Anecdotal evidence: meditating in the evening helps me fall asleep. Don’t know if it’s the breathing part or clearing my mind but it works really well 90% of the time. The trick is that I do it laying down instead of a more conventional med

Serverless has its upsides but it also has downsides. In an ideal, pure, world it’s awesome. The problem is that your lambda function usually needs to use some sort of external resources. (It is pretty useless if you don’t interact with any

That’s great. One nitpick: there’s no such thing as step-parenting. For all intents and purposes this is parenting and you’re nailing it.

The overall approach is to: - download and write a stock raspian image to an sd card - tweak the init script at /usr/share/initramfs-tools/init to create the ramdisk file system and to insert the download path + download

point was that it does not just work on a pi 3 if you put it in a real-life environment. also, net booting is still a thing, but not for the diskless scenario :)

by mirceal 9y ago
it can work on whatever. the biggest advantage is that it's not using the SD card and it's always using the latest image.

this is a bit misleading in that it's not necessarily about netbooting (which per linked article just works). As someone who's played with raspberry pi's on "real" networks I can tell you that netbooting one is not

yeah. defining the problem as hard does not even begin to describe it. I believe that an AI that plays perfectly while seeing everything (i.e. oppponent hand + both libraryies, so no hidden state) would still be an impressive accomplishment

it's probably not the grammar. I am no expert in German, but if I were to take a bet it would have to do on how words are built (compound words) and that some of them are not straightforward. It may seem easy for you, but I am guessing

haha. no. grammar for some of the latin-based languages is ridiculously hard to master. you have trouble with the grammar even as a native speaker. It's not the grammar.

Agree. And you can definitely get some of both. My original badly made point was that you cannot prioritize form over function and get away with it. Now that I think about it I guess the reverse is true (ie you cannot prioritize function ov

I have a problem with the redeeming qualities of a old building. Sure, it's pleasant to look at, it may even improve your mood, but is this why you're there? Example: you need to study in the library and the library is really smal

by mirceal 9y ago
is it? I'm not saying you need one or the other. I'm saying that it's a spectrum and you have to chose what you optimize for. The most functional building is not going to be the most beautiful one and vice-versa.
