b(), a())

As the article somewhat gets into, fatigue is a terrible descriptor for the litany of issues that can ravage one post-infection.

Seemingly mild mono (Epstein-Barr) absolutely ruined the brain of one of the most talented dual-major Mechanical/Electrical engineers at my university in his last year. Saw him crying in more than one of our professors offices after he tried to come back because he couldn’t think straight enough to do 8th grade math anymore. Never recovered to my knowledge of a few years after, but it’s been a few years since I’ve heard anything of him. Medical imaging, at that time, purportedly showed nothing wrong with his brain. No help to be had.
Here is what I got from o1:

To find two prime numbers that sum to 123, let’s consider the properties of prime numbers and the nature of their sums:
1. Prime Numbers Greater Than 2 Are Odd: Except for 2, all prime numbers are odd.
2. Sum of Two Odd Numbers Is Even: Adding two odd numbers results in an even number.
3. Sum of an Even and an Odd Number Is Odd: Adding an even number (like 2) and an odd number results in an odd sum.

Given that 123 is an odd number, the only way two primes can sum to 123 is if one of them is 2 (the only even prime) and the other is an odd prime. Let’s test this possibility:
• 2 + x = 123 ⇒ x = 121

However, 121 is not a prime number (since ).

Next, consider the possibility of adding two odd primes:
• Odd Prime + Odd Prime = Even Number

Since adding two odd primes yields an even number, it’s impossible for two odd primes to sum to 123 (an odd number).

Conclusion: There are no two prime numbers that sum to 123.

Answer: There are no two prime numbers whose sum is 123; such primes do not exist.

Many keys means you'll have to move the hands to reach the outermost (or at least rotate the hand around it's "heel" bone). It limits speed and adds to fatigue. When there are less keys, your hand does not need to move/turn to reach, but you'll need 1-2 extra layers and modifier keys (most users put them on thumbs pad). This will take some time to learn, and it's not clear how to organize them.

So this is a fundamental problem: many easy to use keys vs fewer keys, less reach distance but harder to learn.

I've recently emailed the ZSA team about my struggles with text editing, and they suggested me examples how to overcome this with an extra layer specifically for this. [2]

Count me in with you - I'd definitely say "yes" to less sleep. But, if it were a general invention, I don't think it would work as well as you say. Beyond the usual economics issue[0], for me the value of not sleeping is entirely conditioned on everyone else sleeping.

It's not that I don't like to sleep. It's that I also like me-time, autonomy, lack of other people's demands or expectations, and the only time to get that is when most people are sleeping, so the house is quiet and I can be sure no one will randomly want something from me[2]. Relaxation, unwinding, deep thinking, self-actualization are all competing with sleep for that limited amount of time. Everyone else not sleeping would cut into that for me.
