Very disingenuous reply, you can clearly see what happened in the video. Unconfirmed reports from different media sources (which hesitated to report this extensively for obvious reasons) indicated rumors from the fact that they were organ harvesting to that they were thieves etc.
The specific comments I'm referring to have been downvoted and flagged into oblivion now so they're probably not visible unless you have the 'showdead' option in your user profile turned on (it's off by default). There is plenty of legitimate conversation going on too.

Absolutely. TBH, Instagram is not a suitable platform to do this. It's not so much lined-up as Twitter. I mean you can play around with the fancy lined-up on Instagram when one visited your profile but it doesn't deliver the main purpose of using social media for engagement. IMO.
Radical, indigenous, feminist, anti-colonial, self-organising. I think that's the real lesson, that almost all the problems were brought in from outside by exploiters and that the armed decolonization of the town was the real liberation.

It's not an ideal situation: you can't have a zero party state, that always turns into a one party state. The actual situation of control will turn out to be a set of family relationships embedded in the matriarchy running the town, but analysing this will be impossible for journalists. It's also why it's very difficult to replicate.

>One executive at Jio already confirmed they use DPI to monitor traffic on their networks,

Most ISP's worldwide do this, with varying levels of competency. Some provide the data for advertising, others use it for providing specific features/packs/traffic control.

Not excusing Jio, but I'm quite certain AirTel does this too (they had Sandvine many years ago), and other ISP's have trialed this technology in India as well.
I'm sorry, that sucks.

I hope they at least gave you notice so you could adjust and prepare instead of day-of/before "Hey, by the way!" Granted, a lot less people in tech are living paycheck to paycheck but it happens. Getting pinched there would be awful.

Regardless of how these things - layoffs, pay cuts, whatever - go down, doing it with respect is key. After all, these are the people we've worked with, helped each other, and probably had a drink or two with. We're not family but we are human and it's a small world.
Teams does a lot of things but not a single one is done well. Even the text chat, which has been working well for decades, is horrendously broken. The video calling is worse than Skype used to be before MS ruined it. I could go on.

Well there is the church in Washington where 45 out of 60 that attended a choir practice got infected in 2 hours. Homeless Shelter in San Francisco went from 5 cases to 70 in a couple of days.

Could be you had one person that infected 200 fellow prisoners over a couple of days. After that you only need a week to infect everyone.

Strikes me we probably I was well need to be really careful drawing naive inferences from epidemiological numbers. That said suspect limiting group contact sizes is really important because of stuff like this. In order to keep random highly infectious people from infecting large numbers of people in one setting.

Well, if I need to guess how many of the 30-40% people who disagree with the seatbelt law would use seatbelts if not mandated, and are now not using them to spite their own face, I am guessing a very low figure (not a large amount of people). Lower than the amount of people who were not using seatbelts and are now using them if for no other reason than to save themselves a fine at least.

I took a few weeks to stop smoking reguarly(20 in 2-3 days) , only when i was drinking. Then stopped totally when we stopped meeting for drinks with the covid19 "stay home" restrictions.

I think i still want to smoke when out for drinks. Like, what do you do? Just gulp all the beer in 1 go and leave? The smoking is good for pauses in between the alcohol.. But temporarily stopping is no hardship.

Taxes and maths are two very different things. The math part of taxes usually is easy, what's complex are the countless rules around it, e.g. what can be counted as a deductible expense and what not - additionally, most rules don't even make logical sense as they were written for political reasons (i.e. to appease one or another voter/corporate interest group).

> There is no winning strategy for cutting costs.

But there are better and worse ones. Cut once and cut deep is close to as good as it’s going to get.
At my school in England, once or twice a year the best/worst students in each class were swapped with the class above/below, based on the teachers' decisions. I had this for maths and French.

I completely messed up a French test on purpose, so the teacher had an excuse to put me in the class below. We really didn't like each other, and I did much better being in the top 25% of the middle class, rather than the bottom 25% of the top class.

British teachers call splitting up a year by ability for all subjects "streaming", and just for some classes "setting", and searching with both terms shows there's plenty of debate on the merits of each (or neither) method at all ages. Since I left the UK, it looks like politicians have been trying to get involved.
> [O]ne could just as easily label top universities with high scholastic admissions requirements to be “inequitable”, and thus unacceptable.

When trying to learn html/css and following multiple tutorials with different ways to achieve one thing, it truly feels like I'm just throwing shit at a wall and seeing what sticks. Sometimes nothing sticks. It's incredibly frustrating. Is there someone who writes tutorials who can actually explain what they're doing and why? Maybe something will work, but I'm not sure if anyone learned anything valuable from that kind of experience.
> Eventually, the grammar itself will be modifiable at runtime

Wouldn't that make programs hard to understand since you can't learn the syntax for once and all. It's like having a book with different pages written in 3 different languages, to understand it you need to understand all those languages.
People choose academia to be within (zero-sum) system and project the same expectations to students, while real life success is about being out of any system.
Hence the harm.
There might be big difference in which media you read and which experts you listened to.

I read imperial college reports and they raised my trust to experts. It was clear which assumptions they use and whether they aim for worst case, best case or what. I also seen experts debunk bad articles quickly, even through those got less traction and popularity.

(This ended up being a love letter to my musical journey, if that doesn't tickle your fancy then don't waste your time)

I like discovering new music. Very few people in my circle of friends like the music I choose to listen to. I think I have a specific pathway to how I got here:

I wasn't into Faith No More, I didn't like Epic at the time it was a hit, until I heard Midlife Crisis. That song blew my young teenaged mind. Cue the Angel Dust album and the weird, beautiful, jagged aural landscape it created. I researched Faith No More for their history, found The Real Thing, the song in particular but also the album are both highlights. Where my journey forks way off the known track is where my research came across Mike Patton's previous / parallel band: Mr. Bungle.

I found their first full-length album (self-titled, Mr. Bungle) on tape, and bought it. Holy fucking shit it was a chaotic mess of who-the-fuck-knows, what even is this? It's musical instruments, but they're being, I don't know, just bashed at incomprehensibly. I paid a hard-earned $25 for that tape though, so I was determined to get my moneys worth out of it, so I listened and listened and kept listening (I didn't have a huge catalogue of other music) and I eventually "got it". In the end you'll find patterns in the chaos because it is, after all, music; composed, designed, written, planned. It's up to the listener to put in the effort.

Mr. Bungle was the gateway drug that opened my mind to the joys to be found in complex, difficult, and original music, and part of my personality, how people know who I am, is defined by my obscure tastes and knowledge of music that's forever hidden only just under the surface of mainstream popularity (I'm by no means very deeply knowledgeable).

I get great joy finding new music that I like, and I'm always surprised when I find something new to me, but not new to the world, and wonder how I'd missed it all these years when it's exactly the kind of thing I would like.

My source of new music is pretty much exclusively ThreeD radio[0] a local independent, volunteer-run and listener-funded station in little ol' Adelaide, South Australia. There's a lot of gravel, but there are diamonds hidden amongst it.

Edited to add: I've only listened to Trout Mask Replica twice, so I'm a good five listen-throughs away from any semblance of understanding of that musical masterpiece.

TRIM is not involved when RAID is rebuilding. You are correct in that.
I feel lots of people have made the point that over time the emphasis on maths has been reduced such that education would be more useful to more people. I.e structuring the maths syllabus such that it would select for the maths super stars does a poor job of giving the run of the mill student much value from their maths education.

I do grad level maths every day but I’ve never stopped being a reluctant mathematician. Sometimes the maths of the problem is insightful and interesting but most of the time what I’m doing is battling to express/validate an intuition in a formal language.

I think that emphasis on maths as a language for the exact representation of your thoughts is maybe what the modern curriculum is up to, as opposed to the emphasis of maths as the language of your thoughts. Just the same way that you might write code to express designs; I think it’d be weird to think in code although certainly some (maybe even the best) do think about software in something closer to code than box diagrams.
Yeah please share the examples!

What you write sounds plausible, but it also mirrors a lot of what we hear from the right that is at times overstated.

I'd love to hear a set of sober examples- I don't have any connection to early education anymore and I'm really curious.
No. Because education was free, they could make the books harder. They didn't depend on students pumping money into schools. Didn't have to pretend to be "nice".

I added my parents to my Spotify family plan. My mum created a playlist called "Kitchen" that contains all her favourite songs she could remember at the time and plays nothing else!

They still listen to the radio more and then complain about the adverts.
It doesn't have to be larger than the number of people who use a seat belt because of the law, only the number of people who use a seat belt because this campaign was more effective than an alternative campaign that isn't so antagonistic, e.g. one that emphasizes the risk of death rather than the risk of fine, which you would generally expect to be a bigger motivator anyway.

And the better campaign may in particular be more effective at getting the people who weren't wearing their seat belts originally and still don't under this campaign, because they're more likely to be the defiant ones to begin with, so they're more likely to be receptive to a less antagonistic campaign.

> NHK reports that several prefectures which were unable to sustain the prior strategy of hospitalizing all diagnosed cases have begun moving less severely affected patients to hotels/etc or asking them to self-sequester at home, temporarily freeing up bed space.

Heck, that was common knowledge some fifteen years ago during my freshman year. I personally never bought those American coursebooks. For the price of one brick, I could pretty much buy all the required self-study material printed form. After my sophomore year, they did away with the university press anyway and told the professors to just make their materials available in electronic form.

Besides, when you're in uni, you're learning to study, not learning to be hand-held.

I think you’re a little mistaken — it’s been a while since I’ve used Chromium on GTK, but on Mac and Windows it has never really used native widgets/controls. This change is good because it goes from something that looks straight out of the late 90s no matter what your computer’s OS is, to something that _probably_ looks a _little_ more like whatever your OS looks like.

Depends. It seems to me that in general, post-USSR, school textbooks went through a nosedive in quality. I was educated in the 90s and 2000s in Poland, and experienced the modern, "capitalist" textbooks. At the same time, my grandfather showed me books from 60s-80s period. World of a difference.

What I remember the most was the contrast between the English language textbooks from ~80s vs. the ones I had in school. The modern ones basically exist for both publishers and schools to milk parents. They come in three or four pieces - a book and an exercise book for students, and then an exercise book with answers and some compendium for teachers. That's four books, structured in a way that necessitates attending (and paying for) classes. Meanwhile, the 60s-80s era English books were structured for self-learning. You could work through them with the help of a teacher, or you could do it alone.

(Note that while being self-contained, they've also managed to be smaller. That's because they were free of space fillers. Being set on something one step up from a typewriter limited the amount of bullshit designers could include to zero.)

By the time I was finishing high school in 2007, the regular public school's textbooks for subjects like Polish, math and physics have suffered from the same disease English language books did - they've been split into several pieces, refreshed yearly (ensuring there's almost no second-hand market for them), and structured in such a way you couldn't learn on your own.

I have a few of my grandfather's English books in my basement somewhere; I decided to keep them for my children, so that they have a quality textbook to learn from.
As usual the solution to this type of problem exists in insurance. If you get into an accident and you weren't wearing a seat belt then you pay correspondingly higher insurance premiums for the rest of your life sufficient to pay for the claims filed by other people not wearing seat belts who become disabled.

Assuming they want to be able to file a disability claim, because the problem is caused by the insurance to begin with -- if the problem is that people will be more likely to file an insurance claim then the solution is for those people to pay a higher premium if they want the insurance.
