Curiously the water that rains on the East Coast is a sort of rolling storm of rain/evaporation/wind/rain-but-further-east. A recycling of the same bolus of water over and over again. Been going on for millions of years.

Related skills that are useful outside the limited form the standardized test takes.

To take a practical example, if you wanted to get a group of kids to get best high marks in my high-school CS final exams, it'd been very effective to have them drill a a few standard sorting algorithms and a pile of formal definitions, so they are certain to be able to perfectly reproduce them from memory when prompted. But I'm fairly sure the few extra weeks of messing around with graph algorithms, despite that not being material relevant for the exams, probably were more useful for everyone in the class despite someone typoing a heapsort or not remembering how UTF-8 bit encoding works under pressure and loosing some points on that.

> The Republican Party leans much farther right than most traditional conservative parties in Western Europe and Canada, according to an analysis of their election manifestos. It is more extreme than Britain’s Independence Party and France’s National Rally (formerly the National Front), which some consider far-right populist parties.

Did you really link something which opens by calling the Republican party extremely far-right as evidence that they aren't that?
I think it's pretty clear that the critical reading skills required to handle the information density in a tiktok caption or the average message between 15 year olds is a little different than what we're aiming for in an educational setting.

Language informs thought, in a very concrete way. If I can't write it, or read it, I can't think it (to some degree). We abandon formal reading and writing educational standards at the risk of handicapping a generation of young people with poor cognitive scaffolding.

> Attempting genocide on humans will be absolutely out of the question.

Why? If a particular set of genocidal humans is willing to provide the AI more resources than any other set of humans, why would the AI choose differently? If humans are the driver of climate change, and that's somehow bad for the AI, why would the AI want those humans to continue existing?

Also, there's a matter of timescale. An AI need not think in years or decades. The eradication may be our great grandchildren's problem, as AI boils the frog and keeps us entertained all the while.
I didn't say anything about those roads. The parent poster gave that as an example. They didn't place a magic hex upon the thread preventing anyone who hasn't specifically driven on those roads from commenting.

I'd be surprised though if those roads didn't have roadworks, slower vehicles overtaking one another, accidents, bends, reduced speed sections etc. Certainly the roads I've driven in 10 or so other countries had these things in common.

Yeah this is really pushing a gray area. Looking at it one way Red Hat is not obligated to do business with anyone, and if they stop doing business with a customer that customer still has all the rights granted to them by licenses of software they have already received, so in that sense Red Hat hasn't restricted the customer's rights in that software.

However, on the other hand refusing to do business with someone in retaliation for exercising the rights granted by the licenses smells a lot like a restriction.

> they got rid of the special education (or whatever is the correct phrase) classrooms, laid off those teachers

How did they lay off special education teachers?

Special Education is funded via the Federal DoE because of a mix of requirements from the ADA and NCLB.

Unless you mean low severity student cases which might not be classified as SpED.

Edit: Now that I think about it, it might be dependent on your school district and state's fiscal condition too. There might have been a reclassification done by the school district as a personnel cutting measure

> So the really heavy users that cause problems for everyone else will run slowly during the day but still can be fast at night.

If you do backups at night and send 50TB/month but only at times when the network would otherwise be idle, why should your connection be slower than anyone else's during the day? Likewise, even if you did send a lot of data during peak hours, what would be the point of throttling you at night when the network has capacity to spare?

It only make sense to throttle people during peak hours who send a lot of traffic during peak hours. But that's what already happens if you don't do anything, because the links get saturated during peak hours and people have to share them so the people who are using the network when it's saturated have slower speeds.

What they could do is sell a more expensive plan where you get prioritization during congestion. Then if you don't use the network during peak hours or don't care about it being slow at those times you can save money, and if you want your connection to be fast all the time you can pay more.

AFAICT the reason they don't do this is it requires admitting that their network is heavily oversubscribed and they're too cheap to upgrade it, which is kind of a PR fail.

I think it's pretty damning, actually. Spending most of your time circumventing the test and rote repetition undoes any learning of the real subject.

I taught AP Microeconomics this past year. About a third of my time was spent teaching about different ways that the AP grading standards are picky and ways to exploit the test, because this is what is most important for the outcome they're worried about-- scoring a 5 on the exam. In turn, it didn't leave a lot of time for deeper discussions, simulations, etc, engaging with microeconomics.

Lab grown "meat" does not go through the life of an actual animal, and won't contain what a well raised animal will contain. Actual animals will consume food... for example, ruminant animals eat grass... this grass along with digestion process will bring nutrition that just feeding cells won't contain...

Fat soluble vitamins as an example example. In the case of just fat soluble vitamins, a lot of the supplements are either a baseline nutrient the body can convert to the actual nutrient or another form of the nutrient likewise. However these supplements are often not as bioavailable or have malabsorption and don't actually cover nutritional needs. A lot of the systemic hormonal issues in society can be traced to a reduction in the consumption of animal fats and fats in general, which are essential to body function.

That also doesn't cover the variety of fatty and amino acids in naturally grown muscle and fatty tissue in animals. You actually need a wide variety of these. And even then, the dietary guidelines are absolute minimums and not optimal values. They also don't contain guidance or understanding for all nutrients. It wasn't until just the past couple decades that a few essential nutrients were added for hospitalized feeding which accounted for serious brain/mental issues.

We (humans) have a very poor understanding of actual nutrient requirements, even for those in very small amounts that can have huge impacts on overall health.

edit: it can still be considered meat, or even animal meat... but if you look at the nutrition profile of farm raised vs wild caught salmon. Or grass fed grass finished beef vs grain fed. Or naturally fed chickens and their eggs vs commercial feed lots. There are vast differences in quality that can add up.

Great that your setup work, i personally hate terraform and try to avoid it.

k8s is also KISS but it brings even more 'out of the box' like logging and monitoring, would highly recommend you to take a look perhaps you like it.

Terraforms state management is bad and a lot of people don't get that you store secrets in them. Bootstrapping this securly already needs infrastructure like remote stores.

Jenkins is fine i would say but with argocd you actually gain real insight. Argocd is also IaC and you can manage argocd through argocd.

The adoption of argocd in the platforms i have build, is great. Developer teams love it, get used to it very fast and don't need cluster access/ (in your case vm access).

With k8s you also get zero downtime deployment, blue / green basically for free.

I am not really convinced having absolute pitch will make you a better improviser than someone who has good relative pitch.

In most jazz music you will have the lead sheet so you don't really need to know anyway. Besides that, you don't really need to calculate anything if you have relative pitch. If you practice enough it's instant. If I hear a note or chord followed by another note or chord I can tell you their relationship in real time. Anyone who has done enough ear training can. In fact, it's one of those things where you either know instantly or you haven't practiced enough. I was never really in an in between state.

I mean, I don't disagree this needs to be tested in court if it hasn't, but what alternative ways of restriction do you think this is referring to? Do you expect it to only apply to the distributor physically restraining the licensee when attempting to redistribute it? Even the examples given in the license such as imposing fees are applying a consequence.

> I'm constantly amazed at how hung up people are on apparent size of countries. If size is your thing, use some other projection!

Hmm. That’s not usually how the discourse goes.

It’s never “wow, Country X is actually smaller than Country Y. That’s terrible.”

It usually goes something like “wow, Country X is actually smaller than Country Y. This distorts our worldview and makes us think things we shouldn’t have thought. That’s terrible.”

FWIW, I was amazed in school when I saw a more accurate projection of the size of Europe. I mean, I _knew_ that it was tiny. But my thoughts about Europe definitely changed after seeing the other projection.

Similarly but not size-related, I was amazed to learn that some countries place Asia in the center (and the social/cultural implications of this).

I think you should be more amazed at people who _don’t_ care at _all _ about size. Sure, this group might include reasonable people like yourself who are knowledgeable about map distortions and trade offs. But a lot of the “I don’t care” group overlaps with the “Africa is a country” group. (Map size “memes” appear on Quora often and the degenerates come out of the woodworks to complain.)

It's good to use these socks with "barefoot" shoes that have plenty of room for toes and thin sole that helps them spread while walking.
I think a lot of this is based on circular reasoning. The people who interact with other humans will have relationships with those humans. And those relationships are the evidence that they're way ahead.

I do think there is higher maximum with other people. But relationships are hard. They take work and there's a decent chance you invest that work in the wrong people.

I can see a life with primarily AI social interaction being an okay life. Which is not the best it can be but also an improvement for some.
Essentially all a game engine is are these things:

* A tuned database for mostly-static, repurposable data

* I/O functions

* Compilation methods for assets at various key points(initial load, levels of detail, rendering algorithm)

* Constraint solvers tuned for various subsystems(physics, pathfinding, planning).

A lot of what drives up the database complexity for a game is the desire to have large quantities of homogenous things in some contexts(particles, lights, etc.) and fewer but carefully indexed things in others(mapping players to their connections in an online game). If you approach it relationally you kill your latency right away through all the indirection, and your scaling constraint is the worst case - if the scene is running maxed-out with data it should do so with minimal latency. So game engines tend to end up with relatively flat, easily iterated indexes, a bit of duplication, and homogenization through componentized architecture. And that can be pushed really far with static optimization to describe every entity in terms of carefully packed data structures, but you have to have a story for making the editing environment usable as well, which has led to runtime shenanigans involving "patching" existing structures with new fields, and misguided attempts to globally optimize compilation processes with every edit[0].

Godot's architecture is a good example of how you can relax the performance a little bit and get a lot of usability back: it has a scene hierarchy, and an address system which lets you describe relationships in hierarchical terms. The hierarchy flattens out to its components for iteration purposes when subsystems are running, but to actually describe what you're doing with the scene, having a tree is a godsend, and accommodates just about everything short of the outer-join type cases.

Some vegans will be okay with it because the marginal animal suffering needed to produce each additional pound of meat is roughly zero. Some vegans will still not be okay with it because (pick any):

- It's an unnatural way to produce meat with unknown health risks.

The free labor mods will feel a lot less upset about a platform that isn't profiting off their backs as well.

There's a clue later on in the article, when it describes reading for fun almost every day is also lower than previous years.

The goal of school is not for students to learn what The Pearl by Hemingway is about. The goal is for students to learn "to read"— ie, learn what to skim, what to pay attention to, what's being said between lines, how literary devices are used, how to piece different layers of ideas from a stream of words, etc. And importantly, to enjoy it at least to some degree, since it's a healthy habit

Teaching the test in this context would be similar to teaching students to write some "top 20" algorithms, and recite their time complexities, knowing at least some of them will be on the test. It's definitely easier than teaching students the parts that make up a programming language, what big-O notation actually means, and the sort of generalized knowledge that will not only allow them to write and analyze _any_ program, but to see the beauty in programming and maybe even inspire a few to program for fun.

This view of school as some sort of "training camp" for a test, is a terrible manifestation of focusing on the metric to the detriment of focusing on the goal.
