> Critique of liberalism...Critique of liberalism: First and foremost to CRT legal scholars in 1993, was their "discontent" with the way in which liberalism addressed race issues in the U.S. They critiqued "liberal jurisprudence" including affirmative action,[86] color-blindness, role modeling, and the merit principle.[87] They said that the liberal concept—value-neutral law— contributed to maintenance of the U.S. racially unjust social order.

> Storytelling/counterstorytelling and 'naming one's own reality'":': The use of narrative (storytelling) to illuminate and explore lived experiences of racial oppression.

This doesn't sound like history or science, it sounds like personal, highly subjective anecdotes, maybe even propaganda (see Jussie Smollett).

> Revisionist interpretations of American civil rights law and progress.

this doesn't sound like teaching objective historical facts.

> Cultural nationalism/separatism: The exploration of more radical views that argue for separation and reparations as a form of foreign aid (including black nationalism).

Because we definitely want to teach our kids segregation is good.

Now tell me how CRT is actually teaching objective historical facts?

Because in my eyes, this is not a philosophy that cares about facts, or liberal values, or even racism.
It's fine. I'll just put down I'm gender fluid, and I'll just always turn up to work as a guy. If anyone questions it I'll claim I change at night in the privacy of my own home.

Coles Notes version: Unless someone can point out a specific abuse, given the current State of Emergency declared in Parliament, the government could just make a semi-coherent argument and a judge would let the people decide in the next election.

But understand, that's a gross oversimplification where I didn't show my work and jumped to the conclusion. Explaining in detail, while explaining the differences between our legal systems would be far too much effort.
…wow. Did you even read what they wrote?
The question is at what level do you partition the connection. I could setup a server and then vend an IP to the clients. The problem with that strategy is how do you do recovery? Particularly in an environment where you treat machines like cattle.

If you don't vend an IP, then you need to build a load balancer of sorts to sit between the client and the game instance server. Alas, how do you find that game instance server? If you have a direct mapping, sticky header, or consistent routing. As long as you care about that server's state, it is the same as vending an IP to the client except you can now absorb DOS attacks and offload a bit of compute (like auth) to the load balancer fleet.

The hard problem is how much do you care about that server's lifetime? Well, we shouldn't because individual servers are cattle, and we can solve some of the cattle problems by having a nice shutdown to migrate state and traffic away. This will help for operator induced events with kindness. Machine failures, kernel upgrades, and other such things that affect the host may have other opinions.
Thank you, great talk! It's about making a 717 billion pixel image of Rembrandt's Night Watch, and summarizes—or at least touches on—the theory, from a lot of different fields, used in the project.

Largely true, but rapidly changing. Some marketplaces do allow for copyright license statements to be included in the mint.

The better marketplaces include verification of authorship. Adobe is including proof of authorship into its suite of tools.

There's bots now crawling for knock-offs and cross chain mints.

So in the best of cases...if a verified author mints a verified work, which includes a copyright/usage statement, and I buy it...what do I legally own?

I think that's a question for the lawyers.
Are you referring to company bankruptcy or personal? Company is easy, personal is extreme.
This is just a no true Scotsman argument in disguise. To wit, anyone who is young and healthy won't die from corona, therefore anyone young who died from it wasn't "really" healthy and had "unknown" issues.

You can make that argument with any illness, and people do. E.g., you can't get cancer if you eat healthy, oh, you got cancer? You must not have been eating the right diet for your body type.

There's also no evolutionary pressure to conserve its lethality.

What appears to have happened with Omicron is that it has mutated in a way that increases transmission at the expense of lethality:

Indeed -- in Go technically it's "concurrency" not "parallelism" (something the Go folks are careful to articulate) but with multiple processors available, in effect you get multicore processing so calling it "parallelism" isn't far off :).

More specifically, Miller uses separate "goroutines" (more or less threads) -- 2 for input (one for raw byte stream ingest and one for forming records), 1 for each verb (sort then head would be two verbs), and 1 for output (records back to strings), all pipelined up. Some of the recent perf improvements came from splitting the record-reader into two concurrent goroutines like that. Some of the older perf improvements are from pipelining the verbs.

But yes, if you have say 16 CPUs and you launch 10, or 20, or 30 Miller executables -- in the C impl each would soak a single CPU and anything beyond 16, the OS would have to multitask things. With Miller 6, basically the same kind of thing except each executable will be trying to use more than one CPU if it can. If it can't, the Go runtime and the OS will multitask. And both do tend to handle this stuff gracefully and without tuning on the part of the user.

Also I'd point out that even with big files & deeper multi-verb processing chains, htop rarely shows over 250% CPU, maybe 350% for deeper chains -- the input and output processing typically take most of the time, and the verbs in between not as much.

When we run out of memory, systems crash; when we run out of CPU, things just take a bit longer. I.e. the oversubscription is a real but non-fatal issue, for C or for Go ...
I've been curious for a while whether attempts have been made to simulate exactly this sort of evolutionary bootstrapping. It would make the theory much more plausible if under certain simulated conditions we could see life emerge. But maybe that's too computationally intense to do effectively.

> Many people go through bankruptcy and rebuild their credit over several years.

Chapter 13 bankruptcy is deleted from your credit report seven years from the filing date.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy is deleted 10 years from the filing date.

This means no one can even tell you were bankrupt after 7-10 years, which is pretty incredible feature for borrowers.
This sounds like a paid endorsement sponsored by CCP. No real refutes, just brush air away by hand.

You visited a few times huh? I was born and lived there for 30 years.
Not in the sense we're discussing here. Pedantically, yes. Practically-speaking, no. If you pay your monthly statement in full each month, you're no worse off than paying cash for those same things.

Or look at it this way, are you in debt to your electric company, cell phone provider, or water utility? You use those services but don't pay for them until a month or more later. Technically you are, but I doubt you'd feel the need to prepay for those services just to make sure you have no debt.

In this context of this thread, someone made the claim that credit scores are "an enforcement system to ensure you're constantly in debt." That's an overly-cynical look at it. I see them as a simple risk indicator.

A lot of people have this mistaken beleif that paying more interest on loans will "buy" a higher score. It's just not true.
Yes, of course!

Honestly, what would you prefer? That people are forced to repay loans they can't afford? Or that nobody is allowed to take out a loan unless they have enough capital in the bank to repay the loan anyway (e.g. loans are only for rich people)?

Seemingly little known fact, the boom in credit card and essentially usury law skirting was enabled by a Supreme Court decision, the “Marquette Decision”.

The Marquette decision allowed companies to export their interest rates, such that they could use usury laws in the state where the card is issued, NOT where the bank is headquartered. This is what made credit cards profitable.

https://youtube.com/watch?v=2mHsTKvAuZc&t=393

It’s rarely mentioned in “history of credit cards” pop history. Somehow all the “Jurassic park” aspects of America seem to start with a little sprinkle of deregulation.
You seem to think that one needs to learn the human language to learn those keywords. That's demonstrably false, as evidenced by hordes of programmers who can barely read English sentences, much less write anything coherent. They already cargo-cult the programming language words without understanding the human language, and the actual spoken/written languages bear no influence on that. If Spanish becomes the dominant language of the web, some of them will learn to read and write Spanish while continuing to cargo-cult English programming keywords into those conversations.
The case for debt is clear enough with a home, a car, or a business investment. Hard to imagine feeling anything but embarrassment or frustration at paying off a television years after you got it.
Only tangentially related, but I’ve been reading and enjoying Immune by Philipp Dettmer (founder of the YouTube channel Kurzgesagt). Would recommend it to anyone that likes to read about the fascinatingly complex processes the human body uses to keep itself ticking.
> If the objection is to surveillance of the students, I don't see how it would be any better to inform parents about participation in LGBTQ clubs

There's a difference between simply not informing them and actively hiding the information from them. Aibgail implies they are doing the latter. She may be lying or misrepresenting things, but the latter is bad.

What's being done here is heavy surveillance by the school, and the exclusion of that surveillance information from the parents. If the argument is that kids have no right to privacy, fine - share it with the parents.

But regardless of the merit of the particular ideas under discussion now, they are a lot richer and more complex than simply telling kids "racism is bad".
For some things there is simply no way to parallelise events when things need to be processed in order, and the limitation is simply the processing capacity. In this instance I'm surprised Lichess didn't have surge capacity to automatically scale up for a big tournament like this. Sure, it might be expensive, but that's when optimisation should come in (to save costs). Having to cancel a major event like this due to poor optimisation is a deployment failure moreso than a coding failure.

"Software is much easier than hardware. If you are to start a project today in this kind of hardware, you will be operating it in 2029, without changes."

I don't think this makes sense, you are using the three statements "Software is cheaper", "Software takes less time" and "software is easier" as if they all mean the same thing, and proving one means proving all of them.

Hardware takes a long time, okay, that does not mean it's expensive. Building a hydroelectric dam takes 20 years, but it provides the cheapest source of electricity that ever existed. Ships can take a decade from order to delivery, they are the cheapest mode of transport.

This is an incredibly well-known paper within the college education community. But I've soured on it and other similar papers pushing for "active learning" recently. There are a few main reasons.

1) The proponents seem to ignore a ton of research in education dating back to the 80s, or cherry pick certain facts to support their desired interventions. A good example of this is the research program that sprang up around cognitive load theory. Wieman (the last author on this paper, and a Nobel prize winner in physics) talks a lot about how working memory constraints should shape the way we teach students physics, and cites certain research related to working memory (for example [0]). But a lot of that research indicates that some of the strategies he and his institute suggest might be ineffective [1].

2) Both the linked paper and another well-known work [2] lump together a large number of heterogeneous interventions under the heading of "active learning" and conclude that "active learning" "works." But it's not clear which particular interventions are effective, and which are ineffective or perhaps harmful. In fact, this information is impossible to tease out from these "shotgun" style studies. So to what extent should I take any particular intervention that Wieman recommends seriously?

3) I'm not convinced these studies ever appropriately control for experimenter/teacher effects.

This is not to say that I don't think there are important lessons college instructors can take from educational psychology. Just that his current strand of "active learning" research (coming from Wieman and others) should be taken with a grain of salt.

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/09/business/rolls-royce-nucl...

'Rolls-Royce, the British jet engine maker, said on Tuesday that it was forming a business to build a series of smaller, cheaper nuclear reactors as Britain looks for ways to cut carbon emissions and to reduce the costs of nuclear energy.

The kind of reactor proposed by Rolls-Royce would cover about two soccer fields, or about one-tenth the acreage of a conventional nuclear power station, the company said.

These plants would generate less power — about one-seventh the output of the giant nuclear installation being built at Hinkley Point in southwest England.

But Rolls-Royce said it hoped to reduce construction costs to around 2 billion pounds ($2.7 billion) each, compared with an estimated £22.5 billion for the Hinkley Point plant. Some of the savings would come from building a large number of plants and making modules in factories that can then be assembled at sites.

The company hopes to build 16 of the plants, known as small modular reactors, and said each could power around one million homes.'
I never thought I'd be saying this, but Joe Rogan is right here. The claim that it's impossible to get covid twice contradicts obvious empirical evidence - and more importantly, reasoning from first principles gives you no particular reason why it would be true.

This dude is establishing an awfully high level of evidence - PCR tests, antigen tests, etc. between the two instances - which probably isn't even collected when people get covid. Why would you? If you're feeling awful, and you have a positive PCR test, why take an antigen test?

So there are quite possibly a number of cases where this dude's level of evidence doesn't exist, and he goes straight from absence of evidence to evidence of absence. But the extraordinary claim, that you can't get covid twice, is what needs high levels of evidence - which he handwaves away by saying maybe it was the flu. Prove that! Show the flu test results! The ordinary claim is that you can get it twice, and demanding extraordinary evidence for that is just foolish.

> While not a slave, for many bankruptcy will ruin any chance of the ownership of assets for 7-10 years.

People declaring bankruptcy aren't in a position to have good credit scores or acquire more assets anyway. If you can't service your debts, you're not going to be securing more loans and buying more assets.

Bankruptcy is a chance to reset the debt to $0 and start over. The bankruptcy even drops off your credit score entirely after several years, making it a complete reset.

Bankruptcy is better in every way than forcing people to service those debts forever.
