    I'm in a similar boat as you - from what I can tell, best bet is to buy from Chrono24, used, from a dealer with good reviews, and pay ~250 additional for chrono24's certification s…

    “running your texts through the genericizer” - what a lovely way to put it!

    Do you do this manually? Or some abstraction above that? skills, some light orchestration, etc?

    Will a full complete org mode ever come to vim? A man can hope… Edit: I wonder if the vim community can contribute to a feature bounty like this? Hmm

    As an engineer, this and the principle of least action occupy my wall of “things I think are super deep and maybe mysterious* and interesting and I wish I understood deeply” * inte…

    Thinking of doing the same! Which kit did you order? I see a FNG, FNG+ Bundle, and "Learn lockpicking bundle". 3rd one seems the most likely candidate. Any tips you can share? Than…

    Do you have any references you can share for sexual abuse and/or cults associated with rationalists?

    Sorry - what do you mean by yud-cult? Searching google didn’t help me (as far as I can tell) - I view LW from an outside perspective as well, but don’t understand the reference

    Purely empirical observation, in my own life, make no claim as to humanity/society/etc.: It's interesting how often fermi estimation problems are used as proxy's for "intelligence"…

    Very strongly suggest you check out Isaac Asimov’s “The Last Question” https://users.ece.cmu.edu/~gamvrosi/thelastq.html

    I 100% agree - I’m only saying hegseth didn’t run an unsecured line into his office himself no? Why didn’t some automated system say “installation of unsecured lines in this buildi…

    Just to clarify - I am not presuming to shift blame - I am asking about a failure mode here- absolutely hold hegseth accountable (he should have never been in this position and is …

    Not downplaying or defending - but I don’t understand the failure mode here - presumably hegseth had to ask someone in pentagon IT to set this up? Submit a form etc. sure he asked …

    Thanks for this! I read this paper/derivation/justification once in grad school but I can’t now find the reference - do you have one?

    Yes - in fact I recently uninstalled pyenv and poetry, switched to uv, used it to install python and poetry (for work projects)

    Thanks that makes sense - just feels weird to go from years of “be very careful rewriting history with git, especially at work” to jj rewriting everything all the time - can’t shak…

    How does this work with a shared remote branch? I know in git when you alter your history you can do a `git push --force-with-lease` as a safer `--force` - do you have to do this f…
