Parts of East Baton Rouge Parish are liberal enough to be considered New France, but Livingston Parish doesn't deserve the title -- it's more like 50/50. The line may be determined by Catholic vs Protestant; New France consists of Catholic majority Parishes.

I'm a part of the French revival movement in South Louisiana to help preserve the culture. Most French speakers are 60+ years old, which is sad. Before about 1970, children suffered corporal punishment if they spoke French in school. Blame it on the Anglo-protestants.

There isn't much French spoken in Nouvelle Orleans anymore. Same goes for Baton Rouge. This largely happened after Reconstruction: some of the Yankee leadership who took over were just as xenophobic as Southern slave-owners. I'm not trying to defend this change in leadership having to occur, it was necessary to make sure the South didn't try to keep slavery alive. Unfortunately, nationalist leadership was much like today's conservatives in wanting the only official language of L'etats Unis to be Anglais.

South Louisiana is highly underrated though, especially the city of Baton Rouge. Weed is decriminalized, there's an incredible symphony orchestra, plenty of art museums, and damn good food. But it's much more "American" of a town than New Orleans or Acadiana.

Here's a hilarious article explaining the division between North and South Louisiana:

Medical ethics focus on the patient, not society.

An edit that was to the advantage of the baby, with zero disadvantages, but so much so that such edits could give an unfair advantage in society would be ethical.

In fact you could argue that not doing it if the means were available would be unethical.

Part of my divemaster training included free diving training.

While I hatted it, I experienced the same thing as you did: I could hold breath for a minute out of water and 2:08 underwater. There's the preparation, getting calm and relaxed, but there's also the diving reflex playing some part there and preparing your body for longer immersion.

> Can you describe what kinds of accuracy are possible in various situations?

Accuracy depends highly on the environment. If you're talking about houses/apartments its generally room level or subroom level (~10 sq ft). It depends on the number of WiFi routers in the vicinity, but this number if always growing so accuracy can get pretty good in some areas. Of course it's accuracy goes way down if you are in a remote area with no bluetooth or wifi points in the vicinity.

> What data sources are currently supported other than WiFi and Bluetooth (magnetic fields are mentioned)?

The FIND system accepts any data source that can be quantified. In the API you just label your data and the system will try classifying with it. For my purposes I developed an app and a CLI tool that can geolocate phones/computers and these use bluetooth and wifi.

> Is mapping of the WiFi/BT/Magnetic field required?

You don't need to map the fields, but you do need to go through a learning phase to help the system learn what kind of fingerprint each area has.

> And how often is remapping typically required?

It depends on your location. If you are in a rural area with only one WiFi router and it gets moved, then you need to remap. Surprisingly I've used this in airports (which have tons of ad-hoc wifi networks) and the accuracy stays resilient to the adhoc networks coming and going.

> If I move my WiFi emitting laptop to a new location does that require remapping the entire WiFi space?

It depends again, if your laptop is the only source of WiFi then yes you will need to remap. However, if your laptop is one of 10 or 20 sources, then it probably won't matter for the accuracy. In the system there are controls for this (visualization of patterns, test validations, etc.) so that you can monitor how this affects your system.

I turned down an internship in Palo Alto because the least expensive temporary (< 12 mo) housing I could find in the Bay area was a bunk in a "hacker shack" for ~$1k/month. The mortgage on my 4/2 house in Mississippi was <$500/mo. The person who offered me the job laughed when I told her about the wild discrepancy in costs of living and said several potential interns and employees over the years backed out for the same reasons.

Irreversible brain damage or death occurs when the brain is not getting enough oxygen.

If the brain continues its metabolism without oxygen it induces neuronal cell death.

The mechanism is called anoxic depolarization. Sodium–potassium pumps in the cell walls need to work to maintain K+ and Na+ ion gradient. When the pump runs out of energy it causes glutamate and aspartate concentrations inside the cell grow. When they grow past some critical threshold, it starts programmed cell death.

Cooling he body and brain can prevent this when the brain metabolism slows down to match the lower oxygen levels.
That the west logged off all of their forests long ago - also implying that it was a precondition to their status.

Except that instead of forests instead of being cumulatively wiped away has grown as marginal agricultural land has been left utterly unused. That becomes blatantly wrong like saying Europe's population is lower now than it was in the past because of two world wars and the Spanish Flu. While the terrible things did happen the end status did not.

In all of the forestry cases they realized the major problems that would ensue if they ran out and shifted to sustainable models with replanting instead of virgin land. In Germany's case they started shockingly early in the 1500s after encountering wood shortages.
I think this is why the Socratic method is so effective. When Socrates would debate with someone, he would almost never just state claims as if he knew the answers. Rather, he would always act as if his audience was the expert and he himself knew nothing. Acting in that way, he would probe the audience. Invariably, the audience would begin answering questions as if they knew all the answers; and invariably, Socrates would lead them around until they tripped over their own feet and realized they didn't know what they were talking about.

Good advice for parenting, too.
> Firefox sync is working very well

Been using it for years and years, I never could adopt Chrome. First when it came out I tried it, but no adblocker, then when there was one, it was too crippled, my guess is that this was intentional since they're going back to crippling adblockers. Now we have network level adblockers which I think is the best approach.

I only use Chrome cause some kiosk-like application I'm developing will ship through Chrome (not Electron) / WebKit. Also my boss prefers to see it, so I demo with Chrome mainly, but I do all my real browsing on Firefox. I'm a geek / developer so I have Firefox and Chrome on every system I have. Except on Android, unless it's preinstalled for me, I wont get it.
Debounce helps of course. I'm just responding to what I saw at my customer which was dozens of queries happening for simple user actions. Also the requests bloat quite a bit with all the query composition magic client side. This is probably not very mobile friendly. Also raw es responses are a bit heavy.

Templating is a good solution. I'd recommend making that the only way. Also, I don't see a good reason for using msearch since you can simply do the search once with multiple aggregations (and only for the first page of results).

A challenge with this client is that it is intended for people who are likely to not have a full grasp of the Elastic stack and thus very likely to get themselves in all sorts of trouble. That's exactly what I saw when I came in with my customer. They'd done the minimum of work to get started. Thankfully they had the good sense to setup a proxy but there must be loads of people who just open up port 9200.

I'd recommend actually testing the connection for access to things that definitely should be off limits (e.g. create and delete an index, if that works stert screaming at ERROR level).

For scaling and for architectural sanity, I don't think UIs should query directly. SQL support in react is also not a thing for the same reason. You typically do that kind of thing server side.

We have had some success in understanding all sorts of phenomena that are too complex to explain in all their detail: we have a useful understanding of the meteorology of snowstorms, for example, even though we cannot give an accounting for the exact shape of every single snowflake. You have given us no reason to be sure that an understanding of this form cannot be achieved for consciousness.

To anticipate one possible reply: self-referentiality (our mind studying itself) is not self-evidently a barrier, as one mind can study another.
>For the next four hours, I stand in one spot on a concrete floor working the tray line. It’s like a constant assembly line, putting food on trays for thousands of patients.

Standing in one place so long makes my feet and my legs hurt. I know when I get up tomorrow, I will wince when my feet touch the floor.

People should not have to do things like this. It is clearly a robot's job. And if it weren't for the parasitic managerial class constantly collecting all of the unclaimed resources for themselves, we would praise automation for freeing people from such mundane painful existence.

Automation should free up humans time so that they can do things that humans enjoy. The only reason that won't happen is that the people in charge of the system are evil and greedy.
Scandinavian prisons look like a pretty good time.
And, as the article writes, the forests in regions with a long history of undisturbed forests (Java, Brazil) contain species that will not leave the twilight of the forest canopy, so I doubt a wildlife crossing would benefit them. Apparently even birds that could easily fly from one "segment" to the next will not do it because they shy away from the open areas.

Sounds like we need more liability for the sales platform.

Or perhaps, a greater distinction in the law between an actual sales platform (i.e. Craigslist) and a sales platform masquerading as a corporate storefront (Amazon). The latter is designed to trick consumers into believing they have the same level of quality assurance as if they bought from Target or Walmart or any other retail operation that purchases and vets products individually before reselling them.
That seems like an excellent mapper (and the isochrones are fun), but it doesn't look like it takes into account traffic conditions. I regularly you google maps just to see which of my commute options is faster that day, and if I have to drive in London any route finding system that doesn't take into account current traffic is next to useless.
Firefox doesn't have hardware video decoding support for Linux, so watching videos on Firefox is terrible compared to Chromium.
This article is all flash with little substance. They used a "specialized machine" and never once named it. As others have mentioned this sounds exactly like ecmo. Its obvious to me that they are really simplifying the situation for their readers.
So now people who are trying to make a living with a small business don’t deserve to be in business but tech bro’s who can convince people to invest billions in companies that will probably never be profitable should stay in business?

Especially since we know that most venture funding goes to people who “pattern match” with Zuckerburg not the people who are running small businesses.

Yeah that’s going to make the poor better off while people in tech shake their finger at them - or in other words let them eat cake!

If low margin companies don’t deserve to be in business then why do money losing companies deserve to be in business? What if we made it against the law for public pensions to invest in VC funds or made it illegal for companies that don’t show that they can be profitable to be listed on the public market?
Disagree.

I've worked with smartasses, and I've worked with many people smarter than me. While there can be overlap, there generally isn't, in my experience.

Smartassery is something I've most often witnessed in people having a need for self-assertion. Most really smart colleagues I've had are confident enough in their skills that they don't need to prove them by being smartasses.

Anecdotes, but quite a few of them.

the question here is of course, how should one classify a manufacturing defect that affects a tiny percentage of the product?

Is that a merchantability issue? Is it realistic for a merchant to test every single product so extensively to uncover a defect of such a rare occurance?

One of the greatest ingredients of justice in the USA is that laws can be interpreted by a jury. I would most certainly vote against applying this "merchantability" blindly - without more context and more proof of negligence beyond simply stocking a product. If one in a hundred thousand catches on fire and the product is pulled makes for a very different story than if every other ignites yet they keep selling it.

I believe the objection is that deriving the formula itself from completing the square is the challenge, not the direct use of completing the square as you show in your example. (Although I wonder where you learned that, because I was certainly never taught that so directly.) The problem with deriving the quadratic equation that way is that for most people, that is a lot of symbols to keep track of, and you have to not only do an unintuitive "completing the square" step but you have to unintuitively do it fully generically.

For a professional mathematician this is barely a warmup, of course, but for the average person in middle school or early high school, this is distinctly nontrivial work.

(I'm not taking a side here, just trying to describe what the issue is, since you asked. I'm ambivalent. Neither of my kids are quite this far yet, so I'm not quite here yet.)
