Exactly. It's the configuration of the atoms, not their number, that matters.

Sure, but I thought that a successfully implemented CG'd language running on WASM would have been something worth noting.

by JenrHywy 3y ago
Maybe we read different articles? I thought the context was how it was hard to do GC in WASM currently, which is why we don't have many language choices. With that context, C# running on top of WASM seems pretty relevant?

Admittedly I only scanned the article, but I didn't see any mention of C# or Blazor. I've only fiddled with it, but it seems that (when targeting WASM) Blazor loads a (partial) .NET runtime in WASM and then happily lets your execu

There are non-subscription alternatives, though they differ from lightroom. I quite like Exposure[0] and although I haven't used the desktop version of RAW Power[1] its ipad app is quite good. [0] https://exposure.software

Because photographs are most powerful as a store of/trigger for memories, and my photographs are better at that than someone else's, for the most part.

That's not my experience, and I've been writing C# since .NET 1.1. Obviously though it depends on the scale of the app. If you have 1m+ LoC, you really need to have some sort of structure, regardless of the language.

> Just for comparison, $180k would be out of range for anyone outside the US I don't think it's too far off the mark for Australia. Mind you, that's gross. US$180 is about AU$280k. Of that, you'd pay around AU$100k in

This is a good point. In practice, you need to acknowledge effort, ability and outcome. If you're thinking about areas of study or work, you really want to pick something you enjoy where you can produce quality outcomes and that almost

My house is wood frame, brick veneer. It was relatively cheaply built government housing back in the 40s/50s. It seems to have held up just fine with the weight of concrete tiles.

Yeah our (concrete tile) roof is about 80 years old. The only maintenance has been replacing broken tiles after a particularly bad hail storm.

I had a neurologist tell me that the scans he'd performed proved that there was nothing wrong with my wife, and he didn't know why she was choosing to act as though she had a neurological issue. In neurology at least, I think a lo

I think the implication is that it's race warfare is a tool used by the "ruling" class to wage class warfare on the poor.

I had someone from our diversity team say, in a meeting of 100+, that the problem that the team are trying to combat is "whiteness". This coming from a white woman who quite openly said that she'd only recently started identi

They may be more diverse in terms of race and sexuality, but have very little diversity of opinion and worldview.

One of Jung's more interesting concepts is that of enantiodromia - where things taken to extremes become their opposite. It's also a concept in the I Ching (where the "strongest" lines are the ones the ones changed into

I switched to Joplin for this reason. I used to use git + text editor, but it's not the best experience on Android, and seemingly near impossible on iOS.

I do something similar, but switched from bash/vim/markdown to Joplin a while back. I lost the immediacy of bash, but seamless syncing and editing across multiple devices, especially mobile, made it worth it. The main thing is tha

That's an interesting observation. I can't justify why, but : feels a lot more fluid to type than gg, even though as you say, gg has less keystrokes and still keeps you on the home row.

The most amazing thing about vim is that, even as a fairly basic user, I can read an article like this, learn a ton, and still realize that I have an easier way of doing something than the author (why use 100gg when :100 exists?). It seems

I used to use the Ctrl-P plugin, but to be honest, these days I just use an IDE with a vim plugin. Usually if I'm in a remote terminal session, I don't have more than a few files open and can get by with :bn.

Moderators generally aren't checking for correctness - who would have that sort of time?

Not being snarky - but do you have references for that? Most research I've seen either conflates nicotine and tobacco, or finds 'pure' nicotine (eg NRTs) have close to zero negative side effects.

There are public static diffusion models trained on/like midjourney, but IMO they're still lacking.

Given Yudkowsky's stance on AI, it is hilariously jarring for someone to use HPMOR as inspiration for an article on prompt engineering.

I've been thinking about this some more. Decision-making around parenting is extremely bizarre. Parenting seems like an example of L.A. Paul's "vampire problem" - where you're such a different person after an event
