Yeah, I wonder if there are parallels to server-less tools of a few years ago.

The cool thing about running and lifting weights is that you see a lot of progress early on. The path to a sub 30 minute 5k is all about getting out the door and consistently running a little more. Pretty much everyone who starts weight lif

The stat is skewed wildly by immigration. The literacy level of native born Americans is higher. The population of foreign born adults is nearly 20% of the total adult population, and as you can imagine many are actively learning English.

I don't see that as a bad thing. Nominally superficial change can a nice way to have a fresh look at something you've stopped noticing. I can be enjoyable simply because its new.

Factually healthcare is more regulated than most industries in the US and the web of regulations has no design and where it does, patient safety is rarely the primary goal.

I agree in general, but a credit score absolutely DOES NOT tell you how profitable someone is to lend to, and in general someone with a very high credit score is a very low margin customer.

Credit scores aren't a score of how valuable you are, they're a score of creditworthiness or how unlikely you are to default on a loan. The largest factors are age of credit and payment history. Utilization is also a factor. Someo

Maybe, the cycle has happened before and maybe come back around again. Dynamic typing is really nice when most of your data looks like bags of strings. Compilers and tools just don’t add a lot when you’re passing around glorified blobs of s

There's limited time and a finite supply of doctors and researchers. They can't study everything that's promising all at once, and good ideas fall through the cracks all of the time.

The opposite approach exposes people to a lot of unnecessary and dangerous medical treatment. The evidence based approach has uncovered that stenting doesn't work[1], yet a lot of do something proponents are still installing them at gr

Sure, but someone needs to fund, organize, and conduct the study. If you're not at a research hospital it's not as easy for a one off case to generate a study.

It’s not shameful, it’s how evidence based medicine works. One case is interesting but not a basis for changing a protocol by itself. Tons of things could have influenced the outcome and you need a proper study to know that.

There are some 530 genes associated with intelligence and they are mostly small contributor. There’s also a large environmental component that is poorly understood. I’m not sure that gene edited super intelligence is in the near future.

I haven't used it extensively, but toyed around with it for Elixir code and I wasn't particularly impressed.

Every time I’ve tried to do that it takes longer than it would take me, and comes up with fairly obtuse solutions. The cursor agent seems incapable of putting code in the appropriate files in a functional language.

I kind of agree. It feels like they're generally a superior form of copying and pasting fro stack overflow where the machine has automated the searching, copying, pasting, and fiddling with variable names. It be just as useful or dange

It seems like LLMs made really big strides for a while but don't seem to be getting better recently, and in some ways recent models feel a bit worse. I'm seeing some good results generating test code, and some really bad results w

That's a shame, I was hoping for a pozole blanco/pho mashup. I feel like that should really work. And carnitas on banh mi would be fantastic. The coffee culture would probably also be excellent.

It’s pretty clear that when governments open markets and relax market controls the population grows in wealth. Certainly, technology drives efficiency and grows the pie I wouldn’t argue otherwise. However the closed economies with price con

The original quote as I’ve said is taken out of context, the chapter is about freedom of contracts and does talk about legally mandated segregation. Friedman just says that further interference in contracts is in his opinion not the remedy.
