This is a school English class project on philosophy from around 2004 where I recruited friends and family to do the voice acting of Spinoza and Descartes 😂. Glad this did not get lost. My brother and uncle are voicing here Scene 1 Scene 2 Scene 3 Scene 4 George and Eugene Here is the second set of voice acting. ...
TLDR Diabetes is what happens when high blood sugar wreaks havoc on the body because either with type I diabetes, the pancreas cannot produce insulin for various reasons or with type II diabetes, no matter how much insulin the pancreas produces, it is not enough insulin to meet the high levels of blood sugar because of insulin resistance (insulin is ignored by cells and blood sugar is not taken up). But fortunately dietary carbohydrate is the main lever here. ...
Context Per an earlier on-going interlude, I’ve been trying to more easily curate the photos I care to reference in passing in a conversation. This started out as deduping photos and splitting out the photos of food, but at some point I realized I have so many photos I take as notes, taking those out by hand was getting tedious. I used this as an opportunity to test chat GPT’s code-generating skills. ...
Github Pages build queued for a day "Waiting for a runner to pick up this job" But I was excited to release a date fix The dates on hugo posts were funky since switching to PaperMod, like “121212-34-7878” But I was reading newer hugo uses date_format instead of dateFormat. Anyway I had a typo because I had DateFormat , would not have worked anyway. But I could not publish this! ...
This is what happens to me When editing with https://logseq.com , on my phone, laptop and ipad, I end up seeing this $ fd ' ' journals/ journals/2021_03_13 2.md journals/2021_05_30 2.md journals/2021_10_17 2.md journals/2022_01_23 2.md journals/2022_05_15 2.md journals/2022_06_11 2.md journals/2022_07_16 2.md journals/2022_08_21 2.md journals/2022_09_01 2.md journals/2022_09_07 2.md journals/2022_09_07 3.md journals/2022_09_10 2.md journals/2022_09_26 2.md journals/2022_10_22 2.md journals/2022_10_22 3.md journals/2022_12_14 2.md journals/2023_01_12 2.md journals/2023_02_04 2.md journals/2023_03_10 2.md journals/2023_03_21 2.md I think this is mostly happening when you start editing a file before a icloud sync has had a chance to take place. ...
Draft status Note haha, this is highly in draft mode, but I like to publish my early drafts because iterating is my preferred psychological happy place. But yea this is definitely not organized writing yet. Book in three sentences We escape what we intend to do when it makes us uncomfortable, but we can learn to notice the impulse to escape and stay with ( lean in ) the discomfort a little bit at a time You control your input and not your output, so align the input with your values and forgive yourself (be kind )for crappy outcomes. (corollary throw away the to do list and keep the calendar ) Make time for strategic thinking, (aka 50,000 foot thinking ), to “reflect and refine”, are you really really really doing what you intend? Really though? Are your actions congruent with your intentions? Or are you letting some other random human plan your day or worse yet, is it just pure chaos? Think critically once a week say. The environment has always had distractions, and it may seem like it’s always getting harder to resist. (Do Young minds have it worse today? What does author believe? ) The chapter 7 on going deep too makes it interesting, really vibes with me Impact (TODO: rearrange this section, since lot of impact is still scattered below) ...
First Stab at Alternate Day Feasting Wait Don’t you mean Alternate Day Fasting? Haha yes but I am still working up to the level of stoicism required to do proper Alternate Day Fasting and a low stress life also helps especially if you rely on snacks to counter the stress of the daily Work-From-Home-Wake-Up-Surprise-You-Are-At-Work-And-Work-Throughout-The-Entire-Day-Life haha! But having already been doing Time Restricted Feeding for several years now, I think I have the stoicism requirements to at least give Alternate Day Feasting a go, which is basically aiming at calorie restriction every other day. ...
Quick note, I had moved to the PaperMod theme last month and have been slowly fixing a few things that borked. Images disappeared? So first, my images disappeared all together , from this post I had them like <table> <tr> <td><img src="https://my-blog-content.s3.amazonaws.com/2020/06/06/wahoo/2020-06-06+11.39.42.png" width="30%"/></td> <td><img src="https://my-blog-content.s3.amazonaws.com/2020/06/06/wahoo/2020-06-06+11.39.49.png" width="30%" /></td> <td><img src="https://my-blog-content.s3.amazonaws.com/2020/06/06/wahoo/2020-06-06+11.44.39.png" width="30%" /></td> </tr> </table> and I had to change them to be using the hugo language, below, then I saw the images again. ...
(Note, originally posted this here but cross posting here too) Passing large dataframes with dbutils.notebook.run ! At one point when migrating databricks notebooks to be useable purely with dbutils.notebook.run, the question came up, hey dbutils.notebook.run is a great way of calling notebooks explicitly, avoiding global variables that make code difficult to lint and debug, but what about spark dataframes? I had come across this https://docs.databricks.com/notebooks/notebook-workflows.html#pass-structured-data nice bit of documentation about using the spark global temp view to handle name references to nicely shuttle around dataframes by reference, given that a caller notebook and a callee notebook share a JVM and theoretically this is instantaneous. ...
So my friend and I were discussing the general topic of what happens to our employability as people once we reach the age of retirement. My feelings on this are I am hopeful and I think people can retain their skills and probably express different kinds of skills too. (some call this wisdom =D ). At this point my friend introduced some dark humor, citing this link with an actuarial table, saying that, ...
