> An aircraft is stable. Let go of the controls and it will keep flying.

That's true for most fixed-wing aircraft, but it's certainly not true for most rotor-wing aircraft. I'd estimate you've got about a second, if you're lucky, between letting go of the cyclic in a Robinson R22 and unrecoverable loss-of-control.
Exactly, the justification for silencing people based on threats from artists makes no sense and relies on circular logic :) Hopefully now you understand why being quick to deplatform anyone who is mildly controversial is a bad idea and too morally absolutist. Here’s a better idea: don’t worry so much about speech you don’t like. The connection between them and actions (what actually matter) is weak at best.
I had the same issue when I read the article, I kept on getting stuck and asking myself what I was missing.

There are so many topics that one might consider "foundational" in computer science. While this (what I would call the Data structures and algos) is one approach, you could also:

-- start with binary and work your way through hardware and logic gates

-- start off with theory like turing machines, first order predicate logic and work your way up

-- start off with a hello world, and slowly iterate over programming (in a post internet world, this is especially popular) with loops, if/then statements and so on

But, perhaps aging myself, this book is close to my idea of the traditional introduction.
This is poor history. Prior to Japanese occupation, Taiwan was a part of Chinese territory under the Qing for several hundred years.
As long as Nevada is a 50/50 purple state, I don't think things will change much. The nuclear waste site is very unpopular there. Neither party wants to be blamed for imposing such an unpopular plan, and cause 2 Senate seats to become out of reach for them.

With regards to them being "incredibly safe", how do we know? There are countless examples of chemical waste sites around the country which were promised to be leak proof and safe, but the chemical industry was totally lying. Many of those sites are leaching poisons and carcinogens into the environment and we are spending billions of dollars to clean up those super fund sites, and will be spending billions of dollars into the foreseeable future. Does the nuclear industry have more credibility than the chemical industry? I don't trust people who are so sure of themselves when they forecast 100's or 1000's of years into the future.

Lastly, it's not clear to me that spreading nuclear fuel across multiples sites across the country is actually less safe. It does increase the chance of something going wrong among all those sites, but the impact of one of those incidents will be far smaller than concentrating all the spent fuel in one place. After all, it's the concentration of nuclear material that makes them dangerous, since all that material originally came from various mines on earth.
There's no such thing as a child-sized N95 because N95 is an occupational standard, not a general population standard like KF94.

From other comments it sounds like Puppeteer and Playwright are better on this, so will look into switching.
Your comment was personal because it used "you" while talking to a person, and the snark in it was definitely crossing into attack.

Anyway, the answer to the GP is that the government will need to severely cut their spending. That's the same reason on every country with high inflation.
> So what did I do? I simply told him I would never give him a raise again.

It is true that salary have been always losing purchasing power but don't forget also that employees have compulsory raises. This comes from two sources:
1. minimum wage raises
2. believe it or not, unions negotiate with the gov the raises, those are called here "paritarias".

Everything is broken here, laws favor the employees always and that's why no one wants to start a business. When you talk with small businesses this is their number one fear.

Half of the population is convinced that business and owners are the devil, and that they need to die in fire.

And as for inflation, there is nothing to praise.

Most rewrites I’ve seen are huge system replacing projects that came over budget and often missed requirements. I’m not saying there are no legitimate reasons for rewrites. But when people bring it up, I think you need to ask a lot of questions.
Solid, got it. Next time I talk to criddell's kids' university's dorm administrators, I'll try to set them straight. Hopefully they'll be able to zoom out a bit from whatever conversation-impairing details they've latched onto.
I don't think any explanation about a particular site is needed. I came to believe that we in HN all agreed that mass surveillance is bad and that promoting HTTPS everywhere is the least we can do make surveillance more difficult.

Just as no one would want government agents following them around as they go about their day attending university lectures, and just as we wouldn't be happy with that agent asking us "Why, what do you have to hide?", we also shouldn't be comfortable with having our visit to resources on stanford.edu be open to surveillance by every node on the network. In a world where even example.com uses TLS, we can surely expect the same from all Stanford subdomains.
I was already regularly wearing masks in the winter before the pandemic for the same reason, it kept my face nice and warm. Of course it was cloth masks, not N95. But I did wear N95 when the air quality was especially bad.
This is obviously false. First, employers can't just stop giving raises. Raises are governed by law and by collective agreements (although they are often below inflation). Second, no one just quits, especially a crook. Why? Because you can always force the employer to fire you. How? In general, nothing too obvious, you just stop working too hard. Until your employer offers you to leave and is forced to make an arrangement and pay you compensation.

> Did I fire him? No. It is impossible to fire your employees, even for proven misconduct.

> Did I sue him? No. You lose 95% of these types of cases.
According to the article, in the only large randomized studies that have been performed, masking showed little, if any benefit.

As far as I'm aware, most studies, including WHO, show that lockdowns were counter productive, and could result in increased transmission.

I haven't seen a single study that showed school closures resulted in any decrease in transmission, or provided any benefit. I have seen many that showed the harms it imposed, though.

These measures were ineffective. So, how do you justify saying that a hospital's case load would increase by 2X if we got rid of them, or had never done them?
Spelling matters, for sure.
The only thing I could say is I have improved some at working out with a mask on, but it's still noticeable by a large margin more difficult to recover my breath/energy than without.

I don't think I've generally seen that transfer over to performance without one though.
I'm glad your MIL is okay. Are you sure she only got ill because we didn't vaccinate every 3 year old?

Say all those children had been vaccinated, all of them, before daycare started. They'd have gotten a shot or two to be ready for August.

In all likelihood, that wouldn't have done much to protect them from Omicron in December. Omicron featured 32 mutations on the spike protein alone, and previous 'vaccines' delivered only 4 months ago offer "very limited protection".

Repeated mass vaccination, of entire generations of children, to protect already vaccinated grandparents - man, that's going very far. There are many possible unforeseen health consequences to such action - and the lengths to which you'd have to go to get every parent to comply are very fucking far indeed.

> One source (14 per 100k vs 10 per 100k):

Please do not cherry-pick data that has hidden confounding variables. The data DOES NOT SHOW that vaccinated (but not boosted) are getting sick and dying at higher rates than unvaccinated. You are being severely misleading with your statements as “facts”.

Most importantly “In the last week from 08 January 2022 to 14 January 2022, in an age-standardised population, the COVID-19 related death rate in individuals that received a booster or third dose of a COVID-19 vaccine was between 3.2 to 9.4 times lower than individuals who are unvaccinated or have only received one or two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine.”. That directly contradicts your “fact”, and the reason is the simple one that your numbers are not standardised for age i.e. more older people are vaccinated so more vaccinated people die. This should not need to be repeated ad nausium. Pay attention to the facts and please stop misrepresenting the truth.

From page 34 of that report:

“PLEASE READ BEFORE REVIEWING THE FOLLOWING TABLES AND FIGURES There is a large risk of misinterpretation of the data presented in this section due to the complexities of vaccination data. A blog post by the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), formerly Public Health England (PHE), provides a comprehensive explanation of the biases and potential areas for misinterpretation of such data. They state that a simple comparison of COVID-19 case rates in those who are vaccinated and unvaccinated should not be used to assess how effective a vaccine is in preventing serious health outcomes, because there are a number of differences between the groups, other than the vaccine itself, and these biases mean that you cannot use the rates to determine how well the vaccines work.
Below are examples of some of the complexities and biases that need to be taken into consideration when interpreting these data. This is explained in more detail in our blog on the PHS website.” And from page 35: “There are likely to be systematic differences and biases between the vaccinated and unvaccinated groups, such as behaviour, vulnerability and previous infection, that are unaccounted for when comparing rates. As most of the population is vaccinated, these differences become more evident and could create bias in case/hospitalisation/death rates between vaccinated and unvaccinated population.”
Not yet. The trials should start next year with actual usage planned for 2025 currently.

I'm doing this as a test mostly. I bought some 0.8mm 121 pin lattice iCE40HX FPGAs ($5 a pop) to test with with. Few enough balls that you can do a 4 layer stackup without cheating (no traces in the power plane layers).

I hand-placed some 0.4mm QFNs before (LVDS to TMDS converter IC) (admittedly, only a ~90% success rate) so this has to be at least twice as easy.

The comparison is with solar and wind, and there seem to be enough solutions between interconnects, overcapacity, batteries, demand modulations and others for nuclear to not be valuable even to solve intermittency. Here's a simulation for how an 100% solar+wind+battery grid would work and be cheap:

https://www.rethinkx.com/energy

And here's the same reasoning used to argue that even the already built gas, coal, nuclear and hydro assets are overvalued:

https://www.rethinkx.com/energy-lcoe

I've seen other simulations that weren't as extreme and ended up keeping the hydro we have as generation as well as grid scale batteries and even some gas to fill a few moments in time. What I haven't seen is any simulation that makes new nuclear build make sense.

> That may be more driven by the mildness of Omicron than it is by the protective effect of the vaccine

So with this one I wonder if the mildness of omicron is due to previous infection/vaccination than the virus itself being mild. Like if omicron came into the scene in 2020 it would have been just as deadly but more infectious. I don't know for certain if this is true but was something I was thinking.

As for this I 100% agree:

> This is something that is in all likelihood not variant-specific. In other words, cloth masks were always ineffective, however with the increased transmissibility of Omicron, this fact of ineffectiveness has become readily apparent.

> "reversing a string" is no longer possible or meaningful.

If you really wanted to, you could write a string reversal algorithm that treated two-character emojis as an indivisible element of the string and preserved its order (just as you'd need to preserve the order of the bytes in a single multi-byte UTF-8 character). You'd just need to carefully specify what you mean by the terms "string", "character" and "reverse" in a way that includes ordered, multi-character sequences like flag emojis.

The value of the old currency approached zero, so we created a new one. This is a pretty standard solution really. This is the fate of all inflationary currencies.

At least we don't have presidents stealing everyone's money anymore. That's the sort of insanity that cryptocurrency was invented to stop.
- Cypress does not run on M1 natively.

- Playwright is more lightweight. Can be good or bad on what you expect. But I definitely prefer Playwright.
A major thing to consider when talking about nuclear waste is the difference between waste and spent fuel. Spent fuel is relatively low quantity (but more dangerous and short lived) whereas "waste" is any material contaminated by the reactor. The waste is typically much safer but is radioactive for much longer.

The perception of nuclear waste seems to be that it will melt your hand off if you touch it for the next 10,000 years but the reality is that the things that are that radioactive don't have that long of a half life. The waste, which has a much longer half life, is, by definition, much less radioactive. The longer it takes to decay, the less radioactive it is. I think this is a very big factor is the public perception of nuclear waste disposal.

I found this[1] article that has a pretty solid breakdown of it.

Google increases parental leave policy to nearly 6 months
Nope, because the repurposing is independent of how the Unicode is represented. There's absolutely no advantage to having a string in UTF-32 over UTF-8 since you'll still need to examine every character and the added overhead for converting byte strings in UTF-8 to 32-bit code points is by far offset by the huge memory increase necessary to store UTF-32.

What's more, it's really not that difficult to start at the end of a valid UTF-8 string and get the characters in reverse order. UTF-8 is well-designed that way in that there's never ambiguity about whether you're looking at the beginning byte of a code point.
