That may just be my experience online but generally outside of extreme example (in which I wouldn't include the original post), there is usually almost no correlation between the quality of English of one person and English being his first language or not. Again in my online experience, implying that someone isn't a native speaker is generally considered rude. That may just be a difference in our social circles, or me being in the minority though.

I think there is a difference between "This is not how you should speak English the language", and "The way you say things doesn't improve or even worsen the current proportions of men and women in tech.". I agree that we disagree on one point: I don't think the proportion itself is undesirable, what's undesirable for me is discrimination. If tech becomes a perfect environment in regards to discrimination and there is still a low proportion of women in it, it's totally fine for me. But if there is a ratio that's perfectly representative of the population and discrimination still exists, it isn't fine for me.

Outside of our differences in views, you're pushing a certain view of things and certain values, and not everyone might agree with this. A few people probably expressed that by a silent downvote. Some people may also think that you're derailling the conversation. A common response to that is that these kind of issues are really important and are always on topic, but not everyone agrees with this.
Alcohol itself is a carb. There is no alcohol without "too much carbs".

The point, though, is if you've succeeded at cutting out carbs, then it's pretty likely you did so by no longer desiring them. So to have a set of people who succeeded at low carb diets claim that the low carb diet was the potential cause of no longer desiring carbs is a strong selection bias. It's like a fooled by randomness type scenario.

It's not like they said "I started playing golf and no longer desired carbs" which would really be novel.
> Google doesn’t sell people’s data. Neither does Facebook.

These companies are in such a position, that they have so much data when selling it brings competitive disadvantage.

There is a competition going on from the control of the world, in terms of sophisticated A.I. development. This is where they are using their data. Ads are just little sidekick in the process anymore.

Also, they probably do everything with the data and a bit more than average data buyer would do.
If you are in the management team working for one of the largest companies in the world, who happen to be based in the US, I sure do hope you know about things like insider trading, anti-competitive behavior and other ills described by US law, otherwise you can put your company in trouble at any time.

Especially if you're in the discussions around acquiring companies. You want it to be very obvious you're not acquiring something in order to fuck it up for a competitor, you want to acquire a company in order to further yourself.

You are right. However, for the author the “attacker” is whoever wants to debug, not the other way around.
CICO is just physics; but you need to work BOTH sides of that equation. If you ONLY try to shift the balance to deficit by limiting intake, of COURSE your body is going to react to the new starvation environment. That's why you should moderately reduce intake while ALSO moderately increasing output (i.e. do physical activity)

Depends on the shoe. I have definitely marred wood floors with SPDs and Shimano lace up CX shoes. Looked like someone took a hammer and smacked it at an angle in random places on the floor.

I thought much like you that SPDs were recessed enough not to make contact. I was wrong.
Let's assume the 50-move rule is automatically applied. We can have 49 moves per pawn move, followed by 49 moves per piece captured. A maximum of 8 pawns (4 white and 4 black, for example) can possibly be advanced over the course of the game to the opposite side (6 squares ahead from their home square). Therefore, it seems to me that the maximum number of pawn moves could involve one player advancing their pawns 4 spaces, followed by the opposing player capturing all those pawns (using pieces rather than pawns, as both moving a pawn and capturing a pawn would be a waste), and then advancing their pawns to the back rank. This would be 8x4 + 86 = 80 pawn moves, plus 8 pawn captures. That's 88 allowances for 49-move knight sequences, plus the initial 49-move knight sequence made from move one. So, with no pawns remaining, and all of black's pawns converted to pieces on the back rank, we have 8949=4361 moves. Now, there are 22 pieces and 2 kings remaining on the board. That puts an upper limit of 22 captures, leading to an additional 2249 allowable moves. All together, that is 11149=5439 total moves. I'm probably off by a few.
Latent toxoplasmosis is literally insidious, hidden inside body fat cells where antibiotics won't reach and only occasionally it gets out to infect more cells. So one round is not enough, you have to take antibiotics for years until all the infected cells die.
Most of the ARMs were sold with very little downward adjustability. With rates at historic highs, the ones I was seeing when mortgage shopping in 2006ish consistently had wide open upward adjustment and one 0.25% step available of downward adjustment to their minimim rate from the initial rate.

The bank wasn't taking much risk on the adjustable rate.
It depends on the workload, of course. If you are doing things that hit the memory, the massive 960MB L4 of the z15 will help a lot. If all you do fits on the caches of an x86, then the x86 may be a better option. Offloading all the IO to dedicated processors will also be helpful - the z15 feels like it has instantaneous IO. The z15 will probably suck at floating-point SIMD ops (something our laptops are quite good at)
Well, you don't have to make "tossing people out of their homes" a horrifying experience. If the eviction process on your primary residence granted you 3 years to pay the tax then it would be exceedingly unlikely that anyone would get kicked out because of a sudden real estate boom or bust.

As a concession the debt can be reassessed at any time during those 3 years. If there is a boom that makes the tax excessive followed by a bust that reduces the value of the land by 50% then your tax bill would also go down by 50%.

>The easier thing is just make is easier to build more housing, denser if needed, to fulfill demand.

That's the entire goal behind the land value tax.

The experiment design doesn’t convince me of the headline.
To be clear, there are plenty of ways we can improve on the American status quo that don't ditch liberalism --- such as constitutional reform for far more democratic voting systems. But I fear they are very unlikely because by the time we had the political will for such huge steps, there will be a lots and lots of discontent and the baby will be thrown out with the bathwater.

(In that example, I think constitutional reform is scary to many people because they think that will open the floodgates to eviscerating their favor parts of the Bill of Rights.)

You should get vaccinated so the rest of us can get back to our lives.

People have known about the vitamin D connection since almost the beginning of the pandemic and it wasn't until the vaccine was rolled out in the United States that cases and deaths dropped to all time lows. (and then delta variant happened)

Besides, the findings on vitamin D are weak at best, were not even sure if the relationship is causal.

The research is sparse, but the point isn't whether the effect exists, it's that if vitamin D supplements provided 90+% protection against catching covid in the same way mrna vaccines do, it would be more obvious.

This isn't going to get much better so long as we have such a large unvaccinated population playing host to mutations and clogging up the hospital system.

Are defensive buys really illegal in the US in the first place?
About point two:

Both supply and demand are incredibly constrained: building new houses is slow and not exactly being stimulated by the government, whereas demand is fixed because people need a place to live.

Property rental is an extremely attractive investment opportunity. Demand is guaranteed and due to the low cost of obtaining money it is basically risk-free. Even at near-zero rent you'll still make a profit - as long as the housing market doesn't crash.

On the other hand mortgages always carry some risk, and banks are aware of this. There are quite strict limitations on the amount you are allowed to borrow. This directly means that individuals will always be outbid by investors.

This directly results in price increases. Individuals are now no longer able to buy a home, forcing them to rent. Landlords, in turn, are happy to let you rent a property which you wouldn't be able to afford because it is way easier to evict you. And because demand is higher than supply, they'll happily increase the price. Rent prices are already in overdrive.

So now you're paying €1200 in rent instead of €800 in mortgage payment - for the same property.

Banning buy-to-let would result in a sale of the properties currently being rented out - which means a drop in the housing price. Rental supply will drop, but those houses don't magically disappear! People who previously were unable to get a mortgage can now suddenly afford to buy instead of rent. This lowers the demand for rentals, which decreases rent.

People don't need landlords - they need homes. With the exception of a very small number of short-term rentals, landlords provide zero value. Removing them from the equation decreases the prices for everyone.
I personally remember around that time that watching a video was pretty hit-or-miss, but YouTube always seemed to work. I've also heard that they focused on supporting the max possible number of codecs for upload, so uploaders were less likely to hit problems as well. I think both of those could have played a large part in their success.
Remind me of the Ariane 5 maiden flight: redundant hardwares does not protect against unsanitized inputs.
I don't know much about the design of the airbuses, but I think it's sensible to specify the last primary computer running in a different mode as the first two, simply because double hardware failure is very very unlikely. So it boils down to either software bug and or unsanitized inputs. Assuming that, the last computer should provide some basic but safe functions.

MotoG at $40 off contract was probably a clearance sale, and not available in millions of units. I can't think of an HD screen phone at this price point - can you post some links?

I find your comment a little disheartening, sorry. You could buy on a black friday sale, or eBay - but so what? The target segment for this phone makes less than $300 a month.

> Did the dog differentiate the scenarios based on intent or did it recognize my apologetic behaviour as non threatening?

Apologetic behavior is a pretty good post-facto signal of intent! Humans also rely on it with each other. So I'm not sure that relying on sort of secondary signals like that is a real problem for the theory that dogs can read and care about human intent.
Dogma needed it to be true so it was true.
My impression is that this tool helps you do the exploratory work required to write tests in the first place, as well as helping you split up and rewrite the code to start making it more testable.
Accidental deployment of thrust reversers is a bad thing and incidents of that kind have killed a lot of people. It seems better to bias the failure modes toward non-deployment. The reversers are not critical systems, and aircraft are permitted to operate even if their reversers are not operational. They mainly save wear and tear on the tires and brakes.
It's not just the investors. It's literally everyone.
YouTube’s primary value add for me is music remixes and covers that can’t legally make it to Spotify / Apple music / etc., but skirt around the DMCA takedowns. I try and use it as my primary driver for music but the recommendation engine is just terrible. I listen to days of classic rock and most of my recommendations are still centered around that one EDM song I listened to a week ago. Probably because the ratio of people playing EDM videos with sexy thumbnails to people “watching” classic rock lyric videos is very high. Oh well.

I would be careful here.

Most studies about alcohol consumption suffer from the fact that the quantity of alcohol consumed is determined by asking the individual how much alcohol they consume.

It wouldn’t be surprising if people who exercise more and are healthier and probably feel better about themselves (the causation could work both ways here...exercise makes you feel better and feeling better makes you exercise), are more willing to declare higher levels of alcohol consumption.

In addition, as the article abo it the study points out, it’s surprising because more exercise is correlated with more consideration about one’s health. This would also mean that people who exercise more are more careful about their health and are more aware of how much they are drinking, as opposed to people who are less considerate and don’t keep track of their drinking habits as much, which would also lead to differences in self reporting alcohol units.
> That would be an explicit rejection of supporting 'all user content' and thus avoid regulations meant for a 'publisher/carrier dichotomy'.

Under the intended changes, this would give them the same liabilities as non-digital publishers. Currently Section 230 provides special protections for digital services.

> Any argument which say that should be illegal seems also like an argument for why Ravelry can't decide for themselves to reject obviously non-knitting content divisive to the site.

It wouldn't be illegal, but the idea is that it'd be infeasible for infrastructure to act as a publisher.

E.G: Comcast couldn't block all anarchist content if acting as a common carrier. It'd require acting as a publisher, which comes with liabilities they're unlikely able to take on.
Wow, I live rural Ontario and I've never seen a gator type thing on the road here. I see ATVs go on the roads briefly to go from one trail to another but that's it.

My dad has a Gator on his property and it's pretty meh. He complains about it a lot.

If they had a three point hitch and a PTO like a tractor I'd find them more compelling.
And note that for all aircraft the landing distance is calculated _without_ thrust reversers or spoilers, and thus is based on braking performance alone.

Some of the challenge here was the seconds spent at near landing speed without any braking being performed, as that'll eat up runway distance fast, following the auto brake failure prior to manual braking commencing.

Yes and no (your question is invalid/underspecified), with voltage source (constant voltage), current is consequence of device power demand at required voltage. More power required at a given voltage, more current will flow. Less power required, less current will flow, but voltage stays constant. So, ALL voltage regulators are "dropping" current, so your question could be answered by "any voltage regulator, for example LM7805". But if some device requests some power and your regulator's power source can't provide that power, your voltage will drop.
> Honestly defense-in-depth seems to be working OK here.

No. Given that once a computer failure happens (p=1.0), then you analyze what the recovery procedures are from that point. It sounds like Airbus is unsafe at that point.

This scenario illuminates why Boeing and Airbus have different automation philosophies.

Using AI to help orgs detect and report CSAM online (2018)
Im gonna re-explain what you’ve written in language I’m more familiar with to check my understanding, and hopefully you can correct any errors I make.

As I understand it the A330 has three primary flight computers, all observing the same inputs (which might come from different physical sensors monitoring the same thing?) and producing outputs, also know as “orders” for other systems in the plan, like actuators.

Of these three computers, one will act as the primary command computer (COM), one as a monitoring computer (MON), the third is spare and normally ignored. Only orders from the COM machine is sent to downstream systems like actuators.

There’s a separate watchdog system that monitors the outputs (orders) of both the COM and MON, and if their order values diverge by too much for too long, it shuts down the COM computer and passes control to the MON computer and the spare. As part of this process one of those two computers becomes COM the other MON. I assume the size of the divergence determines how long they can diverge for. A large divergence is only allowable for a very short period of time, and a small divergence is allowed for longer.

In addition to all of this, the computers have different operating modes which changes how they respond to inputs. In this case the relevant states are “normal law” for in the air, and “ground law” for on the ground. One things that’s different between these states is how tightly coupled rudder inputs from the pilot are to rudder orders to the actuator. In the air the rudder is less tightly coupled than on the ground. E.g. commanding full left rudder in the air results in less physical movement of the rudder than the same command on the ground.

When the plane lands, detected by a pressure sensor in the landing gear, the computers transition from “normal law” to “ground law”. Which for some outputs, like the rudder, might result in a step change in outputs (orders) from the computers.

So in this specific scenario what happened is that the flight computers for some reason didn’t transition between “normal law” and “ground law” simultaneously (or close enough to simultaneously). So the COM computer significantly changed its rudder output as a result of changing law, but the MON computer didn’t, because it hadn’t changed law yet (the inverse of this is also possible). As a result they were producing very large differences in rudder orders, resulting in the monitoring watchdog killing the COM computer and failing over to the spare. Where the above situation happened a second time, resulting in all computers being shut down.

Is all of the above correct?

All of this does make me wonder, if changing law can result in computer outputs quickly changing, doesn’t that make law changes inherently dangerous? If you’re a pilot landing a plane applying significant rudder inputs, doesn’t the above me that those inputs will have a vastly different effect once the wheels touch the runway?

I would argue that people aggressively (perhaps annoyingly) evangelizing Rust is part of how it has come to be "normalized" now. People were doing the same thing Go several years ago.

Also I am not bothered by it; I personally find it interesting when a tool is implemented in a language that I find interesting. If it's a language I don't care about, I shrug and move on.

Are you bothered when somebody says "implemented in C 99"?

If you're at the point of looking at the source code, The language used for implementation might actually be relevant to you, when making a choice about whether to use a piece of software or library.
