Summary of the points therein:

* Men accounted for 70% of the 1.5m decline in college enrollment last year
* Women have outpaced men in bachelor attainment since the 80s

* Women have been told to get college degrees in order to secure independence and freedom for decades

* Men were 57% of college enrolled students in 1970 but since Title XI passed barring gender discrimination, the rates have been getting more lopsided for women

* Girls outperform boys generally in high school and elementary long before college

* Blaming "the feminist dogma of the education system and the inherently distracting presence of girls in classrooms" is dubious

* A better explanation is that up to the 1970s, men could secure middle-class wages on blue-collar work, but afterwards, that labor demand dried up and these types of men are adrift, and marry less since they also don't attend church anymore, and so live 'haphazard' lives detached from traditional responsibilities

* This has the effect that young boys don't have stable male role models, as men are more likely to be incarcerated, and aren't present enough in early schooling as teachers or as fathers in low-income areas

* The college gender gap is also occuring in "France, Slovenia, Mexico, and Brazil".

* Perhaps a blend of biological and cultural differences are at play

* This will have broad implications for marriage rates, delayed marriage, delayed childbirth

* This may have the cultural implication that education be seen as a identified with effeminacy, barring more men still

* "The pivot point is in adolescence, and the foundation is laid in the early grades.” This gender gap is an economic story, a cultural story, a criminal-justice story, and a family-structure story that begins to unfold in elementary school. The attention-grabbing statistic that barely 40 percent of college grads are men seems to cry out for an immediate policy response. But rather than dial up male attendance one college-admissions department at a time, policy makers should think about the social forces that make the statistic inevitable."

It’s not “shaming”. It’s teaching history. Should they not teach kids about slavery, colonialism…?

This is especially relevant in Canada where they have been uncovering mass graves of indigenous children at Catholic schools designed to convert Natives:

I don't see how that contradicts what I'm saying. Those are groups that don't historically have much representation in collegiate student bodies.
That's a good question, but I think it's still more important to understand why a root cause analysis wasn't finished. They got the cause, but not the root cause. It's like seeing your car battery dead and just replacing the battery, without understanding whether the alternator works or whether the alternator belt is broken.
Could you provide some substantive backing you your claims? Why won't this ever happen? Why do you think this is about "being bold" rather than "managing things rationally"? What's irrational about electric vehicles?
Everyone replying to you seems to be missing what I think is the obvious implication that new car sales won't really matter because if used car sales are still allowed dealers will just import those to sell and people will buy them if they are what they want. And if there is not enough charging infrastructure and whatnot gas cars will be what people want.

One thought: If you're a male, not an athlete, and not an academic star, you're going to be on the hook for your entire college costs. You'll be eligible for few (if any) scholarships, low-interest loans, grants, etc.

No idea if there's actual causation there, but given the high cost of college (compared to previous generations), it's certainly a consideration.
Yep, I agree and I do this too. Even in school I was willing to eat the docked points for doing it this way.
You're comparing two vastly different types of radio observatories. That's for an array where you have dozens to hundreds of amps, signal processors and antennas that require power. This would be much closer to the Arecibo telescope or the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope in power requirements.
With so many irrelevant advisories, I'm not sure I can take much from this report TBH. Not to mention that I disagree about MTTU, a stat that is clearly skewed toward pencil pushers.

The more time you spend updating dependencies, the less time you spend actually coding things. Well, unless the updates actually give you new features, which is generally not what people are looking for when running an update for some reason.

I feel like this doesn’t actually address any of my comment.

I’m specifically saying that the act of reading SSH logs for an internet-facing server is an exercise in futility. The kinds of things that will show up in the logs (brute force attempts, generally nmapping, etc) are not credible risks to even a largely unconfigured SSH daemon (as noted elsewhere in this thread, the bar to have an above average secure SSH service is basically “apply pubkey, disable password auth, celebrate”).

The attackers that are problematic don’t look out of place in your logs: somebody who stole a valid pubkey/password, the unlikely case of an SSH zero day, etc. Those are going to be single access attempts that just work. Unless you’re literally alerting on every successful auth, the logs aren’t helping you for active alerting.

Keeping your internet-facing SSH logs is important for investigative work: once you find out that your buddy accidentally put their private key in a pastebin, you can check if somebody used it to log into your server.
I'm specifically arguing that there has been little meaningful innovation between the late 1960s and 2020s. Outside internet protocols, applications, and appliances, what's been invented since the late 1960s?

Between 1712 and 1870, interchangeable parts, bifocals, lightning rods, cotton gins, spinning jennys, carbonated water, thermometers, guillotines, parachutes, hot air balloons, sandwiches, mayonnaise, gas turbines, internal combustion engines, matches, electric batteries, microphones, typewriters, sewing machines, barbed wire, reflecting telescopes, stethoscopes, gyroscopes, mechanical reapers, corn planters, bicycles, telegraphs, postage stamps, photography, staplers, airships, gliders, light bulbs, traffic lights, Portland cement, the Bessemer process, and tin cans were invented. Watt's steam engine was an iteration, a few incremental improvements over Newcomen's design.

And then most of the inventions that shape contemporary life came between 1870 and 1970.
This is signal to automakers that they must transition to EVs as they will no longer have a market for combustion vehicles to sell into. The more jurisdictions that enact these regulations, the greater the signal. Once automakers have retooled supply chains, the capital costs would be too great for them to switch back to fossil fuel vehicle manufacturing.

That’s a good question - perhaps it’s not different.
"We can't solve the issue because that would be unfair to the people who haven't gotten to make use of it yet" isn't a compelling argument.
The Computer Science experience in university is just so different compared to the other engineering disciplines. The incoming students have such widely different starting points in terms of skill, ability, and familiarity. In my class I had people who could basically program as a full time job. A security guru who embodied the 'hackerman' stereotype. And of course, people who had literally only made "hello world" websites in Netscape Composer. I personally had done some programming in BASIC and Java but was by no means comfortable with OOP.

It is so difficult to design a curriculum that accommodates such a wide range of experience. One of my professors told me that he shares the same challenges as some of the Arts teachers. Because, they too, get students who run the gamut from amateur to masters-level. And some of those painters or musicians are better than the professors themselves.

One of the ways to accommodate this is to teach a lot more about theory. Things you would not learn if you had taught yourself. The upside is that you are more likely to teach all the students something new. The downside is some of the students think the theoretical stuff is not valuable because they won't get to apply it very often. I for instance, know about Big-O but in practical terms I know I shouldn't nest loops and let some standard library implement a nlog(n) sort for me.
I think I like the outlined approach (minus the rant) that GP described - it sounds kind of simple, yet elegant.
This is true. You can find the 'American style' in the UK occasionally, especially in fiction – it's not exceptionally rare.

But regardless, the styles have come to be known as 'American' and 'British' because they generally are preferred in American and British English respectively, even if it's not absolute: Americans tend to be taught US style, and Brits tend to be taught British style.
Sure, and that probably creates difficulties for men and women to understand each other.
In my experience any system that is bigger then a demo raw SQL is the perfect abstraction unless you need to support multiple database types, which many systems do not. Complex queries are much harder to read in Ecto then SQL. You need to understand SQL anyways. I like working in and building systems using AyeSQL that allow you to compile SQL to functions. So use Ecto for the easy stuff, if you want, but the complex queries stick to SQL. It is already the perfect abstraction.
> Let's say your jet blows apart at 35,000 feet. You exit the aircraft, and you begin to descend independently. Now what? First of all, you're starting off a full mile higher than Everest, so after a few gulps of disappointing air you're going to black out.

Not mentioned is the fact that at 35k feet, the average temp is around -40 to -55 degrees Celsius. I don’t know if it would kill you, but you’d probably freeze some skin, and if you try to look you might freeze your eyeballs. It will be hard to move muscles after sixty seconds of 120mph freezing wind.

I’m curious if the passing out part is true. It certainly might be. My experience skydiving is that I would get light headed and seeing stars at 18k feet unpressurized, and the instant I jumped out of the plane, everything got better. Seemed like the force of the air in my face somehow packed all the oxygen I needed. 35k is very different from 18k, obviously.

* Oh yeah, and speaking from experience, I know it’s hard to see straight without wearing goggles when in free fall. I forgot to put them on once before jumping. Never forgot again after that.
You are probably right. Although I'd assume that given the cover was very close to the epicenter of the detonation, it would've been almost instantly vaporized and turned into plasma even before air resistance would've done the job.

Changes like this affect action today. If you are an automaker, are you going to spend limited development money on cars you won't be able to sell in NY in the future? Investors are already pricing in how well automakers are going to be prepared for bills like this and EU/UK laws. So bills like this actually cause a lot of positive change today.

> More generally, I'm growing tired of how signaling is usurping rational behavior.

In what way is retiring gas-powered vehicles by 2035 not "rational behavior"? Climate change is very real and the deadline is 14 years from now. If anything you could argue that this law isn't rational enough because it doesn't take quick enough action.
Privilege is primarily about money, not race. If you want to help poor people, then tax the rich more regardless of race and underprivileged minorities will benefit naturally more.

All this obsession with race is just a way for the elites to urn attention away from actual solutions which would hurt their profits.
To be clear, that's an option in America as well. They're usually called a "Joint Vocational School" or a "Career Center", and they offer a variety of options.

For example the one I went to had:

* Public Safety to learn firefighting and Emergency Medical Services

* HVAC to learn a heating and cooling

* Building trades to learn electrical, carpentry, plumbing

* Software development

* Medical Assisting (a pre-nursing route)

* Cosmetology for hair stylists and makeup artists

* Engineering and Precision Machining Technologies

There are plenty of other options at that specific career center as well.

A lot of my peers 'looked down' on this choice, as they viewed the "college path" as the only option to be successful in America, and considered this an inferior education.

Can you elaborate on that? It seems to me that in most of today's capitalistic societies these goods/services are totally interchangeable. If I'm rich and willing to pay for quiet sleepy time next week, I will get it. If I'm poor and can't pay for potable water today, I won't get it. It doesn't matter how relatively important to each individual the service is.
If this law actually takes effect in 2035 it will encourage people to keep older, more polluting, and less safe cars on the road. Banning a gas-powered car sale is equivalent to imposing an extremely high tax, say $1 million, on such a sale. Even if you think global warming is a serious problem, the damage from a gas-powered car is not infinite. If it is say $10K compared to an EV, then that is what the tax ought to be.
So, I get and appreciate the lack of notifications and distractions on HN.

That said, I'd really like a way to find, distraction free(so in some submenu), reply comments.

The current way seems narcissistic, as I have to go through my whole history to see why may have replied. And even then I have to do math to figure out if I'd seen it or not.
This is really nice. I have always thought that the simplest way to publish a note was just throw a txt file into a folder that is synced to a website. I actually do that with keybase.io; now, this photo-to-publish idea is nice. Almost frictionless.
Please don't use "rational" to mean "agrees with the axioms I've chosen to be important." These people are acting rationally, but reason doesn't govern what you value in your starting assumptions, only the conclusions you draw from those assumptions. Signalling is the rational outcome of the core values encouraged in our politicians.

> For example, "I have said it all." could be used to emphasize the period itself - but in those cases, jarring punctuation like `.".` or `.",` would actually help to emphasize the importance of the period.

Even there, doing it like you did and putting the quoted sentence in the middle, not at the end, of the outer one looks about a gazillion times better
The latter example is easily taken care of though, because there has to be a market to take your bet if the market has no reason to believe you would win your odds are really low thus your winnings over your billion are really low. On top of that your risk is not symmetric as you've exposed your self for some to now spend what millions to campaign for you and thus bet against that pool.

My point is your example is contrived and not really useful.
Also possible in 2035: Ban on gas-powered car sales in New York delayed due to X.
It might work similar to low pressure, where you see the wheel light up on the dashboard. Ofcourse the human part can make the decision on what to do about it, and if you want to replace tyres, how many at once.
I felt like doing so changed the meaning of the quote, and it felt like a misrepresentation... I ended up rewording the sentence so it wouldn’t end with the quotation, and have just actively avoided ending sentences in quotes ever since.

I appreciate the skill involved in avoiding ambiguity. The hard part is knowing the unknown unknowns, ya know? I read both sentences the same way and can't really fathom why someone else wouldn't! (Of course, I don't have the context of the original quote here, so maybe that comes into play... but I don't know, and probably shouldn't have to!)
Could we not just reuse an existing gas car for these cases? It seems preferable to repair those than build new ones if we’re talking about environmental impact.
It's sort of the only way to do remote working internationally as far as I know, other than having a company open a legal entity/business in every location they employ developers. The risk is for companies without a dedicated legal/HR department they might just re-use contractor 'boilerplate' that assumes idemnity insurance and that doesn't adapt to the quirks of being a pseudo-FTE contractor.
The same thing that happens if the SSH daemon dies, I guess?

FWIW, I’ve been using Wireguard for a while (probably ~2 years?) as an always-on VPN for multiple mobile devices, and also as a reverse tunnel to pinhole service access inside a LAN. The Wireguard config and daemon has been rock solid. The only time it’s failed is when I messed up the AllowedIPs, but that failure occurs at configuration time. It has never crashed, or stopped routing traffic correctly, or otherwise failed in a way that interrupted traffic flows.
Aren't these multiway systems essentially what we see with ambiguous grammars that yield parse forests rather than parse trees? The "forest" here is a forked parallel computation started upon encountering any ambiguous rewrite.

One application of these might be to resolve the meaning of probabilities under the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics. When an interaction takes place, a number of worlds are created for each possible outcome, but it was never clear how to formally derive the probability of finding yourself in any given world (the Born rule).

Under the section titled "Observers, Reference Frames and Emergent Laws" in this article, you can see some branches merging again in that first graph, so perhaps the probabilities of the Born rule are due to parallel computations that merge in this way, ie. the probability you'd find yourself in the BBBB world rather than the AA world at step 3 of the computation is 2/3 vs. 1/3, respectively. If rules generate recurring patterns as shown there, these might show up as stable probabilities in aggregate.
> Pledge/unveil are manifestly more successful, being used pervasively (though not really by programs which do not primarily target openbsd).

Because of their simplicity, they are easily added as a patch to a ported application. There are probably more ports using them than programs that target openbsd.
The early 2030s will see a heck of a lot of gas sedans sold as the people who put on tons of miles buy them in anticipation of needing something to get them through until EVs meet their needs.
> Privilege is primarily about money, not race.

In the United State our history makes it absolutely about race too. The legacy of slavery and racial segregation didn't magically disappear in 1965. The limited amount I know about Canadian history is that something similar could be said about the treatment of First Nations.
How would we generate the identical cog factory workers that 1921 requires if we customize education?

The problem with education in the USA is its even more backwards focused than what happens with military strategy. "Better education" in the USA means optimizing for your great grandparents experience. If thats the opposite of modern reality, well, too bad, it'll filter for kids that are flexible and open minded, which ironically is pretty useful in the modern world.
If you think about the kind of development schedules auto manufacturers do, this makes some sense. A lot of manufacturers seem to do a major refresh of a model every 5 to 10 years and and do incremental updates in between every year or two, so putting this kind of sunset on it says to each manufacturer that it doesn’t make sense to do more than about one major refresh or new model of ICE car. So this will see new models getting fairly scarce by 2030 I think. By then, they might keep a couple of lines going for those few years, but basically 100% of the new and exciting cars will be electric. (This is assuming similar laws in most Western markets).
