My understanding is that it is a physical property, arising from the fact that crustal basically all crustal growth occurs in ocean floors .

The locations of the continents spend the vast majority of the time either approaching a clustered state, or leaving it.

Because the thick continents with land are a minority of the surface [2], They only briefly pass through a period of even dispersal when passing from one clustered state to another.

>My intuition says that in an Earth-like sphere, with 29% land and 71% water, there's a high chance of there existing a hemisphere with almost all of the land

Can you explain more? If you have 7 or so plates with land, why would you expect them to have a high chance of being in the same hemisphere? The math is the same as flipping a coin 7 times. Flip the first and see which side it lands on, then flip the remaining 6 and see how many match the same hemisphere. What am I missing?

> Wordsmithing is annoying and not really productive work

True in the context of sitting at a desk and writing. But during a quickfire conversation, I find it incredibly satisfying talking to someone who crafts vivid imagery and uses wicked turns of phrase. I wonder how much LLMs like ChatGPT et al will help or hinder our ability to wordsmith in realtime. Will there be a measurable "ChatGPT" effect on literacy skills in 20 years time, I wonder.
I used to report auto sales as part of my role as a business analyst more than five years ago. During that time my editor used to chew me out for including Tesla sales, saying quantity > quality. The amount being sold at that time was of course, dwarfed by ICE sales (still the case even in Cali) and there weren't as many competitors in the EV scene.

Sometimes I wonder whether he still would be chewing me out for trying to deep-dive into EV sales. Just food for thought.
Sorry, in fact, I meant base station, i.e. 3 antenna and equipement, powersupply, network, microwave ...

> Same for arbitrary-precision calculations like big rationals. That just gives you as much precision as your computer can fit in memory. You will still run out of precision, later rather then sooner.

Oh, absolutely. This actually shows that floats are (in some sense) more rigorous than more idealised mathematical approaches, because they explicitly deal with finite memory.

Oh, I remembered! There's also interval arithmetic, and variants of it like affine arithmetic. At least you know when you're losing precision. Why don't these get used more? These seem more ideal, somehow.

If it is not auditable and the source code is not open source, what would dispel fears of a fraudulent election?

Virtually every other institution has lost credibility in public opinion polls. Why should elections be any different? The losing side will always cry foul, as they have for multiple elections now: 2000, 2004, 2016 and 2020. It is tempting to look the other way, when the one you voted for happened to win.

When measuring security by "number of boxes checked", yes. Unfortunately, these boxes are often overly generic, years too old, or both.

What's there to inspect (unless you are decrypting all TLS in a middlebox with a root CA trusted by all clients)? How would you distinguish a "normal" WebSocket connection (as used by many sites these days) from a tunneled SSH connection, for example?

If you generally want to allow your users to reach the broader public internet (or even just web), this approach seems completely futile.

I've spent the past weeks asking scientific stuff, enjoyed the conversation and saw its shortcomings.

Today, while cooking some rice, I started to chat with it about what my options are, with what I have in the kitchen, and it was a really great interaction. I ended up eating something valuable, and I have a new recipe for what I'm going to cook next. I don't cook. I mostly buy frozen vegetable mixtures or frozen meat and see myself rarely cutting some fresh vegetables.

For a moment the thought came to my mind about the possibility to use it to "entertain" kids, like have them ask questions and get answers, interact with those answers and just let their curiosity decide the path. At the end you could get a summary and the complete transcript, to see what your kid was asking about and which responses it got, so that you know what interests your kid and if it has possibly been taught something erroneous by the AI. You could even use it to prepare yourself for a conversation with your kid, similar to "how was school today, did you learn something interesting today?".

If this type of AI can ensure that the content is correct and the discussion is healthy, then this will have a huge market opportunity, where parents can hand off the mind of the kid to the AI to get answers to its questions while the parents do the chores. Magnitudes of orders better than giving them a tablet so that they play candy crush just to keep silent.

Let's assume that this would become a reality, maybe in 10 years, then in 20 years we would have the first 10 year old kids which have been partially raised or educated by an AI. I see a lot of possibilities for this to have a good effect on kids. Also assume that kids of interaction-poor families, possibly parents without a job, also get the possibility to interact with these knowledge machines, the positive effect on them could be even greater.
"If there is one lesson from the events of the past year, it is that open societies such as ours have an ability to adapt in a way that closed societies simply do not. Russia has turned violent and malevolent. China has grown more authoritarian and inept. Meanwhile, free democratic societies have united around the Ukrainians as they battle to preserve the liberal world order. "

The free, liberal world order. A myth that doesn't exist but needs to be preserved as an ideological weapon. The "free, liberal" world is responsible for genocides, invasions, bombings of civilians, supporting far-right dictatorships and massacres around the world. Meanwhile, the "closed" world invests in Africa and Latin America as partners and not as a playground to invade and plunder. The "closed" world keeps their billionaires and mega-corporations in check instead of being governed by them. The "closed" world applies rent control and considers housing a human right not a market variable. The "closed" world develops vaccines and distribute them at no-cost to underdeveloped countries.

The "free liberal" world order is a stomach-turning myth that needs to be put to sleep.
That's an interesting set of transition that I hadn't really comprehended. People used to be entertained by live performers in their local area.

Printing, photography, radio, film, television, etc have all increased the availability and 'quality' of entertainment available at the same time as reducing the number of creators involved. (Obviously there is some debate possible around quality)

Whatever the exact value, it's most likely much lower. At least you're not ingesting whatever is left in the meat which, by reading some of the responses here, seem to come with significant risk.
> This author/professor has a very solid point that English instructors being less lazy and grading on the process instead of the final result would go a long way in terms of combatting cheating and producing better writers.

It can create a believable made up process too. If someone wants to cheat themselves out of homework the only thing that could stop them is openai increasing the price after mass adoption.
It can also come up in simple control systems. A simple low-pass filter can fail to converge to a steady state value if the time constant is long and the sample rate is high.

Y += (X-Y) * alpha * dt

When dt is small and alpha is too, the right hand side can be too small to affect the 24bit mantissa of the left.

I prefer a 16/32bit fixed point version that guarantees convergene to any 16bit steady state. This happened in a power conversion system where dt=1/40000 and I needed a filter in the 10's of Hz.

Exxon did not cause climate change, consumers consuming the oil they extracted did. And as far as I know we were not forced to consume that oil, were we? Did they try to mislead people about the consequences so that they are less likely to reduce their oil consumption, sure. But it is ridiculousness to suggest that if only Exxon had not tried to mislead us, then we would have been aware of the consequences, stopped using oil, and climate change would have been averted.

It's both less and more specific than that. Subreddits are ideal (or at least best-yet) implementations echo chambers. A particular idiosyncratic groupthink emerges for each subreddit, and the platform then filters incoming communications according to it. Because it's gamified, people are actively competing to conform to the local cultures.

And here we are, where some guy believes that rekindling a prior conversation with a friend or acquaintance is psychotic.
This idea that life sucks because billionaires exist is a sad, small minded philosophy.

It certainly would be. So I think you should consider why else people say what they say.

People are more sensitive to changes, especially negative ones, rather than absolutes. It doesn't matter how many things are good. If things are wrong, they need to improve, and anything that impedes improvement is perceived as negative. If things get worse, that is a big negative score -- especially if somebody says "Hey, it was worse in the past, so be happy that it's not that bad".

A number of things appear to be getting worse now, and a number of it has to do with the very wealthy:

* We just had four years of a Presidency who was very intent on antagonizing his opponents. He is wealthy, and was supported by the party that appealed to the wealthy.

* Even with him (temporarily) out of office, the impulse that put him there is still present. Those same smartphones bring us a constant stream of people who intend to aggravate -- not just bad news, but people who want them to be unhappy.

* Some of that is driven by wealthy people who profit off that unhappiness. It drives engagement, and they sell attention.

* A lot of people feel that their rights are decreasing. Sometimes it's literally true; sometimes it's merely a threat; sometimes it's engagement as in the last point. It doesn't matter, for example, that white people are in zero danger of becoming an oppressed minority; many are certain that it is, and that drives acting out in a way that is harmful.

* It is difficult to ignore a threat with high consequences and low probability. It does no good to tell people that there's a 99.9999% chance that their children won't be shot today -- especially if it's coupled with people dismissing the ones who are shot.

And so on. My point is that it is not "life sucks because billionaires", and in fact life sucks because people think that they only thing they're complaining about is "because billionaires". That means nobody is helping as things get worse, and even standing in the way.
That makes sense, thanks. I guess the high end becomes slightly more expensive, while the low end becomes massively cheaper.

"Writing is rewarding. Writing is empowering. Writing is even fun. As human, we are wired to communicate. We are also wired for “play.” Under the right circumstances, writing allows us to do both of these things at the same time."

What if on day one you showed up to high school English class, and there were 2 terms on the board: 1. COMMUNICATION 2. PLAY

The teacher then said: "The most successful people in the world are the best communicators. This is true in every field - business, science, technology, medicine, sports, the arts and politics. The most successful people also have a love of play and get the chance to practice it during their work day. Whether its in business, the arts, or intellectual pursuits. Would you like to learn to be successful like them? Have I got your attention? Alright, let's go."

Although this would be a non-egalitarian and elitist curriculum , it would be highly appealing for me. I would want to attend a course like this, and I would forgo the author's offer to not attend and still get an A. I would attend, and get the A.

Surely we can improve course design so high school students aka humans 'studying life' can learn success, and it just so happens that writing is part of becoming your best self and reaching your potential.

Teachers could benefit from some 'marketing style' re-positioning and re-framing of the curriculum to what is relevant and resonant for students.

There is a major relevancy problem in the high school curriculum.

What if the gym teacher said: "today we're going to talk about Jordan. Best fadeaway jumper in the business. How did he do it? You're about to learn about one of the greatest players in history."

Or if the English teacher said: "Obama. Jobs. Musk. Why are they so persuasive from the podium? Listen up, because you're about the find out how they craft presentations that move millions of people and billions of dollars in product."

My high school English teacher let me write an essay analyzing lyrics in songs by the Doors as poetry. It was awesome, and I got an A.

i am not a doctor, i am a programmer, i used to be a microbiologist. the big problem with stuffing domestic or wild animals or humans with antibiotics for no good reason (ie without testing if they actually have an infection that the antibiotic can or should treat) is that it encourages the development of antibiotic resistance in _all_ bacteria in the treated animal/human.

it's only been 100 years since the very first development of effective antibiotics. before this, bacterial diseases were deadly. if we go on with this misuse, they will become deadly again.
> In: Who would win in an fight: a monkey or a dog?

> Out: It would depend on the specific species of monkey and dog, as well as the size and overall physical condition of the individual animals. In general, a larger, stronger dog would likely be able to defeat a smaller monkey in a fight, but a monkey's agility and quickness could potentially give it an advantage over a slower, less agile dog. Additionally, different species of monkeys have different levels of aggression, and some may be more inclined to fight than others. Therefore it would not be a fair comparison.

No lecturing in my case.
Yes, that's a deceptive graph, very likely intentionally deceptive in order to reinforce the clickbait headline.
Because of the nature of drought itself, the soil that has hardened/pancaked during such extended drought will take way much longer to remoisterize thusly less able to retain additional absorption rate of later rainfalls, if such storm is too short.

So, a second (and subsequential) round of storm is often needed before its evaporation period expires in order to better take-in the much-needed added water table, reservoirs, and snowpacks; such absorption rate is absolutely crucial to providing water to its down-luvial regions.

Otherwise, the only rainstorm (of any size) lasting less than 2-3 days during a drought isn't going to be remotely beneficial.

I see now how deep-rooted cactus thrive for such rare thunderstorm outbursts. Also that flash floods are rather prominent after such drought periods.

But what do I know, I'm just an hard-bounded 20-volume encyclopedia nerd.

I wouldn't be surprised if Elon blocks access to apps like Tweetbot since they don't serve ads and therefore provide no revenue to Twitter (and users are unlikely to quit Twitter altogether because of it). An alternative route would be to allow third-party apps as one of the "features" of a paid Twitter account--that actually makes some sense. In fact, I'd be surprised if Musk didn't do something like this.

In 2012 Twitter did not have as established a user base as it does today esp among media, companies, politicians, influencers, celebrities, so there's less risk of dropping third-party clients than there was back then.
CNET has been publishing garbage content for a while now. Look no further than their 'reviews.' I work with web hosting reviews and look at what they disclaim “While we didn't test the services, we did carefully examine each service's offerings and ranked them according to essential web hosting features.” (source: https://archive.ph/UtlsB )

They are writing reviews with no experience? lol.

I’ve never heard anyone complain about Netflix DRM, for presumably the same reason.
The issue isn't effort here, but that each backported fix risks breaking something else. People who want all the latest fixes can choose the latest kernel, instead of relying on backports to stable kernels.
> That's precisely my issue with React though - JSX is a DSL

React does not require JSX, so it's a bit strange to raise the same issue with JSX as with the DSLs of Vue, etc.

If one wants to avoid JSX, it's always possible to write pure JS:

return (<h1 className="sc">Hello {title}</h1>);

return React.createElement('h1', {className: "sc"}, `Hello ${title}`);
In my experience (not the views of my employer) the most important stakeholder for an EHR is the ONC (federal government). Design-by-committee requirements with the happy coincidence of making it almost impossible to innovate or disrupt the industry. They change all the time, requiring a ton of dev effort just to stay in business, which favors giant companies who can afford that "rent". Next is health system administrators (whoever decides whether or not to buy, directly affecting revenue growth). Next is insurance companies. For the amount of revenue they pull in, a shocking amount of practices/hospitals/etc are so financially insecure that if the payers drag their feet for even a short period it can put them out of business. Actual healthcare providers and patients are too low on the list and it sucks.
I agree it is totally unnecessary in this case, but sometimes truncating the y-axis serves a purpose. Many times it is for stylistic reasons, but also if the trend is more interesting then the scale, e.g. most stock charts truncate the y-axis because people don’t really care how much a stock has dropped relative to the value, but are more interested in the overall trend in the time period and the specific times when the trend reversed (I think, I don’t trade in stocks).

It is unnecessary to do that in this case because the scale isn’t that vast and you can easily see the trend on an absolute scale. However, this graph serves the same purpose as—I gather—stock charts do. They are interested in what happened while the trend was downwards, and the specific time at when the trend stopped (or at least halted).
Government is just "legitimate" violence.
