I hear this word as the “it is in its nature” version of the word.

Picasso's Pelican

No biggie, just almost woke up a household of sleeping people

Obviously needs downloading eventually :).

It seems like this tool saves on both disk space and RAM, then. Classic trade off: speed vs space.

I’m still slightly confused on what this adds.

Let’s say I wanted to run a full size open weight model. I have a 128GB m3 max laptop.

Does this basically load layers in and out on demand? So I still have to download the full model to disk, but the RAM requirements go way down? The readme calls out that one still needs to connect HuggingFace, which leads me to believe that maybe you don’t even need to download the full model?

Unwanted sound! Not cool.

Got it, that helps me understand.

I am curious how the variety of faith based practices could be handled…I’m super on board with providing a universal spiritual/mental health space regardless of your affiliation. That gets very weird when you start having to account for the variety of schedules and practices.

I am pretty sure I disagree on religious orgs having no more rights than a business. I think that seriously under accounts for the degree of identity that folks get from their religious affiliations and the types of activities businesses and religious groups tend to do.

A business and religious group are pretty fundamentally different…I’d have to reflect a lot longer and harder to come up with a more stable and coherent stance on that. I can definitely think of valid arguments on either side.

Uh, honest question: why would you put atheist on a list of religions?

Like…leave the religion off the dog tag and that communicates enough right? What’s there to recognize?

I’m super not trying to be antagonistic. I’m trying to understand why an atheist would be upset by this.

Most of our ideas are silly puns about the character names ;).

Switched to this knot a few years back for any day when we're walking/hiking a lot. I also tie my children's shoes this way if they're having a struggling day.

If anyone's playing with this you may find that after you tie the loops together they're sitting funny; you basically have to swap the sides the loops sit on!

Along similar lines: many of your favorite authors, musicians, and creators have public email addresses and seem to love getting emails. I’ve started writing notes with my kids to their favorite authors with ideas and always a thank you note.

I’ve gotten replies from authors on NYT best sellers lists, musicians, and more.

People like to be appreciated.

I always wanted superpowers, but I never dreamed it'd be like this.

I did....maybe my powers are growing.

Wasn’t my fault this time! I haven’t started work yet.

Subjective air quality is SO much better than it was in the early nineties though...

I definitely blame my difficulties with respiratory illnesses on living there as a kid...

I'm not sure how true that is...I'm not clear if the modern workplace has ever been the primary source of relationships.

Places of worship, community spaces like libraries/clubs - sure...but I had to develop these skills years before I moved to remote work.

Post College friendships can be hard. Friendships before graduations are almost all completely spontaneous and natural. No one has to _really_ know how to be the initiator. My experience suggests that it doesn’t really get better as you age, either.

My wife and I took on that role after college. Neither of us is particularly outgoing, but we’re not cripplingly shy either.

Meeting new people is about realizing you’re not alone in feeling lonely. When we pick up on positive vibes we just ask for a phone number “can I have your phone number? You seem cool, and I’d love to ___. (Fill in the blank with one of “get a cup of coffee/beer”, “take a walk,” “invite you to a [thing I host].” It’s not significantly different from the dating scene except it’s so much lower stakes. I recommend sticking to same sex or group invites for this reason. Rejections are rare, and almost certainly don’t reflect on you.

Secondly we start things on schedules. Things that happen regularly are super low pressure ways to start friendships: “hey, we cook an elaborate dinner and then hang out and play instruments/sing/watch a movie/hang out at the beach/take a hike once a month/week/whatever, join us!”

This makes it easy to invite anyone without it feeling like a date.

I say all this knowing that none of this is _easy_, but it is a kindness. You’re not alone feeling lonely. With a little bravery you can totally be the person who makes it better for your new group of friends.

Liverpool (near OP who’s in Syracuse) has a fantastic very friendly climbing gym with Auto Belays; easy to go solo.

I feel like that’s a heck of a lot more than zero instructions…

Yeah, I genuinely can't figure out what an AI would do with "no instructions."

You can critique without being sarcastic:

> Use the term, never define the term, classic.

Communicate the same thing in a way you'd do to someone's face:

> This article doesn't define the term "CTE".

Or even more directly, still not rude:

> I wish the article had defined its terms! "CTE" stands for "Common Table Expressions..."

Yep! In my experience it's about 3 miles; people turn around in between 2 and 3. By 3 miles you're guaranteed solo.

Anyone struggle with the large font size? I can only consume about 2 lines, maybe three lines at that size before I struggle with tracking.

The article itself was in fact delightful once I zoomed out a bunch.

Your comment could have been more helpful without the first sentence. SAME content, same correction, less superiority: "CTE is an overloaded term, in this article ......"

This is a valuable comment, don't ruin it with sarcasm and rudeness.

I'm not going to lie, I have a certain mystique among my coworkers.

Brilliant. I love it

I’ll try. Lemme know if you need a day off too…

I swear this is my fault. I can go weeks without doing infra work. Github does fine, I don't see any hiccups, status page is all green.

But the day comes that I need to tweak a deploy flow, or update our testing infra and about halfway through the task I take the whole thing down. It's gotten to the point where when there's an outage I'm the first person people ask what I'm doing...and it's pretty dang consistent....

Yeah…and I don’t burn my time watching videos unless it’s teaching me to fix an appliance, or do small home repairs…videos are for tricky in person stuff, screenshots and text are for apps.

If Little Blue Truck isn’t on your regular list you should add it. We also loved Pond by Jim LaMarche (older audience, but beautifully illustrated and told), the Boynton books are fun to read aloud especially Barnyard Dance, and The Going to Bed Book. There are more, but these are the highlights from that age range
