Come on, for a while there we had a “0% ICU capacity” despite empty beds because every COVID patient counted as two people or something [1]. That’s not science.

We did some things right, but the state government really, really is not some bastion of good sense.

I think what they are suggesting is that humans will adapt to the changing environment as we have done over tens of thousands of years of evolution.
Here's the problem, they shove it full of so much shit that no one can agree with it and it doesn't go anywhere. Decriminalize it first, then pass separate legislation to deal with expunging criminal records, then pass banking legislation, and then help communities who needlessly suffered and kind of tackle the issues in bite size chunks. I seriously don't think they have any intention of following through on their election promises. They understand that by trying to shove everything through in one shot it will never get anywhere and that's fine with them.
I was using that more as a example than a citation, but I suppose that wasn't very clear; edited.

Except you often need to rewrite them, so now you've got two places (per 'unit') where you could have introduced a bug. Integration tests and E2E tests are far more valuable because they're attacking it at the business logic side, which is far less volatile, and particularly in a refactor, a useful invariant.
What online class should I take to learn more about this topic in particular?
The number of people needed for a trial depends on the size of the effect.

I think we have a warped idea of that, because of the practice of looking for a barely "statistically significant" effect from a substance that isn't really understood.

If you have something that just eradicates a disease immediately, because you really understand what you are doing, you don't need very many tests to confirm it works.
In the US, you'd be conflating general orders (punishable by Article 92 of the UCMJ applicable to uniformed personnel) and technical orders (something completely different and more akin to a commercial service manual).

Despite seemingly popular belief, uniformed personnel maintaining military equipment simply aren't at liberty to arbitrarily fix shit that breaks however way they please using whatever support equipment/material is readily available.

Think of it this way: the general order issued would be that all uniformed personnel must comply with the explicit language of technical orders in performing routine/unscheduled/critical maintenance of military equipment---no more, no less. In turn, said technical orders specify the applicable troubleshooting, diagnostic, repair, test, documentation, etc. instructions that maintenance personnel must follow and even describe system theory of operations (albeit fairly high level; nowhere near the level of specificity adequate for an engineer).

Consider this[1] junior Air Force crew chief. He's reviewing the maintenance records (specifically, 781A records which document discrepancies, related maintenance and their associated corrective actions; maintained in parallel with mirror digital database equivalent) of an assigned aircraft because he was trained in tech school on compliance of a certain mandatory technical order[2] to do so. Everything he and all his uniformed colleagues are tasked to perform is quite literally "by the book" (of which there are many) and to be executed without deviation. In theory, nothing is left to guess work and everything is traceable, all the way down to what pieceparts of a weapon system can/can't be serviced at specific levels of maintenance. Technical order doesn't exist? Can't do it. Demonstrated proficiency at a routine task? Doesn't matter; the applicable technical order must always be present, open at task and performed to the letter at all times. In this environment, you're not authorized to wipe the ass end of an aircraft without an explicit technical order enumerating step-by-step instructions. That maintenance officer screaming at this guy's senior enlisted supervisor is in fact a logistician in company-grade uniform. Said officer can steer this airman towards court martial for a serious enough technical order deviation, but really can't do shit if exhaustive technical order compliance doesn't result in a desired outcome.

In your example, the system would be deemed "not mission capable", the required part(s) would be placed on order (whose priority shot call would be determined by the production superintendent) and you'll move on to something else until the part(s) arrive and you're directed to resume maintenance action.

"One of the most persistent fallacies is the reflexive association of wealth with wisdom,"

Sometimes, I have the feeling there are too many dumb people with money.

And I don't even mean people like Bezos, but just people with a few millions. Buying a bunch of cars they never use, or house and estate that is much too big for them.
I'm surprised to see the claim that the "buzzword bingo" is somehow at odds with product and business execution after last year.

We just experienced an extended period of time, longer than anyone expected in February 2020, where literally everyone was either unable to come to work for, essentially, medical reasons, or required serious and unprecedented accommodations (distancing/barriers, masks, cleaning, etc.) to do so. Companies that were able to look that reality in the face and admit it were able to keep executing. Companies that couldn't admit the facts struggled in the early days, and their most capable employees had plenty of alternatives.

The more your company is able to handle the fact that different people have different needs, the more effective your company is at delivering business value, for all sorts of reasons. You can adapt to unusual conditions like a pandemic where everyone suddenly has different needs all at once (and the resulting needs of people who live by themselves are very different from the needs of parents of young children, etc.). You can hire talent who is good at the actual job you want them to do without also expecting them to be good at, say, walking around an office. You can retain experienced employees who become disabled. And so forth.
From which the key catchy sample is also used in the recent 'Love Again' by Dua Lipa... which originally dates from Lew Stone & the Monseigneur Band's 'My Woman' from the 1930s. [0]

It was fun listening to the 3 songs in reverse chronological order with my 11 year old, particularly the moment we realised it was played on a muted trumpet originally and sped up with each resampling, eventually sounding more like strings.

I'm not an isolationist. I'm against global military dictatorships. I think that if there were a democratic institution like the UN with required contributions and no single country vetos, we'd have a mostly better system.
Steam Link and Steam Controller were dropped because they weren't selling very well, but the steam link application continues to be updated, and the Steam Controller continued to get firmware updates until 2018.

If this Steam Deck thing sells well, they'll probably make another one. If it sells poorly they'll probably keep the software updated and use put discounts on it to clear out stock.
The idea that medicine is an objective science that we've fully "solved" is much more harmful.

There are a number of symptoms that we can group into "conditions," yet have a murky etiology.

That's not to say there isn't snake oil out there. There's certainly a ton of that as well. But medical problems aren't always a simple "solve for x" - there is a TON that we still don't know about how the human body works.
The Austrian view of economics (and of human philosophy), when I finally sat down and read through the material, made so much sense to me and deeply affected me. It clarified several things I had been feeling about the world that I couldn’t fully comprehend, and made me feel much less stressed and more content.

The Malthusian (doom scrolling) impulse is stronger than ever. I feel happier not subscribing to the “end of the world” views that are prevalent everywhere.

I don't think this should be allowed. Intel is entered the public fab market with an insane amount of production capacity, they shouldn't also be allowed to gobble up the 3rd place industry supplier.
Would be nice if while they're at it they let us migrate our message history between iOS/Android properly. The paid 3rd party solution I used didn't work, by the time I was done messing with it I'd already been using Whatsapp for a week and had to value the new history over the old and not risk wiping it out.
This is very cool, and while people here seem to be confused about the value of art or whether this was needed, a huge amount was learned in the modelling, fabrication and testing process. This is art with benefits, and it looks stunning too.
Notice how everybody seems to have accepted that non-mainstream positions, sources, and interest-groups must be banned, and now they're simply arguing about who should be doing it and how?

This is not OK.

TI has a bunch of fabs in Dallas, Maine, Germany, Japan and China. Most of the Dallas fabs have been part of TI since the beginning - some since the 1970s. They're building a new 300mm fab north of Dallas, and just acquired the Intel / Micron JV fab in Lodi Utah. They got out of the advanced logic game a while ago, and closed down one of their R&D fabs in ~2007.

National was acquired by TI ~8yr ago.
My takeaway is the illegal logging in Siberia, until now I believe there were just rumours. IMO the issue needs visibility as much as logging in Amazon area, but remote location makes it much harder.

I agree that IKEA, possibly unfairly, might be used as a big name to attract attention. They seem, according to the article, to have dropped the relevant suppliers.
Nintendo sells its consoles at a profit. It's why their hardware is always "behind" the other guys who are, as you say, selling you $4 of power for $3 and hoping to make it up over time on ecosystem purchases.
I would have taken the fabs for half of that! :-)

I hear you, and I regret that the Environmental movement feels the need to ratchet everything up to a catastrophe. But surely if “peak” means anything it means that we used to grow, now we contract, and therefore peak oil has already occurred.
Beyond cryptography, there is the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, which plays an important role in encoding Gödel numbers in Gödel's theorem.

In algebra, the integers mod p are a finite field (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division are defined) if and only if p is prime.

Primality in algebra also exists in a more general form with prime ideals. An ideal is the set of elements of a commutative ring in which any element of the ideal multiplied by any element of the ring is still in the ideal; there is a sort of 'closed' property. Even numbers form an ideal because if you multiply any number by an even number, you get an even number. For a prime ideal, if ab is in the ideal, a is in the ideal or b is (similar to how if a prime number divides ab, it divides a or b).

They have a number of interesting properties. For example, for a ring homomorphism (a function from one ring to another that preserves relationships between elements of the two rings), the pre-image of a prime ideal is also a prime ideal.

The purchase would both increase Intel's manufacturing capacity and pricing power. There used to be half a dozen x86 manufacturers and I'm sure they've enjoyed having it down to two (especially when one of them was weak) much more. What's not to love, from their perspective?
How would you solve this problem? Presumably the engagement algorithms look at posts people share more frequently, reshare, and share to large numbers of people. Maybe there is a rate (virality/time) metric involved as well. This gives them some priority in the news feed which causes more sharing in a positive viral feedback loop. That would have to be filtered by NLP or image recognition and possibly a source reputation score.

I imagine there are a host of bots that instantly reshare things..

"Most of the allure of the information age is that ideas can be shared among huge groups of people. But among the superintelligent, that’s often not the case – they’re speaking a different language."

I've found this to be true. There's an art to taking extremely complex ideas and distilling them down into something simple. In this, Feynman was a virtuoso.
More fundamentally, I would imagine that “intelligence” is an ill-defined concept unless one is willing to define it through the propensity for good performance in a certain kind of activity. At that point, the relation is tautologically true. If it isn’t, it can be argued that the wrong/useless measure of intelligence is being used.

But surely this is precisely how people begin to believe in any conspiracy theory? How many flat earthers would tell exactly the same story? How many anti-vax? Clearly humans begin to believe the evidence for something when they are exposed to it a lot. And this is what the Internet provides for every conceivable theory from Pizza Gate to Global Warming. “I found the evidence compelling” isn’t sufficient for finding the truth, unfortunately.

Kuiper and Blue Origin are independent companies. Amazon owns Kuiper. Amazon does not own Blue Origin, Jeff Bezos owns that independently of Amazon. Despite having some ownership in common, they are legally required to operate at arms length.

Blue Origin is two years older than SpaceX, and yet has achieved far less than SpaceX has in the same timeframe despite a two year head start. Over that timeframe, SpaceX has successfully delivered 124 Falcon 9 payloads to orbit. Blue Origin hasn't sent anything to orbit yet, New Glenn is targeted to "late 2022" but most observers think it won't launch until 2023 (or even later).

Blue Origin is the one that needs to prove itself here. SpaceX has a proven capacity to deliver payload to orbit. With Starship, that capacity is going to greatly increase. But even if Starship runs into trouble and gets delayed, they still have a proven capacity with Falcon 9 to rely on while any issues with Starship gets delayed. Blue Origin is working through the issues on New Glenn without any fallback.
I bet at some point in the next 20 years we will be going back to game rooms, so you go to a place where you pay to sit in a fixed PC with no available USB ports or any way to use cheats, including cameras to catch anyone whose hands movements don't match his digital input, and there you play against other people in the same network/brand of game rooms (not necessarily the same physical location).
It wasn't hard to see this as a potential (albeit entirely uncertain) possibility if you weren't extremely impassioned by partisan politics.

I didn't mean a contractor in the army quarters. Being in the field close to soldiers should help - in case of farmers, it's as if John Deere's certified mechanic (of course with all training, tools and spare parts, including and especially all software-related) was on the farm during harvest period. However, there shouldn't be a situation when the equipment can be fixed - i.e. it's not destroyed enough - and it's not because of software. Software is something which is relatively easy to change - I'm a software guy - and it has this property and advantage over hardware. So if it's software which misbehaves, it should be double duty of such a contractor - this time the whole company, not only the person in the army position - to help with everything, in a timely manner. In farm it's to allow harvesting to go with less problems, in fight it's to avoid losses among soldiers.

I'm mostly talking about the whole company approach to such time-sensitive customers.
> From the speakers side they have to be aware of their feelings in the first place, and then additionally what needs are prompting those feelings, to even start to be able to communicate that.

This is exactly my point in terms of exclusion, by enforcing such a communication style you would effectively shut down this discussion (depending on the people involved) before it even begins.

My argument is that intentions of "openness, honesty, and genuineness" (in other words, transparency, candor, and trust) are by themselves enough to establish effective communication without requiring a framework that potentially shuts people out.
