"The Home Computer Generation":"Computer Literacy"::"The Everquest Generation":"Gaming Literacy"

Young gamers starting off in everquest had a hard time of it (just like the author states with getting things to work on computers), then we made everything easier e.g., finding groups, minimaps, pay-to-win" (as the author states with Steam), and now we have a generation of people who don't understand how things work...

My very first encounter with a Nigerian Prince scam was in the form of a fax received by my college roommate. He was from another country and didn't really understand it. I remember just telling him it looked suspicious and to ignore it.

Around the same time I also knew a religious family who had the a copy of the Proctor & Gamble "Satanism" warning taped to the front of their refrigerator (it listed all the P&G brands, so they'd know which ones to avoid).

> more importantly they only make a difference in people with extremely severe depression

Which your link confirms. And your link also states that antidepressants were oversold, especially to people with mild depression, a level for which antidepressants aren’t particularly good at treating especially in light of the side effects and difficulty to quit.
Erm, are you aware of any other machine, that is able for self repairing and self replicating in a complex and changing environment?

I really would not call my body bad engineering, just because I do not understand how it works in detail.

Rather the opposite, the more I learn, the more amazed I am, how awesome it all is. The complex interactions of chemical, electrical and physical components. (And who knows, maybe even quantum field elements.)

I could not design anything remotely complex at all.

Also, I debug and fix my body all the time, or rather, my body does this mostly in auto mode.
It was:

600 a week for people on unemployment on top of normal unemployment.

1400 of stimulus checks to a large percentage of Americans.

PPP loans given to business that large weren't paid back

Lots of little stuff that funded stresses institutions.

Stimulus isn't too blame at all for the inflation we are facing, supply chain limits and war are also responsible.

However, to say stimulus was "just 600 dollars" is crazy misrepresentative and totally ignores that the American stimulus package was literally the most robust and impactful examples of stimulus in the world.

You jail a father, kid gets mocked in school because the father is in jail and he kills some mates with a knife.

I don't believe any of the points you make are drivers of violence at all. You perhaps failed to analyze the typical issues.

I do agree that a society might want to ban guns. Policing is much safer and there are a lot of other advantages. Fewer deaths too of course. But I heavily doubt the presence of guns is reason for an increase in violence among younger people. On the contrary, I think some people are well underway to create self-fulfilling prophecies. Security at schools is part of that.

There is a recent increase in crime but certainly to none of the factors you mentioned. I live happily in a country without access to assault rifles. But we probably disagree on what constitutes drivers of violence.

The fact that some corporations and governments are guilty doesn't mean they all are. And the fact that they're guilty of some things doesn't mean we should assume they're guilty of others. It's no different than with people; corporations and governments are made of people, after all.

Besides, the constant negativity is just exhausting for all involved. I'm glad intellectual curiosity won out on this thread, at least for now.
Last I checked the EU was still the largest single market block in the world. Maybe that changed since then, but I don't think Apple will simply cede that to a competitor - especially since it would go heavily against their "we care about users" narrative.

I think most chess players are comparing them in the same circumstances, e.g on pure skill.

So for example Fischer said Capablanca and Morphy, under the same circumstances, could beat anyone (if they were born in the same era, using the same tools, etc.)
Perhaps you might say something like that for e.g. competitive coding or leetcode.

I honestly expect the opposite—it takes so much expertise to be able to condense so much knowledge in such short writing, with proper build-up of interdependent concepts and without losing clarity.
Driving without insurance should be a jailable offence and needs to be taken far more seriously. You are at risk of not having coverage when you cause significant injury or death to someone. If a breadwinner for a family is no longer able to work, the verdict may be more than you can earn in a lifetime which makes you into some sort of debt slave. Not having insurance when you can inflict severe harm on other people is quite dystopian.
Not surprising; teams.microsoft.com goes straight to a login page, so you wouldn't know that's the domain unless you use the product.
A logical qubit is by definition one which has a low enough error rate to preform quantum computations. That article is misleadingly using the term "logical qubits" to refer to a grouping of physical qubits which merely attempts to reduce the error rate. The resulting rate is still too high to perform computations so it cannot, yet, be called a logical qubit in the accepted sense.
Another data point from a startup, we have a few people also globally distributed on on-call, we use each other as backups in case as the commenter suggested you're drunk at a bar or camping. Our site doesn't break much (haven't had an incident for over a month now, maybe something happens once every 1-3 months and it's usually not severe) and we have redundancy in the schedule so we've come to not feel so neurotic about it.

I think you might be looking at my comment in too much of a binary way. You also shouldn't build houses in places that regularly flood either.

We have more than enough land in hospitable places with abundant water, and no consistent flooding or other major disasters.

Our shortsightedness alone probably leads to more than enough waste to house and feed the entirety of the planet.

Moving huge amounts of people is of course a logistical nightmare, but it would have been much easier a few hundred years ago.

Anyway, none of this is realistic because we're humans. Our foolishness is an inherent trait. If we can survive ourselves, it'll be out of pure luck.
I think people are starting from the wrong end of the problem. It appears we have two types of roads, access roads (think last mile roads in residential or rural areas) whose replacement cycle is driven by useful life vs usage. Then we have high throughput roads, that have enough volume to require usage driven replacement cycles. So if those access roads are y% of the miles and x% of the cost, then a vehicle “access” tax should be levied to cover that part of the system, and toll/usage based tax should be levied to maintain the usage based part of the system.

Side note: to adjust for the pollution CO2 element you could add a tax to the wholesale price per MW of electricity based on generation type, in addition to a lower, purely pollution priced gas tax
It's probably too basic for anyone who's taken even college-level math courses, but I thought it was an engaging summer read that got my imagination going. Easy to read but also required some work. It was fun to imagine examples of everyday life as geometric objects -- but you probably have to be in the mood for that to enjoy it.

I have worked with people that did, and while rare it is very painful.

In one case the person had seniority over me and kept "refactoring" our codebase in a team of 8. You'd write a function that worked one day and come back the next and it was broken because "I changed the name of that function because it did sound right".

Some people are weirdos and nothing short of their manager telling them to STFU and do their job will stop them.

I absolutely agree with you, but here's a hypothesis worth considering: What if we're building a society that is so complicated that it just isn't feasible for individuals to make informed decisions about important matters any more?

Societies have long accepted that things like medical treatments have to be prescribed by an expert, and some societies have even decided that healthy people can be forced to have medical treatments even against their will (i.e. vaccines).

My hope is that we are just in a temporary phase, where society has learnt how to transmit information freely but not how to reliably transmit trust. If the reputations of software developers and medical practitioners could be established without corporate or government monopolies, then society might get past this local minimum and into a more stable state.

My car starts blasting the FM radio if I don’t plug my iPhone in. I have never and will never willingly listen to FM radio, and yet, Ford has decided that it must be played at full volume an uncertain interval after the car is started. It’s caused me enough anxiety that I’ll be buying a different car next time.

It's been a few years since I was in Europe, but I'm pretty sure folks there make appointments and show up at work/school at a specific time.

Public transit is fine for all of these things if it runs reliably, often, and with sensible routing. You leave a little earlier, but someone else is doing the driving, so it's a nice time to read, check email, etc.
I have not any experience with mathjs and did not have any expectations. But I felt in love after writing this:

r = u / i

u = 220V

i = 1A

r = u / i

because the editor correctly guessed that I am talking about ohms. BTW I really needed that "max-width" option because on my 1080x2560 vertical monitor I use to see only "o" instead of "ohm" without the option.
How do you feel about relatively high taxes on alcohol and cigarettes? I enjoy a good beer, but I understand the reason for alcohol tax. Do you also favor low cigarette taxation? The "end of life" costs for heavy cigarette smokers cannot be overlooked! Also, the UK had a lot of success with the sugar tax.

This article is dead-on. I would never consider a career in politics because I like having a semblance of a private life instead of being subject to constant scrutiny.
> But it's not exploitation if the participants are willingly choosing the option.

That's some very technical/amoral understanding of exploitation (I guess this kind of thinking helps many people in the West sleep at night. Whilst the reality is that our standard of living is only made possible via other people's suffering). Consider a scenario: a guy goes for a stroll into a forest, has a heart attack there and needs immediate help. I see him and propose "I will call for help only if you will work for me for free for the next 10 years.". Of course, he willingly obliges. In your book, is that exploitation or not?

> The immigrant worker receives a higher pay doing what you call "humiliating labour"

It's what most people would call "humiliating labour". The old people these pseudo-nurses have to take care of curse at them, treat them as their slaves, make sexual advances towards them etc. All the while they're required to be in their house 24/7, sometimes with a Sunday afternoon off. It's arguably worse than prison, all for the privilege of earning 1600 euros per month (while being locked up in somebody's house in a foreign country, 1000 km from your family).

> Code coverage has absolutely nothing to do with code quality

This absolute is somewhat misplaced in my experience. Yes hitting 100% code coverage does not inherently make the code better, but it does force people to look up the tests that were there before and it often helps with providing some form of context.

"Code coverage is only loosely correlated with code quality" would be my take.
Agreed. I switched from an iPhone to a Pixel because the iPhone experience is claustrophobic (admittedly I switched from Android to iPhone before that for the much better and lengthy software Apple gives). If this means the iPhone is getting things similar to F-Droid and NewPipe I'd be happy to switch back.

The new iPads have an M1 chip with virtualization capabilities, but you wouldn't know it with the stuff Apple allows on it. Imagine how much better iPads would be if Apple couldn't block Linux VMs just because it doesn't suit them.
I think you’re underestimating how fourth powers work. If you want to charge a 10,000 pound hummer $1000/year to provide substantial disincentive then you end up charging a five axel semi trailer (75,000 pounds) $3,164,000/year. That obviously doesn’t work.

Blatantly ageist. Even if legislators entirely relied on their own understanding of technology to make policy decisions, it would not apply here— replace that e-mail with a letter, phone call, telegram, or any other sort of communication and you’ve got the same exact problem. Unfair sales tactics and shady long-term contractual obligations aren’t exactly a new problem. When you get a few more years under your belt, you’ll realize that the advantages afforded by a young person’s perspective can be valuable but are more ephemeral and superficial than those brought by experience and wisdom.
the crux of their argument is that not doing a math PhD == wasted talent.

Which is as silly as it sounds.

Further, there is this nugget to further undermine their own point:

Bluetooth is such a pain in the ass even as a techy. Most people probably just pair their iphones to their airpods and call it a day. But trying to use multiple bluetooth devices with each other (phones, laptops, ipads, connecting to headphones, speakers, and cars) is always a juggling act. Disconnect. Turn the headphones off. Sometimes forget the connection. Get out of range of the other device. Turn the headphones on. Turn bluetooth off. Turn it on.

Comments mention NFC pairing. That would be better in most cases.
I think you underestimate them. Off the top of my head:

1. EU bureaucrats are threatening one of the most successful business models ever.

2. Jealous EU tries to punish successful American tech companies as they can't compete with them in the market.

3. The EU attempts to lower the value of tech stock, threatening pensions of millions of Americans.

4. Apple will need to fire thousands if the malicious plan of EU bureaucrats succeeds.

Etc. etc.
Because we want a solution before 2050.
> Look at the comments telling you which files have been changed.

And you can make this even better by adding the diff that’s being committed with verbose mode (see `git commit --help`), so that you can scroll down and easily see exactly what’s going into the commit:

You can make it permanent so:

git config --global commit.verbose 1

I also recommend setting commit.cleanup = scissors as a related thing.

I love bluetooth. My mouse, my keyboard, my airpods, my other NC headphones, carplay, TV remote, smart home devices - so many of them working 99% of time just totally fine. Small glitches from time to time are small price to pay for the convenience my everyday tools bring to my life.
Surely the tests that reviewers do every time a new phone comes to market would be sufficient to demonstrate noticeable-but-small?
Conveniently ignoring the fact that roads have terrible capacity as a transport system and therefore many many many miles of terribly expensive road only exist to accommodate the space taken up by a comparatively small number of vehicles, with semi-trucks and other heavy vehicles often a minority.

Count the heavy vehicles: https://twitter.com/urbanthoughts11/status/11912952051876864...

Don't get me wrong, the tax system is setup as a massive subsidy to trucking on roads that should be eliminated so this stuff can move onto trains where it belongs for everything but the last mile, but a big part of the cost is also just the space and area consumed by it all.
