I'm guessing there was a computer system that was logging causes of death by ICD and they ended up with a number of cases that had no code for it and this and a few others were submitted.
How do you even address something like that? Even if you paid each father $10k to stick around to age 18, that doesn’t guarantee that they wouldn’t become domestic abusers, suicide victims, or would even be good role models. It’s possible that father presence for kids is only so valuable because the only fathers that stick around are the ones that care.
Yes, I think that is my main concern in that often research papers do not disclose the weaknesses of their approaches and the opposing tradeoffs. There is no silver bullet.

The stress workload that I use is to chain corda-large [1], 5x loop [2], corda-large at a cache size of 512 entries (6M requests). This shifts from a strongly LRU-biased pattern to an MRU one, and then back again. My solution to this was to use hill climbing by sampling the hit rate to adaptively size of the admission window (aka your FIFO) to reconfigure the cache region sizes. You already have similar code in your CACHEUS implementation which built on that idea to apply it to a multi-agent policy.

Caffeine adjusts the frequency comparison for admission slightly to allow ~1% of losing warm candidates to enter the main region. This is to protect against hash flooding attack (HashDoS) [3]. That isn't intended to improve or correct the policy's decision making so should be unrelated to your observations, but an important change for real-world usage.

I believe LIRS2 [4] adaptively sizes their LIR region, but I do not recall the details as a complex algorithm. It did very well across different workloads when I tried it out and the authors were able to make a few performance fixes based on my feedback. Unfortunately I find LIRS algorithms to be too difficult to maintain for an industry setting because while excellent, the implementation logic is not intuitive which makes it frustrating to debug.

Like other things in tech, you can do this, but you really shouldn't. There are a lot of assumptions baked into those addresses per the RFCs, which are kind of like our industry's electrical code. Using a broadcast address is "not up to code".
Quite the opposite. It's very important to (1) know what the accepted (in fact, majority) views were not that long ago, and (2) to witness an example of how a man could so clearly change his worldviews despite being educated and mentored in the Catholic ultraconservatism that gave him his former views.

The reality of the world dictates that men require a smidgen of "toxic masculinity" to power through. Try telling a sewer cleaner to feel more, or share his feelings. He instead should embolden himself and power through it.

"In this groundbreaking book, Alfie Kohn shows that while manipulating people with incentives seems to work in the short run, it is a strategy that ultimately fails and even does lasting harm. Our workplaces and classrooms will continue to decline, he argues, until we begin to question our reliance on a theory of motivation derived from laboratory animals."

That was 1993. The people at Microsoft, as well as the author of this substack, would do well to have a think about Kohn's arguments.

They tried to use other organizations logos in their "loved by section" to make their product seem more trustworthy than it was. By using smart language they could have gotten away with it in case of a lawsuit, and most companies don't even bother to go after stuff like this. By the time a lawsuit could have been relevant, their landing page would have changed. It's because I respect their competence that I attribute it as intentional.

Don't get me wrong, I don't give a rats ass about what someone does with some large company/organization logos on their website, it's not that I'm trying to stop some misuse of their trademarks. But if you chat with us about your page, and try to be honest about that the section there is toeing the line of truth, don't call it marketing, just tell us you lied on your webpage. It's not the end of the world to tell a lie on the internet.
>> Girls on the other hand, all is well.

> This is also far from the case.

Yes, all is not well with girls, but I don't think they have to deal with an analog of the condemnation of "toxic masculinity" and messages that "their nature is flawed." I believe their problems are frequently blamed on external actors (e.g. beauty magazines, social media, etc).

Casti connubii, Pope Pius XI, 12/31/1930: released to coincide with the Anglican Lambeth Conference. Paragraphs 45-48, 51, 63-67, 71, 75, 106.

HV is remarkably short, and I recommend reading it in full if you have a few minutes. But you want citations: Paragraphs 3, 7, 10, 13, 14, 16, and finally, the predictions and anticipation are laid bare in paragraph 17.

"Another effect that gives cause for alarm is that a man who grows accustomed to the use of contraceptive methods may forget the reverence due to a woman, and, disregarding her physical and emotional equilibrium, reduce her to being a mere instrument for the satisfaction of his own desires, no longer considering her as his partner whom he should surround with care and affection."
A good start is to not beg the question.

I think it actually is far deeper than that. I believe our entire school system is setup to offer success to women, and failure to boys.

Take as one point the fact that boys brains develop slower and later into life than women. Should then boys be competing against women of the same age given what we know?

Take as another point the decline in physical activity in schools and the reduction is recess time. Does this negatively impact boys more than girls? I think so, but it hurts then both to be sure.
What are those passages saying, scientifically?
Diablo II had two ways of playing online - Open BNet and Closed BNet. Open BNet allowed you to use your offline characters, but Closed BNet did not.

The theory of the system was sound. The practical reason why Diablo II was a mess was because the game was buggy and trusted the client too much, making "Closed BNet" turn out to be not so closed after all. There is no technical reason why Diablo IV couldn't have been designed with the same two-tier system, they _chose_ not to do so.

There's a lot of great stuff in this interview, but what really floored me was the question, after Miles had talked so much and so eloquently about race in America and his experiences, "Have you always been so sensitive about being a N**?" Like nothing Miles said entered the reporter's skull.

It's also interesting to see how much he talks about the importance of representation in the media. Given that's something we've only started to see change much in the last 10 years or so, I wonder how his remarks were received then. Would it have seemed totally out of left field, like 'what is this guy even talking about'?
A useful write-up - because - it rather thoroughly documents an SMD assembly with minimal tools. Trying this, trying that. A naive approach. Lots of things that didn't work, lots of extra comments, lots of photos. Beautiful. We know what it's supposed to look like done neat and tidy, with stencil and at least a minimal reflow oven - that would be less useful. Perhaps not the first to do that, but an interesting project (the write up) with current packages pushed to its publication.

It's often tempting to mess with such tiny boards without the "proper" tools. This serves as proper warning.

I've always thought Carls Barks and Don Rosa stories became much more important in Europe than in the US because they struck the same chords as do Tintin.
I remember reading those comics as a kid. They always felt special in a way that e.g. Spirou didn't. I think the article is right that the relatively higher amount of realism was one thing that set these comics apart. Also their "international" approach, with Tintin traveling around the world to investigate. Some of them were written like action/crime thrillers aimed at adults.

The TV series was also pretty good. I still remember the dramatic intro with Tintin jumping from a train on a bridge into a river:

https://youtube.com/watch?v=APrxbp3zpBw

The more recent Tintin movie by Spielberg was also great. It had blockbuster vibes entirely comparable to Spielberg classics like Indiana Jones, but he kept it close enough to the source comic. Unfortunately Peter Jackson never made the second part.

Not here in the US. The carriers wanted to discontinue 3G for years. They really only started it in earnest in 2018. It took them about 3 years longer from the first dates given to finally kill 3G. It sound to me as if 3G phones didn't bite the dust as fast as carriers assumed or customers refused to upgrade at the rate they expected.
What I don't understand is how, all these years later, they can spam the same message from the same accounts thousands of times before they are caught. They are using such exotic techniques like putting spaces between the letters in the url. It amazes me how little effort has been put into stopping these things over the decades now. One can only assume it's not considered a problem to them.

That paper says you need to collect soil samples quickly so you can classify the type of ignitable liquid that contaminated the soil.

Even if the material world didn't require this, it's required by a substantial portion of women, romantically speaking. Many women express their concern that "he never shares his emotions", but when he finally does express his emotions and what truly bothers him she finds herself unusually dry and loses respect for him. Some men never have to learn this the hard way, and they're fortunate. It's common enough that it's not hard to find such stories online.

> only so valuable because the only fathers that stick around are the ones that care.

Last time I looked at data about this, it appeared that even a poor father who was present was better than no having a father in the home. If I remember right it was measuring the likeliness of a teenager to end up in prison. If there was a segment of fathers that were worse than not having a father, I don't think it shows up in any study I've seen.

Gilder's Wealth and Poverty book cites a lot of studies and examples showing how society has changed in ways making it harder for dads to stick around with everything from how drug policies are enforced to the way that welfare resources are allocated.
Another hypothesis is what we're doing is so hard and so valuable that it really requires that much effort.

I suggest reserving your judgement until you've seen what we've built, which will be soon.

Above-ground tanks might be better for detecting leaks, but I'd imagine they're much more vulnerable to catastrophic accidents (e.g. a truck slamming into one and causing a giant fire).

Lets not use this case as a scapegoat and pretend that slowdowns don't exist in iOS.

Pretty much from the first iPhone model it's well known that newer iOS releases will slow down your phone and/or make your battery drain faster. I even remember when they actually broke wifi on a lot of phones with an update and pretended that the hardware was defective all the time (which it wasn't). Hell I'm looking right now my old iPhone 8 which got a new genuine battery, and it's a lagging, hot mess so I only use it when I don't want to burn the battery of my new phone.

My good colleague resisted updating her iPhone 11 to any newer version of iOS from the one she got, but couple of months ago she couldn't install her banking app anymore so she broke down and updated the OS. Instant laggines, and battery lost close to 40%. Just like that. She got mad, and when the madness subsided, she bought a new iPhone. Mission accomplished for Apple.

All of this could be much avoided if they would allow you to install previous versions of iOS, but they don't for obvious reasons. And before anyone mentions security, that is a load of BS because even previous iOS versions get patched up. So planned or premature obsolesence, the user just gets frustrated with an old phone which hardware-wise might be perfectly fine, but software-wise an unusable mess and buys a new phone. I hope the forced user battery replacement works, and I'm sure they could look into these forced software updates which are also largerly contributing to larger problem at hand.
You've highlighted a very important part of the paper. A lot of the external consistency guarantees provided by Zanzibar are facilitated by Spanner and its TrueTime mechanism. Warrant doesn't currently support/use Spanner. However, for the databases we do support (MySQL and Postgres - which are both ACID compliant), we've implemented the zookie protocol using the incrementing transaction ids they provide. This approach works for single writer deployments of these databases, so know that write throughput and overall availability will be lower. We started with this approach because most teams still use MySQL/Postgres. Warrant is built to support running on different types of databases, so we will be working on support for Spanner and other multi-writer distributed databases like Cockroach and Yugabyte in the future. I hope that helps.
