> If you and I had the same exact input and outputs then why would we have different experiences? Seems very unlikely to me.

On the contrary, I would say it's quite unlikely that two brains with the same input and outputs will ever have the same experiences in deriving the output from the input. But neither of us (nor anyone in the world) know how human brains work, so it is probably not useful debating about this.
You know things are bad when you have negative GDP!
True. We'll probably have to make the poem and picture about Jesus and do it through our new church in New Hampshire.

They already have grants and subsidies that people can apply for.

> I heard in England they don't have proper insulation in most homes.

Almost every house and apartment I've lived in had had some sort of insulation and double/triple glazing fitted on the windows. So I found this quite hard to believe so I looked it up.

https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5a7c19d040f0b...

Official stats from 12 years ago say that ~70% of properties do have cavity wall and loft insulation as of 2013.

> Building to passive house standards can completely transform an energy bill.

They are plenty of regulations on how new houses are built on how energy efficient they are. However we cannot build enough housing for a number of numerous reasons to meet current demand.

Is this Agents.json file automatically generated or is one supposed to invest thousands of lines into it?
I've done it in C++, so Rust is probably capable of it if you add enough layers of rc refcell and whatever else it requires to fit into its restricted worldview.

Does Rust actually have container implementations that do all of the following:

* When walking the container (either iterating or looking up, even through a non-mutable reference), call a user-provided predicate (not just builtin "weak" like many languages have via weakset/weakkeymap/weakvaluemap) to detect if a node should be considered "dead", and if so transparently remove the node. [In my experience this is relatively easy to add when you're implementing the container algorithms yourself, though I've never done it for bulk algorithms yet.]

* When looking up a key (which may have different type or identity), the lookup returns the actual key the container had. [This may be impossible for container implementations that split the key.]
I really liked the show "Humans" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humans_(TV_series)). I feel like we're catching up to that timeline.
I kept a platter pack of almonds by my desk. I had to stop because it was starting to make me feel ill. There's no poison risk AFAIK from store bought almonds which are the sweet (not bitter) variety.
You make children due to other unrelated reasons and afterwards you realise that they fill the 'void', too, besides fulfilling the initial reasons.
> It also just seems more painful (like for the hands).

If you're anything like me, that's the experience of writing with cheap pens and pencils, but finding the right grip for you can make writing a totally different experience. I don't write huge amounts on paper any more these days, so maybe my hand would start cramping up if I wrote voluminously, but I can easily take hours worth of notes without any trouble when using nice pens.
Only for as long as those coins are (presumably by your comment incorrectly) considered part of the market.
> Reading and understanding text is much slower than just listening.

While watching their demo video, I had no trouble reading and interpreting the translated English at the speed the conversations were going on. There's a chance that some speakers would speak much quicker, but I think this software covers the vast majority of use-cases.

Real-time translation is a great start. I'm sure these models can be tweaked over time for better interpretation, especially given that they learn based on context.

There is another aspect to this: the small pauses forced by technology will give people just enough time to think, which is welcome in a business meeting.

Full disclosure: I am not a user or a customer, but this looks like it is something I would one day want to use if the opportunity presents itself.

It's unclear to me too.

I'm not a lawyer, nor is my ham license even in the US, but perhaps "you can decode it by using our software" satisfies the legal requirements?

It's not, to my knowledge, deliberately obscured. That would be a legal no no, I think.

But yes, people have fought over VARA's state here.
I see that you’re confident in css. Maybe you can help me with a simple task that I struggled with recently. (There’s a mountain of these but this one is fresh.)

There’s a flex-row-wrap root with grow-1 containers. Each container is a grid with two columns: fit label, auto control. Visually it’s row of forms of auto-size. Sometimes I want to put a long text into the control column, e.g. as a description of a preceding input. But it participates in size request and makes its grid expand and take all space in a flex row, or more. I want it to request zero space instead, as if it wasn’t there, but take whatever other “controls” received.

In a proper boxing model of a non-web library 15 years ago I’d set the text’s “size request” width to a small value and put all control-column elements into a size group. So they all request the same (max among) width. The predictability of the size request-allocate loop makes it trivial to figure out.

I expect some sort of ad-hoc restriction on either a grid, controls, flex root, whatever. It’s a good chance to disprove me and explode my imagination.
You need to take some physics in high school, and IIRC you do enough that you encounter equations of motion such as f=ma and E=(1/2)mv^2 etc.

We do factor polynomials: we do it in year 10/11 at least in NZ, and our maths education is very poor compared to places like Singapore and Finland, as far as I know.
My most treasured tools when I used to draw were Pentel 0.3 sliding sleeve pencils, model PS523. The sleeve let me put a lot of pressure on a very fine lead without breaking. And of course the lead was wonderful to use, very smooth. B was the softest lead available in that diameter, so it was hard to get a really dark black, hence the need for pressure.

I've bought a number of mechanical pencils since the model was discontinued and have been only disappointed. Few enough have the sliding sleeve, and on the few that do, the sleeve does not move at all smoothly. There may never be another pencil like it.

For ink drawing I have a set of Sakura Pigma Micron pens in different widths, also a lovely tool, and for general writing, Uniball micros are my pen of choice.

I think it's more than coincidence that all these are Japanese.
I had no idea this was real! I saw the video earlier and thought it was just faked for social media.

Normally long-term bonds have higher interest rates than short-term bonds, because investors need to be paid more money to take the risk of locking up their money for longer time period. The exception is that when you expect interest rates to fall in the near future, it makes more sense to hold long-term bonds, because you lock in today's rates for a longer time period, while the investor that picks up 2 year bonds will have to roll them over at whatever they can get in two years. That bids up the price of long-term bonds, which makes the effective interest rate fall. This situation is called an "inverted" yield curve, because it is the opposite of the normal situation.

A "deinverted" yield curve is when you have an inverted yield curve but the difference suddenly goes positive again. That's the situation we're in now, as you can see from the graph. And usually you get into that situation because the scenario investors feared actually happens: short-term interest rates drop, partially as a response from the Fed to inject more money into the economy and stave off the recession, and partially because stocks become very risky in a recession and so investors flee them and go to short-term bonds instead to preserve capital.
The very fact that you're trying to pretend you conflated the words "crypto-coins" with "Bitcoins", as if you did it by accident (which you did not), proves my point better than I ever could have; because the entire [false] premise of scarcity among the Hodlers depends on having no other coins ever become popular.

The White-Collar Recession of 2025: AI and the Great Professional Displacement
It's one of the most popular predictors of the scary scary recession. In short, borrowing money for longer periods of time should cost more than borrowing money for shorter periods of time (even if you normalize both values to percent per year). There is also an explanation that is more mechanistic and related to central bank activities. However, sometimes the opposite is true, and that is the "inversion". Here's a nice explainer from the FT:

BTW, there is something very similar in commodities markets - contango and backwardation. Contango comes from some old British word that's similar to "continuation" and describes the usual situation for non-perishable goods where if you, a buyer, want to delay the delivery of goods then I, the supplier, will charge you a little extra for using my storage space. This little extra is called "continuation fee", or "contango". It shows up in modern commodity markets like the CME on price vs time-of-delivery curves. But sometimes the markets are in backwardation and earlier deliveries are more expensive than late deliveries.

PS. "2s" meaning "the twos", meaning "two-year Treasury bonds"; it's a common abbreviation.
These high-quality music models require pirating many, many terabytes of music. Torrents are the main way to do it, but they likely scraped sites like Bandcamp, Soundcloud and YouTube.

AI music is a weird business model. They hope that there's enough money peddling music slop after paying off the labels (and maybe eventually the independent music platforms) whose music you stole. Meanwhile, not even Spotify can figure out how to be reliably profitable, serving music people want to hear.
Mathematical models are so inflexible and unresponsive to real-world, commonsense facts, that as far as I know the value of what's in my pocket goes up at the grocery store. What we need is a grounded, grassroots approach to banking that eschews the elitism of sums involving numbers that, as far as anyone knows, are no more real than Plato's perfect spheres.
The grey color made them a bit more readable, but it looks like either fonts are broken (the text is horizontally doubling!) or it's some font shadow CSS property poorly chosen.

The fact that you don't see the problem immediately makes me also guess if it's just rendering that way only on mobiles or in my browser*os (Cromite on Android) or maybe a result of some resource (js/CSS/woff) getting blocked by the built in adblocker or something.
Sure, that’s not my point. It’s a mindset thing: driving a sports car or electric SUV but simultaneously soothing yourself that someone surely tested those for environmental impact is just self-delusion. Drive a sports car if that’s your thing, but at least stand by your decision for what it is—an act of hedonism.

My dad has been donating regular blood and then plasma for decades. I used to do it frequently- apparently, I'm "CMV negative", which is good for babies.
It depends on what the broader economy is doing

Is government spending crowding out private investment? (Is the private sector competing with the government for employees?). If so then GDP should increase

Is unemployment high? Then probably it would hurt GDP, but that depends on interest rates. If interest rates are very low, then there's very little cost to having excess employees being paid by the government: indeed presumably you can find something else useful for them to do. If interest rates are high, then the government is paying a heavy rate to subsidize these now-redundant employees. That's stagflation, which is essentially economic hard mode.

For example, what a waste it was during the Great Recession, when interest rates were basically zero, to have people unemployed instead of doing something useful, like maintaining or upgrading infrastructure. Alas!

Python Backend Role

Hi there, I’m looking to join a small startup where I can focus on backend development, implementing new features, and optimizing existing code and workflows. I have experience building scalable systems, working with data processing, and full-text search. If your team is tackling performance bottlenecks, database optimization, or any Python-related challenges, I’d love to help.

I work within EU / USA timezones.

While I specialize in Python, I can adapt to other programming languages, though it may take some time to get familiar with your existing codebase and workflow compared to Python rn.
Your question seems to presuppose quick, cheap, and reliable transportation between our planet(s) and theirs. (And that being wiped out by each other's microorganisms is not a concern.)

Vs. if we've technically "encountered" them, but it takes (say) 100 years and $1B per person to travel in between? Only the most fanatical - who probably can't afford the time, nor ticket price - might support any policy except peaceful coexistence.

A fruitful avenue may be in quantum simulation, i.e. simulating a quantum system and computing its properties. This is why the other commentor mentioned biochemistry and material science, since these are two domains where quantum effects are important to understanding.

To give two concrete examples:

In biochemistry, we could hope to understand how bacteria are able to do nitrogen fixation, possibly leading to a more energy efficient and less GHG-emitting alternative to the Haber process.

In material science, we could hope to better understand the mechanism for current high-temperature superconductivity, possibly leading to the development of superconductive materials at even higher temperatures, lower pressures, and with more convenient other properties (such as toughness, ductility).

This article seems to try to ride the fears of AI and "bots are taking our jobs" but really this looks like plain old badly written software.

Large machines operating near people should always have failsafes. Having handlers who are expected to drag the bot around IMO isn't enough.

The 360 could also play original Xbox games without much exception, but it was noticeably slower than the original. Halo 2 on 360 has a shorter render distance.

Learning Kali Linux: Security Testing, Penetration Testing and Ethical Hacking
Way more stuff should be modular, but our existing popular modular standards are kind of outdated, and people think it is against Engineering Law(XKCD § 927) to make any new ones.

Everyone seems to have a "Made to fit" mentality where they want solutions to feel like mathematical equations derived from the task, with no arbitrary decisions made by an engineer.

I wonder how many things could benefit from some kind of standardization, if we had a culture of looking for and creating standards?

Would things get unpleasant and unnerving if we made consumer electronics to standard sizes, or would we get all kinds of really cool creative racks to put stuff in?
While i agree somewhat and i have the exact same sensation about many things in my life (which has led me to adopt a relentless learning attitude for many things), I'll say that some random online conversations are worth it. These talks help me stay up to date on current events, they help me understand the way others around me are thinking about the world, and occasionally they give me deep insights that i may have neve come upon myself. A movie might finally click for you why someone is upset, helping you improve your personal relationships. I'm in a physics PhD right now and there are people who obviously have done nothing but study their entire lives. But they cannot participate in political discussions or really even small talk. And they seem to be having outsized difficulties with things i consider essential like, talking with women in a way that you might one day start a family and have kids, engender trust and friendship in a wide selection so that job networks and political clout might allow you to materially improve circumstances for yourself and those you love.

There is something to be said about solitary (socially and intellectually) activities being bad, but i would not be anywhere near the whole person i am without my online experiences.
