>The real business of the club is service. Every time someone comes in with a problem, that someone's name, address and telephone number are written on a special five‐ by‐eight‐inch card. Unless the problem is too sensitive to be committed to paper, the inter viewer — who may be an elected official or just an active member of the club— jots down a brief description of it. I went through a stack of these cards, and the notes on them suggested the breadth of the view the Thomas Jefferson Democratic Club takes of the functions of a political organization. Here are some of the problem descriptions:

I agree with the other comment but I also believe in answering the question asked: global aviation peaked at just over 1 gigaton in 2019, before COVID-19 nuked the industry. It's trivial to figure out the carbon emissions because every kilo of aviation fuel sold emits a definite amount of CO2.

Obviously the trick is to own the companies that sell with the beautiful brochures, as is the case here.

40% of BH's publicly-traded holdings are AAPL stock. 11% is Bank of America. 9% is Chevron. 7% is Coca Cola.

https://www.cnbc.com/berkshire-hathaway-portfolio/

You could replicate 84% of the publicly-traded side of BH with 8 US-based holdings.

But BH trades at 1.5x price to book... not sure if it's really worth it. But there's some VC-style genius in his non-trading holdings (e.g. GEICO and railways) directly held on its book or its <1% public holdings.

https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/BRK-A/key-statistics/

(Though the asset value of the railroads, railcars, energy, pipelines, etc. (not even including liabilities) is about equal to its AAPL holdings, which is all asset/equity).

Overall, if you want a set-and-forget investment, I'd still say go for BH stock.

The sounds are synthed sounds (I used fluidsynth) and the haxophone just uses the sound pressure to infer velocity of the notes.

The mouthpiece is optional: you can blow on the neck of the device and will get the exact same sound. But as a sax player, I really prefer to use it with a mouthpiece blowing through it but without making the reed vibrate (so no sound). I find that it helps me maintain proper embouchure and feels more comfortable. And after a solid practice session, I still get that gratifying tingling lower lip feeling.

Thanks for the feedback!

Very interesting paper overall. However, the excuse that code sharing is "technically infeasible" is wearing thin nearly 5 years after the initial AlphaZero paper was released.
I can focus better on what someone is saying if I'm not looking at them. Sometimes it's detrimental because others think I'm not paying attention. If I do look at a person's face while speaking with them, it is most beneficial to me to look at their mouth and read their lips while I listen. But then I'm like aware that I'm staring at this person's mouth so then I'll fake eye contact by looking them in the eyes but blurring my vision slightly. I'm not sure if that looks weird, but I think people don't notice. Nobody has ever said anything about my eyes looking odd. Or maybe they just think that's how they are.

I wonder if this is correct, and what's happening there if so - a modern CPU (even a mobile one) can do a lot in 1-2 ms. That's 6 to 12% of the per-frame budget of a game running at 60 fps, which is pretty mind-boggling for just processing an event.

The design says that it measures air pressure. So it's just blowing into a tube, much like e.g. the Yamaha BC-1. I've got one, and in the demo video, I hear the same rapid changes in volume/pressure. I would guess it could benefit from having a small, adjustable opening (like the BC-1), which makes it a bit easier to control.

> And it has been quite surprising to discover that, behind the curtains, Airbus employees are much less corporate than we might think.

It's depressing that this is surprising, and even more depressing that it gives him optimism about the behavior of Airbus as a whole. The behavior of corporations doesn't reflect the morality of the people in them. The myth that it does is consistently used to argue against the necessity of regulations and enforcement. "Hey, look at all these people working in the ____ industry, they aren't evil. Bad behavior is the exception, a rare perfect storm when a handful of morally bankrupt individuals randomly converge." No, indifference to good and evil is the rule, regardless of the morality of the individuals involved. Destructive strategies that result in profit will be pursued to the hilt, and individuals inside a corporation are helpless to prevent this without laws and aggressive enforcement to support them.
I could not agree more as a crypto bull. Please avoid regulating us as much as possible and let everyone involved be responsible for themselves. No bailouts, never ever. Participants will be forced to invent new ways to establish trust which is ultimately good in the long run.
Being in a similar boat to you (having left the UK in 2018) you won’t really find much is different on a visit except prices are a bit higher than you might remember.

A breast cancer vaccine shows promising results, UW study finds
For a large segment of the population, the act of covering the mouth (regardless of whether it's with a mask, a hand, or something else) activates a deep-seated submission reflex.

Different individuals submit to varying degrees, and in different ways.

Some people become very quiet and withdrawn, which can lead to the problems you describe when they try to communicate verbally while masked.

Others feel intense paranoia, and desperately seek out authority figures to latch onto.

Yet others realize that they're submitting, and it makes them feel weak and powerless. These are the individuals who often react aggressively when encountering somebody who isn't submitting like they are.

It's quite a fascinating subject.

I agree. Local skateboarding places that are free get pretty well-used. Hiking is still popular but requires a bit more time unless you live near somewhere suitable.

LAN parties don't have to be dead!

I went to at least a few during High School (~7 years ago) where we'd bring our towers to the library and stay after school playing games for a few hours. The librarian was very kind to sacrifice his Friday evening so that we could play video games.

Aside from that, I hosted a LAN party just a couple of months ago and plan to do another. Last time we played League of Legends, the old Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 (the iw4x project lets you host local servers), and a couple of others.
Nice pun in there about the WEB page.
Airbus have always been a beloved company in Europe. It’s the company we are proud of. It’s the demonstration of the European countries working together. I’m not trying to get romantic, it’s a big company with a lot of issues of course. But it’s a symbol. It’s a company you are proud to say you work for.

And I truly hope they will be smart enough to transition or to to help in the energetic transition because if they don’t, they’ll die. And it would be a shame when you are employing so much good engineers.

But I’m not sure they will.
Canadian dollars. I don't pretend to understand the reasoning, the insurers have their own logic. But anything with a battery (even PHEV's) seem to command a much higher premium; I was quoted $3400 a year last year for a RAV4 Prime.
IMHO developers who publish their software as open source but actually making it difficult to use their open source version , is doing them a disservice , because the first user experience itself is that of a feeling of deceit and is less than ideal. For example this one says there are docker components available for self hosting but it is clear the developers did not put as much heart into the open source version as they have done with their hosted or commercial version. It is simply better to be upfront about it.

>Old books do not sell

>For most authors royalties are not a thing and never will be.

Can you provide some numbers to back up these claims?

Also, I'm not clear on where you addressed my point that this would "long-term result in publishers offering less advance money." If it's that "if they stop offering advances they won't get new books" how do you know that they are already offeringing them exactly the minimum such that if they give them smaller advances they won't write more books? Surely it would depend on how much they think they will make from the sales? And what about self published books? Do you admit that those should not be pirated?

>None of that changes the fact that pirates are no different from a non-customer.

Do you mean on the avergae or in totality? Because there certainly are people who would pay but instead pirate.

>Equivocating about "reproduction" is just ridiculous.

That is what the law of copyright is.

>A library loaning a book out to a hundred non-customers is no different than a hundred people pirating a copy of a book or borrowing a copy from a friend.

Authors do not have conrtol of what buyers do with their books beyond the fact that they cannot copy it. That is the condition of the sale. It is usualy expressed something like:

>Copyright © [year] by [author]

>All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced, distributed, or transmitted in any form or by any means, including photocopying, recording, or other electronic or mechanical methods, without the prior written permission of the publisher, except in the case of brief quotations embodied in critical reviews and certain other noncommercial uses permitted by copyright law.

Basicaly I'm making two points here. One that authors do net lose money from piracy, and second is that even if not, they expressly told all the buyers that the condition of the sale is that they cannot reproduce their works.

As for real evidence for my claim, I point you to the Author's guild[0] which fought against google[1] providing for free copyrighted works even if it contained a link to their store. And it in general defends author's copyright. It "has counted among its board members notable authors of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry, including numerous winners of the Nobel and Pulitzer Prizes and National Book Awards. It has over 9,000 members."

The whole family of statistical paradoxes like these arise, imv (and perhaps that of Pearl's) due to a failure to distinguish between statistical and explanatory (ie., causal) analysis.

The whole machinery of statistics is insensitive to whether X causes Y, Y causes X, neither cause each other, or there is an intermediate cause.

To see this, take any graph with any statistical model, and flip the axes. The analysis is the same, but the direction of causation implicitly reversed. Indeed, take any of these paradoxes (esp. simpson's).

Nevertheless for much of the recent history of applied statistics these distinctions have not been made (esp. because it has been developed within the experimental contexts of dubious fields).

It is important to state however, that no technique or quantity of statistics is ever sufficient to credit any association with being an explanation. To credit any association with any scientific theory, and hence neither with any properties.

No quantity of associative statistical research into IQ thereby implies such a thing exists (cf. the reification fallacy).

To transcend statistics into science one needs experiments, those which can control variables, and hence provide a non-statistical interpretive framework which demonstrates these variables are explanatory, and hence gives credence to the theories which explain them.
I just looked, US News ranked ETH Zurich as #29 globally, but Univ. of Amsterdam is #39, Univ. of Copenhagen is #42, and then ten more European[0] universities before getting to the Univ. of Zurich at #67 overall. I scrolled down a ways further but didn't see any more Swiss universities listed.

[0] I excluded the UK but I'm not going to check which Nordic countries are EU members.

It's well-known that the US News rankings have their problems, but it seems like they'd have to be really out of the ordinary in order to support your claims.
From the time when I used to live in UK - You guys have almost no manufacturing and no tech sector. You are importing everything from abroad, yet there is nothing interesting in UK, no reason why I should ever want to get a work visa into the UK. Only thing which works is finance services, but you completely forget on that one during Brexit and you were concentrated on fishing which has almost comically low fraction of UK's GDP. So even the financial sector is slowly pouring away into USA and EU.

Despite your dire situation, you are keeping to make things even worse - See UKCA mark, return of imperial units, endless squabble with EU over Northern Ireland Protocol and threating a trade war, which would finish you off.

Thing is that you used to be interesting for investors (and for me personally) because you were country speaking English and connected to EU. So if somebody from abroad (USA, Asia) wanted to do a bossiness in EU, he would start in UK. That's gone thanks to Brexit and Estonia + Netherland took this role from you. Now you just become a hollow English speaking island which really has nothing to offer.
