There’s already a nytimes piece, so, absolutely they are

Valid position from the Void side AND valid crashout. I’m impressed. A distro absolutely can use policy to enforce a vision to be AI-free on the contributions, and a maintainer can quit if they don’t agree with the distro vision

Show us the wall wart side where it says the voltage that it charges at, it’s likely you had something there that acted as a conductor and normally there’s not really a risk of shorting. If you want to try again, Clean as much charring away as you can, since it might be a better conductor than the mug material that gap distance was designed for. I would scrape away all the black, use an exacto or razor blade to cut a little more, then fill it with a little bit of 5 minute epoxy or superglue or something.

This is all assuming the voltage and amperage across that gap isn’t all that high. Do you think it’s likely a drop of water or something got in there as you went to charge it?

I’ve had a weird taste from using Nigari as well, gypsum is more neutral flavored and fairly easy to get your hands on.

Very cool! Did you try doing the thing with amylase enzyme to dissolve the starch that she’s been doing lately? I wanna get some to try out. I gotta get better at making normal (easy) soy tofu before I try all these hard delicate ones

If you try native edibles and stuff she hasn’t, you should documentgit and share some pictures of how much starch in the milk and how much water it absorbed and such.

But most heat we reject isn’t rejected radiatively, so you need a sweaty heater pack for a better test. You’re right that the clothes will also affect how well the person underneath removes heat, a confounding variable, but pigment alone might be a small part compared to weave and fiber choices

The OS is probably optimizing it away, there might be a setting under battery management or app deep sleep that stops the OS from killing it, but it’s gonna use a bunch more battery, too. I think this is a simple enough thing that a little esp could do it instead of a whole phone app

I don’t think so. Vegetable oils are mostly polyunsaturated fats, even solid spread products that have more palm oil and other saturated fats don’t usually have any trans fats.

Vegetable oil is trans fat?

Keep at it. Did you know most gambling addicts day traders quit right before their big jackpot trade? If you quit, all that sunk cost will have been for nothing.

Real talk. How much money have you made in the past 2 months, and how many hours of the day has working been on your mind. One of the benefits of a normal job is that at 5pm, you can stop thinking about it. If you include all the time you spend worrying, are you ahead of someone working for tips as a bartender? Don’t compare how someone presents themselves externally to how you feel inside, that’s unfair, but do look at your actual hourly rate, and think if working at starbucks might be a less stressful way to make almost as much money.

Didn’t realize the word salsa is still so triggering for some racists. SMH.

Definitely. It might require significantly more input to gain the same certainty, but all it’s doing is reweighting the possible next tokens before choosing, and code output is still just token output. The rigid syntaxes probably means that the next token probabilities are much more sharply divided (maybe a random sentence the top 1 choice is just 40%, top 3 are 80%, but for a line of code, the top 1 choice might be 90% probability and top 3 hit 99%)

I get about 1 every other day, on my main Gmail that I’ve used for 15+ years, multiple breaches. What you’re experiencing is not what I’m experiencing, but who can say what the average experience is. I get so few false spam flags that I barely even check anymore.

Avi Arad, is a man, who produces a movie. A movie about a video game a “vg movie”. I deciphered that far and then Google got me all the way to the Legend of Zelda movie that’s coming soon

Easy, which one has the highest interest rate. If you pay off your hdd now, do you save on loan interest? Then that 1000 is worth more because it’s 1000+ the Interest you now won’t have to pay. Same for savings. My savings rate is ~3.6% APY, so 1000 after a year is 1036, not much extra, but that’s a meal or two.

Or Yolo it into the stock market, and potentially make 20% ($200) on it by next year.

It depends what you think the future holds.

Boring answer is: can you put it in a Roth IRA or other post-tax advantaged account? That’s for if you think the world will be around when you retire.

If you think the price of ram is gonna double again, buy a 64 GB kit of DDR5 now and sell it on Craigslist next year

Or if you believe that memories now are worth more than memories in the future, just spend it on things that make you happy. This is free money, Noone can force you to be responsible

That’s a lot of misplaced trust you’re putting into graduate school admins.

Your keyboard probably still works if you unplug it and wash it (including some soaking to get whatever Pepsi residue inside the switches out), but it’ll take a few days to dry back out.

But for new keyboards, I just echo that you want hot swappable switches, desoldering switches sucks so hard. My keyboard is 12+ years old, so it probably isn’t sold anymore

Whenever I see a article about ‘cups’ of coffee, I assume it’s just an observation study thing where large groups of people get surveys on their habits and their regular checkups are more thorough and available to the researchers. So the researchers can only tease out so much info without actually running an experiment with controls, like how big a cup is.

That’s probably exactly what they did, deployed a sbc + some off the shelf model and increased the price 300x by making a black plastic shell.

This is probably why he teaches Calvin very true facts about how the world works
