I was surprised how fast this article dismissed carbon steel. Carbon steel is my default pan. It’s lighter than cast iron and heats up faster. It’s also not really any heavier than stainless.
Plus most the time I just need to gently wipe them clean and then a light coat of oil before I hang them up.

Most my by pans are De Buyer carbon steel. I do have some stainless steel pots and pans for when I need them. A couple cast iron pieces mostly use my Dutch oven.

whats a real world use case for this? Been doing big enterprise java for a decade and never ran into a scenario where I would need this. Don't get me wrong, I think theres most certainly value for this, but usually doing plain ole Spring Boot or the dreaded Adobe Experience manager, things just "work". So just honestly curious what problem this would help me solve? Im guessing if you develop a platform you need performance and need to find weak points in your platform? Or is this for building out tools like Dynatrace / New Relic.
> For most people it's their 3rd or 4th or 5th language, and they were always so full of joy and happiness than I was trying my best.

I think this is currently pretty typical in any language.

In my experience, Non-native speakers are much more resilient to strong accents and broken grammar. Probably because they passed themselves by this step.

I worked in a research laboratory with >100 nationalities: It was extremely common to be at a table with a Greek, a Spanish and a Chinese perfectly understanding each other in some "Globish English" while the British or Australian next chair were crying in tears.
True viral growth is exponential: each of your users gets you N>1 additional users, and so the growth of your userbase is proportional to your current scale.

Superlinear but subexponential growth can still be pretty impressive, though, especially if it's fast (who cares about 0.1% weekly growth?)

What state are you from? January 6 didn’t register for me at all, and I grew up in the area and work in DC. I grew up in Virginia, with a very Jefferson heavy curriculum. “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants,” and whatnot. I wonder if that has something to do with it.
What? I was replying to your claim "The core problem people have with TikTok", which is about TT, not NYT.

My point is that it's not the core problem people have with tiktok in this case. Currently every top level comment here that is critical of TikToker behavior is complaining about exploitation, not lack of factuality. The original article also does not complain about lack of factuality, primarily focusing on exploitation.

Since every top level comment here and all the articles shared about tiktok refer to exploitation and not factuality, it's not the case that "The core problem people have with TikTok spectacle is it is less factual and not substantive.", if by "people " you are referring to HN commenters or people interviewed by the guardian, or the authors of the guardian piece. NYT is silent on the issue since their piece was written months ago.
Agreed, I think all native English speakers would read it as a jokey title (I know I did)
However, those quite a bit better places only employ a small fraction of the number of people of yore and require quite a bit more education thanks to automation.

For example: the Natrona Heights steel mill now employs roughly 100 people on a shift vs when it employed somewhere between 5000-10000 on a shift. Automation killed a ton of employment. Those are the kind of jobs I am talking about.

Don't get me wrong. I don't want to bring all those jobs back. They were terrible jobs.

However, claiming that working those kinds of jobs somehow makes people better is quite suspect, at best.
yeah, and then we remember the videos from the good old downunder where the cops assaulted parents, chased kids around, pinned them down, and injected them with experimental drugs that turned out to cause worse outcome for their agegroup.. this was a couple of years ago.

I really like Churchills sentiment here.

Democracy is very flawed in many aspects in my opinion, starting with the fact that it is the rule of majority over minority.

Yet all other systems of governance seem much worse to me (any rule of minority over majority system like monarchy or dictatorship for example).
Monarchy for example is great as long as your monarch is a sensible, smart, and empathetic person - but terrible when the ones after them aren’t.

I really can’t come up with a better alternative to democracy (aka majority rule) even if I think many of the problems in contemporary western society stem from that majority rule.

Of course there are many more devils in the details and democracies can vary widely across the spectrum.

To me a socialist (as in social, as in having the interest of „the people“ as guiding principle) democracy seems to be the best system humans have been able to come up with so far - the best as in resulting in a good outcome for the biggest portion of people. The Nordic states seem to have gotten it right in most aspects, even if there are many problems even there.

I wonder if there are any other good propositions or systems of governance that have been tried and proven that I have been missing (Spain's anarchist or Mexican syndicalism comes to mind, but I know too little about them to pass any judgement - plus they have been very localised systems afaict)

I think people underestimate how hard it is to truly evaluate someone else’s business. Imagine you hear bullshit every day - you just can’t call people out on it. So in the end you go with something you can actually properly evaluate because of some inside you have as an investor. Of the this ends up being a theme.
I figured that there is something below the rank of species that differentiates them then, but checking what the word for that would be, there is none! Species is the most specific classification of life forms (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxonomic_rank), so then they should be literally the same animal (every caribou is a reindeer and vice versa). Checking Wikipedia:

> "Reindeer is the European name for the species of Rangifer, while in North America, Rangifer species are known as Caribou." The word reindeer is an anglicized version of the Old Norse words hreinn (“reindeer”) and dýr (“animal”) and has nothing to do with reins. The word caribou comes through French, from the Mi'kmaq qalipu, meaning "snow shoveler", and refers to its habit of pawing through the snow for food.

Internationally binding arbitration does exist and is written into trade agreements regularly, e.g. ISDS.

As long as the disputes are small enough to not call into question the entire trade agreement/framework, you can have a backstop that makes this enforceable. The countries that are signatories agree to comply with the decisions so that they remain in good standing wrt the trade agreements.

Talking is waaaaay more time consuming than tapping or typing, having to memorize what I’m able to do on my device instead of just taking a glance at its screen is a lot of cognitive overload, not having any shared UI with others is a recipe for eternal confusion…

I really don’t see any clear advantages of having a one-fits all shapeless interface that’s driven by prompts (verbal or not). Doesn’t feel like a UX that makes sense to me, and I haven’t heard a case where it does yet tbh (I do think the “personal assistant” makes sense, and might replace some stuff, but don’t see how it’d become the next interface for everything)
> The agriculture lobby must be happy.

Agreed.

From TFA: “environmental groups and some scientists expressed reservations about the plan, which would award subsidies based on a scientific model that has previously been used to justify incentives for corn-based ethanol. Studies have found the gasoline additive is exacerbating climate change.”

I’d be very concerned about the higher level impacts of farming for fuels. Specifically what are the total carbon emissions of the farming involved, including losses for alternative land uses. This seems like a cash handout to farmers (aka spending federal funds to boost election chances) that might have the effect of simply moving emissions to another location. Even if the total emissions are somewhat less, one has to wonder how the funds might be more efficiently utilized to mitigate carbon emissions.

EDIT:
Interesting article in Nature about the issues with land use for biofuels worldwide:
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41558-023-01711-7

One key section from the article:
“Combining biofuel production with carbon capture and storage can mitigate the high emissions, but even then, biofuels have a negative climate balance on a 30-year time horizon.”

For anyone curious, I found this article using Google Bard with the following prompt. I’m not sure if it gave me a real article name or a fake one but when I searched the article name Bard gave me it had a lot of good search terms which led me to the Nature link above.

“Can you summarize for me the scientific literature on the impacts of corn ethanol on climate change? Include the negative impacts of large scale farming of corn for subsidized ethanol. Cite your sources with high quality references, preferring scientific research papers when possible.“

EDIT2:
Seems like there are challenges for e-fuels as well. My god we just need to embrace electric trains don’t we.

Right, but GP's point, the jokey title doesn't actually convey much about the study.

I know many articles like to have funny titles. I wonder if this might start to change as people start to use AI more to go through 100,000 journal article titles to quickly see which ones may be useful to their research.

> It's perfectly reasonable to ask for proof of identity when casting a ballot.

If it discourages or prevents people from voting, it has an impact on the outcome. Surely any new requirements should come in to solve an actual problem. Voter fraud is significantly NOT a problem in UK elections.

But then, disenfranchising the wrong voters is the whole point. Same reason elections are held on a work day and you can only vote in a single location unless you organise a postal ballot in advance. Retirees and the idle wealthy don't have a problem with these barriers.

As an Australian used to compulsory voting held on a Saturday where you can vote at any ballot location in the country, I found the way voting is run in the UK baffling. (Also, the fact I could vote!)

I’m not in this game, but it sounds like if there’s a condition, the answer is “no,” rather than great advice.

All these anecdotes boil down to VCs saying “if (false),” where what drives the false proposition is your job to guess about and may be useless.

Wouldn't that allow titles to now contain exclusively humoristic content, because the AI already read the whole paper for you and matched that against your search request rather than merely the title and/or abstract?

I was already wondering if the ability to search abstracts (and modern engines are pretty good at matching synonyms as well unless you "quote" the keyword), and the displaying of excerpts below each title (like any web search engine does), is what makes the current situation workable.

it's certainly interesting. Imo music, and especially the rap by its generally large young audience and creativity is and have been a huge "influencer" of French.

I think the article fail a little bit to put in perspective other influences, and even more when the title say "Africans" when it focus on west and central Africa only. Africa is a continent that don't talk only French, North Africa is part of Africa too, and arabic countries do have an influence too. So, no more bad title please.

Also, it's interesting to think that initially, "True" French was imposed by the state, and by law, in France, that led to the end of local dialects. I just hope that it will not happen in reverse in some africans countries, as pointed out by the article...People should remain free of speech, in whatever languages they want to use.

On the other hand, Disney itself is a talented and successful practitioner of building upon the public domain. In fact, the public domain is Disney’s bread and butter. Frozen was inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s The Snow Queen. The Lion King draws from Shakespeare’s Hamlet, Biblical stories, and possibly an epic poem about the founder of the Mali Empire.[3] Fantasia showcases public domain classical music, and “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” segment comes from a poem by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Alice in Wonderland, Snow White, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, The Little Mermaid, and Pinocchio came from stories by Lewis Carroll, The Brothers Grimm, Victor Hugo, Charles Perrault, Hans Christian Anderson, and Carlo Collodi.
What a legend. Thank you, this is really cool and useful.
> The notion of you as someone willing and even eager to find compromises is notable. We’re in this political moment where compromising is seen as weakness. I mean, there are two different frames for me. The more positive frame is: I’m very consistent in my progressive values, but I want to build a majoritarian coalition for these progressive values, and I want to do so with a hopeful, unifying vision and the recognition that I don’t have a monopoly on the truth. We need this temperament to make progressivism not just 20 to 30 percent of the party but a majoritarian part. The negative spin would be: This is opportunistic or not pure enough. I may end up upsetting both the progressives and the moderates, or I may succeed. That remains to be seen.

Therein lies the fatal flaw of the Democratic Party.
They simply ignore the Overton Window
because they know it is better for them to simply ignore this reality.
Democrat leaders would much rather ignore the fact
that the Republican Party is in no mood for a compromise.

My personal conspiracy theory
is that the Democrat operatives are elated to see Roe v Wade fail.
They get to play with a lot more money
so they will earn more money.
It is not in their best interest (at least in the short term) to solve any problem.
Just pretend that you are a "pragmatist" and want a compromise.

Ignore the fact that the "compromise" position keeps moving to the right and we lose everything.
