I find that this is noticeable in situations where you're working on something a bit more complex and are initially using an LLM as code assistant to make progress. Once it hits a wall and you find yourself needing to just figure it out yourself, man does the debt get paid with interest. It's not a permanent cognitive impairment though. But there is a bit of a recovery period needed. On the whole I think there are some productivity gains, in spite of setbacks (assuming you know how to solve the problems yourself, to begin with)

Seems like he got around to making a spiritual successor to antimony which was also a really cool piece of software. This made my day.

I don't know how other people experience it, but it's not like a full-blown hallucination as the exercise would imply. Personally I experience it as something in between the concept of an object and the perception of an instance of one.

If someone says they're looking for a purse I would still have some ambiguity, visually represented, about the material, color, texture, shape and size, type of clasp, if it has a strap or a chain attached to it, if it was new or showed wear, if it appeared to be ful or empty and flat...

I find it harder to conjure up the sensory experience of scents and flavors, is that something other people can do instinctively?

Is there an equivalent to perfect pitch smelling out there?

There was 13th lab, acquired by oculus years ago. Wouldn't surprise me if there are a bunch of first, second, third labs too

For me that step-size only works to affect the jumps given by the mouse scroll wheel. The keyboard arrow keys (Left and Down) also seem to do some scrolling after you have selected the number line. However, both arrows produce steps in the decreasing direction.

The difference between two successive steps by pressing a key seems to be 86504006548979

The suicide rate isn't uniformly distributed given gender. There are likely screenings (previous mental health history) and rejection of the most affected age group (70+) that should lead the baseline to be even lower. Meaning 18x is probably on the low end.

Clearly making a motor with induced magnetic fields both for the stator and rotor isn't the innovation here, since a large fraction of industrial motors do not have permanent magnets.

I would assume the innovation here would need to be making it small and efficient for any meaningful torque output? Usually when you see claims of a 93% efficient electrical motor its the result of taking an absolute beast of a 2kW machine and operating it at 400W. Does anyone have insights into what Renault are doing here?

KeePass is just an encrypted database file with UI around it for usability. You can keep the db on a USB drive, sync it through a cloud storage, e-mail it to yourself, whatever ... It's really not that complicated. BitWarden is the above as a service, I reckon.

Nb. The above refers to KeePassX. No idea what the KeePass without the x is about. Naming things. So hard.

I figured 2x4 would be the theoretical minimum since ascii characters are 1 byte each (without extensions). 1x5 with color is impressive, even if it is sort of like a faux 3x5
