Alrighty, don't a lot of people already do this? Sometimes I'll do both an air purifier white noise and some music or something from myNoise

I'm curious what about Java concurrency hasn't made sense or not clicked? Also in comparison to other languages like Erlang or just in general?

"If the origin response does not include a Vary header, Cloudflare caches the response normally"[1]

"If one response omits it, Cloudflare could cache that response without the variance needed to keep it isolated."[2]

Will that non-Vary cache object front-run any Vary-segmented cache objects?

If so, probably worth adding a snippet rule to ensure every response has a Vary header?

Is the AWS account phone number also their phone and not the business/corp phone? And you tried the dedicated lost MFA device form?

"- cursor position marked as ${CURSOR_TAG}: Indicates where the developer's cursor is currently located, which can be crucial for understanding what part of the code they are focusing on."

I was not aware that was a thing and useful to know. Thanks!

Anthropic employees Sholto Douglas & Trenton Bricken did an interview recently with Dwarkesh Patel, pieces here and there was about the circuit tracing insights.

https://www.dwarkesh.com/p/sholto-trenton-2 -- search the transcript for "circuit" for the quick bits.

Eg, "If you look at the circuit, you can see that it's not actually doing any of the math, it's paying attention to that you think the answer's four and then it's reasoning backwards about how it can manipulate the intermediate computation to give you an answer of four."

Adding to the GP & sibling: Even in Los Angeles with some of the bigger libraries the IT/programming books were on the older (outdated?) side.. The more modern material was at the book stores like Barnes, Borders, or another one at the mall (I don't remember if it was B Dalton, Walden, or something else).. thankfully I could skateboard there after school or work and read them there for the evening since I couldn't afford them. Getting the internet and SNR of content back then was a game changer to me too.

Is this subject purposely spelled Aidemos somewhere like the HN title says instead of AI Demos?

Thanks for linking the list! I'm seeing "Sangoma U.S., Inc." in it, which might apply to quite a few people & companies.

Reminder to anyone if DKIM keys haven't been rotated in a while they might still be 1024. Eg., Google Workspace but new keys are 2048 now.
