> The problem with allowing children at home forever is a lack of forced maturity.

I suppose here there is a distinction to be made between "never left" and "came back."

Though I guess often the "came back" turns more into "my parents live with us."

I don't think there's anything wrong with kids and parents living together long term, but I agree that there needs to be the forced maturation of having to deal with your own problems at some point in between.
I'm more afraid what changes in agricultural zones will do to political stability. If all agriculture happens in Canada in Siberia, and the rest of the world becomes unable to feed itself, I think that could cause wars.
Then you definitely don't know to use it to it's usefulness. But that's OK, as long as Excel fits you needs. You do know, just like in Excel, you can simply right click on column data and select order, yes? Or filter if you want.

To your point, if I have a .csv file I can simply copy/paste it to Access in a new table, and just next/next through the wizard that will pop-up. Now do a test, get that .csv file, with 20k rows, and paste it in Excel 50 times, so you'll have 1M records in a table. Let me know in how much time Excel vs. Access will order it.
I'm not OP but I dated the daughter of very conservative parents for several years before finally marrying her. We each lived at home and in fact she moved into my home after marriage because I have an elderly (I was born late) widow as a parent and leaving them behind to rot from solitude was not an option.

I think I can summarize it as: it's never been ideal, but we always made it work, and I'm the kind of guy who likes to remember there are always much worse problems elsewhere in the world. if the worst problem I had to solve was not enough privacy with my gf/wife, then I was doing pretty good on a global scale.
Is it just me or does it really boil down to the simple fact that the vast majority of people are likely to choose the largest amount of money? If I thought I was going to get paid for doing practically anything, even if it was a small chance, and I was presented with similar options, of course I would choose the largest amount. This is especially true of doing something as easy as not using Facebook.

As an aside, I haven’t used Facebook in years and I haven’t used any other mainstream social sites in months. I don’t really miss them. I wish I could ditch LinkedIn, but it’s proven to be a valuable job search tool more than once and frankly, the recruiter messages keep my mood up to some degree.
Military confederations are a thing and work historically. Anarchists have waged war against conventional armies and fought very well multiple times in history. It just doesn't really check out all that well as an argument in practice.
You make it sound like they had to fill out a form. There was such practice in ancient history where the monarchs would have “swayamvar” and eligible groom candidates would have to go through tests.

In the contemporary world, it’s no different than Tinder/OkC, just the CSS(HTML) is different but the dynamics are the same.
If you're "not all that famous" then by definition you're not an influencer.
>The problem with allowing children at home forever is a lack of forced maturity. Why bother figuring out life as an adult when instead you can continue to live carefree as a child?

Hey, you can figure out life as an adult even while living with your parents. Of course this does not mean spending your day in front of a PlayStation. Living with your parents in your 20's is a great money saver, and it's actually the norm outside the english speaking world. The only downside are decreased sexual opportunities, if you are in that sort of thing.
The 30-amp locking receptacle has become the norm at most U.S. and Caribbean marinas, so equipping your boat with a 30-amp inlet minimizes compatibility problems.

The paradox of Graham Greene
To me it feels more like a unikernel.
Consider direct democracy. If the populous directly proposes and votes for explicit genocide.. how is that a failure of the system? That's democracy in action. To believe in Democracy fundamentally is to believe that The Will Of The People should be done, whether it be noble or heinous. You have to trust the people to make their own decisions and to learn from their mistakes after they have borne the consequences of their actions.

If you concentrate power then only a few get to decide on the matter of genocide. Don't you want a direct say against genocide?

Currently the people bear no responsibility for the actions of their government. They can always say "I just voted for him I didn't know he was going to do that." They are never culpable, never responsible. How can society learn under such conditions?

It's easy for many to ask "What if someone does bad?" under a proposed alternate political system while over looking that representative Democracy is just rebranded tyranny.

Instead of one king we have thousands. Kings of law, kings of the court, kings of action. The people who decide the system have no checks on their power. Once elected we have no hold on them, we can only say "Well we won't elect you again." But only after unjust law had been created. How can any person claim to speak for another? Don't you deserve a direct hand in shaping the rules and priorities of the society you live in? Why should you surrender that power to some random person? How much would you pay someone to undertake a complex and critical task for you without a contract? Would you pay them all of your share of power that is rightfully yours to shape the order of the world you live in-- receiving no guarantees in turn?
I would find a scrabble tournament a lot more interesting if it limited it to the top 10k most common english words.

You wake up.
Brian Krebs (krebsonsecurity.com) has a lot of fascinating stories on his blog on doxxing and revealing identities of people for whom remaining anonymous was vital (spoiler alert: they couldn't).

Keeping totally separate identities across different services is key (using unrelated usernames, avatars, emails for every service). It’s also extremely difficult and unpractical to pull off.

In most doxxing cases perpetrators manage to get access to a single service and use it as a foothold to penetrate to other services. For example, someone learns your email from a forum, somehow hacks your email, gains access to Dropbox and finds the scan of your passport, driver's licence and social security card. Email in general is the key one's digital kingdom so the surest way to minimize the blast radius is to keep everything separate and unrelated.

Edit: typos
>You think that there are some people incapable of living reasonably without force, and that group does not include yourself.

Yes I think so. Are you arguing there are no bad people in the entire human populace?

Regardless, it doesn't make me "special."
> Once you get to the advanced levels of any field, terminology being "accessible" doesn't really matter, but being precise does.

And in what multiverse is "Calabi-Yau manifold" a precise terminology? Literally all that can be gleaned from that is that it's a manifold and it's the invention of some mathematicians (or maybe one mathematician with a hyphenated surname).

> If "contractualism" were just known as "Scanlon's theory" it would be a lot easier.

My disagreement would make diamonds look soft in comparison.

"Contractualism" at least conveys it might have something to do with contracts. "Scanlon's theory" tells me absolutely nothing about what it might be. That is worse by every objective measure.
I remember seeing USB A to A cables. Actually, I just found one on Amazon. The only reason I know for these to exist is some external HDD enclosures where the designer somehow understood USB well enough to make a controller board, but not well enough to know it should have been a B connector.
>> 2025 US population to be between 225M and 392M

> That's 2050 in the document.

Yes, you are right, my apologies.

2025 predictions are between 221M and 318M (table, page 16) which makes their "projection B" scenario almost exactly correct.

>2020 is 210 - 305 million estimate. (pdf p29)

Page 29 is a table called "Relative comparison of dependant and productive groups in the United States". There are no population numbers.

Page 25 has a graph which you maybe referring to. That doesn't have numbers, but they seem to be plotting the numbers from page 16.

> But not fertility. You won't be living to 120 without being a healthy and fertile 60 year old.

What evidence do you have of that? Increased life expectancy for women so far hasn't been matched by an increase in fertility beyond 40 years old.

That PDU is going to have a circuit breaker in it which is set for 30A.

Isn't the breaker supposed to protect the damage? If it doesn't, why not just make the breaker more sensitive?
The full news release from Pew [0] indicates that this is analysis of the monthly Current Population Survey [1] conducted by the Department of Labor.

"The analysis of recent trends and characteristics is based on the monthly Current Population Survey (CPS), conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau for the Bureau of Labor Statistics."

In particular, further in Pew's methodology section ("How we did this"), the authors note that the CPS counts all unmarried students in dorms as living with their parents. This is a pretty big caveat. However, this still indicates an shift of students living off-campus who moved back in with their parents.

Additionally:

"The Current Population Survey (CPS), also referred to as the household survey, is a monthly sample survey of 60,000 eligible households conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau for the Bureau of Labor Statistics

The survey is conducted using a combination of live telephone and in-person interviews with household respondents."

So, the shift is driven by surveys, rather than generic assumptions.

That said, IMO, the value-add of this analysis is not the top-line number, but the relative shift (5% absolute increase _since February_).

Are you thinking of dynamic programming? It's the most poorly named thing in CS, in my opinion. The name tells you absolutely nothing about what it is, and IIRC the name "dynamic" was chosen because it's difficult to use as a pejorative.
We've got at least one physicist in our corner:

"Hestenes is adamant about calling this mathematical approach “geometric algebra” and its extension “geometric calculus,” rather than referring to it as “Clifford algebra”."

Unfortunately, this should really be called algebraic geometry, but that name is already taken by another field...
This isn’t social media. Nor is Reddit or other similar sites. The main criteria is “social”. That means human relationships, friendships, family, etc. I don’t have any sort of relationship with anyone on HN, Reddit, etc. We are all strangers passing in the night. Basically anti-social media.
At the most basic level, don't say anything online you wouldn't want seen again. Not in discord, not on twitter, nowhere. Always treat anything you disclose online as if it's public knowledge from that point on. Even if you delete it, there's a tonne of third parties that archive data you post, even on more "ephemeral" services.
That's new, though. It used to be that kids got out of high school and moved into their own houses right away. Only about half of the people from my high school class went to college. The other half went out and got jobs as oil field welders or whatever and had bought houses by the age of 20.

I think it's a real problem for our future that there are now lots of adults who have never lived to see a functioning housing market with plentiful supply. Everyone under 30 thinks its normal that you have to save your salary for 25 years to afford a down payment on a home. It isn't.

This seems to be written by someone that doesn't understand electrical wiring. I have (and sometimes use) adapter cables like these (5-15P to L5-20R).

As other people have pointed out, you can draw a lot more than 15 amps through a 15-amp cable by plugging a simple Y connector into the end. That's why 15-amp circuits have 15-amp breakers in the panel. There are a variety of devices that could draw 20 amps (and thus have 20 amp NEMA connectors) but don't necessarily. If everything is wired properly, the worst that happens is you pop a breaker.

I would be more concerned about the gender-opposite of the connector shown (ie, L5-20Plug to 5-15Receptacle). That would allow you to plug a 15-amp rated cable into a circuit which is defended by a 20amp breaker - now the cable is the weakest link.

TL;DR: She has it backwards.
Are there any paid services that will do the work to opt you out of all of these?
I've been playing fairly regularly on lichess and I can assure you that I have not yet met players that were using computers to cheat.

> as if to say that Shakespeare spoke with one of today's American accents, and frankly that sounds kind of dubious

To suggest that Shakespeare spoke with an American accent would be silly, but it is true that the non-rhotic "r" didn't become widespread until after Shakespeare's time, starting as a marker of prestige among the British upper classes in the mid-1700s (and spreading to the wannabe-aristocracy in the colonies, hence the stereotypical accent of the American Southern plantation owner). If the pronunciation of words like "car" is how one distinguishes British from American, then I suppose yes, Shakespeare would sound a bit less British than you might expect.

The CPS response rate has plummeted from 90% to 50% since the pandemic. I wonder how the affects the comparability of data from different phases of the survey.
This takes me back to the days when so much of web apps was tied to non-web things. Skeupomorphisms were pretty good UX, but also the fact that layouts looks like ads or newspapers, trying to conserve room and increase information density.

The websites themselves weren't much in the way of a destination, rather they tied you into other real world things: family, computers systems, hobbies. They were relevant only as much as they enriched real life.

Now the website is the full app and experience. No need to go anywhere else. In fact it's desirable that you stay on one property, such as Facebook for as long as possible. It's like a big box store.

But back to the point I wanted to make originally: the work has fundamentally changed. I remember coding a backend to get old scientific python scripts to run from commands via Sharepoint buttons. The web couldn't do anything so you had to tie it to systems that could. Now you have to get it all running in Javascript --- not sure how many people saw that coming :-D.

I wonder if anyone has any thoughts along those lines?
But why do you have to be able to glean meaning from the phrase alone? And how often does that really happen in other situations, when last names aren’t involved?

The term “polymorphism” is a good example. It isn’t named after someone, but could anyone without a background in computer science have any clue what that term actually refers to? Sure, they could examine the root words and try to figure it out, but would they be any closer to the actual meaning of the word?

I don’t think it makes sense to make field-specific jargon accessible to the masses. Instead I think it makes more sense to make it easily researchable and distinct from more commonplace words.
I’ve been through most of these and removing yourself really can be done. In many cases the removal is considered temporary and you have to repeat every four to ten years. It’s not possible to get off of the skip trace and debt collectors databases run by Transunion, Experian, and others - but you can flood them with false information and they will record it and keep it forever.
As ML has demonstrated, more data doesn't mean better data.

I've been loving Pop OS! lately. It feels like a "what if" version of Ubuntu had they not spent years pushing Unity, Snap, and their other side projects and just focused on the distro. Super responsive and easy to use, regardless of if you're using free or proprietary software.
Unrelated to this article about ‘dark’ restaurant bulk delivery, I often think that wouldn’t my neighborhoods be oh-so-much quieter and less smoggy if UPS, FedEx, and USPS only delivered there for residential deliveries X number of days per week?

If someone really needs it ASAP, too bad. Delivery schedules should be set in stone or else the party in question can go to a pickup center or an Amazon locker, etc.

What’s really funny to me is all these people desperately loving their Prime memberships and then just letting their boxes pile up on their porches or inside their houses unopened.

No amount of money for a Prime membership should require delivery vans to swarm a neighborhood every day of the week. You get your boxes on M/W/F or T/Th/Sa depending on the delivery company.

Cities like London are leading the way on reducing unnecessary traffic in their inner circles, but what about our quiet neighborhoods? We need a break. It’s turning into a commercial district in some neighborhoods because of the insanity of daily (sometimes multiple times per day) deliveries.

Same with the USPS. If it’s so desperate for cash, switch everyone to 3x per week for residential. I can’t think of a package or piece of mail I’ve ever received that couldn’t have waited until the next day. Quite honestly, it would be reclaimed time in my week not to have to “check” my residential mailbox 6x/week. Yes, I often forget or decide not to, but I’m lucky I don’t have mail thieves poking into boxes in my area. Not everyone has the luxury to ignore their residential mail.
This is likely why they say the option you choose will not impact how much money you are given. If you choose $50/week, and are then offered $5/week and take it, they know you were overestimating. The study wants to learn empirically the relationship between perceived and actual willingness to abstain from Facebook at various price points.
I tried changing my writing style on my different personas and it is extremely difficult to keep up with. On one I'd never capitalize anything, another I would never use apostrophes, and then I had one that always used the wrong form of they're/their/there or to/too. Despite all those efforts, I could never consistently change my vocabulary and I did have someone call out a post of mine and link it to secondary accounts. I ended up ignoring the allegation and I never heard from the person again.

If there was some service to normalize, or better yet randomize writing styles, I'd love to know about them.

Honestly, I don't see how the US can dig itself out of this one. The Chinese circumvented this problem by reducing the agrarian population significantly while acquiring massive land tracts in Africa for cultivation, but the US will be bound by the farming lobby.
