Ah yes, this would be kind of confusing in that case :)

Simply put, it's to move the blue-greenish block off the right side of the grid. You clear the path by moving all the other pieces around as necessary. Each piece can only slide horizontally or vertically, depending on its orientation (they move along their longer dimension).
I'm skeptical. I've seen other studies where whole milk has a whole host of health benefits.
More money, or the opportunity to work with “better” engineers. (Scare quotes because the betterness was by my perception from the outside. Sometimes they really were better, sometimes they were better at some things and worse at others)

At this point, only money- all the other stuff is subject to change, rapidly, without warning. But the money is written in a contract.

To echo this point: in my experience, a lot of businesses seem to believe that their internal processes are unique for a reason and offer some competitive advantage instead of being that way because somebody made a decision years ago and that decision stuck.

The more you customize your ERP, the worse off you are. The fastest, cheapest code is the code that's not written in the first place. The maintenance cost and difficulty upgrading down the road are many multiples of the sunk cost.
no thank you, I don't want my restaurant to require this just to eat so they can track me better.
Because you disagree with their politics, you want to silence them. Typical PC (Politically Correct or Progressive Communist, your choice) imposition of "cancel culture".

IRCCloud's Extended Outage Response
Misinformation Overwhelmed Our Democracy
Mounting new detectors, fixing broken things, swapping out (optical) filters and shear mirror size are all a big problem for satellites. No atmosphere is nice for IR, but current optical telescopes are 10 meters and up, much larger than even a Falcon 9 heavy can fit.
Yeah it'll be harder, but I don't see anything in principle which makes it impossible. If you can simulate the growth and plasticity of the brain to enough precision, then you could probably simulate 20 years of development in a very short time.

Maybe I'm making a massively overly pedantic point. It's just that your post began with a claim that certain things "cannot be given" to an artificial mind, which sounded like you were proposing absolute limits to AI.

Our elementary school uses chromebooks from 1st grade on, and I do see a lot of downsides.

The most outrageous problem, IMO, is that there are 'modules' that must be completed, and kids with computer access at home can work on them at home. Kids from low income families are screwed over - again.

Other problems

- spellcheck is always on, why learn real spelling when the computer fixes it for you?

- The de-emphasis on handwriting is mentioned in the article. In-class assignments are still handwritten, but take-home projects can be typed.

- A lot of 'educational' games are regular games with a minimal pretense of education value. Frogger is still Frogger, even if there's some notion of jumping to the lily pad with the right sum.

- Same for 'educational' youtube videos. youtube is blocked on my kid's devices, despite insistence that there are channels where they do scientific experiments. The videos are more about funny jokes than the different phases of matter.

( youtube is a funny one. Non-tech parents always tell me how great kid's youtube is. Tech parents are always like "f yea, of course you block youtube" )

Plus the last thing my kid needs is more screentime. I don't want to have to sit next to them all night making sure that they are only doing 'productive' work.
Its speedo error. Most cars and motorbikes slightly overestimate speed, and the effect is more pronounced at higher speeds. This is just to be on the safe side with regards to speed, as tire tread, tire size, temperature, etc. can all have positive or negative effects on speed. Its usually around 5%. You can test this by driving at a constant speed near those radar speed detectors and observing the speed on the board vs. your speedometer. My speedometer is usually about 4 mph faster at 50 mph.
There are 38 citations in TFA
What if the video was just sped up?

I guess you could use the speeds of the other vehicles as a reference point assuming they are going around the speed limit. It would be harder to show that the video wasn't sped up if there were no other vehicles on the road.

Is there a specific reason we're still doing ground based astronomy? With satellites becoming ever cheaper, sure we at some point should be able to get a significant telescope up there right? Are we waiting for the bigger rockets to accomplish that?

That’s the problem. The sponsors think they are giving a donation to the charity, whereas the charity actually only gets what’s left over after the expensive fun has been had.

Okay, but let's stop and think about it for ten seconds: Of course drinking a slightly different brand of milk doesn't make you live 4.5 years longer; the headline claim is obvious nonsense. (And as I understand it, it's now thought that to the extent there is any difference, it's in favor of the high-fat milk.)

So then the conclusion seems to be that confounding factors have an extremely strong effect on the conclusion, even when the investigators have tried hard to screen them out.

Why? What went wrong with the attempts to screen out the confounding factors?

The question was how to implement the freemium/shareware model in apps. It's important to understand that this model can make a lot of sense, for example in the case of weird and experimental games, where it avoids people wasting their money on something they won't like and leaving disgruntled reviews. It also encourages people to try something new. One approach is to have a single IAP and make the pricing obvious.
Isn't milk such a small part of most people's diets that it couldn't possibly have much of an effect? Especially for adults. Most people I know just put a bit in coffee and that's about it. I can't remember the last time I drank a glass of milk.

(Note I mean milk the drink, dairy is probably a big part of diets but that's not being studied here)

It's very expensive to build (especially large) space telescopes (JWST is already costing more than 8 billion at this point), and astronomy is not very well funded.
Totally agree with you. I wish folks used better technical solutions that made a breach like this impossible. It’s the ethical thing to do - this breach will directly cause people to come to physical harm.

Some quick thoughts, I've done a bunch of these.

1. The ERP software is exactly the same for everyone, but some companies thrive on it, some companies go broke on it. You and your partners are the difference.

2. Ideally your business will use commodity software for things that aren't a competitive advantage (e.g. general ledger), and custom software where you need an edge. Choose carefully.

3. If you choose COTS (commercial off the shelf software) understand how the vendor makes money from you and what you are willing to pay for. They want a constant stream of maintenance money from you, plus some discounted licenses. They will want you to upgrade regularly. Look ahead and think about how often you want to upgrade.

4. Powerpoints always work great. Actual software, not so much. Don't trust presentations.

5. A lot of ERP consultants live inside the bubble. Try to find some that understand mainstream tech and aren't zealots.
Yes, I am for building more telescopes, and especially space based ones which should become much cheaper to launch when SpaceX's Starship is ready.
I'm the presenter, this was inspired by an HN thread seen here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21938463
Pair programming is by no means "crucial".

It is an approach that probably works quite well in some contexts and some teams. In other team, different approaches work.

In the end what matters is that the team is highly motivated, has a strong sense of ownership and takes appropriate measures to reduce defects. How it achieves that doesn't really matter from a business POV and is more a subjective preference. In my team, we mostly achieve this through extremely thorough code reviews that dig into a lot of details and that works well for us.

edit: another thing that we do is careful discussion and planning of features (where we will sit together in a small group and discuss approaches) and, for more complex things, architecture decision records (similar to RFCs) that get reviewed before they are implemented.
For an example, Francis Rawls is (AFAIK) still in jail, will be there indefinitely, and has not been charged with a crime. So long as he refuses to divulge his password, he is held in contempt of court.

Generally, any random doctor at a hospital provides valuable services.

Autocomplete, IMO is a crude effort to make text based interfaces more interactive.

While it does address some shortcomings of text based interfaces, text based interfaces are inherently flawed to provide enough feedback or context to the user. The only reason we are still using text based interfaces is that the computing system has revolved around UNIX and the command line.

The fact that autocomplete is needed for sanely using text based interfaces (especially the command line and programming languages) are proving that we need a better interface.

GUIs became popular due to providing the users instant feedback of what the user can and cannot do, providing context implicitly with the user interface elements. Autocomplete's corresponding features are flag/function name completion, context (like the current directory) based completion... but they really don't do their job well.

I do not have any ideas about what the interfaces of the future will be... but text based interfaces won't be the future. Hence autocomplete might become obsolete...

<Sorry for the useless rant :-(>
These days schools do just ask directly for a donation via check if the parents afford it. Most schools don't have time to run a sales operation for useless stuff in addition to their primary job of educating children. And most schools' funding gap is far greater than can be raised by children selling tchotchkes.

People have come to the sober realization that the only way public schools get sufficient funding in the US (and to a lesser extent in the UK) is from private donations. The system has now baked this in as an assumption, even building local real estate markets around the shared consensus to privately financially support neighborhood schools.
Not probable and highly likely to be confounded by secular and social cofactors. These dietary models and recommendations in humans are dumb “one size fits all”. We know from extensive animal research that genome-by-environmental effects are pervasive and can be large. For example in a highly diverse family of mice, a very high fat diet—60% calories from lard—is advantageous in terms of longevity in a few family members; although also true that this extreme diet is generally deleterious (see bioRxiv paper by Suheeta Roy and colleagues, GXE BXD study, 2019).

The contrast between whole milk and no-fat milk is a comparatively subtle dietary shift.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, especially when they can impact millions of humans.
I prefer autocomplete to only appear when I ask for it. Often that is ctrl+space. It's a good compromise between the two extremes.

Around the time everyone was talking about tensegrity there was a researcher that had figured out a mechanism by which cells can sense pressure, due I think to mechanical stress on the molecules in membrane being detectable inside the cell. Proteins and lipids as proverbial nerve endings. They speculated from this that neurons rely on quantum effects, possibly using similar mechanisms, and that the surface area is involved.

The arms of neurons have a lot of the surface area, don’t they?
A simple example would be mixing map/reduce stuff on arrays with other non-built-in utility functions that take arrays without having to break the logical flow.

For a very simple example, manipulating and summing an array of values:

import { range, sum } from 'ramda';

range(0, 6)
|> x => x.map(i => i * i)
|> sum

Compare to:

import { range, sum } from 'ramda';

sum(
range(0, 6)
.map(i => i * i)
)

...and then add three or four other non-builtin methods in between map steps and consider the resulting readability.

Getting kids away from electronics is definitely important, and in some respects I find myself agreeing with multiple points from this:

I absolutely agree that (in the USA) K-12 Education's basis should indeed be civic education, or the education required to create excellent citizens. I also absolutely agree that giving kids "technology" (as smartphones, tablets, Baby Shark, and the rest are known) can be unexpectedly close to giving them crack depending on the circumstances.

However, there is one single thing with respect to computing I find relevant overlooked:

I also think it's critical, in a civic sense, that most of the populace has a general understanding of what computation is and how computers "work." Not because I think everyone should code for a career, but because everyone should be able to have some understanding of debates about topics like encryption or automation, and in general have an a mental scaffolding that outlines the invisible infrastructure supporting the daily experiences of our times.

In my view, absent this, too much of the citizenry will increasingly see "technology" in a way that verges on being a bit too close to "magic."

I'm not sure what exactly this means for K-12 education, but I'm pretty sure it means that despite my antipathy for pervasive classroom "technology," there should still be some sort of very planned and mediated curriculum that exposes students to "computing."
I had several legitimate businesses ask me for that. Thankfully they were fine with obscuring all but the last 4 digits of the card.

I don't get why they do it though. Faking a card photo is trivial so anyone trying to defraud them will just do so. These guys can manufacture physical replicas of cards to cash them out at ATMs, do the companies really think they won't be capable of altering a picture?

I'm assuming someone somewhere told them to do it and nobody took a minute to actually look into it deeper and realise how easy it is to exploit (and thus useless at preventing fraud).
The way one typically accomplishes this in bash is the following since the $() construct spawns a subshell.

#!/bin/bash

fun() {
res="result"
}

fun && echo "$res"

The same strace snippet.

lseek(3, 0, SEEK_CUR) = 0
read(3, "#!/bin/bash\n\nfun() {\n res=\"resu"..., 80) = 53
lseek(3, 0, SEEK_SET) = 0
prlimit64(0, RLIMIT_NOFILE, NULL, {rlim_cur=1024, rlim_max=512*1024}) = 0
fcntl(255, F_GETFD) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
dup2(3, 255) = 255
close(3) = 0
fcntl(255, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) = 0
fcntl(255, F_GETFL) = 0x8000 (flags O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE)
fstat(255, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0755, st_size=53, ...}) = 0
lseek(255, 0, SEEK_CUR) = 0
read(255, "#!/bin/bash\n\nfun() {\n res=\"resu"..., 53) = 53
fstat(1, {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0620, st_rdev=makedev(0x88, 0x2), ...}) = 0
write(1, "result\n", 7result
) = 7
read(255, "", 53) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, [CHLD], [], 8) = 0
rt_sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK, [], NULL, 8) = 0
exit_group(0) = ?

If you want use the old magics to return values like the built-ins then it's a little uglier but a lot cleaner.

#!/bin/bash

fun() {
eval $1=\""result"\"
}

fun res && echo $res

If you press tab twice in bash, it will display a list of completions and then another prompt below. If you hit tab again, it will generate another list of completions and another prompt. You should be able to still see the previous list of completions above. Zsh reuses the prompt and redraws the completion list, so once I hit tab, I cannot see what my previous completion list looked like.

I think they are fatality stats, not injury.
Nearly every object in orbit is already tracked and any specific object of interest can be tracked even more precisely, so no need for an additional API. That won't work as they use multiple hour exposures that accumulate the light, you can't "erase" something, as most of the info is already discarded, unless it's a deep stack. You can try recording the video of the same field of view with a smaller auxiliary telescope, accounting for the satellites that crossed the view of the big instrument in the resulting exposure. But that's still artifact-prone, and won't work in many cases (saturated pixels, very faint objects etc). You have to pause the exposure for every satellite that crosses the view, if that's possible at all.
