If you write a POSIX compliant shell script then that expresses its portability.

You can argue merits or demerits of POSIX as a system, but there needs to be some common base regardless, otherwise it's the wild west.

The entire argument is that this is actually not happening. The figures are just doctored instead. Not sure how you can just state the exact opposite to the articles argument without presenting any evidence that the author misses.
Group work has its advantages, but possibly my sample is biased in a different direction than yours - I've always found groups a terrible way to teach programming, at least to complete beginners. Once they have the basics, then group work starts to work a bit better.

Why would you expose your opinions to challenge if you know they are right?

Also why would you need to take any risks if you think you know everything already?

I don't think you know many arrogant people, I deal with people at my company that are both stubborn and usually wrong, which is a lethal combo. You have to workaround these people or else the project won't get done.

outline.com appears to be located in the USA. The decision to not show the content to European IPs will have been made inside that server, not "in Europe".

(I acknowledge it isn't doing that now, so please consider this a comment in a time-warp. The images are all failing with "Sorry, this content is not available in your region." however.)
How does anything you said contradict the claim that "[The CDC are]... estimating 0.3% [actually 0.26%] in the US"?

The commentator never claimed that it was an ironclad truth that could never change, just an estimate, which you confirm ("Scenario 5 represents a current best estimate...").

> The working model of management in at least certain high ranking UK universities is that it takes less time to run an online course

Sorry I cannot see management believing this at any universities. I think you are mistaken.

Universities are all certainly cutting staff, but this is the current decimation of students and the loss of money, causing this.

Separately, high ranking universities know in class teaching is critical for their survival, it's why they rank high. Without in class teaching they lower themselves to the level of the other universities, they would never move in this direction, especially falsely thinking it takes less staff.
The IP argument is intresting because I've seen at least one Russell Group uni write into its employment T&C that the university owns the IP for any videos produced, retains these rights if the lecturer leaves and is allowed to licence them to third parties.
Er, no. In English, it does not mean anything at all.

"Prime" is the analagous English word, I would think, and it is not a superlative. One would not say "that's prime" of something good, impressive, whatever.

"Prime" means: ready; in the thing's initial state; available for immediate use.

It also has a meaning in maths, but that's not really relevant.
Not my experience. I accidentally rammed my trailer hitch into my leg, which fortunately for my leg was protected by the iPhone 6 in my pocket.

The hitch put a huge dent in my phone, broke the accelerometer and a bunch of sensors, obvious case damage though it was still working (remarkably).

I walked into an Apple store and they replaced it on the spot, for free, despite it being out of warranty and obviously my fault.

Just got my MBP keyboard replaced yesterday for free too (admittedly it is a piece of crap keyboard :).

In Sweden none of the studies have shown immunity levels anywhere near that high, but ICU cases and deaths are trending down sharply, despite people getting tired of social distancing (BLM protests, high school graduation parties, midsummer parties all happened with no corresponding spikes) and having started traveling for vacation.

This is a strange virus, there is something else going on causing lower levels of immunity to have a stronger impact on cases than the naive math would suggest.

The author presents a model of learning where the teacher dominates the physical classroom (and, by implication, the students are submissive): he says this explicitly when talking about a "dominating professor".

Online learning doesn't allow for that in the same way, so a teacher dependent on this style of teaching is likely to experience significant discomfort.

Is this really a "Greatest Teaching Technique" though, as the headline suggests? I am highly doubtful. This is more about having control of a classroom, than enabling learning. I find it hard to call this a teaching technique at all.

If you say "Greatest Teaching Technique" to me, I immediately think of the Socratic method. With the understanding that it is more difficult to read body language and physical cues, that still works perfectly great over Zoom.
Mathematicians do not differ in the symbolic numerical distance and size effects
Not only that, Kant himself structured the idea of the world outside our field of experience in a critique of pure reason. Since then the idea that our experience is a perfect one and that all our ideas come from our experience has been questioned.

This is why when the interviewed said "We assume our perception is a perfect reflection of the physical world around us" it was really strange for me. Only those unaware of hundreds of years of advance in philosophy assume that. And this highlights possibly a field that is very much lacking in science, the critique of thought itself.
That's great! Thanks for taking the time to build it.

Show HN: DataGridXL, a performant and reliable vanilla JavaScript data grid
Hello Hacker News Community,

DataGridXL is a Vanilla Javascript editable data table with spreadsheet-like controls.

There are many data grids/tables out there that offer editable controls in one way or another, but I found most (or actually: all) of them lacking in performance (both scroll and edit performance). Most of them were lacking in reliability as well.

I spent two years working on the product and finally v1 is done. The grid has a store and state concept similar to React, and it is fully virtual, which means that it can display a grid with 10.000 rows without creating 10.000 DOM nodes.

Please let me know what you think!
How to Use Haro to Get Featured in Publications Like Forbes and Business Insider
Neal Stephenson's Seveneves has a part (part 3) of the book that is set in the distant future. One plot point there is some kind of advanced glider basically exploiting the atmosphere to pick up enough energy over the course of a day to eventually get enough mass (by picking up water) and energy to eventually travel at high speeds & altitudes half way across the planet. Science fiction of course but he has a way of making this somewhat plausible.

Gliders sometimes use water ballast to store more energy so they can stay up longer. Basically after getting towed to an initial altitude they use thermals and ridge soaring to gain altitude. After that it's all about converting altitude to speed and distance based on their glide ratio. Having a high mass apparently helps. Hopping from one lift producing area to another, you can cover great distances.

Currently this is pretty much a recreational activity because you are dependent on weather, sunlight, and other things that are hard to predict and detect. But kind of intriguing notion what you could do if you had a way to reliably find areas with good lift.

On a related note, here's a youtube channel of a glider pilot in Kansas that regularly posts awesome footage from his glider. Here's some awesome footage of him exploring some mountains and exploiting available lift from winds hitting the rocks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bcd5Z46RGRU

> constant money printing which is continuously devaluing currencies all around the world

Printing money does not mean currency devaluation. Keep in mind most of the so called "money" in the world is debt (and by most I mean almost all of it). It's created out of thin air.

I think a lot of people have just generally skewed ideas about how expensive things are because they live in expensive places. I live in Boston where everything is expensive and gentrifying, but it turns out the vast majority of the country is dealing with urban decay and their homes are too cheap to maintain their infrastructure, ect. All of the simple good are still ridiculously cheap. It's like $1.50 for a liter of milk still.
Again, author of the quote was talking specifically about the controller part. Car ECUs use off the shelf semiconductors. ECU module is usually mounted inside the cabin under the dash.
that's incorrect, you're allowed to also have access to evidence the prosecutor doesn't reference directly. For instance, if there is some evidence that someone else committed a crime such as existence of security footage or DNA evidence, they're required to produce it along with all the other evidence during discovery. Of course they might not use that conflicting evidence in court, but it was gathered and thus is legally obligated to be given to the defense.

Withholding evidence from the defense is very incompatible with our justice system.
I don't think the Socratic Method is universally applicable. I'm not sure how one would use it to effectively teach Spanish, or history, or geometry.

You get them as Web apps.

As for enterprise desktop UNIX, I bet Red-Hat has more enterprise integration points with IT infrastructure than OS X.
Nuclear energy has a very high energy density output, per square footage of the nuclear facility. The highest of all energy generation.

But, the cost appears to be very high. The nuclear reactor, is a very complex system of pipes and pumps, switches and relays, backup systems of backup systems, etc. It’s an incredibly complex way to produce electricity.

It moves around a lot of radioactive water, in its pipes. And then, it has a nasty waste byproduct, which will take 10,000 years to degrade before it becomes relatively safe. This is longer than recorded human civilization. And far longer than any continuous government has existed. And the container holding the waste might actually deteriorate before the waste becomes safe. Thus, the nuclear waste might end up leaking into the ground water, and now poisoning your water supply.

Whereas hydro is relatively safe. You’re just using gravity to spin the generator. Funnel the water rolling down a mountain, and let gravity do its thing. Easy. And no radioactive mess to deal with afterwards.

You can even float some solar panels on top of your dam reservoir, to generate more energy.

The dam will require maintenance of course. You have to clear the silt every few years. And then, you have to upgrade the concrete once every century or so. But, this is probably far easier, than dealing with radioactive waste.
What's unclear to you? How I read it is that the established way to measure poverty is largely just a way to justify and paint a rosy picture of the status quo, not based on actual on-the-ground facts of what number that actually lifts someone out of poverty.
I was going to say. The biggest cost for most organizations is the recruitment and training costs of an employee that leaves due to demotivation stemming from having to do "robotic" tasks.
Sounds like you have Japan-made Squier. I haven't seen one in person, but they do have a good reputation and probably cost now more than when they were new. The current cheapest Squiers are completely different guitars, and apparently even these have good and bad ones and I one of the worst. There are people who claim that you can get a good guitar if you buy a pile of Harley Bentons or Squiers, keep the best one and return the rest. My Epiphone was apparently a customer return.
Elttam are a security firm who offer (among other things) pentesting - so they would usually be working privately with, say, a client's website.

But then "Gay" just meant happy. And "retard" means slightly slowed down (development). Those were probably all decent words from the start.

The words aren't the problem, their usages are. I'm not convinced that we should allow the meaning of words to slip and replace them when they become offensive.

"the usage, though non-standard, is ubiquitous, and in fact has been around for over seven hundred years. Robert Burchfield, in his third edition of Fowler, writes that in the 17th and 18th centuries the two words’ alternation was not considered a mistake, even in literary text, but that nowadays it’s either taken as ‘evidence of imperfect education’ or ‘accepted in regional speech as being a deep-rooted survival from an earlier period’."
