Unsurprisingly it's showing what's going . It's usually encouraged when female takes masculine roles but not same other way around if male want to take more of a caregiver role, because men are seen as sole bread earner.
In society females can be much more vocal about what they think and want but suffer little to no consequence.
Also there are huge efforts being made to move females into male spaces they are actively encouraged, but there are rarely anyone who is doing the same for young men or giving them male related advice.
What do you mean? There is a huge difference between putting an ad in a magazine for rich mothers with young kids (content-related) versus putting the same ad in a game that woman plays because her targeting ID identifies her as such (targetted).
The ISC is basically pretty similar to the MIT license.
Git, though, has the somewhat unique problem that its UX does a particularly bad job of explaining itself. Git isn't difficult because of its mind-bending awesomeness, but because the UX sucks. I'm fine with it, thankyouverymuch, but it was rote learning and I watch beginners struggle.
It probably was, but UEFI was not a good answer.

I'd have preferred CoreBoot or OpenFirmware, but the PC industry was too slow to move and let Intel -- still smarting from Microsoft forcing it to adopt AMD's 64-bit x86 extensions -- take control of the firmware.
So the answer to "P=NP?" is "Let's see what mood god is in today"?

Impossible to scale however. Not sure how it is in other EU nations, but Germany in particular loves to put animals as closely together as they can get away with, which is basically in enclosures in which the animals can't move whatsoever.

It's especially egregious because these factories get subventions by animal, so everyone is paying to create these factories from hell - including people that don't eat meat for moral reasons. And no political party sees any issues with that.
Giving "the control of hardware back" is going to be extremely difficult. Just look at the mess that ACPI is: there are lots of notebooks that Linux can not put into/back from hibernation, and here we're talking simply about pausing/resuming devices themselves. What you are proposing means that an OS would have to revert the hardware back to the state that would be compatible with its state at the moment of booting, so that UEFI could manage it correctly. I don't think that's gonna happen.
Close to AGI? It's a different type of search engine (hard to say if better or worse) and has nothing to do with intelligence
My experience when I had a dual boot in the late 90's was that rebooting is such an interruption that you never become fully comfortable on one of the OS. You just stick to the OS you are used to and never really do the switch.

While if don't dual boot you can switch completely to another OS and only use VM or remote desktop for the handful of use cases when you aren't ready yet (and then end ip abandoning them completely as well).
Zero is important because it is the first abstraction. If your notion of numbers includes the idea of zero as a number, then you have broken through the first intellectual barrier of mathematics. Without this, it remains tempting to still consider numbers as existing for the purpose of counting _things_.

But with zero, this idea converges on the same thing. No matter what things you were counting, if you have zero of them, you have the same idea. And so you take a step towards the idea of a number being a concept in its own right, rather than existing purely for the purpose of counting or measurement.

It is the same sort of conceptual freedom that allows you to do things like add a number to a square. To deal with an equation like x + x ^ 2 = 0. If you're stuck with numbers "meaning" something beyond themselves, then you'll never add x to x^2. One is a length, the other an area. They are different objects.

This intellectual leap is one that must be made by all students of mathematics - and many young people do not.
I prefer reading papers on paper, with fountain pen to make notes. It is easier for me to focus on compared to electronics devices (well, I am answering on HN instead of doing things I should be doing)...
Law of excluded middle is a formal logic thing. If you assume law of excluded middle, you can use it for logical deduction. If you don't assume law of excluded middle, you can't. If your axioms are A->B and A then B, and even god can't change that.

In contrast laws of physics are a real world thing, and any omnipotent being can meddle with it, basically by definition.
> It is better to think of a vacuum within air to be similar to a bubble underwater.

I don’t think it is vey similar. That bubble pushes against the water to maintain itself; it manages to do that only because its “push” increases the higher its pressure and it is more compressible than water.

The vacuum, on the other hand, is compressible (if you want to call that so), but its “push” remains zero if you do, so it needs help to push against the air to maintain itself.

That’s why the post your replied to said “vacuums tend to collapse on themselves, I think it might be more costly in structural elements to prevent that?”
I really don't think this is "aggressive". You seem to be saying "I don't like the keyboard sound", which is fine, but overcharacterising isn't necessary. And writing a two paragraph comment about how easy it is to fit in with your preference appears more deliberately aggressive than anything the video does.

> ...But to load it at boot time it absolutely must be done through an initramfs. Is that right?

No, not AFAICS; it is incorrect.

On UEFI the system boots from a FAT32 partition. Put the kernel directly on that FAT32 partition, and any necessary modules such as ZFS, and the kernel can load the ZFS module from FAT32 and then mount root directly without any need for an initramfs.

This is how systemd-boot works.

I am not advocating systemd-boot -- I found it a pain to work with -- but the point is that it's perfectly possible and doable. The initramfs is a bodge and it's time we did away with it. It should only be needed for installation and rescue media.
Devil is in the details. Your source is about top universities, which are highly competitive. Any process that is highly competitive will trend male, which counterbiases for universities in general trending female for decades.

> Since 1980, the female-to-male ratio in two-year college enrollment continued to increase until it hit about 1.4 in 1995, stabilizing at that point. The relative female-to-male ratio in four-year college enrollment, however, increased steadily throughout this time period, reaching 1.3 in the fall of 2019.

https://pnpi.org/women-in-higher-education/

> In Fall 2020, female students made up 58.6% of all postsecondary enrollment.

If you look at the EU, its generally 45/55 to 40/60. But it gets iffy because within the EU, countries' their student populations are quite different. For example, the East Bloc has an outsized ratio of female STEM students because this was very normal in the Soviet Union. This is in large part because scientist wasn't seen as a prestigious job, just like computer scientist was an administrative job in the US in the 60s. That's a different conversation though..

Asia I don't know enough about to speak to with enough accuracy. Especially with how countries there are also very different from each other (say Japan/Korea/Singapore vs China vs Thailand/Vietnam vs Indonesia)

In hindsight, "trending 35/65" would have been a more accurate statement. Thanks for checking me, I've added a correction to the OP :)
This is a huge and weird assumption that this is an underlying motive.

Those are definitely not the same question, NP-hardness has a precise meaning while "hard to solve" is a subjective judgement

The answer is trying to show the absurdity of the question. It's like asking for the time complexity of factoring 120. If there is no input to the algorithm, the answer is always trivial.

And that's the thing. One could make the case that in a world of UBI, copyright diminishes in relevance. If the intent of copyright is to allow people to use capitalism to create wealth via their words so that they can live a "life of the mind" and pursue grand ideas... If UBI gets us the same goal then that does something to the good/harm balance of the temporary monopoly on ideas.

The key point is remembering that copyright isn't some divine right stemming from the muses blessing the author with their own exclusively-owned words; it's a right societies fabricate because we believe it will incentivize people to build new knowledge that eventually benefits everyone. It's that incentivization that's the goal.
Why do you think it's ironic for another highly unequal, exploitative, racist, colonialist empire to also have a yacht class?

> am quite happy to not be building them anymore.

Me too. I go back to within about 3 years of that.

But I expect my distro to handle this for me now.

If the distro compiled and updated the kernel for my hardware then there's be no need for an initramfs.

While initramfs was a simplistic kludge, the UKI idea does not fix it, it wraps a kludge inside a fugly ball of lack of understanding.
This is a good point -- Option<T>is much better in a fn signature for comprehension. This probably clinches it.

Funnily enough, Java 1.8 is what really made me start taking Haskell and languages with better type systems more seriously -- seeing that Option actually deserved to be basically everywhere broke my frame.
I feel that parental leave is a strawman argument used in lieu of true issues. That is - I’ve heard radical feminists use it as a way of showing that they care about mens’ rights, while ignoring education/father/violence issues.
Hmm for most forms we use things like DocuSign, but I suppose there must be some that have to be mailed in. For mail we mostly do parcels and those get either a dedicated label printer, or if they're large products, a dedicated transport.

Things I hadn't immediately thought of as an engineer. Good point!
America requires tons of paper. The uS banking system is appallingly primitive and any reasonably non mundane or international transaction requires in person visits and paperwork.

Canon make very good printers with massive tanks and no online bullshit.

Lasers are really only needed for super high volumes at this point. With megatank printers there is no real cost saving with a laser and they are much more limited. They don’t do good photos and the paper choices are restricted. Worse than that the prints themselves are less robust.

Invest in a large tank printer from a solid non HO brand and it will last decades.

It's a symptom of other dysfunction alright, but mail did and does work, so the superficial answer is: same as it always did?

When I read about banking in the US involving checks and bills, I don't say "the system is collapsing", it's just... an aspect that sucks.

> vague existence claim of a program that cannot be concretely written

It can be concretely written. It's either "return True" or "return False". As of today we don't know which one of the two is this. However our lack of knowledge is not relevant to the question if it's computable or not. Definition of computability doesn't rely on it.

> unless it takes "P==NP" and "P!=NP" as inputs, which would be a tautology.

It doesn't take any inputs at all since none are necessary. It's a constant function. The question of computability isn't relevant for constant functions or for functions with a finite set of possible inputs -- they are computable as switch-case on all possible inputs.

The problem only appears with functions that have an infinite set of possible inputs where the switch-case approach won't work. You need an _algorithm_ to convert inputs to outputs and sometimes this algorithm just can't exists, regardless of how far we've got in proving truthfulness of various mathematical statements.

I get where you're coming from. FWIW, at many points I considered just paying for Webflow but their pricing is just nuts. I'm simply not going to pay ~ $1k per year for them to host my static site with a couple 1000 visitors per month.

If Webflow had a competitor with same functionality and reasonable pricing I'd gladly pay for that.
That's the downside to others. The downside to owning an e-bike, especially a cargo bike, is that they're very attractive to steal. Thieves will go to great lengths to grab an e-bike, especially expensive ones like the cargo variants.

Do you think you deserve compensation for these writings? Why not?
I think it's quite likely that people use their printers far less, but for many people not having any access to a printer at all is unrealistic and/or undesirable.

There are still plenty of example use cases which aren't covered by the existence of QR codes and phone scanning. Documents which need ink signatures. Boarding pass backups so you don't hit disaster when you are running late for the flight and your battery dies. Government agencies which insist on doing things by post. Sending things to non-tech capable relatives or customers who don't know what to do with a PDF. Leaflets and handouts for community meetings. Notices which have to be physically displayed in a building or on a window. Homework assignments for young children.

Some of these you might be able to workaround with some added inconvenience (e.g. carry a spare phone battery). Others are simply impossible. I'm not going to fail to buy a house because I can't comply with the mortgage company's requirement to return a signed deed for example. Much as I rarely use my printer and wouldn't be bothered at all if it stopped being required, I accept that I need to be pragmatic about it.
Lucy Letby: killer or coincidence? Some experts question the evidence
As far as gold standards go for typesystems... ML languages probably take it, with Haskell being the closest to widespread real world use.
There are really two schools of approach to this.

On one hand you have quantitatively driven strategies that try to predict either a price or direction based on various inputs. Here you’re mostly focused on predictive accuracy, and the challenge is in exiting the trade at the right time. This is where a lot of the speed comes into play (what is your predictive horizon, and can you act fast enough to take advantage of the current market prices?).

The other mode of trading tends to focus on structural mispricing in the market. An easy to understand example is an intermarket arbitrage trade where one market’s buyer or seller crosses prices with the opposite side of the market on another exchange. These events permit a trader to swoop in a capture the delta between the two order prices (provided they can get to both markets in time).

As easy opportunity has dried up (markets have grown more efficient as systems have gotten faster, and parties understanding of the market structure has improved) you see some blending of the two styles (this is where another commenter was talking about mixing a traditionally computed alpha with some hardware solution to generate the order), but both come with different technical challenges and performance requirements.
If they were so clever about it, surely they would have taken the pride to mention this in the study.

That's exactly what happened.

My old home HP printer is about 16 years old and still rock solid. If I didn't know any better I would be recommending the brand to everyone I know. Not everyone is as depressingly online as the HN community.
Well it's more like the "security: they want is fundamentally is incompatible with support for ofline use in this case (as long as we have open computing platforms anyway).
They would need to solve that anyway in case 2 or more friends attempt to get in on the same ticket.

Not at all difficult - simply share screen a third device and display the rotating QR-code through e.g. zoom on individual phones. For additional trickery, try to split the group into joining multiple ticket scanning lines and timing the scan of the ticket to be as close as possible to eachother.
I guess the initial page load size is huge on desktop (31MB due to the big added list compared to mobile), because you cannot use lazy loading in flutter via `<img loading="lazy">` or similar?

If there is an option to do that I think it would be nice.
I disagree, there are lots of other countries that have this. Japan recently got rid of floppies, for example[0]. Most of all, germany is full of doomsday thinking and complaints like this one, which i see often here when HN covers esp. german topics

I don't think so. It's a pretty uninteresting property of a function whether or not a particular person happens to know its value for a given input. It does not entail that the function is not computable, if that's what you're suggesting.
There you go: https://github.com/snaplet/postgres-wasm. It should be possible to run it on the server side.
Ok but is it terrible because the service was bad (frequently offline, toner would not be delivered on time, too slow, etc...) or because they changed their minds about a subscription and didn't want to pay anymore, and didn't realize the printer would stop working all together without it (most likely having forgotten this fact a year after purchase)?
Sure, it works with Selenium but every other popular browser works with it as well.

I have an HP Deskjet 2750e, tied to my HP+ account that I started to setup and canceled after getting the printer to a working state. It's now attached via USB to a RPI running CUPS.
