I am not aware of any specific studies that focus on a 30/30 cycle, but there's plenty of research that suggests taking regular breaks is good for you. The ideal work-break routine is about the work you do, if you control your own

The most important tool for AI-assisted coding isn't an agent framework. It's a timer that forces you to take regular breaks. Back in 2010 Chetan Surpur introduced the Magic Work Cycle productivity technique. The idea: 30 min focu

Didn’t read the code yet, but stuff like this tend to be brittle. Do you do something clever around stack overflow, function return overwrite or would that just mess up all coroutines using the same stack?

Not only the manual, but Gnus itself. I remember this guy from the university (UiO) when he started working on Gnus. He was a small celebrity among us informatics students, and we all used Emacs and Gnus, of course.

The effect of globalization is that the west is bringing the rest of the world over the poverty line at the cost of deteriorating ourselves. Hard to say how this will end.

Really cold weather doesn’t have much wind. It’s metrology. Without long term storage, wind power during the winter in the northern hemisphere is just meh. Same with any variable renewable energy source. Instead of celebrating the few times

Exactly this (plus floating point types and unsigned qualifier) and done. It’s standard C, there is no need to invent yet another unnecessary “type” system for standard C native types. I do like bool though.

Isn’t this the whole point of John Searl’s “the Chinese room” thought experiment? But does it matter what is actually going on inside the room, if the effect and function is indistinguishable? Edit: after conferring with ChatGPT, Searle’s p

Somethings in mathematics are constant, both here and on alpha centauri, like the circumference of a circle divide by its diameter is Π or the hypotenuse squared is the sum of each leg squared in a right triangle etc.

Cats & dogs mostly communicate with body language so this is of limited use. A translator model would need video for training. I can’t wait for the day when I can point my iPhone camera at a dog and learn what it tries to communicate. I
