Music theory deals with the harmonic series, which studies the motion of sound waves [1]. Sound waves are physical, and are affected by the matter and density of the particles they are traveling in. To understand it deeply, you need to get into the behavior of solids and gases, which is chemistry, something useful to baking.

> Don't see how it can "implode" -- the pensions would just get smaller.

Two problems with this:

First, it will get small enough that you won't have a retirement and will work till you die.

Second, reducing pensions tends to be quite unpopular, and when chasing profits for the current quarter, CFO's don't care about the unsustainability of pensions decades down the road. By the time they have to deal with it, it's too late.

Oregon still has a defined benefits pension for its workers, and the problem is here and now. Small towns cannot afford to hire more firefighters, police, etc as their population grows because more and more of the money they have is going into paying out the defined pensions. They keep getting around this problem by taking out more loans to sustain those pensions. Despite the problem being now, they cannot politically reduce benefits for new hires.

You do know of course that they asked to clone her voice. And when she said no did it anyway, then asked again immediately before release, and then Sam tweeted that it was her?
When is something a new species isn't really defined is it? There is some gray area? The whole Horse/Donkey/Mule situation. We can bread cows, when would a cow be so different that it is not a cow. That would take a long time, but I don't think it is impossible through breading.

Maybe the problem here is the term 'eugenics' itself? There is too much baggage and different interpretations from its use during different time periods..

I think there are people today that would just use the word Eugenics to mean "Scientist doing gene type stuff to make superhumans".

We can bread humans just like cows.

So, Is there a modern term for human breading to increase 'desired attributes'.

Some modern term for doing this in the realm of modern science, but that someone potentially could do for 'Nazi-like' goals of a better human? Like when a Chinese scientist uses CRISPR on a human, what would that be called? Forget arguments about fitness, or is it a new species, just using CRISPR to do something like give someone extra fingers or better eye-sight.
I'm confused by this idea that 'testing' is a single thing that you can 'shift'. Testing is part of each step of envisaging, specifying, designing, implementing, shipping, supporting, updating, maintaining (and I'm sure I've missed a few) a product.
Ok, and how often does an average person hear Scarlett's voice that they would recognize her voice when they hear a random voice? This isn't a situation where someone hears a Scarlett voice sample, and then compares it to Sky. This is, someone has heard Scarlett randomly in movies over the past 20 years and then recognizes Scarlett as Sky.

Which, given the fact that the voice actor for Sky has put out a statement stating that her voice has never been compared to Scarlett's in real life, makes me think that people are just hallucinating that Sky sounds like Scarlett. For what it is worth, I listened to them side by side(before OpenAI put out a statement by the voice actor) and they are not the same voice.
Thank you. At the moment I'm clutching at any straw I can find. I'll take some solace that it might turn out better, and I'll watch for it, but I'm not in any position to pin hopes as yet - that way would lie disaster, I think.
How hard would it be to have a colour screen?
The biggest pain point isn't technical, it's misalignment of incentives in provider organizations. Interoperability standards have existed for years and are widely implemented in commercial and open-source products and online services. Some of these may be a bit expensive or difficult to use but they work well enough, at least for common use cases.

The problem is that most providers still work on a fee-for-service basis, billing payers (insurers) and patients for individual line items. There's no line item billing code for improving clinical data quality or sharing patient records with other authorized organizations. So they mostly do the bare minimum necessary to comply with government regulations and payer coverage rules.

For example, every doctor is supposed to have a Direct Secure Messaging address listed in NPPES by now so that they can securely email patient records to each other. Every major EHR supports this standard and it can also be used through HISP online portals. But a lot of doctors still have no clue how to do this and haven't registered their address in NPPES (or misunderstood the instructions and put in their own personal Hotmail email address or something). So, they still end up sending faxes.

The situation may eventually improve with the shift to value-based care but this will be a slow process.

The goal of involving "smarter" agg technology should be to allow more complex agricultural methods without increasing manual workload too much. There seems to be a lot of ideas around how diversity can be utilized to increase both sustainability and yield. But there seems to be a long uphill battle against mono cultures before reaching some kind of disruptions since the margins are so thin.

I think you're right about the reason for the veto powers of the world's super powers at the UN Security Council. It's a pragmatic, though unjust, way of ensuring that they participate in the UN at all. Unfortunately, even so, they often ignore UN Security Council decisions even if they happen to pass - like the USA recently allowing the Israel-Gaza ceasefire resolution to pass, then immediately turning around and absurdly claiming that a UN security council resolution is non-binding. So even like, it's unclear how much the system actually works.

However, I don't agree that this means the ICJ or ICC should just not give decisions that they can't enforce. Ultimately these courts stand as unbiased observers on the world stage, and their opinions can be used by the countries making up the UN to guide their own actions. Ideally, the world's media should also pay close attention and guide its own reporting as well based on the decisions (and rationale for those decisions).

Much like the UN's climate panel, there is real value in having a panel of domain experts present an informed, unbiased, opinion on world matters, even if they can't directly enforce anything.

That ultimately depends not upon the actual performance or the code, but the person. I have been writing software for a very long time and in that time I have seen many people complain about performance and simultaneously measure nothing. In most cases performance is just something for people to whine about when its not them doing the work and suddenly not worth the effort when its up to them to write the performance improvements.

If you can solve for that entitlement problem you will have found your own answer to this riddle. As for my own code where I know I will always be doing the work myself increases in performance are almost always worth the effort, because the result always saves me tremendous time later and clean code is solved through some thought exercise around new organization of the code artifacts.

Calling it a "moral panic" feels almost offensively wrong to me.

McDonald's is very legitimately a serious problem in America today. Obesity and related conditions- Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, etc are at mind boggling epidemic levels. Americans today are living shorter, sicker lives than their parents despite tremendous improvements in medicine, working safety, automobile safety and less smoking almost entirely due to obesity related conditions. Childhood obesity is setting millions of children down a path of suffering before they're old enough to understand that they're being harmed or having the agency and autonomy to correct it.

This isn't a "moral panic" over something harmless like kids playing dungeons and dragons or listening to rock and roll, this is arguably the largest health and wellbeing concern in America today. If anything, as a society we probably have too much moral panic about stigmatized things like opioids and guns that impact a pretty small percent of people and have not enough concern about the unfortunately normalized things like 3/4ths of people being overweight and 4/10 being obese.
All homes use at least some hot water for showers. In many climates they can use a lot of energy for heating which means a very large tank could be useful in winter.
That translation makes no sense. There's nothing in there that allows Google to deploy their own private keys and certificate on people's servers.

> This [well protected] certificate must both be issued from a trust hierarchy [which isn't Google and]

You should check out the issuer on the google.com certificate :)

Also, certificates are public data. They're not meant to be "well protected", they're sent to everybody connecting to the website. Maybe that's the misunderstanding? The private key is not issued by the certificate authority, it's issued by the server's operator. The CA only ever sees the public key.

I actually didn't know this. We've had some teething issues _building_ in docker, but we actually run our services in containers. I'm sure a few hours of banging my head against a wall would be worth it here.

> including running your tests,
"thankfully", we use maven which means that our tests are part of the build lifecycle. It's a bit annoying because our CI provider has some neat parallelism stuff that we could lean on if we could separate out the test phase from the build phase. We use docker-compose inside our builders for dev dependencies (we run our tests against a real database running in docker) but I think they should be our only major issues here.

But, Thanks for the heads up.

Eat that for lunch and dinner plus a McMuffin, coffee, and apple pie for breakfast and you’re at 2,030 calories.

Yea, grayscale definitely impacts the syntax highlighting, as many of the colors end up pretty dark.

It works, though, and I have coded a bit on it. My only criticism would be that the copy-pasting is a little clunky, at least with JuiceSSH. Maybe other apps would be better at it.

Completely disagree - convex collision detection is a neatly solved problem. SAT [0] is implementable in a couple of hours, and GJK [1] is a really neat algorithm that takes a ltitle more than SAT to implement. For optimising collision detection there's some spatial partitioning [2] algorithms that work really well.

> Most traditional provider orgs don't care about open source

Depends who you're talking to - from our experience CTOs of large provider orgs love the open source aspect (generally anyone with a tech team). Smaller orgs with no tech team don't care as much, you're right, but we also support them through a no-code provider dashboard.

the real economic issue is which is cheaper, people or robots?

the real social issue is you must meddle with the self-development of said people in order to keep it cheap, simply put you must make sure those people stay poor. in modernity this happens across countries (i.e. my theory that countries as a whole are kept poor). I call that practice neocolonialism
I might be dumber than average, but I had a hard time understanding Pratt parsing, with its usage of 'nud' and 'led', and this article links to a much clearer explanation of precedence climbing, without the arcane and obtuse names: https://eli.thegreenplace.net/2012/08/02/parsing-expressions...

Took me an hour from reading this article to adding precedence to my hand-written parser. There's a lot of other articles that try to demystify Pratt parsing, but then they choose Rust or Java and hide what is basically a 10-line long algorithm into signal noise such as multiple classes and five functions. Simplified:

expression(int min_precedence) {
parse_atom();

while ((tok = peek()) != TOKEN_EOF) {
if (operator_precedence(tok) < min_precedence) {
break;
}

int next_min_precedence = is_left_associative(tok) ? precedence + 1 : precedence;

// process binary operator. Recurse using `expression(next_min_precedence)`
}
}

That's all there is to it. I'm happy I don't have any mention of 'nud' and 'led' in my code.

That the observed health impacts—the liver like one of a heavy drinker, particularly—were a consequence of the fast food and not, you know, being a heavy drinker.

These are very different claims:

(1) Eating fast food exclusively gives you the liver of a heavy drinker, or

(2) Heavy drinking plus eating fast food exclusively gives you the liver of a heavy drinker.

The second is also far less surprising than the first, and says a lot less about fast food.

Any time the code you're developing can't be run without some special magic computer (that you don't have right now), special magic database (that isn't available right now), special magic workload (production load, yeah...), I predict the outcome is going to be crappy one way or another.
