Thank you! I’ll try this out. I’ve been mostly using it while playing around with new things rather than to expand scaffolding on existing stuff.

However what I find frustrating is that it so confidently gives you garbage sometimes. I was trying to configure some stuff in docker that needed a very extensive yaml config. It confidently gave me flags and keys to accomplish what I wanted that looked logical and fit in with rest of the style but simply did not exist.

I’ve found it okay to get a general feel for stuff but I’ve been given insidiously bad code. Functions and data structures that look similar enough to real stuff but are deeply wrong or non+existent.

Sure :)

You’re missing the larger point. It isn’t about individuals.

If your parents and grandparents were from an ethnic/social/other group that did not have access to resources, then there’s less chance that you grow up in a household that values education or have resources like food, time with parents and caring adults, emotional support and, financial security and so on. These affect your academic success irrespective of how talented or smart you might be.

Providing better access to higher education for people from such groups is a way to make sure that their children don’t grow up in the same environment and the problem is solved over generations.

Such measures of equity are always stop gap measures to address problems until you find grass root level solutions. Right now say protected groups might be first Nations or African Americans. In the future that might change to immigrants from Ukraine or Honduras.

The revolutionary solution, not necessarily communist. Like Boston tea party and what followed

But you can reframe it. People don’t have equal mobility but everyone has an equal right to access a place, so you have stairs and ramps. You can’t make everything a ramp or stair to create equality.

Well, I have a MiniPC running a VyOS router and the only time I’ve seen it even break a sweat is when I have to run openvpn or wireguaurd with lots of throughput which is probably because of the encryption involved.

I’m curious as to how the wireless access points part of the network work. I have no problem saturating my bandwidth on wired connections but on wireless, I do get choking when say 3-4 devices try to stream 4k.

Seconding your opinion about lemmy :) Do you think you could write up that you did? I would be interested in reading. Found this article on ars as well:

I’ll be checking out netburn.

Multi client test seems better honestly. I end up running 3-4 iperfs from different clients to a wired server to see how the bandwidth chokes. I wonder how it will be if one of the clients are running the iperf server as well.

Real life workloads like 4k and VoIP with multiple clients seem much more realistic and representative.

Your map made me think how interesting US would be if there were 4 major political parties. Maybe no one will win the presidential election 🤔

Oh fuck you. I’m going to insert this in place of 20 in some formula and see people have breakdowns.

Geometric interpretation of integration is really fun, it’s the analytic interpretation that most people (and I) find harder to understand.

If you work in numerically solving integrals using computers, you realise that it’s all just adding tiny areas.

I finally understand what divergent integrals are intuitively when I encountered one while trying to do a calculation on a computer.

Incompleteness doesn’t come as a huge surprise when your learn math in an axiomatic way rather than computationally. For me the treacherous part is actually knowing whether something is unprovable because of incompleteness or because no one has found a proof yet.

Unfortunately they’ve been pushing the release date of this battery forward for the last two three years or so. I believe they have some core technology but haven’t been able to overcome some critical issues.

Not just that, the first lawyers he approached scammed him I think.

The way you have written this, it feels like trying to defeat the boss in a video game.

Maybe the just disappear like in witness protection and this dude didn’t want to leave his son alone? It’s too far fetched though. Given all the questionable things Oceangate did, independent verification of the implosion sound waves and finding the actual debris, it is extremely improbable it was staged.

You assume they understand genetics and evolution.

This seems to be the least crazy of all the ones here so far. Plausible but very improbable.

But isn’t using wanker as as insult sex negative?! /s

P. S. I’ve always wanted to say ‘You bloody wanker’ after seeing British television as a child but haven’t had a chance so far.
