I hope you mean this in the literal sense, in that they are both people who have taken the scientific contributions of others for their own businesses, and somehow get the credit for work they never did.
Well here you probably can - that kind of substitute a product can't be that hard to detect.
I'm not doubting that, mostly just curious. There are entire groups of fish which I cannot keep because I'd need continuous hardness monitoring(, and water replacements would get expensive).
Of course they value it. There is no argument there. I feel the culture and average person just doesn't value it at the same level they once did.

My wife is a math teacher now for 15 years (Middle school & High School). The attitudes of kids in just that time span have changed significantly. There is more emphasis by students and parents for their child to pushed to the next grade level with less effort. Teachers are put in the hot seat for kids not doing their homework or getting extra help. Both are the students responsibility. Students come to school extremely tired, which they admit is due to various hours of entertainment media consumption and staying up late.

There has been study after study showing that students are spending more time on their screens, looking at various forms of entertainment media. How can we blame them? It's addicting.

You're probably right, the system has failed them. I'm not sure how it gets fixed, but I feel strongly that people can't depend on just getting educated by institutions alone. There are other avenues that we should be promoting.

FWIW, You can get also get 52dBm of EIRP on 2.4GHz with a dedicated antenna by 22dBm of power with 30 dBi antenna gain.

Also, the FCC specifically forbids running multiple pyshically-colocated unlicensed p2p links in parallel, and point-to-multipoint is also disallowed.

>I've sat in on calls with Amazon Employees where they tell you to do exactly this to boost sales.

Well that's next level depressing.

It's weird. All these amazon complaints - they ring true to me...yet I've thus far escaped the negatives thus far despite heavy amazon use (say package every 48hrs).
This is largely my position as well. I think kids are capable of drastically more than we expect from them, especially when they are motivated, and there's no reason that 18 year olds shouldn't be perfectly capable of making an impact right at the beginning of adulthood.
Is it fair to compare GUI frameworks with over 20 years of maturity (Qt, GTK+) with others that are less than a few years old and still mostly in their exploratory stages?
So I hear, but my experience with Amazon on this front has not been so positive. I pretty much count them as not having a return policy at all anymore. If I get broken garbage from them, I just eat the loss and get more suspicious of Amazon. It beats having the hassle of talking to Amazon in order to end up just eating the loss anyway.

This is in contrast to eBay, which has always done right by me when I've had a problem with something I've purchased.
That document declared "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights"... which part of that says only some men are created equal, or only citizens were endowed by their Creator, or that maybe some Rights are inalienable?

I see no room in the wording of the founding statement of the USA to read into it that it's OK for an administration to treat some people like shit as long as it's only certain groups. I only get the sentiment that if the administration treats anyone wrong (for a strictly definition of wrong), it's time for them to go.

As soon as it becomes OK to discriminate between those with inalienable rights and those without based on privileges like "citizenship" then it becomes easy to redefine or revoke such privileges at will. There is plenty of historic precedence for just that. The only legitimate reading of 'all' is all, not some or a few or all citizens.

I trialed 3 different brands of dailies this year. It was a pain, but one of them did end up standing out in terms of comfort for me. My doctor said there is no pattern - it’s really person dependent which is best.

Dailies changed my life. They only started making dailies in something close to my prescription a few years ago.
Don't you think that if tests are effective, they may let you go faster?

To put it another way, it is not surprising that error rates are similar since, presumably, you keep coding till you produce an error, fix it and then repeat.

The question is how much error free code you wrote between the errors. If testing -- or any technique for that matter, like relaxing, jogging, discussing, planning -- reduces errors, it will manifest as more functionality per error.
>> I guess this is what it feels like to be a young-earth creationist: I simply cannot wrap my head around...

You think you're picking on an easy target there, but if you talked to some, you might actually find a few that will talk about young-earth creationism in the context of something interesting like Einsteins theories of gravitational time dilation. Had an engineering professor like this.

Call it cognitive dissonance or not, but it seems pretty normal to be able to hold two concepts in one's head, even ones that seem to conflict... with the hopes of one day reconciling them.
Pretty good article. Can't wait to read other, less sensational articles recommended here.

One particular error in the article stood out to me: the Trinity test site is in White Sands, New Mexico, not Nevada. This was immediately noticeable because I've been to the Trinity site.

USA prices.

Amazon $119, 5% cash back on Amazon CC, Prime Now has minimums, includes Whole Foods, has music and video included. Video is $108 by itself.

Walmart Grocery $98. (their CC is a 1 year bonus, not forever)

Costco $60-120 (120 price gets you 2% yearly cash back.)

Target Shipt $99, 5% back on Redcard, free Debit Redcard is all thats needed for free standard shipping, shipt is for same day like Now.

At the moment upgrading from 2day/nextday to same day costs around $100/year.
> but they always send me another one without caring.

Had something like that happen to me, and for the product, it was a shock. I had ordered the item, it said it was delivered, but it never made it to me. I contact CS (via chat) and they said they would send out another one. I said ok - what happens if the old one shows up in the meantime. They told me to keep it.

A few days later I got the original item (it had been shipped to a completely wrong address via USPS). Then a few weeks later I got the "new" one. So now I have two of them.

The item? A Tamiya Grasshopper kit.
That doesn't answer the question. You also get bail by default in the US, "without condition." However, the definition of bail is literally collateral or security that you provide to ensure your return. So to say that you get bail in the UK is just to say that the UK does the same thing.

There's this implication that poor people can't make bail because they're poor, which is utterly false and made in bad faith by most who imply it.

If a person is not released on their on recognizance in the US (i.e. without bail), then bail is set by the court based on 1) extent to which the person is a flight risk / risk to public safety, and 2) the person's ability to pay. Let me say that again, the amount of a cash bail is based on the defendant's ability to pay.

If a person is only a mild flight risk, then the judge will choose an amount that is within the defendant's financial means, but also sufficient to encourage them to show up. If a defendant proves they they are poor, then this amount is be very small. However, if they prove they are poor and the judge still sets a bail that they cannot reach without borrowing from friends and family or a bondsmen, then that also says something. It means the judge determined they're too much of a risk to trust on their own. The point of cash bail is often to make the defendant accountable to friends, family, bail-bondsmen... which encourages them to show up.

A confounding factor is that wealthy people are rarely a serious flight risk. An illegal alien charged with DUI may have friends who he can hide with, skills he can use to work anywhere, and the knowhow to "stay off the radar." An accountant who charged with DUI, however, can be tracked by their phone and bank accounts, likely has far more to lose by fleeing (a paid-off house, a family that lives in town with them, a job that reports their employment to government, etc.). These are all factors that go into the amount cash bail. So, it might look like "he's getting out because he can pay despite being charged with the same crime" when the real reason is that "the judge picked an amount he can pay because he's not a serious flight risk."
What's the rush? You'll just get to the end game and have no one else to play with, and probably frustrated with the lack of suitable raid members.
Alternatively, if it gets more common, perhaps there would be space for more peer group socialization alongside the academic acceleration. If you teach vector calc to an entire group of 9 year olds, maybe they can develop as normal, as opposed to the potentially damaging solution of teaching it to a group of 18 year olds and one 9 year old.
You've provided a number of wonderful explanations on this thread.

As an American who's had zero personal involvement with the justice system, I'd never really stopped to consider the practice of cash bail. Thank you!
Gotta be smart, I think Amazon technically paid me to have prime one year and this year I've negatived a good chunk of it. Any time they have the 1$ digital credit for delay shipping I select it which then subsidizes a good chunk of my eBook purchases. I think I've had 4$ in credit just this week and have another 1$ I'll get whenever the 5$ shoehorn I ordered yesterday ships.
And that I totally agree with. The government doesn't seem to be able to do squat at the moment. Just complete gridlock.

That's the cost to jump the waitlist, not the ongoing price for what will be (he hopes) the majority of users. Back when Facebook was Ivy-league only, there were TONS of students I knew who would have paid to get access. As it gets less exclusive the price will come down or become free
I stopped using Amazon because they sell mostly junk as recently: the same pictures but different names, incorrect overemphasizing statements and fake tech specs, mostly made in China objects. Examples: binoculars, microscopes, telescopes, monoscopes, digital amplifiers, bluetooth headphones, etc.
Absolutely, and if your business is repeating the same mistakes in Chrome as we saw 10-20 years ago from IE....
This sort of thing is why we have courts.

I think whether or not LASIK is suitable depends on corneal thickness, corneal steepness, and the level of correction needed, just as a baseline, or so it was explained to me. I was investigating intraocular lenses not too long ago as an alternative because my ophthalmologist advised that I'd probably have difficulty seeing in low-light conditions if I underwent LASIK.

(Apparently my "parameters" are such that I'm in a gray area where some surgeons will perform LASIK, but others won't. My prescription is pretty high in one eye (around -8). I ended up not being a great candidate for any corrective eye surgery, intraocular lenses included.)

Anyway, intraocular lenses are definitely more invasive, but from what I recall they sounded like a better option to me than LASIK in general: apparently vision quality is better than LASIK with IOLs, there's no removal of corneal tissue, and chance for complications was lessened. (Well, as I understood it, there were fewer minor complications, but more possible major complications, which is maybe not a trade-off many people want to make.)

Of course, they cost about 2x as much as LASIK.

I'm pretty sure they are FDA approved, especially given their use in cataract surgery, although the ones in cataract surgery replace the natural lens whereas the corrective type typically do not...

No doubt. We can't continue on the path we're currently on. It's not sustainable.
I've ditched Chrome completely in favor of Firefox (desktop and mobile). I've been surprised about Firefox's speed, but not in a good way... After all the hype I've been seeing about Firefox getting faster I've been disappointed by how sluggish it feels on my system (Linux, 20 CPUs, 32GB RAM -- yes, this is my personal dev machine :D). Chrome is still faster, but I'm sticking to FF because I believe in their mission.
More likely: employees were attending too much for the reasons inconvenient to the executives. As an ex-Googler: this is the surest indication yet that Google is in deep trouble. TGIF would be canceled from time to time before when the execs suspected things would get confrontational and employees wouldn't like even remotely honest answers. But to cancel them basically permanently is going to blow up in Sundar's face. The ongoing communication channel, as difficult as it might be politically for both sides, is an integral (and very beneficial) part of Google culture. Or, _was_, at this point.
I always shake my head when Jimmy Wales is given so much credit for founding Wikipedia, while what he did was supply the money for it from the profit he made off his soft-core porn business, while Larry Sanger (who deserves most of the credit, including coming up with the name Wikipedia, with Wikipedia's most distinctive feature -- the so-called Neutral Point of View, and with managing the site itself) is virtually forgotten.

Sorry, but what makes you an outsider?

> The number of crackpot acolytes around Corbyn grows every day (thankfully, he remains unpopular with voters). I would vote for Labour normally...but their current policies are just...ignorant. These ideas have been tried, they didn't work, that is why Corbyn has support amongst young people who don't read books.

You've obviously taken all of this as an attack on your personal view of politics and its intersection with economics. However, instead of reflecting on why the economists that have associated themselves with Labour are criticizing your politic, you've taken to calling them crackpots. Robert Skidelsky certainly has the credentials to be taken seriously, regardless if you agree or not. Throwing out a few points that are _directly refuted_ by Skidelsky doesn't make for useful or productive criticism.

Together, this isn't the mark of an outsider. At best you're a 'useful idiot' in the Chomskyian sense, at worst you're the economist that supports violent austerity the article is criticizing.

Inkjet is fine, I paid for mine 70 or so and about 40 for a 5 year warranty extension. I think the biggest problem is dust though, so when not using it, consider removing the paper and closing all the lids. My Canon with built-in scanner now survived 2 years without any problems. And the drivers work well, at least on macOS. Also I can print labels with it.

Teflon (PTFE) and BPA are nowhere close to being phased out. Every single metal can in America is lined with BPA, and there is pretty much nothing that used to use PTFE that has stopped using it.
Since the article apparently lacks a link to the actual social network site: https://wt.social

The article says that it's not free and there's membership fee. I'm not against that, but it doesn't say that anywhere on the front page. Presumably they tell you that after you've submitted the form containing your personal information. Kind of shady.

Von Neumann is something of a hero of mine, in part because of how he demonstrates (by example) that you can achieve surpassing insight by patiently applying logic and analysis to whatever problem is at hand.
But also because he shows that you didn't have to be narrowly focused in your area of competence, you could pursue other interests and even excel in those, even if they aren't the things that you're known for.

He really liked history, particularly European history.
There's some examples of this in his letters[0], but my favorite von Neumann story on this topic is how he managed to deduce the answer to a literary magazine's poetry trivia question when queried by his brother.
They would both be teenagers at the time, and the magazine was in English, as opposed to their native martian, yet John got the solution at once.

Paraphrasing from here[1], although his brother's limited run biography/reminiscences has the story too.

The prize contest had the lines

They know this well my baron and my men
Gascony, England, Normandy, Poitou
That I had never follower so low
Whom I would leave in prison to my gain
I say this not as a reproach to them
But prisoner I am

John replied immediately: "Richard Coeur de Lion".

"Did you know the poem?"

"No."

"Then how did you identify the poet?"

"Very simple" he said. "Gascony, England, Normandy, and Poitou were
in one feudal hand only once during the early Plantagenets,
and from there it was quite easy to associate with Richard's crusades
and European captivity. But of course this is a translation, since
quite obviously the early Plantagenets spoke Norman-Midieval French."

His brother then goes on to state:
I found out much later that the translation was that of Henry Adams,
and the Prison Song is only one of Richard's most perfect poems,
usually referred to as gems of English literature!

0. One to his daughter springs to mind, where he expresses fatherly concern about her getting married during her undergrad-- he's worried that she's too young and this will derail her career. After that's addressed, he then moves on to talking about one of her term papers, and proceeds to suggest an insightful take on-- I believe, I haven't read the letters in a decade-- some medieval French bishop. The juxtaposition of concerned father plus European historian in a man more known for axioms and automata was jarring.
