Our school district is implementing identical thing, very similar, justifying this with health and emotional wellness and anti-cyber-bullying. They are checking in the phones into Yondr pouches.

I wish them luck on the implementation... I think there have a steep challenge ahead of them. One thing my boys told me is that they have QR codes for homework/assignments/worksheets that everyone used phones to scan and do work on there with GSuite - and the school provided laptops won't be able to do this. The that everyone in K-8 everyone has can do QRs okay though.
Vivaldi has the keybinds for both options of tab cycling, and on Windows you could also have both via a script/app, so no need to compromise in these basic

(and unfortunately most often there aren't really good reasons for having such a poor customization for most apps, just bad design without much care for UI)
Unreal. Apple’s gonna take a 30% off everything they possibly can.
It can be more efficient when combining both Alt-Tab and Alt-` - if you have several windows open in multiple different apps, it's easier to first Alt-Tab to the app you want and then Alt-` to the window you want rather than Alt-Tabbing through like 20 individual windows.

That being said, I don't really strongly prefer one system over the other; the main cost is in switching between them and using the wrong shortcut for a while (more a problem on the OS with 2 shortcuts, i.e. Linux). This would be helpful to avoid that, but so would configuring whatever Linux windows manager I'm using to only use Alt-Tab.
Cmd+tab, then Cmd+`

I much prefer it to alt-tabbing through every single open window. I don't understand why people prefer that.
Housing is inexpensive in places where there are not enough jobs. Cities were born due to industrialization moving jobs to them, not because people suddenly wanted to become urban.

So, what individuals want has little to do with it.
I guess you make the same app and tweak it slightly 1000 times, since it's a low quality app probably it doesn't matter
Not really, I’m afraid you’re shifting the goalposts.

I don’t think Popper would be so naive to just limit intolerance to physical violence (which is already ruled out by law, so why bother).

The intolerance is against anything intolerant that if given enough power will stamp out (violently) Democracy itself.

One just needs to look at Putin’s Russia to understand what he meant.
I wonder, though, whether jokes like these could be useful to professional humorists who have to come up with gags on a deadline. From what I’ve read about monologue writing teams for late-night talk shows and the like, the writers first propose many ideas, most of which are shot down quickly and the remainder of which get tweaked and polished before being used. Some of the above jokes by Claude look to me as though they might serve as good starting points for such brainstorming. At least, they’re better than anything I could create in a short amount of time.

To a first approximation, varying fee by average neigbbourhood income might accomplish much of this. An assessment baked into income taxes (state or federal) could of course accomplish this directly.

Offering different pricing tiers is another option, with a "basic" package that includes most sources, and one or more premium tiers which includes either greater availablity, or more immediate / current access to, entertainment and sport content, for example.

Basic informational content, including news and cultural lore (classic books, movies, music, etc.) would be in the basic tier.

I think Amazon also had a similar strategy.

My kids use Roblox. There _are_ parental controls you can enable through Roblox. When my twins turned nine, I had to enable 9+ games for them. I believe the age cutoffs are 9+, 13+, and 17+. I think anything with drugs should be 17+, and realistic violence/blood might be 13+? Not totally sure.

(Disclaimer: I'm a Roblox employee, but speaking only on my own behalf, and don't work on anything related to age guidelines.)
Console user spend and user acquisition costs are not even remotely similar to the corresponding values in the mobile ecosystem.

Backwards compatibility is more difficult in Rust for many reasons. For example, you can't add a new item to an enum without creating missing-case errors everywhere it is used.

You don't have to chase plugins with either Vim or Neovim you know? You can even use the same Vim plugins in Neovim if you wanted to.

It's true that Neovim leans more towards more changes and thus more risk of bugs, but claiming that Neovim is unstable is unfounded.

Once again the curious case of one hard thing in computer science:naming things.
cargo tree -i log@0.3.9

will show which dependencies require this particular version of log, and how they are transitively related to the main package. In this case, you would clearly see that the out-of-date dependency comes from package "b".

There are equivalents for must other package managers that take this approach, and I've never found this a problem in practice.

Of course, you still need to know that there's a vulnerability there in the first place, but that's why tools like NPM often integrate with vulnerability scanners so that they can check your dependencies as you install them.
I think this is a slightly better history:

That's true. The US economy is still very strong by world standards.

In my country (Finland) even entry-level jobs that pay peanuts often have multi-round interviews, with applicants recording videos and taking psychological tests. It's all handled by recruiting firms, which make good money by filtering the masses of desperate applicants through meaningless tasks like this.

Even if the workforce is small, job market can still be highly competitive when the there are simply too few successful employers.
That's a true effect, although I'd question whether it makes it harder or easier for things to be backwards compatible. I use Rust because I trust it to throw up a bunch of errors when I make changes; if I handle all the cases of an enum somewhere, and suddenly there's a new enum variant, the answer is probably that I need to handle the new variant there too.

Paper (2020): https://arxiv.org/pdf/2003.07267

As a layperson I found the first page to be more succinct and intuitive than the article.

> Let Alice have such a processor that implements fast information scrambling during a reversible unitary evolution of many interacting qubits. She applies this evolution to hide an original state of one of her qubits, which we call the central qubit. The other qubits are called the bath. To recover the initial central qubit state, Alice can apply a time-reversed protocol.

> Let Bob be an intruder who can measure the state of the central qubit in any basis unknown to Alice. If her processor has already scrambled the information, Alice is sure that Bob cannot get anything useful. However, Bob’s measurement changes the state of the central qubit and also destroys all quantum correlations between this qubit and the rest of the system.

> According to the no-hiding theorem, information of the central qubit is completely transferred to the bath during the scrambling process. However, Alice does not have knowledge of the bath state at any time. How can she recover the useful information in this case?

> In this Letter, we show that even after Bob’s measurement, Alice can recover her information by applying the time-reversed protocol and performing a quantum state tomography with a limited amount of effort. Moreover, reconstruction of the original qubit will not be influenced by Bob’s choice of the measurement axis and the initial state of the bath.

> This effect cannot be explained with semiclassical intuition. Indeed, classical chaotic evolution magnifies any state damage exponentially quickly, which is known as the butterfly effect. The quantum evolution, however, is linear. This explains why, in our case, the uncontrolled damage to the state is not magnified by the subsequent complex evolution.
My kids have started playing Roblox recently and they have started asking for some Robux so they can buy crap... I really don't get how so many people are into spending dollars on this stuff. Everything they wanted was ~$10-20 NZD and it was just throw away stuff, like a costume, etc. And then it's only useful in that one game you have brought it for. It blows my mind that it ever got this popular.

Apple did have conversations about how to profit from Facebook’s apps.

But there’s no evidence that the App Tracking Transparency was a direct result of failure to come to terms with Facebook on some type of revenue share.

Even if a portion of the comprehensive set of protections included in ATT was specifically to target Facebook, Apple did not use it to punish Facebook.

Apple’s customers did.

Because when given a choice, 85-96% of all people across the entire planet did not want Facebook tracking them.

If one was to speculate on The decision-making behind platforms’ leadership, it follows to consider Google’s reluctance to follow in the footsteps of Apple with ATT due to google’s own direct reliance on ad revenue.

Apple is no saint, it’s made many compromises on user privacy in the face of business.

But there’s no doubt in my mind that the position of selling products and services, including the distribution of others’ software is by far more consumer friendly than the quiet identification, data collection and targeting of individuals.
Wild meaning unfair, perhaps?
> Oddly enough, I much prefer recently used when switching windows and sequential when switching tabs.

Same! The key difference IMO is that with tabs, I can actively see all of them even before I hit the shortcut; being able to see the "distance" between my current tab and the "destination" makes me find linearly searching easier.

With windows, I tend to almost always have things maximized on the monitor they're on, and when I have two monitors, I tend to split things by only having a single window on one monitor (keeping the rest all together). While there's generally a visual reference for swapping windows once you've hit the shortcut (but haven't released it yet), not having the context before I start taking action makes me less likely to know the exact order of my windows, so there's not really any order that would be helpful based on that. The only reason that recency order is somewhat useful for me is to be able to quickly swap back and forth between two apps (especially when I have a single monitor), and that's just not really how I use tabs.
Thanks for making this, but small note:

On QWERTZ, backtick ` is: a dead key, situated left of backspace, and it's in the "upper row", too.

So there the combo is actually Alt+Shift+´+Space, in need of two hands - it's very hard to imagine a worse default key combo choice for this task, compared to Alt+Tab. I'm glad you made it configurable.

Fun fact: one of the first public drafts for multi-line Strings in Java expected the delimiter to be ```, until I pointed out the issue as above to Brian Goetz at JAX in Mainz where he had presented said draft. My proudest professional moment.

If we are assuming manufacturer cooperation in designing and implementing "School Mode" for their devices maybe make is so as part of parental controls the parents can enroll a device with their kid's school.

A device that has been so enrolled would detect when it is at school, maybe by looking for a particular Bluetooth beacon that the school deploys. When the device determines that it is at school, it would connect to the school's wifi network authenticated and secured with a certificate generated for the device when it was enrolled. It could then use a provisioning server on that network to find out what usage is allowed or not allowed while at school.

Such a system could allow for pretty fine grained control. For example the article mentions that one thing kids use their phones for is taking photos of notes on the board. With a School Mode that works as describe above they could make it so the teacher can use their phone or tablet near the end of class to grant temporary camera permission to all the enrolled phones in that classroom.
In the summers of 93 and 94 I had an internship where my daily desktop was an Indigo 2 Extreme, because someone had procured it, but no one was using it. Crazy.

I did do some awesome graphics visualizations of the labs simulation data on it, so I think they got some use of it, but I also played a lot of Arena...
Absolutely, it's better to have a smaller slice of a bigger pie, which is why I'm OK with this.

What I meant by "wild" is that in this case, the dev of the game is the one receiving that ~30% slice. Apple+Google get about the same as the dev does.
What I find most frightening is the trick Musk played on regular investors via his pay package that is now worth tens of billions. Multiple times more than what Tesla earns per year.

No regular investor digs into this kind of company details. Nor do they understand the risk reward mechanics at play. And they shouldn't have to.

If the stock market gets played with unusual contracts like this one, regular investors will be cheated out of the value that is created by replacing more and more jobs by AI.
It’s OK when big money donates to one side but not the other?

For those not familiar with American politics, virtually all large money donors donate to both sides to varying degrees. This is primarily to get both your favored candidate in the race and remove tough matchups from the opposing side via the primary process. The real difference is who you choose to vocally support.
HTTP, HTML and to some extent CSS are solid technologies that are very well designed and has been standing thr test of time.

But surely you can still run into the same issue:

I import a@1 and b@1
a@1 transitively depends on c@1
b@1 transitively depends on c@2

Even with different import paths, I still have two different versions of c in my codebase. It'll just be that one of them is imported as "c" and the other will be imported as "c/v2" - but you don't need to worry about that, because that's happening in transitive dependencies that you're not writing.

You still have the same issue of needing to keep track of all the different versions that can exist in your codebase.
Anyone has a working AutoHotKey script for same program window switch on Windows? The same way how Ubuntu Unity works.

> If you were reading the documentation for function foo() and it read "if the argument is negative, foo() throws an exception" (...)

I think you didn't understood what I said.

In C++ functions declared as noexcept are expected to not allow exceptions to bubble up. If an exception bubbles up from one of these functions, the runtime calls std::terminate.

This does not mean you cannot throw and handle exceptions within such a function. You are free to handle any exception within a noexcept function. You can throw and catch as many exceptions you feel like it while executing it. You just can't let them bubble up from the scope of your function.
Don't forget mobile unless you are firmly in Apple camp with iPhone and iPad devices. You can switch to Apple ecosystem but then the overall cost in the end may be more than the chargeback amount.

He uses Mitsubishi Uni pencils. His recommendation of sharpening the pencils "[Make the exposed pencil lead long] By making it sharp and long, the sharp will continue and it is easy to re-sharpen"

His YouTube video [1] shows his collection of pencils (the various grades) and the meticulous attention to pencil sharpening - which seems to be in two stages, the first is using a normal mechanical pencil sharpener and then the second stage is handcrafting the length of the lead.

That's not a very clear example. You don't need to be using multiple versions of the same dependency to contend on access to stderr/out, just having a println in your code along with logging code will have the same effect.

I haven't ever observed a problem of concurrent access to stdout/err though, I expect because the methods for accessing stdout/err lock them for the duration of their printing. If you Google for "Rust print console slow", you'll probably find advice to explicitly lock it, to avoid individual printlns from each acquiring the lock.

The subject is always either 'Order Confirmation' or 'Payment Confirmation.'

They always have a number at the bottom of email or the PDF to call for support/order cancellation. My best guess is that they want people call in rightly claiming they didn't make an order, then the phishing begins?

Seems like a reach. However there does seem to be growing support for quantum interactions in the brain. Originally it was thought the brain was much to warm and wet to support quantum behavior.

Apparently Roger Penrose had a crazy idea about quantum consciousness, with precious little to support it. But there's been several papers since that provide interesting hints. One is "Ultraviolet Superradiance from Mega-Networks of Tryptophan biological networks".

Another noticed by Suart Hameroff (Arizona university) noticed that some anethesias do not have an explained mechanism. Especially noble gases that are inert and generally do not chemically interact with the body, but do work as an anethesias. Turns out they do interact with tryophan rings, changing the quantum properties.

trypophan can form tubules, which are VERY common in the body, and do seem to have strange quantum properties.

I still disagree with your caveat, which I mentioned in the previous reply: people are after social objects, so the gossip very much doesn't have to be about people in their own life - it just has to be about people they're paying attention to, or caring to gossip about.

Taylor Swift? I don't know, but probably yes for large segments of the US population. For near-universal worldwide gossip success, try mentioning Trump. For those above 30, Obama and Bush will also work. We may be past peak celebrity gossip, but politics always works. Which is why it's banned to talk about in polite company.

(And yes, I'm counting talking about political issues as gossip too, because even if it's about multiple people or no one in particular, the level of understanding and quality of exchanged "knowledge" is the same as when conversing about random actors' extramarital affairs.)

Otherwise, a big part in two people getting to know each other and bonding is in learning what topics they're both interested in gossiping about.

What journalists are interested in as people doesn't really matter. Journalism is long past that, and 100% devoted to ad impressions now. Which means journalists (are told/allowed to) wite about things the paper expects will interest people. If they're writing a lot about celebrities, they're likely right that this will interest a lot of people. Meanwhile, social media - like Twitter - is algorithmically self-organizing for engagement, which means it's a prime tool to discover what most people care about (in a hooked up drug addict sense) in real-time.
