Which part? I think retroactively billing people for arbitrary values like "30%" is dumb, since it doesn't actually address the issues people have. I wouldn't be mad if Apple passed me an itemized bill for my hosting costs and whatnot, but without that kind of transparency it still feels like I'm being scammed.
I don't know that we disagree entirely.

What I would say is that the thing that makes a lesson good for helping students handle unfamiliar problems well directly hamper the more concrete skill acquisition within the lesson and so you don't want to mix the two uncritically. Student outcomes are much better when teachers are deliberate about which lessons are about handling unfamiliar concepts and which are about more concrete skills like adding fractions.

My (superficial) understanding is something like: even with modern lens technology, certain design tradeoffs have to be made, e.g. between distortion and other aspects of lens performance. I have heard it said that accepting some distortion makes lenses that take pictures that look closer to those taken by "old school" film photography lenses, and also that Fujifilm deliberately favors relatively more distortion in their lens designs for exactly this reason. I think my original source for this is Thom Hogan's blog – I have not checked the technical specs to verify it (which you can easily do if you're curious by browsing lens review sites). But if it's true, maybe it's useful information to someone here!

But, the coatings on modern lenses are amazing...
Appreciate your response here. I also find the "pyramid scheme" framing to fall short. But I'm no expert, I welcome a rigorous analysis by someone with a background in ponzi and pyramid schemes. (Disclosure own btc and etc)
Wayland is a protocol - not an implementation. It tries to minify latency by merging together some of the components X11 had and tries to do this in a slim and faster way eliminating "design flaws".

The implementation of the protocol may differ, but I know for example MUTTER, that is used in GNOME (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter)

My experience with traditional stock trading has been a $5 flat fee per trade, with no other expenses. In contrast just sending someone some bitcoin, the equivalent of handing a person cash, can easily cost over $10. Not to mention the rampant outright criminality and fraud taking place on crypto exchanges. If an actor who isn't regulated as a bank tries to sell you banking services, be extremely wary.
Or, claim the entered compensation is not accurate and maintain the status quo.
IIUC most of the mass required to build plants comes out of the air (CO2). Of course, any astronauts wanting to utilize these fungi will have to take some amount of other resources with them.

The most important measure for any radiation shielding in space is weight. We have great technology for blocking all radiation today: lead plating. This is obviously way to heavy for space. Alternative suggestions have been to surround the astronauts with water which presents a lot of challenge in terms of plumbing and weight. Having the walls covered in fungi may actually be a much lighter option, I certainly hope the idea is well considered.
These arguments are shoddy and you know that. If it was so difficult to demonstrate a correlation then so many studies wouldn't have been able to do just that.
If people want to see how fexprs can be implemented they could look at the Franz Lisp sources.
The telco was providing the managed services in this case. That is interesting, so it sounds like this was a complete breakdown in the process somewhere. We weren’t doing it for fun or sport, we were doing it because it was the only way to effectively do our job.

The answer given to the headline question in the article is... "The evidence is mixed—and the practice varies widely across the world"

"Tipping also passes a chunk of risk from managers to servers, especially when between 20% and 60% of a waiter’s income may be in tips, as is often the case in America"

That number seems low, or at least in my outdated experience, it's low. I spent most of the 90s working in restaurants and tips were probably 150% of my income. I was paid very little per hour, and made quite a bit in tips. I then had to claim tips, which was always a smaller number than I actually made. I was paid $3 something an hour, made like $50 an hour in tips, and claimed like $20 in tips. Maybe that's not how it works now?

Because two of the three most used OSs these days have made the GUI an integral part of their design, we seem to confuse what is in front of the user with the OS, whether it's a workflow application, a program launcher or a command prompt.

The UI in my car's entertainment system is not part of the QNX operating system that runs the devices (and talks to the main instrument panel to tell things like the current speed limit or the song that just started to play).

This is good UI/UX work, but it's a workflow app, a personal information manager and it really doesn't (or shouldn't) care too much about the unseen software and hardware that's supporting it - that's precisely the job of the OS.
This would be great if it generated MIDI with a Play button, and also allowed minor chord progressions.

Using Ask HN to post a content-free rant just seems wrong to me.
Blaming the technology is not sufficient to explain the behavior. Ignoring that and putting your head in the sand isn’t an indicator of wisdom.

The Agony of Parents with Kids Under 5 During Covid
Yes, this is a very natural conclusion to make. We all have definitely seen people upvoting content as a way to promote their opinion, even if the content is not accurate or an outright lie. This happens on Facebook, Twitter, Reddit. If people behave this way on LinkLonk then we can imagine how it would connect people with the same opinions into echo chambers.

But I would argue that this behaviour is the result of the incentive systems. Our likes/retweets/upvotes don't have much effect on us. The recipients of these actions are other people - they affect what other people see. And when we are given tools that can influence other people it should no surprise when we use them to do just that. The content that is good at influencing (we are clearly right and they are clearly wrong) is often sensationalized and misleading. The means justify the ends. And the other side lies too.

On LinkLonk the incentives are different and therefore the behaviour would be different. Your upvotes have a limited power to affect what other people see. Instead, your upvotes primarily determine the type of content your future self will see. I believe that you would be more likely to upvote content that informed you, than content that simply says how right your side is (which usually has little new information to you).

But that JEP doesn't actually provide the safe general purpose formatter you're insisting Rust should have built here.

The exact same programmer who you insist will write

format!("\"{myString}\""); // in Rust

will also write:

CONCAT."\"\{myString}\""; // in Java with this JEP

The JEP argues that it'll be all OK when Steiner attacks^W^W^W so long as you only use the potentially tainted "strings" via an API which doesn't allow general string objects. But, that's also the exact situation you've dismissed as unable to prevent abuse in Rust.

Java can't stop you writing your supposedly "JSON" data made with CONCAT to a file or over a network socket, and Rust can't stop you writing some made with format! either, it's just data, who knows why you wanted to write this or that gibberish?

According to you we should expect 0.1% of the "safe" Java using these templates to be vulnerable.
Blood ultimately comes from your bones. Microtubule stress is known to be important to the hematopoietic process. The microtuble-binding drug plinabulin, for example, binds in such a way that helps ameliorate neutropenia. I would guess that these problems would be solved by artificial gravity. Another factor might be increased levels of background radiation, but I would guess that is already accounted for.

This is likely the correct way to state things.

Facebook the product is run by a company named Meta. Google the product is run by a company named Google, which is owned by the conglomerate Alphabet. Google is the vast majority of Alphabet, and they share CEO and CFO. So when you talk about Alphabet's finances or stock price, you're mostly just talking about Google but the name Alphabet is correct. However if you're talking about a company doing thing, you're almost certainly talking about one of the subsidiaries.

Eg, "Google made AlphaGo" or "Google's Deepmind made AlphaGo" is incorrect, but "Deepmind made AlphaGo" or "Alphabet's Deepmind made AlphaGo" are correct, while "Alphabet made AlphaGo" is technically correct but unspecific.

Have you found anyone talking or writing about this "trusted centralized store"? I could even see reading fictional use cases for the year 2030 or something. Bitcoin will be twice as old at that point. What happens to the petrodollar in 2030? Speculative is fine, even encouraged.

Fwiw, socialists have a derogatory term for prioritizing immaterial political agendas like yours. We call it “library socialism.” Some try to wear the label on their sleeve, thinking it’s cute. Socialists, however, recognize that your agenda can only be realized by confronting the capitalist mode of production, which only enforces copyright and intellectual property law to temporarily mitigate the tendency for the rate of profit to fall. In other words, it is a systemic component of capitalism beyond a certain stage of development, and it cannot simply be opted out of.

IndexedDB on Safari has had issues it feels like since day one. IIRC there was a full rewrite somewhere along the way too, and still problems seemingly every Safari release. My favorites were the iOS upgrades that simply deleted all IDB data.

In music there's also the stubborn belief that anyone who's older than 8 is too old to learn, and the idea that the goal of music lessons is to train professional musicians and anyone over 8 is not going to be ready at college age and has to pick a different job anyway.
You can watch shows that your kids will enjoy and are appropriate for them. After all, such shows exist. You just don't want to.

Meanwhile, I can watch shows with violence, nudity and adult themes because there aren't only three channels and not everything has to be child appropriate.

Five Questions to Ask to Have Influence over People
I happen to have a kitchen with both induction and gas tops, and to be honest I avoid using the induction ones almost entirely except for boiling water. It’s simply not the same experience cooking on induction compared to having an actual flame. I feel better as a cook with a gas stove but I also just enjoy it more.

> The research explains that the lack of effectiveness of hoods could be due to many factors (improper installation, lack of use), but at least at first glance it seems that a hood doesn't help with NO2.

I don’t know if you can claim a hood doesn’t help. As you noted, the study admits they don’t know if hoods were even turned on by the residents. It simply doesn’t make sense that hoods venting to the outside would have no effect, and so I have to imagine this is a lack of appropriate controls over the experiment here.

In my experience, HR is the worst part of any company, specifically in terms of understanding humans. If you’re even slightly outside their notion of “normal” you’re fucked. These are the same people who jealousy guard their power while maintaining ageist/racist/sexist policy.

Just anecdotes, but I've lived in the US pretty much my entire life, and I don't think I've ever had truly bad service here. Maybe five times ever it's been subpar enough to tip 15% instead of my usual 20%, but certainly never worse than that.

Meanwhile, in the few months I've cumulatively spent in Europe, outside of Italy, almost all service was dramatically worse than this, and on quite a few occasions so bad I could probably make pretty good comedy sketches out of them. The only real exceptions have been family-run places and very expensive ones.

In Italy on the other hand service has been as good as or even better than back home.

I don’t personally know anyone who has opted for this kind of 4 day week (usually it’s 4x10 hours, not just a 1/5th reduction in work), but I feel like the overall attitude of “life, not money” permeates Europe and countries heavily influenced by it (particularly Canada, Australia, and NZ).

Don’t forget that a lot (most? all?) EU countries also have strict rules on work times - something akin to x hours off between shifts, shifts of no more than x hours long, at least x shifts off per week, etc.

There's not really any need to go through emails by Outlook admins, since anyone can fill out the form and get access to the names and salaries of the participants.

It seems like this being a public initiative is part of the point.

thank you! We will use the data for customer segmentation purposes. For that, we will need to transform all the user's sources into a single entity for a given user, for example. And link that entity/user to another table, with their purchases so we can do the customer segmentation. I'm not sure about latency but honestly that's not really important at the moment, I just need to have a strategy to make an end-to-end solution for gathering the data, transform it and delivery a concise and coherent "user table" for the machine learning dude.
There are people who easily interpret Taoism's themes such as goallessness and stories like these as idleness. I used to be one of those people. This might be in part due to the western translations of the Tao Te Ching.

Recently I found a page by Derek Ling[1], which shifted my perspective.
I now think the point is closer to _balance_ than idleness. When it comes to goals, it means that you can have them... but don't expect to reach them. Goals give direction to your efforts. But in order to avoid suffering when life inadvertently gets in the way, hold them loosely.

The same goes for this story, I think. Not being useful is not going to get you anywhere, but being too useful isn't either.

An informative comparison of Tao Te Ching translations can be found here[2]. It shows how differently the same verse has been interpreted by different people.

You don't have to work for someone else, but you do need to work. It is how humans function, how they gain fulfillment and happiness. Especially with respect to completion. That's why the virtuous side of video games can dig someone out of depression. Setting a goal, working at it, meeting it, and pursuing the next one is the antithesis of depression. The negative side of games comes from the addiction cycles built into many of them... but I digress. It would be better to set goals in real life, work to meet them, then set the next goal. You have tangible results: a clean room, a meal cooked, a fence mended, a yard mowed, a chair built, a sale made, a customer served, and yes, payment earned.

The "movement" may intend to be about "meaning" and "exploitation," but the likelihood it turns into being about transfer payments and forcing people who do work to support the leisure of those who have decided they have a "right" not to is fairly high. I say this because it's happened before.
