Theorycrafting models is one of the most raw genuine sparks people have. Most people I think have some unmessianic tendencies that keep them from verging into belief that theirs is the hardset model of it all. > GNS theory is an inform

Building a good case where that sites should only have so so a hand in picking security/privacy levels for folks. These should be user tailorable with our agents or via preferences we can expose to sites. For now I'd often opt to

The actual quibbles here seem pretty marginal. If wasm really ends up being much faster 8 could care more about performance, but my heavens JS has been quite fast for a decade & has been ever improving. The standard library is growable.

Trying to figure out how to train these ideas, how to get training data, sounds like a nightmare.

PYREX all caps should be borosilicate. Indeed harder to get now. Submission from 3d ago on the this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36206565

Not a huge deal, but heads up from 3d ago that pyrex is now often tempered soda-lime glass & not borosilicate & is somewhat succeptible to thermal shock breakage. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36206565 PYREX

Tl:dr, turns out in most markets Pyrex switched off borosilicate glass, which is toxic & expensive to dispose of. And now uses tempered soda-lime glass, which is more succeptible to thermal shock breakage but still pretty ok. PYREX all

> Polymeric particles (n = 33) and fibres (n = 4) were observed in 13 of 20 tissue samples. All polymeric particles were smaller than 5.5 µm in size, and fibres ranged from 8.12 to 16.8 µm. Definitely very captueable by n95 or the madc

$23.6B. US chips act was $280B. I really hope somehow new companies & things can spawn from these efforts. It's not just making fabs we need. We need a silicon foundry shift again, where students & startups do fabless chipmakin

Every state making up rules is going to keep making shit incredibly messy & much harder to operate. What a time we had when nations didn't each claim sovereignty over the global network.

In the US, there's a lot of "unlimited" options with then absolutely brutal throttling after. Comcast is 2x anyone else's speed with 1.5Mbit down. I think maybe there's some new plans that just say "depriorotiz

Pitching for sure, but definitely a fine & good recap of what's happened in the last 30 years & where we are & what seems to be happening. The main thing I think people don't get about wasm is how fast it should be to

Notably upgrades to libuv 1.45 which has io_uring support. Faster file system access! Awhh yeah, it's on. Remarkable what a mild & unintrusive PR adding io_uring was. https://github.com/libuv/libuv/pull&#x

Yes, the US healthcare profiteer-capitalism is fucked. But it's not employers fault. I have no idea what the housing model proposed is. But everywhere else in the US that is mildly popular is ragingly expensive. If I can live in a grea

This is such limiting minded thinking. The whole 2d space is visible in the DOM. Fuck yes of course 3d space should also be a user visible integrated piece of the hypermedia document. Ideally experiences should blend the two! There was the

Very close to the point where SMT/HyperThreading might be enough, where we can just soak the latency & treat it basically like main memory. I would not be shocked to see SMT3 or SMT4 show up, once we see massively many core scale o
