>1. If an insurance company finds out that you’re more predisposed to a disease, they will charge you or your employer a higher rate

I've never really understood this one. Do you want to force insurance companies to spread the costs associated with insuring high-risk individuals across their whole clientele via this information opacity? Why not just use a single-payer system instead of that Rube Goldberg machine at this point?
This is not feature flag then it's A/B testing.
IIRC SystemJS can be used without any transpilation at runtime. ESM cannot (unless natively supported of course, like it is in browsers)
> FWIW the specific mistake you're making is thinking about this in a way that overemphasizes the context of the school system.

I am? I have spent literally thousands of hours volunteering for a free online education platform that operates entirely independently from school systems. Although some schools do use it. Some of my family was home schooled. Along with that I have actual teaching experience outside the public school system. I still don't consider myself an expert because I know far less about teaching than I do about my main gig: programming and technology. But claiming I am thinking about this in a specific way is a wrong assumption on your part.

> There’s also no contradiction between learning through games and learning by doing. Everything we do in real life has game-like properties, you just have to find them.

The article is about video games, not games. For some things there is a contradiction. If you want to learn to ride a horse or play guitar then a guitar or a real horse is the game. A video game will never come anywhere close to just picking up a real guitar or riding a real horse.
That quote is not really relevant: TS is as functional as JS.
Georgia Tech has an online MS in CS or Cybersecurity. The CS degree is a little cheaper, classes are roughly $650 each, cyber are around $900. You're looking at around $7k or $12k for the entire degree. I'm currently in the Cybersecurity program if you have any questions.

Another option is NYU's Cyberfellow's MS for cybersecurity. It's around $16k

Docker on ARM Linux doesnt use x86 emulation, I'm not sure why Docker on ARM macOS would.

edit: I am aware not all Docker containers run on aarch64. But that has been changing already, and presumably would accelerate if Apple goes all in on ARM.
This is something the philosopher Daniel Dennett has written about at length. The nature of our consciousness is not as it appears. (Here's his TED talk [0].)

As you say, blinking rarely makes its way into conscious thought, despite that the visual input was briefly suspended. (I suppose a similar thing happens with smell. How often do you notice that you don't smell much when you breathe out?) Neither do we notice that our various senses have different latencies, reporting the same event at different times.

As I understand it, the blind spot in our vision was only discovered relatively recently. For countless millennia, mankind wasn't even aware of it, and not for lack of curiosity. I suspect the same goes for our colour perception.

Senses can even blur together - the input from, say, your sight, can affect how you perceive taste, or texture.

As you say, this kind of 'smearing' is a brilliant feature of our minds, it's not an ugly hack at all. That we aren't able to intuit the precise nature of how we perceive things, is a small price to pay, both in evolutionary terms and in terms of the elegance of the system, to my mind.

On a less substantive note: reading lengthy writeups on Twitter is singularly painful. I do wish people would make the leap to the blog-post format for this kind of thing.

As inetsee said, it is because of space. I got rid of a whole wall of shelves in my home office to make room for a meditation area and room to have my instruments out and handy.
The first time I did MDMA that was driven home to me in an undeniable fashion. Nothing about my life situation changed but this cloud of anxiety and fear that I had been living in since I was a child lifted like clouds breaking in a thunderstorm. I felt genuinely happy and safe for the first time in my life and it made me realize how arbitrary my emotional interpretation of the world was most most of the time. I realized I could choose to be happy, choose to be friendly, and people would reciprocate it.

Now, MDMA was bullshit in its own way, of course, but I’ll forever be grateful for the realization it gave me. It changed my life.
Yes to everything about the US system having some serious problems and being fairly unique relative to the rest of the world.

> Software will eventually be able to read an essay and provide feedback on how well the argument was made, as well as the nuts and bolts of how sentences are put together... Imagine for example the task is to convince an AI to buy you a pony. You have to write a persuasive essay as to why you should have a pony. The AI can...

No, it can't.

Giving good feedback on essays in high school English or History courses is AI-complete.

"Some type of feedback" is already possible (you can go buy essay graders today -- go try one), but if we go that route we'll mostly just be teaching people how to optimize for a (very broken) grading algorithm.

"'The AI' will then <do thing that we spend years teaching people how to do well>" is exactly how you end up with horribly shitty ML code destroying people's lives.

TBH we're not even there with high school math yet, which is a lot easier than high school essays.

I have a CS PhD, publish in AI conferences, and have taught high school. I am fundamentally absolutely certain that high-quality grading of high school English/History essays is not possible. I'm also certain that we could build "something" that "grades essays" and will have catastrophic negative outcomes for a generation of students if adopted. Students will learn how to write for one really dumb algorithm, and then there will be years of cleanup at universities and workplaces afterward teaching them how to actually write for humans.

> but to be clear, _almost all_ motivation in education is extrinsic now. Nobody is doing their math homework because its fun. They do it so they won't "fail".

My classroom experience suggests that a) this isn't true, and b) there are lots of different types of extrinsic motivation; grades are actually not the most important motivator for most students. People are really complex, and everyone has different motivators.
More toppings! There's something on that I don't like.
Video games are great, but the future of education is personal relationships and caring.

There’s this (seems like mostly unchallenged) assumption that more technology improves education.

What if more (or any) technology is actually counter-productive for most learning?

I’m thinking mostly here about k-12 students, and I’m not talking about actually learning technology (which would definitely demand access) —- but everything else?

That's an interesting take. To some degree, I think I agreeing with you.

I write a lot of Purescript and a lot of Clojure. Purescript, being basically a Haskell variant, is about closing down every last little part of the system into types. You _do_ pick up a lot of visual noise for this (like `liftEffect` ugh...). Whereas Clojure, is the polar opposite. It's about keeping the system open, using large chunks of data, and having functions take/change what they need and pass along everything else none-the-wiser to what's present.

Bouncing back and forth between these two worlds, I think I've begun to lean towards the opinion that I really only care about strict types at the boundaries of my program and certain very specific checkpoints along the way (generally, something like a module/namespace boundary).

Clojure has Spec, but it misses the mark in my opinion because it doesn't solve refactoring. It's not (currently) instrumented enough to help the me as a human make changes to the code without also just "bumping into the guard rails" to try and figure out what I broke along the way.

A middle ground orthogonal type system sounds really appealing to me. "Type coverage" is an idea I've been kicking around. Something like Spec in Clojure, but more symbiotic with the host code such that it can tell you things _about_ your code and help in refactoring, symbol resolution, etc..

That's a lot of words, but tl;dr I think I agree with you : )
I agree with you, and I also think whether games will be educational or not often as a great deal to do with temperament. But, like other media, put high quality, rich content with multifaceted depth is key to making an environment in which someone could learn something.
Yes they can. There's a name for that: shadow IT. All of a sudden you realize that the annoying engineers have stopped annoying you not because they become better people, but because they got the credit card of some VP and got their own platform on AWS.
Yeah I don’t know if at this point it even matters. I was nervous about even leaving this comment. Maybe showing my decade old bias.
Yeah, Morse theory is really cool!

There's a way to adapt this sort of proof to show that every polyhedral sphere (like the polyhedra considered in the article), when thought of as residing in 3D space, bound a polyhedral ball.

For this, you flood all of space and look at how the cross sections of the polyhedron vary with time. (Hatcher has some notes on 3-manifolds that outline a proof sketch.)
Other countries have faced similar contradictory situations. The post-apartheid South Africans have completely failed to exterminate the white minority, there are still Hutus in Rwanda, and the German military was needed for a possible Soviet invasion. (Wait, that last isn't a good example.)

Reconciliation was necessary if you didn't want the United States to go the way of, say, Mexico. The "Lost Cause" business just went too far, freezing the process for a hundred years.
Sorry, what is PIMLICO? Googling it comes up with a lot about the location in London.

There is nothing elitist about it. I am also not knowledgeable of medicine or law, and I ask friends or family for advice. However, trying to convince people that “free” is not free is a very hard argument to have. I have used this video in the past to help my case, even if it caricaturizases the effects:

Apple has ~$100B cash in the bank. If they wanted to increase market share by lowering prices, they could.
If they made it in 2010, without updates, it's no longer on the App store. Apple takes down things that don't get updates.
Oh THAT way round, that's super cool!
I was thinking the other way.. "See what that stinking pile of javascript and css looks like in Mosaic", but, this is actually useful! :D

Perhaps I'm counting this wrong, but Chess24 tournament coverage gets 10x or 20x more views than a Hikaru stream gets on any given day. For example today's Chessable Masters video has 50k+ views, yesterday's 80k+. Hikaru's stream will get 2k views on a random good day. I see numbers bigger than that on http://analysis.sesse.net/ whenever it's live!

There's no doubt that blitz - and people like Hikaru and Chessbrahs explicitly tapping into the e-sports potential - is driving a lot of interest, but it still seems like real tournament play, coupled with in-depth commentary and analysis, is very popular. I also don't think we should underestimate the impact of the explosion of content out of St Louis and Atlanta (which again, get higher views on every educational video than Hikaru gets on his streams).
AES is as fast or faster than ChaCha if there is hardware acceleration. OpenVPN is slow for other reasons, and honestly the crypto is usually not the bottleneck in most cases unless you are really pushing multiple gigabits or it's a very small CPU.
I learned networking through reading the book recommended in this website, and playing around with wireshark along with some other stuff. The book itself was about 800 pages, but breaking it down by sections made the task much more manageable
Hmm, "see also" strikes me as pretty unambiguous phrasing.

I wonder if the problem is that when people are skimming, they're going to to miss a pair of short words in favor of the larger URLs (and by "larger" I mean the physical space the text occupies on screen). A bunch of links to the same post will always seem damning if you don't know better.

That makes no sense. That device is almost bleeding edge and should be just as fast if not faster than your router. Only thing I can think of is the ethernet port out of the modem isn't gigabit and that's why it's slower.
The really short answer is that (one off) the definition(s) of SVDs uses the transpose, which requires a inner product.

I want a second, locked-down internet/web that coexists with the current internet. The type of controls:

- A decentralized group of "meatspace" businesses provide notarization. To get an "account" to use the network and its websites, it is mandatory that a person provide government ID. Users can allow a notary to make arbitrary types of information about themselves public (eg: prove they once had cancer,prove they travelled to Cuba, prove they have a high-school diploma, etc). "Private" info is still available to law-enforcement. This makes users more accountable, both for breaking laws, and for (to use the phrase loosely) stolen valour. It might be useful, in addition, if users needed to provide some deposit as collateral in case they abuse notarization.

- The web piece of the network uses a protocol with no page- or site-provided style sheets. A developer can create a style-sheet, but the user chooses styles per-browser (eg: the same style-sheet for all websites they view). This makes for a dull, but usable, web-browsing experience. No font-sizes changing, articles laid out the same everywhere, widgets work the same everywhere.

- The web piece of the network uses a protocol with no page- or site-provided dynamic features (ie: no scripting). Any dynamic features (eg: a login box, or an upload status bar, etc etc etc) need to be standards. The group responsible for this new web protocol can always treat the old web as a playground from which to steal ideas. This makes shady advertising, and many types of hacking, impossible.
> reading "high quality code" can lead to a premature focus on code-quality

I don't think so. There's a difference between a skilled software developer making tradeoffs under time pressure, and someone who doesn't know what good code even looks like.

If you aren't capable of writing good code, you aren't qualified to make the right tradeoff.
There are some very small ones, too.

Artem, do you know if there is a parameter for ordering the RSS results by time for the Google News RSS results? This is very helpful.

Finally, I pay $2000+ annually for a competitor to NewsCatcherAPI. It may be worth connecting. I signed up for a trial earlier and the two issues for me would be (i) the range and depth of publications and (ii) not being about to track mentions / references in the body of the article.

I may not be your target audience but one of your competitors is pulling in 10m articles with the full article content per day. I use the API for timely alerts for PR monitoring -- my priority is that I pick up mentions of companies / individuals wherever they happen quickly.

Your pricing is a lot more competitive. I just wonder whether you are looking to move in the direction of range and depth in the future, or whether you're targeting a different market segment.
I think these philosophies are complementary, I could easily see one being the inspiration for the other, just are there are analogs between guard expressions and pattern matching with logical predicates.

Ideas are contagious.
In the magic world where capitalism's "vote with your wallet" actually works (which as vegetablepotpie points out is fictional), email addresses given to corporations have the form "[random base64 UUID]@generic-mail-service.example.com", phone numbers are similar but base ten, businesses don't distinguish between 'real' names and "John Q Smith", and mailing addresses (given to corporations) are of the form "[random base64 UUID] care of [US postal service or a more cooperative competitor thereof]".

(I guess this technically assumes that voting with your actual vote also works, at least for the purposes of removing abusive know-your-customer laws, but lack of gratuitously harmful regulation seems in line with the libertarian-esque philosophy behind "vote with your wallet", so... eh.)

Not entirely sure of the architecture of this app, after a quick look. Using CEF and C++, with a client and a proxy. But where does the CEF sit, and how is it controlled by the client?

I made something similar in Node.JS using headless Chrome, that targets mobile and desktop browsers. The "proxy" runs anywhere, and a client (that runs in the web browser) connects using Remote Debugging Protocol[0], passing along the user interaction intents by converting them to the wire protocol of RDP. The remote browser server then, like this project ( I think ), passes back pixels from screenshots of the rendered web.

It's a safe but not particularly fast way to do it. MightyApp[2] are doing some sort of MP4 streaming of a remote browser, for speed, I think.

I like the retrocomputing focus of this, and the screenshots and image of the modern web running on an old ThinkPad like machine look really awesome. The focus of my project[1] was more an open-source remote isolated browser, for security, and automation uses.

We used PLATO in some class I was in at Ga Tech in the mid 80s, I think maybe chemistry. I remember thinking it was pretty neat, but that it was simplified and I wasn't learning that much from it.
I think this is because developers can see where software and AI is going, and what it can do. We see our human weaknesses, and can imagine what tools could do better.

We want to build tools that will help teachers do their best.

(Also sometimes you need to just burn down the establishment and start over because everything we know is wrong. )
As a dev I really like your website. Ultimate no bullshit product and I got all the information I need in a single page. Congrats.
Trump to Order New Restrictions on H-1B Visas by Monday
Another insane property is a type of blindsight in people who are cortically blind, i.e., their eyes are intact, but have damage to the visual cortex so they cannot form or process images.

However, parts of our visual system other than forming images are handled in other parts of the brain. For example, managing the tracking of objects by the eye - it's a completely separate group of control neurons (vs the visual cortex) that drives where the eye looks (and it's actually different for vertical vs horizontal tracking).

So, it turns out that if you present images with, say, vertical or horizontal stripes and ask a person with cortical blindness (developed after they could see) person which it is, they'll tell you of course that they can't see & don't know. However, make it a forced-choice question where they must guess one or the other, and they'll get a high percentage right, far greater than chance. The information is exfiltrating from the centers controlling the eye motion even though there is no cortex to form an image.
These types of problems, ones which can only know how to solve by solving them, are known as wicked problems. Software design is well known to be a wicked problem.
I'm familiar, but MTailor is a standalone brand. I'm dreaming of a world where I can see any piece/brand of clothing and not even think about the size or fit. It's just taken as a given that I can see it on myself (AR?) and get one that fits me perfectly. The clothing outlets, last stalwarts of strip malls, would be a thing of the past. No such thing as needing to "try it on" anymore.

Everyone has different fitting issues. My main one is waist length/width and shoulder width. I'm 6'2" and fit so the waist of most shirts barely go below the top of my jeans and getting the shoulders to fit often means having a parachute around my waist. It looks dumb and clothing fit is extremely important to overall appearance. There's a lot of disruption to be had in this space.

Edit: to be slightly more clear, I'm thinking of technology to replacing the incumbent infrastructure/processes/consumer experience, as opposed to just creating a new specialty brand.
Not 100% on this but I think I remember reading that they just look at the audio and then look at the video near the sharp peaks
