It’s all racism in the end, whether it’s positive or negative racism. Admissions should be completely unaware of applicant race. The only truly fair admission should be based on academic merit alone. Asians being discriminated against? Welcome to the ‘white’ club, enjoy your painful stay. Honestly, what else could happen? To boost one cohort you must cut another down. I assume they can’t reject any more white people, so Asian people are next in line for higher admissions standards. The whole thing is shit and truly unbiased admissions are the only way forward. No-one should be promoted or demoted based on race.
Yes, I would normally write it as LD/Gifted, or "Twice Exceptional" but I changed the order to fit with the conversation.

I was extremely lucky and privileged to go to school that catered to LD and LD/Gifted students. Sadly while the school is still there, they've changed focus to other types of students, namely Autistic students.

While Autistic students are certainly important, seeing the niche I was in having one less resource makes me sad.

I expect most of the criticism of "gifted" programs is embarrassment that the education system does such an awful job with most students. Many would prefer to do away with anything that exposes that problem.

Detailing the problems of the "education system" would be very controversial, as the schools have become political entities in their own right, parents are major contributors to the problems, and the culture we present our kids is a problem. For many it is better, read easier, to pretend those problems don't exist, and to do away with anything that highlights them. But that doesn't improve anything, and actually makes the schools worse.

I'm really confused by this statement.
The vast majority of people are probably running: Windows, Mac os, Ubuntu, arch, (then others).
All of those support docker - the only ones I can think of that don't are freebsd (mostly people's NAS OS?).
Then there's mobile, but I usually ignore this, since most of my dev is in the biology in ML with large-ish data (few TBs?) side.

Most users here using the software may not understand anything about software dev, so they need it to work on a laptop with an external hard drive - no cloud compute or cloud storage (to keep cost low for them) - but it can't have any long lists of commands to get something working.

One command to install and run docker seems to be a decent solution, but the program to do that needs to be accessible from any OS without gaurantee of docker being installed.
The Mac first came out in January 1984. C barely existed on microcomputers in 1984. Microsoft's first C compiler came out in 1983.

> While Samsung hasn’t clarified why it’s throttling Android apps, it’s likely in an attempt to improve battery life. OnePlus was caught doing something similar with the OnePlus 9 Pro last year. The company used an app called OnePlus Performance Service to throttle popular Android apps. The company later confirmed it had added the performance-limiting mechanism to improve the phone’s battery life and heat management.

They should have made it a setting. I run Android with battery saver moderate. Don't know exactly what it does but I don't notice so fine.
Then macOS + Xcode + simulator would probably be the most cost-effective solution.

The core code editor itself uses Monaco (the same thing under the hood of VSCode), but everything else is custom (i.e. file browser, language server, syntax highlighting, tabs, etc.)
Also own a Mac SE/30 and pretty much went through the hoops that the linked article did, only I did all of it myself. I also picked up an ethernet card for it because I had a retro-computer connection who got me one for a really good price (like, an AMAZINGLY good price). Otherwise, the network adapters for the SE/30's PDS slot are pretty rare and usually very expensive.

A far less expensive option is to get a Pi Zero, a USB-to-serial adapter, and a Apple-to-9-pin null modem cable. You can set up SLIRP on the pi running linux and then use a PPP modem driver to connect to the internet on the se/30. You're stuck at serial port speeds, but honestly for most of what you want to do on a computer this old (irc, bbsing, file transfers of se/30 sized files) it's actually pretty solid. I use the pi zero / serial interface for a bunch of my old computers that don't have proper network adapters.
I don't, and this doesn't answer my question.

You are professing a religion when you're talking in terms of "climate change deniers". It is the same primal urge which makes people call others "anti-vaxxers" even though they've had the full spectrum of vaccinations except that single one. Us versus them, good versus evil, the chosen versus the damned. I prefer to think and live in more than just 2 dimensions, the third one making it possible to take some distance and study the subject. My daughters don't believe the world will go under in a climate catastrophe, nor should they. They also learn to respect their environment. They do not crave after plastic trinkets or the latest phone.

I'm fairly sure our "energy footprint" is lower than yours so if anything I should call for you to "repent, sinner!". But I won't and I'll grant you your religion just as long as you grant me the freedom of it.

Shinobi is another option to consider. Besides the typical web gui, it gives you a decent "REST" API, so I ended up building a little flutter app for android which runs on top of a wireguard tunnel back to the site.

The only thing not open source is the cameras and don't hold your breath waiting on something to come out at a decent price. There's only like 5 MFGs that make the actual hardware so most consumer products are rebranded, software locked and sold at a loss to hook you into the subscription. I know Pine64 had some dev kits but nothing you could buy in quantity.
Wow, I'm very curious as to why! Is it because they're imported, or because the asia-side emphasis is on export?

This also makes me wonder what the price dropoff across models is compared to the worldwide average. Is every model "oh wow" more expensive, or is there a gradient upward trend that tapers off the closer you get toward the iPhone 13 end?
> Teachers don't owe you pandemic childcare.

Schools owe students an education. As you can see from this thread, it's controversial whether adults in tech can work productively remotely. Elementary school kids by and large don't learn well remotely. Unless that changes, it's a moot point whether childcare is just a bonus or something that is owed.

As for the "pandemic" part: I agreed with the closures of schools, preschools, and day cares at the very beginning of the pandemic. It seemed reasonable at first to believe kids spread COVID-19 as much as they seem to spread colds and flus. But it was't long before there was evidence that spread through schools is modest [1], especially with reasonable precautions (e.g. masks). And it was painfully obvious education was suffering. Schools should have reopened a full year sooner than they actually did in my area (and many other areas are worse). Society has a risk budget, and this should have been the priority for spending it, not bars or travel or indulging mask/vaccine denial.

[1] I remember a fair bit of this in the news; a quick search found https://adc.bmj.com/content/105/7/618 from June 2020. I believe it's been consistent since, e.g. https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2103420118 from October 2021.
RT America production company ceases operations
I agree, and especially in the context of Python. My Mac comes with Python 2.7 and 3.8, but it seems like almost everyone uses Homebrew or pyenv to locally install a newer version. I rarely hear of anyone going out of their way to stick with the system version outside of specific scenarios (like "IT locks down developer laptops") or such.

And while I'm keenly aware that Python and C++ are very different languages, if someone asked if I'd insist on using the "new" Python17 (aka 3.6), like that was wildly and unreasonably bleeding edge, I'd literally laugh at them.

uhm... Off the top of my head: Revelations about the US military mistakenly planning drone attacks that end up only blowing up civilians and then not following up to investigate these failures? Trump's hidden debt and misleading tax filing? On the ground people in Ukraine, Syria, Afghanistan? Various smaller reports on scams in healthcare or housing in the US?

In particular with the various tax related investigations, I remember feeling bad for whoever worked on them, because they got released when he was causing immense umbrage with his debate performance and the senate was approving the last justice, so no one paid attention.

They are certainly diversifying with more podcasts and video series, some of them more magazine-like or opinion based, but their investigative journalism seems pretty solid.
If you write a decimal literal, the sensible default behavior is to preserve precision rather than throwing it out for speed optomization. Sure, there is a long history of programming languages mostly choosing the reverse default, but it's a bad choice for correctness.
I think they specifically mean assuming no malevolence by Brave and 8x8.

TLS, which is probably the most widely used form of encryption, is also more or less dependent on assuming no malevolence by the certificate authorities.

Your points about possible metadata collection, and end-to-end encryption not being the default are valid though.

> This is in reaction to a much greater moral outrage: thousands of dead Ukrainian civilians because of an unprovoked Russian invasion.

No, this is racism and intolerance under a thin guise of outrage. We are talking about targeting individuals who bear zero responsibility for what people claim they are outraged about. The sole reason these individuals are targeted is because of their nationality. This is cancel culture at its worse - we don't even care about what people think or say anymore, and hurt them for something they can't change anything about.

What next? Should we make the Russians immigrants in our countries live in fear of reprisals? Should our children bully theirs in schools? How far can we take it before the outrage excuse wears out?

Outrage over the Russian invasion of Ukraine is warranted. I feel the same. It is good to see an international reaction to it, and I sincerely hope that this will pressure Putin to stop. The virtue signalling and posturing we have seen this week on social medias is not justice, however. It's a disgusting act of violence by people who feel they can get away with it. Is that violence comparable to what the Ukrainians live through at the moment? Of course not! But that doesn't make it excusable.
Even worse when you know you were on easy mode in HS, and no one tells you about the first couple weeks at university being anti-scare easy mode, leading you to calibrate a work/life balance target too far towards life with all the expected issues from that.

I like their marketing catch, "Molecular Printer" It's bound to catch every geek's, geeks with money, idea of a futuristic food replicator. It's just concentrated flavors, water, co2 and alcohol but the marketing pitch makes it so much more. I'm always amazed how proper marketing can make everything so much better. Good for them I hope they sell a lot.
Something else to consider is that the data doesn't seem consistent.

For example, the top right label, "Read 1,000,000 bytes sequentially from SSD" shows as 31,000ns when I load the page, but when I move the slider to the left and back to 2020, it shows a different value, 49,000ns.

This happens for about half of the values for the data labels in chrome, firefox, and safari. The initially shown values are neven shown again once the slider is moved, even when it is moved back to the starting position.

Does Brave make tabs narrower like Chrome when you open a lot of them? That's always been a dealbreaker for me in Chromium-based stuff, open enough of them and switching tabs becomes a mouse precision challenge and titles aren't visible anymore. So far FF is the only browser I know that can handle a lot of tabs without degrading the user experience.

I don't spend €500 on a locked-down device that I can't do anything with.

But if there's a nice open source emulator for €50 (or in this case, free?!) where I control literally everything, that opens up a world of possibilities.

Also, don't overlook students, countries other than the richest thirty or so, and income discrepancies within those countries in general (especially in the USA where the discrepancy (Gini index from the World Bank) is between that of Kenya and Bolivia). One might want to learn and not yet have that well-paying job, or do it as a side project for fun.

> what, one days worth of consultancy time?

Let's go for the iPhone 11 from OP, checking... that's €519 from the cheapest store in NL (huh that 500 euros above was a good guess). That's 2½–3½ weeks of work for this security consultant. (That's a long time to go without food and rent! :P) If you can pay me that many times better that I could afford this after one day of working, without having to relocate to some faraway country, then contact info is in my profile!

---

I do agree with your point in general I suppose. Yes, in many countries serious iOS developers and security firms that have more than one customer request for an iOS app review per year will easily be able to afford the necessary devices, and if needed wait long enough for a jailbreak to exist. But if I want to make an app for fun, and to even get started I need to invest hundreds of euros? In a platform I'll never use? Well, that's why the few small apps that I built are all Android-only.

Data acquisition is definitely hard, but it's far from the only challenge. Labeling is also hard for many use cases. Curating your labels is pretty annoying. Making your model inference performant enough to be launchable is also hard. Making your model something you can quickly iterate on is also hard. Evaluating your model (with the system it's embedding in) is also hard.

I wouldn't say it has "nothing" to do with the models. Maybe "little to do with model architecture" and "a lot to do with everything around the model." There's just a lot of work to be done to get the business wins you want from ML.
I live in one of these countries. There are lots of people who earn a lot less than 12k/yr but buy brand new iPhones. Why? Because their resale value is awesome. They lose very little value over the years, because a lot of people want to own one, so even used ones retain value. Even if it's something old like an iphone 6 or something like that.

If you buy an android phone, chances are you're going to sell it for a lot less than you got it for unless you're talking about a flagship that's not too old.
