> You didn’t answer my question why can’t adults pick and choose what material is appropriate for their children only?

Because it is impossible on a practical level to do so with a public school system and a constant low-intensity campaign to infiltrate schools with pornographic garbage.

How many hundreds of hours of spare time per year would a parent need to expend to discover the 3 books they don't personally want their child to be exposed to?

For that matter, would their wishes even be respected? Or would we have school employees letting them read it on the sly, as some bizarrely-conceived revolution against the oppressors? There's more than enough evidence of schools taking the opportunity to hide disturbing developments about children from their own parents.
You have to be careful with Nature. The root journal is top quality, but there's some sort of ancillary pipeline within the "Nature" umbrella where articles look very superficially like a Nature article, but are NOT published in the root journal and are NOT held to the same standard at all. It can be a bit confusing.

I'm not sure if the cited article falls into that category or not, because I can't quite recall how it works, but I just know I have been burned by that one in the past when I submitted something to be reviewed and it turned out one really surprising result was garbage tier.
It really depends on the railway line. A lot of Europe is running enough passenger trains that there literally isn't enough space to add more cargo trains into the mix.

In my country the minimum train-train spacing is five minutes, because any less and a train won't be able to stop if the preceding one has an accident. A substantial part of the network is already being limited by this, and we are seeing more and more quad-track sections.

Your "carrier train" already exists, to an extent. It is called "intermodal shipping containers".
There are articles about Toyota, Ford, and GM having data breaches if you search for them. The difference with this one is the kind of data exposed. It's not just user location data, it appears to be some malfeasance by the company itself, an attempt to cover up issues.

There is likely something real here.
Compatibility with the shift register in the VIC-20 CIA was a part of it, but Commodore had a “fix” that was removed from the board during a revision that would have resulted in fast serial transfers from the 1541 on a C-64.

> 1-based indexing causes you to have to throw in a bunch of +/-1 compensation factors to prevent you from double-counting or scaling past an edge.

Way back then, I started with Algol 68, moved on to Turbo Pascal, and finally Fortran (I was young and needed the money). My vectors and arrays started at 1, as was the default, and I do not even know what you allude to. The first element has the index 1. Since there is no zeroth element - neither in language nor in thinking -, starting at 0 is what causes problems. You always have to use a corrective term in your head - the element five elements after the third one has index 7.

Yes, whatever.
Tesla could rebrand as a boring car manufacturer and do away with their insanely high market cap (relative to other auto makers) and stop claiming to be a tech company with disruptive technology.

They could do that and they’d be treated like any other car company. But Tesla won’t because “disruption” and “innovation” is why people like Tesla.

I think it’s stilly to consider Tesla a victim of news media. Tesla welcomes this. Free advertising. Free PR.
> Maybe it is relevant

I think it absolutely is relevant, given that the conversation itself was about changing narratives, as a meta point.

> you almost make it sound like Web3 has a second chance or something.

This thread itself, is one of the rare ones where bringing up web3 actually is relevant, yes. It is reasonable for him to make that argument, because the topic is literally about how to authenticate things when you have an opposing central authority.

> If you demand engagement on a topic nobody cares about

His point wasn't about engagement. Instead his point was about how unpopular opinions are being proved correct, and that people were way to quick to dismiss ideas.

His point was that people should be able to look ahead, into the future, instead of immediately dismissing things out of hand, just because the thing isn't directly effecting the world right now.

IE, if you were downvoting/disagreeing with opinions about how AI is going to make it hard to authenticate information online, then you were wrong and were way to quick to dismiss an opinion out of hand.
Teslas are now cheaper than the average care in the US after rebates. Average car price is around $48k. The Model 3 starts around $37k and the Model Y starts around $43 with current federal rebates (state and local rebates may reduce price further).

Most people charge there car at home and rarely ever visit chargers.
I too, don't know that I buy this. Aholes are always going to find a way to be an ahole, but there are only so many ways you can do this with a vehicle, and for the most part Tesla drivers still use the old-fashioned ways (using a turn lane to pass, cutting people off, etcetera).

> Autopilot, meanwhile, threatens a “demasculinization” of male drivers as they’re converted into passengers.

"Real men" have always been chauffeured.
To be fair, a third of that is probably just the expense of rent. $66k remaining is $180 a day for the nursing care on top, which seems pretty reasonable aside from the messed up dynamics of medical care in general.

At what point was your "little effort" claim true? Compiling random OSS projects has never been particularly easy. You've always needed to hunt down all the compile-time dependencies and get those compiled/installed.

Tessearct is generally the overall best for typed documents, though it struggles with handwriting. TrOCR is better than Tesseract, especially with handwriting, but requires a GPU to have any speed. Tesseract from my tests was roughly 200X faster than TrOCR (not an exaggeration)
It's not so clear cut. In the South Baltic, Northern Germany is sinking while in the Gulf of Bothnia up north, ground is rising a lot because it's balancing or something.

I wish they'd actually link to the study. Most of NYC's skyscapers are in Manhattan, and are built in the areas where the Manhattan schist[1] is closest to the surface. The Bronx's geology is similar.

Brooklyn and Queens don't benefit from the same geology, and have always had flooding problems. Those flooding problems are going to get worse with sea rise, but neither borough has the same density of skyrises that Manhattan does. It's not clear without the study whether they accounted for that.

Minsky slowed down AI by using his powerful rizz to hypnotize otherwise reasonable researchers and academics into believing his self serving assertion that multilayer perceptron systems are bad because single layer perceptron systems are bad.
You’re thinking about this wrong.

Replace the phrase “corporate servers”, with what you really mean which is “centralized servers”.

Truly decentralized services rarely gain mass traction.

Email’s not even decentralized, it’s actually federated.

If you host your own communication server, that’s still centralized.

It sounds like you want P2P, and that’s really tough.
This doesn't answer your question directly but it might help anyway. Usenet is an excellent (paid) alternative to climbing the private tracker ladder. All traffic is secure and effectively anonymous. Download is lightning fast. If you're on the right backbone there is an ocean of content. It's only missing very old, obscure stuff. It's MUCH easier than climbing that ladder and worrying about ratios.
True, but sometimes it's just easiest to edm it, depending on the geometry
One of looking at this is that European banners, coats of arms, etc, are traditionally defined in writing (often using a domain-specific language called a blazon), and then compiled to a visual form by a banner maker. This compilation is intended to be reversible -- one goal is to be able to look up the written form in a book of heraldry based on the visual appearance -- but, just like compiling code, is not a one-to-one process; the same blazon can result in various visual representations, and which one is selected is often an aesthetic consideration.

Not speaking Italian, and not having done the historical digging, I don't know the original written definition of the Vatican flag, but it looks like it's something like "banner divided in yellow (towards the flagpole) and white, with the white part centered with the crossed keys surmounted by the tiara," where the "crossed keys" and "tiara" are imports of external symbology. In this case, the question concerns the tiara [1] -- which, like most physical tiaras, has a hole running through it that appears neither red nor white when viewed as it is represented on the flag.

While it is certainly reasonable for the Vatican to have preferences on the detailed representation of this flag, both as-drawn versions are faithful representations of the blazon, both allow looking up the blazon from the visual representation, and both are, frankly, fine.

> usually a single track across a vast distance, etc.

This is fairly short-sighted, isn't it? Make no mistake, highways are also long-term and involve lots of property seizure. We could build out railways with more than a single track, but rail is private and roads are public.

I think we do actually. In terms of economic value / accidental death this is probably the most rigorous engineering discipline.

The big difference with software engineering that other engineering disciplines fail at is asking the question "Is it worth the risk?" and then answering it well.

For instance, historically and presently, bridge builders accept a much higher risk of killing someone than software engineers.

Given the risk that most bridge engineers take, most software engineers would instead just do something else.
I wish I could put a bet on cloudflare probably already thinking about acquiring fly.io as they've been working on stuff like this and bumping against all the challenging edges.
I am tired of Tesla lying about its vehicles being capable of "driving themselves" and selling a "Full Self-Driving" product that is anything but - preying on the public's ignorance and substantially harming public safety.

I am dog tired of that.

No, other automakers are definitely not saints... but Tesla has embraced uniquely extreme wrongdoings throughout its history and this Handelsblatt story (which is still coming out in stages) fits Tesla like a glove.

I still feel like e-bike makers are missing a mark, a lighter bike with like 30-40km range for a battery could be cheaper and will fulfill most people's needs.
The limiting factor for electric vehicle production is batteries. Trailers spend a lot more time sitting around than tractor units. It's more economically efficient to use the batteries as much as possible rather than have them sitting around.

Trailers come in many form factors: container, flat bet, end-dump. Heck, sometimes you just want to tow another tractor. Those different form factors have different constraints in terms of battery size and shape.

You'd still need big batteries in some tractor units so that they could drop off trailers. All tractor units would need small batteries so they could go short distances without a trailer.
Most US working charging infrastructure is Tesla plugs. Tesla also started pushing companies like Ford to adopt their proprietary charger.

Upmodded pre-emptively on the assumption you'll do a followup explaining your justification. But I disagree.

I think the best DLC was Minerva's Den, a Bioshock DLC about a man becoming obsessed with his work to the point he destroys his family, which is relevant to anyone that's career-minded and particularly to founders.
rektide is right to point at the need to over-build the pack: you need the car to be rigid without the batteries, essentially, and the battery to be sturdy on its own. You could argue that the car only goes through significant stress when the two are together, but every mechanical engineer is not liking that math.

Another argument is what Sandy Monroe [0] think is the biggest one: moving connectors. It’s not just high-energy cables, but possibly coolant, etc. Those will be the first thing to fail.

Sandy also mentions the risk of using someone else’s over-worn battery, but that’s more his atrabilar personality than something that could be engineered away: have the platform the battery regularly, even have the car do diagnostic and remove the worst ones from circulation.

> bond assets are considered statically valued and not at market value when they have elected to hold it to maturity

Under Basel III, no. They’re marked to market. Under American rules, yes, because the banking rules bone-headedly referenced GAAP. This is the HTM problem and it’s real, though far from fundamental with respect to fractional reserve banking. (It’s also solved in no way by a reserve requirement.)

> When you count debt as reserve

This is why we deprecated the reserve requirement. The Fed funds market is lent and borrowed reserves. A reserve requirement just counts liquid reserves; it doesn’t care if they’re owned or borrowed. A capital requirement takes into account if it’s borrowed. You’re arguing against the solution to the problem you pose.

> same asset is claimed in its entirety among X number of loan originators in clearing bankruptcy/receivership

Again, solved by capital requirements. Assets pledged as collateral net to zero. (A balance sheet should do this, but financial institution balance sheets are unintuitive.)

> If you can find vintage books on the subject they are much better and absolute gold mines (circa 1950s-1967) in comparison

Go to the true vintage: Bagehot and others who wrote from the height of the gold standard in the 19th century. Most English literature from post-War on the topic is fringe by that point.

> We show maps of observed deformation from InSAR and GPS data that demonstrate an average 1–2 mm/year subsidence rate across New York City (Figure 5), which is consistent with values calculated for post-glacial subsidence across much of the U.S. northeast coast

I’ll have to read it in depth later but seems the researchers modeled the “subsidence” and compared it with GPS data spanning at least a decade.

> Secularism in modern India is a synonym for Hinduphobia ...

1. Secularism is a constitutional principle enshrined in fundamental rights in the Indian constitution. The fundamental *Right to Equality* in the Indian constitution already implies this. Although, the word *secular* was added explicitly to the constitution through the 42nd Amendment (in 1976), it has been implictly read in through various Supreme Court rulings. The dishonest equivalence of secularism with Hinduphobia is by those who want to attack the Right to Equality.

2. The comment mentions polygamy permitted under Muslim personal law. Marriages in India are governed by personal laws. There was a time when inter-religion/inter-caste marriages were illegal. Polygamy among Hindus was legal until 1956 when the Hindu Marriage Act (a personal law) was amended to outlaw polygamy. There is a landmark case currently underway on the equality of marriage sought by LGBTQ+ individuals to bring same-sex marriage the same legal protections as marriage between a man and a woman. This is an evolving legal area. The courts are quite conscious of the fact that not everyone, including Hindus want personal laws to be overturned (as it also impacts succession, property rights etc.,). There will be broad based support for overturning some anachronistic personal laws due to intersectionality (eg: Hindu gay men wanting to marry or Muslim women wanting triple-Talaq (divorce) law overtuned).

> It is only in "secular" India that organized religious conversions were allowed (emphasis added) ...

3. It is right there in the constitution. Article 25 (1) states that: *Subject to public order, morality and health and to the other provisions of this Part, all persons are equally entitled to freedom of conscience and the right freely to profess, practise and propagate religion*

4. The word *propagate religion* includes religious conversions. So, proselytizing is covered by the constituion. The law also says *forcible conversions* are illegal since it infringes on right to freely practice one's religion. Of course, the fascists will equate all proselytizing with forcible conversions.

Ahh, I see. I originally thought you were trying to smuggle in a fully general argument against willful inconsistency, which so far as I've seen, produces very bad results.

But (and correct me if I'm wrong here), your problem seems to be more of a category disagreement. That is to say, your complaint is that the meta-thought (the thought about the thought), doesn't belong in a separate category from the original thought. And therefore the process of observing thoughts also generates them, and is fundamentally different than other types of observation. Do I understand you so far?

Is there still room, in the way you're conceiving things for, say, an amped up version of mind/body dualism to separate a sub-set of thoughts into a category of "thoughts that come from the body" as opposed to the meta-thoughts as "thoughts that come directly from the mind"? I think the ancient stoics called these "impressions" (or, more accurately, they called them the greek word for impressions, but I cannot recall it at the moment) to get around the category problems you're talking about.
