> the goal, however, is not to "not keep the 'identitarian' mindset going"

I wonder about that. Unfortunately, neither of us has evidence and is just spouting opinions. I'm not being snarky; the space of "maybe this person has a different goal, and maybe they don't even realize it" is a quagmire. I agree with the rest of your statement, and I think that's the only part necessary to drive progress. Who cares what others hold in their psyches as long as actual problems are solved? (I care, but I don't believe in thoughtcrime, so I won't force the issue.)
>Affirmative Action is just a bad solution from all angles, created by anthropomorphizing groups of people as though they were individuals.

You dismissed the importance of history. That's what I objected to.

The chip provider is a subsiduary of Bitmain and it seems that MilkV have quite close ties with them, time will tell if this provides for long term support or not.

I'm not sure the statement about "Support things long term neither software nor hardware wise" (maybe I'm taking this statement out of context, but it seemed directly linked to the firm being based in China...) is entirely fair - some examples being, Tencent, Huawei, Ali(cloud), ZTE, TP-Link, Lenovo, Xiaomi, Tuya, etc and then more on the maker side of things companies like Creality and of course Espressif.

There are, but Harvard is not the only one competing for them. Once you consider all top schools, the population of ADOSes who can make it based on academics is really tiny: given the fundamental constant of sociology being 1 sigma difference between white and black Americans, given how normal distribution works, the difference in figures at the top of distribution is enormous.

For example, if Harvard only wants to admit people 2 sigma above median, by 68-95-99.7 rule it will be 2.5% of white applicants, but 0.15% of black applicants. That’s 16-to-1 even before you adjust for the fact that non-Hispanic whites are 60% and blacks are 13% of population, after which you get something like 75 qualified whites for each whites. Add to that Hispanics whites, who, while overall having lower academic achievement, are not nearly as low as blacks, and Asians, who have even higher achievement than whites, you’ll easily get something like 100 to 150 qualified non blacks for every black applicant.

Even more concretely: there are something like 2 million freshmen every year. 2 sigma cutoff means only 2.5% of them qualify, which is only 50,000 people. 1 in 100 means only 500 blacks qualify at above 2 population sigma. Then you have all Ivies and other top schools compete for these. So yes, you can find 300 blacks at 2 sigma cutoff, but Harvard won’t get all of those. Thus, Africans.
> Why aren't you saying if that's right or wrong? Like, seriously, does that seem to you like a reasonable use of government power?

I, personally, do not believe that it is a fair use of government power, and I do believe it was a wrong decision.

> Do you think if that case was escalated up to the Supreme Court they would agree? You're still making the same argument: "some speech is restricted." Well, yeah, but why and how do we determine those categories? Some speech is not allowed to be restricted. The Supreme Court has ruled in favor of student expression before.

The reason I keep bringing it up is that I keep hearing this argument framed as "book bans." They're banning books! To which I point out, yes, we ban books, don't pretend like we don't, or that the other side is pro-censorship when both sides have books they really don't like on shelves. It's a matter of which books. I keep bringing it up because the framing as though "they want to ban books, but our side doesn't because book bans are automatically fascist" is, I feel, hypocritical.

> As just one example, if a student asks a teacher what religion they are, and the teacher answers that they're a Christian -- if they're not directly proselytizing, that is protected speech. We had a court case about this recently before the Supreme Court, and while the details of that expression were contested and court members disagreed about whether that expression was protected -- the basic idea that teachers have freedom of speech was not contested.

And yet, if they were to say an optional non-denominational prayer before the beginning of class, they would often risk be fired. SCOTUS has ruled that's OK - they are not allowed to direct prayer in their official duties despite that somehow not infringing on their rights to freedom of speech. I think that's wrong but that's how that stands now.

> What? What on earth does this have to do with speech or censorship? Or are you implying this is a vice-versa restriction? It's not. If a teacher is in a sexual relationship with a student, it doesn't matter who started it, it's still grossly inappropriate.

My point was, is a teacher permitted to perform speech that would attempt to solicit such a relationship, in the name of freedom of speech? No laws were broken - she's at the legal age. The teacher had free speech, didn't he? Did she not have free speech? Did they both not have the freedom to associate with any individual of their choice? But we all accept penalties for it despite no laws officially broken.

Also, who are you to judge it as being grossly inappropriate? What is your basis for that? Again, you have no laws you can point to as having been broken. Why is it not an infringement on their human rights to judge them that way? Why does "Love is love" not apply? (I'm still against it BTW - I just want you to think about it. Either Love is Love, or sometimes, Love isn't always Love but that has implications...)
"will have" infers a future present though. 40% will have at some point in their life is substantively different than 50% having at a single moment in time

The other unique aspect of government is that you can remove power by voting them out in the next election. In contrast, a private monopoly can continue to use it's influence, money, and power, without recourse forever.

While on one hand, I admire the fastidious desire to reduce dependencies, the trade offs seem pretty dire.

I use hugo with the book theme (https://github.com/alex-shpak/hugo-book). It takes a bit of getting used to (if you're not familiar with hugo) but after that it's pretty good with all the flexibility that hugo provides for shortcodes, etc. You can get auto numbering of figures, equations, etc. with appropriate shortcodes. Is it possible to get autonumbering in mdBook?

It also gives a nice toc/tags on the right side (if you want it), and the ability to split the page into columns. The katex support is good (looks like mdBook uses mathjax) and publishing is easy and is just a push/rsync.

You misunderstood the intention of the program. The problem is not to help poor people, there are other programs available for that. The problem is to fight racial based discrimination, which is rampant in the US. Until the 60s, universities were out of reach for African Americans and other minorities, not just because of economic issues. This type of programs came to revert this situation.

You cannot outrun your diet. All of the weight loss came from dietary changes. Running as an exercise is really good for you but if you're not an actual athlete only contributes marginally to calories burnt.

I burn roughly 2000 calories for doing a 20km run, a bit more than an hour and a half of running, heart rate of 170 to 190bpm. There is 1300 calories in a large big mac meal [1]. Its stupid easy to consume excess calories. For the next day or two after a 20km run I feel so famished that I could eat 6000 to 8000 calories a day after that.

> Is 75% fraud not enough for you?

Are you unable to do math? If the net effect of the fraud is -1 per person and the net effect of the non-fraud is 5 per person, is the policy net beneficial or not? You have to show net negative benefit, not >50% fraud for a complete argument.

> If you think this is ok,

I don't think this is OK. I'm actually somewhat disinclined to believe AA for college admissions is good policy, preferring earlier interventions like better schooling and childcare in these communities. I am merely explaining what a complete argument looks like.

> I dont agree with this, and neither does Supreme Court

The Supreme Court didn't rule on whether the level of fraud is OK. It ruled on whether it violates the equal protection clause. Please read more carefully, both the comments here and the Court's opinion, both of which you have failed to understand.
Aka telling the mods “fuck around and find out.” Surprised it’s taken this long actually. There’s plenty of people who will line up to take on the job.
The formula for the power of gravitational radiation for two orbiting objects is:

W = 32 * G^4 / (5*c^5*r^5) * (M1*M2)^2 * (M1 + M2).

"r" is the orbital radius, "G" is the Newton's constant, "M1" and "M2" are the masses of the orbiting objects.

It's actually kinda amazing that once you substitute in all the values and do the math, all the scary large powers just somehow cancel out to leave a small macroscopic number (I remember getting around 60 watts).

Edit: note, that both objects radiate. So it's 60 watts for both the Earth and the Sun, around 120W in total.
The correct time to build something without LLVM was years ago, but taking the C++ functionality out now will probably be the end of Zig. I'm surprised they didn't announce a plan to write their own C++ compiler in Zig instead of phasing it out.
People still haven’t learned the lessons of Standard Oil.

The most obvious substitute for aspartame is sugar or high-fructose corn syrup. In liquid form, and the quantities that people drink soda, the health risks are immense. Cardiovascular decease kills a comparable amount of people as cancer overall, from all sources. For aspartame to end up a net negative, it’d have to be massively carcinogenic.

Certainly its better to replace Diet Coke with water, all else equal, but the effort in changing habits is much higher. There is a ton of preventable decease due to bad diet and lack of exercise, despite well known causes. So why is that?

Health discussions have this psychological bias where people think “be more like me” is effective (don’t do drugs, just go out and meet people, exercise more, just stop smoking). The fact that people think like this, despite the war on drugs disaster, is madness. Especially when the solution is so simple: throw the moralism away and focus solely on harm reduction – also known as “whatever works”. Just good old empiricism.

> Just as PyTorch lets you send a model .to("cuda"), Runhouse enables hardware heterogeneity by letting you send your code (or dataset, environment, pipeline, etc) .to(“cloud_instance”, “on_prem”, “data_store”...), all from inside a Python notebook or script.

From an SRE perspective, this sounds like a nightmare. Controlled releases are really important for reliability. I definitely don't want my devs doing manual rollouts from a notebook.
For me doing the exercise doesn't burn as many calories, but after I run, I want to eat healthier. If I've been sitting around all day, an ice cream cone sounds good.

If I was just reminded of how hard it is to burn 100 calories - it's not. So I think there's perhaps a subconscious nuance here.
> It is really a wholesome plant extract instead of something chemists have invented which leads me to have confidence in its (so far as we know) lack of carcinogenicity.

This sounds like the naturalistic fallacy [1]. A naturally occurring substance is not automatically less carcinogen, or harmful, than a manufactured one. Coffee is associated with elevated risk for bladder cancer. Cycad trees are known to be highly carcinogenic. Mycotoxins (mold) are toxic and carcinogenic. Aflatoxin from peanuts is found to be carcinogenic.

I'm not saying that stevia is not safe, but safety has nothing to do with being natural or not.

To add in a slightly different angle, this sort of thing is not exclusive to America.

For example, in New Zealand, a couple of weeks ago there was a bit of a kerfuffle due to reporting on those of certain ethnicities being prioritised on surgical wait lists.

Those against it were arguing (validly) that prioritisation should only be based on clinical need.

However, the data over many years was showing that for people with the same clinical need, those from the minority ethnicities were not getting the same prioritisation.

So how do you resolve this? In an ideal world you will dig into the details, and figure out why that was happening, and resolve the underlying issues. But as with a lot of these problems with a human element there's no quick and easy solution.

Instead you get a "hack" like this to increase the weight of the minorities to even things out overall, hopefully to be removed later while you resolve the trickier issues.

Sometimes just targeting things to those in most need doesn't always fairly target across ethnic groups.

I lost my passport while in the United Kingdom and had no other identifying documentation with me. The US embassy had me fill out a ~10 question sheet of paper and then "checked me out". 30 minutes later they said I was "good" and would have a new passport delivered to me in 48 hours.

UK/US relations are pretty good. I'm sure this situation could have been a lot worse in more unfriendly countries but I'm still shocked this solution was even possible.
The mother seemed very honest during her interview with the BBC [1], not playing the "ZOMG I lost my husband and son!!!" angle, but I did think she might've done this to quieten all the "screw them billionaires, they deserved it!" crowd, by showing them that there are actually people grieving their loss.

Also I think she's only done this one interview. Even the question of "How are you?" was answered with contemplation, not hysterics...

Unless you suggest an omnipotent being intervene, I'm not sure how you intend to enact perfect fairness. Circumstances change over time. With some help from other nations, I imagine Ukraine could recover quite nicely from the war in time (once it's over). People won't come back to life, sure, but that's been true for eons. Unfortunately, African-Americans generally don't have the potential for such a positive outcome, which is why reform needs to happen. To go back on topic, I just don't think AA is the solution (or, at best, it's an aspect of the solution to be phased out eventually). I've said my ideas of reform elsewhere.

Germany didn't "launch" WWI. WWI was "launched" by political and revolutionary pressures triggering a complex of alliances in Europe and the Ottoman Empire. WWII had similarly complex causes. It's a ridiculous simplification to lay the blame for launching these wars on one country alone, regardless of how things went.
Storm cells can experience tremendous downdrafts, such that falling objects (rain, hail, small children, etc.) can see higher-than-gravitational acceleration.

This is especially the case in a downburst event, where cold air suddenly collapses down through the cloud column. Which might itself be associated with / a trigger for hail formation.

These downdrafts (as well as the resulting horizontal outflows of air near ground-level) have caused a number of aircraft accidents, a combination of both trying to fly through a descending air column and the sudden changes in registered airspeed as the craft first fights a strong headwind (increasing lift), then experiences a strong tailwind (decreasing it), and even causing the aircraft to stall from insufficient airspeed.
