I don't mind revealing my alts since none of them seem to link back to my main. But the top 4 results were all correct for me:

I typically abandon an account once I reach 500 karma since it unlocks the ability to downvote. I'm now very self conscious about the words I overuse...

It does seem like burner accounts are effective if each account is not overused.

Airgradient's kit has CO2!

Can someone summarize how it achieves "provable correctness"?

It's weird how much worse google is at code generation when AlphaCode was already so much stronger than gpt4 today at code generation a year ago:

https://codeforces.com/blog/entry/99566

(alphacode achieved a codeforces rating of ~1300. i think gpt4 is at 392)

AlphaCode is more specialized in programming (competitive programming to be precise) though whilst GPT4 is much more generalized.

AlphaCode also tries dozens of solutions for one problem, not sure if GPT4 does this.

Also, for alphacode paper author built/had tests, and only example passing tests were submitted for final verification.

It's a matter of cost and resources. Alphacode was surely running on unbounded hardware.

i used opencv.js a few years ago and it was fast enough to process videos frame by frame for stuff way more complicated than just floodfill. See https://docs.opencv.org/4.7.0/d5/d10/tutorial_js_root.html

nsfw if you have hn as referrer. copy and paste instead

Gah. Thought that applied only to jwz.org. Sorry folks…

For skin, retinoids seem to work well. You can order one called Differin w/o prescription

Thank you, I did not know about retinoids. I have added this to my reading queue. It seems that prolonged usage can have undesirable side effects, but proper dosage is effective in treating a variety of skin conditions. In the case of reducing skin wrinkles, I wonder if that is purely cosmetic, or if it actually makes the skin healthier in some way?

You can also apply retinoids topically. What it does is increasing collagen production.

That is really interesting. The potential side effects from toxicity listed on wikipedia [1] are ominous. I wish there was consumer technology to effectively monitor ones own blood work.

OpenAI has a lot of strong competition programmers. Search IOI or ICPC in their team update blogs:

Monitor arms freed up a ton of desk space.

Wireless noise cancelling headphones helped with concentration.

UPS saved me a couple times from losing work during power outages.

monitor arms are _great_. you get your desk back, plus you can really just put your monitor away, or adjust it so that two people can see it, etc.

Unless you're as anal-retentive as me and are driven insane by the slightest hint of tilt to one side or the other.

I keep a small level attached to the top so I can tweak it level.

I built my own desk, and it's ever so slightly off-level. It's .... more annoying than I would care to admit.
