Master Git and a novice were walking to the market to collect alms. The novice asked: "Master, what is the advantage of unstructured text over structured? Is it not mere adoption?"…

Now that my storehouse has burned down, nothing conceals the moon. This piece instantly reminded me of Ashes and Snow movie, where one of the poems has very similar opening (follow…

Dataviz suggestions from top of the page to the bottom: - Location search & display: no English version, only localized names, which is hard to reason if you don't know native lang…

Drop me a line if you would like to talk. Email is in the profile.

You are not alone in this. Though I would say it is absolute horror, not just suboptimal one. Practically speaking, I have no idea what I _personally_ can do except of accepting th…

Unfortunately, ear plugs would not help against low frequency bass noise, which this noise typically is.

I kind of see your point, but only in the context of working on time-sensitive task which others rely upon. But if it is hobby/educational project, what is wrong doing things by yo…

I would say that AI is not to blame here. It just accelerated existing process, but didn't initiate it. We (as a society) started to value quantity over quality some time ago, and,…

To tptacek and other guys who seem to have unwavering trust in OCRs/LLMs, as well as to opposite party who think that technology is not there yet — you are all partially right, but…

Don't blame me. setInterval(() => { [...document.querySelectorAll(".upgrade,.loot-box-target,button")].map((e) => e.click()); }, 50)

I am primarily interested in applied projects that make a difference and aim to tangibly reduce human and animal suffering: med R&D, eco, civil infra, pharma or space, but may cons…

I will never understand people who say that mortality is what gives life a meaning. It is exactly opposite. If I can't observe effects of my actions (and most likely "I" would not …

Hey. I know _exactly_ what you are talking about. I've been thinking about that for a quite awhile now, and I guess I have some perspective, but don't have exact answers and I don'…

Hey. It's nothing very fancy. About 150 lines of C/CUDA code with no deps, including args parsing and logging. The code runs at steady rate of 18.00-18.40 GH/s at cloud GPU. In fac…

Interestingly, I have the ability to increase my resting pulse rate and then decrease it back to normal, without using any specific imagination techniques. I believe this is closel…

Hey, I've realized the same thing (that my workflows are stack-based) awhile ago, but didn't get to the point of writing a tool yet. Dare to share? Also, which approach you use to …

I guess it is a matter of experience and practice, as with anything else, really. There is a very subtle mental state between "I am too aware that I am dreaming" and "there is no a…

It is a common problem when you starting to get lucid dreams. There are number of techniques to combat that too, but it will generally go away after you become used to it. You just…

Yeah. Read "Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming" book by Stephen LaBerge. It proposes a number of techniques, some of them works better than other for different people. If you ar…

Apparently I was even more obsessed. Wanna "trade" solutions?
