Are you asking what if it was possible that a "context window" ceased to exist? In a different architecture than we currently use, I guess that's hypothetically possible. As it is now, you can't fine tune on context. It

Write down a list of tasks you need to do. Just a list. At least 5 or 10 of them should be very short (5 minutes max). If not, break down some of the larger ones into smaller ones. Now when you need to get stuff done, tell yourself you want

Ah, the "fake downtowns" are cropping up everywhere. The sururbanites want walkable spaces, but they want it to be on private land wherein the homeless are banned.

Given that there is a single species of human today and most of us have some percentage of Neanderthal DNA, it seems that we are one species today and we were also one species in the past (since we could and did interbreed)

> It was at 12,081,000 manufacturing jobs in January 2014, and January 2024 is at 12,979,000. That is 7.4% growth since 2014. US population grew by 6.4% during that same period. Hard to see the "huge gain" here.

The financial stability of a passive $40k means you don’t need to worry about getting laid off. You can live a better life, follow your curiosity with low stress, and possibly discover a different thing you’d want to quit your job for.

I was thinking of this differently. Suppose there is a starting point A from which your ship is moving away from. At the same time, a photon is shot out from A. You can take the distance traversed between A and the ship as D1, and the dista

What if you define the "important" reference frame as the speed of light's (in the same direction you are going). Since c is universally constant, it seems like a reasonable privileged reference.
