GenZ is probably more likely to be in the commercially balkanized networks like Insta and SnapChat that are next to impossible to fully scrape at scale.

> but if that was true, you'd be better off working at FAANG 99% of the time.

Pretty sure 99% of people actually would be better off working at FAANG, or at least the 99% number isn't far off. FAANG promote quickly so salaries will climb and you'll have millions in the bank by the time a start-up would go public, I doubt many start-ups beats that.

The main reason FAANG employees don't have those millions is that they consume them as they get them rather than invest it and then get all that money at once after 6 years.

All patches have a maintenance cost, different projects have different thresholds for what they will accept and what they won't, that's completely ordinary. Not anything I've seen specific to GNOME or KDE or any other project. You can shop patches around to see if various other people want it but if nobody wants it, then maybe it's a problem with your patch.

Some features I used have been dropped too, I just adjusted my workflow to the new way. It's not hard to do, especially if you are already used to switching desktops.

IMO it is bad form to laugh at developers and hope a project becomes obsolete, I doubt you will win any friends or change any minds that way. It's not personal against you if someone declines to implement a feature.

I'd get assigned homework all through school, but usually would complete it in 5 minutes in class, as did the others. I can't remember ever having to take something home to do.

The teachers hardly ever filled up the class time, so there was always time to just do the homework.

A) but that's not the only goal, sometimes you want to teach them it's important to execute on an assignment for the sake of it. Because that s how you deliver in demanding jobs.

B) yes, happened to me in higher education, fucked an Electrical Engineering work assigment, got a crushing 0, dropped the whole thing, focused on Maths and CS, changed school, and became a programmer. Gave me a kick to never fail an assignment ever again, so not sure what to do if the 0s are so many the kid just doesnt care anymore.

C) The teacher doesnt need to change how to measure I think, he needs to change how they deliver: if they cant reach the level, either they must move out because they never will and that s fine, or they must be handled specially so they reach at a different speed with a different method. I ve seen first hand you can teach hard math fast and burn most or slow and get most super motivated. Grades and exams being the same.
Of course. It's very upfront about being a model/counterexample finder, not a theorem prover. The UI (old Swing thing) also leaves a lot to be desired. But the language itself is lovely expressive, not what you expect from these sorts of told.

> Isn't the article about removing homework in high school?

It seems to be broader-- speaking to school district policies that cross the entire gamut from elementary to high school-- but the focus is on high school. Certainly I'd say the case for removing homework is weakest in high school. (I only teach one HS class, and my homework load there is pretty light, too).

> I assume the "opportunities to improve essays and classwork" is done outside of normal class hours. Perhaps, the work is done at home. And that they addressed your point A by allowing students to resubmit work, and your point B by removing deadlines. I can definitely see how it could be an improvement.

I think these are very difficult things to drive as a policy from the top down. Removing deadlines just encourages students to dig themselves into a different kind of hole: an insurmountable backlog of work that makes doing any of it feel less worthwhile.
There's not a doubt in my mind that China already scans domestically distributed content, otherwise they wouldn't have strong-armed Apple into storing Chinese iCloud data in domestic datacenters. If you really want to put on your tinfoil hat, there's an overwhelming lack of evidence to suggest this isn't happening in America, considering Apple's history of PRISM compliance and inevitable pressure from five-eyes.

I think the coincidence (in time, not necessarily causal direction) of master quality issues and growth in lossy codecs is probably one reason people get confused by this. People are hearing crappy recordings, listening to it on mp3s, and drawing conclusions.

I think measuring this stuff is tricky because there's so many variables involved, from the master, to the compression (or lack thereof), to the amps, speakers, quantifying perception, etc. I agree with you completely but suspect there's a bit more to it.
No, it is not. The hash is computed on the client, but hash comparison happens on the server, using some cryptographic magic that only reveals a “visual derivative” if enough images match. It’s fairly complex and I don’t recall the details, but the library of “bad” hashes is not accessible.
I’d be thinking about Family Sharing for that usecase.

>Intentional false negatives are irrelevant because catching 100% of CSAM was never stated as a goal of the system. And because it's just not realistic to expect to see any real-world use by CSAM aficionados. Anyone savvy enough to understand the principles behind hashing (and trust some command line tool downloaded from Github) is probably smart enough to have better places to store their child porn than an iCloud gallery.

So if the purpose of the system is not to catch persons dealing with CP, what is the purpose? Breaking user's privacy?

We have a history of evil intentions masked by fighting against CP, drugs, money laundry and crime in general.
So there's little question modern receivers are far higher quality, primarily because of digitization and what it's enabled. In particular, the better room correction systems make a dramatic difference, and that's based on research that correctly correlates subjective preference to objective measures.

But the problem is none of this stuff is engineered to last in the same way. Many of the products are taking a base board design from an upstream vendor and only doing the minimal amount of work to give it a unique looking physical and OSD skin. They cheap out on the components they use as much as possible, even the mid tier brands considered to have high build quality. You're lucky if you get a decade out of one now, though admitted part of what's driving that is the assumption that features and interconnect standards are going to keep advancing fast enough that designing for a longer lifespan is pointless.

But it does feel a bit aggravating to throw something out every 10 years or so when you know it's probably just a couple caps or the like that have gone toast, but it's just not feasible to repair these DIY.

When I was a kid I got a hand me down Zenith stereo set from my grandmother. I'm sure the materials in the speaker drivers had degraded somewhat, but it still worked as perfectly as the day it was sold decades earlier.

Thanks for posting this. A lot to reflect on here. I'm a cis white male and while I can't relate to everything said here I definitely feel the "you're a cis white male so shut up and listen" frustration. I'm married to a black woman and speak out often on pro black (and all minorities) and pro women issues. And it really fucking sucks being told to shut up and sit down by those communities and being treated like the enemy. I understand why they feel that way. It just sucks. But I tell myself that it sucks even worse for them and what they have to experience and I love them and continue to fight for them because I know it's right. But it's hard.

But this isn't about me and what I go through. I'm just saying I get what this author is saying. And it really sucks. I hope that one day she is able to come out of the closet. Maybe she won't.

And until the world is more ready and accepting of people like her, I will start speaking out on things like this for people like her who feel they can't safely do so.

Also as a male feminist ally who doesn't really read women/queer/poc authors (I don't read too many books period) I really need to start doing so more.

I am not making an argument against renewables. I am saying that the math does not support the idea of making a 100% transition to electric vehicles using just renewables for energy. Nuclear is the only way to get the bulk of what we need without making a mess of things.

You have to consider all the variables that would be affected when you start talking about solar at such massive scales. For example, if I understood you correctly, you are suggesting pumping water to altitude using solar power and then using that potential energy to spin turbines on the way down.

OK, great, sure, Physics 101 problem. Theoretically, yeah, that would work. In practice, you would cause such devastation to the ecosystem doing something like that --again, at scale, not a small lab experiment-- that the entire concept is turned on its head.

The mining and all other things required to make batteries at such massive scales isn't something anyone would want to be around, much else highlight as "green".

BTW, I want electric vehicles. I really do. However, we need to figure out how to do it without hiding a stinking rotten ecological mess somewhere in China so we can feel great about our little "green" electric car on the driveway in Los Angeles.

It's almost like the issue of child labor in China and other places. It's OK so long as our t-shirts are nice quality and cheap? Of course not. Well, the same should apply to the realities of solar and electric vehicles.

Right now my perspective is that we'd be swapping one rotten mess for another. Solar panels and batteries would have to be replaced in massive quantities every 10, 15, 20 years, depending on who you want to believe. At scale, that's billions of, well, everything to trash. Even if we recycle, again, at scale, not a pretty sight.

I don't have all the answers. I probably don't have any answer. I just know that there's a lot of hand-wavy, feel-good, save-the-planet stuff floating around and nobody seems interested in doing the math. It's far easier to convinced the unthinking masses that "green is better" and we need to "save the planet" than to put-up a few slides in a presentation and discuss the reality of having to adopt nuclear power with gusto if we want any of those things to become realities.

In other words, the politicians who have been anti-nuclear can't bring themselves to now be pro-nuclear because that would mean losing votes. Which means we don't do the right thing because politicians want to keep their jobs, not because there are viable alternatives.

Remember that this thread started with an article about China building 150 reactors. Why are they doing that? Because nuclear power, done correctly, is the best option for constant, reliable, consistent and long term energy. If you do that math, including total cost of ownership, this is pretty much indisputable.

Not really? Class 1 and 2 ebikes in the US top out at 20 mph. Ebikes in Europe usually top out at 25 km/h (15.5 mph). Even 20 mph is achievable by a moderately fit person on a road bike for a sustained period of time.

This is only likely to be effective to the extent that you have extensive support at home and that grades are highly valued by the student.

Higher education is a far different game than primary or secondary school.

My students tend to complete their work. If I was in a position where I had a lot of not-turned-in assignments, I'd probably look at giving students 2/3rds credit for those parts of the assignment that they'd shown mastery of in some other way (in class or on tests). It's still at best a D, and most likely an F, but it does not pull down the average nearly so much.

> C) The teacher doesnt need to change how to measure I think,

I don't fully understand your comment, but-- what I'm saying is: grades are not a great motivator for most students. We treat them like they are necessary to get hard work from students, but I think teachers who get strong performances from students mostly get them in other ways.

I feel like if I'm relying upon a student's fear of a bad grade as a motivator, that I've already lost.
