It's the same with tough on crime. "What, you want criminals to keep getting away with it?!"

> The primary trade-off observed is the increased calculation time for OLS and SVD steps. Consequently, the next phase of this work involves implementing these operations within custom Triton kernels to amortize latency. By viewing the cache through the lens of reconstruction fidelity rather than just memory capacity, we can develop more sustainable architectures for long-context inference.

Reading between the lines, the increase in latency was so significant that they didn't want to include it before they had a chance to try and optimize the problem away first.

Still interesting research. Hope they get good results!

Your reasoning relies on this being true:

> [CRQCs] will be slow, expensive, and power hungry for at least a decade

How could you know that? What if it was 5 years? 1 year? 6 months?

I predict there will be an insane global pivot once Q-day arrives. No nation wants to invest billions in science fiction. Every nation wants to invest billions in a practical reality of being able to read everyone's secrets.

It's not theoretical either. You can buy vegan dairy products made from this method today.

Sidenote: is that Clancy Brown doing the voice over on the 'Home' commercial?

I have the technical background to write Latex and Typst documents but I honestly didn't want the headache. Plus I'm the type to futz with styling all day long instead of putting down actual content. RenderCV was simple to use and did exactly what I wanted.

I have the power to do it. Why would I not?

As a PR reviewer I frequently pull down the code and run it. Especially if I'm suggesting changes because I want to make sure my suggestion is correct.

Do other PR reviewers not do this?

Though I think it's more of a hobby language. The last commit was > 1 year ago.

The 2nd link seems reasonable to me? Why does a study about 25k workers in Denmark (11 occupations, 7k workplaces) not count as evidence? If there was a strong effect to be found globally, it seems likely to be found in Denmark too.

Also, what about the other links? The discussions about the strange accounting and lack of profitability seem like evidence as well.

If anything, this article struck me as well-evidenced.

E.g. the debugging question: I use all of those methods to some degree. But I "think logically about the code" (or whatever that choice was) nearly 100% of the time, so I felt compelled to pick that one even though I didn't feel like it represented me all that well.

They're selling a meat replacement. Replacing the meat in my diet with their product does not work for my goals without additional planning to compensate. Therefore it's not a good replacement for me. A criticism need not apply in all cases to be valid.

> I'd still be able to hit 150g/day at least without really trying.

What are your calorie goals? If you're in a surplus, maybe. But I'm currently in a deficit with 150g protein / 1600 calorie. I do not find that I can hit this goal "without really trying", _especially_ without protein powder.

And to clarify, it's 100% possible to hit my goals eating vegetarian/vegan. But with meat in my diet it's much easier because their high protein content gives me more flexibility with the rest of the diet. If I wanted to do it vegetarian, I wouldn't use beyond meat because it'd be even harder than other options.

As someone doing weightlifting, this is the primary reason I don't bother with vegetarian meats. They actually taste pretty good IMO, but they don't offer nutritional benefits commensurate with animal meat.

It's a shame, really. I'd gladly incorporate them if I could get a similar protein : calorie ratio.

I'm much more interested in how much the average student has had a phone to distract them during their lifetime. For the incoming 2025 class of 18 year olds, the iPhone came out the year they were born. So potentially 100%. I expect that plus the availability of LLMs is a deadly combo on an engaged student body.
