Nah it's "fucking oath mate"
This is exactly correct. Sure there are "clean" portions of Tumblr, but from what I can tell the real purpose is to host adult content. And there's nothing wrong with that! It's a fantastic magnet for eyes, with which to show ads. They're basically killing themselves with this.
> The same calculus is at the root of non-lower-class whites (as well as nearly everyone of high status) in the US avoiding neighborhoods with blacks and latinos.

You know what I'm black, my spouse is white, and what do I tell her? "better safe than sorry". Sure if my spouse acted that way, we would have never met. I believe in personal responsibility, I also believe we have a responsibility to display an image other than the one displayed by "statistics", Hollywood and other cheap entertainment. When a white woman changes sides of pavement when I walk toward her minding my own business, I understand. It breaks my heart but I understand.
I'll admit that might have something to do with it, although psychology GREs are misleading because a lot, probably the vast most majority, of those test-takers are hoping to go into clinical psych, especially to practice therapy. This leads to issues in a number of ways: (1) many of those applicants really don't understand what psychology is about, (2) most (90% in research-oriented programs) are rejected, and (3) among what's left, it has to be said that they probably don't need to be the most quantitative to be a good therapist, if they're not doing research.

Psychology is a strange science in that it's a mixture of people with very unquantitative backgrounds, and those who deal with very complex math and statistics. What many don't realize is that meta-analysis itself really was developed as a method in psychology (even if it technically has its origins earlier with Pearson). This registered replication work is an extension of that, again being done by psychologists. It's probably safe to say that more empirical and statistical research on the scientific process itself has been done by psychologists (along with statisticians and many public health researchers) than any other discipline.

In any event, replication problems happen in other domains as well. This has been documented empirically. It might be worse in the biomedical domain than, say, physics or chemistry, but it's not limited to psychologists. What I see in the neurosciences per se is just as bad, if not worse (because it's ignored more).

I think ignorance of issues pertaining to overfitting, etc. definitely contributes, but I also think that ignorance is pretty widespread, and the problems can be sort of pernicious in that they don't always operate intuitively.
I don't think you are reading my comment correctly (or generously, as per HN guidelines). I made no such assertion, nor do I believe, what your question implies.

I love container tabs, my biggest worry and the reason I'm hesitant to rely on them is that I suspect they'll get scrapped in the future because Mozilla seems to be building a Chrome clone lately.
The article says the higher levels of strontium in their bones is from vegetables, but this source[1] says it's from consuming a tonic of plant ashes after their fights. They're trying to then correlate this to vegetarianism, but it's unrelated: they were artificially increasing their strontium-calcium ratio.

It's pretty well documented that bread and porridge were the staple foods of the Roman world[2]. You could mix anything into your porridge, from vegetables and dried fruits to expensive things like olive oil, meat and fish. Garum, a fish-based condiment, was put on everything.

Their higher carb intake is probably not because they were avoiding meat or protein, but because they just needed more calories, and carbs like grains and beans are a cheap plentiful source of them. There were many different kinds of gladiator from all walks of life, so it's insane to think at least some didn't eat meat. In fact, in the bone studies quoted, at least 2 of the 22 gladiators analyzed showed elevated consumption of meat.

If you're a slave gladiator and your owner is a cheap bastard, then your dinner (like the rest of the poor people of Rome) will be mostly carbs. But if you're a well-off gladiator, you probably ate meat when you felt like it.

Ask (yourself) questions.

Given a question, our brains will automatically start searching for an answer. But if you don't have a specific question in mind to a problem then it will be harder to dig for solutions.

While this is ideal, critical thinking skills take time to develop.
I do not for a second advocate censorship. No content should be barred from uploading, that should be a retroactive process always, otherwise free speech is impossible. Gotta make mistakes to learn from the correction, and that is especially true for young people unfamiliar with the law.

What I am against is machines feeding you more of what you just looked at. That's dangerous. It's too easy to end up VERY deep down dangerous rabbit holes. You should have to use critical thinking to explore your interests, not just get fed whatever will drive engagement.
This is such an off tanget comment, made worse by the fact that it pretends to me on-topic.

This adds nothing of value to the conversation and only distracts from conversations worth having about encryption and practical applications, and shoots down the work that’s gone into this.
>"Yet, a little more than a week later, Google CEO Sundar Pichai attempted to invoke an engineering defense by arguing that Google would not need to censor 'well over 99 percent' of queries."

This is one of those egregious misuses of statistics that really gets to me: while Sundar's point might be valid, not all queries deserve equal weight. To the author's point, equating "human rights" to "pictures of kittens" is not a fair way to frame the problem.

A long-running joke at CASP was that eventually, a neural network would be trained that could predict structures as well as Alexey Murzin. Alexey is the guy who would routinely

as we know children arent capable to give an informed consent and thus free speech (the same way like any issue requiring informed consent like freedom of entering into contract for example or submitting to medical procedure) just isnt applicable when it comes to children as they cant make that free informed choice themselves.

If you have 24/7 coverage using run books, perhaps a better system would be to take the money you're spending on the 5ish people you need to do 24/7 coverage, and instead pay two people twice as much to codify everything in the run book so that it happens automatically. Then have the alerts go straight to the L2.

> I personally have no problems with a company/college having higher standards than "it's against the law" - they simply need to ensure that investigations into those broken standards don't turn into witch hunts.

What is missing is a suggestion for how you could avoid that. If business and institution are free to handle these things as they please, which they generally would be granted under labor law and free speech, there are those that are going to disagree with you and there are those that are going to be outright bad at it. Just like they are at handling a lot of other things.

If sexual harassment is as important as not being deemed "a team player" at a company or the right of colleges to design their own admissions process (sometimes to the detriment of Asian students) we can expect people to be mistreated, at the least subjectively so, for this as well.

You can certainly can judge those involved, but I think it is hard to make a case against the problem as such. Because if you have e.g. extensive rights for companies and extensive free speech, there will be downsides as society changes. But that is an expected part of the process, unless you want to change the process and thereby labor law and the rights of colleges or introduce something like the right to be forgotten.
OK, but a) this is about "adult material" (porn) from what I can see, not other things that one may find disturbing like "thinspo", b) "thinspo" is around in lots of places, not unique to Tumblr

Reliable Robotics is a company that believes automation should be, above all else, reliable and safe.

We are building the system to make airplanes into fully autonomous airplanes, from taxiing, through takeoff and flight, to landing, and believe in the future that autonomous flight will make travel and transport cheaper, easier, safer, and more available to everyone.

The team here is made up of brilliant minds with backgrounds at places like SpaceX, Google(X), Tesla, Apple, HoneyBee Robotics, Virgin Orbit, NASA, etc and we work with autonomy, creativity, and freedom to get things done.

If you think self flying planes sound amazing, and look for hard challenges that you, yourself have the freedom to solve, this is the place for you.

We need software engineers to do everything from Flight Software and Controls software to embedded software and ground systems (UI, Infra, Data Pipeline).

You can message me at mattw@reliable.co to hear more about our test flights, the mission, the future, and our current team.
At some point in the future, I'd rather wear a BT headset most of the time in some inconspicuous manner and use that for notifications and requests.

I was approached at a gas station with a similar story. I figured it was most likely a scam, but I thought "maybe not" and, feeling generous, I bought the guy a tank of gas using my credit card on his pump, which was the same pump as mine but opposite side.

Then I filled up my car, and later reviewed my charges on that card and realized that my fill-up was never charged. Which is really weird because modern automatic pumps will not dispense fuel without validating the credit card.

Can't explain it. I just chalk it up to karma.
Out of curiosity, why have a singular Rule class that has a type (with internal branching logic based on that field), rather than separate Rule classes for each type of Rule, with Rule being a base class that users can extend to define their own rules?
I'm not blaming developers. It's clearly Nvidia management's fault. Developers don't decide this.

And it's not baseless. Where is their documentation on reclocking for desktop GPUs? Once they hid it behind signed firmware, doing it from nouveau became a major pain, because it requires complete blind reverse engineering. All this effort could be spent on making the drivers better instead, if Nvidia would have provided documentation.

It's the reason you can't use nouveau for gaming today on anything recent.
Start a software project that uses advanced math, and learn as you go in order to build the project. Learning on the job is the best way to go since you only learn the fundamentals of what’s necessary to accomplish the goal, you immediately see the utility of what you’re learning and you get a useful product at the end.

>Could you suggest some vegetable sources of protein that might have been used at the time, that would not be considered a carb

It’s doesnt matter if a vegetable is considered a carb, that can still have a significant amount of protein.

Some that fall in that category include: broccoli, spinach, asparagus, peas, Brussels sprouts, mushrooms, (as others has said legumes).

In my own regimen when I was trying to maintain ketosis while eating vegitarian I ate a lot of seeds and nuts, they of course have carbs but significant amounts of fat/protein. Also I had tons of coconut oil and coconut butter (about the best fat you can get from an energy perspective medium chain triglyceride).

They may not have had canola, but olive oil was a big staple, and that’s an example of a non-meat that packs significant calories and fat.
Which part? If you're talking about units sold rather than games made, then sure, the most popular games are often on their own engines. But that's a different measure than "games made".
