I lived and worked in China for nearly a decade, which I would say is first hand experience of this.

But you don't need firsthand experience to understand that significant discrimination exists. China is 92% Han Chinese, and official sources will tell you that the other 8% consists of 54 minority groups living in harmony. What degree of representation do those 8% have among business and government elite? Are there many Tibetan or Uighur CEO's in China? How about minority members of the CCP standing committee?

At a cultural level, widespread discrimination exists. People variously describe the minority groups as old-fashioned, dangerous, lazy, or as if they're attractions at a folk festival, with "great food," and "colorful clothes."

There are weakly designed and poorly enforced laws which are supposed to counteract that. For instance, people from minority regions get 10 extra points on their college entrance exam. But how much is that worth when no one will hire you because of your race? Unless that kind of affirmative action is followed up with something like enforceable laws around discriminatory hiring practices, or wrongful termination legislation, then its as ineffective as it is demeaning. Hence why I referred to it as "lip service." An insincere expression of a desire to solve a problem.

Irrevocability- for consumer payments there will always be revocability.

And yet, if you go into a store and buy something with cash, you have never been able to just arbitrarily reverse that payment and keep the goods several months later, and the sky has not fallen.

Humans doing stuff make mistakes, and need to be able to "take it back."

And what about the humans who didn't make a mistake, but simply chose to abuse the system at the expense of whoever they transferred the money to? Certainty and security are important for those on both sides of a transaction. If you have a dispute, that's what legal systems are there for. The quasi-judicial role that financial services play in resolving disputes, often with little regulatory oversight and absolutely no requirement to be neutral or objective, is long overdue for retirement.

I certainly don't "worship Singapore" as some "fantasy land of perfection".

Personally, I am still angry at Singapore over the execution of Van Tuong Nguyen.

Malaysia at least is working on trying to abolish the death penalty. Singapore doesn't appear interested in that.

Malaysia is definitely ahead of Singapore in the area of political pluralism (although it is too early to say whether Malaysia's recent improvements in this area are going to endure.)

On the other hand, in the specific area of treatment of ethnic minorities, I still believe Singapore is ahead of Malaysia. The Singaporean government does ethnically discriminate in some areas, but to a far lesser extent than the Malaysian government does

Religious freedom is another area in which I'd say Singapore remains ahead of Malaysia: the Singaporean government imposes some restrictions on non-mainstream religious groups (like Jehovah's Witnesses and Unification Church), but it is officially neutral in religious matters; Malaysia's government does not display anywhere near the same neutrality
Everyone has a range of opinions and some of them will be factually/morally/logically/practically objectionable. The fact that Gates has an opinion that you, I or indeed everyone disagrees with is not interesting.

What about "It’s insane how confused the trials here in the US have been."? That opinion is very important and has implications for how everyone here should act. The last 6 months have been expensively purchased and the best thing that could have been bought was good information. If that time has been wasted then there should be reform of an evidence-based nature. This is an opinion that really deserves debate, opinions thrown about and evidence dredged up. With encryption, HN will basically just agree that he is wrong and everyone likes encryption. Not much more to say. Maybe we will think of the children on the way thorough.

Encryption is an important issue but frankly that isn't what Gates is talking about, so arguing about it is a bit pointless. It is barely even germain to the topic he is talking about. He is talking about a global pandemic.
YES! Not everyone has the luxury of evergreen continuous deployments onto their own infra. It is quite common for enterprise software that runs in clients data centers to splinter/branch in this way - since they usually want to manage the risk by staging specific versions of your software for testing before going live. They may consider some of your new features on the main branch as too risky, but still want you to backport fixes to their release branch
I read the paper and have doubts on the assessment of absolute pitch.

> Participants heard one synthesized piano tone per trial, for a total of 18 trials, in a semi-randomized order, the only constraint being that successive tones were separated by an interval greater than one octave. The tones were 500 ms in duration and interleaved by 3750 ms of silence, and were identical to the stimuli used during training

Only the first stimuli is a test of absolute pitch. Afterwards, relative pitch can easily help.

There is no measure (that I could see) that prevents the subjects from simply memorizing the feeling of hearing a tune because they had just gone through heavy training.

For instance, I don't have absolute pitch. But because I tune a violin daily, I can remember what A4 sound like, and deduce what other notes sound like based on that. People with absolute pitch doesn't have to do that.

In addition, testing with 12 notes is way too easy.

So, I would say "Valproate" improves the effect of ear-training, instead of saying the subjects really developed AP.
You’re not wrong, but at that point it’s basically just an ice chest—a bunch of ice will keep perishables cold, whether it’s in a fridge or a portable cooler or whatever. Not as efficient, maybe, but a modern fridge is already quite efficient at retaining coolness, so I don’t see why this isn’t a permanent solution!
Personally, I throw blocks of dry ice in there as soon as the power has been out a few hours, just in case. Beats regular ice all the way.

> Saying it's (always?) (usually?) the governments fault is capitalist propaganda.

I gather from your post that you may not have much experience with startups or small business on your own, despite where we are. Because all the things you say are hard or impossible or just not done, are things you see daily. People with no IP working around that of others, which is the same problem for you as a foreign company. People in developing countries starting businesses to trade with the west (i.e. you). People in developing countries looking to what the west needs, gaining the skills via western training (often free), then making lots of money providing it to the west. And yes the killer is governments. The "wealth of nations" is a simple model: skilled laborers use technology to produce more than they need, which they can trade to people with complementary skills. That's the whole system. Borders and cultures and IP are just details to work around. Ultimately there is one big market. The only countries that needs to relive the 19th and 20th centuries in this silly development-process narrative everyone pushes, is places who's govt restricts them to a little local economy foolishly.

What's fascinating is that you can basically run a country with little to no "actual" development of computer hardware, and just have an entire industry around "copying" to keep yourself up to date (or a few years behind at most).

This is pretty evident with China of the past few years in military tech, and now they are starting to leap frog (See engine issues with their new fighter, and how they are almost there but not quite. Russia is unwilling to sell them newer engines for fear of copying essentially)
That may be, but I looked for references in the story for modern female mangaka that might have been influenced by her work and the author does not seem to make that case. Instead the author seems to only talk about the work and art that influenced Kuniko Tsurita, and presents it as a given that she shaped manga history rather than was just another participant.

Searching around, I found an article in The Comics Journal[1] from July 22nd, an article from The Paris Review[2] July 17th, an article from coolyeahright[3] July 7th, and an article from AnimeNewsNetwork[4] from July 2019. All of them are talking about Kuniko Tsurita’s compilation that was released in English last month, The Sky is Blue with a Single Cloud, not one of them draws a straight line between her work and the work of female mangaka today, so I think it’s fair to say the Atlantic is taking some license with what would otherwise be a review of a manga compilation.

Since interest rates bottomed out, my credit union has been sending twice-a-week promos for $8-$10k personal loans to consolidate and pay off credit card debt. The rates are typically 7-10%, cheap compared to a lot of bad-credit-allowed card issuers, and I've seen some lenders go as far down as 6% on up to $100k over 2-3 year repayment periods.

The loans are probably considered low risk between the combo of stimulus checks, tax refunds (July 15 was the filing deadline so rebate checks are hitting now or soon), juiced-up unemployment benefits, and rent forgiveness/deferral all hitting at once.

So I'd be curious to see if there's any correlation between credit card debt and "personal" (non-mortgage, non-auto) loan balances. It could just be refinancing via consolidation.
You're receiving downvotes not out of some sort of "Patriot Duty"... You're receiving downvotes because almost all you said is wrong, and/or perceived very differently by US Citizens.

This is the danger you wade into when commenting psuedo-authoritatively about the internal politics of another Nation. You're very unlikely to have a complete picture, or deep enough understanding to make anything but surface-level superficial comments. The only sources available are partisan and political, particularly the stuff that makes it's way overseas. It would be unreasonable to expect otherwise.

As an American, I could easily retort we could have all the nice things if you European's would just pay for your own militaries for once! But that would be a gross simplification of international politics, and a, likely, gross mischaractarization of your country's politics.
I generally agree, except if I don't. Whether or not that is the case, I'm entirely uncertain about!

Generalizing to transportation one might ask: What is the better transportation device, a boat or a horse?

... of which one can somewhat reasonably conclude, that whether the question itself is the right question, is the real question.

Few oppose types if they don't have to do anything at all and if it doesn't take any of their time either in runtime, compile time, or otherwise. Realities being what they are, there is always at least some parts of the aforementioned that is false for any type system that is actually useful.

Because of this, and for a few other similar characteristics of types and computation, it boils down to nothing but a question of which kind of tradeoffs people find palatable.

Given that premise, there should be no surprise that the answers are subjective no matter the responder. The question of better is here nothing but an entirely subjective question veiled as an ostensibly objective one.

Here's the greater point no one is talking about. Reread Gates statements. Illegal porn was practically an aside tossed in at the last minute. His point was lies.

Encryption was the enemy because it enabled lies.

The difference between Gates and LEO/Politicians? Gates lacks their dishonesty.

LEO & pols have a terribly long history of leveraging extreme behavior as justification for increasing LEO/Gov power+budgets, along with a corresponding loss of our civil liberties (which translates to increased Gov/LEO power).

re:9/11

All of us remember how tech + new gov powers + gobs of cash were necessary to stop the terrorists (practically in our borders and ready any second to unleash more devastating attacks).

Less remembered is how anti-terror Tech/Power/Cash is being used against low-level offenders (eg: Fusion Centers)

And sickeningly predictable, anti-terror tech is today being deployed against people who criticize cops (eg: protests)

Which is exactly what the history of LEO (Gov,etc) suggested was going to happen (eg: War On Drugs). That same history is now poking at us to realize that we can expect the same from War On Illegal Porn.

At least that's something we could learn, if learning from history is something we wanted to do.

Related ... the last time I was in the market for a chest freezer (a "deep freeze") I wanted one that showed a log of temperature over time ...

This, essentially, does not exist. It appears that there are laboratory freezers that support this (very simple) feature, but they are relatively small and very expensive.

A better way to go is an electricity monitor on the plug, where you track electrical power over time and assume (reasonably) that full electrical power implies full temperature control.

Still ... a simple log of temperature over time (without resorting to weird solutions with raspis dangling temp wires into the freezer ...) would be a very nice feature and I'm disappointed that it doesn't exist ...
While I get the credit reporting agency angle, it was far more slick than typical credit verification question. A single field to enter the account number! You don’t even have to say what that number is for.
Infants can distinguish nearly any sound in any language, but not all sounds are important. They lose the ability to distinguish sounds that they don't need to distinguish. The experiment to figure this out is pretty interesting.

A native English speaker has no problem distinguishing /θ/ as in "this" from /s/ as in "sis", but not very many languages need you to make this distinction, so people who learn English later in life have a very hard time with it.

Likewise, English speakers can't tell the difference between long and short vowels, or long and short consonants. That's because there are no long and short vowels or consonants in English--the distinction doesn't matter. But you'd have a hard time learning Finnish or Japanese without it.

And then there are the weird cases, like how in English we have rules for aspirating and voicing /t/ and /k/. If you speak Mandarin then you might pick out /t/ as if it were /d/, but only in certain positions. So "stop" might sound like "sdop", but "top" sounds like "top".

How do you safely handle dry ice? I'm legitimately asking, I know retailers sell it with big warning labels but I wouldn't know how to transport it, move it, and similar.
You want the contents to remain BELOW 0C, not hovering at 0C while everything melts.

You can do this by adding some salt-water bottles, which have a lower melting point, and will therefore absorb a lot of heat (heat of fusion) well below 0C. Eg add 250g salt/liter gives melting point of -18C.

Of course you waste some space on useless salt water vs potable - maybe there are better alternatives, eg fruit juice? Milk? Honey?

I'm not sure bars existed in the times of Black Death. I learned recently that a sit down restaurant with a menu is a relatively new thing. Two hundred years or so. Plus minus a few decades.

Your point still stands though. I just thought I would point that out as I found it somewhat interesting because for a long time I had assumed that restaurant business was much older than that.
