> culture of inequity in country music

I think the article needs to describe the population of overall songs to support this claim. What is the percentage of men, women, mixed gender, transgender, sexual orientation, and race? Are there many top 40 hits for country music songs performed by women? Or by LGBTQIA’s?

This seems like a simple comparison before claiming inquity. The closest is when they talk about a peak of female sung songs of 33% and a valley of 11%. But what’s the overall and what is the breakdown of songs that are likely to be played?

There aren’t many black country music singers so I think a station playing few songs is actually quite equitable. Same for sexual orientation. I don’t think that it’s very smart to spread overall total population characteristics over a specific non-random selection.

Just because there are 0.0% songs played by lgbtqia country artists doesn’t mean it’s a lack of equity. Popularity is not equitable by definition since it tends to focus attention on a few acts (Matthew principle in effect [0]) so it seems odd to talk about such a thing without more context and detail.

Just because the population is 50% female doesn’t mean that 50% of country songs should be sung by women or that 50% of country music radio stations will be women. There is bound to be variation just because country music isn’t the same as the overall population.

I wouldn’t say that the Tony awards is inequitable because the gender and sexual orientation of nominees and viewers doesn’t match the national demographics.

I assume you mean colocation in the traditional sense, where you rent space along with power/networking, and provide your own hardware. (As opposed to the more turnkey dedicated servers where the host provides the hardware too).

You might consider browsing the WebHostingTalk forums [0], which - at least back in the day - were the best marketplace for finding good opportunities. I haven't been in the market for a long time, but it seems like the forums remain pretty active. You'll want to be careful to watch out for resellers that aren't adding any value, but you can find hosts from every part of the supply chain there, including some diamonds in the rough.

If you actually meant dedicated servers, then I'd still suggest WHT, but find the right subforum.

You do have a King though. What would happen if the PM went to see him to form a government and they disagreed? The King is the one with armed guards, military rank and a fortress.
I think it’s great too. It does an especially good job balancing its cleverness in a way that works well in each context it was designed for.

Somewhat aside: as a long time Mac user, it bums me out how the current macOS/iOS design language distracts from the logo as an icon. The Windows variation is much better, and would’ve fit right in on a Mac just a few years ago.

It will not. It's literally just a PS Remote Client, it's been around since PS3 times and you can try it now with your phone - it just streams the screen of your PS5 to your device of choosing, nothing more complex than this. It's just a dedicated device that can only do this and nothing else. I guess the integrated Dual Sense is nice, but ultimately not that different to a Dual Sense + phone holder setup, probably somewhat more comfortable to hold.
Happy to give a response if you'd like to argue your point, but otherwise this just seems like a snarky comment for sake of being snarky on the internet.

> At enthucutlet we aspire to tell fun, unusual, heart-warming, and surprising stories in the vast realm of food in India. Organized into seasons like your favourite Netflix show, each edition of enthucutlet delves into an idea that is thought provoking and is at the centre of all the features in it. These are contributed by a diverse set of writers ranging from economists, to neuroscientists, to food experts and everyone in between.

I was tempted to say that's so niche, but India's so massive maybe it's not, either way - I love it, will bookmark/read more.

Umm, it's pretty trivial for amateurs to track space objects either in Earth orbit. For SDI to work, both the number and size of the systems would be quite large. And they would need to be replaced when they either fail or run out of station-keeping propellent. So no, there's no evidence for a "hidden" SDI that actually works.

From your statement, it seems reasonable to assume that the people and their experience are what Snowflake is actually acquiring. (Another comment here suspects a soft landing for investors as both companies are Sequoia backed.)
In a lot of ways, being 'a nation of laws' means the officeholders can evade any kind of personal responsibility by asserting that they're just one cog in the legal gear wheel. Which one? Well that can take years of litigation to establish.

Of course, the idea is that people are corruptible whereas laws are clear and neutral, but reality falls far short of this ideal. Any system can be gamed and ultimately captured; the more widely accountability is distributed, the less the probability of its timely application.

The best format for archiving is many formats.

Make an LTO tape... But also make a Bluray... And also store it on some hard drives... And also upload it to a web archive...

The same for the actual file format... Upload PDF's... But also upload word documents.. And also ASCII...

And same for the location... Try to get diversity of continents... Diversity of geopolitics (ie. some in USA, some in Russia). Diversity of custodians (friends, businesses, charities).
Vulkan also isn't the primary API on the Switch, it has a proprietary API called NVN which is apparently what most games actually use. It having OpenGL and Vulkan is a more of a bonus feature, probably taking advantage of Nvidia's already existing driver implementation, rather than Nintendo going all-in on the open standards.
I should give that a shot. Are there any specific defaults you are referring to? Lack of vi bindings? That's what always stopped me before.

THAAD interceptors look to be ~$100M each from a google search. I remember seeing a leaked document that suggested up to 3 interceptors would be fired at each target to guarantee a kill, but I can't find the document now, sorry.
A Trident-D5 missile is $30M, and can carry up to 14 (small) warheads (which would likely be a mix of larger warheads and penetration aids). Trident is still in production, but note that it's an economical US missile.
So given this very approximate math, ~$2M on offense could soak up ~$300M on defense. The cost comparison would look worse for the defense if you don't assume the (high) cost of a US offensive missile for parity.
I don't understand why they expected to see 11% back-to-back female songs instead of 11% * 11% = 1.2%

> If you listened to this station non-stop from midnight to 11:59pm today, you’d likely only hear 3 back-to-back songs by women, compared to 245 from men.

> Songs by women are already severely underplayed, making up only 11% of total plays in 2022. Even at this low rate of play, we’d expect to see 30-40 back-to-back songs by women for this same day, like in these 10 “coin flip” simulations. In reality, we see 3.

It would be nicer if they showed their work. Simulating this in Javascript with 300 random songs with 11% female artists results in:

let songs = new Array(300).fill(0).map(x => Math.random() > .11 ? 'm' : 'f');
let bb = {f: 0, m: 0};
for (let i = 1; i < songs.length; ++i) {
if (songs[i-1] === songs[i]) ++bb[songs[i]]
};
bb.pf = 100 * bb.f/(songs.length - 1);
bb.pm = 100 * bb.m/(songs.length - 1);
console.log(bb);

The output is 3 female back-to-back songs and 240 male. (Your random numbers might vary.)

{f: 3, m: 240, pf: 1.0033444816053512, pm: 80.2675585284281}

> We looked at 19 dates throughout 2022 for this same radio station and found that out of 6,474 songs, only 64 (0.99%) were back-to-back songs by women plays. For back-to-back songs by men, it was 4,231 (65.53%). Back-to-back mixed-gender ensembles and collaborations account for 36 (0.56%) songs.

I have friends that run a free-range chicken farm in northern NSW. The chickens are out in open fields but there is a caravan like trailer they lay eggs in. They move the trailer around to avoid the chickens wearing out the ground. Maremma dogs are used to keep predators away.

You can't buy these eggs in a supermarket as they exclusively go to restaurants.

That's a fair point. Nothing like 10,000 hours is required for most people to attract and keep someone who fits their criteria.

But the point was that if you're blaming other people or something like hypergamy instead of improving yourself then you're just looking for excuses.
And so, if this is the first time you have heard about Snowflake acquiring Neeva you now know the level of asymmetry of information that exists in the 'public' market.

Wall Street already knew and priced it in before you did.

Thinking about this more: the reason you might have this impression is that police funding cuts are actually discussed a lot more than school cuts. The Seattle city council actually voted 7-2 during peak BLM to cut the police budget in half before their voters forced them to walk it back in outrage. Imagine a big city politician seriously entertaining cutting the school budget in half. It’d never happen.

I almost included in another comment that I was impressed they made this less subtle (so logo nerds aren’t the only ones who can see it) without ruining its subtlety. If you look at the space between the tail and beak you’ll probably see the rest.
I think that these are valid points.

I also think that, in context, this is not exactly surprising. Country has been political for a while, a fair amount of people have been blackballed from country like the Chicks (nee. the Dixie chicks), and performers who don’t align with conservative values in country get a lot of heat (e.g. Kacey Musgraves, Beyonce performing at the CMAs): https://www.vox.com/platform/amp/culture/2016/11/4/13521928/...

Due to the way that they do the IP assignment, they keep changing, though.

> Geo IP databases are very inaccurate for companies like ours. Some of our IPs are registered with RIPE 3, and thus default to Amsterdam. The geo IP providers might choose to use our corporate address for those instead, but then they’ll show in either Chicago or Delaware.

> Meanwhile, we can put IPs anywhere in the world with a one line config change. We won’t, but the IAD IPs could just as easily be routing to Sydney tomorrow. We could even route it everywhere!

This is entirely wrong.

To intercept a missile you need to intercept it - that's it. You don't need to be traveling the same speed, or have the same mass, you just need to be physically where it is at the time it's there.

ICBMs aren't armored - and they can't be. They're spacecraft of a sort, and doing almost any amount of intentional damage will prevent them from functioning. Nuclear warheads are hard to detonate - the behavior if disrupted is the weapon likely goes inert because you've ruined the implosion mirror or timing circuitry.

The problem is that interception is hard because your engagement times are very short, and you're off-trajectory. Initial deviations in your aiming create larger and larger errors at the target, and any sort of maneuverability on the warhead's part means you're unlikely to be able to correct in time - hence the focus on trying to hit missiles in the boost phase, when they're by necessity more predictable.

-.KENTUCKYK LOOKING GLASS. Boon* - - to - Curmudgeons in General A new joy in i^as sprung up in the Editorials. The diamond cutter has been test of the ,M quality of the water, and certified it as excellent. Now, if a great deal more ef¬ fectual means to prevent the destruc¬ tion of the inhabitants of the city by Asiatic Cholera or any other epidemic disease, were introduced into our midst in a manner sim¬ ilar to the "Giles" Improvement over our common bay window, he would he a real benefactor to his species. Some¬ thing should be done. One or two posi¬ tive remedies might prove the means of saving many valuable lives.
The arrangement of the Inhabitants Is such in our business portion, that if an epidemic breaks out, it spreads and spreads with fearful rapidity. Now while it is true that no man can tell just what to do to prevent an epidemic, yet it is, as men have discovered, far easier to destroy the condi¬ tions necessary for its existance than to remove them after it has taken rool. Among the eminent men who have studied and written on the sub¬ ject of this Cholera, it is said that we must rely mainly on the "Doctor" of the kitchen rather than on the "Doctor" of physic, to save us from the dread pestilence. If so, then let our friends hereabouts take heed of what that worthy has to say on the subject of" plumbing". The doctor of the kitchen says, "beware of all canned goods excepting fruit". W hat the "Doctor" does not say, but what all know, is, that it is often a good idea to be just as cautious about the fruit as about any other canned goods. I have seen fruit canned, iu town, packed in cans so impure that the workmen were careful to wash their hands after han¬ dling the cans, as if they had been soiled with disease germs. That was some years ago. To-day there is much more danger in consuming canned meats than in any other article of food. Even the canned fruits may be looked upon as dangerous, if we are to credit the learned doctor. What does he tell us? Simply this: that most all of our goods arc preserved with, and colored by "
