There are a lot of use cases for docker, I think this is complaining about a few specific things in more complex applications that probably shouldn't be deployed that way because you're not just exposing port 80, it's a whole

I was going to downvote you because obviously this does happen to people and saying "this doesn't happen to me" is kind of annoying. I think you can understand RSI. We don't all get to enjoy a positive outcome from the s

Cool. Maybe souls are digital but the storage system hasn't been invented yet?

That's very cool! Can you say more about it or is there a project web site? Trying to replicate inventions from the patent filings must be incredibly difficult. They are primarily legal documents and not technical documents, unfortunat

My comment also contains the phrase "super interesting". Now I wonder where that comes from. However, technically to find the frequency in question you could take a white noise generating sound source and connect that to an EQ wit

That's super interesting I'm totally going to try this! I have mild tinnitus. I was in a band. I always wear ear plugs at other people's shows but did not wear ear plugs at band practice or our shows. I guess in hind sight, t

Very good point. But... I'm sure it's profitable for them no matter how expensive the car is to repair. I don't think that's a driver to make the car cheaper to repair. In fact, if they are harder to repair it's pro

Sure, but that's not Tesla's problem, just another hidden cost passed off to the consumer. Car insurance costs are skyrocketing, and people really should call to see how much a new vehicle is going to cost to insure first, but how

I noticed that the app is listed as being ~3Gb in size and the Vicuna 7b model is ~13Gb in size. What did you do to compress it? Same for memory... I think it needs 30Gb? And same for CUDA or GPU support... How does that work, or is it just

For example, Intelius does background checks, reverse phone number lookups etc. One small piece of information can lead to others. As far as unwitting, of course. The wikipedia page says that company has acquired background check companies,

Toyota just has to extend the range of the various plug-in hybrid "Prime" models to 100+ miles on EV, which is totally doable. Right now it's already 25-40 miles. In the US in particular that's going to be a good comprom

Aging well and also being instantly recognizably made in the early 80's are mutually exclusive outcomes. :) That said, check out the synthwave genre for a modern/retro take on all this.

It would be a far better movie if every scene with Jared Leto was deleted. Interesting that the score makes the difference, the score from blade runner 1982 is really unique to me and inseparable from the movie. If I hear a single note from

Police didn't like the "defund the police" movement (which was most active in 2020, so there's your temporal coincidence). The theory is that they are deliberately doing a bad job to make crime worse. Just be bad at your

Big fan of Clojure for sure. But looking at all the cool projects built on WASM, I'm not sure about the bare metal vs VM direction. There are compilers, interpreters, embedded support, interesting sandboxes (RLbox), webGPU. There are u

Interest rates and tax policy have massive impacts on behavior and the overall economy. It's kind of nuts that we do live in a system where these rules change all the time based on the whims of a bunch of politicians, half of whom are

Level of detail is something I think a lot about lately. Interviews go off the rails with candidates who answer in too much detail or not enough. Meetings go off the rails with non-actionable proclamations or tedious line-by-line details. M

Oh, absolutely, I can't listen to a book on tape and code. I mostly listen to death metal or electronic music with no (intelligible) words. I do think programming engages the language portion of the brain, which is why it can be so rew

Yeah, not all people work optimally that way I agree it may not be optimal for everyone, and I might be more social than some. I've just learned a lot working with people who knew more or less than me at the time and some of my more
