Use a different part of your body, and offload the ‘write log’ to an external medium/buffer.

Eg if you just constantly type at a computer screen and have recurring moments of waiting for your mind to recall what you are attempting to do next.. well maybe that’s because effective coding involves jumping around a lot, and each new atomic idea involves making a new chain of jumps, while tracking what you just did and what you want to do next and what you still have been putting off. So instead get a piece of paper and try thinking in drawn sketches.

Or if you are having lots of thoughts that bubble and then fizz before you have strung them together well, try just freely speaking into an audio recording while going on a walk, using some app that automatically transcribes it etc so you can revisit it in a new order later.

Or if you have some other sense of thought obstruction, just try to figure out what the “big thing” you are avoiding perceiving your thoughts about are, by dumping anything that comes to mind, or by rearranging the structure of your environment, or noticing your digestive system sensations etc..

If there are too many audio signals, try noise canceling headphones. Or if you feel like your energy reserves are prohibiting your mind from even letting you spend the mental energy to open the door to thoughts you think you might want to think about, then go to bed, etc.

If speech isn’t working for you, then try to use the images that you might ‘see’ for the messages you feel aren’t easily heard, etc. we are somewhat fortunate to be able to sense the cost of communication while also having many means at our disposal to get them across, both to confirm to ourselves, or to be recognized by good faith companions. But the right move for a given situation may look like something not easily verifiable externally, I guess.

The idea is that all peers eventually have the same collection of log entries, with an agreed-upon sort method. Currently that sort method is time stamps.

When it’s time to have identical replicas, a log entry must be appended that says the log is closed. Once all peers have this, the log is now immutable and can be treated as such. An example of this (for a payroll system) is a collection of entries for time clock in and outs, payroll taxes withheld, direct deposits to employees, etc when it’s time to do a payroll. The log is closed and that data can never be altered, but now the data can be relied on by someone else.

Conceptually this is surprisingly similar to the type of internal logs a typical database like PostgreSQL keeps.

> The biggest scare I've gotten is somehow ending up on "colnbase.com" (instead of "coinbase.com").

You might want to install some browser extensions to block content. Then block all content (set to whitelist) and selectively add the sites you know.

If you end up on a new site with some amalgamation of letters that look familiar, the extension will rightfully block it and prompt you whether you want to whitelist or not. Big ole' red flag right there.

Of course it's not foolproof. It is just another layer in the strategy of defense-in-depth.

The main Raycaster class in three.js (which you can access / use via refs from Threlte) isn't tied to the view, but can be used to cast from any point.

It might get computationally expensive to point that raycaster in many directions and intersect with all leaves. I'm not aware of a way to do "bulk" raycasting in three.js yet.

Separately, the lighting / shadows can compute visually shadow and lighting. But I'm not aware of a way to then easily measure out how much of a mesh is in shadow.

I am also interested in tree simulation -- I'm tinkering on a arborist/lumberjack game where you trim / cut down trees :)
... one of my favorite NIN bits of a recent release though was what you got mailed for 'Not The Actual Events' if you chose it-

The album was digital only, which I too was disappointed at. But if you chose to, they mailed something. When you got it, it was this black envelope with a very serious warning that if you opened it, it was going to cause a mess, and they had no liability whatsoever for said mess.

When you opened it, it was some album artwork prints, on cardstock... covered in fine black powder. Just, carbon black powder. With a hefty amount just in the envelope. Similar to laserjet printer toner.

If you handled the stuff, it got all over your hands. Everywhere. You got physically dirty from the album. It truly was a mess.

I thought it was awesome.
That's what the Eytzinger ordering is for. Using 1-based indexing like the article, a single lookup will only hit the following nodes:

1
2 or 3 (let's assume 2)
4 or 5 (let's assume 5)
10 or 11

Remember these are all adjacent. So the nodes near the root stay in cache (regardless of whether a path through them in particular was taken), and the other nodes are in cache if you've recently looked up a similar key.

There won't be any further improvement from using a B-tree, which only scatters the memory further. (if anything, you might consider using a higher-base Eytzinger tree for SIMD reasons, but I've never actually seen anyone do this)

The whole design of AZDO is Enterprise-focused, and for example you have the capability to customise every little thing. It has a plugins API so you can add renderers for custom file formats.

The design is such that even if you have 100 active repositories, it is easy to use.

GitHub has no such vision. The interface is clean and easy to use, but the depth of customisation is nearly nonexistent. And the interface keeps bringing you back to the public area of GitHub.

Would be very disappointing if they killed off AZDO. I don’t think GH is an alternative, at all.
Electric does help with getting cars to run quieter and faster though. With the old diesel engines, they needed more headway because of slower cold start times so there's more frequency and can hit the speed limit faster. Electric engines have high torque and are naturally much quieter.
Also, content creators now have their own ads within their content itself. I feel no need to give Google any money.
Obviously it depends on what you do with it and the terms of your provider and local regulation. Spamming is forbidden if done manually too, you know? So is probably abusing "unlimited" plans with high throughput if you read the fine-print of your contract.

Thats the key. Without the subsidy its more expensive and less efficient than carbon based fuel. In the long run we are worse off, because the subsidy can't last forever.

That makes sense, Erlang/Elixir processes are a much higher-level construct than goroutines, and they trade off performance for fault tolerance and observability.

As an example, with a goroutine you have to be careful to handle all errors, because a panic would take down the whole service. In Elixir a websocket handler can crash anywhere without impacting the application. This comes at a cost, because to make this safe Elixir has to isolate the processes so they don't share memory, so each process has its own individual heap, and data gets copied around more often than in Go.

Nearly everything I've ever asked chatgpt about astrophysics has been critically wrong in some fashion or other. The issue is is that all its training data is polluted by popsci

Eg I just asked chatgpt about the metric expansion of space, and its answer is the common popsci answer, that's incorrect

Next, I asked it what the general equation for general relativistic redshift in an arbitrary spacetime is. It answered

1+z = a(trec) / a(temit)

Where it lists a(t) as the scale factor of the universe. This is not what I asked it, and is the incorrect equation

Next I asked it if the adm formalism is strictly equivalent to general relativity. It said that it is strictly equivalent. This is incorrect, as ADM implies a restriction on the change of the topology of spacetime. A lot of the rest of its explanation of ADM is incorrect

Next I asked it if the ADM formalism is covariant, which it is. ChatGPT says no, because of the foliation of spacetime. I asked it if covariant BSSN is covariant, and it said yes, while it listed reasons why BSSN isn't covariant (which it isn't) that had nothing to do with why it isn't covariant

Then I asked chatgpt if the ADM formalism is more stable the cBSSN formalism. It said that ADM is more stable for highly dynamical systems like binary black hole mergers, which is factually incorrect - it cannot be used for binary black hole mergers. It attributes this to the absence of a clear slicing structure - which is incorrect as they both use the same gauge conditions

I then asked it if the Z4 formalism is generally covariant. It said that it, and adm (which it earlier said was not covariant), are both generally covariant. Now on the plus side its right about z4, but my goodness

Then I asked it if the ADM formalism is hyperbolic. It said no, because its second order in time and space, but if it were first order in time and space, it would be. This is incorrect. ADM is weakly hyperbolic, but strongly hyperbolic systems can be first order in time, and second order in space. It also states:

>This involves introducing auxiliary variables (such as the conjugate momenta of the metric components)

The conjugate momenta is one of the fundamental variables of ADM, so its not an auxiliary variable

--fin--

Literally everything I asked chatgpt here gave a critically wrong answer, from the basic to the complex, and I'm super glossing over the walls of text which are significantly wrong in virtually all the details. Its frustrating because its not saying its not sure, its just confidently incorrect

Information on wikipedia is generally much more accurate, and much more verifiable because it provides links and sources for you to check yourself. Don't use chatgpt for anything

You don’t have to do anything but assume such a bijection does exist, as in my comment: its existence leads to a contradiction in the presence of limits — just like I showed. But without that same limiting to build sets, you can’t construct N from the successor function and you can’t discuss the power set of N.

So we either need to throw out countable limiting to build sets or accept that such set building rules out bijections between reals and naturals.

You think Banach-Taraki is weird (as do most people), but I’d argue a world where you have finite numbers or couldn’t discuss the set of subsets of the naturals is even weirder.

> maybe I should be able to ask him for his list first, no?

There’s no such list indexable by the naturals, as shown by that contradiction. If you allow indexing by the reals, that request is trivial.

It was estimated that "possibly 85 percent of the more than 7,000 BART train cushions damaged since August 1979" was the work of this company, the Examiner reported at the time.

Always follow the money.
"Surprisingly" is an opinion on the part of whoever wrote that, but it's not a surprise to any of the advocates.

Actually, train systems having its own assigned branches of police is common enough that there's a Wikipedia article[1]. Unique part is that the US doesn't have an umbrella national or state agency that such branches would be part of.

This literally doesn’t matter. The energy consumption of a train is trivial compared to displacing cars. If there was a way to trade this savings for higher speed, ridership, or frequency, it would be worth it.

I was talking more from a legal perspective -- where a party's actions or negligence is the direct cause or a significant contributing factor to an accident.

> But folks with ADHD have brains that don't match society's expectations

I live it every day.

> Even their advantages

There are no advantages. I have yet to see something that a person with ADHD can do that a person without ADHD cannot do that can be solely attributed to ADHD and no other factors.

So, I am going to cut straight to the heart of this argument. Do you believe in free will or not? I do not. At least not in a complete sense of the idea; however, I am not sure society can function without some level of belief in free will.

If a person with ADHD kills another person in a vehicular accident, should they be automatically free of punishment because it's not their fault? If not, then that is perhaps even more morbid. It's like saying, "We know it's not your fault, but here is some punishment anyway."

As for evolution, countless variants of countless species on this planet have been lost with the sands of time due to natural selection. Their inability to adapt to the environment around them was not their fault, but as evolution shows us -- too bad. And honestly, that mirrors my experiences with life with ADHD. It sucks, it's not fair, but too bad. The universe owes no one anything.

Yes, this is awful and something the default should've changed years ago instead of continuing this massive collective time waste.
But presumably after 15 years you've configured almost everything you need? At least to the point of matching a static config file?

> Lua is great, but one JSON file is even better.

No way, it's a strict downgrade, you can have a simple lua table exactly matching json things, but then should you decide to do anything dynamic/complicated (which at one point even included formatting as Zed broke your config format on changes), you're stuck with json with no way out

> Installing plugins means updating them, which inevitably breaks things.

No it doesn't, just pin the version you the one that works for you and ignore the future? Or do you need that extra functionality from the updates? But then does Zed without a plugin even have this functionality?

But also Zed does plan to have plugins, so this won't be different?
