Soviet schools weren't really specialized. They could have some classes with a heavier focus on specific subjects but all changes were minor.

So yes, coal miners learned the same stuff. Only after grade 9 kids could apply to a professional school that would teach blue-collar professions and that's the first divergence point.

P.S. In Soviet/Russian schools "class" is literally a group of kids who study all subjects together from grade 1 to 11, they are very rigid.

If I had to use Airtags I would ask my eight-year old son.

Random people usually hesitate to notify because first they think this is not my problem and second if they decide to do something but I don't understand immediately they give up communicating the situation to me.

Imagine you hearing an Airtag beeping and I ignoring it, and you don't know I am deaf. Even if you muster up the courage to broach the subject to me I might react not the way you expect and you think to yourself it's not worth it.
the mind of human and non-human animals in reflection; reflection as identity function

The search functionality is still very limited, though. I don't remember URLs with /some/post/id/123.html. I remember headlines, I remember mentions of the thing the article is telling about.

Local bookmarks need an offline cache that at least contains the text content and headings of the URL. Otherwise, the search will stay useless because nobody can organize them manually without making (human) mistakes after a while.

Ironically, Chromium's omnibar search worked by searching through headlines for a while; but meanwhile it's broken again, and it never worked for bookmarks and only for history entries.
Kubernetes in 2021: Where does the industry go next?
for sure. i do most of my work in Golang, which uses a system wide package store, and I hated that about it... until i discovered the Visual Studio Code remote container extension. It lets you define a container environment for your application - probably the same container you already use for CI - and it splits vscode into a thin client and a "server" running in your container. meaning: a dedicated local environment for each project that's fast to spin up and identical to CI.

My projects are self contained again, even though they use global package stores, and my IDE can treat the package store dir as a part of the codebase for debugging. I love it.
Depends on iops.

On system with high iops(ssd), the impact of file count is negligible.

On system with low iops (hhd, nfs or wsl on windows dirs), it is a nightmare.

I used to try to run npm install in an old project on /mnt/c/ on wsl1. And the install that takes 20~30 second normally end up took 20 minutes. Because /mnt/c/ under wsl has extremely low iops.

That is possible, because the article uses 'global emissions' to talk about 'global emissions from electricity generation'.

You can't solve a 4-degree polynomial equation by trying out numbers. It has up to 4 solutions, not guaranteed to be real, let alone rational or integer.

Incentives misallignment is a major component of my disillusionment.

It's possible that a non-Google vendor might see the approach as a differentiator. Of these, Mozilla seems to be footgunning itself with exceptional facility, Apple would serve only its own hardware platforms in all likelihood, and the remaining players (KDE / Webkit) are so small as to be utterly outclassed.

The remaining possibility would be a generalised HTTP/HTML (and if possible other document markup) programming libraries.
I doubt the calculators were the problem. People going through the "AP class" route with calculators finish up all of the math (and more!) that gets covered in a french high school math class (from experience of moving to France in High School and learning zilch for 3 years).

Totally on point about the "analyticial and quantitative lenses". Multiple-choice questions and lack of "real" questions really hobble a lot of math classes.

I was lucky in middle school in particular to have classes that used textbooks with a much more indepth look at why we would do X/Y/Z than the average book (along with a system where you would work through exercises in groups of 3 or 4, so better people could help out people who were struggling more). But I had to do a hell of a lot more "work showing" in France.
No, the "speed of light", c, is actually the speed of energy and matter. Everything is always moving at this speed in 4-dimensional space-time. If you are not moving in space, you are moving through "time" at this speed. Since this is just the speed things move at, it makes no sense to discuss moving faster or slower than this speed.

There are very few sci-fi movies or books where relativity is important and they treat it seriously. Tau Zero is one, I'm not sure about Time for the Stars, but Forever War does have FTL.

I created a list of all these works I could find a few years ago. Here is one link:

I think this is a complete list of the films and tv series:

"in this day and age."

It was never common knowledge. It's a little anti-social to suggest that it's 'common sense' in any way that people would know how to react in a chemical warfare situation.

Anti-social in the sense that implies a lack of understanding of common social knowledge and behaviour.
It seems unlikely that there's just a smart/dumb setting inside of each kid.

Material conditions being equal don't mean that everything is equal. Some people have parents who value certain things and push their kids. Other people have some anxieties to get over before they can perform. Some people like being ahead of the class and put in effort to stay there.

Having a functioning farm sector a food reserve is sooooo much better than having any amount of food in storage. You can only store so much, it won't last long given the huge amount needed every day. Disruptions that last years rather than weeks or months look more likely now than in the past century.

That can be generalized and of course is not limited to farming.

There's nothing stopping you from running `npm` or `yarn` offline and committing the cache.

In fact, both of these package managers have had direct support for this workflow since 2016 (https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v7/using-npm/config#offline) and 2017 (https://classic.yarnpkg.com/blog/2016/11/24/offline-mirror/) respectively.
Yeah from current understanding that's your fate. Everyone's fate actually, if you see gravitationally bound structures as one unit. You'd be alone waiting for the heat death. Therefore, I recommend decelerating to somewhere interesting during the time window which allows intergalactic travel.
Many of the Design Patterns emerge from the fact that a given language does not have first class functions AKA closures AKA objects. So in a way it is working around the limitation of a language not being object oriented enough.
This looks brilliant, thanks for the recommendation.

https://omar.website/tabfs/
I agree that the feature is limited and could be greatly improved. Tab titles and tags are usually good enough though to find what I am looking for.
It is the default.

So it ends up with un-optimized structure sometimes. Because the top package is locked and does not meet the version new package required.

In order to satisfy the constraint. Npm will install second copy of the package in nested directory.

And npm also have a `dedup` command for you to `screw it, change the version in lock and merge them if possible`.
Well, if you take a really strong laser pointer and point it at the moon, than a flick of the wrist can make that point race faster along the moon's surface than the speed of light.
I think you meant to write "reverse causation"? Correlation is by definition symmetric and directionless. If the researchers make no causation claims, they don't need to be concerned about the direction of causation.

I haven't followed the field, but it's hard for me to imagine published research in serious academic journals where causation claims are made without at least some discussion about the direction of causation and hidden confounders.
I agree. The reactivity system is definitely less verbose in Vue compare to React. And when you start working with things like Redux it gets very layered and complex very fast.
Not that I’m a fan of Yarn 2+, but this view strikes me as narrow. Setting up and upgrading the development environment is actual work, too! If you don’t treat it as such, developer efficiency will suffer in the long run.
> It turns out that there is a rest frame in which this background looks the same in all directions.

I was really surprised when I heard this for the first time a while ago. Because it means that our universe does have a _preferred_ frame.
What's happened in Canada, is that curriculum is designed to teach to the weakest student in a subject.

This is thought of as being fair, of helping, for of course everyone is intellectually equal.

Thus, those who can accel, are denied their future, for those which will leave high school, and never touch (for example) advanced math again.

Equality comes from recognising our differences, and enabling best outcomes for all. Not pretending we are all identical.

Sadly, this seems lost on many.
Not. Even if we could solve the rejecting issues (and we have fully solved the technology for breeding sea breams since decades), they are too small. Not really suitable for adult people.

And not useful for children, that would lost and replace their teeth in any case.

The structure of the teeth root is also different, and the mandible is much more acute triangular than ours. Not useful to replace part of a missing mandible in my opinion. Specially when you can just made a ceramic piece of the right size and shape and do a bone self-transplant.
No, yarn and npm don't have the same CLI API. For instance, the most basic command that adds a dependency :

npm install [package]

yarn add [package]

Even the options for this command are different (--save-dev vs --dev). In fact, the situation is even more confusing, since `yarn install` exists but does not accept parameters:

yarn install

re: NHS.
The case you are making doesn't fit your reasoning. As for privatisation in general, the current government is following a very basic rulebook:

1. Sabotage/kneecap an institution/
2. Offer a solution involving cronies/
3. Achievement Unlocked

1. For example, some Tory MP's (the elite that make the decisions for the plebs) don't need to rely on NHS for healthcare exclusively, hence they have a callous attitude towards it. They deploy all manner of subterfuge, replete with claps, lies and smiles, to starve out a public service funded by taxpayers.

2. The ultimate goal; offer a solution to the problem you manufactured (1) and share the spoils amongst yourselves, by awarding/rewarding and looking after each other's interests.

3. Self-explanatory.

> The causality fits very well into our world view. It also gives a very "simple fix".

Some people use video games as bogeyman, some people use time spent online, and you just used racism. Could it be that you are from the US (alternatively: from the anglosphere) and i am not?

At this point i find it hilarious how US people point at every second problem and be like, "racism is behind this". I hope i'm not the only one who feels this is some kind of insane.
Unfortunately the photons hitting the solar panel at the front of your spaceship will slow you down by at least as much as you could turn them into thrust by shooting them out behind you (conservation of momentum) :(
It's important to note though that this kind of ship is still impossible as far as I remember - even with matter/antimatter reactions (which theoretically gives you E = mc^2 energy, the maximum possible per kg), you can't get enough energy to accelerate to the mass of the fuel to 1g, nevermind the rest of the ship, for the duration required for interstellar travel.

Can I write one regular for loop to ten around one regular for loop, instead of ten regular for loops?
I think we all understand that.

The question posed was 'why are people vehemently opposed' and the context is 'a pandemic'.

It would be 'vehemently ridiculous' for people to arbitrarily wear masks, but missing your swimming instructors smile is a relatively small price to pay for controlling a pandemic which is still unfortunately ongoing, and which has major consequences.

If wearing masks for 6 more months can materially push COVID
out of business, then the trade off is a 'no brainer'.

The arguments made here seem to really lack context, it doesn't give confidence. We already know wearing masks sucks, that's not the point. The point is wearing them in the context of a deflating but nevertheless persisting public health crisis.
I don’t know, both of your examples seem to be about data structures/algorithms used. I don’t think any of them would be significantly more performant given a reimplementation of the same thing in a different language.

You're forgetting train (completely viable for China -> Europe), and the times where train isn't viable, a direct shipping express can be as efficient as allowing. What you quote with regards to 77 days is around the world but that isn't interesting for transport (that's interesting for leisure of just for the sheer competing; not transportation business).

What is interesting is the amount of time from large industrial ports such as say Singapore or New York to Rotterdam or Hamburg or Antwerp, the associated costs, and the risk of losing the transport (and its contents).

Either way, the last mile is the inefficiency with regards to carbon footprint. Ie. the transportation ship (and more so train) is relatively efficient; the last mile of the minivan delivering the one packet to you is the one which has the largest (relative) carbon footprint. To solve that, we need to invest in electric vehicles.

I normally have 2–3 browser windows open with at most 5 tabs each. I find that the window → tab hierarchy works very well with my workflow and it allows me to close tabs aggressively when I don't need them without being complex like TreeStyleTabs.

For example, if I'm looking for reference on a particular function I open a new window, open tabs for a couple of relevant results, do some research, and when I'm done I just close the window with all the tabs in it.

I just don't understand people who have a million tabs open in a single window. You clearly don't remember what's on each tab, so it's just screen and mental real estate being used for nothing.

For a Mac, I found that Hyperswitch works really great for letting Command+tab choose the correct window instead of doing the unexplainable mess of OSX application and window switching.
Not if the farm subsidies incentivize dumb things.

We should have a universal subsidy, not preferential subsidy for some food groups.

For instance, 87 cents of every dollar that a dairy farmer makes is from subsidy. That is ridiculous.
In his earlier days I used to dislike Veritasium because I felt he relied too much on the "go out and ask random strangers about science" format too much.

Worth noting that it was around 9% from 1964-1984, and has been pretty steadily climbing since then (with a levelling off at around 25% in 2010).
