It's a real shame that nowadays 7 year old devices are considered to be

Fuck google etc. and this whole throw-away society.
I have a phone I bought around 2015. It has Android 4.4 and the vendor provided only minor bug fixes for a very short time since then. I think it is quite typical for Android phones. HW is still OK but more and more apps drop support for such old OS.

> The paper also don’t claim this as the contribution so this article is just… misinformation?

Given the website URL, I’m not the least bit surprised this is over hyped.
As an aside: Media Bias/Fact Check is not a reputable source for measurements of media bias. They might get some ratings correct, but I also see them regularly basing ratings off of a few cherry-picked articles rather than a broader body of articles, in a way that suggests to me that they are purposeful in painting a selective picture of bias. They don't have a systematic methodology to determine bias. The Columbia Journalism Review wrote about this a few years ago as they were gaining popularity (https://www.cjr.org/innovations/measure-media-bias-partisan....), noting that their ratings are basically the opinions of a small group of people. All Sides has a better bias ratings database (https://www.allsides.com/media-bias/media-bias-ratings) and is more honest about what their methodology is and what the limitations are (https://www.allsides.com/media-bias/media-bias-rating-method...).
I think you can go a long way just by skipping the bottom 10% in any market. A £10 pair of jeans is always going to be compromised but there won't be much difference between a £20 pair and £100 pair.
>the breadth and detail of history makes generalisations such as ‘western history begins with the Greeks’ a more palatable launchpad for consumption than breaking down the nuance that inevitably unfolds on more profound study

Absolutely. Your comment on Alexander is correct. It doesn't explain why we still do not teach pre Greek/Roman as a foundation. Yes Alexander encouraged the severing of cultural-historical links; today we can look for and around that, as we know a lot about the pre Greek/Roman civs, and they were arguably more important for setting the civilizational foundations upon which more fortunate individuals copied from.

I guess I wish the launchpad was "begin with the Sumerians".
Usually when you sign an exclusive license, you also have the ability to sub-license/assign it.

Creditors/investors don't like backing something if the asset disappears if the business itself doesn't work out.
> apply subjective criteria like "culture fit", who has "leadership potential", etc, and this is where bias creeps in

This would no longer be the example I described. This is why people who support something approximating a meritocracy are typically in favor of any efforts to remove bias, and move in a direction of blind hiring. It is disingenuous to say that this is the objective of those in favor of affirmative action, however, as color/gender blindness is not their goal at all. The example here of getting rid of the SAT is a perfect example of that.

> you believe that all groups are equally capable, and differences in outcomes indicate how much bias is left to overturn

And this is the fundamental difference. Advocates of affirmative action/CRT believe that different population outcomes can be used as a de facto post hoc rationalization that the system which produced the outcomes must be necessarily biased in favor or against the groups. This is fallacious thinking. The conclusion doesn't even follow your own premise, and your premise is simply an assertion of what you believe to be true.

"[I] believe that all groups are equally capable, therefore differences in outcomes indicate that systems are biased." This is a fallacious statement. Capability is a minor, minor portion of the equation. Interest, culture, behavior, geography, income, wealth, history... Where do these fit into your model?

Let me tell you something about hiring. I've been responsible for hiring engineers on many occasions, and still am. If I were instructed to achieve, for example, 50/50 parity between male and female engineers: I would have to hire 100% of the female engineer applicants. If I were instructed to make sure that 13% of the engineers were black (to be in line with population levels): I would have to hire 100% of the black engineer applicants.

Your de facto reasoning that the reason that engineers are overwhelmingly white/east Asian/Indian/Eastern European is that the hiring system is favored as such. The pool of applicants, however, skews even further towards this representation. Almost all companies are already trying to capture a greater proportion of other demographics, and are simply unable to do so. But in regards to sacrificing proficiency, if you understand the proportionality of the applicant pool, your argument of not sacrificing proficiency completely falls apart. It's as I said, if I were to get 50/50 female representation, I would literally have to get rid of proficiency criteria altogether and literally hire every woman on the spot. It would absolutely be a massive hit to proficiency. That isn't saying that women are less proficient at engineering.

Lastly, I'm curious if you care about this for anything else. For example, Indians are extremely over represented in medicine as compared to their population. Filipinos are extremely over represented in nursing as compared to their population. Because you believe all group are equally capable, you surely believe that a cabal of Filipino nurses and their in group preferences are responsible for maintaining the hegemony of Filipino nurse supremacy, correct?

I thought this was no longer the case, as NASA had determined that Falcon Heavy was not going to have to travel to Venus to get a gravity boost from it first, and could go directly to Europa like SLS.

Whats the point of that? You dont need to exchange phone numbers for telegram just the @username and only one side needs to know the others username.

And once you have a chat with someone both can share their own contact directly in the chat with 2 clicks and add it with 2 clicks as well.

(which is still rather useless because there is no real benefit from adding someone as contact. But I guess if you want to store number then this is easy)

If "the web" means the internet then that's a lie. I remember it being available around 1995.
And I remember smart, friendly, educated people pre y2k, mostly.
I remember searching and finding meaningful facts as opposed to opinions and half truths post y2k.
I remember everything being freely available as opposed to the pay2 unculture of today.
I remember a colorful internet of individual sites that was fun to browse as opposed of the uniformity and censorship of FacebookTwitterShit.

I remember the internet as a unregulated space the majority didn't know or care about where you could do whatever you want.

True freedom is what this felt like. The world was different too.
More understanding of how people are and behave or misbehave.
Today's netizens are ignorant assholes for the most part and we are at war with each other.
HN for instance doesn't allow you to write more than 2 or 3 comments in a certain time period.
Ridiculous. Imagine that in the internet pre y2k.

The internet today is a huge pile of garbage.
> Yes, different situations require different solutions. I think most people learn this by the time they reach puberty.

Not so sure about most people learning this...though, I will say I'm probably a late bloomer compared to most on HN :)

What you state makes sense. I think my tone was dismissive of the idea that running your own machines is worthwhile. To add to that, I haven't (yet) worked on large-scale systems so my comment is purely speculation.
Nobody is arguing that it's not possible. We're just saying it's a huge hassle and that even being willing to go through the hassle on every boot is itself a red flag.
Totally agree that HN checks a lot of the same boxes, but there are some significant differences.

1. Advertising. (Or lack thereof)

2. Moderation. Downvotes here literally slowly erase content that the community doesn’t like; I think this compliments the swift hand of dang in a great way.

3. Participation. This is just a WAG, but i think more HN users post comments or submit
stories than Twitter users tweet. There is a very low percentage of users posting the vast majority of tweets. I like HN because I can actually interact, not just follow.

We really had realized most of the promise of online socializing with forums 20 years ago, IMO. Twitter is exhausting.
I think a definition of Conway's is that there is no mathematical function possible in principle, assuming his three axioms SPIN, TWIN, and FIN, that predicts a free outcome.
We can’t make them the way they used to make them, but likely could do at least as good fairly easily _if_ sufficient funds were made available.

I’m basing that on https://arstechnica.com/science/2013/04/how-nasa-brought-the..., which tells me we now know quite well how these engines (or rather: the particular one they looked at) were constructed. I also get the impression we could create those parts using other means such as 3D printing.
I was thinking what if this startup doesn't even exist in 5 years. And what if this replacement part thing becomes done by 20 other OEMs. But I don't see how the widely copied design from the 2008 MacBook would matter.

Maybe there were a few (enough?) out there that will pay stupid high prices for a slightly better PV.

Where did that land come from?
Regarding language use - the article describes this program as one of many "trying to address police violence and systemic racism following George Floyd's murder". That's the basis for my stating that discussion of the program is tied to police violence and racism. Later in the comment, I sum that up as "calling the police racist murderers" which I rephrased to elucidate the problem some people might have with the description, but which is also a faithful rephrase as systemically racist and violent police that commit murder are pretty clearly racist police murders.

I can't imagine what other language in my comment you might have a problem with. Please let me know if that wasn't it. I would say that I am not using any poor, inaccurate, or unfair language.
I wasn't clear enough in my comment; it's to crowded to just toss your game on the Steam store and expect it to magically generate worthwhile sales.

You're entirely correct about being featured/recommended, and there are ways to game the platform at your release to amplify these effects.

But my basic point stands; you can't just toss a game on Steam and expect good results.

Between the low barrier to entry on the store ($100) and engines like unity/gamemaker enabling basically anyone to have something to toss on the store, it's overflowing with shovelware. How many reskinned game engine tutorials alone are out there for sale as games? It's a complete mess.

Here, we are asked to declare it for our tax income.
In other countries, the use is forbidden.
So, in any case, the state tries to keep control on it, which limits usability and adoption.

I think it could be a protection against inflation or deflation, (even if it has its own volatility), as it is not indexed on a specific money providing a form of local stability.

However, PoS or PoW, it is almost the same. Big/rich have the capability to invest / buy machines while poor cannot.
So one or the other option seems equivalent.
Of course. But having done multiple iterations of both, I will never, ever share walls again. With neighbors I can plant a hedge or close the facing windows. It’s not even close.

> It is not fun but frustrating to work in Rust, and contrary to C, you are limited by the language/compiler on what you can do.

People who have had prior exposure to C tend to find Rust frustrating.

People who have not had prior exposure to C tend to find it fun, and an average programmer of this sort can fearlessly write bare-metal code that beats the code of the best C programmers writing in C in safety and rivals it in performance.

Systems programming has been fundamentally changed by Rust. It's become as accessible and democratized as web programming, no longer the sole province of a cadre of elite C programmers.
I fear that it may be as simple as that. Because if that's the cause, I'm not sure we can fix it.
I'm just grateful I'm not a core Python dev after reading this thread. I've never seen so much negativity concentrated in one place in quite some time, for a feature of a programming language which is fairly innocuous.

I think there is a meaningful difference between social media that centers the person posting vs. centering the content. Twitter centers the person, HN centers the content. One is not uniformly better than the other, but the UI/UX differences promote very different cultures. Imagine the discontent if HN people were forced into a Twitter or Reddit style UI that spends lots of screen real estate on the person posting.

You can, but sometimes it’s not ideal.

I ran into this when A and B had many derived classes. I wanted to put A and it’s derived classes in one module, and B and it’s derived classes in another. It was messy.

I wound up putting A and B in a single module and having a separate one for the derived classes. Not ideal.
Many of the papers I'm interested in are published long ago and the authors dead.

For some reason, they're also slow to respond to emails.

For any papers published before 1965, even with maximal renewals available at the time of publication, the works would now be in the public domain under copyright law at the time of publication. Otherwise, many works published prior to 1976 which were either only renewed once or never registered would similarly have lapsed to public domain, or always been so.

That's a huge effectively-lost trove of knowledge.

Comparatively speaking, at least gender-wise, this data should be taken with a grain of salt.

Males are historically more effective at killing themselves. This data only looks at ED visits and you don't go to the hospital when you're clearly dead. And if you assume "suicide attempt" is using the technical definition [1], they're only looking at ED visits where the patient did not die.

Males aged 15 to 24 were 4x as likely to succeed in killing themselves in 2019. [2]

A number of the biggest coronavirus subreddits also openly censor articles and ban users for the slightest violation of their biases. For example if you share articles or studies that suggest lockdowns are illogical, or that the virus may have originated from a lab leak, or that the infection fatality rate is low, you would see your discussions closed and potentially get a permanent ban from those subreddits. Perhaps the mods of some of these subreddits have relaxed things over time, but the rampant censorship practiced by mods on Reddit often creates echo chambers and prevents society from seeking the truth more efficiently.

I generally solve this problem by having a module specifically containing the abstract base classes of each of the classes I will be working with that implements either no or bare minimum functionality for these objects. That way, any other module can import this module and have visibility of every other class I will be working with.

Bexsero (MenB) is two doses given 4 weeks apart.

For children receiving their first vaccines for the flu (whether inactivated or live), it is recommended they receive two doses 4 weeks apart.

Lots of the early childhood vaccines have minimum spacings of 4 weeks, but are given at 2, 4, and 6 months simply because of standard pediatric followup visit schedules: DTaP, Hib, IPV, PCV13, and Rotavirus. HepB has a first dose at birth and the second at 4 weeks -- 2 months.

Smart for the Colombian Gov, this should attract investment from International Corps/Partners.

Why grow and harvest in Canada/USA/Europe where everything from real estate to wages increases the cost of the product. I suspect as the Cannabis industry matures we will see many Corps move their operations (growing/process) to countries that have a long history of cultivation, expertise, good climate, cheap labor, etc.
