The emissions are only a problem initially; it doesn’t matter if enough population perish, the warming will continue by self-reinforcing effects for an era.

Stress -> jaw clenching -> tinnitus.

That’s a good definition: it’s a model of a model. It seems the debate seems to center around whether language models are meta-models (in the category sense) or mere encodings (information theory)?

Yeah, caffeine is not the cause per se - the thing is it has both vasoconstriction and vasodilation effects at different times, so it can mess with blood vessels in the inner ear. It totally makes sense if you get tinnitus when you cut ca

I feel you. Here’s things you can try (in this order): - Cut stimulant use (coffee, energy drinks) and alcohol - Drink plenty of water - Check blood pressure - Talk to a dentist and check if you grind teeth or suffer from jaw stiffness - Su

Nobody relies on atomic transactions to model money transfers in the real world. You can read up on "clearing" and "settlement" processes to get an idea.

No, that definitely happens. There are two kinds of adjustments: an adjustment transaction (pontual), or re-interpreting what happened (systemic). The event sourcing pattern is useful on both situations. Sometimes you need to replay events

Salaried workers sell their time in advance with promises of promotions, bonuses or stock in the future. So what (public) companies do is over hire during growth, then lay off later to transfer the value created by these workers to sharehol

Category theorists seem to enjoy coming up with confusing nomenclature.

It’s because manufacturers keep inventing their own formats instead of using plain DNG, and you can only figure out the difference reverse engineering the file. Even for the same manufacturer and file type, they may change encoding details

I use AI as a pairing buddy who can lookup APIs and algorithms very quickly, or as a very smart text editor that understands refactoring, DRY, etc. but I still decide the architecture and write the tests. Works well for me. Apparently what

The model mentioned in the article (17 Pro Max) is mentioned having $ 1199 launch price.

Isn’t this a matter of the dollar losing value, and the market is already pricing you’ll need more dollars to buy the same assets?

Inflation adjusted, the iPhone 17 price would be equivalent to $799 — almost double the $499 price of the iPhone 1 at launch.

Code review is a good way to ensure 1) the team has context 2) double-check the approach taken 3) keep conceptual integrity high. For that, you should make atomic PRs (not focus on minimal LoC, but rather a coherent patch set for a featur

If you think being an US antagonist is bad, try being an ally. South Korea, Japan, Philippines, are all proxy states and hostages to the US defense budget.

There is a “better” painkiller than both Tylenol and Ibuprofen (Metamizol), but it has been forbidden on the US based on a study attributing strong side-effects to it, despite it being freely available over the counter on multiple countries

> 996 for a business owner or top exec at a big company? It’s the norm. And the risk-reward makes sense to them. It's bad anyway. These people burnout and start making dumb moves to bail out sooner.

“AI” is great for coding in the small, it’s like having a powerful semantic code editor, or pairing with a junior developer who can lookup some info online quickly. The hardest part of the job was never typing or figuring out some API bulls
