The state of IPv6 remains sad and depressing. I just switched to centurylink fiber from comcast and I still don't have an IPv6 address. I have the option, but I have to pay for it, which seems totally backwards to me. Sure, I will pay for a static IPv4 address if I need it because I understand that they are few and far between by now. But you can't just give me one v6?

Basically I have a fiber connection in the US, which on it's own is pretty mindblowing, but no IPv6 address...
It doesn't just sometimes lead to lower quality recommendations. It ALWAYS does due to the nature of how it works.

When someone is financially incentivized to push something, but discloses that, you have to take it with a grain of salt. When they don't disclose it, you can't trust a word out of their mouth. Full stop.

Yes, hacks are original performed, but some cases, especially those referenced in this context, the hacks are made to be used by 3rd parties, most who likely would be unable to preform the hack from scratch, much less discover it.
This is the first year we are homeschooling my 13 yr old son. He is actually in a hybrid Charter program so goes to class 2 days and homeschools 3 days. We have already seen such a huge difference. We were able to bump him up 2 math levels, enroll him in a computer science course and had a lot of input on what curriculum he uses. None of these opportunities would have been available if we kept him in public school.

Public school was too easy for him. He was bored and not being challenged enough. Plus the last 2 years things kind of started getting a little creepy. I won't go into details here but there was definitely some indoctrination stuff going on that did not sit right with me.

I am not saying homeschooling is right for every child, but if your child excels in Math, is scoring off the charts in most subjects and appears to be bored, I highly encourage looking into it. There are a ton of homeschooling resources available now and there are a lot of good hybrid options too.
We can agree that a lot of schools are terrible at both, and relied on for both (seriously talk to lower grades who are literally potty training some students).

Most people don't have the option of moving to a better school district or state even, and even so, don't have time to wait for the schools to fix the issues while their kid needs an education now.

> OT, but FWIW I've never really known what "inner city" means.

In the US, it's a long-used code for "Black or Latino." Not that Wikipedia is authoritative, but here's a snip from Wikipedia:

"In the United States and United Kingdom, the term "inner city" is often used as a euphemism for lower-income residential districts in the city centre and nearby areas with, in the US, the additional connotation of impoverished black neighborhoods."

Basically, they don't mean the parts of inner cities where white people have displaced Black people. As gentrification expands, we will likely have to find another euphemism. The basic idea is you don't want to send your kid to school with "inner-city" kids if you can help it.

Perhaps I'm reading it wrong, but I don't understand where this high and mighty tone of yours comes from. You keep making these sweeping generalizations about kids at large. It's as if you're saying that the current generation of children are these unbounded savages (hyperbole). Maybe you have an oddly over-representation of children with uninvolved parents or latchkey kids.

Either way, it's hypocritical for you to pass such harsh judgement of other parents while snapping at GP in the same breath.
I am basing the promise bottom-up, based on how many neurons are in the human brain, their connectedness and speed, and amount of computation those 3 pounds can be doing using the synaptic mechanisms we know about.

You are basing your skepticism top-down based on the results the science of artificial intelligence has shown to date.

It's a fair source of skepticism. There are 15,000+ species of just mammals, all of which have neural nets and exactly one of which have higher abstract reasoning communicated in a language with very strong innate grammatical rules - and that is humans.

However, we have 7 billion working specimens, a huge digital corpus of their cultural output, and their complete digitized source code which can be explored or modified biologically.

For me bottom-up wins. We can just try things until it works - which may be sudden/overnight.

At the moment I see a jet engine, feathers flying everywhere, and no flight. But looking at that jet engine, I just can't imagine it will take long.

People who can break it won't spend the time breaking your homegrown crypto, so you won't get proof it's broken. But it's still broken. If lots of money or lives of political dissidents are at stake, it will be broken.

To have really capable people work on breaking your crypto for free, you have to be an insider. You become an insider by breaking other people's crypto. You can publish a break in an insider's crypto even if you are unknown. After you publish a few such papers, you become an insider and can publish your own crypto other people will spend their time trying to break.

People can learn the state of the art and develop an alternative to the common (NIST) choices which are no worse, but also no better. Some of those are blessed as "national pride ciphers" (GOST, Camellia, SEED, etc.).

If we learned anything from Cruise, it's that he should hang back, wait to see if her new business is a success, then come forward and make an equity claim. No sense wasting time and money just yet when 90% of businesses fail.

More seriously, it could very well be an entirely different business, and she just liked the name Style Club. Re-using almost the same business name is hardly a crime.

The biggest issue, in my opinion, is that she "shut down" her old business without notifying her investors. Now, to be practical, most customer-less startups (that is, most startups) don't have an official day where everyone walks away. One founder gets a day job, another starts spending a little more time on other projects, and so on. Everyone involved, including investors, knows that its dead. Startups that haven't done anything for 4 years don't suddenly take the world by storm.

Nevertheless, she should have "officially" shut down her startup if she was going to go on national TV pitching her new one.

While she handled this poorly, I would be wary of placing too many restrictions on allowing entrepreneurs to start new businesses. Although if they are nearly identical and you are a success, you will get into trouble (just ask Zuckerberg...)

jq is awesome. While it can do a lot of really cool processing to filter out nested details, the majority of my usage of it is:

$PROGRAM_THAT_OUTPUTS_JSON | jq .

Which simply pretty prints the JSON input with two spaces per indentation. Also, $PROGRAM_THAT_OUTPUTS_JSON is usually a script that simply outputs the clipboard (alias for "xclip -o").

I can't imagine someone working in tech being surrounded by gun righters. Mississippi, sure, but Silicon Valley?

I spent 9 years in China (I just moved back in August). Southerners (e.g. Fujianese) tend to be more subversive than northerners, but only one-on-one, given a largish group of Chinese, there is definitely a standard "party line" that diverges little. There is just no chance to have actual "public" factions like we have in the states (e.g. pro gun and anti gun), they can only exist under the radar (e.g. one-on-one conversations).
Yeah the fixed mindset has really crippled me in my life. I was one of those "gifted" kids (to be fair, I do have a pretty high IQ, but fixed mindset is bad for high-IQ individuals too) and I couldn't even stick with video games after awhile, always playing on the easiest difficulties. It's really taking a long time to re-build my attention span and work ethic (ie. from just fiddling around with a million little linux distros and languages, to really investing in learning Android/Java like I am right now - one thing at a time)

For anyone who hasn't read it yet, or isn't familiar with these ideas of praising effort and relative improvement over ability and talent, checkout Mindset - it's a great book which I'm about half-way through right now: https://www.amazon.com/Mindset-Psychology-Carol-S-Dweck/dp/0...

The one thing I do not agree with is the tax deductions for homeschooling. I don't agree with vouchers either. Starving public schools is not the way to fix them, or make them go away. The way to fix them or make them go away is a combination of voting and running for school boards.

The reason why U.S. taxes are so complicated is because every special interest group wants their one line item deduction. And when they can't get a full deduction, they'll accept convoluted computations for partial deductions with a cap, so now it's a worksheet to do the computation for the actual deduction. Multiply that by every goddamn special interest and you get a 15 form submission every year.

Income tax should be a single form for everyone. Progressive rate. No deductions for anything. No home mortgage deduction - your mortgage interest is not a superior benefit to all of society than someone else's marked up rent. It's a special interest hand out.

The only fair way is if it's the same for everyone.

Recently discovered jq and it has been indispensable part of my toolbox. A lot of json tasks I used to write scripts for, such as filtering and multi file concat, are now possible for a short command.
Mapping trees has many legitimate use cases (fighting invasive species that kill the trees, mapping potential hazards from falling trees or where you may need to respond most after a storm, managing trimming trees, estimating runoff and infiltration etc).

I think your README links to the wrong redux.
This reads like a person was asked if Tech Leads were necessary, felt the answer was "no", found research to the contrary, and wrote their own counter-argument paper. Do I agree with the premise that tech leads aren't necessary if you have a functional, harmonious team? Sure. But I feel that this paper spent as much time as I did coming to that conclusion, and with just as little consideration of what a tech lead could potentially bring to a team - even one that already works well.
My public school education in the 70's taught me, among other things, French, physics, differential equations, music, Fortran, and an appreciation for reading great literature. My parents (who are wonderful people in every respect) could never have taught me any of these things. My later education and career and life as a mindful person would never have been possible had my parents not sent me to really good schools.

Home-schooling may be a right. Fine. But it's a parental right. What about the right of the child to a top-quality education?

I learned how to socialize with adults by socializing with adults. I didn't have to wait til I was an adult to "spread my social wings" because there were always adults around to interact with. I feel fortunate to have skipped past the toxic, aggressive, immature socialization most young people have to put up with when they are segregated into the artificially age-stratified environment of a typical school system.

I've been looking into this setup as well, having dual booted all my machines previously. Though rebooting takes only a few seconds it feels like more work than it actually is, complicate that with having to enter encryption passwords, reopen all your software and load up files, etc, I think keeping everything under one OS and running a VM and then being able to boot into that VM natively when necessary seems like the best modern solution for my needs

The title of the article - "Mark Cuban and Shark Tank got Royally Screwed" - makes no sense after reading the body.

The author is saying that 1 person, in whose company he'd invested 4 years ago, closed her company down and registered another company just before pitching to Shark Tank and getting 500K investment from Mark Cuban.

So? How did Mark Cuban or Shark Tank get "Royally Screwed"? I don't get it. The author didn't state that he was going to sue the Style Club or enforce his 2012 investment agreement with Hillary (the founder of Style Club).

What am I missing? Or is this a half-baked poorly written angry op-ed?

When Hewitt started wrapping up his musings near the end I got one of those moments of clarity.

I love the fairy wasps, just an ingenious technique they employ to be so small. I wrote a paper about them and xenophyophores in my 200-level Biology class. Fairy wasps discard many of their cellular machinery to maintain their small size, xenophyophores have massive redundancy of organelles and nuclei to service their absolutely massive size for a single celled organism. I am fascinated by these techniques and I made comparisons to techniques we perform in Computer Science like compiling, parallel processing, and forking.

Now I discover from this article's sources that we mammals possess organelle movement that brings us closer to Multinucleate fungi. The description of the use of mitochondria by white blood cells was also fascinating.

Still only understand like 20% of this article, but I'm damn interested.

Well, think about it:

These quotes minimize the legitimate problems women face. It authoritatively relabels the real concerns women have in communicating their struggles as "crazy" and a "misery olympics." It tells women their experiences are a superficial social game rather than actual problems.

Feminism has been trying to instruct the world as the seriousness of women balancing careers and family life, but this article tells them these stories, based on real experiences of learning and coping are just "pernicious narratives."

After reading this article, they're going to have to battle uphill to regain ground lost by this (ironically) woman telling them the issues they face are "lies."
The real answer here, as always, is "more data".

How do humans deal with the same question? Context. Understanding. Background knowledge. The go-to rebuke of the smug liberal cognoscenti: 'educate yourself'.

To be able to interact appropriately with humans, AI needs to understand not only its own subject matter but the preconceptions and prejudices of the humans with whom it interacts.

> As a parent, it's your personal job to make sure your children are fed, clothed, bathed, socialized, educated, moralized, understood, and secured.

Focusing in specifically on "educated": That means more than handing them off to the school system, even if they go there. That means that you have to pay enough attention to know when they're not getting it, when the school's failing to teach them, or whatever. You can't just put them in public school and wash your hands of your responsibility for their education.

Still, how do "Mark Cuban and Shark Tank" get screwed? It's foolish to expect the producers to look at domain name registrations and LLCs and all that. I am guessing that once a pitcher gets a commitment for funding, that lawyers from the individual investors will do due diligence, and if anything Hillary (founder of style club) gets in trouble and gets told that she cannot take the investment from Mark Cuban. In which case, they don't technically get "screwed", they just lose out on 1 of the 100s of startups they invest in every year... big deal.

The conspirator is there to teach about Defense in Depth. Systems that rely on just 1 "impenetrable" membrane tend to be brittle. Their failure is catastrophically sudden and complete, like glass breaking. Glass is way harder than steel, but steel structures are much more robust, because steel's ductility allows for partial failures and continued resistance/integrity.
