Uh. No, you must be misreading me. It's just "no". Let me simplify: I'm plainly stating that you are absolutely wrong, and while GPT-3 is a "will it work if we scale it up?" type of experiment, LHC totally isn't and even comparing these 2 things is silly.
People who can afford to homeschool tend to live in areas where the the local public school does not have diverse social backgrounds.
Ha, ha. Same here, after I retired from photography I sold my Nikon gear (I didn't own most of it anyway) and went for an Olympus, mostly for size (no mirrorles back then). Then I had all my gear stolen and seeing that Olympus was slow at developing pro bodies it promised I went for Pentax. At some point I will probably arrive full circle back at Nikon after Pentax gives up.

Pentax glass is really nice, I wasn't bothered about sigma. The more annoying thing is flash support always sucks for Pentax.

Ooh, that makes sense. This is also reminding me a bit of Concourse CI (https://concourse-ci.org) as that's all docker-based too, though last I checked it wasn't as kubernetes-native (which I appreciate)
About 0.7% of the American public dies each year:

https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/products/databriefs/db355.htm

An idea that sees its support changing substantially faster than 0.7% per year is not primarily driven by older members of the public dying.

The original Civil Rights movement, the fight for gay marriage, cannabis legalization -- all of these saw public acceptance shift much faster than population turnover can account for. Do you have examples in mind of trends that actually required the die-off of older people?
> I think it's great because you don't end up buying bodies that are compromised in stupid arbitrary ways just to fit neatly into their appointed place in the product lineup.

That's how all the Mirrorless manufacturers managed to survive early on IMO.

In the case of Sony, basically throwing you everything the hardware COULD do.

In the case of Panasonic, I think of the GX7 and how it didn't skimp on buttons (Something Sony is still guilty of.)
I was using the word "designed" metaphorically. Of course we were not actually designed. The point is that our fundamental nature is determined by evolution, and evolution only "cares" about reproductive fitness, so that's what we're "optimized" for. (I put these words in scare quotes because evolution doesn't actually "care" about anything, and it doesn't optimize, it merely satisfices.)
> I grew up homeschooled in NZ with a hilariously small amount of context for what the real world was like. In retrospect, it was totally ideal.

You missed the next sentence which seems to contradict the argument you're making. There's absolutely no evidence that the author is missing "critical thinking skills". It sounds like the positive reinforcement from the father created an idea that anything is possible (which probably is missing from most people who go through the traditional education system).

No one is arguing that all homeschooling is great. It's going to depend on the teachers/parents. This seems like an example where it worked out really well.

The Olympus camera business is not being shut down, only split into a separate company. So you still can get Olympus mFT gear and I can quite recommend it, it is wonderful, especially if you want to limit the amount of stuff to carry. An OMD E-M5 Mk3 with a 25/1.8 or the new 12-45 zoom is extremely capable but leightweight and compact at the same time.
Typically a homeschooling family (about 1% of households in the US) plan their lives around it, which makes it available to lower economic tiers within middle class, and occasionally lower class. It is not something that incidentally happens as income rises. A typical homeschool co-op will have a mix of blue-collar and white-collar careers among the parents who provide income.

Using code coverage data to speed up continuous integration and reduce costs
In this case, this video linked elsewhere in this thread described this happening here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zO5rXxJRmf4&t=5m48s

(I think this is meant to be an accurate simulation of the same type of aircraft under the same conditions.)

The current top comment in this thread also quotes the investigator report for this crash as saying

> According to the FDR and CVR recordings several warnings and alerts such as over-speed, landing gear not down and ground proximity alerts were disregarded.

So, yep. Although in the simulation, at least, this particular one is not a voice alert but is an annoying bell (with details of the reasons for the alert available elsewhere in the cockpit).

Here's an interesting subtlety of modern door handles. Next time you're in a high-rise building, check the door handles on the stairwells. You may find that the movement of the handle on one side of the door is mechanically uncorrelated with the movement of the door handle on the other side; yet other, identical-looking door handles in the same building may function normally.

I believe this is a safety feature to prevent doors from being jammed on the opposite side by putting e.g. a piece of furniture underneath the door handle. Someone had to actually think of this risk, and invent this special type of door handle - yet most people will never notice it.

That is asserted often but I doubt the truth. Argentinia constitutionally considers migration a human right. They are a minority and not the most prosperous example of a country but they certainly aren't exceptionally worse off even if they wound up with the awkward combination of an overrepresentation of both infamously Nazi refugees and lesser known refugees fleeing from the Nazis historically.

>In your black hole example, the light has a momentum, and that doesn't vanish if a black hole forms, the black hole will continue moving.

My mistake, it's a bit more complicated, what if you pointed two lasers at each other and created a pulse from each of such magnitude the when the light pulses pass by each other the Schwarzschild radius is passed? The blackhole is formed from the photons and nothing can escape the interior of the blackhole. Too much EM radiation can destroy separation and distance.

> • Provide $150 billion through the Green New Deal in infrastructure grants and technical assistance for municipalities and/or states to build publicly owned and democratically controlled, co-operative, or open access broadband networks.

Limit it to eminent domain on the poles for rural/suburban municipalities. Costly, but keeps the rent seekers off the physical medium. For populations over X density, use the money to drop fiber underground, again that the municipality owns.

Issue licenses to companies that want to play ball with the towns and cities, or give the people the option to have the town run it. Spectrum/poles/underground should be public resources. Fine and/or revoke licenses from companies that are running scams and failing to reach this commitment.

Yes there are torrents for libgen and scihub. They are not user friendly. One torrent contains hundreds of files without human identifiers. You need a copy of their database to know what the files are.
Internally, a lot of companies have a standard corporate damage-limiting process that actively deletes old email. You can't have subpoena'd data you really no longer possess. That's a (potentially significant) legal win.

OTOH, if you claim you've gotten rid of data to one party, and then another party is able to dig that same data up in a legal proceeding, I expect the first party might be upset, and seek compensation.

Quite apart from that, if you have metrics that show long tail data are infrequently accessed, but do take up an appreciable (and ever growing) amount of resources, it's a OpEx/engineering win to actually get rid of that on a proactive basis.

Anyone who would "cancel" you for that without asking you to consider updating your language is just counterproductive to our goals.

How often have you had a brush-up against something on the scale of life and death? It can be a crazy experience. People come up with all sorts of rationalizations or decisions about "what it meant to them", good adaptations and bad ones. Let them do it, perhaps with a little less judgement. Be humble instead. Nobody completely has it all figured out.
Could this also incorporate a library of common connector designs, to be included in the generated documents? Often it can be difficult to work out the numbering when they're very small on the real connectors.
Never used an Olympus, never understood the point of one.

I see a connection there :). The Olympus cameras are extremely capable, yet small in size. An E-M10 or E-M5 have a tiny body and there are extremely compact lenses to match them. Yet, despite the smaller sensor (compared to 35mm) you don't sacrifice much of image quality (or none at all for many tasks) due to the excellent lenses.

The article is wrong on so many levels. First, there is no such thing as "TDD developers" :D and yes, developers should write end-to-end tests. Also, developers should test code manually! at the time of writing to make sure they completed the job... Also knowing the product you are working on is a very sensible thing to do (although I hate doing it, because I find it boring), so developers should also do the kind of "exploratory testing" occasionally.

There are a lot of problems separating these roles (blame game, unnecessary work, conflicts, cost), when you bring those tasks closer to developers, there are no need for testers. They should develop software and write tests too!

Security? You are in big trouble when security is just an afterthought and only testers think about it... Security is a mindset, constant vigilance and learning. Sorry, but some process or tool won't solve that for you.

This is an article written by an angry user whose usecase isn't well supported.

Like, it's a valid gripe I guess, assuming you think music storage and streaming should be perpetually free even if you didn't buy any of it on the platform, but it just doesn't apply to 90% of the userbase - who do license their music through a monthly subscription rather than buying it outright.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not exactly excited about the shutdown of Google Music - but it's hard to take this author seriously.

This is definitely happening already, all the Mac App Store devs that left that store for their various reasons, some of them pushing updates only to their site forcing me to move away from the App Store, and therefore Apples guidelines making them behave properly. So this is happening and it is being abused, see Zoom using preinstall scripts. This wouldn’t have happened if the Mac App Store was the only way to install an app on a mac.
After the NXDomain redirection stuff, they invested a ton in doing DNS right, deploying DNSSEC and Anycast. They are a major participant in the IETF, DNS OARC, and many other industry working groups, if you attend these things, go talk to the Comcast folks!

Their limited use of HTTP interception is a published RFC, and I've thought about ways to get around this, and for the use cases they use it for, it seems like the only viable option.

I knew a few of folks who were involved in the BT RST thing, the whole org learned a lot from that, and internal opinions changed.

Came here to say the second part. I left a job because I hated TeamCity so much. It wasn't a super fun job but I'd have stayed for Jenkins.
Important to notice: Olympus is not shutting down the camera business, it is split off into a separate entity. While the furture of that needs to be determined, the camera business stays in full operation.
No. I put that in places where I receive a generator and want a list.

But, there are plenty of instances of what you're talking about. Take a look at the standard library. Itertools often creates an iterator as the first operation, not knowing whether it received an iterator or some other kind of iterable.

https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/384621c42f9102e31ba2c...

If you search for `list` in the CPython code, you'll find many examples of what you're asking about.

Similarly, Pandas often makes a copy of a Series or DataFrame. It might be inefficient, but it keeps the API (more) simple.

This is a tangent, but I immediately was reminded of 'speed-runners' in gaming. I know some people who either do this or are fans, and what fascinated me about the whole thing is that a big part of it is finding the 'unintentional' parts of the systems.

I've also known 'testers' and a guy who runs a company that offers this as a service.

The work involves is pretty similar, and I imagine a certain 'type' of person would thrive doing either of these jobs. But what I've noticed about speed-running is that while some doggedly keep at it with a single game, part of the fun seems to be to go from game to game. I imagine the type of person that would be a good tester would also benefit from being moved around from testing one thing to another.

On a multi-collaborator large system with half the behavior off in AWS?

You're either dreaming, or haven't worked on anything complex enough to see it yet. E2E means system test, whether or not you think it is, including back end. In almost any real software in 2020 that means multiple debuggers, monitors, logs, god knows what.

But if you're testing a monolith, sure. Your system is one unit, so unit test your monolith and enjoy your debugger.

If you're testing a monolith outside of something like embedded or basic app testing, quit, because the company you're working for built a monolith.

Inactionable doesn't mean "not possible", it means "more trouble than it's worth." That's why it's advisable to do E2E on P0 cases and not really advisable to do it for P3 cases. You can do tooling work to move the bar for how much trouble you have to put in, but "try harder" misses the point.

> If it can be established that the safe is yours and that you possess the key or know the combination, I believe a court can indeed order you to open it or to produce the contents, punishable by contempt of court.

I got curious about this, so I did some quick research. Again, IANAL, but my understanding is that, in the US, the court can order you to give up the physical key (if it is determined that you have it) but not the combination. The latter is protected by the Fifth Amendment right against self incrimination, in the same way as sharing knowledge verbally. So then the question becomes, is an encryption key (or passcode, etc) more like a physical key, or a combination? If the former, then you would be legally compelled to decrypt it if law enforcement asked you to do so. If the latter, however, then there is no legal way for law enforcement to force you to decrypt the device.

The legal framework for deciding how to handle encrypted data already exists, it's just ambiguous. Instead of passing a law that completely changes the scope and usefulness of encryption, doesn't it make much more sense to simply disambiguate and update existing laws accordingly? I don't know the full repercussions of that, but it seems that there exist less drastic solutions to the problem.

> I don't necessarily agree with that argument, but I don't think it's unreasonable.

I think it is unreasonable because it's asking companies to willfully violate their user's privacy and trust, and to severely undermine encryption as a whole. There is zero chance that this does not get abused.
> Couldn't these companies just sponsor the pilots to complete their pilot training program?

Well, that training costs close to $100,000, takes up to 2 years, the fake pilots would have to pass several written, practical and medical tests.

In Asian culture, staff only get promoted (one-way up) over time. So the concept of failing one of your pilots is a hard sell for local examiners - it would be scandalous behavior to flunk their sim ride.

The Disdyakis triacontahedron's faces are probably too long and skinny for most geospatial applications though.
