His comment on magnet schools is interesting... Different areas must implement it differently. In south Florida magnet schools isn't just for smart people. High schools specialize in medical, engineering, law etc. and you can apply for those. I went to one that had the International Baccalaureate program which is suppose to be for the "smart" kids and had academic requirements. Unlike Nick, who went from a poor mostly black high school to a mostly white... The IB program was in a mostly black, and poor high school.

The same template was used for a few other schools, till the rich white schools wanted a piece of the "smart" kids and got their own program. Now the IB schools at the black schools floundering and are suffering (I think mine closed down)

Although most of my classes were different from the rest of the school, I shared some classes and of course extracurricular activities. The IB program gave me a more diverse education due to being around a population of people I woukd never be around.
Yep. We've tried to run compute intensive tasks on the cloud but it was a total disaster. With 24U worth of Supermicro we're able to do it with ease with a 10x reduction in costs. The cloud has its place, but nothing beats bare metal for speed (and in some cases, reliability)

> They DO NOT reduce emission of particulate matter.

Well not exactly. Depending on the type of filter the collect particulate matter and when they have collected enough to need a regeneration process they use passive heat (because driving on the highway make the filter heat up) or the actively heat the filter to then burn up most of this particulate matter. It is like self cleaning ovens that get hot enough to nearly burn all what is in them.

So about 5% of the particulate matter isn't being able to be filtered out that way. Either because the particles are to small for the filter to initially block them. Or because the regeneration leaves them as a kind of residue. Also not everything can be "burned up" so that these filters have a limited lifetime of somewhat below 200.000 kilometers.

I know, I glossed over lot's of important details, but at least be assured, that not all filtered particulate matter is being released in the countryside.
The point about how quickly investments can turn into liabilities is really insightful - thank you!

There's a social aspect to it, as well. Within one person's head, it's Sunk Cost fallacy. I'm not sure what the term is when the fear of change is spread across multiple groups (coordination problems? I'm open to ideas). But it's clearly a huge problem for complex systems that must manage change.
Global does not mean "affecting absolutely everyone around the globe (or disc, for the flatearthers out there)". Affecting a "significant subset of users" that are spread around every continent is global and it shows it's not one specific DC, link, or ISP that was affected.

The fact that you didn't experience the disruption means absolutely nothing and it's ridiculous to even suggest it does. Especially since there are other reports from Switzerland flagging downtime. See the map in the link.

endurance is also more trainable than short term power. So one will get more from being persistent for years at marathon running than they would at the 100 yard dash.

Also, you lose endurance ability slower as you age than short term power. So you can still be pretty good at marathon in your 50s, while you would be useless at the 100 yard dash or hitting home runs.
I feel bad for the guy because my dad goes through the same thing, being in IT and being 66, it's hard for him to find anything.

But stop blaming everything on millennials, damn it. We didn't create age bias and blaming millennials for everything is such a cop-out that ignores real issues. Latching onto this idea that millennials are out to get you "because millennials" is extremely toxic and is the reason why there's such a generational divide.

It is a false dichotomy of course, and pretty much every job is somewhere in the middle of the spectrum. You can also do a lot personally to endure a bad job if you decide the pay is worth it, but if your life is nothing but your job then a bad job means a bad life.

> I've also run with a lot of people averaging 50+ marathons a year and they're dismissive of the 300-400 miles claim for shoe life

They might say that, but it hasn't been my experience. I can tell blindfolded which of my shoes are older, either by the texture of the outer sole or the springiness of the inner. I know from experience that if I run on shoes with over 500 miles or so on them I'm risking plantar fasciitis, and that's with what most people would consider a gentle fore/outer foot landing. Heel strikers and overpronators wear out their shoes (and knees) even faster, needing more expensive shoes more often to stay on the road.

Believe me, I wouldn't buy shoes as often as I do if I couldn't feel the difference with every step and know what it portends. But I do, and AFAICT millions of other runners do too. Whatever your friends or mine might say, most of the advice out there from runners more experienced than any of us seems to center around 300-400 miles for a pair. I hope you never find out that saving a few bucks/pounds on shoes ended up costing much more.
Anima 3.0 – High-Fidelity Prototyping in Sketch
Having read (what I like to think as quite extensively) into the current research on the subject, I'd be inclined to dismiss these findings. Like said by /u/lawlorino elsewhere in the thread, the p values used seem questionable to say the least. There is also substantially more evidence to the contrary. I highly recommend Dr. Michael Greger's book "How Not to Die", and reading through the references section at the back. I've linked a summary of the book below but I do recommend reading it to completion[1]. It contains a vast selection of data that seems to directly oppose the evidence given in the linked article. While I personally disagree with Greger's recommendations on sodium intake (no one ever controls for potassium...), he's incredibly thorough with his research, albeit stretching slightly with some of his declarations (my criticisms with the book mirror that of the summary linked).

Anecdotally, myself and my father have been using Greger's 'daily dozen' app for the past year or so; myself fully vegan, him only eating animal product on weekends up until the beginning of this month where he has been trying veganism. I've managed to reduce my body fat by about 10% and reached a mental clarity I haven't ever had before, and my dad has come completely off his statin medication, reduced his body fat by closer to 15%, and in his words "feeling healthier now then I did in my 20's". I hate to sound preachy, but I only say this all because I want to help others. Please take the above article with a large pinch of salt.

Authors generally don't choose the final headline for online articles. It's the editor who does that. Sites can show multiple headlines for the same article and settle for the one that gets most clicks. The url of the article can sometimes reveal the original headline authors gave.

It's basic modern media literacy to ignore the headline of the article.
As a fellow German, I can see why this is confusing, but GP's "glass containers with deposits" refers to Pfandflaschen, not to Altglascontainer. "Deposit" is English for "Pfand".

>or disc, for the flatearthers out there

I mean, seriously? :)
Dan Luu has a great point about this:

He went to University of Wisconsin which was #25 out of the top 25 schools. Because it was in the top 25, he claims he got many more lucrative offers at graduation from friends who were in schools that were just out of the top 25 but were just as if not more qualified.

There are two ways to look at this:

a. School prestige matters

b. Prestige doesn't mean you have to go to the #1 school

Personally, I find a to be a bit depressing in the sense that lots of factors outside your control influence where you go to school. However, b is very encouraging and a good reminder that there is always a "hack" that gets you the same result for less effort. (Or it's good to be "lazy" in the Perl sense of the word).
The idea (I'm sure) is to avoid waste as much as conserve energy use. In fact I from an energy perspective it's probably awful. But they have to establish themselves; they have to get an inventory of products and a customer base. Then they can make deals to put recycling points in every supermarket and have their recyclable packaging available along side conventional packaging. In other words, don't think about today, think about where this can go tomorrow.

Also, if your packaging consumption consists of a jar of honey and a few personal items, you are far from typical (but good! Whole food diets are great). Many people consume lots of packaged foods and goods. In any event, you have to think of this spread across billions of people consuming goods.

Finally, reusable packaging is not new. You charge a deposit large enough to incentivize the consumer to return the packaging. This has been done with glass bottles.

I bet their angle is that they can handle a wide variety of package types and quickly calculate customer refund amounts. I.e., each container will have a unique id (QR code, rfid). I would say this is why the model hasn't worked until now...it was too difficult to manage the menagerie of containers and quickly processing refunds. So it might work for water or milk, but it wouldn't work for 300 different container types in a supermarket.

Side note: if each container has a UUID, you could track how fast people are consuming products. How much butter DID you consume last week? There are real privacy implications, as I'm sure that data would have monetary value to advertisers and health insurers.
You are blaming the wrong people there. Anyone with half a brain would realize moving manufacturing into a high population country would create competitiors who now know the fundamentals of your business. And who can do the math to figure out they can claim the market taking advantage of the cheap labor and expensive markets.

But Wall Street has a frothing hatred of people who think beyond the next fiscal quarter. Just look at the sheer Tesla short ratio long after it was clear they were viable.

Well even if these ships need to switch fuel to a much cleaner variant, when nearing shore (or a harbor) they non the less pollute the city they are harboring in massively when machines are running on low power to "just" provide the necessary energy for the ship. Most harbors currently do not have supporting energy lines for these big ships. So at least some people in these cities get impacted by these ship emissions directly.

I once worked shortly for a company running tourist ships and have to say I was shocked to learn how dirty this kind of travel is. I never thought about that until I learned that the ship they built while I was there was considered clean, because it was the first to have a particulate filter prototype (that had some hick ups in the beginning due to changing salt levels in the surrounding water).
These should be safer than that. The keys are generated on a secure processor and should not ever be able to be removed from the device.
Typically you cannot enforce “soft” properties or promises about your job. They may tell you you’ll use the best tools for the job, have management that supports you, gives you a good work/life balance. Then you start the job and it’s all taken away, and you can’t leave because recruiters will think negatively of “job hopping” even if you got bait & switched. So you’ll be stuck with empty promises, wishing you had negotiated harder on compensation, severance and other enforceable benefits.
Maybe more along the lines of "not poor" people then. "real" rich people definitely lean towards these kinds of sports.
Delivery trucks might have to be less full now, because you need room to bring stuff on as you take stuff off.

Previously, you could fill the truck up 100%, as long as it's in the reverse order of delivery.

> Loop will send you name-brand products

and then

> you ship the empty container back, where it gets cleaned and reused for the next customer.

and then

So, all the packaging and shipping back and forth is zero waste? Honestly, recycling those containers seems to be much closer to zero-waste than whatever this is.
On one hand, I want to believe they're just being British and are in on the joke. But given this is "old" media, I also think they still don't understand the power that some YouTube creators wield, how pervasive their influence is, and that they are deftly scared of what they don't understand (we've already seen this with WSJ's/Polygon's continual efforts to smear and distort Felix's public image).
Fair point. I guess he shoukd have hired someone from a supply chain industry for that.

Oat Milk Could Change the Way You Drink Coffee (2018)
I am using Elm-UI. I haven't written any CSS or any raw HTML in my project. The elm-ui layout model works very well. The `explain` attribute is a life saver in more complex layouts. There is much to love and very little to hate. I have been struggling a bit with `width fill` on rows and wrapping of blocks of text. But, these inconveniences are almost insignificant compared to the complexity of CSS. Elm-ui is well worth trying out.
When I was in Chicago during the marathon last year, they had a segment

>Now I am used to taking blame for apparently everything that every went wrong on Linux,

It's because of your smarmy, arrogance.

You break POSIX compliance, which has a real world effect in multiple areas and you accept bug reports with the humility of Donald Trump being interviewed by MSNBC.

Then when you retreat into your safe space, you play victim to the situation you created.

You talk of Linux culture toxicity, smearing the likes of Linus Torvalds, while essentially being the metaphorical sibling putting your finger in people's face repeating "I'm not touching you" over and over. Then you acted attacked when someone claps back.

You're a cry bully hiding behind a vaneer of professionalism acceptable for Red Hat's HR department which enables you to mark one more bug as "wontfix"; your attitude, your arrogance, your conceits that things not broken in fact, are so you can provide solutions no one asked for and no one benefits from.
Of course they should. And we all on this forum know small internet devices are full of vulnerabilities. We also all know smart homes and such are security disaster waiting for happen. That does not mean it is for me to take advantage of that for pranks, fun or profit.

Just as we should not demonize acts like this as something more dangerous then it is, we should not add naive feel good interpretations that makes them misunderstood heroes.

Maintaining of all these special cases requires lot of knowledge. If maintainer is responsible for just systemd package, then it's not a problem, but when number of packages per maintainer is measured in hundreds, maintainer will stick to defaults, unless users will complain loudly enough to sacrifice whole working day on the problem.
Note that this doesn't actually do anything to attest the safety of the device, as has been pointed out in a CCC talk recently. It attempts to confirm that the code running on another processor is legitimate by asking it to read its entire flash to a "HSM" chip, which is obviously simple to deceive by reading back something that is not the processors flash. I personally think that this is deceptive and counter productive.

> Given the extraordinary scope of systemd, what happens with the next major issue? Having to perpetually work around poorly designed software is infuriating.

Systemd doesn’t break stuff if they just feel like it. Everything is compatible if it can be, for example you can still run /etc/init.d scripts and manage them through systemd on Debian. Lingering processes are also still supported! It’s a configuration switch that most distros decided to turn on by default, because...

> Why should the onus be on the end user? Perhaps the distributions should be making choices that are less antagonistic of their users (e.g. upstart instead of systemd).

... it’s a net benefit to most users. It’s only “antagonistic” to a particular subset of powerusers perfectly capable of working around the issue but somehow more motivated to loudly complain about it on Internet.

> You're right about the tradeoffs though, and one of the tradeoffs for buying into systemd is angry users.
