I just gave this app a try it doesn't seem like an out-right scam to me.

It has 20,000 reviews and plenty of them look like they're written by real humans that actually appreciate the app. The app also works with other bluetooth SpO2 sensors, and I believe that Apple's official "Blood Oxygen" app is only available if you have an Apple Watch! (Though in either case presumably the app is just leveraging iOS's built in functionality?). Also the app seems to focus on data sharing which Apple's Blood Oxygen and Health apps don't provide. There are some 1 star reviews, but they seems mainly from people that are upset this app can't track SpO2 by itself without a watch or other hardware.

Also the app works fine without a subscription. It does aggressively prompt you to subscribe when you first open the app so it might not have been clear it was optional. Making this non-obvious is sketchy. Subscribing enables Apple Health syncing, sharing, and stats. There's plenty of out right scams on the App Store but this doesn't seem like one.
I'm not sure that kind of multi-decade analysis gets at what you're trying to. Too many confounding factors. Meanwhile, money trouble is often reported as a major factor in marital/relationship struggles. Better might be to find a cohorts of broadly similar SES, then look at them over just a few years, and divide them into "household earnings went up" and "household earnings went down", then compare divorce rates. Still not perfect, but much closer to being useful.

> It's entirely possible the new era of welfare benefits and no-fault divorce open up the door of divorce for many people.

Yes, it probably did! Especially the latter.

> If fewer divorces is your goal then recreating social policy and values of conservative earlier America is a pursuit you may be looking into.

I'd prefer to try to fight it by improving benefits so being poor doesn't cause as much stress. Ideally, also by lowering the poverty rate.

Awkwardly worded and delivered, but it seems his observation was that Black residents were disproportionately negatively affected by Katrina. A perfectly valid point.

I am by no means a defender of Blitzer--his interviews and his framing of issues show him to be a banal thinker--but I feel he received a lot of undeserved criticism for this utterance. Which seemed at the time to mostly come from bad-faith actors like Rush Limbaugh, taking a cheap shot.

>I'm positive it wasn't Pythagoras. Please argue against my actual statements instead of a strawman. How am I positive it wasn't Pythagoras

I was talking about the Greeks not Pythagoras. If previous Greeks discovered the theory and it was named after Pythagoras it would still mean that white people discovered it which is what the whole article is about.

Can you provide proof that the Egyptians or Babylonians had the entire theory? I asked in my previous comment but you didn't provide any. In the wiki article it says they had awareness of Pythagorean Triples but doesn't state they had the full theorem. The wiki says the theorem is actually 4 parts
"The history of the theorem can be divided into four parts: knowledge of Pythagorean triples, knowledge of the relationship among the sides of a right triangle, knowledge of the relationships among adjacent angles, and proofs of the theorem within some deductive system." [1]

I think the problem is the last point which is possibly the missing part for the Egyptians and Babylonians. Do you have any proof that they had the last point?

I never made the claim Pythagoras discovered it. I even stated Greeks multiple times when referring to the discovery not Pythagoras. I even said "If the Greeks discovered it and Pythagoras popularised it then the name would be fitting."

We literally have no idea who discovered it. The Greeks spread it to the West where we named it after Pythagoras. We know the Greeks had fully developed it.

>I don't. Nor have I claimed to.

You said "it dates back to the Egyptians or Babylonians, and it was written of in a fairly extensive manner in India hundreds of years before Pythagoras as well." Maybe you just mean in that time period and not specifically those empires? Regardless, there were people in Greece during those times and since as you said you don't actually know who discovered it, it could very easily have been the Greeks. And like I said if the Greeks discovered it the whole point of the article is moot.

I wouldn’t think there would be many companies running repos as large as Facebook.

If you use a tool like this you would basically be on your own. If you “stick to git” (or mercurial or whatever) at least you have all that momentum behind you, and you almost definitely won’t be the first people to encounter a problem.
Nah. Many windows, from many apps, but typically two or three at the front side by side. I’ll leave Full Screen videos open as a kind of running queue in Mission Control but that’s about the extent of it.

I had designed a similar system for consultant customisation of complicated business rules, although I failed to deliver it. I had intended to:

* Have one workbook per business function. One inputs sheet (variables in), one sheet for the formulas, one outputs sheet (variables out).

* Use a sort of test driven, self documenting approach. When developing with clients, it is easiest to ask them about specific examples, including simple and complicated ones. Consultants understand business rules when they configure a system, but it is very hard to come back to 5 years later when the business wants something tweaked. Test data inputs and expected outputs was to be included on other sheets, with documentation. And the system would validate the sheet formulas gave the correct outputs for the example inputs.

* Use custom formulas for our industry needs with a custom data type for some variable inputs - this is the crux of where I came unstuck with my design (it was kind of SQLish table inputs per input cell, visible in Excel when in design mode).

I didn’t actually finish the system, because I was trying to bidirectional integrate directly with Excel using COM, and I just couldn’t get that working because I overcomplicated it. This was a long time ago, and I couldn’t find a suitable non-excel engine to integrate with due to other team constraints. Note that spreadsheets are inherently side effect free functional programming at its finest IMHO: I wanted to avoid any imperative programming. However we ended up with an imperative Visual Basic like design instead which did work, but it takes extremely highly skilled consultants to use it, and is spectacularly inefficient.
> Keep in mind that most of the foreign films that you can find with subtitles tend to be among the best films the country has ever produced, or the ones that fit their cultural climate the best.

This is really not true from what I can see. European films are routinely subtitled for other languages. (They used to be dubbed instead).

And even cheap and cheerful Bollywood and Chinese movies find a distributor and a bad translation.

Perhaps this is more of a problem on US streaming services. You do have to want to find these things, to some extent. But almost all cinema is produced with a global audience in mind.

That's the point of the ladder - after a year or two you can access much of it at anytime. Buy 1k this year and 1k next year, and your accessible emergency fund is 1k - but from then on it grows 1k a year if you keep purchasing; only the last purchase isn't immediately available.
"Most people actually do use evidence and logic to arrive at their opinions."

They do not. The brain is a machine of lies designed to keep you alive, rather than arrive at some pure truth. The vast majority of your brain power is subconscious. Your brain is extremely good at arriving what it needs to know, not at knowing or truthfulness in general.

It takes an incredible effort in critical thinking (which does not come natural) to unravel the layers of misdirection and crap your brain has produced in order to come to a kind of objective truth. It's such a headache inducing process that few will undertake it. Even more so when the outcome of critical thinking is typically uncomfortable.

Perhaps more unsettling is that even the very concept of you is a lie. Not your body, obviously. Your inner self, your identity if you will. You think you're some kind of well defined, consistent character. Carved in stone. One could perhaps summarize you in 10 bullet points and this idea of you is pretty stable over time. That's how you know it's you.

In reality, the brain has established this concept of you because it's in your best interest. Every little piece of input, thought or memory that directly contradicts it (which is constantly) is carefully dismissed whilst the confirmation of the false belief is amplified. Not because it is correct, because it is preferential.

I'm happy to leave you in this confused state on a random Tuesday. You can now think that this guy is full of shit, which proves my point of your brain filtering information that is not in your best interest. Or, you can agree. The outcome is the same. I'm right. Or, rather, my brain thinks it is. Which is what brains do. It's a defensive organ.
I co-authored a paper exploring this topic few years ago, while I was pretty excited about the possiblity of using embeddings for generalization.

"Towards conceptual generalization in the embedding space" https://arxiv.org/abs/1906.01873

I still think the approach outlined in the paper (using embeddings to map the physical world) is sound especially for the field of self-driving which is in dire need of generalization, but I've since changed my mind and currently do not believe we can achieve AGI (ever).

While embeddings are a great tool for compressing information, they do not provide inherent mechanisms for manipulating the information stored in order to generalize and infer outcomes in new, unseen situations.

And even if we would start producing embeddings in a way where they would have some basic understanding of the physical world, we could never achieve it to the level of detail necessary - because physical world is not a discrete function. Otherwise we would be creating a perfect simulation (within a simulation?). And the last time I was playing God, was in "Populous".
I bonds are also not for funds needed soon. I see some utility for them for funds that might be needed after 12 months, but before whenever one feels comfortable that public equity markets will be bailed out. They do sound like a good option for those that want to be prepared for emergencies 12 months into the future.

>Also, assuming a government bailout will come to the rescue is a pretty risky strategy.

Of course, this is just my opinion, but I feel like it is risky to not assume a government bailout. As far as I can see, the options are bailout of public markets, or revolution.

Inflex (https://inflex.io/) does this bidirectional editing: you can edit any data structure as either a graphical object or the associated code, and the other one updates appropriately. (See e.g. https://discourse.inflex.io/t/how-to-make-and-access-a-recor...)

As for the problem of which things of a data frame are generated from a formula and which are from normal form, Inflex compares the structure with the AST of the source, making it easy to tell that [{foo: ...}] are normal form and so editable graphically, whereas xs.filter(..) is not. The neat thing is you can still edit formulae that are deep within a normal form nested structure.

It helps that Inflex doesn’t have syntactic sugar, what’s parsed is what is in the final AST. It also has a symbolic evaluator, somewhat, so it’s fine to have a list of functions for example and edit the list. The evaluator produces the same AST, rather than an alien format.

This bidirectionality also applies to rich text editors. (https://mobile.twitter.com/InflexHQ/status/14923564133263360...)

Mito has the advantage of being a familiar language and ecosystem, but Python itself has a traditional runtime, it’s imperative and not expression oriented, and lacks sound static type information, so it’s inherently more difficult to achieve some things with it that are easier with a typed pure functional language, especially a custom one.

>I also find it hard to believe that you could accept a fact like this so easily.

What does this mean?

I've looked at the OECD data generally, looked most closely into France but definitely into the Netherlands - the Netherlands actually has pretty good data over time. In both places though there is a significant secondary problem with undocumented homelessness. It's one of the major reasons the number appears so much lower than Germany or Luxembourg, for example.

Even with that, youth homelessness doubled in the Netherlands between 2010 and 2020. Homelessness generally grew by over 25% from 2016-2018, according to OECD data.

The Netherlands as of 2017 had about 70,000 people living in homeless accommodations according to federatie opvang and 30,500 either sleeping rough or in uncertain temporary shelters. According to the CBS it increased to 38,000 by 2019. Yeah, there's been a major decline in youth homelessness during Covid and that's great but it's not a solved issue.

BTW for comparison, France - same time period: 100,000 in accommodations, roughly 18,000 rough sleepers/people in uncertain temp shelters.

>the answer is the way that the problem is measured in either country.

No, no it isn't. The Netherlands does not claim to have solved its homelessness issue, because it has not solved it. How you slice the data between there and the US has nothing to do with the domestic issue.

>There is a very visible homeless problem in every large American city that you don't see in the Netherlands. And Amsterdam used to have a very similar problem that was only recently cleaned up in the mid-2000's.

Not to be snarky but visibility doesn't actually mean anything.
Thanks again for this!

> I still like comparing it to dating, in that it just happens. It's awkward to make it formal and long term. Sometimes we have rituals for this, like university and 1-1s. Often you have to start the process long before the ritual, though.

This last bit is especially golden. The informal process, the ritual. Too often I get fixated on trying to rush into "formal" territory, which then ruins things because it wasn't time for that yet. The informal aspects haven't played out and matured enough to become formal, something like that.

Thank you so much for your "mentorship" :)

The presence of a union does not threaten anything unless everyone believes they could strike if they wanted to. That remains to be seen especially when the union is not integrated with a giant national network that can ameliorate financial hardships in one place with dues in another, and the union is new.

Yet another case where the CVE system is absolutely broken. This has no reason to be a "medium" vulnerability, just like regular expression complexity DOS (redos) vulnerabilities have no business being classified as "high risk" in the majority of cases they're found.

CVE scoring is antiquated and obsolete IMO. It means nothing to me anymore.

> They don't like being challenged by anything

I got in trouble yesterday on Twitter after making a simple suggestion about video techniques, got called a douche, all their friends jumped on me and I got blocked. It was bizarre. Afterwards I came up with this:

Ignorant people will attack and ignore you if you try to give them information they lack. That's why they're ignorant. From Latin ignorantia "want of knowledge". Ignoration (1832) has been used in the sense "act of ignoring."

I'm abandoning social media more and more these days because so few people have the ability to think critically. It's mostly emotional reasoning and it's the same old tropes over and over again, endlessly.
I tend to mischievously misapply the word "Challenging" to movies I think shouldn't have been made because they expose the bigotry of their audience.

We had a system like this when I worked at a retail store, and later a movie theater. It was a double-sided cassette that had 60 minutes of audio, and would auto switch from A/B side and back again. Most of the year it was just instrumental background music, but Christmas was a really hated time of year, as all those songs have lyrics (that's what makes them Christmas themed) and it was very obvious how long you'd been working your shift when the celebrity version of "Jingle Bells" played for the fifth time that day.
Googler, opinions are my own.

This was my understanding as well. The original Drive was built effectively as a directed graph (with cycles allowed). Any file or folder could be stored in multiple locations. And permissions were at a per-file basis, so 2 people viewing the same folder may see different sets of files.

And permissions were definitely a hard part of it, as if you applied new permissions to a folder and all children, it had to walk the entire graph to update the permissions.

This is the advantage of the Team Drive style structure that the Drive team put out. It follows the classic filesystem design of a tree, which allows for easier permissions modeling, among other things. It's also why all "hard links" are now becoming shortcuts / Soft-links.

This is one of the reasons certain economists recommend cash payments over benefits like SNAP for poor people. People generally have a good idea of how they could invest in themselves for an immediate improvement in their situation. Be that getting the money for a down payment on a car, house, or apartment; getting tools they need to start side business; taking time off to take a class at a community college; etc.
