Very much agreed, although I think spooks are perhaps not the standard case of this problem.

Wikipedia has a major problem handling inflammatory subculture issues, because the ratio of highly-invested partisans to casual observers is so high, and the topic is too arcane for most administrators to even decide what constitutes a bare-bones neutral article. At best, you end up with something where every single claim is caveated with "side A says, side B says" and so the broad thrust of the thing is incomprehensible. At worst, you end up with something that looks neutral because it has a 'Controversy' section, and obviously everything outside of that is just a review of facts, except it isn't at all.

There are lots of politically charged instances of this, but a fairly tame one is the article for any smallish town or school district. They seem to be written almost exclusively by members of the local Chamber of Commerce or PTA and disaffected high schoolers, because no one else knows or cares about the topic enough to edit, and so the page for every small town I've ever lived in is laughably inconsistent with what any actual resident would recognize.

And of course all of that is prior to 'citogenesis'; I'm pretty sure I've found a couple of claims that exist only because someone put them on Wikipedia. If that's not a win for someone trying to spin an issue I don't know what is.
Knowing arabic, I'm not very surprised of this result. I actually don't think there is underlying pattern, most of the words are memorized and created by social conventions.
Probably not a large factor because the prevalence of frontiers-temporal dementia is very small compared to vascular, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's. Anecdotally I see it in less than 1% of dementia patients.

Incidence of FTD is around 2.7-4.1 per 100,000 people.

Incidence for Alzheimer's is estimated to be roughly 10.5 per 1000

So although it's a good thought to have about the correlation, even if 100% of FTD cases were caused by that mechanism I don't think you'd see the difference they saw in the study.

All of these things should certainly be given the right to exist and to be documented, but not in an encyclopaedia. Going through all your reasons:

If an idea is badly argued - it's not yet ready/mature enough to be described in encyclopaedia.

The best way to critique an idea into the ground needs to happen in the scientific discussion, and only the aftermath of that critique needs to be included in an encyclopaedia.

Poking holes in our best ideas - again, that's the scientific discussion happening on papers in response to other papers; this process is good and important, but it should happen in that medium, and kept out of Wikipedia.

More awareness of wrong ideas without appropriate disclaimers that they're wrong and why they're so leads to mass disinformation and is essentially harmful propaganda. There is a tradeoff between being authorative+truthful and all-encompassing; getting one of those requires to actively work against the other. As Wikipedia has chosen that it "wants" to work towards the first, so it's chosen not to be the place that will facilitate "more awareness of the kind of ideas that exist in the world" - this was a contentious issue some decades ago, resulting multiple other wiki-like resources with lower criteria for notability, achieving what you propose but sacrificing other things that are important for Wikipedia.

An outlier opinion can later be shown to be right - when that happens, an encyclopaedia like Wikipedia should describe it.

Talking about team communication in the abstract is difficult. I wrote a book about it. [1]

The problem is that you are looking for the maximum amount of valuable communication with the minimum amount of overhead. That is almost impossible to reliably quantify, however, because each team develops their own communication and language style. This is the tension we face: outside folks who mean well want to standardize things so that teams have a better chance of succeeding. But the only thing they accomplish by doing this is creating a lot of friction, waste, and overhead. It does not matter if your TPS report has a cover sheet or whether your standup is at noon or not. Nor does it matter whether you're using Trello or crayons. You're focusing on the wrong thing.

If we limit our discussion to teams located in one place using a physical board, I have noticed that standups that focus on the board, the work, happen with better teams. (They don't make teams better. Good teams tend to do it that way). A few useful tokens of testable work on the wall that people can point at and talk about how those goals are going tends to focus the conversation around value.

On the other end of the spectrum, large spreadsheets or online tools where each person reports on what they're doing usually show a completely waste of time and a death march. I worked with a VP once of a major corporation that kept a 100-300 line spreadsheet with "promises" he received from all his teams. We spent every Monday morning for hours reviewing each promise and talking about how we had failed the clan and dishonored ourselves. Oof. It was horrible.

Best decision I ever made.
1. Isn't the standup usually the place you're told to initially ask for that help?

2. Aren't most people, at least the developers/designers in the same standup, supposed to be working on the same project?
This seems like the most logical answer in the thread

>"Yes, really. You're trying to deflect to another subject using extremely shoddy calculations (and don't use the "It's a back of the envelope calculation" excuse) because you have no defense for the topic at hand."

My defense is that bitcoin energy usage is really not that high even if it was all a waste (as some seem to think). I offered some rough estimates and at least showed some evidence of effort.

You apparently think the energy usage is very high, based on nothing (at least that you have shared).

>"AFAICT, you should stop deflecting and concentrate at the subject at hand before trying to veer off."

How far did you get through school and where did you go? If you had success, how did you decide which class to study for first, etc, without understanding the reasons to prioritize?

EDIT:

I use school only as a general example most people on this site are probably familiar with. Pretty much any project requires prioritization...
Good find, thanks! It's much closer than I'd think. Not that I previously would have been afraid to fly a private jet, but those stats would greatly comfort me.

Now, per passenger-mile, that's not so good, but when you're deciding how to fly a person from point A to point B, you care more about crashes per hour, which is the stat they use.

Also, sharing this typo because it amused me.

This doesn't sound that bad to me. Size isn't much of an issue, houses have room for them. Prices for them seem all over the place:

The same with an inductor, which is just a coil of wire.
This is why I think a lot of people on the left are misguided in their commitment to single payer solutions. They're putting means ahead of ends. It's perfectly feasible to get universal coverage and sane costs, while preserving the existing insurance/provider model - thus minimizing political resistance from both the industry and the socialism-phobic public.

There's something uniquely pathological about the US system to lead to costing about twice as much as any other industrialized nation per capita, while leaving millions uninsured, causing hundreds of thousands of bankruptcies per year (even if insured), and frankly having pretty crap outcomes. It's not just that we need a system that would be better... it's that it's hard to imagine a system actually being worse, if one is being realistic and not merely partisan.

Another thing toxifying the discourse is American Exceptionalism, that underlying believe that America is better than everyone else at everything. It's hard for a lot of people to even admit that our system isn't the best. There's a lot of "Yeah, it's expensive, but look at our technology!" I don't really know how to argue against the Exceptionalism argument.
I suspect that there are pitched battles in botany too.

And about areas with sane editors, it's arguable that the rot runs all the way to the top.
What part seems dumb?
When it comes down to conflicts over opinions, like whether we should write that X country's behavior technically counts as violating international law or not, consider that both sides arguing their views are in the wrong!

The role of editors is emphatically NOT to write their objective, honest assessment of a subject. It is to find reputable sources, and state whatever opinions they express.

Sources type things down; You report their views.

The only point left to argue is what sources are reputable, which source to pick other which. Only that's a much more productive debate to have since there's often a lot of precedent (the same controversial sources tend to come up again in different arguments about different topics), there are pretty clear guidelines to fall back to, and since it's not about a very narrow topic it's easy to bring outside people to the discussion.

I can't claim that this will magically solve every content dispute, clearly not, but if you're stuck arguing opinions on niche topics it's a good first step!
Standups always felt to me that they had a core negative message to developers.

It's not about communication at all. Its about control, its about saying:

We don't trust you.

We are going to check on you to see what you are doing, every single day, because you are not a responsible adult and need constant surveillance.

Its also about putting constant psychological pressure on developers, to make sure they complete the tasks as soon as possible, and move on to the next task in the list.

Even if developers know that some refactoring is absolutely needed or this production issue needs a closer look because something strange is going on, developers don't have the autonomy to just do what they know needs to be done.

Everything needs to be pre-approved by a non technical manager and assigned a JIRA or equivalent.

Looking back, to me its clear that I resented standups, they made me feel like I was being treated as an assembly line worker.

I have the same answer down the threat but basically:

They can only calculate company mach using the same formula as everyone else and a salary limit. For 2017: 270,000 * 6% = 16.2k which is the number given.

PS: My guess is the 6% is because they do something like 100% matching up to 6% salary.

The culture didn't shift much post-Sourcefire, it just melded a bit. Everything they acquire becomes a little Cisco-y, depending on how big it was. Duo will become "Cisco-y Duo". But it may be more Cisco or Duo depending on the strength of the culture.

Talos is a good example: it was created from merging Cisco SIO and SourceFire VRT, but I would wager it's 80% VRT [in terms of culture]. They also have so many researchers now that it probably has sub-cultures. Even a single remote office can have its own culture.
The Market Is Poised For Catastrophic Losses (Part 1)
What if I don't want a team mate to look at something I'm working on? What if I just want to focus on building, not explaining and sharing?

The current trend of "agile" is just another form of micro management. It's not good for the programmers at all, it's only good for product owners and team leads who are coordinating resources. Because it's micro management. We just call it something else now.

It forces developers to share every mistake they make, it makes them share if they are thinking incorrectly about something, it makes them easily replaceable.

Let's just stop pretending it's good for the programmers, alright?
Yeah market is crazy. I live in a smaller city so it's still somewhat doable but prices are steadily rising here and competition for both rentals and homes for sale is really crazy. I got outbid on three houses, some of my bids were 20k+ greater than asking price.

Why can't we have a combination? Basic free healthcare for those who can't afford to pay for it, and premium care for those who can afford private insurance.
The business I'm working in (SEO tracking, Google rank tracking) is incredibly saturated and there are a couple of big players (Moz, Ahrefs, Majestic,...) around which are the industry standard. They get the large piece, obviously. But that doesn't mean us small fish can't get a share as well. You just have to develop one or more unique selling propositions, or try doing something better.

For example, we made our product stand out by using a completely different design and branding. Big players use the usual corporate white theme, while we went for a black themed app with aggressive logos. Others are server side rendered apps, while we serve a single page app that's feels much snappier. We polished the UX. Even though the competition (the big players) have many more features and much richer datasets, we started observing some people jump ship - from their to ours. Simply because our interface makes people really enjoy using the app and it ticks with them (if you want to check us out: https://nightwatch.io/).

Notable exceptions include Medicare in the US being legally forbidden from negotiating drug prices.

That's not really accurate. Medicare doesn't negotiate, they just defacto tell drug companies what they'll pay. Plus on the outpatient side, it's the private insurers who negotiation on behalf of Medicare.

At any rate, drugs are ~10% of all Medical costs. Why hasn't Medicare negotiated down the other 90%?
I think the previous poster is trying to say something slightly different.

If the interest rate on your student loan is lower than the investment returns you make, then you:

(1) End up with more money if you don't pay off your student loans, and

(2) Can still pay off your student loans whenever you need to, so your wife would not have to continue working any longer than she would otherwise.

It is strictly more money, and doesn't change your wife's timeline. You basically get free money at the spread in yields between your student loan debt and your investment returns.

One way to think about it is this: If you could borrow $50k at (say) 3% interest and could invest it in a way to make (say) 8% returns, why wouldn't you? You'd make 5% on that $50k!

The fact that you already have the debt, and the cash comes from saving monthly instead of in a lump sum doesn't change that basic math, and doesn't change how long you need to keep saving for -- in fact, it would lower it!

Of course, that assumes a low student loan interest rate and a high rate of return on investments, as well as risk tolerance, etc. etc. etc.
FWIW, I've used both PyInstaller (bundles python and deps) and nuitka (actually compiles code to C++) and been super happy with both, though my use cases are generally simple (lots of networking generally but not much GUI work).

Nice work! If I'm not mistaken, the root requires morphological disambiguation, which may change depending on the context/phrase in which the word is observed.

This is an active area of research in Morphologically Rich Languages (MRLs), since this problem also appears in other semitic languages like Hebrew, as well as Turkish. There's a nice body of work to learn from, both with and without neural nets. For example, this paper from 2017 (http://aclweb.org/anthology/D17-1073) uses a neural model for morphological disambiguation. You can see a nice comparison of tools in the recent 2018 Universal Dependencies Shared Task results: http://universaldependencies.org/conll18/results-lemmas.html (look for ar_padt).

If you're looking for training data, the Arabic treebanks in http://universaldependencies.org could help. I think some of them contain surface tokens with lemmas. I'm quite sure they also have roots.

Also, you might want to take a look at the SIGMORPHON CONLL shared task (2017 https://sites.google.com/view/conll-sigmorphon2017/ and 2018 https://sigmorphon.github.io/sharedtasks/2018/) on morphological reinflection, which IIRC is a similar task - taking an inflected form and reinflecting it with other morphological properties. They also have a nice data set to train on.

I work on a team where 3/4 of the team are business people. Yet we have a stand up with the entire team everyday and everyone talks about what they are working on. How is hearing that you are talking to account X about something or just came back from conference Y applicable to the job I've been hired to do? Likewise when it comes to my turn to talk it often turns into "blah blah blah [giggle] I don't know what any of that means! computers!" from the business people. It's so useless.

I was wondering the same, but I thought the number of illustrations would be 7!/2 = 2520, that is, the number of permutations for 7 different elements, divided by 2 because symmetrical sequences generate the same drawing.

Is it incorrect? How do you get "6!" ?

720 custom doodles seems doable, 2520 seems a bit much, so I suspect my reasoning for 7!/2 is wrong :)

Edit : oh, I see how for all closed paths all 7 permutations are the same so we can divide by 7 for closed paths, but there are still the open paths... hmmm (still pondering)

Edit 2 : aaaah, got it, I did not notice he was always closing the path himself... tss that's cheating :)

> Learning how to put down their phones while socializing and working

How many years do kids spend in school? And how long do you think it takes to learn how to do that? Surely not more than one year.

Arguments of the form "They need to learn how to behave in later life, therefore they should spend 12 years behaving that way" are wrong. (The conclusion may be correct, but the reasoning is not.) Given that it takes only x years to learn that, the question is whether it's worth having them behave that way in the remaining 12-x years.

There are always going to be limited quantity goods, and inequity will drive up the price of those goods. Land is a fantastic example of this, and the Bay area housing problem is made worse by laws and regulations, it is not created by laws and regulations.

Harvard only produces a limited quantity of lawyers every year, and those lawyers are paid a premium in large part because of the limited supply. A Harvard education isn't a process that can be infinitely scaled.

Income inequality drives up the prices for limited quantity goods.
