Wordpress was never really the competition for you if those are your needs. Here's what wordpress does that most CMS's either don't do well, or cost money to do:

- Have a user friendly administration section that anyone can use regardless of technical expertise (by user friendly, I mean have WYSIWYG editor for all posts and make it extremely simple to manage content via a UI -- not CLI)

- Have roles for users with restrictable access

- Have a plugin ecosystem that allow just about any customization to be easy enough to implement that paying a freelancer to do so is quite affordable

- Have an entire theming eco-system that is very alive, with plenty of free or paid options to make a site look professional

Duolingo only teaches vocab and shows you example sentences to teach grammar. It doesn't have any explicit teaching, which means it's less effective the further the language is from English. But, they just like advertising their 30 or however many language options.
There is a selection effect. It’s actually well documented [0] that poor people buy more lottery tickets than people richer than them. Not just as a percent of income, but also absolute dollars.

From a behavioral perspective, I doubt that most Americans are well suited to winning a lottery and being able to manage that transition well. Just look at all the bankruptcy stats on lottery winners. [1]

I work with people who have a lot of money. It’s part of my job. And although I’m not rich, im not suffering either. But this week as I reflected with my wife on what winning a billion dollars would be like, the thought that it would rip you out of whatever reality we currently live in and plop is into another reality is inescapable. For instance, I want to enjoy the money. That means I’m never flying coach again. But if I’m flying my family around the world first class, who do we go with? Our friends don’t have that kind of money. So would we pay for them? Ok, then when do we stop paying for others? (Before the money is all gone). And how does it affect the friendship when one friend is paying for everything the other one enjoys? The dynamic is weird, and probably stressful as can be imagined.

Having enough money that you can’t run out imof it (assume being prudent) would be great, but the social costs are high. I like my friends and neighbors and don’t want to have to get new ones because of the influx of ridiculous amounts of money.

Disconnecting or cutting the wiring harnesses does not introduce corrosion. Assuming the connections are made well using the correct methods it will not be an issue. From the pictures it looks like they soldered and heat shrunk the connections which should be a long lasting repair.
There is the same correlation in regards to vehicle occupants. At some point the kinetic energy becomes so great that the body of the car is unable to absorb it sufficently and then the remaining energy kills you.

I think neuroscience is much like exploration. You can make hypotheses, but we barely know what is going on, so the hypotheses aren't really well grounded. Find hats there, publish the result, build the map, so to speak, so that future scientists can make more informed hypotheses.
Python, ruby, php hash tables are roughly 2x slower. perl5's being the worst maybe 4x slower.

Damn fast is only relative. It's damn fast compared to the previous implementations. Wikipedia even dares to say that the worst hash tables of all, perl5, is one of the very best. Bias all over.

SIMD optimized hash tables, such as the Swiss tables tricks have the potential to be much faster than khash. And khash is not cache oblivious at all, with its double hashing scheme.
My Data Done Right
I drove a heavily modded car when I was 17, so I'm familiar. We bored out the pistons to make a 2.8L engine closer to a 4.2L and then dropped the cat and replaced the 4 speed gearbox with a five speed manual.

But it was done by an experienced mechanic, and pretty much every failure mode resulted in harm to the driver, not to others.

This guy is a hobbyist and he's mucking with hardware that is controlled by software, which will magnify any problem he may have created.

Manual mods to a car are wholly different than modding hardware that supports a complex software system that he can't modify or even read.
Yes we are! I first had the same thought when I was reading about Galley division: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galley_division and then I think I found a website that could switch between english and arabic translations and found a number to compare.

Dioxin exposure causes men to have more female children
Arabic's grammar system should also be fascinating for any computer scientist. The majority of MSA vocabulary is generated by predictably transforming "root strings" of 2, 3 or 4 letters. Beyond just English style conjugation, this means that every verb can predictably be transformed into a set of nouns, every noun can be traced back to to its original root verb (the same for adjectives and adverbs).

For example

Root: KTB
Kataba (he wrote)
Kitaab (book) [thing you write]
Maktaba (bookshop / library / office) [place you write]
Kateb (clerk, writer, author) [writer]
(and so on for words that don't translate directly into English)

Root: AML
Amala: (he did / worked)
Amal: (~action) [thing you do / make]
Mamal: (factory) [place you do / make]
Amel: (~worker) [doer, maker, worker]

So on for words like (kitchen = place where you eat, pilot = person who flies).

The previous comment arguing that Arabic is too rigid for new vocabulary overlooks how this rigidity allows for a very well structured grammar, that ability to express thoughts and ideas thag just fall out of a result of the combinatorics.

Similarly, this means that contrary to previous comments, Arabic is also /very well/ encoded for many tasks. Once you know your roots, is very easy to reverse engineer what a lot of commonly used words mean. What's more, you can (and people have) exploited this to write very efficient semantic compression algorithms for Arabic text.

You can't see it in the English letters but these transformations are super algorithmic, you do them by just doubling consonants or adding vowels and it's very intuitive for native speakers.

There are only about a total of 6000 lexical root words in Arabic, so on a computer you can represent each word by encoding it's lexical root, and the grammatical transformation on it. This results in compressed text which is also still very easy to analyse for meaning and sentiment.

You can check out the literature on Arabic natural language processing to see more like this, and a lot of them double as helpful tools for learning Arabic. Google once made an API which would take written Arabic text and infer the locations of all the pronunciation marks from the context and vocabulary, so you can turn text into a form that's easier for beginners to read. Yamli is a popular tool which automatically transliterates Arabic that has been written phonetically in Roman characters back to correctly spelled Arabic letters, so if you've heard a word but don't know how to spell it you can still Google it. I'm sure there are many other cool things I don't know about too.

There may be a lot of spoken dialects, but written Arabic is potentially one of the most standardised and carefully encoded languages there is.

> 1. It's very convoluted and it takes many more words to describe things accurately than latin and/or germanic languages

It could be correct in the opposite side too, there is many Arabic sentences that need longer words to translate to English.
Sounds to me like arabic is an equivalent of evolved latin. It is kind of the situation that would have happened if no languages had evolved from latin and we would still have regional interpretations of latin. Am I correct? Is it possible that arabic continues to evolve into completely different languages with grammar, lexicon and all?

Edit: typos.
I should have been more clear with "more say than the rest". I referred to making the laws of the country. In Finland the parliament makes the laws according to the constitution and everyone has a single vote for electing members of said parliament. From what I know companies have no extra votes to give for representatives.

Beyond Falsifiability: Normal Science in a Multiverse
Null results often don't mean anything other than insufficient power, poor study design, failure to control for relevant variables, etc. The reasoning against publishing null results is that one cannot prove a null, and therefore there is no finding, AND that the null finding could be due to uninteresting reasons (e.g. sample size). With per-registered studies, there is greater focus on sample size and study design, since the study will get published either way. This balances out the concerns somewhat.
Is a confirmation required if the device has connected before?
> You do an experiment, you look at the results. They fail to confirm the hypothesis. But if you tweak the hypothesis just a little, the data suddenly confirm it. So why not publish the tweaked version?

If between tweaking the hypothesis and publishing it, you add the step "you perform another experiment which tests the tweaked hypothesis", you have just described the scientific method.

Owner of jailbroken & firewalled iPhone(s) for many years here.

"Safari" is the app that does the browsing.

"com.apple.Webkit.networking" is the app that works in the background doing things like the icons refresh. Some other applications also use this "channel" (app) to reach out, and I usually have it on "Deny all". I like it better when apps do their own connections and don't hijack the "backroards".

The only two reasons I jailbreak ALL my idevices(s):

a. Firewall IP

b. Protect My Privacy (PMP)

You literally have no idea what goes in the background when you install and run an app if you don't spy on your phone.

The disgusting part is that even my bank's (NatWest) app, as well as LastPass talk to irrelevant companies when I fire them up, with (my) most hated being Facebook (which is of course blacklisted and added on my hosts file).

For my Android devices I always run "NoRootFirewall" which is a pretty good firewall.

Edit: Both FirewallIP (iOS) and NoRootFirewall (Android) have logging mechanisms so you can track what goes in/out and what is rejected. I am really looking forward to a NoRootFirewall-app for iOS. Something that creates an internal VPN allowing you to manage it.
But I do see that planning a road trip in Tesla is going to require a lot of additional stops. Last time when when I planned for a coast to coast ride, it was 14 hours additional to a regular ride because of the charging time. It's 3000 mile so 10 stops. Sure I can kill those charging times if they bring their 600 mile range roadsters.

> The problem with that description is that the word "now" is not well defined when Alice and Bob are far apart.

Do you have an alternative description to work around this "problem"?

QM is a non-relativistic theory. In this case, the measurement on C/A is strictly before the rotation on B so there is not even the shadow of a problem. Relativistic extensions to QM are Lorentz-invariant and for space-separated observables there is a restriction for operators to be commuting (so the outcome is consistent with either of the observations being "first").
I disagree. I'm using it to learn another language that is far from English, albeit one with much simpler grammar. I find it more effective than a grammar heavy course. You can know every rule of a language and still not be able to speak it at all. What you need is internalization of those rules via practice, which Duolingo provides.
> Let’s be honest about what that means: 2/3 of scientists are fraudulent or incompetent.

No, it means that 2/3rds of the attempts to reproduce research fails.

When you work on the very edge of science, the lab you're working on it probably either the only one, of one of a very small number who are even able to perform the research that you're doing, due to a combination of highly specialised equipment, subject knowledge and just plain experience. Without that combination of factors, it's quite easy to mess up an experiment and therefore fail to reproduce the research.
I think you might find the opposite to be more true. When I was younger I somehow got the impression we flew to the moon all the time, and was shocked when I learned how rare it actually was.

That’s just my anecdote, but I don’t think it’s just me. I’ve also been the one to inform a number of other people who had the same misconception.

> It's pretty amazing that Arabic, technically spoken in a contiguous region from Morocco to Saudi Arabia isn't mutually intelligible with itself, whereas English, French or Spanish, separated by oceans for centuries, even if they grew different variants, stay intelligible.

Language is political.

If a different political situation had come about you could see French, Spanish, Italian and Romanian dubbed one language named Neo-Latin, this language wouldn't be very mutually intelligible either
There's the aspect of why you would choose to replicate a particular study instead of doing something else - there's always more ideas than your ability to execute them.

At least for me, there are two cases why I'd bother to do that and why I could write in a grant proposal that this work is necessary - either I want to build on that study; in which case most likely I wouldn't publish just a pure replication but rather a comparison of my changes with my replication of the original study, and this paper would be counted as a novel study. Alternatively, I'm doing a replication because I'm not certain whether the original study is actually true, because I have some solid reason to believe that it's wrong.

Do they have extra money to give to representatives?
Completely agreed. I think the system is ripe for an overhaul, and has many problematic aspects. We'll see how it goes, after all it doesn't look too bad with the open access revolution.

I personally would like more use of pre-registration (there is something about that on the front-page right now. But also I think deanonymzing peer review and publishing the reviews along with the papers could be very interesting. Obvious drawbacks as well of course but I think it has potentially massive upsides.

Cathay doesn't tell us what else has been leaked (or they don't know), but what if there's a team on the other end of the hacks that actually analyses the meta data of these hacks, and finds out the frequency of movement of some people, and add that to their 'alpha' ?
Thanks for chiming in with your direct experience.

I am not an expert, but my impression as an outsider is that Shanghai, as one of the richest and most politically influential cities (and main media centers) in today’s China, can accomplish quite a bit more along these lines than most other cities.

It’s great to hear that there is significant support for continued use of Shanghainese. In your experience, has the government’s approach changed over time? Would you say that support for the Shanghainese language is increasing or diminishing? What about popular awareness/activism?

In your experience do most kids in Shanghai today end up using Shanghainese as their primary language when talking with their peers? I have heard from multiple Chinese immigrants that the younger generation in their home cities now primarily use Mandarin.

> Method calls are up to 20% faster in general.

> The startup time of Python itself is reduced by 10-30%

I'm surprised by this (but also happy). Python is great due to the huge amount of libraries and functionality and ease of use, but with all these new packages and modules and new core Python functionality I had a slight fear that the performance would decrease over time. I'm happy this is not the case, and that the team is actually improving(!) it.

Congrats!
If you can handle the cut, then yes. It's awesome to work in a startup. You can learn so many things, more than just your work area. The colleagues are more like a family and you will do more things together. You have also times where you need to work more but you can be more creative and you are able to offer more ideas which can help the startup flourish.
