And that's pretty interesting about the "fair skin fetish" in the east, I was unaware of it.

I'm not trying to say that this is because of European colonization, or anything like that. I just think that people use colonization as an understandable metaphor when talking about art or culture, especially w.r.t how it is interpreted & distorted by other possibly more dominant/well-represented cultures.

Genuinely curious, if you want an open and polyamorous relationship with a group of people, why wouldn't a structure similar to an LLC or similar business group not be roughly sufficient (as far as a framework goes)?

You can see that suicide rates peaked a few years after the change in divorce laws, but it is ticking up again. Highest ever for females.

So we now have kids who don't do much besides social media and are depressed/suicidal. My theory as to why female suicide has ticked up: their self esteem has cratered due to the tits-and-ass parade on social media.

There is a lot of published raw science on Electromagnetic Linear Motors, with several feasibility studies on Earth to Orbit and Earth to Moon systems.

There are several challenges with building on that large, such as building large capacitors, building a structure big enough, and dealing with something that high energy. However, I think we are at a critical point where this might become something we understand how to build. We use the fundamental technology everyday in high speed rail, and we've learned a lot from constructing projects like the LHC and Hyperloop. The Navy is planning on implemented these motors for launch assist on the next generation of aircraft carriers.
A general critique: it's not just about AI.

Computation, in general, is capable of solving many problems that afflict the world - disease, hunger, resource allocation, etc. Some of these problems have "conventional" computational solutions.

Fundamentally, there are two problems that must be solved. First, the actual ability to actually compute needs perfected. This means that massive computations (i.e. the computations that solve massive, game-changing problems) can easily be performed. Things like public clouds are solving that problem. Second, computation needs applied to a problem. Statistical learning approaches have become popular because they are relatively simple to apply and are relatively successful. AI researches tend to believe that AI is all that matters, but obviously the success of AI is only possible with efficient computation. Similarly, efficient computation alone is useless if that computation cannot be used to solve actual problems.

Computation is to the 21st century as energy is the 20th. The ramifications of that statement are immediately obvious: consider the petrodollar. Soon, computation will become a currency.

Similarly with photographic film, Zeiss continue to make a medium-format mono film called Gigagbitfilm which requires special developing but when scanned, in theory, can give gigabit images. Unfortunately not only is it mono but only ISO 40 so exposures are difficult.
> a speaker whose sole purpose seemed to be to play this short audio clip

Not at all. The internal speaker of a Mac will play any "system notification" sound effects.

Here's[1] the macOS audio mixer. I've right-clicked a source here. Notice the separate "Sound Output" and "Alerts and Sound Effects" choices here. By default, external speakers will be used for "Sound Output", but "Alerts and Sound Effects" will stay pinned to the internal speaker.

[1] https://i.imgur.com/2Z0GB04.png

The simplest way to notice this is to empty the Trash on a Mac Mini (or a Mac Pro.) The crumple sound comes from the computer!

I think the justification for this is that, even if you have an external set of speakers plugged into your computer, you might have them off. Apple wants the Mac to still be able to beep at you to get your attention, even if your speakers are off (just like a PC can with its PC speaker.)

(Of course, you can reassign the "Alerts and Sound Effects" to your regular audio source, if you want to be able to mute them as well.)

Also, fun fact: if you don't plug in any external audio sources—for example, if you plug in an HDMI monitor to a Mac Mini that has no HDMI audio support, and don't plug in an audio-out cable—then all audio will come out of the internal speaker. Try it! (This was a common "thing" in computer labs back in the Power Mac days. You'd try to watch a YouTube video, but the computer would just have a CRT and no speakers attached. So you'd hear tinny sound from the tower!)
that makes more sense, thanks.
The rate of change is the biggest issue. If you are not working with react day to day you are at a big disadvanage.
This*100. As someone who was involved with a few polyamorous communities, it's far from being something that everyone can feel comfortable with. Like anything with relationships and human interactions, it's not for everyone, and even if it's for you now, it doesn't mean it's for you always. What we need is to allow people the fluidity and freedom to choose how they want to live and who they want to love. I saw some people really being miserable in polyamorous relationships.

If this project manages to reduce the cost per mile of building public transportation, the public as a whole will benefit greatly in the years to come. I'm not rich and I would love there to be many more subway lines built out in our cities.

It's the Tesla Roadster of public transit: an expensive proving ground for a technology with a mass-market demand. I'd rather the government give breaks to something with at least a sliver of hope of helping the common person - rather than tax cuts to wealthy, etc.
Terrorism is just as much, if not more, about theater than the security that protects against it. Airplanes have been targeted specifically because of the spectacular nature of such an event.

I can’t believe California pays 1 billion dollars a mile just to drill out tunnels. I think the going rate in Europe (not even China!) is something like $40M/km or fifteen times less than what California is paying per mile.

> The Musk “Loop” would have a capacity of 2,000 passengers per hour in each direction, which is about 60 percent of the Blue Line’s current, mostly-under-capacity average hourly ridership. Debatable too are the merits of this particular project for airport-bound Chicagoans—the Blue Line works pretty darn well...

I'm much more of a New Yorker, but I'll admit that Chicago transit around the Loop is pretty damn good. It may not run 24/7 (IIRC) but going from downtown to either of the airports is a real pleasure compared to NYC.
Probably no different than any other tunnel system anywhere in the world.
Open and polyamorous relationships work out great if you are a high status male. It's not so clear it works out very well for anyone else. Which is probably why culture spent so much time and effort building the institution of marriage that people don't seem to mind is dying.
Kind-of a bummer article for what I think is a very good point (that I'm not actually sure he is trying to make). Current models based on biological principals are starting at a level of complexity which is emergent from a more foundational level which is ignored in our currently best performing models.

There is a strong argument for understanding 'mind' or 'intelligence' at a cellular level. Neural networks were originally inspired by how we thought brains work; a highly connected network. Within this framework, it was kind-of ignored that the fundamental units of this network themselves have 'mind' (intelligence? sense of self?) and at least the ability to change their behavior (outputs) based on what they sense from their environment (inputs). Currently, we train NN based on training data, but once trained, the network is 'fixed', in that we've come up with some optimal set of weights and biases that don't change. Biological networks don't work like this. Individual units within biological networks can individually adjust their behavior, based on external inputs both from other cells in the network and external to whole network (environmental) inputs. I would argue that there has been a strong bias in cell biology (especially human cell biology) against attributing individual cells with 'mind' or a sense of self; however, this obviously can not be the case, since most of the diversity of life is unicellular.

I think there would be a strong benefit to considering the ideas of 'cells' and compartmentalization in regards to how we design and engineer intelligent systems: we know that fundamentally, this is at least part of how cells work.
>The extra layers of complexity with react like having to use container components was too much cognitive load for me

Wait, Vue doesn't prescribe the notion of a component tree with top level / parent components being containers for stateless feature agnostic granular components? In that context, the concept of a container component isn't too hard to digest, and you can see how all the modern component oriented frameworks work similarly.

So how does Vue differ in this respect? From my limited playing around with Vue, I'm pretty sure it prescribes to container components as aforementioned.
> Personally, I think we'd all be a lot better off if we adopted open and polyamorous relationships in a large way. They're better for resource-sharing and avoid the problem with thinking that your partner has to satisfy you in every way.

Personally I think re-establishing the importance of family values and monogamy will make our future a lot better off. Not only for the children but for society as a whole.
I don't understand. Sharing a house with a stable partner is cheaper than not. Right?
> Personally, I think we'd all be a lot better off if we adopted open and polyamorous relationships in a large way.

Unfortunately, jealously is wired deep into our lizard brains by evolution because it has enormous survival value for both sexes, though for different reasons. Men wan women to be monogamous so that they bear only their children, and women want men to be monogamous so that they support only their children.

[Addendum, since this comment seems to be getting a lot of attention]: When I was in college I had a long-distance relationship. Because we were 2000 miles apart it seemed silly to maintain exclusivity. People have needs. But when I found out one day that my girlfriend was out with another man I found myself overcome with jealousy. The intensity of the feeling took me completely by surprise. I was literally paralyzed by it for several hours, as in I sat in the hallway of my dorm room and could not move. This is not something I chose for myself. The intellectual part of me realizes that everyone would be better off if we didn't feel jealousy. But we do. It's not something we can simply choose to put aside.

This is short sighted. Do you think technology improvements in building out public transit won't make it out to the mass-market which addresses the needs of the general public?
As someone who was diagnosed with ADHD at a fairly young age, my parents were extremely relieved, and I'm extremely happy that I was able to learn how to manage it from a young age.

There are days where it's really hard, and there are absolutely days that I forget my medicine and basically the entire day is shot, but in all honesty I really truly believe that I owe a good portion of what I have to the fact that I have ADHD.

I learned a ton of methods and skills for dealing with depression, forgetfulness, anger, impulsivity, and motivation from a really young age. And those skills have helped me significantly more than my ADHD has ever pulled me down. Going into highschool and college already knowing how to manage myself and how I learn, tricks and ways of working to ensure I stay on task meant that I had a big leg up over a lot of my peers.

I have tried, but the opinion of everyone I speak to locally about the affair is "what did you expect?" The process for speeding fines is pretty much a production line in the states favour. The law was changed a few years back so that the speed camera data is not the primary evidence in a speeding case, now the Garda swears that he/she believes a driver was speeding using the speed camera data only as advice. This was to stop people demanding the source code for the equipment. A bad law that favours the state IMO since you can cast legitimate doubt on the accuracy of the equipment, but if the Garda insists you were speeding then its up to the judge and whatever mood they are in to decide who wins.

When my wife stated her defence the prosecuting Garda sergeant said, under oath, "We don't use that American GPS we have our own GPS!". My wife though she had him at that point, but the judge believed the Garda.

I have kept all the documentation in case we can do something about it in the future, but that's unlikely. What is really grating is that the lady before my wife admitted to doing 120kph in an 80kph zone, the judge dismissed the case because of her "honesty and frankness".

Currently An Garda Siochana (Irish police) is undergoing huge turmoil and a number of public inquiries due to corruption and bad management. When the police are found to have faked 1 million breath tests in order to hit targets our little issue becomes very low hanging fruit.
Have you ever met someone in a true polyamorous relationship? Like, not just on the Internet, but in real life? And known them well enough to be a close confidant?

Because I have. And I'll tell you right now that I've never seen one work. Someone is always unhappy deep down (and usually everyone is). They'll tell people its great and that they're just squares for not joining in, but if you know the parties involved you'll see they're unhappy with their partner and looking for something elsewhere (but the source unhappiness persists) or they're doing it because they're afraid of losing someone (in which case they're secretly jealous and afraid). Not things that make for a happy relationship.

Now, I don't have a horse in this race. I've always been a 1 person kind of guy, and my interest in this has always been as an outsider that just wants my friends to be happy (and if that was an open/many sided relationship that is 100% not an issue). If these relationships had solved their problems or even made them one iota happier than they had been I'd be as encouraging as anyone.

While I am skeptical of attributing personality changes due to cell memory from organ transplanting, is it possible for a cell or a cell collective to have information (memory) embedded as a dynamical system? Theoretically, it may be possible to embed memory into a dynamical system [1].

Ehh, I have a `yarn depreset` command in my package.json files on most projects at work because I still often have to delete node_modules and reinstall everything. I got tired of typing out the whole thing.

Granted this is oftentimes because our dependencies float a bit, especially since we've been migrating to a new major version of one of our major dependencies, but it's still usually the quickest way to fix weird dependency issues.

For us, npm tends to be really wonky in a CI environment. Partially because our CI container needs updating, but also because `npm install` doesn't actually do what you think it does. Gotta use `npm ci`. But the npm in our CI container is old enough that it doesn't actually support that command (yeah yeah, I know -- I don't have access to that part of our build process).

As of npm 6 though, the differences between yarn and npm have been whittled away considerably. Really, the biggest reason we use yarn is because we also use React and a number of other libraries that come from Facebook, so we're just staying under the same umbrella. We don't expect Facebook to break their own tooling, basically, while npm has indeed broken a few things for us in the past, many times critical things.

Not the most compelling of reasons to be sure, but that's why.

The original book was published in 1992, and the writing rate for the author at that point was about two years for each novel, so the idea probably originated around 1990.
Same argument was made for homosexual "civil unions". If you can't call it marriage, the group denied that right is second class, full stop.
Simply because you're not the clientele, doesn't mean this is a bad idea. The CTA Blue Line is uncomfortable during rush hour traffic while carrying your luggage. This is probably geared towards tourist/Loop workers who would have paid for a $50-80 Uber/Taxi ride anyways.
Something to note though: This doesn't count the mirror registries in China. Also Vue devs may be more likely to use CDN links.

(I would still bet that React is used much more yet, just noting that the NPM comparison doesn't tell the whole story - nor does the stars comparison)
Specifically, PAL-style color subsampling which is more or less YUV 422. They could have fixed it other ways, but they decided to incorporate a quartz glass prism and piezo transducers to realize a 1-scanline physical delay, which they then used to do the analog variant of XORing each line with the one before.
You do realise that by not conditioning on polyamory to derive that rate, you make the same mistake this OP is chastising? Additionally without a link to the data?
> It's not a myth.

Sure it is. They argue that the commonly held claim that the divorce rate is 50% is no longer accurate. Sure, one of the factors affecting this decline may be fewer marriages, but that doesn't change whatever the divorce rate actually is. I get your point that there are more nuances to the bigger picture, but when looking at one isolated statistic, citing the wrong number because there are fewer marriages is simply not accurate.
I was also surprised by that comment. I just checked and React still has on the order of less than 30 methods/properties in its entire public API surface. Vue.js has quite a bit more.

If the parent means by byte count, React + ReactDOM is about 32.5KB, Vue is 30.3KB. Not a dramatic difference in byte bloat, either.
