Oversimplifying it, but if you look as parallelism as a special case of concurrency [0] then ray is a framework for the former and actors are a model for the latter. Actors are lower level and you could build something like Ray on top of it

These handful of companies have employed legions of people at this point and I think plenty pump their own brand, not unlike colleges with their alumni networks.

I am with you on that. I think they don’t because this trick is classically used by powerful old money families to generate tax free income from dynasty trusts.

I just think that it’s way too fine grain to be realistic and wouldn’t use it personally. I’d save your energy for something you’re more sure of.

> 4WD and no clearance I think I've only really seen this as a Honda Element - otherwise I'm not sure it meaningfully exists. The reality with most AWD cars is that their important guts are hanging lower compared to 4WD trucks

I think the cloud's impact on the hiring market is steeply underrated from what I've seen in the discussions. More business seems (to me, anyway) to be ran by cobbling together these services rather than developing technology in h

Had the pleasure of cutting concrete pipe with a 16" saw at my first job. That thing was scary as hell. Needless to say no one pulled the guard off it though.

Non-genAI/LLM applications of ML are most exciting to me at the moment. Seems like the tooling and techniques are at a good point of proven but with creative prospects not yet explored, especially with generative siphoning off some of

New job, no question. I’d consider putting together a document with the evidence of plagiarized code and piping it to the founder as a favor on your way out depending on how you feel about burning the bridge. And I’d only care about that br

They could give less of a shit about any of that - they want people to pay their private cronies for the data. And another big part of what NOAA does is climate research and they absolutely want to castrate that. Really I don't think y

Sounds like it could be mild dissociation/depersonalization. It's not typically considered a primary effect of psilocybin, but there is a small mention here on classical psychedelics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&

We do kinda take it for granted when old terms are re-adapted to the new technology - for instance "splicing" video clips in something like iMovie. It's rarer to see it the other way around but I'm not sure it's any

I know it’s basically cliche at this point to recommend psychedelics for anything, but one effect I’ve certainly noticed is a strengthened mind’s eye in the comedown and following days. More so with acid and more so for legitimately visual

Also, of course tourism is the first scapegoat. It’s visible, disliked, and inherently not going to stand up for itself. Take it away and people will be forced to confront that it wasn’t the primary problem. Regardless of how effective it i

I would look at a UV index chart for your area and act accordingly - e.g. deliberate sun exposure soon after sunrise and soon before sunset. But you might just be SOL, it sounds like you have skin type I on the Fitzpatrick scale which is no
