It doesn’t taste the same. The lactase breaks the less sweet lactose into glucose and galactose, which are about twice as sweet as lactose (all are less sweet than table sugar.)

Also lactose free milk is typically ultra pasteurized, which gives it the longer shelf life, but ultra pasteurization does impact taste. It gives it a “cooked” flavor.

I’ve found lasers to work better for infrequent printing because toner doesn’t dry out and clog things like ink does. Does the Ecotank have that issue if it’s months between prints?

Tizen has privacy issues and suggests content on its home screen.

I have my S90D Wi-Fi turned off. Suggested content is still there from when it was previously on the network. Also certain features require an Internet connection, but I don’t miss those features with my Apple TV.

Please don’t make troughs become a thing again!

If you use the profiler and see that the slower operation is being used frequently, and is taking up a chunk of time deemed significant, why not swap it to the faster version?

In a simulation I’m working on that goes through 42 million rounds I spent some time profiling and going through the code that was eating up a lot of time (especially things executed all 42 million times) and trying to find some optimizations. Brought the run time down from about 10 minutes to 5 minutes.

I certainly wasn’t going to start over in C++ or Rust, and if I’d started with either of those languages I would have missed out on a lot of really strong Python libraries and probably spent more time coding rather than refining the simulation.

How rough was the switch? I can’t imagine changing all my accounts that use my Gmail address, but I’d like to move to something else.

Lucky you! I need to check my university’s current GPU power but sadly my thesis won’t be needing that kind of horsepower, so I won’t be able to give it a try unless I pay AWS or someone else for it on my own dime.

nVidia’s new Digits workstation, while expensive from a consumer standpoint, should be a great tool for local inferencing research. $3000 for 128GB isn’t a crazy amount for a university or other researcher to spend, especially when you look at the price of the 5090.

In fairness, unless you have about 800GB of VRAM/HBM you’re not running true Deepseek yet. The smaller models are Llama or Qwen distilled from Deepseek R1.

I’m really hoping Deepseek releases smaller models that I can fit on a 16GB GPU and try at home.

Cellulose isn’t plastic though, it’s the sugar that makes up plant cell walls, like wood. Cotton fibers are 90% cellulose https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellulose

I’m confused why they included cellulose without clarifying that it’s not a petrochemical, unless cellulose micro and nano particles are also an issue now. Maybe I should read the original study…

I did notice this news article that mentions:

New Yorkers who live within the Congestion Relief Zone will not be charged to drive or park around the area. They will only be charged once they leave and cross back into the zone.

I believe OP is talking about NYC’s Congestion Pricing.
