“In addition to the challenges of stunting and wasting, Asia and Africa are also home to nearly three-quarters of all overweight children worldwide, largely driven by consumption of unhealthy diets.“

I think in this case the link between obesity isn’t on the other side of the world, it’s that those with access to food in these locations don’t have access to healthy food.
Yeah, I thought this was a popular idea around here: ”We should have to explicitly opt-in to data collection, and when we do we should be compensated for our data!” Then Amazon actually does it and people are angry?

If anything, this is a great move in the right direction for both privacy and fair compensation: It’s opt-in (you’re opted out by default), AND you get monetary compensation!

What more could you want? More money? Yeah, but that could actually start to happen if a competitive market of such things grew (though I doubt that will happen so long as it’s legal to collect data without compensation or permission; for that we probably need regulation).

Regardless, $10 is far better than the $0 from others who take (and sell) your data without even asking first.

IMO the creepy and dangerous privacy violations come from the always-on tracking systems pervasive throughout the web from Google, Facebook, and others. With those, not only are they on by default without your permission, but you can’t opt out, and you receive no compensation!

There's precisely two ways of increasing the profit: 1) raise the prices, or 2) reduce the costs.

Amazon took the second route. They still can't automate everything. If they could, they'd do so already. Workers are what keeps Amazon alive today, even if that might not be the case in the future.
My personal experience with Pearson is somewhat limited--I temped for them as a copyeditor for about a year so about ten years ago--but this is not surprising. Even then they were already building the online material and pursuing draconian cost-cutting measures (my gig ended when the whole copyediting department got laid off). So if half their revenues are coming from digital now, that means the print books--which are very expensive--are less profitable. So not printing, warehousing, or shipping them saves a lot of money. Plus the staff needed to manage that.

They talk about using a wedge-like shield. A small angle can be shielded with a long wedge structure, the large surface area of which allows it to radiate the produced heat.

The spacecraft body is then placed some distance away, to fit within the expanding conical envelope of the shield.

Additionally, the space in between can contain a large radiator. By circulating coolant through the shield its mass could be reduced, as it would not need to radiate its own heat.
I wonder what actual camera they are using. Cineflex has a variety of options.

Or you could just not use Amazon at all until you feel that they're in line with what you expect of a company.

Consumer activism is a difficult set of choices. If you stop supporting by purchasing from a company, you run the risk of that company failing/struggling and things getting worse. If you do support them, you run the risk of allowing their behavior to get worse.

There's no objectively moral choice in a vacuum and points to be made for both actions. Be as informed a consumer as you can be and purchase mindfully. Speak with others about the issues you feel are important and try to improve things. That's really the best you can do.

You whooshed on the point. The obvious way to get some lard from the market is to hand Eustice 40 cents and send her off. The obvious way to let Ernesto play a game is to hand him your phone (no, it's not the only way, but be real: it's the obvious first choice for nontechnical users).

What's happened is that the default mode for usage has changed from "Here's a dollar for candy" to "Here's access to the family fortune". And that's bad. And it's not the fault of Ernesto's parents, it's the fault of the technology vendors.
> Corporations like recycling because it promotes growth -- the opposite of reduction.

Put a bit more directly, corporations like recycling because it shifts the burdens of waste onto consumers and society at large, while allowing them to continue pursuing growth and privately concentrating profits.
> Ruby on Rails comes to mind even though it is a language and a framework.

The same could be said of Elixir + Phoenix in 2019. In a lot of ways, Elixir macros and protocols give at least as much power in building DSLs as Ruby-style metaprogramming, but there's no magic and every single module reveals which macros it uses at the top.

It's not quite the stark trade-off Rails offered vs old school Java / PHP development in the mid to late 2000s, though. In that case there was a tremendous productivity advantage for using Rails to make a web app. Now, Elixir offers moderate advantages, that grow with project size but it's competing against already well-developed Rails and Laravel ecosystems which offer excellent productivity in their own right, plus an existing gem/library for "everything".

I love what Elixir's immutability does to make testing and handling larger projects easier and I'm glad to have learned it, but in all honesty I never would have if not for having been focused on a free to use chat app in 2016-2017.

I'm sorry I don't want to turn this into a back and forth internet debate but I feel like you're very deliberately missing the point.

Averages are an abstraction. People are real. "getting better" for those people means ... actually getting better. Its that simple. You're overthinking this and trying to apply mathematical models and abstractions, which don't get me wrong, are very valuable tools. But don't lose your anchor in material reality.

I don't think free trade between countries is so likely to foster peace. There are many examples, but "gunboat diplomacy" of the U.S. in Japan, and the Opium War in China, are two that come to mind. Even Russia's invasion of Ukraine was in large part because of the prospect of Ukraine joining the EU.

But, to your main point, most 3rd world countries don't have the resources to enforce or abide by 1st World EHS rules. That's understandable; we didn't have them in the 1st world when we were at those income levels, either. Plus, most of the trade between the 1st and 3rd worlds exists primarily in order to get lower costs, and most of those lower costs are due to the lack of EHS rules; if you eliminate the EHS arbitrage, you eliminate most of the trade. Which is fine by me, but just eliminating the trade directly is much more plausible than somehow forcing 3rd world countries to spend their money on 1st world levels of government regulatory apparatus.
Excellent step. I'm still a bit concerned about these countries' oversized share in the plastic pollution of oceans. While countries such as the US contribute almost nothing to plastic waste in the oceans, the majority of it comes from China, India, Indonesia and Africa.

I wonder if there are plans to redirect any funds spent on recycling and eco-conscious consumption in developed countries towards better collection of plastic waste in developing countries.
Surely it can, it's just a case of finding the balance point? [Ignoring macroscopic effects of the Earth rotating, etc.]

Cengage pissed me off in that I had to purchase access to the online system in order to do my homework (organic chemistry course).

You have to be going ~160 mph for several minutes to induce the overheat power reduction mode. In the US it would take driving on an oval racetrack.

FWIW, I purchased a Tesla Model 3 LR edition back in September 2018 with enhanced auto pilot and later added in full self driving at the 2k discount price in 2019. So that car would have be $57,500 for which I took the $7500 Federal Tax Credit on.

The LR is no longer so I would end up with an AWD which I would not want, but if equipped as before it would be $54,990. This used to be a $5000 option over the price of the LR. If my TM3 were totaled today I would not buy one if I had to choose AWD, first it is a feature I have no use for where I live nor do I want the efficiency loss compared to the LR.

So has there been much movement?

TBH, in a few years my replacement likely will not be a Tesla, there are many things to like about the TM3 but road noise and lack of full blue tooth audio support are issues I will not suffer long. This company has its priorities ass backwards at times, apparently fart gags and video games are more important than delivering promised voice commands and then doing a proper blue tooth audio stack. When 20k cars do both features better its disappointing.

>The tesla adverts can stop now.

Sam Altman has openly condemned critics for being "in it for the money", while those who own the stock long are just good people fighting climate change. This is seen as a battle ground, so it's not a surprise. You cannot criticize Tesla in certain circles:

"It's gross seeing so many root against Tesla. Be the person on the side of the climate and innovation, not the person hoping to make money on puts."

Even if you take into account the emergence of recording and distribution, the effect is still present.

Musicians that record their music and sell it on CDs or Spotify have become more productive, for the reasons you state.

But concert orchestras, who are paid only for live performances, also earn more than before, even though their productivity in unchanged. If their income didn't go up, they would shift to a (more productive) recording industry job.
Should save energy in all climates. White is generally highest reflectance and lowest emissivity (depends on material obviously) compared to say black, so in hot climates it won't absorb as much heat, and in cold climates it won't radiate as much out.

I don’t think that there is much evidence of being excessively against China; I remember one incident suggesting the opposite.¹ There are certainly more establishment voices in the opinion pages than elsewhere, but they are on the liberal side of the establishment camp; the editor, for example, has attacked the government’s intransigence in the handling of the extradition bill, but is generally pro-establishment.

Those observations are also consistent with "Inverting cause and effect", but not in your position's favour. So one should want to investigate the directions of causality etc., instead of assuming.

We might be talking past each other, but that doesn't mean we don't disagree, because I don't agree with this:

> For the consideration what negative effects there are, there are ethic boards, as its generally considered unethical to make that consideration alone as a stakeholder.

A well trained ethics board might be a nice institutional tool to provide a documented ethical evaluation one can start with, but it of course does not in any way relieve anyone involved from their moral agency or the need to assess their actions "alone".

I'm also in strong opposition to the idea that it's unethical to make ethical considerations alone, as a stakeholder or not. Generally: delegating ethical responsibility of ones own action to a hierarchy is IMO very unethical, no matter how the industry handles it.

> Forgoing the conclusion of that consideration doesnt mean we didnt need an ethics board in the first place.

In my earlier comments I wasn't writing (or thinking) about whether we(?) need ethics boards or not and I do think that this is a different topic, but: We don't strictly need ethics boards, right? It's not something like human agency. They're a nice attempt to increase checks and balances in an institutionalized manner, not some kind of moral requirement.

> There are two distinct questions here, what are the ethical concerns for the study and should there be an ethics board involved in finding an answer to the first question.

There I agree, except that the ethics board can not answer the first question for the researchers. But that aside: Yes, the demand of seeking counsel can be morally justified.

> Since we are talking about long term impact on peoples behavior, i think you can make a case that not considering the ethical aspects of that impact on unknowing test subjects is generally unethical?

I think this is the essence of the question. I don't know of any ethical difference between long and short term impact, so I'd cut that out. I don't think that the test subjects knowledge would change anything in that regard, but tell me, if I'm wrong here. All shortened it would leave us with:

You should ethically consider your impact on test subjects.

Which I would agree on. Let's hope they've considered it in an appropriate manner.

I just thought that there is some material concern - like an actual moral wrongdoing - they've done, instead of just a concern that they might not have been concerned.
My examples are so bad that you had to deliberately mischaracterise the first and third, and completely ignore the second.

Kudos.
A subtle point not really mentioned or brought out. These vectors are 300 dimensional, and once you perform an "analogy " of "X - Y + Z = W" its almost certain that W does not exactly match anything in your vector space (probability of overlap is almost certainly zero). That means you must have an algorithm for choosing which non-matching word to pick. The point of the article is that if you pick strictly the closest one (in terms of euclidean distance in the space) then you usually end up back where you started. There are many measures that could be used, and who is to say that distance along all dimensions are equally important?

In 3d space for example (much simplified from 300d), things that are separated along a vertical axis are usually very different in kind than things separated even by a great distance on the horizontal axis (100m below you is likely to be much different from 100m in front of you).

Or imagine a sky scraper most of the "sameness" lies in a small horizontal region (one block say), but a vast vertical region (100 stories).

This is a simplified analogy to word vectors, but the point is that because two words are "close" in 300d space, if we don't understand what those dimensions mean, we can't say which one is more likely to be "similar" for a specific pair of words (King/Queen vs Mouse/Cat). Using euclidean or cosine similarity may or may not be relevant for one particular case.

At first I'd have to look at the little arrow on the fuel pump symbol, but early on, I made the joke to myself that the fuel port is "'pon the left hand side" (like that song "Pass the Dutchie").

Now to this day, when I pull into the gas station and momentarily think "what side is it again?" I immediately remember "'pon the left hand side".

It's kind of ridiculous but it amuses me.
