Anecdotes are still anecdotes regardless of how many you have.

For data you need to actually measure a response in a controlled environment. Making sure you record both the interesting, and non-interesting, responses so you can compare them.

Humans have a very strong natural tendency to only remember and evaluate interesting responses. Causing us to vastly overestimate the frequency of interesting outcomes. That paired with our brains strong desire to pattern match, means we’re terrible at making accurate observations on a day-to-day basis.

Hence scientists do experiments like this to discover what aspects of our intuition are accurate, and what parts are inaccurate.
OpenWrt doesn't use proprietary drivers and instead try to ships really recent kernel (21.02 ships 5.4, master has 5.10), so that might be why your particular model will never be supported. dd-wrt seems to be maintaining some eol kernel, I'm wondering for how long https://svn.dd-wrt.com/browser/src/linux/universal

So the burden of proof is on those who doubt that indoctrinating math teachers with critical race theory improves the teaching of math?

That sounds a bit unfair, especially considering that anyone who would seriously try to provide such evidence would probably commit a career suicide, by being called a racist and cancelled.
In Postgres you would generally use JSONB columns, those are stored as TOASTs and are automatically compressed. That compression isn't very good, but there is some work on adding other compression algorithms there.
With PeerTube there's Sepia Search [1] which allows searching for videos across all instances. All federated networks basically need open-source, centralised search engines like Sepia Search to enable users to search across all federated instances.

No one talks about this, but for many (most?) of the papers they publish, there’s no copyright to assign. When I was in grad school, 100% of my research was federally funded (NSF, Navy, NASA) so they insisted that every product of that research be freely available with no restrictions. When we get an article ready for publication, the Journal would send us the standard “you assign your copyright to us” forms. We’d sign them but also send a copy of “the green form” stating that it was federally funded and we didn’t have any copyright to assign. They just ignore that.

I would guess there's more than borax in it:

> Traditionally borax was used as a flux for brazing, but there are now many different fluxes available, often using active chemicals such as fluorides[9] as well as wetting agents. Many of these chemicals are toxic and due care should be taken during their use.

oh, the newb HN Econ 101 argument again.

> we're supposed to feel bad for "small business owners"

Yes, you should.

What will happen is this. When their commercial lease comes up for renewal, the small business owner won't renew. Then you'll write even more idiotic posts like, "Why's there no entertainment venues in the area?"

HN is so out-of-touch with businesses on the other side of the keyboard.

Here's a clue, Marxist. As corona recedes, the news will start reporting on the craggy shoals of bk's and suicidal small business owners that surface. You know, the people you have no empathy for, but make up the character of a city.

Twin Peaks, season 3 is the antithesis of Chekhov’s Gun. So many false starts and seemingly meaningless dead ends. That said, it feels like art, and if your willing to take it as such, it’s a fun ride. Tightly focused narrative is a reasonable default but certainly not a hard and fast rule.

This only applies to people still learning how to skate. I used to rollerblade all around manhattan. A good skater takes up as much room as a pedestrian, but is moving much faster, can zip in and out of crowds like pylons, and use edgework to accelerate without the largesse strides. It’s incredibly fun as a rollerblader’s mobility is infinitely greater than a skateboard .
As opposed to one of "tired light" models.

Light is not immortal, so it loses some energy with time. E.g. gravitational noise can affect photon energy, or photon can lose some energy to medium due to friction, or photon can lose some energy because of truncation of ideal sinusoidal wave at Planck scale, or speed of light is a bit slower than c (because light arrived 16 seconds later than gravitational waves, when gravitational waves were discovered), thus photon is not frozen in time and expands at very slow rate.
Dr. Schuller’s lectures is one of the few recordings of this kind on YouTube that I can listen to without getting irritated by one thing or another. (Another one being the widely known physics lectures by L. Susskind.)

I think the key is to seperate the catalogue of books and authors from the social and recommendation elements, which is another aspect of federation and de-centralization.

If you're aiming to lock people in and own all their data, then you need to combine the two, but then you kill the social elements by sucking in lots of disparate communities. You can do something sub-reddit like, but if you're not actually interested in sucking up everyone's information then you can slice off the catalogue part to openlibrary and wikidata and have a much easier time building your specific social thing on top.

Bookwyrm (and inventaire.io) seem to have adopted this approach, building on OpenLibrary and Wikidata catalogues.

And in the background those two data projects interact at various levels and with other open data projects that build from the same sources. For example, there's wikidata projects that try to seperate out all the acadamic authors with the same name, so you can have multiple John Smith's and find the right one and connect them across different databases.

From the toxicity section (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borax#Toxicity) it seems like the concern is most about ingesting borax in large quantities or breathing in the dust. And also being cautious on potential health affects:

Since people are already exposed to boric acid naturally through their diets and water, Health Canada advised that exposure from other sources should be reduced as much as possible, especially for children and pregnant women. The concern is not with any one product, but rather multiple exposures from a variety of sources.
I think I see the argument for why that's 'charming', but I've seen far more enjoyable media that does it better.

Details that build characters is good. X has cancer is fine, albeit heavyhanded. Certainly enough of a characterization to work in low-plot action movies for example.

Not everything needs to be relevant to the plot. But I'm not convinced that a 2 hour movie has the room for this kind of storytelling.
Seems impossible at the moment. Most interviewers I had in the past year were hostile and seemed intimidated. I think people are afraid to hire.

There is also the indecisiveness, hiring managers that don't know what they want and of course the broken hiring process.
Argentine ‘death flights’ trial gets underway
How do the dogs know if an action is intentional or unintentional? Is it from the emotions, e.g. when someone intentionally withholds a reward they look angry, but when they unintentionally withhold a reward they look surprised and sad?

Dogs are very emotional and can read human emotion. I can tell if my dog is happy, excited, bored, relaxed, angry, upset, scared, or confused. Similarly my dog can tell if someone likes them, doesn't like them, is sad, angry, and maybe other emotions.

I use Cone and Termux on my android device. My ledger journal is synced to a private git repo. When I'm away from my laptop, I just enter the transaction in cone, and push it via termux at the end of the day.

It does have some limitations though, as cone is append only, it cannot edit transactions. For this, I've had to fire up vim a few times in Termux.

I have also created a few scripts using ledger, gnuplot and termux-open to generate graphical reports, and have exposed these via termux widgets. This gives me a one-click access to real time reports on my phone.
It can’t simultaneously be true that people are paying huge sums fir houses, driving prices up, and they can’t afford to build new houses. New construction is generally much cheaper than buying an existing house. The lack of new house building is reluctance to grant planning permission due to NIMBYism.

One of the points of an LVT, among other things, is to encourage little old ladies living in 4 bedroom houses to move somewhere smaller. It’s actually a very equitable tax that reduces distortions in markets and reduces inequality. I highly encourage you to read up on it.

It's a great idea. I really like a lot of Nim's language design, including from a performance perspectice.

If only things were implemented as reliably and nicely as the design suggests. I think people like the neat documented language and take for granted that the implementation must have all things that are implied or suggested by the design, when it's not quite up to natural expectations in practice:

> @mratsim: As a potential impact, I tried to use options in my RayTracer, but they were 5x slower (not just a couple dozen percents like the iterator issue in #14421) than passing mutable parameter + bool

> @mratsim: I was misled by Rust code :/

https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/14420#issuecomment-63...

Without going into details of any particular problem, I can safely say that when I profile Nim code at runtime, I see a lot more copying than I think was intended by authors.

And when I look at the generated C code, I see a lot of temporary objects and redundant copies into and out of them, where it's obvious just from reading a few lines in the C code they are redundant. Not just copies that could be cleverly turned into pointers by lent etc., but temporaries that trivially don't need to be there even without fancy lent/borrowing optimisations.
Most of my biology collaborators have switched in the past 5 years to putting all their new submissions on biorxiv. It seems like medrxiv is now getting popular since COVID started too. But, as in math and physics, I guess a big problem is articles that predate this change are still paywalled in many cases.

I find it unethical to pay these journals. You are enabling a system that doesn't reward the creator only the middleman. When the author gives you a copy you have to wonder who are you supporting?
This sounds problematic from a debugger perspective if the function does any sort of side effect, and I'd consider this a bug as well.

In fact, I'd probably argue that causing user-code to run at debug time is not a good idea even if the function is guaranteed to be side-effect free.
>>I don't believe it - have you seen it happen

Yes, I have gone exactly through this myself, and now that I'm a manager I've helped several people become managers themselves, and it always starts with people expressing interest in the path. It's generally very encouraged where I work.

>>get managed out rather than promoted, I bet you.

That's a pretty wild bet to make, given that you know, I'm actually talking from experience.
There's usually a formal definition of something and a common definition of something, and most languages that get traction follow the common definition.

For example, the formal definition of the Liskov Substitution Principal:

> Let ϕ(x) be a property provable about objects x of type T. Then ϕ(y) should be true for objects y of type S where S is a subtype of T.

This doesn't allow any change in behavior when subclassing. Not even the addition of logging, which makes the overriding of methods generally useless. Yet languages still provide this feature (perhaps to their detriment, but they still do).

There's also a common definition of the Liskov Substitution Principal:

> Functions that use pointers or references to base classes must be able to use objects of derived classes without knowing it.

This is, generally speaking, what people are talking about when the mention the Liskov Substitution Principal, unless they're actively writing an academic paper on the topic.

Bringing up the academic definition when someone is using the common definition is 1. not relevant and 2. usually not helpful.
Wages have been stagnant for decades while the cost of living has increased... and now housing has become a privilege.

Yes, there are "rich foreigners" and some corporations are strategically acquiring the places and spaces where high rent can be extracted. But what has driven housing cost in the market of individual homes is simply that some citizens can afford to borrow at low rates, and other citizens are seizing the opportunity to realise gains that they could not attain through a lifetime of work, wage increases, and other investing.

It is grim to work for years and have nothing else to show for it.

Young families, workers, the elderly, and the poor will be unable to afford even tenancy in the big cities. (To turn dark for just a moment, we only really seem to have a plan for the elderly.) The future control of crucial urban voting-blocks in Western democracies will be in the hands of landlords.
I understand what your trying to say. But I don’t agree with words you’ve used.

We don’t assume nothing, that’s clearly not true. A basic assumption we make is that the natural world is capable of perceiving us and responding to our actions.

The question we’re normally testing is how complex the process between perception and response is. As general rule we assume that process is extremely simple (“dumb”), and work to understand how complex (“smart”) it actually is.

For example, in this paper the scientists didn’t start by proving the dogs were capable of observing the humans and responding to their actions. That was a given. What was tested was how complex the dogs perception and decision making process was.

Using words like “dumb” and “smart” are extremely crude. But it’s the words used by GP and OP.
Covid and the vaccine are two different things. They aren't equivalent. Also, covid kicked my ass the first time around. With covid, the viral loads you are exposed to are variable. With the vaccines, the amount of spike protein you are exposed to has potentially higher minimum. But it's all variable. Maybe the vaccine will have no adverse effects, maybe covid exposure will be just a normal cold. If I've already been exposed to either however- there is no reason for me to subject myself to that risk again.

Your solution is the problem. The house prices are a blood-sucking squid, and you are pay for them every time you get a coffee or get any service - half the money is going to the labdowner that contributes nothing to the economy. That's why a coffee costs £5 and a plumber charges £100 an hour

But we have fools that celebrate rising house prices because their nominal net worth went up
maybe because a certain action differs from usual patterns. to me this is the most logical explanation.
While this can be seen as somewhat useful, nothing stops you from deactivating breakpoints inside of the "Sources" section in devtools.

I also believe that the same anti-debugging technique is used by obfuscator.io, and is just a feature you can enable for when obfuscating your code on there. It's called "Debug Protection". It does about the same thing you shown in your blog post, making good use of the debugger statement.
No, it doesn't matter which direction the cities are from each other.

The calculations assume that the earth is spherical so the calculations work because a great circle will pass between the cities even if they lie at the same latitude. The calculations also assume that the well and the pole lie on a radius of the earth, that is, that they are straight up and down; this can be determined with a simple plumb line. The calculations also assume that the shadow cast by the pole lies on the line between the two cities, but this is always true if the well is pointing straight at the sun.

Note that the well in the first city is pointing straight at the sun at a particular time (noon on the summer solstice). Why is this time important? Because it can be accurately determined in the second city without clocks, with accurate clocks (or communication to synchronize the observations) this measurement could be made between any cities at any time as long as the sun was shining straight down the well of one of the cities at that time.
I strongly disagree with this. Taken to its extreme, A machine where you can push a button and kill everybody everywhere is a fundamentally immoral technology.

What happened is that I moved to the Swedish countryside and as such was confronted with hills and unpaved roads. When I lived in the Netherlands I used skates for transport in lieu of a bicycle because they're far easier to take along on public transport. I skated to the station, skated into the train, skated off it after 1.5 hours and 150 km, skated to my job and repeated this on my way home. I was just as fast as if not faster than most cyclists. Every now and then I skated to my parents, an 75km trip which took a while.

I never - and I mean never - heard anything about "skating being gay, that might be an American thing? To even consider homophobia (fear of homosexuals?) in this context is completely foreign to me and probably says more about the polarised society in the USA than about anything else.

Skates are practical means of transport in flat countries with good infrastructure like the Netherlands. They are not in the part of Sweden where I now live, otherwise I'd still be on them every day. A bicycle works fine here so I reverted to my original means of locomotion.

They play a role in a different sense: if you see a rifle it may be there because it's going to be fired or maybe because the character likes rifles. Could you imagine The Big Lebowski without bowling? And yet bowling has nothing to do with the story.
I am in an upper middle class neighborhood myself. I didn't say crime doesn't exist in SA, nor did I say that the middle class is 100% unaffected. However - using the murder rate alone is misleading. I don't worry about crime but we do have an alarm system just in case. In areas closer to crime hot spots, the community watches and private security often do a good job keeping the riff raff away.

Good reasons indeed. I'm not a user of this PTA, but a couple of months ago I decided to write my own simple bookkeeping software. I reckoned: if I have to learn double entry bookkeeping one way or another, I want to do that step-by-step with my own software. Just something running locally now. I also build in some (as I call 'm) Semi-Automatic Shortcuts, which let me enter standard recurring entries. Click-click-done. And the best thing: I now understand what this whole double entry bookkeeping thing is.

Even for using of-the-shelf software from a third party, you need to learn the idea and skills behind double entry bookkeeping. The software is not going to fix that for you.

P.S. If anybody is interested in a simple locally deployed PHP-script to do bookkeeping, send me a message. There's also a simple timetracker, a balance sheet, profit/loss statement, etc. You need a local server and MySQL database to run it. I guess in it's essence it's applicable worldwide, but if you're from The Netherlands, it's ready to do taxes for you.
