Isn't that mostly applicable to highway speeds? Does tire noise have much of an effect at city speeds?

Road lanes are like CPU cores. And like CPUs, adding more cores does not linearly scale up traffic capacity. In the case of CPUs, there's sync and communication overhead; for highways, there's more turbulence and slowdown generate

The Aeropress is great, but makes too little coffee. One day I'll have to try the XL version.

Clojure's stability means code will last awhile without breaking, but the ecosystem is shrinking. Less hype also means fewer jobs, fewer new libs, etc. It doesn't help that the last few releases have been pretty uninspiring.

I like this idea, and I used fish for years. But, it also increases the mental workload a bit. For one, you now use two similar-but-not-quite tools, and have to keep them straight to make sure you always use the right syntax. What really di

You know all those things would happen without Musk, right? A funny thing about SpaceX: I used to work around the space coast in Florida, and the scuttlebutt there was how often the employees had to work around Musk. Apparently he would bre

> allowing them to use free software isn't one of them I never said corps shouldn't be allowed to use free software. But I do think corps should not be allowed to be economic free riders of any software.

That's not what I'm getting at. Amazon hosting Grafana means it's not only "permissive licences are better for competitors". Copyleft licenses don't present obstacle to competitors that people seem to believe.

Ehhh, Amazon offers a hosted Grafana service, which is AGPL. I'm not so sure that.

I agree that the OSI and FSF are trapped with their most hardcore followers, and can't effectively change, assuming they even wanted to. As for Stallman... his idea of freedom is very narrowly-scoped. In particular, it makes no distinc

Not necessarily. Amazon sells a hosted Grafana service, which is AGPL.

You know Amazon has a hosted Grafana service, right? The AGPL isn't a guaranteed obstacle to hyperscalers sucking up most of the value produced by maintainers.

HFT is limited by time on how much processing it can do. In theory, a super-fast dLLM would enable to incorporate information sources in their decision-making that were previously too high-level. E.g., imagine using wire reports to predict

And the evidence that SpaceX is in the interest of American citizens is...? Neuralink existed for years before Musk. If it weren't him, the researchers would have continued with other investors or govt grants (Trump gutting the NIH rec

Why would Tesla bother to game it, when Musk has Trump on speed dial?

No, because insurance fraud is vastly less likely. It's the same reason I don't assume memory bits flipped by solar radiation are the most likely cause of my bugs. These are not symmetrical claims.

So many alternative explanations unmentioned: 1. Drink/drugs impair your judgment, making you more likely to commit fraud if you were on the fence, or the impulsive sort. 2. Drunk drivers get into multiple accidents, but some are able

Funny, I gave up on nix-darwin recently after a year, and went back to homebrew. Trying to manage nix was more work than I wanted to do.

Don't misunderstand. My views are not driven by random Tiktok videos. I mentioned them to point out that bias questions cannot be relevant in their case. You might think those videos are aberrant, but I see it as just part of the overa

Good thing I used that word "personally" then, which clearly indicates to those who can read that I'm only speaking for myself.

For starters, "few" is a misnomer. The US Jewish population is just shy of Israel's Jewish population (6.3m to 7.2m). Don't insinuate that American Jews are too few in number to get a voice. If you wish to say that Ameri

And opposite all that are Tiktok videos by Israeli soldiers, for which questions of journalistic bias are irrelevant.
