What? I never said that. I was explaining gender affirming care. It's not a trans exclusive thing necessarily.

It's literally something that helps maintain a physical aspect associated with a person's gender. Granted, hairloss can happen to anybody, but baldness is highly predominant towards the male population.

But the interview process is a mockery.

You're not necessarily wrong but maybe a bit naive about what cutting edge research entails.

Ok. I'm fine agreeing to disagree.

Because who cares? There are any number of mathematicians out there, why put so much value on one "thought leader"? I just find HNs obsession with knowing what one particular person thinks odd. It's a consistent reoccurrence.

I guess if that's how you feel about it, more power to you. The day I get away from almost all tech will be a good day. Also I get that TSA sucks but I don't think they deserve the vitriol you're throwing.

This is such a brain dead solution to a problem that shouldn't exist. Why push for digitization?

Why does it matter what Terrance Tao thinks? Genuinely I find this obsession with what some specific math researcher thinks about x topic bizarre. What do you think of it?

> It’s one thing to be upset and angry about capitalism and businesses. Right, we should all continue grumbling about it for the rest of our lives as law and government intended. Nothing will change and the meat grinder will continue chu

It's never an easy thing to do or one that should come to fruition, but yes, I would contribute to the effort for my country if it was so.

No, it's not. But at least they have some relative, albeit flawed, context. It's the difference of having heard of something vs not.

Its broken with alias but what's this about the podman-socket? Do you know where I can take a look at that?

You would be surprised how many people have no idea what "machine learning" means (not even technical definition but just as in the field). I'm working on a PhD in an adjacent field and basically have to tell people I work in

My only problems with Podman is the lack of up to date repos across systems, the fact that the latest raw binaries are managed by a maintainer out of the goodness of their heart, and that the VS Code extension ecosystem for managing pods is

As a hobbyist photographer, I am deeply touched by this. Thank you for sharing this.

Or you could just use a burner account and avoid this.

Exactly my point, hence why at least from the learning side it works well towards making something that is actually correct. What I was aiming at is that too often people teaching this stuff get lost in the weeds without any clear motivatio

As an introduction to the topic it functions very well though. It doesn't matter whether it's valid or not. In fact, I would say that diving immediately into the validity of some bullshit independence assumptions and other nonsens

The same could be said for R and Tidyverse crowd. Honestly two entirely separate visions.

I'm so confused. I'm trying to understand what is wrong with mind wandering but to me it doesn't seem clear.

Not to me.

Okay, happy it works for you. Still don't see a point.

But why build a whole VCS around that one use case? I looked through the docs and honestly it looks like it complicates life instead of making it easier. edit: everyone is so focused on the "single use case" part and not the fact

Your mom. But seriously, nothing. Just the problem at hand. What's there to visualize when working on a job? It's not exactly an art and it's a lot closer to mathematics in regards to problem solving.

Case in point. It's hard to value life when you are willing to contribute to the loss of it. I hope that the price of your morals is at the very least high to be sold so easily.

Given that it's a site run by a startup incubator with opaque moderation and a strong American bias, I would imagine that most things that make "line go up" are ok.

Yeah... only downside is that it requires a level of competency to recognize when the LLM is shoveling shit instead of gold.
