"Well no not just because. I really care about the environment but it is getting a bit exhausting. In Holland everyone has to move away from natural gas meaning everyone has to buy hugely expensive heat pumps and insulate their houses more to deal with the lower heat output."

To be fair, they're heavily subsidized and many houses can do this for under 5k. And really, insulating the frankly awful housing stock isn't a bad thing. Disclaimer: I work for a heat pump company.

In city centres you don't need an EV, you need a bike. (I have two little kids and live in a car-focused Dutch town before anyone tells me that's impossible)

Also, as someone who has two little kids who will rub their hands all over glasses and then stick their fingers in their mouths, I'm delighted to see lead paint falling out of use.
To „make a living in this business“, the OR will suffice.
I’d expect people would need a more efficient system, but it’s also the work of years and multiple sets of space based equipment working in parallel.
Yeah kids are not generally using their phones during or between classes to take in even more knowledge on their class subjects…
Last I checked (things could have changed) they do not need approvals for hobbyist use. Official government use and even sponsored research absolutely required approvals. And this is very likely not a hobbyist.
The market isn't some kind of oracle. It's driven by sentiment.

We did _not_ need a study on this.

Schools used to ban mobile devices at the door and at some point gave up, like everything, someone gave up.

Private schools in the UK still have this policy and are still churning out better grades and students regardless of whether they charge admission or not.
Public ones have turned into a nursery ruled by the kids from that X generation of handouts.

Just go back to giving a dam and it will fix at least this thing. But I'll get stick and b$ for students being social online these days now I bet...

Seriously though, for me, it's like Christmas when he releases a new video.
Yeah, raising children in a world such as ours doesn't seem bereft of a number of variables that can skew the results of their upbringing.

Sometimes I wish there was a standardised framework for raising children but they're too unique and individual for something like that to work.

sadly ADA never got the kind of love rust does. people say its hard to write code in but I don't see how its worse than rust. Rust just came at a time where the requirements and stakes for writing high performant and correct software became high enough that prioritizing it into the language design became valued. ADA was a little too early for its time.
Thanks, that's good to know. Where do you learn about these things without reading 500 pages of specifications?
None of that answers the question.

You're correct, I haven't logged into my account since 2018, but I am talking about the period from 2007-2013, now I am assuming since Meta has Facebook & Instagram & Whatsapp the UX would be more or less the same across platforms like stories/reels or some form of infinite looped community engagement.

I think bullying exists everywhere, it ranges from being explicit, like everybody knows what is going on to very implicit bullying which involves people being iced out from social circles slowly but surely, but I agree with your point, I'll do my best to equip my children with tools to navigate such scenarios, since they exist in adulthood as well. Also these experiences are imo essential for character development ie; being sure about who you are and where you come from without being swept up in the beliefs of your peer group.
I'm sorry but my honest response to that is something is failing there, either education or parent but you're both using the child as an excuse.

Having to walk home or wait to get picked up from school to be punished isn't crazy its called consequences which children need to be taught.

On one hand, I somewhat agree; on the other hand, I think LLMs and similar tooling will allow juniors to punch far beyond their weight and learn and do things that they would have never have dreamed of before. As mentioned in another comment, they're the teacher that never gets tired and can answer any question (with the necessary qualifications about correctness, learning the answer but not the reasoning, etc)

It remains to be seen if juniors can obtain the necessary institutional / "real work" experience from that, but given the number of self-taught programmers I know, I wouldn't rule it out.
Compare performance on various Macs here as it gets updated:

OMM, Llama 3.3 70B runs at ~7 text generation tokens per second on Macbook Pro Max 128GB, while generating GPT-4 feeling text with more in depth responses and fewer bullets. Llama 3.3 70B also doesn't fight the system prompt, it leans in.

Consider e.g. LM Studio (0.3.5 or newer) for a Metal (MLX) centered UI, include MLX in your search term when downloading models.

Also, do not scrimp on the storage. At 60GB - 100GB per model, it takes a day of experimentation to use 2.5TB of storage in your model cache. And remember to exclude that path from your TimeMachine backups.
In theory none but in practice the codebase ends up littered with hidden shared state mostly disguised through one or another shared pointer implementation. And this happens because that's what the Rust compiler is pessimistically enforcing upon you by default.

For heavy workloads, this approach doesn't scale particularly very well.
This is a fantastically well written review. John Dupre’s perspective shines through here and this review led me to think about the complexity of biology in a new way, while inspiring me to attempt to write more eloquently.
It’s not about stack versus tree; it’s about the granularity of changes and what causes actions to be pushed to the undo stack (where there’s a pretty fundamental difference between modal and non-modal editors), and the fact that I suppose VS Code just doesn’t let extensions directly manipulate the undo stack in the way required.

Look through https://github.com/VSCodeVim/Vim/issues?q=undo, there’s a lot. VSCodeVim tries to make it behave more like Vim, and because it’s independent of the native undo stack, it’s frequently a miserable experience. Pretty sure I disabled it, when I tried using VS Code for a short while and with Vim mode.
Do you ever get periods of time where you're just not interested in your phone? Periods of time when you don't even feel the compulsion to unlock your phone and scroll, so there's no real willpower required to abstain from it?

That's the state of mind I want to be at. I don't want to have to lock away the phone from myself or unplug my router.

I do get those streaks of no doom scrolling from time to time, perhaps for a few weeks at a time, but, for now, I keep reverting back to my old compulsions. But I will keep working on it :)
They didn't say "reality must be wrong". They said that their initial hypothesis (that significant changes would be observed after 21 days) is probably wrong, so they implicitly proposed a second hypothesis (that significant changes occur after e.g. a few months).

None of this is remotely contemptible.

Pretend you're an immortal alien conducting a study with the hypothesis, "humans are mortal". You observe that your subjects do not die after 21 days. Do you conclude that humans are immortal? (I hope not. It's much better to conclude that humans don't usually die after 21 days in this particular instance of extraterrestrial captivity.)
but you conform to the experimental results.

you can suggest further experimentation to prove another point, but this is different from assuming a priori that effect WILL happen. The issue is not in the idea itself, but how it is phrased.
Just maybe no one should be regarding coming round a blind corner at 60mph as any more sensible than crossing the road without looking ... especially given that the motorist is a lethal danger to others...

Someone realized it's not a good idea to hand a bunch of teens cameras, give them unlimited possibility to bully eachother anonymously and then force them to share a space for 8 hours every day, including changing clothes and showering for gym class. In hindsight it seems obvious.

Wow, 1TB of photos? This is just astonishing to me. What is the use of so many images? As an ex semi-pro photographer, one of the things I realized is that what makes photographs special to people, even family photographs, is the rarity of them.

So I just cannot understand taking and holding on to this many images. I would find just managing the images would take away time and money from my family.

I personally prefer the pet version called little sail (Velella velella). Supercute floating city and harmless to touch (I had put them in my hands). Its predator, the blue sea dragon definitely can sting. It eats blue bottles and store the poison cells as weapon, so if you don't look out, you could get more than you expect.

Those blue dragons and the deep sea Siphonophores (with cool floaters shaped like cut crystal spaceships) are among the most alien things in this planet. I don't even want to imagine how much more poisonous than blue bottles could be those deep sea species in its habitat.

I bet that NASA researchers salivate about the idea of how much similar things could live in Europe's ocean waiting to be discovered.
mob programming is a thing. one person at the keyboard and a huge screen or a projector and everyone else discussing what to do. it works because the display is the focus. people might break into smaller groups to have discussions, but they are still focused on the task and potentially they discuss different aspects or ideas and present results to the group.

in the end it is like every classroom or presentation or group discussion. people are either engaged or they aren't. but breaking into smaller groups is not necessarily a problem in itself if everyone is still focused.

By good fortune I happen to join a multi-national organisation at the birth of our cloud migration strategy and quickly established myself as SME on IaC, pipelines, observability, etc.

Now I'm tech lead in numerous cloud projects, hold workshops to share my knowledge (reduce the bus factor), and even adopted some eager mentees along the way.

It's interesting to me and certainly fulfilling to be laying the foundations of such an epic journey at a multi-billion Euro company.
They did suggest a new experiment, one lasting longer than 21 days to test their hypothesis.

Hypothesis -> proposed experiment -> results -> questions evoked by results -> new hypothesis -> new proposed experiment

MOST importantly, they didn’t fake any results and went where the data took them. This is the kind of science that has been falling out of fashion for the last few decades in favor of researchers who work based on other principles.
Maybe not on or only on their class subjects, but kids also read random things including Wikipedia articles on topics they get curious about.

It's an interesting point you make about the effort involved in making a dish. I'm on a mission to eat, and mostly home cook, food from as many countries as possible. I'm at about 25% of the world's countries now after several years of gradual chipping away.

From that experience I feel that there are some food traditions which will be more durable than others and, as you suggest, this is not just a matter of tourist influence but I think capitalism/market forces are behind most of it.

Factors which I think will work against long term survival include:

-high effort: more families where both parents work for money and where the family unit is very small mean fewer opportunities for elaborate preparation. In my family we think of that type of cooking as a luxury afforded to us because we are wealthy enough to have enough free time from work to do it once in a while, but in the cultures where the food originated it was built into the schedule.

-scarce ingredients: 25% is a lot of the world's countries but I know I will never reach 100%, even if I live to 110 years old. Some countries, especially island nations, have specific local herbs and vegetables that aren't available elsewhere. Over time, the market for cultivating these will decline as it is squeezed out by cash crops for export or non-indiginous crops that grow more reliably or productively. This has happened to some regional foods in my (western) home country and while they are still available, they at risk of disappearing. Another reason for scarcity is overuse e.g. with herring overfishing and surströmming scarcity.

-banned ingredients: as food standards regulations around the world gradually harmonise to allow free trade, some ingredients will be banned. This is an ongoing global war which will carry on for decades, but it already means that some cuisines aren't available in other territories. In the longer term they could be lost from their home countries (bush meat etc.). Again surströmming features in this category and only has a temporary reprieve from the EU.

-unavailable methods: in some cases it's already a stretch to say that I'm cooking the food of a country when I'm improvising with the methods and materials. I don't have a tandoor in my back yard or a wood-fired oven for baking shakh plov; I've not really got the option of digging a hole to ferment some hákarl either. With increasingly urban populations globally, many traditional cooking methods will be unfeasible for most people.

While there are good reasons for some of these influencing factors, like food safety, others are clearly unintended side-effects. There is a strong (non-economic) case for national governments dedicating resources to conserve their cultural heritage by giving their local cuisine some protection from external pressures.
Haha ok it vastly underestimates my age on almost all photos so i love it
Woah super interesting, I didn't know about this. Will def read it! Seems like I was wrong?
This is a prime example of why we are universe goofing around for eternity under disguise of fake seperation using make believe personalities and genes.
I have those periods when I'm busy with other things. If not busy, then the phone is a way to stay busy.

Don't think we can truly idle and sit there and do nothing.

If you do not want to unlock and scroll, find something that keeps you busy and is more entertaining than whatever you have on the phone.

Ag lobbies are one thing (and they're pretty problematic as well, not shying away from extortion and some IMHO are even bordering on terrorism), but rest assured our populations absolutely and vocally do not want chlorinated chickens, nor do we want GMO food.
Congratulations on launching. To provide feedback: I would like to have searched for clothes similar to my existing style. Some of the models had a style that just isn't me.
Poetry -> UV migration is missing: If you already have a project using Poetry, with a large pyproject.toml with many extras and other settings, there currently isn’t a smooth way to port this to UV. Someone can enlighten me if I missed that.
What's depressing about it?
Agree. I propose hypothesis here all the time and people will say "Show me the study that proves what you are saying!".

For instance. It maybe that the distracting quality of the phone is not the only thing providing better sleep and mood, but maybe it is the collective power of the EMF radiation that is disturbing the children's catecholamines.

While the decline is documented, there is much to be said for the more experienced employee. More knowledge about what is important in the domain rather than what might be the current fad.

In a competitive environment, certainly take advantage of your colleagues youth and inexperience.

The most problematic area is some people’s assumptions that you are too old to contribute. This might be misunderstanding or deliberate as they want less objections to their plans (or exploitations).

Being your boss might be an ideal solution.
So, fine-tuning the model to the law of the exact country. Or fine-tuning the model to the problem space of the exact codebase/product. You hire 10 law experts instead of 100. Or you hire 10 programmers instead of 100. Expertise is becoming a commodity I'm afraid.

Of course we can. It's quite enjoyable in the right circumstances.
How do you fontrun orders? You can only take action after you see the order. Am I missing anything?
> I stopped seeing caps in gutters.

Do you think that people who were inclined to discard bottle caps were correctly binning their bottles?

No, they were also throwing down their bottles which were more easily carried away by the rain and wind. Now, both the cap and the bottle are being washed into rivers instead of the caps being left behind. Net improvement: zero.

It's a classic example of survivorship bias. It's like the headline that bottle caps were the third most common litter on beaches - because bottles, sandwiches wrappers and crisp packets had been washed out to sea.
License plates are constantly scanned everywhere in the United States by public and private entities. What is the chilling effect you're referring to?
I have correct answers to all of your questions. How do I know they are correct? Well first of all science: They’re repeatable and produce reliably the same result. Second: Attitude: People go all ways when I spell them out, deny them, be bad-faithed, attack me, or nag me on superficial properties; but one thing they don’t do is provide an argument against it.

It’s maybe usual to see people victimizing themselves in that society and that they’re so systematically wrong that “Take responsibility” is good advice.

However, I’m a white male who dwelled into work and got good results, and literal hate does exist against me.

Of course, some people who were talented early enough did succeed to build a balanced life. I didn’t learned to date early enough, and when 25 years old came, girls went systematically batshit crazy when they saw that I didn’t know how to handle sex, so that I reached 40 without a single positive experience.

It’s possible to recover with women when you get accepted in groups, but I’m a white male and I refuse to apologize for being white, because it’s been harassment all my life, and yes people are cunts, so no I won’t recover.

I went from engineer to manager to director to VP of Eng to advisor. I am now bootstrapping a startup alongside the advisory work.

I love building and coding has always drawn me in. I also love working with people so managing engineers and later whole teams turned out to be fulfilling. Now as an advisor I get to pick projects that have particular aspects of management that I liked and companies need. Along the way I learned that I like being a teacher and enjoy recruiting. Both of these things surprised me.

Also I have more time left over and am getting back to the roots of building things.

Along the way I learned a ton. I had to change my mindset numerous times. It was not easy going and there was a lot of effort and frustration along the way. Building a business involves marketing and selling and those are the things that come hardest to me. However, I even found those parts to be fulfilling in the right ratio with building.

Key thing is realizing that past a certain point more money does not translate in more happiness. If you can define what you might like doing, and can build up some cash reserves, give the new passion a go. It feels dangerous and will require a lot of work, but if it works out you’ll be glad. If it does not work out you can always go back to what you did before.
This is indeed what I thought he was saying, AI needs to dynamically learn, just training on static data sets is no longer enough to advance. So continuous learning is the future, and the best source of data for continuous learning is people themselves. Don't know what form that might take, instrumenting lots of people with sensors? Robots interacting with people? Self driving cars learning from human drivers? (already happening) Ingesting all video from surveillance cameras? Whatever form the input data takes, continuous learning would be an advance in high level AI. There's been work on it over the decades, not sure how that work might relate to recent LLM work.
You make my day. Thank you. This sort of validation makes my inner child really happy. :)
