Scientists Recover 15,000-Year-Old Human DNA Just from Dirt
A deer had her babies this spring right in front of my window.

All day I noticed a deer checking out my yard. I had no idea she was looking for a safe spot to give birth.

I took a nap, and woke up to a wet fawn looking into the house.

It looked like she had the other one behind the fence.

My first instinct was she abandoned them, but I was completely wrong. She had her babies, cleaned them up, and she dissapears for a few hours. She does not want to bring any attention to her babies. Fawn don't have much of an odor when born, so it is to there benefit she isn't around except for feeding.

Every night she would return to her young. It was pretty amazing.

They slowly grew. The one by the window would only get up when mom came by--roughly 2x day. The babies are helpless to any predators. That is supposedly why the mom keeps them in different spots.

Anyways, they now just visit. It's a good feeling they are healthy, and seem happy.

That's the point. Most people want adult education so they have comfortable lives. Learning about history is a luxury pursuit really for people who are already comfortable and have spare time.

So you really need education that leads to recognised qualifications.

Totally, I accept this is true, but it’s possible imho that gut biome influences this.

There’s also the fat distribution question. I often wonder about differences in visceral fat.
Additionally, “With us or against us” isn’t an ideal stance in a region as old and complicated. Oversimplification of complex issues seemed the method of dealing with allies and enemies.
"Gibberish": Plato, Russell, Penrose and Tegmark?

Made of math is as Aristotle noted: "All is number" — Platonic-Pythagoreanism was at the heart of classical civilization and the enlightenment.

I can only suppose that there is something about these ideas that deeply disturbs or even frightens. But I wouldn't dismiss them as gibberish.
Agreed. It's incredibly difficult to know what the audience wants, at least until you have a loyal community following (fans). Even then it's not perfect.
There are no mechanisms in place for the generated wealth to benefit the replaced people, the wealth will go mainly to vanishingly few persons self selected to be okay with gross economic inequality.

That hasn't stopped the march of progress so far. Conveniently (or not), humanoid robots do not appear likely for the foreseeable future. But keep worrying, the problem you list are appearing in other fashions anyway.

What makes you think India is building an empire?

I believe that they are focussed on lifting their masses out of poverty.

the point is probably how every US diplomat around the globe probably goes to sleep every night thinking "I hope I wake up tomorrow with without permanent brain damage"
No, it’s particularly destructive to anyone who starts out low wage. In other words, anyone who starts as the working poor.

Instead of othering the other poor, by just talking about the working poor, there is more likely to be progress for the poor.
Good point about the tight loop. For the other part, my gut feeling would be that there is a "base language" that most developers are familiar with, and accept the performance/other things tradeoffs of, but for more obscure features, people are explicit about these points because they are less known.
Lithium is not actually rare. I think this is a big source of continuing confusion in discussions on battery-electric electric vehicles (of all types: bikes, cars, trucks, buses, vans, airplanes, ships, trains, etc) and renewable energy (grid storage).

Production capacity equals demand, roughly. That should not be surprising as production capacity costs money and you don't invest in more production capacity than you have demand. Proven reserves ALSO are some fairly low multiple of demand, for related reasons.
When I get a couple of ectopics in a row I already feel like I'm about to keel over, I imagine that even a few missed beats would be immediately obvious and dreadful. Blood pressure would start to drop super fast and I suspect your brain won't be too pleased with that. Well done on surviving that!

GYM is not exclusively for robotics - it’s for reinforcement learning in simulated environments, which I’m sure they will keep doing. Also it looks like it is still being maintained, so not really sure what you mean.
Huh, you’re right. I thought something was off about the video when I listened to it. Although the version I linked calls itself a remix in the description, it sounds like someone just played a MIDI version with new samples. I’m not sure I’d even call that a remix.
Worth noting that your CO2 emission value for gasoline powered vehicles is tailpipe emissions, the total value (well to wheels) should be very roughly 25% higher.

>The general counter to this is that one is a privilege and the other is a right.

True. People on both sides of the isle use the "privilege not a right" counter on various issues.

>Usually any hurdle to exercising a constitutionally protected is going to receive some pushback. The same goes for the firearm registration issue.

Exactly. Owning a firearm is a right so this example still works here.
It also lacks an impenetrable safety section on the multiple hazard environment and a ridiculous preface explaining how amazing the authors are.

That seems so much more complicated and expensive than just offering compensation and bonus based on a standard scale. Obviously there's some wiggle room within the pay scales to reward higher performing employees but to have totally different compensation schemes for each employee sounds extremely complicated and unnecessary.
So it is happening to US diplomats on two unrelated locations, which indicates that the common element is the US. What if it's as a result of a US spy-craft instrument/substance side effect that potentially was not disclosed to the diplomats who suffer?
I investigated the dynamo solution, but it turns out that modern dynamos have a large airgap which ensures that you can only get a few watts of energy out of them (so you don't overload the lights).

The last naval fleet engagement was the battle of Leyte Gulf in WWII.
I have not read the article you linked, but the book by the same authors (Barkema and Newman, Monte Carlo Methods in Statistical Physics) is fantastic. It's the best introduction to these methods for the mathematically-minded that I've seen, in the sense that it gives quasi-rigorous justifications for a lot of claims, but at the same time doesn't get bogged down in rigor.

They mention in the book that simultaneous updates with a checkboard are in fact OK. One just has to make the checkboard out of large squares of spins instead of the single spins the author of this article uses, and occasionally move the squares around to prevent boundary effects.
Hehe, not practical on my daily commute. It also doesn't work with strong tailwinds.

In May 1940, as the British were evacuating Dunkirk, Churchill met the Cabinet to discuss a possible armistice with Germany, mediated through Mussolini.

At that point, UK was the only significant power fighting the Germans. Churchill prevailed against Halifax, but if the decision went the other way, Germans would have uncontested control over most of the continent either directly or through satellite states, with exception of the USSR and small holdouts like Malta.

I no longer believe in blameless post mortem as a general rule. I have, through experience, come to believe that the contexts where blameless post mortems work are the contexts where literally anything works because they are organizations that have high hiring bars and high expectations. My current employer is not one of them; we are a mountain of mediocrity and all blameless post mortems do is act as an excuse to avoid raising the bar.
Without hills the only way is to ride in a suburban or rural area. You can do 25-30mph safely for miles between lights there which, should be hard enough for most people. Big cities are fundamentally not safe serious athletic cycling, anaerobic or otherwise. At best you spike your heartrate sprinting between lights then stress your body with high HR waiting at a light. Or guys will do near 30mph in a paceline around Central Park and act offended when some tourist steps out in front of them.
My guess would be it is their own security. "Elsewhere in the world" also includes New York City.
maybe if you walk into a community and immediately disrespect their rules you shouldn't expect a particularly warm welcome

India has a population of well over a billion people. IITs admit only about 5000 students per academic year, from about 100K students applying, across all disciplines. If you find all other students from India not qualified, maybe there is something seriously wrong with your candidate outreach, or you hire from a very exclusive pool even stateside.
Ask HN: How to value share options for pre IPO Employeer
Per multiple HN disucssions I have understood to value equity in startups a 0$.
I am working for a startup that is on track to IPO within the next year or so. I have some share options as part of my contract that allows me to buy shares at a certain strike price.
I am in the dark on how I should value this.
Are these share options actually transferred 1:1 into a share after an IPO? Is there a possibility of a reverse split?
I am quite lost on how to value this as I am considering moving to a new company and want to understand if I am potentially making a financial mistake by leaving.
Can anyone point me to some good ressources on this?
Thanks
if you're wondering why lots of these differentiable pipelines are tasked with learning physics (and what that has to do with google) the answer is that this is "compute oriented development". by "compute oriented development" i mean that since google has access to unlimited compute they can use this compute to run physics kinematics solvers (ie pde solvers) that are then used to generate training data for RL models. what's the point of the RL model if the physics model already exists and gives you high fidelity simulations? well it's clearly an easy paper to write... but other than that, some people claim the RL models are faster than the physics solver. i guess that's true if you don't take into account the millions of hours of compute spent on the solvers themselves.
I think the title implicitly meant “good”, as in “you think it’s a good idea until you press it against the grindstone that is reality”.

Also I think these issues arise at the database because that’s were the write concurrency is pushed.

I don't know this persons case but some of the people I knew really needed the problem stated for them to truly acknowledge it. My close friend had a video game addiction and refused to see it as a problem.
The fat/glucose ratio depends on effort intensity and individual physiology. At very low aerobic intensities metabolically healthy people get most of their energy from fat. As intensity increases the mix shifts until you're burning almost 100% glucose and 0% fat near max anaerobic effort. This makes sense because fat metabolism requires more oxygen and you hit a limit on how much oxygen you can pull into your bloodstream. Once stored glucose is depleted then either you need to consume some carbs, or drop the intensity way down. The point at which that happens varies widely based on multiple variables.
Anyone knows why people decide to do this kind of time consuming work? Is the world getting hard enough that there is no alternative?

Whenever I see people working really hard in other parts of the world, especially when the country is filled with other opportunities, I always wonder is it just everyone else that is raising the bar and now the standard is very time consuming work.

For example, there's year long tourism on Madeira. Everyone there is working hard all year long, charging for tourist services very cheaply. Yet there are many examples of places with year long tourism, but you can still find mass closures during siesta.

Everyone, through culture, decided not to overwork and there's no one "hard-working" enough to have their business open during siesta. No employee will agree to work during siesta, similarly employers do not expect their business to be open.
Are there any documented cases of permanent brain damage from these "attacks"?
> Which makes it all the more impressive that it's quoting Tacitus and such like.

There's a common trope about "8th-grade" education in the US, and a fairly common response to it, e.g., https://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/K-12/p_test/1895_Eightgr_test.h....

There are, of course, reasons for the differences that aren't merely reactionary "people are dumb now" or "technology FTW!!1!" I suspect some of the quoting of Tacitus is due to a more classical emphasis, even in early education (see, for example, the McGuffey Readers[1]), where Latin and Greek were more widely studied, and their authors more integrated into the grade-level curriculum. I didn't read Herodotus or Tacitus until college (a classics course) and was pleasantly surprised by how readable and accessible they were.

I essentially always have a paper map with me unless I know the place in question (and know it's on OSM). For relatively advanced hiking? I'll have a paper map and compass and will have looked up the details of routes in a guide book or online.

But, yes, I am older although probably more to the point I lead group hikes so I'm a bit anal about prep and safety. And hike in winter when electronics are especially suspect.

I would never consider heading up Ben Nevis based on Google Maps.
A master’s in physics is usually a sort of consolation prize to people who do not finish their PhD. Like you said, you either need a BS or PhD.
My mother was an accountant. And I've made a point to get in the know with the accountants at the places I've worked.

I know what an accountant thinks about the idea that maybe you could buy power at 2pm for $200/mwh. And then sell it SIX HOURS later for $400/mwh. Bonus when I guesstimate depreciation for a 1 mwh of batteries I get about $75/day. So not hard to see how you get double digit returns a day.

Assume batteries cost $150/kwh. So 1000 kwh worth costs $150,000. At 2% interest you can finance that for $2200/month or $73/day.

Pencils out.
After some looking around, it is suggested (but never started outright) that the concerns were specifically related to the terms that Warner Bros layed out, NOT to motion capture in general. In fact, he did motion capture for a video game that came out the next year. The game was developed by a Sony studio based out of California.

The article is talking about Oracle RAC, and the "crossover" he is talking about was usually really quick Infiniband, not a crossover cable (so, a separate NIC for good reason!). The person that wrote the article doesn't seem to understand RAC enough to actually comment properly. A properly tuned RAC instance will scale horizontally very very well.
> Mountaineering groups said the dotted line crossed "potentially fatal" steep, rocky and pathless terrain, while a suggested walking route for a different mountain, An Teallach, would lead people over a cliff

I've climbed An Teallach, just over 20 years ago, with a group of student friends. To use the British English vernacular, it really is the "arse end of nowhere".

With hindsight, despite our best efforts, we weren't particularly well prepared, and had we got into any kind of trouble - broken ankle or worse - it would have been a _very_ long walk for one of us to walk out to civilization and fetch help.

It tells me really quite a lot that your response to an article about the British empire is to bash Europe.

There is no "EU Empire" any more than the US is an empire composed of its states. The fact is that the EU is a political entity which confers (nominal) equality on its members. There's no colonial style relationship there at all. Nobody is being robbed of their rights except British people who can't use the ECJ anymore.

I don't know if you're intentionally misreading my post, or if I didn't make it clear enough - although I did clarify in a reply.

The hate-mongering is from the opinion shows that made themselves the heroic, oppressed "real-fact" people by constantly talking about it, by making it a conspiracy when it wasn't really, it just didn't matter at the time. Read my other reply, I'm not going to type it all out.

No, it isn't hate-mongering to wonder if the virus came from a lab. It's hate-mongering to play the victim, to scream "conspiracy!" as a strawman to millions of people, and have people going batshit crazy about it when it doesn't really matter. In other words, it's not the question that is the problem, it's the framing that Fox and Co. put around their narrative.

Don't even talk about "the left". It's not a monolith. I didn't talk about "conservatives" writ-large, my point is against the Fox op-ed cult - a very specific subset of the right. Please limit your assumptions as much as possible.

And really, it's makes zero sense to make the sweeping accusations against everyone on a side of a political spectrum. "The left" etc. is something to avoid. Much as I think the federal GOP is actively working against American values for the sake of its own power, I don't blame every conservative voter for their lack of options, nor do I think every Republican voter is literally Mitch McConnell.
What if they're jusg English speakers who saw the news and got food poisning (or who knows what)... Why is this such fertile ground for conspiracy theories? Is there some kind of assumption diplomats and spies never get sick with unidentied diseases like the rest of us?
