Salt water is denser than fresh water. The displacement of the Arctic ice is less than the displacement of the water contained in that ice when it melts. So the sea levels will rise. Though, that's not the only problem...

Think of the Arctic as exactly what it is, a giant ice cube, keeping your drink (or, you know, the world) cool. The smaller the ice cube gets, the smaller its effect on keeping your drink cool. When it's gone, your drink quickly goes to room temperature. It's highly unlikely that we can survive like we currently do without the Arctic. Sure, the ice might come back in 10 000 years or so, not particularly useful to us in the short term though, is it?

And the problem isn't that the Earth goes through natural cycles of cooling and warming, it's that our actions are accelerating the warming of the Earth, meaning we've got even less time to figure out how we as a species would survive the natural heating of the Earth.
Everybody that I know pronounces it this way, but I could be wrong. If you could send me a bug report with evidence, I'd change it.

I have long thought about a web site that contains mathematical pronounciations. A person could click to hear a native German speaker say Entscheidungsproblem, for example. I've never seen one, although I have seen a book online along those lines (written by a blind mathematician?).
I would hope one would always more than think about security or privacy when implementing a public web site.
To be fair, they aren't day traders. Day traders are people who trade on extremely short term basis (ie within the Day) often by doing chart analysis or breaking news. Her parents are buying good companies on hype during a bull market. It's definitely risky but its not the same as day trading or option trading for that matter. They are likely up quite a lot if they had the foresight to buy in when the market fell. They just need the foresight to get out before a correction happens. And its only 15-20% of their assets. Doesn't sound like the worst strategy to me.
Perhaps an even better example is Wikipedia's article previews - enormously helpful when reading through a long or technical section.
Ok. Except they happen to be the billboard of the world

Size matters. A highway billboard and a world billboard are not the same. Thats why we have antitrust laws. Microsoft doesnt get to do whatever it wants just because its a sovereign company. Twitter Goog Fb should not leverage protections originally intented for sites like HN
Both Altera and Xilinx were on TSMC. Altera wanted an Edge over Xilinx, at the time Intel was committing ( on paper ) to their Custom Foundry. Altera switched and bet to Intel Custom Foundry. Nothing ever worked out with Intel Custom Foundry because they were not used to working with others on Foundry Process. Intel thought the problem was with Altera not being part of company and they had too much cash so they might as well buy them for better synergy. And it did, getting internal access seems to have ( on paper or slides ) speed things up with product launches and roadmap, until they hit the Intel 10nm fiasco.
It's amazing that a repository like this is even a thing. A demonstration that you don't need 3 million dependencies and a giant framework to build a simple application in the environment where a language was created to support.
There's no paywall on the article? Unusual for WSJ. So I read it!

I have no problem with what her parents are doing. They're only playing around with 10% to 20% of their wealth. This is what Jim Cramer calls "Mad Money", which originally was the whole premise of his CNBC show of the same name. (That show has since morphed a bit in style).

The idea of mad money is to be allowed to go crazy and speculate with a relatively small portion of your wealth. If you're having fun with that, maybe you'll also keep doing the research to keep up with the relatively boring rest of your portfolio (such as index funds and blue chip stocks).

You need to keep reminding yourself all the time that you could lose most or all of the crazy speculative money. Because there's a reasonable chance that you will. I watched this same thing happen during the dot com boom of the late 1990s. When it was all over, many companies fell by 90%. Many others just simply disappeared.

There's no harm in buying Zoom at the start of a pandemic. Sure you're somewhat dependent on the "greater fool" to take you out of your investment, but at the moment there seems to be no shortage of those.
There is no single "freedom-to-roam law" but many laws codify exceptions to keep freedom to roam legal. The main codification seems to be that you are allowed to infringe on others' exclusive rights to their property (outside their yard and plantations) as long as the harm is minor: wearing down surfaces by walking and cycling on them, flattening grass and meadows by (briefly) camping on them, picking berries etc.

Here's a good treatment of the relevant laws, published by the ministry of environment (in Finnish): https://helda.helsinki.fi/bitstream/handle/10138/38797/SY30_...
Right, I wonder if using IPv6 link would be enough. It would have a lot of space for differentiating the user, and they may not do much pre-processing on it...

Of course, were WWW browsers like a lot of other softwares are, there would be a SRV lookup of the domain, plus the protocol and transport, and the deployment flexibility would be in that mechanism. (-:

Besides the security questions people have already talked about, there's a sizeable number of non-technical people for whom "www" signals "type this into a browser address bar", whereas the plain apex domain doesn't give that context because it's also in your email addresses, other subdomains etc.

I don't think many people get seriously confused by it, but accessibility is for everyone and it just makes it that much easier for people to know what to do.

There are, but Go's type system doesn't really accommodate them very well. `interface{}` tends to abound, and it tends to feel less magical because you're still generally wiring things up yourself (i.e. you still have to explicitly unmarshal the request JSON).

In some ways, that explicitness is better because you know what's happening. In other ways, I'm incredibly tired of typing out 'if err := req.Bind(myStruct); err != nil { return err }'.

> When XML was invented I was sure it would change the world (and arguably, enabling RSS/Atom did), but now in 2020 you don't hear much about XML.

XML is a data-format, not an enduser-format. It's used everywhere, what is there more to hear about it?

> All word processors should be hierarchical rather than monolithic (linear)

No, they should not, it's just a pain. Word processors have hierarchical view, but enforcing it would be a harmful. In the first place, word processors are not note-systems. It's not their job to manage your files.
Julia is improving, but I wouldn't compare it to BLAS/LAPACK, cuBLAS is a much better comparision.

PyTorch uses tensor cores, supports mixed precision multiplication and bfloat16 representation.

Julia's implementation in CUDA.jl doesn't even use shared memory, which is important, as using that 10MB cache can reduce the needed main memory bandwidth significantly.

Also the new 30xx NVIDIA series supports sparse matrix multiplication, which is great if you have ReLU operations in your data processing for example. I'm not sure if PyTorch has support for that, but I'm sure it will be added, just like how mixed precision multiplication was added this year.

We're talking about an order of magnitude difference if you add all these small things together that PyTorch / cuBLAS supports. Of course Julia can call into these libraries, but then all the nice optimizations that make Julia Julia go away.

I had to think really hard of these things actually, because I love the Julia language, but the more I see ML pipelines beating the previous state-of-the-art models by 5x, the more I understand why an interpreted language with a great linear algebra library won the data processing race (I wish it would have been Ruby though).
The House’s economics became even more contentious when Whiteread won the £20,000 Turner Prize for the work (the first woman to receive the honour), and then £40,000 from the rebel K Foundation (composed of members of the defunct pop group KLF) for the ‘worst artist of the year.

I remember that! The KLF wanted to make a point about money in art or something so pledged to double the Turner Prize money to whomever wanted it as long as the artist admitted they were terrible. They paid for advertising slots during the award ceremony on British tv.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/K_Foundation

Whiteread initially refused to accept the K Foundation prize, but after being told that the money would be incinerated, she reluctantly accepted, with the intention of donating £30,000 to artists in financial need and the other £10,000 to the housing charity, Shelter.

It was around that era that the KLF/K Foundation burnt £1 million as a statement/art performance
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. When this was first done I instinctively hated it because of how much the art world fawned over it, but I've really come to appreciate Whiteread's work, even if she's a bit of a one-trick pony like Philip Glass.
In fairness, Koch/Dinkins-era NYC (the 80/90s) was pretty gnarly, with far higher crime rates than today, so I'm not surprised your mom was worried. I also had free reign of my suburban NY neighborhood, but no way my parents would have let me go explore the city solo.

Yes, AFAIK there is no local payment network in Finland (unless it is completely hidden from users and merchants somehow), and Finnish cards are definitely not co-branded.

The Nets rate for non-Finnish in-EU debit cards is 0.51% and for non-EU debit cards it is 1.71%, and +0.80% for corporate cards (all 2017 rates and for Visa/MC only).

That's the example I was thinking of, I'm quite happy with government concerning itself with regulations on options, etc, working closely with the food industry, and perhaps I'm alive only since no free marketeer was around to introduce an unconditional $10k fine per malicious tampering as a way to improve security during the painkiller scandals.

Naturally, if free marketeers had created a market for food tampering that encouraged industry collusion with criminals instead of law enforcement, they would tell us it was an inevitable development and they are getting us the best outcome of many bad new realities.
I'm optimistic... not so much because of the merits of the acquisition but moreso because of AMD's history with strategic actions. ATI kept them afloat through a CPU performance drought, and divesting globalfoundries secured necessary liquidity. These two alone essentially saved AMD, so I've got faith in leadership being able to make the appropriate strategic maneuvers.

But maybe I'm being overly optimistic. (Probably because—disclosure—I'm long AMD. Been long for years.)

Wow, $120 for a premium shift today is so much cheaper than 10 years ago. I could be wrong but I remember reading back then cabbies we’re paying around $220 and in some cases not even getting a cab to drive as they were all taken.

> is there a word for a note-taking tool where every bullet is a nested note, and they can link to each other?

Org mode works that way, as well as supporting the one-note-per-file paradigm. It's a very flexible tool.
I have a table which contains all the distinct tags which have been used within the document, along with a count of how often they've been used. Clicking on the tag-name shows all the places it is used - via org-tags-view.

I guess I call it a tag-cloud, even if it isn't formatted like one would imagine on a web-page.

No package, just a bit of lisp-magic. I'd be happy to share an example if it were useful.

> Use of x.509 user certificates to access many government services online

You are right. That's the part about "easy tax collection system, and many other public technologies".

But, even in big cities, the people with money are technology uneducated. Many of them tried to move to tech before the dot-com bubble. But to move money from hosing to tech was the worse investment ever. 5 yeas later the tech stocks were worthless while housing was booming. Bad timing, but the result is that investors saw tech as too high risk, and hosing as a safe ever increasing investment.

> Spain has also some of the poorest regions of Europe

That is true, but I do not see that as part of the problem. Madrid and Barcelona are in the top 5 metropolitan areas of Europe. There is limitless potential in that cities.

Mainly foreign investments is using that potential. That is the reason I moved to Sweden, I wanted to be closer to where the important decisions are taken. And Swedish companies are really kind on empowering employees, it is way worse with countries were top down management is more prevalent.

The poor regions are going to need help form the most developed ones. But, that is not possible if the economy of large cities is also based in tourism.

Remove London from the UK and you will see what I mean. The UK is a rich country, but it starts in London. Spain is poor because Madrid and Barcelona (and other big cities) are not using their citizens full potential.
Eh, it just strikes you are super exceptional because you know the country well. People living in Japan are equally annoyed by "wacky Japan!" stories about people renting family members, buying used panties from vending machines and going to giant penis festivals.
No, that's a misreading of the Popper quote.

Intolerance refers specifically to those people who fight for their views with means outside of civil discourse, i.e. violence and intimidation (1), thus destroying the possibility of civil discourse.

Deciding who these people are really isn't a hard problem in practice; a democratic society would have no problem with it.

(1) Yes, intimidation can be "just words".
> But "Follow the Japanese art of forest bathing" is a much better headline than "try going for a walk in the forest".

Though poorly-worded, it can challenge us to look at mundane things with a fresh point of view.

Yes it's still a simple walk in the forest. No, there's no magical Avatar-style glow of light envelopping us and varying with each step we take in the forest.

But in a world where everything is edulcorated by marketing and by superlatives (think Instagram "perfectness"), it can be easy to loose sight of how wonderful a simple walk in a humble forest can be.

The same trail in the same woods will never look the same twice. Same trees that don't move, yet things change in subtle ways with both fauna and flora which evolve within this life-sustaining playground.

I have never heard this described as "the Japanese art of forest bathing", yet that describes a walk in the woods rather well.

Of course, like any new novelty that comes our way, it's always possible to just cargo-cult it because it sounds cool and not realize what it's trying to get at. And you are right, this is further encouraged by the wellness clickbait. But I'd like to suggest it's possible to look beyond that.

I have debated this. I was actually going to formulate mine into a pre-processor so that if I can change a macro it will retro-actively update the other ones. I thought it would be useful for this, and for structs that I want to replicate for various types.

That's very true and why I avoided subscribing to magazines and other news sites. I ended up creating a category for them in my feed aggregator (self hosted FreshRSS, I'm quite happy with it) and masking them in my main feed. This way, I keep my curated and "slow" main feed, but I can dive into the big list of articles I receive from those magazines and news sites whenever I want.
I think they saw the house as being bad art in general.

"Houses are traditionally considered a symbol of the unconscious, by filling a terraced house with concrete and then removing the brickwork shell, Whiteread showed herself to be intellectually, creatively and emotionally blocked — something that is evident in all her 'work'."
The ONS in the UK has been doing some very good work tracking prevalence in the community (and because they understand the statistical processes they're using properly, they update the estimates of past prevalence too). Unfortunately the ONS data is not reported as often in the press because it's updated only weekly, whereas test and trace-based absolute numbers are reported daily even though they're close to useless for population-level or region-level analysis.

Unfortunately there's no similarly reliable source aimed at understanding prevalence and spread in institutional settings I'm aware of. This is a particular concern given that institutional settings encompasses hospitals and care homes, where a large portion of the most vulnerable are.
You'd think that institutional investors would be happy to have a rush of inexperienced traders to take money from.
The added noise is strictly to the benefit of institutional investors.

Hedge funds pay absurd amounts to trade against dumb money. Quants were suffering for years when vol was low. Meanwhile, big guys (pensions, endowments, banks) literally couldn’t care less what noise is in the market.

This is why you can trade for free: because your (very short term)-stupid decisions let someone else make money.

Yeah, no.

Start doing outdoor stuff in mild weather (probably summer). Buy a used tent, decent shoes and any jacket on craigslist or shady sports outlet or whatever. Get into it. See if you want to go mushroom foraging, hiking, camping, boating, shooting wildlife, skiing, climbing or whatever. Then you can start spending disposable income on the stuff you fancy (or not).

It does not surprise me to find the notion that you best start with an electric Ford truck, a second house with all amenities and thousand dollar Patagonia gear, but that's really not required to incorporate some friluftsliv in your life.
Spanish bodies rarely manage their information systems themselves - this is not just related to police, all public servants work with applications built by private companies.

Usually, consulting firms such as Indra and Deloitte build and maintain them after getting publicly available contracts.

You make a good point because Spanish public servants have probably never had their own systems hacked, since pretty much all the stuff they use has been built by consulting firms or contractors.

I am sorry you have to deal with this co-worker. No one deserves to be treated this way. I agree with other responses here that there isn't anything you can do to change his behaviors since the boss doesn't care. The only thing you can do is leave.

I disagree with any advice on engaging with him at all. As a victim of emotional abuse myself, I think the best way forward is to completely ignore him as best you can - there is nothing you can ever gain from trying to talk to him (except for the bare minimum required for work). It is so tempting to tell him what you really think but trust me - he is better at being a jerk than you are (he has a lifetime of practice) and it will probably backfire.

Try to get a new job and maybe when another 5 people quit the boss will realize that there is a real problem with your coworker.
