  • I think that “mental illness” kind of comments would come from people whose attitude for safety in many aspects of life is “that’s never going to happen (to me)”. Those people exist, so sooner or later you’ll see comments like that.

    On the other hand everybody is trying to find a balance in convenience and safety and the situations and environments and life on general for one person can be quite different from that of some others’. So what’s adequate for one won’t be for another.

    It’s like PPE or personal finance or many other things. There’s no one size that fits all and finding the right fit isn’t easy. For a lot of us it’s work in progress. Sometimes you know what’s definitely needed and tweak the details. Sometimes you know something is not going well and needs to change.

    Maybe it’s enough to say that it’s complicated and have some compassion and support for people that think it isn’t. Or people that think it’s all too much to handle.










  • That’s almost always false unless the hardware is faster and thus more power hungry and hot than your CPU. That’s rarely true. Some fpga accelerator? Maybe. GPU/TPU? Sure. Your hard drive? Not a chance that it would have even remotely competitive processor.

    The point of hardware acceleration is usually that your CPU doesn’t need to do a task so there’s less CPU load and it can spend that time running applications or respond faster.








  • Make sure they’re tied tight to your belt. You don’t want them to fall off, like, 'cause, what if you’ve got seven keychains hanging off your belt, and you’re jogging, and you’re happy, but then a couple of them fall off but that’s cool, you still got five, that’s enough. still, then you can keep jogging, and maybe two or three more come off, and now it’s getting not as much fun, and now it’s not a look anymore, now you’re–you got two or three, in-in-in-instead of a whole bunch, and, and people are starting to notice, 'cause if you’ve got a lot of keychains hanging off your belt, people are gonna be like, “Wow, that’s a lot of keychains,” but if you’ve only got two, people are gonna be like, “Hey, what’s with the keychains?” or, or, like, if you only have one, people are gonna come up and say, “You know, you got a keychain hanging off your belt,” like, like, they’re, they’re gonna think maybe you didn’t know, or maybe it was an accident or something. And, and, and, and people are gonna say, “Hey, how come you’ve got a keychain hanging off your belt?” And, and what are you gonna say? “Well, I left the house with seven but six of them fell off”? People are gonna think you’re an idiot. You see, you’ve gotta be able to demonstrate that what you’re doing is intentional, otherwise people will think you don’t know what you’re doing. You’ve, you’ve gotta appear in the know. You’ve gotta radiate an aura of control. If, if you only have one keychain, next thing people are gonna notice that your socks don’t match or that you’re wearing plaids and stripes or something, and nobody’s gonna take you seriously
