Same for me, but they say “As shown in Google’s Terms of Service”, and that link https://policies.google.com/terms?authuser= does show the country (see and possibly click on the text “Country version”).
If you slow down the pace to help the "zero percenters" and only cover 80% of the material in the allotted time, the students who could have handled 100% of the material will be limited to 80%. And that slowdown still won't be enough to help the slowest learners much, so they'll still only learn, say, 20% of the material.

Nope. Serial numbers are only used for theft prevention/lifetime controls/anti-counterfeit for dollar bills.

I'd like you to imagine or ask any business whether they have ever had someone on the books whose only responsibility was managing cash serial numbers for reporting purposes.

The answer will most likely be no. There is no circular that goes around "here's a list of known bad dollar bills" like there are accounts/persona-non-grata via OFAC. This is also why the U.S. implements controls and reporting requirements on large cash withdrawals, because it can be a signal there is something odd going on they don't have enough controls in place to actually monitor.

There is nothing that would make the forensic accountant's life easier than cash disappearing and everyone switching to required by law digital bookkeeping. That database is only a subpoena away as long as uncooperative jurisdictional boundary crossing isn't in play.
Your argument is that the majority opinion is never psychopathic? Technically, if you were referring only to insanity, I might agree that an operational definition of insanity is anything that a majority of the population doesn't believe. But that doesn't mean the view is not psychopathic.

This definition of insanity might also not be correct. After all, was Galileo insane because most people (assuming they followed the church) didn't agree with his views?
a lot of electronics tutorials start with resistors and capacitors and have you build RC circuits and measure their decay, but I found that a diode-first class makes a lot more sense.

Once I discovered constant current controllers, I started to have real fun with LEDs. Sure, you can use a resistor to drop voltage but that's just spewing heat. Switched Constant current controllers are much more elegant not very hot at all and have excellent control over intensity.

These days I typically run LEDs at half their rated current; they are still plenty bright and run FAR cooler than max current.
Thanks Peter, here is a more generalized question. What would be the best course of action for somebody to get back on a J1 visa since its expired yet legally from what I understand since its on a 5 year cycle (research scholar).

Also if not how can they get a working visa in US ?

I also updated the above question to reflect the general gist of a situation that I would be grateful to receive some help for.

Did you read the bit where 80% of employed engineers in North Carolina don't have an engineering license, but have an industry exemption from state law? He was legally an engineer for decades up until his retirement.

So imagine if 80% of doctors didn't have some sort of license allowing them to speak about their practice.

> In fact, like the majority of engineers nationwide, Wayne was not required to get a license since he worked for a company under the state’s “industrial exception.”

> By some estimates, 80% of engineers nationwide work legally without a license. By the Board’s interpretation, most engineers in North Carolina could not legally comment publicly on engineering.

I'm an American citizen and I needed to go to the hospital in Coober Pedy in 2009. It was after hours, so I rang the bell up front and a cheerful nurse responded on the intercom. My case was deemed sufficient to merit a response, so the nurse and a doctor both came over at once and booted up the place. I got my exam, some crutches, and a prescription in about an hour and $45.

Also all the water is trucked in, so shower stalls are often coin-fed. Works OK except when there is no warning that you're about to run out of water and your face is covered in soap. Makes it hard to find and fidget with coins.

This all makes sense, but at the same time feels a bit paradoxical to me. We’re developing a first-principles theory to understand the mechanics of massive empirical models. Isn’t that kind of ironic?

If the problem we’re solving is “faster iteration and design of optimal deep learning models for any particular problem”, I would have thought the ML-style approach would be to solve that.. through massive empiricism. Develop a generalized dataset simulator, a language capable of describing the design space of all deep learning models, and build a mapping between dataset characteristics <> optimal model architecture. Maybe that’s the goal and I haven’t dug deep enough. Just feels funny that all of our raw computing power has led us back to the need for more concise theory. Maybe that’s a fundamental law of some kind.
One of the most radical beliefs I have is we should get rid of private schools, because it lets the people most capable of forcing change to opt out of an increasingly broken system, and so it doesn't get fixed.

Of course I say this as I seriously consider sending my kids to a private school because of articles like this.

The claim that Lean's core is not completely sound is FUD. Completely bogus.

You might be confused by the fact that Lean's definitional equality is not decidable, but that doesn't mean it isn't sound. Nobody has ever found a proof of `false` so far in Lean 3.

The choice for Lean is actually quite natural: (i) it has a large and coherent library of mathematics to build such a project upon. And (ii), it has a substantial user base of mathematicians somewhat familiar with the subject at hand (i.e., condensed mathematics).

The initial challenge by Peter Scholze was directed at all theorem proving communities. As far as I know, only the Lean community took up the challenge.

(Concerning Lean 4: yes, mathlib will have to be ported. And yes, people are working hard on this. I think that none of the theorem provers so far are ready for wide-scale use in mathematics. And that's why it is important to iterate fast. The Lean community is not afraid of redesigns and large refactors when discovering better approaches.)
In the vast, vast majority of cases, yes. However, black boxes are only used in the minority where something has gone horribly wrong.

High school teachers are not given free reign to teach whatever they want. Even college professors are currently being threatened.

While it's always possible OR AA employees do little (certainly plenty of organizations public and private have such employees), it also seems plausible that it does regional AA things that would otherwise be ... regional FAA jobs.

Bureaucracy isn't that different from code. Some of it's dead legacy that needs to be removed, some of it's legacy that needs to be improved/replaced, some of it's legacy that's good enough, some of it's there for a damn good reason no matter how ugly it looks.

And when it comes to code, you probably trust devs who have specific insights into issues with code and promising replacements.
They are simply uninterested. Poetry and pipenv both give you the opportunity to separate dev dependencies, keep your venv folder separate from the project, add platform specific packages and easily update all package versions. Pipenv will even load the .env file. After reading all this, your python developer will go "well I still don't know what it does that I can't do with venv/pip".

Let's rephrase this.

If you had a choice between:

a. doing your job as well as you can, then losing it (and being unemployable forever, quite likely);

b. doing it somewhat worse, but keeping it (and hopefully having a chance to help more students).

What would you do?

Please blame whoever forced this conundrum on teachers. Nonsensical bureaucratic decisions like this are the reason for which I left the profession.

Well, people are funding schools through taxes. Then they send their kid to school. Then the school decides their kid is too stupid* to do much, so they get relegated to dumb class and their future career prospects get nullified.

We had a course like this at my engineering school. Cutting your own chip is a fantastic journey. My partner made a key mistake along the way by reversing the layout of an op amp, but I was able to model his mistake and show the prof that I had figured it out on the lab bench. Full marks. It was fun.
> “You need not gatekeep here, this is a real term.”

Not my monkey; not my circus. But… is critique of terms “gatekeeping”? I understand this term in the context of ownership (ie. gatekeepers for books are publishers/printers who own the means of production.)

I greatly appreciate some level of debate of terms here on HN.
A core issue is that building Android ROMs is very difficult to do so in a simple and accessible manner. The build systems generally all require enterprise server level of memory and a build can easily take hours. Every device has a unique configuration, imagine if every brand of laptop ran their own variant of Ubuntu. For most "ROMs" that you find on obscure places like XDA, the builds by random people across the globe are a much greater security risk than good first-party updates.

> Also all the water is trucked in, so shower stalls are often coin-fed. Works OK except when there is no warning that you're about to run out of water and your face is covered in soap.

Seems like you'd get used to it quickly.

In Chinese apartments (in Shanghai, at least), there is a small water heater dedicated to the shower. It stores a certain amount of water at a temperature you configure, and when it runs out, your shower will be cold. (You're expected to set it much hotter than you want the shower, and mix it with cold water, which is unlimited, to get the shower temperature you want.)

This means it's impossible to take a two-hour hot shower. But it also means the showering process doesn't include "step 0: wait a few minutes for hot water to start coming out of the shower". When you turn on the hot water, you get hot water. It's really soured me on the American system.

> I think the idea was quite sensible. Keeping the configuration in one place while supporting whatever features the manufacturers might have added e.g. touch pad gestures.

This school sounds like some sort of weird Kafkaesque punishment for kids. Everyone is trying to game it: kids who don't want to write essays, administrators who don't want kids to fail. Teachers who want kids to both learn stuff and pass.

Motivate the kids. Show them stuff about the world, and show them how to find out things for themselves. If you're going to test them, do it in a way that doesn't destroy all enjoyment of the subject. Try to get the kids to want to keep learning after they leave you.

No. ISA+40 isn't a static temperature, it would be lower in Denver than at sea level. So in no way is that a warm electronics kind of problem.

We use ISA differences (the +40 you wrote) in flight performance calculations specifically. Not in any "aircraft too warm / cold" kind of limits, since those would be absolute numbers not relative to ISA.
I wish they defined the term fractal... At least whatever they mean by using that word, since fractal has very simple definition and is even measurable (fractal dimension measure). Fractals tend to repeat their structure at different sizes.

Do they mean "unorganized non-abstract shapes with elaborate structure" or something similar?

> why do people let themselves get upset over UI changes?

Because a UI is a tool I use to get something done. I don't like when the thing I've been using intuitively gets changed so I have to learn to use it again. It's a tool. It's not an art piece.

> Why don’t people seem to take pride in their ability to adapt to change?

Because this adaptation doesn't make their lives any better. It's change for the sake of change. It's like weather, except weather isn't quite controllable, but these changes are deliberately introduced by other people to mess with you for no good reason.

> Change is inevitable.

Progress is inevitable. Moving things around isn't progress. Progress implies adding something.

> Even if we stipulate that change sometimes happens for bad reasons, like someone wanting a promotion

The incentive structure in most IT companies is wildly wrong, I'll say that. No one at Google got promoted for maintaining an existing product because afaik promotion requires completing a "big project". So the easiest "big project" is a UI redesign. The second easiest is apparently an instant messaging app.

> Why not take the approach of “let’s see how I can adapt to this”?

Let's see. I adapted to this by avoiding installing any major updates unless absolutely necessary. Security patches are fine tho.

Playing devils advocate for a moment, as grading works right now, a kid can quickly dig themselves into a hole that they have no realistic way to get out of, e.g., by utterly bombing on an exam or missing a few assignments early in the semester. The motivation for that kid to progress any further is zero, yet they are imprisoned in the classroom for the duration of the semester.
