I think trying to overformalize this by bringing in LSP might make it harder to understand and easier to nitpick. Another way to look at the same thing is that subclassing/implementation inheritance is an extremely stringent but poorly enforced contract (yeah, also a kind of formalism) that's, in your typical OO language, far too easy break without noticing.

I think homework is coming back to bite us/them.

K-12 specifically has it bad. Wake up 7am get to school for 8/9 fill your day with classes you don't have much interest in while also figuring out how to be a social human with other kids and all the stress that entails. Then we require them to go home and continue to do more schoolwork.

Of course they're gonna cheat. They're overworked and overstressed as it is.
I can't actually find any articles that actually describe it other than "vector control" and eliminating breeding sites, along with working with neighboring countries. I know some groups are using sterile male mosquitos to prevent breeding, as females can only mate once.
> It seems more strange in my opinion that you'd never have a course thats popular enough that more than one teacher holds sessions for it.

Remember, in European countries students are admitted to study a specific subject at university, rather than being admitted to the university as a whole and expected to choose a major later on.

So there are multiple courses going on, with a lot of intersection between the topics covered. There's maths for computer scientists (heavy on the discrete maths), maths for engineers (heavy on the integrals and matrices), maths for social scientists (heavy on the statistics), and so on.

So both American and European universities split their year 1 maths courses so they can get a few thousand first-year undergraduates through the largest 300-500 seat lecture theatres. But in Europe it's a split by subject, rather than by choose-your-instructor.
I feel like all of this is true, but represents the larger background forces. I think a big factor in why it's hitting relatively hard now is the Musk takeover of Twitter - he laid off a ton of engineers, and nothing much happened. I think that was a shock to much of Big Tech that most of their orgs are really feather-bedded with people who aren't actually doing much to support the core business.
In a working market, we won't run out of power, but power becomes so expensive that it's no longer viable to use most of the GPUs. The boom shifts to power generation instead, and we will have a similar article "The power investment boom", where people will debate that we will stop building power plants because we've simply run out of GPUs to use that power.

What seems cool about this to me is that they seem to have done it with a plain old FDM printer and copper impregnated PLA. The devices are fairly large (mm scale) so presumably anyone with a $200 ender and the correct filament could print these.

I am able to find copper PLA for sale too, although I'm not positive it is what was used in the experiment, and it's kind of pricey (~ $100/kg).
People want to be engaged with the work they believe in. Students or adults.

Fundamentally, kids that are just trying to pass a class don't see the value in learning and it seems that the contributions towards the "pointless" school work are parts teacher attitudes, parts curriculum design, parts real-life applicability to the student's interests, parts framing.

We've been using tests and such for far too long as a proxy for competence, rather than developing the competencies in such a way that engages the kids.

I think we need to look at reframing fundamental parts of how education is structured. I don't think there needs to be drastic changes, just some small things that allow the education and curriculum to become more engaging.
People are already doing this in a much lazier way en masse on instagram - they'll steal someone's content, lots of times it's shock/violence content that draws in eyeballs, and will post it.

Is it - even as a child? When usually your education for the food you consume begins. I explicitly remember being confused about it.

I probably had quite a few inaccurate beliefs in general because of this type of terminology.

Another common thing that made me have inaccurate beliefs was the "E" labelling in Europe. And I remember being told that "oh look at how many 'E' (evil?)" substances are on this package.

But also Curcumin, Vitamin C, etc are considered E substances.

So just so many inaccurate ideas all around. And I don't think this inaccurate labelling has helped much if people are unhealthy.

> If the difference between failing and succeeding is minimal in your life, burn the bridges!

The author’s analogy was about burning ships, not bridges, but your quote about burning bridges reminds me of related scenario I’m seeing more frequently among young people I’ve mentored: The idea that burning bridges is not a big deal because there are always more opportunities.

I’m in a big Slack where people come to ask for advice on tech careers. An alarming number of questions in recent years are from people who want to leave their jobs with a bang: Quitting without notice, intentionally making things difficult for their successor, unloading their grievances with specific people as they leave, posting big angry messages on the company Slack on their last day, and other ill-advised ideas.

They’re always disappointed when the Slack unanimously tells them it’s a bad idea to intentionally burn bridges like that. I guess it’s not until later in your career that you realize the value of being able to call on old managers and coworkers for referrals or job opportunities. They see leaving a job as the last time they’ll ever see any of those people. We have to remind them every time that networking is important and therefore they don’t want to leave a lasting negative impression on a place where they spent years building a reputation. Just do your two weeks notice and quietly exit.

Tangential, but it comes up enough in these scenarios about taking on new risks that I thought I’d mention it.
I wonder if they will paint pin alignment marks on the grabber arms?
well while that is true only debris that has the right speed will stay there. the issue is that debris will probably have gotten some impulse that turns it orbit elliptical. that means it will slowly ratchet along geo touching it every day or so at a different place. so you get a changes every day for every piece to hit something. And even a big piece that might just have a delta of 30km/h might damage your panels on your working Sats.

However, another major reason is that people have repeatedly gone seeking for language-like or human-language-level behaviors in animals, and repeatedly and consistently failed.

It is also worth pointing out that detecting language is a great deal easier than understanding language. Something like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvr9AMWEU-c is reasonably recognizable as clearly some sort of language even if we have no (unassisted) human idea what it is saying. We can tell with quite high confidence that most animal sounds are not hiding some deeper layer of information content.

Such exceptions as there are, like whalesong, take you back to my first paragraph, though.

The idea that language is a uniquely human phenomenon may be "dogma", but it is also fairly well-founded in fact. It should also not be that surprising; had another species developed language first, they'd be the ones looking around at their surroundings being surprised they are the only ones with proper language, because they'd probably be the dominant species on the planet. It isn't a "humanist" bias, in some sense that humans are super special because they're humans, it's a "first species to high language" bias, which happens on this planet to be humans.

> Hopefully we'll develop the tech to clean up debris in space

Rendezvousing is pretty established tech so long as you know a precise and stable orbit of your target, afaik? Which, for geo, we would I think. So taking up some grabbing mechanism probably does it, then use ion engines, burning retrograde (avoiding the need for heavy fuel) until you get it to a low LEO orbit, let loose, and let the problem solve itself within a few ~weeks. Then move on to the next piece, so you don't need a launch to orbit for every individual piece of debris. You also don't have to circularise your orbit to just rendezvous and grab it. And you probably also don't have to go out of plane even if the target object is, if I'm visualising this correctly, because there's always a node where the planes intersect and you can just start the path up to geo at the right point in your LEO orbit

Grossly simplified, devil in the details, but this seems very possible with today's technology and potentially less expensive in terms of delta V than it may seem at first glance
Something worth noting that I just noticed: on macOS (zsh), <somefile on its own seems to automatically page the output, whereas cat will simply print the entire file.

> Who is going to pay the day SpaceX has a "whoops" ?

Ironically, SpaceX is probably one of the least bad companies in that regard.

1. They launch satellites to a very low LEO orbit. The satellites use their onboard thrusters to get to their final orbits. This means that satellites that malfunction early in their life (the first lip of the bathtub[1]) deorbit in a matter of months. And they're so low, they don't affect anyone else.

2. And even Starlink satellites that do fail are at such a low orbital height that they'll spontaneously deorbit in 5-10 years.

Huh? Unless they are serving you a vastly different page than they serve me that's not the case.

UBlock Origin blocks 4 things right away, 3 of which seem to be ads and the logging or analytics. Then sitting on the page over the next few minutes that rises to 7, with the new ones all seeming to be logging or analytics.

Refreshing the page several times to see different ads, they were always either short banners that spanned the page or a square in the middle of the column about 2/3 of the column width.

Most of the time they were not animated. The only animated ones I saw just had an animated fade in which lasted maybe half a second and then it was static.

Wouldn't debris at the same address (after some time) therefore have zero relative motion?
I think this misses the point. An IPv4-only home network has a lot of benefits, simplifying whatever you to in it which relies on IP addresses which you'll have to handle manually in code and databases.

His scenario is really a PITA, where he's basically forced to migrate to IPv6 only because of IPTV. There might have been a solution by creating an IPv6-only VLAN just for the TV, while keeping the rest at legacy, but it's not really trivial.

IPTV with Deutsche Telekom is also a pain, because they feed it in a separate VLAN and the routers and switches need to handle IGMP messages properly (IGMP proxy, IGMP snooping).

If engineers run the restaurant the food is excellent but the menu is confusing and there are no customers because nobody knows the restaurant exists.

If sales/marketing runs the restaurant it's full but there is no food. The menu is beautiful and shows all kinds of dishes nobody knows how to make.

If MBAs run the restaurant it's full of people paid to be there long enough to be counted and reported up to the investors and the food is purchased from the McDonalds next door and relabeled and resold at 3X the price. Nobody will ever come back but it doesn't matter. The metrics from this exercise are used to raise money to open three more restaurants across the street from convenient sources of cheap fast food. This novel model of running restaurants is written up in Harvard Business Review as an excellent example of an arbitrage business model.

If artists run the restaurant they make and eat the food themselves and then leave.

It's funny. You have created yourself a paradox. Replace comp sci with being a teacher. You have made the claim now that teachers can be incompetent but Johnny cannot be. Let's say Johnny wants to become a teacher and puts in lots of effort but just cannot teach. Now he is an incompetent teacher but at what point did he go from being judged on effort to being judged on ability? When he wanted to be a teacher and got a free pass for being a bad teacher? When he went for his first job and got a free pass for failing his exams? When his entire class learned nothing because he was unable to teach even though he put in lots of effort?

Where is the transition? At some point ability is more important than effort.

I think this is why I am kinda debating what personally I can do about it ( in a reasonably efficient way ). And I admit I am on the fence. I try to donate funds to some worthy causes ( like EFF ) every so often and IA might be getting some offers of help now that is in the spotlight ( and can I reasonably compare to someone steeped in the subject? likely no ).

I do advocate for some variant of digital prepping in my social circle, but the response has been similar to my talk about privacy. The ones that do care, have already taken steps or are in the process of some sort of solution for their use-case. Those people do not need convincing or even much help.. they mostly simply know what they want and/or need.

As for a more systemic solution.. I honestly don't know. HN itself seems pretty divided and I can absolutely understand why.

All that said, I think I agree with you. There is no real alternative now so IA needs our support at the very least until we can figure out how to preserve what was already gathered. I said the following on this forum before. Wikipedia is not hurting for money, but IA, being in legal crosshairs and whatnot, likely will.
