It drives me nuts seeing comments by Americans about how Biden is responsible for the current oil/fuel prices, it's a result of either an unfortunate lack of education on the subject, or an intentional misrepresentation of it.

and supposedly it is efficient, so this would work after all.
Personal notes on that: we know a classic game who tend to be played at a slow peace in society, efficiency vs flexibility. A city designed today for today's needs is far more efficient than a Riviera. However cities are already built and evolve at a hard and slow peace, especially dense ones, especially parts of them full of tall buildings with many owners etc. Even if we design the perfect Smart City today it will be built only after a certain amount of time (years) and we can't upgrade it much like we do for software releases. So cities are the efficiency side of the game.

The flexibility side is for Riviera's (witch in some countries might be called cities, or at least being inside some cities) where people is "a bit dense" but not too much, where we have single-family homes with some ground around (let's say 1k-2km² (~10k-20k ft²) land per single one/two stairs home to have room for future changes) mixed with workspace (small buildings for various activities) and few "more dense" areas for specific activities (hospitals, schools, military/gov buildings, airports, harbors, ...) + some local districts (large enterprises, mining, manufacturing etc).

For a certain amount of decades we have pushed the efficiency model, now perhaps 'efficiency' have reached a level where fragility and absence of flexibility is too much so we shift toward 'resilience' witch happen to be given by well-crafted flexibility.

The point is: will it be exaggerated as we have exaggerated before? Or will it be too little too late? Or the right amount? Some theorist have crafted a "small-medium city" hypothetical future (UN New Urban Agenda), I have many doubt on it but anyway we need both a certain density for economy of scale and sociability and flexibility to evolve in a changing world. My personal choice is a middle ground but still outside urban area to have room to evolve while being near-enough to urban area to avoid being completely "out of civility", I suspect not so much but not so little others have done similar choices. Not much "talented" but just those who can and care about their future. Future air mobility might arrive in less than a decade bridging the gap between actual-city density and actual riviera density or to have the best of both world in a spread model.

That's a dream, a sci-fi one, so something with some valid and solid bases behind, just in need to be drawn more and implemented :-)

I support the spirit of your declaration. I'm all for kids choosing their own life, free of their meddling parents. But:

Make no mistake, by virtue of being a parent, you will mold your children into something. It's your responsibility not to allow that something to be objectively bad for society. It's possible that objectively bad for society is a very, very narrow range of behaviors. It's possible that objectively bad for society doesn't exist, and a society made up of a bunch of murdering sociopaths is just fine to some people.

Certainly, support your children in (mostly) whatever they choose to do. But you're also going to need to lead their interests to some degree, providing opportunities for them to discover their interests. And the opportunities and experiences that you choose to provide are already molding them.
It's not inherently racist, but I would conjecture that these puns occur more frequently with Asian names (unfortunate spellings are pretty popular e.g. Phuc, Bich, Wang, etc. despite pronunciation being completely different). One factor is probably due to their rarity in comparison to Anglo names.

It results in terribly tasteless, low-brow "jokes" such as https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CaOkTKfxu44
Yeah, I do think you're right to an extent, but I think everyone has to be ok with that pain while things change. That's the difficulty.

> If I expressed the Canadian CPI in USD that would look like a 30% deflation. Now we're up at 0.79 USD per CAD one year later. It's pretty volatile.

If you wanted to convert the numbers, over decadal timescales you'd probably want to use purchasing power parity (PPP, or $INT) figures. That tends to be less volatile, and since it reflects the approximate cost of goods and services it's a better intuitive like-for-like match.

Incidentally, if you're still working on "Inflation, part 2", one way to close the central bank reaction function is to assume a Taylor Rule (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_rule). I've long thought that the Taylor Rule should be interpreted as a kind of PID controller, save that nobody in economics seems to relate the "assumed equilibrium real interest rate" to an integral term.

IMO the bulk of this is due to workplace culture, not being remote. Naturally being at home adds some logistical flexibility, but the bulk of the gap is between companies who treat their employees like toddlers and those who actually respect them as adults (see also: dress code for non-customer-facing work, overly-fixed hours, etc). You can see this distinction in the slow creep of employee-monitoring software over the last couple of years, where being remote doesn't save you (though I would guess that this is unlikely to take hold).

On the flipside, there are workplaces who avoid this form of contempt for their employees without being remote. My in-office job at eg Google had the majority of the flexibility you're describing, including the naps! The other companies I've been at didn't have the same resources as the Googleplex, but still trusted me to understand best what determined my productivity. Perhaps I've been spoiled, but I truly can't imagine working somewhere that was so openly disrespectful of my ability to do my job effectively; I'd feel like a McCashier or something.

On the axis of workaholism, this French law and, say, Goldman Sachs may be on opposite sides of the spectrum. But on the axes of treating employees like children, they're two sides of the same coin.

The embedded world has interrupts to worry about.
There are plenty of behaviors of complex systems that we still struggle to model accurately. While we may be able to build conscious, sapient entities, I think that accurate modeling of human cognition, especially and individual human's cognition, may well be much, much further off, if at all possible.

While quantum effects may or may not be directly involved in human cognition, the fundemental difficulties getting an accurate measure of brain state may prevent us from doing any more that making a rough copy.
Nah. This is the glass and steal aesthetic that routinely creates buildings hard to navigate by people who are impaired (even just buzzed), older, or in any way out of shape. Not because no one on the team likes to have a drink but because form took precedence over function.

Same with super thin phones and half a day of battery life. We like pretty things even if they're not as functional.

I actually quite agree with these choices. The ultimate function over form aesthetic is an athleisure-clad American on a mobility scooter. Not good either.
I didn't follow that, what should I remember?
Counter-counterexample: Superdeterminism.
> parents matter, but they don’t make a difference

This can clearly be refuted by the following argument:

1. Human nature has changed little over the past 10000 years

2. The capability of individuals has improved massively over the past 10000 years

3. Any improvement in capability must be due to environmental changes over the past 10000 years(nurture) as nature has not changed

4. Parents are responsible for a large part of your environment

I don't see how this nature vs nurture debate ever became a thing. Smells like leftover thinking from racism or something. IMO the only debate should be around which aspects of the nurture environment are the most important.

One more note to add: Interestingly, in homogeneous/"equal" environments, each individual is given effectively equal opportunity and environment - which will mean that the smaller nature-based differences will start to matter. So from a certain perspective, the more we fight for equal "competitive footing" in winner-take-all situations, the more will see nature-based properties mattering more, which comes with a whole whack of other problems (see the film GATTACA).
Growing up poor in an affluent area, I absolutely felt powerless growing up! Almost all of my peers had cars given to them at 16 by their parents while I didn't get my first car until I could afford to buy one when I was 18.
Since you were done pursuing the idea and were just shutting things down, did you ever consider open sourcing whatever you had? Curious about the thought process you went through around that.

Just because a project is open-source doesn't mean they'll accept a pull request with your feature request in it.

Again, where are you getting the data for these assumptions of yours?

Here we see the goalpost shift: *"OFTEN"* being added.

If the rule isn't always true, then the advice, ("parenting doesn't matter") which depends on it always being true, is wrong. If people can, in fact, consciously better themselves, then the advice to not even try, because _we can only do what our genes and environment tell us to do_, is wrong.

So again, I'll be the counterexample which proves this rule wrong, for the third time in a row: I quit drinking to excess entirely, after previously being someone who, as you put it, _"believed"_ in drinking to excess. Should I not have tried? Before I did, you may have told me, "drinking to excess is just who you are due to your genes and your environment".

The article claims that family environment does matter, not that genes don't. I don't see the connection between genetic research and divine right theory - that seems like a big stretch. I also disagree that IQ tests are nonsense, why do you think that? They seem good at predicting many important social outcomes, so they must be capturing something.

1. snake_case - best of the best. words are separated, easy to read even if the words are not in english or latin

2. ShrtCmlCase - worse than snake. Pros: quite short, does not take whole monitor width. Cons: requires additional thinking and some sort of in-team guidelines. Very opinionated.

3. JavaCamelCase - worse than ShrtCmlCase. Pros: you can put in and describe anything in a single name of a class\variable. Cons: you spend too much attention on reading rather than analysing the program.

I can understand why Java uses long names though. Its oop and enterprise nature is to "blame". This kind of naming is unavoidable when you are building a giant monolith with hundreds or thousands of classes, all kind of inheritance nuances and trying to have all names actually mean and describe something.

I’m reading “Parenting from the Inside Out” right now and it dives into a lot of the ideas you’ve mentioned, looking at how memories and self-narrative formed in early childhood, but also how they inform adult responses to the experience of parenthood.
I was taught that the American way to counter "bad speech" was to do more good speech. That is, it's socialist, or worse, communist, to censor speech and ban people. What has gone wrong at Truth Social?!?
A judge correctly put that on ice, and even this SCOTUS should have no trouble finalizing the “nope”.
If you missed it on Truth Social, you can catch it on CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, BBC, Youtube, CNBC, Twitter, Facebook.
I think the reason these companies fail to begin with is that they are too high level and generalized. Even a specific subset of CLM like managing real estate transactions is an exceedingly complex business domain with hundreds of entrants.

> We cannot even begin to comprehend how people raise larger families with less.

Yes. The financial well being of the parents matters! I was surprised the article didn’t even mention this. Some of the for and against examples can be explained by the presence or absence of money, education in later life, and simple nutrition early in life, for example. The authors didn’t really explain what parenting matters for, nor what the theory they’re countering is claiming exactly. But if what we’re talking about is financial outcomes (and there’s some evidence it is: “Twenty years later, those children were still earning more than the control group.”) then it does need to be stated that financial outcomes of children correlates highly with the socioeconomic status of their parents.

> The idea is so manifestly ridiculous that I suspect those who think it is true, want it to be true.

FWIW, I usually try to take that as a sign that maybe nobody thinks it’s true, and/or the author is exaggerating or oversimplifying history, and/or that I might have misunderstood what the idea is. My sense for the first two at least was tingling a little while reading this.

Ask HN: How do I find a hard shell laptop backpack?
I’ve been searching Amazon and Google and cannot find a decent, or any, laptop backpack which actually has a hard uncrushable shell to protect my new, exceedingly expensive, MacBook Pro 16 inch.

Is there something I’m missing? Every backpack out there is like a padded pillowcase offering almost no protection from drops or being crushed in a tight airplane overhead bin.

For the last 6 years I’ve used a Griffin Survivor backpack which is incredible and was discontinued by Griffin almost instantly. I have no idea why. It’s the best backpack I’ve ever owned.

Here’s one of the last remaining records of it: https://gearinstitute.com/the-survivor-bag-will-keep-your-precious-technology-safe-while-on-the-road/

Pelican has also discontinued all of their hard shell backpacks. Which were great. Now they just have run of the mill useless ones.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

It may not be needed for consciousness, but even if it is, we can simulate quantum mechanics on traditional hardware, just slowly compared to real life. This is why I brought up possible optimizations to the real world.

If it takes us 100 years to simulate 1 second of consciousness with quantum effects, the consciousness will just experience time differently than we do.

Personally, I think we don’t need to take quantum effects into account to achieve consciousness.

"To parents besieged by expert advice, a new scientific idea offers relief: it’s no big deal how you raise your children. Originally proposed by Judith Rich Harris in The Nurture Assumption..."

Well wait, have read a book by Judith Rich Harris (her followup to The Nurture Assumption, called "No Two Alike"). The basic thesis is that children have their own personality, and it's not the result of how their parents molded them to be this, that, or the other. She never says that it's ok to do a bad job as a parent, or denies that pathological cases of parenting can do damage.

There's an idea, going back centuries (perhaps millenia) that if you control the child's environment, you can control what kind of person they grow up to be. More recently, there's the idea that if you make any mistakes in parenting, your child will be scarred for life. Judith Rich Harris was saying that there is such a thing as "good enough parenting", and it does not require perfection, and moreover children are not blobs of clay that you can mold into whatever you want. If it were so, then generations of parents would not have been trying desperately to force their homosexual children to be straight, and nonetheless fail, and you would not have so many cases where one sibling is the black sheep of the family while the others overachieve. Children have their own nature, and no two are alike, is what JRH said, and it was in contradiction to what Skinner and other behaviorists had said. The evidence is overwhelming that she is correct.
No, the tactic used in non-democratic societies is to take power by force, which is what was attempted on January 6.
