Public school teaching in Korea has a reputation for pretty good pay, but more importantly, for job security. Being a teacher is said to significantly improve one's attractiveness as a marriage prospect because of that. Admittance to teaching programs has been competitive in the past (just being in the top 1/3 wasn't a guarantee), but I don't know the current situation with college admissions in that field.

Complications from a colonoscopy?
Colonoscopy has a big advantage in that they are already in there. If they see anything forming that is pre-cancerous they can take it out before it turns into a problem that would show up on a Cologuard test.
I never thought I would see an American Exceptionalist comment about a system of measurements.

Metric measurements are as intuitive to me as American customary units are to you. I can just as easily use my handspan or the lengths of my fingers to estimate lengths in centimetres as you can in inches. I know without thinking what clothes I should wear when I see the weather forecast in Celsius. I know roughly what temperature I should set the oven to in Celsius based on what I’m cooking.

Having grown up in a metric country, American or imperial units mean nothing to me. If I’d grown up in America I’m sure American units would be intuitive for me. The only difference, as you say, is metric is far easier and more intuitive as soon as you want to do anything complicated with those measurements.
I was satisfied with the answer given in the Discussion section at the end of the article.
Most of these are optional, one can stay with a very simple stack similar the LAMP stack i.e. a web server, a database and a backend language on Linux for small to mid-sized apps. And pick something simple for CI/CD.

Of course if you are into enterprise or 'web scale', things can get a bit more complicated, but it's how complicated you make it to be.
Wouldn't it be easier to just stick a copy of the barcode somewhere onto the phone's case?

> > Leaders who have delivered successful rewrites often describe the process as one of the greatest accomplishments in their career, but they never describe it as fun.

> This sounds made-up. What leaders? Why would a leader ever describe a rewrite as one of the greatest accomplishments of their career? I've never heard of such a thing. And why shouldn't it be fun? Rewriting something to wipe away all the old horrible tech debt and start over from scratch can be super-fun!

It's also pretty hard to argue against a statement like that; if you point out someone who says otherwise, they can just say "they're not a leader". If anything, it's somewhat circular, since basically they're defining "leaders" as people who agree with them.
I can't believe how many people seem to be excited about this whole WebAssembly Bring Your Own Everything stuff.

Every time there's an article about some kind of "Here's a really simple core to build stuff from scratch" technology people seem to get really excited.

Did you read the whole article? It definitely mentions cost and financial interest in the discussion section.
Company I used to work for did a rewrite for one app with great results. This was waterfall style: shipped it when it was done.

Same company did a refactor for one app with great results. Waterfall style.

Same company did a rewrite that crashed and burned. Shipped the new app side by side the existing one as they gradually added features.

> but as you said it's a solved problem in very few languages.

That's not what I said. What I said was "I'm not saying that every existing language has solved it". TypeScript, C#, Kotlin, Dart are all examples of popular languages that have solved this problem.

Another problem that's currently being solved is the inability to do basic data modeling. In particular, the inability to say "it's A or B". That has been solved in some languages for a long time but is now solved in a number of popular languages too.

There really have been quite a number of advancements in the last 22 years, but sometimes it feels like it's just the bare minimum (ex. being able to do basic data modeling, not having everything be surprise null, etc.). It does seem like it takes a long time for good ideas to propagate into the languages that most people are using. The field is young and it's going to take time for things to mature.

The next big thing is going to be effect/capability systems (tracking which functions do I/O, access the filesystem, etc.). That might take another 22 years to go mainstream, but that doesn't mean progress isn't being made, it just means that we need more new languages that try new things, evaluate new concepts, and establish techniques to be adopted by other languages.

Is this something that people commonly believe? I don't think I've ever heard anyone make a comment about pinball being random. It's a game of skill and I just don't understand how someone who has played pinball would think otherwise.

Cool video though. I like the clear explanation of goals and all the flashy lights.

It's not about how recent the change is, but how "useful" it is to people.
The definition of second most people know is that it is 1/60 of a minute which is 1/60 of a hour which is 1/24 of a day. That's because people can relate to a day but not to the radiation of some atom.

All the stress, risk and sleepless nights which come with running a startup, isn't worth the (potential) 10-10000x pay-off for me, when I already enjoy enough freedoms (autonomy + income + free time) to do what I love outside of my career. So I greatly prefer to piggy back a startups salary and compensation package instead, and hop to the next one a few years later. Having seen the inside of quite a few, I don't feel like I am missing out on starting one myself.
The parent comment doesn't say they think they're solely responsible, but just that it might have helped. Given the positive response from the commissioner who posted the AMA that they already supported it, I don't think it's unreasonable that it might have been a bit of a reminder or motivation to prioritize it a bit more.

Yes, in the US other options include high sensitivity FOBT, FIT, sDNA-FIT and CT colonography.
I only watched a little bit, but pinball machines have been trying to tell you all this for decades. Sometimes the instruction cards go missing, but if they're there, on the left side of the apron, you'll have a summary of the rules / what to do, and the right card should tell you the pricing.

Additionally, many pinball machines will tell you on the displays what to do. I've got a Pin-Bot (1986) and in addition to the instruction card, the attract mode has a detailed description of rules you can see here [1] this video doesn't show it, but while it's telling you what to do, it also flashes the lights near the feature it's describing. Pin-Bot only has alphanumeric displays for the top displays, so it takes a while to get through the whole thing.

I don't think all machines have that detailed instruction, but I don't think it was only Pin-Bot.

But, the rule of shoot at the flashing lights basically works.

You can also get a lot of mileage out of not doing anything. To practice that, if you've got access to a machine on free play or at lost cost, try playing one handed, moving your hand from button to button. You'll miss a ton of shots because your hand is on the wrong button, but a lot of the time, more often than you'd expect, it'll be ok, or at least, the ball will take longer to drain than you'd think it would.

Imo to really succeed as a founder you need either

1. 99.9th percentile technical brilliance

2. 99.9th percentile mixture of relentlessness and charm/natural likability due to charisma, attractiveness, etc

3. 99.9th percentile luck and alignment of the stars of marker forces and technological progress in your favor

Imo if you know you're not a special, magical person by the first two metrics, watching how things change/emerge will give you some edge on the third.
Colonoscopies also have a big advantage in that while the doctors are in there, if they see anything forming that is pre-cancerous they can take it out before it turns into a problem that would show up on a blood test.

I've only ever seen APL used for Advent of Code or similar.

It's probably pretty neat given how concise you can be (or perhaps terse might be a better term), but honestly it seems like the ultimate write-only language given its peculiar choice of symbology. Based on TFA it seems like you'd need to constantly hold CTRL to accomplish even the most trivial of tasks in APL so I question the viability/utility of it.

But in spite of all that it's still a cool programming curio to my mind.
Curious, who are you worried about anonymity from?

If you buy a transit card with a credit card already (how most people do), there goes your anonymity from the transit system.

You can reduce tracking by credit card companies (with is the group I think would be doing a lot of analysis of spending, including when and where you travel (they get when, since it posts immediately, but they might not get where, if the transit billing all originates the same). That reduction in tracking is probably valuable.

I would think facial recognition cameras in transit systems will become commonplace, if they aren’t already. New York is already using other “AI” for fare evasion (saying they don’t currently use facial recognition). Then anonymity is completely out the door.
I did heavy LiveView development for a while. The library problem definitely exists. It's very rare to find what you want already implemented, so you have to rebuild it yourself. It takes a lot of time.

What I ended up doing was loading react components using LiveView hooks and syncing state using pushed events. Saved me a ton of time because libraries were all there, and worked seamlessly alongside my LiveView app.
'It's quite soul-destroying': how we fell out of love with dating apps
Yeah, I thought the discussion of how you couldn't just directly compare people that accepted the colonoscopy invitation with the control group was really interesting, and non-obvious (at least to people like me that don't design studies). It reminds me of the fundamental problem that all surveys have in terms of the bias introduced by being limited to "people who agree to take surveys".

Sure but procedural complications are actually quite rare, as alluded to in this article.

Misses from operator error, suboptimal bowel prep, or inability to complete the examination are more common and where we have the most potential for benefit from novel screening tests.

Even before the full invasion, Israel's (illegal) blockade on Gaza made it so that _on average_ there was 11 hours of blackouts each day. The world has _already_ not been able to know what's happening in Gaza. Not to mention the fact that Israel (again, illegally) destroyed their seaport and airport and built a border completely surrounding Gaza and blocked movement across it
I find it ironic to see (what I think is) the Trump wall in the background. The entire argument for building it was to prevent such crossings. It looks massive.

Hello there -I happened to be a former Within Technologies employee. You are correct that there were two primary programmers-Steve was the back end/compiler guy, and Peter was the front end guy. Was the trade show you're talking about Fall Comdex? That was after CA acquired us...I actually went since I was handling the OS/2 port of Realizer, and they wanted it demo'd at the show. What's your dad's first name, if you don't mind my asking? If it was Ivan he was my boss, and I have some funny Comdex stories involving him.

I still have the glossy and manual for Realizer too.
> This obsession with prolonging life is just a distraction from living it.

Does brushing teeth twice a day also distract you from living?

I think the opposite.
I don’t think this approach would be culturally acceptable where I am from.
You can ask for feedback, but it’s never guaranteed that you’ll get it. If you’re too pushy, it has the potential to backfire. People where I’m from don’t like pushy people, they do not interpret pushiness as an indication of a healthy level of confidence but rather it is seen as being rude, or impatient and potentially also aggressive or arrogant.
Additionally, where I am from, feedback is likely to be generic anyway because people here avoid confrontation. People are excessively nice to people in face to face interactions, and then can be highly critical about the concerned person behind their back so to speak.
Feedback that is given is often generic in nature like “there were more experienced candidates”, or my personal favourite “you’re too over qualified and we were concerned you would get bored with the role” - or some variant of that.

With that said, I think it’s important to recognise that what might be good career advice for some will be terrible advice for others. There is actually places you can go to get coaching on job seeking that will give relevant advice to the local culture, and also the industry you’re seeking work. I actually rate those kinds of services quite highly and think it’s money well spent in terms of personal & professional development.
This is a large, randomized control trial, so obviously you should value this significantly higher than whatever doctors are doing to themselves. (history has more than a few examples of doctors practicing medicine that didn't make a whole lot of sense).

At what point does an open border sorta make the government illegitimate? The state is just ignoring its own laws on this issue for one reason or another.
I wonder what industries these guys crossing are going to go into. I have a feeling its going to be tech. Get ready for software companies paying cash to people under the table to do their work like construction companies.

> After the second time Arshdeep Singh, a supporter of a Sikh political party in Punjab, was threatened by men he believed were affiliated with India’s ruling Bharatiya Janata Party, his father made arrangements for him to leave the country.

This makes zero sense. It has either been spun by the WSJ or the individual in question.

The BJP has almost no political clout in Punjab. It currently holds only 2 seats out of 117 in the legislative assembly. When it was in government, it was as a minor partner in an alliance with the SAD, an unambiguously Sikh party.

The idea that thugs affiliated with the BJP are threatening people in Punjab and making them flee the country is patently absurd.

I made this an intentional part of the game's design: once you've been free-falling for a couple seconds, your bike switches into Glider Mode, where you can shift gravity while you're falling by steering.

If only Semmelweis wasn’t such a strange chap, we’d have been much more further forward now.
> And that measurement they got was ultimately off, which is why the meter became (until its later redefinition),

> By contrast, the "foot", which is literally named after the device used to approximate it. The median human being has two of these.

It seems odd to criticize the metre for a lack of accuracy against historical basis when the modern definition is accurate to within 0.02% of its historical basis, and yet praise a unit that, if measured by its historical basis, would be off on its mean by around 20% and vary by 40-50% amongst the population.
What makes you think it is the Trump wall? Various incarnations of border wall have existed for a hundred years [1]

US Border Partol will also cut down the concertina wire put down by Texas to make it easier for illegals to come in. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKeiba3EJq4

Then there is the matter of the doors in the border wall being welded open by US Border Patrol. https://nypost.com/2023/08/22/border-patrol-admits-its-respo...

If you can't find that one you can use this one instead which is big enough for semi trucks to drive through https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lKm0ws_iPg

There are several more crossings I know of where illegals can walk around the end of the existing wall and line up to be apprehended then released to NGOs. They line up and wait in a line to be taken by US Border Patrol buses. Its not just 1 or 2 places. There are MANY such breaks in the fence where US Border Patrol collects illegals and releases them to the US after capturing some biometric information.

All screening tests do. In general, cancer screening employs highly sensitive tests which are supposed to react to anything that even remotely looks like cancer. Negative results are relatively trustworthy while positive results justify further testing with more specific tests which may be more risky, more expensive or both. Colonoscopy is an example of a test that is both expensive and risky.
But wouldn't we just interpret that "break" as more rules for us to learn and study and build world models around? Why would we think "the simulation has broken" and not "physics is weird huh? Especially in edge cases like absurdly high energies or absurdly tiny scales."

(I don't think the universe is a simulation, to be clear.)

When were you told to drive gently after starting the engine? That was a legitimate issue with early turbos, which would break if you tried to spin them up cold, and that was eventually solved in order to put a turbo in every car nowadays. Furthermore, BMWs had been turning engine off when stopped for the past 20 years or so. As for the oil pump, I am pretty sure it's driven off the engine itself so you don't need to wait till it spins up.

Since the question of which hardware is better, usually same performance at double the watts makes a cpu worse.

Also you are assuming infinite power availability. If you are off the grid and have power from solar or wind, then lower wattage might be preferable.
