It is completely unimaginable for OpenBSD to have Firefox in the base system. This is a very big misunderstanding of what goes in base vs. ports tree. Even with all the sets, the OpenBSD system without any ports is small compared to, say, a typical Linux distro.
I understand what you mean, but the problem is that first person accounts are so idiosyncratic and situation-specific. It takes a lot of discipline to distill only the most well-supported high level themes from a set of anecdotal qualitative data.

The discussion also is at high risk of becoming politicized, where more credence will be given to salient first-person accounts that happen to fit well into some prevalent social narrative of the times.

If you can prove that a lot of care was taken to avoid these types of bias in extracting summaries from a collection of qualitative data, then it can be valuable. But often this means you have to be so cautious and err on the side of rejecting all but the most consistent summaries from the data that you run afoul of critics who want the data to be used to support their preferred political narrative.

This risk of subverting qualitative data like this into a disingenuous claim that something is data-driven is really high, in addition to all the usual cognitive biases that lead people to read what they want into narrative accounts.

Why is it upsetting? Lots of playgrounds around here, especially at schools, have moved entirely to shredded rubber instead of wood mulch, almost entirely due to safety concerns.

I don't see the concern over safety, given all the rough housing I did as a kid at just such a playground, but if it brings peace of mind, I don't see why it would be upsetting to anyone.

A fully realized s&p 500 ex-FOO fund for every company (or every combination of two or three companies) would probably not have sufficient demand to make it efficient.

You would need to have some sort of clever accounting to make it work, although, while retail commissions are at zero, and fractional shares may become available, assembling your own index fund may be possible with only a significant time cost.

a large percentage of men are totally removed from the dating market, they do not have sex, they have no hope of getting into a relationship

Well perhaps if they were in the dating market, they'd have a bit more hope of a relationship. This is like not buying a lottery ticket and then complaining about not winning. This is both true - if you don't enter a competition you simply can't win - and unpopular.
I think how locked down the hardware is/was didn't really help, it was an also ran already way behind in market share and that's a hard position to be in. If it was easier as an end user to get software onto the thing or use a non-microsoft store for apps, it could have seen better interest.

"The CDC attributes the recent surge in STDs to decreased condom use, increased drug use, poverty and cuts to prevention programs run by state and local health departments. In recent years, the agency reports, more than half of local STD programs have experienced budget cuts that led to clinic closures, as well as reduced screening and patient follow-up.

Federal spending has also been curtailed.

“In the federal government, there is one dedicated STD funding line, and that is the line item in the appropriation bill funding the division of STD prevention at the CDC,” said David Harvey, executive director of the National Coalition of STD Directors. “That appropriation has been whittled away over the last 18 years.”"

Seems we know what the solution to the puzzle is.

About That Whole 'We're Going to the Moon in 2024' Thing
This article is quite fascinating. See some parallels to Elon Musk’s story. Intense curiosity of youth, building a business early, any business, and using that money to finance future businesses. Also, I see evidence in Edison of first principle thinking.

Funny Edison’s rivals last name was Tesla ;-)

Also amusing that he had a lab in Menlo Park, but the New Jersey one ;-) It became Bell Labs, which paved the way of research labs as an idea, leading to Xerox Parc, then the PC and Arpanet. Wow!

Thought experiment, what would a modern, open source “cross-disciplinary invention factory” look like? Is this what GitHub is perhaps?

I think so, after watching a recent GitHub Satellite talk that had some of the scientists who developed the first picture of a black hole present. They said their team was ~200 people, but the contributor count of all the open source project transitive dependencies they used was on the order of 20,000+ people[1].

How will that idea evolve and how can we all participate in that evolution?

> Experiments show that transfer learning basically doesn’t exist, average people simply cannot apply principles they’ve learned in one context in a completely different context.

This is an exceptionally bold claim. Sounds dubious.

> Finally, many people have very successful careers in one field despite having a degree in a completely different field, which suggests that whatever people learn in their degrees doesn’t really matter all that much.

No it doesn’t. For that to be true you would need to demonstrate that, say, having an engineering degree does not influence likelihood or magnitude of success in engineering careers.

In reality there are likely going to be many recipes for success. Nepotism or social skills is one. Learned Competence is also one. Dumb luck is a third. The fact that you can succeed without such things does not mean such things are worthless

It's depressing (ha!) how accurate this cynical sounding stuff is. I have had to be really cautious as my usually avoidant and blaming family have threatened to try and have me locked up by exaggerating things when I have told them how severely depressed I am as a result of my situation. They don't care to help in any practical way and ignore me in general. They know I have no financial stability. They know taking such action would put me in five to six figure unrecoverable debt here. It's the same with "mental health providers". You cannot be open without fear of debt and losing more agency. It's why I occasionally rant online as I have no safe space irl. My mental issues are entirely side effects of my physical and financial issues...but those root problems are avoided.
I've got a simple blackjack program[1] in bash that I occasionally play; it's ugly code, but it's pretty straightforward.

It's really interesting because I hear these kinds of claims a lot from Clojure programmers. How did they arise in the community? I find it hard to believe that so many Clojure programmers have actually tried Haskell and come to exactly the same conclusion.

Does Rich Hickey repeat these points somewhere? If so could you point me to where? I'd love to see them. I'm a big fan of Are We There Yet, Simple Made Easy etc. and find Haskell a great implementation of them.

> I have to add it to the type union. But it should be obvious at this point that the moves I am making are not driven by the outcome I want but by the rules of the type checker.

That's not how I see it at all. I wish I could understand why you do see it that way!

> But I don't want an error. I can prove that the absence of the field is OK/not-an-error.

You misunderstand. If you know that a field of a data type is going to be unused you can fill it in with an `error` call that you know will never be hit. You can even omit the field entirely! That's considered bad form but if you like it then knock yourself out.

data Foo = Foo { bar :: Int
, baz :: String
, quux :: Bool
}

doSomething :: Foo -> IO ()
doSomething foo = do
print (bar foo)
print (baz foo)

example1 = Foo { bar = 42
, baz = "Hello"
, quux = error "quux will never be inspected"
}

-- > doSomething example1
-- 42
-- "Hello"

example2 = Foo { bar = 42
, baz = "Hello"
}

-- > doSomething example2
-- 42
-- "Hello"

I was going to post similar but hesitated because of just how toxic these discussions can become; the assumption of bad faith or a politically dubious agenda - especially as it has some commonality with themes expressed by some of the often unpleasant and mysoginistic "men's rights" subcultures.

Tinder and the like (yep, the year stood out for me too) creating a magnifier effect on a previously geographically constrained imbalance, funneling a significant percentage of short term hook ups through murky, disease-ridden "alpha male" bottlenecks.

More sexual activity, fewer people (particularly, fewer straight men) doing it.

This theory should be easily falsifiable if the data shows that there isn't a particular decrease in overall male numbers as a percentage compared to female.
The Courville, Goodfellow and Bengio book is definitely suitable for undergraduates. In my current job, we often have new junior level (bachelor’s grads) ML hires work through that book and present chapters in the team reading group. In my experience both as a TA in my PhD program and in industry, that book is fairly easy to read through for anyone with solid understanding of linear algebra and vector calculus, which are freshman / sophomore level college math courses.
VS Code is very similar, with the additional support for .EditorConfig files.

I do have a new line at the end of files now so that Git doesn't complain. That and new lines before some curly braces (either JS/TS/C#, can't recall which) is the only thing I've changed over the last decade+. The fact that I don't recall which I do where suggests I might want to reevaluate that, if it's not in a language that's going to compile it out.
Do any functional languages support partial evaluation using named parameters? That would solve the parameter ordering complaint.

As for higher order functions you would write a function that does the 90% and accepts a function parameter for the other 10%.
I believe you are conflating "being in the market" with "not being successful in the market".

You said they're not in the market ("totally removed"). If they're not in the market, attempting to make a sale, the odds of ever making sale are zero.

If you're in the market, and nobody is buying, you need to improve your product or target other potential customers. If this was about software or other such, everyone would be all over it with great ideas and helpful comments and suggestions for improvement and so on, but because this is about men having trouble finding a girlfriend, they blame the market and stop trying.
I find it more absurd to think that closing clinics has no effect on the health outcomes of the affected communities.
> Move forward to today: a large percentage of men are totally removed from the dating market, they do not have sex, they have no hope of getting into a relationship. The reverse is not true for women, who have countless options and can at any time open their phone and have their pick of men.

I'm very skeptical of this. Attractiveness is sort of a constant across population, and sorts into several bucketed gradients, its not as if there are suddenly a ton more attractive women or unattractive men than there was before 2012 - there does however seem to be fewer situations where people can meet via traditional means however.

Now if you want to argue that non-conventionally beautiful women are not connecting with their counterparts on the male side, that might be a more interesting discussion - but one I dont think that can be proved out with data.
The coho are federally listed and protected in my watershed, so we’re not competing with fishermen. That program was run in conjunction with local scientists trying to support and study the coho run in the area. The steelhead part of the hatchery is primarily aimed at supporting local populations FOR fisherman, so it’s less of a competition and more of a balance. As the article talks about, hatcheries are largely funded for and by recreational fishing. It would be nice if we saw wild animals as worthy of support for their own sakes, and the role they fill in our environment, but the money isn’t there.
Thanks, interesting that it had a name :)

Yeah I know I do, but when I notice I do try to use different langauge.

Normal does not mean good, it just means normal.
That's interesting and I read the same line of thought somewhere else. But doesn't it assume that majority of women choose their sexual partners just based on looks? If yes, then to what extent this is true?

Why Docker can't be used for sandboxing untrusted code
If you have a place where you emit sum types, and you increase the set of possible cases you can emit then you do have to cross-the-entire-codebase to update all consumers of that sum type to handle the new case.

If you have a place where you consume product types, and you increase the set of fields that you inspect on that sum type, then you do have to cross-the-entire-codebase to update all producers of that product type to emit the new field.

I don't see how it could be any different. How would you handle this in Clojure?
Or men have the same rate, but sampled at 50%: perhaps the symptoms for women are twice as bad?
