> Yes private schools might run better. Shockingly richer and generally two parent families are going to have children that been primed to respect learning and have less trauma so much easier to deal with. Public schools teachers don’t have this luxury.

Exactly. OP acts as if it's such a great surprise they're run better. Obviously they would be, because they can pick and choose who they take and usually only get those kids who's families are well off enough to afford it; those kids already all have huge advantages when it comes to learning. It's exactly why the voucher system would do no good either -- it'd just make the public school worse as the private schools take those kids who are already borderline on affording it.

Just anecdotally Signal seems to be far less reliable when delivering messages and I've had a few crashes with the Android app.

The way I use booking.com: Search for a suitable hotel or apartment and find their name. Then search for them independently and make the reservation directly. I mean: they have a great search interface and all, but I refuse to funnel money to gatekeepers whenever I can... Stories like this just affirm my suspicions about companies like them...

Sure it's not sufficient to formally prove security of the system e2e, but i'd guess it's sufficient for the average user. As for shipping a client with broken encryption... Aren't people using Signal (like the person I originally responded to suggested) at risk of the same thing? Nobody's verifying checksums on every update except for people who aren't using WhatsApp for their comms anyway.

This article is on point. Been through seed and A series in the last ~2 years. The metrics (CAC, LTV) are interesting but do not mean a lot yet. Having customers that live you (make them part of your pitch deck) and seeing great adoption are key though.
This seems like an odd thing to target. I haven't found dislikes to be problematic in the context of YouTube videos: in fact they're usually an indicator of something in the content itself (I've only ever seen high dislikes either on videos that were themselves problematic or harmful, or on unpopular corporate announcements).

For "creators" on YouTube the real problems seem to come from the contents of comments.

This[0] recent video rant has some interesting insights toward the end of the video where other popular YouTubers are interviewed on how negative comments impacted them. What I found thought provoking was how much of a negative impact some particular types of comments that seemed in good intent-e.g. commenters stating their preference for a previous video format "I preferred when you ___". Feels like Google/social media sites could do something around sentiment heuristics; I know Twitter has started some stuff like this.

Sweat. I do 2km twice a day for the school run in my unassisted mtb. On anything but a cold day, I work up a mild sweat. I wouldn't want to arrive at work in the state I get back in on a warm day.

Many commuters don't want to get "proper exercise" on the way to work. Hard enough getting secure bike storage, let alone a shower.
This is exactly my experience and I also have a YouTube premium account. I use YouTube religiously and have my own system of improving the algorithm so that the vast majority of content recommended is something I might watch.

If I don't like a video, I hit dislike and will maybe even remove it from my watch history.

I suspect that most who are against this change are not heavy YouTube users.

As a teacher, I can name at least 50 that are uninterested in excelling. Mostly because they've been conditioned to be that way, usually by parents/community who see no value in education. You can work with them and get them interested, but it takes a lot to undo that conditioning (along with all the other stuff they've endured through their education years of being told "Well, you're just not an X person", etc.). It's also really hard to work with them and get them over that given the current way things are (seeing 150+ kids an hour a day).

> The key question is how to find transcendental numbers.

That's indeed difficult and ad-hoc, particularly considering that you'd need to derive them from the shared private key rather than finding any one in a large family.

Typically, pseudo-OTP schemes use a plain old pseudorandom number generator that "inflates" a large but finite secret key to an approximationof a true OTP.

Using transcendental numbers for that is complicated and inefficient; what advantage over conventional technology do you expect?
I'm sure you are aware, but theory you are repeating is due to Lenin which he invented as a means to explain why capitalism was working so well and wasn't collapsing like Marx had claimed it would. There has never been even the slightest shred of evidence for it and every bit of historical evidence shows pretty clearly that wealth transfer has always gone the other way - from first world to third world - with a few famous exception such as Belgium.

The paper item "a cheque" is called "a check" in the US -- which presumably happened because "a cheque" has something to do with the verb "to check" (as in, "to check the health of"; to verify the status of something by asking/seeing it").

When you check-in to a hotel you aren't "handing over a cheque", you are checking-in with the reception. Ie., you are speaking to reception and checking your reservation/room.

To "check in with someone" is to have a chat or talk to a person to "check" how they are.

> Back to public schools. If I look at the international comparisons, American public education burns through a lot of money for mediocre results. This is your money; you should be more critical. Why isn't there any Silicon Valley for education?

Because, the fundamental issue with education isn't the quality of teachers. It's the home lives of the students. That's why there's such a big disparity in public education in the States. Until we fix the cultural and social issues, schools will continue to be at the level they are. If we want to fix education, we need to fix the underlying problems that cause some kids to not do well. And it's generally not the teachers (yes, there are bad teachers; but socioeconomic factors of the kids have much more impact)

How Do People Extract Phone Numbers from Websites?
Sure, people make mistakes and create bugs and security holes in every language. And some languages like PHP attract newbies who know no other language. And other languages like Perl 5 are so syntactically complex that they repel newbies.

But how many schools and classes and youtube videos teach JavaScript? And how many teach Perl?

The fact that there are a lot of bad JavaScript programmers isn't a symptom of JavaScript programmers being bad. It's a symptom of there being a lot of JavaScript programmers. There are also a lot of really excellent JavaScript and TypeScript programmers, just not as many as bad ones.

(But I bet there are more good JavaScript/TypeScript programmers than all Perl 5 programmers plus all Raku programmers (counting everyone who knows both twice), by far.)

To make a gross understatement, TypeScript's evolution from JavaScript didn't take as long, went smoother, wasn't as incompatible, and was more interoperable, successful, and popular than Raku's evolution from Perl 5.

Not to mention it's much easier for a JavaScript programmer to learn TypeScript, and to upgrade JavaScript code to TypeScript code, than moving from Perl 5 to Raku.

(And I also bet BooKing.com isn't upgrading from Perl 5 to Raku any time soon.)

There are more great JavaScript and TypeScript programmers available to hire than mediocre Perl 5 programmers, because Perl 5 is effectively a dead language, while JavaScript and TypeScript are both ubiquitous, thriving, widely taught languages.

JavaScript shops (and also Python and C# and Java shops) actually have the option of not hiring the bad programmers and intelligence agency plants, and hiring lots of the good programmers.

PS: BooKing.com could easily be confused with the evil "King Boo", Luigi's antagonistic arch-nemesis, and scheming ally of Bowser! Why doesn't Nintendo send them a cease and desist for acting so villainous, and seise their rightful domain in the name of King Boo? ;)

https://www.mariowiki.com/King_Boo

>King Boo is the leader of the Boos and ghosts, ruler of the Paranormal Dimension, the main antagonist of the Luigi's Mansion series, and the arch-nemesis of Luigi. He is also an ally of Bowser, who has aided him in his various schemes. He is more than capable of devising and enacting villainous plans by himself, including his capture and imprisonment of Mario. Although not the biggest Boo, King Boo has abilities that far surpass that of the average ghost; he wields a number of impressive magical abilities, including the ability to materialize objects. King Boo's magical power is directly proportional to the number of Boos in his vicinity.

Only if they piss off the wrong "well-connected" billionaire. Otherwise, nah, never ever going to happen.
Hyperinflation (or even “a little bit to high” inflation) would literally destroy billions of financial assets (public and private debt), given the enormous political power of the finance industry, it's not going to happen.

Also, there is exactly zero historical instance of hyperinflation caused by public debt labelled in a country's own currency. Zero.

There's little rational reasons to believe public debt will cause hyperinflation, and as I mentioned above there are in fact powerful effect acting in the opposite direction.

The only reason people make the link between those two is that hyperinflation is the canonical example of an economic catastrophe and because people believe debt to be immoral, it must lead to a catastrophe in the end. This is a religious/moral discourse, which has no link with the actual world.

And to conclude, keep in mind that high level of public debt is a political decision (borrow from the wealthy instead of taxing them) it would be quite straightforward to fix (with the 60s income tax level) but it's in the interest of no-one with a bit of political power.
I find it really interesting how idioms survive, even if the language around them changes. In Dutch it's "Morgenstond heeft goud in de mond" which is in incredibly close to German and Norwegian, and also the only place you would realistically find the word "Morgenstond" as it has fallen completely out of use.

Private schools would make things worse, honestly, unless they were banned from refusing to accept students. You'd have the "good" ones only accepting the good students, or the students with stable home backgrounds, and they'd excel. Then you'd have the "bad" ones with all the other students, and it'd be as bad or worse than what we have now, except the parents have to pay even more to send their kids there.
Long ago I helped coach some kids' baseball teams. There I got a notion why 60% is or was the minimum passing grade in schools: if you give a kid a task he can perform about 2/3 of the time, it may engage him and he may get better at it. If you give a kid he can perform half or less of the time, you will get a frustrated, then bored and put-upon kid.

Moving a kid who has not mastered basic material into a class that aims to build on it? That seems to me a formula for frustration.
The pictures aren't secret. The hashes are. We don't know what hash algorithm is employed on Apple's server side, so we can't feed that algorithm with these non-secret images and get the hashes.
Definitely in the same space but a very different approach. It is locked into digest emails, whereas right now FeedMail doesn't support digests at all.

Personally I prefer getting items separate. It is much better for longer-form content (which is most of my feeds) as I can read items one-by-one and mark them as read, forward them or filter them individually.

I know that everyone is different, and I may add digest support eventually (but it is far down the list to be honest) so I'm glad that both services can exist.
The article you cited ends with the victory of the Khmer Rouge in 1975. It deals with the events before the Khmer Rouge rule of terror, which lasted until 1979.

In terms of support, it seems you can even quote Kissinger on it:

"The Thais and the Chinese did not want a Vietnamese-dominated Indochina. We didn't want the Vietnamese to dominate. I don't believe we did anything for Pol Pot. But I suspect we closed our eyes when some others did something for Pol Pot." (Edit, others meaning China in the context) [0]

It doesn't. Why not advocate for the removal of settlements then? Do you advocate for China's destruction because they put settlements in Tibet?
The settlements were a grave error imo, Israel already proved it can and will dismantle them (Gaza). It's up for the Palestinian Authority to become a partner in peace instead of advocating for the right of return. That's what this conflict is all about.

Small technical innovations have won wars in the past. In the first Punic war the Roman Republic (who had no significant naval strength at the start of the war) defeated Carthage, the dominant naval force of the Mediterranean. One of the most significant factors in their victory (they certainly would have lost without it at least) was inventing a plank with a spike on the end of it[0].

The Romans at this time were so incompetent at naval warfare that their only significant defeats in the war were losing their entire fleet to bad weather (more than once).

Dams don’t release CO2, they can produce trivial amounts of methane but that breaks down fairly rapidly in the atmosphere. It’s only when vast amounts of methane are released at the same time or the source is continuous that methane is an issue.

In terms of fish, large dams are needed for flood control and water. But rivers and streams often have huge numbers of small dams that are equally problematic and far less useful.
This is the issue. At least in the States, even if a lot of parents want to encourage their kids and be involved in their education they can't because they're too busy just trying to survive. And then you have the kids who couldn't give two shits about school when they gotta get straight to work in order to help make the money to help keep their families fed. If we want to fix schools, we need to fix the underlying social issues.
