Thanks. It is too bad so few people think of fish as the sentient beings that they are.

I don't think many people are confused on the sentience of fish... nor that telling people this would get them to stop eating fish anyways. It's a pretty important source of protein for much of the world.

Arm the teachers!

When a teacher then shoots their entire class: arm the students!

I got my BS in Computer Science legally carrying a Glock in every class. I think it's very likely I was the only person doing so; Not because I was fearful, but because I like being prepared. It takes very little long-term effort for people to carry pepper spray, a gun (if able), and a first aid kit everywhere they go. You never know who's life you might save.

There's been exercises where you simulate active shooters with some or none of the people armed. As I remember it the situation with some of the targets were armed ended up with higher casualty numbers in quite a few simulations. The solution to a bad guy with a gun might be a good guy with a gun, but it also might be easier paths to run away and lowering the probability of a bad guy getting access to a gun.

Looking at the non-US stats, it's pretty clear the latter is at least a lot more credible.


I'm actually not surprised. As a conceal carrier, I think that most people that conceal carry a firearm are woefully under-trained and potentially a liability. I still absolutely encourage people willing to put in the effort to do it, given the potential to save lives. Pretty much every single active shooter situation only ends with the suspect shooting themselves, or being shot - I want every chance to end the threat possible.

The ideal counter to one bad guy with a gun is good guys with knives!

A majority of states have laws preventing carrying of firearms on university campuses. Were you breaking the law by doing this?

I have a license to carry a handgun, and it was at a public university in a state that allows this.

You are not clint eastwood.

Thanks for that constructive, helpful comment. I have helped several people carrying a first-aid kit.

How many have you shot down before they drew on you?

Given the teacher to student ratio: this kills the teacher.

Whoosh

For sure that is possible.


I don't know how OP manages their secrets, but I am running NixOs and am letting 1Password manage all my secrets. 1Password can manage SSH agents, can inject environment variables and manage passwords/keys in the browser. All I need to do when I setup a new machine with NixOS is connect my 1Password to its account manually, after that it's all automated.


The sad thing about this read is that none of the criticisms are necessarily leveled as Nix as a system, but are purely about how the ecosystem is managed.


Might we ever distinguish what is complex and complicated? Probably not, but I guess the author argues that this gives us a way forward because we can try to distill large models.


Would love a GPU benchmark too especially for training and inference workloads
