I don't really see the issue in this case because borders are legal fictions and thus for contested borders between major factions there is no single source of truth, so the most accurate thing is indeed simply to display to Russian users the state of the map as understood by Russians and to other parties the way they see it.

Stopping sales of BrickArms is a no-brainer. IIRC firearms are notoriously difficult to reproduce as models, both physically and digitally, due to the aggressive IP lawyering of manufacturers.

Also I don't think LEGO wants to be in the business of selling models of actual named firearms. I think there is a massive divide between selling models of real life firearms versus models of firearms from films/entertainment IP. Context matters a lot.

I'm pretty sure LIDAR speed detectors are a lot more common than radar these days.
I understand that. I was specifically replying to the assertion that "Google screwed over Sun Microsystems". No, they did not. They decided on a path that they believed was legally defensible and would allow them to do their own thing with Java at lower cost. It might turn out that they're wrong, but no one tried to screw over anyone. It was purely an economic decision.

And if it turns out that Google loses this case, then all sorts of things that we take for granted for interoperability (like WINE, and, before the MS acquisition, Mono) are actually copyright infringement and shouldn't exist. I don't think we can claim with a straight face that WINE or Mono were created with malice intended toward MS, so we should give Google the same courtesy.
Because they're absent from most of Europe, because of their huge cylinder-volume the tax-related costs are pretty big in many European countries (there's only 2 F150s that I know of in the 2-million European capital I live in). This being an EV car will probably have close to no taxes attached to it so chances are some EV-enthusiasts will buy this instead of a Model 3 or Model S.
I would take exception to the idea that evolution can't/didn't discover wheels.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATP_synthase

Everything from E. Coli, to yeast, to plants, to humans, is based on rotating molecular motors.

Now, it is true that we don't see macroscopic wheels on living organisms. But a person or animal is composed of trillions of cells. By analogy, we don't see the millions of vehicles in a nation composing an entity that has wheels made up of vehicles.
"Every moment a new JavaScript framework borns here and there, so here is mine." That is what should be written on the page, to be honest. And not even the claim, that it lets you do everything without writing any JavaScript is not true because you simply move your JavaScript into the DOM node attributes. I think this is pretty much a step backwards towards in-page PHP or some XML logic parsing.

Thanks for trying though. The fatigue is real.

You're criticizing this article for failing to meet standards it never purports to uphold. This is an essay / personal account of events, not journalism.

For an essay, in my opinion, it stays in rather neutral territory, making some uncontroversial observations that climate change is bad, that big oil plays a major role it, and expressing some enthusiasm for standing up against partnerships with big oil, but not otherwise making strong claims about what should be done.

I still think a bad teacher is absolutely terrible and that teaching is not easy. I don't look at teacher salaries and think they are too high at all. I think we are bad at measuring what makes a good teacher. I just know it is not based on standardized test scores.

When I was a teacher, I had zero power to remove a disruptive or inattentive student from my class. I had 9th graders who could not deal with negative numbers being expected to do well on state Algebra tests that are of arguable quality. Even if they made substantial progress, they would not be to grade level.

I can still remember one student who after nearly a year of not being bothered to pay any shred of attention in class, during the final review, paid enough attention during the last steps of solving an equation:
Me: Alright, and combining like terms, what is 10x - 18x?
Student, suddenly paying attention: But wait, you can't subtract a bigger number from a smaller number!

I can't stop the class on nearly the last week of 9th grade algebra to help this student understand negative numbers. And they are not interested in coming in to get help outside of normal class. Parents were not interested in making sure this kid got through school.

Not so fun fact: at this school, less than 4% would go onto any post-secondary education. Of them, about 2% would go on to finish a degree. Something like a 90% transitory rate (meaning that most students who started 9th grade at this school would transfer to a different school before graduation, if they made it that far). I could go on, but there was an underlying cultural issue that did not value education. That trend is hard to buck: I had third generation gang members, kids raising their siblings because parents (often a single parent) were working multiple jobs, kids dealing with daily violence, one kid was stabbed to death right off of campus. The majority of these kids and their families have no experience seeing what an education can do for their prospects. Add onto that a tough employment market (inner city San Bernardio!), and those who did have siblings who did get a degree, they often couldn't find a job.

All this to say, I don't think lowering salary of teachers would help. Maybe lowering the cost of administrators would help. At this same time, there were more administrative personnel in the district than teachers, something I could never understand.

Ruling out teacher impact on height without testing is perhaps not strictly scientific?

We really don't know what is true unless we test it. I know it sounds ridiculous but it's not beyond the realms of possibility that teacher opinion of student capabilities influences social status which in turn influences release of growth hormones which influence height. Aren't there other species which grow when they rise to the top of the pack as growth hormones are released to assist in maintaining that status? Not saying it's likely but if left untested we cannot rule that out. There have been plenty of surprises in science when we went and actually tested what we previously presumed to be implausible.

Without reading the paper I bet it comes down to the central limit theorem, which itself comes down to the fact that 3rd order and higher terms don't matter asymptotically. The question is always when do you start appreciably approaching the asymptote (answer: we often have no idea).

Disclaimer: k3s creator

Kind is intended to be a development tool to run fully upstream clusters using kubeadm in Docker containers.

k3s is a custom distro that is oriented towards lightweight environments. The scope of k3s and kind are different (distro vs tool to run k8s in docker). There is another project called k3d (https://github.com/rancher/k3d) that more directly compares to kind. k3d will run k3s clusters in Docker. k3d creates clusters significantly faster and uses less mem/cpu resources than kind.
It's not that simple. If you go to Crimea and commit a crime without getting arrested, and then travel to Ukraine and they find out, they will arrest you and try you under Ukrainian law.

And if you try to cross the border from Crimea to Ukraine, the Ukrainian side will not ask you if you "want to enter Ukraine". They consider Crimea to be Ukrainian, so they'll treat you as somebody who is already on Ukrainian territory, just passing through an internal checkpoint. Which means that you must have had entered Ukraine legally before, and then traveled from there to Crimea, and back. If you try to enter Crimea from Russia, and then from there to Ukraine, then as far as Ukraine is concerned, you have committed an illegal entry at the moment you entered Crimea without going through a legitimate border checkpoint - so they'll just arrest you for that.

Furthermore, if you try to enter Ukraine at any other border crossing, but they have evidence that you have previously entered Crimea from Russia, they will also treat that as a past illegal entry.
Functional and integration testing, mostly.

I guess I'm assuming we're talking about unit testing specifically here, so I'm considering functional and integration testing as separate items.

Manual testing is terrible. I'll occasionally engage in that, but only as an extremely-short-term measure when I'm (again) not convinced my interfaces are stable enough yet to write unit tests.

May I ask why hate @jack ?
It appears to be an important research study, but in the sense of implication to educational policy, not so much.

The reason is, for one, the use of value-added measurement does not have a significant role as many would think. There is not a signle state in the U.S. use VAM as a single measure of teacher performance, nor a determinant factor in teacher firing or promotion. It is always mixed with other quantitative and / or qualitative measures (which usually are no better than VAM).

The second reason is, the research community has not find a better replacement yet. We always know we cannot directly use student achievement, now we know we cannot trust a more complicated measure such as VAM which takes into account of student history and other factors.
Won't use LIDAR for FSD because it's too expensive, but will implement laser beams to clean a windshield. Makes total sense.
I've seen tests that essentially look like that, and tests that, when you really look at it, pretty much just test the testing framework and mocking library and don't really exercise application code. It's infuriatingly useless.
If we request each of those pages, e.g., foxnews.com, cnn.com, bbc.co.uk, etc. with a simple HTTP client (no JavaScript engine) and we look at the subdomains that appear in each page, we see that in each case the tracker links are absent.

The requests to the trackers rely on JavaScript being enabled. What happens when JavaScript is disabled?

Further, we can easily list the subdomains that do appear in the page and, assuming they are being used to host content that we want, we can "whitelist" them in our zone file.

By the way, forcibly moderating the speed by grasping the governor was referred to in Victorian times (not making this up) as "cupping the governor's balls" which was one of those "plausible deniability" phrases (it was literally true so if someone objected they were the ones with the dirty mind).

I agree. But people draw that circle far more narrowly than they have to. Clearly you have control over your direct life, but even looking at larger, broader issues... You can vote. You can talk to people about problems and solutions. You can talk to your local and congressional leaders about wide-ranging problems. You can be an activist. You can write about the concerns and have your articles read worldwide thanks to the internet.

There is so much you can do about so many things... hence the phrase, "If you aren't part of the solution, you are part of the problem."

Draw that "circle of control" widely in your life, and you'll be amazed how much change you can invoke in your world.
The author is very intelligent and is doing three things differently from a 'standard' paper:

1) Reducing the density of information per paragraph (vs. packing information in)

2) Clearly outlined motivation and context (vs. just referencing some other papers and assuming they've been read)

3) Deploying comedy (vs. professionalism)

The first two improve the paper, the third is a step backwards because the reader has to spend effort separating fact & fiction. The combination in this case works and is a lot of fun but it would have been a catastrophic and cringeworthy exercise if the execution of (1) and (2) hadn't worked out so well.

The real trick here is excellent writing and the comedy is simply draws attention to it. Much like how an army marching in a silly way draws attention to its discipline. The silly march itself is not a good idea.

There's a significant positive correlation between height and IQ: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Height_and_intelligence

There's also a correlation between IQ and academic achievement.

So, if we did decide for some (undoubtedly bad) reason to reward teachers for happening to have more than average tall students it would be comparable to rewarding them for having more than average high achieving students.

k3s also shines in dev/test/CI. It's smaller and spins up faster and has specific features to preload applications on startup. It's a single ~50mb binary also so it's fast to download and run in CI. Many users have moved from kind to k3s in CI because of its speed, flexibility, and simplicity.

Or more specifically: the Polisario Front claims the whole of Western Sahara as an independent country, Morocco claims the whole of Western Sahara as an integral part of Morocco; Polisario Front has stable de facto control over a large but barely-inhabited inland portion of Western Sahara with the majority including all the coast being Moroccan-controlled, and Western mapping tends to gloss over it by treating Western Sahara as a single sometimes-unnamed entity with a soft border with the widely-recognised territory of Morocco.
"Rus" (Hellenized as "Rossia", and Latinized as "Ruthenia") was the term used to describe the entire territory from Kiev to Novgorod. Just because it had its capital in Kiev, doesn't mean that modern Ukraine is the only country that can lay claim to the word. Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus are all equally successors to that cultural and historical heritage.

Veblen goods [0] arguably create a real problem for the concept of markets being efficient. Essentially, the market signals feed on themselves, converting to hard-to-fake status signals, expending great energy at producing nothing: not as a byproduct, but as a primary effect. (Curiously, luxury goods share some DNA with Proof-of-Work cryptocurrency mining.)

Don't get me wrong, markets beat communism and mercantilism by a country mile; but as economists like to remind us, economic models are fundamentally agnostic to what people want, and people are often incentivized to treat inefficiency as a feature rather than a bug.

Trump tweeted that Esper fired Spencer but Esper very likely didn't actually have the authority to do so. Probably Esper asked Spencer to resign.

Point is, when you have 1) a tweet about an issue, 2) an official who says "that's not an order, we are going to wait until there's an order" followed by 3) that official being fired, it sure looks like the tweet was meant to be taken as an order.

I kept it to a single "tree" so I could implement a simple mechanic to delete blocks - dragging and dropping them anywhere in the canvas.

It could definitely be implemented though :)
