> just look at the map

I have Google maps open on another tab. Could you clarify what should I be looking at?

The writers of such articles too need to put food on the table.

I am personally interested in the code amalgamation technique that SQLite uses[0]. It seems like a free 5-10% performance improvement as is claimed by SQLite folks. Be nice if he addresses it some in one of the sessions.

Eating cardamom as I read this. My go to spice to keep mouth busy and flavorful and stay away from junk food.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. What are your plans for the long weekend if you don't mind sharing.

Not the op but here is an example: TOKEN=$(kubectl describe secret -n kube-system $(kubectl get secrets -n kube-system | grep default | cut -f1 -d ' ') | grep -E '^token' | cut -f2 -d':' | tr -d '\t' | tr -d " ")

This pipeline may be significantly reduced by replacing cut's with awk, accommodating grep within awk and using awk's gsub in place of tr.

I used the regular version. Actually, I don't even know what is multiple-precision values -- will look it up.

I solved a few using AWK, fun: https://github.com/ketancmaheshwari/projecteuler

I am interested in quantitative / probabilistic analysis on your thesis. Where should I go look?

Does anyone know how to reliably use Firefox from command line to take screenshots? It used to work well a few years ago but now it does not. For one, it asks that Firefox is already running and I need to kill it. This is surprising -- why can't two Firefox processes run at the same time?

Is this true for the trained pilots as well?

I have no skin in the game and rarely code in C++. My answer is: no.

Somewhat relevant, I use this little script to open front page of NYTimes daily morning on my macbook:

d=$(date +%d)

m=$(date +%m)

y=$(date +%Y)

wget -q https://static01.nyt.com/images/$y/$m/$d/nytfrontpage/scan.p... && open ./scan.pdf

"Very few things are an immediate success". Wise words.

This may be a good starting point: https://linuxupskillchallenge.org/

Thank you for your thoughtful suggestions. They are actionable and practical. Much appreciated.

More towards ML-powered products and services.

I personally think planting more trees and coloring more surfaces white may be easier and cheaper.

Relevant, I run a workshop for negative results: https://error-workshop.org/

Could you elaborate. What law is broken if one do not donate used clothing in MA?

If you are curious, like me, as to what 'mitumba' means, it is simply a local word for used clothing. I thought it had some deeper cultural meaning.

I personally think being fair trumps being kind / nice / smart.

Looking at the map, I vaguely recall it is about the same location where the meteor struck that caused extinction of dinosaurs.

How would this be different if they all were physically in the same office? Would you stop by their office and tell them to do what you prefer them to be doing? If so, is it not possible to tell them remotely over a Zoom call?

I am curious to know, what would be the various advantages of living in TN vs CA that you speak of? Have you lived in both these states for substantial periods?

They could be three types on that dimension: 1. Freshly made and delivered locally on hourly scale; 2. Take and bake or fry perhaps same day; and 3. Frozen for longer term.

I find that desis and non-desis alike are samosa fans.

If you are on the fence on the topic of eating meat vs going vegan / vegetarian, this 2018 documentary might change your thoughts: https://watchdominion.org/

Warning: Some visuals may be disturbing.

I wanted to sell samosa on the internet. Would YC be a good place to seek funding for such a business?

Samosa because they are versatile across many dimensions: ingredients, taste, shelf-life, and can be easily made in a combinatorics space of these dimensions. They are kind of like how Bubba describes shrimp to Gump.

I once wondered if YC is a good platform for such a business?
