@J_G_Bollard@paulg It means his one principle is to make in the moment decisions solely to placate appeasement of his own fragile ego. It doesn’t matter if he said something the week before implying a held belief opposite of whatever he is saying right now. It can be denied or discarded.
@JustDeezGuy Amen, I’ve had to push back on this with people using lazy thinking without benchmarks to front a DB with redis without trying anything else. They swapped a speed problem and gained a new distributed state problem, and all they needed was an index in their DB.
@KeithSakata@DrDominicNg I thought the study would only be meaningful if it repeated MRIs over time of a population of taxi drivers vs control group. As it stands, you could make a case with that study that only taxi drivers with that brain attribute remain in the profession at that age.
@persontradoor@kellabyte Disagree, curriculum needs *traditionalising* the concept of cache lines is decades old. Hardware and OS fundamentals were always there and need doubled down on over endless abstractions, it’s the stuff from 20+ years ago that’s being lost in the noise
@pagedeux@yacineMTB Yeah no shade on him, he’s obviously really competent, but it’s the folks thinking it’s sorcery that are confused. It’s first principles thinking that if you have to manage the memory yourself you gotta fix it to be big enough or auto expand it when you need to. 🤷
@sweatystartup Read some @nntaleb , explains a lot of this. More data also means more noise, risking unnecessary medical intervention which carries its own risk
@fibrusbroadband do you have a status page or something to track incidents in an area? Would really reduce your phone call volume. When I get a call about a remote relative having no internet it would be in everyone’s interest if there was a status page to check the area
@pcardno@ChShersh@gh_0_5_t Ding ding ding. I bet I could find a problem with a similar level of domain knowledge required that the OP wouldn’t be able to do unless exposed to it before, and I bet he wouldn’t like it if I unhelpfully said his failure to do it means he can’t code.
@DrJimFan First time reading of the “bitter lesson” so might be a bit of a silly question, but does moving focus to compute on inference mean we can get better model performance out of small models w consumer GPUs given that they tend to be still great compute resources but memory poor?
@SJAMcBride I’ve stopped speaking first beyond a mumbled hello when answering calls I don’t know. I firmly believe the next generation of scamming will be to get you talking so your voice can be recorded and fine tuned on an AI Model to impersonate.
@jburnsmuse@nntaleb Personally, I don’t try to medicate fever away unless dangerously high. Now and again I make an exception if fever is disrupting my sleep to the point where interfering with the fever response is a trade off worth it to get decent sleep.
@propertypal Thanks. Would much rather "off street" be the only option here and then let the viewer of the listing be the judge as to whether or not it constitutes a driveway.
@propertypal There's probably a better UX for this filter when setting up alerts. I can't rely on every agent being precise enough to choose correctly here. Want to choose both but not sure if it then excludes listings with only one selected.
@Axtiti@fattyfatman@nntaleb I get that Universa only deal with big funds to protect them from black swans, what I don’t get is why there isn’t an S&P500 index fund that holds a fixed percentage fraction of the fund with Universa where ordinary folks can buy the overall fund
@Crashby89@ChrisAlvino He didn’t call people without complications assholes. He called people who reply about their lack of complications just because they had none of their own assholes.
@PhinHarper Wishing you the best in your recovery. Do we know how many people have the holes that never exhibit problems? Is there criteria for medical intervention before problems occur for prevention that balances the risk of the intervention itself?
@TslaftwEli@nntaleb “He's like a math detective, always looking for patterns and trying to make sense of the chaos.”
I would suppose he would argue that chasing hidden patterns among chaos will likely only find you noise you’ve mistaken as a pattern. Instead, benefit from volatility (antifragility)
