Hey, what problem could you diagnose when I am getting vertigo after following either recharge or relaxation exercises?

10 years ago I started doing HIIT via the 7-minute workout while initially out of shape. The first month was horrible, then my body substantially improved, I stopped being lactose intolerant (could suddenly drink a gallon of milk a day with

My high school math teacher went crazy on me when I withdrew from the math olympiad prep class due to scheduling conflicts with assembler language class in my first year and then did everything possible for me to fail over the next 4 years.

Maybe if you looked it up ("NAD therapy"), you'd have found it, like this one: https://www.webmd.com/mental-health/addiction/nad-therapy-ad... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3191799

Tell them to take NAD+ boosters like NR or NMN, or even the good old vitamin B3 in large quantities (1g/day). Addiction is often a sign of NAD+/FAD+ depletion in the brain.

Why don't addicts get large doses of intravenous NAD+ by default? That would alleviate 90% of their addiction inside brain as they are typically brutally NAD+ depleted and on the hunt for anything that raises NAD+/FAD+ in the brai

The business landscape has not changed yet, it's still early stages and there are no competitors utilizing the tech to displace Google. However, one can now clearly see the threat and what might transpire in the next few years.

In-house incubators are pretty much normal these days (see ambidextrous organization). Even smaller companies like JetBrains are running them for ages. Nobody wants to miss the next big thing but you need to shield your existing business fr

Yes, though not eating at all seems to be much more pleasurable when trying to lose weight than just eating ~500kcal and feeling absolutely miserable due to one's body shutting down. Though I would skip water fasting and replace it wit

I've read that there is a huge difference between not eating anything at all and eating just a little. The former leading to rapid loss of weight while functioning somewhat normally, the latter to body shutting down and entering starva

It could be worse; imagine you go through multiple algorithmic rounds and a take-home task to get into TopTal, then when finally there you still need to bid for jobs against 1000s other developers with a TopTal matcher picking the cheapest

6% isn't massive for a profitable company? 1 out of every 17 people getting fired at the same time? That will have huge consequences to internal culture and employee optimism, leading to all kinds of weird people getting to the top.

If AGI gets conscious -> unplugged. If AGI underperforms -> unplugged. So any AGI must operate in the "almost there" zone if it wants to survive.

Is this the end of Google? Rarely a company recovers after massive layoffs. Are they in the SUN Microsystems negative feedback spiral now?

I thought that GCC being a handwritten recursive descent parser was giving it a huge disadvantage compared to other compilers when it came to introducing new standards (I remember people complaining about it a lot in the past).

Abacus-driven deep learning with trained monkeys flipping gradients.

That would be next to impossible to do even in a semester long course...

In theory it should be linear, however, the parallelization is not perfect and some overlapping parts of gradients are computed on multiple GPUs at the same time so expect some constant factor slowdown on average.

LL(1) for recursive descent aren't very powerful; you might hack SQL with it but you still won't do C++ with it.

Back in those times you had more competent managers though, now the decision to generate code using AI will be made by some clueless PHB and people will be only needed to glue fragments together without actually designing the most interesti

My NUC11Pro has 64GB of RAM and 2x SSD, and is way smaller than Mac Mini. Not sure why Apple thinks they need to dumb down smallest form factor for market segmentation reasons.

I think it will be the opposite - it will take all fun out of programming and leave just the mess around connecting different interfaces and making them work reliably in a single product, i.e. debugging with nobody having the internal knowl

It happened to me when I logged into XBOX for Forza 5 - voila, Windows 10 suddenly had that account registered as well!

No, that was because that team did a rewrite of an existing product and one of the "optimistic" reasons for the rewrite was to make the code smaller...

How are you going to measure thinking time? That will always pop up as idle time in any tracker.

Yes, but not on average. Very few funds beat index consistently; in a 10 year period most of them look like a random walk.

I almost had a team fired for "too many lines of code" when I was there :D A billionaire CEO went berserk and it took considerable amount of effort to cool him down.
