I think another thing is the definition of nuclear family and making implications about that.

Nuclear family, in vernacular tends to mean a fam where there is a mother figure, father figure (this includes same sex couples) children and by extension associated relatives (grandparents, cousins, etc) who you have some contact with, as opposed to a family where there is either a missing mother figure, father figure or both or those figures are peripheral and often times absent (aka broken homes).

Of course, we can define a nuclear family to mean other things as well depending on context as well as to serve a narrative.

There are places where C and other places where programming C++ makes more sense; the same is true with Rust and Go.

When it comes to low-level, high performance, no overhead stuff and less unexpected behaviour C and Rust fit better.

Where high implementation speed and fast changing, experimental and highly modular architecture systems are more important C++ and Go are better.

For Mercurial and Git Rust or C makes more sense. Especially if you put experimental and fast changing stuff into a scripting language. IMO.

Pretty standard for the pads that are designed not to fade out on you under prolonged, heavy use. Sound is not a factor for race-performance gear.

You probably also found their performance pretty crap when they were cold. Performance pads on cars have similar characteristics.
I think you're focusing on the costs and neglecting many of the benefits. For example, just think about how much easier it is to learn to code nowadays, thanks to the proliferation of helpful websites that take a variety of approaches to teaching, many of which were enabled by web technologies. GitHub, JavaScript 30, Khan Academy, RunKit, Flexbox Defense, Codecademy, just to name a few. And think about how many more of these sites exist today than would have in the past, because more people are building them, they're much easier to build (again, thanks to new web technologies).

And this is just learning to code.
This is weak theoretical propaganda pushed by biased amateurs. It's about as accurate as a Greek myth.

From a purely anecdotal perspective (which is pretty much what that book is), if you actually take a random sampling of regular humans in pretty much any developed society, they are woefully unequipped to handle non-monogamy, even when they are both in favor of it. It is very difficult to find partners who do not exhibit some form of negative emotions when their partners seek out other partners. These outcomes happen even when both partners are trying hard not to hurt each others' feelings.

It's certainly possible that the growth of agricultural societies changed the dynamics of sexual relationships, but it's doubtful that in 10,000 years our brains were rewired to find any alternative model to be emotionally reprehensible. Even if this were the case, though, it may take another 10,000 years to outgrow these emotional bonds, making non-monogamy akin to emotional masochism!

Regardless of what you think of the book or its theories, none of it will change how humans relate today. It's more important to understand how current societal trends developed in recent history through the use of pressure from social groups (using factors like religion, environment, or government) to suppress alternative lifestyle choices.

If it's strictly a linear program, it's probably fine. You can always find the global optimum. Seems more likely to me that it's non-linear, which then depends on how non-linear (quadratic only?), if it's just the objective or the constraints that are non-linear, is it convex at all, etc.
It's not protected speech however.

A company is free to say they will reject someone if they have a criminal background, they can't ask if you have a criminal background.

It looks really great. The only concern I have (relative to other serverless features) is that it does have a top-end architectural limit (256 ACUs).

It's probably not worth fretting over, but it is worth mentioning when comparing to DynamoDB. That means in building a serverless web app, you might look at starting with Serverless Aurora, graduating to regular Aurora (as usage increases due to pricing), and then perhaps moving off workloads better suited to DynamoDB as you discover them.

My understanding is that "nuclear family" means just two parents and their kids, and no more[0]. The associated relatives you mention are considered "extended family", and in this structure, usually do not live with the nuclear family.

If you consider cultures where it's common to have multiple generations and cousin-families living in the same house, that's in stark contrast to the nuclear family.

If there is a pay gap in any form, that's a way to perpetuate it. Suppose Group A is currently paid higher than Group B. Group A will be able to say, "I was paid this amount and I expect that much or more." Group B won't. Group A will get higher salaries than Group B. Next time they apply for jobs, the same thing will happen.

Yes, this potentially sucks for the people currently in Group A. A moral society cannot have "We will not make things worse for anyone" as an axiom, because that axiom would prevent taking power away from a tyrant. It's fine to say "We will not make things worse for people without a really good reason" - so the debate is just about whether fixing a pay gap is a good enough reason.
None of this matters as long as Technical Capability Notices are still part of snoopers' charter. TCNs are basically National Security Letters with even less accountability and limitations. It's extremely ripe for abuse.

You can't tell anyone about the TCN and you have no recourse other than going to prison for failure to comply. At least in the US when you receive an NSL you can talk to a lawyer to potentially contest an unreasonable or unlawful order.

> ... as opposed to a family where there is either a missing mother figure, father figure or both or those figures are peripheral and often times absent (aka broken homes).

Not at all. The nuclear family is a family as you describe, as opposed to one living with extended family (grandparents, for instance).
Regarding the transition from Maxwell-Boltzmann to Bose-Einstein statistics: There is no transition. If you're dealing with Bosons, it's Bose-Einstein statistics at any energy. It's just that at higher energies (or, lower densities in phase-space), Bose-Einstein and Fermi-Dirac statistics become indistinguishable, with Maxwell-Boltzmann statistics being their common "high energy" limit.

>What, none of these people /ever/ foresaw the need to delete some data?

It's a performance trade off, and not a very surprising one. Hard Disk Drives have always been known to never actually delete data (if you want the data gone, you overwrite it with 0s). It's not unimaginable that this performance trade-off found its way up the stack.

And just like a regular HDD, you can forcibly delete the data, it's just a very expensive operation that isn't needed 95% of the time.

> When you say "I would leave immediately", you do mean that you would physically intervene to remove your child, correct? Doing this at 2 years is pretty easy; you can just pick them up and leave. How do you do it at 6 years (50 lbs, 42")? Do you try at 10 years? How do you "leave immediately" with an older child if they physically resist?

This is tougher, and really I can only offer my own experience and thoughts. For context, I have a 9yo and a 18yo. I don't actually recall needing to intervene with any of them engaging in full-on temper tantrum mode. At their worst, usually pulling them aside, explaining their behaviour is not appropriate, and staying with them with the idea that when they're ready to behave correctly we can resume whatever it was we're doing is enough. Often it would be something that we could talk about together and reflect on their feelings. Depending on their age, if they're very young it's the kind of thing that can happen, and maybe some time out together is enough. If they get older and are still having this kind of behaviour then maybe you do need to leave for the day.

My youngest will often talk to me at bedtime about how she felt about certain things that happened that day. For example, if she yelled at me that day I'll bring it up and we can talk about how she felt, how that made me feel, and how to deal with it in the future. More commonly it's about something that happened at school that day.

> If you transition from physical to physiological intervention at a later year, what sort of practice will you and your children have had will make this likely to succeed? If you could make that transition (away from physical manipulation) earlier, is there a reason to wait?

IMO (and I'm just a random person with no training, so don't take this as actual advice), parenting succeeds when expectations are clear, consequences are not arbitrary and promises are kept. If you say X is going to happen when they do Y, then you better follow through. Whether X is a punishment or a reward, it doesn't matter. Trust is what probably makes it easier to transition to you using words to de-escalate situations. At a very young age children just can't remember or understand your reaction to their behaviour, and it takes time for them to learn that.

All that said, it's been awhile since I've needed to deal with children throwing a temper tantrum, so I've probably left a lot out. All I can say is that at my kids' age today I don't need to deal with this problem. Sure, sometimes they're disappointed at not getting what they want. We can talk about it and if they feel they're not being treated fairly we can usually come to some sort of compromise.

It was elaborated upon in other comments, but to drive home the point of extending an atom over the whole universe: The quantum mechanical ground state of an atom is actually determined by the size of the box you put it in. Any finite size box leads to a finite ground state energy and indeed, only by increasing the box size to infinity can you reduce the ground state energy to zero.
Firstly, shut your mouth -- you have no business telling me that my computers "suck" when they serve my needs. It doesn't suck and is one of the most pleasant machines I own due to small size and low upkeep of the OS.

32-bit Win10 works fine on dual-core 2GB of RAM for almost all of my uses (and is the one that shipped with it -- so perhaps check your sources before posting), with notable exceptions being Electron apps and bloated webpages.

Your comment is absolutely bad:

You're factually wrong about 32bit Win10; your opinion that it doesnt work well is useless when I clearly feel it works fine for me in general, modulo a few uses I called out; your recommendation of what to do is beyond offensive -- just run a different OS that won't solve the issue because it'll meet your pretentious standard? The issue is that certain websites are bloated and always going to overwhelm a dual-core Atom processor, regardless of OS.

You should refrain from posting comments like you did here -- they make the community worse. You should also reconsider how you provide tech support, in general.

Civil Asset Forfeiture has nothing to do with Trump. This outright theft of money and other assets during traffic stops has been going on for years. It was originally enacted to help deal with gangs and drug dealers who tend not to use banks for obvious reasons. This would allow law enforcement to seize the cash, drugs, cars, etc. to help suppress their illegal operations by confiscating their capital and equipment/vehicles.

It has since been perverted into the kind of travesty this article details. Personally, I don't even support Civil Asset Forfeiture on any level because it seems to violate every notion of property rights as well as some basic human rights that we supposedly believe here in America.

EDIT: my reference to Trump was in regards to OP's reference, which has now been edited out.

If you limit yourself to refactoring within the scope of the task at hand, then you end up with a mess after a certain size of software project. In my opinion, that is why software leads will normally at some point steer the success of future development by refactoring project wide, when and where his/her team can. It's also necessary for performance reasons sometimes.
