Maybe but "free" should be related to "freedom" more than "not having money." "You're free to use the park," "you're free to use the library." We need more freedom in that sense.

To assume everyone is a good actor is naive.
If you look at the torrent, it's almost 100% certain it's real. For me, his iCloud pictures seal the deal in terms of legitimacy. It would be a very elaborate scheme to fake all of those. Of course, deepfaking is still a hypothesis that to my knowledge has not been ruled out.
That is the definition of strong. You need fewer rubles now for 1 euro. Just like you need fewer USD for 1 euro now.
I run hundreds of C/C++ programs on a daily basis. Many of these have been running for months on end, yet my memory chart remains a flat line.

Can the Mossad hack me? Sure. Would Lisp stop them? Probably not. Ron Minnich gave a talk a few years back titled, "If You Trust Your Computer, You're Crazy!" How many of Ron's points do Lisp & Rust fully address? By my count, zero.
You don't own digital media unless it's 100% DRM-free and can be installed and used offline. I try always to buy my games from GOG if I can for this reason. Your GOG games will still work long after their service is dead. If they lose a license and have to pull a game from sale, so long as you have a backup, you can always install the game you bought from the original EXE. I back up my GOG games to CD, DVD, and BD discs for that retro flair and because they're a lot more difficult to accidentally delete.
Well you will have to do some work to understand them (read papers etc). But distilled (from larger models) versions of these things are fairly capable of being computed even on the web etc. There's definitely cool low hanging fruit here (though it's not plug and play import a library). The main thing is that these have been proven to be as powerful as they are (last year it wasn't clear they'd be able to get this good), so with some effort there's definitely cool stuff to be built. I'm excited (and working on it myself).

I agree that the characterization as "people milling around the rotunda taking selfies" is grossly misleading.

At least some of the people were plainly not intending or doing "run of the mill protest".

Listening to Trump on that day, his speech is worse than I'd thought. (I'm not connected to the USA so I don't follow closely.)

Do notation gives the syntax and almost the semantics of mutability. I never said it actually means they are mutable, just that it is practically as if they were. Which is what the author says about Monads, they mean that practically it's as if they were mutable.

And yes, that goes with the list monad too when using do notation. It's syntactically and in practice almost as if you were mutating a new list and then returning it.
Ah, thanks. Looks like there's not an actual bill yet, but there is a second draft bill.

However, I looked at the definitions in there and they remain essentially the same. My concerns still stand.
I googled it and found Bill C-11. Not going to dig deeper into it and confirm details, but maybe you didn't hear about it for a reason?
this makes me feel like I am at the eye doctor.
What I don't understand is why they don't try to make inferences about the opponent's private state. I get that the full Bayesian update is intractable, but some sort of RNN or LSTM should be able to produce pretty accurate estimates for the opponent's private info. And with self-play, you can train the deduction head of a NN by adding a KL-divergence between inferred and ex-post observed pieces. That would both make you guess better and also try and "jam" your opponent's inference by randomizing your own piece distribution.
Interest rates and interest rate expectations are pretty much the most powerful driving force in the currency markets. The US is at 1.5%, the Euro area is still -0.5% a 2% differential and it seems likely the FED will keep raising rates more aggressively than the EU will.
>Obesity is not a disease of over-eating, it is a disease of managing hunger.

If that is so, why is obesity so much worse in some countries than in others? Are Italians really so much better at managing hunger than Americans?

It seems far more plausible to me that the differences in obesity between countries are caused by simple cultural habits than by some complex psychological task called managing hunger, which seems less likely to be cultural.
Give Scala a try. It has Java interop and your programs get packaged into jars (by default).
I had experience with the same set of languages as you (including Haskell!) when I discovered Scala and it's my favorite language these days.
As a bonus, you get to use (if you want) functional effect systems like Cats Effect and ZIO.
Big cities saw large population losses; suburban growth declined during pandemic
There are no mega-companies because it is not a single market in practice. Language alone splits your market.

It would be like launching your SV startup only in California and not getting the other 49 states for 'free'. For each new state you launch in, there is regulatory burden and language burden, not to mention culture differences affecting UX. Small markets limit growth and reduce ability to raise capital -> ergo the US competitor will almost always win.
They've been spamming it. This is what the flag button is for.
Television that was made on film has held up pretty well.

I'm watching ST:TNG at 1080p now and it's visually stunning. Everything else about it is still awesome, too.
I think it was less Warcraft's under-performance in domestic theaters that did that (because it still had huge audiences in Asia; Hollywood accounting is weird, of course, but it was still a profitable movie despite it getting the "flop" branding in the US) and more Mute's flop on Netflix that left a black mark. (Netflix's accounting seems even weirder than Hollywood's, especially given how opaque it is, and also seems to have an outsized impact on the rest of Hollywood for how opaque it is.)
This is the kind of subject where your typical engineer, who took 10s of high level math and science courses, who proudly carries the torch of empiricism and scientific skepticism, who literally uses logic in his day-to-day (&& & ||), will suddenly become viscerally offended at merely questioning the orthodoxy of gender ideology present in academia & the white collar world.

You can visually see when the ideology 'hits' by their body language and facial expression. It's a hell of a drug

It's funny too, because I have perfectly logged data showing that the weeks I eat fewer than about 1800 calories reliably, (because I have an incredibly sedentary lifestyle) reliably and predictably lower my weight.

I've literally got a science experiment in my own body that shows reducing calories in, without reducing the actual design of my meals, reduces my body mass.

I'm willing to accept that there are some minor irregularities and difficulties that make "Calories in == Calories out" not 100% accurate, but I'm betting the effect size is closer to +-10%, and therefore easily discarded for approximations, even though they are scientifically significant and could create a more accurate model.
NONE would mean “there is no value”, and UNKNOWN “there might be a value, but I don’t know what it is”.
Plenty of other foods fill me up just fine. A 4oz steak and some broccoli. Bacon and eggs. Meat + a veg does me fine.

"I don't get full eating an entire jar of peanut butter" is going to result in the doctor telling me to not eat a jar of peanut butter.

Heck plenty of people don't get full eating entire tubs of ice cream. The answer is to avoid downing tubs of ice cream.

Maybe. That wasn’t used by regular VHS rigs though was it (ie PAL or NTSC recordings)?

I just remember VHS audio sounding muffled after the tape had been used a few times.

To be fair, recording stuff from RF wouldn’t have helped much either.
This is one of the stupidest articles I have seen in a long time. I could just as easily write an article about "The number of professors today with US citizen parents is at an all-time low" based on Figure #1 of this article but it wouldn't be politically correct so it would never be published by the washington post.

Note that public funding for grad students really exploded in the 1960's so there are just a hell of a lot more PhDs running around today because their degrees were paid for by the US government. In the 1950's and earlier, PhDs were paid for with something called CASH (not credit), from the POCKET of the parents of the PhD - a concept that we just don't have any more today ...
Natural resources are overrated, human capital is vastly more valuable. The EU has a large, highly educated population with stable civic institutions. Sans another major war, Europe will be fine.
I was talking about that w/ my son, how it's just been years (Guardians of the Galaxy in 2014?) since we cared about a Marvel movie.
because Europe has a incredible quality of life? Where would you move? There are some attractive cities outside but they are not many imho. I don't want to drive a car, want to live urban and with a lot of alternative culture around me. I am done with suburbia. It's the other way around, why should I move? There's quite a few reasons to stay in Europe. It's not all about money (assuming inflation stays manageable, but it's a war here, who knows).

I also doubt the amount of braindrain, i see a lot of brain-gain where I live (in the south of germany and I don't include europeans).
Weaken the image and actual strength of the Russian Army and it puts into question their position in the various -stan's on their southern border. The Red Army was a terrifying concept during the Cold War.

I love Postgres but lack of CJK full-text search is the main reason why I am going with Lucene/Solr for in-app search.

It's possible to make Postgres do amazing things (e.g. job queue with SKIP LOCKED!) but at what point do you draw the line and use the right tool for the job?
Bro I'm 27 and I know as of now my job will probably never as satisfying as a I want. But is it a good job, I work with very interesting technologies, some interesting people and discover very interesting techniques, although the things I built is just some deluxe shit so some billionaires can be richer by exploiting a nicely painted set of data.

But it is mostly an easy job. It pays the bills handsomely. And I can take what I learn and use to help the communities I participate in.

Nothing will ever be perfect in that aspect and it shouldn't be.

Working for other people is never going to be as good as working in your little side projects, because that's how our capitalist society works and that's what we have to live with. All we can hope is try to make it better every day.
The original poster I replied to thought that for some reason people who thought that school was unimportant should not be against people being allowed to choose what school to go to. That being against it was somehow contradictory. To quote:

>I keep seeing people arguing that school isn’t important, but also against things like school choice and I really wonder what’s motivating them.

so what did I say, I said
>If you think school isn't important why would you want to spend the extra money on school choice that such a program would entail?

for which I got three downvotes, because reasons I guess.

someone said it wouldn't be expensive, I said ok it seems to me like logically it would but I could be wrong, here are my points why I think it would be expensive. The guy above the post of mine you're replying to said it wouldn't be expensive for any of those reasons but there would be a lot of disruptions the first few years, and I said ok, so then a person who thought schools were unimportant wouldn't want you to shift schools for that reason, because who wants to deal with a bunch of disruptions in an unimportant system? (and in my world systems that have lots of disruptions tend to be expensive)

I think the thread should be pretty clear.
The term 'calorie dense' is used in reference to proportion of other nutrients. Water isn't typically included.

By your standards, Coca-Cola is actually less calorie dense than boiled potato, but I don't think anyone would recommend a Coca-Cola diet.

HIV is unusually difficult to target and mutates very rapidly. It also has the ability to intertwine itself with DNA in CD4 lymphocytes and then start reproducing after a long period of dormancy[1]. Other viruses don't do that.

Deliverability is an issue in both directions:

- when you send emails from MyWebsite.com, you want to make sure that Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail, Proton Mail, etc users get your email.

- when you receive emails to your hi@mywebsite.com email, you don't want spam

V1 of email providers ostensibly solved this problem using lots of data as well as "supervised" machine learning (e.g. you telling the provider that a specific email is spam).

Self-hosting seems awesome if you're only handing out the email to a few people (probably a few hundred max?), you don't think it will be widely shared, and it's a slightly unique email that makes it hard for a script to guess (e.g. "hello@mywebsite.com" will be easily guessed but "john2@mywebsite.com" may not be)

This is optimistic ahistorical nonsense; the UK had a censorship regime until the Lady Chatterly trial. There has been intelligence service related censorship as long as those have existed, as well (see Spycatcher, Zircon). And let's not get into Northern Ireland. Nobody old enough to remember "Gerry Adams has his voice read by an actor" would claim the UK used to be a bastion of pure free speech.

I produced some very fine, eh, shiitake mushrooms in a closet from a mycelium bought over the internet from, eh, Hamsterdam using only a desk lamp and a spray bottle.
I’m tech-fluent and lived pre/post-Uber around NYC. The crime cabs committed was behind the times on tech, the medallion system was wage slavery for drivers, and fleecing tourists sometimes on airport rides.

However, cabs were abundant and easy to hail, and prices weren’t much different than Uber. Cabs are about 30% cheaper than uber today.

This was replaced by Uber, one of the most destructive influences on cities via the traffic and the “gig worker freedom” wage slavery. Add in its shadow war against public transit.

Cabs really weren’t as bad as this thread seems to imply. I hope Uber goes down for this.

Well.... Fats can be bad in that they are calorie dense foods, and thus it's easy to add more calories than you should to food with them.

It's significantly harder to be fat eating nothing but broccoli, but I could continuously gain weight eating only 250g of vegetable oil per day.

Sugar is bad for exactly the same reason IMO
This has been said about the EU, but the market has proven to just be too big to ignore.

It could also be the reverse (see authoritarian countries), with international players leaving the market and local ones filling the space.

The Bradley program is real and Burton was briefly involved. That much is true. The sequence of events and the actions of the characters in his story are fictional.

The oft referenced scene from the film where Army Generals keep sending the designer back to make stupid changes is completely fictitious. The book and film portray the Bradley as a victim of design by committee and the whims of out of touch generals.

The couldn't be more far from the truth. You see, Burton thought the Bradley was a replacement for the M113, an armored personnel carrier. But it wasn't and was never supposed to be. It was supposed to be an Infantry Fighting Vehicle.

This is a class of armored fighting vehicle that the Soviets introduced with the BMP-1. Instead of being a battle taxi that would drive the troops to the front and then leave like an APC, the IFV would stick around and fight with the troops. Adding more firepower.

This is a good idea and the US Army wanted one of their own. They had several successive projects starting in the 1960's that culminated in the Bradley in the 80's. It was always meant to have a cannon and ATGMs. It was always going to carry fewer troops.
I think the answer lies more in males being effeminized by male hormonal birth control pills. Not to mention all the environmental contaminants, like plastics, which can have estrogen-like affects and are reducing sperm counts by themselves.

A male hormonal birth control pill, has factors that goes beyond just birth control, and can negatively affect male masculinity. Both psychologically and physiologically. A lot of guys are going to give that a hard pass and rather have the choice of some other technology.

It could be the FDA is more aware of the masculinity issues or perceived dangers, so are looking more deeply into side effects and long term effects.
I read a good book review[1] that moved me towards the view that figuring out how a living thing works is possible, though not necessarily easy. I highly recommend reading it, but here's a summary.

Evolution promotes fitness enhancing functionality, so we should expect biological processes to be useful for some purpose and hence not be distributed like a random graph (e.g. Erdos Reyni graphs). Indeed, if we look at biological structures, we can find that the causal networks they form are far from random. Furthermore, there are often repeated motifs present. These motifs are quite simple and seem to map neatly onto human understandable concepts (like XOR gates or autoregulators or feedforward networks etc.)

And often, the overall graphs seem like they're tree like rather than some complicated mess of feedback loops (barring autoregulation). This kind of structure is quite modular, and hence we can leverage our understanding of component parts to understand greater and greater pieces of the organism.

There are two problems with this arguement: one, that a lot of the data used for it is not nearly exhaustive. Maybe the people examining biological circuitry stumbled on the rare areas where there are repeated sub-components. Second, even if there are repeated sub components, why should we get modularity i.e. few connections, mostly local?

The former may not be an issue if there hasn't been a lot of dedicated effort towards finding human comprehensible structure in biological circuits, which there might not have been. These things are big and complicated, with many constituent parts, and teasing out the underlying structure may require loads of computation and statistical analysis, which was hard for most of the history of biology.

The latter is not adressed in the book review, or in the comments, but the review author's work makes me it plausible to me that modularity will be common in biological systems. I don't have a good summary of that, or can clearly articulate why I'm hopeful about this. But read the rest of the work of the writer of the article if you're interested in this kind of stuff (key words: natural abstractions, interfaces, selection theorems).

Is this bad? Many said the EUR strength was a curse for most of the EU states (i.e. Greece, Italy etc) except Germany.
Once again, this comment was crude but factual, and it was answering to a bait/attack post in the first place. And go is indeed a simpler language by philosophy that is widely criticised for lacking certain features that a lot of people consider important, and it is made for productivity according to the authors. About the "not smart enough" part, it's not a real quote, but isn't quite the exaggeration. Here's a real quote by Rob Pike:

"The key point here is our programmers are Googlers, they’re not researchers. They’re typically, fairly young, fresh out of school, probably learned Java, maybe learned C or C++, probably learned Python. They’re not capable of understanding a brilliant language but we want to use them to build good software. So, the language that we give them has to be easy for them to understand and easy to adopt" – Rob Pike @ Lang Next 2014, From Parallel to Concurrent

Now read the parent of that post, about the "type system fidget spinner" and you'll see what a flamebait and well disguised personal-attack looks like. Or yours, to see a real personal attack that got flagged and is now marked as dead.
How's the Internet in Puerto Rico?
Ok, I didn't know that. It seems to me like it would be more expensive because, but sometimes what seems intuitive is wrong.
But that basket of currencies is composed of 57.6% EUR. I'm barely an amateur observer of these markets, but it seems to answer the question "dollar sinking or euro strengthening?", it'd be better to look at a basket of currencies that excludes the euro in order to tease out the principal components of the move. And really, should probably also go the other way that looks at a basket of EUR/XYZ currencies and exclude EUR/USD.

But again, this is not at all my area of expertise; I'm a rank amateur with barely any skin in the game. I'm very happy to learn other opinions and ways these things are determined.
