> At this stage in my questions there is nothing to enforce, no rules yet.

You earlier wrote: > a better question would be “for each case do you think the police should spend taxpayer money enforcing the rule?”.

It's this that I've been addressing.

There are very few brand new polities in the world today, and even then I presume the powers that be for most of them accept the previous laws as a baseline. Full law rewrites happen, but they're rare, even on internet forums. So basically everyone is stuck with a system of laws to which they did not agree, and which do not fully address the parameters of today. Thus, "are you going to be hassled?"

You're free to ignore the setup for the game. But that's what you're doing: ignoring it. And by ignoring it you're ignoring the lesson it's trying to teach which the entire blog post is based on.

> I think the disagreement is manufactured by the poor question design and not real, and if we had no rules yet, asked about various situations and found whether people approved/disproved of them in a park, we'd have much more agreement.

And again, in moderating decisions this is not seen. I believe the problem is more the severity of punishments handed down with unelected moderating decision. But recall that even in elected democracies significant chunks of the population feel that their votes do not, or would not, matter.

Without stating my attitudes on the matter, I found it informative that the blog post of the original link mentions feminism and the trans issue.

So here:

> And that there needs to be some skin in the game - to enforce a thing needs your tax dollars spent on police, and police time spent on this instead of something else, so do you still think it's worth making a rule for X situation?

This point of view is assuming the privilege of being heard and rules changing to address the majority concern.

> You can't even know that, that's just inviting speculative fearmongering, and therefore won't be interesting results.

No, you can't know that. Thus calling the police on a child selling bottled water on the street without a permit, and the counter-protests and doxxing against the caller as a response: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/permit-patty-alison-ettel-calls...

Since we were all privileged because this was just a game, I tried to make rules on what a vehicle actually is, instead of asking what are the odds a person would be hassled. But I think I've made my point that asking whether you are likely to be hassled is a legitimate method people use to determine what the laws allow. If I haven't, then just ask when do people disregard the speed limit on roads and when do they drive just below it.
Not sure I understand the information at your link, but as far as I can tell, the most weight that has been deadlifted by a teenage female (<20yo, open weight) is 391lbs.

Maybe I suck at web search? Is there a teenage female record holder who has smashed that weight and I’m just not finding anything about it?
New is not better (wayland cannot abolutely position new windows, cannot do mouse keyboard sharing (except via non-standard libei which different waylands reject, etc). Unchanging is not broken (X11 works just fine, just because it's not constantly getting new code doesn't mean it stops working).

The primary features I'm missing focus around the way GNOME developers believe files should be interacted with. They believe the file chooser should be a search interface and making things like pathbar the only option and removing filename-entry, and the entire gsettings for it, are part of this. GNOME developers have drastically changed the GUI for file selection so that typing, pasting, or entering filepaths has been made difficult. Everything has to be done through the automagic "search" (which often bugs out) or mouse interface. This would be fine as defaults, but they've literally removed the former options in gsettings to config a gtk application's behavior. They say these are "private" and we should never have been using them all. All bugs since 2014 marked "wontfix" and community patches rejected. Basically, GNOME is anti-keyboard.

I think that the gross changes to Gtk3 over the past 10 years have been minimal and that yes, a group of a dozen people could maintain it in it's static form and prevent further eroding of features. I compile my own Gtk3 with fixes for the gtkfilechooserwidget.c that have been rejected by the Gtk team ("gtk3 is frozen" "filechooser is too much spaghetti, any change fixing one thing would break another"). Maybe even apply some of the many community fixes that the GNOME developers consistent reject and ignore (just look at the Arch Gtk3 fixes patch set). Can they develop and add new features like new renderers and support for Wayland? No, but that is not needed.

I don't appreciate you turning this into a personal issue, that's generally against HN tos.

Immigration.

Not necessarily wrong but why some countries have higher birth rates. Subsidize current citizens costs for more natural born citizens. More people/workers - immigration.
those are high-value products/gens where nvidia did indeed “pass along the savings”.

Turing and ampere as a whole were already below the price increase curve due to the trailing node. Ampere certainly was a massive attempt at passing the savings through - 3060 ti and 3080 were both really aggressively priced and were great overall products. Notoriously, 3060 ti was so aggressively priced that partners didn’t even want to make it at msrp…

And Turing is another example of the “AMD is subject to the same overall industry price trends/not able to drastically beat nvidia pricing either” too - sure, AMD leapt ahead to 7nm early with 5700xt… and this was more expensive than Nvidia’s solution with Turing, such that AMD was not able to undercut Nvidia’s pricing. Those cost increases have been eating up the density gains for a long time now.

Nvidia is really actually doing the things that keep the costs down, and ampere and Turing indeed bent the cost curve below where it would otherwise have been. It’s obviously not going to stay fixed, the era of $100 and $150 gaming gpus being serious contenders has obviously long since come to a close, and now it’s happening for $200-300 gpus too, $500-600 is where a $300 gpu was 10 years ago.

People just don’t have any way to objectively determine what “true” prices should be, and refuse to believe the true price is rising because it offends their “gamer” worldview. It has to be gouging, otherwise I don’t get a new Sony GameStation X every 2 years at the exact same price, and that can’t be possible.

Come on, it's hard to deny that the last year has proven that the vast majority don't leave when platforms like Reddit and Twitter succumb to extreme enshittification. The eternal September is passive and docile.

Those sites are already spiritually dead in the sense that they're only tolerated and no longer enjoyed. But they've achieved too big a network effect to be replaced anytime soon.

A lot of things in politics can be murky. US republican votes on certain issues, is not one of them. If this stuff is obvious to me, and I don't even live there, I have to wonder how it is you can be so under-informed to genuinely think that Republican legislators are not against the restriction of contraception.
Switzerland has more immigrants than the USA in a per capita basis, so by that reasoning, should have a higher birth rate, not lower. Switzerland also admits plenty of immigrants from high birth rate countries (Africa, the Middle East).
What do you think the chances are that the police are affiliated with the swatters?
This reminds me of the advice Stephen Hawking's publisher gave him, which was that every equation he included in his book, A Brief History of Time, would cut the sales of the book in half. As a result the only equation that ended up in the book was E=mc^2.

AI + human dating
Imagine a tiny economy with two people. There is one guy that produces everything humans need and he can produce one day worth of supplies in four hours. But to keep his business running he depends on a piece of software that the other guy wrote, without it he could not produce anything. The other guy happily licenses his software for one day of supplies per day. Now the only thing he has to do besides enjoying all his supplies is to now and then spend an hour of work to maintain the software.
This remains a remarkable misrepresentation of the points I made yesterday. I had hoped for better, not least in that you might try speaking with rather than past and over me.

> Do most grandparents want to be live in caretakers to young children? No, they have better things to do.

It’s also often not feasible even in cases where grandparents (or other relatives) are willing, due to the modern necessity for people to move to where employment prospects (and/or other economic factors, e.g. housing costs) are best, separating families with great distances.

If you have something to lose, you will be far more cautious about all aspects of life than someone with nothing. Sex is one of those primal drives that are easy to ignore when there are other things to pay attention to, and easy to indulge in without thinking much when everything has gone to shit. It's not exactly hard to understand that people with options will plan their lives much more intensively than those who don't know if they will be able to eat tomorrow.
And yet Wayland still does not work on my laptop (tons of graphical glitches, unbearable lag when hooked up to external 4k monitors) whereas X works fine.

I’ve been hearing for years that Wayland is the future and X is deprecated but it doesn’t match my reality.
Firstly, what age group are we talking about here? Is this Kindergarten kids or is this College Sophomores?

Following this line of thought though, does this mean that if someone is against teachers providing gun education classes, then they are in favor of restricting or eliminating gun rights? There would definitely be some overlap, probably even mostly, but I could see someone arguing that gun rights are important but school isn't the most appopriate place for that to be taught.
The logic being that they can get cheaper iphone independently from apple because iphones currently work against having third party parts. The third party market for apple is stronger because of that guarantee.

It similar to how you can bring an iphone out more easily without worry of it being stolen for ransom since you can lock it down and wipe it remotely.
High rates in poor places are easily explained by lack of birth control.

The thing to compare is societies with birth control and higher rates of reproduction vs those with lower. Comparing with or without easily accessed birth control doesn’t tell us much.

Why, for example, is South Korea’s birth rate so much lower than France or the USA?

Very authoritarian cultures that forbid birth control are also less relevant.
> For me, I noticed that small doses of quality alcohol (good Czech or Belgian beer) seem to actually have positive effects on my sleep.

Do you think Czech or Belgian beer have a different "form" of ethanol than other beers, or is it something else in them that causes the difference?
Personalized instruction (by a good-enough teacher) almost always beats out any kind of standard curriculum given to 20 kids at once, no matter how good that curriculum is.

Phonics may or may not be the best way to teach reading in a classroom setting to students of diverse skills, but it's a really hard problem to solve. Even agreeing on the evaluation of outcomes is difficult. (e.g: should your scoring function be about getting kids up to a minimum standard, average performance, or increase from beginning of year?)
Not the person you asked, but the main qualifications are having a pulse and knowing any of C, C++, and Python. The main obstacle you're going to run into from an educational perspective is that people won't want to hire you for controls-specific roles, but those are a niche within a niche. Interview questions will often involve talking about things like RTOSes, writing a queue in C, handling ISRs, and sending messages on a bus (e.g. CAN/i2c/spi).

If you feel bad about yourself because of that, think of it not like something personal, it's a lot connected to the environment you are from, and some factors cannot be controlled.

It's actually the ultimate sign of luxury when you have time to study, AND resources to go to a good school, AND enough free time and money to spend on gadgets, AND you can afford to throw thousands on something useless, etc.

> a glass of wine with dinner isn't even going to be detectable in your body by the time you go to sleep

Unless you have dinner really early and go to sleep really late, I don't think that's true. The half life of alcohol is 4-5 hours and it peaks in the blood around 60-90 minutes after ingestion. [1]

What a pleasing object.
That’s not what I’m responding to, obviously. This is what GP said:

it is somehow acceptable for police to show up a a residence in full battle gear, when the resident has no criminal record and there is no known probable cause to use such deadly force.
Swat should be rarely, if ever used. Instead they're used in more than 90% of these cases.

All of that is obviously bullshit if you spend 45 seconds thinking about reality.

Obviously there is an infinite number of different calls to police that can justify an aggressive, armed, SWAT response to someone previously unknown to law enforcement.
I feel the preparation and loading of the dataset has been abstracted too far away. I have no idea what type of data format I need or how it is loaded for this (it is using a pre-prepared huggingface dataset?). If I have local data how should it be loaded? What does that even look like? Is it expecting some sort of JSON?

When you get so far as to abstracting every step to loading a one-liner from huggingface, including the downloading of a prepared dataset with no example of doing the same on custom local dataset, you've abstracted too far to be useful for anyone other than the first user.
The only ones I know of are the ConnectPRO ones. I have a UDP2-14AP, but it's really finicky. It works great with some systems and monitors, even at high resolutions and refresh rates. But other systems (for me, my MacBook) involve several blank-and-move-all-your-windows-around cycles before it settles and becomes usable after switching to it. I suspect this might be a monitor compatibility thing with the Mac, but I'm not sure.

Anyway, it's pricey and picky about compatibility, so it's hard to recommend, but I'm not aware of anything comparable in terms EDID emulation and support for high res/refresh modes.

Edit: Based on a sibling comment, the situation may have changed and there may be comparable ones around!
Ages ago, there was an alphabet system which was phonetic in character, but worked by modifying the lower portion of the letters where necessary --- the idea being that most recognition is based on the upper portion, and that this eased transition.

The modification of the lower half was done to match how other letters which made the same sound were shaped, so again, an aspect which would transfer to normal alphabets.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find it since that first encounter, and I looked quite hard when my children were learning to read.

Depends on what the problem definition is. If it's having an as bullet proof solution as possible, you're of course right.

But there are simpler and cheaper solutions that might be good enough.

I guess my intention was also to point out that there're mature frameworks for many languages, but somehow most people in the Go community keep reinventing the wheel and unfortunately more often worse than better. Some years ago I wrote a Go web service. Of course I found the first two versions of OPs series. They're great to read and even greater to watch on YT, but I preferred the approach ardanlabs (Bill Kennedy). It was for sure interesting going through all of this, but incredible time consuming.
Thank you for posting this, I went looking as soon as I saw the first reply to the topic saying the reason was money.

I think I read an article about Korea that attributed the precipitous drop in birthrate to an advertising campaign that equated children to being a burden in order to lower what was at the time a very high birthrate.

To my mind, the most likely reason is that for most people having kids is not a priority. Need more money, worried about climate change/terrorism/fear-in-vogue, etc.

I have two kids, they were born when I was in my 30's. I wish that I could have had them earlier...you are able to recover more when you are younger.
There’s a real risk here to your daughter - your daughters’ teacher sounds at least reasonable, but ideally we wouldn’t force any kid to the lowest common denominator. Only reason to do so is cost, as it’s harder to manage more classes with different skill levels. When I was learning English and was well ahead of my classmates due to similar at home involvement, at school I quickly lost interest and wouldn’t bother with assignments, leading to poor grades. This phase passed and I ended up doing fine, but no thanks to the teachers involved. Could have gone the other way just as easily and then from an advanced learned I would have become a problem one.
It depends a lot on the parents.

If you'll permit me a generalization, well-off parents generally have more time, energy and money to spend on their children's development. For example, if you're a stay-at-home parent, you have more time to think about how to get your kid reading. Maybe you're teaching them directly, maybe you're buying books you think they'll like, or teaching by example by reading books in your spare time.

If both parents are working double-shifts to make rent, you might just be happy that your kid is being quiet watching TV, so you can get some sleep.
Phonics, then grammar.

This is what works, and we know that it works. The evidence says so. We homeschool our child and we've used a UK phonics program and now a UK grammar program. Kiddo is now a voracious reader. Finding suitable books to keep kiddo happy is the new challenge.
Ah, good to know, I think it was not available when I bought mine. I would have preferred 27" to 28" due to DPI.
