I’m with you on the wildly wealthy and also elite people like Ted Cruz or that Shapiro fella. Or Josh Hawley. Cant be more of a coastal elite than that! Even I’ve visited the mid west because I wanted to, for non political reasons, more than he has and he’s from Missouri. Which he fled from to go from one coastal elite institutions after another. Or that Tucker fella who a few weeks ago sarcastically brought up Biden paying off his Yale student debt. Even though Biden at most would do $10K debt relief. And Tucker is an heir while going to Yale as a wealthy person is as elite as you can get — no relation to the common person.

Same issues with out of touch elites like Biden and Mrs Harris throwing every other struggling person in prison if it benefits them while pretending it is being tough on crime and prevailing justice. Or Pelosi, or the Clinton’s, and oh so many more. Pelosi with her “let me trade investments with possible insider knowledge as possible” heh.
There is no "opinion of society as a whole". There are myriad different cultures within the society, each with their own opinion.
I don't think there is such a grid with this spare capacity.
Society becomes a more dangerous and unforgiving place, and suddenly men have value as protectors and providers again.

To quote Bill Burr "There are no feminists in a house fire"
I wonder what they look like underwater after they’ve had time to settle.
Ok, you are correct, to state it more accurately as long as civilizations ( in it's current form) exist, there have been slaves, and all indications are that it will not change. Unless somehow each individual somehow become physically powerful enough to stand up to large a collective of the 'enemy', slavery in some form will always exist.
It's the exact same culture that sees "happiness" for women in pursuing "a younger, richer, more x partner", as noted by a sibling commenter. The idea that many women as well as men might find genuine happiness and fulfillment within stable, well-functioning household relationships is entirely foreign to some "modern" ways of thinking.
I thought this too at first, but this is where the real strategy comes out, because you can guess MULCH and that will tell you if it's LATCH or MATCH. or CLIMB, that would also eliminate BATCH. There's intelligent ways to guess to eliminate more letters. Hard mode is only hard because it eliminates this possibility of constraint narrowing.

I think Hard Mode is not a good name for it. The game is already plenty hard.
> But still, she'll never "pay back" what was expended on saving her life.

I’m not so sure. In direct taxes, maybe not. But she earns a wage and and spends that too. The shops she spends at pay tax, and that money goes around. Unless she burns her money, her contribution to society in money alone is a lot greater than just her own tax bill.
That's good then-- preexisting proven technology.
Common misconception is to avoid cash in an inflationary environment. When inflation hits hard, discount rate for assets increases commensurately which pushes down asset pricing.

Better to hold cash up until the point that the discount rate has mostly priced it in, then buy assets
Replace "expects" with "encourages" and you'd be on to something.

Women are massively encouraged in society today, by a barrage of persistent and positive messaging across all mediums. Young men are not. The results were highly predictable and it has been warned about for multiple decades at this point.

Women are subsidized and favored in their pursuit of education. Men are not.

Today from a young age girls are told they can do anything, they can be anything. Today they're openly told they're better than boys and that's not considered sexist. Women walk around with shirts or other propaganda formats that say: The Future is Female. That's hyper sexist, hyper bigoted against men, and yet in society it's tolerated. This cultural behavior is regressive and intentionally promoting of inequality.

The pendulum is increasingly swinging hard against men. If you want a collapsed society, allow it to continue. The deficit is already so bad it'll take decades to repair, in society broadly, from the damage that has occurred amongst younger males.
I would claim, based exclusively on experience, that most small businesses websites are built by web design companies. It is people working in the web shop industry that make decision about build tools.

Also in my experience, there isn't usually a GDPR banner on small businesses websites built on wordpress. A pizzeria, barber, local grocery store, or some other small businesses don't really have or need much on their website. A few images, a page for location/contact, a page about the employees/founders, and for the more advanced ones a web shop. No GDPR needed for any of that, and for those web shops, once a person is registered all the consent are usually given as part of the registration processing.

The typical model that I see for small businesses is also one where no one need or want a graph over visitors. The customer pay the web shops a one-time fee to build the site, and then it mostly sits there until the customer decide to build a completely new website because the old one is getting too old. No A-B testing, no optimization for user retention, no frontend interactions, no user flows. Mostly all the customer want is to not be paying a web developer any more money. This is why some shops will utilize "proprietary modules" in order to keep the customer on their (usually partners) servers, in case the customer might get ideas of moving the site to a better/cheaper hosting provider.

The most common situation that I know of when people are requesting visitor graphs is either when customer apply an marketing campaign and want to see the effect on their website, or when a conglomerate has acquired a bunch of smaller companies and want to make decision about closing down/merging specific website. In those cases the analytics usually get added when that need arrive.
I played classical guitar for years, and am a physicist, and feel a bit sheepish to say that I never realized this.
I think ref-counting is interesting, but I look at it as sort of like Level 3 self-driving cars where you almost don't have to pay attention but sometimes you really do. That's almost worse than Level 0 because humans are very bad at partial attention.

With GC, assuming your program can accept the slight level of non-determinism and latency, you don't think about deallocation at all. There are just objects and references, and that is the extent of your mental model. That simplicitly frees up a lot of mental energy to focus on your problem domain.

With ARC, you get determininstic deallocation and (maybe) better latency. Those are nice, and critical for some kinds of programs. And you mostly don't have to think about deallocation. Except that thanks to cycles, you can create actual memory leaks where you have completely inaccessible objects that live in the heap forever. And, in order to avoid this, you have to know when and where to use weak or unowneded references. Once you throw closures into the mix, it becomes very easy to accidentally create a cycle.

So ARC gives you more language complexity (strong, weak, and unowned references, closure capture lists, etc.). And there is a subtle property that you must always maintain in your program that is not easily found through static analysis. If you fail to maintain this property, you program may slowly leak memory in ways that rarely show up in tests but will cause real problems to programs running in the wild.

Most of the programs I write don't need finalizers much and can afford a little latency. I relish being able to use closures freely even inside classes. For that kind of code, I strongly prefer tracing GC so that I don't have to worry about cycles at all.
> The Morocco-UK Power Project will be powered by a wind and solar farm, approximately 1,500km² in size

I'm intrigued by how 1,500km² of partial shade will transform the Sahara ecosystem.

I hope it will make more life possible in the shade.
Oh, they are interested. Military guys get caught up in romance/blackmail scams all the time. It is a big deal when it comes to security clearances/background checks. They occasionally go out to bars, usually at the behest of their married friends. A single guy with a well-paid government job just isn't a winner these days. Our unit padre told me about a "singles" event organized amongst some local units/churches a few (10?) years ago. Total disaster. 4:1 male/female ratio and many of the women who showed up were not technically single but rather "going through a divorce".
As a human, you already have knowledge which is similar to knowing the internal dictionary: you can judge what other kinds of words Wordle is likely to avoid (uncommon words, proper nouns, plurals). So I don't think it is cheating.
What's the major logical fallacy?
The author of this article used Charles Murray’s Coming Apart as a source. He’s a pretty… controversial figure. The counterpart to him that is more progressive and less controversial is Robert Putnam. His books are a lot more digestible. I’d suggest looking up talks with the author on YouTube. (He even has a debate with Charles Murray - as they are somewhat of friends)

One thing I want to mention here is that it seems that social effects come before economic effects. People go through social change and then the economics follow later. That’s the one thing I would take away from the books/talks. Somewhat ironic to many here.
nerve damage to the spinal cord? or peripheral nerves? why did the nerve damage there take longer to reverse than nerve damage in the brain?

also, what do you mean by damage exactly? the axons presumably weren't damaged. the neurons were apparently not "online" but presumably didn't go through apoptosis. do you mean metabolic dysfunction?
Do you mean STORY, not STROY?

Indeed, they do. So you really have no right to point fingers at "non-democratic EU bureaucracy" when at worst it's the same system as in the UK.

> The EU failed to make a case for the importance of its democratic process

You realise that the UK was in the EU? That it was one of its founding members? That the perceived failure to do anything about this process is shared by the UK as well?

Yeah, it's a requirement by law, tracking must be disabled unless explicitly allowed. Accepting all must be as easy as denying. However a lot of sites offer an easy one-click accept all and the deny all is behind a two step "configure" + "confirm selection", sometimes even with a fake save timer.

Sadly no, but that's a different KPI than "how many visitors you get on your website".

Half joking, but you could have simplified these entire sections to "you have ADHD".

Speaking as someone who is diagnosed with it, you more or less described the dopamine ride of a person with ADHD.

Thanks. I understand your approach but what method do you use to tune the high E? I assume you mean that the low E is used to tune the high E but perhaps you pick an E on the G string for this purpose. Is there any "best" E on the low side to use as a reference?

You'd think so, but banks aren't "all or nothing" businesses. It's not like you can either get a loan for any amount you want, or you can't borrow at all. There's a bunch of intricacies that make is much more interesting.

Say you lend $200 to a guy who also has a house worth $100, you're the only creditor. In the event of a default, you can take that $100 house. That means you only lose $100, not he $200 you're actually out. This is called the Loss Given Default, or LGD. That number encapsulates the you first point, and half of point two.

The other half of point two, and the entirety of point three is covered in what we call the Probability of Default, or PD. The chance that a given debtor is going to default.

I hope you can see how these two number interact, especially when you then also take into account the upside of giving the loan. Providing loans might entice a large counterparty to do more business with you, or it might provide you with access to a new network. It might make sense to make a risky loan if the downside is very small, or conversely it might not make sense to make a pretty safe loan, if the downside is huge. In practice you can multiply these two numbers together to get an "expected cost" of proving the loan.

Now when someone comes and asks you why you aren't going to lend him $300, you then have to be able to trace all that data back to the source.
Lots of instruments use "just-in-time intonation". Like the signing voice or playing a violin: the intonation is what you play. The ear prefers each chord to follow just intonation if you really try to be that accurate.

In that sense, your violin's strings might be tuned to match an equal tempered piano, but your own intonation will not (probably) follow any "equal temperament" for the notes you play on the fingerboard, unless you follow an external reference, not your ear.

When you try to play a fifth on a violin, your ear will help you to play it exactly (ratio 1.5), not the equal temperament approximation. Of course, for the fifth the difference is very small, but the same idea applies to the other intervals.
I've got a chronic illness too. I use a wheelchair. it's very bearable for me. you might be less willing to live with limitations than me, though - I was never terribly athletic even when I was able-bodied.
This is a little flip. They obviously weren’t measuring the wrong thing because they kept going and resuscitated her. The EKG was mentioned as one datapoint on the state of her physical body.

Edit: I’m writing this comment because in almost any real situation, some of the standard measurements won’t be useful. Pulling out one and concluding “EKGs are wrong” (or whatever equivalent) is a pretty easy and common way to feel smart in the moment and make worse choices overall.
Why would it cost millions? The private US hospital might charge millions, but if you have a government healthcare system, the cost is basically paychecks + rent + equipment amortization + medicine + "other" (food, cleaning,...).

I'm not sure what exatly they did to the frozen woman, but for your MIL, that would probably take a few dedicated doctors hours, a few dedicated hours of nurse care (both spread out over the whole stay), some xrays and other scans, and all together would get up to a few thousands of euros max.... usually even less.
Great start. I live in a very rural area, so a lot of my norms might look like prepping to other people.

Vehicles: I cannot cheaply or easily summon a mechanic or tow truck. So I keep tools and supplies to change tires and patch tires. I do some of my own maintenance and repair. I own tools to do that. I keep gas, often in the bed of the truck, but always at home. I keep jumper cables. I keep a battery operated tire inflator. I have a backup vehicle. It runs, but it's not legal on the road currently. I paid $100 for it.

Food: enough food for a while. Without trying, I think I probably have 2 months worth of calories. This is really easy to do with junk food. I also frequently grow a garden, keep chickens, and hunt, which give me a longer runway in some seasons.

Finances: I keep money saved up, and I don't owe anyone a substantial amount. If I lost my income tomorrow, I would have a good year to figure it out, because I live very frugally. My mandatory monthly expenditure is about $400 plus food (electric, internet, propane, insurance, phone). My loans are paid off, my water is free, my property taxes are very low, etc.

Safety: Controversial, but I keep firearms, and in many of the worst case scenarios, I would want to have one. Even if it's just buying me peace of mind, that's worth the minimal investment. The one I would give up last is a pump action 12 gauge, which I think is the most versatile firearm. It can hunt any animal on my continent, and defend me at all ranges I would fight at. It can protect the animals I keep safe, etc.

If your idea of what you're preparing for is flat tires and losing jobs, I wouldn't worry that much. We have systems in place that nearly always prevent small issues from becoming life changing. You can borrow tools, ask for help. I guess I'd just think about life threatening emergencies, in that case, which you've already started.

Personal health: important in any worst-case scenario. You might need to muscle things or people around, you might need to flee effectively, or you might need to focus your attention on the problem exclusively, maybe for a long duration. Taking care of your body is an extremely important step. Teeth, strength, mobility, pain.

If people value this at $12/mo, that's great. It has no use for me, and will likely detract many from joining. When Beeminder raised their rates from $4/mo to $8/mo, they put in all kinds of mitigations for the customer:

1. Not charged if you don't have any active goals.

2. If you fall off track and have to pay an amount, they deduct that from the monthly cost.

The key is to make it easy for people to sign up.

Also, anecdotally, the majority of people will fail the first time round. My first stint with Beeminder was mostly a failure and I stopped using it for a few years. Then I came back to it with the lessons learned and use it much better now. If it cost me $20/mo, I'd probably never have returned to it.
I don’t know… I think over time plastic tends to become brittle due to UV exposure, temperature cycling, degradation of plasticizers. etc. So I would expect it to release more and more microplastics.
The slide rule and the abacus both bring particular mathematical concepts to the forefront in ways that discussion alone doesn’t do.

A particular famous slide rule is the circular “flight computer” - E6B. Showing and working out why it works to do various flight calculations can be instructive.
> But I've noticed that the people who tend to have the biggest problem with music theory are engineers.

My problem with music theory is that in the presentation there is no clear separation of what can be derived from first principles (so, similar to physics theory), and what is based on observations of what people seem to like (so, similar to literary and film theories).

Granted, both physics theory and literary theory are called theories. But they are very different approaches. And then music theory is a mix of both. Some parts can be explained physics-like from psychoacoustic fundamentals, and other parts are like anthropological observations: This is what people seem to like.

And the way it's presented, you don't know which is which.

For a couple years after trump was elected I worked with many illegals. Many of them were scared of trump and had family that was scared to come over because of him. It was more rumor than reality that kept numbers down, but none the less it was working.
The classical answer to this question is given in On the Sensation of Tone As a Physiological Basis for the Theory of Music, a long book by Helmholtz (the famous physicist). He attempts to derive all of Western harmonic practice from physiological considerations. It’s probably controversial, but it’s a fascinating book.
This didn't happen overnight. When I was in my early teens in the 90s I already had a sense, from listening to the news, that employers were out for their own self-interest first and foremost. Massive layoffs, shrinking benefits, and the concept of public companies being primarily responsible to their shareholders all send the same message: "At the end of the day, you are disposable. Loyalty will not be reciprocated."

As an employee, it would be irrational to ignore this and hope that loyalty would be rewarded.
Do you mean that there are issues otherwise? Which ones?
It's important to keep in mind that there have been significant policy decisions that diminish the positive impact of social programs by taking into account the marital status of those receiving them.

It's not necessarily that this keyboard has any particular irreplaceable mojo, but possibly because it feels like it _should_ be able to do something but doesn't. So many great devices feel unfinished because of glaring functionality holes that appear as you invest time in using them. That sensation of a machine being unjustly crippled can be a powerful driving force for that kind of project.
Soon all low profile jobs will be performed by robots (one way or another). We wont run from that.

For that to change we need a system change. And we all know it will never happen, because humans have greed and inequality encoded in DNA. (Its actually true if you search for right papers).

Which is extremely sad, because our human nature is probably what will destroy us in the long run.
