Very true, knowing what to do is very different to bringing oneself to do it and dieting is a very good example. How many times therapists can actually change eating habits? From what I know the rates are low, similiar to any other coaching schemes of neutritionist or whoever is in the business of making people thin.

No, this still keeps some gatekeeper checks, popups when downloading files, weird arguments being passed to apps on first launch, etc. Even if doing it in the root recovery mode.

One could argue that subscription based news orgs are incentivesed to provide you news which would ensure that you stay subscribed. For some people these news would have to be factual, but, for IMO most people news which are either not fully factual, or omit some information would be "preferred" as long as they (the news) conform to the opinion of the subscriber.

Interview with Austen Allred, CEO of Lambda School.

Yes the constitution, but that still goes against the principle. In the Scarlet Letter, the main character is made a pariah for having sex. I think we can all agree that is morally wrong, on the part of the town that ostracize them. To banish someone for being against your ideas, or principles, is inherently to try and be an authoritarian. To say that "if you do not follow this ideal, I will do what I can to destroy you". It is an illiberal idea. liberalism is comfortable with competing ideas because ideas stand on their own.
They also say, "We're in the business of making software, and a few tangential things that touch that edge."

Advocacy on the policies of one of the world's foremost software distribution gatekeeper seems well within how they define "their business". I don't think it takes much squinting to see how they can view this sort of advocacy as in their lane, while the popular political discussions of the day are not.
The assertion is that his friend's acquaintance with KKK members was effective at helping them leave. But we can't tell how effective unless we know how many people would have left without the friend's assistance.
Roku is toxic and the only reason I know this is having been forced to deal with their products due to being pre-packaged on smart TVs. Roku comes "free" because it thinks it can extract value from me. It is free like a leech is free.

It tracks what you watch and superimposes ads. The interface is frightfully slow. The remote is hard to use as compared to my phone being the remote, as is the case with a Chromecast.
This is a very tricky presentation of the larger image. The document mentions the "Premium Sedan" category market, not the entire market.

So looking at the Premium Sedan market share in the US (which is arguably the most important market in the world) the numbers show a 1% decline in sales for 2020 - "The midsized car segment continues to lose share in the US car market in 2020. Sales were down 22% in an overall market down 14%. As a result the share of midsized cars drops by 1 percentage point to 10.2%, and in absolute numbers, the 1.5 million sales make this the lowest year of this millennium and long before it." - from https://carsalesbase.com/us-car-sales-analysis-2020-midsized...

So while the premium sedan category (including Tesla 3) is declining overall, Tesla is reporting to its shareholders the "great achievement" of winning that sales declining race.
I wouldn't mind paying the dollar a month for the CPU-seconds I consume across all my 'free-tier' personal project CI pipelines, if that were an option.

There just doesn't seem to be a vendor offering something in-between "enterprise CI/CD solution" and "free"; it probably costs more to track that kind of usage than it would be worth to bill?
It may even be the best approach, as odd as that seems. It's the data. Or rather, lack of it. Machine learning is best trained with extensive, accurately translated, aligned bilingual texts.

By far, the largest corpus for that is English-French. Unsurprisingly, English-French is the best language pairing for most machine translation systems. Closely followed by other major languages spoken in the EU, especially Spanish and German. The multilingual publications of the EU, as well as the UN, and companies and governments in countries like Switzerland and Canada, are the largest sources of such documents, as I understand.

Without that kind of resource to drawn on, the quality of a direct pairing may end up worse than running it through a pivot language.

That said, with German-French, for example, there would likely be enough sources out there to enable that directly. The article notes Japanese/Korean is a direct pairing, which makes sense given lexical similarity and also extensive bilingual texts. I'm kind of surprised Spanish/Catalan would get that priority before French/Spanish or Japanese/Chinese or German/French, though.

Have you read a single page of any IPCC report or any major climate science publication?

The rhetoric you're spewing is uninformed and dangerous. Even if you are exactly right (and well-founded scientific arguments would suggest you are definitely not), you are speaking completely out of turn without any evidentiary basis.

Like, "plants like CO2 so more CO2 might be good" is naive, elementary school reasoning. You might as well say "cardio exercise is good for the heart, so maybe medically inducing tachycardia is good for me". It's a complete non-sequitur with no empirical grounding.
It's still not a premium car.
Hurricane Maria was pretty devastating and the lack of Federal aid exacerbated it. I imagine people left after that.
It seems absolutely wild to me that we are using pre pandemic population counts to apportion seats.
The changes will come into play as of 2023's Congress.
You seem to be imagining that the sea level will smoothly rise mm by mm over a century and that people will gradually and peacefully abandon the shoreline and move inland.

It seems to me that a more likely outcome is that people will build defenses to protect existing cities (which are after all massive investments) and and that those defenses will work well right up until they catastrophically fail in a major storm (e.g. see Katrina).
But this isn't "heavily silencing government criticism". Only 50ish tweets were blocked, for containing misinformation that was intended to cause a panic. That's illegal per Indian laws. Criticizing the government is not illegal, and is allowed. If the government were really "heavily silencing government criticism", we would be seeing millions of tweets and accounts being blocked and censored. Instead, it's a narrow targeted set that did things like use images from other circumstances to make it seem like they were part of the COVID situation.
Hurricane Maria in 2017 must be partially responsible?

Property damage (estimated at $90B) and loss of economic opportunity surely forced many people to move to the mainland.
I'm surprised by how micro-managey Tesla is with their Model 3/Y prices. Most manufacturers release a static MSRP for that model year. However, Tesla the past year was dropping prices $500-$1,000 periodically. And then as of last month, has raised prices $500-$1,000 twice.
Back in the 70s, my mother was still paying her mortgage. She forgot one payment and the bank sent her a rather nasty, threatening letter. She rightly got in a huff, called them up, and asked them, "I've made every payment on time until I forget one payment, and you treat me like a deadbeat. Why is that?"

Their response was that the computer did it. (This was a common explanation you got from bureaucracies in the 70s)

This did not satisfy my mother so she wrote a letter to the bank president, explaining to him that she didn't but that explanation. "Computers are not stupid and arrogant."

If what my mother says is true, you will never be able to replace a CEO with a computer.
So, I'm not sure about vaccines, but I can say something about insulin. Lantus' patent expired, and then Basaglar came in. It's the same insulin, apart from some inactive ingredients (which just dilute it, afaik), and the fabrication process[1]. But 1 unit of lantus and 1 unit of basaglar contains the exact same amount of the same insulin formula. Basaglar costs less, some many people are changing to it.

And still, a lot of people had trouble adjusting, and even those that adjusted, some report that for a few days, their glucose levels were high and not coming down. Some had to adjust the daily dose to be slightly higher.

I'm not sure if that same problem would happen for mRNA vaccines, but it's important to keep in mind that the whole manufacturing process + quality control can make a difference.

With respect, have you been in many club-like settings yourself? It's very easy to look down upon these ridiculous unwritten and fuzzy social rules (yes, they're ridiculous) from behind a screen, but in the moment, holding that glass of carbonated water with a citrus slice in it suddenly feels a lot more natural.
It's more about recognizing second order effects.

If a problem can be solved with money, your real problem is not having the money.
Why would they? They make so much money it's not even funny. Tesla is also a very different beast then iPhones, who knows if it would have been as successful.
Could be, but having more discriminating data as an input can only improve speed and accuracy. I don't know what technology they picked for the first iteration, but can only imagine they'll end up using every trick in the book going forward.

A slightly more advanced sensor or lighting apparatus wouldn't cost much more, proportionately to the cost of the whole system.
You can have these conversations but you can’t have them on company property. But if you want to create your own forum with other coworkers then go ahead.

So no more using the company Slack for this type of thing.

I think people are starting to see how some groups have been undermining and infiltrating every organization they can. It’s literally in their literature to do this. Replicate what they’ve accomplished in universities and journalism - it has spread to tech workplaces, non-profits, and elite private schools. The goal is to politicize everything and then seize power and then pillage for personal gain.
I wonder if it’s possible that this is true in some restricted area where companies are heavily testing their self-driving cars, and COVID reduced the amount of driving people do.
> I know a man who is rock hard – he's firm in his pants, he's firm in his shirt, his character is firm – but most of all, his belief in you the students of Bethel, is firm. Jeff Kuhlman is a man who takes his point and pounds it in. If necessary, he'll take an issue and nail it to the wall. He doesn't attack things in spurts – he drives hard, pushing and pushing until finally – he succeeds. Jeff is a man who will go to the very end – even the climax, for each and every one of you. So please vote for Jeff Kuhlman, as he'll never come between us and the best our school can be.

That's the student body election speech that was ruled not to be protected in _Fraser_, one of the main precedents in this case.
The reason is that the applicants would not be loaned anything if they could discharge debt in bankruptcy. i.e. student loans would not exist unless collateralized and we don't want people to have to put up collateral equal to the value of the loan.

This is because if I were a student, the optimal route would be to take the largest loan possible while on no assets, then go to the most expensive university, then declare bankruptcy on graduation.

The lender knows this, so they won't give me any loan unless I can put up collateral equal to the value of the loan.

The government knows this, and they also want kids to go to college, so they provide a mechanism by which kids can promise to pay back the money.
What prevents you from using classes as only namespaces with static functions?
IDFA was initially introduced to discourage tracking via hardware such as serial numbers. Everything is an evolution.
I believe in some jurisdictions you're obliged to provide this kind of information - especially mental issues that could put others at risk. You'll have to be more specific about what country you live in.

A lot of larger companies also make you pass a psychological test of some sort. That may or may not uncover something, but I somehow doubt it unless it's something severe.

Generally would avoid putting that in if you're in the clear legally.
I'm confused as to why this headline has to be so close to clickbait. I'm not even one to stand up for people like Lambda, I think a lot of bootcamps are shady at best, and actively deceptive at worst (Trilogy).

It is definitely important to note that that these loans can be discharged in bankruptcy. But as far as I know, isn't this less stringent than typical student loans, which can't be discharged in bankruptcy? Is the point here that there was a population of Lambda students who weren't aware they could discharge their loan, and this contract prevision was preventing them from doing so? Or was the school deliberately making that process more difficult? The article makes none of that entirely clear.

On the whole this doesn't scream "deceptive educational financing practices" to me. That sounds like a government agency press release making a mountain out of a molehill and trying to knock Lambda down a peg, but I might be wrong.

Edit: after reading how dischargeability impacts people's ability to take out the loan in the first place, yeah, this matters quite a bit, and I was wrong because I didn't understand how education financing works. I'll own that. Seems Lambda was being less than equitable in how they approached the matter, and hoping no one would notice.
Why is it a settlement, were the regulators not sure that they violated the law and sought compromise? It sounds like "Lambda School agrees to comply with the law" which implies that doing so is optional.
Pagination-by-grouping-criteria is a holy-grail for so many. It’s not easy to implement, but your users will thank you. Especially if hovering-over the page number button immediately displays the range of data in that page.

I would place more money on her being of lower socio-economic class than her peers. These "zero-tolerance" policies are rarely applied equally across class.
> Coal is 20% not most

You’re right ! US has shifted from coal ... to Natural Gas !

I don’t think that this is solving the problem , natural gas comes from fracking ... but it’s definitely a small win knowing how big is America and how much less natural gas produces CO2.
Steam has a much better case to argue, given that they're a fiscally independent company with no board of directors or shareholders to satisfy. Since they don't get monthly cash infusions, they need to do two things: shoot for an aggressive growth model, and shower the end user in features. In my opinion, they've succeeded in both regards: their 30% cut is pretty large, but it's justified given the scale of the operation they run. Plus, their generosity with things like cloud save, video streaming, and their assortment of community offerings, it's hard to really claim that Steam doesn't deserve their cut. If anything, I consider them the premier example of what a "premium" CDN pipeline looks like.
how about forcing tech companies to state at the time of sale how long they plan on maintaining/ updating their product/program. Also, requiring hardware manufacturers to provide an estimate of the expected lifespan in cycles of their product, and/components. Figures that are too conservative must be punished with the same level of strictness as overestimations in order to maintain the integrity of the law.

Obviously, these laws will only apply to the tech sector, but it's a start.
Of course, yes and yes. The business model is complete nonsense otherwise.
Is the idea that Jews are literal monsters part of someone's culture and identity?

Is that culture and identity something the rest of the world can live with?
My not so humble opinion, awards shows have always been unwatchable rubbish about people I don't care about. Worse, I've listened to authors, actors, and artists talking about their art... god damn I have never been so bored. John Cleese is funny, right? Monty Python is funny, right? John Cleese talking about the making of Monty Python is the most boring, un-funny shit I've ever seen.

Why do people watch this drek? No idea. Maybe if it's too politicized for people who are easily offended, its ratings will tank and it will drop off the air, and nothing of value is lost. Just like sports
Presumably because price is basically per kW, and installations can vary significantly in size?
Tesla is now entirely valued on the "self driving taxi fleet" and "selling self driving software" stories panning out for the valuation to work. If Tesla doesn't get autonomus self driving, or if it gets beat to market by someone, it's got no way to justify valuation.
People are not having kids because it's to expensive.
Anyone hawking FSD is a stock promoter (liar). Uber/Tesla/Lyft. Elon Musk claims Tesla FSD will be L5 by end of 2021, but they recently filed a document with the CA DMV stating Tesla FSD is L2 automated.

Which one do you think is more realistic, staying L2 by EOY 2021, or magically leaping forward to L5 FSD in 8 months?

The only company working on self-driving that I believe when they issue press releases is Waymo, because Google isn’t trying to juice their stock price all the damn time, and they have operable robotaxis in AZ. I don’t think Waymo claims L5 capability either.
Personally, I say yes. The US is a huge outlier among OECD nations [1] and this definitely shows in the connection and level of interaction people feel to their representatives, at least based on my experience living in both the US and a country with a far lower ratio.

I can guarantee these rules are not enforced uniformly across socioeconomic class.
Reading this, I'm actually not sure if Lambda implied the tuition wasn't dischargeable in bankruptcy when it actually is, or the other way around. If you sign up for Lambda and then go bankrupt, do you still have to pay them back?
