On the one hand, yes, but on the other hand, this isn't a thing that should have to be a board of ed policy. At least where I live, the school board is unpaid volunteers, and it's already an absolutely thankless job. People I know who use Facebook tell me that the group for moms of local school-age kids is an absolute swamp of rage and misinformation. And if you've ever been to a series of school-board meetings on the same topic, you've probably seen the one angry community member who shows up every time to accuse the school board of corruption, incompetence, and lying to the public.
Well, especially since the Trump administration is again trying to zero out all funding to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting:

> “PBS and our 350 member stations across the country have earned bipartisan Congressional support over the years due to the high value the American people place on the services we provide their communities. For a modest investment of about $1.35 per citizen per year, public television provides school readiness for children, support for teachers and caregivers, public safety communications and lifelong learning through high-quality content.

> “For the 16th year in a row, Americans named PBS and member stations #1 in public trust among nationally known institutions. The same survey revealed that Americans rank PBS and our member stations second only to the country’s military defense in terms of value for taxpayer dollars. PBS and its supporters across every region of the country will continue to remind legislators that federal funding is critical for public television to do this essential work.”

While that is definitely a bad thing, the issue is about children. Children are covered under CHIP even if their parents don't get coverage under Medicaid.
If you have a lot of facts then you need indexes, otherwise you're scanning a lot of irrelevant data, many times over.
I don't think it is a stretch to say that this is likely because of the amount of sugar, so it seems irresponsible to pin it on just sugary drinks. It seems like a case of using correlation to make a news story when the causation could easily be reported on instead.
Can they not support both, while shipping the old one to still do supply chain optimization?
That still doesn't add up though. System call overhead is something like 500ns to 1usec depending on the call. Copying a large 1500 byte UDP MTU from ram is pessimistically along the lines of 2.5 usec (1500 bytes / 64 byte cacheline * 100ns L3 access).

So a simple UDP recv() + copy from network card buffer to userspace should be about 3-4usec. In the real world, it's more like 6 or 7usec the last time I timed it.

Admittedly, the unix API could use a refresh. A lot of unix calls like getaddrinfo are perfectly happy to allocate and give you a buffer. A "fast_recv" could easily do the same and just hand you a page from a kernel page pool directly that you then have to free.

By avoiding the buffer copying, you could get something in the same ballpark as kernel bypass but without all the bespoke code and frameworks in every application. And in the end, that's kind of the point of having an "Operating System" in the first place.
That would probably be illegal too. I'd have picked a heavier fine, personally.
RO, start-up-mode: 50-60 hrs; corporate (telco, fmcg, financial services): the usual 40 hrs/week.
Isn't this just due to the sheer number of users in that area? India is an extremely densely populated country (in the cities at least), and as more and more people get access to cellphones it's just going to get worse. There's only so much bandwidth possible with the frequency bands being used.
Note the two black wheels on either side of the center console. These spin and make a loud clacking sound when the stabilizer trim is running. It should have been quite obvious that the trim action was what was causing the pitch down.
Yes, the use of iPads has had a huge impact on aviation. Fancy built-in devices that cost $25k-80k to implement in the cockpit can be replicated on an iPad, and the mini is the best fit. A lot of pilots were really bummed when it appeared that Apple had given up on the mini.

Of course, it can't be used as a primary instrument since it's not certified, but it's amazing paired with ForeFlight so you can see synthetic visualized terrain (you're stuck in clouds, and want to see where the ground is), you can see where other planes are in the airspace, their altitude and direction via ADSB-in, you can do flight planning on it and easily pull approach plates or pull up airport diagrams, it allows you to see the terrain profile of a planned trip much more easily than referencing the charts, and it can serve as a backup to your primary instruments if you have an electrical or vacuum failure in the plane.
Instead of taking the discussion straight to toxic tropes, how about assuming good faith, as the guidelines ask? Here's the full version:

"Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith."

They also ask you not to snark, and not to post flamebait. (And personal attacks, which you unfortunately crossed into in this thread, are right out.)

Their "gross revenue" is $5m a month. Their part of that is 350 000$ a month (which is still their gross revenue, but I feel like that's what you meant).

> So I built Gumroad. Fast-forward over seven years and we're doing about $350,000 in revenue monthly, helping creators earn over $5,000,000 a month.
I think that technically isn't allowed, since the C standard requires single-byte representations of 26 uppercase + 26 lowercase + 10 numeric + 29 symbol + 1 space = 92 characters (and assorted (most of them useless) control characters), which don't fit in 64 values of a 6-bit byte.

It would interesting to see a CDC 6400 implementation of "like C, but we ignore the bit about character set and also the part where the compiler is a evil genie trying to screw you over", though.
Could you provide examples on how being bilingual has been invaluable to you?

I am only fluent in english, I live in a neighborhood where all restaurants answer the phone in spanish but there is usually a worker who speaks english to cover for me.

How do you feel being multilingual effects the way you think?
Alan Krueger, who chaired the White House Council of Economic Advisers under former President Barack Obama, has died. He was 58.

He served as an economist in the Labor and Treasury departments, specialized in workforce economics. He conducted influential research on the opioid epidemic and showed that raising the minimum wage need not cost jobs. His research on the value of an elite college degree was being cited last week in connection with the admissions fraud scandal.

Krueger also was a music fan who researched the increasingly winner-take-all economics in the entertainment industry — work that was featured in a speech he gave at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland.
Is there somewhere you can set up one of those tax-advantaged college funds such that others can easily add money to it? I can imagine grandparents and such adding money from time to time, maybe even not around holidays/birthdays, if it were a quick & painless process (no more painful than buying something on Amazon).

[EDIT] and I think it'd be an easier sell to discourage toy-giving. The world is drowning in toys for 0-5yo. If you're not too picky and don't mind used stuff you can stock a playroom for a kid in that range from Goodwill and garage sales (and maybe Ikea's toy section for a couple thing) for almost nothing.
I'm invested because I'm planning on having a kid. For the first year of my next kid's life there is no vaccine that can protect him/her from disease, except everybody else getting vaccinated.
Interesting to me personally because I'd never heard before that HSV-1 reactivation was stress-linked.
I'm no expert on this topic, but a brief google search produced this document which suggested to me that they often do:

I do see that this is for a system of charter schools, but don't see why that should make a difference.
I was certainly suspicious of their claims but I did not know that was typical anti-vaxer rhetoric. Good to know, thanks.
I don't have a good answer, but there does appear to be a history of using analog computing for financial modeling.

One famous example is the MONIAC, which used fluids to simulate the flow of money: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MONIAC

I wonder if 'fuzzy' or uncertain models like economic ones can tolerate or benefit from slightly less deterministic algorithms.

I'm actually a bit worried about the Red River in North Dakota. 1997 really was not very fun (well, the 96-97 winter was horrid). This rapid melt with too much snow and frozen ground is hitting a lot of places. My parent's place in MN had water coming in the basement apartment. It looks like the Twin Cities (MSP) have a large amount of flooding given how backed up the work crews and insurance adjusters are.
Because lack of vaccination is a really easy problem to fix, via vaccination. Indeed we have already succeeded in doing this many times in history. So it’s stupider and more frustrating that these diseases are coming back.

By contrast combating climate change is a huge and complicated problem with or without climate deniers screwing things up.
> It also felt like it was constraining the absolute amount of impact I had for the world.

It's refreshing to see people thinking like this. Maximizing impact is undervalued. For instance a lot of companies restrict themselves to one country thus dramatically reducing the maximum impact.
IMO this should not be a federal issue. Each state or school district can set their own rules (thus provide the option to parents).

This would pretty much make everyone happy. As most regions would setup the rules to best protect their children.

Now, I'll point out this is effectively is already a thing. You cannot attend school in many locations without getting your vaccines and / or providing a valid reason why you needn't have them. This is the beauty of living in a system which supports state rights. Similar to how Italy and France can set their own laws, so can the states in the U.S..
It's determined by each region. Here in Oregon/Washington we have medical exemptions, religious exemptions, and plain old "I just don't agree" exemptions (aka: personal exemptions). Hence why we had such a widespread recent measles outbreak.
Love this idea, but is this better done as part of, say, an existing linting framework? (update: oops, I thought this was about reading from your pg configuration file, not the live DB)

You could make use of things like IDE syntax highlighting, and in some cases, auto-fixing.

Glad to see they have a way to run it with docker, because I have too many bad memories of missing perl modules when trying to run perl scripts in the early 2000s (but that also tells you how outdated I am from perl-world)

Python urllib3 maintainer here. urllib3 made a change to be more RFC-compliant in December, and which fixed this issue, but that change has not been released yet. We are in the process of looking into that.

I have verified that Requests, which uses us, appears to have its own handling, back at least to requests 2.0 (released in 2013) that prevents this when used directly as an abstraction layer on top of urllib3.
Same in Cyprus. Every year you need to submit a registration form and the vaccination booklet. They will ask you to get any missing vaccines.
I moved to NYC from a tier 2 city and found the expectations tend to be about the same (~40 hours). That said, a city like NYC can attract and retain type-A people who work long hours, so I think on average NYCers work longer hours than my previous city.

> Do higher-salaried jobs require more hours

No, but moving up the management ladder can require more responsibility and hours.
In the USA, we have the idea of "informed consent" with regards to medical treatments. The ideal standard is that the doctor tells you what you have, and what ways there are to treat/manage it. Doing nothing is also an answer.

Vaccines are no different: some vaccines have some rather nasty side effects. Except in this country, under 42 U.S. Code § 300aa–22,

"No vaccine manufacturer shall be liable in a civil action for damages arising from a vaccine-related injury or death associated with the administration of a vaccine after October 1, 1988, if the injury or death resulted from side effects that were unavoidable even though the vaccine was properly prepared and was accompanied by proper directions and warnings."

Obviously vaccines don't cause autism. But there are cases in which they do have risk past simple dermatitis reactions. So why are those who are saying "No" being lumped in with "vaccines cause $___" unscientific know-nothings?
Water's a lot less cheap in actual deserts (like in Nevada and Arizona). Places with massive water surpluses (like what California could have) tend to end up selling their surpluses to places with water deficits, raking in cash that can go into all sorts of things that California wants to buy (like, say, high-speed rail connections between all the major cities).
This probably refers to TTL, which can be easily changed to disguise the 'hop' from your device to your phone... but Deep Packet Inspection is apparently commonly used nowadays too. To get around that you need to be encrypting with a VPN or similar setup.

This is my simplistic understanding of the state of play based on the last time I looked into it but as mentioned above it's easy to Google.
That was already happening. It was called red lining, and it meant as a bank you'd only approve loans for black families if they lived within the red line drawn by the bank on the map denoting the designated black neighborhood. Banks would also do something called blockbusting. They'd send panicked pamphlets to white people in urban neighborhoods, alerting them of black people moving into their neighborhoods and the damage that this could cause on their home value (the only asset many people had at this time).

Now suburbs were being built because in 1946, suddenly there were millions of young men with a huge government subsidy to buy a house. Banks would not approve mortgages for black people in these areas, so they became predominantly white. And as a white person you are happy to be in the suburbs where you are free of all the perceived fears from decades of racially charged propaganda, and surrounded by people who also have a white boy and a white girl, a new ford, a dog and a cat, and who go to the same protestant church. It was sold as a utopia, and in the case of Detroit, white people bought that narrative so hard the city lost 1.5m from its tax base and collapsed in fewer decades than it took to grow as a metropolis in the first place. To date, Detroit has lost over 60% of is population from its all time high in 1950.

I think the problem is that increasingly science ends up getting used like a human shield to justify government action. When this happens the science ends up getting distorted in both directions - deniers and "believers" - based not on any actual science but on one's political bubble preference.

If the data were available, it would be interesting to see the correlation between this distortion of science and the size of the government in relation to GDP.
Do you feel shame for your poor reading comprehension? I said nothing even close to that. I was well aware of these events and do not have any objection to being aware, but I didn't need to witness the murderers video. I speak only towards giving platform to terrorist videos. It seems like there is this idiotic idea that gore perpetrated by the filmer should be granted global freedom of speech and platform providers are infringing on this universal right. Which is dumb as fuck because such rights don't exist nor should they. Why do you get up in arms when these total shitheads aren't getting red carpet treatment?
It's well known that stress weakens the immune system[1]. So it's not a surprise that stress might encourage dormant infections (such as HSV-1) to enjoy a resurgence.

That's neither proof, nor convincing. Just claims.

Where most people who comment on HN live, deaths from climate change are a future possibility. Deaths from vaccine preventable illnesses are happening right now.

Also, solving climate change is a massive undertaking. Vaccines are a solved problem.
Me either, but I've always wondered:

Yes.

If a suspect nicely asks a police officer not to arrest them, and the officer complies, that's a failure of policing.

The only difference here is that the vulnerability of regulatory bodies to asking nicely is so well-recognized that it has a fancy name ("Regulatory Capture"), and is backed by loads of published research, and quite frankly is probably the reason that the business class even submits to this sort of regulation at all.
This happens to me constantly. I was going through 3-5 cables per year before I switched to inductive charging.

Lands warm up more than oceans. We're already past 1.5°C of temperature rise and we probably won't do anything to prevent 2°C. Most probably, we'll hit +3-+4°C in 2100. However even +2°C is a global average; oceans are cooler, and 75% of the surface. It can easily be +1°C on the oceans, and +5°C on land, averaging to +2°C.

The situation of complex systems such as climate, the world economy and global ecosystems doesn't simply gently degrade over time. There are quick, catastrophic changes that occur rapidly when reaching certain thresholds. So all could be mostly fine for 1 year, or 5, or 10, then collapse suddenly any time because we've gone through one particular threshold we don't know (ocean acidity, surface temperature, oxygen concentration, forests dying from the heat and becoming carbon sources, etc).

Prepare for a tough, violent future. Be scared to death.
You can't escape this context, sure. But I was hoping for expansion on the idea where the poster stated "They should be investigated if their parenting is so poor that they resort to physical violence against the child." ... to which my reply is to ask what the limits are.

I can certainly imagine scenarios where leading by the arm would be considered violence, as it can cause pain and has the potential to injure.
> ...there is some sort of media blackout on the 74-page manifesto ...Someone shot 50 people, left a detailed explanation, and no one can find out why.

There have been a bunch of articles about the manifesto. It’s not a detailed explanation. It is not at all like the manifestos of old such as the unibomber’s. It seems to be full of lots of contradictions and lots of memes and lots of things designed to spread. Based on what people have said in comments elsewhere you could read it and if you were looking for a motivation you’d find what you wanted to find. A left wing person might find right wing motivations. A right wing person would find he has left wing motivations. Etc.
Honestly, what they need to do is that if a parent refuses to vaccinate their kids, the parents should be given a life sentence in prison, and the kids should be given vaccines and new parents.

If the option to keep the kids out of school exists, people will take it. Half-measures like this are still going to result in more and more people dying of measles, whooping cough, and maybe even polio.
So did our reliance on a single all-in-one mini computer that we carry our lives, memories, photos and literally everything we do.

Simply examining the BOM cost should reveal the extraordinary amount of processing power, memory, optics, security and system integration that has taken place between $200 and $1000 phones.

So, a fair comparison would be to compare a phone from 2004:

$200 Phone

$200 Music Player

$400 Netbook

$300 Camera

-----------

$1100

Just ball park figures to make a point. I don't think Netbooks existed in 2004.

What the monks reported sounds like it might be consistent with the optical disturbances caused by superheated air:

> From the midpoint of the division a flaming torch sprang up, spewing out, over a considerable distance, fire, hot coals and sparks. Meanwhile the body of the Moon which was below writhed, as it were in anxiety, and to put it in the words of those who reported it to me and saw it with their own eyes, the Moon throbbed like a wounded snake. Afterwards it resumed its proper state. This phenomenon was repeated a dozen times or more, the flame assuming various twisting shapes at random and then returning to normal. Then, after these transformations, the Moon from horn to horn, that is along its whole length, took on a blackish appearance.

An air burst between observer and observed would move around on the wind, causing ripples to come and go.
