In my experience, pretty much every single Windows emcumbered IT department I came across lately [1] switch off Powershell on their servers "for security". Every single setup involves circle clicking your way through >20 year old windows UIs. There's absolute no change if everyone involved has their foot firmly on the brake. Powershell and WSL are nice, but if pretty much every corp puts a lid on them, you're still stuck in yesterday's Windows hell.

Am I the only person who, while reading the article thought it odd that the examples of her facing "sexism at every turn" were just that all the maritime workers are older men with different mentalities (understandable since it's a dangerous, lonely job and mostly men do almost all dangerous, lonely jobs) and that the general society still looks oddly at women who leave their families and work alone at sea?

Perhaps she is just generalizing? If we took her words at face value as being what the paper described (sexism at every turn), then would that mean simply being an all-male space is inherently sexist?

The adjective 'beautiful' for software is increasingly becoming a turn-off for me. Perhaps with the exception of Sublime Text, there is no software that I routinely use for its pleasing aesthetics. I'm more interested in fast, intuitive, pragmatic software. Beautiful makes me thing that other, more important things have been given lower priority.

What exactly makes Clayoven beautiful? It seems to have a great niche purpose. Shouldn't the first adjective be something related to what math users would value?

Parent comment is a summary of the video.

> Avocado seeds are largely mono-embryonc,

Pollen carries genetics. Avocado seeds are a blend of
genetics from both parent trees, instead of being clones of the mother tree.

In (many) polyembryotic plants, the mother inserts multiple clone alongside the (usually single) sexual embryo. (Interestingly, the mother can't produce seeds asexually, but can insert asexual embryos into the sexual seed.)

Do you believe that there’s a perfect mapping between ‘jobs that people want’ and ‘representation in those jobs’?

And if so, how do you account for the fact that a) people working in the industries themselves cite that there is work to do on gender diversity and b) that the disparity remains even when you control for manual/heavy physical work (i.e you account only for people working in desk / design based AEC roles)?

> What I was trying to say is that bash scripts are superficially simple but their behavior is hard to reason about.

But the counterpoint is that this is dependent on situation, and if the behavior you're trying to "reason" about is better captured by the operation of tools like "find", "objcopy", "openssl", "nc", "rsync", etc... than it is by a Python library-based attempt at the same stuff, then putting that behavior into a shell script is a net win regardless of "complexity".

The "Metaprogramming" section of Advanced R by Hadley Wickham is a good introduction, although it emphasizes the author's own library and their own (intelligent but opinionated) approach, rather than the core language primitives: https://adv-r.hadley.nz/metaprogramming.html

There is also Metaprogramming in R by Thomas Mailund, which seems good from the preview material I was able to find: https://www.apress.com/gp/book/9781484228807

For really powerful demonstrations of what R metaprogramming can do, see the Dplyr and Data.table packages.

Personally, I've used it to implement things like shorthand lambdas, the Clojure threading macro, and a function composition operator that constructs and evaluates an expression of nested calls to keep runtime overhead down to a minimum.

R macros are sometimes more powerful than true Lisp macros, in that there is no separation between the macro expansion phase and code execution. This is possible because R function arguments are lazily evaluated. The argument is a special "code object" that represents an expression. If you want to capture or change that expression, you can do so freely inside the function. So there is no need for macros, just functions that can capture unevaluated expressions.

Incidentally this also makes R very hard to optimize, since any function can do this at any time.

There were 81 papers in total, of which only 9 were prospective studies. All of the studies were in the area of medical imaging.

The study design often meant AI performance was exaggerated. For example, the human comparison group averaged only 4 doctors (too small!). Often expert and non-expert performance was combined together — making the expert group perform worse on average.

The reporting quality of the papers was typically pretty low, with low scores on the CONSORT and TRIPOD checklists. Papers often made claims of being better than clinicians in their abstract, without including the appropriate caveats.

Most of the studies didn't have their code or data publicly available. This raises questions around whether the research can be reproduced by other scientists - a key principle of science.

Adapting the Project Oberon compiler code generation isn't that difficult, but the devil is in the details :). My student Rikke described some of the challenges porting Project Oberon to RISC-V in her project report (https://github.com/solbjorg/oberon-riscv/blob/master/report....).

I assume that the most time-consuming task to get Project Oberon to run on ARM/Raspberry Pi would be to write device drivers for more complex devices, e.g. USB and Ethernet. These could be written in Oberon (which would be a considerable effort) or possibly be abstracted by using a bare-metal hypervisor that supports VirtIO device abstractions, e.g. Vmware ESXI. This way, one would only have to implement VirtIO drivers in Oberon, which is considerably less complex.

Connecting a PS/2 keyboard and mouse instead of USB might also be an alternative, since drivers for PS/2 are far less complex: http://www.deater.net/weave/vmwprod/hardware/pi-ps2/

> Celsius, the triple point of water zero is a great reference for lab work, it doesn’t have any particular relevance to deciding what to wear.

Uh let me do some primary school math for you:

>30 Degrees Celsius: hot/summer weather.
20 Degrees Celsius: warm spring, t-shirt weather.
10 Degrees Celsius: light jacket.
0 Degrees Celsius: literally freezing. Winter clothing.
-15 Degrees Celsius: requires heavy & layered clothing to avoid hypothermia and/or frostbite.
-30 Degrees Celsius: arctic gear.

Look, the turning point between light clothing and winter clothing is literally built into the system: 0 degrees is the triple point of water as you said so yourself. There are many arguments why the US hasn't seen a wide-scale adoption of metric temperature, but I'd posit that "objective ease of use" isn't it. You lot are just used to a legacy system with all it's warts and it's more convenient to go with the joneses than try to force change. I think trying to advance arguments how it's more convenient is a fools errand because it's literally just force of habit.

I can promise you that the various feet, inches, fluid ounces and other shenanigans are mind-bogglingly confusing for anyone who is used to metric. Doubly so given the very annoying ratios that emerge with square/cubic/volume units.
Super fascinating. Wasn't aware that the suggested CO2 tax was this high. This is the order of magnitude we need to aim for, in order to make CO2 removal and reduction of CO2 emissions properly profitable.

I get the impression that the tax is to be levied on the entity that emits CO2 to the atmosphere, not the fuel producer?

What's also encouraging is that it's the right party fronting this suggestion. It's not a fringe left-wing environmental party.

In the age of online mobs it's probably very commendable for the news outlets not to throw anybody to the lions, especially since in this case the responsibility seems difficult to establish. Is it the fault of the captain? The Egyptian pilot? Some technician that caused directly or indirectly a blackout on the ship? The Egyptian authorities who authorized the ship to cross during bad weather? Etc...

It's a very good thing that the media was more cautious IMO. And conspiracy theories don't need anybody feeding them, you have armies of losers online doing nothing but making that stuff up 24/7.

I don't think there's anything "strange" going on (a rather conspiratorial wording in and of itself IMO), it's just that it's very hard to place the blame with the information currently available, especially since all the first party sources have a very strong incentive to push a certain narrative.

The Costa Concordia on the other hand was much more clear cut and you had the extremely embarrassing recording of the coast guard telling the captain to return to the ship and him cowardly refusing to do so. There's no such thing here as far as I know.

Doctors are too expensive and there are too many gaps in social safety nets that allow some people to access medical care who otherwise couldn't. Sometimes people who can access medical care have had bad experiences with doctors. I think most people who go to woo, life coach hell, and different medical traditions were driven there by terrible doctors or desperation.
Not to mention the multiple outright disasters that happened exactly because they don't have a good handle on using the appropriate units...
No other ships were impacted by the storm. If the captain was a European or American national he'd be all over the news. His identity is newsworthy. My guess is that the Western media is having trouble confirming the identity of the captain and/or finding any details of his identity.

Ludicrous acronyms shirk efficient reasoning.
Both are assumptions about the future. Neither is falsifiable at the moment of speaking. What would be falsifiable is a statement about the historic rate of change.

I agree that it's generally more likely that a 15-year trend will continue than change. If we're talking about a year, that is. But 5 years? 15 years? 100 years? 1000 years? At some point, the general assumption changes.

But without trend data, I also agree that assuming price stability a better general assumption than assuming a major price drop. Historically, very few things keep getting cheaper. It requires a) large society willing to keep making R&D investments, and b) a technological domain with a lot of possible ways to keep lowering costs.

And what I mostly agree with is the proverb, "It is difficult to make predictions, especially about the future."

As far as I know, Cloudflare transparently redirects some Tor users to their own hidden services and then uses the circuit ID for rate limiting: https://blog.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-onion-service/

"Some" because they seem to have internal heuristics for detecting Tor Browser users before they enable that feature for a connection, so it doesn't apply to all connections made through Tor. YMMV I guess but I haven't seen a Cloudflare CAPTCHA over Tor in a long time.

An alternative interpretation is that the media is a reflection of society. If people weren't looking for bullshit articles to click on (actually, not even click on, they usually end up just resharing the article on social media for the headline) to artificially confirm their biases, then the media wouldn't be making bank on this strategy.

Also, the media does not exist outside of society. The media sucks because our culture in general sucks.

Same thing with politicians. We don't get shitty politicians out of nowhere. They come from the people, they optimize for what people want, and people vote for them.

It can be tempting for others to try to call this an example of the Prisoner's Dillema, but the Prisoner's Dillema doesn't apply because there isn't even a marginal upside to "defecting" when your counterpart "defects". We're personally better off when we choose to not participate in this stuff, regardless of what other people do, and we're all more better off as more people choose to not participate.
