The Complete Scrumm Collection V2
I'm with the other reply, genuinely curious what was submitted for review. I'm glad you were prevented from starting a study without the fundamentals in place.

I've been on the IRB submission side for Iowa State, and I can tell you it was a rigurous process, though the training emphasized why things are the way they are.

If participants are concerned about their results becoming deanonymized, the basic trust we have that there will not be negative ramifications for the participant and that participants will be genuine in their responses and participation go out the window. That's a fundamental aspect of conducting good research that is valid and as broadly applicable as possible.

Deanonymized results may not seem like a big deal, however we have to also consider future impacts on the participant. What if discrimination based on that test result was permissible and they couldn't find a job? What if later analysis shows conclusions we couldn't imagine right now that would hurt the participant? What if your boss found out you were participating in a drug trial for PrEP, outing you as likely gay? What if social norms change and new standards are applied to old data?

I'm also curious about the expensive software they were wanting. The standards shift over time, but in my experience we might have a paper key for participants to participant number until _x_ months after the study is completed, at which time it would be destroyed. The key would probably only exist on paper and would be stored separately from the data, behind a separate differently keyed locks (or encrypted separately if electronic). All of this would be explicitly defined in the documents provided to the IRB.

For surveys, Qualtrics was an approved vendor, so we would often try to do all data collection in Qualtrics.
there are some differences so the prices can't be taken at face value. For example, Sling stopped providing NBC regional sports networks I use to watch the San Jose Sharks. I had to switch to Youtube TV. These regional channels are super value as there is no way to get them through other direct streaming services. ESPN+ will do regional blackouts for example if you are local region is broadcasting the games.

I will also say Youtube TV is not the "Exact same thing" that the cable company offers. Fundamentally the product/channels are, but youtube TV gets all the tech right.
I think a lot of people may use aliases invoked by a single letter. They’re very specific to each persons workflow, habits, etc.
I think there should be new legislation to prevent such targeted nuisance takedowns, in a similar way to nuisance lawsuits.
That just sounds like a fixed version, I presume to continue the study, where the researcher is transparent about their identity and intention.
Makes sense. I only ask because Z80 and GB are similar
Latest trials confirm the benefits of MDMA (Ecstasy) in Treating PTSD
I'm not conflating the two. I said explicitly I don't have any basis to judge.
I think you are exactly right and it's sad that you are getting downvoted for this. The "bright" side for coders unwilling to learn new things is that there is lots of legacy C code to maintain to last a lifetime. It's still a bit sad since Rust is just lots of fun to work with.

Can you unpack this sentence for me?

> Also regardless of what you think of him being correct or not saying things like "Islam is the greatest force for evil in the world today" is insanely out of touch with reality

So even if it is true, it is out of touch with reality to state it? Is this really what you meant to say?
I was just reading an article earlier today on the same subject. I thought the "pedagogy" section was interesting when considering if `mut` is the right term to be using for exclusive references.

That is far from addressing the issue. They are putting 4% of liability down. That won’t even keep up with current inflation and like your article states will still take 25-30 years. Critics in the same article don’t believe their assessment is correct and that the cost will be much higher and as with every project the costs are always much higher. If market crashes where will they come up with the other 96%? This is all based on best case scenario. Also stated in the article only if no new wells are created in the mean time will this take 25-30 years. If the problem was addressed it would not be a 30 year problem.
The logic why I thought so is simple: I'd read Aristotle views on physics initially (complete garbage) and assumed if one part (that I can easily verify) is garbage, then other parts (that are not so easily verifiable) are likely to be garbage too.

If I see something wrong published on the topic that I know well, I assume that the quality of the content from the same source is not any better for the topics I don't know.

It is a good general principle but the heuristics/shortcut doesn't work sometimes.
They did the same for Windows 95: developers were given 386s with 4 MB of RAM to test on, because that was the minimum requirement for Windows 95.

And in the end, it ran -- just about -- on those specs.
There is a logic error in this email. If this is not a request they cannot claim 45 days to response. So refernce to CCPA 1798.130 was clearly just to scary.

> was designed by people who intended never to write any code in the language

That's false. All of the original developers started writing side projects in Go extremely early on and all of them still write tons of Go including on their side projects. They don't have their ego tied up in their choice of programming language.

Indeed. Deadlines only mattered in my life when in university and before. I can't say that I have had to deal with a genuine deadline in nearly three years now.

My first exposure to this was during my first serious internship. On my first day, I was in a meeting of a dozen large banks and everyone was supposed to have completed a task so that we could move on. My bank had not completed the task, so I was expecting a lecture from the others in the group.

Maybe two companies had done it. The rest were split between halfway done and "oh, that was for today?"

In my life as a dev, work that runs over just gets shipped in the next sprint. That feature you have needs a tad more work? Move it from sprint 7 to 8.

> Memory safety guarantees that don't go out the window if you ever need to free a dynamic allocation, for starters.

Lots of people like to repeat this without understanding all of the other controls that Ada has for access types (pointers).

Ada access types (like pointers) are typed so you could make multiple equivalents of `Foo` that can't be mixed and matched. e.g. one version of `Foo` might be for one subsystem and another version of `Foo* for a different subsystem, which would prevent you from giving an allocated object from one system to another. You also can't point an access to any arbitrary location without it being specifically marked with `all`, and there's limitations to how you can use an access that gets passed as a parameter. Due to these factors, how allocations can be used gets constrained and with Ada's support for RAII ("controlled types"), these details usually get hidden internally within types. It's not a specific block section like `unsafe`, but your unsafe memory usage is helped by the type system.
I had similar thoughts when I read this story: how messed up is the legal climate in the US if a person who knows for sure they did absolutely nothing wrong should be scared by obvious nonsense email instead of laughing it off and deleting it? I don't diminish the ethical breach the researchers committed - they clearly shouldn't be inflicting any amount of mental anguish on people that did not agree to be part of any study. But it's not the only - and not the largest - problem here. The climate where this thing is seriously scary to so many people is really messed up.

Lesson learned. Never buy closed source.

Imagine the vulnerability would have been in the vendor code instead of in the log4j jar. You’d. still need a way to fix and rebuild it.

Note that this doesn’t have to mean a public MIT repo on GitHub. You can have more restrictive gray box licenses between your b2b partners only.

Random point or two? As an American I think it was usually worth most of the points for the math I did...

But this is still aiming for 100%. Being challenged is dangerous to your grade.
If Damore had instead offered his opinion that Google lacked diversity because of white-supremacist patriarchy, Donald Trump, and rapey tech bros, somehow I doubt that you would have conjured this list of excuses to pathologize him for voicing his opinion and provoking a mob to demand that he be deprived of his livelihood. No, you probably would have described the backlash as an atrocity being inflicted on a courageous voice for denouncing social injustice. This is a splendid example of a selective demand for rigor. In order to share an opinion, you apparently have to “do a substantive sociological investigation”—do you think the other parties in the same conversation were performing field studies and submitting their master’s thesis? You blame him for “not starting a discussion”—even though he had written what he did as a contribution to an ongoing discussion. You blame for having any certitude in his own opinion—I’m sure the mob baying for his head just really disliked fanaticism. Oh, he was supposed to recruit co-authors—this is an absurd demand that goes far beyond even what is expected of academic papers, which do have sole authors.

This is how ideologically dominant positions always shore up their hegemony. Every time an enemy of theirs fails to dot every I and cross every T, you can be sure that the regime will magnify their missteps all out of proportion and invent procedures that they failed to follow in order to justify whatever act of savage repression is visited on them.

>much of the core issue of equity is having people with one perspective answering important questions for people with a different perspective.

Again, remind me which “perspective” was calling for the other side to be rendered unemployable?
Small correction: while it’s true that the client<->server exchange is secure, this doesn’t matter because ANY client can request a certificate for any DNS address. It is no extra security, because an attacker can just submit their own request for the same domain from a different client that they control. It only needs to be secure to prevent MITMing the token.

The key to LE security is to check the record from a bunch of servers with diverse paths to the nameserver, so that any particular intermediate ISP cannot spoof the DNS/TCP to all of them. Ideally these paths would be direct, but that’s not feasible, since the requesting server could theoretically be hosted anywhere.

I guess they are also more likely to implement the recommended DNS security extensions than a (likely) out-of-date resolver in a consumer router.

I enjoy Tailscale, but their split-DNS approach for letsencrypt is a huge turn off. There's no need for my network topology to be exposed via certificate transparency logs.
The thinner it is and the larger it is, the easiest it is for the phone to slip from your hands and the screen to break.

An Education While Incarcerated
Agreed. At a certain point thinking about garbage collection becomes more burdensome than just handling allocation explicitly.
The "dependencies" can be written off quickly as the "complaints" about them are ridiculous.
'Fools Self Driving' sounds better to describe this since it is a deceptive product package that has fooled many Tesla customers thinking that 'it works' when it in fact it put their lives and other drivers at risk when it decides to crash into another car or confuses the moon with the yellow traffic light.

Now they are not happy with Tesla not honouring the original reservation price for an upcoming product variant that was recently discontinued and when they upgrade their order, they now have to pay more for FSD. [0]

Which by the testimonials; I guess you might as well call it a scam, but they will buy it anyway. I have to give it to the Tesla CEO, who is very clever at scamming their customers over and over again.

Lunar (https://lunar.fyi) supports up to 3 hotkeys to switch input using DDC.

Also the functionality is completely free, the Pro license isn’t needed if you only switch inputs and occasionally adjust brightness or volume.

This might be a more comfortable solution if your monitor allows input switching through DDC.

I read all these posts on Rust and it makes me wonder if I'm being stupid spending time on C++? I want a language that I can focus on for the foreseeable part of my career. I'm looking for stability and am interested in domains like finance and robotics. My key wants are that I can deep dive a language for as long as possible, as I'm burning out from constantly changing languages after ~8 years. I need some sort of external validation before I jump on five different things and fail lol.
MIT Researchers Just Discovered an AI Mimicking the Brain on Its Own
Stability is an important thing. The fact that 30 year old scripts still work, and still can be run, is a testament to the staying power of the underlying technology. That staying power generally means some reduction in cognitive load: I can use the same semantics, principles, and idioms on my phone, laptop, and computer.

That's good.

That's powerful. Contrast that with the JavaScript framework du jour: React today, React with new shiny hooks tomorrow; Svelte a week ago and a week from now; while the boss just told you in an email that the meeting an hour from now regards porting everything to Vue. That's the kind of cognitive load that we're thankfully spared by long-lasting technology.

Now consider PowerShell. It is not an open standard. It is not an open technology. Its steward is Microsoft, of "Embrace, Extend, Extinguish" fame. It bucks against the long-established norm, so that all the established idioms are useless, while its semantics are just as tedious.

Why, therefore, should I bother putting pilot time into this proprietary flying rug whose engine is more-likely-than-not a cracked bottle of Microsoft semen?

As to whether PowerShell has anything to teach us about shell engineering: meh. It's not as good as Bash at doing Bash-like things and it's not as good as scripting languages at doing scripting things.

EDIT: I figured I'd look to see whether PowerShell is open. Surprisingly, it is! With an MIT license to boot. However, as expected with any Microscum code, it includes telemetry out-of-the-box.

As a matter of principle: I don't like it, I don't trust it, I don't want it. The semantics are ugly and it stinks of Microsoft.
It's frustrating that this is so easy to do in one click using the browser's in-built developer tools, and yet no dev team spends their time on it (or even know that it exists).
CircleCI offers machine executors, which I assume are basically just EC2 instances (in the past they were hosted on GCP), and for example using 'large' executor has the same per second billing, but large ARM instance is ~25% faster than large x86 instance.
One of the best post-beginner / intermediate learning experiences wrt. Rust is to try to model the Borrow Checker behavior with Rust. Just write small (>10 LoC) programs within safe subset of Rust:

1. Rejected unsafe programs (and the why)

2. Rejected safe programs (and the why)

.. and try to convince yourself that you understand the logic behind the two.

Speaking from years of pro & hobbyist Haskelling:

Good Haskell modules tend to be quite literate and are therefore easy to read as plaintext. Clicking into the source of Hackage is often very fruitful compared to other languages (Go comes to mind.)

Often they aren't meant to be read top-to-bottom of course, but they're a few hundred lines of code that makes sense and backs a very readable export list.

And good Haskell isn't especially bound by writing and managing the code. You spend most of the time thinking and then a small amount of excellent, composable code pops out. Rinse, repeat, compose it all together.
> why you should expect anyone at Google (or, well, any sub-group with a filter process) would be meaningfully predictable by or representative of their biology's bimodal distribution, in the first place?

I don't think you would; however you might find you end up with a ratio of both groups that is not 50/50 but rather proportional to the ratio between the areas of both curves that lie above some cutoff.

For a maybe less controversial take, as of 2021 there are far more women than men who do, say, embroidery as a hobby. In that sense "population by hours spent embroidering per year for fun" is two overlapping histograms that skew differently by gender. Big peaks for both groups at zero. However, once we filter our discussion to "people who do embroidery as a hobby", cutting off the majority of both populations (but the supermajority of men), we can't assume that the same pattern holds. The trend might even flip; the average man-who-does-embroidery might do it much more than the average woman-who-does-embroidery, just because they've been so strongly selected for; less committed men never would have picked up that hobby at all.

But we can be pretty sure that the population of men who spend even an hour a year embroidering is much smaller than the population of women who do the same, without making any assumptions that those men who do embroidery have any lesser skill, interest, or dedication.

I've seen comments here about school (both successes and failures), limits on kids and aspects of learning. However, the article seems to be focusing on allowing a child to be a child. I have a reasonably high ACES score and while it's anecdotal on my experience, I can say for sure it affected my learning.

I needed to worry about adult aspects of living when I was very young. I was focused on staying alive and didn't have the capacity to learn the way I could have.

My partner is a teacher and I can say, she is regularly working with kids, families and different support groups to try to help kids be in a place to actually learn.

More info in this can be found at:

There are other notable effects of a high ACES score and being on the older side myself, I can add my anecdotal comment that I fit comfortably into my score.
