I feel dumb, but what does oxidized mean in this context?

Can jj iterate through a list of repositories and clone them all to local storage?

It isn't very hard to make a bash script to do it, but I have about six github repos, all of which frequently need to be put on a new machine. that kind of functionality would be cool to have out of the box.

This is all terrifying data.

Seriously. And not even to build a house, but to make a single person not homeless. Give me a break.

The Clinton administration ran a budget surplus

Why is hiking the tallest mountain in the world not an insurance carve out

Make coverage void in the Himalayas... problem solved

I bounced off the loading animation

I thought the site was down/broken

Definitely! Thanks for the reply.

Is there anything we can do to make it better?

This sounds super cool.

What does your dev stack look like?

Nobody is pirating them

It would surprise me if they're willing to come to the US in the setting of the current DHS and ICE situation.

What a strange interpretation.

As you mention: Dedekind stopped corresponding with him after the publication, but also began keeping a copy of every letter he sent to Cantor.

Sure it's circumstantial, but it's exactly what you would do when you're the victim of a plagiarist.

In my eyes the burden of proof has been met.

Why mit license?

If gpl is a blocker for users then offer them a paid license with the exceptions they want. But MIT allows a commercial entity to ingest your code, close source it, and commercialize it .

GPL-3 (with the option of custom commercial licenses) seems strictly superior to MIT in this respect. Can you help me understand why this choice is so popular?

When the US dollar definitively loses its status as the reserve currency of the world there is no great competitor to replace it.

Bitcoin has features which make it uniquely appropriate for this: namely that no other currency is so resistant to debasement.

I anticipate it will recover and set new records.

I think this thesis is completely broken.

All of US manufacturing went to China because labor was cheaper.

You can't build things when you don't have a robust manufacturing base

I think the name is not unique enough

Interestingly, this is the kind of negative feedback that your post implies is bad. Thank goodness for negative feedback!

You are right, but it's just a whataboutism argument, isn't it? There are lots of other evils by other businesses; why are they relevant here?

I love this write-up. As a non-expert user of package managers I can quickly understand a set of patterns that have been deeply considered and carefully articulated. Thanks for taking the time to write up your observations!

> Or if one really cares about the loss, use direct current

I thought direct current had higher transmission losses vs AC

You raise such an interesting point!

But consider: as LLMs get better and approach AGI you won't need a corpus: only a specification.

In this way, AI may enable more languages, not less.

kayfabe competition.

You are obviously correct, but I don't know that it really matters.

As I see it, the movement is about pointing out that the most useless dumbest biggest failure of a mega corporation is actually great in light of their current practices.

Why does it matter whether they would have messed it up if they implemented it today?

Restated: the point is not that clippy is great. The point is that he sucked, and that he is great relative to what kinds of products Microsoft is creating today.

Where do you see sourcehut falling short?

> Still far, far too complex to occur "randomly," which is fascinating

Why spend time making this point? Nobody believes that this occurred randomly: it occurred via evolution.

The mutations are a random part of evolution, but the process overall is not random at all - no more so than your immune system (which randomly generates antibodies, then selects against those that target innate epitopes), or stable diffusion (which starts with random noise, then marches up a gradient toward a known target).

It is the selection step that makes similar processes non-random, because a random selection step would just be noise.

That hint is amazing! I tried it out and love that you can do this!

The effect size is from 0.6 to 2.2 percent.

That's 4x.

That seems quite large to me.

Can you elaborate on your point that translation is not linear? The OP agrees with you, so clearly your point is correct, but I personally just don't understand it. Isn't it true that translation is linear within the coordinate space of your model, even if the final distance traveled within a projected camera view is not?

edit to add: (I think your point relates only to the projection system, and not a pure, unprojected model; I just want to make sure I understand because it seems like an important point)
