> Why would someone who wants to be taken seriously as a scientist pose in front of something like that?

She was probably asked to, knew that the photographer probably has a much better idea of what the publication wanted than she did, and so did what was asked.

She would not have worried about it making it hard to take her seriously because she almost certainly knows that everyone who she needs to have take her seriously has seen hundreds of similar articles with their accompanying similar photos and know how that works. Many have probably themselves been in "whiteboard of equations" shots or the also popular "in front of overstuffed bookshelf" shots.

> and heavily reverse-branched systems like the DC Metro or NYC Subway struggle to make even 20TPH.

I find this really interesting that is seems to be the limit for "big-boy" complicated subway systems, while there are many very complicated smaller systems that achieve much more. For example, a lot of the german Stadtbahn systems run somewhat long trains (up to 80m), run using conventional signalling systems underground (so not on-sight, which would allow for a much higher throughput). Naively I'd assume the tram-style segments and frequent at-grade crossings would make this much worse, but apparently not.

For example, Stuttgart (https://download.vvs.de/Stadtbahn_Liniennetz.pdf, https://gleisplanweb.eu/show.php?Map=Stuttgart&Index=1&Heigh...) currently runs 27 tph between Stadtbibliothek and Olgaeck, with plans to run 30 tph without any upgrades, and 30 tph between Staatsgalerie and Stöckach (additionally even running the U11 for events) without any significant issues and quite a complex network with many flat junctions outside the underground sections. The DC Metro has much less complicated branching/reverse-branching patterns.
Real expedition mountaineering is definitely not a lightweight endeavor even if there's more high fill down and other better warmth/weight ratio clothing. It's more about trimming a few pounds off the weekend (or longer) hiker/camper's weight budget.

I don't, anyone is free to animate their own versions of public domain material and sell it? What's weird about that? Perhaps you don't understand how copyright law functions, but Disney has no copyright in the underlying fable.
If you are making a new API that cannot serve the needs of older users, then you are basically saying to your old users that you would rather they leave. At the least, you are signalling that you are inclined to give them more work. Don't be surprised when they decide that their migration isn't from your old service to your new one, but from your old service to a competitor.

Note that this is not the same as saying, "if you want to use the new features, you have to do the work to tell us more about what you are doing by using the new api." More, you can have some restrictions. But, at large, the view you are espousing reminds me of the blog by Yegge about Google's deprecation policy. (Link: https://steve-yegge.medium.com/dear-google-cloud-your-deprec...).

I'm sympathetic to the idea that some APIs are terrible and are best redone. I have seen far too many redone APIs that do not service existing user's needs and that resolve into a complete disaster. In almost all cases, it is because the team doing the work thought that it was best to offload all thoughts of how to migrate onto every other team that was calling to them. You think it would be a lot of work to make a facade/proxy/whatever you want to call it layer. You aren't wrong. But largely what you have done is shifted that work to every single caller you have.

I just want to point out that anyone who tries and make arguments about the rare earth or the uniqueness of our solar system based off of observed exoplanets and solar systems should note that due to time and technical limitations we almost exclusively focus on M-type red dwarf stars which shouldn't be used to determine what typical solar systems and planets exist around G-type(sun like stars) or even K-type(the second most common star type) which collectively make up about 20% of stars in our galaxy.

But if we had multiple JWST like telescopes and one dedicated towards observing G and K type stars we could get a better understanding.
It's the timing that seems odd.

This is all political grandstanding. I say this as a proponent of Nuclear power usage. Energy independence is critical for too much of the world that does not currently have it. Coal is horrible in so many ways and really needs to be displaced. I don't like pollution and don't think wind/solar are the end all, be all solution. In the end, this isn't a plan so much as a rough idea without enough detail to come close to success.

The US is having a rough time spinning up production on new plants. I can only imagine starting from even further back. It may be better or worse, but at least different.

Don't be obtuse. If 20 is too long, telling me that it can't actually be indefinite* isn't a great argument. So it can be 40 years if they pay? How is that better?!?
I wonder when investors will see this for what it is, a waste of money.

If you are hiring the wrong people your HR\hiring process is broken.

If you are hiring people with lower skill levels than expected, you could make a relatively small investment into upskilling them. Cheaper than fire + severance + rehire.

If you are firing people who are unmotivated you have a culture problem and are just putting a band aid over it while you burn through staff that you have invested in.

> The organization is also actively monitoring and blocking bonuses and promos for those who are not fully ignoring the mandate but are not meeting the full expectation.

That's what they're saying, at least. My easiest promotions have all been from changing companies; to give up a job because I (hypothetically might) get offered another is a luxury I can't afford right now. And, I'd bet better than even money that there's going to be a lot of "not in the budget" syndrome going around near the holidays.

In other words, them saying that they're actively monitoring, blah blah, might actually be a subtle and distant crack of the whip. The real story is that the job market for highly paid professionals is still absolutely fucker. Employers, of course, know this, and will take any opportunity to capitalize on it, even at the expense of their best workers. It's not 2-3 years ago, when people could peace out at the drop of a hat, because a job would roll in soon enough just by making a LinkedIn post and sending out a handful of resumes.

New Antikythera mechanism analysis challenges century-old assumption
Is being stuck on the ferry for twenty hours something that was done intentionally to provoke him, or is that just how long the trip takes?

A couple of decades ago, the idea of even having internet connectivity on a ship at sea was fanciful. The trip would have taken the same twenty hours, and there would have just been no internet access. Now, it's something that is available, but naturally has costs associated -- and the reaction here is that because you don't want to pay for it, it's justifiable to screw over everyone who is paying for it? That's almost sociopathic.
Good point. Still, I have to imagine that the engines themselves are dual use in some regard. GNSS or spy satellites maybe? These days it seems like everyone and their dog has a GNSS constellation, but it wasn't always that way.

> Not to mention the quite cheap flight-proven Indian rockets & a whole bunch of traditional + private Chinese companies, some actively trying to clone Falcon 9 or even Starship.

It seems like most of the world has decided not to fly on Chinese rockets, so those aren't really competition.

But I totally agree with regard to India: PSLV and GSLV are both good, competitive rockets. It'd kind of a shame that they don't launch more often. It makes me wonder if there's some sort of organizational dysfunction going on. It does sound like they're going to be launching OneWeb going forward, though, which is nice.

Yeah I view different vaults as a way to selectively share access and somewhat organization as opposed to 2 different independent password stores. I can understand the need for your use case and it makes sense. I think the only way to do that with 1Password now would be multiple accounts which makes no sense from a user perspective. It would be nice if they went back to supporting your use case as well.
That would be a complete success, since the funding disappeared anyway

> The EU regulations permit

The very thing you quoted has reduced control authority as points three and four! They're dangerous inclusions. It should have stopped with the audible warning, the vibrating feedback has the potential to be dangerous but isn't automatically.

I'm on board with speed warnings in cars. They're helpful in cars where it's easy to speed. My partner's ICE car has a turbocharger and a very smooth ride. It's way too easy to hit 85mph on the freeway and not really notice. Many EVs have the same problem. I'd actually like a speeding dummy light in that car.

What I don't want is reduced control authority because someone not in the car with me and not in my current traffic situation decided I should never be able to go over 75mph ever for any reason.
Thank you very much! It's definitely not feature complete yet - but I hope it can be a solid competitor in the space.

That is an ahistorical view of the history of patents. Openness had never even occurred to anybody when patents were originally invented. Back then, it didn’t matter. Humanity hadn’t come up with much that you couldn’t figure out how it worked if you had one in your hands. It may have taken millennia to invent movable type, for example, but somebody who saw it could have copied it immediately. Its relatively recent that that has not been the case for almost anything.

It was developed to spur innovation, and that is still its main function.

> improvements against cervical cancer can be linked to more effective screening

How can better screening reduce the incidence of a cancer?

Is it instead a graph of cancers that got to some specific stage that the screening helps prevent by early intervention?

Extra confusing as they address the obvious confounder of early detection leading to rises in the incidence but don't really go into detail on that other than to dismiss it.

edit: for cervical cancer the screening can detect "pre-cancers" and help head it off:

> Nor is it expected that the number of residency spots, even now inadequate to place the current, limited number of graduates, will expand

From my very limited understanding, isn't that a much more important issue that deserves more than a single line?

“From this metagenomic information, the researchers developed a 31-marker microbial panel. Using a machine learning model, they tested the panel. They found that it accurately predicted ASD diagnosis across different ages, sexes, populations, and geographical locations, much better than using a single species of microorganism, such as bacteria.”

From the abstract: “Machine learning using single-kingdom panels showed area under the curve (AUC) of 0.68 to 0.87 in differentiating children with ASD from those that are neurotypical. A panel of 31 multikingdom and functional markers showed a superior diagnostic accuracy with an AUC of 0.91, with comparable performance for males and females. Accuracy of the model was predominantly driven by the biosynthesis pathways of ubiquinol-7 or thiamine diphosphate, which were less abundant in children with ASD. Collectively, our findings highlight the potential application of multikingdom and functional gut microbiota markers as non-invasive diagnostic tools in ASD.”

Apologies for the self-promotion, but as several people here mentioned Telegram already...

From a similar motivation of minimizing friction when taking notes, I created a Telegram bot that saves all messages you send it into a Google Spreadsheet. Hashtags can be used to split the text into columns, if so desired. Besides jotting down quick thoughts, this is very handy for short-form journaling such as tracking expenses, workouts, mood, period, etc., with the added bonus of easy charting and summarization from within the spreadsheet. It also supports pictures and other attachments that are uploaded automatically to Google Drive.
