This seems improbable. Of course it depends a bit on the number of hours required to effectively helicopter parent, but the data for USA mothers indicates something like a 100% increase in time spent since 1965 resulting in two total hours a day, which seems far to little for any kind of omnipresence (similar results for fathers). Of course, these numbers are "on average" so you might argue that there are helicopter parenting subpopulations contributing to this increase, but this data can't provide evidence for or against that. The data in Denmark (where there really has been an orders of magnitude increase) and in France (with the decrease) seems like interesting places to look into. It could be that systematic reporting biases have a significant role to play in these results.
I don't have any peer reviewed studies to point to here, but I do remember reading about both the stagnation of middle-class incomes and the rising cost of childcare in recent years.

If you take those ideas as fact and couple them with the people commenting on the 'parenting police state' it makes sense that we're seeing an increase in time spent with children.

Will this increased parenting time lead to humans that are better or worse prepared to cope with and thrive in the world after leaving the nest?
We're now resuming the development of the Eclipse plugin, and you'll see new updates very soon.
It's inaccurate because regulations for neutrality under bases that have since been closed off by the courts were in place in the time period referenced. The current regulations were put into place to replace those regulations with ones grounded in what the courts had pointed to as the remaining available basis for net neutrality regulations.

So, it's “lets strip new regulations because in the past, things were okay with old regulations that cannot be revived.”
that's what I meant when I said we "waved bye-bye" to competition. We lost control, now Title II is the only way to get it back.

It does seem from the description that only one motion is possible for one of these muscles. Full motion would require combining multiple muscles with complementary motion, similar to the way the body works.

The speed seems much slower than that of an actual muscle. Is this inherent in the technology or just a limitation of the current prototypes?

This literally happened to me last week in Fresno, CA at @dmpayton's house. Fortunately, it's not possible to directly call CPS here; one needs to go through the police first. The police arrived and questioned me. I explained to them that I had no intention of changing my behavior and that I didn't want to answer any questions. They were polite and eventually left.

But it was still bizarre. I don't understand why the response (to the caller) isn't, "M'am, there's no violation of the law in your description of this event. Please keep this line open in case of actual emergencies."
> One analysis of 11 rich countries estimates that the average mother spent 54 minutes a day caring for children in 1965 but 104 minutes in 2012. Men do less than women, but far more than men in the past: their child-caring time has jumped from 16 minutes a day to 59.

So that's 70 minutes combined up to 163 combined, or a 133% increase, more than double.

The ratio used to be 77/23, and is now 64/36, mothers/fathers.
I've done some tinkering with streams, and I was initially very excited. They do come with some frustrating limitations. Foremost in my mind: Concatenation of streams is fairly straightforward, but how do I perform a parallel join (zip?) of multiple streams?

In other words, given [1,2,3] and ["A","B","C"], how do I map over [[1,"A"],[2,"B"],[3,"C"]]?
Majority of the cost is probably operational and R&D costs.

A F9 rocket is 14 tons of mostly aluminium alloys. The materials aren't a big fraction of the costs.

Manufacturing is very expensive, but due to the accuracy, repeatability and size of parts needed, the vast majority of the work is semi-automated. It's the tooling and design thats expensive, not each individual rocket.
I personally went from Go (slightly mingling with it) -> Rust 1.0 (wrote my first applications with it) and found it to be incredibly easy to learn in comparison to C, C++, Java, and even Python and JavaScript. Everything's pretty explicit and straightforward, and the API documentation and associated resources are stellar.

I think there are a lot of possibilities. Many tech meetups are hosted where people work, so maybe something like Meetup.com event hosting will get bundled in as a WeWork perk. Maybe WeWork can rent space to meetups. Maybe they'll use it to monetize vacant WeWork space. I'm sure Meetup also has a data trove of past meetups.

Maybe monetizing services on top of their longterm real estate leases is the key to profitability: "workspace as a platform". Meetup fits that model well with a huge userbase.

Given that the actuators are so light, it means that you don't need the extra power required to lift the actuator itself.

They indicate that they've had a 1000x increase, which means that to lift 1kg you only need force to lift 1.001kg instead of 2kg

Anecdote regarding this new FF:

I would find frequent cases where my system would stall for 10-20s (could not caps lock toggle, pointer stopped moving). I almost always have just Chrome and gnome-terminal open (Ubuntu 16.04). I had attributed it to either a hardware or BIOS/firmware defect.

Now, after switching to Firefox I have gone a week without seeing those stalls.

YMMV -- I never bothered to investigate, it could be something as simple as slightly-less-memory-consumption from FF, or still a hardware defect that FF doesn't happen to trigger.

Two of my buddies had kids when they were 19-20, when I see one of them his daughter is basically watching youtube videos all the time sitting on the couch.

The other guy does not really let his kids around phones or tablets, they can watch TV, but thats also heavily regulated. But usually when we are around, they hang out with us and work on cars. Its really fun to teach them stuff about cars even if they are only 5 and 6. When we sit and have meals, I try to engage them as much as possible, talk about music, and math.

But yes I agree with you, phones are really killing it. Have you tried deleting apps you like to use? Switch to web apps with difficult logins?

on a side note does anyone else find those youtube videos for kids hella creepy?
Yes, the fob works that way. It's the door button that toggles. But the fob sounds the horn, so if you don't want to be obnoxious you have to use the door button (or lock all the doors manually).
Yes. Do you really think most unmarried families have both mother and father in the household, though? Regular contact with the father would be a lot more difficult if he's not around except on weekends.
I'm not prepared to dig up any articles right now, but a lot of child psychologists seem to be worried that it will make children worse off in the long run. All that constant parental contact inhibits their learning how to be independent.
I remember that. A newborn who didn't want to sleep, no matter the hour, and parents so far into sleep deprivation that the only thing that mattered was sleep. I'm not sure how a baby that's supposed to sleep 18 hours a day can be awake all night, but... it certainly seems that way. Looking back, trying to make a baby sleep is like pushing a rope. It only works when they want to.

If you can, tag team. For at least a while, let the baby's sleep schedule be what it is, and just hand off every few hours so someone can sleep. If that's in the dark hours, great. If not, you'll be tired enough anyway that it doesn't matter.
The article gives statistics broken down by mother/father time as well - there is a substantial increase in both.

A meetup I frequent solves this by having a monthly drink sponsor that spends a few hundred bucks to buy everyone's first drink, and get their logo projected on the wall.
The article attempts to make logical arguments from false premises.

* What makes evaluating regulations so difficult is that the benefits are usually readily apparent ... but the costs are much more difficult to quantify Why should that be so? The actual costs of implementing and conforming to a regulation are easier to measure than the benefits. The benefit of NN is harder to quantify than the cost of enforced nondiscrimination.

future innovations ... are far more difficult to calculate Predictions are hard, especially about the future. If some future innovations are difficult to predict consequent to a regulation, others are hard to predict in its absence.

* regulation always has a cost far greater than what we can see at the moment it is enacted Why should that be so? Because we can't know the future? If that's the case, it's equally true for benefits: we can't know the full benefit of a regulation, either, because not all the behaviors it forestalls have been invented yet.

It has been estimated that many EPA regulations have benefits worth 100 times their cost. Those benefits far exceed EPA's original estimates.

A regulation is a law. We hear a lot about them as "bad" because corporations have the money and time to complain about them in the press and to congress. They say the problem is costs, but when it comes to intangible goods like banking and communications, the "problem" is often the regulator's interference with the corporation's ability to exploit imperfect information. If you don't think your phone company or credit card is two steps ahead of you, read your terms of agreement sometime.

Good regulations squeeze out bad actors. Worldcom did significant damage to AT&T and their customers: by publishing fraudulent financials, it pushed AT&T to make deep cuts to services that -- by honest accounting -- were profitable and competitively priced.

A good contemporary example is airline pricing. Not long ago, the price you paid for you ticket was the price for getting from A to B. Then the airlines started charging for drinks, then food, and now bags. The real price can be $100 more than the published price. When searching for fares, there's no way to look for an "all in" price, so all airlines are forced into this deceptive model. Only regulation could successfully return us to a normal system where the price is the price.

The Internet exists because of taxpayer-sponsored research to create standards and place them in the public domain. Anyone who used MCI Mail or Compuserv or Prodigy knows what a privatized Internet would look like.

The idea that the telephone company (or cable company) should be allowed to determine, in any way, how we use their service or what we use their service for has no analog in any other industry, which is why every supporting argument is specious or disingenuous or just false.
Show HN: Location-based webhooks for hackers
No, it isn't. Removing Title II classification does not get us back to the rules that governed the internet in 2015. The FCC issued the Open Internet Order in 2010.

Verizon sued them within a month.

In 2014, Verizon won the case, in part, but the court explicitly recognized that the ISPs represented a serious threat to the internet, as it was, and indicated the FCC had other options for regulating.

Within a month following the case, there were widespread public consultations. A month later the FCC said they would act. Shortly thereafter, the FCC went with the only option that remained: Title II classification.

The pre-Title II internet had net neutrality. We're moving into a segment of time where that is gone.

The rollback of Title II classification does not also roll back the limitations on the FCC imposed by the courts.

So no, it isn't a rollback.

DRM _technology_ isn't the problem at hand, and yes it does "work" to effectively keep honest people's behavior constrained to corporately approved actions.

The real problem is DRM _law_, which is a gross overcriminalization of justifiably legal activity, like repairs, format shifting (both to and from DRM devices), security research, tinkering with your own possessions, etc. And on top of that, then demanding that all countries in the world follow suit.

Arbitrage money is net of fees between exchanges so your ELIF showing $5 profit is kind of irresponsible giving people false information. If you are concerned about your users do mention the fees in bold letters above fold.

On your question on exchanges in US, well read this:

And it doesn't even mention IEX:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEX

So no not only two exchanges in existence.

And I mentioned NBBO because it nearly removes arbitrage opportunity not because there are only "two exchanges". But if you want to change your goalpost to focus on M&A, I digress.

Maybe the car can be driven away for once. The engine immobilizer requires the keyfob to be present inside the car for it be driven away. If the spoofed fob can trick the immobilizer, yes it can be driven away for once because the immobilizer check is not always "on". Its checked before the engine starts.

If it was, I could throw my keyfob out of the window on a highway and the car would come to a stop.
Your statistic is for the fraction of children living in single-mother households. dinoleif's statistic is for the fraction of babies born to single mothers. So your statistic doesn't count babies who are adopted to two-parent households or whose father later marries the mother (probably plus other factors I'm not considering). I'd say your statistic is more directly relevant to "is there a male adult living in the same house", but dinoleif's for "is the child being raised with a legally committed biological father".
It's unfortunate, but it happens regularly in today's world.
Yes, we agree completely!
I was going to initially say something about child-care, but then I read the article and saw that men child-care time was previously 16 minutes a day in 1965, and now is up to around 59 minutes. That actually seems like a positive trend; at least from a holistic and common-sense point of view. It seems pretty strange that the men would spend such little time with their offspring. Now, we need a study to see what affect men spending more time with their offspring is having on them and society in general.

Previously Internet was classified as a telecommunication service, and was following the same regulations. Any company could easily enter the market and provide a service. Until FCC deregulated it in 2002 and 2005.

First was reclassification from telecommunication service to information service, the second was removing requirement to lease the infrastructure to others at reasonable price.

Now in order to enter the market each company will need to lay its own infrastructure, but it is even worse than that. If a company wants to run its own fiber cables (like Google Fiber was doing) they need to get incumbent ISPs to move their wires to make space. And those incumbent ISPs purposefully are delaying the process.

In Nashville Google managed to convince city to pass a legislation which would not require incumbent ISPs action, and moving existing wires could be done while lying the new ones (it's done by the same technicians that incumbent ISP would sent anyway). And of course the city was sued by incumbent ISPs.

This shows how fucked this situation really is, because even Google is giving up on their Google Fiber project, and if they can't who else can enter.

Oh and nice bonus, is that Title II requires pole sharing, once it is repealed that requirement won't apply as well. That means any new ISP entering the area will have to deal with constructing new poles or new wells which is even more expensive.

So in short if this is repealed we will be in even more fucked up situation right now.

Oh yeah, also Ajit wants to make sure that individual states won't be able to impose their rules overriding it.
Hey thisisit, happy to! Leo replied with more specifics in the sibling comment to this, so I'll try to talk about the high-level aspects very briefly, although I'm working on a post titled "PR from first principles" that will do a better job of explaining.

The "software-powered PR agency" is more a description of the appartus/mechanism rather than the goal, so perhaps it'd be more useful to start with our mission. We want to enable anyone with a great story to reach those who want to hear it. Rather than trying to build up the audience yourself, we believe that it is much more effective to connect sources of great stories with storytellers who 1) already have an audience, and 2) can do a better job of telling the story for that audience than you can.

This is the role that today's PR agencies occupy as middlemen. However, they come with prohibitive price tags that restrict access for most stories, and their principle means of making these connections is through individual relationships with both sources and journalists, much the same way it has been done for decades. We think it's time for a change.

The software-powered part comes into play because we ultimately want to create a marketplace that more efficiently facilitates these connections— using both public and proprietary data, we're starting to get a really good understanding of what stories specific storytellers are looking for, and we connect them to the best sources.
It is pretty interesting to see Stoicism in a modern context too.

Albert Ellis developed Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT) in 1955. And later started the Albert Ellis Institute (http://albertellis.org/) with the aim of research and education in this area. Ellis refers to Epictetus in his first major publication.

The primary framework is described really well here (http://www.intropsych.com/ch13_therapies/a-b-c-d-e_mnemonic....) and is actively used in Behaviour Therapy to treat several forms.
Negative responses trigger a greater emotional response, thus garner more attention and upvotes.

The fact that negative content commonly reaches the top is just a side effect of the voting system, which reflects human psychology.

As an aside, I think the rise of subreddits like r/wholesomememes and other purely positive subreddits on r/all was done intentionally to counter the rampant negativity on Reddit. I think it's great. I wonder what kind of cultural guidance systems the mods on this site have in place.
But it can die of two ways - rampant schisms, or total disinterest.

Federation without scarcity or central control means that networks can splinter into tiny, insular subgroups.

The article makes an observation that online communication favors a typically male communication style. That does not make you, your coworkers, or your company bad or inconsiderate people. There is no reason to respond defensively to an article like this, because it is not an attack. It is an observation on how modern work environments may favor one style of communication over another, and what role that gender socialization has in all of this.

What's important to gather from reading an article like this is that people are different. They communicate differently. Keep that in mind when you are communicating with them, because you may unintentionally be limiting their potential to contribute.
