Collectivism is a take on a Marxist "To everyone from his means to everyone to his needs". Their is multiple ways of doing this, the ordo-liberal + socialist way (You give up to XXXX€/month to every handicapped adult, depending on his handicap), or the marginalist (pre-1920 capitalism from Menger and Walras) + communist way, which is what USSR under Stalin attempted with no success and china did with great failure. It is deeply rooted in general equilibrium model theory (Again, read Walras) and suppose that a perfect market balance exist (theoretically true), and that the State can organize it.

More modern takes on marginalism make the assumption that as market are chaotic, only deregulation can lead to true market balance but as that was tested 150 years ago and did not work, it feel to a lot of young economists that general balance is oversimplified and is pretty much useless in real life, although partial equilibrium might be attainable (MIRAGE) in microeconomics.

Macroeconomics are complicated, tied politically, nobody really understand it, no even macroeconomists, but everyone fake it enough. If economy interest you, you should read economists books (commented, because those are hard to understand), probably from Adam Smith and upward, and notice each of them turn their comprehension of previous to their political advantage (Hello Mankiw!). Its basically the same work ethics as continental philosophy, maybe even worse.

How would that work? If both the maternal drug use and the ADHD outcome are the result of a third familial confounding variable, then it's reasonable to expect that this third variable also leads to paternal drug use.

This would be corroborated by the fact that siblings of kids whose mothers took Paracetamol during pregnancy also experienced higher ADHD.

As always in these things, effect sizes are small, confounding variables are huge, and much much much larger socio economic factors that we as a society could actually do something about are routinely ignored.
Yeah. Lots of studies are readily available. A good starting point is Cochrane reviews of acetaminophen for pain - acute, chronic, muscular, neurological, joint, spinal, and otherwise. There's a similar amount of material showing little to no effect on reducing fever, or providing any anti inflammatory effects at all.

It's fairly conclusive evidence, please take the time to review.
"I always thought the US should have produced more consoomer-appealing propaganda. We should have had the Avengers tell us to take the vaccine to defeat Thanos-19."
The United Kingdom post-WWII would be a much better comparison, since well it's more recent and the UK and USA share more history, culture, and context. I tend to side with the viewpoint that the lessening role of international leadership by the USA is more due to our internal infighting and lack of resolve as a few recent Economist articles suggested. That also fits with the UK's shift in status as an international power post WWII as well. However, even with that type of shift, leadership in tech industries and other fields won't disappear from the US that quickly if at all.

What do you mean? Airbus planes have been using software very heavily ( fly by wire for instance) since the first models, and recent ones ( A350) have pretty serious server rooms onboard.

Just because Boeing are incompetent and criminally negligible doesn't mean that airplanes shouldn't use any software.

As a software developer forced to work with data scientists who refuse to learn Python there is nothing I hate more than R.

Yes I felt the same. It always just disappointed me that it was built on top of the JVM, even though (or maybe because) I did write professional Java code for a few years.
I can understand the decision and the reasoning behind it, but this made Clojure feel very limited, made it feel like it will never really "grow" as a language because it always had to stay within the Java realm.

Spathiphyllum dislike cold and people messing with their roots when repotting. Apart of that they are low maintenance and also known to remove toxics like formaldehyde and trichlorethylene from the air in labs and rooms.

Rosemary needs dig deep in the soil or in a big clay pot. Die in a day with their roots cooked if left in small plastic black pots. They need also full sun, but not when you buy it. Only after they develop its roots and pass the shock of being moved from a greenhouse to scorching sun. Big Rosmarinus plants have a bigger rootball and are much easier to keep alive.
"Objectively worse" in what way?

Depression is up, house prices to income ratios are much worse, education and healthcare costs are both way up while quality (measured by test scores and healthy life years) has barely changed, social connections and number of friends are down...

Carriers are a small fraction of the problem, Google, Apple and Facebook are the main part of it, and all three of them are outside of the jurisdiction where I live, where carriers are not allowed legally to sell this data to advertisers because of the lack of a legal basis for processing. That doesn't mean it doesn't happen but it does mean that doing so is illegal.

Emergency services and LE after properly executed warrants are the only parties that should have access to this information without your explicit consent to be used for advertising.

Just enabling 'Google maps' on your phone should not give Google, the advertising giant unfettered access to your location data just to give one example.
As a native speaker average is almost exclusively used to for mean and people specify median or mode when that’s what they are talking about. The same way people say mean without specifying arithmetic, geometric, or harmonic mean then it’s the arithmetic mean.

It’s only when someone says something like the average family rather than saying the average income when things get ambiguous. Typical on the other hand is closer to mean because it’s tossing out outliers.
One of the main reasons the US banned supersonic flights overland is that the only plane capable of them wasn't American. The ban came only after Boeing abandoned their plans for a competitor.

It is also easy if you deliver a machine that can do what they want it to do with superior performance, long battery life, no noise, and no heat.
> I installed the latest versions of node and npm and upgraded all packages.

Laughter of recognition from this side. I am working on an application that has a tiny bit of Web UI. Basically one button, "Yes, I want this thing" and some text that guides the person staring at the button to decide if they in fact do want this or don't. I didn't write any of that code, and my Javascript knowledge is pretty rudimentary, but hey it's just a button right?

On Monday I'm sat (virtually) with the guy who wrote that part, pair programming the dependency injection stuff so that this button can actually cause stuff to happen. It builds and runs fine on my machine, we make lots of progress. During the week I focus on other parts of the system (including a red herring where we're convinced for an hour we have a DST Root CA X3 expiry issue but it's actually a syntax error in a Puppet file on the in-house node classifier), but on Friday we're ready to check the current state. However the guy who wrote the button code is out. No problem though right, I understand the larger system, just hit build?

Nope. I get a JSON parsing error, which, it turns out, is how npm or node communicates "I am the wrong major version" because of course it is. Incremental improvements to a single page with a button on it had resulted in needing a newer major version in less than one week.
Yes, from the title I was expecting a smoking gun.

Edit to add: acetaminophen is also known as Paracetamol.
Also, the hyper cars that can reach 400km/h cannot travel at such speeds. They don't have enough range and their tires would blow relatively quickly.
> In California, for example, non-competes are illegal.

Illegal or just non enforceable? What is the fine or punishment to a company that would do it anyway?
I have to agree. Level of suck at management is also unrelated to any one quantified linear scale so the mean is the result of a particularly arbitrary personal (or national like GPA with range bias vs 0-20 with other bias) definition of a corresponding numerical ratings so median and mode have fewer degrees of freedom for arbitrary results.

It is also pretty absurd to assume without explanation that a minority who are especially bad at management have even their minority presence in management given that if sucking matters it should correlate with some type of failure that eventually correlates to drop out.
The problem here is that we add too much extra meaning to version identifiers. In semantic versioning, if you're at 1.38 and want to release a cool new version with many cool features and a much faster engine, while still retaining backwards compatibility, you're stuck with releasing a 1.39. If you call your new version 2.0, you signify that it's backwards incompatible.

We should have two differently-looking version identifiers, one for compatibility-tracking purposes and one for signifying the scope of changes to humans. The compatibility version numbers could look like 2ah4, where the first number is the major version, the letter (or series of letters) is a minor, increasing alphabetically and going to "aa" after "z", and the last number is a patch.
I don’t understand why the FCCis mandating such accuracy. It seems like this is regulatory cover that then enables the tracking
You could easily accidentally make it easier rather than harder to pinpoint you.
Unfortunately this is a very common problem with basically all modern high-end laptops that have a macbook-like form factor (e.g. not bulky gaming laptops with lots of cooling & ventilation).

The M1 MacBooks are the outliers here. They go to toe on many benchmarks with e.g. the Ryzen 3700X and even beats it in some areas such as single-thread performance or through dedicated hardware (e.g. matrix multiplication). And the M1 can be passively cooled. After many generations of Intel MacBooks, the M1 MacBook was a revelation.

I am curious though whether they can maintain this in newer models, which are supposed to have 6 (or perhaps even more) high-performance cores. We'll see.

It's just not physically possible to make a machine that combines high end power hungry hardware, adequate cooling for that hardware, and a compact form factor. [...] a gaming laptop if

I feel like towers are under-appreciated these days. A lot of people I see with these overpowered laptops use it plugged into a screen anyway. Why not buy a tower with a Ryzen 5900X or 5950X? It will blow away your laptop CPU and with a high-performance tower cooler, it will stay cool and won't make a lot of noise. Same for GPUs. Every time I hear about people buying a laptop with an NVIDIA GPU to do machine learning... Just buy a tower and SSH into the machine. Your life will be so much more pleasant.
Cryptocurrency really feels like a solution desperately in need of a problem.
I'm not sure the Vietnamese word comes from Chinese, even if the meaning is the same. Your link says that the Vietnamese word that's a cognate of the Chinese one is thanh not xanh.

Not so much as a bad version of Common Lisp, but a half-baked Lisp. I am well aware that a response like this is bound to stir the opinions of other people about things like this, but I am also bound to express mine. There is not one correct response, and that everything can be considered subjective.

Clojure (on the JVM) is a lisp-y way to talk to the JVM and the rest of its ecosystem. Because it uses s-expressions, it allows for abstractions that are not possible otherwise. I have used Clojure myself in the past. It was fun.

However, there are still many things that are not polished in Clojure that are well-established in Common Lisp. The debugger of Common Lisp is one of the best out there. Its object system is also top class. Backtraces in Common Lisp allow you to get as much information as you can get from your program. Metaprogramming in Common Lisp is also out there in the top. The inverse, however, is not true. You need to have a PhD in JVM in order to read Clojure backtraces. You can easily create a program then dump it into a single executable with Common Lisp, not so much with Clojure. You want fast startup? Not with Clojure.

If you haven’t spent a significant amount of time with the different kind of lisps, it’s hard to make objective comparisons and judgement—everything that Clojure has would look cool and fancy.

I know some people who share the same sentiments that I have, who won’t reply to this thread. However, I’m a fool to even write this response.
Luck, and small capital. I only invested what i could loose, i estimated that to be 5000€, bought LVMH and Amazon stock at the right time (this was not really luck), and sold it at the right time too (this was luck). Got 6900€ in less than a year. Reinvested in in index fund, less hassle and time looking at a trading app (although loosing it all would not impact me, i might have a weird brain imbalance and this was not healthy).

Ransomware make private sector aware of security issues and resilient against attacks. It’s like developing antibodies to viruses.

Interference from public sector may actually not be successful in the long run, as companies simply adjust to that, and keep ignoring security at a new equilibrium level.
Companies move to states with fewer labor laws and cheaper labor also.

Is the only difference here that there is a possibility of federal tax revenue being distributed throughout one country? You can even go one more level down to cities and states rather than states and country.

Spathiphyllum belong to a pretty evil big family and are poisonous as all good Aroids are. You can expect a combination of microscopic crystal arrows tearing flesh and acid being throw in the wounds later for maximum fun.

We have it indoors exactly because that (being poisonous are often left untouched by animals increasing its decorative value). Can kill a cat by asphysia perfectly but this is really unusual. Pets can eventually bite them, once, and learn fast not to do it again. The dangerous part is if they would swallow 'a chunk of burning fire'. Will not happen easily unless your dog or cat is a totally clueless idiot.

Unlike Windows based machines, MacBooks always use the AMD GPU when an external monitor is plugged in. I forget the exact reasoning, but it is the way Apple designed these machines.

In 2016 when they were redesigned I don't believe the intel IGPU could drive 4k @ 60hz, and Apple also wanted compatibility with the LG 5K display they partnered with. The best solution was to just force all external displays to be routed thru the AMD GPU.

No, not “it makes me money” but “it succeeded to build an entire ecosystem of partners inheriting from a central producer of intelligence work, all of this succeeding to produce better output than the established player, Intel.” This is “good enough” as a measure of success, I don’t care where the money flows as long as an industry is being built. Actually that’s the sole role of money, which could be replaced by anything you like (point system, exchange, central planning).

There's indications that the Russian intelligence services are intertwined with organized crime. The oligarchs get help laundering money out of the state, the intelligence services get untraceable money that they can use to bribe foreign assets and the organized crime syndicates get paid for their money laundering services and get a free pass from the authorities as long as they don't inconvenience those in power too much. Seems like one of the most impressive rackets in history.
