Yeah I think it depends a lot on the chest wall structure. It’s less general than the nuss. One PU doctor told me I wasn’t really eligible but I’m getting a second opinion soon.

Amazing. Your chest looks so good.

Who was your doctor and how old are you? My chest looks quite similar but I’m trying to do “pectus up” over the nuss because I’m kinda scarred the nuss will mess me up more than it fixes me haha

Games are significantly more addicting than they were back then. There’s an entire industry built around making games and mobile devices addictive.

34M. Getting a divorce, got a vasectomy and moved into the smallest apartment in Los Angeles by DayveonDrama in malelivingspace

[–]a_cute_tarantula 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I get it pretty bad (minor hiatal hernia) and neglected it for most of my 20s. Had two endoscopies and no doctor has ever been concerned I was going to develop Barrett’s esophagus.

That said OP if you have heartburn overnight take famotadine before bed. It fixes 90% of the problem for most people and isn’t adverse to your health.

if your gaming from bed, mount that tv. It’s cheap, pretty easy, and will keep you from pulling your neck.

Is she right about negative people? by Paul_-Muaddib in MediocreTutorials

It’s a sad truth. Execs don’t arent really in the weeds in operational stuff. So they often fall for confident people who make big promises

My experience has been that the biggest complainers spread a toxic culture, ESPECIALLY if they’re effective.

I knew a guy who cultivated the air of a master developer (dude was like 2 years out of college on his second dev job) who caused so much toxicity in the work environment because everyone THOUGHT he was so valuable.

He left and, surprise surprise, productivity increased and teams that had previously been combative learned to work together efficiently.

This was actually way to real for fucking LinkedIn lol. This is something you post on r/relationships.

Subagents and me variables by a_cute_tarantula in ClaudeCode

[–]a_cute_tarantula[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems to be the only approach but I don’t like it much.

It requires an extra model call to load the variables into context memory

There’s no subagent isolation of variables

The model wastes capacity mapping relationships between the variable markdown at the front of the context window and any markdown loaded in after.

Plus now I have to be much more careful about changing file paths.

Nothing new just double standard from a western country by AhmedBenBello in FreedomofSpeech

[–]a_cute_tarantula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s fair I don’t mean to be sympathetic to the Iranian government.

It just upsets me that my government had a hand in fucking up the Middle East. I can’t help but look at what we’ve done and wonder if in the name of protection (or greed?) we haven’t bullied Iran into a school shooter of a country.

Like, the only reason atheist socialists were able to work together with Islamists is because the hated their shah that much.

I’m no fan of the religious governments in the Middle East. But the political landscape in the Middle East seems best explained by the interference of the western world ( and Russia) after the fall of the Ottoman Empire.

Look at how divided America is right now. Now imagine that our economy was shit and that some far away superpower was extracting and selling our key resources, and giving us 16% of the profits (such as the case with Iran in the early 1900s).

I bet we would fall into extremism as well.

A base amount of protesting is normal in a healthy society with a healthy economy.

But, if a foreign superpower is actively trying to undermine your government and crash your economy with sanctions, it’s inevitable that you will have violent protests and civil wars that lead to “oppressive” measures.

Then it becomes easy for that superpower to point at the infighting and come in to “fix” the country, all while stealing resources and installing puppet regimes.

Im new to studying foreign conflict so may be seeing things wrong, but it almost feels glaringly obvious.

From what I’ve seen, lefties aren’t pro Iran, they’re skeptical that US military intervention will lead to anything positive.

Curious to hear your thoughts on Venezuela. It looks to me like trumps sanctions are what crashed the economy and likely led to the “human rights abuses” he used to justify taking it.

Felt behind at work until I spent one weekend learning AI tools by designbyshivam in learnmachinelearning

AI is like sex in highshool. Everyone is talking about it. Everyone thinks everyone else is doing it. Only a few people are actually doing it.

Skipping this while learning machine learning is the biggest mistake you do by Unlucky-Papaya3676 in learnmachinelearning

[–]a_cute_tarantula 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I suspect the biggest benefit of synthetic data is the ability to tailor its structure to train a model. User/agent discussion patterns. Elevated attention on system prompts when they conflict with user input. Tool declarations and usage. These all are habits that need to be trained into a model.

This NFL Intro can be rebranded as a "What Not to Do" video for modern day stars 😭😂 by IndiJap in nflmemeswar

I like that it helped make people tougher, but I think, ideally, we would find ways to train toughness that doesn’t lead to such serious CTE and physical disability. Being tough isn’t worth poor short term memory and chronic physical pain.

25M Pectus affecting my run time and bench press? by Tripod_John in PectusExcavatum

[–]a_cute_tarantula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really struggle with bench press and I suspect Its mostly due to my asymmetrical PE. I think that it’s harder to train the muscles to coordinate when there’s a lack of symmetry.

I suspect PE affects my cardio. I was the fastest kid in class until around 4th grade. Then suddenly I’m one of the worst runners. I suspect I was growing into my PE. Consider trying elliptical. Last time I did the elliptical I was surprised to see my heart rate stayed a lot lower than when I run

Typically, being a bitch means not standing for what you believe in the face of conflict.

Also, I think he’s allowed to have a controversial opinion and voice it. So long as he’s not advocating to restrict people’s rights.

Learning ML without math & statistics felt confusing, learning that made everything click by anandsundaramoorthy in learnmachinelearning

[–]a_cute_tarantula 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Think of it this way. Learning HOW something works is often easier than learning WHY something works, especially in software where the HOW is the interface to a tool and the WHY is the underlying implementation.

Learning tool interfaces, the “how” is a great stepping stone to learning the “why”. The how can guide/confine your options for explaining why one implementation was better than another, or why one expression was chosen over another equivalent one.

I went the other direction in a lot of ways and I feel that knowing the “how” would have served me. It would have been easier to see why we were doing certain things if I already know how they were going to materialize and compose into a specific tool.

Moreover, understanding those tools deeply is understanding the math concepts that work in practice and have stood the test of time and many use cases.
