This implies (well, directly states) that these asian women are only a step above prostitutes, while in fact either both are, or none of them, depending on the perspective. If the male cannot find a match, it is a failure by definition, but I do not see how this fails his masculinity.

Masculinity doesn’t have to be linked with local wealth (pressing/buying someone with money, connections and law doesn’t make one alpha-dog nor a unique problem solver), and I would add wealth actually tends to hide smaller balls, if you excuse a non-native speaker for this idiom. It is strange that traditions link those two, as a person may be just not interested genuinely in spending effort to accumulate so much bigger than usual money to simply get a normal healthy date and life. Masculinity is a thing that allows you to skip these steps altogether, unless women are heavily reprogrammed on money instead and everyone is okay with that.

Basically, it is a failure of a man to find a decent woman, but it is still unclear who is a failure in general.

Anecdata - my kid is the same. She’s 22 months and can sing all the usual songs and names her shapes and colors aloud with the videos. It’s impressive and she can count like crazy from all of it (and out of order so it’s not _just_ rote memorization in order).

We do push it at times when we are traveling or she’s sick where she will get 2-4 hours of iPad and videos along with her books. She will also pick a book over the iPad almost every time the choice is available so I am not worried (yet).

After doing it for a while, you get a rough feeling for the calories involved - you can tell just by looking at your dish if it's 500 or 1,000 calories.

That means you don't get high precision data, and the nutrients may be off, but it's more than enough to keep yourself in a caloric deficit/surplus as you choose.

Here we have a strong move towards what is possibly the next phase in the seemingly eternal tension between concentration/core convergence of resources versus distribution/meshing.

The last swing was strongly in favor of concentration, with a new word: "datacenters" became "clouds", though the distinction seems more marketing than ontology, if we stretch it more CS (abstract) than actual specs.

Now we're seeing a move back towards "on-prems", "self-hosted", "distributed"; towards the "edge" as we call it now, away from whatever passes for a "core" (the means is always somewhere in the middle, but as any pendulum, we probably cross it too fast to stop there given the momentum; such is the way of cyclic phenomenon driven and bound by natural objects such as human beings, or computers).

This ping-pong goes back to the first Turing machine and what came immediately thereafter; we saw big incarnations of each extreme which became popular names, iconic hallmarks of their era — the "mainframe", the "micro computer", the "super computer", the "handheld". Cue IoT (the extreme form of distribution, as far as we can conceive it), or holistic notions of "noosphere" (information "biome" so to speak, the whole of computers seen as a ecosystem, which you may describe as a "species" like we would gases, biological beings or... technological things. It might seem crazy then again internet displays some very biological properties).

The unambiguous conclusion that one should make, after observing this cycle first-hand for at least 1.5-ish period's (when you realize it's a cycle), is that we need both to make a world, and probably many variations thereof; and that we will "refresh" all of it, probably upon each half-cycle (these are, what, 30 years approx? so each 15 years give or take, like it too that from "the web" and cell phones to reach the smartphone era; or from then to now, the next few years, 2023-ish, as we cross into this next stage of the pendulum story?)

Lots of things are this way in technology, cycles from one extreme to the next, ultimately impossible to fix in a "happy medium" because there's no such thing; rather there are "happy trends" which fit their time, and as many such "trends" as there are "times" — how we moved from mainframes+terminals to the almost equally capable sever-client paradigm will be a vastly different story than the move from clouds to whatever's next.

Agreed, I'd like this to go one step further and allow you to guess on a square where you will inevitably have to guess anyway.

I'm not sure how hard this is to add to the SAT solver. The formal definition is something like "if for some set of maybe-squares S, no matter what the solutions are to all of the squares outside S, the set of solutions to S is the same, then allow clicking anywhere in S". But that's a combinatorial explosion: just the number of sets S to consider is a factor of 2^#{maybe-squares} . I don't know enough to say if that can be optimized into something sane so that it can be rigorously applied, but a handful of special cases for small unconnected sections of the board would cover most of it.

Yeah, there's nothing more relaxing for me than putting on a comedy podcast and working through a 2D metroidvania game on DS or my hacked Switch. For some reason the two parts of my brain that process audio and that style of game are completely independent.

It's no different than knitting or solving a crossword while listening to the radio 100 years ago.

The only problem is that I only have one more DS and GBA Castlevania game before I've beaten all of them. I've already worked through every Metroid and 2D Zelda game as well as Hollow Knight.

> What's poorly designed about each dependency recursively installing its own dependencies even if some of them are shared?

Something npm doesn’t do, so not a great example. Simple apps having dependencies with lots of files is also a package ecosystem thing, not a package manager thing.
An instrument rating is likely to cost as much as the original private pilot rating - and things are already stupid expensive. Over most congested areas, planes are suppose to maintain 1000' vertical separation. Over water (not boats/people/etc) and other non-congested area, that can drop to 500'. Just because a hobbyist drone is capable of flying higher does not mean it should. If someone wants to fly under part 107... they are already working within the system.

Yeah this is the bare minimum for what qualifies as exercise. I’m really surprised the author took the liberty to opine on all of exercise based on this...
You might recall then, that in those days the compressor just "guessed" at how big the uncompressed drive space should be. You could set it to anything that had sufficiently few digits.

This allowed you to put in absurdly large numbers. I had a 9.5Mb floppy drive when I first realized the number was arbitrary, but expected to be reasonably accurate given "typical use" (which was code for "not encrypted and not already compressed").

Of course when you used higher than realistic numbers, you'd just eventually hit the last compressed cluster and then your system puked while the software tried to figure out why it can't write the next sector.
what you’re really saying is that C is fast and python is slow. I don’t think that was ever in debate.
Indoor cycling might be a good fit too. I really love the metric driven rides; the competitive aspect is a nice replacement for running faster races.
> at no point in my year of exercising has it been much other than an annoying thing that I’ve had to do

I was jogging for well over a year before I started to enjoy it and look forward to my runs. Before then it took a fair amount of willpower to do it, afterwards I wanted to run and it was no effort.
I tried this for a while. I was hitting the gym for HIIT and weights and counting calories with MyFitnessPal. I estimated a pretty huge calorie deficit and it felt like it (felt woozy more than once). Lost zero pounds. After that I stopped being so careful with counting and just tried to eat right and keep exercising. Lost zero pounds. I wanted to get some hormone levels tested but my doctor said not too.

One person squarely at the center of this scandal is Boeing's Chief Test Pilot. Here's his bio:

> O’Donoghue’s military experience includes 12 years of active duty as a U.S. Marine Corps fighter pilot and test pilot. He flew operational missions in the A-4M, AV-8A and AV-8B Harrier aircraft, and engineering flight tests on the AV-8B and F-14 Tomcat. In 1994, O’Donoghue transferred to the U.S. Air Force Reserve where he flew the C-130, C-141 and C-17. While there he commanded both the 728th Airlift Squadron and the 446 Airlift Wing, stationed at McChord Air Force Base, Wash. In 2005, he retired from the Air Force Reserve at the rank of colonel.

> O’Donoghue holds a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering from the U.S. Naval Academy.

This doesn't seem to conform to your theory that it's "cheaper workers" and business majors that caused these problems: sure, they may have created even undue pressure. But it was an all-American fighter jock doing a lot of the actual lying about MCAS.
I can't see how these accidents point to cheap incompetent labour unless you are saying that the product managers, chief engineers, principal engineers are being outsourced.

Are you saying that a plane that tends to tilt up dangerously under certain conditions that is designed to be pushed down nose first by a software with no limit to how much it'll push down depending on a single sensor would have been an acceptable solution if the workers were different? This is a problem with the design and definition of a large system rather than the implementation.

So, I think in this case, whoever had any knowledge of this at any level and let it go through are absolutely responsible. While outsourcing to cheap labour elsewhere can and often does become a problem,these crashes can't be attributed to that. This was a very specific failure with very specific people in the wrong.

If both people are getting what they want out of a relationship, what is the problem exactly?

The idea that relationships are based on love is not universal to say the least, many parts of the world still have arranged marriages that are explicitly transactional with an agreed dowry or bride price.

If it makes you feel a bit better, we are currently living through an unprecedented high in relationships based upon love rather than money.

The gap that I see in current machine learning is that everyone is learning how to use the popular models, but no one knows how to construct a new model that solves a new problem. So everyone can download word vectors and use them for what they're good at, but the second you get off the beaten track, almost all machine learning practitioners fall flat. I really dont think this is due to how new the field is, rather that very few people have the mathematical maturity and experience to actually use optimization theory and linear algebra to construct new highly specific language models. There is simply no information available about doing this. You can learn about the underpinnings of matrix factorization and how that relates to word vectors, take that further and read about eigen vectors, but still, its too thin.
Health care in Vietnam is not not too bad, at least for the price. Surely you can't expect state of the art cancer treatments here but everything else is pretty affordable. My father just had an operation to fix his retinal detachment, everything costed less than 800 USD, and only 200 USD after insurance. Another guy I know had an operation for appendicitis, and he only needed to pay 200 USD for it. And both of them used special services, it would be even cheaper if they use normal ones.

If anyone want to move to Vietnam, pick Saigon/Danang/Hue/Nhatrang and stay away from the north until they fix their air pollution problem. It's pretty bad up there.

I thought this was about adopting a programming style where each variable is assigned to only once. But it was something else entirely.

I was interested because I've started adopting the single assignment style in my own code, and like the results (the code is easier to comprehend).

From what I've seen, perforce is better for storing binary intermediates.

Git doesn't work very well with partial or subfolder checkouts which is something you would need if you want to store intermediates. In games intermediates can take multiple hours to build (like maps). Building the game from scratch every commit like it's usually done with git CI tooling does not work very well.

We also ran into wanting to give modders access to maps and materials but not to game code.

Wyze Alleged data breach 12-26-2019
I used this recently as part of a literature review I was doing. Worked amazingly well and sped my work up substantially. Highly recommended.
Perforce has a locking mechanism for files, which is important for the large binary objects that are used in game development. Git doesn't really have that concept, so it requires more out of band communication to make it work for that use case.

Git LFS might handle this, but it's just not something that Perforce shops have to even think about, train their people on, etc. It's just "there" and there's somebody that they can call and yell at if things go wrong.

Some of the greatest music compositions ever written (Bach's Mass in B Minor, and Bach's Chaconne) were not written for the approval of an echo chamber. They were written to satisfy his personal notions of beauty, and in the case of the Chaconne, to record his feelings about his life with his wife. In fact, incredibly, they were never performed while Bach was alive.

When Bach wrote for approval, for acknowledgement of form, you got things like the Brandenburg concertos. Fancy, showing off... Bach made sure that the listener would not have to work at all to see his adherence to form. They are lesser pieces of music because of this.

Mr. Podhoretz is not the J.S. Bach of the written word. But even so, what art he possesses necessarily suffers for being expressed in the panderdrome that is Twitter. Do it for long enough and it diminishes you.
I live part time in Tây Hồ (fly back to the States for each semester of school) and I just want to say that I've never gotten sick from the food.

I'm not denying that you've gotten sick, but I'm just saying that it's different for everybody.

Ice cubes come from vendors and I'd be surprised if they're contaminated (that's like the entire point of buying ice instead of making it from the water supply).

Under CCPA, businesses do not "demand" data because there is no restriction on its collection. Businesses simply need to provide notice of what they collect.

Consumers cannot opt out of this collection.

Consumers do have the option to opt out of having their personal information resold to third parties. The CCPA then specifically restricts businesses from withholding services or providing you with reduced services as penalty for this opt-out.

CCPA may not be perfect or even well-explained, but it's a first step in a positive direction within the United States. I think it's unfair to call it "useless".
