> Wouldn't it be cleaner, easier and simpler to keep those separate and add them later as "modules"?

That is exactly what Linux does. Part of building a Linux distribution is determining which modules to ship by default to your users. To the best of my knowledge, the overwhelming majority of drivers are not installed by default, and the average user will never need them.

Absolutely not. Most routers on the internet are not doing connection tracking.

But that's not my point - most cases where things /are/ keeping state need to worry about keeping state on UDP-oriented protocols as well.
This was my worry as soon as I saw "free" and figured they likely didn't mean free as in freedom.

The CDC runs numbers on this for teachers the rate is about 7 per 100,000 every year this is one of the lowest rates out there. Similarly this rate translates from the 500,000 teachers to a rate of 4 per 100,000 which is statistically much lower than the USA and lower than the rates of suicides in the country as a whole. The article also likes to claim that this is caused directly by this specific policy which is also not true.

The suicide rate in South Korea is primarily focused on the elderly population that was abandoned while the nation grew, it's primarily focused on the financial collapse that occurred in the 90s when the nation's stock exchange was targeted by other financial markets in order to generate wealth a similar event has occurred in other Asian countries which forced several million people into poverty.

As for the other issues hyper competition is intense in most Asian countries, these issues are not unique to South Korea. In fact they are significantly worse in China and India. There is no culture problem but a systemic issue of a lack of jobs and opportunities and the overproduction of elites or highly educated individuals.
Are all the students and parents a problem? Could there be a way to get non-disruptive students and their parents to fight against the disruptive ones? The teachers might not be able to do much because their job is on the line, but if enough parents who are equal customers get upset that their kids aren't getting the education they are paying for it seems like they could force the minority of disruptive students to fall in line.
I'm curious how you think about Django's CMS capabilities compared to less opinionated languages and frameworks. Do you think the fact that Django is so opinionated is necessary for Django to be as good as it is? If Django was built more like FastAPI could something like Django Admin still work? Is Django Admin special because of the execution, or because of the capabilities that the design of Django enables it to have?

Is this an attempt at some anti-theft tech?

Ie. prevent phones that have been stolen, either from the supply chain, or from end consumers, from being used.

If so - apple and most other manufacturers do the same. But they normally do so only very soon after the theft.
There's upsides and downsides to both approaches. I think that Linux kernel maintainers continue this approach because this forces driver maintainers to meet a minimum level of effort to get their work merged.

Which foundational model did you finetune with few images? just curious. I personally believe language interface or language conditioning is not very relevant or even harmful for many downstream CV applications. In your case, you don't need to ask whether the metal is bent in language interface, or there could be hundred ways you could ask these questions and outputs would be slightly different in each one. That's an unwanted instability, I feel conditioning inputs that were based on few examples would be much more relevant. i.e. Instead of conditioning with text embeddings, why not condition with embeddings of these 3 images and their labels?

One plant I've researched for my puppy is Morning Glory. First, one needs to clarify leaves? flowers? seeds? And there are many varieties of vine called "Morning Glory", both annual and perennial.

Those of us of a certain age learned in high school to recite the specific varieties of annual morning glories whose seeds contained lysergic acid amide, offering the shortest path to synthesizing lysergic acid diethylamide, aka LSD. I recall Heavenly Blue and Pearly Gates. Other varieties are of less interest.

(I was banned from my high school chem lab, but not for LSD. A friend's brother researched short-acting hallucinogens too obscure to make illegal, and picked a relatively safe synthesis for us. He forgot to mention it would coat the lab in a white precipitate.)

That would be the morning glory described in the sketchy entry here. Yes, err on the side of caution, if convenient. If one has spent twenty years cultivating a shade wall of perennial morning glory, and the puppy chews the occasional leaf without swallowing, there's no cause to rip it all out.

There's a difference between what I would want to do and what I should do. Would I want to fight back against my oppressors? Obviously. But here's the reality, Israel is not going anywhere. The current borders are not going anywhere. Objectively, the Palestinians best option is doing everything they can to reach a peace agreement that kicks all the settlers out of the west bank and gives them actual sovereignty. It's not easy to look past the wrongs they've experienced, but it is clearly what's best for them and especially their children. Continuing to fight will eventually lead to an actual genocide or trail of tears situation when Israel decides they've had enough of living in fear of terrorism, international relations be damned.
fwiw, come to think of it, deaths is a false god metric. That is, accidents can increase but medical procedures can have improved to prevent deaths.

Dependant languages let you express almost anything in the type system. "The array I receive will contain only valid Sudoku solutions", you can express that and the compiler can confirm it's true at compile time. This is very powerful but requires writing proofs to help the compiler.

I wonder if LLMs could help here? It's a burden to write the proofs, but if LLMs become good enough and flexible enough, the dependant type system might serve as a formal layer on top of a LLM, while the LLM fills in the proofs for us.

A dependant type system could serve as the "world" an AI lives and grows in. Currently LLMs mimic our words without a reality to push back. LLMs can't be wrong, they try to mimic, but they have no hard limitations, whatever word they spit out has only soft rewards or punishments. A type system could be the reality an AI lives and learns in, with a hard ground it can fall on, hard walls it cannot pass, and other hard limitations it can explore in.
God I wish I did anything interesting enough to merit that level of concern.

If you send a student somewhere outside of the classroom, the parents can argue that 1) you deprived him/her of educational opportunities; 2) you mentally abused him/her by sending her alone into the dark, scary corridor; and 3) you damaged his/her self-esteem by doing this in front of all the other students. If the parents are in a particularly vindictive mood, they can probably get a psychiatrist to back up their bullshit, too.

None of these charges are likely to stick under the revised legal framework, but the mere threat of a lawsuit can be tremendously burdensome to a young teacher just out of college. The teacher who committed suicide in Gangnam last summer was only 23 years old.

“Modern cultivation methods, mechanization, chemical fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides” don’t require the use of state farms. Evidence: farms in other rich countries of the time such as Western Germany and the USA.
As another comment explains - the vast majority of drivers are not compiled as part of a standard Linux distribution.

If you're asking why so many drivers are included in Linux's mainline repository and not maintained off-tree - the major advantage of being upstreamed is that changes to the kernel have to take your driver into account as well. e.g. anyone who changes any APIs will have to update your driver as well.

Moreover, being upstreamed certifies that your driver has gone through a non-trivial review process to be merged into the mainline and is an indication of quality/stability.
Yeah, but they added sockets at some point. It was pretty handy for minimal clients for flooding/desyncs. Not that I was doing any of that (sorry undernet).
That link centers the map on Prince Ave in Athens-Clarke County. Look that road up, it's a 4 lane road. I would never bike on that road, of course it's dangerous. If you avoid roads like that, you avoid most of the risk. It's common sense but a substantial portion of adult male cyclists obstinately refuse to apply such common sense because they'd rather die as some sort of martyr for their right of way than stay alive.

In fact most of the roads on the map you just linked to are marked as green. If I zoomed out and the first red road I saw was Broad Street. That is four lane road as well. No surprise. Multi-lane roads are very dangerous for cyclists and pedestrians, so you should tell your children to avoid them. That's what I've always done, so I have much less to worry about than the crudest population-level statistics would suggest.

Given the flexibility and depth of the django admin, 5 good developers working on it for 1 year sounds about right.

200k/year might sound like a lot but then in a real business there are various overhead costs as well.

I'd say $1m is probably on the lower side of the estimate. Factoring in project delays and misc Murphy law things, wouldn't be surprised if a mediocre team underdelivers with a crappy immitation of the django admin interface after blowing through a couple mil.

Yes, but I think it's important to separate Benjamin Netnyahu as he went to the extreme during a period of time where we knew the Hamas is "serious". Previously Israel supported the Muslim Brotherhood, that was dumb. But they wanted Jihad "in the future". Also the PLO was still a terrorist organization back then.

Netnyahu promoted the Hamas when the PLO abandoned terrorism and when the Hamas was known for extremely violent mass murder (exploding busses etc.). He's a special kind of idiot a*hole.

The main thesis of the article is that famine due to crop failure (as opposed to famine due to war) has largely been eliminated by two modern technologies: industrial agricultural methods (synthetic fertilizer, pesticides, herbicides, equipment) and global trade (air and ship transport managed by markets).

This generally appears true - some time ago I tried to discover if total land area under agricultural production had increased since before the Norman Borlaug era and the answer seems to be no - as the author notes, per-acre productivity improvement accounts for the increase in food production.

The opposing argument is that this approach is not sustainable in the long run due to soil degradation and agricultural pollution of waterways, high energy costs of the industrial approach, dependence on fossil fuels (and threats of flood and drought related to global warming), and that eventually the system will crash leading to a new round of famines.

For the techno-optimists (e.g. myself) there is a way out - flip the industrial agriculture system off fossil fuels and onto renewable energy, i.e. electric equipment powered by sunlight and wind, and optimize use of inputs (fertilizer etc.) via adoption of machine learning and robotics (i.e each growing plant gets individual attention with this model). Of course this only works if we also stabilize the global human population and eliminate fossil fuels from the energy mix to avoid increasing drought/flood risk. Moving to a diet of no more than 5% or so animal products also makes sense as that means more primary production (direct photosynthesis) goes to humans instead of livestock, thereby reducing the pressure on agricultural land.

As Monbiot implies, anyone claiming a return to pre-industrial subsistence agriculture is a good idea is either a shameless marketer or a lunatic who has never tried to grow their own food.
