How did we get here? :-) From the discussion of whether it's preferable to move away from a country that is demanding of you what you are not willing to give, or to ignore the official orders and bet on the country’s inability to enforce their ban — to Nazis — and then to “a government that uses nerve agents on targets in foreign countries” (at least you could have said "radioactive substances", referring to the case for which the inquiry has been held and for which the factual basis is pretty well known, instead of the case about which very little information has been shared with the public), within just a couple of posts?

By leaving the Russian market Telegram wouldn’t have submitted to censorship and spying. They wouldn't have collaborated with the Russian special services. They would have kept their integrity. Much as what LinkedIn did when the Russians demanded they keep the information about the Russian citizens on the Russian soil and LinkedIn refused. It could all have been peaceful and quiet and dignified.

And the problem of privacy vs censorship and spying is by no means limited to Russia. It will resurface in the progressive world. It will be interesting to see what the reaction will be then.

If they can’t do basic, physical security correctly, it kind of calls into question their broader approach? For example, I imagine it’s much easier to socially engineer yourself into other access once your inside the campus than from without.
I actually had a spell the other day where I looked at alternatives to SQL, which mostly produced Tutorial D variants. And there are some nifty ones, there are query languages that will compile to specific SQL dialects so that you can keep using a familiar database engine. They just aren't used much.

Somehow, we've come to accept a Babel of general purpose programming languages(albeit mostly centered around Algol variants) but the same really hasn't happened with databases. Either it is a form of SQL or it is pooh-poohed as weird and bad.

And I don't think that that's because SQL got everything right and we should worship vintage language design - I think it's just a case of specialized demand and barriers to entry making the database market move slower. A lot of shops fail even at using basic features of SQL, so maybe it's asking too much to get beyond a passing familiarity with relational concepts and one syntax to interact with them.
OK, maybe they were desperate. But couldn't they have admitted that, and tried to negotiate deals with their engineers? Although I guess it's arguable that they were trying, with the offers to senior staff. But still, it was poorly done.

The hashing trick (a la sklearn's dictvectorizer) can make a huge difference.

I'm not a huge fan of that. Hash collisions can lead to unexpected behaviors in production and make feature attribution for debugging harder.

It's slightly more effort to implement, but with a trie data structure you can store even the biggest feature mapping in memory.
You are completely right. I am a Software Engineer that had to play Head of Engineering at a 100 person start-up. I had the chance to go to Money2020 in Las Vegas along with my CEO, assisting to several lunch meetings and "receptions" . As well as travelling around the USA to raise VC money.

That shit is difficult, tyring and definitely requires certain skills to do it right. I definitely would put it up there with developing complex Software architectures.

My armchair perspective of this is that rails-to-trails is a federally-sanctioned move and adding transit use to those rails is both difficult and politically hard.

It is difficult because leaving the rails as-is means small rail operators like Ballard Terminal will insist on still being able to run one freight train a week so that means transit has to compete for time slots and the operating agency has to buy FRA mixed-use compatible train sets (expensive, slow, noisy) or plead for a waiver like Denton’s DCTA got (not gonna happen in this administration).

It is politically hard because, to pick on Kirkland, people get very cranky about rail near neighborhoods and they insist that it brings “the wrong people” and the idyllic pictures of fit people walking and jogging and cycling with their kids along a leafy path...not that “terrible” transit that will “destroy” quality of life.

So trails move on and transit has to fight some other time.
In the Seattle area, you have no clue what you're talking about.
I find two problems with these kinds of studies:

(1) How are you defining "happiness"? If you define happiness as social interaction, obviously the introverts will be "unhappy". Here, this study seems to define it as "psychological well-being (measured by self-esteem, life satisfaction, and happiness)". Is being unsatisfied bad? I would argue that it is not necessarily true. Unsatisfied people tend to bring change to society. So what are we trying to optimize for? You improve what you measure. Are we measuring the right metric? If having high levels of dopamine is happiness, is it ok to inject everyone with dopamine to make them "happy"?

(2) Are these activities symptoms of unhappiness or causes? I think they are just symptoms. The more I study about this, the more I feel that "unhappiness" is more of a trait. Mostly genes and internal hormones and chemistry and biology. This constant push to be "happy" makes life worse for the "sad" people.
Considering your comments on this point, you seem really annoyed that the bananas formed a union.

that's the point; it isn't at all. It is, in fact, pure speculation based on information that is missing from the article.

The fact that the article is missing such important information could be because it's not available, or it might not fit the author's agenda.

The company is very clearly in the wrong here; I'm taking issue with the heavy handedness of forcing gender into a story that, based on the evidence presented, could easily be a clear cut labor issue.

If including even human testing in animals the furthest out theoretical way would be complete physical modeling. There would be so many issues involved there it isn't funny including building it from faulty assumptions. Even with sufficient processing power to completely model a human accurately from their DNA and wonder why the functions don't match up or show health problems - say because the communal bacteria weren't included or the physics model didn't include this one obscure molecular physics interaction we didn't even know existed before now.
In Elizabethan England, didn’t a lot of women wear lead based makeup? I’d be interested in seeing how that affected crime rates or other metrics, if that data were available.
Which is why I am much more productive working on bad code in projects I get thrown into than starting from scratch. People trust me to fix things and add features fast in codebases I have never seen before but are known as being unmaintainable. Pays well by the way. If I have to start from scratch I can only start if I have the perfect picture in my head or it is better to do nothing and go hiking. The perfect picture (almost?) always emerges during hiking/walking though.

At perhaps 100 watts per square meter, a Maersk triple E ("An arbitrary large ship") at approximately 400 meters * 60 meters would generate 2.4 megawatts peak, or perhaps 400 kilowatts averaged.

This is not nothing. It's roughly as much power as a redlined sports car engine. It might be sufficient to fight the worst ocean currents, since propulsion power scales so frighteningly faster than speed.

It would also make sense, with larger ships, to just implement the nuclear tech we already have.

As the ISP I'd pop up a reply asking you to load my certificate into your browser, example for Chrome: https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/3505249?hl=en

With a notice informing you if you refuse you won't get the malware blocking and scanning services to protect you. Depending on the laws the ISP may require you to accept the certificate in order to pass TLS traffic.
I guess, like you, I don't know that I have any answers. What I reject is you describing a made up situation that is unfair then simply noting that it is not fair. That may be true, but it tells me nothing, causes me to have no new interesting questions, and is unrealistic to boot.
Wind is also extreemly limited. As a ship scales up there is proportionaly much less wind energy to work with. Cargo ships move as fast as windsurfers (25+mph). Think of a windsurfer's sail to hull ratio. And the ship isnt on a plane, but pushes through the water. I see 1000' tall mast(s), with sails the size of small towns.

A big cargo ship's engine can be 25000kw. The biggest wind turbines (750') generate about 8000kw. So.. three of them? The ship would need to be 1500 feet long just to make room. But the wind isnt constant. Five turbines? Bridges might be an issue.
Another 'real world' skill your kids will really thank you for eventually is cooking a full meal from scratch, including knowledge of meat temperatures, spices to use, timing different dishes, and being able to calmly handle the inevitable 'the kitchen is filled with smoke and all the fire alarms in the house are going off' cooking mistakes.

Another (and related) field would be basic first aid, and more importantly being able to handle injuries more-or-less calmly even when you've cut your hand open or dumped a bunch of very hot water on yourself.
It’s not pure speculation- it’s the worker’s side of the story. You can’t discredit their experience because the other side behaved in such a brazenly stupid fashion that they’re probably being advised to not speak to the press at all. Even if management’s perspective was included in the article, corresponded to your framing, the same would hold true. Your skepticism isn’t really skepticism when it leans consistently in favor of one party or the other.

I've been controlled by it also. I've been "working" on a story to write for maybe 25 years. But it's not "right" so I don't write anything.

On the other hand, getting things out the door has been a major motivator. I'm inspired by the quote "real artists ship" (more than "perfect is the enemy of the good"). If it helps, I'm also try to recite the Dune litany against fear and Gunpei Yokoi's "lateral thinking from withered technology" as mantras to keep me moving forward.

Also listening to mp3s, surfing the web, and remembering how they've displaced nearly every other digital format because they're "good enough" is also a useful reminder.
I wish there were some independent organizations, with the trust and respect that organizations like the EFF and ACLU have earned, that would regularly audit services like VPNs, Duck Duck Go, FastMail, and ProtonMail to make sure that they're really respecting privacy.

Author doesn't put enough blame on the built environment.

Yeah, except of course there are reflections from all over the place, so just extending it out in one direction wouldn't solve the problem. I think this is what the reference to IOT was all about — if you had a few sensors in the room, then you could do a better job of this.

I've wondered if a HomePod or two could do this — I understand they are currently able to discern a very quiet "hey Siri" (even when playing loud music), due to their spatial awareness. Of course, the HomePod would also need to know where the listener(s) is located in order to cancel the noise.
Anyway from my own personal experience before I even realized I had depression I was using music to 'substitute' and stimulate emotional tracks that were starting to fade into nothingness.

Looking at the list of activities from a correlative standpoint alone is likely useless without proper derivation of causation. Lack of in person time for instance may because they are bullied and lack any positive interactions with others. Or simply because they are already depressed they lack the energy and receive no pleasure from it so they don't seek it out.

Trying to put a correlative list into action is likely to be counterproductive like deciding what those paralyzed kids really need is to be thrown from their wheelchair down stairs so they can start walking again.

Interestingly, though, this correlates with the common idea of not eating in the evening. Say you have breakfast at 8, you don't eat after 6pm, when you have your dinner. 10 hours of eating right there with snacks and all. I'm guessing that's why the study was tried, though what do I know.

The sad thing is that while I sort of understand from a business perspective why Google et al don't want to end up with a massive low-skill workforce that isn't directly relevant to their business, the number of security guards you need is directly proportional to your office footprint (i.e. you aren't going to wake up one day and find you've suddenly got more of them than you have tech workers). And I'll say the same for maintenance / custodial staff and food workers. Honestly, just pay all these people a decent wage - the impact on the company's bottom line will be a rounding error.
I tend to use vi or less for that, because of the handy searching/scrolling commands. Having used cat for 30 years, I only use cat for scripting typically.

> I genuinely do not understand Apple's move into this space.

When operating a $200 billion/year business and needing to grow, entering a $X billion/year market will barely move your needle if $X is too small.

There are only so many large consumer industries (current or future) that Apple can pick to enter.

You're not supposed to stop at a yield sign if there isn't traffic preventing you from merging. That's why it's a yield sign, not a stop sign.

Since the report mentions Apple's car was moving slowly (~1mph) when it got hit, I suspect what could've happened is it may have just released the brakes and was about to accelerate into the merge, meaning the car coming from behind would see both a clear path in front of it and its brake lights off.

There's a comment here about the car behind following too closely, but if you look at regular traffic and your own driving behaviour, you'll find that you subconsciously monitor and anticipate the behaviour of the cars around you --- meaning that almost everyone is technically "following too closely" to expect the car in front to suddenly and rapidly brake to a complete halt. Self-driving cars are far less predictable in that sense. If you come up behind a car in a merge lane with its brake lights off and no traffic obstructing it, you would not expect it to be slowing down or even stopped, because your past knowledge has taught you that a car in this condition is almost certainly going to be accelerating.
The sun and the moon spin at rates independent of the lifespan of the animal in question.
Wages set by the free market can be below what is necessary to survive, and it is our job as citizens to ensure public policy exists (and yes, unions) to ensure wage floors that allow people to live with dignity and without chronic stress from the fear of destitution. You don’t have to agree with this sentiment of course, that’s what votes, elections, and the ability to organize are for.

And a sports car is what, 3,000 pounds? A container ship is something like 200,000 tons. I guess they can power a redlining sports car engine when out to sea but not a whole lot else.
Physical access is always the single most important aspect of your security stance. There is almost no technical safeguard that will stop someone with physical access and time.
FRA compliance should get easier soon, see 'alternative compliance'.
Datacenters, from my understanding are different. They may have hired guards but also have a smaller contingent of actual employees --guarding, doing maintenance, monitoring, upgrading, etc., etc. In addition to rings of security.

Moore's law (or the exponential effect in general) hasn't applied to any other modern fields (last 200 years) and had finally failed in semiconductors. It's not an actual law, it's just an observation of a manufacturing system benefiting from its own gains.

So unless Lego's output costs cut in half with a reduction in co2 production, there won't be anything like a moores law effect.

It is the Chinese government - they are legendary for their lack of transparency and considering having a problem known a bigger problem than a problem not being known. Not to mention crackdowns and enforcement have proven quite cyclic for things like pollution control.

Apparently you have never heard of what happens to every child initially separated from parents arrested for a felony. I suggest you look into the foster system in the US to see the horrors.
