I'm just starting to use this, I have a VPN that I put in a network namespace along with a local `danted` socks proxy, so it doesn't disturb the rest of the system It's amazing how well it works! I just set a few glob rules o

Jane Street is a market maker. WSB is a gambling forum where people are addicted to chasing huge rewards by taking huge risks. This would be about as interesting as going to a casino and recruting people who have a big win streak at the sl

A CPU can contain hardcoded memory, it can detect the power-on event. That we have an incredibly fancy chain of smaller CPUs booting bigger CPU is more surprising! Things should be initializing themselves. Those are 'just' volta

Thanks! So if I understood you right, whatever coupling does to the fields, it's something doesn't involve virtual Higgs, is that right? Is it fair to say that both virtual Higgs and 'real' Higgs are two types of excitat

Also a countertop swivel chair physicist, my understanding is that Higgs bosons are recruited as virtual particles all the time to bestow other particles their mass. So everything is able to consort with the Higgs field at any time without

I wish I could say empirically. Simply trial the framework and see if you end up making better choices, better predictions about the world. Unfortunately, if rationalism has so far done anything to help people in any sort of measurable empi

I suppose if that were the case, you'd want to look for plausible counterfactual historical trends and compare whether those make a better reasoning framework for big ideas I'm not too convinced by the premise. But if I were, I&#x

The x86 decoders consume a reasonable amount of power, but the trouble is making them wider without affecting that. I have an AMD CPU. Zen CPUs come with a fairly wide backend. But the frontend is what it is (especially early Zen), and with

For HTTP, being pedantically correct is a tradeoff. On the plus side, you prevent weird potentially unexpected behaviors by cleanly rejecting off-spec behavior instead of accepting potentially broken input and seeing what happens. But you a
