If ES plus is the type of calculator you want, fx-991EX classwiz is a more capable version in every way except maybe the price. If you don't want a graphing calculator, programming and CAS on it, the fx-991EX is one of the best, if not the best scientific calculator out there (haven't seen many, though).

Includes beautiful UI (roots, exponents and fractions are displayed like we write them, so more is visible, and the navigation is easier), spreadsheets, printing out values of a real function, solving any real equation for X (one solution at a time, gotta give it different starting Xs for optimization, though), some very basic probability (Gauss) statistics (e.g. linear regression), up to 4x4 matrices, finding derivative in a point, sum over a range, integral over an interval, arithmetic with complex numbers etc.

It doesn't render graphs, but, it renders a qr code that a phone can scan and then the phone shows the graph, so some graphing is there for studying, but not an exam.
As awkward as Gates behavior was in the monopoly video, I actually kind of liked it as it seemed genuine like someone who was uncomfortable and reacting and thinking.

When I watched it years ago it felt like something I would do were I in a situation. Or better I suppose as I would likely sweat profusely, than faint.

I thought that despite Microsoft and Gates lawyers and coaching and training, Gates’ self showed through.

Said executive order was not linked to in the document.
Seems the website has been updated in the last hour or so, probably as a result of the executive order announced this morning:

You’ve obviously never used an HP 48GX. An RPN graphing calculator, that actually had a real usable programming language onboard, and included communications (serial and IR) and expandability, in 1993? And it could function as a TV remote to boot?

I’d still use mine today if I hadn’t accidentally smashed the screen. I bought a 49G+ as a replacement to use in college, but it just… wasn’t as good. Despite theoretically being much more powerful and having more features, it felt like plasticky garbage and was never really a joy to use the same way the 48 was.

It's not sociopathy, it's more like 'wtf should I do'.

I passed a weird certification in highschool to learn how to deal with injuries and dangerous situations (car crash, someone passing out in public) and so far it helped twice. Each time the other helpers had the same (or similar) training I did.

However when I met two people fighting each other in public, violently (blood and teeth), I was under a severe bystander effect I thought I wouldn't have (because I had good reactions to dangerous situations in the past).

For me at least, this effect is more about how prepared you are, a sort of default state, not something bad.

The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy[1], while restricted in scope, takes the approach of having experts write the articles that are then revised and evolve with time. So a different approach is possible, but I think it would be hard for an encyclopedia with the breadth of wikipedia to do it. Maybe there is space for more specialised encyclopedias that take the approach of articles having authors and revisions instead of wikis. But all in all, I think both approaches compliment eachother.

The lesson here is that you need to bite the bullet and get top of the line at least once

Because then you always have some capital within the hardware to upgrade again without breaking the bank

But if you upgrade mid life cycle or even worse: to a mid range card that’s already mid life cycle, then you’re always getting less life span and having to do full upgrades again
I have had many Apple devices since the 2nd gen iPod, and they have all lasted a very long time compared to my other devices. All my laptops back to my 15” PowerBook is still working. They have fixed a faulty GPU on a 4 year old laptop for free, even though I had opened the laptop and changed thermal paste. (Known manufacturing issue with that GPU, but still impressive)

They have made mistakes. Like the battery in my current 2015 MBP is too hard to replace. And I avoided upgrading for a long time due to the known issues with the keyboards. But it seems like they generally correct when making mistakes like that.

I do agree that SSDs shouldn’t be soldered on though. Hopefully it’s one of the mistakes they’ll eventually fix. I kind of understand the motivation.. you can make it impossible to effectively steal a device, or access its contents. The device becomes very simple and robust in some ways. But they could come up with a good compromise.

Like, sure, keep the concept of not having an SSD controller on the drive, and firmware on the SSD. But sell replacement SSDs with the firmware and a recover OS preloaded. One that lets you provision the new drive with the SOC through your iCloud account. Depending on the on-chip storage and whether it’s fuse/EPROM-based or flash, the number of possible drive replacements might be limited. But that’s an OK compromise.

Yes, it's perhaps not reasonable to compare pledge/unveil and something like SELinux. It really is different attack vectors the tools are defending against or mitigating.

Do you have any arguments for this opinion or is it an expression of a personal moral sentiment?

My argument why ad blocking is morally permissible is that it's a matter of the end users personal freedom if and how they display content from remote servers. They should be allowed to use a hex editor, plaintext, braille, TTS, a browser with or without ad ons, etc., and must be allowed to modify the content for their display purposes as they wish as long as they don't redistribute it. That's even a central idea of the HTML specification. There are also plenty of analogies to similar freedoms, for example if I buy a magazine (or get it for free) I can tear out ad pages and use them to fire my stove.

Redistribution is another matter and concerns copyright, but I just can't see any reason why the maker of a web page ought to have a right (or even feel entitled) to control my machine and how the data they voluntarily send to my machine is displayed on it. It's not as if anyone forces them to send the data in the first place.
Also scrapie, which is the sheep version of mad cow disease.

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

> In Iceland in 1978, a program was implemented to eradicate scrapie, and affected flocks were culled, premises were disinfected, and sheep houses were burnt; after two to three years, the premises were restocked with lambs from scrapie-free areas. Between 1978 and 2004, scrapie recurred on 33 farms. Nine recurrences occurred 14–21 years after culling as a result of persistent environmental contamination with PrPSc.

A human variant transmissible through cannibalism is Kuru (against which the locals have developed some resistance):

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuru_(disease)

> In 2009, researchers at the Medical Research Council discovered a naturally occurring variant of a prion protein in a population from Papua New Guinea that confers strong resistance to kuru. [...] G127 polymorphism is the result of a missense mutation, and is highly geographically restricted to regions where the kuru epidemic was the most widespread. Researchers believe that the PrnP variant occurred very recently, estimating that the most recent common ancestor lived 10 generations ago.
Silicone, with the e on the end, is one of the main polymers.
The book starts out writing vectors as row vectors (1 x n matrices), then later introduces the matrix of a vector as a column vector.

Just represent vectors as column vectors from the start, define R^n as R^n,1 (in the notation of the book) and then there's no confusion and you get matrix multiplication of column vectors as students learned in high school: M.x where M is an m x n matrix and x is an n x 1 column vector, with product an m x 1 column vector. Stick to this all the way through a first linear algebra textbook and undergrad tears can be avoided.
e.g. example 3.32 in the text: T(1,0) = (1,2,7). Just write these as column vectors and the matrix multiplication is easier to visualize. (Also, T acting on a real number was written T(x) with brackets so T acting on a vector should really be written T((1,0)). Inconsistencies in notation like this lead to pain.)

Then, for example, when you want to show that the rows of a matrix are independent, you can use a row vector to write succinctly x.M = 0 => x = 0 where x is now a row vector. And it's clear we're doing something other than transforming space vectors here as we've used column vectors for vectors representing points in space.

For undergrad textbooks you want to decide on a convention, one that matches what was done in high school preferably, and stick to it.

Watching a loading spinner yesterday for ages on my X-Box and my son starting rage-clicking I realised giving users some feedback on their clicks, even when nonsensical might be a good UI pattern. Similar to users clicking buttons in an elevator for doors to close faster, even though they don't do anything.

Here the users is leveled up as soon as the "worm" catches its own tail.

In-Band passthru is a nightmare. Even if your NIC is good, it can cause all sorts of problems. It's okayish if it's done via an Ethernet bridge, but that seems to be the exception. On the ASRock Rack boards I have recently sourced you suddenly get a new PCIe root bridge, and (10G) NIC throughput goes down the drain.
I have an adult child and they don’t watch 4k feeds. They ignore the tv and large screens and just sit in a chair or lie on a bed with their phone. Even with friends they’ll either separately use phones or sit next to each other and look at a single screen.

I don’t think that concern for injustice is something universal or even necessarily widespread among autistic people. That is, I believe that there are plenty of autistic people who do not give a fuck, eschew social causes completely, feel misanthropic, etc. Rather, I think that the examples you encountered represent that segment of autistic people who do care, and due to the difficulty that autistic people have with understanding social roles and social boundaries, they felt a need to act and did so, when normies might not have felt a need or would have held back.

No, you can’t.
Fusion bomb is technologically hard problem even today. Fission is simple but required a of the material which can only be produced by technologically hard devices. This gates it for now. But even today we can see that countries wishing to destabilize neighbors can simply gift complete assembly to their allies. Like russia did with North Korea, and is now probably doing with Iran. So ownership of the tech by large political entities doesn't matter if one of such entities decides to defect and abandon common rules.

So, yes, there won't be some independent spacer terror cell. But what if one of the space faring countries will decide to simply sponsor some Hamas 2.0 to attack their opponents? Considering that this will be a new age of conquest possibly, where nothing in the Solar System is yet owned by anyone and there will be a lot of takers. Like a simplest question - who's are Luna and Mars? :)

Next issue is that chemical rockets are much simpler and cheaper, also they are not gated by any tech or material. Sure, there are important secrets around nozzles and stuff, but I suppose a simple crude rocket will work just fine. So assuming we are at the level when humans can travel to the asteroids to mine them (also a big if, due to it being economically unfeasible) they can setup such a kamikaze rocket. Attack will be from outside of the ecliptic plane, so likely undetected. Attack can be scaled to more than one rock, so that every single point of failure, every dome etc must have dozens of anti-spacecraft level defense rockets (nukes most likely). It is not feasible.

Of course all of this is about far far future, we can't predict what will happen.

One of the notable things from "Deschooling" is his solution. Illich describes was could be thought of as Meetups using the internet. Hobbyist experts with common interests that can serve as teachers and demonstrators of skills.

One of the big insights is that today you have teachers who are certified in teaching and experts in a particular thing. The two are very rarely present in the same person.

> In deschooled society professionals could no longer claim the trust of their clients on the basis of their curricular pedigree, or ensure their standing by simply referring their clients to other professionals who approved of their schooling. Instead of placing trust in professionals, it should be possible, at any time, for any potential client to consult with other experienced clients of a professional about their satisfaction with him by means of another peer network easily set up by computer, or by a number of other means. Such networks could be seen as public utilities which permitted students to choose their teachers or patients their healers.

> There's little sense in ignoring the whole basic mode of operation, physics, chemistry and biology of the brain in order to analogise it to another system without any of those properties.

Sure there is. People had a feel for it back in "clockworks" times, nowadays we have a much better grasp because of progress of physics and math, particularly CS - mode of operation is an implementation detail. Whatever the mode, once you understand the behavior enough to model it in computational terms, you can implement it in anything you like - gears and levers, pistons, water flowing between buckets, electrons in silicon, photons going through lenses, photons diffusing through metamaterials, sound waves diffusing through metamaterials - and yes, also via a person locked in a room full of books telling them what to draw in response to a drawing they receive, and also via a billion kids following a game to the letter, via corporate bureaucracy, via board game rules, etc.

Substrate. Does. Not. Matter.

The only thing limiting your choice here is practical one. Humanity is getting a good mileage out of electrons in silicon, so that's the way to go for now. Gears would work too, they're just too annoying to handle at scale.

Of course, today we don't have a full understanding of biological substrate - we can't model it fully in terms of computation, because it's a piece of spontaneously evolved nanotech and we barely begun being able to observe things at those scales. We have a lot of studying in front of us - but this is about learning how the gooey stuff ticks, what does it compute and how. But it's not about some new dimension of computation.

tldr: they squat

And an important paragraph: “Hadza men and women spent nearly 10 hours every day resting, almost identical to the numbers for people in the US, Netherlands and Australia. The number of breaks was similar across populations as well. Hadza adults switched from resting to active postures like standing or walking roughly 50 times per day, on par with data from Europeans. Still, Hadza blood profiles and blood pressures showed they were remarkably healthy, with low levels of triglycerides and other markers of heart disease. The Hadza were much healthier than their desk-bound counterparts in industrialised countries, but not because they rested less or got up to stretch their legs more often.”
