I think it's because students tend to either trust the academic hierarchy, or understand that they need to adhere to what they're being taught in order to pass the course.

When I was studying biology as an undergraduate, there were a number of religious students who vehemently disagreed with evolutionary theory, but would work under - in their minds - the assumption of this fiction being true in order to get decent grades.

The same may well be true of students being taught that woke gibberish like "egg parent" and "sperm parent" are the correct terms to use. Or they just accept it as technical jargon as they would with all the other domain-specific language used in their course.
South Korea's middle aged men are dying 'lonely deaths'
Linear in the sense you can draw a line, not a tree, through the usage - in terms of memory allocation, the linear item cannot be copied (ie create an allocation), or destroyed during its lifetime. The naming comes from linear logic.
Not arguing that at all - real estate is weird in that it’s much less liquid than other retail markets, and moreover buyers ie renters are at a further economic and information disadvantage. So some consolidation in the context of making the market more transparent and better regulated for renters to counter this _maybe_ should not be immediately dismissed if there is not a political mandate for more dramatic reforms.
WAY too many "Hydrogen is Coming Soon(tm)" people actually believe that a Hydrogen car is a regular ICE car with all the cool sounds, but you just fuel it with hydrogen and water comes out of the tailpipe.

It's easy for them to reason that way, because that would bring the smallest change to their world. They can just use their normal cars that make normal sounds and refuel them at their regular gas stations. But the car would be more environmentally friendly.

While in reality a HCV is just a normal electric car with a part of its battery replaced by pressurised hydrogen tanks and a fuel cell.
>I'm looking forward to progress on this.

As someone who is also bootstrapping things, I just want to point out this is not the encouraging comment you might think it is. 'How can I help?' is.

The maintainer of a project puts in the work of designing it, developing it, documenting it, and publicizing it... the last thing they want to hear is "cool, just keep doing that forever until it's good enough for me to adopt wholesale without lifting a finger".
The twitter comments are mind boggling
I recommend you try to do it -- it's a fun exercise, and will very quickly answer any remaining doubt why it can't be done manually.

We actually did that in university; the public key we used was something like 91 (not hard to factor). Wikipedia has an example with 3233, and that's already very cumbersome: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSA_(cryptosystem)#Example
> Yet despite what we know about prevention, skin cancer remains the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the United States.

> All of the active ingredients in the study noted above were absorbed in levels substantially higher than the 0.5 ng/mL threshold value cited in the proposed rule. However, without further testing, FDA does not know what levels of absorption can be considered safe.

Most common? It's also the easiest to see / identify. In addition, perhaps due to more and better testing, many types of cancer are increasing. Screenings aside, perhaps we have environmental issues (i.e., water, air, diet, etc.)?

To that point, do they not hear their own mixed signals? That is, "...despite what we know about prevention..." later followed by "...FDA does not know what levels of absorption can be considered safe."

Effectively: "Here stop skin cancer, but we have no idea what other harm(s) it might be doing."

Don't we have these Federal agencies to prevent such disconnects? Is this the same mindset that went into the Covid approvals and monitoring? It is the same agency, with the same history.
British here as well and I only heard about this a couple of years ago whilst looking for xmas films. It's generally unknown in the UK.
Yes, in the west at least they were a part of the dominant means for answering questions about the origin of humans at the time: the church.

“Evolutionists” should take care that dogma doesn’t replace broader understandings of science than they’re used to.
TBH? It depends on the kid. This article itself points out not all kids are the same. Sometimes it's best to let a kid try and observe. If they handle it well then look to what a next milestone might look like.

Always curious how Ada solves ABI issue with such optimizations in place.
They definitely were. Under Stalin, Hitler, Mao and Pol Pot.
Interesting design. I agree 99% with the choices. My only disagreement would be about not being able to overload binary operators. I wonder how the type system handles the inherent overloading of * for floats and integers. Besides this minor point, I totally agree with the design and intent!
It's not so much that the information got removed but rather they decided to not update the message. Failure of a new update is the signal that something happened.
Yes, I understand you don't believe the cards are magical. Everything you've said so far points to you taking them as some sort of psychotherapy, a way of introspecting with the help of some external tools. I think it's exactly like doodling on a piece of paper, but I'm ok if you disagree.

I think most people and almost every Tarot reader -- regardless of what they privately believe -- is going to "sell" you Tarot in one of two ways:

1. "oh, it's just a game! Don't take it seriously! Though the cards sometimes speak the truth... for example, my cousin one day was told that [anecdote]" <-- this take irritates me because it's the most dishonest. Be brave and take a stand! Either you believe there's something going on or you don't, don't cowardly hedge your bets.

2. "The cards are magical, there's a system to them, they channel the energies of [explanation]" <-- I bet most people believe this, or in the case of Tarot readers, claim to believe it for the sake of their customers. And it's bs.

No-one really claims "this is just therapy to get you unstuck, you could just as well doodle with a pencil, but let's use these expensive cards/sessions instead". Well, you are sort of claiming it here, but most people don't. I've never met a Tarot... uh, "fan", who claimed this, for example.
You're not a socioeconomic class, you're a single individual.

I'm visiting "blue spaces" every year, multiple times (I live in a landlocked country). I know for a fact (worked in tourism industry) that literally every socioeconomic class here spends a significant amount of their income to visit "blue spaces".

Yeah, the more affluent people can afford better places with more people working for their comfort, but that doesn't change a thing about the poorest just packing their car and going by themselves, staying in a tent right next to the "blue space" if they have to.
Good answer. Personal writing can also help you understand stressful events in life.
Great to see RAW is getting some mentions here.

His other stuff can be of interest too, like Prometheus Rising and Cosmic Triggers. It’s not that what he writes about is necessarily scientific or rigorous, but he offers a bunch of worldview building blocks that one can try and find very useful.
For the reverse of the reverse - no one in Germany actually cares about David Hasselhoff.
Last year, one of my paid domains (.ml) showed up as being free in Freenom dashboard, even though I had 3 months to go. I needed it, and since I know support is unresponsive, I paid for it for another year, because I wanted to avoid any kind of downtime.

Support answered after a few days and they corrected the issue. However I didn't notice that now my renewal date was now set to 3 months earlier than when I first paid for the domain.

Because of this, along with the fact that I didn't get a renewal notification email this year, and along with the fact that Freenom doesn't seem to have a grace period, my domain expired.

I went in my dashboard, paid the invoice, but the domain still isn't mine. I tried to buy it again, but I got an error.

I contacted support but couldn't wait for them, so I used another account to buy it (for free), and it seemed to work.

After a day or two I got this email from support, warning me against buying the domain with a different account, because I run the risk of getting banned.

From time to time, we have to limit free domain registrations and put in place blocks.
These blocks can be imposed for a variety of reasons including (but not limited to):
- the country from which registrations originate;
- the domain names themselves;
- the IP addresses from which registrations originate;
- the device from which registrations originate;
- the use of measures (such as proxies and VPNs) to hide your true location from us;
- a history of bad registrations in the account from which registrations originate.

You are currently blocked from registering any additional free domains.

For reasons of security, we cannot go into the precise reasons for this block. We also cannot make any predictions on when you will be allowed to register new free domains.

Please come back in a few days and try to register a domain again. If our systems still do not allow you to register new domains, you'll need to wait longer.

Please do NOT register additional accounts or use any other accounts that you may already have, as this will lead to these accounts being banned, possibly indefinitely.

Kind regards,

Freenom Support

Fortunately I don't have a website running on that domain, but I do have a secondary email address for non-critical accounts. This is dumb, I know. I got hooked because it was free, and then I thought it's better to pay ~$10 for a renewal, than have to spend a few days changing emails on many of my accounts.

After that email I did just that; I went through most of my accounts and changed emails. I've learned my lesson and I hope to have some foresight in the future.
Improve my nutrition. I want to lose weight, but I first need to fix my relationship with food. To do this, I plan to cook food myself and reduce preprocessed food.
The key is that it doesn’t take ‘a majority’ to affect change. Activists just need to be in positions of power, or put pressure on those that are.

The average person in ‘the silent majority’ is against all the ‘wokeness’ but won’t actually fight it. They’ll prefer to reassure themselves that no one truly believes it while doing virtually nothing to confront those who are pushing it.

As far as your HOA example goes, I’ve found most people really do not like being in one, but are relatively helpless when it comes to actually changing the association’s rules.
Almost everyone has taken an econ101 class but it will not reduce the cost of housing. At all. When large corporate interests control this many resources they keep the price pinned. Simultaneously the cost of building new property has gone up especially now that the materials and the demand for housing is collectively understood. Add in inflation. The price of housing will never be reduced.
I remember The Benny Hill Show was hugely popular outside of the UK too although I suspect it's declined now as it's very much a product of its time.
I like to write. Now that I am retired I usually work on a book project about two hours a day.

I started a private journal six months ago and tried to write every day. Then I stopped two months ago. I journaled today because it is the last day of the year, and felt much better after a five minute personal brain dump. It is very different writing for oneself! I hope that I do personal journaling more consistently next year because the process is very centering. As individuals we have a lot of stuff that other people either shouldn’t hear or wouldn’t want to hear. Personal journaling into /dev/null seems appropriate.
That's a good way to just get your account suspended.
I think it’s really important that parents make their kids financially independent. And if it’s just sending them a fixed amount of money every month as long as they are in college, without any other requirements („it’s not important what and how you do it, as long as you do an education you have xxx$ every month to spend. If you need more, get a job.“)

And they should pay all their expenses on their own. So they see how much they need, and that they may not be able to buy food, if they spend it all for gaming or partying.
This has got to be the only time in history that legions of non-Java programmers have stood up with united voices to bitterly decry. . . using a name that's terser and easier to type.
Exactly, they (government) can ask you to continue to update, you decline, they sue to force the issue. Highly unlikely the courts rule so quickly that at least one day goes by without an update. This is the signal something has happened.
>Corpos that compete with me when I am buying housing for my family can go suck a big fat dick.

Why? If they're willing to overpay for properties it will benefit the current homeowner and will encourage new development
This is true of every corrupt country. It's just how things are done. It's still corrupt.
That depends on what the purpose of the tax. If it’s to pay for local government services (fire, police, trash removal, schools), then why would you tax them differently?

If taxes are mostly punitive means to shape behavior, then sure.
So what individual do you think can afford to build $1 billion in rental homes? The parent poster is incorrect about what JP Morgan is doing. This will increase supply not decrease it.
The automation in this case would be a means other than live telephone calls to confirm/update crew locations and, no, it would not be a mistake to assume other methods would scale better.

You need to be very very very careful not to disincentivize people declaring safety issues. They should really just unwind the wrong incentive and handle it differently.
To implement every recommendation given to me by physiotherapists, to carefully record progress and to return to them for further advice.

I'm in my 40s and can feel my body starting to protest at my neglect of it. There's no reason for my musculoskeletal system to degrade until I spend my final years hobbling about in constant pain. Physios are great and their treatments can actually fix/prevent most of this stuff.
Copy that ;)
> reduce the cost of housing

yes, because JP is investing in a depreciating asset, lmao.
You can't really just choose a life of enjoyment unless you have the financial means to support yourself in some realistic way. Most fun and enjoyable work is poorly paid because there is an army of people out there who will do it for free/as a hobby/for the clout.
> You mean feudalism

I think you're spot on with this.

This seems to be the public establishment of a neo-feudalism, where the new barons are the megacorp capitalists, who can afford to strategize long-term and implement land grabs, while lobbying with governments to strenghthen their stranglehold on the people by capturing natural resources. Capitalist piracy, in a sense.

Now, I'm not a (neo-) Marxist in the strict sense, but this is too much in line with the Marxist understanding of the state as an institution that looks out for the interests of (big) property owners, rather than those of the people.

Fast forward a couple of decades, and we can project with some certainty an outright voiding the social contract that understands the state as a neutral institution that cares for the interest of the people, and reverting to such feudal-esque configurations.

And, for the record, no, I don't believe for one second that playing it the capitalist way and buying shares in megacorps has any possibility of having a positive counter-balancing effect. It'd be more like buying shares in slaveships, and partaking of the profits of the trade.
Is it due to the US being prudes and Donald Duck doesn't wear any trousers/underwear?
Don't overthink it. There's likely only a few things you can do locally. Pick one or two that interest you the most or that you think you can have the biggest impact on.
This is fantastically written documentation. What is even more exciting for me, that this is almost exactly what I was dreaming and talking non-stop about for the last few years. I never figured out the brilliant insight about redundancy of operator precedence. On the more embarrassing note in numerous implementation not-quite-attempts I always ended up gutting loops as a feature in favor of recursion and went with effects for capabilities (among other things). Then I was usually caught off guard by either of those or my other darling — partial application interacting in unexpected way (only for me probably) with linear types, which always punched me back to square one. Extremely impressed with how sound and grounded in reality your choices are. Fantastic job.
Did they properly cite the previous work of Trofim Lysenko? He was the first to indict Western geneticists as "fly lovers and people haters" who promote imperialism and bourgeois false science. Failing to cite his work in this context is flagrant academic dishonesty.

Interfering in the market always makes the outcome worse because it increases costs for both buyers and sellers.

Crazy real estate prices are caused by NIMBYs blocking new builds - heavy interfering.

If so, who were the big winners?
They are naive - period. Home ownership is severely overrated. It makes it harder to change jobs when you need to move.

There are definitely people overplaying the woke position but language evolves.

I’m likely as old as you. Your arrows missed their target here.

If Jerry weren’t so identified with his language he might have read the paper and found a middle ground. Instead he’s located himself further in the opposite direction of where we are headed. Not that the paper’s authors know exactly where that is, either.
This is the best place to start. You can't outrun the kitchen.
Indeed, having watched the matches, I agree that Gerson was the playmaker of the team, the linchpin of the midfield.

But the legend of Pele cannot be diminished; he was instrumental in most of the goals scored, either as the scorer or by providing an assist.
It reminds of the typical “let’s take a complex thing and blow a tiny detail’s importance completely out of proportion”. In this case the complex thing is “happiness” and the tiny detail is “the fraction of time you spend watching porn”. So yeah, no reason to quit, unless you are a diagnosed addict. But to each their own :)
It's not quite the same in the end from the end user's perspective, no. If you were logging into servers running a recent-ish version of OpenSSH (i.e. newer than 2016), you would continue to be able to log in with your RSA keypairs with no changes, because the client and server would still be able to negotiate a signature algorithm that both support. It just so happens that very old versions of OpenSSH don't support any of the signature algorithms used with RSA keys that new clients prefer to use. In other words:

> or re-configure your OpenSSH client to continue allowing RSA even though the creators of OpenSSH have deprecated it by default

^ this is not correct. RSA is not deprecated by default. A specific signature algorithm used with RSA keys is deprecated. But yes, if your server is running a very old version of OpenSSH, that may be the only signature algorithm it supports.

I'm not sure there are any distro releases running versions of OpenSSH this old that aren't EOL though, so really you should probably update your servers, which would also take care of this. (I suppose if you're running CentOS 7 or RHEL 7 you still get security updates for the next 1.5 years at least, but it's no longer actively supported.)
This is a situation that will affect too many men worldwide as they are more likely to live single / be childless. The solution is to have communities or networks of people built explitictly around the idea of caring for others.
I live in an apartment unit in a 25 story tower. I rent it from a corporation that owns it. Would that still be allowed in your plan? Would the restrictions on who can own housing only apply to single family homes?
As a former landlord even in the very red business friendly Georgia, there are plenty of protections for tenants that make it almost impossible to evict anyone in less than three months.
This is where I think Australia’s compulsory voting shows its strength.

Every citizen has a responsibility to submit a ballot (either valid, invalid, or covered in dicks).

And the state (or in our case an independent electoral commission) has a responsibility to collect a ballot from every voter. Which leads to making it as easy as possible for you to vote, with early voting, mail-in ballots and heaps of polling centres.

The ballot problem is easier than you’d think though. Make effective corruption untenable, by involving a lot of people in the process. Everyone who can gain from the outcome should have equal presence as observers.

And the tangibility of the ballot is crucial, it’s much harder to make 10,000 pieces of paper appear or disappear than to flip a bit.
Banana republics are ones that US corporate interests installed after forcing out more democratic leadership. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana_republic#Guatemala
I believe you're right, it does seem to have had a significant effect.

Perhaps it's also interesting to imagine the societal changes if law and policy prohibited discrimination based on being disadvantaged by class, wealth and income. We may well edge towards a genuinely more equitable society, rather one that just pays lip service to it based on one's identity.

Though it's unlikely to ever happen, given the economic and political system we exist in. It would disadvantage the wealthy and well-connected too much for them to permit it.
Don’t take it as discouragement from being a generalist, in er… general.

Heck, I’m an automation enthusiast, but if that’s my only trick and I’m good at it, I’m out of work like next week ;)
It’s not the mega landlord that people have a problem with, it’s that the rent is too high. Land lording isn’t going to go away, so it’s best to focus efforts on reducing rents.
The problem isn't "trying to decrease the inequality between lower and middle classes".

It's painting the middle classes as the source of the inequality. That's what leads to the zero-sum thinking that lets the upper classes sit back and laugh while we fight.

Was the purpose of this article to paint that picture? Hard to say. But when you read a lot about smug Silicon Valley programmers and their six-figure salaries and how different that is from the poor people who have to root through their garbage (whoops, no, they made that illegal), and rather less about the very unsexy carried interest loophole and other means by which the billionaires of the world grow and maintain their wealth, the intention behind that disparity becomes less important than the impact.
