Um. Is it possible you've never noticed that links work with a single click?

Give it a try, it's wild.

You're welcome :)

But how do you discover which specialist you need to see?

That's where AI currently looks really exciting for medicine, to me at least. An AI can have superhuman breadth of knowledge: even if it's not great at being a doc it can know as much as ten not-great docs.

Good to know, thanks :)

It applies equally to the human brain, with the structure of the brain being the "rule book" and the mechanical process being the laws of physics. All computation is mechanical at its core, it's when it starts to create surprising results that things get interesting.

Is pronounced roughly "suh luh muh", three quick syllables.

"Si" means death, "le" is the "in the past" tag word, and "me" is the "question" tag word.

So a more literal translation would be: "Dead yet?"

See the Doctor Who episode "Extremis" for a creepier take on the idea :)

I think the limit really is something like 1000 writes of the total capacity on a consumer drive.

Apparently this is also expressed as the number of full writes you can do per day within the warranty period; it's less than one on a consumer drive.

An SSD has a max lifetime write volume ... search for TBW ... you could store all writes, not just daily copies, in 1000Tb.

What a coincidence, I also still read Slashdot :)

Mostly no. There are a relatively small number of simple symbols that you could argue are pictures, such as "person", "fire", "field", "water". But almost all symbols are compounds: you scale/squash multiple simpler symbols then combine to form a new one.

Sometimes the compound pieces contribute just the pronunciation with nothing about meaning. So for example "mother" is "woman" + "horse" because "horse" has the desired pronunciation "ma", not for the meaning or to make a picture.

It's Google's internal IDE and has been for a while.

They are talking about AI features in Cider.

Hah, exactly.

If you have to just trust the company doing the checking, they haven't done it right. It should be verifiable all the way down.

I've been a fan of Dart for over a decade, I haven't used Flutter much but if I was building an app it's obviously where I would start :)

WFH is great for the planet, too.

Going to try hard to stay "fully remote". Just doing my part...

If you're going to spend 30000 hours typing then surely it's worth some investment: to speed it up a bit, make fewer mkstakes, be more comfortable, avoid RSI.

Touch typing is only one thing you could do. If you will type a lot then I recommend trying different mechanical kryboards and layouts until you find what works best for you.

I use a keyboardio 100 with an Apple Magic Trackpad between the two halves instead of a mouse. While coding, the transition to the trackpad is quicker and easier on the wrist than a mouse would be.

In terms of layout, I think my top two features are home row mods and chording for symbols and arrows. I don't think it really adds speed but for comfort and RSI prevention I think minimizing finger reaches and wrist moves is important.

Lots to try, some of it you will probably like :)
