In addition to reading books, I would recommend buying a laser distance sensor (I like the first generation Zamo) to explore dimensions in spaces around you, and reading other people's construction and design documentation, generally available through your local government. This shows what details are typically used in your local area, where they are used, and also provides architects comments as to what purpose they serve with respect to the local environment and seasons.

There's a section on typical days that really helped us orient our days. We also found that by following this schedule our baby started sleeping from 9:00 pm - 5:00 am at around 7 weeks. And by 12 weeks the baby was sleeping from 7:30 - 6:30. Other friends have seen similar sleep patterns.

Whoa, I just asked in in Portuguese about Italian numerals and it replied correctly (in Portuguese):

> Q: Em italiano, qual o número que segue o sei?

> A: O número que segue o sei é sette.

That is "In Italian, what's the number that follows sei?" — "The number that follows sei is sette."

Alright, well I'm avoiding twitter as hard as I can so I guess any day now the President will stop affecting public discourse via Twitter.
How many things have been aberrant and denounced, only to become the regrettable norm in the last few years?

When I was a child, the US wouldn't open admit to torture. It didn't have publicly known programs to ship prisoners to other jurisdictions so the U.S. rules of conduct could be bypassed. It didn't have a (publicly known) prison filled with non-U.S. people that were denied a civil trial. It didn't have a president that actively preached for or against public companies outside of criminal matters. When I was a child, a president openly violating ethics concerns WAS a matter of that president getting removed - with such certainty they'd step down to avoid the inevitable result.

I'm totally willing to believe that an aberrant behavior doesn't have to become the norm, but I won't believe that should be expected. I've been told all my life to expect that dramatic reactions and concerns are overstated and not the case, that we should all be calm and expect things to work out well, but if I look at the actual events of my life, I see the opposite lessons being taught: Unless we react strongly, clearly, and persistently, progress will not happen and things will slide for the worse.

It's not the lesson I want to learn, it's not a lesson I am comfortable with, but it does appear to be what I've seen in the last few decades.
I didn't watch more than a few minutes, too much real research going on to keep up with the more fringe stuff.

But tl;dr it could be a lab escape but most virologists think it's more likely to be spontaneous zoonosis. In either case, the evidence for genetic modification or "serial passage" is very weak and the virus's distinguishing traits all fit in well with the background distribution of coronaviruses we know about. So the fixation on lab escape seems like a distraction.
Streamlit is a great library, especially for creating full, standalone dashboards. Here's where I think Gradio's focus is different:

- Our UI components are optimized for machine learning models. For example, we make it super easy for you to put in a drag-and-drop image upload for your image classification model, and we'll handle the preprocessing to convert the input image to a numpy array of specified shape & the postprocessing to convert the confidences to nice graphical labels. We're trying to eliminate boilerplate preprocessing & postprocessing as much as possible. Just specify the UI components that make sense for your model in 1 line of code, and then launch() to create the interface!

- We are designing our UI components so that you can get more insight into how your model is performing. For example, here we obscure / crop different parts of an image to explore what in the image might be causing the model to predict a cheetah: https://i.imgur.com/t0Inliy.mp4 We are planning on releasing a lot more features specifically focused on model testing & validation, and would love to hear from you if that sounds useful

- Gradio integrates seamlessly with jupyter / colab notebooks, so you can use your existing workflow (I don't believe that's true for streamlit)
You’re not profitable enough. You’re insisting on finding the thing you want, instead of settling for what Google is pushing today.

After reconsidering my statement, I think you may be correct. Slavery can be capitalistic if you only include the buyers and sellers as members of the market.

"Slavery is capitalism" is most certainly wrong though.

"Capitalism encourages slavery in plantation economies" would be a better argument, but might also be refuted given the gradual abolishing of slavery despite the continuance of capitalism.
The first action of federal troops after the Revolutionary War ended was to suppress a regional rebellion of people who refused to pay their taxes. c.f. "The Whiskey Rebellion.".

> So long as there is transparency and due process of law.

That's a key point, and my concern is that some reports suggest that some of the arrests are being made in a manner that's "off the record", no paperwork done, officially never happened. If that's true, then there's no transparency, no due process, no accountability.

This is the kind of pathological “growth mindset” that brought our social media troubles upon us.
"Startup" means many things to many people, but most people most of the time use it to mean something close to a rapid-growth business (millions in revenue in < 3yr from start, growth measured in integer multiples per year from there), commonly targeting revenues such that (anecdotally) maxing out in the low $millions means the startup will likely fail for financial reasons. Creating a business that can do this frequently means taking outside investment from speculative investors (VC, angel) in numbers ranging from the low six figures for young, unproven startups, to tens of millions of dollars for established startups with obvious room to grow. You spend that money doubling your headcount every year and possibly doing things like subsidizing freemium users.

Crucially, the startup might not be like a business in some important regards. It's common to operate a startup at a significant financial loss, with the goal of either being bought out or growing fast enough to "make it up in volume" before the VC money runs out.

(sidenote: the word "startup" is also coming to sometimes be used to mean a self-funded tech-oriented business, without VC backing, with a slower expected growth rate but an expectation of maxing out at significant revenues).

All of this is in contrast to "small businesses", which have relatively modest growth prospects (sub-$1m is very common), frequently keep a headcount low enough to gather all employees in a small room, and are designed with prompt profitability in mind from the start, due to taking little/no outside investment.

Startups, both by their mode of operation and their level of ambition, rapidly grow to hundreds or thousands of employees, and demand immense revenue/funding to cover that. Small businesses are designed to get off the ground efficiently and more or less coast, sometimes with limited growth over time, sometimes keeping a steadystate.
It is so bad now days that I don't trust builders, My house was destroyed by Hurricane Irma, pretty much had to tear it down to the studs. I have spent three years this September doing it myself but it is done right. spray foam, not a single piece of drywall, waterproofing everything, no building materials that can mildew and grow mold, impact windows and doors. The problem is the incentives and the incentives are to get the job done as quickly as possible. I actually hire my own help for the big projects and honestly it's easier to find a handyman who has a passion for building things right than it is to find a contractor that will do it right.

Last year my wife and I bought out first house. Given our budget, we had the option of either buying a new big McMansion type home further out from the city, or buying a smaller older home closer to the city. We wound up buying a smaller house built in the 1940s and gutting/renovating/modernizing the interior, and on a whole I'm really happy with the result.

The house itself feels like when it was originally built, more careful thought was put into where windows are, how rooms are lit, how rooms are ventilated, how spaces flow into each other, and so on and so forth. After our renovation work, we now also have all of the modern niceties like ethernet running through all of the walls and a shiny kitchen and shiny bathrooms and modern hardwood flooring and whatnot. Every part of the house now feels like it's the way it is specifically because we wanted it to be that way, and relatively speaking, it cost less than it would have to get a new cookie-cutter McMansion type monstrosity around here. As a bonus, the neighborhood feels cozier and friendlier and less empty compared to newer cookie-cutter type development tracts too.

The only downside is that the square footage is considerably smaller, but I have no idea what people are supposed to do with all of the empty space in a giant house anyway. Oh, I guess another minor downside was discovering that no two doors in the entire house are exactly the same size, so we wound up having to get custom doors made.

Of course, your mileage will vary depending on where you are, budget, contractors, etc; we lucked out and managed to find contractors that cared about their craft and put a lot of thought into things.

I wouldn't say that the existence of the normal distribution is necessarily the reason that we place significance on the mean and variance. The mean is incredibly natural to define when you move to measure theoretic probability (simply the integral of a function, i.e. a random variable, with respect to some measure). When you take this point of view, random variables with particular moments existing are simply functions in L^p. Further, when you move on to proving the CLT the moments give you properties of the characteristic functions that allow you to prove the CLT. These are all deep connections.

There's another interpretation of the mean (and conditional expectation) as quantities minimizing squared error. It's not surprising that squared error and variance are so similar and that these are connected.

>It's possible to use pressure-treated lumber to support an aluminum deck, although, of course, it is a toxic material.

I don't think pressure treated lumber involves arsenic anymore. It used to, but due to lawsuits and the EPA threatening to crack down on it, the industry moved away from it.

Really? I saw it covered relentlessly until it was shut down.

That is not what is being contested.

They put him in an unmarked van and drove away." [0]

So, since DOJ criminal charges awe usually well ahead of SEC civil charges, that means we probably won't see them? Or did you mix up some of the ordering there (as the wording makes it look like maybe you were trying to say we might see DOJ charges eventually because they take longer).

It seems silly perhaps but for true value I have a kind of thought experiment: If we took everything away from you what would you want the most? Breathable oxygen is nice to have. Second? Probably water. 3rd probably a comfortable enough place to sleep. 4th would be some kind of food. Here it gets less obvious but opinions shouldn't vary to much. 5th at least some cloths? 6th a roof over your head? (depends on the climate ofc) 7th someone to talk with? 8th a partner perhaps? 9th a decent pair of shoes?

If we don't look at things that way we might think that there is so much air and so much clean drinking water that it doesn't have value. You can just keep taking it in unlimited amounts until it gets scarce enough to create a market for it self. At that point we might argue the economy is growing.

We also love to tell [mainly ourselves] comforting stories about well being that exclude those who are not doing well. I mean, your life isn't all that valuable to me is it? If I can have shoes and you would have to go without air it would be hard to turn down the shoes? Economically shoes are a great idea?
What is all of this technical jargon? This is not the solution at all.

If it's equally hard and an equivalent amount of effort than starting from scratch then it's completely a non solution. It's just another giant mountain to climb.

That's what distinguishes "cancel culture" from the general concept of challenging authority. It's the implied threat of social media mobs coming after your job and your relationships.

In my area (the Florida Keys) they significantly increase the heat of the home. A good alternative to pressure treated lumber is IPE. If one actually does a little digging they can find it from sellers close to the source and get it for pennies on the dollar. I did 2000 sq ft of wrap around decking for right at 10K. That was with me installing it, but pressure treated would have been 8K with me installing it.

That is exactly what they are trying to avoid. It is _their_ family home. They built the house for themselves–for their life. That is why the total square footage isn't as important–each of their rooms is built around their life style for better space efficiency. People focusing so strongly the selling a house they haven't even purchased yet.

I live in a log cabin in the woods. They didn't have ductwork or AC in the 1830s when it was built (and they don't have the trees to make 14-inch squared timber walls today).
