IMO this can go a bit more nuanced for better leverage than just general-ambition-leverage.

It's also the type & direction of ambition that matters, in combination with the child's personal direction of ambition x scaling-influence of the parent's ambition-direction.

A good example of direction would be inward vs. outward. Go make a splash in society! Just DO it!!! Outward-focused, a little bit more shallow at times because it's action & change that matters.

vs.

Look, it feels great to really go to work on yourself, become somebody you can be proud of based on how you respond to what life throws AT you. Inward-focused, a little bit more creepy at times because it's depth and development that matters.

Object focus vs. subject focus.

Then modify each by various aspects. Creativity, social roles, capacity for organization, health.

So just using that as an example, you have 8 types of ambition to refer to. Parents will then be caught generally focusing on one of those 8 types more than others IMO. It is usually their personal area of focus and strength.

If they don't see anything worrying in that ONE area they will generally not care too much--the kid will be alright in their eyes. When you meet people who are really similar to you in terms of strengths and gifts, you tend to breeze right by them, without noticing much.

Why would it need to be used in Hubble? We don't even know if these satellites are KH-11s. They might be some other design that is capable of fulfilling a NASA mission. The point is that Hubble is suspected to be based on a spy satellite so there is potential technology transfer. Maybe these are just useful as parts.

Fun game! Can I suggest adding a licence file to Github so people know what they can do with the repo.
It's hard to tell what the 12Mb of sequence they are calling "other" is. It could be bacterial, or a decoy contig that is used to capture low-quality reads. Sometimes you'll see reference sequences also include things like EBV. Or it could be the ALT assemblies that represent different ways of putting together the reference (like HLA differences).

The fact that you got 39X raw reads is pretty good.

Also, it is usually called hg38, not hs38... I'm not sure where that came from. If you want to be super accurate, you could also use GRCh38, but there are sometimes subtle differences between the two.

Those lessons on Azure are fairly generally applicable. A lot of the services seem to be lacking/overkill somehow, in that either a service is too basic to be useful, or it's been needlessly specialised to fit a (probably brief and now outdated) marketing requirement.
I'm not sure he's precisely correct, but Hubble's primary mirror was changed from 3 meters to 2.4 meters, which happened to be the same size as the primary mirrors for the KH-11 KENNEN series of spy satellites. The book Power To Explore - History of Marshall Space Flight Center 1960-1990 says of the decision to change the mirror:

> "In addition, changing to a 2.4-meter mirror would lessen fabrication costs by using manufacturing technologies developed for military spy satellites."

Probably because founders tend to have strong influence over a company and tend to have their share of personal fans and supporters among the userbase. So they try to avoid alienating them by pretending that they still get along.

Like when Carl Pei left OnePlus, we all knew it would go to shit once Oppo took over but they kept up the pretense for a while to protect the brand before they started undermining it.

For the 'advisor' there's probably a financial arrangement to this to keep them quiet and from shoveling up dirt in the media. It's hard to just give someone money like that so again a fake role comes in handy.

Eh, your results look perfectly fine, especially for a budget sequencing run. Keep in mind there are a lot of repetitive DNA sequences that don't map well (search "mappability track" for more info). Depending on the reference they used, these may even be masked out and thus no alignment can even be attempted.
> But the idea of the “Austin Metro” operating there, even fifty years from now?

Might be worth sharing that in 2020 Austin voters approved via ballot referendum (58% to 42%) what's likely to be the largest expansion of public transit this decade. It authorized $7.1 billion in initial bond funds and established a dedicated sales tax to establish ongoing funding for 4 light rail lines, 1 subway, a dedicated BRT system, and a complete transformation of their public transit system.

https://projectconnect.com/

The initial phase itself is already deep into the design and bid stage, groundbreaking should happen in the next couple years.

https://projectconnect.com/docs/librariesprovider2/maps/pcon...

Even the state government of Texas gave its permission to tunnel under a portion of what is state-owned land for the subway for a 99-year annual lease of $1, which some Austin advocates originally feared would be leverage that the state legislature would try to use to hold up the project.
Good idea! I'm already thinking of how to implement...

I think the idea behind no-blame culture is that a single person shouldn't be able to cause a massive incident on their own (assuming no malice), so finding a victim to put the blame on isn't helpful anyway. Also, if you start blaming people, everyone will go in permanent cover-my-ass-mode and this will usually just lead to some poor junior, who couldn't play the game yet, getting the full blow.

Of course, letting people run rampant and acting everything is fine is not great, but there's a good chance it might be an organizational problem and, if not, a HR problem (which is not necessarily related to a specific incident).
I really want to agree -- I really want a truck like this in the USA, but unfortunately I need to disagree simply because it is not street legal.

I have an old 2001 beater truck I use for the purpose now, but I can't replace it with this EV because it's not street legal. I live in a rural area, but luckily I can drive 2 miles to a dump (transfer station) and 5 miles to a place with bulk mulch, soil, gravel, etc...

But I can't possibly get to either without going on state roads... And I can't drop my gas truck and replace it with an EV for $7k if it would not be legally usable.

I can't see many farms that could use this. For the same reason -- I certainly don't want to use my truck to get serval buckets of mulch, just to shovel it into the EV, then to shovel it out at the final destination.

If the gov lets me slap "farm use" tags on this, and that's all is needed... Okay, I'm interested.. but I think there's usually more requirements

oh I am absolutely not blaming anyone! The free market is an efficient machine in this case. It simply means that there is room for innovation in those industries like healthcare and banking. We have already started to see this innovation with companies like One Medical and Square.
CO2 gets 73% of its mass from the oxygen it uses for combustion and not from the carbon in the gas (which is something like 85% of the weight of gas). So take that 133lbs multiply by 0.85 and divide by 0.27 and you get 356lbs or 71lbs per 100 miles as a rough back of the envelope calculation. Pretty close to the 30kg (66lbs) listed by the parent.

> Everyone wants to do this. The question is why you and why now? Are you willing to take the leap of faith to see the project to the next step? Will you quit a cozy paycheck to work through the few bugs and get users on the platform?

I created the core, the technology, it works and now it's time to expand the community. 10 years ago I left my job to do this project. Initially, I did not want to take investments, because I needed to figure out what it was (I'm a techie) and I thought that I could complete the project in 3 years maximum. In 2014, external circumstances such as the war changed my plans and my expenses increased exponentially, so I had to spend a lot of time at work. 2 months ago I left my last job and was able to fix most of the bugs to show the project to the public, but the time is up and now the choice is either to take the job again, which will mean a downtime in the project, or to find a donation / investment "willing to take the leap of faith to see the project to the next step" and give investors and developers an opportunity to earn money and get a fan.

> the violence directed towards the French by the various coalitions arrayed against it at that time

I’m not extremely deeply familiar with the history and consequences of the French Revolution, but I recall that it was the French who started the War of the First Coalition.

As an ironic aside, it looks like the fellow who commissioned La Marseillaise lost his head to the Reign of Terror.

> contrast that to the dueling German anthem in the film, which is a rather explicitly anti-French anthem

Die Wacht am Rhein? The lyrics on Wikipedia don’t mention the French at all so far as I can tell. They claim that ‘Frenchman’ is a literal translation of ‘Welscher,’ but I think the literal translation is ‘foreigner.’
Does it still require a pipettor, or could it work with just a transfer pipet? Their field kit should probably be as minimal as it could be.

Last I looked into it, it was a minimal set of extra equipment -- votexer, centrifuge, etc... nothing unusual for a bio lab. And even most of that could be handled with a good snap of the wrist, if you weren't trying to be super precise.

I think the idea behind no-blame is that there are basically three ways that an outage could be the fault of an individual: maliciousness, incompetence, or bad process. In the first two cases, the individual should be fired, and in the third case, blaming the individual is counterproductive as it not only doesn't do anything to mitigate the issue but also distracts from the real cause. The only gray area I can think of is where it's not not clear from a single incident whether an individual is actually incompetent or if they're "borderline competent" (maybe more competent at other aspects of the job role and it's a balance to figure out if they're net value is worth keeping around), but in that case, I think that's also probably better to be dealt with at the management level and keep out of the root cause analysis.

> MO, we don't have to name names, but Root Cause Analysis should include the decision tree that the primary motivator chose.

I definitely agree with this! I actually have seen cases where people have asked for revisions to a root cause analysis not due to a lack of naming individuals but a lack of sufficient explanation for what the anonymous individual actually did to cause the outage, which I think is fair feedback to give.

> No blame culture also hampers a lot of insider-threat analysis.

Yeah, if no-blame culture is being used as a shield for maliciousness or incompetence, I think that could have a harmful effect on things. I guess I always just interpreted "no-blame" as actually meaning "no blame for honest mistakes", but I guess that's too long to be catchy.
That.... seems like the worst approach?

> It uses byte strings instead of UTF-8 strings. In my opinion, that’s not an optimization, that’s changing the problem. Depending on the question you’re asking, only one of the two can be correct.

No, that's very wrong. ripgrep has rich Unicode support for example, but represents file contents as byte strings. UTF-8 strings vs byte strings is an implementation detail.

I think you might benefit from reading the "bonus" Rust submission: https://github.com/benhoyt/countwords/blob/8553c8f600c40a462...

This is interesting. Of course, it all depends on the execution. I maintain a literary diary, which I flag at the time of writing if I find the writing merited, and that I subsequently brush up and post months, sometimes years later. For something like the July 4th shooting in Highland Park, Illinois, which is where I live, I recorded my feelings immediately, but I know they will take a considerable period of time to write about adequately. It is a very helpful process, and I think the rhetorical import of a slower process is compelling.

For some applications, plastic fills that role very well. A lot of stuff would probably be made with plastic, and be just as durable, if we didn't have this "Stuff should feel substantial" design mindset.

It's amazing how there's such a strong preference for things with size and weight, and how plastic is seen as cheap trash rather than an engineering marvel.

Is the point to demonstrate how trivial some stories end up being three months later? Or... I'm not sure I get the purpose of covering the introduction of the Omicron variant of COVID-19 three months after it has started killing people.
Most of the objection to allowing someone to sterilize themself (either from doctors of this thread) is centered around the potential for regret later. But guarding people from regret is nanny-state BS. People regret tattoos, people regret having kids, people regret getting married, people regret quitting jobs and all kinds of irreversible decisions, and unless you're hurting someone else society rightly defaults to letting them decide for themselves.
Btw, the second Gamers Nexus Arc video about tear reduction and frame graphs was awesome - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ENCV4xUjj0.

It's okay that those cards are reviewed according to their current state. They are pretty bad. But that doesn't mean the second or third generation of those cards has to be bad, when they remove the resizable bar requirement (so they can be used in older systems) and improve the drivers. DXVK would be a great route, but I doubt Intel can push this on a driver level - it would be more of a Steam or Windows thing.

I assume those cards will be a great option for Linux systems soon, where DXVK is the default anyway. It's good to have an alternative to AMD.
I have only one child, and she's 17 now. Basically, you take your cues from the kid on how they want to play (up to a point). She wanted me to make up stories for her when she was little, so I did that. She also would play "coffeeshop" or "train", where she ran things and my wife and I were the customers. Basically, some kids really want the adults to play, some aren't as into that, and that's ok. So I think it's entirely possible that your niece and nephew look for something different from their uncle/aunt than from their mom/dad. They'll let you know.
It is actually the opposite of imploding. Biases like this to support a worldview are not helpful.
Possibly more key:

"In the Rogers network, one IP routing manufacturer uses a design that limits the number of routes that are presented by the Distribution Routers to the core routers. The other IP routing vendor relies on controls at its core routers. The impact of these differences in equipment design and protocols are at the heart of the outage that Rogers experienced."

I read this as: we were halfway through a big project to replace 6509s with new Juniper switches but that takes a few years, so in the meantime we sometimes make configuration changes to each router that have different behaviors.

Astronomers may just understand that the problem exists: [the ITU group’s chairman] says he needs more input from people who use universal time. “Many people don't even know that leap seconds exist,”

The decision to ignore leap seconds reminds of the decision by Russian and some other orthodox churches to ignore changes introduced by Gregorian calendar. The decision saved them some internal political problems, like the need to decide which saints will have their celebrations missing, but now the Orthodox Christmas is moving to summer with the speed of about 1 day per 100 years. Eventually somebody will have to deal with this, but not now - there’s a lot of time - same thinking.

Meanwhile, if you leave in a Gregorian country you can have your Christmas tree for free on Orthodox December 12th…
