There are a couple of things to consider.

1) Women don't need men in modern society. They would likely stay married longer and be more picky about the type of man to bread with if they were stuck with him forever. The benefit is that women don't get stuck in abusive relationships.

2) Modern dating is turning us into polygamists. Women will pursue the top 10% (or so) of men and those men have little incentive to get married. There is a financial penalty to having children, but much less than getting married and having children. Of course this leads to single mothers with, at best, part time fathers.
Personally I would like to see us go below countries like Afghanistan (4.0), Argentina (4.6), Kenya (5.3), Iran (2.4), Israel (1.9), Palestine (0.9), or India (2.9). And preferably as low as, for instance, Spain (0.6), or even Japan (0.2).

This doesn't address the parent comment's entire point. It's possible that the trend of 'lighter policing' leads to less reported crimes but not actually fewer crimes has been going on since the 2000s.

This is an oft repeated trope that flies in the face of evolutionary history [1]. Because it doesn't actually work, I think that it reflects socioeconomic class demarcations -- that is, the upper class and the lower classes take different strategies.

Probably, but it's true.

Ignorant isn't bad, people want and should learn. It isn't an insult but I find it hilarious how the continunation of conversation from yesterday to today is this. HN is unfortunately USA centric and a majority of people in the USA do not know what happens outside the 48' borders.
A nice gold watch and no bonus even. Then the next year they internally announced to management they were going to downsize a good portion of the staff, but they couldn't tell anyone.

So he left the meeting. Told everyone he managed, and never went back.
I am not surprised people think things are getting worse. negative stuff is always going viral on Twitter, stuff like looting videos, shoplifting videos, fight footage, public freakouts, etc. The ubiquity of smart phones and social media means occurrences of unrest that decades ago would have been ignored, are recorded and uploaded to go viral. It's like the 24-7 news cycle but on steroids and magnified. Everyone is now a reporter, and footage is promoted by algos.
I think that is a very odd view of events.

Thank you all for killing less people this year.
2003 wasn't great in hindsight, but peak homicide rate in the US was closer to 1993.
There’s many ways to validate crime statistics. For example insurance claims are linked to the number of property crimes independent of what police report.

More broadly violent crime has been falling for literally thousands of years. There’s various short term bumps in the rate, but the general trend is down across all societies. The past was simply vastly more dangerous than we are used to.
I was called it in both senses of the word and I think that was extremely common for people of a certain generation. I saw the full time special ed getting called that more than occasionally. There were all sorts of popular memes like “arguing on the internet is like winning the special olympics…”

What do you know? The biggest thing I noticed after “retard” fell out of favour is more specific insults like “autist” became more prevalent and I’d say this rotation of the euphemism treadmill has only made stigma worse for certain groups because “retard” was used as such a catch-all that the stigma of it didn’t really seem to stick to people much.

As for banning slurs from Reddit, irrespective of slurs should be banned for the good of those being slurred, they cause derails and are magnets for reports.
I’m surprised how many of these pillboxes are scheduled monuments (i.e. preserved for historical value). Seems like it’s worth keeping one or two around, but I’m not seeing the historical or aesthetic value in preserving many of them in perpetuity.
The Triangle Table
Here's the part that addresses your point:

> The decline goes beyond homicides: Violent crime overall ticked down in 2022 across the country, the FBI numbers showed, returning the U.S. pretty much to the level of 2019, before the COVID-19-era increase.

It looks like the original survey was asking about whether there is anywhere near the respondent's home where they'd be afraid walk at night. That sounds to me like it's very much a question about perception rather than statistics. Of course, people rarely base that kind of belief on hard evidence: a single incident that happened to a friend of a friend might be enough to make you say "I'm never walking in that neighborhood at night".

The whole thing reads very elitist, if not propaganda.

1. "Dropping at a historic rate" is such a weird thing to brag when it's just falling back to the pre-Covid level.

While technically correct for longer time frames, setting a performance governor on both windows and linux basically means that it comes out of idle at the max allowable frequency. In order to achieve this it basically means that idle isn't adjusting the clock rates (to avoid the transition latencies) for idle times less than 2x those latencies. Depending on the core/firmware/etc it may be gating the clock, or clock skipping, which can save some power

And yes it can waste energy you can measure with the your battery monitor (or UPS/PDU) but its also possible to measure the interrupt handling latency/etc, and for some cores it can make a very noticeable difference to desktop latency if you happen to be sensitive to such things.

While I've posted elsewhere about clamping the clock rate to save power, I also do the converse when plugged in by cutting off the bottom 2/3rds of the frequency range. This results in a far more responsive desktop in linux and even windows to a lesser extent.
Agreed but food stamps are finitely available per unit time, whereas wealthy people could be considered availed of far far more food stamps per unit time.
since a few generations ago boosts have become so good that for many use-cases base clock don't matter that much

AFIK it's basically tweaked AMD EPYC™ 9654 with much higher boost and some other changes, so that's probably where the base clock comes from

some situations where the base clock might still matter:

- you perfectly max out CPU utilization (no I/O, hardly cache misses, etc.) and at the same time have exactly only the thermal headroom from the spec and run it for a "long" time

- you want to max optimize for watter/perf the best power efficiency is likely around the base clock (for this one because of my assumption of it being more or less a tweaked server processor, on a typical consumer desktop PC I would say likely quite a bit below the base clock)
Only if you make insurance claims. I’ve had many things stolen and I’ve never made any claims. Or filed any reports.
I believe you're discounting the power of Fox News[0].

Those comments could be troll farms, or real people, no idea. But, a non-trivial portion of America thinks like this. Ignore/discounting this group is actually how Trump won the presidency. Progressives got ahead of themselves (ourselves?) and got blind-sided.

My main takeaway is that ownership of those metals isn't translated into them being used for manufacturing, and since they generally aren't used for manufacturing and they aren't being moved when ownership transfers, there is very little reason to audit them.

So if they eventually DO end up being purchased for manufacturing but upon inspection are found to be short stocked or it's the wrong material entirely, the commenter was speculating that replacing the fake material with the real thing would be covered somehow either by the warehouse collecting storage fees or insurance.

Seems like a lot of unicorn hunting out there, right now.

At least for senior data leadership roles, I’ve hit a lot of JDs that were clearly written for one person (either internally, or the random Meta/Google/whatever layoff that this company is sure will take a 75% salary cut for). Networking has been really invaluable. ATS systems seem slightly more inscrutable than when I was looking two years ago (wonder if there’s some weird effect from LLM-enabled resume spam).

I dunno, it’s not horrible, but it’s definitely worse right now than I remember it in the last five or six years.
Because of (2): I am less 'patriotic' and will put myself above "my nation" because of what online dating has shown regarding male attraction.

I have no skin in this game in any way that would have me contributing to society; and, from twenty years of experience being told repeatedly I am not good enough, I will act completely selfishly. It is my duty, and the duties of other "leftover men" like me, to minimize any sort of sense of civic duty, contribution, and taxation, and to keep an eye out for a much better deal (even if it's in a foreign country). We must not let The State turn us into cucks: let the nation of single mothers sink or swim on its own without us!
Why would anyone go through all this trouble just to get an nvme running on RP5? I get the fun in complexity but just not worth the effort. Sure you are learning through the process but I hate that you have to jump hoops just to get that option available when they could have done so at the design stages. I love my raspberry pi 4. But I also enjoy my Dell Micro PC and HP Elite. They make awesome media centers and much more. Regardless of the opinion, I appreciate the information shared.
In the past 10 years I only worked with one manager who had staff level IC skills. It’s much more common to have a mediocre EM that doesn’t even look at the code. If you’re “managing” a 4 person team and not at least looking at PRs, seeing the actual work product, you are out of touch.
These things never worked for me. Maybe I don't understand how to look at them correctly to get whatever 3D effect they're supposed to make, but for the life of me, I could never see anything at all in those patterns, neither on screen nor when printed.

edit: I found this video[1] with pairs of images that tells you to hold sunglasses in front of your right eye if you can't defocus your vision correctly. This worked for me with an ND filter, it really feels like it shouldn't do anything but I did see depth. Those patterns though, still no idea how to make them work.

This research is entirely bogus. As Matt Bruenig points out:

> In general, there was some kind of problem present in the family that experienced the divorce that was not present in the family that did not experience the divorce. To actually analyze the effect of the divorce, you would need to compare the divorced family to a hypothetical version of itself that did not divorce despite whatever the problem was that lead to the divorce.

> Another way to put this is: you need to compare couples with the same kinds of relationship dysfunctions, but where one couple splits and the other couple stays together. Comparing a split-couple with a certain relationship dysfunction to an intact-couple that does not have that relationship dysfunction, which is what all of this research does, is an obvious mistake.

> To put this in less abstract terms, if dad beats mom and they get divorced, it’s not accurate to say that, but for the divorce, the kids would have fared exactly the same as a similar non-divorced family where dad does not beat mom. Yet that is what the research Kearney relies upon assumes.

That's 114 homicides this year. Seattle has a population of 750,000.

I don't have any knowledge of what a "reasonable" homicide rate is, but that seems extraordinarily low for anywhere in any point in history.
They really should change phrases like this that causes a lot of confusion and misunderstandings before changing stuff like "whitelist".
anything toxic really. it is interesting which toxins are focused on though.
Sure, but what matters is if they track the actual crime rate right? If you’ve never made any claims then you’ve never been a significant data point to begin with.
Excuse me what? You’re claiming there are only 0.9 homicides per 100k people in Palestine? That’s so far from the truth I can’t begin to take you seriously.
Don't you need a police report to file an insurance claim for stolen property?
The gender is irrelevant part is technically true, if the argument was 2 > 1. But deeper down, it does matter. The care a father VS mother gives is entirely different.
I actually don't understand the logic of lighter policing resulting in fewer reported crimes. I can see it possibly resulting in police discovering or interrupting fewer crimes, and I can see it resulting in fewer arrests, but the idea that you're not going to report a burglary because your local politician is seen as soft on crime doesn't make sense to me - for starters, you'll need that police report to make an insurance claim.

What I can see causing a drop in reported crime is a lack of trust between police and a community - people may choose not to get the police involved out of fear they will make the situation worse, overreact, or may deem the punishment too harsh.
No, but homicides are an important benchmark because there is consistency in what constitutes a homicide and murder is hard to brush under the rug or categorize as a lesser crime. If homicides decrease it is a good indicator of overall safety of a city.

With that said, theft seems to be getting worse in many places and that is probably a direct result of lighter sentencing for petty theft.
current AI buzztalk is hogwash, then.

there is zero intelligence in any of this.

this is all intelligence in name only.
In my experience (wife is a breeder of shepherds), the ones cause it.

I’ve literally seen a puppy come back that was “scared of its own shadow”, that I’ve taken out to loud chaotic environments with out a reaction from the dog.

I’ve seen a perfectly stable pup go out, and become fearful of the world.

The wife no longer sells pups to service dog homes where the potential owner has anxiety issues, shepherds are very emotionally sensitive and pick up on the owners anxiety, it imprint it.

I’ve also seen dogs that weren’t the most stable goto solid homes and come out rock solid.
A sub note is that happy married parents do better. Happy, married and engaged parents.

The disengaged parent does much much harm. Like someone who had a father who was never engaged and, growing up, he felt he missed that father figure, got into trouble, rebelled and, now as a father, is terrified of inflicting the same wounds onto his son.
I’m looking at it from more than just “cost of infrastructure”. You also have to consider reliability, managed vs unmanaged, the competencies and expertise of your team, organizational constraints whether you have a more or less static or dynamic workload…

Microsoft and AWS have versions of the “Cloud Adoption Framework”

And the TOGAF framework has something similar

I am saying when considering any “large” implementation there are a lot of considerations outside of infrastructure bills.

I’m not saying that every company should go cloud. But the “lenses” you have to look through are multifaceted
Very useful comment, thanks. I’ll need to read up a Wikipedia article to get the details but the emphasis on price controls is noteworthy.

Besides my lazy and misleading usage of the term “socialized,” I guess the question still stands: how do we change our system to more closely reflect these other systems? Highly discouraging to think about.

In addition to what others have mentioned, advances in trauma care could be responsible for the longer term decline that's been going on before the pandemic.
This is hard to quantify so people will insist it’s not happening. But I have seen it too: there’s a set within America which insist it’s getting more dangerous regardless of which way the trend line points.

It used to be people lived near their extended family. Lots of parents there.

Be aware that this "nuclear family" is a recent and historically strange thing. It has not been tested in the long term. In all likelihood it's bad for us.
I fear you’re Goodharting this into oblivion. The only endgame of “people who don’t make claims aren’t significant” is police becoming so inept as to never secure property or arrest thrives (already there), and insurance companies having such massive premium hikes on-incident as to make filing claims net-negative in all but the most egregious cases (approaching there).

You've mixed up the current level with the rate of decline. The article is pretty clear about it.
You could eat kilos of this stuff and it would just be an interesting protein supplement. The sequence is specific to a gene in these insects its targeting. Even if it was human specific I doubt eating it would lead to anything. It would probably be degraded readily.

> Engineering managers are responsible for their team’s output; they are often held responsible when their team fails to deliver. Product Managers are responsible for setting and prioritizing the product roadmap across a lot of stakeholders, often with specific business goals to achieve, and spending a lot of time doing stuff like talking to customers and helping with marketing/sales/planning/etc; they are also often held responsible when they don’t deliver on these tasks.

While this is not wrong, ask yourself as a thought experiment, what happens to the engineers if an EM over promises due to incorrect scoping or a PM leads engineers down a rabbit hole that the company doesn't care about? Hint: The engineers still toiled for that wild goose chase.

In my experience, there are far too many stakeholders (EM, PM etc.) who want work to be done by engineers but none of the stakeholders want to listen when engineering points out some fallacy, or incorrect scoping, or unknown unknowns.

Engineers don't get heard even though they are the ones doing the work. Instead, they often get blamed for speaking the truth. As simple as that.

These points are laid out as if they're clearly true but I'm not sure that's the case. It reduces people to rational actors and assumes they're all optimizing for certain conditions but both of those assumptions are clearly false to me. In any case, I'd like to hear all this talk about women from the perspective of a woman.
