At the risk of sounding all like "you should take what you're given and like it", which is not what I intend... the fact that it's even possible to swap out a cloud service provider without hacking through the code is pretty unusual for a mainstream piece of desktop software.

Yes, Mozilla should document it better and make it easier for people to do it, and avoid making big unannounced changes to it, but they deserve some recognition for making it possible in the first place.

I found that replacing sugar with a Keto or Paleo (or both) diet and daily green tea, then those diets + green tea's appetite suppressant satiated me enough that I never had any sugar cravings and was able to wean myself off it relatively painlessly.
These issues were solved by Ada. If we had gotten modules in 98 C++ wouldn't have become such a gnarly beast to build.
I had something similar happen a few months ago (dead phone and no access to my backup email).

In the end, I had to put my simcard into a new phone and verify.

Sorry I can't be of more help right now with the access issue.

But, some advice from my lesson: EVACUATE FROM GMAIL IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING IMPORTANT IN YOUR EMAILS.

Switch to an email account using a domain you own (and ideally use a paid email provider so you can at least contribute to them sticking around).
Browsers have for some time behaveD quite differently when using HTTPS vs HTTP, particularly if you’re not navigating to precisely http://localhost (e.g. if your dev environment needs multiple domains). In particular a lot of newer browser features will refuse to work, and you won’t be able to see any HTTP/2 specific issues (e.g. header case) either.
That’s pretty similar to the argument Penrose makes - check out some of his interviews.

This is the Boltzmann Brain paradox -- given this probability system, it's much (not going to say infinitely... but practically so) more likely that your perception of this moment is a fluctuation in chaos than that the entire universe as you perceive it currently exists. The parallels to the simulation argument/doomsday hypothesis are, I hope, apparent.

Some annoyances I have found from working from home:

1. Lots of people have horrible internet connections making communication a frustrating experience.
2. Hard to get attention of colleagues when they don't respond on Slack. It was already hard enough in the office but at least you could physically walk into somebody's cube before.
3. Not everyone has the amenities of air conditioning or heating.
If Monty opens all infinity-minus-two doors except for your initial choice and the one with the car, then switching almost surely[1] gives you a car.

I'm curious what you consider the "hoax" in "very fine people hoax". Do you disagree with this analysis (linked below) which claims that the "only very fine non-white-nationalist people" Trump were either (a) at a different activity from the one Trump claimed they were doing, or (b) people who weren't there but Trump thought were there. That analysis puts Trump at best misinformed or confused, if not supportive of the white-nationalists

We want words to communicate, not to abstract robots or something, but to people. Shared experience helps with that. Gravity is a universally shared human experience. So we use words with that bias without even thinking.

Should we change? Why? They communicate, which is the point of words.

I selected the "Backpacks" category and the top 5 results consisted of "dungarees", water bottles and shoes. In fact, only 7 of the 43 results shown were backpacks.

Just a datapoint!
That's the explanation that helped me, and led me to realize something about this problem. The problem asks what is the best strategy. It doesn't ask what should you do at that moment. At that moment implies you should process the information available to you right then and there. The information available to you at that time - two doors, ignores prior information, which I think is the counterintuitive aspect that trips people up.
So we'll use the vaporware hyperloop to get to the airport for the vaporware plane?
In your example, the host didn't get to choose their door, which kept them from choosing goat. As I follow this discussion, the key is the knowledge that given a choice, the host will pick a non-winning door. If the host can't choose, you lose the benefit of that fact.
what are you talking about?

Since we are generalizing, being popular is awesome. And, objectively better than not being popular.

But if an attacker can intercept domain validation to issue a certificate, there is little reason not to protect his own certificate from revocation by preventing subsequent validations until it is used on a target, if he can't hide this fact in some way of course. A report of that will look like someone is trying to revoke a certificate for a domain they don't control and won't actually solve the problem even if a human can be convinced by other method that you do control the domain.

Maybe DNSSEC could be used here to help if ACME added a way to force DNSSEC-only domain validation.

I think the ability to learn a language is often related to how much uncertainty we can currently handle. As I get older, I feel myself and others pressuring me more to "know the answer" to things and don't believe I have as much room to be wrong as I did when I was younger. When I was learning Swahili in Tanzania in my 20s, I was wrong a lot but I guess I wasn't as worried about the consequences.

In short, learning a new language can make us look stupid and as we get older, we may feel more afraid of looking stupid :-D
You can take the same rules about hollywood union rules forcing lighting technicians and camera crew to have roles, even though the big expensive and hot lights they used to safeguard are long since gone. Last year corridor crew did a video where niko broke down how much money he could save by moving to LED lights and cutting the mandatory crew requirement and run small films at affordable prices.

Everybody thinks they're the actor in the hollywood comparison, and they're not. They're more likely the tech guy holding an outdated lamp under union rules.
If both contestants choose the same door, and the host shows a goat, then yes, they both would increase their odds by switching.
Just curious: I can't seem to figure out where the data used on this site is coming from. Is it hardcoded in the app and encoded differently? I can't see an API being used that references any of the products. When I refresh, it seems the data loads at the exact same time as the app which makes me think the data is hardcoded somewhere.

Example: There is a product with the word Dungarees in it, but I can't find any reference to it in the Network tab.
That only holds for people who never rent a car (or only rent cars as good as or worse than the car they own) and never drive a friend's car (or have friends with worse cars).

I definitely don't think it is the only point of confusion, but I definitely think it is a big one. We discussed the problem in my discrete math class and the professor had stated the problem without the constraint. Many in the class, being far too young to even know who Monty Hall is, were confused, and several had their 'aha!' moment once that constraint was mentioned.

> According to Wikipedia, even Paul Erdős remained unconvinced until he was shown a computer simulation.

Interestingly, coding up my own simulation took me from understanding the problem to grokking it. I'd definitely suggest anyone who has programming ability but doesn't grok the problem to write up a simulation.
And if they could have chosen the same but didn’t?

The probability that the host opens a door with a goat is always the same. (Again, under jtsiskin’s assumption that he picks randomly!)
Thank you for this explanation.
Pre-1976, authors had to explicitly add a copyright notice. The Copyright Act of 1976 changed all that. Creative works automatically gained copyright the moment it was created.

I studied abroad in Costa Rica when I was 19 and I remember getting really sick and at something like 2am, my host mother kept trying to chit-chat with me in Spanish and I was feeling so frustrated. But, it helped me learn faster, because I had to struggle through it, not having an English outlet.

Also, I learned Swahili mostly because I didn't have much money in Tanzania and had to negotiate with the local transport so I didn't get charged a super high price.
We can test animals' hearing using a BAER test (https://www.healthline.com/health/baer-brainstem-auditory-ev...) - the same one that we use on human infants for early detection of hearing issues. I don't know if it can detect 'sounds' caused by tinnitus though.

Yep you can do it. One problem is that they are noisy. You will want to hide the extractor fans in the ceiling if you vent up out the roof. Bear in mind that a newer house will be tightly sealed too so your stove/ vent will need it's own air intake as well. I mean you can open a window but I think code will require it to prevent backdraft. Basically the air intake opens when you turn the fan on. Most of your other gas equipment (gas water heater and a gas clothes dryer) will be direct vent though in new builds.
Talk therapy? As in, tinnitus is psychosomatic and you can persuade yourself out of hearing it? O.o

I can't stand it when support is crippled by "policy" - half the time I think they can't either.
I get what you are saying, but if I look at it differently I still intuitively feel like it should be p=1/2 if they switch instead of 2/3. For example:

- the bottom line is Monty will always eliminate one wrong choice

- therefore when they switch, they are choosing between one wrong and one right door, every time, regardless of what came before. (p=1/2)

(edit: thanks i see, no need for any more answers)

The host has no choice in this case so his action has no effect. The chance to win is 1/3 for all. And after the host gets a goat one of the contestant has to wins so its 1/2 for both whether they switch or not.
This is great.

> You're saying the textual contents of the interfaces that define the APIs are not part of the source code base? Of course Google copied them, or a nearly identical paraphrase of them.

Well, they aren't part of the implementation, since they just describe the interface. Google's theory is that interfaces, being needed for interoperability, are not protected by copyright. Google's alternate theory is that, even if they are protected by copyright, using them is fair use.

When I first read Monty Hall problem, I actually thought it was blindingly obvious to switch. The fact the presenter had 2 doors to chose from and the one he opens is a goat _should_ increase the chance of the other one being not(goat) right?

Similar theory I have is that it's acceptable for most children to learn their language full-time; whereas for adults, usually it's a side thing on top of their full-time work.

If given the opportunity to immerse in language learning full-time for 3 years (time it takes for most children to speak somewhat coherently) and with an open mind, adults can react fluency, I think. Maybe even faster than children, since adults have more context to bind and commit new information to long-term memory.

As a kid, memorizing vocabulary words was a brute force task because I had no relevant context (Latin/Greek, history, etc), but now I can pick up words, even foreign words pretty quickly because I have "hooks" in my mind to which I can attach them.
> The myopic internal focus.

So... you wrap HTTP requests in a signed Bitcoin transaction. From what I can tell this adds two features:
1. The request has a GUID
2. The request is authenticated to the owner of the public key

My brain can’t seem to make the connection from those two things to “decentralized internet”. I suspect this might be because I don’t have a lot of experience with web app development. Can you ELI5 this?

Awesome story.
Please excuse the rant, but as an avid language learner, this type of approach bothers me to no end.

Learning a language is _not_ like learning math. Yes, there are rules, and if you learn enough of them you can construct valid sentences by translating words from your native language and adding in the necessary syntactic filler, but you will not actually learn that language. Languages are greater than a sum of their syntax and grammar.

If you really want to learn a language, you need to listen to A LOT of source material and start speaking it with real people and forming relationships in that language and its cultural context.
>Perhaps for certain personality types, misplaced conviction will put you on a higher velocity trajectory toward truth than honest confusion.

The key part of this sentence that makes it true, is the "for certain personality types".

Contained to the VM itself, yes? I've never seen any information on packaging a GUI and making it presentable to a user. For example, what if I want to style/brand it to not look like Pharo or a smalltalk VM? How limited am I with that?

> If you mean accessing data from the filesystem, yes that can be done as well.

How? I've never seen it explained in a book, but I could easily have missed it. That's more of what I'm talking about though. For example, how do I read / parse a CSV for the computer? Or better yet, download a CSV from the internet and then parse it.

I'm aware of this because I know there's a web framework. I think there's an entire book on this for Pharo.
> After all, wouldn't you expect most digital ports to be binary: either be plugged in or not?

No. USB-A plugs for 2.x have 4 contacts that extend close to the outer edge. USB-A plugs for 3.x have additional 5 contacts close to the inner edge. If you don't insert the plug fully, you physically just get a USB 2.x connection. Nothing magic there.

There are more subtle problems with 3.0.
Especially interesting since it is technically the "intro" or "B plot." (Most of the series is a mini-version of The Right Stuff.) But the first third of the series is an oddball fusion of an office sitcom with a "dirty jobs" style documentary. (That is, JANITORS IN SPAAAAAAACE!)
This breaks most people's brains because there WILL be games where the host can't show a goat in the third door. That has to be accounted for.
Yeah, I talked to a lot of couples and am totally aware it's hard to explain your own language or teach a language if you're not a teacher.

I actually even know cases where language teachers that failed to teach their own language to their partner.

So I'm more gearing it for having your partner act as support, practice, clarification, and reinforcement along with prescribed self-study. And also just make it fun!
It’s not regardless of what came before. That’s like saying, if there were two doors and Monty simply tells you which one the car is behind, there’s still a 50/50 chance of each door being right. No, there’s a 100% chance the one he told you is right. You learn real new information when Monty opens a door just like when he tells you something.
Pretty much every description of the Monty Hall problem has the same flaw, and it is here also. The problem as given does not describe the general rules by which Monty operates. It describes only a single round of playing the game.

Thefefore, Monty could be using the strategy of "if the player chose the car door, open a goat door and give the option to switch. Otherwise don't give the option to switch and the player wins the goat." In that case switching is a losing strategy.
