> The best thing to me even at a game is to go, hang out, relax, talk shit with your friends, and watch the game. Not have the game take up all of your attention.

If the sport is actually engaging and doesn't stop every 2 minutes then you'll find it naturally takes up all your attention.
I looked through your links, and I saw that it was renamed from Mezzanine, so there's at least one more discussion:

> Setting IT maintenance as a core strategy, rather than something that serves a strategy, is complete death. Employees better hope they like the dead end career they have at such a company, because it’s going to cut them off from any lifeline to relevancy.

I think you have it completely backwards. As an example, having competency maintaining core banking systems is a far safer career long-term than working at some fancy crypto fintech. Work on stuff that's actually important, don't waste your best years on the hype-train of the season headed nowhere.
The othe document one should put next to README and CONTRIBUTING is CHANGELOG.

Way too often I find this document missing. Especially in the rust ecosystem: I see some crate bumped their version number, but no info about what changed. (And no, a git log is not a good substitute)
I really was disappointed by the XFL getting nerfed by the pandemic. Some of the new rules for them like an option to score up to three points in a PAT would lead to all sorts of cool game theory analysis.
I originally mentioned ladder logic briefly, but I figured nobody would be familiar with it, so I cut it out. The documentation discusses ladder logic a lot (as you remembered), and how to convert from ladder logic to the MC14500B:

I really liked this post - but a huge part of the game that the author didn't mention is that there are almost two related games being played at the same time - the meta game by the coaches, and the actual game by the players.

Before each play is run, the coaches decide the personnel package - which players from their team should go onto the field, based on what they predict the opposing team will do. If the offense runs out a jumbo package with a lot of larger, slower players who are good at blocking and the defense runs out a dime package - smaller, faster players to defend against a pass - the offense will likely win on a running play, but lose on a passing play. That is, if the players execute. Personnel mismatches are often exploited for big gains.

Then coaches also typically call the plays, although more experienced players will modify the play on the field based on what they see. NFL playbooks are incredibly complicated with hundreds of plays, which can each be countered with the right defensive play. Coaches are guessing what their opponent will do based on the situation, dynamically adjusting their play calls throughout the game, and setting up deceptions that build throughout - for example, one of the most common deceptions is a "play action" that is fake run passing play, which only works if the team has been consistently calling running plays. Coaches must "invest" in running possibly unsuccessful plays that set up deceptions, and then cash in at the right time. Successful trick plays are often the result of running a play multiple times earlier in the game (or even, earlier in the season!) and then modifying it for a surprise.

Great players will look for clues for what play their opponent is running, to exploit it. Some of the greatest quarterbacks - like Peyton Manning and Tom Brady - are more successful because of their ability to decode the defense before the ball is snapped, modify the play at the line of scrimmage, and know in advance which receiver is most likely to be open, than because of their athletic ability itself.

I think that "nerds" who don't follow football could appreciate the strategic game that coaches are playing just as much as the physical game the players are playing. For people who dislike football because of how it stops and starts, well - between the plays is when the coaches are playing, and it's just as exciting once you start to follow along.
Same issue in boxing: bare knuckle fighting leads to less concussions than boxing with gloves.
Browsers send requests for favicons for pages in iframes even though they are not showing them.
I'd be down with the war on disinformation if it were universal and equally applied.

But how it apparently works in practice is the powerful routinely engage in disinformation while accusing those who point out hypocrisy, ineptitude and corruption of the same.

Given this, I'm immediately suspicious any time the topic of disinformation is raised.
The multiple teams with many different positions means that many different body types are needed, which allows a wide range of people to participate and contribute. Although rugby for instance seems pretty cool, the players are all built like NFL linebackers so it's not something that I could ever play with any ability. Football has a place for small, fast guys and slow, fat guys (and girls) along with the superhumans. The deep and subtle complexity means that at basically any position, intelligence and/or intuition can make up for having less physical ability.

It's also great at teaching teamwork and good sportsmanship. If it weren't for the concussions, it would be the perfect sport for building character in school.

*Experiences will vary with the size of the school and the program there. I'm sure there are plenty of 5A schools where you have to be a superhuman to play at all, but there are plenty of schools where normal people can make the team with some effort, and not a few 1A/2A schools where anyone that can walk makes the team.
I never suggested they're doing it for their fans. They're doing it for the money and fame, or rather the perception of the same, given that the average nfl player doesn't actually make that much over their very short career but pay back dearly with problems all through their life. Basketball players also mostly end up bankrupt after their careers, but at least their brain is intact?
its exactly like how chinese human rights abuses bother the americans n europeans. the chinese always say thats interfering with their domestic policies.
This is all valid points, except we can't predict how fast the number of qubits in a quantum computer will grow. Moore's law, even for classical computers, is just unscientific, in my opinion.

Also, quantum mechanics is not only about making computers faster, protocols safer, simulations and measurements more precise.

Quantum physics can shift how we view our reality. It can make possible what was unthinkable and unimaginable. Quantum teleportation, counterfactual computation and communication, quantum pseudo-telepathy and much more is just magic for a "classical" observer.
There is so much beauty in the game of football.

It's filled with the best athletes colleges can produce for that particular sport. The worst football player on any NFL team is probably better than the best football players from the college that he attended for the previous few years.

One thing people don't realize is that these athletes are running as fast as they possibly can, especially the wide receivers. That means the cornerbacks/defenders are running as fast as they can as well. When there's any sort of separation between the wide receiver and the cornerback, that is extremely dangerous. That separation can't be made up, because they're already running as fast as they can. That means separation is an opportunity to target the wide receiver. When the quarterback throws a football with a window of a few feet to a wide receiver 40 yards away, it's simply beautiful.

There is a perfect balance between offense and defense, and there are always trade offs. Both offense and defense are looking for mismatches. Thus, if you have a wide receiver that is faster than cornerback covering him, then you have a mismatch that will be taken advantage of with impunity. So instead, you need to double-cover him with a safety playing up high. But then that leaves one of their offensive players poorly covered. How do you make up for that? You blitz with an oversized number of defenders so that you give the quarterback less time to find an open man. Or, if you have a mismatch on your defensive line, and they outmatch the protection for the quarterback, then that also gives the quarterback less time to make a play.

So you can counter that by bringing your running back or tight end to provide extra blocking. But then that limits the number of targets you can have.

There's just a long list of pros and cons to this game which makes it utterly fascinating. The players live and breathe all of this stuff.
Hybrids are false flexibility because if the government posts the national guard to close gas stations, hybrids can only go a few miles or less in some cases on electric power. Electrics can charge at home or at friendly places along the way and with long range, but for hybrids, with 2-30 miles of range, it’s not going to help.

At worst a hybrid is basically a gas car with naive virtue signaling. At best it’s a slightly more fuel efficient gas car.
No one watching it is racist for doing so, but to deny there's no racist undertone here is just trying to live under a rock. Especially after pointing out the stats.

It's not just that feature, though. I wouldn't (in fact, didn't) buy a Tesla because of the whole attitude to the control system: let's put everything on a single screen in the interest of aggressive design minimalism. Their approach to self-driving scares me witless. I hate the childish easter eggs and the gimmicky doors. I love the EV technology, but I really dislike the car they've wrapped around it. That new feature is just another example of the general approach.

I ended up with an EV that is just a normal car that happens to be electric, and it's great. I'm in the market for another EV now, and despite the fact that the Tesla X is technically the best solution for what I want to do (towing) it's not even in the running because of all the rest.
ha! now the "matchup" makes sense to me, thanks for that simple example.

I watched soccer all my life until 2020 I started watching NFL games and it felt like I needed a mini-bootcamp to learn about the game before I start appreciating it (still learning!) beyond the athletic display.

I get turned off by the stop and start aspect though, especially that they jam in the same ads over and over for 2+ hours, so I guess it's a lot more fun to watch in the stadium or simply watch replays w/ ads stripped off.

I'm very much looking forward to watching my first Superbowl today!
Milano is at almost exactly the same latitude as Trieste. Perhaps you're trying to make some point that Trieste is on the adriatic sea so it feels more like southern europe.

My point was not climatic though, but as we were talking about sand dust carried by the wind, the presence of Alps makes definitely a bigger difference than 50km (the south-north distance from the line Trieste-Milano to the swiss border).

The same Alps are what make Ticino climatically quite diatinct from the northern part of switzerland (the mountains affecting climate)
Haskell in REPL:

Of course using the "group" function instead of programming it myself is cheating a bit ...
It was a great sight: of course after that everyone was washing their cars, outside tables etc.
I love how it's turn-based. Everything is purposeful and strategic with football. Whereas games like hockey and basketball are very fluid, the strategy is more vague. There's a general sense of what you want to do, but it depends on a lot of factors. You could technically have a player deke between every player and score a goal or basket, but that would essentially be impossible in football.

With football, it's a reset every down, and everyone is ready, so the strategy is critical.
I do not think people are confused, but the plants that are trying to be something they are not.

Those white kids have lots of other opportunities, the black kids do not.

The racism isn't in the sport per se, it's in the society that makes the (dangerous) sport one of only a handful of options for some groups.

I hope not! I'm probably the person with the least skin in the game tbh - just a visiting Indian student for whom the entire thing looks like a documentary if anything. If there's a reason you think my statements might be biased, I'm all ears! I did point out why the other side (football lovers? White people? Suppose there's some differences!) Might be biased, viz. Growing up with (mostly watching, not playing) this sport all their life. It's understandable to feel offended, so I'm not offended if this offends you or anyone!
Where I grew up, corporal punishment was the norm. If I misbehaved at home, I'd have to fetch "the whopper" which was a thick leather dog collar.

If I misbehaved at school, I'd get a caning (bamboo) or hiding (short length of hose pipe).

I was never abused. Boundaries were always known, and the punishment for crossing them also known. If you got in trouble.

I mean... you do something cheeky, and the punishment is a bit of pain for 10 seconds. That was always much much better than being told how badly you'd disappointed your parents or teacher.

I'd take a hiding over a telling off any day.

FYI, my partner was also beaten as a child, but she'd vehemently against corporal punishment now. Our children are being raised without the cane.

I think in volume the cost can come down. As nice as the idea of solar is if you remove it and just plug into the city mains the cost of producing the units can come down.

I’ve lived in high-rise buildings in Seattle where the walls were effectively soundproof. Your neighbors could be as loud as they wanted to be and you never heard them.

From what I understand the lack of use (in the US) is largely due to carriers being reluctant to enable direct FM receivers on the phones on their network. Can’t charge data when the customer can get free FM.

Discontinuation may also be due to the requirement of using headphones as the receiver antenna.
I tend to take position that history is made by the present “victors” or “powerful”.

Right now, Hitler was evil, Jesus was good, Ghandi is good, Rome was important, Greek philosophy matters, etc

But in some future time or different place, history is different. Columbus used to be a hero, now he’s a far more controverisal figure. Maybe some fascistic future would see Hitler cast as a hero much like George Washington. History will have changed.

The past happened how it happened, but how that past is filtered and turned into the narrative we call history happens in the present
The FDA approved propranolol in 1973, but not for treatment of hypertension or angina. It wasn't until 1978 that they allowed beta blockers to treat those diseases (which are the bulk of lives saved by beta blockers).

The WaPo article does talk about a study that had just concluded, but Timolol had been studied for over a decade previously, and had been used in Europe for years. I didn't have to look hard to find a US study done in 1976 that praised Timolol's effectiveness in protecting cardiac muscle after a heart attack.[1]

If you doubt that Timolol is far more effective at preventing heart attacks than propranolol, then why believe the rest of the WaPo article? It references a study that you can't find on the Internet because it was published over 40 years ago.

The bottom line is this: Despite the drug being considered safe by the relevant European authorities, the FDA forbade US doctors from prescribing it. Had the FDA simply allowed doctors to prescribe compounds approved by their European counterparts, they would have avoided tens of thousands of deaths.
