So how many of those 100 trillion synapses are actually in the part of the brain that does the thinking? Because the brain has different regions (subsystems) responsible for different things.
And that isn’t being said here. Frustration with a person’s family is one comment, discussions of the cultural problems on the south in another (denial/defiance), but regardless of someone’s tone thousands of miles away the problem is still there and the source of it is not the tone or words used by individuals from far away.

I switched from Mac to Surface in 2017, and was moderately happy. I bought an M1 air when they came out, it’s essentially a different kind of product.

When we try to give our kids complete autonomy for the day (and we occasionally do), one spends the whole 16 hours or so on a video game and the other will be glued to her phone the whole time.

Sure, we could make them go outside or put away the screens but that's not really autonomy, is it?

Your move, progressive parenting advocates.
Yes, you should probably separate your identities if you can.

Keep a Journal. Think about intent/outcome logging per day, irrespective of what they ask you to do (which of course will become part of your intent) write down what YOU want to try and to that day, and do a reflection.

Make sure you respect NDA and IPR. Don't blather if there are things you know or find out which are privileged.

Don't compromise your own integrity, in a belief you "have to do it" for something which causes you qualms.

Don't be afraid to ask questions but try to avoid asking the same question twice to the same person. Caucusing is fine, but expect some "are you asking me to do your work/homework/research for you" responses sometimes.
If 2+2=4 it doesn't matter if you "witnessed" it being 3. Anyone who has actually interacted with poverty in the past 30 years would know that benefits are miserly, sparse, and limited.

Notable virtually no cash money which is basically required to live and work requirements for other benefits.

Welfare is what poor people rely on in addition to working not what they do instead of working.

This is why virtually everyone on food stamps is either temporarily between jobs, working, retired, disabled.

You can't just keep having kids and actually live indoors because the government will give you more food stamps but not more money.

What part of tanif being a few hundred a month and having a lifetime maximum of 5 years isn't getting through?

More kids = more poverty. The only angle to work is child support not welfare which is obviously the disconnect here.

For a long time the authors at Baen books released ebooks without DRM.

One of the authors said that his problem was not in creating books, it was in getting people to read them because there are so many books being published.

I'll do you one better, used Mac for two years, Windows for most of the rest, and a hell of a lot of Linux all throughout. Found the opposite regarding cognitive load with MacOS - it feels like a ten year old operating system full of weird quirks and I got annoyed with its almost-linux-but-not command line. Win11 with WSL2 is my preferred driver, both for hacking and development (primarily Rust/Go not Node so maybe that makes a difference).

Its all subjective though.
FWIW that is what Starlink has been saying themselves. Their operations have always been linked to cheaper launches. My opinion is that it is easy to get side tracked when your leader gets stuck in political activism.

> It speaks volumes that we mediate these interactions through police rather than through mutual dialogue.

I wouldn't call the police on kids climbing trees.

But I'd attend a 3-hour timeshare pitch meeting at a Red Lobster before I'd have a 5 minute "mutual dialogue" with a parent about their kids' truly problematic behavior. (And I'm allergic to shellfish.)

Parents who can have mutual dialogues typically don't have kids who require them. And for the kids who desperately need them, community members seem to play a game of hot potato until somebody is finally forced to step in and confront the parents (typically after property damage).
Regarding your second sentence in particular, the Haber Bosch process already make ammonia out of hydrogen. That it usually take hydrogen produced out of methane is something that can be changed.
Neural networks explicitly don't work the same way as human learning; they don't have online learning, humans definitely don't learn through backprop, humans have memory and compute in different parts of the brain, etc.

Also, training a neural network can make it worse; it's actually the combination system of the model and its engineers that makes it improve. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catastrophic_interference)
7.6 felt like Snow Leopard. Great stable OS after the flakiness of low 7s.

Surface Laptop 5 costs $899. Still no sign of "extra up-front cost" of Apple. For me, Surface Laptop isn't even in the running because of poor screen resolution.

The old Surface Book has 3000x2000 resolution which is 200%, but the Surface Laptops have 2256x1504 resolution, which is only 150%. As Steve Jobs said when he introduced iPhone 4, the only resolution that looks good after 100% is 200%. I have tested screens with 150% and 300% resolutions, and they all have display artifacts (such as horizontal 1-pixel horizontal lines appearing to have different widths).
It happened in Copenhagen, too:

E-scooters were restricted to a few areas. When you park them, a GPS has to agree that the e-scooter is within bounds. This can take forever.

I came late to appointments and eventually gave up using them. The apps often have problems processing credit cards. It feels like society is rejecting them, and so they become less valuable. Renting a car is the same price, but with fewer problems.
No one really knows the listenership stats for radio, the method used to come up with numbers is appalling.

Social media is just doing the same thing as traditional media about less important topics.

Any singular bad instance gets amplified and there's probably multiple of these happening each day, so it looks like it "always happens" despite most people being actually much more reasonable than that. It only needs to happen two or three times in your area for it to become "just what happens these days".

I have direct experience with non-coastal people doing things bad for their health because somebody told them it was bad for their health, not because they think the person who told them was wrong, but because they want to show that they can exercise their right to be stupid anyway. Everything from eating things they didn't really like just because they were unhealthy to modifying their cars to be dirtier. This was a frequent enough occurrence to be noticeable.

The Japanese and Germans are resisting the ICE phase out in their own ways. The Germans aren't ready to walk away from their vaunted automotive history so they forced efuels to be acceptable for 2035. But all those efuel vehicles will run hydrocarbon petrol just fine. Toyota and Honda are both dragging their feet on ICE retirement. Toyota has said they have no plans to give up ICE production, even after the recent CEO change. Honda is quieter but they both sell into markets that aren't going to stop wanting ICEs: they can't afford BEVs.
Thanks to the user-hostile and inherently insecure nature of Windows, it takes me nearly 16 hours to comprehensively lock down, disinfect, and largely neuter any install of Windows.

I mean, the actual install takes about a half hour, and slightly more if you have to trigger the OOBE to bypass the Microsoft Account requirement (you can create a bootable USB installer that does this automatically). So the other 15½ hours is spent ripping spyware out of the system and forcibly disabling “features” that only enrage people who are used to “traditional” style user interfaces (like a start menu that actually looks like a start menu… thank you, StartIsBack!!). Registry work alone takes nearly two hours, since most changes are security-protected; I cannot just create a reg file and apply it.

I am able to get an install into a place where anyone can use it without getting massively confused by the newer UI garbage, so I am quite proud of those skills, but the time needed to do so is a damning indication of how bad things have gotten.

If you can walk to the park on sidewalks, then it's a walkable neighborhood.

When she's ten, I'm hoping she'll be responsible enough to take her younger sister with her. What is unsafe about it? Dumb phones are cheap. If you invest in knowing your neighbors, they'll know people on each block.

The 1980s and particularly 90s stranger danger panic was driven by national for-profit news organizations generally, and the programming demands of cable news specifically. There is only so much real national news to go around, certainly not enough to fill 24/7 television programming, so these orgs turned to blowing up local crime stories to the national news market. On a national level there's always another missing child story so a national news org can keep these stories coming on a regular basis, creating a false impression of how common these crimes are.

Wow, count on another $4,200 in net income next year. Seriously, how expensive is an AM radio?
The report is not from the State Department but from an Australian Research Institute. I would not try to downplay how impressive China's economy and technical capabilities are, but I think that the methodology used here is not a meaningful reflection of how things stand. The report does a great job of collecting and presenting data, but their rankings focus on various flavors of citation count. These metrics are easy to track and compare but ultimately not the most important aspect of technological capability. The report is solid but I think it is more a conversation starter than a definitive analysis.

For example, Aircraft Engines are not made by universities. The fact that Chinese Universities are more intensely focused on researching and publishing results on them does not capture the full know-how of the American Aerospace industry.
Similarly a study of nanoscale manufacturing that puts India ahead of Taiwan is clearly missing something important since TSMC is clearly the world leader in the most important application of nanoscale manufacturing.

Research papers represent the priorities of funding agencies and central planners. In some cases the intensity of research in universities settings is indicative a government agencies trying close a gap in their industrial base. To be clear, this is not to dismiss China's technical prowess. In many areas I would suspect that their know how is being underestimated by this methodology, but I think the headline as written is misleading, and the report is really not conclusive.
Have you used Linux recently?

Windows 11 and Windows 10 with the last updates as well are just awful in terms of UI; the UX works more or less alright, but many of the default applications, and specially the settings, control panel, etc. are just an inconsistent mess, awful flat UI without any kind of colors, etc.

Mac is much nicer, nicer fonts, colors, overall look although personally I can't stand the UX too much (specially in terms of window management) apps are usually great tho.

I'd very much rather use something like Kubuntu or Pop_OS, Cinnamon works fine as well, honestly nowadays they just work and are usually better off than Windows by default.

I think it's useful stress testing for when your product goes viral.

For example, if the whole world wanted to create an account, and an account consisted of a UUID and a date, it'd take 5.4 days using this metric as a minimum viable benchmark.

It's all about context, perception. 15,000 seems like a large number, and 1 second seems like a small amount of time. On the other hand, 5.4 days seems like quite a large number. Likewise at small scales, 15,000/second operated at a fidelity only able to capture 0.0005% of a typical processor's clock.

Like a picture in a frame.

This is not to say that the ability to casually write 15,000 things a second to a database is not impressive. Nor that a beowulf cluster of it wouldn't be.

AIQuery is a powerful TypeScript library that simplifies the process of interacting with a MongoDB database by allowing users to make advanced queries using natural language text. It utilizes the OpenAI GPT-3 model by default to generate executable TypeScript code based on the given query, roles, schemas, and database type, allowing for flexible and dynamic database interactions.

Seems like a very British solution to me (being a nation that cares little for liberty); if the police have had enough being constantly called to deal with another 10 being stolen today I'm not surprised they'd only permit company vehicles.

After all, there's no economic value to be gained in stealing them and the insurance premiums for destruction (including simply throwing them into the Thames) is distributed across the customer base. If there are thieves stealing them for parts they'll be easier to detect (since it's not plausibly deniable to claim a company scooter is yours).

Combine that with the fact that it'd be trivial to disable all transport in the case of civil unrest, and you seem to have a winning policy for Londoners.
Aren't we talking about pedestrian deaths though?

"Over the past ten years, pedestrian deaths in the first half of the year skyrocketed from 2,141 in 2013 to 3,434 in 2022 – a 60% increase..."

That said, pedestrian deaths for children under 13 looks to have decreased in the last 10-20+ years. Maybe fewer children walking is a factor there.

> What extra up front cost? The Macbook Air costs $799 at BestBuy.

Only if you go with the absolute lowest specs. Which means you cannot upgrade them and will have to chuck that MacBook Air much sooner than any Windows laptop because it’s unable to keep up with you.

Maxing out the specs on any Apple hardware is practically required for maximizing usable lifespan, and unfortunately, represents a massive barrier to entry for a majority of people. Since these products are not upgradable after the fact (as most Windows systems are), you have to choose between a much shorter expected lifespan or a much more expensive product.

For example, I can easily put together a Windows machine for $3,000 that can do much the same things that a $2,000 Mac Mini can. But get the entry-level Mac Mini, and any Windows machine which matches that price is relevant for more than twice the time span thanks to its ability to be upgraded.
Yes, I don't think I've ever seen somebody wearing a helmet while riding a lime scooter. I don't think there are any laws to require helmets for scooters in my city, and helmets aren't provided with the rentals, so anybody wearing a helmet while riding one is certainly a rare exception. And I've already seen a man crack his skull this way riding a lime scooter. Sad, but not surprising. It probably happens a lot. It almost makes me think we need "attractive nuisance" laws to protect young dumb adults.
