There are perfectly good reasons to sacrifice a goat to your USB drivers. Don’t let Reddit Atheists tell you otherwise.

I’ve found that that comic alone has reduced the instances of this sort of thing happening. Not completely, of course, but when people figure it out, they seem much more likely to post the solution. Randall may have single-handedly improved the Internet a few points with that one comic.

Still are, but like all aphrodisiacs, it’s really hard to test. A lot of sexual arousal happens in your brain, and the placebo effect is very strong.

Had an armchair hypothesis last night. Yeast makes alcohol, and we basically domesticated it on accident. Beer/wine making goes back to the neolithic (at least), and we’re in a symbiotic relationship with it.

That part is pretty well established science, but the the hypothesis goes that alcohol reduces human inhibitions, which makes us fuck more, which means more humans who want to continue making beer and wine with the secret helper, yeast.

But maybe that’s not right and verging on evo psych territory of a hypothesis that has no strong evidence beyond fitting some known facts.

Yeah, I think that’s the best that can be done right now.

It also leads to a different question: do we really need these fancy systems, or do we need a bunch of bash scripts with a cronjob or monitors to trigger the build?

Anybody who thinks running Windows is easier hasn’t tried to get Tensorflow working on Windows with GPU support.

In theory, it could run on a straight Windows build of Python, but nobody seems to have given that serious consideration. It must go through WSL, but that means passing through the GPU to WSL. When you Google how to do it, you’ll find three different approaches that have been taken over the years, only one of which is valid on modern setups. If you take one of the old approaches, you will likely twist your system in knots and need a complete reinstall to fix.

On Linux, you install the GPU drivers, compile Tensorflow with the GPU flags, and you’re done.

Normally, you don’t want to commit code unless it’s been at least minimally tested, and preferably more than that.

All the CI’s, however, force a workflow where you can only test it by committing the code and seeing if it works. I’m not sure how to fix that, but I see the problem.

That is some good looken bread.

I have a wooden bowl kinda like this, but I also inherited it. It’s kinda nice. Has care instructions somewhat similar to cast iron. Get everything off of it and cover it in oil.

I’ve used dark chocolate chips before, yes. I think they were Ghirardelli.

And no, not joking. Chocolate without the fat/sugar is bitter, and bitter flavors can add a lot if they’re mixed in correctly.

It’s not supposed to be sweet chocolate. It’s coco without the milk and sugar, and it will make almost any chili taste better.

That’s not completely off, but it should be dark chocolate, not milk chocolate or whatever M&M’s are made with now. A little dark chocolate is great in chili.

Plus, if you can get the right model, you can play PS2 and PS1 games on it. That’s a ridiculous library full of hidden gems.

I’ve been here since Windows 3.0. I’m not sure when this mythical not-shit Windows was. There were a few I could live with, but none that were good.

Economics is merely the study of how scarce goods are distributed. There are many ways to do that. Capitalists argue that their system is the most efficient, but even taking that claim at face value, efficiency alone isn’t the only measure. It also says little about how control of those resources consolidates power.

Can’t seem to get them from Democrats, either, so what’s your point?

1970s build?

Windows are terrible at efficiency. Yes, even modern ones with three panes and filled with argon. A building with minimal windows is generally going to have better thermal efficiency than one with lots of them, and that started to be really important during the 1970s oil crisis. The result was a bunch of schools like this that look like prisons.

If you get some local mural artists to paint the concrete in bright, whimsical images, it fixes a lot.

Since randomizing the list increases entropy, it could theoretically make your cpu cooler just before it destroys the universe.

You still have to check that it’s sorted, which is O(n).

We’ll also assume that destroying the universe takes constant time.
