Ok so if I'm understanding your comment correctly, this "power plant" is actually reclaiming some of the energy from the desalination process?

Wonderful! Thank you. Looking forward to trying this out. Now can you do Excel next? I'm aware of [calamine]( https://github.com/tafia/calamine ) but that doesn't render as beautifully as doxx. Presumably a lot

How tightly coupled is the codebase to the file system? I would love to use the syncing as a library on my own data not on files.

by snthpy 1y ago
It operates continuously whereas rsync has to be run periodically (I believe, if there is a continuous setup lmk). Also SyncThing is bidirectional whereas rsync is one way (obvs you could also push both ways).

What differentiates the CLI tools at this point and makes you prefer one over the other? opencode and Crush can use any model, so apart from a nicer visual experience, are there any aspects that actually make you more productive in one vs t

Been loving all these Amiga posts lately. I don't even do anything. It just triggers some sort of happy childhood nostalgia, like smelling your grandmother's cooking.

Thanks. That explains some things. OT question about Google Workspaces: What's the difference between My Drive, Shared Drives, and "Workspaces"? When would I want to use each in a team setup?

For me the biggest benefit of open weights models is the ability to fine tune and adapt to different tasks.

Same here. I have 4 streaming service subscriptions and it really frustrates me when I can't find classic films that I want to show my kids or just watch myself.

Wow, I had no idea that the bar was that low. That's ridiculous. I think I'll follow your approach from now on.

What about food security and the price of food? I recall seeing that's generally the ultimate catalyst for revolutions, cf French cake and the price of tea for wannabe ex-Brits ;-p I believe this also featured in the Arab spring. When

Yes, I do indeed know Bruce. He won the national Maths and Computer olympiads in my final year of school even though he was 4 grades below me and had just started high school. :-D

I was part of the hosting team at IOI 1997 in Cape Town and had similar conversations with the participants that you described and also learned about Dynamic Programming there. Your description of it as "recursion + storing results whi

That's not quite right. For super high Sharpe ratio strategies with low capacity, sure. But for a single digit SR with high capacity your expected profit will be higher by taking a fee on a larger capital base. If you also add in asymm

On my phone so can't check details right now but does this include enough temporal joins because these are traditionally underrepresented in TPC-H and TPC-DS?

Fascinating. My locality is usually kinda lax but it's something that we have. I would have thought that with the litigious culture in the US and non-competes etc... this would all be watertight. Seems kinda ridiculous that with a non-

Reminds me of Warn A Brother ( https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/513-ahwUxZL.jpg ). Pity that it's not open source and decentralized using something like iroh.computer, especially given the lacking Android su
