When you say a Java programmer knows the entire system, where do you draw the line? The stack system of the JVM? The assembly I assume it later runs, the machine language? Honestly, unless you're running Forth on a very simple chip, I don't think you can possibly hold the entire system in your head at one time.

Whatever healthy living for a young Indian middle class woman may be, breast cancer is correlated to multiple factors to varying degrees.
But a lot of those women suffering from breast cancer have to die because it is still underdiagnosed in India.
And that has probably more to do with culture, social characteristics, and the socioeconomics of India.

What always amazes me is the surprise of people who think that they can never get hit, because they have done everything 'right'.

Just like people who don't realize how lucky they were to have been born in a certain place at a certain time.

No! If I get my token stolen or cloned, that's my problem. When have you seen a service provider held liable for what someone did with credentials that were stolen from a customer. If someone steals my bank card and uses it to buy stuff, the bank isn't going to be liable for that, so why would it be any different for 2FA tokens?

As for behavior analysis for fraud detection: that isn't going anywhere any time soon, no matter if our tokens are clonable or not. And clearly the system your bank is using is dumb as nails, so I doubt there's a privacy issue there.
> You might ask, what about modern websites, built with D*t compiled to webassembly, GPU acceleration, reactive frameworks, material design and capable to load the multi-core CPU at 100%? I am not using such sites so I don't care.

Does this just mean that browser developers are optimizing for the right thing, just not something that benefits you? Tons of people use these sites.

> If the system starts swapping, it becomes orders of magnitude slower.

Not really. Browsers try to keep stuff in swap that they probably won't need. Swapping doesn't become a problem until you're almost out of memory as well, and then you might get thrashing. But there's a wide range where CPU optimizations make sense. And such a large fraction of people have SSDs that even swap access can be pretty fast.
So, don't do that, unless you have enough risk factors to justify it. Get it done once every 10 years as per the recommendation.
Why are you concerned about it? Doctors aren't going to recommend intervals shorter than 10 years for people with no risk factors and even with risk factors the cancer screenings are every 5 years. If someone is getting them more frequently than that, there are probably additional factors.

In the US, insurance isn't going to pay for it unless a doctor says it is medically necessary.
That's a bullshit whataboutism-adjacent answer and you should know that.

Hamas use terrorist tactics and are a terrorist organisation. That doesn't in any way change the apartheid-like regime Palestine is under, and the unfairness of all the terrible treatment Palestinians suffer at the hands of Israel. And Hamas' tactics are understandable ( but unsupportable) - what are they to do to fight against Israeli atrocities, expulsions, blockade, apartheid? Submit and accept living in ghettos ? You can't blame them for making a different choice.

I bought a CO2 sensor, and found that the CO2 levels rise to unhealthy levels in like half an hour in my room without opening my window. Since then I only sleep with a window slightly open, and open it periodically during the day.

Strong agreement here. I'd go further and say that introductory stats should replace trigonometry too. An understanding of statistics is simply required to function optimally as a citizen in modern society, whereas trigonometry and calculus are niche.

I'm all for giving tasters of as many different "beautiful ideas" as possible in school, but I think we should be elevating practical statistics into the top tier of subjects that we require kids to go through.
The problem is none of these articles provide numbers that allow you to grok what's actually going one. Probably because journalists are innumerate.

You have a total 4X10^12 kwh/year of production, that's energy.
50 GW that's power.

Wtf!!!???

Teasing it out I think. Solar you get probably 5 hours a day. Wind maybe more? eh, lets assume 5 hours. 5 hours a day, 1825 hours a year.

So 50GW... lets say 50Mkw instead.

50X10^6 kw X1825 hr/year => 91,250,000,000 kwh/year

How does that compare to current production?

Percent added is 9.125X10^10/4X10^12 = 0.0228 or 2.23%

Seems like a small amount but it's growing exponentially.

If it increases by 25% a year then you'll be adding 5% a year of renewables per year in 5 years.
This would / will still take ages / decades.

It could also be that it makes total sense to use 100% solar/wind + battery in everything not city and use fusion in city/for cities.

I would also argue that the 'no longer needed solar' will then be sold and used everywere else until all poor countries also are using solar energy.
Speaking of intellectual honesty, I seriously cannot fathom how people can even compare the propaganda (and the enforcement methods) employed by both sides of the conflict.

For comparison, the Hickley Point plant current being built in the UK spans approximately 380 football fields and will cost $30B.

These are massive industrial complexes + giant cooling towers. This single-building reactor does look “mini” compared to that. It also seems to be more cost-effective, 12 of them would generate almost double the 3GW of that one plant.

Obviously people are getting hurt and it's sad and tragic. Russian forces targeting civilians is a different matter though which needs to be substantiated. We simple can't know right now.

Have you considered a possibility that Ukranian authorities are effectively preventing massive evacuations towards russia/belarus because it would look bad for them in press.
Opera advertises own products on competitor's websites
I should have probably extended the final paragraph of my answer, rather than limiting it to the "public-facing" version. And I guess I invited this with the Taco Bell example.

Culture isn't proprietary to a group, and these groups aren't objectively demarcated in any way. To even say "Risotto belongs to the Italians!" is to make statements on who Italians are, and pretend that this is some immutable, objective group, and that for some reason, there is this magical doorstep that if you carry Risotto over it turns it bad. It's when the corporation pretends to "take" this cultural heritage as a marketing facade that they're appropriation something nobody owns, to then turn a profit from it.

SO, I apologize for my mangled point. Culture isn't proprietary. Languages and food and customs and songs and stories travel. This is what makes human dynamism. Cultural appropriation is the act of trying to take possession of it. The very act of copyrighting something communal is the problem.

Many of them - yes - obviously they don't have troops to win this war, and civilian population is joining. I was personally helping people on the border and while many of them flees, also many travels from the west into Ukraine to help. Not sure why it surprises you - this is quite common in such desperate situation - they are loosing their own country due to pure greed of Russia.

I don't need twitter. I can see results of last Russian visit in my country through the window. My parents and grandparents suffered a lot due to this fact. Nobody wanted Russia then and nobody wants it now in Ukraine. Go home. Stop killing innocent people.
The point is - even in the absence of external factors, you may get cancer. A good part of the cause of cancer are natural processes - errors in DNA replication, oxidative stress due to infection or hell, just plain metabolism. Then add on top all the genetic errors you inherited from your parents.

You could live in a bubble of pure clean air and only eat pure, clean organic food and get cancer.

The answer is to do the best you can, then live your life.
Very useless comment...

A short googling tells you very easy how much co2 a solar panel is creating in production.

And yes creating a solar panel is relativly easy and consumes way less co2 per watt than gas or oil.
Also depending on the scale, seismic surveys are seriously affected by nearby roads and construction, where "nearby" can mean several km in some cases.

> I don't buy the current narrative in the media that Putin had 'expected to take over Kiev in a matter of days'. Urban warfare is a nightmare, unless the defender surrenders voluntarily there is no other way to win than to completely destroy the city.

Unless they expected a surrender ( which seems to be the case - they had advanced paratroop drops and logistics and rations drastically unprepared for a longer term battle,potentially with the help of special ops murdering Zelensky), why even go there then? Nobody sane starts a war with the idea of long term destructive urban fighting. Especially live streamed urban fighting. There's nothing for Russia to win there, so if that was really their plan, it's even stupider.

Tax the externalities. Capitalism is fully compatible with using the price system to express preferences on externalities.
I would have agreed with you day one of the invasion but things have shifted dramatically. Now that so much of NATO has put its weight behind it, Ukraine must win. If Ukraine loses it shows how weak NATO is when it unites (which it has done as has been spoken about ad nausea in the media).
Does bushfire count too? I guess so.
I think modern human beings tend to be like "give me something I haven't seen before!" or "where is innovation!?". We take very fast tech advancements for granted, but I think things can't simply just go up and up forever, sooner or later it'll plateau.

That's an inspiring story!

I suspect that she'll do fine, but she's quite young, to have gotten it. When you are young, they tend to treat it quite aggressively.

I live on Long Island, NY (AKA "Cancer Central"). Before I moved up here, I had never known anyone that has had cancer.

The last 30 years (since moving up here), I have had at least one friend/acquaintance a year, that has dealt with some form of cancer. Most have survived; a few have not. I have one chap that just got done with the "Uncle Fester" routine. It looks like he'll be OK. I know of at least three other women that are dealing with breast cancer, right now.

Long Island is a big fat Superfund site. It became an industrial site during WWII, and pretty much had no environmental controls. I suspect that continued for a long time, afterwards.

The plus side, is that we have the best cancer treatment centers in the world, here.

> not with me or loved ones dying 20 years earlier of cancer

The problem with this stuff is that it's not a hard "20 years earlier", it's minor tweaks to the statistical odds, and without special training humans are just not very good at coping with lots of different low risk of death issues.

We've seen this highlighted with COVID, where people have taken the death odds to mean both extremes of "this is completely irrelevant to me so I'm not going to get vaccinated or wear a mask" and "I'm not leaving the house again".

Those then cross over with the moralising of risk. This article is "I did everything right, I'm a good person, so why did I get cancer?" to which I can only answer that sometimes bad things happen to good people, and that we're all mortal and vulnerable to horrible internal surprises. Plenty of the people in the "not leaving the house again" category know that, if they were to catch COVID, people would point to their pre-existing conditions as a reason why they deserve to die, and would be blamed for taking risks.

People absolutely love to moralise about weight, as well. There was a story going around twitter the other day of "my dad lost several stone unexpectedly, couldn't get his doctor to do anything other than congratulate him, then died of undiagnosed cancer". Medical professionals being unable to look past the weight to realize that rapid weight loss is a bad sign.
I have no idea what that is.
"Not cornering Putin" just means giving him what he wants. It is the opposite of what we need to do - show how weak he is and let his own people give him Gaddafi ending.
Not only this is false but it is a perfect example of blaming the victim.
I do yearly routine blood screening but not sure whether that would pick up cancer.
There is a condition called familial hypercholesterolemia. People who eat normal, balanced diets have LDLs levels in the 1000's (normal is less than 100). You can take a blood sample and watch the fat float to the top like cream in fresh milk.

They often die of cardiovascular disease when young. And it's just a genetic defect.
> That's no secret, that's pretty much from official statements of Russian officials.

As if the official statements of Russian officials are worth the toilet paper said officials use. Did you miss all the blatant bullshit they said up to and during the invasion? That it's only military exercises, that they're pulling back troops, that they're only on a small special operation, etc. Why would anyone trust them?
> I have been getting a full-body health check-up done regularly for many years.

I’m curious how this works in other countries, because in mine doctors don’t really do “full body checkups”. You’d might get a few specific tests if you knew what to ask for, but doctors really do not do any kind of regular comprehensive exams sufficient to detect early cancer like this. If you insisted, you’re likely to just be treated like a hypochondriac unfortunately.
I'm not complaining about a book recommendation. You claimed this book will cover college-level concepts for linear algebra. It does not even come close to doing that. It's misleading for anyone wanting to learn linear algebra and taking your book recommendation.

How is a 100-dollar bill going to help you purchase goods on the internet?

This is particularly significant for low-income rural communities where, if all you have is dollar bills, you get to spend them at the one supermarket within reach, or if you have the money to afford a car, you can drive to the next town to have some actual choice. A currency that you can spend on-line is going to be more versatile in this scenario because of the larger breadth of accessible merchants and goods.
Capitalism operates fine when you tax the externalities, it’s democracy that has an issue setting up the taxes rationally rather than based on which groups have political power.

>I'm half-convinced that the “rank of a matrix” is just an artefact ...

The rank of a matrix is fundamental to understanding linear transformations, since it given you knowledge about the dimensions of the "output space". It becomes more fundamental if the person goes on to study deeper math. It tells you how to compute the size of a basis for the target space. The uses go on and on.

>And distributions aren't everything; I can look up any distribution I want on Wikipedia

Yes, you can look up anything on wikipedia, but not in this book, which is why this book will not teach you the things the OP claimed it would.

>a proper foundation in what statistics means is much harder to come by

It's very hard to get that proper foundation from a book that does not cover those foundations. One is better served by using a proper book with a consistent and well laid out presentation of the needed concepts. Saying one can look fundamental stuff up elsewhere means the book is lacking.
