I have to disagree. Any 'model' that implies that water has some resonant frequency that microwaves are specifically designed for is misleading to the point of uselessness.

If microwave ovens were tuned perfectly for water, then the water near the surface of foods would absorb most of the oven's energy, and not let the center of the food warm up as efficiently... essentially causing the microwave oven to heat food more like a regular oven.

AFAIK, the frequency chosen for use by microwave ovens is a balance between

* A desire for the EM energy to penetrate deeper into the food (per my 2nd paragraph above)

* A desire for the EM energy to not interfere with licensed communications bands, in the event that the oven is "leaky".

Finally: it's not very hard to explain the concept of a dipole moment, and why molecules that have one will twist in the presence of EM radiation. In fact, if you do explain this, quite often the student will come to realize that this is also true of light, which is why (A) a vintage Easy Bake Oven toy could bake a brownie with just an incandescent lightbulb, and (B) will serve to demystify microwaves as being just sub-infrared light.
It was significantly worse than that.

There were 2 failures over a total of 135 flights, with 14 fatalities. So that's about 103 fatalities per 1000 flights.

How many zfs systems you think are running right now, all hours combined compared to linux ext filesystems ?
All back now.
Many PNG compressors allow you to specify the zlib compression level, where 0 = no compression. This will effectively give you an uncompressed image, perhaps with some format overhead.

Your math is a bit off - a 1024x1024 at 32bpp would be 4MB, ignoring overhead.

I've actually done something like this in the past - create PNGs with 0 compression, then compress it with something stronger than Deflate (like LZMA). Because the PNG filtering is still applied, this allows greater compression relative to PNG by itself (or a BMP compressed with LZMA).
I don't see how you can blame TikTok or conclude it's sad without knowing the historical trend. Are the numbers better or worse than 20 years ago?
What makes discussion of this difficult is that whenever someone neutrally discusses this, someone invariably jumps in, angry, with an uncharitable whatabout. Please ignore it when it happens.

When you dig into the history of the region, as an interesting topic in its own right, without reference to any current conflict, without motivation to prove any particular side right or wrong, just letting history tell its own story, some patterns emerge. I'll give you the Cliff Notes the way it seems to me, a non-Jew American, culturally leftists. If I'm wrong I'll hear a calm, considered, good-faith-well-sourced-not-weird fact I may not be aware of.

To answer your question, when Israel started, the new state invited its Arab neighbors to participate and this invitation was sincere. This fact is elided quite a lot, but it's true and I can show you receipts. This directly relates to your point. As you might imagine, Zionist Jews were really not interested in fighting. Many Arabs agreed to participate in the new state, stayed, were peaceful and their descendents are full Israeli citizens today. There was no intention for an "ethno-state" by point 2 of your definition at this time, but there was a Zionist desire to defend themselves. The borders of the new democratic state did demographically put Jews in charge, but there wasn't a desire to expel Arabs. I know, hard to fathom, but it's true.

Nevertheless, Arabs were expelled. From the Zionist perspective, they weren't expelled because they were Arabs, but because they participated in a genocidal war with the stated intention to expell and kill Jews.

Where did that intention come from? Surely the Zionists did something to deserve that hate? Stole land?

After really looking at it,
from my Western, American perspective, they did no more than Jews did when they immigrated to my own country: start businesses, purchase land, prosper to the envy of some of their neighbors. If you can demonstrate that Zionists literally stole land, lmk. However, instead of emigrating to the Lower East Side, which was rough but still more or less had the rule of law, Zionists immigrated to a lawless backwater of the dying Ottoman Empire where they were were the target of explicitly genocidal attacks by Muslim Arabs. These attacks spilled over to historically Jewish villages, such as Hebron.

So, when I hear "Zionists stole land" I hear "Micks stole our jobs" and not "Boers violently displaced native tribes from fertile farmland". It's a better analogy for what actually happened.

Today, Israel controls lands, the West Bank and Gaza, populated by the descendents of the people who tried to ethnically cleanse them on first go. No one else wants that land and its people. Not Egypt, not Jordan, not Lebanon. Now it's on Israel to try to deal with this.
You need to read the message again, they said nothing like that.
The tl;dr is multicollinearity is a big problem for interpreting models like this. Aka you have variables in the model that are highly correlated and because of this the model does not necessarily assign weights to the variables in a way that means anything. Eg: In the article they show "Age: 34 or Older" = -.11 and also that "Married" = -.49. Being over 34 and married is -.60. But as far as we know the model doesn't account for the fact that people older than 34 are more likely to be married in the first place. Perhaps the model would have worked just as well if "Age: 34 or Older" = -.30 and also that "Married" = -.30 (still -.60). And so on with every possible combination of attributes (they are all correlated).

This isn't the end of the story. In situations where interpretability really matters or you have the time/resources, it's possible to mostly prevent this by building the model slowly and diagnosing multicollinearity issues as they arise. Perhaps you purposefully leave out variables because you see they are already highly correlated with existing ones and leave the model weights unstable. It requires exhaustive analysis and necessarily involves subjectivity, though. The researchers here could have done something like this, it's certainly done in industry for the aforementioned financial regulatory environments.

Non-linear models like trees don't have multicollinearity problems because they implicitly model interactions between variables with the branching behavior. Instead the problem is interpretation, it's hard to sum up all those branches in a way that is intuitive and meaningful.

Yeah, all the threads full of folks bashing on ZFS because their trusty ext won’t corrupt data should be eating crow right about now, but I’m sure they’ll hop in and explain why this bug is different.

This is the pixel art tutorials I've been looking for for years! Thanks for your comment!
The article doesn't actually explain anything about L4S other than "make latency go lower". Here's the actual RFC: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9330.html

This is the first time I've heard of it, but it looks pretty cool. From what I can tell skimming through the RFC, it's a new congestion control standard that aims to minimise queuing latency. It co-exists with existing AQM technology, and is different in that it actively signals to other nodes about the state of its own queues.

> Below, we outline the three main components to the L4S architecture: 1) the Scalable congestion control on the sending host; 2) the AQM at the network bottleneck; and 3) the protocol between them.

> But first, the main point to grasp is that low latency is not provided by the network; low latency results from the careful behaviour of the Scalable congestion controllers used by L4S senders. The network does have a role, primarily to isolate the low latency of the carefully behaving L4S traffic from the higher queuing delay needed by traffic with preexisting Classic behaviour. The network also alters the way it signals queue growth to the transport. It uses the Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) protocol, but it signals the very start of queue growth immediately, without the smoothing delay typical of Classic AQMs. Because ECN support is essential for L4S, senders use the ECN field as the protocol that allows the network to identify which packets are L4S and which are Classic.

> What L4S Adds to Existing Approaches: ... Diffserv ... State-of-the-art AQMs ... Per-flow queuing or marking ... Alternative Back-off ECN (ABE) ... Bottleneck Bandwidth and Round-trip propagation time (BBR)

My question, from a background with almost no networking, is this: there is a fundamental tradeoff between latency and throughput; what exactly is the tradeoff they're trying to make here? I understand the desire to move into lower latency, but how does this effect their utilisation?

Because "chat" is pretty much meaningless as a term. The only common thread between chat apps is "bidirectional data transfer between at least two devices." SMS and Discord are both chat but have wildly different completely incompatible semantics, iMessage embeds full iOS apps and a payment network into the chat.

I can't see any world where chat gets standardized that doesn't involve throwing out everything except the most basic sms-style semantics which is basically what RCS is.
I enjoyed this article. A couple of points, if the interactive/handson way is the future, how do we solve the no-TA problem if that's a prerequisite? It's not really feasible to produce them for every class. Will it be chatbots?

This isn't true in the high-end coffee community. No one uses ceramic burrs, and they are generally considered to produce worse coffee than other burrs.
It doesn’t seem like you’ve considered that people do a better job discerning sarcasm in person than via the written word. In person, you can judge tone of voice and facial expressions. I once heaped praise on someone by email, and they became really upset, because they thought the email was dripping with sarcasm.

Including the “/s” helps to ensure that one is understood. To me, that seems more important than whatever it is you think has been lost.

> I think you do see diminishing returns going above $1000 for burr grinders.

This is absolutely correct: the best "value" is a $200-300 hand grinder. Anything more than that you're adding quality of life (mostly), and sometimes even taking away from quality of coffee while increasing price.

Of course, hand grinders are generally pretty annoying to use for all your coffee needs. They are great but it's also great to use something electric.

You may want to look at my PNG/DEFLATE implementation:

> 5nm dies are the most expensive part of the whole solution, meaning there is also a 65% pricing advantage (though some of this advantage is offset by more complex packaging and other cheaper dies that go into mi300x as well as more HBM chips).

That doesn't say anything about the fraction of the cost on the finished product though? Those numbers just say it could be something like 2% vs 6% of the cost of the card.
The core of your argument is that it's the worker deciding this, and that they don't want to fix issues over the weekend.

That's not true.

It's the business deciding that they don't want to ship bugs on Fridays and then take the hit for customers having a bad experience over the weekend if the issue can't be resolved. What if you let someone deploy on a Fri and then they go skiing for the weekend? Sure, someone else can step in, but maybe it takes them an extra 2-3 hours to solve the problem. That might cost you a renewal.

Emergent can be the first step; something emerges. Then you have to explain why/how. Emergent alone is never enough but it’s the first step. Consciousness is emergent until we explain how it comes to be and then it’s just an understood process.
That makes sense though, are the chips themselves the bottleneck in production?
It's not an extfs bug, it's a "stable kernel" process bug. Linux master branch/mainline was never affected by this bug. Someone cherry-picked a wrong patch into stable without realizing the consequences, and it was caught too late.

Stable process is cherry pincking thousands to tens of thousands of patches from the current master kernel branch into years old kernel branches, spraying tens of thousands of emails at original patch authors, hoping (With some limited testing on top) that the resulting frankenkernels will still work and all these patches will have satisfied dependencies applied, too.

I don't trust this process very much, and just run the latest stable branch for the latest kernel release, only. Staying with older stable release branch for too long seems too risky, unless you're some bigcorp that can afford the testing required, or you're running some highly mainstream setup that is probably covered by tests done by the stable team, and testing teams they cooperate with.
Accessibility and hackability are very closely related, in multiple ways.

Unemployment statistics take into account all jobs. This productivity increase (really only 5.2% in a quarter) only takes into account business workers. Also unemployment is basically worthless if you have a high-paying job, it's literally better to go work for Walmart than collect unemployment while looking for another white-collar job at the moment. And unemmployment numbers only take into account people collecting unemployment. So no, I don't think the unemployment numbers relevant.

Let us both take a calming breath and step back.

I think the salient point is that we both care for Palestinian children. We both differ on what to do about it.

From my perspective, they live under a brutal, genocidal dictatorship who will fling them into the maw of war to tactically garner sympathy. This tactic is not successful for me, because I view it as emotional manipulation. It just makes me angrier at them.

I happen to be well-disposed towards Israel and its people. When Israel says they are sincerely trying not to kill children but that Hamas keeps putting them in harm's way, I will generally believe it until I have a good reason not to believe it.

This seems to contrast to how many people view the statements of Israel, including very powerful people in, eg, the BBC, HRW, WHO, UN, Amnesty International, Harvard, Justin Trudeau, etc. Many people seem to view every statement of Israel with suspicion. I don't really get it, but here we are.

I don't know why anyone is reluctant to believe in your assessment.

Unions in Europe are not on the height of their strength but still a force to be reckoned with. If Musk thinks he can handle them the same way he does in the U.S. he is in for a rude awakening. There are many companies in Europe who have built their success in cooperation with the labor movement, not on antagonism and Musk would be well advised to take a hint.
