“current generation of youth and working young adults feels abandoned and unecessary,”

Graduating into the GR and being unable to find decent work for 10 years sure did this to me. I did find a job around year 4.5, and was treated like absolute garbage at best and outright targeted and bullied at worst. Then there’s that 4.5 year period after the GR where homes were empty and homeless everywhere.

Yeah, not hard for me to imagine why people aren’t having kids.

Short story, don’t bail out banks and push people onto the streets.

Edit-way I see it, I’d need a market valuation on my personally held assets of $3 million that I knew would grow at least 5% per annum before I’d think about a kid. Or a stable lifestyle with similarity to that.

> .NET Framework is analogous to the JVM.

Wouldn't CLR be closer to JVM? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/clr

And then... I don't know, .NET Framework to JDK, or something like that?

I like the whole thing (since .NET now runs on Linux well enough, C# feels okay as a language and has good tooling, like Visual Studio or JetBrains Rider) but there's definitely some naming and branding confusion sometimes going on, including in my own head.
How would you imagine that applying here? If fake accounts are at least as convincing as real ones, then it seems like trust networks would be quickly prone to corruption as the fake accounts gain enough of a foothold to start recommending each other.

My Pascal days are far in the past, but I recently used Lazarus to quickly prototype a simple GUI app (not many tools beat it yet for the task) and was a bit annoyed by the syntax.

Relying on expressions greatly reduces the need for transitory variables, and in case of Pascal, where you can't just declare them as you go, this would be especially important to clear the code from ops inessential to the task at hand.

`let foo = if (bar > 0) then bar else frobnicate() end` would be nice to have, as well as begin-end blocks with their own scope (can't fathom the reasons it's not allowed) and evaluated to the last statement. Rust and Nim get it mostly right.
Not OP, but I see the situation more as 100 years before Caesar. You had competing interests but inability (unwillingness?) to compromise. Various people tried increasingly heavy-handed solutions, including the populist Gracchi brothers, and then Sulla entering Rome with his legions (forbidden) three years of military dictatorship--after which he resigned and went home.

We seem to be at the potential start of that process. The morals/ethics of the coastal elites from the rural population have diverged to the point where, with Social Justice (differing from social justice) they may not be compatible, but both sides are trying to enforce their morality on the other. (Although I think the push for change is essentially from the coasts and the rural morality is on an offensive-defense.) So you get the rise of populist Trump and the far right to oppose the push from the far left. Trump isn't equivalent to anyone in Rome, but the situation has a similar flavor. (Also, the situation described by Plato in the Republic, where he says democracy results in chaos, causing people to want a dictator to restore order, although we have not got there yet.)

Japanese people seem more tolerant of reading information, I noticed this when watching streamers and was very surprised when I saw Japanese streamers actually reading the text popups and tooltips you tend to see in Japanese games. Western streamers however tend to just click those away and try to wing things.

Not sure why or if it is just the people I watched, but if your users are fine with reading text information then you would probably put more information on your site. If your users get frustrated when you provide them with information then you will probably use larger font size, more whitespace, put less buttons/things on the page at once etc.
> Good luck figuring out the root cause of sleep apnea.

Inadequate jaw development. We're so used to people having recessed jaws that we're just used to considering several mm of recession as a normal, non-recessed face, and we don't even think about the fact that most kids have jaws so tiny that their teeth don't fit properly and they need braces.

This causes both narrow, collapse-prone airways, and tiny nasal cavities that have high airflow resistance and deviated septums.

Both age and obesity largely just convert people from waking up out of airway collapse to overt apneas.
For a hacky solution, I've often just used grep, tr, awk, etc. If it's a well structured file and all the records are the same or similar enough, it's often possible to grep your way into getting the thing you want on each line, and then use awk or sed to parse out the data. Obviously lots of ways this can break down, buy 9GB is nothing if you can make it work with these tools. I have found jq much slower.
I don’t understand why MS doesn’t get some sort of internal revolt.

For the same reason that Milgram and Zimbardo didn't see a revolt among their test subjects. Whenever anyone objected to the unethical things they were told to do, all the researchers had to do was give the same order to the next subject. They didn't have to go very far down the line to find someone who would cheerfully do the dirty work. And those students weren't getting six-figure paychecks.

I will never understand how Nadella gets fellated so felicitiously around here. (Hello, -4 Flagged). He has turned a decent OS into an exploitative nonconsensual experience, in which the user is constantly reminded who really 'owns' the computer they paid for. Even more offensive from a business perspective, he refuses to give the rest of us the obvious option to pay to get rid of the garbage. It is still far too much trouble to run LTSC without pirating it.

the “official” food pyramid put out by the government still tells people to eat mostly refined grains and carbs.

I live on the west coast and the above items you mentioned are pure sensationalism and have absolutely nothing to do with me, my state, or my local community. They add absolutely no value, informational or otherwise, to my life. They do not help me make more informed choices for me and my family or better my life in any discernible way.

You want to care about all that fluff and noise? Good for you. Just don't go around pretending to be a better person for that, or denigrating others who don't fall for that crap. People like you are part of the problem, not the solution.
Two of the biggest reasons are: HSR would be faster than roads (HS = high speed) and it would also reduce CO2 emissions. Compared to planes, it may be faster depending on the flight pre-check time but it would still reduce CO2.

A cool video on the topic I found a while back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6ep308goxQ
The fact that this article didn't mention some of the design choices that Japanese bloggers make is kind of disappointing to say the least.

One of the things I personally find interesting is the use of callouts that are typically conversational in their tone[0] - these range from simple important notes, to more first-person comments where the author is being engaged with the reader.

Likewise, I have seen a lot of technical Japanese blogs be relatively simple in their design, but with a very high emphasis on content presentation. Furthermore, I have observed that many Japanese bloggers will often introduce their content with, "Hey it's me {name} and today I will teach you about {topic}" - which is not something we see in the West.

I think it ties in with the general approach of respectful culture of Japan.

So, in this context, I think the article is very thin and shows a small glimpse of how the Japanese design and structure their websites.

I really like https://readwise.io/ for this purpose regarding all the books I've read and the quotes I like to re-visit here and there. It uses a SRS technique.

While this type of article is almost cliche at this point regarding someone coming across the memory limitations and the power of anki for the first time, I really think the case for anki is exaggerated with "important ideas".

Anki is great for preparing to go on jeopardy or being in say med school. It is not really needed for lifelong learning.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zettelkasten might be a better approach but even then it is debatable how often you'll ever actually use it once the novelty wears off.

Anki is a tool to be used, not something that needs to be applied to everything.
Gold is often (though not all the time) anti-cyclical: as stock market goes down, gold goes up. It can be used as a hedge.
most of the program is standard assembly, then sometimes it's just manipulating some bits of data in bizarre ways to get to a value, either way it's mostly just consulting the x86 instruction documentation for functionality and encoding.

in terms of the instructions being wild, some of them are chosen, because the opcode matches the byte we need on a specific spot, but other times the instruction is just a randomly chosen one, however it was still usually important that the instruction could take a long operand instead of an immediate 8-bit value

> detecting stress in the human voice so call centre handlers could tell if they were speaking to a fraudster

That's the craziest pitch. Who is going to carry more stress in their voice: the dude who just scams for a living and is on his fifth phone call that hour or the guy with severe social anxiety who is only on this phone call because of the massive consequences accumulating from avoiding it?

I can almost believe it if it was something like detecting that a professional authorized agent wasn't being held at gunpoint. But having a consumer line say "You sound tense. I'm going to hang up and you can call back when you've calmed down." would... not be great.

Yeah, I do this when querying sql databases. I limit the data to some small/local range, iteratively work on the query, and when I'm happy with the local results, I remove the filter and get the big results.
Then you’re fucked if they check and the reference is bad and they care. Either you take your chances, leave it as a gap in your resume, or you make something up.

In the past, I’ve extended the time I was at either the company before/after and then leave the one in the middle off. Smaller gap is easier to explain and you just need a coworker at the one you stretched to cover for you - or have it be somebody who wasn’t there during the time you added. You can also just say you did the “freelance” thing and then talk about whatever you want.

I’ve also just been 100% honest and said, “I didn’t like this job and left on bad terms. I’d rather you not contact them.”

Just have to read the situation and make your best guess as to what is going to get you the job.

I bought like 4-5 dell laptops with ubuntu preinstalled by now. The experience so far was somewhere between great and ok.

The most important thing with these laptops is that I know it's gonna have the right hardware.

At some point I stopped reinstalling ubuntu as it just worked anyways.
Anki (or a Leitner box) is the recommended method from the book "Fluent Forever"

After learning one language in school and a few others ad hoc on my own I gave this method a try.

I quickly gave up, though, once I discovered Dr Krashen's work on comprehensible input, and how boring and time consuming creating and studying Anki is.

Dr Krashen's work says that we learn language when we understand it. I.e. when we receive input at our level. There are quite a number of Youtube channels that claim to teach through this method, but many of them still resort to drills, themed vocabulary, grammar etc that are all pointless in the CI method.

The best one I've seen so far is Dreaming Spanish.

What's so cool about the CI method is that the spaced repetition is built in, implicit - if you're getting input at your level you will be getting repetition.

Children's shows are a great way to get input. Many countries have TV apps on iPad and can be viewed free with a VPN.

As an experiment I had my daughter only consume German media (living in Sweden) för a few years and she can now speak better German than I can, and I have never corrected her. She has broader and more modern vocabulary, naturally.

> How does i2 compare with other languages used in verification?

I have to plead a measure of ignorance here as the context for my response, though we are working to understand the existing languages.

Perhaps what distinguishes i2 from the existing languages is we're treating this as an engineering rather than a science problem. We aren't trying to build up from the ideal logical system (which is maybe what Coq, Agda, Lean etc. do) but rather, viewing things pragmatically, trying to build a language that requires the least amount of investment for the average practicing mathematician to learn and begin using.

The sense I get (again appealing to ignorance) when I look at most of Coq-style options is that one has to learn type theory and/or constructivism before starting. In this way maybe we're closer to HOL and Isabelle.

Another angle is we're coming from a programming background, and view C as the model for what we're trying to achieve. C somehow captured all the essential capabilities of a Von Neumann machine at the right level of abstraction, and with a very "orthonormal" feature set, such that nearly every major system in the world is written in it or in a language based upon it. Our goal (which may greatly exceed our capacities) is to design something that does the same for maths.

> How are you planning to monetize i2forge?

We aren't sure about this at all. We're just convinced that we have unique insights into this problem and want to work on it full time, so we will be working towards monetising. One idea we've been playing around with is building tools for teachers, or for independent learners.

It still has Extended Window Manager Hints, presumably because it's a standard that applications can adhere to to get some semblance of coherency across applications and environments. It would be interesting if a modern standard could be created, but let's be real: unless a competing standard gets pushed by Red Hat it won't take off.
Right, As I often say, tragedy of commons will turn out to be our great filter. Not just at individual level but every level up including city, state & nations.

It’s a multiserver OS on top of a microkernel, what almost everyone in the academic community of the 90s assumed would be the future of single-computer systems (see e.g. the Tanenbaum—Torvalds debate[1]). The security framework at runtime is capabilities[2,3] (“object-capabilities”, not the weird draft POSIX thing) as opposed to ACLs; that is, you can access an object to the exact extent that you can name it, and those names are system-mediated and unforgeable (POSIX fds are capabilities; POSIX filenames are not; public Google Docs links kind of are in that it’s infeasible to guess them).

Basically, this is mainstream thinking as of the last point researchers seriously thought about single-machine OSes, sometime in the early 00s. And unlike most products of that thinking, it’s a fairly complete desktop system that can do a fair amount of desktop things. At the very least, it’s a proof by construction that this approach can actually serve as the foundation for a practical system.

(Hardware support sucks, of course, but with hardware manufacturers guarding their docs more closely than their genitals it’s a miracle you can actually get any PCs to work at all without Microsoft’s clout.)

In light of this week’s banking collapse precipitated by (among other things) lost confidence, I’ll ask:

To what extent does it matter that some of the bars in the vault are fake if everyone has confidence they’re real?

Also it seems like anyone who might inadvertently acquired some in lieu of the real thing & suspect the fraud down the line, they really have little incentive to cut the bar in half to find out. Best not to know.

No I didn't misunderstand. I'm well aware of what clothing is and how it is used.

You described an adversarial image as one that has pixels flipped. That has nothing to do with clothing either, and had nothing to do with real time facial recognition as this "adversarial" clothing is meant to disrupt. So I just took your meaningless pixel flipping suggestion back to subject at hand.

Also, from the examples I've seen, facial recognition has no problems recognizing multiple faces in the same image. So I just don't understand the point of clothing like this when all it is going to do is present the software with a few additional things to consider, but not actually stop it from consider the actual face of the wearer of the clothing.
Your statement is not at odds with my claim, not to mention eating more fruits and veggies is an improvement for 85%+ of Americans so yea that's actually solid advice. I don't know why you think it isn't

Most Americans are also sedentary and don't exercise at all so again, even just walking more is an improvement for most people.

All that being said, I also have not had a doctor who didn't first ask me what my diet and exercise are like before making suggestions
The institutions continued. The institutions continued under Augustus, too. But that's like saying that China and Venezuela are democracies because they have elections.

The Roman Republic was dead when Caesar won the civil war. The trappings remained, but the Republic was dead. (Seriously, could the people - or even the Senate - have voted Julius Caesar out? No, Caesar was there because of his armies, not because of the popular vote. So it wasn't a republic. In a republic, you can lose elections and be out of power.)
