"why we think there aren't substantial sex differences that make the sexes on average more suited to different things"

I don't know any sane person who thinks that.

Feminism was about that woman have the right to choose a role, that was traditionally reserved for men (and the other way around).

That women does not get discriminated for being women.

The fight against the idea, that women are made for household and kitchen (and bed).

But yes, that originate idea got forgotten quite a bit, to the point where women get he idea hat it is wrong for a woman to be at home and take care of the kids and not pursue a carieer.

I don't like to involve cloud apps in my workflow because there is no guarantee when what will change and then break my workflow. I currently self host a simple note server[1]. Now cloud apps can help me sync these notes across my devices but I would rather prefer mapped drive than cloud sync.

I take notes from my mobile/desktop browser address bar or simply edit the files directly. No dependencies, no cloud storage, only files and no one can ever access them but me. Works like a charm for me.

So, it seems to come from nuclear fission, likely of civilian origin, and perhaps originating from fuel elements:

> The Netherland's public health agency said Friday it analysis of Nordic data showed that radionuclides had come "from the direction of Western Russia," indicating "damage to a fuel element in a nuclear power plant."

> On Friday, the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO) tweeted that its sensors had detected "harmless" isotopes, identified as Caesium 137, Caesium 134, and Ruthenium 103, "very much probably of civilian origin."
>
> According to the UN's International Atomic Energy Agency based in Vienna, Western Europe has 108 reactors and Central and Eastern Europe 73 reactors.

https://www.dw.com/en/slight-radioactivity-rise-in-nordic-co...

The presence uf Ruthenium-103 indicates that these are fresh fission products because it has a half-life of only 39 days (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_ruthenium).

So, it is not impossible that it is a leak in a civil reactor.
My experience is that normal SanDisc SD cards are the best. Other brands are unusable because of latency of write/read time! You need to power them when you buy them though, otherwise they actually break sometimes, and I don't mean data loss; I mean break!

This means you should try to buy them as fresh as possible and since sellers don't show production dates that means you have to wait for new models to come out and buy them then.

To me the most important metric is not speed of bandwidth but speed of time and stability! Does anyone have measures of how the SSD compares to SD card in terms of write/read latency?

I have only had problems with USB <-> SATA, the stability of USB3 drivers is a joke!
It makes me sad every time I see a rewrite from scratch of a working, optimized and well tested library for the sake of writing it in a newer/trendy language...

In my opinion this is much worse than reinventing the wheel.

Especially when the result is, in the end, slower.
Also the elasticity and backing by a company that had seen the scale themselves, and can possible deliver for you. I remember being a then startup and boxes costing more than 2x the money we were somehow attracted to it and kept it as the option we would move if we ever had a revenue.. Large companies probably spent more than their AWS bills on software license fees (Oracle/ERP/SAP etc) and employee salaries so they don't care.
Hi! Foam author here. We generate markdown references to bridge [[wiki-link]]s to work with Markdown tools. For the time being this is optimised for a) the editing experience in VS Code and b) the GitHub pages publishing pipeline, so it's more convenient to generate markdown links without the `.md` suffix.

See bottom of the file here for example: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/foambubble/foam/master/rea...

This means that for the time being links are broken in the GitHub markdown preview.

I'll look into getting this fixed, but not sure what the best way forward is.
Things can have a lot of relationships - databases for instance, it's good to have something remember it for you, and to show other people.

I'm wondering always about the name "dark matter". It makes a good topic for all kinds of pseudo-science and scifi. The name implies something mystical and invites everyone to discuss a topic that no-one understands.

If the name was something else like "Rubin's matter" or "Unknown matter", maybe it wouldn't invite so much unscientific discussion and speculation.

I don't feel that everyone has an opinion about higgs boson, but you can start a discussion about dark matter with anyone. I'm not any kind of expert about the topic either, but could certainly start speculating about it with other laymen.
In Emvi [1] we built it so that you can mention an article (and everything else) anywhere and the title will get updated when the linked article is. In case you delete it there is a hint that it has been deleted.

I generally like to annotate or mark stuff instead of sorting them into folders to search through them later. It's by far easier to remember _what_ you're looking for than _where_ you can find it. If you're trying to find a place you have been to before, it's easier to remember a land mark next to it than the streets you have to drive down.

Yes, I actually already went on linkedIn and checked to see how many people from my school got jobs at FAANG companies (including Intel). There were very few, and most of them have non-engineering related bachelor's degrees. Only one of them was an engineer at google.

When you look at Georgia Tech graduates on linkedIn, the opposite is true. Hence, me making this thread.

Don't get me wrong though, my school does seem to be pretty decent at getting people local jobs. But that wasn't really my goal personally. I want to escape my home town.
Yup, This is some high quality jugaad. ;)
Databases operate at a much lower semantic level though, so it's not a good analogy IMO.
I find that using an easy toggle switch for JS on a per-site basis can do the job pretty well.

One important thing to note is that all your examples of custom text are non-rich editors. Text editing becomes astonishingly more difficult if proper rich text and i18n is required. Then, Core Text / TextKit is a pretty good solution because anything else quickly requires years of work. The best alternative I know of is using a Javascript-based editor in a WebView - or jumping to something like Qt.

What is the benefit of this over WebSockets? More generally, what is it even, and what problems does it solve?
Machine learning is not a brand new field. The name was first used in 1959 by Arthur Samuel. The first "artificial neuron", the Pitts & McCulloch neuron, was described in 1938. Rosenblat described the Perceptron in 1958. Backpropagation was first propsed to train neural networks by Werbos in 1976 and then again in 1986 by Rumelhart, Hinton and Williams. Even "modern" deep learning architectures like LSTMs and CNNs are already more than 20 years old. LSTMs were first described by Hochreiter and Schmidhuber in 1997. The Neocognitron was described by Fukushima in 1980. And so on.

Machine learning did not start in 2012.

Because you want garbage collection to happen at specific, well-defined times (i.e. in the slack between frames), in a separate thread - not in the middle of rendering a frame on the main thread when you happen to drop something out of scope.
Can you elaborate? volatile and threading in C++ are orthogonal to each other. I don't understand why you consider a C# volatile discussion relevant when talking about C++ race conditions.
> Webtransport is designed as a 'QUIC-native' client-server communication protocol to replace websockets.

Is there anything wrong with websockets? I thought websockets were cool.
I find a more extreme version of this thinking in anti-science subjects like flat earth and homeopathy.

Those guys are always referencing ancient texts.

Many parts of humanity stagnated for millennia - see cave systems in France and Eastern Europe which were occupied for thousands of years without any progress.

I find it incredible that you could take a baby from that era, send them to school and they could be indiscernible from the rest of us.

> That sounds like you need better software then :)

No, it rather sounds like you have a hammer called WebRTC and you're attempting to use it on a nail called "bidirectional server/client communication".

Why deal with the complex protocol stack of WebRTC which solves, among other things, NAT traversal, mutual authentication and encryption independently of server certificates, multiplexing of data and A/V content on a single port and much more. And I say that as someone who absolutely loves WebRTC for A/V and secure P2P use cases.

There is a true gap of "UDP for the web", which this fills.

"WebSockets over UDP" don't need to be built on QUIC, but I'm assuming by the time you have added all the security features needed to make this as secure as WebSockets for web apps, you'll effectively end up with something equivalent.

Websockets work on HTTP/1.1 (not later versions) and turns the TCP connection into a packet-based transport, unrelated to HTTP.

WebTransport works on HTTP/3 and exposes a part of the underlying UDP QUIC connection (while still allowing HTTP/3 messages to travel across the same underlying connection), allowing for stream-based or packet-based subconnections, reliable or unreliable. Basically, it’s a lot more flexible and doesn’t require setting up an entire new connection to work.

What, exactly, is the prediction of dark matter, compared to MOND (or related theories)?

As a layman it seems like:

1. Dark matter is not universal (i.e. it is a "random" property of space)
2. Dark matter interacts with itself (and other matter) via gravity.

Is that all there is? I mean in such a case it seems to be no wonder that it fits the observations better, as DM theory is by far less constrained then MOND.
> "boil and bite" type mouthguards on Amazon

These can work but feel pretty horrible to sleep with. If you can afford it, your dentist can make you a slim fit top guard that is far more comfortable. I wear one and it's 100% fixed my jaw tension and tooth grind damage problems.

There is also a new type of fitted double guard which holds your jaw slightly open to alleviate apnea. They're expensive but depending on your country's healthcare you may get a rebate if prescribed one after a sleep study.

If your finances/healthcare don't permit the above, I recommend trimming down the boil and bite guard with scissors, you don't need most of that plastic. It will still suck compared a proper dental guard.
I hate to admit it but the nginx server infact is a SPOF.

Three ways to visualise a complex system
Chomsky argued that it was literally impossible for a statistical model to learn language, so to the extent it's possible, it refutes Chomsky's argument.

We won't know how humans learn language until we understand how humans learn language, but the fact that a crude general-purpose model like ANN works as well as it does is certainly evidence that humans can learn language statistically. We don't know for sure, but we rarely do.
Over the past three weeks, it happened at least 3 or 4 times that all our employees on Virgin Media in London would loose access to the internet for at least half a day. That’s easily about 10-20 people all around London so you would expect them to be somehow separated in sub networks.

I would have expected an article like this to discuss the different CPUfreq scaling governors, especially since it recommends switching to acpi_cpufreq, which allows them to be adjusted more freely than intel_pstate. I have doubts about switching to acpi_cpufreq though, especially when you're going to use it with ondemand.

But either way the author never actually measures battery life, so its impossible to tell if any of the things mentioned had any impact at all (a screenshot doesn't tell anything about the actual battery life).
Hello, author here.

I totally agree on Lambda first. The only reason we did not do that is because when we started this product I was not well versed with Lambda and serverless and preferred to work with something that I dealt with previously.

If I could go back in time, I would set up all our applications on serverless.
It can work - compare Mastodon to Gab or Parler, for example.
They actually _are_ changing things like the renderer, hence their need to take a long time for migrations. Basic gameplay code is written with blueprints, base classes are in C++ but do not replace the core code.
If solutions like this get traction then sites simply won't render anything client side before the paywall.

Developing sophisticated blocking tools only makes this distopian future arriving sooner.

Most news sites (WSJ appears to be one based on the single article I just checked) will serve full article content to archive.is / web.archive.org.
It uses HTTP/1.1 so it goes through all firewalls and the server implementation is simple enough for it to be rock solid and it scales with "joint parallelism" which only Java can do because of the complex memory-model and VM.

Rupy is a complete beast in terms of multi-core power, as long as the selector thread is not saturated it can scale linearly on all cores on shared memory = no memory copying or locks like all other solutions!

But the real upside is you get one process for async. HTTP (client and server), including database; which means you can use micro services the way they should be used by hosting all services on all machines and call them locally = more robust and less complex (no discovery after the initial client -> server DNS) completely without IO-wait!

WebSockets are completely over-engineered, as is HTTP/2 and 3...

So to answer your question: rupy is the final solution to internet servers. ;)

I’ve got a crazy method of bypassing paywalls - pay for content. I would much rather have a simple transaction where I give companies money and they give me stuff than deal with obtrusive ads - especially on mobile.

But I also realize journalists have to eat to.
There seems to be a nigh-irresistible urge for people, when explaining type systems, to pick examples that are absolutely useless.

None of the types in the theme here make much sense. They are arbitrary. The contribution to writing a robust program is questionable and they don't do much to explain concepts.

May as well stick with classic "Goats are mammals; that should be enough to get you going with OOP" examples, at least they are less distracting.

I'm not a fan of this article.
This is absolutely not true where I come from. I don't think you should consider your personal beliefs and biases to be universal to the whole planet.

Actually yes, when it was quite an issue I made sure I sleep on a high pillow. Just by mechanics it's more difficult to chew on your teeth. Also back then I only slept on either multiple pillows or thick pillows that are meant for sofas to have the head higher, just by mechanics it's more difficult to chew. Also I started the habit to eat chewing gum regularly, it makes the jaw muscles more tired at night. And, holding your head up high during the day helps. Especially when sitting on the computer, I highly recommend using an external screen, so your head is straight.

That in combination was already a game changer.

Also I started the habit to do light sports at least once a week, although that was mostly because of back pain. The bruxism practically vanished after I went to the psychologist to treat my anxiety. It was a treatment without pills, just talking and learning new methods. In my case it was a Systemic Therapy (I think combined with CBT - though I'm not sure) but YMMV and I think you need to choose someone you're comfortable with. For me the priority was to pick someone that I'm comfortable with, that seems to be specialized in what I think might be the overall issue and that seems to adhere to modern methods. Whenever I feel tense when going to sleep, I do Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) which was a recommendation from the Psychologist. There are audios on the internet which guide you through this, takes 10-15 minutes but now I just do it myself in 2 minutes. It's kind of a non-issue for me now, I cannot remember the last time I woke up with my teeth hurting because of that, the last series must have been years ago.

You pay them monthly instead of hourly, also you have to manage them yourself.
Great response. We’re all obsessed with infrastructure and over-engineering, myself included. Startups like to think they’re working on the next big thing, so they want to use the tech that the big boys use and bask in their anticipation of scale. You can easily save cost and time to validate your business with smaller hosting approaches, though it does look amateur from the outside. It’s not amateur, it’s smart.
> A function that is called once will always be inlined.

That is objectively false. Even though I agree with the spirit. For starters, unoptimized builds won't have that. Second, exceptions tend to inhibit inlining. Compare https://godbolt.org/z/c8Jayf with https://godbolt.org/z/Uoo2YA. Third, it's easy enough to push one of the heuristics used for inlining high enough in the wrong direction (e.g. function size). I recommend the clang optimizer view on godbolt.

Also note that it can be hard for a compiler to prove that a function is not used outside the current translation unit (although anonymous namespaces help with that). Number of calls is only one of the heuristics for inlining though anyway.
What complexity do you think this engine adds?

It isn't forcing you to do any extra work, it just saves you from having to worry about setting up a canvas, listening for input, or running a timer. That's literally all it does. And it gives you a neat aesthetic with the grid of dots.
FWIW a hierarchy of notes can only reflect one dimension. But notes typically have multiple dimensions associated with them, and there is (in reality) no canonical hierarchy. Which means you will regularly end up in arguments with yourself about where in the hierarchy to put the note, unless your hierarchy is of a exceedingly simple kind, and serves but one single purpose.

In fact, insisting to placing notes in a single hierarchy only serves to support a common but incorrect notion IMO: that things have but one single, universally valid, most important attribute. Of course no one will seriously argue that this is the case, but the notion is nonetheless ubiquitous because of our need to simplify, probably.
Does Rust still uses LLVM? If so, I'd tend to expect a result similar to Clang.
