There is no feature, it only sets the static evaluation of the language itself.

Think for a second, if the go.mod stricture locked in the entire thing, you’d just be told to not upgrade.

The entire point of the system is that it’s possible to update language-level semantics while allowing for the rest to progress for everybody.

Setting go.mod means you get stdlib updates, but the semantics of the for loop does not change. And if the designers decide to add similar breaking changes in the future (change string literals or whatever), you’ll also be ignoring those.

There's the Thinkpad X13s.

Technically a laptop and not a desktop PC, but the strengths of ARM are much more apparent in power and heat constrained mobile settings. As long as ARM hasn't even gained a solid foothold in laptops (outside Apple), what's the point of putting it in a form factor where it will be even less attractive.

This is an interesting approach that seems to (finally) be getting more attention from a research perspective as well.

When you mention mushrooms during an Amsterdam visit, it makes it sound like it was a one time experience. Is that correct? Have you been regularly taking mushrooms during that 4 year period? Or did you simply never need to drink after one mushroom dose?

If it's the latter...that is truly remarkable and again, proof (even if anecdotal) that this needs to be researched far more thoroughly than it has been.
This makes a lot of sense, and upon reflection is kinda of obvious when one considers how image pyramids and resolution independence works in computer vision.
I guess you could but now you have to special-cases that need static analysis and all that jazz. Probably easier to just put it behind a version flag.

I'm pretty sure this is the kind of thing maximized by current increase GRAAARGGH feeling in readers algorithms, there's just so much, you were probably getting your GRAAARGGH maximized by something else.

anyway look at it this way - if the algorithms were working at giving you this important stuff in a way you were aware of it, you might have chosen a different username.

on edit: sometimes we are unaware of things just by happenstance and no algorithm tweaking will fix it, consider it a version of the XKCD 10000, I was aware of this as it passed in my feed at some point, but really if I was unaware of it I would assume it as a likely consequence of for profit prisons anyway - if asked to consider the possibility that is.

Isn't wild leaps in assumptions just economics in general?

So many economic theories are built on wild assumptions, like assuming everyone is rational as a basis.

Economics is closer to politics than any hard sciences imo. So on a high level like CBs it's all about narrative.
I read that as "worst possible conditions as legally allowed". So no, they are not "the" worst conditions imaginable, but they are as bad as the system allows. Which is still pretty bad.

>>On the labor issue I don’t see why prison populations shouldn’t get put to work on public works projects.

No one is arguing against that. The problem is that prison populations are being used for profit making - anyone can contract with a prison to use their labour to make whatever thing you want to do or make. So companies use prisoners to make products that they then sell for profit. Which obviously creates perverse incentives for prisons to have a large workforce they can hire out for profit. No one is arguing against using prisoners to clear out public pathways or whatever.

>> It’s not a vacation, it’s jail.

Also, I just want to say I'm not a fan of this argument because people use it to excuse all kinds of things. "People get beaten up in prison? It's not a vacation, it's jail". "Prison rape happens? It's not a vacation, it's jail". And so on and so on. Like, yeah, it's not a vacation, but a basic standard of human dignity should be allowed.

That is empirically testable if you spell it out in any detail. What do you mean by should? That we'd be better off?

Where shall you house these homeless people? During the pandemic NYC tried using vacant hotels to house homeless people. Surprise surprise the areas immediately surrounding the hotels turned into a drug and needle playground, and people evacuated. It was an epic disaster.

People with this idea are almost always from the suburbs. Plenty of homeless people are merely down on their luck, but many (most?) others have mental issues or have crippling drug addiction. No one wants that shit near their home or children.

You can certainly try and force it, but you can’t force people to tolerate it. People will just leave, and the nearby areas will turn into a slum.
> The experts who are leading you may be wrong. (…)

It's not that the experts are wrong per se. It's understanding and embacing that they* and their employers have plenty of conflicting interests. Money and ego being at the top of the list.

These people - even Bill Nye and NdT - are not above the rest of us. Full stop. They shit too. The fact that they are collectively so fond of promoting otherwise is a key tell / signal. They'd do a lot better in the trust dept if they found some humility.

The Scientific Method can be trusted. However, the humans that implement and execute it cannot. To believe otherwise is naive, and anti-history.

When physicists talk math concepts, e.g., probability densities, differentiability, continuity, probability, inner products, Fourier transforms, solutions to differential equations, unitary transformations, etc. they are talking math. They should get the math correct.

So, roughly the paradigm might be -- as a student I assumed it was -- start with a physics problem, convert to a math problem, see what the math says, e.g., solution to a differential equation, Stokes theorem, the weak law of large numbers, then convert back to physics to see what those math results say about the physics.

The idea of a finite universe, say, with a boundary, is popular in popular science and maybe science fiction but is missing from nearly all serious, accepted physics as taught today. So, really, the idea of a finite universe is no good as a patch up of what Feynman wrote.

A simple approach for some of this issue is just to say,

"I have a lab. A neutron is wandering around in it. I don't know where it is. So, I assume the probability density of its location is uniform in the lab."

That's fine, that is, in the math.

Notice, I never used rigorous. When physics profs used that word, it meant that it was time for me, no delay, don't wait for the end of the class period, just to stand, say nothing, walk out, drop the course, and return to the math department.
I've seen proposals where it's typically market value + 10% or something which covers transaction costs and the cost and hassle of moving.

The law is so complicated that even specialists like lawyers aren't trusted to get it right, and we bring in the judges who are experts even among the experts to help with the tricky stuff. Sometimes they talk in latin. And yet, when questioned, they still come up with answers that make sense. There is a profound fairness - often the complaint against the legal system is its procedural fairness is too thorough when people think there are obvious answers.

In economics, the argument seems to almost literally be "lol, we have your money hostage, if we don't start the money printers you'll go bankrupt. Yeah, we have policies that will wipe out your savings if you don't put it up as a hostage. This is in your own best interests. No your doubts aren't legitimate you're just not being reasonable and/or we don't want to engage with you in common English. All the evidence was established in 1930 and the debate is settled, we don't really need to provide it now, trust us we're right and you don't understand it anyway".

I say almost because the "lol" is not included in the serious version.
I was also a daily drinker for years. My experience was after a while, the booze was not really helping me unwind. It was increasing my base level of anxiety, creating the “need” to use it to unwind. I could only see this after I stopped for several months.

I never was a drinker, hadn't really had the time for it, instead devoting myself to work. In my mid 20's, I decided I had enough and decided to lose weight and get fit. It went well, I lost >240 pounds. This was a few years ago.

I ended up on a dating site (go figure, newly fit guy) and ended up finding someone I meshed with. She's an absolute legend. She also introduced me to drinking ("social"). It ended up getting a bit of out hand, especially with the pandemic.

I then started "hiding" the alcohol, and binge drinking 2-3 bottles a few nights a week. Crazy stuff thinking back on it. I'm so glad she stuck with me through this.

So yeah, we tried a lot of things (therapy, a drug that didn't work and gave me incredibly bad side effects), but I never had the urge to drink, until it hit me and I couldn't stop until I did. I can't believe I managed to hold onto my job, and actually perform well.

Anyway, I ended up getting diagnosed with ADHD (or at the very least, ADHD traits, it's a giant spectrum, i guess). This was 18 months ago. Since then, I haven't had the urge to drink, I'm on new medication which helps SO MUCH, and therapy where it actually makes sense. I might not have ADHD, but damn close to it.
Or perhaps other players don't have the incentive to do it? In addition to the development time and cost, you also need to make customers willing to buy it. For Apple, they have tight control over the ecosystem so they can make the transition really smooth, but for others this may not be that easy. The way I see this is that, customers already using Apple product will not give up using it if the switch is not too painful, while Windows users will not switch to using some new architecture unless there is some significant gain for them.

Using batteries for the grid requires roughly the same amount of batteries as EV’s do. A 100kWh battery pack for a car * 1,000 charge cycles / 25 years = 4,000 kWh of battery per year * ~290 million cars. That’s enough to store almost 1/3 of all current electricity used in the US while ignoring busses and farm equipment etc.

Of course actual cost depends on how much storage we need and future battery prices but adding something like 20-50$/month on future electricity bills gets offset by both cheaper electricity from solar and wind and less excess generating capacity. In that context large scale batteries seem like a perfectly reasonable solution.

Which is supported by many current grid scale PV instillations including them so they can avoid a AC>DC step when charging the batteries and then sell during peak demand at a premium.
You are right about the fact this is fasting.

But the parent wrote "Does such caloric restricted diet allow one to maintain muscles and/or strength?" Which means he is asking about caloric restriction responding to comment about fasting.
Where science becomes useful is in applied sciences. Applying science is ruthless: it either works or not at all. When it works, it's typically very valuable to people. Most of our recent history is a boom in applied sciences that started accelerating about 600 years ago when Galileo started publishing some notions about the earth revolving around the sun while also providing and documenting the tools that he used to come to that conclusion. Galileo was censored by the church but the cat was out of the bag as loads of contemporaries verified his results and started building on his theories.

Most of the progress in applied sciences is directly connected to progress in theoretical science. And a lot of that is of course enabled through experimentation. Which is a form of progressive insight that accumulates knowledge. But only if we publish it and build on it. And of course a lot of mistakes get published as well and there are always loose ends, alternative theories, wrong theories, etc. So, there are no absolute truths. Science is never finished, complete, or even internally consistent. Newton was on to something and then Einstein challenged some of that and after him quantum theory challenged some of his notions. Progressive insight. None of it is necessarily wrong and lots of things happened in between. Good science starts with challenging everything and then trying hard to falsify any theories that emerge from that. You look for negative evidence, not for positive evidence.

Bad science simply doesn't work when applied to reality. Flat earthers earning a Darwin (whose ideas they'd typically also reject) award by dying in apparent attempts to be scientific about their delusions is a thing. There are all sorts of crazy individuals who launched themselves using some death trap to "prove" that the earth was flat. It's not very valuable science of course because we already knew the earth wasn't flat. And there are no known flat earth theory applications that have any economical value.

There's a whole branch of pseudo science around intelligent design, flat earth, etc. that basically tries to "fix" the inconsistencies between religion and mainstream scientific knowledge by using scientific methodology. Which is of course mildly ironic and tragic at the same time.

However, applied pseudo science usually ends in tears: because it just won't work. Applied pseudo science is of course a thing. Homeopathy, and other snake oil medicine is ever popular. It doesn't work, of course. Or at least not in a way that can be verified in a way that holds up scientifically. But that doesn't seem to stop people from believing in it anyway.
Yeah, Germany has had similar cases, and then of course there's the Rosenhan Experiment [0].

That's why it's controversial. Housing First is controversial because it, too, will be corrupted if there's no additional action, and will mostly become the housing component of a UBI, likely with significantly higher costs as some people will not be able to function in the provided housing, damage it, and at the same time have the right to an undamaged home.

Putting people behind bars is less controversial on the right, spending the budget on social causes for eternity is less controversial on the left.

More the competition the better for the world.

I still feel a well designed Lithium Iron Phosphate or Sodium based battery with > 5000 cycles can prove very cost effective if used properly. The high no of cycles reduces the levelized cost of storage significantly. Difficulty is scaling this to beyond 1-2 days at most.
Open drug scenes[0] are behind the push to end open drug scenes.

9% of prisons are private, which is 9% too many, but it's the citizens who have to endure open drug scenes who are behind the push to end them.

[0]: https://www.karger.com/Article/Pdf/259053

This problem is described, wrongly, as homelessness, by both advocates for ending open drug scenes, and by activists who view themselves as working on behalf of the unhoused.

That's not the effect of their activism. The effect of their advocacy is to increase misery. Open drug scenes make the city unsafe. Open drug scenes draw the temporarily homeless into a shadow market of addictions and prostitution.

Open drug scenes are bad for everyone who has to be near them, but they are particularly destructive to the mentally ill addicts who constitute them.

I'm sure private prisons would love to turn all of us into literal slaves, but if we reduced the number of them down to the correct 0%, urban residents would still be demanding the end of open drug scenes.

They are right to do so. Supporting open drug scenes is supporting misery, harm, assault, theft, overdose, rape.

Don't support open drug scenes. Make sure your donations to help the unhoused don't support open drug scenes (this is difficult).

Also, let's end private prisons. It was never a good idea and it won't get better with time.

Type 1 diabetic here. My body doesn't produce insulin, so if my glucose level goes up after eating or drinking something, that increase in glucose is a (very) approximate measure of insulin response in someone without type 1 diabetes. Insulin is released/produced/injected in response to glucose level increase (and other signals in someone who doesn't have type 1 diabetes).

In my experience, black coffee is absolutely fine outside of an eating window. I fast for at least 18 hours a day, only drinking black coffee and water when fasting. There was no measurable difference in glucose on occasions when I drank black coffee, vs occasions without (all other things as equal as possible).

Sensible Soccer is recognizable by the small scale player graphics but still did/does not fit the whole playing field on one screen. Originally due to screen size and resolution constraints I suppose. I'd love a version for 4K 60" type screens with the whole field visible flipped horizontally, for many vs many local multiplayer games. I wonder if there are any examples of screen/resolution constrained retro games that later got (un)official version that just expand the field of view like that, without replacing graphics or game mechanics?

Capital and liquidity requirements are not decided by central banks generally. In most democracies it's a legislative branch responsibility. They cannot "withdraw" QE. What they have been doing is buying bonds at a higher price than the market thus lowering the interest rates they simple buy them a bit cheaper now.
> Science is NOT the end all be all determinator of what is true or right.

Science can be used to self justify. Try it! You can split into groups, try to settle questions with science and without it, and see which group succeeds the best. You can even use more than a binary split!

Why is this invalid for science, but valid for philosophy (or even "reason")?
