As a counterpoint, I can't imagine a better form of transportation for the area in which I live. It's hilly enough that I really don't want to try and haul my kids (5 and 11, both quite tall) around on a non-motorized bike, b

You could fetch them all and use a quick classifier to detect train/ no train to rank them in order of the likelihood of seeing a train?

This seems a little exaggerated? Macos 12 will run on most Macs from 2015 and later. 8 year old hardware isn't Earth shattering, but it's also not a "hostile" period of time for a non-commercial open source project to su

I believe they mean that the window of time in which it's delicious is narrow. (Because a rack of lamb is fairly thin compared to many meats we roast) To which I would say: meat thermometers are an amazing gift.

I suggest that it might be different: a lot of kagi users - of which I am one - complain about feeling internal pressure to optimize their number of searches, which leads to higher mental cost. The unlimited model is nicely brainless, which

The term was originally used to refer to the hypothetical time when the market cap of ethereum flipped to be higher than that of Bitcoin. (It was a little annoying then too).

It's been studied; drones are somewhat better: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-017-02411-5 E-bike courriers are probably better still but drones are probably faster if you can make them work. A lot depends

It's also a lot more dangerous, both for the patient and the flight crew. It takes a pretty critical need to offset that.

Tangent: This is a mathematically muddled discussion that turns out to be about right anyway. If profits went from $5 per year to 10, they increased by 100%, but that doesn't mean that you have room for a 100% increase in everybody&#x2

Maybe but it's awkward as heck because of the double negative. "Nothing less labile" sounds a lot better.

Because having a decent, workable standard is better than having a mess of incompatible cables. I can't wait until we're done with lightning. In almost all of our cables, it's not the connector that dies anyway, it's whe

It's not necessarily a requirement (see reversible computing), but we're very far from knowing how to do it if indeed it's possible at all. current processors do convert all of the energy they use into heat. To set a transist

Might be a Bosch thing? I have a fairly new one (7 years old now) and it's fantastic about not needing a pre-wash for everything except egg yolk and oatmeal. Those two are evil. The cycle is very long, though. Mostly I don't mind,

In the case of the car: when you accelerate, it turns most of that electric energy into kinetic energy (and turns some of it into heat). As you cruise along at a constant velocity, it's turning most of that electricity into heat: It&#x

This may be an EU duty cycle vs US time per channel thing? In the US you can frequency hop to get higher performance (the limit here is no more than 400ms per 20s per channel), which seems more aggressive than the 1% power sub-band EU rule

Your response and the person you responded to were discussing copilot vs chatgpt. Both may "hallucinate". Copilot is more useful (to the GP and to me) - it's domain specific and well integrated, despite occasionally producing

It's not just about the model, it's about the integration. Copilot is easy to use because it's basically automatic in vscode. So it isn't a 'flow breaker'. That is in some ways its primary benefit: it gives you

I keep checking the progress on dfdx for this reason. It does what I (and, I assume from context, you) want: Provides static checking of tensor shapes. Which is fantastic. Not quite as much inference as I'd like but I love getting comp

Total solar insolation at peak is under about 400 watts per square meter. A one square foot panel at 100% efficiency is never [1] going to beat 40-50W even in the best circumstances, at the equator, and ignoring weather... and nighttime. [1
