Ah yes, few users. Which is why this post was on top of HN frontpage.

And yes, definitely it's just that it changed the development workflow slightly, not at all that it brings new possibilities and a much better developer experience.
Most of the content in Facebook Groups are walled off, not searchable and left for a long death.
Reddit is the only place which still hangs around reminding me of the forums but the way Reddit org has been operating it’s not long time before they wall off the content too. They already require signing-in to even view content for several subs.

Edit: And dev.to is not bad for developers community either. Stack Overflow even though is better, it’s not really community like a forum.
Most likely I would revisit the memories/things that made me happy and try to be a saint or a demon to those who truly deserve either.
I side with you. However in FB groups you don't have to deal with so much spam and attacks.
There's a million places to discuss politics online if you want to.
I would say the times tables is a good example, once you know the mechanics of multiplying 2 numbers you don't need to redundantly memorize the exact values of tables of numbers. The mechanics and how to solve for it are the important pieces to learn. Further I think it actually does more harm as it hinders the child's ability to look at numbers as placeholders and variables when they get into higher level maths. Spending so many years on the basics of mathematics could be speed up if we ensured that children fundamentally understood the mechanics and principles and then moved on to more interesting math like algebra and geometry. Where you can see more real world applications by applying them to easily solve those word problems that we all hated as children. We really don't do a good job of teaching children how to think most of it is teaching them how to memorize. It's the whole concept of cramming for a test, memorize it just long enough to get past this test, then let it fall out of your brain.

I don't even know where to start with english and literature, I just muscled thru those but man that was like death to me, just not my interest at all. It's very evident in my writing that I was not very attentive in those classes. Thank goodness for spellcheck and a very pedantic highschool friend that did not mind proofreading and shaking his head at me, after each paragraph.

Within home schooling communities, Singaporean style math has quite a following. Singapore also tends to score quite high on international exams. Basically, they focus on fewer topic more deeply. They also teach from concrete to abstract. I wish American schools would adopt this.

I don’t disagree with that, though it’s much easier to get started today than it was five years ago. The point I’m trying to make is that I don’t think the solution to the problem of not making what feels like meaningful progress over the course of a few years is to only dabble with self-contained puzzle exercises. It’s certainly helpful, but there’s no substitute for just building a complete thing, provided you can get through initial on-boarding as you’ve highlighted.
Do you need to have the watch open to reprogram it? I don't know why it wouldn't be able to do that wirelessly.
I personally like standardrb (https://github.com/testdouble/standard). It is a set of sane defaults that I agree with mostly.

Standard was also complaining a little but omitting the explicit else branch made it happy.

Anyways you can customize RuboCop to your likings, use standardrb that comes with a lot of carefully considered defaults and uses RuboCop under the hood or don't use a linter at all and move on with your life.
I loved to see this from students talking to professors while studying CS. I think it has to do with the ego boost you get from acquiring the "power" to code rising above mere mortals.

Unless you are a psychopath, you will realize later in life, that there are actually other smart people, who might know something you do not. Even though it often times feels like you are surrounded by idiots.
Good defaults are important. It is more difficult to find an agreement over changing a default than configuring a missing configuration option.

Last time I raised a formatting change with our team, I got replies like "the default settings have been agreed with the community"(a blatant lie) or "I wasted enough time in my life discussing formatting" (okay, this guy has to write C# mostly, the standard formatting is already a lost cause there anyway).

The BBC has also commissioned a bus ride and a reindeer trip as well as the canal boat in the Youtube links above, under the series name "All Aboard!" - the sleigh ride is very good for a Christmas background and is on DVD.

They also have a series of shorter progrogrammes following the creation of an object, again without narration, under the "Handmade" series.

All great ambient slow TV.

> Of no one will ever agree with every choice made by a linter, whether default or customized.

This comment comes with the the smell of the idea that there is a right and wrong way to format code, when in fact with, Ruby at least, there's a lot of nuance that can be added in the way the article describes.

There are legitimate reasons for expressing the same functionality of code in different ways to express intent, something that Rubocop unfortunately isn't able to judge.

> I would rather work in a team that agrees to follow some set of conventions than than one in which everyone does things the way they prefer personally.

These aren't the only two options, there is a middle ground, in which you use cops that solve problems that are unambiguous, such as tabs/spaces for initial indentation, which brings me to the next point:

> For the examples in the post, by all means discuss as a team and agree to exclude them.

My main problem with Rubocop (which is a great tool) is that everything is enabled by default (and this seems to be encouraged) and the tool is overused. To me Rubocop smacks of the classic programmer problem of discovering you can do something, and so applying the solution to all the places the solution can be applied. "Because we can, not because we should".
Because (if) it can. You know there was a time when Russia/SU annexed Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, right?

Cool... so Disney's stance is "we think we don't have to pay you for your work, if you disagree, you can sue us, but mind you, we have lots of lawyers and very deep pockets"?

Probably this wouldn't work as well for smaller publishers, who have less deep pockets and who authors could boycott for such shenanigans, but still very worrying...
Yep. Had exactly that experience this week. They're trying to teach my youngest how to subtract with carry. Now I taught her the column method about a year ago but she's not allowed to use that suddenly due to a new idea they have. Not a single one of the children understood it so the teacher went back to column method a couple of days later having pissed the time on that attempt out of the window. This sort of stuff happens very regularly.

Fashion is exactly it. I feel like they experiment on them rather than use established methods.

Dusk is an amazing game. The gun, movement and general mechanics of the game are solid. The action is solid and the level and enemy design is great.

There are quite a few “wow” moments in the game.

For those that like these games I also recommend Amid Evil. The game is excellent and well worth a look for many of the same reasons.

Some of the other “boomer” shooters have been a bit hit and miss. Ion Fury was good but Tbh is a bit easy. prodeus is okay in bursts and wrath of aeon is solid but like the original quake can get a bit boring. Some of the other FPS games in the same vain have been "I've played it for a day and probably won't play it today".

These days I am playing Doom mods via GZDoom and there is soo much there now you could just play doom mods and never play anything else.
> Nonsense.

All the attempts to gamify learning math, or teach it by passively watching TV, suggest otherwise.

> more effective

Sesame Street is probably the most inefficient way to teach arithmetic ever devised. A kid can watch 1000 hours of it, and barely be able to count to 10.

We know how to effectively teach math. Present the concepts, follow up with the student working through progressively harder problems.

> And there most definitely are differences in effectiveness

Since the needle hasn't moved on results, we've likely found the optimal method.
Exactly. It is not about the technical or physics, it is the way they deal with it, and how they handle it. And Tim Cook was blaming the user for not reading the release note of an iOS update. ( He did it in one of the many TV Interviews )

The only thing we got out of this, is the Official battery replacement from Apple are now slightly cheaper at $69 for iPhone X+, and $49 for iPhone 8 and below.
Absolutely not. You probably won't understand 10% of what you read. Better: go to your local university library, check out a good medicine/biology textbooks, and read that. Then go read the papers.
Can you (or anyone) recommend a good one? Thank you!
Of course they're not improving. The US education sector is like the US health sector - a device for increasing shareholder value among parasitic corporates, not for providing an effective public service.

As a result it provides vanishingly poor outcomes which keep the US below the OECD average, in spite of some of the highest per-student spending in the world.

Education is highly politicised, managed by school boards which seem to attract religious kooks and other low-quality authoritarians with eccentric ideas, and which does almost everything it can to discourage good teachers and other suspiciously well-educated and competent individuals from joining or staying in the profession.

Widespread poverty in the US population doesn't help.

Changing how math is taught won't address the essential dysfunctional broken futility of the system as a whole.
It's so annoying to have Facebook pop up those login notices whenever I try to look up something there. When I'm mapping local shops on OpenStreetMap sometimes the only contact info available is on Facebook, and sometimes they do have a proper website, but it doesn't show up in search engine results and I can find the link on Facebook.

Forums are just, well, messages.

In the old day there was fidonet. It was wonderful, grab your messages and read off-line.

Then came email which was much the same, most people used POP and later IMAP. Now we have facebooks and reddits (or Lemmy).

How could/would you pull the messages and read offline if you wanted? How would you search your archive of posts for that thing you said two years ago and want to copy/paste?

This is why I still participate in mail lists, all things I said are in a mailbox archive that I read with mutt, it is so responsive and easy to search. Plus, when the online mail list archive dies (as it has in the past), I have this mbox.gz that I can push somewhere else and the new host has an immediate archive.

Message boards provide an online interface so people can get posting right away, but there are some technical lists out there that are still heavily used. Most people have email accounts, so I don't see why they're not used more frequently, maybe most online webmail things suck, for me, mutt creates a better experience than reddit or fecebook. I miss bluewave a bit though.

> I resent the dumb propaganda that is served to us and has no basis in reality

I suggest ignoring "geopolitics", and considering to what extent your input matters even in local political matters. If you find that such impact is minimal locally, then from a political consideration, it is a waste of your time to spend energy on "Russian threat" or any other geopolitical narrative (many dating to 19th century.) You should focus on your local issues.

Geopolitical policy is opaque to uninitiated and uninformed. It is not clear to me why the elite make a show of discussing geopolitics for the public at large. Join CFR in a meaningful capacity and you may get a whif of what actually are the dynamics and issues that drive international relations.
> I stand by my characterization of Breitbart though - they absolutely knowingly lie about facts.

I can agree, once I did my own research and found them misrepresenting facts; during the refugee crisis, a Breitbart headline said something along the lines of "x hundred thousand crimes committed by refugees in Germany". I looked at the source/googled the number and found the source government press release, it was the number of people entering the country without permit, of course that's against the (German) law, but a refugee has to per default do this to enter somewhere and claim refugee status (unless they're the kind of refugee that could get plane tickets to a destination country willing to issue them entry visas -- but surely no EU embassy thought "Ah here are some Syrians wanting to visit as tourists for a week, give them visas.").

Obviously the Breitbart article didn't mention this detail, leaving the details of the "crimes" committed to the imagination of their readers...

Numbers, yes, but also quality. The T-34 when it appeared shocked the Germans. While it had significant flaws the basic tank characteristics like armor, firepower and mobility were very good for the time.

The Germans thought so highly of the T-34 that they thought of cloning it, but came to the conclusion that designing a new tank to counter it was in the end a more feasible idea. This process eventually resulted in the Panther, often thought to be the best tank of the entire war. Although in practice it was beset by reliability issues, and of course it was too little too late in general by then.

Getting back to the original topic, the lesson seems that for tank vs tank combat, large numbers of good enough tanks win the day. Now, the T-72 did disastrously poorly in the Gulf war, but OTOH apparently 'domestic' USSR T-72's have better armor to begin with than the export versions used in Iraq, and further upgraded ones with more armor and modern sensors might be a much harder nut to crack.

I think student-led education is a useful model: where students have a say in what they find important and in their own education. (This applies for all children, not only for adolescent boys)

The curriculum has too much influence from adults whose goals (sometimes openly stated!) are for a compliant labour force with a reduced training cost on particular work-focussed skills.

That's at the expense of (for example:) relationship and mental health education, creative arts, critical thinking skills, financial education, talent development, practical entrepreneurship, and the idea that children can have and create value in their own right.

As such, this is regularly a complete mismatch to what's going to be useful to kids when and as they grow up, and kids often know it: even while they don't have the political power to make change.

Yes, in some point in the future though the amount of output data from GANs trained on Human Data will surpass the amount of output data from humans directly.

When that happens people will start training GANs with GAN data.

It will become a self feeding loop with humans only curating data.

Of course even the curating of the data is ripe for automation via ML.
It's not just the corporations and the elites. It's the people working at these companies, and that includes many HN contributors.

Would they vote en masse to form a Union to stop these issues arising in the first place? Personally I doubt it.

It seems to me that many people are happy to take the large pay check every day, and see themselves as "the good guys" (as everyone does) because they donated to Biden and attended a BLM march or put pronouns in their bio.

Yet the homeless problem outside their front door never seems to get better, and they have terribly paid and horribly treated people working in their own company, and they seem (from the outside at least) to be doing very little about it.

Of course Facebook is just one of many companies with the same problems. And the political Left abandoned the working class a long time ago. It's a systemic issue.
> flirt with it on and off for years

These hit pretty close to home. The thing is, at any given time I either don't have an actual project I'm eager / able to start, or if I am motivated to "get stuff done" then I don't want to complicate the effort with something new so I reach for more familiar tools.

Long division perhaps does teach you how to follow a complex algorithm by hand, but it's not at all necessary for the math curriculum at any stage from K-12 up to university.

It's somewhat out of fashion because a good sense of number is just as useful for dividing by hand, and more useful for understanding what's going on (plus, you do now always have a calculator in your pocket).
