What does a building with 10 emergency exists, lots of individually lockable suites and rooms have to do with guns?

Santa Barbara has strict anti-gun laws already. CA has a lot of anti-gun laws already. The UCSB system has anti gun laws already.

Santa Barbara issues something like 50 permits a DECADE for concealed carry. It's a "may" issue jurisdiction, and they don't issue.

And if metal detectors are implemented, I'm not sure students will care. They already exist for large sporting events and other areas of concern, so if there was a concern you'd want fewer main entrances so you could staff them.

Bigger issue is normally non-students in student housing, so security can be good in terms of setup. This means the newer buildings often do things like keycard access to suites only for suite holders, and some even do keycards for your room separate from suite, again, all logged and tracked. I visited a friend at a school where I had to sign in my car with a guard, had to be escorted to their room by a front desk staffer etc. That's extreme - no way UC is going that (this was a small elite place).

The major student issues in terms of safety are stranger access to dorms / bathrooms at night, theft issues (bikes / bags etc), and nuisance issues (noise, weed smoke, parties etc).
I used Azithromycin for a reason, because until Covid Brand Viral Pneumonia came along, Azithromycin was considered a standard part of the treatment protocol for viral pneumonia just in case. And because of this study, which I suggest reading carefully. [0].

(And it's funny, that the surgisphere study that showed that HCQ didn't work was published straight away, even though the data was fraudulent? And a similar one that showed that ACE inhibitors didn't work too? They both got published in the Lancet straight away, and noone has any questions about _why_ that was done.)

> you won't get the high availability

Debatable.

I've seen a fair amount of outages caused by the extra complexity brought on by making a system distributed for the purposes of high availability.

Hardware is actually quite reliable nowadays, and I'll trust a hardware single-point of failure running a monolithic application more than a distributed microservice-based system with lots of moving parts.

Sure, in theory, the distributed system should win, but in practice, it fails more often (due to operator error or unforeseen bugs) than hardware.
This just in: men and women are biologically different (at the statistical, population level). Shouldn’t affect individual level policy. But any metric of equal outcome is misguided.
Yes, I am waiting for a Toyota EV simply because I trust Toyota’s quality, and I want something with CarPlay without that giant screen Teslas have.

I just would not expect them to waste the 4Runner/Tacoma branding on an experimental product due to the ICE 4Runner/Tacoma’s spectacular reputation as one of the most reliable cars available.
> I always felt like Gattaca was unrealistically pessimistic. I'm unconvinced that the "best possible person" (if you grant such a thing even exists) is that much different from an average person.

To simplify the scenario to a single dimension, imagine how much different the NBA would look like if there were 10,000 Lebron James's and Shaq's being born every year. I'd expect it will take a few generations for sufficient predictive confidence to develop though.
Another thing to check is how nginx was compiled. Using generic optimizations vs. x86_64 can do interesting things on VM's vs bare metal. nginx and haproxy specifically should be compiled generic for VM's. I don't have any links, just my own performance testing in the past.
VR is the next 3D TV. A cumbersome, marginal improvement on something that already works fine.

Even for industrial use, its only cases I've heard about have been to transmit manual labor over a network. There are very limited cases where we need to do that, although I have no doubt that VR will be useful for undersea or outer space welding, or something, with a very skilled operator. Otherwise, the accuracy necessary is going to make the machine (at the endpoint) far more expensive to build and maintain than it is to just send the human.

edit: It'll be good for killbots. They'll be largely autonomous other than Tesla autopilot-style nudges. The work doesn't require a lot of accuracy, and there are still a few social hangups about totally autonomous killing machines that would make an operator in a VR set more acceptable, even if they don't have much to do.

The supposed paradoxical increase of this effect with increasing wealth has been replicated fairly often with the only real opposition I’ve noticed being that sociocultural incentives dominate.

That is, if you aren’t going to starve, the most important thing is what other people think. The closer to starving you get the less important that becomes.

Anyway, that’s the hypothesis explaining the difference. What research out there explores that hypothesis? Otherwise, this seems like just more of the same revealing that there are differences in participation.
Are there any major non Tesla EVs in the US?

I am not into cars, but I can only assume the Lead/Volt/whatever else out there is bad quality or has some other drawback that causes them to basically be non existent on the roads.

Depictions of the Tsar Bomba usually focus on the huge mushroom cloud, which is awesome (in the original "causing awe or terror" meaning of the word). However, I think the geometric simplicity of the fireball is even more effective at inspiring awe.

Rise of the war machines: Charting the evolution of military technologies
Having missed your comment, I was about to post about this. One interesting fact I can add is that Hittite, the oldest written IE language, has the animate/inanimate gender system rather than the 3-way system. You can also see remnants of the old system here and there in Latin, Greek, Sanskrit, Russian, ect.

Of course, this is largely theoretical like you said, and I'm sure you could dig up some dissenting papers if you wanted to.
I'm not sure why you're comparing an very logic driven system like ABS to self-driving ("AI"). ABS follows pretty simple logic, comparing wheel sensors (and in more modern cars, additionally: accelerometers and if the vehicle has stability control, a yaw rate sensor aka gyro.) There's little "fuzzy" or subjective evaluations in ABS, there's no need to "train" it, and so on.

Also, it's a poor example of deskilling, because ABS was designed to do something humans cannot do.

ABS is designed to stop or reduce incidents of uneven-braking-surface induced yaw. Ie, left tire has grip, right tire has less / no grip, which will induce counter-clockwise yaw.

ABS is able to stop a car faster than any human possibly could in cases where there's uneven traction because it allows any wheel with grip to keep braking. Modern ABS systems can outbrake a human; older systems were slow and could be out-braked by a driver trained in threshold braking performing a planned stop.

This is a lot of presumption. I got vaccinated as soon as I could (early spring, for my region, age, and health group), which is well after the actual R&D phase for the vaccine that I received. Every person I know got vaccinated as early as they could, in spite of reservations they had about the former president's reliability. They did that because they (and I) trust their healthcare providers to provide informed guidance more than they trust themselves, regardless of their intellectual capacity. They also did it because it's their civic duty, and also because it's the selfish thing to do.

The rest, I have nothing to say to. I haven't spent any meaningful amount of time mocking (much less thinking) about people who have taken ivermectin, so I don't feel compelled to respond on behalf of the crowd you've identified.

It isn't uncommon and it does raise generally ethical questions. I rescued a VAX 4000/600 and found that it still had the original drives in the main chassis (they aren't obviously in there and the system had an external drive chassis that had been destroyed.) The disks contained the OS and a shipping ledger (it came from a logistics company) of shipments that had come and gone from SFO during it's lifetime. Just from, to, short description of the contents and a tag of 'customs duty' or not.

Given that it was clear the company thought they had destroyed all of the data on the system I went ahead and deleted all of the non-system related files, leaving just the OS and layered products that they had originally installed.

Until we perfect artificial wombs.

I wonder if it would make sense to use a surrogate to gestate the very early stages, and then transfer the fetus to an artificial womb for the later stages. There would probably be many more women willing to do this since it's the later stages of pregnancy and birth that creates the most wear and tear on the body, not to mention emotional trauma with immediately losing the baby you carried.

Hell, even women having their own babies might choose this route if it becomes feasible, like many preemptively choose c-sections now.

The other replies are correct, but the data they've contain is also useful.

In our work, we make use of contexts for logging and tracing. When a request comes in, we updated the context to contain a request ID, any logs we perform in our functions make use of this context to extract that information in order to connect related logs.

Tracing also makes use of these contexts. When you create a new trace, you wrap a context. That context contains the trace parent. That way, any new traces made using that context, will be linked to the parent

But that's the limit. It's just a processing context, not processing data

I'm very confused by this comment, SPIR-V is not a wire protocol for Vulkan. And you can't really serialize Vulkan over the network, that breaks things like vkMapMemory.

> to generation n, ... the world don't work that way anymore

...and that's where we get back to tech. Younger techies tend to act as though none of the hard-won knowledge about how to store/move/act on data, how to write robust software, etc. applies any more. The fact is that some does and some doesn't. Time after time after time, things that we once knew about (for example) network congestion or storage failure modes are ignored or forgotten because "the world don't work that way anymore" then come back to the fore very suddenly and painfully because yes it does. A large part of the reason I retired is that I got tired of over-promoted kids ignoring warnings about things I had lived through once and could see coming again. "I told you so" is no substitute for being allowed to contribute in the first place.

This is just a response to your aside comment (the rest I am on board with).

Even if you just use Web browsers, cheap computers are cheap and not enjoyable to use. A $500 laptop is a steaming pile of crap. Imagine making your well-paid white collar employers use a computer with a bad screen, janky touchpad, and limited performance just because they don't do anything super intense with their machines?

Most work places keep their laptops for several years. Amortizing the cost of that over 2-4 years is not a big deal.

Also, a lot of Web apps and Electron app are ram and performance hogs, so getting a cheap computer doesn't make a ton of sense.

You don't need one of these MacBook Pros for everyone, but a MacBook Air is worth paying for every employee at my work (or an equivalent PC laptop).

For some people who like to use Macs, but need one piece of Windows enterprise software every now and then, they may just go with a Windows machine without bootcamp.

> That's not what M-W says.

M-W is [EDIT: or would be, see below], in that case, simply in error. The OED gets the colloquial use right: “Used to indicate that some (frequently conventional) metaphorical or hyperbolical expression is to be taken in the strongest admissible sense: ‘virtually, as good as’; (also) ‘completely, utterly, absolutely’.”

It also traces it back to at least 1769, which should shut up those people treating it as some new corruption.

EDIT: On actually reading the M-W link, the characterization upthread is false: it doesn't say it means “not literally” but that it is “used in an exaggerated way to emphasize a statement or description that is not literally true or possible”. This seems to just be a poorer wording of the OED take, especially in light of the extended discussion of that usage that is presented below thr definition proper.
