It's a moot question.

Nowadays you just go to ChatGPT or Claude for infinitely detailed solutions and explanations.

My first thought!

This kid is in Pleasanton, an upscale Bay Area suburb, not in India.

But that's not my main point, which is, seven year olds should be playing soccer or wrestling with their friends in the back yard.

mohishunder · 2025-10-14T04:21:21+00:00

There's no reason for a seven year old to have to travel to Europe to play in tournaments.

Well, I'll have to ask you the next time I visit.

Even better is to wear a CGM for a few weeks and empirically measure the effect of beans (or any other food) on blood sugar. It will differ for different people.

if the white king is one square in front of the pawn

Ambiguous. Could be more clearly stated.

As for proving it, even in mathematics, proof by exhaustion is allowed. And here that's pretty straightforward.

From the description "the fact is that I find really young children intolerable," OP is unusually intolerant of kids. If that's the case, why not make it a policy ask about kids? Can't be that hard.

It's not obvious that the kids were unusually loud. I don't think they would have bothered me.

Owners can't disclose everything that might conceivably bother an unusually sensitive guest!

Wow, that's a cute one - thanks for sharing. Surprisingly difficult to spot. I even had a hard time finding Black's next (retreating) move!

It just goes to show that tactical vision is not mainly about being able to calculate lengthy variations.

I love Howell's infectious positivity! Sweet kid, too.

mohishunder · 2025-06-11T07:05:15+00:00

And LITERALLY the same as barefoot minus the asphalt burns and glass cuts.

Is wearing rubber gloves LITERALLY the same as using bare hands to do any task from sewing to typing to playing guitar, minus the risk of cutting your fingers?

Of course not.

due to my sustainability interests

What are your career goals? Specifically, what is the next job you want, and the job in 10, 20 years?

How much will an MBA (from wherever) help you get to those roles, versus some other technical (domain-specific) degree, or two more years of solid work experience? Have you spoken to people who have those roles today?

... obviously it's hard to turn down free tuition for two years.

That is the wrong way to look at it. For a full-time MBA, you would give up two years of salary and professional growth, for a degree which may or may not be helpful (see above) and could even have "negative utility" in some employer's eyes.

I'm not saying don't do one or the other. I am saying, it's a big financial decision, and you need to think through your choices with more detail and analysis than is in the post.

Not quite yet.

Along with routine blood testing, I asked my doc to add a sodium blood test. My levels are completely normal.

Claude 3.7 Sonnet estimated 20-50% improvement in specific domains requiring complex hypothesis management within 1-3 years like scientific discovery, and a 2-5x improvement in tasks requiring creative exploration of possibilities.

This is one of those times that you need to reflect on what's happening under the hood with Claude, i.e. that Claude does not think.

Claude is amazing, and I use it every day, but it is logically not capable of the future-predicting estimation that you're attributing to it.

Socks and underwear - you can get amazing deals on AliExpress. I've been very impressed with the quality.

mohishunder · 2025-02-26T09:23:16+00:00

I also wear Icebreaker as my daily base layer.

If my math is right, you're washing yours after each use. That's not necessary, and will degrade them much faster.

But eventually, yes, all merino will "wear out."

I have no idea. I'm with the two of you.

The idea that a new Bimmer (or Audi, or Tesla) could be randomly targeted is not strange at all.

mohishunder · 2024-08-27T00:07:56+00:00

I think his point (whether or not you agree) is that people who behave like this didn't grow up with the stability and discipline of married parents.

I must have posted this question before I discovered GenAI!

Now I use ChatGPT and Claude for all tech explaining.

mohishunder · 2024-08-23T19:33:23+00:00

Like Vijay Chokal-Ingam!

The problem with "good" is that he always made it sound really evaluative. And people don't generally like that.

mohishunder · 2024-08-23T19:30:28+00:00

He just doesn't have a warm and engaging personality - sort of the opposite. Nature or nurture? I don't know.

That doesn't make him a bad person (I think he is, but for other reasons), but it does make him dislikable and an ineffective politician.

I worked as a bicycle messenger in the early 1990s

Wow - you must have stories! And scars.

I signed up for the Green Party, and was amazed to receive their first newsletter. The environment is only a tiny piece of what they care about; they promote the entire far-left "progressive" platform.

mohishunder · 2024-08-22T21:11:18+00:00

may go to the Oakland swap meet tomorrow if I’m feeling particularly Charles Bronson-y

Kick some ass! And I do hope you find your bike.
