Also in this specific case it is a very sensible strategy too. The whole reason why Poland, Cyprus etc are in EU is because they think they will get better treatment as part of that larger group. If EU is not going stick its neck out for these countries then these countries should not be in EU at all.

Also, it is perfectly fair because USA is dealing with entire EU here and hence can not treat Poland or Cyprus any differently than France or Germany because the stakes are exactly the same.

A more sensible policy should have been to publish the overstay rates every year and use that to determine VWP for the next fiscal year.
Dropout rate is not relevant, because we're only looking at high achievers and we believe their dropout rate is negligible. There are roughly equal numbers of boys and girls graduating high school (technically, there are more girls!), but there are many more high-achieving boys than girls. Boys are much more likely to excel.

This is not a statement about the group average, but about the group variance. The SAT is not a good tool to use to assess group averages; I already mentioned this.
This is a little programming time capsule. Before open source, you had little choice but to build essentially everything yourself.
Layers 1-4 map nicely to our current system, and the academic existence of layer 5 allows us to lament its lack in the real world :)

My first guess would be weather records from that day, if the photo was taken outside.
OSI wasn't just a layering model--it was a protocol suite. The thing is, the OSI stack lost to the TCP/IP stack. That's why it seems tricky to figure out how the "real world" fits in to it--TCP/IP networks literally don't fit.
That’s one way to look at things. But keep in mind, in that hypothetical world, we just erased Feynman, Einstein, Oppenheimer, and, well, probably the entire United States. Folks may disagree about whether that’s a net win or a net loss.

While it's very popular, I find Google's to be the most distasteful. It's very opinionated in a very curmudgeonly kind of way.

In particular, the emphasis on 80 char wide lines hurts readability by encouraging shorter variable names and wastes quite a bit of vertical space. For example, this example line from the spec violates the spec: "using TimeSeries = std::unordered_set<DataPoint, std::hash<DataPoint>, DataPointComparator>;"

And it's strangely opinionated but in way that's particularly fearful of templates, macros, and SFINAE such that it causes more strife than it's worth. Like by forcing you to justify otherwise reasonable things like "template<typename Thing> RedisSerializeTheThing(const Thing& thing);" or "template<typename Thing> LexicalCastLoggerThatCanOptionallyTemplateSpecialize(const Thing& thing);"

Variadic templates fall under the template ban I guess and __VA_ARGS__ stuff is based around macros, so there's not really any good way under that standard to express something like a safer sprintf or tuple marshalling.

Essentially my problem with the guide is that it bans a lot of type-inference that makes C++ safer and faster. C++ is already dangerous, so I think that's the wrong choice.
On the book front, I'd also recommend Foundations of Mechanical Accuracy by Wayne R. Moore. It's a great treatise on how you can measure things like one millionth of an inch, and has lots of incredible pictures.

If you really want to, you can in fact issue a POST with a query string and no body. It would admittedly be rather unusual.

Also, application/x-www-form-urlencoded bodies are literally identical to query strings anyway, so if you can construct a query string, you can easily construct a POST body using that Content-Type too.
Also, what kind of student loans are dependent on graduation? If they were, we'd probably have cases of people intentionally being expelled to avoid debt shortly before graduation.
No, it doesn't.

Violence is common. Mental illness is common. Some people happen to have both, but there's few of them where the violence is caused by the mental illness.

When looking at things that predict violence we see that substance misuse is a better predictor. Previous exposure to violence (as a perpetrator or victim or witness) is a better predictor. Either of these combined with untreated SMI where the patient is not in contact with services is a stronger predictor. But SMI itself is only a weak predictor of violence.

You can read the NCISH (National Confidential Inquiry into Suicide and Homicide by Mental Health Patients) data for a research based look at the data.

https://documents.manchester.ac.uk/display.aspx?DocID=38469

EG, from the summary on page 6

> most patients had a history of alcohol or drug misuse; homicide in the absence of comorbid substance misuse is unusual

> around half of patients were not receiving care as intended, either through loss of contact or non-adherence with drug treatment

> patients are also at high risk of being victims of homicide

And for a more researchy source: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/183929

> In patients with schizophrenia, 1054 (13.2%) had at least 1 violent offense compared with 4276 (5.3%) of general population controls (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 2.0; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.8-2.2). The risk was mostly confined to patients with substance abuse comorbidity (of whom 27.6% committed an offense), yielding an increased risk of violent crime among such patients (adjusted OR, 4.4; 95% CI, 3.9-5.0), whereas the risk increase was small in schizophrenia patients without substance abuse comorbidity (8.5% of whom had at least 1 violent offense; adjusted OR, 1.2; 95% CI, 1.1-1.4; P<.001 for interaction). The risk increase among those with substance abuse comorbidity was significantly less pronounced when unaffected siblings were used as controls (28.3% of those with schizophrenia had a violent offense compared with 17.9% of their unaffected siblings; adjusted OR, 1.8; 95% CI, 1.4-2.4; P<.001 for interaction), suggesting significant familial (genetic or early environmental) confounding of the association between schizophrenia and violence.
Divide and Conquer. They provide abstraction layers that you can individually reason about, individually implement, independently exchange... In the real world, no abstraction is perfect: There will always be "leaks" between the abstractions, optimizations that partially dissolve them etc., but it's a good principle and allows vastly more complexity than without.

The problem with the ISO/OSI model is less how to fit real network protocols into it, it's more that it actually was proposed as a model for real network implementations, but TCP/IP, which does not fit well into the model, grew and displaced most other protocols and became the de facto standard for networking. This happened for multiple complex reasons that are not all technical.

I don't see why rendering TeX formulas would be slower than rendering MathML. It should be possible to maintain implementations for both variants with similar performance. MathML's parser should be simpler though, cause it's XML, which already has many efficient parsers.
No, for several reasons.

First and most obviously, the purpose of this workshop was to further women's participation in high-energy physics (physics and computer science are the two most lopsided science fields; the need for need for more participation is obvious prima facie). It was not the purpose of the workshop to hash out Strumia's political beliefs, and had the workshop known what Strumia was going to present, they would have rejected it --- not for lack of truth, but for lack of relevance.

Second, Strumia's presentation was unserious. It was unserious because of the cartoons. It was unserious because of the invocation of "cultural marxism". It was unserious because it had a title chosen to obscure the purpose of the talk. It was obscure because it has a whole slide allocated to Strumia's grievance about losing an academic role to a particular woman. There can be value in presenting a contrarian point of view at a summit with almost any premise. There is no value in trolling a venue, which is what he did.

Third, as the sibling post observes, he was subsequently depantsed by his peers and sponsors, because he had neither the credibility in social sciences nor the credibility in his own field to be persuasive, and his underlying data did not rise to meet the dumb occasion he created for himself.

We're essentially recapitulating the argument HN had over Ted Hill's NYJM paper, which was, I think, a little embarrassing for the Ted Hill defenders on HN.

A pandemic flu really wouldnt be something we could cope with. The combination of a long contagious latent period and high R0 would be devastating, and we need to bat perfectly every time to stop it. Sure, we can stop things like MERS and SARS and H1N1, but it just takes one slipping through and our knowledge won’t matter. Besides, we literally can stop things like measles, but people are too stupid and superstitious!

It’s easy to look back on people who believed in the miasma theory of contagion, and laugh, but we haven’t come so far. We know our abuse of antibiotics is going to come home to roost, and we do very little to stop it. We know that cutting further into unspoiled habitats raises the risk of discovering something our immune systems have never encountered, but we do it.

A black swan event like 1918 would play out just the same today as any other time.

It's easy to blame tech. I'm someone who is borderline Millenial/Gen Z and I'm actually finding myself, both internally and externally, through the use of Twitter. Still very alone at times, think Mr. Robot, but I've actually found hope through the internet. Strangely enough, I had actually wasted time and developed maladaptive traits by trying to find myself in the "real" world, as in the people I was forced to bond with through school and sports.

My take on this is different and many people will disagree. Here it goes. The "intermediate layers and hacks in social interaction" you speak of isn't technology but actually our myths of diversity and multi-culturalism. Real multi-culturalism is really REALLY hard, might be impossible given human nature. The only diverse thing we can all agree on is ethnic food. The other is probably college, careers, etc. Everything else is gone. Our culture is absent of anything internal or metaphysic. Religion and local communities are gone. Political correctness destroyed art.

I'm happy that some people can thrive in this world and good for them. There's the other half who pretend to be part of the trend; the ones that feel isolated. Then there are those like me who are lost in this world. Don't need pity, I've decided to make my own.

>there was absolutley zero evidence tying me to the case

From your description it sounds like there was actually quite a significant amount of evidence (e.g. the testimony of one of the students).
Sure, it would. She could have turned over all reasonable photos between a range of dates, though.
Don't feel bad - I am in this situation as well. I believe your assessment is true in regards to the stereotype / first impression we make to hiring managers etc.

If I could go back in time I would have the done the bay area thing when I was young too. But, life is a bit of give and take - there are some good things that happened in my life not taking that course (even if they didn't all work out as planned). So you kinda have to appreciate those parts of life and accept the fact that you are maybe not in the financial situation you wish you were in.

The only guarantee we have in life is this moment :)
Having some unified concept of them is nice for trouble shooting and communicating concepts; especially in network design. Helps you understand what depends on what and in some cases what certain protocols are limited by (see: broadcast domains). I personally prefer the 5 layer TCP/IP model to the 7 layer OSI model. To me the Application, Presentation, and Session layers blur into one.

OSI model is very useful mental model for troubleshooting networking issues. Having a frame-work for where in the stack a protocol lies allows you to verify and eliminate lower-level protocols as a culprit.
Better not spread such nonsense. The numbers shared in other places in this thread just don't show the whole picture. Switzerland benefits in many both financial and other ways from the partnership with the EU countries (from more tourism to a seat at the table to access to many opportunities in research and more that would otherwise be closed).

What's the alternative? I have experience with a lot of programming languages and recently decided to use Java on the server side of a side project.

Java is fast, has amazing IDE support, large library ecosystem and it's a solid language. And yes, I stand behind the last claim, I don't understand why Java gets so much hate. Swift is the best-designed general purpose language I've used and it's not hugely better than Java.

BTW, part of the decision to use Java was that I'm very familiar with it and wanted to get started fast, but now I'm having second thoughts. I guess Kotlin would be a good choice? And maybe Swift but not sure about library ecosystem on the server.
Just find any decent programmer and have them learn Delphi as needed?

I mean, a lot of people program in a language they aren't familiar with because it has the best ecosystem for a given job or because the open source project they are modifying is written in that language.
You know, the BBC, and the 8,000 academics, including more than 450 major-university-affiliated high energy physicists, who signed an open letter condemning the presentation. But, sure, the BBC couldn't have helped.
As I understand it, state universities are bound by law a bit more than private ones.

I was adjacent to a similar situation that led to a student being improperly involuntarily committed. I got a real attorney involved and they eventually settled with the state for a full ride at a different state university. It took a long time though.
Keogh has produced a bunch of interesting work. Toward Parameter Free Data Mining is a gem: https://www.cs.ucr.edu/~eamonn/SIGKDD_2004_long.pdf Of course SAX is also super interesting: https://www.cs.ucr.edu/~eamonn/SAX.pdf
Edit, too late: of course 120:78 is not a 2:1 ratio; males are outnumbering females better than 3 to 2.
There are endless 'convenience' obscenities built into the consumer interface that could easily be eliminated through legislation. Many 'solutions' were invented up to a century ago, then discarded over the years (for convience/profit).

Example: boxes of bottled water sold in separate plastic containers. Replacement: go to a water distributor with a 5-gallon re-useable container. 'Inconvenient' to the consumer? Tough bounce.

Milk bottles ... soda bottles ...

Example: Grocery stores used to pack groceries into boxes products were shipped in. 'Want plastic or paper?' NEITHER. Consumer may choose to bring in/rent re-useable crates.

And so on. There are -endless- working solutions that will eliminate the massive costs of creating all of this waste and of disposing of it. WE have let this happen, and WE deserved the consequences.
I don't think she's clueless, because you can't take what she's claiming at face value. She's saying what's fashionable with the Democrat voting base. Anti-business has long been part of the platform.
Python's 79 columns is also insane. But at the same time, it's a weakly held opinion that's broadly overridden in the community. I think it's generally accepted as an obsolete idea.
If they don't ask then they don't plan on making changes to the code (even if they will, they're not _planning_ for it).

If they do ask then they are planning to make changes. If they're planning for that then it makes sense they would lean towards the most popular and easy to hire for languages.

Carbon credits are the Indulgences of the modern era. Now it's worry about harming the planet instead of worry of going to hell. My ethics happen to align with Martin Luthor on this topic.

I have some experience with this topic. I _did_ start a clean energy company that has had notable and measurable impact over the past ten years or so. And I have flown cross-country for work more often than I would like. It's justifiable to the extent the travel leads to benefits generated from the work. But the truth is that an honest personal accounting of this is difficult. In some cases, the travel is really valuable and in other cases we just want to imagine it is for ego-centric or other reasons. Regardless, flying first-class vs economy is really never needed for work purposes; it's purely a matter of luxury.

Causing harm for the purposes of luxury, attempting to buy your way out of it, and then claiming righteousness is, in my view, hypocritical.

I should mention that I am a fan of well-structured carbon offsets, but only when avoidance is really infeasible. But offsets do not justify waste in the same way that recycling does not justify greater consumption.
I meant speeding in a more general sense of driving faster than what's safe given the circumstances. E.g. you shouldn't get near the all-year limit if there's ice on the road. In dry lit summer conditions with nobody on the road you can drive much faster.

If you are driving during rush hour where everyone is stressful, then idiots will flash headlights, do risky behaviour, etc, that's true. And yeah, driving slightly over the speed limit to be consistent with the traffic around you is generally a good idea. But if they are too much over the limit, it's their doing, not mine, and if the risky behaviour causes an accident in which I'm involved, it won't be my fault if I'm following the rules. Conversely, no judge will accept it as an argument if you speed because of the idiots and you cause an accident.

I personally just let the idiots be idiots. Especially when the limit has a cause, e.g. a construction site or something: they put a lower speed limit for the safety of the construction workers. I won't compromise their safety, not a bit.
I think the word "bullying" is too amorphous to be useful. It would be more helpful to break down specific behaviors that describe the interactions between bosses and employees using those words. Accessible? Transparent? Consistent? Those a just a few that spring to mind.
What do racists and misogynists have to do with anything being discussed?

See, you’re doing it too. Maybe one day you can consider accepting the possibility that a non-racist, non-misogynist might wonder if race or sex can influence general outcomes in a given domain!

Personally, I find the idea that it can only influence athletic performance (which I understand is a difference that polite society allows us to acknowledge) to be extremely unlikely. I actually would rank “women, in general, are inherently better than men at <currently male dominated field>“ to be more likely than “in general, men and women are exactly the same”.
Heh... reminds me of a startup from the dotcom era that I joined right when they were burning through their last millions. It was a hosted service aimed at telcos and claimed to handle thousands of active sessions per box. Except it was written in Perl and in reality didn't scale beyond 10 or 20 sessions. But it didn't matter a bit, because they had no customers. So, yeah, Perl :)

The OSI model is a poor model for a world built on the 4 layer TCP/IP model.

Scientists Say They Can Recreate Living Dinosaurs Within the Next 5 Years (2015)
The Google style guide developed over time through iterations involving several thousand programmers. It's the culmination of all those programmers and operational aspects which got it to this point. So when you say it's 'opinionated', the data has said the styling in the document is the right thing to do.
Yes, and probably a much smaller pittance than that earned through ad revenue from the average brief visit, which means that this idea cannot succeed if it’s framed as an alternative to ads, unless a massive number of people are willing to pay for content with spare CPU cycles rather than with ad impressions. That seems highly unlikely for a number of reasons, chiefly that the demographic that would even understand the pitch is likely contained almost entirely within the demographic that uses adblockers.

A better strategy, then, would be to completely dissociate the idea from ads, and simply make it easy for content creators to ask users if they’d like to support their content via in-browser mining. Make it unobtrusive for viewers and both frictionless and highly configurable for creators. The goal should not be to maximize the number of viewers who consent, but to keep the potential loss in viewership and/or good will very close to zero. Let content creators decide how aggressively they want to pitch the idea to their viewers, with the default being about as aggressive as a small link off to the side soliciting donations.

The result would likely be an extremely high ratio of new widget installations to marginal unit of revenue, but it also wouldn’t totally crash and burn.
Go seems intent on relearning all the lessons of Java: e.g. you can’t have a useful statically typed collection library without generics.
Just to give some context, the paper referenced by the post[0] is a bit old. Eamonn Keogh is (to my knowledge) the current head of the research group that developed the Matrix Profile, which purports to be useful in clustering[1]. Actually on their main introduction to the MP[2] they use a chart to explain motif discovery and chains that is very similar to the one on section 6 of [0].

To be fair, I don’t remember any of the papers of the group explicitly discussing subsequence clustering, but one hopes they have advanced on that front.

I'm not suggesting he had to, just that he in several ways went out of his way to make sure nobody knew what he was going to say. It's not like the workshop accepted his talk knowing he'd be presenting a contrarian view; had they know, they would not have accepted him.
