Unfortunately that doesn’t work anymore either, unless you only go browse those subreddits. It’s fully gone the Facebook way, where 90% of your home feed is then “Suggested” or “Promoted” posts from elsewhere.

What I can’t imagine is your comment to be in good faith. The quote is from the Mormon girl, specifically referring to the “Mormon church ” as opposed to your “[Mormons]”, in the context of all informed officials of said church deliberatel

Tragic really how smart people know perfectly well that you shouldn’t exercise if you don’t want to accidentally turn into a grotesque muscle freak, but rarely use the same caution in brain exercise.

With larger data it really depends on the algorithm. If you must iterate over more than a few GB at a time, GPU memory capacity and bus speeds become prohibitive, while a dead-simple implementation on a single CPU with 100+ cores and TBs of

I’ve changed half a dozen MacBook batteries with Anker over the years, and all worked flawlessly. One I thought was swollen and they promptly moved to send a replacement, but turned out it was my case that was warped.

Nice story, though daytrader orders are very unlikely to be matched with such algorithms in practice. The majority get filled internally by the retail provider, or by order flow aggregators they route to before the orders make it out to an

So sorry to hear that. Did you experience any warning signs before, like mild chest pains, palpitations, or shortness of breath, that day or in the weeks prior? Also, were you pushing yourself on that day compared to other days of your week

FH does not seem all that well understood. It runs in my spouse's family, multiple clinical/genetic diagnoses, but no history of cardiovascular disease. Doctors haven't been convinced whether intervening with statins is neces

I don't get either of you, at all. I greatly enjoy both. I am not a serious runner, just ~20mi/week for health, but being outside, getting into that zone, the mental space for work/etc. as you mention (though math gets diffic

How is that safe to say? There are plenty of 23-year-old alcoholics, having lost control over their alcohol consumption, in full-blown physical and/or psychological addiction. You don't have to age into it, or take a test, or carr

If you don't know what you're looking for, it works well. If you know exactly what you want, specific keywords etc., good luck because it's gone from the mildly condescending "Did you mean..." corrections to "Y

Yes, thank you, this is very important. Whenever someone says they might be asking a stupid question, I make sure to interrupt and remind that there are no stupid questions, only stupid people asking questions.

If you want it to just work and work well, the answer is Prusa Mini+ (with the optional filament sensor) or the larger Prusa i3 MK3S+. Anything cheaper and you're looking at your new hobby to be fixing and tinkering with your 3D printe

I wrote a simple chess AI for fun before I had really played much chess beyond knowing the rules, and the AI pulled it on me in one of the earlier test runs. I remember feeling stupid and proud at the same time.

Right, it rings too much like "You can't teach Chinese." It's more likely a combination of it being really difficult past childhood to begin with, and also that we haven't figured out how to teach it yet. From perso

Definitely useful for IFR procedures and such, but so much of basic skill is VFR, looking outside. Last I tried a sim on screens, it was like watching a movie through a keyhole. I guess VR goggles are finally an option now, but even then, y
