While this article feels true, I wish it provided more of its own researched evidence to prove the point. I went through several links and possibly the most relevant ones are "Why are medical journals full of fashionable nonsense?&quot

Throwing in a note of appreciation here. Had friends over to dinner last night at our place and at close to midnight a fun debate broke out about puzzles like wordle, and quordle and the like. I shared this URL with my friends and said “no

I mean for sure. I’m not going to make any predictions about the future when the field is so young. It’s only related to the current generation. Honestly though, art isn’t the field to look at for seeing when the jump is coming. It’s in AI

Artists have for the longest time used our brains ability to upscale. Many paintings, even ones that seem super detailed like those by James Gurney in his Dinotopia series, will have blobs in the background. Our brain will recognize based o

Yeesht. I had never tried this out with AWS so I had just completely made assumptions about their stopped instance pricing. Thanks for the correction. At the same time, the pricing is rough. Instances with similar configs cost anywhere betw

Because you have to pay for stopped instances. That’s why I snapshot and restore. It’s the same with all VPS providers (at least the reliable ones I know)

Tangential to the topic: I look forward to the day that fast snapshotting and snapshot restoring becomes a thing for all VPS providers like hetzner, digital ocean, and vultr (and all the others). Especially if a machine is snapshotted, rest

For anyone looking to try this out, you can use the careers page of meta ( https://www.metacareers.com ) and get the Meta company description and job roles from it. It's fully worth it I guarantee you. I may have imagined a q

I agree with the idea that solutions can lie in more than just negotiations. But I will also say that I’m at the point in my life[1] where I believe the vast majority of solutions do lie almost purely in some form of negotiation. Take your

While this example feels pretty obvious, I think in practice, these conversations conflict with the third caveat mentioned: "Your team is always working on the next most important thing (as prioritised by the business)" When the b

Didn’t have time to read other comments, but based on anecdotal experience I’d say the interpersonal connections have migrated into the private corners of chat via WhatsApp, Meta apps’ chat, or snap (highly dependent on age and location). I

Been playing since day 9 I think (someone shared it on Twitter). Thanks for making this. Wife and I have added it our list of puzzle a day games.

This is a brilliant idea. Feel like it should work since this is already done for YouTube. The same mechanism is used to A/B test thumbnails and automatically choose one to be the winning candidate. Congrats on making this.

If you know basic vim movements (j/k for down/up kind of basic stuff), you can pipe the output into less to read it in a more convenient way. Nothing major, just found it nicer to not have to scroll back up when the article loads

If you are truly interested in sustainable methodologies, I think one area that requires acceptance is that the volume one consumes needs to be second to the volume one can take meaningful notes on. There is no sustainable notes strategy t

I think the reason to be interested in this is because it’s deno specific. I’m not up to date with the deno landscape but I believe this is pretty novel for deno.

In some ways I think this “meta” conversation style is part of the early stage of nearly every social network. Especially the ones that are public messaging by default (as opposed to something like FB or IG which was in theory at least, fri

Quick thoughts I’ve had for years on this article and about the book Getting Things Done by David Allen. Not trying to put this article down btw, since this was the article that introduced me to gtd in the first place. That said, if you do

Sorry. I saw this a little late. Hope this reaches you. I just make use of normal files and backlinks. No fancy whizzbangs except for a script to run the tickler for me. I need to convert this into an Obsidian plugin at some point. The fold

It's easy to trade on crypto platforms with stable coins. A lot of people will typically buy tether and then use tether to buy other coins using the exchange of their choice. It works the other way around too when you want to store you

It’s not. Increase the duration to 20,000 and you see a classic gaming bug of the momentum going haywire eventually. Unsure if it’s anything to do with the environment or the coding. On mobile so can’t really analyze it.

Couple of questions I can’t find answers to: 1) What companies are the first batch of 11? Or put another way, will we learn who is in each batch at some “graduation” point? Whether the founders grow or not, I would love to see the program

Pinterest is one of the most recommended tools when it comes to building collections for most things art related. I’ve taken a few courses on concept art/concept development and Pinterest has been in 90% of it. It’s used to collect ref

That is a valid and excellent point. Nuance is often discarded in favour of stirring trouble and it is very frustrating.
