ACTIVE doesn't have much to show for it, does it? Effect sizes are small, and some are almost absent, while there are differences in other factors between the groups with the same magnitude (drinking, cholesterol, diabetes, subject withdrawal, etc.). The calculation of the effect size is also dubious: it assumes the changes are linear and independent of the starting position, and the baseline is not within the group, although I can't see an easy way to get an objective one either.

As to the statistics: it's p-values all over, with all of the associated problems. The p-value for article [4] gets just below the 0.05 mark, but only for speed training. They also do two other comparisons, which are nowhere near significant. That is really suspicious, and there's no correction for multiple comparisons.

All in all, this short inspection doesn't convince me the OP article has it wrong.

This baffles me, both gravity and electromagnetic forces drop off with increasing distance. Anyone familiar with the theoretical basis for this? I assume this has really weird consequences for unification of all forces. I believe when I was studying physics they said that strong and electromagnetic were very similar (at short distances).
On Linux you can just use "SimpleScreenRecorder". It allows recording video of a single window (with audio from mic). I use it at work to create demos. My video demos are better than most others' because the video does not contain the whole screen (unlike many other demos) and my videos are accompanied by audio narration so demo can be watched independently later. Mac users often ask me how I create my demo videos.

They can also be async functions that process data independently. Whereas templates are commonly just passed in data from the controller.

The sad fact is that humans can never be happy for any length of time.

It is how our brains are wired and a result of evolution. Even if a person lived in a paradise and had all their needs and wants provided; one of two things will occur - Either that person becomes bored or they wonder 'hmmm, I wonder if x,y or z could be better in some way?' and then trying to improve on perfection.

The issue is the delta-time: there is only a competitive advantage to resale value once the repairable cars have hit the secondary market and start needing repairs. Then you're talking 7-10 years.

It'd be nice - even without excellent, compelling arguments like this one - if we relegated cars to being something you hire when you need, displacing them with bicycles and public transport. I guess CCC being from Germany, they've already experienced how good this can be.
I didn't watch the whole thing, but did she mention electric bikes? IMO, Electric cars, or cars in general, are just fine. We just did a family road-trip around Denmark with our Ioniq 5 and it's absolutely perfect for that. The thing is, we should be renting them when we need them, and use bikes more the rest of the time. Electric bikes are quickly becoming a viable alternative to cars in many bike-friendly cities, and we're seeing an explosion in the choices of electric cargo bikes.

Not Just Bikes has an excellent new video on this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQhzEnWCgHA

I rode my electric bike to work today in fact. Instead of our EV, ironically. But our family uses only one car at least.

We don't necessarily need simpler cars, we need better electric bikes. Or electric motorbikes/scooters. And better public transportation.

Something like this would be a nice option for some usecases: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPyIwY2hJ_A

GetAround is making renting cars more viable too. We do actually have a second car now, but I've been renting the old one out until we're ready to sell it and until we're sure we can handle two kids in kindergarten without it. It's been way more popular than I anticipated.

There are multiple public bypasses for SafetyNet. Many 3rd party roms provide them out-of-the-box. Granted, Apple's attestation is bypassable as well.

Furthermore, others mentioned that a large portion of SMS-spam originates from the FluBot infected Android devices. Well, the only reason FluBot does not infect iPhones is laziness - it is perfectly doable at scale using custom configuration profiles.

>Just try learning a foreign language by reading children's books

People often trot this strategy out like it's a good idea because children's books are "simple". Have you read children's books? The language in them is actually typically very weird and playful, the situations presented are often strange and non-sensical, and to that end they're not actually all that useful to a foreign language learner as a good starting point at all.
Most people seemed to be fine with using the app, but it became apparent quite early on that it was useless.

Given how hard-headed they were about not wanting to use Apple and Google's exposure notifications API, I'm not surprised it's taken them this long to decommission the app. The recent change of government might have hastened its demise.
It also not reasonable because a lot of countries, also in europe, do not have RCS support on their networks.
Or the right version of RCS.
This is mostly preaching to the choir. Around here we’ve long known EVs aren’t everything they’re made out to be, and for a vast majority of use cases ICE vehicles are far better and more reliable. Even from an environmental standpoint, the output from low emission vehicles these days is mild, and better than firing up dirty power plants to charge electric vehicles en mass.
It doesn't. I'm curious to hear how withinboredom arrived at that conclusion.
The market itself can fix it too - remember how online music consumption switched from DRM-infected files to "unencumbered" MP3 (or similar) downloads? Of course that was soon eclipsed by streaming, but even today you can still buy an album digitally and use it for as long as you like on as many devices as you like.

I think this is only true for a language like Python, or TypeScript, where types are second class citizens…

Isn't it standard practice to give the X button on ads a near-impossible-to-tap hitbox?

I'm amazed there's still so much money in mobile ads, as the games/apps that use them have become so obnoxious that I've got no desire to go near them any more.

It's moved on from 'annoying by somewhat honest' ads, to completely fake gameplay footage, and ads for real-money gambling in games that kids may be playing.

And the model of having thousands of short-lived/unprofitable games pushing ever more players towards the same few aggressively-monetised megahits doesn't seem like it should be sustainable.

Actually, there is a market position here, for somebody willing to venture. A chain of "bomb" defusers, who take the product, replace or remove the breakable components, add a modular bus and the ability to add other open source components - then you get a "forever" product. As long as the product works, you pay a small suscription per month.

Is catalysis always symmetric? Or do some catalysts only work in one direction?

I imagine one that splits a molecule could work only or mostly in the one direction, if to go the other way would require both constituent parts to come together at the same time. But that is an example favoring entropy.

What would one that favors assembling molecules look like? A ribosome seems like the extreme example; those don't disassemble proteins. But is a much simpler example very unlikely?
Agree on both points. (There's a perfectly good reason for EAs with a computer science skillset to want to work in AI with a focus on safety; it's a well compensated industry where they can probably solve important real world problems more reliably than AI researchers less concerned about the ethical implications of what they do even without any sort of singularity, it just the movement seems to have invested a lot more in talking about longtermism than anything else lately, and Yudowksy's always had some very... individual lines of reasoning)
Perhaps, but that would be an indirect consequence.

Speaking as an end user, I agree with the premise, but there's an even more severe case where no technical information is given at all, making the problem impossible to either Google or even report.

Show HN: Genti Audio – Stories and podcasts in African languages
Hi all,
Eke here, co-founder of Genti Audio. Genti Audio is a mobile app for streaming and downloading Africa-focused audiobooks, stories, and podcasts in regional and local African languages.

In September 2021, my sister and I sat down to work on an audio show exploring Nigeria’s cultural and linguistic diversity. As we began to put the show together, we realized that our target audience- Nigerians and Africans in both urban and rural areas, were not heavily present on any of the major audio platforms for this type of content. Recognizing this, we decided to first fix this distribution gap, and so the idea for Genti was born.

From just an idea, we began pooling resources and soon started developing our beta app. And after months of hard work building, scouring for content, and raising funds from supportive friends and family, we are very excited to announce the launch of our mobile app. We will continue to improve the app and roll out more features over the next 4 months. Download the App now on Google Play or the Apple App Store and start listening!

At Genti, our mission is to amplify African stories and voices to entertain, educate, and enrich lives. In line with our mission, we’ll spend the next 3 - 6 months getting the best entertaining and educative African audio content out there and curating for our users. We also believe that for every African story told there are hundreds waiting to be told, and that’s why we’ve begun working on developing engaging original content available exclusively on our platform. Genti is committed to playing a vital role in developing and deepening audio storytelling on the continent.

To download the app, visit the Genti website, or download directly from Google Play and the Apple App store and start listening!

If you’ve got a podcast, audiobook, or story you’d like to upload on Genti, please send an email to ojiugo@gentimedia.com and we’ll be in touch. We’d also love to get feedback from you on your experience with the Genti App.

Long term roadmap, along with the Framework tractor…
Yes, but are they as fastest as possible?

Take Ruby. One of the most common improvements you do as Rails developer to a Rails web app is adding `oj` gem, which replaces the default JSON ser/deser with a more performant one. But it doesn't come by default with Rails. Can you guess how many Rails web apps performing JSON ser/deser don't use it? I'd be curious about that.

Moreover, it's really hard to find a presenter library oriented to performance. There are wonderful DSLs, but none of them seems optimized to speed, IMHO.
Just like few others here, I wanted keyboard shortcuts so I just hacked it quickly. Will break if DOM classes change, but author should implement something better.

Cool game.

const buttons = Array.from(document.querySelector('.mt-16.flex.items-center.justify-between.w-72.h-12.px-2').querySelectorAll('div')).filter(el => el.className === '');
buttons[directions[direction]].click();
}

document.addEventListener('keydown', (ev) => {
switch (ev.key) {
case 'ArrowLeft':
rotate('counterclockwise');
break;
case 'ArrowRight':
rotate('clockwise');
break;
}
});

Many people set the strat bridge to an end position so it doesn't float and string gauge or tuning change doesn't cause so many issues. I never use the whammy bar but like the tone, the microphone setup and the contour body.
> Tech people sometimes need to be a bit more humble.

Not sometimes but very often IMHO and not only a bit but a huge amount of humbleness is needed.
For me it's like watching a slowly unfolding car crash. Opencl for all it's flaws is the only compute API that is open, yeah oke Vulkan compute exist as well. All of them using proprietary CUDA has already bitten them in the ass many times. Yet there is nothing beeing done to remove CUDA from the stack at all. Quite the opposite in fact.
It really does seem that this bid will be tying two sinking ships together. Whether that helps them float, I don't know.
But it stays at a primitive Mark & Sweep collector, not the more advanced Cheney compacting, copying, half-space collector. It doesn't even mention how bad Mark & Sweep is, esp. for larger heaps.

Some of these are just safety-by-default things. For example, IO in Julia is thread-safe by default, which I think is a good idea because safety-first programming is good for say throwing `print` into a threaded loop written in the REPL. Here for example, https://github.com/aaronang/stl-benchmark/pull/3, was a case where Julia saw a performance hit from C++ and I was curious and tracked it down to this locking-by-default behavior. I'm not sure of a better way of handling it: the C/C++ behavior of not locking by default would make doing things correctly simply would be very hard to use (and is very hard in those languages).

Though I agree parsers haven't gotten much love in Julia. That said, this repo is saying it's for implementing NumPy extensions, and I don't think NumPy has many parsers it's using.
No. I'm talking about recording what they actually observe. Even if it's "I heard a sound like zzzt at 2:00pm that lasted for 3 minutes" or keeping a log of Geiger counter data. Lots of notes like that would end up revealing some kind of consistent picture. But saying "I'm being targeted by groups of people using radiological weapons" is just making things up. You can't know that much detail.
"At some point", but how much? I believe it is up to modeling skills

Anyway - Schema slows development as hell, you need to maintain mapper layer between domain models and db models unless you model your system with anemic model mixed with tech stuff(db), but it is mess

Simply put, the biggest difference is that gluons, the interaction particles of the strong force can in contrast to photos, which mediate the electromagnetic force, interact with each other. That gives rise to a lot of strange phenomena, such as the long-distance behaviour of the strong force.
To understand the strong force coupling look up the concept of asymptotic freedom.

This running of the coupling constant would in principle allow unification with the electroweak force in most theories e.g. supersymmetry - we just have not worked out the exact framework.
The answer can be found in this very thread:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32400786
It is mostly to do with color. If something is not a color singlet, gluons attach to it. Trying to separate the two quarks of a meson it is thought that a tube of gluons forms between them of which the energy is linear in the length of the tube. Since force is the derivative of energy, this leads to a constant force.
Well, that makes sense but sounds like I would spend much more time than necessary for many packages. If that would be my full-time job, I guess it would work, but I just need to install something and move on to other things. Some packages install thousands of lines of yaml. I guess I would need more than one day to grok it. Installing it with helm is easy and it usually works.

Something simple like GitLab probably would be impossible to understand for a simple person.
