Negative temperatures are actually hotter than all positive temperatures, you’re experiencing population inversion

Immediate mode rendering and components seem to be why people use them. And you know what? The web should natively support those but doesn’t (well it kinda bad components, but ehhh). Otherwise I agree, the frameworks are overcomplicated.

We still have jokes and common knowledge about being sent to the psych ward if you reveal anything weird about your mind. I’ve heard stories only a few years old of doctors refusing to refer trans patients to gender clinics, which quite often means either needing to circumvent the system or death. Only last year I had the revelation that doctors are supposed to help me, not just tell me what I must do.

Being with my girlfriend can get me in the mood for sex, but otherwise I’m indifferent. My sex drive’s a lot lower than it used to be and that’s been a good thing for me because before it just felt like a bodily obligation and gross.

When I do have sex, it’s mostly just for the emotional experience with another person. The physical pleasure is pleasant too I guess, but alone it’s kinda boring. I just like seeing them happy :)

Took me a while to accept the label, given I do technically enjoy sex. Eventually I realized demi matches my experience decently well.

You can’t expect and accept that power is distributed unequally if you’re dead, I guess

“hitting yourself” is referring to self interactions I think

Number = IEEE-754 double precision float, which includes NaN, so it makes sense

Could definitely be worse for latency in particular cases, but if we imagine a write heavy workload it still might win. Writing a byte/word basically has to do the same thing: read, modify write of cache lines, it just doesn’t confuse the dependency tracking quite as much. So rather than stalling on a read, I think that would end up stalling on store buffers. Writing to bits usually means less memory, and thus less memory to read in that read-modify-write part, so it might still be faster.

A lot of times using less memory is actually better for performance because the main bottleneck is memory bandwidth or latency.

My immediate family is supportive, extended family I think is but I don’t see them much. My mom specifically told me she’s noticed I seem truly happy for the first time in my life.

I don’t even live near any of my relatives, and anyone I would help would be about as related to me as any other human (so, not related). Perhaps in another time period I would’ve helped my tribe, but that is not the society I live in today.

Not that it really matters here, because I have no obligation to help genes.

They seem to be focusing on CO2. Trees in cities are going to capture a negligible amount of CO2 and for relatively high cost versus doing things outside a city. The point of trees in cities is shade and looking nice (good for mental health). Liquid trees solve neither of those.

Or they’re autistic and felt compelled to pedantically correct something technically false. I’m guilty of doing that too.

Also, optional value semantics. I love value semantics!

over fitting, but people
