Classroom size does not actually matter much. Teachers unions love smaller classrooms, though...

Your first item -- which is really many items -- does matter. Especially if we open about the fact that "socioeconomic background" is mainly a (poor) proxy for the students' IQ. We know this, because grades track the students' IQ better than their socioeconomic background or the IQ of their parents.

"Does the teacher understand the material?" is a low bar but one that many teachers don't clear. This is something that could actually realistically be fixed.
The problem is that one can change Apple ID password knowing only the pincode. No old password asked. This gives thief a full control of Apple ID

Settings -> Apple ID (top panel with name) -> Password&security -> Change password
> It says quite clearly, quote "If you look at most inter-process communication mechanisms, you can see that they are most often used by only two programs — usually a client and server." Two processes on a local machine, using shared memory or other IPC. IPC, not network calls.

Two processes! Not two threads!

How would you know? You still haven't read the article, so you're arguing with a straw-man!

> You haven't articulated a faster mechanism and in fact there isn't one.

"la la la my fingers are in my ears I can't hear you!" is the best you got? You seem to admit iouring exists, isn't POSIX, but what? You just don't believe it's faster now? Bull shit.

> You've already provided an example. The Linux kernel provides both select, a posix interface, and io_uring. Nothing about providing posix interfaces precludes providing specialized interfaces as well.

If you think a reimplementation of Linux is "easy" you need to have your head examined: Microsoft has near-infinite money and eventually gave up, deciding POSIX was too hard, and just implemented another hypervisor.
yea but apple has also chosen to use lightning with shit xfer speeds just to lock in its customers. m1 might have been nice but not every descision they made was good (look how they nerfed qualcomm iphones back in the day because the intel models couldnt compete with it)
Different countries in Europe can set different road rules, though they cannot discriminate by country. If other EU countries wished to play hardball, they could always do something like setting a 5 km/h speed limit for any (fossil) internal combustion car registered in the EU after 2035. Not many people in Germany would buy a car that is effectively restricted to Germany, and none would be sold anywhere else in the EU, so no mainstream manufacturer would bother with type approval.
Hopefully there will be a plug-in-your-own-API-key open source thing then. Even better.
We just implemented text-davinci-003 and seeing a better model at 1/10 the price is almost unbelievable.

This fact has made me cease to put new things on the internet entirely. I want no part of this, and while my "contribution" is infinitesimally small, it's more than I want to contribute.
Yeah, ultimately the goal of infosec is to make itself obsolete. On the one hand, it seems to be working because exploiting things has become more difficult/expensive. On the other hand, cyber attacks seem more rampant than ever, because exploiting things has also become more lucrative. So are the effects of the infosec industry real? Or is it just an arms race?

This is the FDP (neoliberals) trying to collect points for itself, as the only thing they did since coming into office is being an annoyance. Which is why they really suffered in regional voting contests lately and why they are a little in panic mode and trying it with their usual clientel policies (which means: let businesses do whatever they want). It really has nothing to do with facts or anything, for the FDP it's all about talking points.

The main problem is that the FDP are basically on the other side of the SPD and Greens, with which they share the office and why this will drag on until the next government will be voted upon (in 2025).

And the amount of money changes the fact that the core engines are written as a one-off effort how, exactly? Updates to the scripting engine to fix play-ability issues and content updates aren't really heavy software refactoring. Sure, there are usually some actual code bugfixes on the initial releases - and more often than not - related to someone implement some really clever trick that raises an exception on some cpu. Its not like they are incrementally rewriting and extending the internal engine for a decade, as it happens eg. with a browser.
The Austronesian people (kinda) had ocean sailing tech before the foundation of Rome (753 BC), as they settled fiji and Samoa at that time. If i rember correctly they mapped the sea using weaved twigs and stones in correlation to the stars.

Easter island is home of an ecological collapse as all trees and most fauna were extinguished resulting in (necessary) cannibalism
Everything suggests this is what happened. Polynesian people had for centuries boats that could make such voyages. It’s possible the original settlers got lucky/unlucky but the technology needed for it existed for them.

There’s also plenty of history showing smaller pacific islands that are colonized, so it looks like living of fish and the sea is possible and not a problem.

There’s plenty of information about this in Wikipedia. Alternatively, you can watch Moana.

Do you think a Chinese born scientist is a white nationalist?
Although I don't agree with the conspiracy, it's more that the politicians can achieve the outcome by misdirecting funds (free iPads!) to achieve the "supposed" end goal (producing sheeple) while looking like they are achieving a nobler goal (educating the lesser off). This can be achieved with very few people interested in the former with the majority of the politicians believing they are accomplishing the latter.
Macroscopic politics is a phenomenon in its own right. Something that should be studied like one would study chemistry or physics. No one person or party controls the course of events.

I don't believe there is a grand conspiracy with shadowy bond-villainesque bad guys. It's simply that there is positive pressure in one direction (to have an easier-to-manage populace) and negative pressure in the other (to have a virtuous populace (harder to manage)).

Do you mean they're trying to ban children from drag shows? Those are very different things. For comparison, consider that the US hasn't banned pornography but has banned children from pornography.
I assume it will, judging by a comment above where it praises C++ one second, then switches to praising Python when asked what the best programming language is. So to your point, it's echoing the fanboying.

Yeah after taking a closer look at everything, it seems that the actual headline is alarmist and heavily misleading.

The conclusion to take from this is that the pandemic had a mild negative impact on test results, but otherwise everything is fine, and actually marginally improved since these metrics were first established.

While I'm concerned about the impacts of climate change and diseases, I am interested in the idea here that we can get to an average life expectancy of 100.

According to the actuarial tables Social Security uses [0] to estimate lifespan, a female born today has an average life expectancy of 81. 76 if you happen to be male.

Let's just focus on the female population since that number is better. What is the maximum age a given population could reach, considering all environmental factors are perfect? Is it much greater than 100? If not, won't it be very difficult to remove all of the environmental factors from consequence?

We would have to greatly reduce risks like heart disease and cancer, which collectively claim 1.2m lives a year in the US [1], which will take massive dietary changes. We'd also have to eliminate most accidental deaths, which are currently over 200k / year and include fun things like car accidents and opiate overdoses.

Assuming we make all of the changes, our world will be pretty different. People will eat a lot healthier, drive practically nowhere, and abstain from drinking and drug use. A tall order on a short timespan, but worth it if we can get there.

On the other hand, most of us like to eat what we want, drive where we want, have some drinks here and there, and receive pain meds when our risky behavior leads to an injury.

> Kids on the bottom half of the bell curve, especially without parental support, are always going to struggle at school.

It's not just kids on the bottom half because those that need support are disruptive to the entire class. The way the system is setup, you not only need parental support but the parent drives the process and the administration is resistive because it imposes more work on already strained staff.

I volunteer in my child's class for 2-3 hours a week, as does my partner and a grand parent. There are a number of high needs kids in the class who need Individualized Education Plans (IEPs). These must be initiated by the parents and require outside services and assessments to be truly effective. The parents have largely been resistive to the teacher's appeals. Some point to their child's reading or math ability as proof that the child doesn't need support. Others just do not have the capacity or capability to take on the process.

The teacher is spending a disproportionate amount of time keeping children on task and as a result the entire class suffers. The teacher in this classroom has begged for support from the administration but they assert that it's the teacher's failing. The have taken her out of class to observe other classes at other schools but this was more punitive than beneficial. The only positive from that action was the substitute they got became an advocate for support. The administration has been slow walking the process to get someone to observe the classroom and at this point is just waiting out the school year.
Ask HN: What are some alternatives to ChatGPT for code?
...that actually work and don't refuse on grounds of over-commitment....

So far I have found:

phind.com writes code or points out suitable utilities.

koala.sh writes code that works.

you.com chat writes code but it needed tweeking.

jasper.ai which writes prose not code.

(my code task was: "how do I verify utf-8 lines in a file", or "write a python program to verify utf-8 lines in a file".) Only phind.com pointed out that isutf8, file, and iconv utilities could be used.

What other free websites are there (for coding), and what is your opinion of them?
Given that we have people who test various USB-C cables with devices (sometimes destructively)[1], this makes complete sense.

The USB-C cable/charger landscape is crazy and there are a lot of dodgy devices out there. The conservative approach is to only allow the minimum allowed power with unknown cables/chargers.

The EU mandate is to avoid having extraneous chargers that can't be used with multiple devices. I don't think there is a mandate for specific rates of charging.

Ask HN: Those with ADHD, how are you doing?
Hello HN,

I am about to ask for professional help and finally check whether I have ADHD or not. Most likely, I do even though over the years I have learned to deal with some aspects.

Here are some examples:

* I find it extremely hard to concentrate on reading, listening, watching, etc. Just reading a paper or a few pages of book might turn into a multi-hour adventure

* The funniest thing is that the same happens when during leisure time when I just watch a movie or listen to music. I constantly distract, skip tracks and multi-task which results in the whole day spent with no completed activities

* I have frequent mood swings. That sounds even more like being bypolar but it's not that severe

Regardless of the above, I managed to be quite successful from the academic perspective, got a master's in computer science and mathematics and now work as a software engineer at a large company.

That said, I still feel frustrated sometimes by the lack of focus and concentration.

What I have been recently practising is using Pomodoro (pomofocus.io) and different background noises (like those on mynoise.net) so that there is no music, no irrelevant browser tabs, etc.

As for medications, I have serious doubts regarding stimulants. Based on what I have read, there is no concensus on the long term effect of this class of drugs so that makes me doubt.

What is your story? How do you deal with ADHD?

Even if Apple requires MFi certification on their USB C cables, China will just crack the cryptography and clone them.

They cracked the Lightning chip in like a week.

Then they will share the private key amongst all Chinese cable companies.

It's hard to keep a private key safe inside a small chip when there are billions of dollars in cable sales on the line.
Would things have been different in the success of OpenAI if from the start the company was closed-source and for-profit ? If the answer is no, then does it really matter ? The article makes it seem like if OpenAI owes its success to the initial promise.
Bucketing children by age and not developmental milestones has always confused me.

No matter how you slice it, some kids are more advanced in verticals than others (emotional, math, reading, problem solving, etc.) and there aren’t tracks in the U.S. to accommodate that so we end up forcing all these square pegs into round holes - everyone loses.

I'm confused by the overly concise title and humbly suggest:

"Improving Student's Learning with Learning Techniques That Improve Learning by virtue of being Effective".

It needs to be clear that not all techniques are the same. Only some are effective. Moreover, it's not clear that what it means for a learning technique to be effective is that it improves learning. And so—aha!—that is why the study is only about the effective ones.
I think Apple considered it, but their iPhone business is too big to risk it - at most I see them extending CarPlay more and more and maybe doing something with AI driving as a licensable option.

Many cars are basically iPhone accessories, no need to risk that market by making your own car.
The data regarding what branch a commit was made is available. It’s all available if you dig deep enough.

What you’re talking about sounds like the work of a git visualization tool made for fixing problems. I do love a repo viz where I can see the tree of branches for helping me understand where something went wrong. The surface level stuff people use day to day is as simple as it needs to be.
Satellite SOS is based on the same bands used by 5g. Also it is now part of 5G NR Release 17. Qualcomm modems since Sanapdragon X60 had support for these bands. Even before Qualcomm officially announced Snapdragon satellite with X70 modem, Huawei was offering satellite communication with Snapdragon X65 in China, which is the same modem found in iPhone 14 series.
This looks like a lot of fun, I've played some Artemis but not explored the other offerings in the space.

One thing that's always struck me as weirdly difficult with the spaceship-bridge genre, but wholeheartedly embraced by generic flight-sims, is custom control surfaces! Everyone wants pedals and knobs and sliders and a big red button in the middle of the console. Kerbal players are notorious for hooking up the most bizarre junk they can find as in-game controls, and the game is richer for it. I saw mention of DMX lighting, but nothing about mapping random HID controls...

Another thing we did playing Artemis, was put the "engineering" station in another room, with walkie-talkies so you had to actually "call down to engineering" to ask them to do things. That should be Teamspeak or something now, I suppose, but having the various parts of the ship in physically separate places (perhaps across the internet?) really adds something, IMHO.

Ask HN: Is there a curated list of *notable HN submissions/comments?
*I find notable hard to define (in this context). Maybe it's something, that changed the future(?) and/or had an impact on the world. It should be an interesting piece of history, at least. Not necessarily famous.

I'm looking for threads like these:

- Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong looking for a co-founder on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3754664 (I'm still looking for the related Reddit thread)

- The "lol, just use ftp" DropBox launch thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8863

Btw. it seems like the HN Algolia search is pretty mediocre or I am using it wrong. Example: When I search for stripe + all time + sorted by date [1], I only get like the last 2 years of stripe threads. Not the threads from the 2010s. Is there a better way to query HN?

> Having developers remember to do -DCMAKE_XXX half a dozen times for every build wasn’t realistic so we scripted it because CMake didn’t support the idea that a toolchain file wasn’t passed on the command line (that I’m aware of).

You're supposed to use `-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE` to specify how to use a toolchain like this.

> I also disliked that it generated recursive Makefiles.

It doesn't make them in the "recursive make considered harmful" way. It is a static 3-depth graph (UI -> target graph -> target rules). Or you could use the Ninja generator.
