The japanese experiments on human beings were just as bad or worse: body part swaps, person merging, survival time studies for various death scenarios, there was a lot of extremely messed up stuff.
The unsafety is localized to the rare `unsafe` blocks, which are not allowed to compromise the safety of the rest of the program.
One thing I do is keep a text file with lists of links, e.g. "programming", "gardening", "health" etc and if I haven't looked at a tab after a few days, I copy the URL and put it in the appropriate list, then close the tab.

If the browser prompted me to "archive" a tab after a few days and select a category, I'd probably use the functionality.

For many years (but no longer) Vince Cate's Offshore Information Services had a DNS A record for the ccTLD "ai", so that http://ai/ was a valid URL that worked in browsers. (A few people also had e-mail addresses @ai.)

Today, there are no longer any TLDs of any kind with their own A records.

That’s why there’s a monument to a mouse [0].

> Is there, realistically, anything that would change this?

In all confidence, nothing is going to replace animal models in science for decades to come(at least when we talk about biology). Yes, you can study development and disease in cell culture or organoids to some extent. But those don’t match the dynamics of a fully-functioning organism. Even though findings from mouse experiments often don’t translate well to humans, it’s our best bet. Computational biology can reduce the amount of experiments you need to do. For example, you can try to predict drug toxicity or identify key regulators of a certain cell type. But there’re always false positives(gene-regulatory networks are like 90% FP) and you always need to go back to the lab.

If anything, I hope for more in-vivo experiments with the developments in CRISPR.

> It is kind of circular - which suggests there is nothing unique about time. "The only evidence for time is change". Not "change (of particle position say) is one evidence of time passing". No - the ONLY evidence is change - the change in particle position for Barbour's simple examples. Therefore, do away with this extra baggage of time, and just look at particle positions.

Well, you've eliminated one step: you can't just look at particle positions, you need to measure change in particle positions in relation to X if you are to explain the world. Simply saying "static state 1", "static state 2" doesn't explain anything, unless you have some kind of relation between state 1 and state 2.

In the end, the very basic purpose of physics is to be able to tell, given state 1, what state 2 will be.
While the theories they developed were junk, both Nazi and Imperial Japanese torture experiments play a big role in our modern safety standards and guidelines.

E.g. modern guidelines on how long a human can be safely exposed to cold, or how much blood they can lose were founded on data the USA took from Japanese researches in exchange for pardons.

Why? I honestly don't see what you're suggesting?

We're already half-human half-chemical half-cyborgs. We drink coffee which includes caffeine, we use alcohol and THC regularly to "socialize", we take ibuprofen et al when feel pain, we eat sugar because we're fucking addicted. We use internet almost all the time except when sleeping and taking a shower. We check reddit, twitter, HN, facebook, instagram as if our lives depend on it. We're on track to build virtual reality googles that'll entertain us in an entire different simulated reality that we can only experience via our eyes. Not to mention most people look at monitors most of their lives anyway.

We regularly vaccinate against tetanus, HPV, chicken pox, flu etc. Do you not get the flu shot every year? I vaccinate my cat against rabies and distemper every year. I take antidepressants (anxiety) and antihistemics (allergy) every day, because I kinda need them to live normally. My girlfriend has to take pain medicine once a month due to her basic biology.

And the problem is we'll add COVID and cold to our annual flu shots, and that somehow makes our world any more dystopic. Makes absolutely no fucking sense. There are trillions of shit to be outraged about, this ain't one of those. Just chill.

ECS can take a docker-compose file and run it, although it is not turnkey. You still need to create the ECS cluster, set up auto scaling, and create any load balancers needed so I would not say it is “simple”, but it is definitely simpler than k8s.

I feel like there are broadly 2 groups of tech literate users; those who like lots of tabs and those who keep things lean. I absolutely cannot relate to the first group, as much as I try to understand the mentality.

When I’m digging deep into something new I might end up with 20 tabs, but a) it’s an exception and b) the moment I can see no more value I just close them all down and reset.

This is a very weasely statement. The FBI and multiple other agencies investigated a very real campaign of election influence that swirled around a particular candidate. No one ever made an accusation that wasn't supported by facts. There was no concerted effort to punish a candidate. Proxies to the candidate were tried and convicted for their very real crimes.
Chaotic Good: Creating Determinism Where None Exists
Definitely would. I have done so in the past. Had to move on from that job, sadly, and I'm back to 5 day weeks. The key is the company needs a good way to handle overtime/extratime during emergencies and crunches. For example, if I were to work 40+ hours in an emergency week, I should get an extra day off the next week (or after the crisis).

Maybe you find a society where they are fine to do human experiments. If the tide turns though when you were doing your experiments make sure you still can escape to Argentina to avoid trial.

Thank Ben :)
It really depends on the individual's overhead for context switching. Yes there is a cost, but I also think this cost is not uniform in all people. Also, nobody even on a single task, is using 100% of their capacity. So I would wager that some folks can, and do perform as well at 2 task at the same time as others do a single task.

Also remember, that somebody new to a tech might already be multitasking in the sense they are learning and doing at the same time, but somebody who has been doing the same type of work for 10+ years might not need the extra cycles for the learning part, and those could be used elsewhere.

Think about typing a comment on the internet. This entire comment took seconds to write. I am multi tasking. I am instructing my fingers to press buttons, while forming the words I wish to type, and then on top of that spelling them out. Take me when I was 8 and do the same thing and a post like this could have taken 15 minutes. While I know that there are probably 8 year olds today that could have done the same thing in less time than I can now, when I am in in my 30s.

The point being, folks can do more than one thing at once, and different folks can do more things at once as well or even better than other folks doing a single task.

We see it real well in the athletic world. Its clear some folks have bodies that allow them to run faster, or further, or jump higher, or even better eye hand coronation. To think that mental task and traits don't work the same way on a individual bases would be willfully dishonest. Some folks simply have a pertinently to spell well (I am not one of those), Some can so math with ease, and others ponder the vast theoretical realms of quantum mechanics.

People like Richard Feynman and Neil deGrasse Tyson exist, they are like top athletes in the brain game. Its clear that they have more capacity than myself, and others. So it stands to reason that some folks, and maybe many folks, can multi task better than others, and maybe that trait is what made them successful.

From my experience the talks at the water cooler are the ones that result in real change and progress. Its where the exchange of ideas happen. To think you know enough that you can sit in your box all day long and skip over hearing other peoples ideas is just elitist attitude. You won't know if you are right or wrong until its too late, and you won't be exposed to new fresh or challenging ideas without the social interactions. Hiding a way in a a box won't expose you to uncomfortable situations that will help you grow.
I taught intro programming twice this year. Having never taught a CS class at all (I am a math phd)... I would just like to point out that at least at "satellite state U", most students are not like you.

The class almost went off the rails the first time before I realized half the students didn't know what a text editor or shell was. I ended up writing a document at a slightly lower level than this "missing semester" course (though taking some inspiration from it).

If I teach the course again, I plan to do one week shell bootcamp with "get to know your system" exercises spread throughout.

I would continue working 5 days a week for 100% and I’m also thinking in start making some freelancer work in my spare time.

My reasons are:

1- I struggle to self motivate and do something productive, if I have more time I would, at best, play video, at worse I would waste time arguing about politics in Reddit.

2- I’m a software engineer and I normally finish all my daily tasks in 4 hours ish. The rest of the day, while I’m waiting for more task, I’m available if anyone needs my help, but most of the time I’m doing nothing. And now that I’m working from home, this 'nothing' results in personal things. So 4 days week would only lead to do the same work done but in 4 days instead of 5 and get pay less.

3- I’m single and in my late 20s. I want to work more now so when I start a family I can work less.
Are there any working groups or teams in the rust foundation[0] looking into stuff like this? I know every package manager has these issues but there's no technical reason preventing us from building sandboxes (i.e. WASM, deno, ...) for this and making it a first class citizen of cargo/rustup/etc.

Just installing a relatively popular crate (say Hyper) makes you realize that all of your secret could have been stolen by any of the myriad of dependencies.

>Can we justify experimenting on a known serial killer if the experiment will save a million children's lives in the next 10 years? I don't know.

How is that a question? Of course it's justifiable. Valuing the life of someone who only sees humans as play things rather than a collective is silly. Remove them for the greater good.

>If an alien species were using us for their medical experiments, under the same circumstances and conditions, then what would I say?

This can be answered with the same logic. I say this with all seriousness, if you are not a speciesist with a heavy bent towards humanity and our continued survival as a group you should really consider scaling back your empathy for the sake of practicality.

Your examples assume the absolute and complete knowledge. It is not our world. There is no theory of everything (yet or ever).

If I would try to find and explain alternative hypotheses for your "human intuition/everyday experience " examples they would sound contrived this invalidating themselves. Imagine trying to explain quantum theory/general relativity to a Victorian and their counter-examples all use objects from their life.

So weird to me. I think this every time I read about browser tabs, organization strategies, etc.

I rarely have more than half a dozen tabs open. And that's if I'm busy. Normally it's one or two -- whatever it is that I'm currently working on.

And at the end of the day -- all closed. History and cache cleared. Start clean the next day.
As an engineer in the UK this is probably true. I’m currently in finance which to some extent defies gravity, but in general it’s true that a good Software engineer salary in London is 50-100k pounds. FANG probably 100-150. And your effective rate of tax will be 30%ish and a decent place to live will be 2-3k. It’s definitely better being in the US for software.

You could argue this is why companies in the UK are recruiting from lower cost countries - because they don’t compete with higher cost countries in terms of compensation.

I think where macOS shines is it's standardization of things beyond the unix terminal.

(I'm also a big fan of the hardware. 2019 macbook has been the best laptop I've owned so far)

In terms of fighting the OS, I don't know where that comes from.

Anything cli you generally use sudo, anything else you open the security settings and tick some boxes. I don't even have to type my password, I just touch the finger print reader. Then the program works forever. (I have a keybinding to open security settings too, so it only takes maybe 5 seconds most of the time)

I honestly don't know what people are fighting, unless they just really hate clicking through a few menus.

One key piece of advice I follow is NEVER update to the latest new OS version. Almost every person I know does and they run into crazy issues that shouldn't even be problems. I'm not going to be your free QA engineer, Apple.
Is there a reason that access to the filesystem isn't sandboxed aggressively by the compiler? Even having build macros that can access arbitrary parts of the filesystem (vs a dedicated scratch directory) seems like a bad idea. Is there any legitimate use-case here?
That's fine if you're content with whatever changeable (just not by you) defaults.

I use both, but mostly Linux, and macOS is way more of a 'battle' because something I have set to behave how I want it to will suddenly stop working, or have been barely possible (e.g. window managers) in the first place.
> how brutal animal experimentation can be.

Mark Twain expressed it rather succinctly[1]:

"I believe I am not interested to know whether Vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn't. To know that the results are profitable to the race would not remove my hostility to it. The pains which it inflicts upon unconsenting animals is the basis of my enmity towards it, and it is to me sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further."

Maybe what you want is for astronomy to be about looking at stars, not building telescopes.

Less flippantly: I think everybody knows that "computer science" BA/BS programs are feeders for the industry (almost exclusively in both directions -- it's hard to get an industry job without a BSCS and the overwhelming majority of BSCS go into industry instead of academia, more so than other bachelors programs).

There are people who wish there were separate tracks for academic-minded folks and industry-minded folks, but young industry-minded folks generally don't want to go to a "trade school"s, they want to go to college and enjoy college culture before they go into industry.

Who knows what motivated the grandparent post to say that [EDIT: OK, now he explained and I definitely don’t endorse that, geez], but I can see some grounds for unease at aledalgrande's vision of a specifically annual vaccination mentioned above. The COVID epidemic has been accompanied by border closures, followed now by a slow and chaotic reopening of them as different countries recognize different vaccines and different certificates proving vaccination. A future where everyone must get an annual jab to prevent even the common cold, and then have to prove recent vaccination to cross borders, would only continue indefinitely what many people hoped was just a one-off thing in their lifetimes.

Incidentally, only half of people or less even in affluent countries get the annual flu shot. It is frequently believed to be relevant only for the elderly and at-risk demographics.

I mean, for one thing you can’t breed transgenic killers with a desired genotype by the millions.

That’s too hypothetical. Aliens will be more similar to their native fauna genetically then to us.
This chip has ~22 bits of dynamic range. It's somewhat common to have 32-bit word sizes on ADCs/DACs like this that start to approach 24 bits, mostly as a convenience, and to make sure nobody accidentally ends up clipping in the middle of a filter MAC stage somewhere, but inevitably marketing decides to plaster "32 bits!" all over the datasheet.

I work with an ADC designed for seismic applications that claims similar specs and also has a 32-bit word size, and even those specs (~23 bit DR) are pretty difficult to achieve in practice.

I'm somewhat amused to see this in an audio DAC though, since the power amplifier and speakers are going to be way less linear than anything you can push through this thing. But I guess audiophiles gonna audiophile...
When working on a group project how do you divide up your work. How to keep track of everyone's progress so you don't have 3/4 of the project done only to discover that one of the members has not even started on his piece yet. Basically how to work in groups. This is one thing that many students struggle with and if you don't do it you'll often find group projects where one person did like 90% of the work because nobody knew how to coordinate.
