- Lead by example. Be responsible about your own use and be honest about it.

- Help them engage in constructive risk taking behavior. Sports are a common example, and there's plenty of research showing that they reduce harmful behavior. Teens, specifically males explore risky behavior. They have these new magnificent bodies and they want to test their limits.

- Be present, available and engaged with them. Some of the time, they'll want you out of their face. That's fine, but try and keep routines like family meals, and talk to them, if they're willing.

- Try to maintain the family. Sometimes a divorce/separation is the right thing, but for the kids, most of the time, keeping the family together in a dual-parent family is very important.
I’m astounded by the pervasiveness of this meme, given its origins are really from a Mac vs PC internet flame war era that I would like to think we’ve moved past.

I’m astounded by the fact that one can imply with a straight face no less that over half the market are status-driven dorks that have no legitimate reason to use an iPhone over an Android phone, the obviously superior for all people in all circumstances choice used by the enlightened few that aren’t concerned with such banal things as social status.

Occam’s razor would imply that this view is perhaps wrong and that you’re just missing something.

I use an iPhone for a lot of reasons. One of these is that I’m legally blind. For my purposes, accessibility features on iOS easily run rings around those on Android. Full stop. Arguing against that is ridiculous. Sectioning me out and saying “I wasn’t talking about you@ because disability is a sacred cow is ridiculous.

Just please don’t make these conversations so charged with this tired old rhetoric that simultaneously chastises such a wide group for imagined status-seeking in a way that simultaneously ties your own (non-iPhone) choice in to an imagined desirable personality trait.

Ring's marketing is one of the many things that are contributing to the increasing isolation and alienation of people from each other.
It's one thing I hate about this site. You can't tell "the truth as you know it," and instead have to pretend to be "curious." I'm generally curious, so it's not a difficult requirement most days.

Well, guess what? Some things are actually bad-and it's obvious—and we are experienced enough to know it. Child abuse would fall into that category. After confirmation, no "curiosity" is needed in that instance.

(I understand the angle about conversation deteriorating quickly, and am still here, right? But damn I hate it when we can't state obvious truth because it is not "polite." )
I’m guessing the latter.

My gut reaction to this was “why bother.” But even if a pathogen isn’t spread via toilet water aerosol today, it doesn’t mean a new pathogen can’t emerge that could use this transmission vector in the future.

That said, a virus that spreads in this manner should be containable by having some kind of sterilization agent in the toilet water (already commercially available products you can use that adds bleach (or similar) to the water. Typically a slowly dissolving brick of chemical added to the back of your toilet
One precursor to the Industrial Revolution was the bubonic plague. When the Black Death wiped out so much of Europe, labor became more expensive, and farming required the invention of tools. Did Rome have any similar events?

Ask HN: Will LLMs increase or decrease the value of human-written text?
LLMs let us generate plausible sentences that may as well have been written by a human. I’m expecting there to be a flood of LLM-generated text on the internet in the coming years.

I’ve been wondering about the value of human-written text. Specifically, both Twitter and Reddit have closed off programmatic access to their vast amounts of text, having supplied training data for free for so long. Do you expect there to be a premium on human-written text? Or for LLMs to displace the need for human-written text?

I seem to recall, but can't find the source, that the science behind talc causing ovarian cancer is, at best, suspect. That considering the darn near universal usage of talc in mid-century USA, finding people who both used talc and developed ovarian cancer is not at all indicative of talc being a causal agent in the development of cancer. Does anyone who is more knowledgeable clarify?

And I do ask this as someone who really misses talc on those hot summer days.

Good on you for targeting learners. Recommend sharing that focus on outreach messages like this- instead of asking generically for "feedback" which no one has time to provide, say that you are looking for those who are interested in learning about how blockchains work, etc

Sure, it's important to give them feedback. That's a different thing from merely thinking for them, however. A (brief) conversation about the effects they may have on others and the feelings they expect others to have would go a long way toward engendering more pro-social considerations.

I think that's an excellent point. Social media fatigue seems at its peak in this time of transition, further accelerated by the COVID era.

People are becoming aware of their over-usage and the largely minimal or even negative benefits that come from social media altogether. Or just bored and indifferent about it. The fatigue is further strengthened when they soon learn that the alternatives are worse or at best just moving the problem.

I'd advocate for people to stop rather than cheer for any new potential winner. Just uninstall the app and walk away. It was all a lie anyway. You're not in a "community". You do not actually have followers. You did not learn anything new that you couldn't learn elsewhere.

They are lies we tell ourselves as we play the slot machine. Throw it in the trash.
Oh no no, in my reading of the sentiments here they are emotionally invested in seeing the whole xthreads things crash and burn. I’m buying popcorn.

I don't see the 2020 SE getting software upgrades for much longer, it's already the bottom of the barrel for iOS17, so I guess you're OK to forgo those for a while ?

If your phone needs are low enough you can get by with the SE in 2026, buying a Gakaxy A series today would totally fit the bill, and you probably could get one new at the same price and way cheaper used.

Knives are not particularly aerodynamically stable. (Not these, anyway.) They need some spin to avoid tumbling erratically.

Nobody cares which point on a baseball hits the bat, although they do care about spin because it contributes to path changes via aerodynamic effects.

Hi. I did my master's in computational biology focusing on androgen independent prostate cancer. After that I worked in an autoimmunology lab. My projects included rheumatoid arthritis GWAS and b-cell phylogeny. To demonstrate that we did case-control matching correctly, I looked at how well self-reported ancestry corresponds to hapmap populations. The mapping is very noisy. "Race" is a social classification, sure it's correlated with biological markers but there are better measures. So, yeah, "race" as such isn't important.

Unlike most other suggestions in this thread, which are US/Canada only, this actually works in my corner of the Earth. Price is a bit high (yes, I'm a cheapskate, but I'll also be a very low-volume account), but might give it a spin. Thank you!
Lots of people used Twitter to keep in touch with professional peers and other non-outrage communities of interest. So that’s a cheap lazy take.

But I do think there’s some regret that is similar in nature to the Eternal September. Things were “fine” before the plebes and political interests found the platform.
ugh, no, i grew up without a TV but i had TV in my 20s. one thing i learned very quickly that flipping channels was a waste of time. instead i would study the TV guide every week and mark every show that i wanted to watch or if i would't be able to watch at the time, record, and then i never watched anything but what i had marked.

and ever since i have the ability to watch what i want any time because it's always available or i can download it, i do the same, but now i can choose when to watch without letting the TV dictate my schedule.

I've spent a fair amount of time in a number of SA countries, including Colombia (and other places around the world) because of work. One thing I quickly grew to learn is that it depends on what pathogens your body is already used to and can fight off without much ill effect.

Part of the confusion is that people in some places drink the tap water and have no problems because they've been drinking it their entire lives, but the moment someone who is not accustomed to it partakes, it's an instant case of Montezuma's Revenge.

Also, some countries have ultra-hard water, lead, mercury, etc, so any damage is delayed and unnoticed until after years of accumulation. I still wouldn't recommending drinking it even for a short duration. This is readily apparent in the Middle East, since most water has to travel very long distances to get to your cup. That's probably not an issue in Colombia, though. The pathogens almost certainly are, though.

There are lots of reasons to opt for bottled water when traveling to less affluent locations. If they don't chlorinate their water, it's likely to be bad news for visiters.
Odd. My ring camera and Livestream etc are all working fine.

The "get off my lawn" vibe was totally intended. Doesn't change the fact that there are a bunch of "AWS architects" out there running Terraform and building future disasters because they don't properly understand the infrastructure that the whole thing sits upon.

It's just like the morons who think that dynamic linking should be abolished for everyone, because they don't understand the use cases for distributors from a security standpoint, developers/users who require binary modules, or how to use their distributions packaging tools to avoid conflicts, and are too lazy to learn. But oh no, "ma DLL hell". Good grief.

This is an extremely annoying read. I was hoping for a rich dataset. The USCG and Government datasets are extremely sparse - especially in polar regions. Here you have the US Healy traversing the arctic and the only data collection this team sought to obtain from this voyage was a FLIR images and and broken up video clips (day rates for such vessels can easily run in the $50K/day US). What about filling the vast gaps in subsurface ocean and ice data? What about RF signal reception? Biological data?

"We had 100-foot cables made for this project just in case of this type of scenario, which was a good thing because we only had a few inches to spare," Emily says.

I'm sorry, but that's just 100% poor planning (read 100% "avoidable" by simply mapping the cable route ship arrangement drawings a priori) that almost jeopardized the entire data gathering effort. It's a single surveillance camera and data storage, mounted on a bulkhead. Not rocket science.

I would honestly be embarrassed to be interviewed for this article if this were me.

Apologies for venting, but this is really frustrating.

I'm trying to think what would have pushed me and people I know to have more kids. I'm not convinced that more social services is the most important thing. We've been indoctrinated since before high school that getting pregnant is a negative outcome. A lot of society, especially middle class and above really down weights having kids as a priority until people are old enough to push for it themselves. So you have everyone being told career etc is more important, pregnancy is a bad thing, and then they realize often too late they want kids and either have fewer or find they can't.

I think the real solution is education about the upside of having kids and normalizing parenthood in one's 20's as a good life choice and as being successful.
Okay. Good for you. Your experience does not match my own at all.
I don’t think the typical knife is stable in flight that way.

In my layman’s physics, the knife edge will keep pointing forwards if the knife handle would decelerate faster than the knife blade, when thrown that way in isolation.

So, you either need more mass in the knife blade or more air resistance in the knife handle to get that.

However if I can show that the pavement is wet because it rained and if it rains, then the pavement is going to get wet, I have a clearly established causation. (in general ceteris paribus).

> nor is it an implication that it’s for power-users.

Yes it is. As an administrator being a CLI tool means that I can automate configs and deployment with ansible or Nix OS. I would argue doing these sorts of automation what are what “power-users” would do.

GUI’s often lack any sort of automation capability or have some half-cocked API that usually lacks features or endpoints that would be trivial if the thing was just a CLI tool with a config file.
No-GIL mode coming for Python
Because the kids now, and their parents, have mostly gone through an education system that constantly hammers you on how you need to get into the top college, you must go to college, you should be taking as many AP classes as possible to get into a top college. They've had 30 or so years to be propagandized into believing it.

There was also definitely a strong undercurrent of first-generation immigrants to the US pushing their kids hard, because they had no reason to distrust the message that if you want to succeed in the US, you need to go to a top college so you can get a good job.
FWIW, mine is working fine
There are probably a lot of prisoners who could safely benefit from alternative treatments. (Safety as judged from the perspective of law-abiding members of society.)

But there is certainly a subset of them who would not be safe to treat outside of prison. And those people should remain in prison, IMO.
How would you feel if data pertaining to your interactions with government were made public just because the government is taxpayer-funded?

How about data pertaining to your kids?

Any Joe Taxpayer doesn’t have a right to walk in and demand any data they want from a government department. That’s entirely entirely reasonable. Anonymising data isn’t nearly as easy as a passer-by with “faker.fake_name()” may think it is.
Depends on the rain. We don't have the cold rain I was used to from the south. Such that I'm perfectly fine biking in all year and basically all weather.

The waste, waste majority of sats never turn into space debris. Every single sat that launches today in the West has a deorbit planned. The only sat that turn into space debris will be those that brake unexpectitly and totally unrecoverable.

And the Starlink sats are so low that they dont really turn very meaningful debris ever.

And in general, yes LEO can handle millions of sats.

I know they say specifically that they don't want a repeat of the Python3 transition scenario, but the approach they're taking now still veers eerily close to that path, at least it looks that way to me.

A lot will depend on the Python community and the distribution channels. I could see the community struggling to adopt it in a timely fashion, or distributions jumping the gun (Ubuntu, Fedora, Anaconda). Maybe it's too early to make hard decisions, but how much control does the SC really have to avoid such a scenario?
That's blatantly false, you have a variety of tools at hand from VMs to containers to AppArmor policies. Whether those tradeoffs are worth it for you are a decision you can make.

"I don't want to make that decision! I want total privacy!" - Great, use Tails which is a distro that goes all in on privacy.
