Enlighten us which BigCo gave Ladybird money?

Please don't be ashamed for your thoughts, nor feelings. Each of us have struggles of our own and we cannot compare our paths or strength with others. Just because some people cope differently, doesn't mean there is anything wrong with you or the way you process pain. Each of us is unique, with our own backstory.

I have recently also struggled with the decision whether to end my life. I was afraid to seek help and to talk to a professional.

If you ever feel like you need someone to listen or just talk to, please reach out at Twitter or at <username>@gmail.com

klohto··on A cafe worker: the question customers ask showing disrespect
You genuinely believe someone wants to hear your opinion on what they study? You're a complete stranger, I don't care how much years of experience you have.
klohto··on How fast can a human possibly run 100 meters?
I’m genuinely sorry for this, but what the fuck.

* Can the misconception that micro-muscle tears cause growth just die? We already know since 90s that it’s the myonuclei addition driven by muscle tension.

* There is no strength gain without muscle gain. There is not a single mechanism recorded that would drive this behavior.

* This post made me angry on so many fucking levels. Hex-bar deadlift is at least a good choice for legs due to its lower load on lumbar.

* Finally, it’s the concentric that drives most of the hypertrophy. Not eccentric. It’s why you see gym bros and most IFBB pros (gear aside) disregard eccentric control and hammer the concentric. Because that’s the movement that drives the growth.

* Eccentric cause most fatigue (many types) and lowering slower on purpose would hinder recovery times (and growth as well since the relationship between the two exists)

You already made it, no need to be humble. You don’t need to finish the CS to call yourself engineer :)

Great documentation and an awesome project. Good job.

maybe when we have abundant Starlink capacity, otherwise any satellite-to-ground roundtrip at a reasonable speed is costly

klohto··on Koheesio: Nike's Python-based framework to build advanced data-pipelines
yes, Nike is a corp where everyone sings kumbaya and the engineers have unlimited time to work on and publish libraries they are proud of, they don’t have to deliver specific values at all.

klohto··on How we manage individual user concurrencies with Nginx and Lua
You know what business use? SSO. The service doesn’t have SSO? Then not enough business are using it or you’re a startup who wants to save money. Your audience is limited to handful of services and small startups while trying to add benefits that only big players need.

klohto··on Hacked Nvidia 4090 GPU driver to enable P2P
afaik 4090 doesn’t support 5.0 so you are limited to 4.0 speeds. Still an improvement.

klohto··on GPT-4 Turbo with Vision is a step backwards for coding
I would be curious to see if the results improve by using DSPy to improve your prompts (and also reevaluate which prompts work better on the newest model).

how are you comparing renouncing citizenship with temporarily leaving the country
klohto··on Saving cloud costs by writing our own database
yea, multi AZ failover would be an issue but I assume they don’t care that much.

you could spinup new EBS from the backup when the first region fails or keep a warm copy there, but seems like a lot of extra engi work.

klohto··on Saving cloud costs by writing our own database
EBS can be multi attached for a long time now, no perf impact
klohto··on The Software Architecture of Palia
Perforce and Plastic (now Unity, ugh) are used widely. They are AFAIK the only VCS that can handle large binaries, huge repos (XX TBs) and out of the box diffing on non-text files. Plus a nice client for non-technical folks (artists) to use.

I don’t know if Andrew is still answering, but how does it work with calculations for reentry?

It’s basically ballistic downward, how do you make sure you won’t hit anything on your way down over many layers?

klohto··on Memory and new controls for ChatGPT
FYI, also make sure you’re using the Classic version not the augmented one. The classic has no (at least completely altering) prompt as the default one.

EDIT: This of course applies only if you’re using the UI. Using the API is the same.
