I wouldn’t think of it that way! Think about the control you have now.

My mother was so into sugar and had other medical issues and had all her teeth pulled and dentures by 35. I was born into an extremely high insulin environment and was morbidly obese by 8.

I just hit my 4 year anniversary of carbohydrate recovery and I’ve made super significant change in my weight, cholesterol, A1C and tons of other unmeasurables.
(Spyder maintainer here) I don't understand your comment. Spyder is like any other regular Python package, so it can't take over your computer. We have some customizations to run code, but that's to provide a better experience to users.
I have seen plenty of obese childhood friends transform themselves into thin people through discipline and hard work. Is it harder for them to keep the weight off than for other friends who have had six-packs since 10? You bet. Are they doing it anyway? You bet. Am I one of them? Not at all :)
> Most psych facilities are over-enrolled and have no interest in keeping people around

Seems you didn't read the linked buzzfeednews article.

If you read it you'll notice that many hospitals work fine -- but there's one particular psych facility company that abuses the system, Universal Health Services, or UHS.
Machine learning is almost magical in that way: complicated, contextual evaluations of things can be delegated to a black box, and since there's no longer a human people can get angry at for a contested decision, emotions aren't as high and the company can just shrug its shoulders at that silly little computer. It's a cheap way to abdicate moral and social responsibility.

It's one reason that AI ethics is a broader field than people worrying about the existential risk of AGI breakout.
The way I've seen other people try to combat it is by taking the "commit early, commit often" thing to an extreme with small commits. My manager likes sub-100 line MRs, which gets restrictive in more verbose languages like Go. It would be hard to find more than 3 flaws that are serious enough to need review in that little space.

The tradeoff is that now you're constantly reviewing code where you have no idea how it fits into the rest of the design, which I find a lot less useful. It's good for catching things that a linter probably should have caught anyways, but it's really bad for critiquing how concurrency is done or other higher level constructs.
Lack of response by police is expected, warranted, and even desired if the reason for this lack is that they are neglecting property crimes to prevent violent crimes elsewhere.
Very confused why they're not trying 42 first.
>Do you realize how much damage that would do if my children cannot even research things related to themselves?

I think a more likely reason they won't be able to research things related to themselves is because the term "teen" is also banned by that filter (assuming they are around that age, of course, which could be a completely wrong guess on my end).
My first response was "Sweet, Starlink in a mobile phone!" but this is just VoIP over the existing Starlink dish, which, while cool, is not a huge surprise. SpaceX has not shrunk their receiver into a mobile phone [yet]. As someone who frequently goes out of cell phone range, I would love to see something like SPOT or inReach over the Starlink network instead of Iridium, maybe they can bring the price of these services down a little bit more.
but why is that even there? I guess that's just another reason to stay with emacs...
I wonder why?
The Darwinist in me, honestly, welcomes the death of foolish men by their own hand, who would opt-out of a life-saving procedure for but a dislike of it's name.
It was a great learning experience for me too.

It's just not user friendly.

It was my first experience with linux in 2003, going through some 80 page wiki to get things configured and built. Learning how to configure an fstab file.

Hostile as in everything requires following a multipage guide of commands and manual configuration that often didn't quite work. Also when I asked on the forum I was told they didn't want more users, but more skilled users (I was 12).

So not really mouse clicky, more that basic functionality takes enormous effort to get working and the community at the time wasn't great.
Yeah, I use Firefox and every time I see these pessimist statements like “omg i have to open a site in Chrome _constantly_” I shake my head.

I’ve not touched Chrome in years, on Windows and MacOs, and I surf my fair amount of the wavy web. I even uninstalled it on my personal laptop. If one in a billion sites doesn’t work in FF (which, again, has not happened to me in years, except for intranet sites meant to work only with IE6...), just have a dedicated launcher for it, or even better tell their support you’re dropping them because of that. And if that broken site is a Google property: it’s well-known that they do it on purpose, you’re literally giving in to the school bully shaking you down for lunch money. Grow a spine.
I have such good memories of watching this now and then on rainy days in elementary school. Always loved it. Paddle to the Sea was another one we saw often.

My wife bought me The Railrodder on VHS many years ago and I still have it. First thing I did was to make an MPEG version at work to save. The VHS has only been played once.

Now YouTube has it on my main page all the time and I've introduced it to my own kids.
I said that the immune system can cause damage. Vaccines have a very high safety standard as they are given to large numbers of healthy people, so the tolerance for serious side effects is very low. So the development there is very careful, and anything that looks too dangerous is hopefully caught in animal experiments or at worst at phase I.

A well known example of how dangerous the immune system can be is the following phase I trial:

https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/nejmoa063842

That drug caused a cytokine storm in the participants in the phase I trial.

Allergies are another example of how dangerous the immune system can be if it is triggered against the wrong targets.
Our current approach to is very similar to the native Jupyter experience where notebook contains multiple separate cells. You can manipulate these cells with shortcuts or mouse. It looks very similar to Jupyter or JupyterLab.
At the same time, if you open a Python script, you'll be able to use cell delimiters (aka `#%%`).
I used to have it enabled to block certain social media websites. It is unfortunate you can't just block websites without also enabling the adult content filter, especially since the adult content filter has many false positives in my experience.

I have a hard time seeing how they won't be. They have name recognition. It's like the kleenex of DNA testing. The SNP chips they use are cheap at scale. They don't need to spend money on innovation, they could continue just running SNP chips priced above cost indefinitely. Consumers don't understand the current technology, they aren't going to start one day clamoring for long read sequencing or anything that requires 23 and me to change anything at all. IMO, it's the perfect cash cow business.

I am a minority and I absolutely agree with you. Our society is filled with people who find absolute glee in rushing to call racism because it gives them a sense of moral superiority and a feeling of belonging to a community, in this case the SJW cult. Many of these people know nothing about real racism and are quick to denounce others without giving them the benefit of the doubt. It is really harmful to healthy discourse and really dilutes the definition of racism.

EDIT: Looks like I've already struck a nerve. Feel free to tell me where I was wrong and provide a counterpoint. I increasingly believe the concept of downvotes for comments is harmful to healthy discourse.

The documents themselves are lost, but Ellsberg was deeply involved in nuclear strategy and in the past few years has been able to get public declassified sources for much of what he remembered. The previously-classified history of US nuclear strategy is mostly what the book is about. (See my cousin comment for a short outline.)

Broken windows policing doesn't directly address crime rates, it artificially inflates the levels of perceived crime in order to boost police reputation through reported statistics.

Real crime rates have been falling ever since they started measuring it, and there is no demonstrable correlation with increased police presence or strength/brutality of their weapons.

That's a pretty shitty thing to do, in my opinion. Guilt tripping isn't the right way to go about this. If you want your cake and to eat it too, then use a license that expects financial compensation from commercial uses.
It's worth pointing out that, post-firing, the present tense doesn't really apply to Timnit Gebru...
In my experience, police are more likely to focus on corporate property crimes than violent crime. It seems to be a sick game of incentives gone wrong... the police department just needs to grow, so it needs more money.

So it protects the corporate taxpayer over everyday victims.

That's mostly true for what the kid eats, but not really how much the kid eats. Childhood obesity is largely genetic, the correlation between an adoptee's BMI is stronger with that of their biological parents than with their host family.

I think section 230 should be modified to explicitly provide protections only for platforms that ban all moderation that isn't related to security or the most heinous of illegal content such as CSAM. Any platform that bans for ideological reasons should not be shielded from liability when they get it wrong.

I think it is also important to advocate for decentralized, federated communication channels. Increase the total number of possible points of failure, and they absorb the load in a more graceful manner.

Yes I have this discussion with other people. You can interview and just.. not take the offers.

The last couple places I left, I had offers up to a year or two before leaving but weighing cost-benefit, stayed at that time.

It's better to have the option than not. And interviewing is truly not that much work. You don't have to be perfect. The less you need the job, the less the interview process should stress you. We call this "opportunistic interviewing".

You can emphasize to the recruiter/HR/interviewer when pressed that - actually I'm happy where I am at the moment, but I am always up for a conversation and this sounded like it could be an interesting opportunity.

You may find companies even respond more favorably in the interview process to you when you are somewhat aloof in this manner. You will also make connections with companies who may touch base from time to time to see if now is a better time to make the jump.

This is infinitely better than having zero leads and feel like your life is going to hell before you even start looking.
The book is mostly about that content, which has been largely declassified now. It goes into quite a bit of detail.

It was not just MAD. It included massive retaliation against every city in both the USSR and China in response to minor conventional battles, which they calculated would also kill most people in Europe from fallout. It gave independent launch authority to regional military commanders. First strike was part of the strategy, and was threatened on multiple occasions.

The US has still not disavowed first strike.
sounds like the answer is "no."

we have good evidence that partially hydrogenated oils are directly responsible for cardiovascular disease, I believe. "High healthy fats" diets? Probably not as much of a well-studied link there.

I would 100% agree that a high-sugar low-fat diet is more dangerous than eating high-fat low-sugar, but high-fat high-sugar is a hell of a lot worse than either of the other combinations - and a more common diet in the population at large. That's probably more relevant to this study, as limited as it is.

Standard MAD* was insane already. The governments of nation states were willing to toast the human race to preserve control by the elites of pieces of land and the illusion of a nation. They still are.

Even if you are taken over by a dictatorship, you can struggle against it afterwards. Some dictatorships were even somewhat positive (e.g. Napoleon Bonaparte) even though I would have sided with the pro-republican movement. There's no future if everyone is dead.

* The funny thing about MAD is that even though it's standard terminology today, that was the name coined by its detractors.
What about the other people around you?
The author of the article bends over backwards to make an incredibly weak and muddled argument for racism, before using a term that many people, including people who are the demographic focus of the term, find racist in any context. It's an absolutely terrible article.

The filter is racist because the term being blocked is the result of an underlying bias in the data that has racist origins: the fetishization of Asian women. (That block may have a real impact on people's lives. A young child searching for 'Asian history'; or a teen searching for 'Asian takeout' won't be able to find what they're looking for, which could impact Asians directly. I don't know specifically, and a real journalist would have found some real life examples, tried to get data to measure impact, etc.)

I don't agree with the author that this is 'insulting' just because it happened; or that Apple (or anyone) need necessarily hand curate the block list. (Maybe they can automate a filter list for their filter list...) I think the problem is that Apple was informed of this problem over a year ago and has neither discussed nor resolved it. That problem is, at best, only hinted at in the article.
Not eating memory like it's candy for starters.
This is the problem I have about people who leak documents. They have an agenda and so only release the parts favorable to their bias rather than the whole archive. What was held back from the story that there were documents that showed that the US government was actively trying to get out of the war via back channel negotiations.
I think this is the same trick I eventually (too late) found to make my model tractable assuming a bivariate Normal. It certainly hadn't been my first instinct to consider rate of change with respect to correlation.

Speaking as an outsider, what’s interesting to me is that this seems inevitably true, but at the same time afaik we don’t really see it in the historical record. So, why? Why don’t we seem to have vocabulary for this from before WWI?

That opens up a whole can of worms about what kinds of sources we have, their POV, contexts, etc. But even if you can go digging around for subtext, you’d think you’d find something explicit somewhere. I certainly don’t have an answer.
