It's not on the same scale as hearing voices, but when I was young (5-10 years old) I remember occasionally being otherwise calm but overcome by what I can only describe as a bit of a bad auditory trip. I would be speaking casually with my older sister in the car, for example, and the voices on the radio would become distinctly sinister for a while (30sec) although the content itself wouldn't change.

I remember being able to recognize the feeling when it was coming on and actually slightly enjoying the moment as I knew it would pass soon enough. I'd talk to her about it at the time and let her know when it was happening - just to share the moment rather than anything else.

It never scared me, but I wonder if anyone is aware of if it's something that has a name and is known to happen from time to time in otherwise stress-free and healthy children?

It stopped completely well before I entered my teens.

The best way to describe it would probably be the auditory effects of strong marijuana for someone who doesn't smoke much, but without any of the clouded thinking or stoned-ness
Oh, I see! I thought you meant that you'd actually experienced getting chili pepper in your eyes during an earthquake.
This is a perfect example of what I hate about some tests.

Didn't quite know the purpose of the test, there's a difference between code for any machine and any compiler and gcc running on some vanilla x86, which is pretty common, and could have been the content (ex: you say it's undefined, that's obvious, everyone knows that already, but it's still deterministic... Here's a breakdown of what happens in practice, blah blah blah). There's a real difference between the kind of "knowing" here and say the kind of "knowing" with unallocated pointers.

If it said "esoteric implementation on exotic hardware" then it's easy, you know what they are trying to do. If it said C89 you also know what's up. But how it's presented, it's a guess.

This was endemic throughout schooling. Instructors would say "just do your best" and I'd be like "wtf? There's like 2,3, maybe 4 perspectives on this with different answers depending on how clever you're trying to be or what you're trying to get at... Might as well put "I'm thinking of a number 1 through 5" on the exam".
I've been visiting the St. Lawrence river downstream of the Great Lakes since the 1970s. My mother grew up in the era before the Saint Lawrence Seaway was established in the 50s, which made the river navigable by larger ships (although not container ships) below the Thousand Islands to Montreal and the Gulf of St. Lawrence, opening up the Great Lakes to international shipping and trade.

The river used to be filthy. Lots of industry on the U.S. and Canadian sides and in the Great Lakes dumped all kinds of untreated waste into the ecosystem. I also remember a major oil slick which I believe was caused by a maritime accident. This was before the advent of better navigation technology and environmental protection laws.

The water may have become cleaner over time, but I noticed that by the early 2000s, the types of fish that I had caught off the dock by the dozens as a child in the 70s and 80s -- perch, sunfish, bass -- were becoming extremely rare. Ten years later, these shore species had all but disappeared except for a few bays and harbors.

The disappearance of these fish coincided with the appearance of the zebra mussel. The lore told here is that the zebra mussels were carried over by Ukrainian freighters in the 1990s (similar to the story in TFA). But other new species have appeared on the river, too -- cormorants, carp, and Canadian geese are very visible now, and they weren't in the past.

We also seem to have more extreme variations in water levels, with flooding this year and in 2017, and very low levels in other years. Surely that impacts water temperature and breeding conditions for some aquatic species.

I think some people blamed the zebra mussels and the cormorants for the disappearance of many species of fish, but I think there's a larger story taking place, with many factors contributing to changes in the ecosystem.
What’s amazing about that is the unnecessary or excessive packaging becomes evident.

Underdeveloped nations haven’t yet gotten in the bad habit of wrapping everything in plastic. Grains are in reused sacks, meat is straight from the butcher. I mean, sure I get egg cases and wrapped meats. But some places put vegetables and fruits in styropacks.... why?

Funny. My first thought of question one is we'd need to make assumptions about which architecture we're working on to know this answer. By the time I got to question 3, I realized the author's trend. This is both the curse and blessing of C, a language that gives you just barely a high level translation layer over the raw silicon.

The shutdown of industry and decline of agriculture stopped additional pollution, but Zebra mussels are great at utilizing phosphorus, which when present at high levels reduces oxygen in the water.

Shellfish like oysters are present in the San Francisco bay too. They are a key part of the lifecycle, and the colonization of Lake Eire by the mussels helped other life appear.

It’s also hilarious to declare the mussels invasive. The lake was a pitiful, dead environment. Any life is invasive.
Somewhat related, my introductory classes involved a lot of games around pre- and post- increments and short circuiting. While I get that understanding these operations is fundamentally important, is understanding ridiculous combinations of them important? I mean, these were the basis of large portions of some quizzes and midterms. I get playing with them from a theoretical perspective, as this can literally be done in many languages, but why force freshmen to play this deep mental gymnastics? Maybe a play at making the classes weeder classes and no other reason.
But you _don't_ know what it returns, because the behavior is either undefined or implementation defined, and you don't know the implementation.
Airbags were mandated because not enough people wore seatbelts.

I'm not saying airbags are worthless, they're not - they work, but is the reduced injury in most cases worth the cost? I don't know - when worn with a Seat Belt, Airbags don't generally save lives, but they reduce injury level - the core issue is, we pass regulations with the idea that everything we do ought to be perfectly safe.

A good example is backup cameras, a backup camera adds somewhere between 250 and 1000 dollars of cost to a car, yet only about 200 people or so a year are killed in such a way that they might have been prevented by backup cameras. We sell 17 million cars a year or so every year, which means, the added cost of backup cameras is somewhere between 4.25 and 17 million dollars a year - meaning assuming the regulation 100% effective, we spend 21,250 to 85,000 dollars per death prevented - most of which could be prevented if the operator of the vehicle just did a walk around before pulling out of a parking space. Is that 17 million a year well spent? Airbags lead to a similar set of questions, is the cost injuries prevented enough to offset the cost of the airbags?

I don't know, I would suggest we should be asking these questions, rather than just scream 'for the children' and put another rule in place - because in the end all of these rules add a cumulative cost - and the poor pay it first. Bear in mind, I'm not suggesting we get rid of all emissions and safety standards for everything, I'd just like some more choices in what I find acceptable for my personal risk level - I, for example, might not buy a car with 16 airbags or however many you can get now - I might chose to only buy an option with two airbags, or none at all (one of my cars is without airbags). Similarly I might chose a backup camera as an option, because it will save me body damage when backing in or out of parking spaces - but I should still get that choice.
You might be able to convince a lot of cryptocurrency adopters to switch to coins that were based on a useful proof-of-work (sometimes called "proof-of-useful-work") even if the kind of useful work that secures the coin isn't one that many people are currently paying for. After all, some present and prospective adopters care a lot about externalities, whether ethically or out of fear of future regulation or marketing.

A wonderful case would be where biomedical research somehow had an unlimited and ongoing need for solutions to arbitrary, random simulation tasks (where it was also relatively easy to confirm the correctness of an alleged solution). This doesn't really seem to be the case, but cryptocurrencies' impact and popularity would be improved quite a bit if it were!

Another way to look at this is that Apple takes risks, which sometimes don't work out. But sometimes they do, and so Apple tends to give new features or products enough time for the answer to become clear.

I'm old enough to remember the outcry when the "chiclet" keyboard style replaced the older mechanical keyboards across the line, even for desktop machines. Those complaints faded in time, and now apparently people remember the chiclets fondly compared to the new keyboards!

For what it's worth I just got a laptop with the new keyboard and although it's louder, I love the feel of it. But--I have not had any keyboard problems yet. If I do, I'm sure I'll be pissed about it. (Hoping that I won't though...)

That's the one where I wanted most to quibble with the "explanation" of why there is no set answer: To me, the top of the line answer is that the value of the string constant ' ' as an integer is implementation-defined (or maybe it depends on the execution environment? See, I'll get the precise wording wong too); anyway, space is 32 in ASCII but 64 in EBCDIC. The most you could say is that it's not zero (and maybe that it's not -1? I'd have to check how EOF is defined)..

The code is undefined, but "I don't know." is still the correct answer for what happens to the variable.
By that logic, someone who says "the origin of handedness is unknown" contradicts himself, since he does know the origin of handedness to be "unknown".
> The views expressed in The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind employ a radical neuroscientific hypothesis that was based on research novel at the time, and which is not now considered to be biologically probable
A summary video by the paper's authors, with examples: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1b5aiTrGzY
I don’t think you need to posit bicameralism to salvage parts of this theory. People developed language gradually, and I’m sure there was a period of time where it sat uneasily in the mind, and then a point in time where people had something like an internal monologue for the first time, and without having any theory of consciousness or souls or the brain or anything of the kind, it must have been a world shattering, all consuming miracle for the first people that experienced it.

It makes sense to me that some people would have externalized the source of it and understood it to be spirits or gods or ancestors or whatever kind of disembodied force, and imagine being the first person who could understand it, and control it and help others achieve it — imagine the power and respect that gets you — unlocking a kind of consciousness or divinity in other people. You can see how priesthoods develop from it.

Think about that and go back and read Genesis, and think about how it’s a story about naming things, and categorizing things, and learning about the world. And how it’s knowledge that drives people from a state of paradise, an enternal now where there is no passage of time, no thought, no awareness of ones own mortality.
I was in Churchill Manitoba in November one year - it was -30C outside. The local store had an ice cream freezer with the Good Humor branding on it. It seemed very appropriate. Outside the window you could see frozen Hudson Bay stretching to the horizon.

There's something at play that causes precision ground surfaces to stick together. Oil certainly plays a part, but there's a point that when two surfaces are flat enough, they'll stick hard in place, and there's a "crack" moment when twisting them apart.

Around a decade ago, I worked in a machine shop.
Mill table surfaces are ground flat. Not precision surface flat, but good enough to be a reference for cutting tools. Mill vise clamping surfaces are ground flat. It's normal for an object that's at least cut (not even ground) flat on one side to get hydraulically suctioned via cutting oil to either of these. It's usually easy to slide the part off to the edge of the surface.

Very flat surfaces do this as well, but with a little more encouragement to work out oil from between parts, they'll start to stick in place. The more finely ground and flat each side is, the more pronounced the sticking moment will be. Extremely finely surfaced blocks being wrung together will frustrate you by sticking before you have them lined up the way you want them.

This made me suspicious of the role that surface tension and vacuum played. Hydraulically stuck things are easily separated by a quick blast of compressed air. Wrung blocks aren't as easily separated by a blast of air. I tried to clean blocks as devoid of liquid as possible and wrung them together. They still stick, but it's not as secure, and they come straight apart the moment they're twisted apart.

After this, it seemed that wringing blocks together worked best with a trace of oil. Brief cleaning with a dry rag does leave a trace, and if the surfaces are flat enough, perhaps that trace is enough to fill some microscopic voids between flat-ground surfaces. Twisting blocks together encourages entrapped air to escape, and can shuffle trace oil into voids. The solution I came up with is that the metal of the two blocks does stick together somehow once it's in contact, and the surface tension provided by a trace of oil contributes additional sticking force where the surfaces don't meet.

We didn't have ceramic blocks, though. It might be an interesting additional experiment to try this with mixed materials. Does wringing together ceramic and steel precision surfaces work the same way? Should it? What would that mean?
I hate to say it, but I agree with Jane Goodall. Logically, I know Sasquatch doesn't exist. But I want to believe it does.

Well, then a better choice would be "I can't know."

I agree, you can argue that it's unspecified, undefined, or whatever. It might not be well defined by the C specification, but none of these programs produce surprising output. Programming in the real world requires that you are able to read and write code like this, even if it requires that you investigate (and depend) the specific behaviour of your compiler/platform.

I was no aware the UK does not require that you carry ID. I'm not sure how I feel about that law, in my experience most of the world requires you to carry ID. I don't see it at all unreasonable that an adult be required to carry ID at all times. I am Canadian by birth and Canada has the same policy but in practice it is best to carry your ID. I've live around the world and everywhere that I know of outside of europe and the english speaking world requires you to carry some form of government issued ID.
That's very typical of programs using a GUI platform. One way or another you have to kick off an event handler, whether it's TKinter or Qt or in this case, GTK. The event handler runs independent of your code and has to be told when to quit. I have to agree that

GTK.Alert("Hello world!")
-> signal_connect("destroy", lambda(){ exit(0); });

does seem to be less than intuitive and not a pretty thing to drop into a hello-world tutorial!

Unlike antivax, Bigfoot is fun to believe in. This isn’t science—it’s mirth.
They are roughly equivalent to read; but the reason for that is that the first code sample is clearly someone unwinding something that they are conceptualising as a piped statement. If you aren't conceptualising the code as an unwound pipe, you'd have to actually inspect the code and think about what each function argument means rather than being confident it is a set of chained transforms as you can be by glancing and seeing a %>%.

I'm a bit suspicious about that coincidence - after I met the pipe operator, a lot of my code looks like that. Before I met the pipe operator, not very much of my code looked like that.

As long as people are thinking in pipes then they can choose if they value making commenting code cheap vs making reading/typing code cheap. But it is quite important that beginners are introduced to pipes as a concept as they learn R. The semantics are critical, using the syntax is optional.
