That's a fair point, and for many students true, but also not what I was claiming which is simply that these techniques are usually taught. If students fail to learn or have no interest or cram and forget, that's another problem.

That said, it's not like I was taught the specifics of generating mazes, even though there was additional content on it in the textbook etc. - I'm talking more about the general algorithms.

Thank you for having a sane take on this. I hate how the media is trying to frame it as an environmental issue when it's actually a governmental power issue.

If our elected officials want to give the executive branch that power they need to get to work and pass those laws.
Matlab is focused on a) Matrix manipulation but builds a lot on top of that such as Signal Processing, differential equations etc. and b) But at the end of the day it is a numeric evaluation language. Whereas in Mathematica everything is an expression and so it does most of its work doing symbolic manipulation until at the end you may or may not choose to evaluate an expression numerically. This allows it to have a whole other capability doing Symbolic Integration and Differentiation of very complicated expressions, Mathematical Logic, Abstract Algebra and IIRC Category Theory and such like. Don’t mean to be a hater but the MATLAB language and default environment feels clunky in comparison.
An analogy I use often is that Python, MATLAB and Mathematica are respectively like Linux, Windows and the Mac, aesthetically and functionally.
I have used MATLAB as well and their docs are good no question. But the native notebook interface and the “built in everything” environment means you can explore rapidly and run the example code without having to know which other packages you need to buy. So I would put the development experience with Mathematica a couple of notches above that of MATLAB. BUT in the engineering domain especially at Univs MATLAB is king. This is a flaw of Wolfram marketing and pricing not of the underlying product.

Yeah, I was thinking of the Z9 for the 20-30FPS. The Canon R5 & R3 are similar framerates, and the Sony α1 is 30FPS (at least for compressed RAW).

Nikon only recently got mirrorless cameras better than their DSLRs. Canon & Sony have had better mirorrless cameras for several years.

I've got a Sony α7Riv and their 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 zoom lens for wildlife. Only 10FPS, and slower autofocus (and no bird eye tracking) but still a great setup for the price. I tend to be in forested areas around small ponds, so while I'd love a big prime lens for more light, being able to zoom out actually gets critical since backing up would lead to falling into the water.
Thank you, this is thoughtful and considered. It took me a bit to understand exactly where it goes off kilter.

It's at "basically", namely "_basically_ privatized propaganda"

We also agree it is not evidence of a conscious rebranding of an entire field away from being named "propaganda" to "public relations"

I think Kolokotronis is the one figure from the Revolution that gives everyone the warm fuzzies in Greece. I've been to Nafplio as a child and shown the cell he was in, and told that a big hole in the wall was were he was digging himself out (probably apocryphal). To me he's dear because one of my ancestors was one of his chieftains (Giorgos Karachalios, executed by the Ottomans in the siege of Mega Spilaion, skinned alive according to family lore) and because I read his autobiography also as a kid.

Like I say, we all have our heroes...

Sounds about right to me, only r-22 refrigerant alone would have been more than two grand $ on its own, let alone labor, parts, or other services. (And prices they quoted per lb were in line with other HVAC places in town.)

I don't agree with any of your points. Speculators have never contributed to tech, has crypto/NFT become a better place because of speculators? If anything they have made cryptocurrency into a stigma that gets you weird looks.

FastAPI has a lot of straight-up low-effort, borderline spammy questions. I think it's a community /communication thing. Somehow flask keeps the riff-raff down, or at least in the discussion and out of issues. So however they do that, FastApi needs to do as well.

On top of that it definitely is in need of more top-down organization, delegation, and coordination.

No, but if abortion is illegal, knowing you where there can be used as evidence:

So an anecdote, hearsay at best, of one person is stronger evidence than the entirety of the entire population?

Maybe instead of your claiming "wealthy people saw their rate drop dramatically" you should more accurately claim "I heard one wealthy person claim their rate dropped, but I didn't actually inspect their taxes... The majority didn't see this mythical drop. Most saw the opposite." That is the claim you've provided evidence for.

If your world view is formed from choosing one off examples over well-sourced, broad based evidence, it's not surprising you believe things that are simply untrue.

> Maybe you need to take a walk.....

Maybe you need to learn what terms mean and how evidence works to before making wild claims. Anecdotes are irrelvant compared to population when making population claims for good reason.

I have had the same thought and my only explanation is “empire building”. There are indeed companies running at full capacity; most do not.

Here, I believe in taking HTML and then finding the absolute minimal extensions. My most work is to embed a mustache like primitives into HTML. For example <div rx:iterate="posts"><div><lookup path="title"> - <lookup path="body"></div><div> will iterate over an array and render the title and body appropriately.

I then take it a step further by making the binding reactive such that updates flow in real-time.

I am having a great deal of fun with this approach as I continue to explore this approach.

>> Liberalism and pluralism do not attempt to deny other ways of life or philosophies.

> Isn’t that what you just did?

The key is understanding what I mean by "deny".

First, I'll define liberalism and pluralism as I'm using them (from Wikipedia):

> Pluralism as a political philosophy is the recognition and affirmation of diversity within a political body, which is seen to permit the peaceful coexistence of different interests, convictions, and lifestyles.

> Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed and equality before the law. Liberals espouse a wide array of views depending on their understanding of these principles, but they generally support individual rights (including civil rights and human rights), liberal democracy, secularism, rule of law, economic and political freedom, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of religion, private property and a market economy.

I'm going to abbreviate liberalism as L and pluralism as P from here on.

With this said, you can see that both L and P recognize diversity and individual freedoms to a large degree. But this is not an unfettered, unbounded, nor uncritical viewpoint. Some worldviews cannot coexist together. For example, a philosophy claiming that one group is superior and therefore may inflict suffering on others is not showing respect for the ideas of P or L.

So, it is clear that neither P nor L are compatible with authoritarian philosophies.

If you want to say "P and L deny authoritarian philosophies" I suppose that is fair enough. But I don't think deny captures what is going on very well. P and L go to great length to allow many worldviews -- hopefully to celebrate them if possible and at least tolerate them to whatever extent possible. This is quite different than dogmatic religions, many of whom claim to have absolute truth.

If you want to see a more detailed articulation of why one can accept pluralism and liberalism without resorting to moral relativism, read "Through the Moral Maze" by Robert Kane. I'd expect there are other philosophers that hold similar views. His lecture series "The Quest for Meaning" is quite good -- roughly at the level of an introductory philosophy class at the US undergraduate level, more or less.

Jump to Table 5.5 if you want. You can also look around at the other tables surrounding it. Focusing on male height makes for easy twitter-ness. The rest of the tables are less fun to talk about. Based on my interpretation of "Not Feasible" (I couldn't find a good definition in the paper), there is no amount of money that would make moderately tall woman (> 5'8") as attractive as the median height woman (5'5"). And there's no amount of money that would make a less than top 10 percentile attractive woman as attractive (Table 5.4) as a top 10 percentile woman - which is not the case for men.

You can draw your own conclusions about how accurately the data and approach in the paper maps reality. But taken at face value, it's not just short men getting a bad deal.

I second tailwind as the way, and I'm using it along with web components. I think the important aspect of React/Vue was to inspire Web Components to exist. Now that I can leverage Web Components, I don't see a real need for React as the browser is very capable.

You could but without insurance, you are taking a big risk. The point is that I cannot just buy insurance that covers catastrophic stuff. It is binary. Either I buy insurance (crazy premiums) and then I might as well use it everywhere or I don't. If I don't buy insurance, good luck.

The point is that Insurance should be offered for catastrophic issues with caps and out of pocket limits and premiums should be much lower because the insurance should not cover basic stuff and for those, we should use cash thereby have price transparency AND market competition b/w various providers.

> in this case we'd probably do something like Medicare + 20%, which is actually close to what most insurers do for some of the codes already.

But this is how Medicare sets its own prices - they pay a percentage of the minimum price you charge anybody else. You can't then have the non-Medicare parties charging a percentage of Medicare; that's a circular reference that could result in absolutely any price.

> most preventive care is already fully covered at no cost to the patient.

Sigh. Someone has to pay and that someone is all of us.

Health insurance plays on the fallacy most individuals have that they will somehow beat the system and receive more services than they pay for.

So, it becomes a race to use as much as possible. Over prescribed meds for the sexy new illness you think you might have after seeing that commercial, unnecessary office visits, bloated testing.

Combine that with Drs who are scared shitless of being sued so they do whatever the patient wants, you have a the reasons for what we have today which is extreme over use of medical services. And that is precisely why insurance and care is so expensive.
Python had PyPI and scientific packages.
