THIS. My father believed children should never be given a short answer, or told "because I said so". If we wanted something we would have to give a rational argument why. If we asked a question and he wasn't sure of the answer, he would say he didn't know and we would go to the encyclopedia together to read the full answer.

Every night from the time I was 6 we had to read 50 pages in a book he assigned and discuss it. This was after he came home from 10 hour days at work.

Most parents are (1) too lazy to properly explain things to their children, (2) unwilling to say when they don't know the answer, (3) lack the critical thinking skills themselves to evaluate statements, (4) lack the basic research skills needed to validate or invalidate a proposition.

That is the problem in America.

When I was about 8 years old we were riding in the car with a couple my parents were friends with and their children who were similar in age to us. The son asked the father why the sky was blue. The father turned around and said, "well, it reflects the ocean". I said, "no, you're wrong, it's the color the atmosphere refracts light" (or something like that). The father and son both stared at me in shock because I would tell an adult they were wrong. My father just laughed.

I don't think I was necessarily smarter than other children by nature. I was just brought up with the idea that it is everyone's personal responsibility to read, to learn, to say when you don't know the answer, to find reliable sources. And above all, never to memorize answers without fully understanding them.

Which is why I love writing code ;)
Funnily, drinking ayahuasca often actually has a reverse-tolerance effect (ayahuasqueros tend to be incredibly sensitive to its effects)
> The laws and road design are usually sufficient if the driver is doing their duties correctly and responsibly.

Here is where the problem lay! Expecting drivers to always be attentive, lest they kill someone(or multiple people) is not a sane way to reduce traffic fatalities and injuries. You stated it yourself that driver inattention / error is a contributing factor in most crashes. In NYC, driver inattention / distraction and 'Failure to yield right of way' are the two largest leading causes of pedestrian and cyclist injuries and fatalities[0].

Sure, better education can reduce the likelihood a crash happens, but it does not reduce the severity of a crash when it happens. Reducing the severity of crashes means designing infrastructure that keeps the most vulnerable road users safe.

> I believe fatal accidents are required by law to be extensively investigated

I can't speak for most places in the USA, but in NYC this is entirely false. There are many instances of NYPD showing up to fatal crashes, asking the driver(who just ran someone over) what happened, and then just taking their word for it. It usually takes a team of lawyers at the behest of the family of the deceased to actually gather evidence[1][2]. A councilmember in NYC recently proposed a bill to get NYPD out of crash investigations for this very reason[3]

The bank would be forced to sell it or keep paying the 5000 tax at that point. Which would circulate housing faster through banks. It might even make banks be willing to work for better payment plans for the people owing debt.
> The real question is, why would they lie about this?

Because a public story completely unconnected with the facts give your adversaries no information about what you've actually worked about the attack.

Why would you use that particular story may be a harder question, but a robot attacker might have a better propaganda look than something revealing, say, betrayal by agents within highly-trusted security services.
Personally I dont / cant remember my dreams. I very rarely have one, sort of like once every few years, but when I do, I wake up, try to think about it, but it was gone within 1 min. So one time I voice-record everything with my iPhone the moment I was awake.... when I replay it nothing make sense, and there were lots of details missing. Basically I couldn't remember a thing. But when ever dreaming happens it is very tiring. As if like your brain had no time to rest, but it is a very very rare thing to me.

One of my friend has similar problem to yours, sort of like dreaming every night. One of the few thing she find very useful now is to drink a little bit of Alcohol / Red Wine before she sleeps, or do Sports that actually makes you sweat during the day. It seems your mind will spend all the energy on repairing your body then bothering to dream about something.

I would recommend looking at the PSIO if you're wanting to mod a PSX today. It's a bit on the expensive side, but it allows you to insert a SD card instead of having to use CDs. Over time discs degrade and become unusable, as well as the optical drives of the playstations themselves.
Are you serious? How come? What are you missing?
Sure, but all of those things are considerably better now than at every point in history, the fact you'd write this even ...

Do you realize that up until about 2 generations ago that nobody had fulfilling work? That work was just labour? 3 Generations ago you worked on the farm, or in the factory, or keeping the shop for meagre wages. In 1960 only about 8% went to university. In 1900 it was probably only 1%.

Literally we live in a world where people can be or do anything they want. This is the first time in history this was even thinkable.

'Having no prospects for retirement' ?? Retirement is a modern concept. 1.5 Generations ago you worked, retired and very quickly died! You lived a few years maybe and that was that. And there wasn't much in the way of support, expectations, or even things to do. Government workers expected 'full comp' in retirement because they only lived a few years. The notion has changed dramatically and it's why our finances are so out of order. You do realize that 'social security' is a very modern concept, right?

People are living literally '3rd lives' now, decades into retirement, and generally much more fulfilling.

'Healthcare'? We are only 2 generations into socialized medicine! Again, the fact most Westerners have access to great healthcare, most of their lives, means they are living at vastly higher standards of living than in any era.

My grandparents were born on farms, with no plumbing or running water, and not electricity. Taxes were extremely low, and most people didn't go to high school (my grandmother did). There was no social security/insurance/retirement. There was no socialized medicine whatsoever. We were barely into having antibiotics. People worked hard and died at 65 from the large variety of ailments which we can now treat, push off, work around etc..

And finally - home ownership - again - a very new concept, only a couple of generations in. 'Retail Banking' is a very modern convention to the point wherein 'owning your own home' is really a '1st generation' concept even in parts of the Latin world. 'Home ownership' was largely driven by 'new world' ideals (US/Canada) where the land was not spoken for - which was a major political idea.

'Social Isolation'? Try living on a farm, where there are
almost no cars, and it takes 1/2 day by train to get to the nearest 10 000 person population centre. We are materially less isolated than ever before.

I don't doubt the notion of feeling isolated, but it's almost as though we need to chose our words better, because whatever we mean when we say 'isolation' it's literally not that, but I agree it's a growing problem. I suggest it's a growing problem of people not participating in their own cultures.

Unconditionally, life is materially better. Whether life is better overall, that's a hard thing to say, but we are undeniably 'rich' as a class of people (anyone reading this). We have the gift of massive surplus and bounty, it's now a matter of being able to socially make do with that.
And that is revenue. Guess margins is the main question.
How about Windows? Did someone force you to buy a computer to develop for it?
I think this a contributing factor, but not the whole story. Another part is in order to switch to arm64, your entire software stack needs to support that architecture. If you are using linux and open source software, you'll be fine for most, maybe all of that stack, especially if you are willing to compile things yourself. But it just takes one component to block the transition.

This isn't really a problem in this case.

Housing in Vancouver is _incredibly_ expensive, and there's a huge amount of foreign ownership by rich people that leave the dwelling empty all the time, or maybe only live in it for a few weeks or months per year.

If someone is wealthy enough to own a property in Vancouver and not use it more than half the year, I don't have an ounce of sympathy for them being taxed for that. If they don't like it, sell the property, and rent an absolutely beautiful AIrbnb or house for the times that they are in the city.
Yeah heat and battery life are non issues.

The iPhone is a good example because supposedly it's the fastest, but it doesn't feel like it. Maybe it's the animations, maybe it's the annoying Apple popups to sign in and update. Whatever the case, it doesn't make for a great device. (My experience is from 2018)

Crafttor – Figma Plugin
In addition to what the other user said, people don't always have as many alarms installed as they should. There should be at least one on every floor.

But besides that, sometimes the fire just starts in an area that doesn't immediately set off the alarm due to whatever quirk of the floor plan and the passageways. If you're a heavy sleeper, and alone, in the time the alarm takes to wake you, the fire might have grown from that spot enough to block an exit.
How would you explain it then?

I don't believe Tesla would be valued so highly or fluctuate so violently if the market was actually efficient.
If this was a correlation study I could agree with you but more accurately I would instead posit that no hypothesis is confirmed. But this is a study about a deterministic mechanistic action.

We know that DMT binds with sigma-1 receptors (S1R) which is known to promote neurogenesis, such as fluvoxamine (in addition to many other SSRIs) in humans; we further know that the medication causes neurogenesis in humans, as do other medications with S1R affinity[0].

We then know that DMT does as well, we then measure that neurogenesis is observed in mice due to the same exact mechanism as SSRI's (i.e. medications with S1R affinity) in humans.

Perhaps at some point we should realize deterministic action in the context of the mammalian brain over human exceptionalism.

> If the government's goal is to reduce water usage, then all they have to do is increase the tax.

A better way, that most governments in fact use, is to set performance standards that manufacturers of water-using appliances must meet, and progressively tighten those standards. Low-flow shower heads, aerating mixer taps, garden irrigation controls, low water use washing machines and dishwashers, and so on.

(And: tighten standards on local authorities/water utility companies also. Between 10% (in rich first-world cities) and 70% (in cities with colonial-era infrastructure) of water is lost due to leaks in pipes or pipe joints.)

If you wanted to go all big brother meters could be adapted to reduce flow rates after a certain daily consumption limit is exceeded.

A second possible alternative to taxation is "cap and trade". Every household gets a yearly allocation. Households wanting to use more buy part of the allocation of those that can use less. (Or grandparents donate them to their children while the grandchildren are at home.) Over time the cap reduces.

Both of those methods have less impact on poor people than simply increasing the price of an essential good.

Edit: all of this is fiddling around the edges when it comes to water, because the big consumer is agriculture. And governments almost without exception subsidize agricultural water consumption in one way or another. If they stopped doing that and imposed performance standards as with domestic usage, then agriculture would use water more efficiently.

But the water thing was just an example. For carbon taxes, the price increase has to be noticeable to the end consumer and explained as being due to carbon content, and reasonable alternatives have to be known to exist. (Which they now are, thanks in the USA mainly to Tesla. In Europe, there is public transport, and better urban design e.g. in Hidalgo's Paris.)

What bit us specifically is that we ran our cognito instance in us-east-1, which fair enough sounds like an unstable region and we’re going to move. But as far as we can tell from the docs, cognito does not have multi-az support. Has anyone else figured out a multi-az auth strategy?
It's important to a lot of people. I get that I'm in the minority here, but I can make it on the leaderboard a lot of the time if I try. But trying to get on the leaderboard stresses me out and ruins the fun, so I instead do things like start a bit late to sabotage myself.

I still make it on the leaderboard sometimes if I get too excited about starting right away or if it's a particularly hard problem and I get lucky figuring it out. That stresses me out a bit. I'd be happier if the leaderboard weren't there.
You are indeed correct, but 1999 is more "late 90s" and by that point the Macintosh (and Mac OS) had become vastly more powerful, with the PowerPC G3/G4, color graphics, GPUs, etc., not to mention advances in the web platform.

Note I said "Classic Macs" (think compact Macintosh models with 68000 processors) rather than classic Mac OS.

By 1999 the shift to OS X was also underway, with Mac OS X Server 1.0 released that year.

If you live in a city with a large homeless population, I think it would be interesting for you to go and talk with them.

I live in San Diego, and I've talked to hundreds of homeless people while doing volunteer work and photography. You would not believe how many people, though they may be mentally ill, are smart, honest, good people, who just got fucked by the system. They're out here scrounging for food and getting Hepatitis A and dying in the canyons and not getting any medical or dental care, and their lives are incredibly hopeless.

To take the Steven Pinker-ish approach, and talk about about how great everything is, comes off as ignorant/dismissive of these real problems. I'm not saying what you're saying isn't true, but the average person is (relatively) not better off than 50 years ago. See https://wtfhappenedin1971.com.
You're right, it can easily be four times as expensive. Or even impossible.
I used to think that our body know better. But I realise it doesn't do what is better but rather what it is used to do.

I felt I had to eat sweets frequently, drink coca-coca everyday and 3 meals a day etc. My body felt terrible when I didn't. I stopped listed to what my body wanted and consciously stop those things. First week it was really painful. Second week I got used to. Third week I completely changed. Now I have to force myself do eat sweets, drink soda or having so many meals a day.

I still listen my body about drink water and not sure if I should really listen it when it comes to sleep.
In the short term, yes it's a good thing that automatic bug fixes and enhancements happen. But in the long term it incentivizes shipping unfinished, buggy products. It may be a net positive, but it is not an unalloyed benefit.

Since Fox News started fact-checking Trump, Trump's followers have stopped treating Fox News as a reliable source and are voting with their feet towards OANN another very far right sources. They're clinging to lies (politely: disinformation) even in the face of evidence to the contrary from a source that they formerly considered reliable.

That is my point.

Conservatives (or, at least, Trump followers) will turn their backs on sources of information that they considered trustworthy if those sources contradict the leader de jour.

It depends on your "Just". With Wordpress I "Just" use Dreamhost and do a one-click install.

The trick with Wordpress is to accept that somethings wont be as slick as if you spent $1-10k of your own time building perfect static site generator and customising it beautifully. You have to do what most non-IT people do and make do. But I feel like I rarely have to make do with Wordpress - I can get speed, I can customise a bit with PHP sometimes (although I avoid that) and there are a tonne of plugins.

You can build many "no-code" level solutions in Wordpress for free.
The example, of opening a package of dates, is actually pretty complex task even for humans. A child or even an adult with weaker fingers won't be able to do so.

There are plenty of kitchen tasks which are way easier for robot, for exampling making a bowl of cereal. Which brings me to the second point. You say:

> The only viable hardware for a robot meant to do any task in human spaces is an adult-sized humanoid, with two-arms, two-legs, and five fingers on each hand.

but I think this is only true if robot is constrained to using tools designed for humans. In the strawberry example, the knife is designed for multiple fingers, and cutting board has no elevated border to work well with the human knifes.

I think a properly designed "kitchen arm" (with maybe compliant/under-actuated fingers, a few sharp blades, a vacuum grip, etc..) as well as robot utensils (like uneven cutting boards that the food does not roll off from) would allow robots to do a large fraction of the kitchen tasks.

And maybe your bag of dates would be cut open instead of opened nicely -- but you'd still get to eat them.

It's good author wrote his own static site generator. If he implemented using restructured text specification it will be future proof and maintainable along with using multiple tools like pandoc, sphinx, pelican, nikola and obviously python docutils itself for generating different format outputs.

Eventhough markdown is popular, its not a standard speicification. If author wanted to work with something which works for generating output for a website, pdf file or an ebook, he should have looked into a proper standard like RestructuredText (RST).

I think rst is much cleaner and better specification than markdown. Given its a specification there are multiple implementations available. So may be community should adopt it with more open arms. Still wonder like xsd vs relaxng in this case also markdown being inferior implementation without specification is winning over rst (restructuredText) format and specification.
AMD laptop chips are pretty decent: you can find laptops/ultrabooks for about $700 running on a Ryzen 7 4700U. Based on a vs comparison on CPU Monkey it looks like it gets about 80% of the performance of the M1, though only about 25-50% graphics. However, you have much better ram & storage options, all at a lower price, and the graphics are still 2x to 4x better than Intel's on board graphics.

It's just one datapoint - there are plenty more. Simply speaking, when they are the underdog and have to attract developers, they open up; and when they don't need it, they close doors. That's just what they do, it's a perfectly rational strategy (if cynical). They are hardly the only ones at this game, Microsoft does it too. I am just pointing out that promises of openness with Apple typically come with an expiry date.
