> Having the width include the border because that is how a physical box works has to be one of the all time stupid design decisions of all time.

...no? If I want two side by side divs, I could give them width: 50%. But with regular box-sizing, if I apply a border to those boxes they'll stack vertically. That's pretty dumb.
A lot of it is because Democrats choose very strange hills to die on because it appeals to their base in more liberal/urban districts. Taking a weaker stance on policies important for single issue voters like gun rights for example would go an extremely long way.
Or cattle and poultry. So you’d probably indeed need to become vegan
I'm going to paraphrase something I heard from a neuroscientist and a computer scientist in a discussion once:

Spiking neural networks (of which brains are an example of) are a special case of mathematics called a petri network. We know how to run those mathematically, so in principle there's nothing stopping us from running a brain now. And yes, computers are definitely powerful enough to run some brains, as OpenWorm has demonstrated. You can try that for yourself, if you have the ability to run docker containers and a modest video card for the computations. It's even available on Docker Hub...

To run the emulation of a spiking neural network, you need three things:

1. A map of all the connections in that network (it's Adjacency List, or connectome)

2. A listing of all the rules that the nodes of the network execute

3. A computer powerful enough to execute those rules

And that's it. Sounds simple on paper, but in practice, we are still working on our ability to scan large biological networks.
*

The fly connectome here gives the first part of the process; we still need the ruleset for the individual neurons to calculate what they do correctly. There's been quite a bit of work on this part of the problem, looking into the field of optogenetic, and neural staining (brainbow) will give you a fair idea of the progress. Also, the Allen Labs in Seattle has been doing some outstanding work categorizing the different neurons, and the rules by which they operate. According to what I've seen of their work, it may be possible to get by with a (really sophisticated) combination of a lookup table and calculation to determine spiking rules, but I am not a specialist in that area, so take my observations with a sufficient dose of salt.
I don’t get what your point is.

If you’re trying to defend Chinese eating habits the vast majority of Chinese people don’t partake in eating “exotic” meats like bats, live mice, and dogs. Most would be horrified as well.
Preventative measures do not need to be just right so that number is no measurement of severity
> The claim is the virus originated from a wet market where animals like bats sold for food, so it’s not inaccurate to suggest it was transmitted by bats meant for human consumption.

It absolutely is. You don't have any evidence for this, just speculation. Is it plausible? Sure. Is it "most probably" (as the commenter above suggested, linking to a source)? No, there's no evidence cited that the disease was spread by eating bats in the article.

So yes, it is inaccurate to make a claim, and then cite a source which doesn't make that claim, without making it clear that you're just speculating, and have no actual information to add.
I'm quite old. 35. Note that 39 bpm is sleeping, 49 bpm is when I'm sitting down.

Also note that my VO2 max is only superior when compared to normal people in their 20s. Among athletes it's not that great. There are tons of people who run a lot longer than me and are faster than me, but no one I know has stuck to HIIT for a decade.

What is of note is that the 3 day a week interval training pushed my heart rate down waaay lower than normal. Additionally for the past 2 years I've been cutting back on my daily routine and while my endurance has gotten slightly worse my heart rate has not went back up. It's kind of concerning that this exercise has led to permanent changes in my heart. I think people need to watch out about HIIT training, it may not be good for humans in the long term.

If you have a gut feeling ('everybody hates Spirit') and hard facts ('Spirit is profitable and has loads of customers') that seem to contradict each other, maybe just maybe you should consider the possibility that your gut feeling is just flat wrong.

Have you heard of the Curry-Howard correspondence [0]? This states that a type system is actually a logical system. The types are propositions (logical statements) and their terms (the expressions of that type) are proofs. It's a straightforward syntactic correspondence:

- A -> B (Function type) and A => B (Logical implication)

- A * B (Product/Tuple type) and A /\ B (Logical conjunction)

- A + B (Sum/Tagged union type) and A \/ B (Logical disjunction)

Proving that A implies B is the same thing as writing a function that takes a proof of A and returns a proof of B. Proving the logical conjunction of A and B is the same thing as pairing together a proof of A and a proof of B.

So writing a definition that has a certain type is the same thing as proving a theorem.

Dependent types [1], which Coq, Agda, and Idris have, further the Curry-Howard correspondence. With dependent types, you can mention programs inside types and therefore express theorems about programs. You have:

- The dependent function type (x : A) -> B(x), where the return type B(x) is a function of the input x.

This is the same thing as universal quantification, "for all x of type A, B(x) holds."

- The dependent tuple type (x : A) B(x), where the type of the second element is a function of the first element x.

This is the same thing as existential quantification, "there exists an x of type A where B(x) holds."

So with dependent types, you can write mathematical proofs about programs. For example, you can show that a binary operation is commutative. Another good example is the "vector" type [2], which is like the functional-style linked list type, but parameterized over a length. Thus, you can prove that an index out-of-bounds error cannot happen. If you want to learn more about the theory, keywords to search up are "constructive math/proof," "intuitionalistic logic," and "Martin-Lof/intuitionalistic type theory."

> A majority of the content is still really good (climate reporting, international politics, 'explainers' and data backed reporting are all excellent) from the big institutions but I've totally avoided political and most opinion columns since 2016.

As I've gotten older, and become more educated on these specific topics, I've had the exact opposite reaction. Reporting on International politics in particular seems to have deteriorated to the point of being propaganda at best or outright garbage at worst. This is just recognizing the Gell-Mann amnesia effect at scale, I suppose, but to your point what Twitter has done is expose how little these people actually know about the subjects they write about. That seems like a net-good thing to me, since I'd rather we know that the people who pretend to know about the subjects they write about actually don't have at least a baseline understanding of what they're talking about. "Explainers" are probably the worst development here, since this is just advocacy journalism pretending to be "just the facts, ma'am". These "data journalists" have an explicit twitter personae that advocates a specific narrative, and then we all pretend that, for some reason, this doesn't leak into the reporting from the institution they work for.

There's probably no going back from this state, and I doubt that there will be any major changes in hiring practices at e.g. the NYT since this kind of journalism drives a lot of traffic. Cat is out of the bag, so to speak.

> If it’s unnecessary and you consume it (YouTube with ads), doesn’t this imply that it doesn’t suck?

in the common parlance, it is possible for something to "suck" and still be a good value. in my opinion, the experience of shopping at walmart sucks. I have a hard time finding things, I have a hard time finding employees to help me find things, and the thing itself is usually of poor quality. and when it's time to pay, I'll probably be waiting for one of the two cashiers to ring up two full carts worth of items for the person in front of me. as much as I hate it, I still go there if I need to buy a bunch of stuff where I don't care about quality.

if something is free, it only needs to provide an infinitesimal amount of positive utility to be a good value. I also hate google play music, but it's the best of several bad options to play music for free in my car.
I think you are probably correct. Lets try a set of simple cases.

( 4 % 3) == 1
( 4 %% 3) == 1

Are these two correct answers?

(-4 % 3) == -2 ??
(-4 %% 3) == 1 ??

Lets assume I got that correct and plug in some numbers.

a %% b == (( a % b) + **b** ) % b
-4 %% 3 == ((-4 % 3) + 3 ) % 3
-4 %% 3 == (-2 + 3) % 3
-4 %% 3 == 1

However I think it would be clearer for maintenance if the extra operator wasn't used and instead some 'math.absolute()' function were used.

My most recent Spirit flight was $200 cheaper than any other airline. I have a bag that's the exact personal item dimensions, and generally pack very light as it is, so the restrictions don't affect me at all. And honestly, I think largely because no one can recline, the seats are not that uncomfortable. I've been on more uncomfortable British Airways flights (they still fly some extremely old 747s on their North American routes).

So I save $200 to be slightly more uncomfortable for 2 hours, on a piece of my journey that simply has to happen. No one flies just for fun, people have somewhere they're trying to be.
Do they sell unlimited tickets at that price, or is like Megabus where the first person might get a $1 ticket but the price goes up as more are sold?

Modern aircraft are extremely fuel efficient. Per passenger seat a Boeing 737 MAX 9 gets up to 103 mpg including the weight of the aircraft, fuel, and cargo when fully loaded. On top of this skin drag, interference drag etc is independent of weight, further reducing the impact of a single passenger.

The difference of a single passenger on a fairly short flight is likely less than a gallon of fuel.

Hard to do in a reliable, controlled manner, yes. It's surprisingly easy however to do it messily. To push the analogy further, think about the early atomic piles.

Also note that nuclear requires a certain amount of collection of radioactive material, kind of like gold but much more expensive. Viruses can just be drawn from anyone's blood stream / mucus.

People don't quite realize the catastrophic risk our over educated society can be as we learn more and more about the building blocks of our universe, intelligence, organic makeup or otherwise.

Because Spirit's baggage fees are so high that it'll more than make up the difference in ticket prices. One reason why I prefer Southwest so much is because I can get both my carry-ons and two checked bags with the ticket price... which is still lower than any of the legacy carriers.

I wholeheartedly agree that there's a centralization concern about letting one company have so much power, but that doesn't change that there doesn't seem to be much advantage in another party being the review aggregator. If we can't figure out how to return control to the actual reviewers, Google is no worse of an aggregator.
One thing to keep in mind is that people who are buying 30 year bonds often aren't planning on holding them to maturity; rather, they are looking for an asset that is relatively stable in value while also generating a small return.

Can you estimate the probability of your scenario? Sure, you could use the historical volatility of equity returns to calculate the chance of that happening. However, unless you add in other factors that you think could realistically hurt future equity returns, I think you'll find that probability to be very small.
