If we had vehicles at either end of the path already configured for positional radiation detection, sure. To determine what needs to happen could have taken a day or more, then a couple of days or more to get the equipment/expertise/calibration done.

You're acting like a very specialized operation is some day-to-day occurrence that they should have rolling stock and experts ready to go at a moments notice. That has no basis in reality.

Good writers can use big words well. Someone who has been writing for 20 years is able to reach for a precise word in the right situation, to get the right effect. 99% of the people are not good writers, and when they try to do that, it comes across unreadable in the best case and self-important in the average case.

Just say what you mean. Text is beautiful because it flows, the sentence might evoke the thing it's describing by its sounds or rhythm or structure. It's not beautiful because it uses big words.
I have had experiences like this several times also so it is interesting to look at an example from someone else.

Probing it about CenPCA it gave these two definitions:

"CenPCA is an abbreviation for Centralized Principal Component Analysis. It is a dimensionality reduction technique used in data analysis for compressing high-dimensional data into a lower-dimensional representation. The centralization step of CenPCA involves centering the data, making the first principal component aligned with the mean of the data. This makes it possible to capture the overall structure of the data and to highlight the most important patterns in the data set. CenPCA has been used in various applications such as finance, image processing, and bioinformatics to analyze large and complex datasets."

"CenPCA refers to "Centered PCA", which is a variant of Principal Component Analysis (PCA), a widely used method in machine learning and data analysis. The key difference between regular PCA and centered PCA is that in centered PCA, the data is first centered around the mean before performing the PCA, while in regular PCA, the mean is not subtracted from the data. This has implications in the interpretation of the results, as centered PCA can sometimes provide more meaningful principal components."

I would think there has to be something to this but it is confusing exact titles although I have had it make up python code that simply is nonsense also.

Another type of example I had was during a language philosophy discussion it recommended the paper:

"Language Evolution: The Hard Problems" by Morten H. Christiansen and Simon Kirby is a paper that explores some of the challenges and limitations of current theories of language evolution."

It was actually just a book called "Language Evolution" by Morten H. Christiansen and Simon Kirby but trying to find that exact paper title made me think it made it up.

I am tending towards becoming addicted to it still after massive frustration with it for things like this at first. It seems you just have to be careful when probing the outer edges of knowledge and to not get led down these nonsense paths.

You have to be kidding. The culinary professionals who comprise the editorial staff of any edition of Joy of Cooking in fact know more about food than the average blogger. The recipes in Joy of Cooking are tried and true. I have seen too many recipes to count online that call for completely incorrect technique/equipmemt/etc. I have not once caught one of these types of errors in a reputable cookbook or professional culinary text. It is rare that one finds a good recipe online, though the internet can be usefup for gwtting ideas for flavor combinations, food pairings etc.
The Stroustrup quote in that thread is better than what you linked to.

The concept was popularized by C++ templates. The idea is that the templated code would be just as good as if you hand wrote it without generics. There's no extra function pointers or virtual calls, extra indirection by pointing to some user data, etc.; the tree node or whatever and data struct are declared as a single entity, there's no runtime callbacks, etc.
you realize that organizations that develop open source software can sell support contracts, consulting, services, hosting, etc, all things that generate revenue.

I guess you could have said the same about RedHat, yet IBM acquired them for $34 billion. I wonder why they would pay that much for an open source company? Hmmmm... there must be a reason?
I’m not even sure how we know that, and I wouldn’t be surprised if there is something non obvious about it … like it’s an estimate of insect species presumed to be lost based on Amazon deforestation per year or … who knows.
vdom is overhead server-side too. When rendering HTML on the server you really want to stream longer pre-allocated strings as much as possible. The serialization overhead of converting many small objects to individual HTML tags shows up in profiles. And when you want low latency and the ability to handle high loads, it matters.
I wonder if the streaming services considered favoring longer songs to save on per stream fees.

This paper seems to answer the question of, "can SD, even just in theory, produce copyright-infringing work?" with "yes, it can."

Importantly, you have to simultaneously pull out of submitting information for ranking or metrics on your university.
Make up some reason that sounds nice for the politics of today such that you don't have to confront the truth that your university's performance has dropped substantially due to new policies you have adopted.

Most of the ivy league schools are now doing this simply because they are dropping the most, and hoping that other universities will follow them in dropping out (they typically do).
Or no one feels like it's a change worth celebrating, whereas there's a strong streak of culture (particularly in more liberal areas) that makes congratulating trans people on their transition/gay people coming out of the closet a social obligation even if you're neither trans nor gay. It's almost gotten to the level of congratulating a couple for having an infant. If you don't think it's worth celebrating you're seen as an asshole.

My wife and I are fairly traditional in that I work full time and she's a housewife/mother. Most people are mildly surprised that she doesn't work, and there's definitely been the occasional awkward social interaction where she was clearly being judged by other women (notably non-parents) for that decision. This is in an extremely blue city, I imagine if we moved out even into the suburbs things would shift.

Would you have a high likelihood of experiencing physical violence or death for being religious where you live?

If not, then this is pointlessly hyperbolic.
That’s the opposite of what is going on.

Would you rather die at 40 from a poorly designed car steering wheel that impales you in a 20mph accident, or get machine gunned in a trench when you’re 19, or live to 80 and die from an old age disease - like cancer, heart disease, or Alzheimer’s?

Because the only thing that’s inevitable is it will eventually be something.

And the stats show the current set of active ‘somethings’ at play.

Plastic or not may move one of the needles a few percent one way or another, but unless there is an epidemic of choking-on-plastic-bottles, it’s in the noise.
I feel like to answer your question you should be looking at the people going to the UK, instead of the ones leaving.

Either way London is still one of the best European cities for tech.
Context: Am LGBTQ person who also has traditional religious views.

Big disagree. You carry a pride flag in the wrong parts of town where I am, you'll get beat up.

Walk around preaching hellfire and damnation and at most you'll get a lot of annoyed looks and at best you'll get people cheering you on.

> In schools these days it's trendy to be anything but straight.

In high schools in my town people get beat up for coming out. A friend who went to college out of state was mocked because people thought he was gay, despite him being straight.

Also, you appear to have a misconception of what the LGBTQ acronym includes.

LGBA - these are related to attraction.
TI - These are for Trans/Intersex individuals and have nothing to do with attraction.
Q - Questioning/Queer. Can be used by those who don't feel as though they are properly described by the above descriptions, or who are opposed to them for some reason.

There are other letters, but for the most part they are subsets/synonyms of the above labels, at least as far as the use case here is concerned.
The terrible thing is, I think most of us in the UK expect this from the current government and there feels like there's nothing we can do to change that until next year, whilst chaos and corruption run free.
I always assumed that, since all heads of an assembly are on the same point over the disk, they would transfer data from all the surfaces simultaneously. If drives don't do that I'd say they are cutting costs (because a n-platter drive would need (n-1)x the signal processing power of a single platter one.

This drive behaves, and presents itself, as two drives and the head assemblies rotate on the same axis and each has access to half the platters. I would love if they managed to cram two full sets of 10 heads on opposite sides of the platters, but that would most likely confuse computers unless it's completely abstracted away by firmware.

Don't get me wrong I'm glad the React team is tackling the problem but it's telling that the answer requires an entire server side solution when other JS frameworks are able to solve this in the client or at build time. And just looking at those docs screams "patching over a fundamental issue" to me.
Co-founder here. Questions are automatically detected and tidied up. So, we un-waffle. Another consequence of this is that if there's a question like "tell me more about that", we often detect what "that" is referring to and 'expand' the question to something like "tell me more about your last role".

On the contrary, there is evidence that quite a few people are considering that.
IMO Incels tend to be people who would (if they could), at the first chance, jump at the opportunity to become sexually active. Additionally, incels tend to not value monogamy nor are strictly heterosexual. The inherent value of the individual they're pursuing is also different. This group tends to have a very low view of women (and men too, to some degree) as individuals with meaning, purpose, thoughts and emotions. There is a notable lack of care for personhood.

TC would be different in that the premise is opposite, that they're pursuing heterosexual monogamy and are voluntarily foregoing a life of sexual promiscuity in light of that pursuit. This group highly values the person they're pursuing and places a high degree of respect on the opposite gender.
This is the kind of take that only exists on HN and is obviously wrong flat on its face if thought through for even a little bit. Someone can and does have the right to tell dead baby jokes to a father who has just lost a child but that doesn't mean it's okay that someone should, and indeed in a civilized and social society there are guardrails to prevent that sort of thing: that someone would get rebuked and if they continue being a jerk, that someone would in some manner be punished or rejected from that local community.

We judge the content of what others find offensive all the time, and we even agree that it is subjective, different people of different ages, backgrounds, experiences have different sensibilities, and as social beings we understand and respect this. The internet of course throws a wrench in all of this because it's hard to enforce moderation on a local basis as we do in the real world. But that does not mean that the way we have been living forever goes out the window.

I'm not saying we should do away with free speech, rather just that we have to work through things carefully and slowly. My hope is that after a little bit of debate, a liberal attitude prevails in Pakistan. But to respond with how folks are responding in this thread, of just putting gasoline on the fire, that's not really how progress is made, it is how we further elevate and agitate an already volatile happening -- we should probably not do that.
So... by that argument isn't "gay culture" actually counter-cultural? As in it goes against the mainstream opinions held by a fairly conservative society?
Yes this is taught.

Salespeople are taught that if the sales prospect makes a pejorative or other remark that absolutely must be be overcome to close a sale, they should steeple their hands, engage the prospect, but never overtly disagree or argue.

In a sense I agree with you. What the person you are responding to is trying to say, I assume, is the new status quo is liberalism. As in lgbt, blm, van life, cannabis culture, casual dating, multiculturalism, secularism, etc.

I labelled the above idea space “liberalism” but I’m not convinced it’s the right term. I am just lacking a better one. In any case, if we assume the to be the status quo, which I think we mostly can, people trying to preserve these values and bolster them are conservative. They enjoy the status quo, wish to keep it and wish to reinforce it. They wish to prevent progress ( as in movement ) towards a different direction.

There is also another idea space, generally associated with christian identity, belief in God, the existence of two biological sexes with clear roles to fulfil, european heritage, abortion is murder, sex strictly within marriage, no homosexuality, gun rights, etc

This would be called conservatism. But, as in the “liberalism” mentioned above, it’s not really the best term. If we just take it as an idea space and assume liberalism to be the status quo, this would definitely be a counter culture.

It dislikes the current status quo, wishes to undermine it and shift it in a different direction.

And, in this sense, I agree with the person you responded too. “Conservative” is the new counter culture.

They really should have made namespaces just be {url} prefixes on element and attribute names.

</{http://my.example.com/ns/fruit}citrus>

Sure, it's textual bloat, but XML was already verbose and already compressed well with gzip, and it's a lot simpler to process.

The problem with the xmlns:alias="url" rewriting thing was that 1) most things didn't bother implementing it in full, and ended up e.g. relying on the name of the chosen alias 2) it had a special case of changing the current default namespace, which caused even more bad implementations.
Streaming services including Netflix regularly omit subtitles for non-english dialogue, I've found. For a significant number of movies this this can make them unwatchable.
i think society has a thermodynamic basis

given a group of people, it is much more efficient to e.g. task some people to farming, some to textile production, and some to animal rearing, than expecting each person to spend a portion of their day doing each task

and since most people prefer using fewer calories to accomplish the tasks necessary for living, some natural gravitations towards 'society' start springing up
There are literal state laws being passed increasingly criminalizing the existence of being trans, right now especially any kind of trans healthcare for kids (some legislatures are looking to extend it to adults). There have been mass killings specifically targeting LGBT+ individuals. Even merely informing someone of the pronouns you go by is almost guaranteed to bring flaming and harassment on most online platforms, often including right here on HN.

I want to be charitable but it's hard to interpret this attitude as anything other than willful ignorance of very obvious facts.
Reserving judgements is a matter of infinite hope.

No, nashashmi is implying hnews_account_1 is an adherent of the same Muslim splinter group (known as Ahmadis or pejoratively as Qadiyanis; see [1]) as Abdus Salam [2], the sole Nobel Laureate that Pakistan has ever has. Salam was a prominent 20th physicist who predicted the existence of the W and Z bosons and the electroweak force.

nashashmi is gaslighting here by demonstrating two logical fallacies: both an appeal to authority ("Other nations also did this awful thing, so it must be OK") and putting forth a straw man argument ("I don't have any defense for what Pakistan did, so I'll accuse someone of bias").

I see no bias by hnews_account_1 here. I agree with hnews_account_1 in that the neighboring country they refer to (presumably India) would indeed have happily claimed Abdus Salam as one of their own and trumpeted his achievements; after all, Salam was educated in pre-partition India. In contrast, most Pakistanis today do not even know who Salam is because the Pakistan educational hierarchy deliberately ignores his achievements.

If anything, the notable bias (here, as shown by nashashmi, and in large, by the Pakistani establishment) is against the religious community that Salam belonged to. Since 1974, the Pakistani government (which polices who belongs to which religion, and forces you to declare your religion in government interactions) has imposed discrimination against this religious community by declaring them non-Muslim and preventing them from practicing their religion openly. Terror attacks against this community are common [3].

You don't want the LLM to be completely unsupervised. The goal is assistance, not the equivalent of full self-driving. It takes a few seconds for a support tech to approve a response that would take 15 minutes to compose by a human. That's where the value is. You automate the rote repetitive work so the interesting intelligent work remains.
Catholic teaching is that men cannot become women and women cannot become men. Catholic teaching is that lying is sinful.

I grew up with a number of rosaries. I would have to bring them into my Catholic grade school and then we'd walk to the church on campus and spend the next hour reciting rote verses and trying to keep track of where I was on the rosary.
