41,808,001 | comment | pa7x1 | 2024-10-11T09:58:18 | null | What you are missing...<p>Physics is practiced by hand, pen and paper or chalk and blackboard. There is no IDE or auto-completion.<p>The short hands, abbreviations, and obscure syntax raise the difficulty to enter into the field but simplify its practice a lot. In fact, it would be nightmarishly verbose if you had to use more explicit terms to the point of making it almost not feasible.<p>Furthermore, the complexity of learning a few shorthands is incomparable with understanding the underlying concepts. Just because you name things in a more verbose manner and used a more explicit type system you wouldn't be any closer to understanding what any of this means. The effort of learning a short-hand notation to express a concept that takes years of advanced math to grasp is negligible in comparison with the speed up it offers day to day.<p>The notation is not what is stopping you from understanding it. | null | null | 41,805,217 | 41,753,471 | null | null | null | null |
41,808,002 | comment | sandworm101 | 2024-10-11T09:59:11 | null | On an individual level, we all have a variety of hammers over our heads. Cancer has killed far more people prematurely than nuclear weapons. Something like 500,000 people a year are murdered. Traffic/bicycle/pedestrian accidents also kill more than nuclear weapons. Even compared to a once-in-a-century nuclear war that perhaps kills a billion people, cancer will kill roughly a billion in the next century anyway. So, for the rational/selfish person, the nuclear threat isn't worth worrying about. | null | null | 41,807,938 | 41,807,681 | null | [

41,808,010 | comment | rcxdude | 2024-10-11T10:00:28 | null | Not very easily. Firstly, the power involved in these systems is massive, making any inductor or capacitor you put in very expensive (and bulky). Secondly, filtering it out may reduce the sound, but still will have some part of the circuit switching at that frequency, and with the power involved, some part of the inductor will see that and vibrate accordingly. Modern power electronics generally avoids this problem primarily by pushing the switching frequency higher than human hearing (which also has other advantages, like reducing the inductance and capacitance involved). Generally the higher-power the device, the physically bigger it is, and the slower you can switch it without melting it, so bigger systems are stuck at lower frequencies (this is something that's improving as technology develops: so there's the other factor that most train stock is quite old and the designs older still, meaning they switch even slower than your new laptop, even taking everything else into account). | null | null | 41,802,452 | 41,757,808 | null | null | null | null |

Very powerful.<p>As a teenager we also visited concentration camps on a school trip, and a survivor joined the trip from Norway to Germany. We got to know him a bit during the week long trip, and there was a session where he told his story. I'll never forget this, and I think it affects me to this day.<p>Soon we will have no Time Witnesses left.<p>Edit: I remembered a very specific anecdote he told, about how him randomly having learned to knit helped when in a concentration camp, as some officer wanted something to be made, and he then could sit inside and do that instead of working himself to death in the quarry. Based on this I managed to find his name again now.<p>Haakon Sørbye, thanks for telling us your story. | null | null | 41,807,813 | 41,807,681 | null | null | null | null |

I'm from Switzerland, I much rather have trains and well timed buses.<p>Buses already exists and paying drivers isn't actually that big a problem. Society can easily pay for that, if you take into account the reduction in investment and cost you have from other road use.<p>Musk promise of 'less parking lots' can already be easily achieved with technology from 1960. Its not an engineering problem, its social problem.<p>Trains, trams, buses, bikes and walking is far cheaper and more efficient in every measurable way then fancy robotaxis even if they worked, witch they don't really.<p>Can you imagine the horror of a large city where most people each use an individual vehicle? That just dystopia.<p>An small autonomous bus has some uses but at best its a small part of a much larger transport system.<p>The US being so obsessed with robotaxis is just a consequence of 70 years of horrible road design and land usage and city planning. | null | null | 41,805,706 | 41,805,706 | null | null | null | null |

A break like this will force lots of python users to avoid upgrading to 3.17, jettison packages they may want to keep using, or deal with the hassle of patching unmaintained dependencies on their own.<p>For those Python users for whom writing python is the core of their work that might be fine. For all the other users for whom python is an foreign, incidental, but indispensable part of their work (scientists, analysts, ...) the choice is untenable. While python can and should strive to be a more 'serious', 'professional' language, it _must_ have respect and empathy for the latter camp. Elevating something that should be a linter rule to a language change ain't that."<p>Strongly phrased, but planned obsolescence in a language is <i>really</i> expensive. You're basically quietly rotting the work of your users, and they will hate you for it.<p>I note that C# basically hasn't deprecated any of the <i>language</i> itself, the dotnet core transition was a big change to the <i>runtime</i>.

41,808,033 | comment | scotty79 | 2024-10-11T10:05:42 | null | > Hence the validity of the "do nothing" option.<p>It's hard. If you knew you are doomed that would be a valid option. But you can't know that even though it's likely. And on a slim chance you are not doomed, choosing to do nothing is pretty much impossible unless you already wanted to die and suffer unitl then. As I said, usually you don't randomly find out about tumor in your brain. Usually you learn about it because of some progressing symptoms. So you decide on a treatment based on those symptoms. Doing nothing when you suffer and something can be done to help with that is very hard despite risks involved and even ultimate pointlessness. You don't make decisions in those situations based on some theoretical existential framework. You make them on practical grounds. And "do nothing" is almost never a result. "Do nothing" is just an option you might regret not takin with hindsight or an option you might consider ahead of time entirely theoretically. In practice this option is almost never chosen and it's not because of doctors comunicate badly and could do better. It's because of practicality and need for maintaining illusion of agency over your life. It's very hard to belive your life will really end even though you know it's true. Doing something really is no brainer, bacause alternative is not really do nothing. It's lie down, suffer and most likely die suffering progressively more and you would have to consciously choose that. Rarely anone does.<p>> What is this even supposed to mean? Statistics is a useful tool. You're denying it with no argument. "I don't like statistics."<p>I love statistics. But statistics by its very nature can't predict what will be an outcome of a single coin toss you are about to do. There's nothing that can't predict that singular result. The only thing you really know is that neither head, nor tails is impossible. You life for you isn't a statistic. It's singular. | null | null | 41,806,518 | 41,786,768 | null | null | null | null |

2.The above suggestion is about how to sharing with others.So it's good to procide a way to spread,e.g. every documents made can be viewed from a special url,if you want to make this be a platform.
3.Code blocks hightlighting.Suppose someone want to use teno like juptybook to share their research or other things,code highlight is the key for reading experience. | null | null | 41,798,477 | 41,798,477 | null | [

41,808,061 | comment | dplgk | 2024-10-11T10:09:56 | null | It seems appropriate, in this thread, to have ChatGPT provide the summary:<p>In The Prize: The Epic Quest for Oil, Money & Power, Daniel Yergin explains the boom-and-bust cycle in the oil industry as a recurring pattern driven by shifts in supply and demand. Key elements include:<p>1. Boom Phase: High oil prices and increased demand encourage significant investment in exploration and production. This leads to a surge in oil output, as companies seek to capitalize on the favorable market.<p>2. Oversupply: As more oil floods the market, supply eventually exceeds demand, causing prices to fall. This oversupply is exacerbated by the long lead times required for oil development, meaning that new oil from earlier investments continues to come online even as demand weakens.<p>3. Bust Phase: Falling prices result in lower revenues for oil producers, leading to cuts in exploration, production, and jobs. Smaller or higher-cost producers may go bankrupt, and oil-dependent economies suffer from reduced income. Investment in new production declines during this phase.<p>4. Correction and Recovery: Eventually, the cutbacks in production lead to reduced supply, which helps stabilize or raise prices as demand catches up. This sets the stage for a new boom phase, and the cycle repeats.<p>Yergin highlights how this cycle has shaped the global oil industry over time, driven by technological advances, geopolitical events, and market forces, while creating periods of both rapid growth and sharp decline. | null | null | 41,806,871 | 41,805,446 | null | [

Unless you define it to have some immeasurable spiritual quality to it which is obviously not experimentally discoverable and so of little use discussing here.<p>There is no need to bring in "spirituality" (at least, as commonly and colloquially understood) or "souls" into the picture - see for instance qualia, whose existence is self-evident, and yet are also not amenable to examination by external observers. Irrespective of how much you can pick and probe at the brain and measure wavelengths of light, there is "something it is like" to actually experience the phenomenon of "red", and this experience itself is not readily accessible to objective/quantitative methods.<p>> It's a typical case of a chaotic system. Perhaps innovations in the modeling of such complex systems (not too different from the advancements we're seeing in ML) will be the key to better insights into the mind.<p>I could be convinced that minds are ultimately emergent phenomena of plain physical and mechanical processes which are too frighteningly complicated for us to analyze with contemporary methods. | null | null | 41,807,969 | 41,780,328 | null | [

41,808,098 | comment | theanonymousone | 2024-10-11T10:16:45 | null | In an MoE model such as this, are all "parts" loaded in Memory at the same time, or at any given time only one part is loaded? For example, does Mixtral-8x7B have the memory requirement of a 7B model, or a 56B model? | null | null | 41,804,829 | 41,804,829 | null | [

If you want to keep status quo it's good to undercut someone in the cradle that could eventually take over your business.<p>So it might cost Meta pretty penny but it's a mitigation for existential risk.<p>If you climbed up to the top of wealth and influence ladder you should spend all you can to kick off the ladder. It's gonna be always worth it. Unless you still fall because it wasn't enough. | null | null | 41,806,743 | 41,805,446 | null | null | null | null |
