Sure, I can explain how to visualise it (I think :) )

First off, a note: lots of people think they know how to visualise GR, but actually don't. For example, explaining with marbles falling down curved rubber sheets doesn't help, because you're using gravity (the marble being pulled down) to explain gravity. And if you think you can just explain it with geodesics along a curved rubber sheet with a heavy weight in the middle, then think about how to explain why a stationary object falls towards the heavy weight.

Anyway, here is how to visualise it:

Imagine you are driving a car along some surface. We require that each wheel rotates at exactly the same speed with respect to the surface.
Now imagine there is a decreasing curvature gradient from left to right across the path of your car - in other words the surface below the left wheel is curving faster than under the right wheel. Seen from above, the left wheel has extra distance to travel in the vertical direction than the right wheel, to achieve a given horizontal distance. This causes the direction of the car to turn slowly to the left - in other words the car is 'gravitationally attracted' to the left - i.e. towards the region of greater curvature, i.e. towards the attracting mass.

To explain why static objects are gravitationally attracted to a mass, you just have to realise that according to Einstein, there are no such things as stationary objects (in some sense). Rather, even a 'stationary' object is travelling rapidly through spacetime. To go back to the car metaphor - the car is not stationary, rather it is always driving forwards (through spacetime).

Some notes on this - think about what a bizarre, weirdly-shaped surface the car must be driving over.

You can also think of the car front axle as being a wavefront of light.

And finally - if you think this explanation is too bizarre, don't blame me, blame Einstein. Personally I don't actually like GR as a theory due to how weird it is.

SATs don't test potential. They, and GREs, explicitly test general baseline knowledge in a couple of subject areas. A person who grew up in poverty is still going to do poorly on a standardized test unless they have committed at least some effort to learning those things (whether through school, self-study, or a form of tutoring).

Cross-platform and lightweight (as in memory) is a nice feature to have, especially if you want to get going really fast. Great for beginners too!

The UAE is not struggling to have enough money to eat. It's spending money to spend money because they have extensive oil and gas resources (and at least the wisdom to diversify their economy to enable them to better survive oil shocks).
This is why Microsoft was and is the devil. We must never forget Netscape, Be, constant virus attacks, and the bad old days when Internet Explorer was the dominant web browser which they allowed to rot like a garbage can full of shit. To use or develop with any Microsoft products today, or to work there or own their stock, is to agree with all of these terrible things.
I try to do my audiobooks and internet browsing in the morning. I try to exercise at lunch (home gym, crossfit style workouts) or do some reef aquarium maintenance. After work is usually some yard work (everything from lawn and garden to cutting up trees that have fallen in the back acres), play some banjo, play some pool, watch shows with the family, starting to sometimes take the boat out. The weekend tends to fill with errands and more yard work. Some more home projects are coming up to, like rebuilding a deck and some retaining wall work. It is about time to do some ATV rides and get back into hiking. It sounds like more than it is. I am switching up lots of things. I miss board games since no one around here plays and the family doesn’t enjoy them.
I am aware. :-) In fact, I used SciTE for a long time until discovering Geany via Crunchbang Linux, it was the default text editor in that distro. I found I liked its look-and-feel better than SciTE so I switched.

I think the argument is that it's far easier for wealthy families to game metrics that aren't being objectively measured. E.g. they can pay for all sorts of extracurriculars. They know to play up any hint of multiculturalism / diversity. Etc.

Outside of cheating, there's truly a limit as to how much gaming can go into standardized testing.

It's very unlikely that this lasts more than another semester or so though. If you're looking to enroll in the fall or the next year, it shouldn't be a big concern.

Apple does the exact same thing with startups and other IP.

Even worse, Apple has taken successful apps from their Store and offer their own one. Same as Amazon but for apps.

You could argue mega corporations doing it is worse than small companies because they have way more resources to outbid competitors.
Don't paint the whole field with such a broad brush. Yes, some people are happy to change anything and everything at any time for any (or no) reason. But don't assume that everyone's on board with that.
we don't have particle for gravity, but we also don't have particle for temperature. we just define it as statistical value of multiple particles and everybody is happy and don't search for some tempon particle. Maybe mass is also some statistical property of group of particles.

Couple of weeks ago there was post on HN about it.

If it takes more than a second to load a text editor (or even a light IDE) I have no use for it. It's not just slow to load, it's also cumbersome to use compared to my preferred tools. Even on my old Core 2 Quad with a spinning hard drive, Geany loads in a split second with several tabs already queued up.

As you said, perhaps it's perspective, but even on my latest build (Ryzen 3600/RX5600XT/NVMe SSD) VSCode is agonizing compared to Notepad++ on Windows and Geany on Linux.
Not a perfect match, but we use zoom.
Poor kids aren't going to have the resources to compete as equitably on extracurriculars. A kid in a wealthy school might be able to host a fundraiser for charity and raise thousands of dollars easily, while a kid at a poor school would be able to raise only a fraction of that. That poor student is also going to have more trouble showing excellence in art/sports/intellectual hobbies if their parents aren't able to pay or take time off to send them off to competitions. The schools might be adjusting for the difficulty, but they'll be doing it in a very non-transparent way.
This doesn't seem all that surprising --- I recall reading that steroids were also the choice of treatment for SARS many years ago.

I don't think it's quite as cut and dry as that. In some sense, the restrictions _enhance_ THE thing I bought it for - playing a wide range of games. A platform where piracy is trivial is less attractive to some publishers, which may mean they don't release games there, or release later than on other platforms. If the largely theoretical benefits of a more open platform (I'm simply not interested in using the hardware for other purposes, whether I can or not) cause even modest damage to the range of games available, that's not a good trade off for me.

Sony[1] with the PSP claimed that:

> There's a number of titles from American publishers that will be there, but are we getting full-line support? No. I'm not going to bullshit you on that.

> A lot of the stuff that will be announced at E3 we're very excited about, because they are huge titles. And we also believe that there's a way that you will be able to, not stop, but slow down the piracy in the first 30 to 60 days from a tech perspective. [...] That's been the biggest problem, no question about it. It's become a very difficult proposition to be profitable, given the piracy right now.

Of course they're incentivised to portray piracy as damaging to the platform even if it isn't changing publisher decision making to any significant extent, but it's an argument that makes sense, and I find it difficult to believe that it wasn't dampening publisher enthusiasm to at least some extent.

In some ways, I'd like to see a phased path to openness, where say ten years down the line or when official support is dropped, some of the barriers are taken away (most platforms get there anyway due to third party efforts, and as Sony allude to above, _slowing_ piracy can be sufficient), even if only to aid game preservation and avoid games being forever tied to a particular physical hardware platform.

The app store ecosystem only works for me because I stopped being interested in new apps as a consumer, and as a dev I long ago gave up on making mobile apps with any hopes of making money on them. The lack of viruses due to the locked down nature of iOS is a blessing, but app store discoverability is terrible and the only apps with any chance of 'making it' have marketing budgets in the millions, or happen to have connections on the inside at the App Store. It's shovelware or big budget games, with very little room in the middle for 'normal' devs.

Anyways, none of that excuses how Apple is forcing developers to pay them 30%. It's particularly egregious in a case like Spotify, where that 30% directly limits Spotify's ability to match Apple Music on price. But it's unacceptable even outside of that. Apple 1) Demands 30% of payment made with their in-app-payment system 2) Disallows alternative payment methods presented in-app and 3) Disallows sideloading, so there's no alternative for companies who can't compete under the terms of 1) and 2). At least one of those 3 need to change, and I hope the EU will manage to force that to happen.

>It's not just a matter of buckling down and getting it done. There are negative emotions associated with doing a set task and we know how to get rid of them: avoid the task.

I have been procrastinating on all types of home projects and they've been piling up. I'm not certain what is meant by 'negative emotions' in this case. One specific task I have is hanging up towel holders. The negative thoughts I have are generally around what happens if I do it wrong; are they crooked or do I have a bunch of holes in the wall. Is that what they are talking about? I didn't listen to the 22 minute audio clip, I'm guessing it is explained further in there.

Satire is meant to be funny and insightful.

This is not satire, it’s just a bunch of bored ignorant people mocking something they don’t relate to instead of spending the same amount of time trying to understand it.
To deepen the ethical quandary: what if Facebook had developed the exploit for this case, and then the FBI used it for an unrelated, not-child-molesty case?

At some point you have to wrestle with the fact that law enforcement is predicated upon having strong tools with which to deal with law breakers of all kinds, not just the few you find particularly onerous. They're going to need to perform ethical hacking to prosecute people under laws or circumstances you disagree with. And it would probably be better for us if they didn't always have to hack to get the information.

I think we need to work much more closely with law enforcement, not just technically on being able to lawfully intercept private communications, but in what laws and what cases its use is allowed. Nobody trusts the government in this age, but I think that needs to change, and it's the people that need to step up to reign in their government, not vice versa. That means more oversight, restrictions on when and how powerful tools can be used, periodic review, input into the design phase of new technologies, and so on.

We can use our brains to both make it more difficult for them to abuse advanced tools, and also make it more convenient to use them to solve serious crimes. We don't have to live in a black and white world where we either allow everything or allow nothing. We can live in a world of gray, but we have to step up to create that world; we can't just expect to keep saying 'no' to law enforcement and them being able to do their jobs, which is keeping our people safe.

I procrastinate. I am not sure there is a single reason, but one that I have clearly identified with a psy is the fear to be judged. By working in a hurry, it gives me a good excuse if the result is not perfect.
That's a fair point. I suppose it's not even guaranteed with FOSS, but open source makes it much easier to not have one company totally control the software/ecosystem, if nothing else because it keeps forking as an option.
Sorry about that. We've been dealing with a lot of traffic for the last two days and some errors were happening due to high load. We're looking into fixing these issues.
I am one of those young, childless egoists and would argue, that most people do not need to own a car in cities. Renting from time to time when I actually need one works great for me.

There are edge-cases and people living 40km away from their children, who are too young to use public transport, might be one of them. I am not saying it should not be allowed to own a car. There will always be edge cases, but if we optimize our rules a bit, many of the great reasons to own a car might go away. Often it is the other way round and people commute into the city to their workplace. I think we can quite easily work towards fixing this one.

I do have an argument, though: Your CO2 footprint is unsustainably big, even with an EV car, and your children have to face the consequences.

Climate aside, it is also ironic, that young children are the ones benefitting the most from carless environments, which is kind of the reason why young families often move out the the suburbs.

There is a line (fuzzy line, granted) between the general possibility and specific knowledge. An example might be: flying to the southeast coastal areas during hurricane season. There is an increased likelihood based on historical evidence of the weather canceling flights. But nothing specific. Once a storm is a named, has tracks with predicted (but still not certain) dates and locations, there is much more specific evidence. This type of situation is very difficult to write rules to handle every case, but we can create rules of thumb that the courts at least will tend to be even-handed about.
My American colleagues make substantially more that I do, plus a good health insurance plan.
You don't even need to raise the bar that much. A normal intelligence person who works hard is much better than a genius slacker. My experience is that a lot of people at the top of their high school classes get/stay their based on 1) general intelligence, 2) memorization skills, 3) socioeconomic advantages, 4) compliance. Of those factors, only #3 has a particular bearing on future success. At university, those who tend to be most successful as students tend to be those who are intrinsically motivated to work hard and study, and also those with socioeconomic advantages. After university, those with socioeconomic advantages tend to succeed regardless of their educational background, so there are fundamental reasons to investigate the systemic unfairness and discrimination in our society. Without trying to sound snarky, this is as linked to movements like BLM as it is to Harvard's discrimination against Asian applicants.
> Notably, one thing Apple does not need to give up is Windows support: Windows has run on ARM for the last decade, and I expect Boot Camp to continue.

I brought up the possibility of Bootcamp supporting ARM Windows on HN yesterday, and others responded with some rightful criticisms.

From mrkstu:

> The problem is that Apple has moved to a home-grown stack for it graphics and deprecated OpenGL and moved wholly to Metal. [...] There is no way Apple would create a Windows driver for that custom silicon—it has always relied on AMD or Nvidia for those drivers in the past, it has no in house code base or expertise to write the requisite code in Windows and none of the silicon has been optimized for it.

And from pavlov:

> I don't think there is a standard BIOS for ARM like there is for x86, so multi-boot would probably require Microsoft to support Macs explicitly in Windows on ARM.

Spotify is also complaining that "Apple won’t let us share awesome deals and promotions" [1].

I love you Spotify but I don't want your ads, I don't want ads on my phone period.

I'm currently using Android, and it's just ridiculous how much my phone is demanding my attention with notifications of "Rate us!" or "Look at this emergency news! Joke, it was just an ad". They even have "let me upload all of your contacts or I wont start"-apps. Android really lets the users decide, and the app-companies sure tries every foul play they can get away with, and to be frank, giving those app-companies a smack on the back of their head from time to time as Apple is doing can be a good thing.

That said, 30% is... hefty especially when some companies don't have too.

What usually happens in this circumstance is that the team forms a company and the government contracts with them for the work. Or, a large prime contractor reassembles the team upon getting a contract.

The fact that this did not occur points to a lack of capability on the part of the IRS to manage contracts.

I built a similar LCD projector when I was in high school! Same basic principal as is used here, shine light through a bare LCD panel (mine was from a broken laptop), add some fresnel lenses and a focusing lens and throw it all in a box.

Pretty cool, but just buy a damn projector. Do not approach this as something practical that's going to be useful, because it's not. It's huge, probably loud, you'll get dust and stuff stuck in all sorts of places messing with the image and it lacks advanced focusing like keystone transform https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keystone_effect
