I dunno. I believe it's actually pretty easy to get away with lots of crime. It's just that the smart ones don't get caught.

> Also, smart people tend to do something with their life, so they are less inclined to be attracted by terrorism.

that probably plays a role. And they are perhaps more likely to consider the ethical dimension.
That sounds pretty reasonable to me. You don't want to dive straight into depth-first because then you disappear down a rabbit hole with no context to tell you whether it's the right rabbit hole.

Start out with breadth-first until you have a feel for the lay of the land, then pick a direction to journey in.
Progressive Work Environment for Productivity
300 years for dangerous nuclear waste, 2000 if you want to go to average mS levels.

You have your orders of magnitude wrong. Solar panels (as in photovoltaic energy) is the worst "green" energy when accounting for waste and probably the one that caused the most cancer with children near zinc/cadmium mines, but fear not, in the following years they will start killing people near landfills[0][1]. More wastefull in term of minerals too, but veolia might have something to say bout this (Best company working with renewable imo). Maybe in 50 years.

You can't smelt rare earth without a lot of energy, whereas you can reduce iron and CaCO3 with hydrogen and make steel and cement almost carbon-free. And as Fe and CaCO3 are present almost everywhere, you also don't have to globablize the production.

Ow, and if you evalutate the CO2 ton to be around 100$ (i think its at least 4 time this price), solar energy is twice as expensive to build and install as nuclear per kWh(and if we start reducing iron and cement with hydrogen, the difference will only grow). Thats only installed power, not produced power, also not counting energy storage.

I really like wind though and geotermic energy though, i think thermo solar is a good idea (not as good as passive) and maybe next gen solar won't use as much rare earth. Also if you're really interested, you should check how a power grid works.

I can’t even decide where to start picking apart these arguments... it’s mostly just a “the skies are falling” fear-trip occurring whenever some significantly new status quo emerges.

Sure, literacy made people less willing to spend their lives farming for a pittance, but we managed to industrialize farming and some of those peasant families contributed to society more than a couple loads of bread.

Let’s put it this way: we’re on the path to fully disassemble cellular processes, we won’t need natural selection to tune our immune system when we can design a better one ourselves
Vaquita is exactly in the same point, and we are doing exactly the same.
Actually it was their accountant.

In any case, it's not them who are exploiting the information. The ad industry is like a fence for stolen goods.

It's not that my medical information is top secret; it's that I don't want to see ads about earwax. And I think Google execs should be forced to watch them until they repent and become monks or something.
Designing Change in Complex Systems
I still kick myself for not buying a sunburst yellow Miata when I saw a low mile one come up for sale in the early 2000s.

Red was good, but they were common.

(Last time I checked, there was about a 3x premium on the yellow ones, because there were only 1500 of them made. The one that got away and all that.)
Multi is open source software (GPLv3), but it is also paid software ($15).
I wonder if this predates any Apple MagSafe patents...
> Actually often I wish that AI papers contained code instead of math so that it's clearer how it can be implemented

That's insanity. Sure, code is a nice addition, but it does not convey the same information as the math does.

It's akin to asking to replace an engineer's design of a bridge with a scale model.
Huh? This is completely wrong.

For instance, I have Thoracic Outlet Syndrome. It's something really fucking shitty that overhead sports players and computer nerds are prone to (along with those with connective tissue disorders)

It's surprisingly super fucking hard to get right and general surgeons have fucked a lot of people up attempting to do it. Most famously, a Houston Astros pitcher was left paralyzed by the surgery, and his surgeon later ran into him homeless under a bridge. I think I have that linked in my more recent of comments.

Anyways, there are about 5 major hospitals in the U.S. with completely specialized Thoracic Outlet Surgery divisions within their vascular surgery wing of the hospital. These surgeons only do this one specific surgery - removing first/cervical ribs, sometimes along with two other involved muscles. My surgeon is Dr. Dean Donahue of Boston Mass General's Thoracic Outlet Surgery Program - arguably the most famous and successful practicioner of said surgery in the U.S./world.

Now, obviously, my condition isn't some special case. There's quite a few 'rarer' super specific medical conditions requiring a single specific surgery that larger U.S. hospitals (think Mayo Clinic, Cedars Sinai, Mass General, Cleveland Clinic, etc) do have devoted wings for with surgeons that only do that singular procedure in their otherwise generalized division. Not just the "Oklahoma Surgery Center"

Sorry if I misinterpreted what you were saying or if this otherwise seems like I'm ranting and rambling haha. Not trying to rant - just wanted to inform/give some insight.
Linking to an endorsement page doesn’t tell the whole story.

I would be pretty surprised if Metallica were using the technology you are describing. They have an extremely consistent setup that has worked for decades and an effectively infinite budget.

That’s just one concrete example.

I think a lot of the comments in this thread are missing the fact that if a player thinks a thing has irreproducable properties, they may be happier and more creative while using it.
No it doesn’t. At least not normally. Google the prevalence rates of heart disease in people under 40.

About 0.6% of people under 40 have the most common type of heart disease

https://www.heart.org/idc/groups/heart-public/@wcm/@sop/@smd...

Again pointing out that it is the 2nd most common killer vastly overestimates its evolutionary impact. The same is true of cancer.
We already can’t keep governments to account what do they need more control for?
So the AIER is located in Great Barrington Mass.

This declaration seems to be named after that area.

This article does not indicate a y relationship between AIER and the declaration or between AIER and the scientists that supposedly signed the declaration.

Oh and what a surprise a few more minutes if googling and it seems like they are funded by the Koch brothers.

Just more propaganda from some right wing billionaires.
Most of the time, it isn't very useful to have javascript even exist, even though there isn't 3rd party dep.

For example, have you even been in the settings areas of GitHub and thought "I wish there was more async here!"?

In ASP.NET MVC, doing full postbacks means very simple controllers/actions/views that a junior could understand.
> Sweden. Use of different rulers by builders caused the Vasa to be more heavily built on its port side and the ship's designer, not having built a ship with two gun decks before, overbuilt the upper decks, leading to a design that was top heavy. Twenty minutes into its maiden voyage in 1628, the ship heeled to port and sank.

I don't know if this belongs in the list. xD
With all the different package managers out there, it's just not much fun to keep track of all the rules and special cases for each tool. Better to just have a "--rollback" option.
If we can't protect the most vulnerable, how can we protect everybody then? Seems like focus should be in order.

Ripcord will be great one day, but e.g. for Discord it doesn't seem to support rate-limited channels (which means most in my case). Otherwise it seems a wonderful app and I wish the missing functionality is added soon.
And that's the same with DRM? Unless I am missing something.
I’d really like a citation on the medical literature portion of your comment.

I am under the impression I am well read on this topic, and I don’t recognize that claim.

The idea that this technology is "the most popular" is incorrect as is the idea that tube amps are unreliable.

The katana and fender GT sound "fine" but the assertion that they can model traditional tube amps well enough for stage use is also a little suspect. Those specific amps sound thin and lifeless compared to the amps they attempt to model.

Where these types of amps shine is that they're lighter and you can have a more consistent sound at lower volumes. For a person in their house who isn't really worried about having a specific sound or may not even know the difference between british and american voiced amps these are great options. Also the volume issue only comes into play when we're thinking about gain and compression. My fender Deluxe Reverb sounds amazing at low volume.

The AxeFx and helix stuff is a little better but that stuff is way more expensive than your average tube amp, particularly on the used market. Your average 40 watt tube amp from fender, vox, marshall, etc will run you $700-$1500 while these high end modellers can easily be $2500+.

As far as tube amps being unreliable goes I'd love to see some sources on that. I've played fender amps from the 50s and marshalls from the 60s that sound every bit as good today as they did when they were made.

I work in very high end music retail where I'm fortunate enough to get to play all kinds of new and very old gear. I can confidently say that modelling is getting better and has drastically improved in the last 20 years but still has a ways to go if it's going to completely replace tube amps for stage and studio use.
It probably works for them, just as "like, subscribe, press a bell, comment" does. Idk who these people are, who have to be told to subscribe and comment on a content they like, but they exist in big volumes.

They had hydrogen personal vehicles for a while. But they don't sell well and can't actually compete in terms of performance with current gen vehicles already.
Covid-19 Timelapse Visualisation
Hello, I've built an interactive timelapse of the Covid-19 pandemic where you can see how it occured globally per country.

The source code is also available at: https://github.com/codingedward/ailing-planet
The result in itself as presented in the article derives from a somewhat easy to follow train of thoughts:

- sound is a longitudinal wave propagating through a medium;

- its speed of propagation depends on some properties of said medium;

- thus a physical uperbound on these properties imply an uperbound on the speed of sound.

The fact that an upper limit exists is in itself obvious (we already knew one: the speed of light in a vacuum). Properly deriving it is the interesting part.
Flagship smartphones are cameras first, and phones second.

The iPhone camera module is among most expensive parts in the bill of materials, at about $37.60.

The Apple processor is about $30. NAND and RAM? $40 combined. TrueDepth? $17.

I think it's just a throwaway joke about/against D&D itself (for being (at least perceived as) predominantly male, as you said) rather than any kind of serious comment made at the expense of women.
I like this version:

In order to understand recursion, you must first understand recursion.
I was on some Facebook thread and some people were posting screenshots of how they lost 100% during the pandemic... Like $20,000 -> 0 in a matter of weeks. It was extraordinary. They were all using WSB and doing extremely foolish options trades.

Right, but there are also traders who have made 10x or more. Many have turned a few thousand into 5 or 6 figures. You have to find the right strategies and traders to follow. There are traders who demonstrate skill, by consistently making profits. This involves optimal position sizing and optimal call option duration and strike prices and other factors such as momentum.
oh what a surprising collision of world :)

> The internet is just mean, to everyone. I feel like with the negative karma on all this ladies unpleasant comments she really didn't get it that bad.

I don't think gatekeeping bad experiences on the internet is really helpful here.
This is really only an issue if you're driving 100 watt amps to the brink to get higher gain. You can buy 20 and even 10 watt tube amps that sound fantastic and are much more manageable.

Guitar players always think you need a gigantic marshall stack to get good tone when for most people that is way too much and they'll never hear it the way it's supposed to sound.
The reason is simple. They should not try to moderate things unrelated to them.

Imagine if Chrome decides to stop connecting to a site because the Govt asks Google to do it. They can do it. But they shouldn't
That sounds like a dangerous design flaw. What does “some jank” mean?
That doesn't matter. How many people does something have to be able to kill before being banned? The truck attack in France was deadlier than any mass shooting in America.

There are costs to freedom, including the potential for abuse. Just like predictive policing is wrong because it goes after those who haven't committed crimes, banning guns is wrong. The death of a ten, a hundred, a thousand, or more people doesn't justify restricting liberty. All guns ought to be legal.
However valid and legitimate the points in the Great Barrington Declaration are, you can't take the number of signatures seriously when anyone can sign it with junk.

Signatures like "Dr Johnny Bananas", "Dr Person Fakename", "Dr I.P. Freely", "Dr of Hard Sums" doesn't really add a legitimate weight to it. Not sure if you can reliably solve that problem though.
I have found that over time, I have become more sceptical about new shiny things in the programming world. Every now and then, I wonder if I’m becoming the dreaded veteran dinosaur type, the developer who has more demands on their time now and who just hasn’t kept up with the tech.

But then I look at all the troubles the kids have with their fragile, short-lived tools. I recognise short-sighted design decisions they’re making because they’re being pushed into them by some shiny new library. I notice that many of those tools and libraries have big names behind them, and that the Zeitgeist people think you’re weird if you’re not using them, and remind myself that these things are only ever means to an end, no matter how popular they become.

Of course it’s useful to keep generally aware of what’s happening in the industry and from time to time a genuine improvement does come along. However, there is definitely a difference between not keeping up and not wasting your time repeating past mistakes or following blind alleys that often end up at dead ends.
My only live experience of Vanilla Ice was when he did a Christmas Pantomime in Chatham in Kent. He played Captain Hook. [1]. It was actually a lot of fun. All through the show they teased Ice Ice Baby ("Captain - the pirates are overheating. They need some rice, rice baby" etc etc).

He eventually performed his hit at the end. He definitely looked like he was enjoying himself and didn't take himself too seriously.

He also used to be in a tv show on cable channel called Men and Motors, reviewing the in-car entertainment in young people's cars with Jordan (a glamour model/reality tv star). It was called Ice with Jordan [2]

I really feel I could do a page of footnotes here for non-Brits explaining what a pantomime is in the UK, equivalent US towns to Chatham, who Jordan is etc etc.

It will use hacked Equifax credit reports to generate an amount that you are most likely to have with 95% confidence.

Secondly, Tesla owners tend to be more affluent. Imagine a cyberpunk world where ransomware attacks are a fact of life: buy cheap cars with reasonable security and minimise your total cost of ownership. Heh.
Batteries are getting lighter and lighter as density increases. Also, you can use batteries as part of the structure, making them take over necessary functions.

Next generation batteries like sulfur-silicon can power a personal car and are the size glove box and can be carried by a person. That is a decade away at least but its very promising technology.

I have no problem with producing green CH4 to continue to run legacy systems.
I would like both please. Tracking technology helps with the specific example of tools left inside patients, but does nothing for things like accidentally amputating the wrong leg.
> What you can't correctly argue is that Apple should avoid getting involved.

It is not possible for Apple to start moderating all user generated content in all apps. They shouldn't do it.

With turbos and computer adjustment of timing and everything, it's more plausible than it used to be that premium will give you more power. On the other hand, it's also more likely that a lower grade will not damage your engine even if premium is recommended.
Why would you need to crank it at all? That amp is gonna sound fantastic at half volume. For grit they make excellent overdrives these days.
Thank you for making this comment - without it I would've ignored this new release.

Failure of bundlers (Webpack, Parcel, Rollup, etc) to support import.meta.url has been a major headache for me. Making my JS library usable in sites that use such bundlers in their build chain has led to me making some - questionable, let's say - decisions in the library's code. The sooner I can remove my "solutions", the happier I will be!
> Lots of whataboutism here.

Yes, but im sorry, the discussion is not "nuclear or not nuclear", its nuclear energy or another form of energy

> Anyway, the big issue is that it could have been(and still can be) much worse. it’s a scalable disaster with consequences outlasting human generations. If you need heroic efforts and enormous resources to contain something and there’s a possibility of that not succeed then you don’t want it happen and it’s a big deal.

No, no civil nuclear incident can't be worst than Chernobyl. Right now or in the future. There is no reactor that is using graphite anymore. Even if we lost suddenly all knowledge.
Fukushima however, why not. But if its not happening in the next 50 years, it won't happen after with Gen3 and Gen3+ designs. You can argue than gen3+ designs have a greater surface of attack and are no better than gen3 and i could reluctantly agree, however i think a core catcher is a must have on new designs. We never know what can happen, what if we suddenly lost all knowledge on how to operate a fission plant?
IMO it's the beauty of webpack that they are dogfooding their own APIs and even the basics are implemented as plugins & loaders.

Maybe out there is a better way to design a bundler api. But up until now I only see a flood of one-click bundlers that cover the happy path.

You are joking, but it's illegal in Japan to carry a locked-blade knives or folding knives with blade longer than 5.5cm. You need a solid reason to carry those, like if you just buy it from the shop (in the original package), or if you are a chef, etc.

Because you can't map the whole constantly changing world.

And its highly questionable that their mapping can actually deal with all the incredibly complexity of the real world.

I think there was still debate back then over whether white people should/could rap. One way for MC Serch and others to get credibility was to say "I'm not like that other white rapper."
The money that professional investors make has to come from somewhere. I guess a part of it is coming from these clueless people.
>2) Buy/sell where you have unique expertise. If you work in the toilet hardware industry, buy/sell stocks related to that industry.

A lot of success in investment seems to me to gravitate around what the general populace thinks is valuable or should be valuable. I often find that can sometimes drastically differ than assessments I form based entirely on niche expertise I have in a domain. It's a lot more about asessing perception, ability to manage consumer/investment perceptions, and momentum of perception than it is about assessing functional advantage.

When I make an assessment in an area with niche expertise, I often realize I need to then think a lot more about how other people will perceive and assess the same information. Usually my assessment of others' perception better predicts success than my personal assessment, anecdotally speaking.

The good news is, from my niche expertise domains, I usually have a fairly good sample of interactions with those outside the domain to sample their misperceptions and find what it is people think vs what is actually going on. What I fail at is then predicting the irrational decisions that follow after because that distribution seems to be almost random.

Because of this, I stick with indexes which are a sort indirect popularity listing.
Wow, I am blown away by the feedback and discussion from everyone here. Just want to say that this is an extremely different experience from any other site I’ve been on, so thank you for that. Future goals for this project are to improve the audio quality and get community contributions for model training of different hardware. It’s very much still an experimental project, but I wanted to give an idea of what is possible using deep learning for audio applications.
Based on the comments above, it seems many people think that everyone who goes viral gets a lot of creepy and unwanted attention, but when it happens to women it gets more sympathy than when it happens to men.

Thus giving special attention to women's plight is at odds with our norms of equality. I concur and feel like this is an example of female privilege, where women in general are given more sympathy than men for similar hardships.
