No, this was meant to be an intuitive example of weak correlation. It could have been about a correlation between the redness of a fruit and its sweetness. For the entire population of fruit, it is weakly correlated. For some apples, it is strongly correlated. And for tomatoes, there is no correlation.

Extreme medicine, which includes field, mountain, and battlefield medicine, is a specialization of general medicine. You can study it as a part of various programs. I studied it as a specialization in a general practitioner's MSc program in Central Europe. Depending on the region, it is probably possible to specialize in extreme medicine as a nurse or an EMT.

There was a wide range of GPAs in that program because success was measured by a narrow range of criteria that did not include things usually considered "academic aptitude" - mainly the ability to follow resuscitation algorithms in simulations precisely. Some of the things we were scored by automatically were time to ECG, time to defibrillation, correct callouts to the team, intubation depth and time, and chest compression depth and rate. And failing to execute a particular algorithm meant immediate failure. Every other imperfection immediately meant a reduced score, and scoring was entirely metric-based in simulators, not open to human interpretation.

Scoring just 45% of the possible grade on tests was considered excellent. You had to demonstrate very high competency to pass. Mediocre knowledge of algorithms or skills in resuscitation was unacceptable because that would severely worsen the outcomes of actual patients.

If you either cared about your GPA or were primarily motivated by your GPA at school or university, it was clear that this would be a very difficult specialization for you. It was more for people who excelled in algorithm following, composure under stress, and perseverance; and those who wanted a high skill ceiling.
A lot of organizations have this problem, not covered in the article:

> Anxiety, low abilities

I was once a software engineering manager at a company in the financial services realm. This was a low margin business that had suffered a decade of layoffs when I joined. It was a morass of low effort, punch the clock, do just enough to get by teams and leaders. Making any sort of forward progress was nearly impossible. I gave it my best shot though, and managed to find like minded people throughout the organization. We had a good couple of years and made some real progress. Then the next round of layoffs saw some of these key people let go.

It was very disappointing, but I too left after a time. After the layoffs, 75% of my remaining team quit for better pay. My boss, a director, gave me some support people who could spell "java" and told me to train them up, because we weren't hiring (no one would work for the company anyway, horrible reputation). Yep, that was it for me, I resigned.

All that to say, at some point it's a business problem. I hope others in similar situations don't stress as much as I did.

Anyone who believes minification counts as "proper" obfuscation misunderstands both. Minification is not obfuscation. They have different goals. Most "good" obfuscators are the exact opposite of minification: to obscure business logic they expand the code into sub-parts more akin to assembly language than the original logic. "Good" obfuscation is much more than just using shorter variable names everywhere.

Minification is especially not sufficient for obfuscation in a world with pretty printers embedded into every Dev Tools in every browser.

Minification is just about reducing the size of the output. Any business that truly cares about the safety of their IP should look into "proper" obfuscators.

(Personally, I don't think obfuscators are generally worth the build time and their output worth the extra bandwidth either, but yes there I understand that security theater generally beats performance concerns.)

I use sed and awk fairly frequently (and I'm familiar with the tools to the point where I got half a dozen problems into AoC with just sed once).

Most of what my sed and awk programs I write aren't supposed to be maintainable, but rather typically one-off stuff for-the-moment sort of thing. I'll grant it's append-only code, but if I need to do the same thing later (or something adjacent) I'll typically just write another oneliner since there's no real effort involved in it.

It's pretty much always more effort to write an actual script in some language like python, since it needs to be in a file and have a name and take arguments and so on.
I don't remember the name, but I had headphones, and stuff stuck to my head with gel, and glasses that would flash lights through my closed eyelids. The part I remember most is it taught me how to "relax" parts of my brain in ways I hadn't before, and which I can do now on demand without any hardware.
We should at least have transparency in the origin of the work. I care about the human experience, not the AI experience.
The problem with the marketing is that every ad I've seen for it makes it seem only good for making healthier, less tasty versions of food I like.

What it's actually good for is cooking some things faster than a conventional oven, reheating fried foods.

I have had success making good homemade french fries with my air fryer, but I still thoroughly toss them in oil before cooking them. The end result is not really much healthier than if I deep fry them, but it is a lot easier and less messy.

There's an argument to be made that news media in the 20th century was focused on delivering facts, and that objective journalism as we knew it then is dead today. This shift was accelerated by the 24-hour news cycle and eventually the internet, where the media was incentivized by attention-grabbing headlines, advertising profits and private investors. When journalism was alive, opinions were sectioned off and known as editorials, and the public could assume that everything else was factual information. There's no such distinction today.

Teaching critical thinking is important, but let's not ignore the deeply rooted problems of both advertising and the modern news media.

>To address your later point, intelligence does not equal knowledge.

This is just one of the many paths to the fundamental question that plagues this sort of topic, what is intelligence. Is intelligence the capacity for gaining knowledge or having actually gained knowledge? Or maybe not directly related to knowledge at all, though the previous question was more about the capacity to gain vs the gaining than it was about knowledge.

It is known that the capacity a single individual changes based on what they were exposed to (feral/neglected children being the extreme negative cases, I'm not as well read on extreme positive cases). But perhaps we aren't talking about an individua's capacity and instead we are talking some baseline genetic average capacity for a larger group that doesn't take into account environmental cases pushing it to either extreme? But in such a case have we not defined intelligence so that technology's impact is excluded a priori?
Food perishes faster han equity indices.

If there was a futures market in foodstuffs that basically keep forever and is cheap to store (honey?) you would see that the expected price of that food in 100 years would have some effect on the current price.
> fresh water is a limited resource

A river running through a property is less limited than its mineral rights. Water rights aren’t about access to a specific amount of water but about the right to a flow that gets seasonally replenished.

I’m not arguing that the way we do water rights makes sense. Just that it’s the way because it’s property.

What if we built a huge gulf basically down the plains just on the other side of the rocky's so basically there's a gulf splitting America into two completely by waters from the artic ocean or north pacific, I'm talking we dissect all the way north through canada all the way down through mexico etc. This would maybe create new weather patterns, in combination we'd need to plant LOTS of trees which also creates weather patterns to change, but we could terraform the utah desert to be more like the midwest, but it would be defense-budget costly to do so, but if it worked it could be worth it.

I fully concur with everybody suggesting you to not skip a university education.

Your future colleagues will thank you for it.
Ah, yup, thanks!

> The people who are complaining about this are not the same people who are restricting housing access.

The majority of them think that YIMBY is useless or counterproductive because only luxury apartments are being built. There have even been protests against this [1]. The main problem is that most housing advocacy is focused on taxing tech workers and using that to subsidize rents, which of course does nothing for housing costs, but does help landlords.

I live in a very rural area and I had a few minutes so I calculated it.

I live at the end of a deadend road that is 0.9 miles off another very rural road.

The road is chip sealed, which according to google in 2022 is $25,000 to $42,000 per mile.

There are 7 parcels that collect $6396 per year in property taxes.

At the low end of the chip seal price, it would take 3.53 years to pay it off and 5.9 years at the high end.

This assumes that no sales or gas taxes are used to fund any of the road construction, which isn't true.

US HUD segments homeless populations into three dimensions:

- sheltered vs. unsheltered homelessness

- chronic homelessness, where "chronic" is defined as a person with a disability who is "continuously homeless for one year or more, or has experienced at least four episodes of homelessness in the last three years where the combined length of time homeless on those occasions is at least 12 months."

- individuals ("households that were not composed of both adults and children") and families

As of mid-December, the US point-in-time counts of those were:[1]

233,832 total unsheltered homeless

348,630 total sheltered homeless

-

216,495 unsheltered individuals

204,897 sheltered individuals

-

78,615 unsheltered chronically homeless individuals

49,153 sheltered chronically homeless individuals

-

More than half of all counted unsheltered chronically homeless individuals in the United States in December were in California (44,120 of 78,615; 56% of total unsheltered chronically homeless, 7.6% of total US homeless).

You're missing the part where ~7% is already the average including the bear periods. During bull periods, the market increases by more than that average.

Between 2009 and 2021, the S&P 500 went up by 13.8% per year.

Between 2005 and 2022, the S&P 500 went up by 8.3% per year (which of course included some market crashes).

I don't think the demand is literally boundless, but I think the idea that we could easily outpace demand with construction to dramatically increase affordability is wildly optimistic.

I'd rather build new Dallases, or denser Dallases, than try to double the density of Manhattan, because it will both be easier to find/acquire un-utilized land to use, and because the amount of work required to double the density of Manhattan is much more intense, construction-wise.
Great, but in the words of teenagers everywhere, "prove I used it."

Do you use ORM or native SQL, or both? which ORM are you using and how did you choose it?
What do we do, then, in languages where noun classes are mandatory and (for animals) aligned with gender, and eliminating them would take a revamp of the entire noun morphology? The masculine-feminine-neuter triple of classes in German does occasionally allow neuter nouns for people, but in Russian a neuter term absolutely implies you’re an inanimate object (possibly a corpse).

French, which doesn’t have a neuter at all, can kind of get by with inserting ·e· because there masculine and feminine adjective endings frequently differ by a single e in writing, but the resulting hybrid is impossible to pronounce as the orthography reflects the sounds of five centuries ago.
It's cut my cooking time down by magnitudes, but even more so, my cleaning time. But I suppose it all does depend on the use cases. I, for one, plan on never having to wait for anything to preheat in my kitchen ever again!
I got into PCs around same time as you, but imho the best overclock came years later: the Intel Celeron 300A would happily run at 450mhz for a whopping 50% increase.

I was right into FPS games at the time, and for a while it seemed every second person was running the overclocked 300A.
Well, I would imagine that it requires designing a language which ordinary does not allow adjacent identifiers.

Of course keywords must not be allowed as part of identifiers (or there should not be no keywords at all like with Lisp).

Just an example of my head that I didn't think really much about:

function print person (p: person) {
var full name = p.first name + p.last name;
if p.middle name != "" {
full name += p.middle name
}
print line(full name)
for c : p.subordinate person list {
print person(c)
}
}

I think this syntax should be parseable with little restrictions (like your identifier can't start with keyword).
It looks like DevPi may just work as a caching proxy as well. I also found Bandersnatch too. https://github.com/pypa/bandersnatch which is a configurable mirror with allow / block lists.

Essentially want something like DevPi but add the package to the bandersnatch allow list and mirror it from then on. With some extra large packages in the deny list.

Probably possible to wire that all up reasonably well, but probably just using a caching proxy is 90%+ of the improvement anyways. So may just stick with that.
I’m not sure how this applies. Most joints are meant to flex, reducing the breakage of actual paving elements significantly. It also means that an area with significant heaving can be repaired more easily by only needing to service the affected area, and the repair has minimal impact to the surface quality, unlike concrete patching or pothole filling.
Congrats on the longevity!

My only suggestion for your site is that your homepage has a lot of different fonts at once. One for the header/nav, one for the main body/CTA, another for the podcast column headers and a serif font for the podcasts themselves. It may be worth condensing those and differentiating with size/color/weight instead of font face.

Over their lifetime, easily. The pipes for those will last 100 years, easily. The maintenance of them are paid for by the delivery costs you pay in your bill.

As for rural I think there's 2 distinctions. 1 is we need rural communities because they produce our food and other things. Secondly, rural areas are between 2 or more populated areas. We need to connect populated areas so by necessity there are roads. Rural communities are built off of those.

The other distinction where you may be closer is exuburban communities built into rural areas. These may or may not be fully covered. Not initially anyways, but you'd assume the property taxes would cover in time.

The fan is much stronger too, so not literally it. Changing two of the most significant parameters gives it entirely new utility that ovens didn’t and don’t capture.

In effect it’s closer to a microwave meets an air sous vice. Much quicker heat up, much more even heat dispersal.

I have a convection oven too that’s the same size, we use the air fryer 5x more often and it’s almost entirely due to the fan not the size. Cuts cooking time in half comparatively.

Does your over really take 30 minutes to heat up? Mine gets to 350 in about 7-10 minutes. It's a mid-range GE model. Nothing fancy. Preheat. Do your chopping, sauce prep or whatever. Oven is ready by the time you are really ready to put anything in it.
