Food quantity and timing, saunas, and caffeine regulation. 1. I find the quantity and timing of food is a big deal. Meals that are too large (especially carb-wise) can really mess with my energy levels, especially if its breakfast. This can

Few things: 1 file != sloppy code. remoteok.io, like nomadslist, is fundamentally much more about marketing and network effects than the software. While that in and of itself is a lesson, sometimes a worthwhile idea is more complicated than

I'm not sure about postgrest, but with postgraphile you can control field exposure and add getters/setters fairly granularly. Regardless, that's no reason to say it's "not a good idea at all." having a schema c

It's like pedagogical fantasy, or like, narrative programming instead of literate programming. In Neal Stephenson's Anathem there are monks that turn mathematical proofs into songs and other art, and it reminds me of that.

I love aphyr's posts so much. Aside from just being super entertaining, they have a significant degree of pedagogical value. If one sets out to fathom these incantations, they will end up studying a large swath of under-appreciated lan

That's just been my experience – I remember having much more pains trying to get AWS IAMs and permissions to work, and I really like that they give you suggestions like "this machine could be smaller" or "this role never

There are other tradeoffs between cloud providers that are important to keep in mind here. In my experience, GCP has been easier to get started with, and has offerings that are by-and-large more comprehensible. One thing I really appreciate

For a functionalist, this and every other "more general AI might need X also" is expected. Like, humans need sleep, pain, anxiety, social mediation, etc to achieve our high level of generality. IMO, our base case should be that a

Hard forking a project to make use of the hard work the maintainers put in to it, then writing a post doing nothing but insulting those maintainer's decisions / preferences, is not a good look. Neither is throwing temper tantrums

I actually prototyped something similar a long time ago. It allowed for authoring sections that could be composed into a number of views. The only difference is that I wanted to capture the different "facets" of an article as well

Hmm, I hadn't fully grokked the facet of the problem domain. I guess you could give users a spoofing mode, that allowed them to fake any ballot / action. Or possibly, if there was a window of time in which they could change their

That would be a problem, but would be a data licensing issue, which is distinct. It's more analogous to "Blurred Lines" infringing on "Got To Give It Up" or w/e.

Hmm, yeah I can see the argument there. I guess it boils down to whether one believes in a transitive property of creativity. I think it applies until the B in "A -creates-> B -creates-> C" is deemed to have certain rights,

Why wouldn't this be the case? In what sane legal system would one not own the work they published just because it was generated in part or full by an AI? If company B lifts company A's AI and starts generating articles with it, t
