A lot of people can't subitize past four. Counting is another matter: it's a symbolic, deliberate, step-by-step activity.

Arguably most neural networks don't do symbolic, step-by-step reasoning "natively", and maybe human beings don't either. But they can be told to, and then the same network becomes much smarter: https://arxiv.org/abs/2201.11903

Ok, releasing the iron compound into the sky we find causes immeasurable amounts of suffering. Go up there and get it back.

You know exactly what the topic is an you are pretending not to - for some reason.
Anyone who is working hard all day will feel depleted.

I wish people would stop pandering in this thread. It is reinforcing ageist stereotypes.
Here are a number of things that can all be done as threads, over time:

Show them how to make backups, and test them. They need to have confidence that they can recover, and can't damage things beyond repair.

Show them how to use apt-get to install and remove things. This is essentially giving them all of the open source software in the world.

Show them how to use keywords with google, especially -searchterm. This will aid them when they want to find things. Teach them about the "magic words" and how to find them... i.e. annotation instead of markup, that kind of thing.

Set them up a git repository and Notepad++. Teach them how to use it, along with GitHub or some equivalent. Just use plain text until they understand how it all works. Walk them through their first pull request and fork. This gives them the tools required to be able to experiment without losing things, and sets some expectations about working with others.

Set them up with Excel or the Open Equivalent. Show them how purely declarative programming works. Then show them how macros work. Everyone should know how declarative programming works.

Show them how double entry book keeping works. How errors in entry are detected and corrected.

Show them your favorite programming language. Explain how you came to value it, it's strengths and weaknesses. Show them, if possible, some of your code.

Show them lisp, forth, basic and prolog, and explain the strengths and weaknesses of each.

Show them how test driven development works. Make sure they know how to write good tests.

Show them how gnu readline works, have them read the manual for it, and bash (this one is a new thing to me, as an old windows user. You would not believe how powerful that thing is)

For the love of all that is good in the world, teach them how to name variables correctly, how to write useful comments, and how to smell code.

Teach them pair programming, the experience of a few hours can help them skip months of grief. It can be quite a bit of fun to show your kids something new. Don't be surprised when they return the favor.
Well the first sentence is, if not wrong, at least exceedingly awkward:

Writing is key to have impact in large organizations.

Maybe "Writing is the key to having an impact in large organizations."
Haha yep, that just about describes how it went for me. No way would I do all that without automated testing too - the immediate feedback is crucial for broad changes like this, that way if you do find you've made a wrong judgment in your approach, you find out immediately and correct your course.

One thing specific to .Net DI that made it easier was an extension method provided by our architecture team that does a "warmup" of all dependencies registered in your service collection. In practice all this means is, on app startup, it attempts to instantiate every registered service; if a dependency is missing, you'll get an exception for the service that failed to be created with the dep it failed on. Very helpful for chasing down issues related to missing service registrations!
Yup. I think slower, but I go in fewer false directions, create fewer bad designs, and write fewer bugs and maintenance headaches. Overall, I think it's a net win - I'm faster than I was, not because I'm slinging code faster, but because I'm faster at getting to the right code.

But, um, could y'all stop changing the procedures on me every week? I ain't got time for that...
Why should that be a consumer protection bill?

No one is compelling you to pay for a streaming service. In fact there are many ways to pay per-show/movie if you prefer that model, which range from a short term digital "rental" to physically owning a disc.

Applying this to other monthly costs is also an interesting exercise: If I don't just my gym membership, do I get that back? If my house doesn't burn down, should I get a refund on my fire insurance?
That's wild. How does that work out legally? A company can sue an employee for telling a damaging (but uncontested) truth?
Women don't go for average, they go for 20% top percentile or higher. That's the Pareto principle and most mammals follow the same rule.
I do this for a bunch of pages for the same reason—series pages, for example, but also tag pages. I like how it subtly undercuts the recency bias of the reverse chronological “stream” that is the default.
I'm the exact same way, base pay plus vacation time are the most important factors. Bonuses are usually up to some percentage and realistically they're never even close to the full amount that's ostensibly promised.

Just a good way to proverbially crack the whip.

Where can you find Rhodia for prices similar to what GP was talking about (brands aimed at students)? Those are typically under $4 - Target has several under $1.

Clairefontaine: Same question. I know it has a great reputation for fountain pen ink, but I had bad experiences with it. In a sense, it's too good. Line strokes tend to be thinner than most other papers. I can't write on them with my F or EF nib - I get a lot of skipping. Others have had the same experience - the paper is just not at all absorbent (hence absolutely no feathering).

I had a similar experience with Maruman Mnemosyne.

(Just my opinion - I know there are folks who love it).

I often use Figurare - it's similarly priced, although some of them feather more than others. I just tried Denik, and it's decent. Not as smooth as Clairefontaine (nothing is!), but handles the ink well enough.
How about a source that isn't just random spam on the internet?

What anaerobic organisms have you been outcompeted by recently?

I believe the main evolutionary advantage of your anaerobic humans is that they're imaginary, so they don't have tradeoffs, which definitely helps if you want to add features.

I think I'd prefer to be able to detect low O2 instead of instantly passing out; that'd probably be good enough.
Such failures are interesting, in the physicist's sense.

That it struggles with composition sometimes but not other times might indicate model has learned a particular distribution factorization which is good much of the time but makes it unable to properly account for conditional dependencies in certain queries. The issue of losing track of lots of details may also be related.

Its struggles with negation is also fascinating because that has been a thorn since the early days of GOFAI. Negation is trickier and more involved than what one might naively assume.

For those taking relief from such weaknesses, it's worth remembering that this is as bad as it is going to be and probably not for long. Model size is surprisingly small when compared to recent behemoths. That it can already do all that it does is certainly cause for concern.

This was addressed in the write up (it’s very long, so missing it is easy). They ran the script against 30 accounts first to verify it worked, and it did, because the list of 30 ids they tested against came from a different source than the other 750ish. It’s a shitty mistake to make but I’m certain I’ve made similar ones.
> nobody is proving calculus without Cauchy

Unless you are Heine?
To be honest... no, we can't. You're asking too much.

I mean if we're going to take this to its logical extreme, why should personality be fair judgement? Some people have grating personalities and are annoying to be around, maybe they were born that way. Actions? Maybe Putin genuinely believes that Nazis are oppressing Russians in Ukraine. If he did, would that make it excusable?

How about we just be nice to each other? That doesn't seem a tall ask. Don't make mean jokes about short people! But that doesn't mean we can't acknowledge that this social phenomenon in language or make jokes that aren't mean.
I've had almost this exact thing happen to me a couple times. 5'11,'' so it is impossible for me to state my height without calling out 6' guys who are shorter than me.
Your meeting notes don't have to be scribbles. Learn to take quick and accurate notes while listening and talking, and they become an enormously valuable reference.

I'm not being purely metaphorical in this use of "valuable", either. Last year this skill made me about twenty-four thousand dollars.
There are a LOT of hair restoration ads in a particular commute path near me. Like it's a self-referential trope. I used to thing it was just funny. But then, I thought a bit about how a series of similar ads about breast augmentation would be met with criticism of body shaming. It's just... socially acceptable to handle male pattern baldness this way, I guess. It feels pretty gross when you pick it apart that way.
Thanks for pointing that out. It's interesting. Calling it the ministry of truth is hyperbolic to start as it's mandate seems to be fighting on the information fronts and it seems have been formed to be an anti foreign propaganda organization. Of course we'll have to see how it evolves...

"There's no difference between anti-shortness and anti-Blackness, except the intensity and commonality" is certainly a statement, its I guess correct in the tautological sense that "X and Y are not different if you exclude all the differences between them", but it's also not a useful statement at that point.

I'd ask in what way the point you're trying to make is useful, either analytically or rhetorically. I don't see how it is offhand.
>If you are complaining about anything, then yes, that energy is better spent elsewhere.

This is a remarkably unhealthy attitude, and callous to boot.
Soft deletes are just the first step. After some period of time you can automatically purge or manually purge. Which is what they’ve supposedly committed to doing.
Ha! Indeed!

In fact in informal Quebecois French, it's also used as a verb, with the same meaning as in English.

Yes, because the NES had a tile/sprite system, rather than a screen buffer.

When deciding what color the video scan beams need to be at a particular point on the screen, a Spectrum is just looking up the corresponding pixel in the screen buffer to determine if it's foreground or background, then the corresponding attribute block to find out what the foreground and background colors are.

The NES is keeping track of whether the current pixel is within one of the eight sprites that overlap that scanline (of the 64 total sprites whose positions it knew at the start of the frame), and if so it's grabbing that sprite's corresponding pixel from the tile VRAM; if not, it's working out which tile in the background tilemap it's over, finding the corresponding tile image in VRAM, and grabbing a pixel from that.

That's a really clever trick if what you want to do is display sprite and tilemap based graphics!

But it does you no good if you want to do something like draw a circle.

It also required, on the NES, a dedicated PPU chip specifically to handle all those shenanigans. Sinclair were using a ULA to build their video hardware; Nintendo were making custom chips.
Nah. I race on iRacing, and whenever we go to a street circuit, you just ignore the on-pavement markings, and run the optimal line. Once you’ve gotten used to the general layout, you watch for the racing-specific markings (the red/white “piano” curbing mostly) and ignore the rest.

It’s incredibly fun in VR.
Hum... While I agree with it, your comment doesn't bring any reason for people not to dress up to that.

Yes, the people that choose based on it are stupid, and it's a good reason for rejecting the places (and you may refuse just to run the test). But you personally isn't losing anything by looking more "whatever those people are selecting for (not competence, that's for sure)", so it is good advice.
> The question mark operator is unrelated to async - you might say "fallible functions" instead.

This jumped out at me too and I think it would be better stated as “this function doesn’t handle this error” or “this function may produce this error”, which is basically checked exceptions ~without error handling as arbitrary control flow.

> Not really a class. There isn't a good parallel to this in most other languages.

It’s a lot more like a class than the next most obvious TypeScript idiom (structural type compatibility/duck typing). It has to be explicitly defined and that’s the most important part coming from a JS/TS background.

I agree with and fully endorse the rest of this comment.
The "Dark Forest" outlook is not logical when you reason it through.

If everybody in the forest is afraid of strangers, where are they? Hiding in the dark, right?

In that case, without additional assumptions, someone who sees a fire can't just attack; they have to consider the fire starter might have friends in the dark.

Assuming it would be relatively easy to sterilize Earth with some sort of kinetic weaponry, there's no way to ensure that most humans live on Earth, from afar.

For all these hypothetically aggressive aliens know, 99% of humanity could be in the Oort cloud already.

So blowing up the potentially life bearing planets would be exactly as dumb as hitting a massive hornets' nest with a shovel because they might be (are!) mean.

Now you might say "but nobody wants to live in deep space!" - well, we don't, but interstellar travel requires that we learn! And once you are thoroughly adapted to living without a planet or sun, why go near them? They're unstable and dangerous. It's illogical to assume that any interstellar spacecraft will ever reach its destination, exactly because to be successful it has to be sustainable over the course of the journey and the occupants will change their minds.

Hypothetical aliens can reason this out, and can assume that we can reason this out, and therefore assume that in general, life that huddles close to a star must progress to a different lifestyle if it's going to get anywhere. So it can't ever be safe to smack a planet when you can't know if all of the inhabitants are still in the nest.
Does this read as true to anyone? This list looks like "gaps to probably fill in before you graduate college", but you would have to have a very particular student to not have them check out in this grocery list of CS-adjacent topics. Like trying to foster an interest in soccer by first measuring out a field, building some goals, and making sure you have the perfect cleats and ball.
I second your take. I have a lot of experience. I want to get paid for it. If you don't need that much experience, you probably don't want to pay my price.
I'd propose a somewhat automatic congestion toll: the toll for a segment of road adapts to keep (assuming only car traffic; extension makes it less trivial but by no means impossible) the road just about empty enough to let everyone drive at the design speed (AFAIK 90 mph for most of the US interstate network).

The effect is that the mechanism prevents significant latency degradation from demand.

While it's not necessarily possible to go that far over night, looking at how much of the traffic/congestion is from cars, and how many occupants they have, should allow to calculate what reduction perfect car pooling (with, say, 4 people per car) would allow, and at what speed that reduced number of cars could drive (without tailgating). Then, add some safety margin and set that reduced speed as the target for the auto-toll-pricing.

If car pooling physically can't fix the congestion, it'd take a bit for the problematic roads to get enough (mini)bus service to enable the full design speed.

WFH isn't the solution, and proper mass transit takes a while (5-10 years) to build even if you're in a hurry.
This headline is very misleading. "Study finds Anglo-Saxon kings ate less meat than previously thought" or "kings didn't eat more meat than peasants" would be better.

I’ve really enjoyed using Marginalia search over the last few months whenever I’m looking for honest-to-goodness “small-web” content. It’s always a breath of fresh air, provided I don’t look too niche.

you're right, there is a clippy lint for it on a mutex in particular. Tbh I think it might be good to generalize it somehow? Because I think there are other cases it could bite you than just mutexes. But obviously the whole point of doing that in the first place is usually to avoid a must-use warning, so it can't be completely general.

Also, imo, that's probably a clippy lint that should be promoted to a built-in.

Hi everyone. Nezha Monitoring is a server monitoring tool like https://github.com/BotoX/ServerStatus, but it doesn't just monitor servers.

It can alert on traffic anomalies, servers going offline, etc., perform scheduled tasks on servers connected to the monitoring platform, and
