I don't think anyone argues otherwise. Students already motivated can learn how LLMs work. But the OP didn't ask that. As I read it, the question seems to ask how to motivate "most" students by making high school math "more interesting." I read that as a reference to the poor student performance and lack of interest in high school math. How to motivate "most" students has nothing to do with what the few motivated and interested students do in school.

My high school (in the US) offered programming classes that counted as math credits. Very few students took those classes, and quite a few students lost interest in the first few weeks. A handful of us had sufficient motivation to learn how to program, back when that was the next big thing (1970s).

This is quite unfair. A landlord has dues to pay as well and they get charged by their mortgage company if the mortgage payment is late or insurance payment is late.
Standards are meant to be broken, especially when they’re based on outdated assumptions.

I’m glad that Tesla is trying to do that with the 48V auxiliary (non-traction) battery. 48V is just below the Low Voltage threshold for human safety (NEC, NFPA). It’s also 4X the 12V std and still a number cleanly divisible by 3V.

Sometimes first principles design outshines industry standards especially when there are newer reasons.
I’ve signed up for waitlists and bought things from some of them, and I’ve launched products to waitlists I built (and made some sales on launch day).

I think a few things helped with that, but one difference that stands out is where the subscribers came from. Mine were mainly from Twitter or people already reading my blog, so they already knew who I was to some degree and had some reason to believe I could help them. It’s a much harder job to sell to random people who came from an ad, who start off with a lot less trust. Any missteps in the copy/problem you solve/etc are magnified because random people are just looking for any reason to hit the back button.
Ok this is good to know. Man I thought for a moment flutter will be something Google doesn't kill but no. They are such shareholder automated processes driven that they are imploding from the inside. I'll switch to react native unfortunately. Flutter is definitely better tech but betting on any product from Google is a death knoll.
> A larger, more complex object will be more expensive than a smaller, simpler object.

That assumes the larger device will be more complex when it’s often simpler to make something larger than it is to scale it down. At the extreme end the sun is vastly simpler than any reactor design we are considering, those are complex because we need to operate on a smaller scale.

Hell we could have built a combined fusion/fission reactor in the 1960’s using Hydrogen bombs and a large enough underground body of water to absorb the energy. Would need to be huge, but not that complicated.
Just like any social network platform, I think people would do it simply for likes and upvotes and the dopomine that comes with it, but yeah, I'm thinking of adding some sort of points system like karma, reputations, etc.
I now how the experiment was conducted. That wasn't the question either. Read carefully what i have cited. There is nothing about what you have said.
If you specify something, you ought to be very precise :-)
My impression is they were excited about the rate that people were joining the waitlist more than the number on the list. They were assuming that if n people were joining the waitlist every month they would get n * 10% new customers per month post launch.
Why is it a maths problem and not a math problem?

this is still beyond me how EU treats iOS and iPadOS as two different operating systems. iOS was designated gatekeeper at the start of the whole DMA thing, iPadOS was just recently.
It does help. Words mean less than action. If random people are killed from a division due to decisions "many layers above" it means that division is really not valued. Google will kill off flutter in the future. One should not be building long term apps on it. React native and react luckily have been taken over by the open source community and will live long. Shame though, I really liked flutter. Fuck Google.

GraphQL Live Query, How To?
Is there an official production-ready solution for getting the 'Live Query' unofficial feature working? (I'm not talking about 'subscription')

Simplifying Linux Command Line with GPT-CLI
Yes, imagine data analysis scenarios like Excel users or Jupyter notebooks, or operational investigations like user 360's and security incidents. Just now defaulting to natural language and connected to your data silos and a variety of analytics tools & libraries.

We try to make the generated code and backing data explainable. Users are figuring out the scenario by having the AI go ahead for them, and automating much of the debug loop in typical coding and investigations, so folks can focus more on the analysis, less on syntax, schemas, libraries, and be more ambitious on each step.

Importantly, it is still kind of like making a much more accessible Jupyter notebook or editable excel/doc, vs a linear chat session. Instead of generating the whole notebook and it being buggy and you starting over (~= Devin, or notebook.io's ChatGPT plugin), you drive it forward only 1-3 cells at a time, and as it is an interactive document so you can edit those, go to the next, or non-destructively edit earlier ones. In contrast, ChatGPT's data assistant deletes cells below the current edit, which would stink in a normal data env.

There are other differences, but from a perspective of using genAI well, we budget 3-60s for genAI assisting in 1-3 steps, aiming for 10-100x productivity wins and a lot more peace of mind during it. Taking 1-3 steps forward may mean the AI takes 3-10 internally due to backtracking / CoT / etc

We could let the system take 100 turns, and have interesting experiments there such as around security investigations, but the use cases become more niche due to cascading errors => reliability.
There are computations, the outcomes of which are unknown unknown until actually done.
The lack of attention to safety in driving drives me nuts every time I drive.

Speed limits that have absolutely zero enforcement; so much so, that attempting to actually drive at the limit is a road hazard!

Road designs that encourage maximum throughput and maximum distraction (forget phones; injury lawyer billboards are distracting by design).

I've even seen folks run red lights without impunity here in Houston. Ive seen police here speed WHILE ON THEIR PHONES.

Any politician who campaigns on improving driver safety is raked over the coals. Many mayors have gotten roiled over implementing red light or speed cameras or lowering speed limits in cities despite well established evidence that these changes reduce road deaths.

Driving is systemically failed, IMO.
very sad, i hope they will be find alive. but i fear it won't be possible.
Research: Podcasts are attracting an ever-growing and highly engaged audience
I just finished G. H. Hardy's celebrated "A Mathematician's Apology". He describes "useful" math such as calculus as "on the whole, rather dull", and contrasts it with the "real" math of Euler, Fermat, and Gauss, which he finds "almost wholly 'useless'"; he adds that the great achievements of applied math--relativity and quantum mechanics--are "almost as useless as number theory".

He was prudent to add "at present [1940], at any rate": the phone on which I am typing wouldn't work at all without number theory, relativity, and quantum mechanics!

Back in the days when playing Steve Jackson's Killer was less likely to get you arrested, I organized a pretty large CTF event at a local park. It was a long, thin park that ran along the river, and the team bases were about a kilometer apart. Standard Killer weapons could be used: water guns, polaroid cameras, water balloons, etc. Being 30 years ago, I don't remember the exact rules, but I think everybody had a couple lives. It was a lot of fun, extremely exhausting, but what I remember the most was that my teenage planning capacity had not accounted for the fact that there would be a lot of people picnicking in this narrow park, who would really not appreciate a bunch of nerds running around pretending to have a war. Oh, and dogs.

No. Why use "widgets" and "electronic flow meters" as analogies? The average person knows even less about those than mortgages.

Here's my attempt:

Mortgages are not primarily a service that a bank provides to homeowners. They are akin to a farmer growing crops to sell to a food processing company. The food processing company (like institutional investors) doesn't want to deal with the complexities of farming (like dealing with individual homeowners). Instead, they prefer to buy large quantities of raw produce (bundles of mortgages) and process it into packaged food products (guaranteed cashflows). Just as the food processing company focuses on producing and selling packaged food rather than farming, pension funds focus on managing payouts to retirees rather than issuing individual mortgages. Banks, like farmers, have to grow (originate) the raw product (mortgages) to sell it in bulk to these large institutions, thus transforming the upfront cash into a steady stream of future revenue.
I often wonder if Britain and America had not conspired to overthrow Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh, where Iran might be today.
In Ireland, where Uber has its headquarters for Europe (also support staff), unlicensed taxis have been banned since 2004 or so. They recently started doing taxi booking and payment via the app, but it's all regular taxis. All taxis also have an identical pricing structure, so you can easily tell what one will cost ahead of time.

There have been competing apps for that here for a long time.

Everything. But what is the real alternative? Renting, with the risk of rent going up and become unbearable?

I know quite a few “mindless borrowers” who did ultimately “win”: their house price increased a lot and so they are now sitting on a house which has a much higher value when compared to their mortgage. They could sell and realize a huge profit.

Basically, the system invites people to gamble.
I’m a little skeptical of this story - but that quote is not evidence that she used a search engine. She could mean searching and checking out books in the library apps or on the library web site.
I would prefer if it can give the number 5 instead of five. Also I don’t like to tell it what exactly it got wrong, just that it got it wrong. Saying things like think step by step, focus on rules etc is all fair game, while saying “keyboard is the second word, not third”, imo is not. I tried quite a bit when I saw this example on twitter and could never get it to work.

You can only throw breadcrumbs on the water, you can't make ducks eat them.

The strategy in my state was to have a standard curriculum, on top of that all manner of things were tossed out to high school as bait to catch students with an aptitude or interest in languages, law, physics, chemistry, biology, applied trade skills, etc.

Can you motivate all high school students studying { X } with Y? - No.

Will that motivate some? Possibly - it's worth a shot.
I've managed to remove dandelions from of my yard by mechanically digging them up by the roots (also did the same to buckhorn --- next on the schedule is broadleaf plantain) after one year where I just tore off each plant at the surface and then put a piece of rock salt on the opening of the root.

My daughter was quite put out when there was a contest in her biology class for bringing in the longest dandelion stem.

Are you denying the fact that a “non conforming loan” by definition means it isn’t eligible for Freddie and Fannie backing?

I’ve had 5 first mortgages in my lifetime and only one was “conforming”.

My latest one was a unit in a condotel where I live the majority of the year. No government institution would ever back and no income verification loan on a mixed use commercial/personal secondary home.

Quantum Breakthrough Could Charge Batteries in a Snap
I understand your moral position. But you must realize that's not what copyright does. That's wishful thinking, the sort often manifest in modern written works on the copyright page where the publisher helpfully writes, "The moral right of the author has been asserted". Begging the question: What moral right, other than the legal copyright that was already asserted separately?

Note the irony, too: It's the publisher writing about morality on behalf of the author. It's the publisher that would give consent for any AI-training use in your concept of the proper legal and moral order of things. The author probably doesn't know much about copyright law, but wants the work monetized as much as possible, because they like having a house and eating food, and sure, creating more content sometimes. To that end, they've assigned copyright to their publisher. Or independent creators would have to create a union and assign licensing power to the union leadership. But again, only licensing to big tech, because nobody else could afford it.

Also see the ETA: paragraph in GP, regarding the difficulty of judging whether simple works are copyrightable, or whether complex works have actually been reproduced in a copyright-violating way.

This feels like an argument over angels on the head of a pin. Look at the markets. They're all-in on AI. Big tech (and big startup) AI models will move forward, no matter what licensing agreements between publishers and AI behemoths, or copyright exceptions, end up being necessary. The only question is whether others who don't have that power or money should be able to try to train their own models (admittedly probably much lower-parameter, because they don't have datacenters full of H100s) on datasets that are at least in the same ballpark.
Why are you special-casing the PFD? I could equally say "providing polling places, ballot counting, and all the other democratic infrastructure – which are now a political must-have – has required cutting public services such as the PFD", and it'd be just as true.

If the knock-on economic effects of the PFD are putting more money into the system than it's taking out, it's obviously worth keeping (even when money is tight, unless that's expected to be temporary and certain other conditions are met). If the PFD is valued directly, then it's also worth keeping, regardless of the economic effects. We don't kill the elderly once they retire, even though that policy is of greater cost to the economy than benefit.

The naïve "it costs money that could be spent on other things" claim can be used to criticise any policy. The real question isn't whether it's good or bad, because we know there are circumstances that it's good. The question is, under what circumstances is UBI bad?

UBI seems to work in theory, so I'm mighty suspicious that it seems to work universally in practice. ("Economic theory just doesn't work that well," I continue to insist.) But the only failure mode I've seen, anywhere, is "it costs money" (e.g. https://www.employment-studies.co.uk/news/universal-basic-in...). All other criticisms appear hypothetical, so I don't get why we pay them so much heed.
yup, may i know which programming language do you guys use on which cron runs ?
I guess the google team wanted to create an experience that is identical to the console gaming experience, in the sense that the users don’t have to adjust any settings before playing. Because of this requirement they couldn't use windows vms, because they sometimes have some issues like the game not being displayed in full screen. I also guess that Google probably saw some cost saving potential by using Linux instead of Windows.

> If anything the hunters are pushing back against it, especially with regards to moose

I’m not sure how you jumped to the restraint some hunters are showing when deciding not to shoot moose (älg) in Sweden - it’s totally unconnected to the gratuitous and stupid shooting of wolves and especially the endangered lynx.

They’ve decided to hold back hunting moose because they’re worried about how the hunt will be in the future, not some enlightened ecological concern. I know this because it’s a common discussion topic amongst friends and relatives who hunt.
AP story says:

>A helicopter carrying Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi suffered a “hard landing” on Sunday, Iranian state media reported, without elaborating.

I don't understand how the author goes from 3.8 WAF(Write Amplication Factor) to 2.0 WAF and gets a 30x increase in endurance. I'd expect about 2x from that.

From what I can see, he seems to be taking the 120TBW that the OEM warranties on the drive for the initial result, but then using the NAND's P/E cycles spec for the final result, which seems suspicious.

The only thing that I could be missing is the NAND going to pSLC mode somehow increases the P/E cycles drastically, like requiring massively lower voltage to program the cells. But I think that would be included in the WAF measure.

What am I missing?
Iberian lynx live in open habitats are diurnal and can be spot in their favorite places to rest at day by the national park rangers. There are tours for lynx watching in Doñana park. Not a guaranteed sight, but lots of tourists still have luck each year. Eurasian, being forest and mountain inhabitants, are much more difficult to watch.

I mentioned the cardboard method simply because it's the most primitive thing people do and it still works.

While a nice simplistic answer it's likely not what's going on here. There is more here than "People just aren't good at thinking".

If your statement were true, then you'd be forced to say that the following statement is also obviously true:

"If the Nazis won World War II, then everybody would be happy"

The fact that you can rightfully say that sentence is false, means that your comment above about implication and "if" statements is wrong.[1] Language is more complex then you're giving it credit.
