Fitness / goal oriented cyclists have objective means to measure progress, for example pedals or cranks which measure your actual power output. This combined with your body weight is a ubiquitous measure of progress. More expensive bik

I’ve had years of joy and fitness cycling with cheap equipment. I’ve also had years of even more joy and fitness and goal achievement with relatively expensive equipment. You weigh out what it’s worth to you for what you get out of it. You

That line of thinking is a bit of a pet peeve of mine, although I think at its root it is purely semantic. If you understand the physics of a ball rolling down a hill, the concept of motion doesn’t become truly odd to believe. The concept i

I’m generally this way too. Life is beautiful in simple solitude. Other people bring with them all manner of drama and complications, which all see completely pointless to me. I like being around people when they aren’t balls of anger, stre

The strongest argument IMO is that the largest polluters are countries like China who will simply do nothing making our economic sacrifices nearly meaningless. Then the relative economic benefit of ignoring climate change will further pump

None of our laws were created under the assumption that computers would do so much of our jobs and effect so much of our lives. From robotic automation to social media to now computer programming. I think it’s really a mistake to ask what t

Seriously I don’t know how people fail to realize they feed off this type of response. It’s like trying to fight a vampire by throwing your blood at them.

I’ve long wanted to implement a browser plug-in which uses Facebook as a data store but posts everything encrypted so it looks like garbage from their perspective. I figured they would rapidly implement tech to detect that sort of thing and

Then you’re teaching them to communicate as if they have empathy without actually using empathy — which seems the precisely wrong lesson to learn.

Seriously, I would pay every penny I have and forgo pay for the rest of my life to stop climate change. But there is no entity on earth I trust to actually follow through with such a promise to actually accomplish that result.

You can pick any N dimensions of personal preferences and tendencies and form a type system off of it. That isn’t useless, you’ll find interesting patterns which tie together those in the same category. It’s clearly limited but it’s not the

Excuse me if I doubt they were purely honest good actors themselves. The article and name of the “watchdog” have so much partisan vitriol baked in it’s impossible for me to assume they were much better than their targets.

There are many scenarios where you’re subject to preemption and CAS is empirically faster and completely viable. This including hardware with over 200 hardware threads of concurrency. In that same realm of hardware, atomic increments can be

I spent several years developing lockfree algorithms and very often CAS loops are the empirically fastest solution. But as often, you can perform as good or better with atomic increments. The devil is in the details of what sort of tasks yo
