Definitely tend to think that working a lot (not necessarily all in one organization, and for a pretty expansive definition of "work") is the way to have a good life. Even before starting to think about money.

I honestly tend to think that products with "handmade" quality actually have worse quality. I'll usually chose software which is industrially produced and vetted versus some guy's weekend project.

I thought this was going to be a sardonic article about doing programming without LLMs.

In part because the expiry of patents puts a cap on the return on investment private research can get you. Patents last for about 25 years, but important innovations have returns far into the future, hundreds of years. At that rate, you wou

The book "Hinterland" by Phil Neel comes to mind.

And here I was cynically thinking I was going to learn how to "get root" on my friends. Still applies I guess.

This is a belief that I held for years, leading me to avoid all of that stuff, yet increasing juice intake has been very helpful for feeling good and functioning well.

I think you might want to look into supplementing vitamin B1. In my personal experience sugar is not in itself the problem, but an impaired ability to process, or utilize, sugar can be. Many caffeinated beverages contain B1-inactivating tan

More-or-less, I guess. The methods work well for my feeling good and functioning well. e.g., no more migraines, reduced intensity of springtime allergies, more energy, better resistance to stress, etc.

I did use the bad word "confirmation", but I don't think it's harmful to look at scientific dialogue which aligns with what one experiences so as to understand that experience better, from new perspectives, find caveats,

The genome of the rice plant is about 1.5x-2x the size of a human one.

Really enjoy this perspective. Mitochondria must be the true biological individuals, and the cells are just their "houses". Otto Warburg wrote about the bioenergetics of cancer cells as favoring fermentation over respiration.

I don't know if you've read Brain Energy by Chris Palmer MD, but you'd probably really like it as a scientific confirmation of what you have experienced. I used to be ketogenic, but ultimately moved to consuming more simple s

Ray Peat PhD (RIP) and Chris Palmer MD have both emphasized the role of bioenergetics in human functioning, especially brain functioning.

Great idea! Automated quiz generation seems like a nice use case for LLMs.

It changes the scope of the game, if you will. You can now only seriously do humanities work if you are OK with everything you say being copied and dispersed for free. Potentially without any attribution. Software has been going through the

Not really a contentful comment, but I wish I could still comfortably make time to read. Zotero is cool. Hits some of the same requirements here, I think.

Worth noting that a decrease in end-tidal CO2 pressure (i.e., decreased amount of Co2 in an exhalation) is not in itself a statement about the amount of Co2 in tissues. A rudimentary analysis might even say that lower Co2 as measured in exh

Meshtastic has unicast next-hop routing since firmware version 2.6 released, like, a week ago.

"It depends". Out-of-the-box Meshtastic configurations are tailored more for relatively infrequent and short plaintext messages. You can look at nominal data rates here: https://meshtastic.org/docs/overview&#x

I am ethnically Russian, although spent virtually my entire life in the US. My father went to a special grade school for English in Russia when he was younger there. Presumably, there was some state-sponsored idea that its graduates would b

Seems like a hard sell. Technical people probably are good to use github/cloudflare/whatever pages, while nontechnical people are fine with real estate on social media platforms. It would be difficult for you to match the SLA of e

Nice! I was considering setting up telegram/slack/discord for personal push notifications of events in personal IT infrastructure, since Signal is fairly undercooked in this department, but this might be a good solution for me.

Targeting smartphones seems like a highly realistic way to make something like this work. The average westerner has like three of them lying around in desk drawers and they already have a number of useful peripherals attached. It is much le

This is not as ironic as you think if you learn about plant defense chemicals in vegetables. The preference for something with usable sucrose over a pile of carcinogens and anti nutrients in undercooked leafy greens is understandable.
