==Democrats nicknamed it the "don't say gay" bill but that isn't its name, its goal, or its outcome.==

The actual bill language sure makes it seems like the goal, as it was written with ambiguous phrases like "age-appropriate" and "developmentally appropriate":
"Classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity may not occur in kindergarten through grade 3 or in a manner that is not age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards." [1]

==It's about the age appropriateness of the introduction to the topic.==

Is it? I'm pretty sure it is grandstanding:

"one of the key reasons critics cited in saying the law was unnecessary was that teachers do not cover such subjects in early grades anyway." [2]

Lawyers disagree with you that it is only about "age appropriateness of the introduction to the topic":

"Workshops about the law that her school district’s legal team held over the summer caused confusion. Some staff said they were told teachers in kindergarten through third grade could not display pride flags or photos of their same-sex spouses." [2]

Are you sure your news didn't "rename and reframe" it?

==Florida republicans protected women's sex-based rights by making male-bodied people play sports on men's teams and the news called it "denying transgirls their human rights to play sports".==

Protecting one group's rights by denying another group's rights, similar to women and fetuses.

==rather has the school hook the child up with hormones and body modification without the parent's knowledge.==

I would love to hear more about all these cases. Can you share?

==WonderWonder is thinking of their children, and how they'll be told they're racist - and to sit in their shame - just because of their race.==

No, they were mentioning their own experience in a DEI class.

> Nursing only requires a 2 year degree

It also requires passing a licensing test. Passing the licensing test requires self-study. You need to include this time in the training requirements for the profession.

Most jobs do not require a licensing test. So when comparing you need to find similar jobs with 2 year degree + licensing requirements.

> The average full time salary without overtime is ~80,000.

That's exaggerated. The median pay is $77,600. Or a better measure is the $37.31 per hour. That is not a high hourly rate by any measure. [1]

> I think we'd struggle to name a career with such low education requirements and high salary.

No we wouldn't. Large numbers of programmers don't even have a degree - it's not required for sure - and earn way more than nurses. Licensing is not required. Mandatory overtime is not rampant. Programming being a male dominated field.

> Most nurses are paid hourly, so the "long hours" is a moot point.

It's not moot at all. In many cases it is a job requirement, not optional. NY for example only passed a law in 2009 making mandatory overtime illegal for nurses. It was so rampant that states have passed laws about it. That makes the career far harder than most jobs where overtime is often optional. And to date, only 18 states have laws against mandatory overtime for nurses.

> Neither of your links mention nursing.

That's wrong. The 1st link shows a chart with a comparison of careers with similar training and the chart shows nursing in that comparison.

Google just has a much broader set of products, many of which are about as close as you can get to unavoidable infrastructure for everyday life. There are always alternatives, of course, but it's no surprise that Google is much harder to avoid when they offer either the only dominant product or one of a very small number of dominant products in so many areas: web search, email, calendar, maps, smartphone operating system, web browser, video sharing, office suite, ... what did I miss?
D's string is not text by itself because it is an array of UTF-8 code units. However, we have this infamous feature called auto-decoding in the standard library that presents strings as unicode code points.

On the other hand, D's dstrings are more like text because they are not only UTF-32 but also random-accessible code points. (D does not address multiple representations of graphemes at language level. For example, at language level, ğ is different from "g and combining breve" but there are std.uni and std.utf modules that help.)

For those without context, the Command X16 is a passion project by The 8-Bit Guy to build a modernized Commodore 8-bit computer.
While most folks don't use it anymore, there is already an 'rmt' command[0]:

Rmt is a program used by the remote dump(8), restore(8) or tar(1)
programs in manipulating a magnetic tape drive through an
interprocess communication connection. Rmt is normally started up
with an rexec(3) or rcmd(3) call.

The rmt program accepts requests specific to the manipulation of
magnetic tapes, performs the commands, then responds with a
status indication. All responses are in ASCII and in one of the
following two forms.

Depending on the platform, this could cause a name collision with unexpected results.

I haven't heard of it either, but "intersectionality" means (according to Google, but in my experience, sounds accurate.)

> Intersectionality is a theoretical framework rooted in the premise that human experience is jointly shaped by multiple social positions (e.g. race, gender), and cannot be adequately understood by considering social positions independently.

> For instance: nice homes in very low demand areas may sell for large amounts of money and only have a single offer.

These houses and the areas they occupy (i.e Beverly Hills, Park Ave ) are an extreme edge case, and don't exist in the same housing market as normal houses.

Above a certain very high price percentile, there are always very few buyers and sellers, and they are all paying a high premium for things like high physical security.

My rule of thumb: if you could ever imagine a user wanting to control-click open in new tab or right-click open in new window, it should be a link.

It seems more likely to me that they have art directors, they're just the same ones that design the weird corporate advertising art with the tiny heads. It's very "safe" for lack of a better word.

Safe works when you're selling productivity software, but not when the product is (partially) the art/design/environment.
My understanding is that the fuel in the SR-71 was also the coolant, so it might not have been the fuel-loop that was leaking, but the coolant loop, as the coolant necessarily must go to hotter parts of the aircraft.

I doubt that the fuel served this dual-purpose on the XB-70, and exotic coolant might not have been needed for <30 minutes at Mach 3 anyways.

I don't think a movie has this much influence, but yeah, role models have more influence on character than genetics, obviously.

My father is parenting like his own father was. And with his wife than my grandfather did with my grandmother (and hopefully i'll manage to act the same). Also have the same politics and the same engagement my grandmother had (and same character, so he does has some flaws :) ). My father was adopted. As he isn't a hippie living in the middle of nowhere or a trophy wife living in a top10 US city in an affluent area thank to the money his partner earned, i'd say genetics have really little influence on your character.

I mean, if you met old ladies from brittany, or from Ireland (and probably any rural area that din't get TV until the 70s), and compare them to those you met in CA or WA, it would be obvious than culture is the primary influence over genetics.

It has not occurred to you that the historical data shows evidence of bias instead of evidence of choice and that's fascinating.
But people's work history is visible regardless of whether their resume is anonymized. If what you wrote in your previous comment is true, then anonymizing resumes should be strictly better for black applicants. Sure, it won't "solve" disparities in past work experience. But non-anonymous resumes still have that disparity and racial discrimination - anonymous resumes at least eliminate the latter. So if what you wrote about in your previous comment is true, companies should see some increases in hiring rates among black applicants under an anonymous hiring regime.

More broadly, I think you're confusing "non-discriminatory" with "equal chances". A blind audition doesn't mean all participants have equal chances of success. Someone who's been playing the violent for 25 years is probably going to have a better shot than someone who has only a few years of experience - and the lattice has better chances than me, who has zero experience. The fact that we have unequal chances of landing a spot in the orchestra isn't evidence of discrimnation. It's the system working as intended: the more skilled musician has greater chances of getting a spot, regardless of factors like race, gender, etc.

In the context of tech hiring, the purpose of the hiring process is to confer greater chances of success for candidates with relevant skills and ability. If someone is hiring for a position demanding C++ experience, then candidates who are C++ wizards are more likely to succeed at this job opening than people who occasionally dabble in C++.

I think the person you're responding to is referencing intersectional feminism (more recently mainstream in social justice and feminism discussions), which is perhaps somewhat related to what's being discussed, but really not the topic at hand.

What is relevant is that the general discourse focuses more on systemic differences in opportunity to disadvantaged groups. In this case, we're talking about women as the ostensibly disadvantaged group.

I think what people fail to understand though, is that marginalization can take many forms. If women are less likely to continue interviewing after rejection, this doesn't mean that they have the same opportunity; instead, it suggests that systemic factors play into this. The "intersectional" take on this is really focused on how different components of identity work together to shape an individual's experience, in subtle ways that compound. Hence, just growing up in a society where young women and men have even mildly different attitudes impressed upon them from a young age, can have more noticeable effects on their outcomes much later in life
> Unlike homosexuality (LGB), talking about gender does turn people transgender

categorically false

> or rather has the school hook the child up with hormones and body modification without the parent's knowledge.

source? schoolteachers can prescribe medication and perform surgery? Are these teachers also MDs ? That would be unusual ? not to mention extremely illegal for teachers and doctors to treat children without the consent of their legal guardians? teachers can't even give kids a tylenol.

> WonderWonder is thinking of their children, and how they'll be told they're racist

the word "racist" in modern use refers to actions that are racist, such as voting for Ron DeSantis. It doesn't matter if in your heart you're racist or not, if you do racist things, whether you have any idea or not that those things are racist, that's what it means to "be a racist".

Imagine the opposite - photorealistic avatars. There would be no interaction! You'd spend all your time rendering.
Just about every new housing development in the greater Houston area starts like this: Acquire some cheap farmland not too far from a highway, come in and sub-divide the lots, build some kind of neighborhood amenity (pool, rec center, etc.), and creat a Municipal Utility District with on-site well and sewer.

None of this was connected to a more robust regional water system with surface water. Each one of these neighborhoods was planned on its own without any thought into how it fit into the bigger picture of its surroundings.
We just want them to be 100% in on things we think are perfect, pretty simple really. :P

He’s working at meta one day a week i believe, i dont see how he can improve things. Also how much room for improvement is there for a mobile phone with a builtin vr goggle? Basically thats what the oculus is. Even carmack said there is only this much you can achieve on such a platform. Now if somehow they’d squeeze in more hardware then that could work. Or a dedicated console and stream content via wifi (wireless pc vr works quite well on oculus, albeit the headset isnt that great).
Remember the hot linking wars?

Small sites would get pissed when site like the nyt hotlinked and serve them pron instead.
The beauty of it is that you don't have to figure out what the underlying mechanism is. You just need to help people on the basis of those measurable metrics - poverty, access to education etc - while ignoring other factors. If it so happens that those other factors have a causal correlation with poverty etc, well, you've just mitigated that.

But running at 120fps at basically 4k resolution while scanning 5 camera inputs on the same low power mobile CPU? I think not.

And remember these scenes can be modified by users and are loaded as needed.

This is not like a precooked scene in a computer game where designers spend weeks fine-tuning the lighting model.

I notice pretty much all quest apps use ambient lighting only which gives them this fake look. Some nice spotlights would do a world of good. But I guess anything better than this is just too expensive for the system.
The civil rights act, as written makes this form of discrimination illegal.

However the supreme court undid this in United Steelworkers v Weber.

I do not understand how Americans find it acceptable that you can vote for people, they can pass clear statutory language that says you cannot discriminate and then SCOTUS can come along, and read the complete opposite meaning into the statute.

>The best thing to do is to let the market forces work rather than placing a limit.

Free markets, to paraphrase a famous saying about the US Constitution, are not a suicide pact.

Price controls alone will increase demand, and therefore some other method of rationing has to be planned and substituted. I agree politicians are dangerous to the extent they do not grapple with this.

Nobody wants to have allocation based on how long you can wait in line or how politically connected you are, like the stereotype of the Soviet Union.

But even the capitalist democracies had rationing systems during WWII. Markets are optimizing machines, and like every optimizing contraption, human beings get to set them up and determine the boundary conditions.

In extreme conditions, people without much money get a disproportionate amount of utility from essentials, compared with people who have a lot.

Nothing about a "free" market necessarily entails a guard rail preventing millions of people falling beneath a threshold of starving or freezing.

It is a terrible mistake to go around acting as though there is a benevolent God watching who will save us if we are only faithful to "market forces". We create and maintain markets, and live or die as a result.

Meta actually does have several really great art directors who’ve done great work in other industries.
