> men appear to be far more selective than women are

It's unclear what you mean by more selective. If you're an average woman, you get more inbound interest than an average man. The tricky statistical massaging you're doing amounts to "well men are even more open-minded when it comes to more attractive woman." But that doesn't make sense: if a man has sent you a message, does it suddenly become half a message if he then messages someone else? You're penalizing men on open-mindedness for messaging more women.

That said, the blog post is weirdly presented and its graphs a bit misleading because of the skewed distributions. What would be most useful is comparing the median number of messages received by men and the median number of messages received by women (or best of all calculating the Gini indices of the respective distributions), instead of bothering to use the star ratings at all.

ETA:

> Divide the all raw numbers by 3.5, the rates will stay the same.

You're misunderstanding the data. It's not that men collectively send 3.5/4.5 of the messages; it's that each individual man sends 3.5 times as many messages as an individual woman. I.e. it already corrects for there being more men on the app. If men comprise 2/3 of users on dating apps, that means that 87.5% of all first messages are sent by men.

The nine euro tickets weren't an environmental policy. The environmental effect is a bonus.
This kind if title is rich coming from the fear mongering media. Particularly as the story right above this in the most popular stories section is "America’s Fall Booster Plan Has a Fatal Paradox"
Side fact, not really criticism: When I see abbreviations for US states, my brain starts inserting anything that comes to mind and is a location. In this case:

"BC? British Columbia? NS? New Jersey, no that's not with an 's' ... Arg, no idea!"

It is not mandatory for me to understand all the abbreviations. Just that sometimes I would like to understand more, without having to guess states.

>that puts their bare cost at close to $10.13 per user per month, not including salaries and other operating costs.//

You're saying it costs then 1⅛ cents per search excluding wages and other operating costs.

That seems like they must be vastly over-paying for something? What does that money pay for and who is paying the wages+operational costs?

Edit: this comment [0] indicates every search is actually 3 searches, two at commercial resale rates (Google, Bing) and one against their own index; that probably explains it.

> If such change to Individual plans is to occur, we plan to grandfather-in all early adopters (meaning all current and future paid customers, up until this change) allowing them to keep their existing subscription price as long as they don’t cancel it.
I stand corrected. However, the question "What grounding principles must I assume in order to decide which of these categories I'm a part of?" has criteria WW outlines in "40 Differences in Treatment Between a Sub5, Normie & Chad." The theory isn't extremely rigorous and well defined.
How about the supply chain that would move equipment and labor to and from the moon? How about the debris this would leave behind around both bodies? How long can this be done before the Earth's environment is affected? Will our descendants stop drilling when problems begin? Will they still continue long after the damage has become visible?

Do you have any idea how many problems were created by good intentions?

This is silly. Oberlin doesn't have a choice. They will appeal as far as they can appeal, and then they will pay.
It may not be as much of a factor at bicycle speeds, but I've read that heavy helmets can dramatically increase whiplash in things like motorsport. The increased mass on your head means higher forces trying to rip it off. Obviously the other benefits of real helmets outweigh that issue, but I'd imagine a concrete helmet with very poor shock absorption and very high mass would not fair so well.
> It seems well managed.

I agree entirely. I think my point had been lost, which was merely speculation on what else beyond fraud would delay release of a screwdriver for 3 years.
No, at least mine is not.
> If the US can put 40% of its working populace into some lower-rights having class, like strip their citizenship, we would have a comparable public housing tax base.

The US is already working on this, albeit unintentionally.

Undocumented immigrants were at 3.3% of the population in 2016 and the numbers have absolutely exploded since the beginning of the Biden administration, with 2 million apprehensions so far for in 2022 [0]. The cumulative effect of this over just a single term of the Biden administration will completely reshape the demographics of most of the border states (and most major cities of the country), as the majority of immigrants are arriving with very little means, extremely limited ability to speak English, and will be mostly restricted from accessing the US financial system without legal residence status, hobbling them financially and forcing them into informal work arrangements.

You understood the intent, communication occurred. Just leave it at that.

he/she has been a thing since at least the 90's.
Like others have said, it's just people who want that kind of thing don't do cards any more, they do external "audio interfaces".

I have a Scarlett attached to the underside of my desk with a pair of Sennheiser HD600 headphones and a Monoprice Stage Right condenser mic on a desk stand.

I'm guessing the inner-PC card space has a bit too much of a EM noise problem for people who care about quality higher than integrated sound can provide (which is pretty good these days anyway) and external devices have room for the inputs people actually want.
Burn it all down. Just stop using JavaScript.
Oberlin's general politics makes it all the more surprising that they're represented by none other than Congressman Jim Jordan.
I think it is more than just “inconvenient”.

Government control can destroy value on a pretty massive scale, see Venezuela.

As an aside, the hardware/driver support for sound cards is terrible on modern Windows.

There's this trusty Creative Audigy Rx that I nabbed from a closing down sale at an electronics retailer. Poetically, both are facing the same fate.

I built a Ryzen 7 machine and installed Windows 10. Whilst installing the CD drivers for the soundcard Windows 10 BSOD'd and rebooted. Not to be deterred, I tried the latest downloadable drivers (marked as Windows 8 compatible) but it is all WDM so surely OK? Not so. Another BSOD.

There was no help to be found online so I very reluctantly gave up. Now it lives in the retail packaging somewhere in my house, the bright and elaborate box promising an audible experience that exists only in my mind.
Hadn't heard of Kagi before this, but seriously considering it. $10/mo I might be able to swing. I would not pay $19/mo but that's just me.
Letting neighbors veto projects isn't democracy. Democracy is "rule by the public". That means the whole public, not just a small subset of it. Why were the neighbors consulted but not those in other parts of the city, or other parts of the state?

Localism is sham democracy, it's oligarchy wearing an democratic mask.

Furthermore, giving people a seat at the table is not the same as giving them veto power. People should have a right to voice their opinion, not to unilaterally control others.
Not as terrible sometimes, since often television shows and films “protect” for different aspect ratios (yes this is a thing). So people might shoot 16:9 and protect (basically make sure you have a readable frame) for 4:3 or you can shoot Scope and protect for 16:9.

It’s not perfect but if the filmmakers thought of it it can be ok.

They're also available almost everywhere. Your local electrical supply almost certainly sells them and Home Depot has them in the electrical aisle.

Bonus: they sell cabinet tip screwdrivers in the common slotted and Philips sizes.

Edited to add: Snap-On also makes good screwdrivers, and your friendly local garage can probably tell you when the Snap-On truck comes by </edit>

If you need quality slotted screwdrivers for slotted screws with both the width and thickness of the blade specified, you'll likely need to find your local gun and ammunition store (and they'll likely be a special order even there).

Gunsmiths and sewing machine repair people are just about the last people on the planet who care about the blade fitting the slot well in both directions for a wide variety of screw head sizes.
IT People used to talk on Usenet, then a bunch of young free software guys started Slashdot, which took VC and corporatized, then a seed fund started this web site. The medium determines the message and this board is filled with white, upper middle class born people doing tech finance. Not much of a surprise the front page comes down on the side of the white against the black 95% of the time.
And anything I can think of that I'd want a sound card to do these days is being handled by GPUs - like that NVidia AI noise cancellation, where your kids can scream 5 feet away and no one can hear them on Zoom.
This is actually a good role for government intervention. The exact mechanism is not important, but the concept is. Builders tend to be out of cycle with housing need due to the length time it takes to get a project to completion. After a bust, they get very skittish and underinvest for the first half of the cycle creating a shortage and boom. Government can provide a base level of housing builds to make sure the market doesn’t go too deep into shortage. And it doesn’t have to literally build them itself, just run programs that keep building housing. Ideally it even pays for itself.
I really don't understand the level of hate this guy is getting.

At no point did he claim to be a genius, or a great artist.

He was perfectly upfront about his tools. He even posted about his full process before results were announced.

His only mission is to get a new 'AI Assisted' category in competitions.

As has been pointed out, often, many artists came up with concepts and then directed assistants to create based on a brief. Courts have weighed in and found that the original artist owns the work. All that has changed here is that the 'assistants' have been replaced by AI.

Your argument seems to be that only famous and established artists, "masters", ought to be allowed to do this - am I reading that right?
Criticising actions of governments is all well and good, but no-one is discussing how much it has become acceptable to go after people for some percieved offence. I am not just talking about cancell culture.

Like the fact that Elon Musk is demanding that a lawfirm should fire a lawyer that used to work for SEC just for revenge.

Or the fact that you can get removed from Youtube just because 100 bots filed reports against your channel, no human has ever been offended and no human has ever reviewed the complaint.

How does free speech that offends powerfull people survive in 'law of the jungle' interpretation of free market?
Sometimes the court can uphold the law and yet an undesirable state of affairs can persist. Those comments were racist, and furthermore it seems the family has not acknowledged that fact or apologized for it. This would definitely affect my likelihood of shopping there--all else being equal, I'd greatly prefer to have business owners in my community who don't espouse racist beliefs.
Yes, this. Facts and logic aren't what the Gibsons are pitching here though.
I've been following Kagi's development for some time now and the idea looks promising. Not sure if the team plans to develop its own crawling engine and index that won't depend entirely on sources such as Google/Bing/Wikipedia, etc. Right now, it seems like the results are 90% google results without the ads (which is still a big plus). However, I'd like to see if they can pull off indexing of (maybe a smaller part?) of the web on their own -- that way they can completely get decoupled from Google and not put their fate in the hands of much bigger players.

Anyway, exciting stuff and I wish the team best of luck!
There's something that I find horrifically condescending towards people of color in the woke community; the excuses for theft and violence as if somehow people are unable to control themselves or should avoid consequences for their actions has a stench of racism and superiority complex to me.

As someone who has been mistaken for Colombian, Moroccan, Egyptian and more, I would NEVER want to be given a leg up based on appearance or ethnicity, despite the fact that I've been lumped in with furniture delivery men at my own apartment or passed over for various opportunities. I would much rather try to break people's perceptions of the stereotype through my actions, than reinforce stereotypes through claiming that I need special treatment due to my deficiencies. I would rather work hard to make things better than be condescended towards, and I fervently hope others would too.

If you go to Eastern Europe you can see farmers in absolute poverty tilling their small plot with a donkey, and yet it is safe and the people are welcoming and friendly. If you go to Mozambique the markets are teeming with people who have but a few dollars to their name, and yet it's safe to sleep on the beach. What is so different with America's minority communities which invites the woke to be so overprotective towards them on the topic of violent crime? From what I've seen, usually this crime negatively affects the community it is from more than anyone else, anyways.
The best of competitive sound now is the Sennheiser GSX which is an external USB DAC/Amp. It has a good 7.1 to headphones mode that gets you about the best surround sound on headphones for games/movies you can get, it impacts the tone the least and has one of the best HRTF's I have heard in eyars. But it pales in comparison to the cards we had 20 years ago, I miss my Aureal A3D.
I’ve also enjoyed various interviews at Google. But their overall process is ridiculous.
No question about the title, but there's an elephant in the room here that's being ignored...
Which is an extremely weak defense. The excuse any commander can use for raising cities, just gotta claim it was the only way to do it and hey presto.
Where the advertisers target their ads is irrelevant because they still have to pay Reddit for the placement. If Reddit hosts some kind of controversial content, people can argue that the advertiser is giving financial support to Reddit and is therefore endorsing the content, even if it's not on a sub they advertise on.
In my opinion, the statement "not my fault most black ppl around my area suck" is pretty racist. Most people in my life would as well. The court's ruling, and the laws and rules and standards they used to make it, do not dictate the way me or mine form our opinions. There's a reading of this story where there could also be outrage at punishment for calling a racist a racist.
Linux QOS saves someone's job during the pandemic
> Seriously though, go load up any natively compiled app on your OS of choice and compare the speed of it doing any given task to what you get out of web-based versions, electron versions, etc. There isn't a comparison.

My experience is a bit different...

Google Docs loads faster than Numbers

Figma loads faster than Illustrator

VS code loads faster than Xcode (not a fair comparison)

Quicknote.io loads faster than SimpleNote (which is blazing fast!)

Google Meet loads faster than Zoom

For VS code, it creates a whole new chromium process, but for websites like quicknote.io, do you count the browser base usage and loading time? Or just the incremental time to load up in a new tab?
I went to an expensive school with sometimes-tense "townie" relations.

I tended to empathize more with the town folks, honestly, which was probably a class thing - I was on a "full-ride" scholarship, from a poor family, and working in the cafeteria with a lot of non-students.

There are a lot of reasons for tension, but I think the hardest one is that most of the students are explicitly in an experimental mode, trying out new ways of thinking and relating, while folks in the surrounding town... are not, and have no incentive to indulge the rich kids from out of town.
Ah, that's interesting.

I've typecase Gosling as a shallow heartthrob in my head, even though he's been doing interesting roles for ages.
> - Countries attempting to replicate the American suburban lifestyle

Really, where? I thought only fractions of the anglosphere replicated this (like parts of Canada). Extremely few Europeans would want that lifestyle, for instance. The trend seems to be moving aggressively in the opposite direction, with large and dense cities attracting the majority of new people.
Do you think this is likely to happen? I don't know enough about the politics of the region to know if this is something they would do.
That might be true, but as long as your specific app doesn't need the missing features, you're probably better off with a PWA. Not having to meddle with and pay 30% to app stores alone is a huge win.
Living in Germany as well and I can confirm that 100% of this is true and matches my experience.
Is there a way to get it to run on an an Intel-based Mac? I've attempted several times, but quickly ran into dependency issues and other quirks.
They got $11MM in actual damages. If Oberlin's actions essentially ruined the business, that doesn't seem crazy; further, actual damages have to be tied to, you know, actual demonstrable damages. You could probably look up the transcript to see how actual damages were argued by both sides.

The balance of the penalty was punitive damages, which are intrinsically expressive; you can disagree with them, but they have nothing to do with how much the business was worth.
The PS5 has an audio chip loosely based on the design of the PS3’s Cell CPU. It’s used to compute HRTF 3D audio. It’s really cool, but it’s basically the only modern example (not sure what Apple is doing for it’s 3D audio) and of course it’s a console so it’s not a separate, user replaceable sound card.

It’s a shame because I would love more audio sources to support HRTF (head related transfer function) and “ray traced” audio.
Oops, thanks I got it wrong!
Another happy, paying kagi user here. I find the search results for dev related queries MUCH better than google. This is mostly because I set official documentation sites to have a higher precedence (No more w3 schools appearing above MDN, for example), which is a feature google lacks.

Here's to hoping it gains more traction! I love the competition in the search space.

You can't. The story is misleading.
Additional Pros:

- PWAs have much lower download requirements, whatever your SPA page weight is pretty much the download size. 1-3MB is pretty common.

- PWAs will use lower memory overhead as you don't need a new copy of the browser - it shares with the likely default system browser.

- Launch time can be very snappy even on lower end systems if the base browser is already loaded and you manage offline assets well.

- Don't need to build for Windows, Linux, MacOS. One build serves Web, Windows, MacOs, and Linux users.

Additional cons:

- No guarantee of local storage remaining unmolested by the browser. In practice, it's fine unless a user's disk is filling up then you can get purged.

- Most obvious OS integration limitation is the inability to control the menus on MacOS. You get a generic set that comes with the PWA.
