Do you also wait until the inside of the meat is the temperature you want before taking it off the grill, then are later surprised when it is overcooked?

He's talking about information, not actions to take

Add some enzymes to help reduce the remaining cellulose?


I felt this on my last truck shipment. My previous LTL provider suddenly closed and the next cheapest option is more than twice as expensive.


Sounds like your previous LTL had market headroom to be merely twice as expensive while still beating the next cheapest option. And if they'd done so who knows, they might have stayed in business.


There are a lot of trucking companies in the US and if my experience in the PNW is any indication, a lot of them are run by idiots.


Idiots is a overstatement. This is why trucking brokers exist. These small trucking outfits can barely hold a conversation, much less deal with a end-consumer on anything customer service related.


Unfortunately, no. People talk about the times. I was sick and tired of covid posts a few years ago. Or nodejs before that.


Visualizing for me has always been like touching something with my eyes closed. I can't "see" the object, but I have a feeling for all the shapes and contours. You can feel which way a key is in your hand and where each ridge is without having to see it. I solve geometry problems the same way. I can't see the whole thing at once, but I can move my sense of feeling across arbitrary scenes.


That’s exactly how it is for me.

I can somewhat imagine a simple square or triangle but only more like feeling it in the dark without fully “seeing” it. Anything more complex, like a pretzel is out of the question, just disappears/instantly-forgotten.

My dreams can be very vivid, except for some where an object disappears if I focus directly on it.

Always wondered whether this is normal, aphantasia, or something else…


I'm a fan of the t-rex:

> given choice between complexity or one on one against t-rex, grug take t-rex: at least grug see t-rex

That section reminds me of The Litany Against Fear.


Hah, indeed!

  "I must not complect.
  Complexity is the mind-killer.
  Complexity is the little-death that brings obliteration.
  I will face complexity and I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
  And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
  Where the complexity has gone, there will be nothing.
  Only I will remain."

  — Litany Against Complexity
I made that up in blog post that feels aligned with Carl's world-view. The Litany appears here in the post: https://www.evalapply.org/posts/writing-practices-to-10x-eng...


The other thread above helped me. You can have as many collinear points as you want as long as at least one point in the set is non-collinear.

Consider a 3x3 grid. It satisfies this argument.


I learned the pig pen cipher from a library book in maybe 4th grade. My friends had fun with if off and on through high school.


My guess: it is a relatively safe compound with the right properties to act as a working fluid for this movement. The text linked below mentions the working fluid and the property that the vapor pressure is highly variable over the range of normal room temperatures.

Here is a document with details and history about these clocks: https://www.physics.rutgers.edu/~matilsky/documents/Atmos/At...


What is a spec but a collection of decisions?
