It feels like this is just a play on words. Consider a camera connected to a monitor. The camera captures 24 frames a second and sends the images to the monitor via a cable. The monitor displays this "live" feed.

Is it really live though? There are multiple buffers and busses that the images have traveled through, sometimes even staying in one place for many milliseconds, as some resource lock is being acquired. Despite all this, would you say that the monitor is displaying stored data? Technically yes, but for all practical purposes no.
This seems intuitively true to me. Most of our conscious cognition works on and with memories, it's like a snapshot of what we think happened at any moment.

It's that feeling when you "discover" your reaction to something after the fact.. Like, someone says something unexpected and you've already answered before you become aware of what was said..

It also happens often whenever you're in the zone of doing something, you really get to take the backseat and watch the trip.. Like playing very fast paced videogames like devil daggers, you're observing yourself from a distance, as the stimuli is processed, and you make judgements on your reactions, notes for next time and so on.. Which demonstrates this temporal disconnect between your actions and your experience of them clearly.

> underfunding

This is a decades-old talking point that simply isn't true and hasn't been for years. Funding levels keep breaking records year after year.

"K-12 per-pupil funding [in 2022-23] totals $15,261 Proposition 98 General Fund—its highest level ever—and $20,855 per pupil when accounting for all funding sources." [0]

"Reflecting the changes to Proposition 98 funding levels noted above, total K-12
per-pupil expenditures from all sources are projected to be $18,837 in 2020-21 and
$18,000 in 2021-22—the highest levels ever (K-12 Education Spending Per Pupil)." [1]

How hard is it to not track people? Will I be tracked even though I got no consent popup and therefore didn't provide it? (I block those on principle). Why even build something so pretentious about GDPR compliance yet you do the dirty things everyone else does?
I had a similar experience with booking.com. I booked a place in Australia and when I got their I found it was a house run by a junkie who chain smoked inside. I cancelled it on booking.com but they refused to refund me because their policy is that they will only do that if the provider agrees. That was the last time I used their site.

Agoda also have a scam going - where if you elect to pay later in a foreign currency then they add on a 17% service charge which is hidden in some fine print which I still haven't found. This is illegal here in Australia and I am contemplating taking them to small claims court over it. The amount is small ($100) but I would like to set a precedent.
Don't forget your demographic adjustments! The ~5% of Fortune 500 Board seats held by Asians corresponds roughly to the share of the population that's Asians who are citizens, fluent in English, and in the age bracket for that kind of position.

Even so, violence isn't so much the basis for society itself, just the govt. And either way, it's only how outliers are dealt with. Most of what most people do all day every day is constrained by things like their family and peers' expectations and their commitments.

I am not debating the efficacy of a particular vaccine and I care not for your rationale -- save your breath.

Your arguments, however you feel may be justified, are not in favor of vaccination, and by definition are anti-vax. Ask yourself what would need to be different for you to be in favor.
When you willingly refuse to get vaccinated, and are thus more likely to catch and spread COVID, shouldn't we make you pay for any lives you've contributed to taking away?

Gitea is a great piece of software. In fact, when starting out with self hosting, I found it to be a very capable solution with a small footprint.

Over time I realized: I don’t need to be able to merge pull requests and do code reviews in a web interface. Nowadays I’m invested in a plain Git/SSH setup with cgit as a web frontend and email patches.

It never breaks, is as secure as your server is and does everything you usually need, including user permissions.

The `git am`-based workflow is less than popular outside of FreeBSD, Linux kernel development and SourceHut though. Depending on your environment, if used in a work setting, your colleagues may balk.

That being said and given the existing enterprise users of Gitea, it’s entirely natural to eventually offer solutions tailored to their use, like SSO. I wish them the best for building towards a sustainable future while staying true to their core values.

> Male students face structural barriers when it comes to college acceptance, to the point where a woman is ~50% more likely to get a college admission.

As far as college acceptance itself, the norm is for colleges to apply a lower admission standard for boys than they do for girls.

The structural issues are elsewhere, such as the emphasis on GPA and the related emphasis on grading for effort without caring whether the student knows the material.
I know this isn't true because of my own experience.

I've always been bad at math, I failed precalculus multiple times in both highschool and college, I never got past my first year of calculus in college, I wasn't able to pass descrete maths, and I never took an algorithms class but, never the less, I am applying statistics to novel problems at my day job and people are lining up to work with me and my career growth is accelerating faster than those around me who certainly got better marks than I did.

How is this possible? I'm not entirely sure, however, it indicates that academic tests don't actually measure ones ability to apply themselves and their knowledge to real problems that people actually have outside of an academic setting (i.e the real world), which I believe is the primary point in the "anti-testing" narrative.

I'm with CleverLikeAnOx on this. I known it goes against the prevailing HN ethos, but more-features-more-monetisation does not necessarily produce the best product. (In fact, I don't think it will ever produce the best product.)

Think of those tools that you've really enjoyed using - perhaps the mid-range HP calculators, or a great fountain pen or knife, or even a spanner that just fits perfectly. These are all tools that have been designed with a clear idea of their purpose, and their design has focused on that purpose.

A great chef's knife doesn't incorporate a bottle-opener - that could be added but it would be a less usable knife.

Memorable products have long life-spans. Users treasure their fountain pen, often for life. I'm still disappointed at the loss of my HP11C. But who is going to mourn a programming language or front-end that drops out of favour because it's grown unusably big and cumbersome as the designers increase scope. When it comes to their next project, users will consider something cleaner, something that does all but only what they need.

""small size" and "usable keyboard/UI" are mutually exclusive"

Not at all, before the smartphone there were several phones with very usable keyboards, I think it's just that a quality keyboard can't be made for cheap and/or in a small production run.

I really wish there was something like one of those old phones with either arm or risc v and 4G. I don't need it to be capable of doing phone calls, I just want a small cellular connected pocket computer with a great keyboard.
I see two features that Airforms has that Retool doesn't:

1. Airforms can be self-hosted

2. Airforms creates a database diagram

Honestly I'm not sure #2 is useful. I've been working heavily with database for 20 years and have never found one to be useful. Laypeople might feel differently, and it doesn't hurt to have it, of course.

Beyond that, Retool has all the features that Airforms has and a lot more. Retool is genuinely amazing and a mature product. I've used it extensively.

That said, Retool is expensive and not great for non-coders. If non-coders can really use Airforms effectively, then that's a big differentiator. The price is too, of course.
Surprised it both took them so long to decide to rollback and that the rollback lasted so long.
A better language would enforce those boundaries. In python you can't, not without making it a completely new app. And when you first is in the situation, it's virtually impossible to separate compared to for instance java.

It's always easy to say "just be better and more diligent programmers", but that doesn't work. If the language promote spagetti, spagetti will be written.
I recently searched "best chair posture" and was saddened to see almost the entire first page as affiliate blog top-10 garbage.

> If colleges only looked at GPAs, high schools would inevitably give in to the temptation to give away perfect scores like candy, and students from schools retaining some shred of dignity would suffer for it.

All three of these things are already happening.

For example, the Cal State University system has purely objective admissions for most campuses. That's good! But while they technically consider SAT scores, the last time I looked the difference in admissions points between a minimum SAT score and a maximum SAT score was roughly equal to the difference between a 2.0 GPA and a 3.0.
It creates bad outcomes where students retake classes in the summers as a profession and game the system.

It also puts you at a disadvantage if you come from an immigrant area or poor area where your 90% will not count as highly as someone with 60% from the richest areas with a trackwork of success.

It really punishes anyone not rich and locks them out of elite universities and pushes most of the poor out of average universities.

A single test where everyone can study and pass seems more fair than basing it on things that can be impossible to change like where you grew up
"Dad, you were a FORTRAN programmer and physicist in the 70's, you could be a very well paid developer anywhere in the developed world... why didn't you?"..."

I'd suggest there is likely another reason, and if your father didn't actively think about it he probably understood it subliminally. Back then, programming was part of mathematics at many universities and, like it or not, everyone doing science and engineering had to study the subject—and for many universities that was Fortran. Fortran was essential part of the background culture: if one was doing mathematics or any of the physical sciences, Fortran was just there—thus, one didn't see it as special or exceptional.

I had no option but to study it but I didn't see that as an imposition—diehards like me were regularly chucked out of the punch card room by the university security guards last thing at night when the joint closed.

Moreover, at my university the Fortran lecturer also wrote the Fortran textbook (well, the ones we used at least), so there was no leniency or excuse: Introduction to FORTRAN IV programming using the watfor compiler - 1968 & 1971 and Basic FORTRAN IV programming (version IBM 360), 1969—by John M Blatt: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_M._Blatt.

As I found out later there were better textbooks on the subject and Blatt was a didactic forceful character without much charisma, so his lectures were somewhat painful. However, comic relief was not that infrequent. We had Fortran lectures in a large hall which had an upper circle like a picture theater, a certain fraternity would frequent the circle and aim paper airplanes at him when he was facing the blackboard much to his chagrin. No, I wasn't one of the guilty but I fully enjoyed the spectacle.

> With regards to Asians in particular, many (most?) Asians can reasonably put down multi-racial since there has been much racial mixing within Asian over the past few millennia. Whether that jibes in a US elite college application is a different issue.

By that exact same reasoning, couldn't literally anyone else do this? If we start blurring the definition, why does it conveniently stop there?
Sure, but having more time in the first place would have opened up more options for alternative lodging. If you’ve only got 5 hours then you basically have to stay at a hotel within spitting distance of the airport, and that severely limits your options if something goes wrong.

One of those options would be to find a hotel elsewhere in NYC. If her check-in time was more like 9PM that would have been entirely reasonable.

The golden rule of travel is “shit happens” and that’s why you run a risk of all kinds of issues when you run a tight itinerary. When that shit happens, correctly assigning fault doesn’t tend to change one’s predicament.

If I had a weekend with a family reunion and a friend’s wedding in two different cities I would personally just pick one.

Typescript is different from C# in that it is a superset of Javascript. That is even a wrongly typed typescript is valid JS code. IMO it makes sense to allow bundling if that enabled you to get things like fast refresh. Sometimes you just want to make a change and see the result on browser without worrying about types.
If it's as you say systemic that boys do worse at classwork, then continuing to use that (a la GPAs) as an admissions criteria _is_ sexist. It would be akin to having a pull-up competition determining admissions knowing full well boys perform better than girls.
1) You cannot mentor and teach good judgment.
2) Management has virtually nothing to do with mentorship and teaching. It is more akin to having a garden. You have a particular type of soil and sunshine and rainfall (tasks, company culture, pre-existing teammates, etc) and you pick the right seeds that will flourish in this environment.
3) Books will teach you nothing useful, because they are almost always a) written by psychologists who couldn't manage a group of chickens let alone humans b) written by competent managers for the purpose of having a feel-good career capstone, not transmit actual advice. What they would tell you behind closed doors is virtually diametrically opposed to the platitudes in management books.
> It's obviously not economically viable to make chips in America, otherwise it would already be happening.

Path dependence is a thing. It might be perfectly economical once you get there, it was just simpler to establish in Taiwan for whatever historical reasons.
Sounds like a good idea if it really does it's job. But also be aware it's not a money making app. I could imagine my younger self to use it but not if it costs money.

Also be aware it sounds like an aweful lot of work to get info on all majors in all universities and also find a way to categorize them for better searching. Even harder it will be to keep it up to date.

So if an app like this is your hearts desire and you want to invest a lot of time in service for the community, go for it.

Another question I must ask, why should it be an app? Sounds like a great idea for a blog where you do blog posts one week after another, focusing on advertising one major and where it could be studied each time.
> IQ=racist, because we say so

The argument is a bit less stupid than that. IQ = racist because whites and Chinese have it while blacks, Puerto Ricans, and Mexican immigrants don't.

Is that reflected in different levels of group performance? Well, yes, but ignore that.
They definitely are. Remember they're going to kill adblockers next year and they are going to up the prices of YouTube premium.
For audio there's also OGG Vorbis, which is open-source and royalty-free and superior to MP3 at comparable bitrates.

Anecdotal: there are bad things to say about Airbnb... But (for me) their customer service has been top notch. We were twice in a situation were we had to rebook spontaneous, once because the the original host canceled minutes before we arrived, another time because the host was very generous with their descriptions and we found ourselves in a tiny room without AC and shared accomodations instead of an apartment.

Both times a call to Airbnb quickly resolved the issue and they even payed the increase in rent.
Thanks for the pointer, I'm going to watch that. Very curious. It'd be amazing if they make it work.

No you can't conclude this and in fact the more general principle is that being able to prove P(0), P(1), P(2), etc... does not mean that it's also possible to prove P(n) for all n. The property of a formal system for which this does follow is known as Omega completeness, but Peano arithmetic and ZFC more broadly are both Omega-incomplete systems, hence there are propositions for which P(0), P(1), P(2)... can all individually be proven and yet it is not possible to prove P(n) for all n.

Wikipedia touches on this subject with an article on omega-consistent systems, which is a very closely related property:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%CE%A9-consistent_theory

And this gives a very brief description of Omega completeness:

I copy an interesting paragraph:

"A notable result is that integration (in the sense of the Riemann integral) is computable. This might be considered surprising as an integral is (loosely speaking) an infinite sum. While this result could be explained by the fact that every computable function from {[0,1]} to R is uniformly continuous, the notable thing is that the modulus of continuity can always be computed without being explicitly given. A similarly surprising fact is that differentiation of complex functions is also computable, while the same result is false for real functions."

Are real functions not a subset of complex functions? Oh, if you redirect the output to R it gets harder, just like with finding zero roots.
