I am surprised the professors would say anything about a student with a disability. My schools have all had offices for disabilities that worked for accommodations and most professors, or humans hopefully, would work with them happily.
The potential for a massive jump in battery chemistry is why I personally have not purchased a BEV yet. I'm leasing a LEAF, which has been great overall, but I'm not going to buy until the battery chemistry is settled here in a few years. There's a high probability that every BEV on the road today will be considered antiquated (and potentially unsafe) in 5 years.
I always enjoy an article that starts by insulting my intelligence - especially if it can do it right in the headline. I enjoy it so much that I won't even bother to read it.
Maybe headlines like this are necessary to create change?
I think the problem is that people don’t follow through their thinking or double check their facts, leading to flights of fancy.

This is why Occam’s razor is such a useful tool. Suppose your conspiracy is correct. Now how many things do you have to explain to make this conspiracy work? If it’s too many, maybe your ideas are wrong and you need a simpler answer.

> I've seemed to notice a pretty big uptick in 'uncle so and so went off the deep end so we had to cut off communication' type stories.

I wonder how long that sort of cutting off has been happening in the past. I know there are members of my extended family I don’t associate with due to their crazy beliefs, but I haven’t talked about it.
> I guess you might save a bit of money using extremely old hardware and keeping it for a while.

If you get the best, and keep it for a while then even though it won't be bleeding edge anymore it'll still be in the middle of mediocre.

When it comes to computers, mediocre is actually pretty usable. A $600 computer can do pretty much everything, including handling normal scale non-enterprise software development. I didn't really realize it until I went back to school for science, but many projects are bound by the capacity of your mind and not the speed of your CPU.

If I do need computing power, I use a desktop.
And I used to get so much work done instead of driving.

Your time is precious and it's often better spent doing more important things than paying full attention to the road.
I've been looking into this lately. Seems like it would not be that hard to set up a factory in Eastern Europe somewhere to produce cells.

They won't be top of the line, but still useful and profitable, given that the best cells will be taken up by megacorps for the foreseeable future.

You don't need the highest capacity stuff for power tools and home solar/wind storage, for example.

The machinery is quite expensive, however.
Most of cell energy density comparison don't remove cell casings mass from comparison.

This way pouch cells outperform hard cased ones so much on capacity, but in reality it's a big delusion as you still have to put structure to hold cells in place — and you can't do it with flimsy, paper thin casings.
There is one simple, easy way to stop abuse (both online and offline): stop accepting when your peers do it.

There are more people who think abusive behavior is bad than there are abusers who think it's good. If all the people who think it's bad call it out when they see it, avoid people who do it, make a point admonishing people who do it, refuse to accept working with people who do it at work, refuse to socialize with people who do it in social situations, refuse to watch TV shows where it's shown to be funny, refuse to pay to see it at the cinema, and so on then, eventually, it would start to stop.

Literally the only way to stop it is if society as a collective group makes it clear that it's not acceptable.

Sadly this means we're stuck with it.

All windows needed to do is support setting that API to UTF-8. It's not like it doesn't already support multi-byte encodings. It's not like they even needed to even assign an ID for UTF-8 or implement the conversions - those existed already. All they needed to do is allow programs to set their codepage to UTF-8. This finally became possible two years ago. Better late than never I guess.
"Right now, consumer GPUs top out at 32GB of VRAM. The M1 Max has, in a sense, 64GB (minus OS baseline overhead) of VRAM for its GPU to use."

We've had AMD APU's for years, you can shove 256GB of RAM in there. But noone cares because a huge chunk of memory attached to a slow GPU is useless.
>It's ridiculous that bots, trolls, and sockpuppets are given the same esteem and protections as real people.

Agreed. I think any talk of the problems of online anonymity should be focused on bots first and foremost. From my understanding, it's pretty easy to detect like 90% of bot users. Can't we go after those instead? I don't really care that real people online can be mean anonymously, because at the end of the day, it's just one person. But an army of bots? That has a much stronger affect, especially when they all amplify each other's posts and game the algorithms so that they get promoted and seen by more people.

Any talk of the "dangers of online anonymity" that isn't about bots is just a deceptive way of arguing for more online surveillance. This example seems especially egregious, because they're somehow using an MP's murder to push it even though it has literally nothing to do with it.
Its offensive to me that if a white guy had stabbed anyone left of center, headlines would gleefully have rushed to announce far right/white supremacist terrorism, even prematurely; but when a white christian politician is targeted by a muslim immigrant, in a fucking church no less, not only do you not see "terrorism" in any headline, the vast majority of outlets fail to even describe the attacker beyond age and sex. Especially British publications.

I had suspected that it was a minority specifically because of the cryptic reporting of the incident, and it turns out you're right, now that a handful of US/international outlets have been willing to provide details.

And this article is part of a pattern of deflection. I watch Al Jazeera and they had the gall to interview three different minority MPs and heavily imply that minorities are being targeted.

This collective demonization of a global minority by western outlets, together with the gaslighting that whites (and especially white christians) aren't being targeted, is not going to end well. If you want to argue that its a deserved comeuppance that's one thing, but the way that these outlets implicitly collude to protect the identity of minority, and only minority attackers, is underhanded and dishonest.
That Tesla's way of operating has lots of potential to clash with German bureaucracy/culture is certainly true to some degree but in this case, an administrative process was changed with possibly not enough time in advance for everyone to notice or react. Since the office is unsure how the change would hold up in court, they are re-doing it out of an abundance of caution. (At least this is how I read the article.)
The important missing context is that a monad has `(return, bind)`, while a comonad has `(extract, extend)`, and both have their own respective laws letting you reason about combinations of those operations.

You can certainly do what you describe if you have a monad, but since you can't even try to unwrap a value if you don't know what the monad is concretely, you have no way to write a function `T a -> b` that's generic over T. Functions `T a -> b` only really make sense for comonads, which give you the `extract` and `extend` functions as primitive.

one example: vaccines are the status quo, I presume you agree on that. Most platforms are removing content that cause "vaccine hesitancy". YouTube has even expanded their this to apply to all vaccines [1]. Furthermore, it seems relevant to point out that dictionaries have updated their definitions of "anti-vaxxer" to include anyone questioning even the government mandates themselves [2], which has opened the door to many cases where people have supported the vaccine, but opposed the mandates, yet still been deplatformed labeled as anti-vaxxer.

It sounds like they politely tried to clarify. Dan was amused that they thought he might be stupid. But asking for a laptop based on such bizarre criteria without attempting to set any context for the human person who deals with not CPU designers 99.9999% of the time, and then smugly calling out said human person for not immediately giving him the benefit of the doubt, then blogging about the exchange in a self-glorifying post… I mean, I’m not personally offended, but I can see why people would be bothered.
At the risk of being a non-popular opinion, I don't find tax filing to be particularly difficult. Maybe its because my job is to solve pretty hard problems all day. But the average person/family who doesn't itemize have a Sched C, it's quite easy.

The thing to understand about filing is that (particularly for W2 wage earners) you're not telling the Government how much you made and how much you owe. They know that already.

If you make a mistake in your filing, good or bad, they will send you a friendly letter correcting your mistake. The filing is just acknowledging the debt to them.
Intuit is the worst kind of company, but anyone who has dealt with the tax authorities in California would probably tell you to take the state's stated intentions with a grain of salt, or 1000.

The California FTB would love to tell you how much money it thinks you owe them, have you not question them, and make your life hell if you think they messed up.

While it's fair to say that lower-income W2 taxpayers are probably easier to calculate for, don't assume that the California FTB would go out of its way to help taxpayers.

Just a sample of the nastiness and incompetence that is the FTB: https://sacramento.cbslocal.com/2017/11/21/franchise-tax-boa...
Here’s a hypothesis: Dan needed to transport the laptop before opening it. It could have been a gift and the goal was for it to fit, wrapped, in a small suitcase. Or for some reason he needed a shrink-wrapped unopened laptop somewhere (as evidence that it hadn’t been tampered with) and the quality of the laptop made no difference whatsoever.

Even if this is wrong, I bet telling the salesperson that it was a gift and he wanted the smallest package would have avoided funny looks.

I hate wasting at least a day if not more of my life every year filing. As time goes on and i have more assets the time to file goes up as well and gathering all the required documents with every bank having different timelines is a nightmare.

But what can I do about it? I would imagine if it went to a vote overwhelmingly people would say no I don’t want to file like this every year. But here we are and honestly I don’t have much energy left these days to be mad about anything as it’s wearing on my health.

>If you did you would realize things haven’t changed that drastically in 5+ years now. The new libraries and frameworks are small iterations that take a weekend to check out and pick up.

I think the issue is the fact that the browser has no native rich and efficient components like desktop tookits have.

So you implement some coold grid view to showcase all the user projects but later some user created many projects and because angular performance is garbage you need to solve it now, You can do a shit solution and implement pagination or waster your time and implement a DataGridView similar like in desktop toolkits that is actually smart and efficient or maybe you do the shittiest thing and install some random stuff that might give you what you need. Same problem would not exist on desktop and probably mobile tookits.

Repeat same issues for all possible widgets that exist in a mature toolkit.

On the web you always spend a lot of time on shittiest things instead of the cool part. A designer wants say a horizontal scrollbar that would work only with the mouse(no Ctrl to press) =? install a library, a designer wants a dropdown with some extra styling -> install a library (or create a inferior dropdown - see YT autocomplete one that gets stuck on all the time) , modals -> create your own system. The only widget that is not handicapped in the browser is the text input one.

People will say how in the past on desktop you can drag and drop widgets and make the app , the reason it works is because those widgets where powerful and efficient. Probably mobile devs can understand this point, you don't have to hunt for a framework or library to get a smart and efficient table widget.

On one hand, seeing a trend of employers demanding you don't talk about your salaries makes me think we should share them more...

on the other, yeah I'm a personal person. I really don't want to share this sort of information.

This article speaks to my soul. All my life I've been told how intelligent I am. It's been such a massive driver for my own insecurities and fear around anything I do, since my identity is tied up so much in being right and not being wrong, in continuing to present this image of infallible intelligence. It's likely also fed into my issues with depression I've had all my life. I can consistently get people to see how intelligent I might be, but it's always such a struggle. It's like walking a tightrope. I hate it.
I mean, it being Tesla, my guess would be that they just didn't do their homework.
Also why I was disappointed when Intuit bought Credit Karma.

The first social media site I ever used was Slashdot and back then not only did they allow anonymous accounts but you could impersonate people. Mostly that was used to make jokes (like billg commenting on some Linux news).

Then they added user accounts and a login. Anonymous posting persisted (the famous Anonymous Coward) but impersonating mostly stopped.
I will say—my personal experience, in dissecting DX7 presets, is that feedback is not really used that much. If you are porting DX7 sounds to a different architecture, you can remove the feedback and replace it with something like a noise source, or another operator, much of the time, or even remove it altogether.

This is just my personal experience. I often dig through DX7 patches in order to reimplement them for demoscene projects.

Sounds like you’re getting good use out of the TX81Z. I have the TX802, which is on paper a better synth, but controlling it from a DAW is much more of a pain because the program change messages control the “performance”, rather than the patch. So it’s been exiled from my rack, at least for now.

Isn't this already the case? They know how much they think you owe. The only difference now is if you will out the form differently and they disagree they can also accuse you of intentional defrauding them.
Can you help me understand why you wouldn't just stay with the old Lead-Acid batteries? You can get a 150Ah for $110, for example, whereas this 100Ah you linked to is $376.

I'm sure there are benefits, but I don't know much about batteries to understand why you'd make that tradeoff.
Yes.

In the US, at least my area, the window for public action to make a difference passed by April 2020; after that its into the wildlife and we're living with it want to or not.

All the hysteria since then has been pointless (as far as public health is concerned) political kabuki that has been corrosive to mental health on an individual and social level. We didn't need to do this to ourselves.
Yes, the filesystem access was slow both in Intel processor and now M1. I suppose that is to do with the Virtualisation involved. It felt a little faster accessing filesystem on the M1, but that’s just me and insignificant difference.

I’d say if you’re reliant on Docker for work, and that includes filesystem sharing, Macs may not be your best choice.
You may want to review Russell's A History of Western Philosophy. Bertrand pretty effectively shredded most of the fantastical precepts Platonism relies on in his analysis in the chapter on Theory of Ideas (15 in the Audible audio book).

The basic gist is that the basis of Platonism is metaphysical more than logical. Mysticism is the key bedrock of the form of the Good. Plato's ideal of Ultimate Truth is self-contradictory when reconciled with Geometry.
Plato's lack of subtlety with syntax causes a lot of his arguments to fall flat, such as "beauty is beautiful." The analysis of the Parmenides is beautiful, highly recommended.

What a stupidly arrogant comment. Have you not heard of philosophy, for example?
There are questions and there are questions. Some questions in meetings are 'smart questions' intended to show you off and boost your stock a little, or move conversation to an area beneficial to you. Some questions are just ridiculous time wasters asked to show that you are there. There is a slim minority that asks questions to actually learn something and from experience I learned that those questions are best asked after the meeting directly to the person.
Dutchie here, never had an issue with tax returns in my country. You just go to the website, fill it in, done.

I don't get the context at all. Is the ELI5:

CA wanted to create their own tax return software. Intuit said no, and now they use Intuit or something?

Normally I understand context and such, but in this case: isn't it the obvious thing to do? Does the USA not have the back of their citizens?

I'm sorry to say it so charged but this seems desperately simple on what ought to be done here.

> I was extremely wrong and even felt a little guilty that I didn't bring it up sooner since they can and should be making more.

That's considerate of you, but I don't share your concern for two reasons. First data is readily available, so if they want to know they can. Secondly I've found that in general people value familiarity and stability more than maximizing salary. This is a personal choice they make and it's fine. In fact it's well known phenomenon that's been written about extensively [1]. In my personal network, very few are prone to "job hopping", many stay at the same company on the same apps for 5 or 10+ years. In these cases developers risk skill atrophy, which is a closely related concern.

"Anonymous" social media accounts can be tied back to a real person already a lot of the time. People are terrible about "doxing" themselves in places where pseudonyms are used. (Usually that's fine, since nobody is really out to get them and the sleuthing takes work.)

In the case of certain governments, the account owner is likely identifiable near 100% of the time, with not much effort.

Depending on what social media we're talking about, (and what corporations,) there may be corporations assembling pseudonym to identity mappings, too.

Making a law that forbids anonymity does help authoritarians, but it's mostly formalizing what is already an unspoken rule: that you can't truly be anonymous online. Other parties can throw away knowledge of you, like logless VPNs or TOR, but its next to impossible to verify they really do that.
The value to Uber is that it broke the taxi monopoly. Especially in second tier cities where calling a taxi meant that they might show up...eventually. This enables people to go out without a car - making more locations accessible and (maybe one of the largest benefits...) discouraging drunk driving. Environmental benefits are...highly overstated...but you can say the same thing for pretty much any innovation outside of the energy industry.
Because it's badly defined and so it's unanswerable because what it means changes depending on who you ask.
So? Because you find something easy, the rest of the country is supposed to be okay with a large company lobbying for less QoL for them?
I stand corrected. So, these days, null checks before free() are just for compatibility with very old systems, or more likely "tradition". I wonder where I got my wrong information? I have even seen null checks before delete in C++ code recently written by C programmers :o
Me too, but I am afraid the human end needs to think critically as well. You don't need ML/AI to have people do stupid shit because "computer told them to do so". A good example would be validators bundled with the web OpenStreetMap editor iD, which are good from far, far from good.
