It doesn't "suggest" that at all. Perhaps changes in pedagogy were necessary in order to adapt to a changing world.

Education isn't like the naive "encoding/decoding" model of communication, where the subject matter is simply "transmitted" from teacher to students. Even if the subject matter remains stable over time, many other things do not: changes in the media of communication, signal interference (say, from the average classroom size drastically increasing over time), all kinds of changes in the teachers and students themselves, changes in society's expectations of what constitutes success or failure (e.g. rote learning is now widely seen as having many shortcomings), changes in what students actually need to move forward (a career in the trades may well require a much lower standard of understanding in the age of the pocket calculator), ... this list could go on and on. Teaching is not a "solved problem" like that.
Off topic, but this part reminded me of something.

>They offer financing, carrier-specific features like Wi-Fi calling and VoLTE, and even phone-specific features at times if you buy the phone through their stores.

What's going to happen when carriers shut down their 3g networks by the end of 2022[1]? VoLTE is mandatory if you want voice on 4g. If you don't have it, your phone drops down to 3g when on a call. Obviously that won't work if carriers shut down 2g/3g service.

Naming is hard, but please, do not repeat the mistake of many OSS project in the last 20 years calling each project by prefixing the name with the stack/environment involved.

Now a "trending" language can catch the attention, but tomorrow?.. maybe. So the value proposition and starting from it name should be different (if you want adoption).

For my use case, for a rewrite of jq I would expect one thing only: higher performance... show the numbers ;)
Houston, We Have a Problem (Part 1 of 3)
For complementary medical diets for the treatment of cancer the idea is to reduce inflammation in the microenvironment around the tumor. Most complementary medicine anti-cancer diets promote high anti-oxidant, low inflammation foods and supplement regimens which include antioxidants such as NAC.

Patients on such regimens (which also included traditional chemotherapy) generally showed significantly improved survival rates compared to the control which just had the chemotherapy.

E-mail should be the first thing you migrate, precisely because it is the key to every other service you rely on. If you're randomly banned from your E-mail service, you're pretty much screwed. E-mail is too important to let someone else host. Move it as close to your own control as your technical ability allows. Do it today, in fact, do it right now.

Err, email copies, backups, USB sticks, save-to-sync, ... There are lots of shared/safe alternatives when saving my data/work. Not having to have to sweat net lag, though, is a big win. And devices are pretty damn reliable unless you drop the things.

And even then, I have this phone thingie that has lots of storage - why can't I sync to that directly without 3rd-party involvement? This would address you "what if it crashed" by giving a second copy (or more if there's multiple people sitting near me).
Anti-trust laws, regulation on how to handle criminal activity on their platform (transfer detected pornography cases to law enforcement and allow them to decide what to do with the person and its related accounts. Google should not be handling something like this), and other privacy laws? I don't get why you tried to make this gotcha, this isn't a stretch by any imagination - the auto industry is incredibly regulated in the US and that's working well. Or just look at the privacy laws in the EU.
You won’t convince me to switch back to windows in a hurry, but I agree with all of your points entirely.

This is a big part of the problem, technically you have a recourse, but the cost for individuals is a barrier to justice. Organisations have a lot of freedom to act behind the cost to litigate.
Mine was one of the "600Hz sub field drive" models.

I am quite sensitive to flicker in general, though. I see it on DLPs, CFL bulbs and even a lot of LEDs that use PWM. For example, in my area a lot of the new tunnel LED lights have flicker in my peripheral vision, which can be a bit disorienting.

With the Viera, it was worse in a bright room (perhaps due to my pupils being smaller) so my solution was to try and keep the room dim when the TV was in use, but that wasn't always feasible.
What I mean when I say that music theory is a descriptive enterprise is quite literal: the research that professional music theorists do is designing theories to describe music we see and hear in the real world. So yes, composers (now and in the past) do learn music theory, and do write music with stylistic norms in mind, as well as adding their own spin on things. That work, in my reading, is not music theory, it's composition! The act of "inventing music theory" is something done by music theorists (writ large), not by people writing music.

To use your analogy: composers are inventing music in the same way that normal speakers invent language. I don't think I'd describe new variations on language as "inventing linguistics," though, as linguistics is the in-depth study of language (and as such, "inventing linguistics" is something done by linguists, not by language speakers). But language is not linguistics, in the same way that music is not music theory.
I think the love come from comparison for me. Among all the jobs that I have tried and known from people, mine is the most tolerable. So I love my job.

> Why does every web site default to aggressively paginate their information?

Because data retrieval costs money and resources. Unbounded API responses are a susceptible to denial-of-service. Well-architected APIs will always cap the number of results they return per-call.
It can be done with relative ease. There is a commercial tool somewhere that does it, because I've run across many PDF files that use a DjVu like structure for scanned books.

It won't be perfectly lossless, because the IW44 compression of the color layer will need to be recompressed as JPEG or JPEG2000. The JB2 mask layer can be losslessly recompressed as JBIG2 or CCITT G4 Fax.

> As another commenter said, the government records state that no US citizen died at all in Japan in June 2021. This is of course a bit ridiculous given that 50,000+ people live there and 10-12 people die per 1000 people per month in Japan. This means that around 500 US citizens should have died in Japan that month. Obviously, the US government doesn't have to account for literally all its citizens dying for any cause anywhere, just the important ones.

"Expected" numbers mean nothing: in the real world, unexpected things happen all the time. This is a fallacious argument reminiscent of https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_averages .

This is all wild speculation without evidence.
> your own deeply unexamined prior

It’s often a deeply examined prior. The people I know who are the most doubtful about software are the engineers with more than 20 years experience. They have spent most of their adult lives thinking about what software is, and isn’t, good for.
I agree. My parents and step-parents are all [retired] teachers, too, and nothing irritated them quite like the "BuT tHeY hAvE sUmMeRs OfF!" crap from people who have no idea what they're talking about. Trust me, we never went on kickass 3 month long summer family vacations. My parents worked their asses off throughout the summer, tying up loose ends from the previous year, working on lesson plans, training, and preparing for the next year.
I think he meant to say US android market. Apple and iPhones aren't mentioned once.
They're not the same thing. The Quran purports to be the direct revelation of God's word, as spoken by Muhammed. It's one work. The Bible is certainly more complex, as the compilation of a bunch of documents of different types and times, and it's 10x as long. I haven't read the full Quran yet, but I'm told it's much less self-contradictory. Even in just the 4 Gospels, people have debated for centuries now to reconcile them into a coherent timeline of Jesus's life. Both religions are built on a whole bunch more material, written and traditional.
HN automatically redoes the capitalization of post titles, and it's easy forget to check it after posting.
Whenever I try to use an Android phone I always go scurrying back to the iPhone 6S I have. It's just too complex and confusing to use IMO.
Anyway now Blu-ray for anime is tend to be a fan goods rather than practical media, while paperbook is still decent media for manga. Many people no longer have Blu-ray player equipment, and obviously not work for smartphone/tablet. Average people just watch anime by streaming subscription. Manga subscription is growing but not a major thing for popular mangas.
The "holy book" being infallible is mostly a problem with the religions whose gods are so pathetically weak they can't make mistakes, or learn new things.
Solid metals (and liquid metals) tend to have a characteristic bulk conductivity that can be reliably measured in a conventional way.

Then with things like wiring, the thicker the wire, the more current can be conducted through it, and the thinner the wire, the less current.

When it comes to gaseous metal, that stuff can be really thin.

Its conductivity might just drop low enough to be in the semi- category.
The money is largely not going to teacher salaries, classroom supplies, or to anything that affects "educational outcomes".

Sounds great on paper but my experience is that key-based indexing is broken on SOLR and likely other lucene engine DBs. If you are evaluating conditions on child objects inside a parent document, the child objects get split and stored as a separate document that is joined… and if that child document is in a different block/file on disk, then it won’t necessarily be inside the range being scanned, and so you will be missing some results that meet your logical criteria.

Possibly just an implementation error in the BlockJoinParser but it did not occur with numeric pagination.

In order to work with that, you need to “flatten” your json, like with the @JsonUnwrapped annotation, and some structures (like arrays) may become problematic and/or require significant lexical mapping of queries to the dataset.
There really isn’t anything comparable and that includes the publications by ACM and IEEE. The magazines one finds on the shelf at the local bookstore aren’t worth the expense. The same is true of the majority of the programming books aimed at today’s programmer. Most books and magazines are shallow and read like they were written by the marketing departments of Microsoft, et al. Publications, like Code, Wired, and the rest aren’t vaguely comparable to Byte or DDJ. When I was interviewing programmer candidates and asked what they were reading, they lost points for most of the common books on the shelf. For every CLRS, Knuth, Gang of Four, DDIA, or even Fowler or Booch/Rumbaugh earlier, there are dozens, if not 100s, of books that can best be described as doorstops and a web search makes more sense.

The biggest problem with Play store is that many apps are geographically restricted. That includes banking and public transport apps. Some apps are restricted without even the knowledge of the developer. Most of those apps have no good reason at all to be restricted like that. Such apps often cannot be accessed through Aurora. Sadly, there are no laws or provisions to challenge such unethical tactics. Using Google's services is like living with a manipulative and abusive partner.

The problem vanishes—assuming the speaker has plenty of free mental capacity to keep track of the audience (which is also small enough to keep track of, ≤ 15 people or so if meeting in person).

If I am lecturing on a familliar subject with 1:1 or greater preparation time : lecture time ratio, maybe I do.

If, on the other hand, I’m retelling a paper I’ve banged my head against for the last couple of days and probably still don’t get a good part of, then sorry—I’m barely holding on here, I have to sort dependencies and not miss anything and remember to bring attention onto subtle points or the whole thing will apart and I have to backtrack and lose everyone because nobody can apply a verbal diff that goes half an hour back.

Again, I’m so sorry, but I don’t have the brain time to process your visual cues. Wait for the nearest syntactic boundary and shout over me. Please. I can suspend my flow—I can’t work out of it.

(From the other end, the problem vanishes assuming I’m either taking prodigious notes or already know half of what you’re saying, because people only poll for nonverbal interrupt requests once per logical point, so 2—7 minutes, and at best I’ll forget half of what I wanted to ask, at worst you lost me at the very beginning and you’ll have to spend the 5 minutes all over again, in addition to the two or so minutes it’s going to take us to negotiate an understanding of the question. And how do I deal with a presenter who mistook my simple question for a similarly-sounding advanced question? Interrupt their long advanced explanation?.. Right.)
Apple has personalized (i.e. targeted) ads in the app store, no?
Secret talks? Conspiracy. Between two market leaders. To settle their differences and thereby reduce direct competition. I understand completely why this was kept quiet.

I worked 24 hours a week for a few years for an IT service company. Before I switched to the 24 hour weeks, I was managing the software division and was getting burned out.

I told my boss I would be putting in my resignation. He asked if there was anything he could to do keep me on. I asked to move back to a development role with 24 hour weeks of three contiguous days. My boss agreed.

The schedule was great, but I eventually quit because I started a new business and wanted to focus all my time on that.
I honestly don’t follow. Doesn’t paying more money or reducing class size (by hiring more teachers) directly imply the existing crop of teachers can’t handle the job? Or are you saying we pay the exact same people more money? And reduce class sizes how? Requiring students take fewer classes?
self-employment is the best.
We had a similar practice here in Rugby https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Hopoate

"During a 2001 game with the North Queensland Cowboys, Hopoate inserted fingers in three players' backsides and anuses. The first incident occurred during the seventh minute of play. The matter was referred to the rugby league judiciary on 28 March. Hopoate was suspended for 12 weeks for what one commissioner described as "disgusting, violent, offensive behaviour""
Yeah but is it worth the hundreds of thousands or possibly millions that the tax payers had to pay for that to be possible for him? My answer is a firm no. It’s not cruel, you have to draw the line somewhere. I could say it’s cruel I can’t live wherever I want and spend my days as I please but we can all agree it isn’t.

>What kind of options are you testing for user controls? Is the core of the tech just frequency boosts or is there fancy stuff in there as well, feedback loops or trying to interpret the sound somehow?

I used EarMachine [ https://apps.apple.com/us/app/earmachine/id732177210 ] with custom hardware in my studies. The amplification controls consist of two touchscreen wheels, one which increases the gain (with a higher rate of increase in high frequencies than in the low frequencies) and one which acts as a spectral tilt. There is a complex mapping from the two wheels to the gain, but that's the simplification. It's just traditional non-linear amplification that is applied to the input signal.

Industry labs are privately exploring all sorts of things, but they won't share publicly until their products are ready for market. The NIH has been funding the development of "open master hearing aids/simulators" to promote research into new signal processing strategies, and start-ups are pursuing new delivery models. A lot could change in just the next 2 years.

>Do you know how people feel about their hearing aids?

Every so often some market research data is published under the name MarkeTrak [ https://betterhearing.org/policy-research/marketrak/ ]. This summary is most relevant [ https://www.audiologyonline.com/articles/20q-understanding-t... ]. About 2/3rds of people who could benefit from hearing aids do not own/use them. There are a lot of reasons for that, and actual satisfaction with hearing aids is only a part. In the UK where there's no financial barrier to getting hearing aids for the vast majority of people, hearing aid adoption rates are low. Culture, social stigma, and even personality plays a huge role in how people feel about hearing aids. That's the background for this: Most hearing aid owners are satisfied. People who have hearing aids older than 6 years tend to be less satisfied than people who have new hearing aids.

>Where do you see the industry going in 5-10 years?

Broadly speaking, I expect to see a lot of experimentation and diversity in products and service delivery models. Using the principle of "the more things change, the more things stay the same", I would predict that we will see an increased focus on products and delivery models that feature greater personalization and greater integration with consumer electronics. I think we're gonna see an attempt to leverage more and different sensors on the body to modify and control device output. I think we might see some breakthroughs on noise reduction algorithms, but in the end they won't prove as useful as we'd hoped. I think Zuckerberg wants to sell a VR headset to every grandparent and great-grandparent.

Offline-first forces you to reconsider your design / architecture.

Every 401k or other investment place I've seen allows either taking dividends or reinvesting them. I've never one seen a fund that picks only divide free or divided providing stocks as a choice.

And every big fund also provides all sorts of general index funds, which certainly contain both. And individual stocks themselves decide to pay dividends or not, and routinely change so.

I don't think your distinction is at all a relevant factor in these funds to nearly any end buyer.

Please provide a citation as to why you think your claim is true.
I've been getting mine as a large-ish (16GiB) TGZ type file for many years.
In addition, backing up the services isn't that costly these days. Backblaze provides massive storage space at cheap rates and integrates well with encrypted backup software like Duplicity, Borg or Restic. Recovery from failure is usually a breeze with these software.
What a great coverage of the truth. Also though, just because the lens is bitter- "these are the real welfare queens"- doesn't mean either are necessarily undeserving. Rather than being upset at governmental business socialism, I just wish it were a bit (a lot) better distributed. This is a pretty niche example, but wouldn't it be so great if we could figure out ways, for example, to make the CHIPS Act target hundreds or thousands of upstarts? The article's own example of National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) is another solid example, that helped spawn industries & areas. Government can be a force for dynamic change, to help get things spawning, but it has to resist the sway of the very big.

It's also just so heartbreaking how un-selling government/mutual-aid/societalism is so popular. Welfare Queens is such a stark reminder of how easy & cheap hate is to sell.
I personally don't think ridicule is ever necessary or appropriate. Even if it results in compliance or submission in the moment, it's very likely to produce resentment. In an organization, it produces a culture of fear, rather than curiosity and initiative.
If you want to use continue using old tech with new tech, you'll have to get used to using an adapter.

I don't think there's conclusive evidence one way or the other. Someone claiming to be Near claimed to be committing suicide, and someone claiming to know Near claimed to have confirmation. No further evidence has surfaced. Personally I'm inclined to believe it (his last tweet still haunts me), but because an entire web forum is being accused of being responsible for it, it bears getting to the truth, at some point.
