What’s the difference?

Or how a carpenter arranges their tools.

I built a world cup tracker into an LED matrix display, and now I'm working on making it useful after the world cup

That’s the joy of prompting. Different prompts, different task details, different contexts, different results

Nah. It’s all part of the clickbait. You want to know which physicist, so you click

I love this. Feel like I’m the same way. I also feel like some of this “focusing on the wrong thing” is sharpening the saw, preparing my mind and my environment for greater productivity. As long as I eventually return to the right things.

If AI’m building isn’t a typo, I kinda like it as a way to accurately claim what I’m building with AI.

How do you propose a journalist work without posting their writing online?

Adguard Home and others can be configured to complete your DNS requests over HTTPS (using, for example, https://dns.cloudflare.com/dns-query).

Did you read the article? It’s about how to tell if your database is read or write heavy.

That works for software, but not as well for services like YouTube

It really is exactly this. My default mindset is "everybody's busy with their own lives, so they probably don't have time so I won't even try to invite them to X." Change your assumptions a little bit to instead assume people want to do things. If they say no, so be it. But I've found that people want to be invited out to do more things than they are, so send the invites.

I started swimming with a community team two years ago, and about 4 months in I invited them to also lift weights with me. Now there are about 8 of us that are together 5 mornings per week. Took a chance and invited them on a trip, and now 5 of us are going on a week long trip together.

Find a group of people doing something you like. If it's a tech meetup, community organization, hobby group, whatever. What it is doesn't matter. What matters is that you find people with whom you share _an_ interest. Then take a chance there and say "hey, want to meet up for lunch next week?" Or just say "hey, I'm going to see X next weekend, want to come?"

> I think some people just have to be the inviters or relationships fall apart.

As annoying as it is, this is definitely true. I've only recently become an inviter, and it's made all the difference. It helps to recognize that not everybody is an inviter/organizer.

Or the inflation worries with 8% inflation

People complained about censorship within ChatGPT pretty quickly after it was released. The difference is that now people know to look for it, so the evaluations are happening both more quickly and more systematically.

Except the article explains in fairly easy to understand terms how the study came to this theory, and the original paper is linked from that article. The question here gives the impression that the asker read only the headline.

I’d guess money has a lot (everything) to do with it. The Linux gamers market is not big enough to be worth the investment.

I think your use of "thin client" here is literally redefining a thin client to be the opposite. The thick client software of MS Word does all the things locally, which is part of what makes it responsive.

One of the roles government can play is to take the negative externalities of an activity (e.g., pollution) and internalize it so that those costs are paid by those who are profiting. The way to do that is to create taxes, fee structures, etc. so that those making money on activities contribute to the overall societal cost.

It was a cardiac arrest during surgery. Likely nothing preventable or predictable. Just tragic

Because you must be a natural-born citizen of the US.

I think there are a lot of theories about why people eat too much, and all of them apply to some people. I have been eating "healthier" for months, including about 5x as much vegetables as I had been previously into my eating, cutting back (but not eliminating) desserts. I still found that I did not lose weight because I was eating too much. I don't believe it was because I was not getting adequate nutrition - I just wanted food.

I love how every time a parent posts that they use a phone so they know where their kids are, it turns into the same argument about "surveillance." I have kids who are <10 years old, and a phone or watch that lets me know where they are makes me much more comfortable allowing them to roam our neighborhood. I can always get in touch with them and call them home from whoever's home they are playing in.

And then the argument becomes "when I was young, we didn't have phones, and we still found our way home." Which to me feels a bit like "I never wore a bike helmet, and I was fine." Not entirely the same argument, but along the same lines. Sometimes new technology helps us do things better than it was done in the past. Back in the day, we couldn't keep touch with our spouses throughout the day at work or especially while traveling. Now we can, and in my opinion, that's largely an improvement over what we had in the past.

Sure, some parents use it poorly to track and interrogate their kids about their location 24/7. But just because I track my kids does not mean I am spying on them or "getting them used to a surveillance state" like some arguments I have seen here.

Hit me for the first time this morning

I suspect it’s not being addressed well because it’s one of the fundamental challenges of school in the first place. For many, assessment and grades are the end goal, and any learning that happens is secondary.
