Math is one of the pure foundations for liberal arts so getting it done early is better. We should be focusing on getting high schools teaching it so well that colleges don't feel the need to rerun it not saying you can do it later. High school grads should be able to pass the AP Calc and AP Stats exams to the level colleges feel they can totally ditch the 100 level courses for those subjects.

If you don't have students repeating basic math (and chemistry) in college, they can do deeper on an elective track involving a STEM because because their STEM credit hours aren't spent getting a rerun of Calc I.
Don't hardcode integers either if you can help it.
If a woman hops into a driverless car and tells it to take her to someplace safe the driverless vehicle just goes there. It doesn't mistake her levels of fear for intoxication and impairment and refuse to start, allowing someone to break the window, drag her out of the vehicle and rape and murder her.

An actual FSD vehicle won't care if you're drunk because it is the one that is driving. That's the right way to solve the problem.

And yeah there's is a middle-ground where you're having to get into an argument with an algorithm to get what you really want out of it.

I'm not really sure how that is relevant. Both diseases are transmissible and deadly enough to completely overwhelm our hospitals for months at a time. Covid isn't just a random cold or flu. It is destroying our healthcare system, and the only way it will stop is with herd immunity.

We are closing in on 780,000 total deaths from Covid in the US. More than a quarter of those were working age adults two years ago.
I came through the American system, in the 1990s, in a rural place. At grades:

12: Calculus-based Physics
If you're well off and the parents are not going to move until dead, then you can do a few things.

Some renovations to the house including a lift might work. You probably want to look for replacements to the bathroom shower / tub (think walk in tub). Its amazing how much a bench in the tub/shower helps. Putting in some pull down cabinets in the kitchen would be good. Basically, look for spaces that are becoming inaccessible and fix what you can.

At some point some service that does visits (nurse) is going to become a need if you cannot make it over there. Also, a security system with the elder care options is good. A mirror or similar exercise system (particularly with some competitive features) might be a good purchase.

> This is first of all so condescending

It's not condescending.

Many people have spent years neglecting their home life and personal life in favor of work life.

People have been actively encouraged by employers to do this. But at the end of the day for some people pandemic was a blessing and others it was a curse and for most this distinction rests on how much energy people spend prior to the pandemic maintaining their non-office life.

Office life will never return to the way it was pre-pandemic. Absolutely for some people this situation sucks, but it isn't going to resolve itself. I've seen countless people in HN comments like this effectively waiting for things to go back to the way there were: they won't.

Things will change, and they will improve but if you're waiting for a return to feel good again, you will never feel good again. If you want to stop feeling bad, you need to actively start figuring out new possible ways to feel better.

Working on building relationships with friends, neighbors, members of your local community is a good place to start.

When I catch an infection I tend to get pneumonia afterwards and I am sick for months. I already had a predilection for working from home because too many people who are sick insist on coming to the office despite what their company guidance says and even their managers telling them otherwise. WTH is up with that?

Now that there's a small chance that this could kill me, I have zero inclination to return to the office whereas I used to go to the office quite a bit during the summer when people weren't usually sick and avoid it during the winter months especially around the holidays. You asked.

Put it another way. I offer you a job for a $1M salary but there's one catch: every year I drag out the least productive employee (100% according to me) and publicly execute that person in front of everyone else. Would you take that job?
I'm on 200mg of magnesium taurate. Magnesium l-threonate years ago when the hype for it started. Absolutely no difference in anything. Also taking l-theanine + apigenin (mix that Andrew Huberman recommends) - same effect. But for people with not-the-best diet magnesium is definitely beneficial for health so it's good to take it anyway.

This is, I believe, the fundamental problem. Administrators, and, to some degree, math teachers themselves, don’t like or understand math. They constantly talk about what it’s “for”, as if math class serves a purpose similar to car repair shop class. They seem to understand that you can have an English class treating poetry, or a history class, without needing to justify them with practical applications. I think most of this bunch have no concept of studying math for its own sake, and the idea that you might do so for enjoyment would probably seem incomprehensibly bizarre. During my brief stints teaching math in high schools, my attitude was that I was guiding students along the path to becoming people—members of their civilization.
> Math is a problem for middle school teachers because they often don't understand algebra,

Thank you for saying this. I am/was a high school math teacher and this was always the biggest problem when we got students in. The teachers at lower levels just don't understand it well enough to teach it. And, sadly, the same can even be said to be true for some of my coworkers. Our calculus teacher hasn't retired yet because there's nobody she trusts enough in the math department to understand pre-cal/calculus well enough to teach it (I'm on a leave of absence and have switched to the science department, though I've been asked by her and admin to teach those if I return).

To me, common core math makes perfect sense. It's how I do math in my head. But it's also because I feel like I understand math. If I'm subtracting 26 from something, I'm going to subtract 30 and add back 4. It's just quicker and simpler. That's what I've seen parents struggling with, and even teachers struggle with it too! Because they don't get how numbers work. It's really frustrating and harms the kids. I wish I could overhaul how elementary school teachers are trained as in my state they're not even required to do well in math, or take any upper level math courses, before teaching math.
Blatant rip-off of https://www.vim.so beware
You have to be careful with readability in code review: you can't please everyone.

There's nothing more demotivating than spending 8 hours on a problem, feeling good about your solution, and then having some "senior" developer come along and tell you to rewrite it "for readability."

My best defence for this is to have a guiding philosophy or design guide beyond the usual linting rules and code formatting tools. It prevents unnecessary stylistic changes.

A good guide will centre itself around the intersection of the IC's values and the requirements of the system. If you're working on a game engine you might value performance and tend to prefer vectorized code over branching code in order to exploit parallelism as much as possible in the pipeline. Whatever your team values the most is what should go in there and it should be as clear as can be so that people can reference it when giving suggestions in reviews.

Again, sarcasm.

Patek Phillipe is 180 years old. “Normal” people used to need mechanical watches to get to work on time until 40 years ago.

Anyway, luxury goods don't have to justify themselves (at all) solely on their technological transfer. They are, PP in particular as opposed to mass produced Rolexes, works of human excellence.

There is nothing immoral in a watch that took a year of human hours to build that isn't immoral about Japanese artisanal charcoal.

I'm not attacking NATO. I'm saying the U.S is subsidizing Europe's defense in the trillions (if we count since WW2 end). It could be beneficial to the U.S, or not. I'm only saying U.S aid to Israel is not unique and is peanuts compared to the NATO subsidy. People here like saying they are super focused on Israel because of the 3 billion annual subsidy the U.S gives to Israel. I call bullshit on that.
I think we're similar. I know one person who goes in semi-regularly. It's good if you want the separation or just don't have a good working situation at home. It doesn't really help people who want the social environment of an office though as very few are going in.

Hey - can you please not post like this? I realize that the topic is an emotional one and am sure you have good reasons for it, but it's against the site guidelines because of the effect it tends to have on discussion. Note especially this guideline:

"Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith."

https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

Usually when people react like that to a comment, it's because they have some important experience of their own that doesn't match with what the comment is describing. In that case a good way to respond is to share the relevant parts of your own experience, so the rest of us can have access to both. This is the best way for us to learn (which is why we're here) - and it also helps us learn at a meta level, that life is big and we need enough space to hear about all experiences.
The Apple Watch’s Straps Are More Than Just a Finishing Touch
Whether or not it's happening now, doesn't preclude opposition to policy choices that actively accelerate the process.

People with money and wherewithal are always going to have alternative options available to them, such as private education or moving to expensive neighborhoods with strong schools. The problem is when public school policy results in actual degradation of education for everyone else.

No, she wasn't sentenced, nor even charged with a crime. Yet she was still told to pack her bags, get in a van to be driven to an unfamiliar place, and then was not permitted to leave until the authorities said so. That's about as straightforward a violation of rights and dignity as it can get. So what if she lied about taking a test? As if that justifies even 1% of it?

> minority students aren’t smart enough

Well, that's not quite what they're saying - essentially what they're saying is that they're a different kind of smart. Not that I agree with the logic, but essentially what they're saying is that the tests - along with the whole curriculum - were designed and written by white people, so they're unintentionally biased in a way that non-white people (except, I guess, asians) can't understand them. The implication being, of course, that if black people had designed the entire curriculum and the tests, they would be similarly impenetrable to white people. Of course, I don't think that makes much sense either, but that is the essence of what they're trying to assert.
When you get evaluated during performance reviews, do your 20% time projects count? If not, it seems like you are just doing a side project in your free time but giving any IP that results to Google.

Many of the kernel issues exploited in iOS are caused indirectly by its microkernel architecture, namely, the use of "ports" for kernel to kernel and kernel to user land IPC. For example: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=21... .

Microkernel vs monolithic kernel has little to do with this, IMO. The main issues are asynchronous complexity and memory safety.

Also, a lot of your most sensitive data lives in userland. If someone gets access to the iMessage sandbox and the message database files, that's your most sensitive and privileged data gone, no kernel touched.
>How would you delete a paragraph in vim? I reckon something like ...

`dip` will delete all contiguous lines (ie: lines between blanks)
`cip` will change in paragraph, (delete text and then put you in insert mode)

Here's another one: if the cursor is in the middle of a line, and you want to delete the rest of the line to change it, do you click and drag the mouse? Our do you hold shift, press down, backspace, and then press up again to get back to where you were?

I just press `C`

The vim "every key is a command" mode is called `normal` for a reason
> older generation got married at 19 and had stable families

Have you looked at divorce rates lately? Rates of child abuse, addiction, suicide? Seems to me that many of those families are not so stable or - even more importantly - functional. Also, if you look at how many of those formerly young parents in my generation and before have conducted themselves since their nests emptied, the picture's even grimmer. I suspect that they - and the rest of us - would be better off if they'd had children to help guide them into modernity in their later working years. Winding down any connection to the younger generation - and through them to changes in technology or society - at barely 40 doesn't seem to lead to a healthy 60, 70, or 80. The appeal to tradition fails.

For quite a while I thought I'd never be great at math because I struggled with geometry. Fortunately, I ignored that voice in my head and went on to do lots of advanced math (analysis, abstract algebra, computational methods), ranking in the top 10% of Polya, etc.

I still suck at geometry.

Geometry is a really poor representation of whether one can do proof based maths.
Presumably the full accusation is "Entity ABC used NSO tools for XYZ". So the reaction was to cancel ABC's account while NSO investigates whether ABC actually did use the tools for XYZ, or whether ABC was only using them for other (approved) purposes.

Which basically says that openly challenging:

- the exact number of 6M victims.

- the singularity of this event.

- that this event is incomparable to any other historical event

Is a crime.

Given that the number of victims is an estimate and might even be higher and also there were events in history like china's cultural revolution, Stalin's great cleansing and the killing fields in Cambodia (to name a few) that law does not sound to be that reasonable as it might sound initially
