You are correct, the Bohr model has been obsolete for almost a century. It continues to get trotted out because the more accurate model is quite unapproachable without a lot of math and study.

When someone says "revolves around something" they are mentally projecting a whole sequences of measurements of the electron's position, one after another, that trace out a path. We are evolved to regard the path as a natural thing as opposed to focusing on the measurements.

But we can't do that for electrons orbiting an atom, since measuring them involves wacking them with photons or something that bounce off in some direction so we can see that deflection. So all we get to talk about is the result of a measurement.

When someone says "it's in this orbital," that's a statement about the values of energy and angular momentum a measurement will produce. What measurements actually produce those? Ones that involve absorbing or emitting photons, mostly, and we measure those by the energy of the photon absorbed or emitted, and those don't give us information about the position of the electron. You may think that we could put an electron into a very high orbit and then try to triangulate where it was when it emitted the photon based on the angle...but then you have to know where the atom is precisely, which means another measurement, which means some unknown momentum imparted, which means the energy spectrum of the photon we're trying to measure gets smeared...

Meanwhile, if we measure position precisely, then we impart some new momentum vector to the electron. What the momentum vector would have been measured to be before that wasn't known, and so we have no idea how we have kicked it and the orbital (energy and angular momentum) can have various values if we measure them afterwards even if they would have always had a single value beforehand.

"speak out and shit all over the government" for what? Remember, democracy is for checking the power of the powerful, protect the weak, and enlighten the mass.

I see neither US nor China achieve that in their government. And in terms of protecting the weak, China probably did a better job.

This is well written. I never gave much thought to the resource usage during the period between SYN and accept. This article explained it very nicely. Also, now I’m curious why don’t these Linux limits don’t scale with the amount of RAM available? Like, yes on a low resource machine you wouldn’t want more than the default 128 for the backlog. But if I have 512GB of RAM then why not give me a backlog of a few thousand?

That’s not the primary reason. They selfishly wanted to protect mask supplies for medical use and so spread FUD around public mask usage. It was criminal and people should be held accountable. Masks work for some value and whatever that value is, it accumulates as more people wear masks, and the idiots in charge gave up months of that reduction so that people wouldn’t buy up all the masks at Home Depot. Only they still bought all the masks, and then used the CDC’s own FUD as their own to not wear them and convince everyone else not to wear them.
"And, by the way, there is plenty of toilet paper." I bet that would have stopped the panic buying, too.

I find this misguided: Indeed mathematics and the scientific
method are _the only_ tools that can help us find the truth
about social problems.

I love "analysis of evidence and data" as much as the next guy, and quite possibly more.

That's why I am extremely wary of lending too much credence to data when it comes to something as messy as a society of human beings.

What's one of the very first things we learn when we learn about "the scientific method" as schoolkids? For an experiment to be valid, we need control samples. This can rarely, if ever, be practically or ethically achieved with human beings. There are, to put it mildly, an overwhelming number of confounding variables at play in any statistical study of human beings.

That doesn't mean data is useless when it comes to social sciences, but it is rarely if ever sufficient. (This is also resoundingly true for "lived experience", of course)

Eggs come in different sizes. There can be 100% size differences depending on the type of bird. Typical variation is usually a lot lower.

Yes, even from what you might call an ordinary chicken.

I know this because I have chickens. One hen lays eggs 50% bigger than the others. Another frequently does double yolks. This is far from uncommon.
I watched the famous movie 12 Angry Men for the first time recently (I think it holds up well today, BTW).

This is much like the disapproving glare mentioned, but what's the online equivalent?

I play a few online games but not much multiplayer. Public voice chat made it a much less enjoyable experience. You can mute people of course. But as far as I know, they don't get told. What if each time it happened it popped up a message "4 people have muted you today", "3 out of 8 teammates have muted you"? It could be a useful feedback mechanism.

I know I'm not a troll, so obviously if someone downvotes me it's because they disagree and therefore unfair. But maybe not from their perspective.

You can also downvote and reply; I don't know how common that is. But given the number of people who say they don't know why they are downvoted, it seems to me like a reasonable thing to do.

Watch the full video. CO2 is addressed.

Passing out when you hyperventilate is from too little CO2 rather than “retention.“ The opposite of what is being claimed masks cause.

If you are an average CRUD developer in most major cities in the US - Excluding the west coast and NYC, you can easily be making $130K before you’re 30. That puts you right at a household salary that’s at the 80th percentile.

Within two years of working at Big Tech, you could be clearing $200K and that puts you at the 90th percentile.

HN users love to talk about income inequality. But to many people in the US, the salary of your average software developer, let alone a software developer working for $BigTech is just as unattainable as most of us earning $100 million.
Recently I read a post about education that was quite resonating. Universities have historically been "hard to enter, but easy to exit", meaning it's really difficult to get in but about the only thing that matter is getting in and no one really cares what your grades are if you are from Stanford/Harvard et.al.

On the flip side, med school or west point are less about getting in but more about exit value. It's not really that important as to whether you got in but whether you graduated from West Point. West Point / Navy Seals can essentially double the class size without losing any credibility. I think higher education is going in similar direction.

>You routinely forgive passionate and edgy behavior by people who agree with you

Yes, I am guilty of this at times. I would hope and expect to be called out for it in such spaces.

>I argue you're assessment of "communication and building bridges" and and "bashing rather than having a conversation" are fundamentally subjective

No, I disagree. If someone comes into a discussion space and dismisses someone else's points by simply calling them a (libtard|fascist|fraud), that's just a textbook ad hominem attack. This is objectively decidable - the person is not engaging with the contents of the other person's view, but is rather attacking the speaker themselves.

This is one example, but there are others: threats and other forms of verbal abuse, for example. They're pretty evident to anyone who's not emotionally involved in the conversation. I would like to keep all of this behavior out of such spaces, and I think it's possible to build a culture that discourages it.

I would ask you this: what's the alternative? Simply accept the vitriol between opposing sides of our political arguments and give up on any hope of connecting with people with significantly differing views? (In the US) we have a two-party political system, should we just accept the endless back-and-forth power struggle between the two sides? We all have a vote, and if we can't reach across the aisle to those we disagree with, how can we ever hope to make progress?

It's important to remember that corporations don't have motivations, only the people in them do. In a corporation like this you could have one person who really cares about racism, one who doesn't but thinks this is good PR, another who doesn't but thinks it's a good excuse to collect the data so they can do other things with it and so on. In a company that size it's indeed likely that people with all of those motivations exist within the company.

And someone may rightly want to call out the people who are only doing it for the PR or the data collection, but we don't have visibility inside the company to know who they are in particular, so the blame goes to the abstraction of the corporation itself. Which it deserves if it hired those people even if it also hired some separate people with better motivations, because those people are still then going to capitalize on racism by marketing their claimed virtue to customers, or do bad things with the data.
When does a dental issue become a medical one?
If dental issues are not taken care on time, they can become medical health issues. It can be seen when you don’t give proper attention to your dental health, issues like cavities, decay, gum bleeding etc. are more likely happen. This will result in other serious problems which will need medical attention. So, take care of your dental health if you don’t want it to become a medical issue!

I feel I'm too wordy to begin with; it's always a challenge deciding what to leave out for the sake of (some semblance of) brevity.

There are certainly situations where it might make sense to kill a small number of people for some greater good. The "Trolley problem," and all that.

The situation I meant to describe in my post is one where your friend has no remotely defensible or rational reason for their desire to murder ten people. Surely we can imagine many such scenarios.

I think maybe the difference is that a digital space allows you to not focus on the number of people you're addressing, so people act more like they are having a conversation with a representative member of their audience.

I don't think it's fundamentally about the digital aspect so much as writing vs. speaking.

There could certainly be many scenarios where killing somebody might make ethical sense - self defense, the "Trolley problem", etc.

Google by definition wants to cover-up the domain name that serves amp web pages. Over half of the article discusses that.

For your question about fastly, I already answered that in the comment you replied. The fastly CDN requires that the DNS is configured to point at fastly servers. Take a look at https://docs.fastly.com/en/guides/sign-up-and-create-your-fi... under "Start serving traffic through Fastly".

Once you’re ready, all you need to do to complete your service
setup and start serving traffic through Fastly is set your domain's
CNAME DNS record to point to Fastly. For more information, see
the instructions in our Adding CNAME records guide."

A CNAME record is a dns mechanism that aliases an alternate domain for a canonical domain.

It's wrong to trust the URL bar. For example, this search [1] has as top link an ad that boasts "google.com", and it really is! And if you click on it, you'll end up on a google.com site, which nominally helps with printers, but in reality it's a tech support scam.

So much of the distrust here is that google wants to be everything: to host their content and publisher content and user content; to broker ads and recommend links; to run their software on your computer and phone, to store your data on their servers. They serve too many masters.

Yeah I do the same. I also put "large egg" on those recipes. Sometimes it matters. Proportions of egg to flour can be significant for some recipes.
The original is badly damaged, and then damaged more by over-cleaning, one of the misplaced enthusiasms of our age.

By stripping away everything but the original paint (of which often not much is left), irreplaceable information is lost, because the retouchers had often seen the original or more of it, and restored detail that had been damaged.

What remains after these extreme cleanings is too often little more than the underpainting and initial sketch. It's a great loss and a great pity.

I lived in Africa and the only internet I had was cellular and by the gb. Amp is a massive improvement over the extremely large web pages we now have to endure.

It's also much faster to render, which makes a huge difference on the crappy Android phones that are everywhere. Hell, I'm using a $200 Android phone right now because my iPhone broke and browsing the web is painful on it. And with the terrible hauwei $40 phones that have taken over Africa, most of the web is unusable.

I don't like Google's control of Amp, but it exists because of the original sin of html and js. Everything about html is terrible: bloated, pointlessly verbose, etc.

I have a dream that we all just start using Gopher and dump the www, but it's never going to happen. Maybe even browser vendors could get to together and design a super light weight markup based on S-exps or something, but that's probably not going to happen either. Amp is the best we got and it solves a real problem. And it solves the problem well.
