I completely agree with your assessment, but I find it troubling that the government has incentivized the idea that “homes are an investment that should always go up.” While less so in California, municipalities typically have a short-term incentive to support high prices through property taxes, although society would net benefit by putting capital to more productive assets.

So international criticism was a potent enough deterrent in this case that forced Japan to change their policy. It then makes me wonder why Japan hasn't made similar changes in their whaling policy after all the international criticism directed at them. Could it be that we are doing it wrong and when it comes to social issues, criticism is not an effective tool and an altogether different approach is needed?

These 'minimal chess' programs trace their lineage (and mostly their rules) back to ZX Chess [0] for the ZX81, which was a significant accomplishment, and remains notable in the history of personal computing, cropping up from time to time in lists of the greatest program ever written. It says this at the top of the page.

It is not a naive prototype. I'd be very surprised if the programmer couldn't play chess. It's a part of computing history. And the competition to reduce the number of bytes is > 35 years old.

I haven't seen the code, but maybe c&p-ing the C entrant into the C++ box to get performance parity would make the C++ entrant run afoul of typical C++ coding conventions.

(You can then have a debate about whether you want to see idiomatic C++ in benchmarks or purely the most performant C++ possible. Personally if I'm shopping for a language for a project then I'm far more likely to be interested in the former.)

> “But there’s a problem: statistical control–at least the way people typically do it–is a measurement-level technique. Meaning, when you control for the rate of alcohol use in a regression of cancer on bacon, you’re not really controlling for alcohol use. What you’re actually controlling for is just one particular operationalization of alcohol use–which probably doesn’t cover the entire construct, and is also usually measured with some error.”

I strongly suggest reading the comment on that page from one of the authors as well.

हृदय रोग

हृदय शरीर का एक महत्त्वपूर्ण अंग है। मानवों मेंयह छाती के मध्य में, थोड़ी सी बाईं ओर स्थित होता है और एक दिन में लगभग एक लाख बार एवं एक मिनट में 60-90 बार धड़कता है। यह हर धड़कन के साथ शरीर में रक्त को धकेलता करता है।हृदय को पोषण एवं ऑक्सीजन, रक्त के द्वारा मिलता है जो कोरोनरी धमनियों द्वारा प्रदान किया जाता है। यह अंग दो भागों में विभाजित होता है, दायां एवं बायां। हृदय के दाहिने एवं बाएं, प्रत्येक ओर दो चैम्बर (एट्रिअम एवं वेंट्रिकल नाम के) होते हैं। कुल मिलाकर हृदय में चार चैम्बर होते हैं। दाहिना भाग शरीर से दूषित रक्त प्राप्त करता है एवं उसे फेफडों में पम्प करता है और रक्त फेफडों में शोधित होकर ह्रदय के बाएं भाग में वापस लौटता है जहां से वह शरीर में वापस पम्प कर दिया जाता है। चार वॉल्व, दो बाईं ओर (मिट्रल एवं एओर्टिक) एवं दो हृदय की दाईं ओर (पल्मोनरी एवं ट्राइक्यूस्पिड) रक्त के बहाव को निर्देशित करने के लिए एक-दिशा के द्वार की तरह कार्य करते हैं।

हृदय की मांसपेशिया जीवंत होती है और उन्हें जिन्दा रहने के लिए आहार और ऑक्सीजन चाहिए। जब एक या ज्यादा आर्टरी अवरूद्ध हो जाती है तो हृदय की कुछ मांसपेशियों को आहार और ऑक्सीजन नही मिल पाती। इस अवस्था को हार्ट अटैक यानी दिल का दौरा कहते हैं। ( इस सिलसिले में कुछ लोगो को भ्रम हो सकता है कि दिल से संबंधित और भी समस्याएं होती हैं जैसे – हार्ट वॉल्व की समस्या, कंजीनाइटल हार्ट प्रॉब्लम आदि, और जब हम दिल की बीमारियों की बात करते हैं तो आमतौर पर इन्हें शामिल नही किया जाता परन्तु यह समस्याएँ भी हृदय रोग से सम्बंधित होती है)

Nice! So you've built "non-realtime email" which gets delivered once a day. Maybe it would make sense to bundle it with its opposite: "realtime texting". Basically it would work like phone calls, but for text. One person initiates with a wordless ping, the other responds, then they can exchange texts, there can be at most one conversation per person at a time, and if you close or unfocus the app for any reason, the conversation stops.

I think these two things together could cover most of my personal communication needs, though it for work communications I'd still need faster-than-daily email.
Well this is pointless. I get that they need to keep relevance and clicks going but the entire earphone/headphone industry is disposable outside of a few pro grade (usually including custom fittings) products that make up a tiny and incredibly expensive segment of that market that Apple is not targeting.

It could be that the world is doing it wrong by eating cows instead of whales. :)

They're direct contributors to global warming and rainforests are being clear cut to make way for pastures. In contrast, the whales that Japan harvests, minke whales, aren't endangered, their consumption has negligible impact on the environment, and they're quite delicious.

I grab whale sashimi whenever I see it at the supermarket and I keep a couple cans in my cupboard just in case I get a craving. I don't eat it often due to the risk of mercury accumulation, but I can't think of a good reason to not eat it every now and then. From an environmental standpoint, it's also preferable to fish, since trawling absolute destroys environments and nets as a whole end up killing a lot of "waste" fish and dolphins that people won't eat. Whaling is targeted and doesn't really have much collateral damage in comparison.
A great many people use cases for their phones.

Fantastic. My favourite terminal I worked on was the amber-colored vt320 hooked to a sun box and sometimes to an sgi. There was something special to it, even 'back in the day'.
The headline has been chosen to strongly imply causality, but the author has made sure to not actually claim that. (Likewise, in the main text (my emphasis): "The policy initiative... follows criticism that Japan is reluctant to break with such power generation...") And of course, the author had complete freedom to choose a totally different potential cause to juxtapose with this policy change, and so could tell just about any story they wanted regardless of the facts.
Oh, interesting, didn't know that they "create" a new Kanji with the sum of all the possible kanjis in the Era name. Two questions:

- Should I be safe in the way that, even in my software doesn't support that unicode version, or my font doesn't have that symbol, I'll at least get a "notdef" or whatever symbol and not break everything?
- what if the new name is composed by just one Kanji? Is it getting an unicode symbol anyway? Is it considered a different Kanji?

The machine doesn't have error messages for machine code. And it would be a waste of space to code a graceful endgame state. In the larger version it changes border colour and reinitialises the board. In the smaller version, it just blows the call stack (edit: with an unexpected return value), and that is interpreted by the machine (which has no clue whether it's running BASIC or not) as the error given.
Have you ever tried fumbling with cables in the dark when going to bed? It’s not a huge thing, but wireless charging is a nice quality of life improvement. Try using it for a couple weeks and it will be hard to go back.

The other small benefit is less wear on the charge port. It’s not such an issue for usb-c or lightning ports, but micro usb ports have terrible reliability in my experience. All my android devices developed a broken micro usb port after a year or two of plugging it in over and over.
does anyone know if astro navigation systems deduce time from star transits (or rather generalized star transits, so they don't need to actually be momentarily collinear, i.e. a database of stars with their distances included)?
Connector wear and obstruction is real and can make charging or wired interaction extremely hard or even impossible. Connectors also have a lifetime.

For example, my phone's (Samsung Galaxy S6) port has dirt in it that I can't get out, some micro USB connectors wont fit and all of them don't stick in and readily fall out. This is one of the reasons I absolutely loathe and hate micro USB. It's just an extremely bad connector.

Compare this with my Surface Pro 3 (or the magnetic Mac chargers): the magnetic charger is wonderful and Just Works.

Wireless charging is the next step. Sure, you need the pad and it's not as readily movable but damn it's effortless.

Personally I'd prefer magnetic connectors, though.

The decision may have more to do with plans to bring back online nuclear power generation capacity that was offline since 2011. Majority of coal-fired power generation capacity was already idle and being mothballed before 2011. Only reason a lot of coal-gen capacity was restarted after 2011 because there was no other option for producing electricity as nuclear power accounted for most of the supply.
The article also links to an iFixit teardown of the Galaxy Buds, which got a much better repairability score. They’re very similar products, I think that’s a fair comparison.
I love that book. I loved that the ships could send text messages across 10,000 light-years, provided the receiving end had an antenna swarm with the mass of a planet.

He played with the idea in at least one other story that I'm aware of, a short story where a human scientist on a planet just inside the Slow Zone (where no FTL is supposed to be possible) acquires a device from the Transcend (where FTL and AI are apparently trivial). The device is a terminal connected to a transcendent intelligence, and it can send and receive a few bits per second via FTL, even in the Slow Zone. Using those few bits it's able to transmit natural-language questions, and reproduce the answers to those questions, but the scientist can't decide whether he can trust it. Can the AI really model him well enough to understand his questions using that tiny amount of information? Can the answers coming back be anything but random? And then the solar weather starts acting a bit unusual...
So I used to think the same until one day I dramatically learned the utility of wireless charging.

I was traveling on a 30 hour journey with two airplane changes from Asia to the US. Some combination of temperature and humidity changes led to condensation in the charging port my phone basically refused to charge from USB C irrespective of what I tried to dry it out. I barely managed to save enough battery to send a "arrived safely" msg home and book an Uber to the hotel since I landed close to midnight. I could buy a cheap burner phone the next day but all data is on my regular phone. I luckily found a mobile store carrying a wireless charger and was able to get my phone going again.

It's happened a few more times and now I never travel without the wireless charger.
