I suspect that is precisely why it got better at coding benchmarks.

There indeed is a standardized interface provided via EFI: https://docs.kernel.org/fb/efifb.html

If my Googling is correct, it seems to have been removed around 2020-2021. Russia first invaded Ukraine in 2014 though.

Luckily, you can make more plants from a single plant. Which makes me wonder about the commercial viability here, as plant people tend to be quite promiscuous when it comes to sharing cuttings...

Assuming they have enough money, yes. Public charity drives for such cases are also pretty common.

That seems pretty reasonable for debugging no? And you can just replace them by hand, on your prototype board, in case you have been debugging so hard you managed to break one of them.

> I'm pretty sure Europe does as well

Does it? A cursory search seems to put an (used) EV at around 10k$ at best. Poor people definitely do not drive 10k$ cars here. Hell, even my tech-adjacent friends in their twenties rarely own anything more expensive than 3k$-ish.

The lack of birds in the small town where my parents live, and dozens of semi-feral cats roam, is always rather unsettling. Meanwhile the parks in a city two orders of magnitude larger are bustling with activity, since the life expectancy of an outdoor cat here is close to zero.

I do not think the article implied that this was safe in any way. Sometimes doing something unsafe is the only way to accomplish a task.

Then it would not be "done right". Performing an action that has no effect is pointless.

> At least, the Netherland got it right. Just say it’s unhealthy, recommend people don’t drink regularly and let them do what they want from there.

Did this actually decrease alcohol consumption though?

The other components of the human body are also required for brain function.

Grandparent likely means Super Squats, not Starting Strength, which is definitely a bodybuilding program.

Since May, I have (very deliberately) put on ~16kg of mass, going from a BMI of 17.5 to 22.8. Started at around 2500kcal/day, currently at 3500kcal/day.

> I could not overeat to save my life

You are likely eating the wrong foods. It is _highly individual_ what kind of food can people eat in large caloric quantities. Start calorie tracking and experimenting more, you can figure this out. Some people do well with oatmeal (tastes like soggy sawdust to me), some with various nuts (peanut butter is a fitness industry staple), others make themselves milkshakes etc etc.

Progressive overload is key here, don't just expect to start eating 4000kcal/day, it is not going to happen (and would not be productive anyway).

> I cannot concentrate with a meal in my stomach

Same here. I feel like eating makes me lose about 10 IQ points, not great (though I am at a place in life where I can make this sacrifice). Maybe more sugar would be helpful here.

You may also find the /r/gainit subreddit englightening.

That would probably be way out of budget for them (and would discourage most participants if they had to pay for it themselves). Even here, a bioimpedance body composition thingy is like 10$ and a DEXA scan is around 35$.

On the other hand, humanity is spending several pounds of food per day on a generic programmer and all they have to show for it is some numbers shuffling around inside of a computer.

Turning less tasty food into tastier food at a 2:1 ratio honestly does not seem all that terrible in the big picture.

Surely you can just eat more beans until you get enough methionine to satisfy your protein synthesis needs. We are not (yet, in the western world) at the point of having to eat a starvation diet (where the amino acid profile is actually important, since you are trying to eat as little as possible).

Calculate? No. But you do not need to calculate, you can measure it indirectly, by running something like:

    X ← 2000
    while true:
        eat X kcal/day for about two weeks
        if your weight has increased: 
            X ← X - 200
        if your weight has decreased:
            X ← X + 200

Observe that this can also be modified for gaining/losing weight. It is also robust --- X actually need not be physically accurate, it is just a number in our calorie tracking app, so even if we are miscounting something, we are hopefully doing so consistently over time.

Indeed. I was completely miserable in high school, instead getting my dose of social interaction by visiting a hackerspace. Genuinely believe that was the only thing that kept me from going insane at that point in life.

Now of course interacting with people that are twice my age during my teens has produced some bonus problems in my social skills, but the alternative here is feeling completely isolated, not somehow magically learning to be normal™ person™ as many educators seem to think.

A more convenient value to measure is measuring the intermodulation distortion [1], since it does not require measuring harmonics that can be pretty far away from wherever the center frequency is.

It may be a bit of an overkill for audio, since I am not quite sure how consistently these systems usually perform across their entire bandwidth.

Was available in DIP, was... None of the standard suppliers have them at the moment and I have some doubts they are ever going to be available again, considering the rather limited demand.

Indeed, the patent(s) [1] are particularly enlightening. Still a bit astonishing that it actually works though.

Do you have real time priority configured for the Pipewire (and possibly bluetoothd) process? I had annoying stutter issues before setting that up (Gentoo could not do it automatically at the time, but that may have changed).

It's not a terrible assumption to make. We just need to assume[1] that the decay events are independent, that is, every bond flips a coin every 500 years and if it comes up heads, it breaks, independent of what the other bonds do. That is, the process is inherently "local", individual bonds having no way of knowing what the other bonds are doing.

[1] It may be a bit worse in the long run, since if many bonds break, the higher order DNA structure gets damaged and that may change the rate of decay experienced by individual bonds (?).

And, even better, the dimension of the kernel of d just counts how many connected components the domain has.

There is a similar thing in graph theory, where the kernel of the incidence matrix counts how many connected components a graph has.

Firstly, hardware debouncing is a bit awkward to implement on a multiplexed matrix, since you need a debouncing circuit for each of your inputs (meaning about a dozen or so of them).

More importantly though, software debouncing offers greater flexibility. For keyboards, you usually[1] want to implement an asymmetric "eager" mode, where a key press gets registered immediately and only the key release is debounced. Since software usually does stuff on the key down event, this works to reduce latency.

[1] Well, that's what the various enthusiast mechanical keyboard firmwares do, I am not so sure that generic $random_corp keyboards do care...

The first sentence on the website says:

> Yggdrasil is an implementation of a new name-independent routing scheme and functions as an end-to-end encrypted IPv6 network.

Somehow I don't think this project is aimed at "normal, mainstream people"...

"Friction". Mechanically, electrons in a metal conductor behave something like a glass bead in honey. Observe that the microscopic Ohm's law says that the velocity is _proportional_ to the force being applied, the electrons do not accelerate as they would in a uniform electric field in vacuum.

Ah, that's it then. I figured they would likely have a passcode, since the "someone steals my phone on public transport" threat vector is a pretty obvious one even for non-tech users. Unfortunately the thread got nuked before I got to read it more...
