I had a chance to compare the systems, too but my conclusions are completely different. Teachers at the physics/math lyceum I studied at were emotionally unstable psychopaths with mood swings. They could switch from calm "kids, if you don't understand something, please, don't hesitate to ask" to the screaming at the top of their lungs of "are you a stupid imbecile? what a moron you're to ask that" just a minute later.

It was all about rote memorization. Rules, theorems, axioms. Not just the way to prove or principle behind, but the textual representation (to the teacher's liking) word-to-word. Of course, there was a division of students into multiple groups, and those with important parents had an easier time. Any of their bullshit was always graded as "A". But those actively disliked could get "F" for a perfect work. A dot at the end of the sentence is missing? "Go back to the kindergarten where you belong". Something is crossed? "What is it, a toilet paper? Go use it for wiping your ass" (they could tear it apart in front of you). So, the representation/look of the work always came first. A teacher was a lawyer, prosecutor, and a judge at the same time (just what some Americans wish to have as a state): you don't like something, go f___ yourself.

The textbooks. If you compare the best Soviet ones with some average American, you can come to the conclusion that Soviet are so good ("exercises are something to behold", "high quality in their expression", etc). But the best American books wouldn't give a single chance to the Soviet ones. In fact, even some Russian Empire textbooks so much better than Soviet (not to mention Russian), they are getting popular among parents for homeschooling (schools can't use books unauthorized by the ministry of education). The best American and pre-Soviet textbooks are born out of lectures, author's personal experience with students. Soviet authors are disinterested observers who don't care. Textbooks, apparently, were the product of central planning like process (so they were getting worse and worse, the further they went from Russian Empire epoch).

And finally, a thing that really deeply touched me at a western University. A teacher when asked a question once said "I don't know, I have to check it". Holly f... Someone who openly admitted they don't know something, no freaking way! Back at the lyceum it would be "Shut your mouth with your stupid question, we don't have time for that". Then she would find the answer and during the next class say something like "now when we have a few minutes, I'll do you a favor, here is the answer... What a moron you're not to be able to conceive this yourself".
But overall, it's much smoother in Pantheon than in Gnome 40.
The OP gets away with that argument, because many people who have such images are also, hopefully, also minors.

However, this is NOT the use case being applied for here. Holding those images, which are not part of known CP, will not be an issue, brining it up is a red herring. ~The issue most people have fruitfully started discussing is the scanning of content on your own phone.

Secondly - the correlation between holding known CP and child molestation IS, sadly, high.

In the story his miscalculation results in 37 hours of fuel. With no dead man’s switch he dies from lack of oxygen to the brain, and the ship just keeps happily accelerating until the fuel is exhausted.

For a long enough trip, anything over 1G results in your passengers and payload having to deal with excess stresses, up to and including ship damage or passenger death. In the Expanse they are quick to point out the increased chance of stroke due to prolonged and excessive acceleration.

1G is nice because you can move like you would on the surface.
In really complex systems, there's the ugly case where some middleware needs to fetch something from another service to start up... and then that fetch times out. So the middleware ends up in an invalid state.

This is a distributed-systems design faux-pas. Systems that need information to start up, should have some sort of burned in or persistently-cached stale version of that needed information, such that they can start up without being able reach out for it. They should then probe for the newest info until they have it. (See e.g. Elixir's tzdata library.)

If you don't do this, and instead put a synchronous remote call in the critical path for a service's startup, then you're turning "degraded performance" into a real outage condition, entirely unnecessarily.

It's actually not that common, because you need to get to a certain scale before things like this start happening, and that scale brings with it hiring people who know about scenarios like this. But sadly, it does still happen sometimes.

1) Actually intuitive (this is rare—if you think your novel idea is, it likely isn't),

3) Everything else

GUI approaches, ranked best to worst. Something from #3 should always strongly demonstrate that it's actually in category #1 before displacing something from category #2, or otherwise provide immense value.

UI churn keeping interfaces mostly stuck in #3 is a curse on computing.

[EDIT] Oh, and, an adjacent principal: consistency of placement & behavior beats everything else. Which is another strong point against modifying UIs without very good reason.
Smaller batteries are also lighter, which translates to increased range. It's a really interesting cost, weight, range, (etc.) optimization problem.
> It is really important to apply just a little bit of science to this before voicing opinion.

That is what you have done, as opposed to thousands of scientists and engineers and others that are applying a lot of science to this. Hence your generally poor conclusion from poor rigor and understanding.

There is no arguing that reducing and "fixing" anthropocentric climate change will require more energy expenditure than creating it in the first place. But that doesn't mean it is a priori impossible, and doesn't mean it will take 50,000 years to do so. This isn't a binary situation. It isn't "do nothing" or "repair all the damage done in a short amount of time". Those aren't the only options. This is hideously complex situation and problem and we likewise need a complex, multi-pronged approach going forward. CO2 reduction, mitigation, and fixation to start. Ecosystem collapse prevention and mitigation. Handling population. Massive education to handle people like you (and worse).

Just because we already have flour spread around the room, doesn't mean we can't clean it up, and certainly doesn't mean we should continue to spread more flour around the room (let alone at an increasing rate!)

The story around this is interesting.

So the main job of royalty is to produce a heir: the advantage of monarchy over tyranny is that succession is clear, which is good, but you need to actually have the children to do so.

King George III and his wife Charlotte loved each other enormously and deeply. (He seems to be the only King who was faithful to his wife from the Stuarts to Queen Victoria.) They had 15 kids- great success. But in 1772, angered by his brother's secret marriages to commoners, Parliament passed the Royal Marriages Act of 1772, requiring Parliament and the King to approve of all marriages of all descendants of King George II (exception was made for offspring of Princesses who had married into foreign royalty).

Because pretty much all of KG3's children were disagreeable bastards, they mostly refused to marry under those terms. So the sons had long term mistresses and illegitimate children galore. The Prince of Wales actually had a marriage ceremony to a twice-widowed Catholic woman, but the Act meant that it was completely invalid. Eventually his dad forced him to marry Caroline by offering to pay off his debts. They had a heir, Princess Charlotte, great success! But they hated each other and separated almost immediately after that, not great but they did their job.

Then Princess Charlotte died in her first childbirth, sudden disaster. This created a problem: of those 15 children the eldest was married to a woman who hated him. The second eldest, Prince Frederick, was also married to a woman who hated him and they had already separated without having a heir. All of the living daughters were between 40 and 51, so they surely weren't going to be the solution to the problem.

This created what was known as the "Race to the Altar" as all of the surviving sons of George III suddenly had to find (Protestant) princesses who were willing to tolerate their mistresses and illegitimate children and were high ranking enough to get approval for their marriage. The next eldest, the future William IV, married a woman almost 30 years younger than him, but they had several miscarriages and two daughters who died before they were 3 months old. The next eldest son, Prince Edward, was the father of Queen Victoria (his elder brother William outlived him, so he was never King), who became Queen because of all of this.

The Royal Marriage Act was changed in 2011 to only apply to the next 6 people in line for the throne, rather than every single descendant of King George II.
They’re talking about a late thirteenth century fresco in France, not Roman art by protochristians in the first few centuries CE. As christianity spread or was forced across europe, there was plenty of mixing religions.

But this whole thing is a pretty big stretch, you can’t tell if it’s a tree or a mushroom then maybe it’s just the artist wasn’t the greatest and trying to shoehorn psychedelics into it isn’t at all a worthwhile way to spend your time.
Purism is even a better alternative.
This is one of those super nerdy quotes to put up, too:

> Laser... inter eximia naturae dona numeratum plurimis compositionibus inseritur... quas habeat utilitates admixtum aliis, inmensum est referre.

> “The laser, among the most precious gifts of Nature, used in numerous medical applications: to describe all its uses in combination with other things, endless is the task.”

> — Pliny the Elder, Naturalis Historia XXII.il

There is a slight problem in that a lot of the people who read it and accept the misdirection that we're talking about modern lasers, seem to not know who Pliny the Elder is or when he wrote, so they miss the joke. :(

The [...] exclusions, I should say, are doing a lot of heavy lifting in creating the misdirection, with some creative translation mixed in (“medical applications” instead of “medicinal compositions” for example).
Why do you believe these sources, and your off-the-cuff analysis, and not the original research?

How does that follow? It certainly seems that spending $9K/year or less compared to coughing up 3 to 10 times that to hire proves that attention to retention is nowhere near that given to hiring.

I've been working in TypeScript with Vue 2, and Nuxt.js for over 2 and a half years now. They might not be built in TypeScript, but they support them very well.

I've also never met a library that couldn't be integrated into Vue easily, whether through an official solution, a 3rd-party library or analogue, or simply integrating it yourself. I will give you that there are certainly more libraries catering to React specifically.

Safari used to have a feature where you could delete all cookies except for ones you had explicitly marked to keep. So, for example, I might keep ones like my bank login name and my amazon history, but very easily remove everything else. I used this all the time. Even better would be the option to delete all but selected cookies every time I closed Safari.

That's not exactly a huge surge. Perhaps we're not seeing a big shift in worker attitudes, so much as we're seeing a big shift in what people are talking about right now.

The people who propose this kind of regime change should be honest about it. They should come outright with "first we'll kill a couple of atom bomb's worth of you, and the rest will live happily ever after". The human rights marketing is disingenuous.
"Because it's basically a dialect OF English."

I'd suggest not, it is a peer / sibling of Modern English, and descended in parallel. Northumbrian Old English eventually became Scots, due to the 'English of the Lothians' using it (and eventually 'Inglis').

Go read some older Scots from around 1600, you'll probably have a harder time of it than the same age English because they were and are distinct. Modern media, a lack of formalised spelling, and simple economics post union has probably been the major factor in its slow decline towards death.

So Scots (in its various dialects) and Geordie/Mackem/Northumbrian are I'd suggest dialects of the same language, not being English. Speakers code switch between them.

You've also missed out the other language, which was spoken in the 'Old North' and the Kingdom of Strathclyde - i.e. the Brythonic speakers.

Humans have been doing "boring" work their whole lives for millions of years, it has never been a problem.

The problem is that people are working for organizations that are DOING HARM to them and their people. Not only is their work not productive, it is destructive. Not only is their work meaningless, but it endeavors to undermine meaning itself.
You can’t. Even if you could, you’d still be speculating.

Observer Design Pattern in JavaScript
I'm not convinced that the "4-vector" is a very useful C++ concept. Sure, it easily maps to 4-wide SIMD registers, but is that really what you want?

Its clear to anyone who has tried it... that NVidia's CUDA / OpenCL / Intel ISPC approach is superior. Seeing the SIMD-lanes as a thread is easier to understand than expected.

NVidia CUDA and AMD ROCm/HIP are your C++ languages that compile into SIMD code. OpenCL isn't really C++ but kinda is associated with it. Intel is doing the OneAPI thing but I don't know much about it yet.

Python, Julia, and other high-level languages are also moving into the "simd-lanes as threads" approach. Its just fundamentally easier to think about.

I would argue part of the problem with the American system is that trying to rush students through a rigid curriculum leaves the teachers no choice but to teach by rote memorization and cookie-cutter problems. Slowing down the curriculum is part (but not all) of the fix.

Still, whether or not this policy is good, it takes a lot of spin to turn "San Fransisco is starting algebra a year later" into "witnessing public schools take math out of the curriculum at elementary, middle and high schools", which is what you claimed.

That's what I'm getting at -- life skills are much more broad than occupational skills. Art, PE, health, sports, civics, etc. are taught in schools because they produce people with more well-rounded life skills, not because it produces better bankers or factory workers.
I remember a friend of mine arguing prefixing names with g, q and k was a reason linux on the desktop failed. I asked "So, how do you explain the success of ipod, iphone, ipad and itunes?"
I'm looking at like this:

Max speed limit (in UK) is 70mph.

300 miles battery is 4h

4h is the maximum reccomended to drive without a break.
I'd say 300 miles is just about right in terms of distance to force those like me to take a 30 min break.

Edit:
I'd go for cheaper at this stage. Also as low tech as possible.

i used google photos and wrote about it on here -- to some extent i'm fine with the scanning but my problem was that extracting the photos out of google was a complete nightmare.

anyone that says "just use google takeout" obviously hasn't gone through the effort. i have about 178GB of data and they were all delivered in 2GB zip file chunks, many of them got corrupted, or never even sent over. i extracted my stuff when you could still tie google photos to google drive and even then each photo/video file ended up having 3 files, something for .json, something with exif tags in it and then the actual picture/video itself, it was an absolute mess.

if i know there's a service that will preserve the file 100% and it's easy downloadable then i would use it, for now, i'm extracting everything through iCloud.com and it seems to work perfect (much better than saving files out of iPhotos on mac directly). after everything is backed up to external HD i'll turn off the syncing on my local phone.

I've been living upstate and commuting to NYC for the last ~10 years.

A pay cut going full remote would basically cancel out my commuting costs. I might end up with slightly more money in my pocket once taxes and snacks are accounted for.

That said, when things "get back to normal" I don't currently intend to apply for full remote. I didn't mind my commute two years ago. Maybe I will when I have to start doing it again.
This is very true. The office at the location that I currently am based in for my company includes a courtyard with pond for breaks, an onsite massage therapist, food court with good food, workout gym, and other things... If I am not getting to use these extra provided perks I am expecting for my company to make up for that by paying me a portion of what they were spending on all of those in person perks.
Do you live in the US? I would not say corn is a staple carb (not counting HFCS, but as a direct food replacing bread or rice) for most people. It is consumed directly as a vegetable (sweet corn) and as a staple in the form of cornbread, tortillas, and other cornmeal-based products but I would bet those don’t even form a plurality of starchy carb sources in the American diet, compared to wheat-based carbs like bread or even potatoes. It could be different in Mexico where corn tortillas are more commonly consumed, but in the US I don’t think corn is actually a common staple carb (again, not counting HFCS) at all.

You may wonder why I don’t count HFCS- that’s because it’s a sweetener composed of simple sugars whereas most staple carb sources are starches. It’s very common in processed foods, which Americans and Mexicans unfortunately consume way too much of, but is not exactly a staple most people have or use in their home cooking.
What language is Slovenian a "dialect of" in your thoughts?
Scottish English != Scots. The former is just English with a Scottish accent; the latter is a closely related (to English) but distinct language with its own vocabulary and grammar, not dissimilar to the relationship between Norwegian and Danish, or Czech and Slovak.

Scots being a language has nothing to do with suppressing Gaelic. Generally people who hate Gaelic hate Scots equally.
