It's something that can and does happen in many cases, depending pretty much entirely on the attitude of the parents.

Or, in other words, it's not actually the homeschooling that is the problem. It's the attitudes of the parents. And it turns out that when you have cruddy parents, public-school outcomes aren't good either.

Mothballed or to-be-scrapped planes often get their paint jobs covered up, as no one wants to see a Qantas plane looking like it's falling apart.
It's not worth paying $9.99 to simply resize a 4000x4000 image to a 500x500 (for example). That is basic functionality that should be built-in and not need some third-party app.

It's a weird design choice to consider portrait the default, because all first-party accessories (the triangle cover thing, the keyboard cases and folios, and now the magic keyboard) are about using iPad in landscape. When using any of those accessories, the camera on the side is just weird.
Or so they claim. The legal arguments that museums rely on to assert this are ... really bad. I mean really bad. But taking on the combined might of the UK museum sector is not a good idea. So we have to pretend that a couple of irrelevant old judgements mean that "sweat of the brow copyright" isn't the nonsense it so plainly is.

Rust will start edging out Go once Rust becomes easier than Go to prototype/start projects.

Rust is a great language, but right now I can start a project in Go and have someone else start a project in Go and have something up and working in a week. Rust still takes significantly longer to learn and/or find skilled developers for. Go is up there with Python in terms of "Get something out now".

I have a mental picture of someone hitting the wrong pedal, hitting a 737 in the employee parking lot, and having to call insurance.

The word you want is "loan." The Fed makes loans, not grants. Maybe you have this confused with the stimulus bills Congress has been passing?

There is also no direct connection to taxes, since the Fed creates any money it needs.
I really really want to use this, I have used it in the past. It works great as far as I could tell except for one thing: bandwidth limits[1].

But I can't recommend Joe and Jane Consumer to install IPFS and some other thing with a straight face, because they'll say, "Well bittorrent can do it!?" and I don't have a good answer.

> the market has absolutely failed to price the "goods" created by these people according to their incremental cost.

Your right. The wealth Jeff has vastly comes from his ownership of his business, of which he alone didn't make it what it is today. Many workers helped contribute and make it what it is today, but they're not anywhere as wealthy as they're weren't fairly given part ownership in the business they contributed in making...

You could argue the workers were paid a wage which they could of invested into a share of ownership in the business, but it's still unfair. There's a limited amount of stock to go around (unless the company issues more stock), existing owners stand to benefit more when this happens.

Stock behaves just like money in regards to it's store of value. Print alot of it, without making goods, and it becomes worthless and vice versa.

Therefore for fairness, ideally companies should print stock equal to the growth in their value and given to those who made the value. But lol at this pipe dream, as share prices wouldn't ever change much, so existing owners would be against it as they wouldn't benefit from it (unless they also worked in adding more value). Nevermind the difficulties in objectively attributing value...
But that misses the point. The very fact that a few people at Google/Youtube have the power to censor whomever they want for whatever reason they choose is a problem in itself.

Are the doctors in the video saying untruths or misrepresenting data? I think what they said in the video was eminently reasonable. But perhaps I'm wrong. Luckily we have the freedom to publicly critique their claims - assuming our critiques aren't censored by major internet companies - which is how falsehoods and untruths should be dealt with, not with censorship.
I was responding to the following

You're right in that the SE is Apple cannibalizing its own brand, the same way Starbucks did in the 2000s.
Apple is the quality leader on the market, not cost leader, so the SE is not good indicator of the direction a company that relies on brand is going.
It's like Ferrari releasing a commuter vehicle. Sure it may sell a lot up front but it cannibalizes future sales.

That has nothing to do with Apple being “fine” for Covid.
There's something beautiful and odd about reading the page about how much "Windoze 98" sucks, in 2020, from a computer running Xubuntu with the fabulous Chicago 95 theme[1] that brings back the old aesthetic.

I agree with deepfakes are derivatives. You're using the likeness of someone whether visual or audio to highlight work. People pay attention because of that likeness. Weird Al asks for permission, video games have to pay royalties. So JayZ should have been asked permission in that sense.

If this was a parody, that could probably be argued very differently. Not sure where this particular case falls legally.

I don't agree with if you don't own the copyright you are infringing by publishing something the model produces. It should be tied back to the likeness of the original source.

The argument would be - if I never used any copyrighted JayZ sources (talking in a public setting, not giving a speech) and produced a deepfake, provably so, that would prevent me from being sued by JayZ & co?

Ideally no, because I'm still using his likeness to promote something.

This level of reporting is pretty par for the course in US media. It's just reporting what happened without much commentary.

And really, the idea that news media need to herd their audience into thinking the right things is ridiculous. It's a news article, not an editorial.
Well, yes, but it has the important difference that being in public school can hardly fail but to give you a certain minimum level of social skills and in most cases one or two friends at least. And on the other hand being homeschooled by bad parents can hardly fail to have a bad outcome for you.

Also, can you use ">" to offset quotes instead of four spaces? Because HN uses that for code, it's not readable for mobile users.
They said they're culling misinformation and they're doing it. I don't see what's terrifying about this. Maybe unsettling if you're aggressively pro-free speech, but 'terrifying' is very hyperbolic.

And that's recorded cases.

There might be people who died from Covid-19 who weren't tested post-mortem, especially in February when the virus was flying under the radar.

NYTimes had an article which showed a number of places around the world have had a surge in deaths compared to the same time period in previous years. And even if you subtract the known Covid-19 cases, there's still a sharp increase in the count.
No, the burden is:

- for the customer all the hoops he has to jump through now to get serviced because corporations implemented those in order to be "compliant" (e.g. I just tried to get detailed information for an expected UPS delivery - instead of a simple click it requires registration with "UPS My Choice", meaning one page for logging in with FB/Google/Amazon/Twitter or a new account, one page for detailed disclaimer and terms, one page for country/postcode input, one page with my detailed name, address, e-mail, phone number, more T&C acceptance, ...)

- for the company to design, evaluate with a lawyer all these procedures and related customer services.

Perhaps you will never be in the position to see it from a small company's side, but don't deny that you're as annoyed as everyone else with all the explicit consent forms.
Why don’t most VPC providers offer IPv6? Is there some kind of implementation issue with it, or just that you don’t need it.
FYI: Southwest started small, but they're one of the largest US carriers now - a major. I remember when they were the scrappy startup, but:

"As of 2018, Southwest carries the most domestic passengers of any United States airline."

LionAir, which had one of the 737 MAX accidents, has a similar story, and will probably end up being a similar size. Only started in 1999, most of the new aircraft model launches are done with them, and they have 234 planes on order.

I had ~3300 bookmarks and just decided to bulk delete half of them that lived in random folders. Now i'm at 1400. Most of them are CS/tech/coding related. When I save a link I make myself believe its something important that I'll find useful in the future. The truth is I don't even know what is in my bookmarks anymore and I hardly ever go back to manually check what javascript article I bookmarked one year ago. Nowadays, I just use firefox awesome bar that, by default, searches through my bookmarks when I type something to search for. I also find tags much better at organizing bookmarks than folders and I'm happy firefox supports this feature.

I'm aware. The creator occasionally pokes fun at the Rust folks for arguing that Envoy should have been written in Rust. And rightly so--Rust wasn't mature at the time Envoy was written.

If we revisit that now, C++ is the wrong language to start Envoy in today.
Do Facebook and others use pre-quantum encryption? Is it reasonable to say that if and when the NSA (presumably doing full take of these comms) has a quantum computer capable of performing Shor’s algorithm, that they will be able to decrypt all of these comms?

What is the possibility that radically advanced tech including quantum computers well beyond what’s currently available already exists in secret?

A natural byproduct of a functioning society has always been otherwise avoidable deaths: car accidents, workplace accidents, flu deaths, etc.

The idea that we can hide out until the virus completely disappears is a fantasy. The only sustainable path forward is targeted lockdown and isolation for the most vulnerable along with mustering our energies for testing and treatment.
Yes, I'm sure. On your seventh birthday, you have lived for 84 months. So three months for someone seven years old is as much additional life as 17 months is for someone 40 years old. That is how much time of both schooling and bonding with friends that they lose with no easy way to catch up. It's a fact of life that the older you get, the harder it becomes to learn new things so you can't just extend the kids schooling with an additional three months.

I'm positive the quarantine will be noticeable in student assessment programes. The longer the quarantine, the larger the drop in test results.
...there are a lot of cool and useful integrations popping up: https://blog.ipfs.io/weekly-84/.

go-ipfs is where the majority of new development happens right now as the desktop/server implementation (compared to js-ipfs=browser & rust-ipfs=IoT) - but if you want to prove that Rust is clearly better/faster _in general_ - have at it: https://github.com/ipfs-rust/rust-ipfs ;)

I think the thing jbenet was selecting for back in 2013 was concurrency support & modularity, and golang is still a decent choice for that. Rust 1.0 didn't happen until 2015 after the go-ipfs alpha was already out - but agree it's made awesome progress since then!
Are there services that have opportunistic end-to-end encryption that is only disabled if someone is calling in from a landline? That seems vastly superior.
Your comment seems like misinformation to me. Surely HN should take it down.
Censorship / availability is the issue. As you lay out, Sybils can be used to target a specific address / piece of content in an attempt to prevent it from being found. The good news is that there are some pretty mechanical things - like maintaining a consensus of known-trusted nodes that can be used to validate a node/piece of content isn't under attack - that should be sufficient until IFPS is quite a bit larger than it is today

I don't think I see the impersonation / bad resolution problem though. IPNS records are content addressed to the key. Having control of a portion of the network isn't sufficient to compromise that (you can prevent availability though).
This. The unsuccessful ones simply won't speak up, because they know that they'll get eaten alive on any Internet forum. Or they will talk about education in general terms without mentioning their own kids.

If your kids are struggling, it must be because you are immoral, lazy, have bad "culture," etc. Internet discussions of parenting always devolve into success theater.

But the kids themselves will eventually speak up. If you follow HN for a while, you will also read stories from a surprisingly large number of successful people who had deeply negative experiences in school as kids. I got through high school by pretty much ignoring all of the "content" and doing well enough on exams to get OK grades, plus I had fairly high test scores, and didn't aim too high with my college applications.
If you’re home-schooled, then how do you make childhood friends? How do you meet that dreamy girl, that you remember after all these years, just because she did something nice for you once.

You meet kids in your co-op. Or in your extracurricular activities (if you don't have access to non-school-related options like karate classes, dance classes, community sports leagues, etc., plenty of school systems still permit homeschooled kids to register for their extracurricular programs). Or by hanging out with your parents' friends kids. Or by playing with other kids in the neighborhood after school.

While public schooling does have its drawbacks, and some bad bullying scenarios (we’ve all been there), it also does have some good things. And you meet a variety of other kids, that comes from different walks of life, that may positively (or negatively) influence your own life.

Yes, it does. And for some people, public school is the best option. One of my sisters, for example, has a mix of kids in public school, private school, and homeschooling, because each of them has different needs and different approaches to schooling have ended up working out better for each child. But the fact that each option has its strengths does not mean that homeschooling is deficient.

Sure, you can supplement your kid’s social activities with going to church, or karate, or ballet, or piano, or other extracurricular activities, but it’s not quite the same.

Of course it's not the same. That's the whole point. But "not the same" does not mean "worse".

Church, for one, is too cohesive, and results in groupthink.

Depends on your church.

And that’s if you really want your kid to worship a bible, instead of understanding science.

Again, depends on your church. I grew up in a religious family, and made many friends through church, but I still got degrees in two scientific fields, as did several of my siblings, and I don't think you could accuse any of us of "worshiping a bible" or "not understanding science".

The other extracurricular activities on the other hand, lacks cohesion, that you don’t build lifelong friendships through that.

You have no evidence for that. My nieces and nephews, and homeschoolers I know of my own generation, would say exactly the opposite.

The other thing is, home-schooling tends to shelter your kids.

No. Homeschooling is sometimes used as a tool b people who want to shelter their kids to give them greater control. But it does not in and of itself result in excessive sheltering. Some of my niblings have online homeschool classes with kids from all over the country, with way more diversity than they would get in their local public schools.
An order of magnitude usually means 10x, ie 140 vs 14. According to your article, Sweden has had a lower death rate than the UK, Spain, or Italy.
I think most people are realizing it isn't so much the teaching aspect as it is the daycare function that schools serve. So the discussion might be about compensation, but it is very much about how much what I would call "structured daycare" is worth.
I worked for 5 years as an "assistant language teacher" (ALT) in Japan. The idea is that you have the normal teacher teaching the class and an ALT who assists. At its worst you end up with the teacher lecturing and the ALT reading things out of the textbook. However at its best you have this awesome tag-team where one person is guiding the class and the other is spotting confused faces and fixing problems before they get big.

The main problem with this approach is that teachers are generally not used to working cooperatively. They have their "way" and they don't like to deviate from that "way". As odd as it sounds teachers also don't like being observed in the classroom. Teaching is incredibly difficult (by far the most difficult job I've ever attempted to do). The constraints you usually have to work with also mean that failure in at least some forms is inevitable (or to put it another way -- failure is the norm and you take your successes where you can get them). Because of this teachers are often incredibly defensive about how they approach tasks and decisions that they make. As much as I hate it, it is completely usual in my experience that teachers obfuscate what's going on in the classroom. Having other teachers present is really challenging for most teachers that I've encountered.

I honestly believe that team teaching is the way to go, but there are a lot of hurdles that you need to deal with before you can get there. The technology is not really the stumbling block. It's much more the social dynamic and the need for realistic and sensitive teacher evaluation methods. With some students you can literally just lock them in a room and they will learn the material. With other students, it doesn't matter how good the teacher is, they will just refuse to learn (for a huge variety of reasons -- medical, physical, psychological, etc... things that no teacher is realistically able to cope with). Quite a few teachers have realised that they can game the system by simply filtering the students by how easy they are to teach. And because teaching is a very stable job with a reasonable income, you are always going to get a fair number of people who are more interested in gaming the system than teaching stuff. And as is usual in large organisations, people who are good at gaming the system and have no interest in the technical side of the job tend to rise to the top of the decision making ranks. It's quite a difficult problem to solve.
