I'm not the best at math, but I am really glad, even though it was gruelling, that I made it through all of my math. Linear is annoying but important. Discrete as well, its just those little things that seemed to help things make sense. Calc III and physics III were rewarding. It was the light at the end of the tunnel of II that wrapped it all up and let you use the tools I spent the previous 6 years learning XD. They're both so practical and real world IMO.

Yes. This also goes with most services as well. For example, my rate limits are targed for end-users. I can't really know the difference between a central server proxying requests on behalf of a bunch of users or a single end-user. In this case, hosters will either need a contract for a bigger pipe from relays, or they will need to keep relays synced on-prem.

Wait, you just got a BS CS right? Doesn't that include a few years of calc? An LLM you like with a system prompt tuned to how you learn, and at least one course outline from a university you trust. Nearly all universities require professors to publish course outlines online on their course websites. Grab the syllibus and the textbook info and use the LLM as a tutor. They also often have tests, studyguides and homework available, especially course that just finished or will be starting up in the summer/fall semesters.

I gone down a little rabbit hole. So T10 forms and audit reports don't clearly show reported deductions, but I've yet to see, out of about a dozen public companies in the US, that hasn't paid about 25% in just income. That doesn't include corporate tax, capital gains, and whatever dozen taxes I'm forgetting as a company grows. Where does this whole big corpos don't pay their taxes thing coming from? Which companies am I missing? Is it all in the deductions? Or are people focused on revenue and want a cut of that?

This my opportunity to share that in 2019 somewhere, which took effect in 2023 California told diesel vehicle owners that they would not be able to register or renew their vehicles if they did not meet CARB emissions board standards which were adjusted to a minimum of 2016 CARB standards (which are the most strict in the US). Which meant that your older vehicle was almost certainly not able to pass the emissions testing. If you didn't know, you can't just buy an egr, dpf, and scr system and slap it into your vehicle. Swapping in a 2016+ powertrain with a healthy emissions system into your 1996 pickup would set you back something like 25-35k not including the fab work. Point is, it's not practical and, in reality, what happened was that the state refused re-registration so owner I worked with are driving them without government approval, or had to sell them off an purchase new, expensive headaches. Here is the exact bill. https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200SB210 CA is not the only state to flirt with these laws, working with the fed EPA to punish owners in some states. Id be happy to talk about CARB and cali's emissions standards. Virginia can force emissions tests and impound vehicles that police suspect have not been maintained or tampered, the can pull you over, and in some cases detain you. You can spend your whole life running from the government, they will eventually come for you. nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqun2rcnpe3j8ge6ws2z789gm8wcnn056wu734n6fmjrgmwrp58q3qydhwumn8ghj7argv4nx7un9wd6zumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgtcqyzake3apdr8jlutlhxf7ry9pt6zx0age4njqs2cljlcsn4dtt92usev7h89

If you are, and you rely on libsecp256k1, you can either link noscrypt dynamically to it (instead of building static) or you can possibly, if you statically link noscrypt to libsecp256k1, you can just link against noscrypt and save yourself some space. Not sure how you want to play it. I like to see how libnostr-c has matured lately btw!

Noscrypt has some changes staged for library updates, these changes remove all of the unused source code of the vendored copy of libsecp256k1, most was already removed, but trimmed further. I also removed headers of unused modules. Noscrypt symbols are unchanged, and the only symbol change to the libsecp256k1 ABI would be disabling the musig module. If, for whatever reason, you depended on noscrypt for those libsecp256k1 symbols, they will be gone in v0.1.14. Same goes if you relied on those headers for whatever reason (the modules were never enabled, so linking would have failed anyway). https://github.com/VnUgE/noscrypt/compare/develop...feature/no-ref/update-libsecp

This past year I'm not sure, but I do know it was going so well, they didn't have enough work for them and started pushing out older agents. To be fair from the people I know, like most things, the job is hyped but your actual assignments are terrible. You work night shift outside some power plants until you die... A lot of them left because their assignments were just so far from what they were promised and the private sector offered them much better opportunities. Gotta remember that these are all college educated, many if not most with graduate degrees, with training, getting stuck working 3rd shift moving every couple years, for 65-75k and $150k in debt and a baby or two on the way. They tell me the job has it's perks, but if you aren't of the special minority it's just lacks in the opportunities promised for which the private sector still thrives apparently.

I joined it a few years ago, and not only were the owners/devs against nostr, but a large crowd of stackers also didn't want to be part of nostr. I talked a bit about it back then, but I think they're pretty parallel. Their platform is a centralized forum site, moderated, single interface etc, nostr is antithetical. Regardless they can coexist like any other app/site/forum, and people still choose to use it instead of nostr. They have a nostr login, I'm not sure how much more we'd want to integrate it before it just becomes nostr. All of them could choose to be in both places, and they don't want to be.

Maybe my world is different, but I see more people over 50 glued to their phones are in conversations about what they just saw on their phone (news) than I see people in their 20s and early 30s. People my age seem to be dropping it a little more lately which I've been quite happy of. Saving pictures instead of posting them, having chats in public. Idk i've been somewhat optimistic about this lately. Except I think they're still damaged from it. So they're not staring at devices, but they still probably aren't having conversation. And to be fair, before judging, who really enjoyed small talk 12 years ago (or whenever this ad was made) anyway. Lets not act like small talk with strangers moved the needle. 99% of social engagement with strangers doesn't yield anything more than a hello. We can still smile and say hi, but we don't need to talk about the weather we're both experiencing, or what happened at last nights game. They were people you were never going to see again. I can be quite chatty so this isn't me but I can understand why. IMO, younger gens want more meaningful interactions and don't see the value (that was never there) in one-off waiting room chats. You go to a bar, restaurant (not fast food), get on the water (beach, boat, docks), whatever "social" type of location, 20-30 y/os people aren't glued to their phones, their laughing and moving around. Maybe taking more photos or videos than they once were. As usual I think these are the extremes, touching grass has me thinking otherwise.

Fun computer hardware fact. System memory (DRAM) consumes more power than you'd expect. It's gotten way better over the years thankfully. On some machines I had, doubling the number DDR3 modules could consume 120 watts more power. The more memory in use by the software, the more power it consumes for refreshing (and scrubbing on enterprise systems). Depending on the system were talking a couple watts to a few 10s of watts. So remember devs, keep memory consumption down and help users save money on their electric bill.

That makes way more sense. Unfortunate, but makes sense. I did notice the pricing now too, I guess they focused so hard on data infra, tcp/ip is cheaper, more secure, and arguably more reliable., so they probably want to phase it out. There is a good chance I'm going to switch to a data-only SIM some point in the future, because my SIP provider has free sms and unlimited minutes in the US. None of which i really use, but I get it "own" my number instead of it being tied to a SIM or device. The data sims are going for like $20/mo vs the $75 or whatever legacy providers are charging these days.

I wish it was that simple. I don't think they're all to "protect yourself". In the use sometimes domestic laws, like for dangerous gun owners, for example would allow the police to enter a home and seize a persons guns. Sometimes used if you're considered a danger to yourself as well. Maybe not the best example, but that's the nuance. So long as the state exists, and the state write laws that are broadly enforced - If you're asking, there is a guarantee that the only person Im harming is myself, then broadly speaking, no. I oppose any law that is meant to "protect me from myself" because it's often enforced with more force and violence. If I don't stop smoking and I resist, am I criminal? Will I be starting down the barrel of a gun? Probably. Then the answer is no, smoking is a far less violent act then the state enforcing these types of laws. The problem always becomes the dissidents in this case. How many sitting in prisons, homes raided, or victims of state violence because they disagree?
