    To elaborate on this, if the individual in Somalia didn't want to die from said cancer and preferred better regulation, they would readily move to Ohio.

    Dollar street [1] (linked from the article) by Gapminder is a fascinating resource for learning about what life is really like for many people. [1]: https://www.gapminder.org/dolla…

    Almost a kind of domino theory, if you will?

    Most likely is that you are in some control group to determine effects of ads in general.

    The intersection of entities whose security is based around "responding to every CVE quickly" and the entities that care about supporting OSS projects has measure zero.

    Mathematics is such a wide field and the questions asked here are ill defined. If the comment is "the AI founder bros are hyping it up and it's not as good as they claim", I think …

    This is my favourite book, it's hilarious and it kind of mirrors how I go about my life: pondering every little detail and how everything fits together. I'm not sure if it's the sa…

    In the US, that is an unthinkably bad swearword for some reason.

    5 year amortization is pretty realistic I'd say. A100s (came out 2020Q1) are still in heavy use. (I think V100s from 2017Q3 are starting to be phased out a fair bit.)

    Another similar thing is to leave an easy sentence half-finished so when you come back to it, there's an obvious first thing to do and hop back in.

    On a quick look, isn't this a bit antithetical to the concept of the internet as a decentralized and hierarchical system? You have to route through the public internet to interoper…

    I agree on the first. On the second: I would bet a lot of money that they aren't actually breaking even on their API (or even close to). They don't have a "pay as you go" per-token…

    The APU is not on during flight, so not a safety thing. It's just for providing power (and bleed air) on the ground (if there's no other power source). E.g. can't start up at airpo…

    Glad to see them releasing it under an MIT license.

    I think it's a bit early to say. At least in my domain, the models released this year (Gemini 2.5 Pro, etc). Are crushing models from last year. I would therefore not by any means …

    I'm not afraid of running servers, that was not the point. The point was exactly that I wanted a serverless postgres. If I can throw together a random project, completely isolated,…

    A good example of how good ideas can suck with bad implementation. NYC has a paratransit system where you can essentially do something like this if you have a disability that stops…

    It's my understanding that Neon had some tech to basically "wake up" the DB when a request came out -- so you could "scale down to zero," if you will. I was hoping to explore this …

    They just renamed "system" to "developer" for some reason. Their API doesn't care which one you use, it'll translate to the right one. From the page you linked: > "developer": from…

    RegistrarSafe is a registrar spun up by Meta for precisely the purpose of guarding their own domains and isn't open to external customers.

    Late 2025, "its PhD-level knowledge of every field". I just don't think you're going to get there. There is still a fundamental limitation that you can only be as good as the sourc…
