Indian education system is built by the British, they needed some locals to do clerical work, who repeat what the masters said is knowledge (remember and and faithfully reproduce), follow orders.

How would this work? This is a test that operates on the honor system where it's guaranteed that everyone knows the right answer.

It must either be the case that no problems will arise if people are free to lie about their vision -- in other words, that acuity of vision has nothing to do with performance at the special tasks gated by this test -- or that the appearance of the stars changes day-to-day, so that someone who is known to be able to see all seven is capable of telling the difference between a testee who can also see all seven and a testee who is lying about their ability to do so.

Everything you learn about CPUs in your CS undergrad program is applicable to GPUs. Both are examples of von Neumann architecture, both have registers, ALUs, ISA, instruction schedulers, cache hierarchy, external DRAM, etc. The main difference is how they are being used - GPU, while a general purpose computer, is typically used as an accelerator for specific workloads, and it needs CPU to function. The distinction between the two is getting blurred as GPUs get better at executing control flows, and CPUs get more cores and wider vector operations.

My understanding is that there isn't really any international body that steps in to rule on (say) treaties made by the USofA and various Indian nations.

History.com states (correctly or not) that "From 1778 to 1871, the United States signed some 368 treaties with various Indigenous people across the North American continent."

Given the article that sourced this thread is about uranium mining in Utah, it might be of interest to recap how that has been handled in the past eighty years:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranium_mining_and_the_Navajo_...

The dot point summary would be "not great" (understatement), although the Navajo Nation did get saddled with 521 abandoned uranium mine areas most of which require a great deal of clean up and for which (IIRC) they have yet to receive any paper towels.
I never thought about this, but what if you shoot at 30 fps and want to produce 24? How do you map 30 onto 24 time-wise? In 30, each frame lasts 33.33ms. In 24 it’s 41.66. So if the first frame is synced, the second frame of something captured in 30 and transformed to 24 would show up 8.3ms too late. The third - 16.ms, and so on. It’s not possible to properly sync video to 24fps if it was shot at 30 without interpolation, right?

I'd like the same but with one more deployment option: create a (simple) static site that doesn't require any web server. I started an old relative on Dreamweaver about 25 years ago thinking that simple HTML files would make a good, open, archival rich-text alternative to plaintext. He wrote many articles that can still be double-clicked and viewed on any platform today and are among the most likely doc formats to still be readable a century from now (if any still are).

I had hoped that simple HTML would become a better choice than PDF or MS-Word for ordinary people writing for posterity, but unlike old Dreamweaver, almost all HTML tools today produce docs that must be served by a web server (and consist of separate HTML, CSS, JS, img files that get scattered.)

That seems like a weird interpretation of the original definition. Especially the “devops specialist” part.

I once felt bad about that as well. Then I learned all I could about the cost of living in the US and didn't feel so bad anymore. It's possible to live extremely comfortably here if you get paid in USD. With enough money, it even becomes possible to just ignore the numerous problems plaguing this country.

No idea why they'd give up that opportunity over worker rights. Were it not for the labor arbitrage opportunity, the american company probably wouldn't have been offering those jobs in the first place. Brazilian companies aren't offering more.

> I might be getting way too pedantic with this

Being pedantic is sometimes a good way to escape the deeper moral questions at play. It may give give us lawyerly oh-and-ah moments but the benefits are illusionary. The underlying problem remains unresolved.

Now, many of the lands that various government (around the world) now own were acquired by force. The original owners lost control of that land and sometimes now live on the sidelines of society in abject conditions.

When there are treaties with indigenous people, then the governments should try to adhere to their spirit (if not the exact letter) as much as feasible. Some consulation and a small profit share for things like mining are the right way to go (when the treaties imply economic rights to the indigenous party).

If we don't follow this, your argument is essentially saying: might is right and rules of the jungle apply. Treaties are agreements. Agreements mostly protect the weak because the stronger party always has the incentive to break the agreement when the terms become inconvenient to them.

Should your bank suddenly simply renege on your fixed rate morgage contract and raise your interest sky high because it just _can_ ? No. Agreements and treaties should have some sanctity.

Having done executive level consulting for two of the biggest mining operations in the world, it's my anecdotal observations that the execs at those companies have some of the lowest/worst ethics I have ever seen in my 20+ years of work.

To put it into context, I have worked with lawmakers / politicians, lobbyists, fortune 100 boards / exec teams and porn companies. By far the worst human beings I have ever encountered in my life (who weren't like, legitimately criminals, at trial) were the people in the mining industry.

Mold making is a difficult science of itself. I can’t point you in a general direction beyond what worked for me. I started with OpenSCAD then moved to FreeCAD then eventually ended up with Fusion360. You need to have a vision for what you want to make, or else you won’t follow through till the end with learning. There is some dude from Texas who wrote a textbook on the subject that was invaluable for me in learning how to design oxygenation and cooling techniques. This is hardcore industrial engineering stuff, the kind of thing that you don’t casually do.if you’re trying to learn and do this yourself you need to not be afraid of doing some applied physics.

There was a lot of crying and pain and trial and error for me to teach myself. If you know what you want I would instead go on fiverr or its equivalent of the day and hire yourself an actual mold designer and save yourself 90% of the pain and heartache that I went through. Mold designers are weirdly cheap for the insane amount of expertise they offer

Printing the mold is another heartache of itself. I used anycubic photon with a flex plate and Sriraya resin. That was a journey all by itself - I originally started with insanely expensive Formlabs stuff before getting to the Anycubic solution. Again it took a lot of crying and trial and error to get it right. But it costs a mere fraction of what it costs to do it the normal way at least

Another stat which is not particularly helpful out of context. Per mile driven, per per job, per hour of service? Are there any external factors that might influence this (e.g. are a significant proportion of these ambulances getting hit by drunk drivers at night time).

I also don’t see a break down of lights OR sirens (not sure in the US, but in Europe often at night, emergency vehicles operate without sirens unless the driver believes it necessary).

There’s also a statement that the majority of these accidents happen at intersections and traffic signals, but does not consider that it is likely the number would be higher without lights and sirens, and instead likely this is caused by emergency vehicles operating outside the normal of driving.

I am not an expert in this, and these 14 groups surely seem to be, but the statement’s statistics don’t do much to help support their argument.

Does the political branch make the decisions? No. But they choose the people that do!

This by no means implies any control over interest rates. At all.

People are appointed, and that's where political input ends. And those appointed stay appointed, are not chosen lightly, markets do not react well to poor choice.

By your metric, you'd think our Supreme court judges were puppets too. They aren't.

People may have political leanings, but understand, that is not the same as allowing input where it is not allowed.

The government cannot interfere with the judicial branch, nor with fiscal policy. To do so, renders it a banana republic, or dictatorship, any attempts would be disaster, for those appointed take this very seriously.

A core part of the job is to ignore ministers, the PMO, and so on.
