Seems like you just have an axe to grind about fat people. Protein is not the deciding factor in weight gain, calories are, so I don’t know why you think a link to the wiki page about obesity would be convincing that protein powder is snake oil.

Even when you coincide that it is relevant you dismiss with little justification. Also BMI is not a great metric for individuals, many that have a lot of muscle are measured as overweight because there is a lot more to bodies that height and mass.

Can you justify why protein powder is snake oil in line with the other things in the thread? I will grant that most people have more than enough protein in a regular diet, but stats about obesity says literally nothing about if powder can help your workouts give the results you’re hoping for.

Does Windows not have a compose key?

Oh you mean a discretized, and spreadable idea, that propagate through populations? Yeah lost have lost the plot and think it just means like reaction gifs or wojaks.

Don’t let them be so abstract. Name it after the executives

I don’t know too much about self hosting, so it might be worth asking on a self-hosting community to see the specific issues. But from my ignorance I think there are some hindrances with smaller servers and the speed of their comments propagating through the fediverse.

Beyond that I think there is something that would jump out as a bit strange to folks if every comment or post was from @username@theirLiteralHomeIP, and If they are running on a phone their IP would be really volatile which might run into issues as well.

So I don’t think there is anything fundamentally wrong individualized instances, but there are like practical issues with it. Further, it is certainly not foolproof, but different cultures of different servers has worked well in the fediverse to allow blocking posts from spaces that you don’t wish to experience. If each user had a separate instance it would be much harder to do in practice.

Again, I’m a dumb dumb, so I would hope that someone with more knowledge can clarify, I’m just speculating on what I could see being issues 😅

I guess I don’t know what you mean by that. My point was that nature doesn’t speak in any language. There are things that happen do to processes and conditions, we can describe those processes and conditions, we can use them to predict future conditions with math. But the base reality is that things simply exist.

I would say there is no language of nature; there are things that happen, and we can approximate what happens using math. Math can be used to describe basically anything, so the fact that we can understand these things through numbers is not extraordinary.

HOLY SHIT, Look at that, there’s exactly three trees, its like it’s reality is based on math or something :O

I don’t think they federate, but hexbear.net is what chapo’s corpse became.

Outer wilds spoilers!

Gradient decent does strike me as the sort of problem that would work amazingly on a quantum computer. I think the issue is byte limitations. This paper is certainly over my head, but aren’t we struggling to get a 265 bit number calculated through a quantum computer, and wouldn’t a 48 gigabyte language model be basically impossible with current methods?
