> The statistically invalid time-windowing games the public health agencies all played in which people who had taken vaccines were classed as unvaccinated

As I have just replied to the other commenter, the ONS data he appears to object to categorises various "vaccinated" categories starting immediately after vaccination. The regulator's reply to Fenton makes this clear: https://osr.statisticsauthority.gov.uk/correspondence/ed-hum...

I assume this reply is what you refer to when you say that the ONS admit the data cannot be used that way. However, since that reply, the ASMR calculation now uses data linked to the 2021 census which covers around 91% of the population. Paul Mainwood graphed the ASMRs here: https://twitter.com/PaulMainwood/status/1627979309812965381

I see no evidence here that being vaccinated makes you more likely to die, which is what the original thread was about.

It shows that people who do bad things might have plausible reasons. It makes me think about how we usually only see the negative actions and not the circumstances that lead to them. It also considers whether most of us might react similarly, or if the real villains are those who manipulate others into doing these bad things.

SwiftData, as the successor to Core Data, has introduced a multitude of innovative and modern design ideas. Despite its availability for some time now, many developers have yet to adopt it in their projects. This situation is partly due to SwiftData’s higher requirements for the operating system version. Additionally, because SwiftData is not yet mature enough in some functionalities, developers might choose to continue using Core Data even if their operating system version meets SwiftData’s requirements. Can we integrate some of SwiftData’s excellent design philosophies and ingenious implementations into the practical use of Core Data? This article aims to explore how to introduce elegant and safe concurrency operations similar to those of SwiftData into Core Data, implementing a Core Data version of @ModelActor.
Yep. I've seen it happen. If you have too many clueless people at the top, the tail will wag the dog, so to speak. The slacker's peers often don't care as long as the slacking doesn't cause more work them. It's a "don't ask, don't tell" situation all around.
There are a few symbolic logic entailment engines that run atop OWL the Web Ontology Language, some flavors of which which are rough equivalent of Cycs KBs. The challenge though is the underlying approaches are computationally hard so nobody really uses them in practice, plus the retrieval language associated with OWL is SPARQL which also has little traction.
Having a foreign key should probably be a hint to the planner that it should create a cross-table correlation estimate on the source and destination columns. This is about join cardinality estimation, not having an index.
Never heard that in that context. Can you cite an example?
If the court finds you guilty, then by definition within the system you did it.

It doesn't mean you actually did, but it does mean the system says you did.

Which is the point of my comment. It doesn't mean it actually makes sense in real life, but it's why the system does what it does.

And the reason why the system will prosecute kids like adults sometimes - the nominal reason is because they don't think it's worth giving them a pass either due to the severe nature of the crime, or because of the lack of contrition of the accused.

If they're actually innocent, then per the system they should get zero penalty eventually regardless of how they are prosecuted.

We know that being held in an adult jail while awaiting trial is a pretty severe penalty in fact of course, which is why it eventually got thrown out that he got treated that way. Plenty of adults get stuck in jail for years while awaiting trial, then get released and theoretically suffered no penalty either. But we also know that is bullshit. No clear better alternatives (except bail) have shown themselves however.

If the kid had been caught on tape murdering a bunch of other kids and still claimed he was innocent, then no one would be objecting that he be put in an adult jail while awaiting trial though. Since putting someone that violent in a juvenile facility is making it as dangerous as an adult one.

Judges have wide discretion to make these calls, and this judge clearly screwed up.

But that's the how and the why.
I agree.

But all of your examples are 'real'. Real physical things that can impact someone materially. Chemicals, products.

Lot of the 'scare' things are just 'ideas'. Should we outlaw ideas is the problem. That is basically how anti-communism works, 'communism' is an idea that the right calls a 'mind virus' that we should ban because it can infect people.

Of course, super hard to tell what is freedom of speech these days. I've been hearing the right scream about freedom of speech for years now, and all of sudden with Gaza they want to round people up if anybody criticizes Israel.
Yes. Trading costs and high spread are inherently wasteful. Reducing both of those and increasing liquidity is an unalloyed good.

Seems ripe for a "project sharding" platform that splits your project into multiple identical backend projects that each have <1M annual revenue and <1M of your users.

Would save you from the unnecessary calls and coffee chats, you just pay N * subscription fee and get on with your life.

You could probably also use part of the revenue to buy treasury bonds and automagically pay the subscription fees, and it would be a closed intervention-free system.

I play retro games regularly, and as good as emulation is, there are tons of old fast paced games that are unplayable for me on modern TVs due to input lag.

Recently was playing Zelda 1 on the NES when the game crashed and deleted my save half way through the 2nd quest. Tried to play it on an emulator and on the switch, and both felt clunky compared to playing on the NES. Could probably get through it, but it wouldn't have been fun.
Many companies are afraid of being sued or "ruining their reputation" through too many firings. Instead, they waste much more on wasted salaries and ruin their reputation internally by keeping useless people around.

Why are you referring to yourself in plural? Regarding your question, you can literal copy paste what you quoted into your favorite search engine and you will get a ton of hits. But I'm sure you are well aware of it already, since you are a frequent commenter on cultural war issues here on HN.

>> What does that have to do with denying or rejecting science?

Since when firing faculty staff for ideological nonsense has nothing to do with rejecting science?

>> Also, sometimes people get fired for legitimate reasons; the fact that they were fired is not a sign of problems.

This type of argument where you write some truism to downplay victims is not cool.

>>I'm sure you know that there are powerful tides of misinformation and disinformation on the Internet - about climate change and vaccines, for example. Lots of repetition doesn't make something true. In fact, science is founded on the opposite: One person's verifiable facts are believed before the entire world's repetition.

Of course, but you can say that about anything. So what is the point of your argument? Why did you even bother to comment on something you by your own admission don't know exists and couldn't even be bothered to look it up on the internet.
I think I was 15 when I got a beeper? It was translucent green plastic, clipped inside the baggy khaki pants of my school uniform. Surfing the web to find lists of beeper codes, trading beeper numbers with friends, sending them "secret" numeric messages. Learning about hacking and how to intercept or transmit beeper messages (and not being able to, but still finding it cool).

Nobody thought me or any of my private school friends were drug dealers for having beepers. They just thought the beepers were a distraction, and not allowed in class. I don't remember them being banned but they might have been eventually.
Nah, sadly this most likely will not work with Q1/Q1.5 implementations - initially I was playing with monte carlo approximations (before I arrived at bucketMul), and the convergence was very slow for binary/ternary networks.

Or, in simpler terms - if you have just ones and zeroes, and minus ones, you can remove zeroes from calculations, but that's it. No good method to figure out which ones are more important than the other ones.

Also, there are no bits left to store positional information when bucketing.

There are some paths that could be explored in this fashion, but it would require a redesign of the algorithm from the ground up.
Fair or not, this is the idea behind 'no contest' pleas in court.

But that doesn't seem to be what you are describing in terms of using incrementing indices and adding occurrence counts.

Not enough people know that a hundred years ago there were genuine airship aircraft carriers flying around, launching biplanes and then having them land back on the airship while it was still flying!

How do you land a biplane on a Zeppelin? You fly up underneath it, match your speed with that of the airship, then hook onto a landing frame lowered beneath the aircraft and let it lift you back onboard.

I gave a talk about Zeppelin history back in 2008, and recently rediscovered the slides and audio and turned them into a YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omobajJmyIU

It has images of the biplane landing mechanism at 3m57s.

In fairness, it's a good heuristic. Most Christian apologetics are just less poetic subsets of the Book of Job, but their authors act like they have some new and exciting insight that will prove Christianity 100% for sure this time. It's a total waste of time to engage.

C.S. Lewis's works are the exception, not the rule, since there's actually something there to engage with. Plus, he's just a good author.

GP refers to the controversy around how you should hold an iphone so it doesn't lose reception. First few versions had a receiving system which could be easily interfered with by not holding it right (shorting notches on the outer rim) if you were used to hold a phone at the top, i.e. palm at your ear (vs cheek). Jobs suggested to not do that.
I think there's a human sense of global experience. I do miss some stuff that, by all measures, is bad. I still miss them, they make for a strange blend on noise, curves, sensations and limitations. It's another plane of judgement entirely, one that is a bit less reductionist.

I'm suggesting that's the way grown-ups should act in a society, within limits. The main point that seems to get lost is that, globally, I'm saying the upside of this tactic is far outweighed by the downside. There's a weird abstraction that this discussion displays related to psychological distance that minimizes that downside. And, putting aside moral arguments because they can be debated forever, there is a legal concept related to proximate cause that somebody has a duty to avoid those actions if it is foreseeable that they would cause an injury. So while not legally applicable in a case that crosses borders, it is certainly an acceptable concept.

E.g., if you are on the phone negotiating with a kidnapper and I snatch the phone, tell the kidnapper to go fuck themselves and hangup, I'm probably liable for injuries to the victim.

What they have found is that people don't want to take a job in Detroit. Even though the cost of living is so much lower.

Ford is banking on the fact once someone sees the rebuilt campus of the Depot and the buildings around it that their opinion will be changed. You can live downtown and either walk or bike to that campus. There will be self-driving shuttles taking you out to the Ford complex in Dearborn if you need to attend a meeting there.

You're near sports stadiums, theatre and music venues. One of the Ford buildings near the depot is full of mobility startups and a Techstars program.

The alternative is what General Motors did in buying Cruise and actually being in San Francisco. It cost them much more money and I ask you the question, how is that working out for them?

What killed Quora for me was that they decided to prioritize quantity of questions over quality of questions, and as I recall, they even set up incentive programs to reward people for asking as many questions as possible.

The site was inundated with repetitive low-effort questions, often with false premises that seemed intentionally crafted to provoke people. The crappy questions drowned out the interesting ones that had previously made me a regular visitor.
Saying "human shouldn't fly to space" is like saying "we shouldn't build particle accelerators or sequence DNAs". It's purely uneducated point of view, which doesn't cost much. No reason for depression at all.
It isn't difficult at all, it is just a matter of hanging to the side of the bike while pushing it to the other side. Rounded tyres do not make the bike turn either since both of them lean at the same angle and thus have a similar effective circumference. The same happens when you cycle with a strong side wind, you'll lean towards the wind to keep the bike from being blown over. The way you enter the leaning position is different though since you're not leaning away from the bike, instead you (unconsciously) make a slight turn towards the wind to get the bike to lean.
>Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray's case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect. I call these the "wet streets cause rain" stories. Paper's full of them. In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.

This was during a time when historical class divisions were still in play. There was real distance between the upper classes and everyone else.

I see! I guess I don’t understand why the developer would bother with their own store if the App Store now allows emulators, and the Delta app is free - but I guess this was only a recent change, maybe allowed by Apple purely as a way to try to stop people going to alt stores?

I guess maybe the developer feels it’s their duty to follow the alt store thing through to keep pressure on Apple? Or maybe they stand to make money (either now or in future with other apps) from their store?
In my US city, it is specifically illegal to ride a bike, escooter, or similar on the sidewalks. I rarely see children biking on the sidewalks -- they stick to the bike paths.

I really wish that the police would enforce the ban better, though. Accidents on the sidewalks are pretty common, and I've even been yelled at by bicyclists for daring to walk on the sidewalk.
