There is a great "origin story" for "Mathematics: Its content, methods and meaning". Kolmogorov initially read a great deal of mathematics by reading encylopedias like one by Brockhaus and Efron. ( see, e.g. Tikhomirov "The life and work of Andrei Nikolaevich Kolmogorov", 1988 Russ. Math. Surv. 43 1, Page 8) This contributed to his great breadth of knowledge in mathematics.

He later felt that the encylopedia articles were too brief, and must be somewhat more elaborate. He spent a great deal of effort in "The Great Soviet Encyclopedia", and wrote some classic articles like the one on "Probability Theory". Later, with other distinguished mathematicians like Ladyzhenskaya and Sobolev, he formulated the great tri-part volume "Mathematics: Its content, methods and meaning". Great for a budding researcher in mathematics.

A modern successor to this kind of effort is "The Princeton Companion to Mathematics", which is an encylopedia of mathematics for the mathematician.

Another historical anecdote is Kolmogorov's famous visit to India. I have heard Soviet mathematicians who were students at that time, asking excitedly about his visit, like did he have to sit on top of trains? Kolmogorov laughed and said that the trains were quite comfortable. An amusing pic has Kolmogorov in dhoti and kurta, with the Indian statisticians standing around him with pants and shirts: [1]

> horrible consequences for both women and society at large, as those 4.9% of men essentially have harems of short-term relationships because they can, and the other men can just play video games

People who have many short term causual relationship have those because they want short term causual relationships - both men and women. They are not the same people as those who seek long term relationships. They have neither values nor interpersonal skills and habits for them.

The woman who supposedly enters the dating you talk about would had exactly same sex life and exactly same low quality relationship if she went for a gamer. Except maybe less fun as you don't get to have fun with someone who plays LoL.

Is it, really? I don't think so, at all. I mean, no one ever complained about webview-type apps because of the virtual dom. Ever. It has been known for ages that the myth about the virtual dom's so-called ineficciency barely fits in the realm of microoptimization.

I was deaf (0% hearing) between 3 days after my birth and my fifth birthday, when it was possible to surgically correct it. I still had to learn hearing afterwards, had to relearn my own native language, and to this date I still rely on lip reading for many things.

I also happen to have bad vision and can't see much at all without glasses.

Neither of these are "differences". They're something I have (or had) which is "less" than the average person. I've got less dimensions of sense.

The point of the finer, pedantic questions of English fluency is to be a marker of social class.

It is, in fact, perfectly understandable to say “less errors” rather than “fewer errors”, except insofar as doing so marks one as “uneducated” and déclassé compared to someone who uses the “correct” usage. Of course, this particular class marker is less meaningful now that it’s too widely known—it’s more likely a marker of someone being a member of an anxious and pretentious tier of the middle class by now.

The pointless difficulty is, in fact, the point. For similar reasons, the word “ain’t” and the double negative are perfectly well-attested usages; they just exist primarily within specific dialects that are not socially prestigious. (Of course, blatant and well-known markers of class status are seen as stuffy and pretentious, which is why politicians tend to code-switch into more “folksy” dialects.

As for competing with Mandarin, I’m sure the Chinese upper classes are just as capable of telling each other apart from the rabble.

WFH, what does your employer expect?
These are 5 dimensions so it sounds like you could tend to be closer to the middle of them. IIRC as you mature one's behavior "spreads out" a bit over these dimensions.
> real estate agents can be difficult to contact and schedule with in themselves

This doesn’t match my experience. Every real estate agent I ever dealt was very responsive. This makes sense for someone who is going to make five figures if a sale happens.

I don't get the idea of bonuses. If employer wants people to do more work, they should just pay more. I'd never work under "if you achieve X you'll get Y". Too many times I found it to be a manipulation or just a scam to get more work for free. Not worth the mental health damage.
They offer, but you don't have to. Only add the uploader that passed your review and use that, not just anything from the interwebs.
That specific usage makes any written sentence sound as though it is in a French accent, no?

Similarly, writing sentence without article makes sentence seem as though it is written in Russian accent.
This is a moral conflict if I ever saw one. Assuming that the guy was a pedant only against his former company and not everyone around.

On one hand, a sleazy company gets karma-whipped.

On the other hand, the overall harm from a public authority enforcing the law unevenly because of a personal grudge is not negligible either. Junior people working with him will normalize this behavior and repeat it.

Neutral public institutions are a great achievement that helps the entire society grow.

Is this like saying “your income tax is paid your employer”? It seems true in some sense (the withheld money goes from the employer’s account to the government’s account) but false in another.
Exactly. This is like being dealt a horrible set of cards in poker and kicking yourself for folding. Let's say you got 2,7 and then found out the cards on the table turned out to be the rest of the 2s. Folding was still the right move
When I used WiX, I found it very... clunky? Everything in XML, lots of attributes to fill out, etc. And, at least when I was trying it out, the generated MSIs didn't appear to have any sort of GUI (or so I read. I don't believe I ever got to the point of generating an MSI).

I will say though, I remember the documentation being helpful and fairly straightforward, if a tad large (but that's what you get with a tool that's supposed to solve a complex problem).

Peloton Tread+ Treadmill Safety Incident
What I am trying to imply is that these are jobs that are authenticated by us and we are striving to list the highest number of jobs posted on daily basis. These jobs are ones verified by a team (group of friends) and shared which are then put in database for users.
Yes, and it’s vastly less than Bitcoin. Simply because it’s centralized, and a centralized system is always more efficient than a decentralized one. It’s a well known trade off.

A better comparison would be gold versus Bitcoin, as they’re both similarly decentralized. Just comparing energy consumption between the two probably wouldn’t make sense, though, as gold mining e.g. ruins vast areas of land.
My $600 treadmill has a magnet on a string with a clip on the other end, and the magnet has to stay stuck to a surface continually or the motors don't run. I attach the clip to my clothing so if I slip and fall while using the treadmill, it yanks the magnet away and immediately disables the machine. I keep the magnet up high enough that young kids can't get to it. Seems like that can be a reasonable way to greatly reduce the risk of injury.
> Manager successes and failures play out over a much longer period of time than the successes and failures of writing and debugging code, and you can only indirectly trace your impact.

Really important point! Being a manager requires a lot more patience. You try things out, but the feedback loop is very slow.
This might sound a bit confrontational, but do you have any involvement with peloton?

Because you've been posting multiple times in this thread posting pictures of other treadmills which don't have guards but clearly show a design which sits so close to the ground that it's impossible for something to be pulled under. So somehow I can't help but think if there are some other motives for your posts.
> Feel free to name any category of professional where working over 40 hours a week isn’t quite normal.

YMMV but the only time I ever experienced the myth that "working over 40 hours a week is the norm" was when I started working at a US-based company.

And the only reason unpaid overtime was the norm was that managers, specially skip-level management, did a piss-poor job establishing sane goals based on realistic time-frames, and typically threatened to fire people pretty much each and every single week if they did not met those unrealistic goals.

Strangely enough, everywhere else people managed to do their job within the 40hours work week.
Yes, just as a set of 1000-levers (arbitrary number, but highly dimensional) can influence a machine (in our 3d reality).
> Working 12 hours as a CEO is not comparable to 12 hours shift in the factory.

I challenge you to find an appropriate replacement for each job.
It's similar in New Zealand: sellers (usually) hire a real-estate agent, and buyers (usually) hire a lawyer to check the sale and purchase agreement, provide advice, and manage the exchange of money (kind of like escrow). The lawyer is much cheaper than the real-estate agent.

I'm guessing because it's an impossible counterfactual to suggest that an advanced industrial country could fully replace/de-carbonize 70% of their electricity production in the time span under discussion. Suggesting impossible counterfactuals doesn't advance the discussion in any way.

And Germany did not "chose coal over nuclear". While they have reduced nuclear production by about 30 TWh in the last 7 years, they have slashed coal-based electricity production by far more - 140 TWh - in the same period.

And it's not like Germany is bucking some trend with respect to nuclear - nuclear has been in decline globally since its peak in the mid 1980s.

Before I started working at MASSIVE CORP I thought Office Space was a comedy.....
This is a good observation.

The software that I spent most of my time with was a communication tool. So whenever something broke down, people had problems calling or texting one another. This pissed them off, naturally.

OTOH now my bestsellers are about half-forgotten events from world history. Aside from a weird e-mail I received from an even weirder Stalin-apologist, people generally enjoy this kind of reading and do not feel angry about it.

If, on the other hand, I were an investigative journalist and dug out dirt on politicans and mafia, the tone of the e-mails from readers would definitely get rougher, to say the least.
There is no reason to reply to such email in any case. Clearly nothing good can come of it.

Use GA if you want to.
I can understand that in general we would assume the increase in quantity may impact the quality negatively but I think we should not generalize this. Highest in this case is in relative terms. We are striving to verify and put higher number of active jobs on daily basis than other similar tools available plus we are trying to ensure the quality is not reduced for the listings that we make available.
How about a reliable power source that is many many times more efficient per mass than coal, so you don’t have to import it that often?

This is a very naive comment. Substantial damage can be caused prior to the system detecting an error condition; this is no excuse for not having guards.

This seems completely different to the sorts of walks I'm used to. When you say "qubit of an integer register" what are you actually talking about here? Do you have a qubit for each integer like a spin chain or something?

The sorts of quantum walks I'm used to are exactly the ones in the article and are also mentioned in the wikipedia page here.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_walk#Discrete_time

The example given on the wiki page is the classic example that gets called a "coined walk" in the literature.

Yep. Grew up with them, and it was these books that sustained my interest and imagination in science.

I still remember a hard-bound, deep blue coloured (roughly) notebook sized book that had these amazing DIY projects for space, including a rover etc. I don't think I could ever make the more complicated ones- they required woodwork etc which I simply didn't have access to as a child. But they helped me dream and develop an interest in making stuff of my own, and they are one of the reasons why I still love tinkering.

I wish I could get hold of that book once again, but I can't even recall it's name!
Dopamine reward signals in the brain are coded by how expected a reward is. Why? Because it's a learning signal. You've done something that you don't expect a reward for, but get one anyway? Hey, dopamine rush, I need to notice that positive outcome and learn what happened because it might work again. Conversely, if you do something that you're used to eliciting an expected reward and nothing happens, negative outcome, dopamine crash - I need to learn about this disappointment.

This post is a classic example (although there are other factors, such as the slowness of other teams who didn't know about the programme) - the people who weren't expecting a bonus were much happier with a much lower bonus. Add in the crappy way they hid the programme, so others didn't realise what was at stake and it was a recipe for disaster.

If a bonus is expected it's not a "bonus", and only sets up expectations that lead to huge disappointment when it eventually doesn't happen.

Maybe with the simplistic perspective that Bitcoin has a value that you can calculate.

Energy usecases are worth what energy they use. Energy exists in a mostly free market and that's the best way to determine value. Everything else is conjecture.
Can someone explain to me why lobbyists are permitted? Surely politicians should be representing the needs of people who voted for them. Lobbyists appear to enable exactly the opposite behaviour.
That’s true. But it’s important to point out that proof-of-work (PoW) is more decentralized than e.g. proof-of-stake (PoS).

For example, with PoW you only need a single honest node to arrive at the correct chain during initial sync. With PoS there is no such guarantee, since there’s no inherent way for a new node joining the network to decide which chain to pick when presented with two different, but equally valid, chains.
As I understand the main goal is to be able to watch other people using it while you are using it yourself as it has a camera. I don't know I find this thing totally creepy for some reason...
Great tool. Would be good to also include other services like: advania, linode, Hertznet. Often these are cheaper and have more RAM, some even offer DDoS attack. (AWS costs about $6000 from their DDoS team).
