But of course your brain can process each ear separately. You have a holistic conscious experience, but that is like a hallucination constructed by your brain for your own benefit.…

Even if you could do attribution correctly (I think you can do this partially if you are really diligent about A/B testing), that is still only one input to the equation. The other…

> Also, if you don't like the NASDAQ 100 rules, then you don't have to invest in securities that track it. Isn't the idea with the indexes that they allow you to intentionally not …

I think the draft covers this well: https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-knodel-e2ee-definition...

Browser use has a project "Workflow Use" that has similar aims: https://github.com/browser-use/workflow-use

This is not true. The IETF draft is explicit that E2EE means that the message cannot be read by any party other than the sender and the intended receiver. When companies like Meta …

Hiring is still a pretty non-uniform thing despite attempts to make it less so - I'm sure there are some teams and orgs at all these large companies that do it well, and some that …

I take it as a given that what is stored and graphed is an information-destroying aggregate, but I think that aggregate is actually still useful + meaningful

> This is partly a tooling problem. Many of the tools we use do not do a good job of capturing and representing this data. For example, the majority of latency graphs produced by G…

They care very deeply about this and devoted a lot of resources to (re)grading the digital versions that you see today on Disney+. The versions you see are intentional and not the …

I'm hearing you out, but how is this going to affect the part of this that is client behavior rather than database behavior? If there is some kind of sdk that actually captures the…

I think I see this point now. I thought of YAGNI as, "don't ever over-engineer because you get it wrong a lot of the time" but really, "don't over-engineer out of the gate and be t…

I think the tricky thing here is that the specific things I referred to (real time writes and pushing SQL predicates into your similarity search) work fine at small scale in such a…

The post is a clear example of when YAGNI backfires, because you think YAGNI but then, you actually do need it. I had this experience, the author had this experience, you might as …

One of the interesting experiences I have being a member both of this community and the baseball analytics community is seeing posts like this, where apparently the author thinks t…

The way I read the paper, "diffusion" was more of a metaphor - you start with the output of the LLM as the overview (very much _not_ random noise), and then refine it over many ste…

One interesting thing I learned from this was how they determined the probable size of this comet probabilistically, rather than using direct observation - basically, based on the …

Have you heard of https://www.autobiographer.com/ ? Is it similar, different?

Maybe I worded this more harshly than I meant. I value anybody who tries to communicate with me and I don't mean to try to discourage people from having ideas or communicating them…

I think this is a great post. It will ruffle some feathers and people will feel attacked, but I think the core idea is exactly right: if we are communicating and the goal is the ex…

Maybe I am blinded by my own use case, but I find the caching pricing and strategy (since different providers use a different implementation of caching as well as different pricing…

Yes, 1 year

I just filled it out for store credit, and it didn't matter at all the condition of my phone (it's in horrible shape), I just put in the IMEI number and that was that. It could be …

Interesting quote from the venturebeat article linked: > “There is also a reason why clinicians who deal with patients on the front line are trained to ask questions in a certain w…
