My wife has had to listen to me complain for the last week about what a pain it is to get the absolute orientation of an iPhone from the browser.

On Android you can use AbsoluteOrientationSensor or deviceorientationabsolute event. These will provide a quaternion or Euler angles describing how to rotate the device from the default orientation (flat on the ground, screen up, with the top pointing north) to its current orientation.

The situation on the iPhone has almost reduced me to tears. As far as I can tell, it only provides Euler angles relative to some implementation defined reference frame, along with the actual compass heading. In practice, the Euler angles given are absolute with respect to gravity, but always treat north as the direction the phone was pointed when the first sensor reading took place. To deal with this, you can use the actual compass heading to rotate the relative orientation to the absolute orientation. But this will have problems near the poles, as the Euler angles and heading will give conflicting values. Beyond this the compass heading field is really weird. If you want to experience its behavior for yourself, take the iPhone compass app and starting from flat, rotate the phone 360 degrees through the pitch axis. Notice at what points the heading flips between its start heading and start heading+180. I bet it will surprise you!
> People on vegetarian diets may be able to maintain “health” because they avoid potential meat-related nutrient deficiencies through one or more of the following ways: 1) Taking meat nutrient replacements to meet essential nutrient needs.

> The underlying reasons may be that meat not only provides energy but also complete nutrients to human body.

It seems that these issues can be addressed by modern vitamins and supplements. I've heard that you can be just as healthy as a vegetarian as long as you're still getting the necessary ones from another source. Another user (zhivota) mentioned the article not accounting for wealth or income, which can certainly limit access to the alternatives.

"From the river to the sea" has nothing to do with expulsion and everything to do with an end to militarily-enforced apartheid. It's highly disingenuous to continue to affirm that this slogan is genocidal when it simply isn't. Astonishingly bad faith when the people saying it are telling you exactly what they mean by it, and it's not mass expulsion or genocide, but equal treatment under the law and a respect for human rights.

> average worker actually responsible for creating value

CEOs actually are generally responsible for creating a lot of value, but most importantly, enabling a lot of value to be created by many others. When there is a causal link from you to a lot of created value, you tend to be paid proportionally well.

To believe that value is only actually created by average workers, and not the organizers of this work such as leaders or business owners, is quite short sighted. There are strong ideologies pushing this belief which I hope is not influencing your thought process.

Yes, there are bad CEOs out there, but they are not generally all bad.
1. I have plenty of bones to pick with Haidt, but he's not one to deemphasize male suffering for the purposes of politically correct rhetoric. He explicitly points out in the article that even now, teen male suicide far outpaces teen female suicide.

2. It is genuinely interesting if we're moving from a 4:1 to 2:1 M:F suicide rate, and I think that can be placed on social media. And if there is a single concrete cause of the change in ratio, that increase in female suicide rates can be reversed. That would be a good thing, even if it only improves young women's lives.

3. As unfair as it is, people don't give a shit about male suicide rates; the general response is "they deserve it," and no argumentation is going to change their minds. If people start seeing suicide as an issue that affects both sexes, perhaps that can provide the basis for some policy that will have the unintended effect of helping male suicide rates.
Im not sure that a world where girls kill themselves at the same rate as boys is a healthy one.
Oh people are still working on it? I know FF wasn’t working on it anymore but I had thought development was basically stopped completely. It’s good to hear it’s still moving forward.
This makes no sense. There are too many companies and too many boards that could just hire any old MBA off the street for non-CEO-cartel prices and get the job done.

There is no constrained supply of people willing to be the Mozilla CEO for, say, $2M/year.

worked at a midsize mature startup. got bought out by private equity. it wasn't revealed that private equity actually fully bought them out until about the second round of layoffs. monthly layoffs and heavy outsourcing, I survived 8 rounds until they finally got me just in time for the holidays.

According to Claudine Gay, in accordance with Harvard's policies these are perfectly acceptable on campus:

- "Disgraced former Harvard President Claudine Gay is finally back picking cotton where she belongs"

- "I think the black students should be picking cotton, not studying at Harvard"

Those quotes are also protected under the 1st amendment. Regardless, they're also vile, and the merits of the expression are so utterly vacuous that it has no substance for mind-expanding endeavors that universities claim to be for. Similar to calling for a genocide.

Claudine Gay is a mediocre person who should genuinely be embarrassment for setting back everything she claims to stand for by a decade, if not more.
For instance, Nintendo has entries in the artist DB - those affected by Japanese law may care:

> Japan’s new guidelines also sketch out pathways to protect artists’ work, but the legalities can quickly get dense. An aggrieved artist will have to prove that a commercially sold, AI-generated piece of art has “similarity” with their own work.

> “If a company isn’t careful, artists can sue or demand compensation if their work is used to create parts of commercial products.”
They can show the work’s “reliance on an existing image,” according to Taichi Kakinuma, an AI-focused partner at the law firm Storia. The fastest way to prove this is with evidence that the work was used as training data. But since training data sets are not publicly disclosed, they may have no knowledge of its use, let alone be able to secure evidence

> arbitrary of a grouping

Arbitrary? It’s the UK, and former UK colonies with historically majority UK settlers where English is the most common language spoken, their legal and political systems share a considerable amount in common, and who have one of the strongest cultural, political, and military relationships in history. This is perhaps the least arbitrary grouping on the planet.
The marketing around this is will win the best newspeak of 2024 - the pharmaceutical companies are making it sound like they're selling it at this price out of the kindness of their hearts. No mention of the decades of price gouging and the new laws to put a stop to it.

> Prop 13 means that any property tax increase won't apply to anyone who's owned a home for a long period of time,

No, it doesn't. Assuming that a taxing jurisdiction in California was to raise property tax rates, Prop 13 would apply the rate increase to all taxpayers in the jurisdiction. The lower effective tax rate for people who have owned a property longer under Prop. 13 isn't a limitation in their nominal rate, it is a limitation in their basis value (assessment increases are generally limited to the lower of 2% or the rate of inflation each year.)

But that's all theoretical, in reality, Prop 13 means there won't be any increases to property tax at all, barring repeal or amendment of Prop 13 itself.

While everyone talks about the limitation on tax basis value assessment increases in Prop 13, Prop 13 also sets a very low maximum property tax rate of 1%, and every taxing jurisdiction in the state already has their rate set at this rate, so it is impossible under Prop 13 to raise property taxes rates.

As your comment stands now the linked graph is:

Figure 2. U.S. Adolescent and Adult Suicide Rates (Ages 10-59), 1981-2021

not Figure 5: England and Wales ...
You speak of not being political, yet your comment seems to lean in a certain direction. I also find your description of Akans quite disingenuous - you claim they are usually not good administrators or planners - how are you measuring the group's competency in these areas?
I don't really have an opinion, but people at large usually perceive a world where gender differences are negligible to be a healthier one. Why do you think it's the opposite in this case?
Ok, I'll bite: The conclusion implied by the headline ("Especially for Girls") is that female suicides are a larger problem than male suicides, while the numbers say the exact opposite, by a huge margin.

The web could help new mobile operating systems succeed specifically because the web handles the catch-22 of kickstarting a new dual-sided marketplace (to get users you need app developers creating apps but to get app developers you need users). Building a new marketplace is a significant challenge and prevent(ed) new mobile operating systems from succeeding (e.g. Firefox OS, Windows Phone, Ubuntu Touch) among other reasons.

Echo Nest was one hell of an analysis company. We lost some amazing work when Spotify purchased it. The silverlining is that their Audio Analysis API endpoint is basically Echo Nest's work made wholesale available for each song they have but we lost the potential for improvements.

It looks like it's a step in the right direction.

There are several classes of insulin products available today:

Rapid-acting insulin, short-acting ("normal insulin"), intermediate-acting, long-acting, ultra-long acting and pre-mixed (a combination of the above).

Lantus, the first one mentioned in the article, is a long-acting insulin. Novolog, novolin, and levemir are rapid, sort/intermediate, and long respectively.

So it's not just basic insulin that is seeing the price reduction.
I read the article, and the title seems to me as accurate and the most significant outcome. Suicide rates going up is a major cause for concern. They are up across the board and significantly up for women. If you think there's some agenda here, I suspect that it's actually your own confirmation bias that's popping up.
When you start, your language is just for you so the question is are syntax highlighting and auto-formatting table stakes for you? If yes, then I'd suggest you learn how to write a tree-sitter grammar and integrate with your editor of choice. This will also get you up and running with a basic AST rather quickly and you can decide whether or not you want to write your own parser or just use the tree-sitter generated ast for your compiler.

> He explicitly points out in the article that even now, teen male suicide far outpaces teen female suicide.

Which makes the headline, which is the only thing the vast majority of people will look at (something the author is well aware of), even more disingenuous bordering on dishonest.
I was responding to "Is asking Americans to have less than one car per adult family member really that much?". In my case, yes, it is.

I'm confused about how the article minimizes the suicide rate in boys. It even has multiple paragraphs analyzing why this gap exists.

It seems like you're framing gender dynamics as a zero-sum game, where improving the situation of one results in stepbacks the other. I agree that men do face significant struggles in today's society [1], but there are ways to move forward in ways that benefit everyone [2].

Let me guess. You can host it on a gaming laptop? I figured it by reading expenses from the public reports before Musk, subtracting costs for the fired employees etc. and he still can’t pay half his bills.
I think it's more like: how would you rewrite this headline? Would you just leave off the second clause completely? Otherwise, if it does seem salient that the increase in suicide rate is higher among girls, how would you include that information without making people angry because they think that doing so ignores the historically higher rates among males?

To me, it seems like an okay headline. The focus of the story is on the change, so it's not wrong to focus on the areas that change more.
> for code you love it is the devil

This doesn't have to be true! Zig's `zig fmt` doesn't wrap on column count but instead lets you insert breaks with a ",". While this does introduce a level of user discretion which can diminish the braindeadness of autoformatters, I find that it works a lot better because now I can choose where the reasonable place to break is. There may technically be more wiggle room for debate, but now you're spending less time debating variable names or whatever to get it to format not-awfully.

Such a skewed ratio of suicide among males and females point more to a problem with social order than to an innate susceptibility of males to suicide. That means that the current situation is certainly unhealthy, compared to if male suicide rates can be lowered to match female suicide rate.

The warping in the tech demo is definitely more distracting than a simple dividing line, but it's exciting to see the potential for genuinely seamless transitions between single and split screen gameplay!

In what might be a bit of a cursed, uninformed thought - but I'd like to see what happens if each player's perspective could be altered individually. Would it be possible for players to have unique camera perspectives when split, and then reorient to the same perspective when within a given distance to transition to single screen?

From memory (as I have been unable to find a demo video), the LEGO series had some interesting approaches to dealing with this. IIRC LEGO Marvel Super Heroes gave players control of their camera when in the open world, so in Dynamic Splitscreen mode there was a little fade transition when recombining cameras to single screen. Pretty sure there was a little delay too so it wouldn't recombine unnecessarily, and it was typically a more annoying point of the splitscreen as the dividing line would pivot more dramatically - something the raytraced approach would definitely improve!
