Intel seems to be making all the right moves. I'm excited to see what Pat Gelsinger can do over the next 5 years (I'm long INTC).

I know you joke, but with the existing costs of fab manufacturing I wouldn't expect that using a diamond substrate would take up that much of the cost.

New diamond manufacturing processes include chemical vapor deposition, which would make integrating with fab processes pretty feasible. I'd guess it depends on weighing the performance graphene can offer vs the cost increase over silicon.

I've tried it a few times for couple of weeks at a time, and it is really difficult. I inevitably enable scripts after a few weeks.

It's just so tedious to do by hand, although it's nice to browse without jarring changes to the page as you load.

It would be great if there were some kind of community powered block list that adhered to some kind of standard. Probably easier said than done

Wow, this sounds really cool!

What is the main way you create/edit the list items? Is it manual, automated, etc?

Could you describe the way you use it to learn new things?

I really like the philosophy behind this--seems quite elegant

There is a difference between holding a view that isn't "in vogue" and inciting violence. To pretend otherwise is disingenuous and ignorant.

That's exactly what this app from UC Berkeley does

To have a qualified opinion that carries any weight, yes.

Are you a pharmaceutical research scientist?

I was surprised at the price point as well

The heart of it is that you can manipulate the AST as you use it - the structure of the language is itself data which can be acted upon. It makes for good metaprogramming which some people really like.

Oh, come on, they can't help it! It's best not to punish their natural behavior

First line of the paper:

> Direct control of the pupillary musculature is deemed impossible (Loewenfeld, 1993).

Also, from the abstract, they tested to rule out "increases in arousal by increased mental effort". This is a different phenomenon than what you are discussing.

Congratulations to Julia Computing!

For what it's worth, I find that tiktok leaves me much more fulfilled than something like twitter or HN or reddit, which can all be quite toxic. To be sure, you can go overboard, but there are a lot of interesting perspectives. It's easy to find people with really interesting hobbies or cool projects

Subjectively, I appreciate my running routine because it's so meditative. I obviously can't say what the brain waves might look like, but there are so many physical cadences that create a nice synchrony: heart beats, steps, breaths.

I attempted an undergraduate degree in the US and dropped out after 2 years because I struggled in the context and hadn't learned the discipline I needed to get through each semester.

Since then, I've become so enthusiastic about academia in large part because of sci-hub. For all my interests I can find papers and access them with no institutional affiliation. I've learned how I learn, gained valuable research skills, and am planning on re-applying to finish a bachelor's degree!

Although I come from a place of privilege I owe a great debt to sci hub. I can't imagine how critical it is for those outside my bubble, where institutions might not have great access in the first place.

I have a Fitbit, and I've had to shut off as many of the notifications as I can. I really hope the trend goes toward simplicity rather than cutesy rewards and notifications..

It is quite simple to do the same in Julia

> Nodes, not interfaces, have IP addresses, so you can use multiple paths.

SCTP has multi-path routing, no?

Well, one is a mismanaged entertainment product and the other is fraud against healthcare patients.

I believe Pythonista is interpreted, not compiled, and outside of Apple's Swift app you are not able to run compiled code

Same. I wouldn't need to give it a second thought. Such an amazing piece of hardware

Hey Matt!

I've interacted with you on twitter before, but I wanted to thank you again for your work, it has impacted me greatly.

One of the first mathematics papers I ever read was your paper on Gödel hashes. Coming from a patchwork self-taught software background it opened my eyes to just how much more there was to CS than "writing code". So, so much more. I still have a copy in my desk! I had dropped out of the U of U's CS program, and this was the first thing that really made me question my decision.

I've also admired your work in with Bertrand and I'm hopeful at the legacy it will leave, and at the future of precision medicine.

Thanks!

Caleb

Interesting--I have the 3rd gen X1 Yoga and have issues with the touch screen, and that is only fixed by shutting and reopening the lid. Running Arch Linux. Bummer that there are still dumb issues like this

Amazon is not the only cloud provider. Parler could have just as easily been a customer of Microsoft or Google

Here is an update for January 8:

Second this. I've used the Android app for ages and it's always been a pleasure to use. As an Android dev myself I can really appreciate the performance and polish.

I'm sorry you have to see your work go like this. Best of luck to you!

Fourth paragraph in the article:

> Two of the people said that the breaches are connected to a broad campaign that also involved the recently disclosed hack on FireEye, a major U.S. cybersecurity company with government and commercial contracts.

The answer to your question is not straightforward, but it is not a definite "no". Here is an interesting (albeit amateur) discussion on the subject on Stack Exchange: https://cs.stackexchange.com/questions/26049/is-there-a-conn...
