Yikes, talk about missing the forest for the trees.

I'm not using the Simpsons episode as "evidence", I just thought Mrs. Krabapple's statement of "Now I don’t want you to worry, class, these tests will have no effect on your grades. They merely determine your future social status and success, if any." was such a hilarious statement, and while of course it is hyperbolic, does have evidence to support the gist, that leading kids into different "tracts" at such an early age can have an outsized effect on their life, and that effect can be unwarranted based on what can be small differences in the "cutoff" to get into gifted programs.
lol, CATL's first customer is Tesla. LG is also a major Tesla supplier. Idem for Pana and Samsung. Even BYD is expected to sell their cells to Tesla (under review as we speak).

These players are fighting for Tesla's contracts, and Tesla will keep buying all their batteries while adding their own production capacity (search for "project roadrunner"). What matters is 'who has access to the end customers' and to the best tech. Tesla has so much demand from grid operator that they can easily buy all the supply. They're just limited by their own production / assembly / installation capacity.

Why doesn’t anyone build a competing port? Is it just too expensive for someone to build? Or are there actual laws prohibiting the creation of another port?
There's lots of places where tiny upsides come with huge downsides. And yet for some reason people still accept them!

I mean philosophy, metaphysics and philosophy of mathematics have over 2k years of history and the only example of the influence that I know it had was that ancient Greeks didn't want to use 0 in accordance with the rule that being is and non-being is not, similarly with Pythagoreans hiding the existence of irrational numbers. If you know of some examples which had positive effect then I would really like to know about them and this is not a sarcasm or anything. I just fail to see the importance of the debate.

I don't think there is a real correspondence between math and some kind of 'mathematical reality' or Platonic heaven. Mathematical notions of truth are just mathematical. If you say something like "2+2=4 is true", you are making the purely mathematical statement "2+2=4", nothing more and nothing less. It's like saying "Sherlock Holmes lives at 221B Baker Street".
I don't see any massive red flags in the stuff reported.

I'm convinced based on what I know that Theranos engaged in deliberate fraud. But fraud is more than the sum of promotional practices that can be taken retrospectively or without context as sign of wrongdoing.

Having scripted demos that hide error messages is not really sketchy. It could be part of a fraud, or it could not, but it's not really telling.

I say this because we often see popular ethical judgements where it's made out that there is a clear line between good and bad and that because the key players were unethical, they just did a bunch of bad things. I don't see it that way. There are lots of individual small judgements, most of which could be completely benign, but that add up to a fraud in the bigger picture. It probably makes sense as part of a body of evidence in a trial, but it's not really as sensational as the tabloids would like it to be.

Incidentally, I think that Theranos and Enron are basically the same story (at least Bad Blood and The Smartest Guys in the Room are the same book). And the root cause in both is not direct lack of scruples, but believing that ideas are what's important and execution doesn't matter. The lesson to me, is that a good way to get into trouble you cant get out of (and both of these stories resulted in real people taking their lives) is to think that details don't matter and a good idea is all you need.

These are clearly conservative preferences, not objective truths.

Like social conservatism, there are valuable learnings embodied (steep roofs shed water -- more important in some climates than others), but there is also a lot of fearful aversion to the unfamiliar (i.e. anything not traditional western European).

A yellow light is not a stop sign, you are allowed to drive through it if you can make it. And it is safer to do so than to slam on the brakes, which might cause the car behind you to hit you.
Insane perhaps from the perspective of a dweller. Some neighborhoods put more emphasis on walkability, not merely from aesthetic consideration but a desire to have walkable local businesses. Of course this is not the case if the extent that you see your neighborhood is confined to your driving commute. If this is the case then aesthetics matter little and why not live farther outside the city.

Stagflation will still hammer Tesla pretty bad. Think of what it'd do to their sales if Model S was $200K instead of $70K. We're headed in that direction. And before you say "it can't happen here", I've seen it happen in a country which too thought "it can't happen". And then it did. That's why Bill Gates is buying farmland and Black Rock is buying houses - they know what's coming. Worse yet, unlike Russian hyperinflation in the 90s (or Venezuelan today), this will be _global_.
It's unbelievable that the established auto makers are just falling further and further behind on EVs while Tesla is opening the market wider and wider.
On the surface what you’re saying sounds right but the only example I can think of is neo-brutalism though there aesthetics was never the point.

>How prostitution can be not destructive for the psych?

>We can't look at our body as some crutch which you can sell for a couple of hours.

Disagree on both.

>And no, physical labor and repetitive work are not the same as prostitution.

Disagree it's worse, agree it's not the same. Let me elaborate with an old comment of mine: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21106425

>Prostitution is degrading for the person

Disagree.

Some Johns will surely try to degrade and abuse prostitutes (outside of a safe, agree-upon role play setting). We call these people "bullies" or even "criminals" (depending on that they do). Cutting off a prostitutes ability to file charges against such people by making her or him fear they will get arrested... well I reiterated that point enough by now, I feel.

>What's next, let's decriminalize child prostitution?

Recycled slippery slope FUD "somebody think of the children" argument, used a lots of times, e.g. when "they" claimed that same sex marriages would lead to people marrying their dogs, daughters and children.

I was planning to give you a more detailed response, but after reading this, and the "male capitalist bias" bull post you linked, I am honestly not so keen on spending brain cycles on arguing with you.

From one of your other comments (I just got curious now, after you linked the other poster):

>In capitalistic society everything can be called labour, including selling people, their organs and their genitals for sex.

What the actual fuck is this false equivalency?

Selling people and selling organs is hardly the same as doing some consensual work for paying customers.

I am pretty sure nobody here even made that argument, but I guess it's easier to attack that strawman.

>It leaves something that will make people realize that they have nothing to lose but their chains.

Oh hurray, Marx is alive!

Sorry, but you cannot eat "empowerment" and you cannot break the chains of "famine" or "overpopulation". What's the goal here? Bloody revolution against capitalism towards a collective utopia? This would only work if everybody was pure and virtuous, and that's just not the reality. Even Rousseau acknowledged that.

You can make things fairer, and we should strive to do that. But "breaking chains" rhetoric in this context is counter-productive at best, and destructive at worst, as well as divorced from reality.

> I fail to see how IQ tests are racially biased

IQ is environmentally malleable; particularly relevant to this, nutrition near the time of the test is relevant, and this is strongly associated with socioeconomic status, even moreso before children enter school where meal programs exist as a levelling force. Processes like NY once-and-done test at 4 years old maximize the disparities produced this way (later start or multiple chance programs that test in school mitigate some of that disparity.)

The BMW i4 should be available next spring in the US. Looks like a regular 4-series, and faster and cheaper than an M4.

Sure, more expensive than a Model 3, but you get an actual luxury vehicle.

Tesla is still unbeaten at performance/dollar or range/dollar, so if that's important, go for it. But if other things are more important, the competition sure is heating up.
Actually, it sounds awesome, provided they recommend a great product I would not otherwise notice, don't spend too much time copying, etc. Not sure what your problem is with that offer.
The real problem is, security needs to be inherent to how developers, managers, work. Instead, security is often a bolt on, after thought, or put off until "thing $x is done".

One example, many popular frameworks. How do you audit every single piece of code brought in by, say, laravel? And how do you do it, if developers want to be able to reuse code?

Answer? You cannot. At all. You can't even reliably handle license compliance.

Yet, we use such frameworks, because security is not first, or even last sometimes. It's not part of the process, it's a thing to think about when a dev, a department has free time.

Many companies have a security team, an audit team. What?! You don't get secure by having people look at security after development, and then spend time fighting over fiscal concerns, to get a code re-write.

I think none of this will ever be fixed, until the CTO position becomes like the CFO position. Mandatory requirements, jailtime for CTOs if they breach certain regulations, and the authority for a CTO to tell everyone from board to CEO "no, thing X will be done".

Yet no one wants that, because of cost, and a desire to get to market first.

Mathematical platonism is ridiculous quasi-religious mumbo-jumbo that keeps philosophers employed.

You've only ever explained a circle to other humans. You've only ever learned about circles from other humans, or artifacts (not circles!) authored by humans.

No human has seen a perfect mathematical circle with their senses, because they don't exist as physical objects outside of our skulls. They exist as physical objects inside our skulls in the form of neural correlates and latent representations.

A circle is like a meme. It's compelling because it's so simple (to us anyway). But, try to really explain a mathematical circle to a six year old and especially how it is different from the representation of a circle that you've just drawn. Watch even a smart kid struggle a bit with this, before getting it. It's not as simple as we might think, having mastered the concept. That doesn't mean it has an independent existence in some realm that is not embodied. It just means the concept is hard, then simple due to its abstractness and otherworldly simplicity / power balance.

Just curious, since you mention that you're soon to be in the business of eye exams, do you think at some point your business is going to have to maintain this status quo in order to 'play ball' legislatively during your growth phase? If yes, how do you feel about that? If no, can you explain why you'd be exempt? Are these laws something that articulates with your business model or is this only in adjacent businesses like providing lenses?

D is one of the few mainstream languages today that support Design by Contract (https://dlang.org/spec/contracts.html), and I remember it being a prominent language feature all the way to pre-1.0.

The only other major language I can think of that's still actively used is Ada in its more recent incarnations. Eiffel didn't get much traction, and .NET dropped System.Diagnostics.Contracts recently due to lack of usage. C++ had some proposals that didn't go anywhere, if I remember correctly. Java has some AOP-based third party solutions for it, but nothing is in the core language, nor any plans for it.

Why do you think that is? I don't see what's wrong with DbC conceptually, and having (effectively) formalized specs helps both document the code better, and catch bugs.

I'd have a lot more sympathy for this argument if the Theranos machines were actually capable of doing the tests that they were pretending to run.

I think there's a world of difference between a) simulating a technology that a company really can provide just to ensure that things run smoothly for the test and b) pretending to offer a technology that, in fact, the company couldn't provide at all.

> The accelerators included within PS3’s Cell are the Synergistic Processor Element (SPE). Cell includes eight of them, although one is physically disabled during manufacturing.

This was disabled in software (by syscon) early on in the boot process. Many people "unlocked" theirs without stability issues. My understanding was that it was a yield thing, and definitely not intended for general use ;)

idk if anyone remembers this, but sony was talking about multi display gaming, such as having a status display. There was a prototype that had two hdmi ports and three ethernet - sony claimed it would also be a home server and router at that time. devkits did include two hdmi ports, and i suspect that the two screen claim was something that they made up almost on the spot, but who knows.
