Although it was inevitable, I’m not looking forward at all to a future where VR and AR will have ads.
The range thing depends on your use case, and clearly it isn't going to suit you. I have a pretty long commute - 60-70 miles each day, but this is easily swallowed by an electric. Most people use their cars to commute and do errands in. We occasionally do a longer trip, and here in the UK, that would need planning to work around where the fast (>50kW) chargers are.

Smooth acceleration is more a comfort thing. I normally use a manual, but even with an automatic, you're probably used to the shifts and the loss of torque - it's more comfortable on your neck to not have this.

Re: quietness - I do an hour commute each way, and I've done it in cars that aren't sound proofed well - I've had my ears ringing slightly on arrival. However, above 50mph noise is more to do with tyres and wind than the engine. A quieter car means I can listen to the radio and my music without hurting my ears, and conversations in the car can be casual without me shouting.

To add to long service intervals - less things to go wrong. An electric engine is simple. Don't need to change oil, don't need to worry about a gearbox, don't worry about the exhaust going, or the clutch, or the timing belt, or the fuel injectors.

Your last point - car engines are less efficient than a power station at converting fossil fuels into energy. I don't know whether they produce less particulates (my guess would be they do as our country burns natural gas which is simpler than petrol/diesel), but they don't push it out into the faces of people walking, or the air intake of the car behind.
Can you explain how the RCT is more useful than the meta-analysis that was posted as the OP?
More than aspect ratio or physical pixels the real metric is "inches of screen space". You can put 8k in a 13" laptop but if you want to read the window title and url bar and dock you're still eating the same amount of physical real estate as if it were a 1080p laptop. You can change the aspect ratio sure but outside of desktop setups the space constraint is already in depth so all you're doing is chopping off width that wasn't a problem while keeping the same depth profile. I.e. very few are buying a 13" laptop because 15" is too wide rather than too deep.
On the one hand, I haven't seen any real exploitation of Spectre, at least by a non-TLA. On the other hand, the mitigations aren't so slow anymore on a modern CPU:

https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=3-years-...

IMHO, there's a good argument for turning off the mitigations on Skylake in some systems - but in modern CPUs the cost of leaving the mitigations on is bearable.
Well the SID has a powerful resonating filter, this one has no filter at all. It's a bit like using a banjo instead of a Les Paul...
I think it is less about the likelihood of a major conflict and more about the position of strength in negotiations to prevent a major conflict.

Edit: Any major military conflict would come at a large economic cost to both sides (which is why I agree it is pretty unlikely.) However there is an element of negotiating strength that comes when the economic costs to your side is relatively lower than the economic costs to the opposing side.
Idk if you're still talking about Germany specifically or more global trends. Regarding Germany: gun control is a non-partisan issue and not even remotely part of the public discourse. Censorship of various degrees is written in German law especially when it pertains to racism, hate speech, and Nazi language and symbolism. Regarding the last, I'm not aware of the state of Germany on that point.

However, none of the points you named are anywhere even remotely near "extreme left", even by US standards. Those are all Democrat party talking points, which is anywhere from slightly left of center to center-right.

The "extreme left" (no, US Democrats are not socialists) has no political representation anywhere in the Western world and barely registers in public consciousness at all.

Feynman's behavior seems rather irrational in this case. If he believed the doctor was smart and competent he shouldn't have interfered. If he doesn't he shouldn't have made the assumption about what the doctor "obviously considered".

As a result the doctor probably concluded he should never listen to the patients' ideas and rather always put the easiest diagnosis which also is a quite common kind of a doctor to meet and is not much better than a totally incompetent one who doesn't even know the most common diagnoses but at least would listen to you as long as you sound reasonable, make the tests and try prescribing the medications you suggest as long as they are in line with the literature.
Does it make sense to buy a traditional vehicle these days? It seems the trend is moving towards hybrids and all electric. We get a lot of snow where I live, I mean a lot of snow, and I’ve always wanted a jeep, or a nice big SUV. But I’m afraid of spending money on a combustion engine, when we may be heading in a completely different direction and I may be stuck with a clunker essentially.
> . The authors of _Grading For Equity_ spoke at my school and the reasoning they gave for eliminating 0-grading (i.e., not using 0 as the lowest possible grade) was because it's basically impossible to recover from.

It’s easy to recover from if you don’t use a stupid method if aggregation, but that takes actually thinking about what it is you are trying to measure; for instance, if you grade by % in each of several competency areas throughout the year, and have a final grade catehory standards (cumulative, so you get the highest grade where you’ve met all the standards):

D: median of competency area medians meets minimum proficiency standard

C: median score within every competency area meets minimum passing standard

B: median of competency area medians meets high proficiency standard or median in at least one competency area meets excellence standard

A: median of competency area medians exceeds excellence standard

(standards might be something like passing 70%, high proficiency 80%, excellence 90%, but the exact numbers aren’t the point.)

That will give you a measure of overall competence that isn't particularly sensitive to outlier scores on a single assignment, even if the assignment has components across many competency areas.

Depends what you're counting as a constitution. San Marino has the US beat for oldest written and still active constitutional documents by 190 years.

Are people still pirating software? Apart from kids trying out software, people from countries where the product is not officially available or is exhorbitantly priced as compared to their purchasing power, I doubt there is a reason to pirate. Most tools have alternatives available or an easy on the pocket subscription plan (Adobe is an exception, subscription plans should not come with a lock-in, no matter how you justify it).
Eat them in southern Italy. They’re cheaper and you can actually eat more than 5 in a sitting. They vary from 1cm to 2.5cm in size, and you can have a dishful of them.

My grandma used to cook them in the summer with tomatoes and onions in a little clear soup.

In Apulia you might find Municeddhe, which are just cooked with oil and butter and maybe herbs (as far as I know). They’re amazing.
Sure, in theory lying can have legal consequences, but only if you can prove the person is intentionally lying. To take away the license you'd only have to prove they are stating things no qualified engineer would say.

Suppose, for example, an engineer testified that bricks should never be used in housing because in his professional opinion bricks cause cancer. His source is a blog post as reliable as a supermarket tabloid.

How do you prove he's intentionally lying, rather than just insane or confused or stupid?

By making it a license issue instead, you at least move the goal as to whether his statements meet some minimum standard of professional expectations or care.

This is all just hypothetical, in practice I don't know to what extent these license authorities are supervising engineers. But ideally I'd like an engineer to at least have some pressure to remain honest when they testify in court.
>The countries that are going to be hurt by these US semiconductor subsidies are going be Taiwan, South Korea, Japan ... not China.

I think I may agree here, and it gets complicated -- fast.

I suspect you might be referring to larger parts like CPUs, but you should take this excellent opportunity to investigate china's semi industry a bit. China has a very interesting local manufacturing economy of parts and suppliers that is mostly invisible to outside observers.

It's fascinating that in China, there is a totally divergent supply chain to support the cheap consumer electronics industry. Granted, it isn't CPUs. However, they sure are cranking out semis, its just that they never leave China but for inside of another product. The datasheets are all in Chinese, they aren't exported, they serve to support China's unique manufacturing culture.

Here's a previous submission that delves into this:

Ah, yeah. Some actual RCTs with a decent sample size would be nice though, so as to have proper information to empower doctors and patients with.
Popular versions of food may not be more than “inspired” by the original localities dishes.

If you have electricity at this remote location you can charge your vehicle from a standard 120 volt outlet and get something in the range of 30 miles a day. So if the nearest fast charge is around 150 miles away and you are going to spend a few days at your destination, you can make that trip today with an EV that has 200+ mile range like previously mentioned Audi. There are also Teslas today that have well over 300 miles of range and could make that trip even without the 120v destination charging.
Because this is the easiest way.

It's like adding extra code as opposed to changing code within a spaghetti codebase.

Make no mistake, politics is a giant spaghetti codebase no politician really understands.
It’s a challenge to get enough solar panel area to rely on for charging unless you were camping for a few days every few hundred miles or something. Someday I hope it’s viable but it’s really not a great solution right now compared to ICE.
I Googled Ivermectin meta-analysis. But instead of finding the article we're discussing now, I found a different meta-analysis.

https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.05.21.21257595v...

It concluded Ivermectin "did not reduce all-cause mortality, length of stay or viral clearance in RCTs in COVID-19 patients with mostly mild disease. IVM did not have effect on AEs or SAEs. IVM is not a viable option to treat COVID-19 patients."

But wait... Before you upvote or downvote me, I want to say this proves something entirely different than what we may think. It proves that there's lots of studies -- some say one thing, some say another. I can produce a study which seems to convincingly prove one side of an issue -- and somebody else can produce a different study which seems to show the opposite.

Audi will be their compliance electric cars. They will use it to build up the technology and industrial base, then shift the rest of the VW brand over to electric when there is sufficient Government pressure (regulation/taxes).

There are upcoming European regulations that limit the CO2 output of cars, but on a fleet level. These Audi cars will go electric so that the rest of the fleet can formally stay not-electric.

Me and my 2 year old had covid. My wife started ivermectin and never got sick. Shared bed and sick 2 year old wants mommy.

Ivermectin didn't work for me (diarrhea) but my fever went from 102.7 down to 99 12 hours after HQC after 6 days of a slow downward spiral (fever kept going up and up every day). So for me, my take is the drugs absolutely worked.
Its not good and one imagines the test with restricted data is something only until they unlock it all.

One size does not fit all, your counter makes sense.

FWIW, my personal observations after putting 80k miles on a BEV:

- Range: I haven't visited the White Mountains in Eastern CA yet because I haven't been able to confidently solve the charging situation. Otherwise, I've ranged from Mendocino to LA to Tahoe with no concerns.

- Acceleration: It's more the punch for me. It's just fun to hit the accelerator and be instantly thrust back into the seat. My 328i was awesome, drove it for 20 years. My BEV is more fun.

- Quiet: Music is important to me while driving. The very quiet ride enhances listening.

- Charging: I did pay ~$2,000 to put a 90 Amp drop into the garage. I'm paying 12 cents/KWh. The only time I need to use a charge station is on long drives.

- Long Service Intervals: It's not the time. It's the cost. By 80k miles on the BMW, I'd spent $5k on brakes, oils changes/tune ups, a radiator and thermostat. The BEV cost about $1k for a windshield. $0 for anything else. Thanks to regen braking, I've got 85% of my original brake pads left.
Anywhere can have plumbing issues and having wide hot water pipes is a problem as it waste energy when they cool down.

That's actually a fantastic tip, thanks!
It's worth noting that mitigations=off doesn't even restore all the performance, compared to kernel versions before Spectre mitigations were added at all.

mitigations=off can only "patch out" some expensive instructions in the syscall path, or sometimes take a different path entirely, but it can't go back to the simple code before this was added in the first place. It also can't undo effects of compiler flags like -mindirect-branch which change the compiled code.

I haven't tested it recently, but when I looked at this more than a year ago, the numbers for a simple syscall (which doesn't do much work beyond the syscall mechanics itself) were something like 130ns, 250ns, 700ns for a "pre mitigation kernel", "new kernel with mitigations=off" and "new kernel with mitigations=on".

Some of the numbers have improved since then as better mitigations have been found, and/or improved CPU support for mitigations via microcode updates.
> The big problem is that at high level so so much is skipped over

This is an issue, but there's an established practice of writing formal sketches where the gaps in the proof are explicitly marked, and future tooling might bring ways to address these gaps once a full formal context is provided.

One issue is that Lean has little or no support for declarative proof, which is by far the most natural setting for these "proof sketches", and also brings other advantages wrt. complex proofs. (Coq has the same issue; some code was written to support declarative proofs, but it was too buggy and bitrotted, so it got removed.)
Yeah, kinda similar to rowhammer. I was just saying the other day that these exploit techniques are totally viable, but there's not much point - privesc is trivial on any desktop environment (linux or Windows, maybe less on osx), and usually not too hard on servers either. Fancy exploits aren't worth it when operating systems are so vulnerable to local attackers.

That said, the mitigations are assurances, and it also lets us point a finger at intel and say "fix your shit you just caused a global performance regression".

I’ve included every double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial I could find of ivermectin as a treatment for covid. Using only double-blind placebo-controlled trials means that only the highest quality studies are included in this meta-analysis, which minimizes the risk of biases messing up the results as far as possible. In order to be included, a study also had to provide mortality data, since the goal of the meta-analysis is to see if there is any difference in mortality
....
What we see is a 62% reduction in the relative risk of dying among covid patients treated with ivermectin. That would mean that ivermectin prevents roughly three out of five covid deaths. The reduction is statistically significant (p-value 0,004). In other words, the weight of evidence supporting ivermectin continues to pile up. It is now far stronger than the evidence that led to widespred use of remdesivir earlier in the pandemic, and the effect is much larger and more important (remdesivir was only ever shown to marginally decrease length of hospital stay, it was never shown to have any effect on risk of dying).

I understand why pharmaceutical companies don’t like ivermectin. It’s a cheap generic drug. Even Merck, the company that invented ivermectin, is doing it’s best to destroy the drug’s reputation at the moment. This can only be explained by the fact that Merck is currently developing two expensive new covid drugs, and doesn’t want an off-patent drug, which it can no longer make any profit from, competing with them.
The drug IS legal in the U.S. lol
