About 6 years ago I took a trip to Boston and decided to stay just outside of the main city in Everett.

I picked a single room place with a private bathroom. It was $37 per night with an all-in cost of $188 for 4 nights which included $20 "cleaning fees"[0] and $20 "Airbnb service fee". It was an overall success, the room was very comfortable and the hosts were nice. Hotels were over triple the price at the time and 7x the price to get one in the main city area of Boston.

I just checked the rates today and it's about $105 per night for an Airbnb in Everett and I'm guessing fees will be higher. For the same trip it would likely be $500. Hotels in the main city area of Boston are about $200 a night, that would have saved a ~30min bus ride each way making it much more desirable because a ~30 bus ride really means at least 45 minutes each way to make sure you're on time. I only picked Everett because even in 2016 hotel prices were ~$200 a night in Boston itself.

Prices changed a lot but I'm 99% sure I'd pick a hotel too at these price points.

[0]: This was an imposed fee by Airbnb. The hosts said I left the place in very neat order, basically all I did was sleep there.
Surprisingly, I see no mention of DMCA in the comments here, even though the same company are actually mandated by DMCA to effectively regulate content. (And yes, the right or not to share cultural content freely on the internet is a political topic…)
did you create your own at the end? have a link?
generally this isn't something that you come up with in a day. it's distilled down and refined over time, you just see it when it reaches maturity.

can't speak to the OPs process though, maybe they shat it out on a whim :)
It's not so much the verbal aspect rather than the memory aspect. Written instructions are more soothing because you can refer to them verbatim and they stand no risk of being forgotten.

Can I come to your private residence with a group of friends and spout any type of none sense? Isn’t it telling that conservatives can’t come up with a successful social media platform?
It is not clickbait, it does cost that much in medical bills, and 85% of people will have their insurance cover a part of that.

Anyone know if there is a way to do WebAuthN without loading JavaScript from the website? Perhaps a Web Extension that reimplements the login requests for every website that uses WebAuthN will be needed, since there isn't any standard protocol for WebAuthN login between the browser and website, just whatever the website implements in JavaScript.
Eh, I've tried organizing events. I don't have the real estate to host, so that means locking in 6-8 attendees for a restaurant reservation two weeks in advance. That means interacting with the same 3-4 people and their partners. I quit after about ten attempts, and have not been invited to anything myself since. I don't think anyone actually enjoyed those brunches.
No I’m not overweight, that’s the point. But I could be statistically counted as being overweight when my weight is recorded at a doctor visit.

I don’t have a particularly abnormal body, which leads me to believe there is a large margin of error when measuring the number of overweight people.

“Looking around” and personally observing is wrought with bias. I’d prefer we use a more useful metric than BMI to get an accurate data on obesity.

Yeah, I agree. I lamented my lack of early education in statistics later in life. Now, at the time I was studying calculus-based courses, I didn't like them either. But it didn't take long into various quantitative fields where it clearly made a difference.

The lack of statistical understanding by the general population should not come at the expense of calculus-based mathematics. Furthermore, simply increasing the knowledge of statistics in peoples' minds won't solve all the problems that people see with innumerate individuals; a significant problem is that statistical reasoning often runs counter to human intuition and emotion. No amount of knowledge defeats those in all cases.
Maybe I need to improve ours!

I have zero problem at movies. But I always watch TV with subcaptions. There’s usually some words that I miss
Yep, the 12-14" CRT was a fixture in basically every kids bedroom in my childhood and a decade later it was flip top portable dvd players with built in screen.

Unfortunately without additional hardware support it's hard to tie TPM FIDO to physical user presence, which means compromising the system doesn't give you access to the secrets but does let you sign as many challenges as you want without user involvement.
This is one (of many to be fair) reasons I quite dislike the theater. Others being "free" food/drinks, my dog, my comfortable couch, pausing, and my bathroom. I've wondered before if they could give people special glasses (a la 3D glasses) that would show the "hidden" subtitles at the bottom. But even that wouldn't get me back in a theater.
Breeze through is not true though. You can do a search on twitter and will see multiple 6.006 complaints.
> Can I come to your private residence

I don't have 50 million users, so no the law would not apply to my private residence.

The law instead applies to large social media companies. And the law is allowed by the court system.

If I get 50 million users at some point, running a multi-billion dollar company, then yes the law would apply to me.

> until it is overturned.

I'd recommend that you read up on the supreme court opinions on this. They have already made some statements, that is looking like they are not going to overturn the law.
crates.io isn't npm. A lot of mess in npm is specific to npm, Node and JS.

I need to rm -rf node_modules regularly. Cargo works every time.

Node makes breaking changes regularly and intentionally. Rust releases are checked against all crates-io crates to avoid breaking anything.

JS has dynamic typing, monkey patching, and a drama around modules. Rust has very clear and strict library interfaces.

Cargo is much more reliable than the npm client. Has lock files that work. Left-pad scenario has been fixed at npm long time ago, and has never been possible at crates-io.
ehhh pingdom?

Interesting article. I think it would be a nice experiment to run an introduction to proof course, including something like Martin Gardner's puzzles, to show how proof works, and the power of thinking carefully and building up arguments (and using some elementary arithmetic to help). I think that'd go a long way towards increasing mathematical thinking with minimal suffering, like memorization of integrals. It should provide a more gentle introduction to the heart of maths.

Just for what it's worth, a quick search on AliExpress shows this S-Video cable at $3.01 + $1.00 shipping:

For argument's sake, let's say 5% of your house's floor space is dedicated to storing crap that you might use one day in the future. At $1500/mo rent, that's effectively $75/mo you're spending to store crap, or $900/year. This doesn't include the additional stress that comes from the clutter and inability to find what you need.

So if it makes things easier, just consider the hundreds to thousands of dollars per year you're spending on floor space with negative utility, all to avoid a couple of <$50 purchases.
Star Citizen! Seriously, makes me feel like a kid every time I boot it up. None of the pay to win DLC nonsense either. If there's a ship or piece of equipment you want, you can just make enough money in the course of playing the game to get it eventually. Plus, it's one of the only games in recent memory that can put my 3090 to good use. The graphics the engine spits out are so impressive, people have started making movies with it and they're not bad!
They could, but it's still limiting - the maximum number of challenges the attacker is able to satisfy is the number of times you touch the token before you realise that something's up.
I don't think that I've heard giving a five referred to as "slap hands" before, but I'm definitely going to start saying this!
What other connector would you use to break out a bunch of pins? These are under a $1 in quantity and can break out 60+ pins per connector.

They are vastly cheaper than the corresponding .100" connectors to break these out for the same number of pins. And they have much better signal integrity.

An additional advantage to this arrangement is that you can push everything non-essential off the "module" (note that the sockets are on the expansion board--the CPU module is just PCB fingers). Given the current semiconductor supply chain idiocies, this certainly won't hurt.

The only other option I can think of would be a DIMM socket and that would be quite a bit more expensive.
I was so confused by this recording I asked a local to explain it to me.
I absolutely get the worry (and reality) of jokes being ruined. In the end I bite the bullet because of the same reason I want CC's on all the time: I just miss or mishear things when I don't, sometimes to the point I don't understand the joke.

That said, sometimes subs (from places like OpenSubtitles) are laughable bad in that they don't know the "in-universe" words for a show (comedy or otherwise) and do best-guesses/phonetic spellings of things they aren't sure of which is it's own issue.
Obviously, "silenced" has different meanings and weight depending on the context in which it's being used, but ... I never actually used the term, so it's an odd point of contention to raise.

The original statement I replied to — which was also the first time "silenced" was used in this thread — was:

> Being kicked off Twitter isn't the same as being silenced.

In reply, I asked "What would you call it?".
One of my favourite Haskell "one-liners" is combining the AD package with Number.Symbolic:

{-# LANGUAGE ImportQualifiedPost #-}

module Module_1663406024_9206 where

import Numeric.AD qualified as Ad
import Data.Number.Symbolic qualified as Sym

-- >>> f x = x^2 + 3 * x
-- >>> Ad.diff f 1
-- >>> Ad.diff f (Sym.var "a")
-- 5
-- 3+a+a

-- >>> Ad.diff sin pi
-- >>> Ad.diff sin (Sym.var "a")
-- -1.0
-- cos a

The package authors did not need to coordinate to make this possible which is pretty wild.

I think I meant computation in the mathematical sense. In other words that 'computation' is a mathematical object worthy of study in its own right.

Per analog and quantum, indeed, and they are also mathematics.

I think that is my point - (very nearly) everything proceeds from mathematics, there is no other foundation.
Lived there for a month. Maybe it wasn't long enough, but that sound makes me nostalgic.
> And think about it for a sec, if you found yourself hypersensitive to cortisol

Medicine isn't 'think about it for a sec' - you made direct claims using unscientific terms - Cushings is a very specific and relatively rare disease that has no realm of relevance here. Not sure where you are trying to go with this but it is obvious you have no medical background or standing.
>And how’s that working?

Well currently you can make 1k rent per month or be homeless. We should be bridging that gap rather than making it more difficult to pay people money.
I watch everything on 1.4x, but I would watch it faster if it wouldn't run into buffering issues and get glitchy. Podcasts are normally 2.2x.

I just find I enjoy taking the information in more when I can do it quickly. If my brain has no trouble operating at that speed, I might as well take advantage of the chance to get more new ideas in my head!
Good points. The case studies seem great—maybe this advice is better presented that way?
> Texas law that bars large social media companies from banning or censoring users based on "viewpoint,"

But this doesn’t mention barring banning accounts because they break ToS about bot usage.

I don't want to nitpick but if they believe that most people only really learn through pain then they would likely also believe exacerbating pain is indeed helping.

There's a "flag" option if you think it doesn't belong here. There's also a "hide" option if you just don't want to see it. These aren't hard to find, they're both available under the submission title.
I agree, but also find it surprising that younger generations are more focused on what they are watching.

I'm a background watcher for sure, and this trend with CC suggests to me that the whole "2nd screen" thing isn't playing with the younger generation.

Any insights as to why that may be?

To give more context, I was always a "background media" person. Even as a kid I'd draw while in front of the TV, I was never a focused participant.
I’ve had a few dexa scans. It’s been as low as 10% and as high as 15%, so I split the difference.

I rock climb or ski 3 times a week for exercise. That’s it. I’m definitely not the most fit in my friend group by a long shot, but yeah it’s a fairly active social group.

Also I’m 40 years old.

Could you comment on something I was thinking about casually one day. I reckon the grid causes ions to slam into it and lose energy. Why not intentionally cause cathode "grid" be part of the fuel? For instance think of a specially designed water cutting jet that shot a very thin beam of heavy water in the center of a cavity that was disc shaped. The Anode is around the perimeter. The body is made of fused silica welded with fluxed glass. The heavy water could have a little lithium in it to make it very electrically conductive. The water is at earth ground.

The ions get accelerated to the beam and hit it dead on along with the heavy water deuterium inside of it. They may also meet particles coming in from the opposite direction.

What do you think of the idea?
> I would place the room in which I’m writing this at level three on the CIR – a ‘standard’ amount of household clutter, according to Frost and Steketee.

If level 3 refers to the CIR living room image at the top, well, this level being "standard" sounds weird to me. I mean, 3 to me is a mess already. I keep my house at what would be level 0, level 1 is already pushing it (acceptable temporarily, but these piles of newspaper? make me feel nervous), level 2 is when things get way out of hand (e.g because life is a thing and sometimes time/energy comes short).

Most people I know would be the same, a few would need level -1 or -2 (that would be IKEA-like house, always clean and tidy in every way). I do know a couple of level 4/5 but while I'm empathetic, non-judgemental, and respectful that everyone is different, it blows past my "what is this I don't even" mental line, where it gets unsettling to me to physically be in such an environment.

> But like Falkoff, who first became interested in what she calls ‘hoardiculture’ because both her grandmother and her father were compulsive hoarders, I grew up in a house that was somewhere between level five (hoarding that might require some ‘professional assistance’) and level seven (which poses significant safeguarding issues, requiring ‘a collaborative multi-agency approach with the involvement of a wide range of professionals’).

Oh my looking at the pictures this sounds like the most horrifying experience to me.
Very much yes.

I am currently trying to tutor my daughter through college-level calculus. She wants to be a civil engineer. Civil engineers, obviously, need to know calculus.

But calculus is not being taught to her by engineers. It is being taught by mathematicians. And as part of teaching it, they are attempting to instill a "mathematical mindset". Which means, in practice, that it is an entry to proofs.

Every proof has a trick. If you can see the trick, you can generally figure out how to do the proof. If you can't see the trick, you can't. The same thing is true with all of the very tricky limits they are making her learn to solve.

I hold a PhD in aerospace engineering with a minor in applied mathematics. I specialized in control theory. I use calculus every day of my life. In twenty years of engineering practice I have never once had to take a difficult limit, and can probably count on one hand the number of times I've had to take a limit of any kind.

I had a heart-to-heart with her about this today. I told her that what she actually needed to understand about calculus was how to use it to solve engineering problems, not how to manipulate polynomial fractions, chain trig identities, and do substitutions of variables. And she was not going to learn that in this class, but that she nevertheless needed to learn the tricky algebra and epsilon-delta proofs simply because this was a hoop she needed to jump through to get to the actual engineering classes.

There was a not inconsiderable amount of cursing, but I understood because I hit the same wall, just thirty years prior. Nothing has changed.

GPA will typically matter for your first job--although that's more because there's precious little else on the résumé that indicates your suitability as opposed to being a good indicator in and of itself.
Agreed, but is it better for these people to have fewer choices for work?

And who is in the best position to decide? The person making the choice to drive for Uber, you or I, politicians?

I go back and forth about this on a high level, but don’t necessarily support outright bans on gig work. Maybe just a bit more sensible regulation to help people understand potential earnings vs. all their costs (ex. car payment, insurance, repairs, etc.) and maybe some way to allow them to accrue sick pay based on hours worked. Just to put a slight hand on the scale to help people deciding on gig work. But we’d have the problem of who would pay for any such benefits; Uber may pass the cost along to end users. Maybe funded by taxes somehow
It's not at all obvious because many types of costs do not increase linearly for large organizations but exponentially.

For example, if it's quadratic, going from 1 000 to 1 000 000 would increase costs by one million fold.
Because filmmakers don't know how to handle dialogue in multichannel mixes anymore.

What Haskell calls a "class" is what Java calls an "interface". What Haskell calls an "instance" of an interface is what Java would call a class implementing that interface.

`Num`, then, is a Haskell class (Java interface).

The `Num` class will have a bunch of what Java would call "default methods".

Now, the "instance" of `Num` defined here has only a few methods defined, but the other default methods of `Num` will use those. So if `Num` has a `^` defined in terms of ``, and you define an instance of `Num` that defines ``, then you get `^` for free if you don't implement it.

Desalination might be the best use for excess generating capacity, after the local storage is all charged up.

(Desalination costs >140x less energy than extraction by current dehumidification methods, although a recent advance in the latter may vut this to just 60x.)

Then, pump the desalinated water up to high-altitude reservoirs.

In some places (e.g. Northern California) that could be as simple as vaporizing the water and letting the wind carry it to the mountains, to be rained into reservoirs.

Desalination might then amount to pumping seawater through greenhouses and exhausting the humid air, much more cheaply than forcing it through membranes. There is no need to get every last water molecule out, as there is a plenty of seawater. The only cost is pumping. Outgoing effluent may be used both to pre-warm incoming water, and assist pumping via directly coupled turbines.

Less-concentrated, cooler effluent is better for ecosystems it drains into. It could also be be made to capture and carry away atmospheric CO2, on its way out, with enough lime added to maintain pH. Cement makers might operate these systems to avoid carbon taxes.
31 but yeah, I've had subs on for almost a decade now? Maybe only 6-7 years?

For me I find I miss things without the subs on. Whispered/background dialog that I'm unsure how anyone is supposed to hear/understand being top of list but also sound mixing seems to be terrible by default and it's hard to hear/understand characters even in a quiet room sometimes. I read quickly so subs have never been an issue to me, I can scan and parse the subs and be looking back at the video in no time at all.

For foreign content (like Anime) I use dubs + subs (the subs are of the initial English translation before the dubs were done) because it gives 2 passes at any given line. I find it very interesting to see how they change things between the two and it sometimes paints a fuller picture.

Same here. Many movies are nice but slow; watching at 1.5× speed makes it a better experience. But then it becomes difficult to understand some dialogs, so I turn CC on.

Realistically speaking if your machine is compromised it's effectively game over. If you're signing into services on a daily basis an attacker wouldn't have to wait long to piggy back off a legitimate request. The chances that you catch the compromise before that happens is slim.
