I have multiple TNXB SNPs, tested very high IQ, and have debilitating levels of inflammation with ME/CFS. Wasn’t so bad when I was younger but got really bad in my 20s and 30s. I have it under control now with quite an exotic mix of medications.

My memory is pretty insanely good as is my ability to learn new things. I had previously thought it was due to interest and acumen but have come to accept that I am fortunate in ways that others are not - the difference being that I no longer blame others inability to learn as much or as quickly on an apparent laziness or lack of interest.

ME/CFS is very debilitating though so most people with this will probably just fade away in their 20s and 30s. There are ways to treat it that I wish more people knew about.

Edit; I should mention that too much inflammation is associated with brain fog which inhibits working memory and memory formation. Brain fog is one of the many core symptoms of ME/CFE.

It would make sense if the body is optimizing childhood learning over long term health.
Yes, those examples too assign a number to something. Enumeration is not a new concept. In fact, it's an incredibly old concept that emerged in programming langauges as a hack to work around our, a the time, limited understanding of type systems. A modern type system has no reason for enums at all. Of course, Go purposefully tries to be an 'old' language, hence why it copied the antiquated pattern of providing assignment of numbers as a language feature.
A $77B market that's growing by 10% each year doesn't mean much when the government turns against you demands you do a bunch of expensive investments for nationalist reasons. See also: all the investors fleeing china because they were spooked by the tech crackdown/covid lockdowns. "Punishing a company because it's selling out Americans in favor of cheap labor" is basically the same thing but with a different coat of paint.
Yep, I've recently installed our town's app on my phone which apparently makes reporting easier - but the weather and scheduling hasn't been conducive to evening-time walks. I'll get around to it later, and eventually see people complaining about folks "not minding their own business" when they get a ticket.
Here in NL it is quite common for grandparents to help parents out with day care on their workdays. School pickup is rife with grandparents…
Schools should sue the parents for allowing their kids unfettered access to social media and smartphones.
> it makes no practical difference given that no code scrutiny is given the majority of the time.

I was thinking about this the other day. I wonder what my leadership would say if I told them I spent the day scrutinizing some of our open source dependencies. I assume even a day would be treated as wasted time, especially on the product side.

FWIW, I used to do this back in the early Rails day and was encouraged to do so. I ended up contributing heavily to the Rails ecosystem because of it, and it was all encouraged by my employer at the time, but they were a relatively small startup at the time and viewed things very differently than the FAANG I work for today.
Obviously there are gains that can be made, but unfortunately the very act of making food more "efficient", inherently makes it less healthy.

Pretty much everything that makes food healthy, also makes it more expensive, more inconvenient, or both. Shelf life, processing, mass production - all make it cheaper, but less nutritious.
This is the resource curse.
You could argue that the buyback itself, like the moment where the company actually buys the shares back, is a pump moment. they could have the demand far outstrip the typical demand in the moment. But long-term, the price should be higher as they have decreased supply.
Only because you don't have proper IDs over there in the US?

I'd say a lot of identity problems are there because companies have to identify people without an official ID somehow...
Yeah. The ability to torture your citations until they say what you want does not make them evidence for your theory. (Seriously, I second downut - read the reference before you decide you agree with Girard.)

And if he's doing that to the foundational texts of Christianity, that makes me inclined to view his statements about Christianity very skeptically, for all he claims that he is consistent with Christianity and supporting Christianity.
Overly sensationalist "for the views" as most things unfortunately are.

We should focus on the substance not the form. The substance of Agile, namely the principles [1], is very sensible not least becomes it was created by 'battle-hardened' people. It's not a panacea and might not fit every scenario, but on the whole it addresses most of the gripes most people have experienced developing software.

The form this takes in pactice in less important. If you don't like/want/need deaily stand-ups then don't do daily stand-ups.

And of course the following (from the article) is true, and tends to be true for anything:

"The word 'agile' has been subverted to the point where it is effectively meaningless, and what passes for an agile community seems to be largely an arena for consultants and vendors to hawk services and products."

>And no, like others will inevitably suggest you can’t just legislate a multinational company to build its facilities onshore because you need them to.

Of course you can. But if you do, you have to accept the consequences.

Again and again people here pretend that just becythe government does it there will be no consequences.
It's a solved problem in the sense that it involves components that are all understood to work, integrated. This is the surest kind of innovation.

Now, we don't know how cheap it will ultimately be once these things are integrated and run down their experience curves. But pretending there's any serious doubt that they would work is more dishonest than arguing they would.
Definitely confusing. I read it as though I could use my epipen if I had a heart attack (which feels like the opposite of what you should do)
> "Just take the phones away," said Gillian Henderson.

>"I don't think we need to sue anybody, that seems like a long, expensive process. Just take away their phones in class and give them back to them when they need them."

Tried, and failed. Even before these social media apps, school boards back in ~2006 (!!) already attempted to enact these bans.

They failed. Teachers don't want an additional item to enforce, and students are FANTASTIC at hiding them. Ask any millennial what it was like typing T9. We can probably still do it without looking.
What is data? The classical and postmodern views
This made me laugh. Kudos on the quip.
> "We would essentially be the same person if we had been adopted at birth and raised in a different family.".

If you look at twins that are raised apart this is freakishly true. Twins raised apart have outcomes that are far closer than 2 unrelated kids raised together.

> And what about all the studies about the consequences of father absence?

If you look at children with an absent father vs children with a dead father you find that 80% of the effect disappears in the second group. And that still doesn't entirely eliminate the genetic component because genes influence behavior that can lead to death. This strongly suggests that sharing genes with a deadbeat dad is worse for you than not being raised by a father.
It's time for North American billionaires to cut back on flying private jets. Figures like the Kardashians, Taylor Swift and her boyfriend Travis Kelce, Meghan and Harry are living it up, while the less affluent are bending over backward to protect the environment. LOL.
Extending managed phishing campaigns to customers sounds like a very good way to erode the trust of those customers in your bank.

Neurons are not on the germ line, whatever happens to their DNA is not passed down to your children.

There was another article in the recent years about neurons using RNA or DNA for storing information related to their activation patterns.
Same. I don’t know where I’d be without it honestly. But certainly not where I am. It was the first and only thing that ever really clicked for me. Only I found it back in the early 2000s. Quite how I found it, I’ll never remember, but I found it at a dark time in my life and it had a profound impact then, through now.
>There is a minority of the country that is over represented in the media

Are those that support people to own and carry guns a minority?

Edit: Well, that came out a bit wrong, I think. I didn't mean to support or not support OP. I was just curious.
Why do I think it has declined but will go back up?

Because I've been following the field since the early 1990s and have been in it since the mid 1990s, and have seen it act as a sine wave, although the amplitude can change.

The US was in a recession until March 1991, and this affected the IT job market. Even out to 1993 it was slow. It began picking up in 1994, more in 1995, more in 1996, until 1999 when it was hotter than I've ever seen it. Then the dot com crash happened in 2000, and things were worse for the next three years, especially in IT companies. Then things began picking up until the 2008 subprime crash which affected the whole economy.

As others have alluded to in the thread, for people just coming out of college in spring of 2011 - interest rates were 0.10%. This is historically unusual. IT companies and IT were in a go-go time for a number of years up until the end of 2022, not seen since the dot-com days.

IT companies were hiring and paying like crazy in 1999. It was much more difficult to get a good-paying, or even any, job at an IT company in the Bay Area in 2001. By 2007 things had picked up a little. Then at the end of 2009 things were dire all over the economy. Then by 2021 IT was booming again.

So will it be booming again in the future like it was in 1999 or 2021? History says it will. Will it again be in the dumps like it was in 2001, 2009 and to some extent now? History says it will.

I don't see any historic change from what happened in the past, although of course some computer languages are falling out of favor while others are coming into favor, and job roles are shifting around - yesterday was monolithic, today is microservers, yesterday was waterfall, today is agile and scrum etc. People have been programming since the 1950s, and the job market has seen its ups and downs since then. Nothing happened in the past year and a half that is off of that.

It's possible neural networks will change things in the coming years, but someone is going to have to program all those Python pytorch scripts and the like. I'm sure in the next year or two we will see amazing new things like Sora come out. We'll even see programmers using LLMs or whatever to generate little functions more. The notion that neural networks are going to wipe out programmers in the next year or two (or three, or four) is inane. I can barely get ChatGPT 4 to write some simple (WORKING) functions I want, never mind gather specifications, ask for clarifications on those specifications, design a proper architecture for the project with unit testing and so on. This will surely improve in the next few years, but not by much in the next few years at least.
I think it works tremendously well to take phones away.

Let parents and students know that if you’re caught with a phone, it will be taken from you and not given back until the end of the year.

It’s literally that simple.

Are these treaties binding? I know there can be other repercussions for signatories for violating treaties. But usually there are no clear rules on what the repercussions should be. Also , since signatories are nation-states, not sure how individuals could be held accountable for any violations by the international community. Such as private corporations
It does; I got this running easily because fortunately I have current postgres and psycopg2 installed so no tangential problems to interfere with the main event.

So clearly the example shows how I can issue a SELECT statement against the raw data. Is there a concise statement about what the DP'd statement offers me? This isn't access control or raw data obfuscation in the traditional sense. What is the consumable use case here as opposed to, say, the statistically private use?
Not to mention that if someone isn't a psychologist they shouldn't be spouting off about the Dunning-Kruger effect anyway because arguably they don't have enough competence in that particular domain to be able to talk about it intelligently.
They get lucrative agreements with big contracting houses to backfill those roles for cheaper than the onshore cost. PE overlords have us running on a fte/contractor ratio mandate. I can only assume it’s due to money and the ability to rapidly reduce headcount on demand.
I suggest you read the paper (https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fsoc.2022.81476) which you dismissed. I have found that it summarizes most of the realizations I had from my own research. Otherwise it takes too long for me to explain.

Assistant professor, lecturer, reviewed by post doc. It's an article that summarizes stuff nicely referencing papers.

> but does not go as far as establishing a causal relationship

I love how the attitude is: here is a drug that you would think would cause side-effects and tolerance...which is does...and then the onus is on everyone to conclusively prove that it's bad. Smoke until we realize it causes cancer. Take opiates until we realize they are extremely addictive in certain packaging.

It's very much carefree experimentation on the world, rather than being risk-averse and acknowledging what we don't know.

It is common sense that the body will seek homeostasis to deal with this artificially increased dopamine levels. Which this study seems to indicate.

But it comes down to risk-appetite.

> DSM-IV vs. DSM-5.

We changed the diagnosis criteria and got: surprise, 27% increase in expected prevalence. How convenient.

The diagnosis criteria are just made up. The cause is not proven at all. There is no biomarker or imagery that can diagnose the condition successfully.

So patients present with an impairment...then you look at who has the impairment and craft the criteria such that it explains the impairment. Its a circular definition and extremely broad.
Wow, the number of insane racist comments that keep popping up and having to be flagged here.

You know, I like giant industrial projects and all, but based on the headline I was expecting something a little more exciting.

Anyway, neat crane idea.
But supporters are not going to unite with haters to kill Trump, either literally or figuratively. Sure, Trump has a lot of the characteristics, but the way Girard says the scapegoat plays out is not going to happen with Trump. Even if he loses the election - even if he winds up in jail - a significant chunk of the country is still going to support him. He's not going to be universally condemned and unite everyone by their rejection of him.
These are good points. Society will need to decide if we push back on AI and aim for upholding the standard of human quality or accept a higher efficiency at a lower quality.
Except they do still charge you first before figuring out they won't actually ship you the goods as promised. It is the charging and then not delivering that is the problem.
>They either become some Enterprise Ready amalgamation of saga's, redux, message-bus, setups, or they offer too little guidance

At least Redux provides a semblance of immediately grokable data flow, this all gets worse with mobx which gives you all the flour you need to make spaghetti for the whole village. Worked on a codebase where you might have to chase down references across all sorts of files you wouldn't expect because everything is 'observable' so people, working 2-week sprints, just stop thinking about any kind of coherent structure cause it works anyway.
You mean it copied how programming used to be before 1970's. Great achievement.
The biggest lie the banks get people to believe is that they're somehow "scamming" the credit card companies by paying off everything in full each month.

By "the non-woke parts of the world", you mean the parts with less advanced technology, less per-capita economic production by every measure, less personal security, less general education of the populace, and just generally less of every possible benefit of having "a civilization".

And by "always" you mean times with less of all those things.

You're not very good at this...
Do students in the US not get held back if tjey dont pass their grades?
You don't have to be an Astrophysicist. We have color photographs. Nothing in anyone's model of how things work can refute direct evidence, if evidence and the understanding of the world collide, it is the understanding that gets altered to fit the evidence.

And I'm not astrophysicist either, I'm just playing with a stacked deck, because I have trained my new feed to give me quirky (if not mostly useless) neat bits of information. For example, if anyone writes about Voyager, I'm likely to hear about it in a few days.

"Apparently at certain times, like during sunsets, the sun can appear blue on Mars" - Yes, it can. And my question was "under what conditions can the sun appear blue?" It failed and continued to fail, even in the presence of guiding hints (But what about Mars?)

Perhaps not much can be concluded from the above test, except that ChatGPT can be coaxed into failure modes. We knew that already, the user interface clearly states it can give wrong answers.

What is fascinating to me is how people seem to convince themselves that a device that sometimes gives wrong answers is somehow going to fix it's underlying algorithm which permits wrong answers to somehow always be correct.

GPT-4 is an improvement, but the tools it uses to improve upon the answers are more like patches on top of the original algorithm. For example, as I believe you said, it generates a math program now to double-check math answers. The downsides of this is that it is still at risk of a small chance of generating the wrong program, and a smaller risk of that wrong program agreeing with its prior wrong answer. For a system that makes errors very infrequently, that's an effective way of reducing errors. But for right now, the common man isn't testing ChatGPT for quality, it's finding answers that seem to be good and celebrating. It's like mass confirmation bias. After the hype dies down a bit, we'll likely have a better understanding of what advances in this field we really have.
> 200K hours? This can't be right. If the engineers are paid $50/hour, that is a cost of $10 million just to create a digital replica of the process?

I don't think that's so farfetched - It was rumoured that Tesla bought a Nissan Leaf to take apart and see why it was cheap, and there are companies that buy products including cars, to tear apart and write reports on materials, components, production techniques, and costs for other companies (couldn't find the example I remember)

As someone who was not born in the US, but went to university and works here, the college admissions process is just totally bonkers.

It seems to drive outcomes that are the opposite of the stated objective.

To think that you can admit a more well-rounded student body by getting them to write essays is ludicrous in the age of essay & admissions consultants.

Just eliminate any legacy preference. Use standardized tests that are worthwhile. If that doesn't give you an equitable mixture of students, then add pre-admission programs targeted at prepping underprivileged kids.
The article doesn't seem to claim that this is the only mechanism, even if the title seems to suggest so.

I sold all of my cryptocurrency about 2 years ago because there was no utility to any of the coins I held. When I was younger I held Bitcoin, then when I grew up I invested in ETH and Chainlink. I waited for years, and nothing happened to the cryptocurrency scene at-large that pushed the needle in it's direction. It was a strictly-inferior way to store my money, when I used it.

Considering the popularity of "custodial wallets" today, I might argue that scamming less-intelligent people is the primary business strategy around crypto.
Basically nothing of that applies to my main devices: Macs, iPads, iPhones.

None of those use CUA (-> the Apple UI guidelines for those are either older (Mac) or newer), keystroke for file applications don't use control, there are no win/super keys, there are no multiple documents using window "panes" (as you can see in any of Apple's applications, for example Apple Terminal uses Tabs, not panes), ...
