There would be a different level of detail if you knew for a fact you were going that direction. Living wills and power of attorney are often fairly generic, as you don't know what situation will arise that will make them necessary. Well, now you would know a specific likely scenario, and you can get specific about each step of the expected progression.

You may even change your financial plans - you would know that you need to get all the life you can out of the next 10 years, and you know you will have above average costs for medical care after those 10 years. I do not envy the work/life balance decisions to be made in such a scenario, but at least you get the opportunity/burden to make them.

Schemesh is intended as an interactive shell and REPL:
it supports line editing, autocompletion, searchable history, aliases, builtins,
a customizable prompt, and automatic loading of `~/.config/schemesh/repl_init.ss`.

Most importantly, it has job control (CTRL+Z, `fg`, `bg` etc.) and recognizes and extends
Unix shell syntax for starting, redirecting and composing jobs.
An example:

find (lisp-expression-returning-some-string) -type f | xargs ls 2>/dev/null >> ls.log &

Scsh has none of the above features. As stated in https://scsh.net/docu/html/man-Z-H-2.html#node_sec_1.4

> Scsh, in the current release, is primarily designed for the writing of shell scripts -- programming. It is not a very comfortable system for interactive command use: the current release lacks job control, command-line editing, a terse, convenient command syntax, and it does not read in an initialisation file analogous to .login or .profile

An LLM though doesn’t truly understand the goal AND it frequently gets into circular loops it can’t get out of when the solution escapes its capability rather than asking for help.

Thinking Basketball is one of my favorite resources for basketball analysis. He recently made a video debunking myths about the modern game [1]. While yes, there’s far more analytics and knowledge in the game, it hasn’t lead to monotony or poor quality. It’s instead resulted in a Cambrian explosion of tactics, counter tactics, and really diverse team strategies. But the commentary and analysis in mainstream basketball hasn’t caught up, so your average viewer is watching a chess match but not even understanding the basic moves. Which leads to frustration and confusion.

Hopefully work like this has the side effect of people making debuggers work again.
In my experience they seldom do these days (except in old-school tech like C, C++, golang). Presumably because the younger folks were told in college that debugging wasn't necessary. I don't mean debuggers just don't run, rather that they're sufficiently broken that they're not worthwhile using. Perhaps an LLM that adds print statements to code and reads the output would be more in keeping with the times?

> It seems extremely trivial to me to run a service that polls the queue for new messages and dispatches the jobs on its own from there

Are you handling retries, timeouts, disconnected clients, logging failures, dealing with perma-failing jobs, priorities, execution metrics, etc.?

You may or may not be interested in those features, but that's why projects like celery exist. It's not "extremely trivial" to replicate them all. If you have only extremely simple tasks that you don't critically depend on, that's fine to use simple solutions instead.

If you want a constructive discussion about things like that, the questions are: what problem are we trying to solve, what features we need today/soon, how long will the implementation take, what is the risk in not changing anything.

> Every time one of his ideas is implemented it turns into a flaming bag of complexity dog shit

How sure are you it's due to the idea itself rather than due to the implementation? If it really is due to the ideas and it repeated, that's a management problem more than that person problem. Maybe start chatting to them?
We just added Clickhouse sink support to SQLFlow:

The point about 3 pointer shots being worth more than 2 pointer shots is generally true. However, in the playoffs, when the going gets tough, usually the jitters set in and the teams hit a lot less 3 pointers than in the regular season. Especially with the season on the line in endgames[1]. Which means: In those cases easy baskets and also mid-range shots (from people who are used to making those) regain their importance. Thus, if you have your playoffs in mind, don't forget to plan for those middies!

That doesn't make sense. The primary use-case (and traffic driver) for Tumblr is a social network for logged-in users, similar to Twitter but with some differences in the feature set.

The public blog network is a minority of traffic. If you've never actually been a Tumblr user, you won't have an understanding of the product at all.
They do, but they probably do anyway since they control everything that is Kindle. If you don't want Amazon to know what you're reading, don't buy a kindle. And the good thing about it is that you do have the page sync. Even with uploaded files.

But yeah I'm looking to move to another ecosystem too. I'm not a big fan of calibre though, it's such a messy application. Very bad UX, so 2010s. I use it when I need it (conversion) but I wouldn't use it as my book library.

I'm looking for a new ereader ecosystem though. Ideally something where I can run the sync server myself. And readers with page turn buttons. I'm not really convinced of Kobo now that they only sell the colour Libra which has really poor contrast (so you always need the backlight). I really regret not buying a Libra 2 when they were still around.
It's supposed to be populated by hackers (in the general sense). But it certainly isn't now — if it ever was.
SCSH is a shell embedded in Scheme, i.e. it's a Scheme library that lets you easily create unix processes in Scheme. Schemesh is Scheme embedded in a shell, i.e. it's a shell that lets you easily call Scheme code.

For example, if you type:

ls

in schemesh you will execute the "ls" command and get a directory listing, whereas in scsh you will get the value of a variable named "ls".

[UPDATE] Also, as cosmos0072 notes in a sibling comment, schemesh has shell-like features like line editing, autocompletion, searchable history, aliases, builtins, etc.

Because there is less extreme (and earlier) braking and less weight shift (drive motors on the rear or all), regenerative braking should lead to less overall tire degradation than comparable friction brakes for even a significantly increased weight.

Though this is contraindicated by Tesla drivers in the extreme Regen mode that induce motion sickness in their passengers and / or are replacing their tires very often (though conflated with rapid acceleration)

Putting CO2 out in the first place is how the global economy got to where it is today. It's better not to put CO2 out in the first place except for when it makes more economic sense. There are tradeoffs involved. To the extent renewables can replace outputting greenhouse gases, then that makes more sense. But where they still can't, then it doesn't make sense. And we likely will still need to remove some of that CO2 in the future.

Doing this kind of thing is so helpful to get perspective on our life. One part is just writing down all the events we can remember. Then we can add to that some kind of schematic based on longer periods of time, both for understanding the phases of life we've already been through and for having an overarching plan for what's (possibly) left. Decades are one way to do it, but I thought it was fun to use custom timespans to map to my own milestones. Once I made my "life calendar", I've tracked it for longer than I did with any prior planning attempts.
Is there an established way to take into account that people rate different types of restaurants on very different scales? "5 stars great burgers and cheap beer" vs "the avocado soufflé on the 6th course was such a letdown, no creativity at all, ruined my evening, 3 stars". I've seen particularly harsh reviews on fine dining restaurants that speak more about the entitlement of the customer than on the quality of the place.
I'm a scientist and engineer and dedicated to love for ALL human beings, unlike the hyprocrites who only love their own ethnicity or religiosity or country or whatever.

Always love. Teach to always love.
Never hate. Teach to never hate.

Once one always loves, one only seeks to reduce misery and increase happiness.

If you're talking about America's GOP, they are inveterate liars who cause untold misery the world over. The New Testament warned us about them in 2 Timothy 3, among other places. The same goes for the most popular forms of the other religions -- corruption is rife not only in politics but religion, too.

This world is a better place when we treat each other as beloved friends, regardless of their form of religion (including none at all), ethnicity, gender identity, and sexual preference.

You should not confuse the teachings with the hypocrisy of the liars.

> I'm befuddled that Automattic is still investing in adding features (e.g. federation) to Tumblr.

The article is saying the opposite though: they are not adding federation directly to Tumblr's own codebase. Instead, federation will come about from some planned future migration of Tumblr onto WordPress.com infrastructure, which already has that feature.
> I would hope that the doctors keep up with the latest developments and would know the options available.

One of the issues is that people often go to the doctor and find out the existing treatment doesn't require a prescription or doesn't exist, so they have no more reason to interact with the doctor and the doctor learning about it only matters if the patient knows to go back to the doctor.

> On the other hand, if it weren’t for marketing, could costs come down?

Probably not, since drugs under patent (which are nearly all of the ones advertised) are sold for the monopoly price until the patent expires.

The biggest problem there is that a drug company can produce something which is 2% better than a non-patented alternative but then patients will choose it over the existing thing even it it costs 100 times more, because it's 2% better and the insurance is paying for it, and the drug companies are great at getting the media to yell at insurance companies that refuse to cover things.

The thing that would really help here is to make copays a percentage of costs, so instead of the insurance paying $10,000 for something 2% better, the patient has a 10% copay and can say "wait, I'm not paying a $1000/year higher copay for this negligible improvement" whereas if it's really worth it then they do pay it and the insurance is still covering 90%.

But then people don't like that, so instead of paying $2000 in premiums and $1000 in copays they end up paying $8000 in premiums because there is nobody saying "no" to things that are overpriced.
Potential for addiction yes but we are looking at it from the lens of a post Purdue media bias. People abuse plenty of drugs that aren't opioids and we aren't say seeing a big push against Xanax for example because that wasn't in any crosshairs of media spectacle. People die on Xanax but it doesn't seem to matter because people write them off as combining with alcohol or that they were addicts. And indeed most drugs of this sort are not particularly harmful if they are used within recommendations. At a certain point a doctor can't control what you chose to do at home with your prescription and that doesn't mean you shouldn't have people who would use it responsibly not receive it even if it means some will abuse it.

Well, my answer to that is that it's been made clear that he's an instrument of the One True Living God Jesus Christ of Nazareth to enact His Will. Disparaging a sinner as somehow unredeemable is a doctrine of demons, that they are unworthy of Christ, which is what you're suggesting. Donald Trump needs Christ as much as anyone else. He does confess Christ which a big step and is in submission to Him which is why he is blessed, as it's impossible for the unrighteous to even do that. For example, Sacred Scripture states the antichrist cannot and will not confess Christ as Our Lord and God. He's working for peace in the world as well, and scripture says blessed are the peacemakers.

In regards to his most egregious sins. The faith is not a sanctuary for saints, it's a hospital for sinners. He has saved countless unborn souls, protects our women and our children from irreversible mutilation by the children of Satan. I pray every night for President Trump at 10:30PM when I do the Liturgy of the Hours with the Hallow app. I invite you to invite the Holy Spirit of Christ to live within you, and into your home and turn your life over to Christ submitting your will to His Will. Scripture says He will give you a new heart. If you haven't already. Christianity is true. The Lord has saved his life twice, and while bullets cannot harm Donald Trump, it's all due to the Lord's love and will, and we need to pray for our President's continued protection as he builds the kingdom of Heaven on Earth.

Most people who are not a child of their father Satan wants to believe and trust in Christ. If anyone here has questions about the evidence that Christ is God and deeply wants to submit themselves to Him, reach out and I will happily send you the evidence that changed my life once I approached it with a truly open mind and heart. Wash the filth from your eyes, purify your thoughts. I see you to live forever, and join us in worship of the Triune God.

Companies probably do several things(at least I would if it were me):

- The pre-training dataset is sanitized culturally/politically and pro-regime material is added.

- Supervised fine tuning dataset provides further enforcement of these biases.

- The output is filtered to prevent hallucinations from resulting in anything offensive to the regime. This could(?) also prevent the reasoning loop from straying into ideologically dangerous territory.

So you have multiple opportunities to bend to the will of the authorities.
