Why does the article make it sound like cooling a data center results in constant water loss? Is this not a closed loop system?
I’m imagining a giant reservoir heat sink that runs throughout a complex to pull heat out of the surrounding environment where some liquid evaporates and needs to be replenished. But first of all we have more efficient liquid coolants, and second that would be a very lazy solution.
I wonder if they’ve considered geothermal for new data centers. You can run a geothermal loop in reverse and use the earth as a giant heat sink. It’s not water in the loop, it’s refrigerant, and it only needs to be replaced when you find the efficiency dropping, which can take decades.
If you read the manual for your microwave you’ll learn a lot about what it is capable of. My Panasonic microwave not only has a sensor cook mode for popcorn, but you can specify the weight of the bag and you can even add or subtract 10-30 seconds to dial it in prior to starting.
I recommend microwaves that have inverters in them, as well as moisture sensors.
I know someone personally who can finish multiple thousand-page books in a single day, I’ve always been jealous. They are now a librarian, and I’ve asked them many of the same questions you’re asking.
I recommend getting:
the Libby app (and several library cards)
a Kindle (or similar device)
purchase fresh paperbacks
Figure out which format works best for you.
For me, as I’ve gotten older I’ve found that audiobooks allow me to be the most productive, while consuming books. I still have books I will read on paperbacks, but they allow me to take risks on books I wouldn’t want to dedicate as much time and effort toward.
I have nothing productive to add to your shower thought, so here is evidence of Trump in the ring shaving middle class heads. https://youtu.be/5NsrwH9I9vE
I have an M3 Max that does this, but only when I plug in two monitors at once over Thunderbolt. It doesn’t always happen either, haven’t figured out exactly what is causing it. I know my M1 is only capable of a single external monitor, so part of my suspects their multi monitor support is just poorly implemented over the latest TB spec.
Using M1 with a thunderbolt dock doesn’t do it, so I know it’s not the monitor. Plus switching out one monitor for another doesn’t fix it.
In the past to debug this problem I’ve used BetterDisplay
While it’s true you can’t do it in WASM directly, there are frameworks that interoperate between WASM and JS, such as Yew
One only needs to create an interface between them, since WASM is capable of calling JS functions. DOM manipulation then becomes as simple as calling a function in your language of choice, such as with web-sys
To be fair to all those people that misunderstand it, they are marketing it as Artificial Intelligence, which it isn’t. So one could argue it is in fact a lie, as most marketing seems to be these days. It’s difficult for us humans to see the difference between intelligence and an “alright prediction of what might come next”. Such as when we struggle to tell the difference between the truth and a lie someone told us. It can be deceiving.
Since marketers have bastardized the term, and we’ve begun using AGI in place of the old meaning, confusion is only going to get worse until existing LLMs become somewhat boring, and marketing latches onto some other trend.
With that said, I find the utility of this thing we now call AI to be pretty useful for my own needs, but that’s not stopping people from trying to fit this square shaped solution into circle shaped holes.
Generally what I’ve seen work well in my career and is consistent across thousands of devs I’ve worked with:
~/[whateverFolderNameYouWillRemember]/[organization]/[project]
I recommend when it comes to finding things to just use a fuzzy finder, such as fzf.
I’ve switched between android and iOS every couple of years since 2008. My recommendation: just keep using iOS.
The experience is more polished, it’s less difficult to figure out what to buy. You don’t have to worry about Google doing more insane shit, like harvesting and selling all your data, or getting rid of a product you’ve relied on for years. Not to mention my older iPhones work more reliably than my older Android phones do, so even from a support perspective Apple is the better choice.
My only gripe with iOS is that Safari is locked to the OS version you’ve installed, so when you stop receiving phone updates, your browser gets stuck in the past too.
BuildJet is a YCombinator backed startup with a ton of attention, and a million extra to burn on top of what investors have already given them. They would have to royally fuck this up at this point, most people would be so lucky to have the opportunity they have here.
