This is American, so presumably school shootings.

We should probably solve the root cause, but the 2A death cult does a fabulous job keeping people convinced that MORE guns is the solution, completely ignoring damn near every statistic shows more guns lead to worse outcomes.
This is absolutely ridiculous to me. There's no way that parent could think that's acceptable. Do they not remember being in school?

If you want to see your kid, come have lunch with them one day or something like that
Not just in the US. I live in Netherland, and if I had to go to the doctor, I used to be able to get an appointment in a few days. Now it's two weeks.
>> The goal is to streamline the ordering process and prevent long lines in the drive-through lanes from turning customers away,

I've been at a few Wendy's with exceptionally slow service. Taking orders was not the bottleneck.

It's a good thing automation is going to lower food costs, since nobody will be able to afford food with no jobs.
Leaving your phone behind in daily life is less than trivial.

* My car insurance is currently only on my phone, and the printed cards in my glovebox are years out of date. I cannot drive.

* If your car has LTE or 5G you should not use it. Those will leak location data.

* It's almost moot if you do a transaction with a credit card. You need to use cash to not leak data. It would be a signal if you only take cash out of an ATM once in a blue moon. Many 'sensitive' transactions, such as medical care, can generate paper trails.

* In some cities it's moot due to the large number of cameras with facial recognition. In fact, to someone that has both phone data and city facial recognition data the fact that you don't have your phone could be used as a signal for closer investigation.

* If there is an emergency, such as you are arrested, or there is a medical emergency in which you need to go to the hospital, do you have a contact's phone number memorized?
30% seems a lot! I suppose that doesn't include the slaves.

Also, "Greek democracy" was diverse. Athenian democracy isn't at all the same as Spartan democracy.

I really have no idea why someone would want this unless they seek for unexpected issues with DNS on their network.
The post (from 2021) states it can translate DOOM (the game) from C to V and building it takes around 0.7 seconds.

As for V compiling itself, the times that I've read about anytime in the last couple of years, is around 0.3 to 0.4 or so.
The linked article contains the news that the feature became generally available. Your link isn't a press release, its an explanation of the tech behind this feature published a few months ago.
Effective communication is absolutely something I'm looking for in a candidate. The ability to communicate clearly and succinctly in writing is critical. I've worked with far too many people who'll respond to a question with paragraphs of narrative and reasoning and background information without actually giving a clear answer to the question.
> You can bet your life I was in my car and speeding down the street to get him out ASAP within 60 seconds of receiving the text.

There are multiple layers of “bad” with this. If there is a threat, you’re hindering emergency response. Regardless, you’re putting everyone at risk by “speeding down the street.”
Absolutely, Facebook and Twitter try to assign you into categories and bombard you with ads based on them.

What's interesting is that TikTok is getting the criticism these days, meaning that they're currently at the top of social media mind share.

The people didn’t ask for it, they had a prepackaged idea sold to them leveraging the crisis of the moment (and even then it was controversial at the time.)

You can buy a 14 cu ft chest freezer and just use it as an ice bath(buy an inkbird temp controller and unplug it every use). Otherwise you will want to buy a water chiller for whatever tub you're going to use.
The Ancient Greek word "daimon" doesn't mean "demon".

Daimon or Daemon (Ancient Greek: δαίμων, "god", "godlike", "power", "fate") originally referred to a lesser deity or guiding spirit such as the daimons of ancient Greek religion and mythology and of later Hellenistic religion and philosophy. The word is derived from Proto-Indo-European daimon "provider, divider (of fortunes or destinies)," from the root da- "to divide".

-- Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daimon)

The sorts of beings modern English refers to as "demons" are* daimons, but so are "guardian angels" and "saints".
There are also many students who have phones in high school and graduate valedictorian, so I’m not sure we can draw any conclusions.
What's the problem? you have the source, nothing is stopping anybody from using python2. In fact from that perspective you could say it is a good thing, once python3 was published, the language python2 became more and more stable. Until we are at this point. The language is super stable. It will never change again. exactly what you wanted.
Most of the DIY stuff I have seen involves putting the water directly in the chest freezer. Would need a much bigger chest freezer to fit in and I’m not crazy about the electrocution risk. I’m currently using the make a bunch of ice approach but it is cumbersome.
I'd practice math problems, in the areas of linear algebra, vector spaces, and so on. The experience will help me assimilate AI/ML better once I get Internet back.

Also, for variety, I may discipline my thought process further by learning mathematical proof techniques. The extra discipline will help me acquire knowledge of deeper subjects, with less effort.

Yes. It's a no-wage employee analyzing your voice, feeding it back to the mothership, working in concert with the other no-wage AIs, and doing it's best to manipulate you and everyone else.
Here’s why I downvoted:

It actually would have been better if neither your son nor you knew about nearby shooting.

It had nothing to do with the school your son was attending. That you responded in a panic is due to a common pattern of miscommunication during an emergency. The least effective response to an emergency is everyone panicking and operating independently of each other and ignorant of the ground truth.

How did the rumor of the school shooting begin? Probably from another student responding to some quick take on their socials? What if they didn’t have their phone? Would this even have caused a false panic in the first place?

Everyone take the time to look up the road death statistics to remind yourself what you really need to worry about. Always use your turn signal, even for your driveway. Slow down, but not too much… drive with the flow of traffic. Don’t change lanes in an intersection. Don’t swerve out of the way of a white-tailed dear, just try and punt the thing with the front of your car and count the hang time. Yield to the right at a 4-way intersection. Again, always use your turn signal, even for your driveway… why the drive way? Force the good habit!

I live in Texas. My wife is a public schoolteacher. We are coming for your son’s phone and we will convince enough people to agree with us.
Even as a paying Bitwig subscriber, I don't get it. My instruments are velocity and aftertouch sensitive. Having a touchscreen interface for these instruments is no better than typing on your keyboard to play notes. And then if you want to plug in hardware, you have to either settle for one thing and no charging or buy a dongle.

> being able to switch between my live instrument and an on screen virtual one is a big deal to layer up an idea. Can’t do that easily with a trackpad or mouse.

Keyboard shortcuts exist. Failing that, it's one click on my trackpad to switch channels.

There's also something to be said for multitasking desktops that give you the flexibility of both.

It's a neat option for people who already use Logic Pro, but touch-enabled DAWs have existed for over a decade (and they all kinda suck - ask me how I know). Besides the form-factor of the iPad being fairly convenient, there's no way I'd trade-in my laptop's IO and OS for a mobile one. The iPad doesn't offer enough flexibility to replace my DAW laptop.

We can't run an experiment to determine causation.

A lot of things happened since WWII. The whole way our government works shifted more toward centralization as a result of the war. Better information and communication technology could have allowed markets to operate more efficiently. Loads of European and Asian productivity was smashed in the war, distorting global trade toward America. A generation received a collective military experience. Women entered the workforce in large numbers. On and on and on...
I'm a parent of two school aged kids, one of whom attends school 10 minutes away. In a state that's had multiple school shootings as well.

I still accept that if something happens, it's going to play out before I rambo in and fix things.

I have firearms in the house and am trained in their use, but I'm not a professional. In a chaotic, lethal situation, even my presence as a transporter is only going to increase confusion and delay professionals doing their job.

What's going to save lives (including my kids') in a crisis is their knowing (1) how to handle themselves, (2) stay present and think critically, and (3) follow good directions when they receive them.
Because "abortion" is a hot political issue in the US, and a word that pushes lots of people's emotional buttons. And because anyone using less-button-pushing words to describe things is a for-sure loser in the Darwinian attention economy.

Federal Zoning Bill Would Preempt Local Parking Mandates
I feel like folks on HN (many of us developers ourselves) give this theory too much credance. Subscription pricing may be necessary to finance continuous development, but that doesn’t mean it will. Many developers (particularly larger corporations like Adobe) have taken advantage of this perception to see how much money they can squeeze out of people while making… fewer updates than their users are paying for (to put it nicely). I’m sure there are indie developers who get away with this too (although I feel less bad about that).

I’m not totally against this way of thinking, but I do think we need to start presenting it as the double-edged issue it currently is, not the fresh perspective it used to be.
This happens constantly, what is the Github team doing?
I’m absolutely not defending misrepresentation and dubious marketing. However, if a company is not known for having that information, it’s less likely that a judge will know they can share it, and therefore compel them to hand it over. I’d be very surprised if a Google representative could get away with pretending they hadn’t heard of that Google Maps feature when a law enforcement officer mentions they’ve asked for it hundreds of times.
I am from the so-called upper caste myself. I know how the upper castes keep whining about reservations for the lower castes that is available to them now - but they had absolutely no issues with getting defacto "reservations" for 1000s of years. And can you please stop blaming other belief systems for faults in your religion and culture?

You can, actually. AUv3 plug-ins have been a thing on iOS for years. I have a few I use through GarageBand.
This is 100% the right take. Thinking about it from the perspective of, "well I'm in tech and I know we're all bad at our jobs[1] so of course this will have these failure modes" for a thing that is an actual security feature is totally unacceptable. It cost them nothing to do nothing on this front. There could have been an incognito mode for location history and a "delete the last 4 hours" that, while manual, would have worked 100%.

They enabled location tracking, and got mad when their location was tracked. You can really only do so much from the product side here. Personal responsibility has to come into play at some point.
Kurt Vonnegut’s Advice to College Graduates Is Still Relevant
All I can think of is a quote from the McSweeney's article elsewhere on the front page right now.

"we are proud to bring the written word into the future with revolutionary technology that delivers the one thing readers are most passionate about: efficiency."

For me at least, postmodern literature isn't just about conveying a message or an idea. It's about conveying a vibe, a state of mind. And that kind of pseudo-telepathy might even require the meandering and the density and the apparent overcomplication to deliver you enough context to align your neurons into something approximating where the author's were at.
The author offers a solution that doesn't involve Google, but honestly, the solution is far more fundamental. Technology cannot protect you when your government is trying to push intrusive and oppressive laws.

So -- do follow the author's recommendations, but also vote out those politicians and parties who are trying to push these laws at the local, state, and national level. That should be a coda to every one of these articles.
The 'problem' here is you, serving the machine. I prefer the machine to serve me.
I understand your concern towards the difficult situation and your immediate action to look out for your family.

However, your anecdotal experience is still a "false positive" (fortunately), which doesn't allow us to conclude that, in the case of an actual emergency such as a school shooting, children with phones are statistically safer than children without phones.

But I'm genuinely interested in such a study, and I believe data is already available for us to compare the differences in these kinds of occurrences before the emergence of smartphones in schools and after. That would provide a north for making decisions that truly improve security for us and our loved ones.

They're half-formed people who do often need their behavior controlled in some way. Some students or student bodies may be mature enough to be responsible for themselves, but not all.
No one is saying it is easy for a poor person to become wealthy.. But it is possible. Not so with caste or race. A black person or a lower caste person who is treated unfairly can do nothing to prevent that prejudice or bigotry against them
Not sure about the generic 'manager', but leadership is not useless. In person allows a lot of bad managers/leaders to just skate by b/c everyone is in the same office, and things sort of get done by virtue of location. Remote highlights poor leadership.
We WERE at the Allen Outlets on Saturday. We left 5 minutes before the shooting began. If I had purchased one more item from a store we would have been right there.

Tell me again how I am being hysterical. This country is going down in flames and not everyone can see the fire.
BlackBird is internally developed by GitHub engineers. I know the engineers who did the research and then wrote up the system.
Strange. Phones were banned when I was in school. As in, obviously you'd have a phone, you just wouldn't have it out and be messing with it during classes. Almost all the students were reasonably following this.

We also used to have a rule where if your phone made noise during class you'd have to bring the whole class a cake the next day. That was pretty fun.
Hmm; I would think a better definition would include a description of the behavior as being greater than the sum of its parts. I can imagine abilities and behaviors being in the training data but not exhibited by a smaller LLM but being present in a bigger one. My favorite example is the ability to multiply large number consistently and accurately (e.g. 23540932 x 3274, which ChatGPT-4 just failed to do correctly for me when I asked it). A better LLM would learn how to carry the process out step-by-step.
I was listening to a podcast recently where a guy was fairly well-known in his niche. To paraphrase, "I didn't get where I am because I'm better than everyone else because I'm really not and never will be. But I'm a stubborn motherfucker who doesn't know when to quit. My success is mostly down to the attrition of everyone else who expected results right away and that's just not how it works."

I feel like this applies to so many things included career-related learning, businesses, and yes, learning a musical instrument.
Why? How does European culture and collective ethos benefits from something that is aimed at erasing, forgetting and twisting reality and turned into artificially created, (short-term) politically motivated, shallow-cheap-advertisement-like-substitute.

Somehow, unfortunately, it fits into the times into which the European elites got into and are unable to find a practical neither philosophical/ideological way out.
No, in this case the IDE won't help you. To make that happen you'd have to write this as:

(keyof typeof someObject | (string & Record<never, never>))[]

which will give you autocomplete but still allow arbitrary strings. TS will still complain as soon as you use it as an object indexer though, defeating the point.
> as these kids could already parse text

This is the key part.

These are all incredible goals to strive for once the kids are literate in the trivial basic sense of being capable, when handed an unfamiliar text, of working out what the words are.

If they are literate in that simple trivial way, instilling the love of reading and writing is a worthy goal and they are capable of becoming literate in the various wider political / social senses you describe. Even if they can't yet read in the sense of knowing what all the words and concepts mean, they can at least now encounter and name the things they don't know, and so have paths they can follow to find those things out.

If they are not in this way literate, no amount of instilling the love will help. The texts they are presented with might as well be in Linear A. There is no path to get the words from the page into the child or vice versa, and so the child cannot come to love the activities of reading and writing, wrestle with the ideas they encounter or any other fun enlightened things.

Teaching must begin with the basic building blocks before any other structure can be built above them. Any call to skip that first step before a child has mastered it is a call for lifelong ignorance.
Schools take away so much control from students that it’s natural they want to hold on to whatever they have left.
Oh, I thought RTG was all about removing floating islands and making the mountains more mountainous. I didn't realize it also made the huge cave systems you get with 1.18.
I don't think it's aimed at the same market. I mean: I can run large sample libraries on my MBP, but I don't see that happen any time soon on an iPad. There's not enough disk space, and I don't see the whole NI library eco-system adapt itself to iOS (let alone custom players like EastWest or Spitfire).

But it's a great option for people who've outgrown GarageBand.

Spatiotemporal Transformer for Stock Movement Prediction
I imagine a world where people have decades to figure out what part of the planet remains hospitable for human life. So places like Canada, Russia, the Himalayas, Rockies, Andes, Iceland, etc. The bigger problem will be fighting over those locations and the scarcer resources. But some groups of people in some condition will survive.

That might include local industry and northern shipping routes. Nuclear reactors or solar farms could have been setup decades before. Shelters don't have to be caves. They can be any sturdy structure. It's not like bad weather is going to blow or burn everything down across the entire planet.

I don't see how Earth becomes totally inhabitable for any realistic climate change scenario, including asteroid impact, nuclear winter or super volcanoes. There will always be locations that are survivable. We know this because animal and plant life has survived previous global extinctions on land, and humans have survived ice ages, which are arguably worse for global civilization.
Obviously, that's the whole purpose of it. Track what you like, and show you more of it.

And this is not a problem, as long as it's handled with care, and not leaked or abused. It doesn't even matter who might be accessing the data, be it China, USA, the Church, your eternal enemy, whatever... It's crucial data, which can be weaponized against people depending on the political situation. And people should be aware of this and should have a strong interest in implementing strong laws for protecting those data and being linked to their identity.
