Magnesium deficiency causes muscle spasms and cramps. That's a fact.

If you're experiencing muscle cramps due to low magnesium then adding a supplement will almost certainly fix the problem.

If you're experiencing muscle cramps for another reason, it won't work, probably.

But supplements are cheap and low risk, so it's a good thing to try first.

A more accurate statement would be "there is no scientific proof that Mg works against cramps [absent a Mg deficiency]."
When I bought my land the #1 driver of cost was either covenants (basically irreversible burden written by now dead boomers in the 80s who were furious someone would build anything but a mansion next to their mobile home pig farm) or zoning. I knew I needed to build as small as possible to keep prices down, so I had to find a needle in a haystack of someplace without onerous covenants or zoning but with some way to establish or create utilities. Everyone was wanting 1000+ sq ft houses on their vacant desert shithole land.

Just water and electric can be a nightmare. I lucked out buying an unproven already drilled old well that was grandfathered in, but if not you have to deal with hoping you'll be allowed to drill or access water and costly regulation for that. Same story with electric. I finally got it, after paying the coop to run new poles down the road, but only after a long fight with another company that kept asking for endless paperwork and expensive surveys that they later admitted weren't even needed. And then there is septic. I found a guy who used to be the county inspector to navigate that for me, but without connections you can get yanked around into all sorts of expensive hurdles or overengineering.

And this is all before you even break ground.
Splitting hairs? The original comment implied that studies on transgenic mice were becoming politically verboten, which is unambiguously false.

Only because it somewhat goes against one anti-Trump narrative do we now accuse the commentator of “splitting hairs”/being overfocused on details. Sorry, but details-obsession is part of Hacker News for you. Trump does more than enough idiotic things, I’ve never understood the desire to just make up things about him.
Understood. From my reading of /r/canada I’ve got the impression that you are further along that path. I’ve been quite impressed with the political response to the whole 51st/governor madness as well.

There was also a perverse effect on some games. With a graphics card, your gameplay could be altered and you had to unlearn all the reflexes you built on CPU rendering alone. Moto Racer (1997) was like that. The gameplay with a graphics card was completely different, even trajectories (I assume lag made the cpu accept a little bit more rounding errors).
Tolerably modern Nikon lenses have in-lens AF I believe.
Now that you mentioned it, I looked up the specs for my car it does say the motor is rated at 160kW max. Indeed when the 80kW figure is displayed it refreshes every few seconds or so, so an average is likely.
But GP raises a good point: Are these two things that benefit from any kind of synergy in terms of skills required by the employees working there, target audience etc.?

If not, it generally seems like a better idea to keep the two concerns separate in two different non-profit organizations. (I don't think it would be a problem for one non-profit to donate funds to another, especially if doing so was explicitly stated as its goal when it's incorporated.)

The kind of people who can afford a Tesla in China have a global perspective, generally. It's not North Korea. They read the overseas press, and they know how belligerent Trump has been in an inconsistent and error prone way toward China. They've made up their own minds about him, never mind what the government says.

After the invention of GPS, aviation increased its capabilities due to the advantages GPS provides. Many modern flights depend on those capabilities to be economically viable, and are thus dependent on GPS.

Simply because it’s possible to fly without GPS doesn’t mean it’s commercially viable. Remember, before GPS, direct transatlantic flight weren’t generally possible because there’s no radar or radio coverage out there to help with flight navigation. Also for a long time, plane navigated by flying low and literally following giant arrows on the ground[1]. I doubt anyone is particularly keen to return to that kind of navigation.

There has been a lot of speed ups coming out of that project. It's not being done in one go, though, but spread out over the last several releases. So while individual speedups may not look that significant, remember that it is compound on the previous release's speed up.
An aftermarket coal-roller add-on to a cybertruck would be hilarious. (Also obnoxious, but still hilarious.)

I'm almost certain it's technically do-able. (For added fun, add the sound through some speakers.)
Seems similar, or at least partially overlap, with what I would say is the best reference on the subject, an Introduction to Statistical Learning from Gareth James et al [1].

I wonder it this one might be a bit more accessible, although I guess the R/Python examples are helpful on the latter.

I hope we're going to see a move to more cloud agnostic stacks. I'm currently running Patroni between Hetzner and Netcup, with an Amazon Lightsail VPS as a third etcd member. If Hetzner decides to flag my account, the hot standby on Netcup will take over (or the other way around, as I switch on a weekly basis). Still using Amazon with AWS SES and Route53 but these can be replaced by other parties if need be.

> [...] my two promises by turning Ecosia into a so-called “steward-owned company”. This model imposes two legally binding and irreversible restrictions on us:

I really hope that we'll get a legal precedent for this actually being possible and durable in at least some countries, because that was the promise of OpenAI at some point as well.

(That's not to say I have reason to suspect anything bad of the current or any potential future stewards of Ecosia, but I'll prefer a hard legal guarantee over a promise any time, especially when charitable donations are involved.)

The article talks as if it was different before Musk, Thiel, etc and the Silicon Valley wasn't asserting increasingly dystopian control of the internet for the sake of its shareholders, from limiting what people can do to literally socially-engineering content consumption. The 'non-libertarian' part of SV even collaborated with the earlier administration to 'shape opinion'. Not that SV was different a decade or two ago either - they were still doing everything they are doing today but 20 years ago there wasn't a possibility to exert this much control.
I struggled early in my career with interviews. Granted this was 2008-2010 era so the job market was not great, especially in a not-quite-urban non-coastal city where I was for a junior developer.

But something did change when I stopped treating interviews as "convince them to like me" / "convince them to hire me" and started treating them as "find out if I want to work (in order) 1) at this company, 2) on this project, 3) with/for this person." I'm sure part of it is just experience, knowing more of the technical stuff, sure, but when you're approaching it honestly as determining whether you give a shit about the person sitting across from you or the glorified Excel spreadsheet you'll be working on it is a lot easier.

It's a big part of why I hate leetcode interviews and consider them a huge red flag especially for non-Tier 1 companies. If your 90 minute interview is 80 minutes of me reversing trees and writing maze solvers then letting me ask 2 questions while you check your email and Slack on your other monitor I am not learning anything from the process and am extremely uninterested in working for you.
High Infidelity – Against the steady creep of AI into cinema
Your comment illustrated the problem: Europeans are very content with making excuses for their failures so they can continue not making an effort.

Those Europeans who are not at home with that culture move to America. It's been like this for hundreds of years.
It's not probably.

The hiring rubric gets items added/dropped based on what portions are statistically significant when compared to post-hire performance reviews.

There's a lot of research in the public about "Structured Interviews".
Bigger companies do have question banks. Finding a random question at interview time makes it (1) difficult to compare across candidates; (2) makes the interviewer work too hard since the interviewer hasn't first thought about the question and makes the hints given to candidates less useful.

And Google, being the maker of a search engine, was good at detecting leaks of their questions.

> And trying to make your own board in that moment, was just an incredible self own.

ATI built their own boards too at the time (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radeon_R100_series#/media/File...), so the strategy of wanting to control more of the value chain doesn't sound that misguided to me. Not sure when ATI stopped doing that - was it after they were acquired by AMD in 2006 or before?
There is certainly a lack of intellectual humility.
I would consider this kind of "biohacking" to be the fallacy of complexity-seeking.

If one is looking to be healthy, the effort is much better spent on getting good sleep, healthy well balanced diet, regular exercise, maintain social relationships, manage stress. No one wants to hear this because simplicity is boring, and useless for social-status signaling.

Vitamins and all the other biohacking stuff is nonsense that gets in the way of that, with minimal benefit, and opening oneself to harms (in a rumsfeldian known known, known unknown, and unknown unknown sense).

The better analogy might be, "when the morality police call the restaurant, they divulge which table you sit at every day during lunch". And it's also not clear that it would be noticed: national security letters, gag orders, parallel construction, etc.

It's just another principal-agent problem, and I agree that a fully self-sovereign life, with no dependence on trust or agents, is an unrealizable ideal; and, that a decent solution (while not perfect) is reputation stake and aligned incentives, check and check in Apple's case. I too think Cook is sincere, and I trust them as far as I can throw their products, which is to say, a little. (The Apple Tax is so they don't have to rely on a sketchy big-data business model.)

That said, computing and InfoSec have some unique contours, in a way that trusting a mechanic or a lawyer does not. Those can have catastrophic failure modes as well (crashing from a shoddy repair, getting sued based on bad legal advice), but they aren't systemic to society, and have lower switching costs.

And I ultimately think it's a false choice. When it comes to meatspace security, it's possible to have trusted and accountable public institutions, and allow citizens to have some means for self-sovereignty (2A, locked doors). It would be foolish to rely only on one or the other, either as a society or an individual.

So I'm deeply grateful for the Stallman types, pushing forward the capacity for self-sovereignty. Even if it doesn't currently meet my needs from a risk/benefit tradeoff, I still benefit from the ecosystem, and its BATNA, and I look forward to the day I sever my dependence on Apple's ecosystem, whether or not they betray my trust.
The 'death' of PC computing has been rather exaggerated. Each year hundreds of millions of PCs are still sold, and that's exclusively referring to prepackaged stuff. There's then the increasingly large chunk of people that simply upgrade a frankenputer as necessary. As for gaming Steam has users in the hundreds of millions and continues to regularly grow. And while that is certainly going to encompass most people, I'm sure there are some oddballs out there that game but don't use Steam.

So GPUs sold primarily for ML probably still make up a tiny share of the overall market, but I expect they make up a huge chunk of the market for cards like A100. Gaming hasn't been bleeding edge (in terms of requirements) for a very long time and card prices drop quickly, so there's just no point in spending that sort of money on a card for gaming.
turnsout Thank you very much. Trying to understand complex things has always fascinated me. Indeed it takes a lot of time (rd. 1.600 hours for the complete series of Canon lens chapters) but its people like you who drive me forward.

The greatest number of people benefiting from free trade in this instance have been Chinese. Within America, the beneficiaries seem to have been farmers - China is a major US export market as well as an import market, people keep forgetting these things have two sides.
That's certainly a fair point, but currently even the (non-)possibility of shareholder ownership and for-profit takeovers seems to be on shaky ground with what OpenAI is trying.

I think we should definitely ask for both (i.e. no executives profiting from excessive salaries and no future possibility of any dividends in any form to any owners), but I'd take at least one instead of neither any day.

This gamified payment model is not my cup of tea.

The whole vibe of this site seems like it’s more interested in growing user count and making money rather than helping people.

I also feel like “crowdsourced” is a euphemism for “stolen content.”

Sure, it’s a capitalist world and I’m not against starting a business, but this feels like something supremely lazy, like the author is hoping to make money without any of the effort of starting a real business. Just be a middleman to other people’s work.

It's not really a genre, per se. This sort of comes from Opera, and was generally referred to as Incidental Music. Music written specifically to accompany the action on screen or stage. You don't really see albums or collections, because it doesn't generally make sense without the visual context.

The "well written" remark is relevant.

Many style guides will consider implicit void conversions not well written C.

Naturally we are now on C23, and almost every C developer considers language extensions as being C, so whatever.

Well, if by "corrected" you mean "acknowledged that the public perception of the change was correct", then I agree.

Interesting. Do you have a source on this? I can't seem to find any detailed data on this. Only some suggestions that since they're lipophilic, and are found in higher concentrations in brain tissue, they might accumulate there. I can't find any research analyzing whether they do accumulate in brain tissue and how long they stay there.
Google terribly mishandled this problem. The problem they were trying to solve was never described except in the vaguest of terms. When I got the text and emails saying I had to pick one of three options and once picked, you couldn't change your mind, it didn't contain sufficient information to make an informed choice of the tradeoffs. The $100 store credit took three weeks to be approved -- which mine was just after the $100 discount on the Pixel 8a expired. I could have bought the 8a immediately instead of waiting three weeks.

It was such a sour experience, I'm doing something I never expected to do. I'm going to get an apple 16a and leave the android system after nearly 20 years.
A error correction technique I learned as a young land surveying assistant is to put a gps antenna on a known fixed point location. The delta between the fixed point and the point of measurement is cancelled out to get a more accurate read.

We did this to trial some new (at the time) surveying equipment when the primary equipment was optical. It would save time for really long measurements through the forest and mountainous terrain .
Most shops that offered still photo rentals in my city have gone out of business, and it's a major city. I used to be able to count on renting a big telephoto that I didn't need to own, for a few hundred per weekend, but these days I'd have to take a long drive to get to the one remaining shop.
