Under one on the richter scale, did somebody trip in the highlands?

Hope I’m getting wooshed over here, since you know that tidbit you’ve gotta know that was because they couldn’t just throw more RAM at the problem and actually had to come up with some clever optimisations, right?

Thank you! I hate it but that’s why I feel compelled to join the herd, the number of times I’ve seen people bring on huge duffels or hiker bags large enough to require thumping the bucket closed is too goddamn high

I’ve found myself in similar situations. However I haven’t taken full three weeks off; I think my longest has been about 10 days.

I’ve always relished getting back to it with a clear mind and often a well thought out plan and it feels like the features flow faster from the fingertips.

Never fight taking a bit of time off, it grants perspective and lets you decompress, don’t think that can ever be a bad thing (given there’s nothing you really need to be doing in that time to make sure you’ve got a steady income)

Not my area of expertise but density is the wrong concept to be looking into remaining equal, its pressure. The amount of helium gas you pump in to the balloon creates a certain outward pressure that’s at equilibrium with outside air pressure, that’s why it doesn’t collapse (if you were to place the balloon in a vacuum then it would expand and probably burst, that’s usually what happens when a child loses one and it escapes higher up in the atmosphere to lower pressures)

The atmospheric pressure simply isn’t strong enough to overcome the outward pressure.

Bonus point: density is actually the reason why a helium balloon floats, its less dense than air so it wants to float up. Much like a rubber duck or ice cube in water.

I mean obviously not everything everyone is going to talk about is going to be scientifically accurate. Those two examples give big “Uhm ahcktualllly” energy as they’re simply helpful to explain simple patterns because everyone knows what you mean by them.

Better examples (in my mind) would be real woo-woo shit like alt medicine or energy crystals.

1. Please sir may I have some more pixels?
2. Yup Climate Change should be the number one priority for every country on the planet!
3. AGI is a way different idea than the LLMs we have today and I don’t think we should discard it too haphazardly.

The threat stemming from AGI doesn’t rely on linearly scaling intelligence, just imagine one human that can think faster than you by the same margin that a computer can do pretty much anything faster than you + it’s directly connected to the internet. As long as one grants the assumption of speed and superior programming skills, I believe one must acknowledge that a certain level of risk arises.

Also you don’t need to ascribe it any anthropomorphic intentions or even consciousness. The argument stands that if what it is going to do, be it by an errant instruction/misunderstanding or mischief, is not what a morally sane person would consider to be in our best interests, how are we going to stop it from performing said undesirable task if it’s as smart/smarter, faster and better at programming and networking than us?

My brother in Christ, have you heard about our lord and saviour the Scientific Method and the proliferation of cross-domain ideas? How do you imagine the li-ion batteries came about as the go-to energy storage solution? Incremental improvements of ideas would be my guess, ideas have to start somewhere and of course they’re going to be hyperbolic since researchers are both excited and have to draw attention to their ideas.

I sympathise with your point but the alternative is little to no research into different battery technologies because close to nothing will ever emerge as a competitive day-one drop-in replacement, but some ideas may prove exciting to others who understand the value and they might push the ball further towards realistic alternatives.

Phew, didn’t see the community and thought you had roally violated a piece of seafood

Lost me in the center there

I think there you hit the nail on the head! Just the fact that it is in there, whether intentionally or not is something that warrants warning people about. So that in the case someone goes to set up a server, they at least know that recently there was this rather severe risk of unnecessary credential exposure, again no matter if it was intentional or not.

However, I will say that I think I would have also opened the PR, not to help the original dev necessarily, but helping those that might come to use the software later.

Not sure that’s how good insulation works, if it’s not keeping heat out, then it’s not that good of an insulation.

But I think I get your point, it’s good enough so that winter time heating doesn’t escape faster than it is produced, problem then being that nothing offers cooling in the summer months. Still ameliorated by better insulation.

Besides my experience of Central Europe is that insolvency ain’t all that good…

Æðislegt! Gaman að heyra!

Yeah the friend thing is always tricky but if you’re open (as you clearly are) there’s always a community to be found with some tenacity!

Glad to have you 🤘

Some things never change

That kind off decision really should come from the gameplay mechanics you want to incorporate. I’d say the only reason to pick now would be to limit scope and stick with your comfort zone. I’d encourage you to not decide right now, but try to make the roughest prototypes you can of each, trying to establish the base of your gameplay loop in each “orientation” and then compare the two and see which has the feel you want to go for

Hahah, yeah, don’t know, just how I was raised I guess. My fridge came with one of those egg racks and I like having them out the box ready-to-go, plus it doesn’t harm them and they should stay fresher for marginally longer.

Edit: Also probably helps my heat gradient on those perfect runny yolks but set whites!

Haha, yeah totally get that! Also, how did I forget poached!! Okay, those tie over-easy for me

Lol, 60g healthy european chonkers, straight from the fridge into boiling water, then ice bath right after (if more than 2-3 eggs i’ll go a tad shorter because of post-cook thermal load)

Whites firm and yolks perfectly runny, sliced in two with maldon salt to top. Perfection in two bites.

Don’t discriminate based on entropy level, but each level has a best in class:

Low: Soft boiled (8:30 sec)

Medium: Over easy

High: Propper fluffy scramble (10% butter, constant whisk)
