I can't believe anyone truly thinks that social rules are all remnants of a past patriarchal society where woman had no say or something. I am sure woman always had a strong influence on social norms. Personally I think men have a much more flexible morals and generally are kept in check by woman :) but I digress. Anyway you can see in the past the temperance movement for example was lead by woman, well before they had the right to vote.
Second this.

There's also kind of an unspoken rule among the people here: if something is left on the road where it might be spoiled or destroyed, (and is not valuable of course), things are moved to the sidewalk so the owner can find them easily and/or are not destroyed by careless passers-by. I have seen a handkerchief that was tied to the railing at eye-level, so that the owner could find it easily when they came back to look for it.

If the thing in question is valuable (like wallets, cellphones), it will most likely be deposited to the nearest police box where they will hold on to it for a while.
I don't know German, I don't think it's in the best location for geographic and geopolitical reasons (see Russian invasion of Ukraine, energy crisis, climate change), my family and friends are here and I value that a lot (also why I haven't moved to Silicon Valley despite living in the US), I already own a house where I'm at and it would be a pain to move, I've never visited and I don't tend to move to a place I haven't at least visited first (I had an opportunity to go in 2019 to volunteer to work a booth for a friend's company at the Essen board game convention, but got too busy), etc.

Personally Canada appeals to me more and I might move there at some point (or at least closer to the Canadian border), but I can still acknowledge there being good things about Germany while having reasons not to move there myself. I do think I should probably move somewhere with universal healthcare before I get too old as I will probably have enough health problems that would either bankrupt me or wipe out my retirement if I stayed in the US, like has happened to several of my family and friends.
Wow totally missed that. Cool stuff!
Reminds me of a golden age (?) science fiction short story -- no idea the author or name -- about a spate of suicides and mysterious deaths among physicists who got too close to "the truth," externally caused by an alien force trying to keep humans in their petri dish.
Right, my point is, we've now introduced this new attribute for "browser elements" instead of saying now checkboxes support background-color, color, etc. And let the designer do the work.

Lean on the primitives we already have, enable flexibility, and if someone wants to make a SaSS wrapper or CSS function to do it, enable that vs. more random places for browsers to diverge on "standards".

It plays out like this:

"Oh, I wanna change the UI element style, thats a new feature! Accent-color! Nice. Oh wait, browsers are doing different things. Dang. Am I okay with that? vs. "I wanna change a UI element style, Oh, browsers now support classic CSS styling attributes on these elements! Nice! Designers sets colors, all browsers just read the designer's palette.
Then don't use an open source or free software license. Write your own custom license (perhaps consult with legal counsel in the process) and use it for the software you create.

I don't argue that such licenses are bad (though the FSF might), just that they are neither open source nor free.
Yup, I think if any act was really passionate about selling cheap tickets this is the way. But it is intentionally defying the way markets work, the current problem is not because bands or TicketMaster are charging too much, it's that people are willing to pay these prices.
Terrible article and title. Anyone that knows anything about bears knows they aren't carnivores. Meat only makes up a portion of their diet and some bears eat no meat. Seems like the author has no knowledge of bears
Mutual trade absolutely prevents outright war, as evidenced by the fact that the US rapidly trying to become less reliant on china in case of such a war. It doesn't do anything other than that - it has nothing to do with whether china has a democratic government or not, it has nothing to do with whether or not the countries we trade with make policies favorable to our ideology, it just keeps everyone involved from launching missiles because the rational actors on both sides realize that it would be economic suicide, even if they would win the military engagement.
Yeah the whole monopoly aside. If $600 is the market / people will pay, that's the market.

Lets say the same band plays the same venue, but no ticket monopoly.

Everyone knows folks will pay $600, so they're going to charge it, fees or not.
That is a notably pleasant way to be taxed, though. I would appreciate the IRS more if their communications were like that.
I welcome a slump. I doubt it will be as big as I hope. My first home cost me ~2x my
new grad salary. Today homes cost 5+x a new grad salary. And it isn't because Millennials are buying up the market. Investors are buying up the market and making it impossible for run-of-the-mill families to own a home. I hope those investors lose a lot of money. It needs to hurt bad enough to settle into long term memory and discourage such behavior for generations to come.
Property taxes vary all over the country. They also can vary wildly if you have an older house vs new construction.

In Seattle, where the housing market is considered expensive, a 1.2m house only pays $7k in property taxes
From https://chromium.googlesource.com/angle/angle/+/main/doc/dEQ... it looks like drawElements (dEQP) is:

> drawElements (dEQP) is a very robust and comprehensive set of open-source tests for GLES2, GLES3+ and EGL. They provide a huge net of coverage for almost every GL API feature.

So this is some CSS Acid test for OpenGL Embedded Systems (GLES).
There's a limit to how well you can know your students' writing styles if your classes are large. If this is something we want to change, the obvious path is to stop expecting a single teacher to grade 150 essays in a weekend.

Fire 20 admin, hire 40 teachers (more or less, depending on the size of you district), then see how many AI's slip through.
Demilitarized Zone

Basically saying that the agreed upon norms are acceptable to some women because they feel like they benefit from the effects.

Another example would be monogamy, women will treat another woman that cheats harshly because of the worry that their partner will cheat. By policing their in-group they reduce the risk to themselves.
I don't understand - why can't a venue run its own tickets?
Much like his AI textbook, this post was well written.

I’m curious if Rust would fall under any of the categories for languages to learn. I already know Lisp, so that knocks out two categories at once. Perhaps Rust fits his parallelism category nicely.
> Either you're going to be the type of person who thinks it's shameful, or the type of person to ogle them and make them uncomfortable, or the type of person who now has to try very hard not to ogle them. None of those are good reactions. Personally if I were in a place with topless women I would leave. Not looking would take too much willpower.

Are you certain that shame and ogling are the only reasonable choices (while on a topless beach)?

Also, the latter seems like the result of objectification (the focus of the article).
So the argument isn't actually about collecting biometric data, but it is about being really good at collecting biometric data?
Dunno how the hell one would not expect this to be be highly illegal. The guy literally wrote a software tool that covertly sends images from an unsuspecting device's camera to his personal servers, and installed+activated it on target machines belonging to the US's 3rd largest company by market cap in 2010 (now 1st largest). I get that in the pre-Snowden world, it felt like you were building a cutesy proof-of-concept to showcase to the world the possibilities of invasive mass surveillance, but that doesn't change the duck test that you actually built the mechanism and deployed it.
Why do people still believe that lie? That deregulation leads to a market environment that wont just be dominated by existing whales.
7th graders are highly unlikely to produce writing of such a great quality that it "cannot be graded". Maybe when Hemingway was in the seventh grade. And we can grade subjective things all the time. You can grade code based on something other than whether it runs efficiently, for instance.

Meanwhile, your prompt sounds like hell. And is far more subjective than the previous one.

> Convince your best friend that Slaughterhouse Five is a terrible novel.

So, before you even start the assignment, you let the teachers dictate the position that someone has? And you're not going to teach students to assess themes in books, so what will they judge Slaughterhouse Five on, aesthetics?

> Cite the text any way you please

Why on earth would you change that requirement. "Cite the text using method X" is a direct analog to "Coding standards dictate this naming convention". I would fire a "free thinker" who refused to adhere to the, sometimes arbitrary, standards for communication with the rest of group. Standards are good.

> ideally by comparing it to a book you think is actually good."

As a rule, I don't think convincing someone that a work of art is "terrible" should be done by comparing it to something else you "think is good".

> [No page limit]

You can trust an adult with that, but a seventh grader? Usually they need a page limit to encourage them to write more.

It seems like the following a complete essay that you would have to grade very well: "Slaughterhouse Five's lack of elves makes it terrible, because fantasy novels are just better and books like the Lord of the Rings have elves which makes it a good book [Source - My conversation with Johnny yesterday]"

Grading that well would be bad because it's horrible in every way.
A study that was bought and paid for by the people that marketed and sold mealworm pizza. Yeah, totally not biased in any way.
I don't believe, as an ex-English teacher, that any teacher thinks a student is 'acing' their essay if that's not shown in their other writing.

Little Johnny, with his poor spelling and grammar, does not suddenly turn in an excellent paper with exemplary grammar, spelling and punctuation. So unless they teach computers how to screw up in the exactly the same way that Johnny does every time he writes a sentence, any teacher worth his salt is going to know it's not his work.

As for those with excellent writing skills, well, they have less need to cheat but even they would be sussed out with in class essays and assignments.
Yes! If you right click on any .md file, and goto 'open with' you get all your options, and can configure the default. I hope that helps.
The article makes a HUGE assumption.

They spot an inconsistency between two prices, and decide that the fair market value must be the very highest part of the spread. Anything under this is therefore "under-priced".

Is it not possible instead that people are overpaying for the popular ones through sub-optimal bids - instead of simply assuming that only these inflexible/least sophisticated bidding strategies represent the fair market value.

They actually go further. They assume that AWS could realize this value, and that encouraging more flexible bids through tooling etc. would move everyone to the top of the spread, instead of smoothing it out towards the average. And that what is essentially a price-increase can be achieved without hurting the overall value (price-performance vs. flexibility). Given the entire point of this is auctioning unused cycles at a discount, clearly any overall increase would decrease the overall demand.

Having said this it's a great article. I think the overall quality of the article made it so surprising to see this missed.

I regard your objection as naive.

The National 55 MPH speed limit shows the federal government, through the power of the purse, can have a strong influence on state traffic laws.

The history of zoning shows how the State Standard Zoning Enabling Act - a federal work - can influence the states to change.

There appear to be easy ways to tweak judge2020's proposal to make it better reflect demand, but I don't care to argue that issue.

> AHJs imposing restrictions on themselves

judge2020's point is that zoning laws support current residents, not future residents, so AHJs have a systemic bias against making these changes.

judge2020's proposal is to look towards the democratically elected bodies which have a wider scope.

As a concrete example, California recently made it easier to build mother-in-law units (ADUs in CA terms), by reducing the requirements cities and counties can enforce. See https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbesfinancecouncil/2020/03/12... . This law is why I mentioned mother-in-law units as an example.

That change in California law has no constitutional issues like what you are opposed to.
Yeah, we're on hackernews so I assume most people on here are making a healthy dev salary so hopefully my comment isn't in bad taste, but I've done that with TaskRabbit.
> We already have premium high resolution GPS. Its for military use only.

So what, throw down an RTK pod and now you have like centimeter level accuracy. That's stuff anyone can buy for COTS drones, I'm eyeing on it for my DJI drones.

The only thing needing realtime in-flight accuracy of that level without an RTK pod is weaponry and maybe cars outside of road (because on road, they can augment GPS with camera data and road mappings).
Real work values the ability to write clear proposals and designs, which isn't far from an essay. Even in tech jobs. Sometimes I'm given a doc that takes so long to understand that it'd be better to just ask the author. There needs to be some way to teach writing skills, whether it's essays or something else.

My real gripe with English class is that probably 95% of my assignments have been about fictional work where I'm supposed to describe a character's emotions or explain what the author meant by something. And seemingly the most boring books possible. It was useless and repetitive.
I've tried doing this myself for company related compliance testing which mostly is bullshit anyway and doesn't apply to me. GPT3 is better used as a tentative backup tbh because it sometimes gives wrong answers or strange answers similar to how the images and video produced from Stable Diffusion and the like are strange and dreamlike or just impossibly wrong.
Can you provide a source that Ticketmaster keeps extra money? I would find that unlikely.
The idea of the story? Of course.

But the actual story as told? The regularity of civilization collapse was rather central to the people in the story.
I've had my last straw moment with tensorflow some time ago. JAX has been an a pleasure and Im never looking back. It got to a point on my team where it was just easier to rewrite our entire distributed training infrastructure in jax with pmap than coerce TF2 into doing what I wanted it to.
I’ll let you in on a secret: attractive people actually like being looked at, it’s a sign their work paid off. It builds self esteem.

As a corollary, it is rare for someone to want no one to find them worth looking at.
Well yeah, because ControlPersist is just “make session creation fast” by multiplexing them over a single SSH tunnel. So you still have “ssh internal session creation” overhead but the tcp and ssh handshake is the slow part. The speed gap between pipelining with ControlPersist and Mitogen is small enough that it’s, to me, not worth the bugs and limitations of Mitogen.

I do get the annoyance of your script though.
They called it pretty well in 2005:

Sounds like Three Body Problem. Not golden age though.
Git Merge 2022 – that’s a wrap
Not in the same vein as the discussion, but something as simple as a Pi pinging https://healthchecks.io/ or a similar tool could work well for your needs.
Yeah I tried to ignore that, and I know it's not constructive to complain about it here, but I couldn't finish the article because of its writing style. Is there an audience this is appealing to?
The west does not, generally speaking, support government industrial policy. That is, neither the US and EU political sphere thinks that guiding industrial activity (setting priorities, etc) is a good use of government power. Instead, our political philosophy is that "the market" is the best mechanism to sort such things out.

This is, of course, a gross generalization with lots of exceptions. Especially in the realm of "defense" technologies. But given this philosophical trust in markets to determine the whos, whats, whens, wheres and hows for industries, they tend to intervene late or weakly even when the public clamors for action.

Also... this philosophy has created the wealthiest societies in the history of humanity. And while past performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance... it's certainly something.
It also appears to be similar to Jakobson phatic function (checking if the channel is working).
Yes, this is basically because it's undeliverable without doing some absolutely unbelievably stupid stuff. It'd skewer any idea of a trade deal with India (as Truss demonstrated), it would collapse our higher education sector which is heavily subsidized by international students, and it would cause massive worker shortages in both the City of London and the NHS.

It's one of those "people want lower taxes" - "Ok, which public services do you want to cut?" things. They want immigration down to the 10,000s, but no one actually wants to prevent any individual migrant.
I'm really thankful I had a chance to work at 1 Infinite Loop during that time. I worked with other Developer Relations folks in IL3, with near-daily trips to IL2 to either meet with folks on the QuickTime team or just hang out. Occasionally I'd get early glimpses at things like QTi and HyperCard 3.

I vividly recall the day Steve introduced the iMac in the Infinite Loop quad. If I had to pick a day that telegraphed Apple's future fortunes, it would be that day. Rhapsody's potential was compelling, but as Macintosh OS it was still pretty Crapsody at the time. The iMac was a Real Thing — as friendly as computers get, that only Apple could've created and sold.
Nothing to take away from all of this, but please learn cURL. Postman and all its alternatives are great and all, but they also hide a lot of things that will hinder your debugging skills. As an alternative try httpie. Not because CLIs are cool but because you can see the headers and the raw response more easily. Developers need to understand what content type is, what response headers are, how to limit them, how to tweak them. And the snippets that Postman provides are not always the right way to send requests in a given language
I think the premise is wrong because:

- "tickets are prices too low": What do you mean by "too low"? Is the price that's set by the people involved low? Or is it what they think the value of the ticket is?

- Can you imagine if bananas were now $50 per banana? I mean, if there was only ONE company selling them, it would actually probably have already happened. So that would ultimately be the "market value".
Yah you just force ID and you can trade back your ticket. Only get refund if they resell it.
Oh wow, I've been working with ansible for a few years now, how have I not seen this before? I've even searched for it, but I didn't know what it was called, so...

Do you know if this behavior can be enabled per-role, or even better, per-task?
> The problem with students isn't that they can't follow directions or collaborate; it's that the hate school and don't want to be there.

I'd say it's a mix of both.

> That's why they're using GPT-3 to fake their essays.

I'm not actually sure about the motivation for most students. For students who I've caught using copilot on assignments, it's not because of the reasons you cite. Maybe it is for others.

> It cannot be fixed.

The main improvement that would fix most of this is to have higher teacher to student ratios. That alone would be a massive improvement, because then teachers would have time to engage students at a different level of attention.
Does any one have any links to some good writes ups on this being used in a bigger environment?

Anyone want to post their experience using it here?
Does the latency of video conferencing feel more annoying to Japanese speakers? I know that in English, it’s most noticeable when waiting for potential replies or when trying to interject. It seems like it could really mess with aizuchi timing.
Cars have the scheduling built in.

Unless you buy an electric car from one of the companies that is actively promoting gas cars and trying to make their own electric cars super crappy in hopes the entire concept will fail. Meaning, any gas car maker.

Yes, scheduling saves money. But even paying high electric rates during peak hours can still be way cheaper than gas, depending on what exact rates we're talking about, which varies by location.

But the plug has nothing to do with scheduling if you just use the car's own scheduling or plug/unplug yourself.
I was a T.Rbbt back in the SF Bay Area, over a decade ago, in the early wild west days of the "gig economy;" one of my first gigs was to "throw away a bunch of old electronics." As a diehard Apple fanboy, since 1991, I was excited for even the opportunity to throw away old history (knowing nothing more than "old electronics").

Upon showing up to a nice top-floor suite near Delores Park, I knew immediately that these would be nicer "old electronics" — turns out it was a BUNCH of PROTOTYPE Apple Computers (no "LISA," but plenty of history and unique items, given their hacked-together nature); 'WOZ literally had his hands on at least ONE of these,' I remember thinking; 'CERTAINLY!'

I mistakenly told the disposer of this "old electronics" just how cool all this HISTORY was, to which he immediately realized that I wasn't going to be throwing any of it away. Needless to say, he accompanied me to the junkyard as we both watched Apple History get run over by a skidsteer.

Just tragic. PS T.R. sucks - gfkt Leah!
