From recollection, I believe, "The Book of Why", https://a.co/d/aYehsnO, is the general audience introduction to Pearl's approach to causality. "Causality: Models, Reasoning and Inference", https://a.co/d/6b3TKhQ, is…
Haha, Yup, I've done exactly that. If the menu was dark, I'd try to pinch zoom in. I briefly felt like a baby trying to figure out the world again.
I'm not really a gamer, but I experienced something maybe similar with the ipad. When I first got one, of course, I was reading news and swiping away and it was completely natural. Then I'd go to a restaurant and when…
Technically correct, the best kind of correct.
I don't recall Maple Leaf Rag in the movie, but Solace and the Entertainer by Joplin are there. Solace in particular is magnificent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qr2n2PnaC2Y https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsFGcPujqKE
Incidentally, I know of a few people, friends of my parents, that have gotten a shunt for NPH. They suffered from one of the 3 "W" symptoms of NPH, wet, wobbly, wackiness, that you're certainly aware of. One had a…
Yeah, the eargasm ones do get a bit itchy and warm after a while. I’ll check out the ones with custom molds. Thanks for the suggestion.
I can't help with tinnitus itself, but I highly recommend "Eargasm High-fidelity Ear plugs", or similar devices, to help prevent further damage. They work really well to dampen loud sounds and, importantly, they let…
Well, crap. My mom complained about tendon damage issues after taking Cipro. I don't remember which tendons, probably legs, but I don't think she ever felt recovered from that. She probably only got generic warning…
We (or at least I) may base our estimates on the happy-path. That is, I can see how to solve a problem in the common case. But as I code, I encounter the myriad of error cases, exceptions to the common problems, and…
I'll add my anecdata. I'm dark skinned and an engineer, so sunlight and me are strangers at best. I've taken 5000 IU/day (with vitamin K2) and have my blood levels tested every year. I don't remember what my serum…

I second this recommendation for Insight Timer. I just use it as a timer that’s nicely customized for meditation, though it has guided talks and recordings that others may find useful. The timer is MUCH better than the…
As another commenter noted, there's a general internet standard defined already for cryptographically timestamping and signing digital artifacts, like JARs, PDFs, dotNet assemblies, and many others.…
I thought this was really interesting and a fun read, like something you'd see in a sidebar in a magazine. I like the style. It reads like something that Spock, Commander Data or the HAL 9000 would say, which IMO is a…
Maybe it was in the Free Solo movie or other interviews, but I thought he said that his route during Free Solo was a difficulty level of about 7/10 for him. So he was comfortable enough that it was not the hardest climb…
Interesting, thanks for the info. I was always somewhat concerned about the abundance of critical raw materials for ARC or other fusion projects. I had assumed that the rare-earth elements in the REBCO tape, e.g.…
I added a link above to a good talk from Dennis Whyte. I think it will help address your question about the additional engineering issues in a commercial reactor based on ARC. In short, from my basic understanding,…
Ah, yes, I understand what you meant with your wording. Proof-of-concept by 2025, and commercialization after that.
I think this take is too skeptical to apply to all the startups. For all the talks from CFS I've seen, they've been very measured and sober about the viability of near-term fusion. The game changer here is not very new…
I've seen various youtube videos from their employees and CEO. From what I remember, Dennis Whyte (head of the fusion lab at MIT and CFS cofounder) says you need about Q>5 at least, to make fusion economically viable.…
No ones mentioned the Dygma Raise, yet. I HIGHLY recommend them. It has a great solid metal build that doesn't flex. It's very compact. And it has hot-swappable switches which are very easy to replace. That was…
