Does this happen often in the US?

I mean often enough that folks happen to know the legality of it?

In which case I find it extremely frightening that one could be sitting on their porch, minding their own business, browsing HN, and then get unexpectedly head-shotted by a meteorite.

OP strikes me as quite childish. I’m guessing he’s quite young, nothing wrong with that.

And yeah, the circumstances aren’t great (the stressful move to SF in particular). Tough break!

I’m no expert at this and was wondering what you meant by the following:

> In real organisms behavior may be controlled by short or long term outcomes, and may oscillate between this "optimization" based on schedules

Could you perhaps provide an example that would help me understand what you mean?

Thanks for the insightful comment either way.

For those of you that are wondering, Mitch Hedburg was a relatively famous stand-up comedian whose special went viral.

In said special was this classic:

“I like an escalator because an escalator can never break; it can only become stairs. There would never be an 'escalator temporarily out of order' sign, only 'escalator temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience.’”

RIP indeed.

It was OpenGL that got me into graphics and games programming from a young age - NeHe's tuts in particular (anyone remember those?).

Are there similar introductory tuts for WebGL?

Hi - thanks for the insightful comment - could you please expand on the above?

Genuinely curious :)

I've done some research online, and layouts like the Habit Tracker look pretty cool.

So I figured I'd ask here on HN too, as I'm sure lots of you have devised some interesting journaling frameworks! ^_^

Hopefully the experts here can offer insight. The above is just my hunch and I’m not a specialist in this field.

You got a picture?

I like the idea of standardising my book choice for the long run, and Moleskine is easily available in my part of the world.

I currently have 3 different journals on my desk as I type this. One is an A4 hard cover. The next one is a slightly smaller soft cover. And the last one is an A5 hard cover.

I'm exploring with all 3 because the long-term collector in me wants to settle on 1, and then stick to it for multiple journals to come.

I'm curious which journal size and cover type the passionate journalers in here have opted for and why.

Thanks ^_^

I wonder if open source / open weight models will reach the point where we can run them locally on our mobile devices (for free), even if they're slightly inferior to the proprietary pay-as-you-use online models.

I know very little about this stuff. My inner optimist kinda hopes that the tech will continue to advance and become increasingly commoditised, to the point that open source locally run models are as good as the advanced proprietary models of a year ago. So that even if the open source models lag the proprietary models, they're still pretty great. Perhaps we're already there but I wouldn't know.

Anyhow thank you for the insights :-)

I mean from a financial and sustainability standpoint, assuming they’re equally powerful as their proprietary counterparts.

I guess I’m trying to understand the economics of it.

And I suspect that one day we might even think of LLMs as "low tech AI", assuming we move on to more advanced forms of AI (here's hoping).
