I concur. Corporate LANs are to the internet as VMs are to servers. Trunking, VLANs, and NAT have so completely decoupled these networks from underlying infrastructure that the transport protocol itself is little more than an implementation

Precisely. To put it more concretely: it is no small feat to grasp the abstract distinction between known-knowns, known-unknowns, unknown-knowns, and unknown-unknowns. They do not know what they do not know.

Expanding on this, human failures and machine failures are qualitatively different in ways that make our systems generally less resilient against the machine variety, even when dealing with a theoretically near-perfect implementation. Consi

The funny thing actually is that repeating yourself is a really important communication skill. The model seems to have internalized that, but isn't yet quite at the level where it properly understands why / when to repeat. It&

In theory? Nothing. In practice? A few things coalesce to make the situation more complicated: 1. Sex is a fundamentally asymmetrical power dynamic. For a conventional porn actress, it's frequently something that's done to you.

Funny thing that you mention exploitation. From a high-level perspective, there's a lot of parallels in the discourse surrounding exploitation of women in pornography and exploitation of artists in generative AI. Mind you, I said that

Not surprising when you consider that the impaired executive function associated with ADHD (and mitigated by medication) is known to frequently manifest in the form of weakened self-inhibition. Anecdotally speaking, whenever I personally go

A fellow tea drinker! It is perhaps the one dietary habit that I've never regretted taking on. All things in moderation, of course... but tea is truly something special. It's funny that you mention helmets, actually. For years whe

My mistake. I honestly thought we were one of the very last places to implement this change -- I know the viewpoint is still overly America-centric... just not in the usual way lol

I'm with you when it comes to advocating against added sugars and spreading the word about how surprisingly resilient teeth are when given a good environment... but I do think you've hurt your own argument by overstating the case.

To be clear: drinking water sources often contain flouride and swallowing water is generally not optional. The source can be natural or artificial, but the outcome will be the same if you get an unusually excessive amount during development

It's not about the money, man. At a price like $800 you could hire out a personal trainer for 3 months of twice weekly sessions. No way some wrist gadget is going to do the average computer weenie more good than receiving regularly sch

Well... go ahead and try installing JSR on your local machine. You can't, because JSR is a website. Let's do the inverse and try installing a package from pnpm.io! You can't, because the only thing available for download on t

My understanding is that in many (but not all) cases they're gramatically interchangeable, but imply different levels of directness. Something like the difference between "I see you" (direct) and "I can see you" (in

I couldn't agree more regarding college education. Speaking as a member of the highschool graduating class of 2015, the pressure on every single child to go directly into college was insane. Even the mere act of telling an adult that y

So are you saying that now was not the time for a major release? Or are you saying that the major release had too many breaking changes?

by chaorace 2y ago
Err... isn't the whole point of a big number release to introduce big, breaking changes? All major projects have breaking changes... but only the nice ones do us the courtesy of saving breaking changes for major release milestones

Kind of the same deal as rent control in a lot of ways, right? What you get is a short-term suppression of market rates that slowly get internalized by the supply-side until prices more/less return to the original equilibrium

Life expectancy is such a consistently deceptive measurement that I often wonder why it's not been replaced. Surely there must be more useful ways of quantifying lifespans, something like a "median age of currently living people&q
