I write software that solves hard problems and makes money. I am very good at it. Computers do what I tell them, and people are happy.

The biggest obstacle to my job is when I need to convince other people of a course of action. People do not do what I ask of them, because people need a nice narrative. Indeed the reaction of others to my writing is so negative I can get into disciplinary proceedings just for writing facts. Yet, when the shit hits the fan, and people need a leader and a plan, suddenly people do what I ask and are successful, presumably looking past my communication issues because of the imminent and larger threat.

I am Autistic. I look forward to the day when my email and slack client, my JIRA client, automatically take my statements of fact and turn them into something neurotypical people won’t have a social signaling reaction to and respond to as a threat.

Also, thinking can also be doing.

And while I’m here, there’s plenty of people who can write and not think. And more who cannot think critically. Electrolytes: it’s got what plants crave.

This is how blackmail always starts. Didn't worked with wolves in Europe (Not one single National park in Spain has a project to reintroduce or allow wolves, in the areas that should aim for a wild ecosystem. Every park is invaded by cattle and the more we pay for damages, the more money they want).

After several past experiences with similar pay-me-for-respecting-nature (or I will destroy it if you stop paying me), the correct way is buying the land from the start.

The quote is wrong. It should say that the glass formulation limits the voltage for a given acceleration distance. In other words, the glass formulation limits the field strength, not the potential.

If you want 10x more voltage, you can just make the CRT 10x longer. Think about how deep a normal TV is. Now multiply that by 10. An instrument of that size comfortably fits in a normal lab room.

And that’s only for static fields. If you’re willing to play tricks with dynamic fields you can use smaller potentials.
Trivially untrue. Inability to learn except by doing is a defect, which renders you extremely vulnerable to critical errors - you won't be able to learn about these errors since making them (which you find you need to do in order to learn) is fatal.

That doesn't make learning by doing a bad idea, or even necessarily a poor first choice, but if it's the only way for you to learn that's a problem.
The unit in “once in a thousand years” will be replaced by months (already!), then days.
Comparing across countries on US-Dollar-adjusted per-capita income is easy to calculate but a pretty tricky metric to get a lot of value from. Another easy metric to look at that adds a couple more dimensions is the Human Development Index. It includes per capita GNI as a third of its weight, but Germany gets a 0.95 and Mississippi a 0.858. And the GINI score (lower is less inequality) for Germany is roughly .3 and for Mississippi it’s close to .5.

None of these high level economics stats really captures what is going on and how people live. Higher economic output isn’t strictly better, nor is lower inequality. You may be right - Germany as one of the main EU economies may be massively suffering due to EU mismanagement, but I think you need to provide different support for that argument.

Yes yes, keeping politics out of business. Which Microsoft famously does.

> Microsoft actively engages with governments, policy makers, and civil society partners across the world (…)

> In the US, the Microsoft Corporation Stakeholders Voluntary Political Action Committee (MSVPAC) (…)

This idea that big tech companies can or will behave outside the sphere of politics is absolute fantasy and has been proven false ad nauseam.

This kind of liability is not new Europe. In fact it applies to a lot of products. Therefore similar (though obviously not identical) questions are already settled law.

As a layman it may be similar to the questions of how long a manufacturer can be held responsible for material fatique under regular use?

That’s a great point. We don’t really use the R part so much. However, you can’t always avoid it. That said, if your concepts in the table themselves can be atomic or isolated then yes your object model can just be a wrapper of sorts that bundles convenience functionality around the row data.
That is true but also probably misguided.

Scientific knowledge evolves as new discoveries are made, immutable and unequivocal “truth” is the realm of religion, not science (which makes the former much more appealing to many than the latter).

Trust really should not erode if X acted in good faith based on the consensus knowledge at the time.
This is true for salt too.

"Intersalt, a large study published in 1988, compared sodium intake with blood pressure in subjects from 52 international research centers and found no relationship between sodium intake and the prevalence of hypertension. In fact, the population that ate the most salt, about 14 grams a day, had a lower median blood pressure than the population that ate the least, about 7.2 grams a day. In 2004 the Cochrane Collaboration, an international, independent, not-for-profit health care research organization funded in part by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, published a review of 11 salt-reduction trials. Over the long-term, low-salt diets, compared to normal diets, decreased systolic blood pressure (the top number in the blood pressure ratio) in healthy people by 1.1 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and diastolic blood pressure (the bottom number) by 0.6 mmHg. That is like going from 120/80 to 119/79."

So this means the system is working pretty ok, tech companies are sharing the common burden of things that affect them but don't confer competitive advantage? It seems more active participation by governments (if they can figure out how to do it) would only make things better?

School was the most hated period of life. It's so much more fun to learn by oneself, by reading and watching coupled with doing.

I think we've yet to stumble upon a form that combines these three actions into one medium. Perhaps AI-guided doing (in simulation) will be the way.
I would be interested in helping with this. I have an undergrad degree in microbiology and I work as a developer of scientific software for a university lab. I'm interested in game development and am at the same stage you are at for my own game about infectious disease epidemiology.
Temperature is a property of assemblies of particles, and in this case the “particles” are the bowling balls (dust, rocks), not necessarily atoms. Nothing in the formulation requires it to be atoms.

Of course then you get rocks sitting at a different internal temperature than the temperature of the overall cloud of rocks, and yes, over time that would reach an equilibrium. However, heat transfer in space, for large objects, is slow enough that this can be a very long time indeed.
As far as I heard paper can’t be recycled because the fiber gets shorter every turn. It can be respiralled until it’s worthless pulp.

Eg:

> Fiber cannot, however, be recycled endlessly. It is generally accepted that a fiber can be used five to seven times before it becomes too short (as a result of repulping and other handling) to be useable in new paper products.

I thought the same about glass but that turns out to be genuinely endlessly recyclable. Good to know!

They left out the multi billion tax evasion fine, the insider trading accusation and the internal civil war between MAGA hats and the "I am with Her" enthusiasts.

In the end no matter how excellent one is in a particular domain they still remain greedy monkeys throwing feces at each other in all other domains.

You remember the Roundup cases where US juries started convicting and handing out huge damages the very second the US manufacturer was bought by a European company?
I'm not a photographer, but a musician. I won't say that musicians have been replaced by automation, but the ability of someone to earn a living from their abilities as a musician has been eroded considerably over the past century. The preservation and advancement of many musical styles is occurring primarily in living rooms, or is performed for tiny audiences of enthusiasts. I'm happy to help keep jazz alive in that way.

Writing may become the same thing. In the workplace, if someone is writing, they're probably doing it for their own entertainment. Some people write at home, writing journals, blogs, etc. Nobody will know that you're writing, unless it affects your thinking, and your thinking affects your work.

I think we already reached the stage where people stopped writing, before AI entered the picture. I rarely see anybody write a lengthy report any more. Reports have been replaced by PowerPoint, chat, e-mail, etc. One consequence is that knowledge is quickly lost. Or, it's developed by writing, but is communicated verbally.
I think knobs specifically target computer novices, with the software publisher thinking that a computer-appropriate control would be somehow baffling or confusing to people who "know knobs."

The shortcomings of sliders you mention are down to shitty implementations. I have never seen a slider that resets if you click in the middle of it; that's a crap UI. It's common to simply have a little reset button next to a variable control.

"should horizontal slider change its value with up-down movement? should interaction range extend beyond slider length?"

Of course not to both. I've never seen either one of those behaviors.

Knobs are bad for fine adjustment, because the closer to the center you click and drag, the more drastic the adjustment per pixel of dragging.
Your daughter might simply be allergic to a substance in one of these oils and may not be reflective of the experience of the population at large.
My understanding is that the culprit is partially hydrogenated oils (PHOs). Which are chemically the same thing (it seems?) as polyunsaturated fats.

We need our carbon chains to be consistenty hydrogenated one way or the other, but not with both types in one molecule.

Fyi, I'm not negating evolution per se. I'm operating strictly within the realm of the empiricism-based scientific method. It should not be so sensitive to scrutiny and skepticism.

So creationism or not, let me pose the simple challenge to you as well:

Can you name a single species whose speciation-by-random-mutation we have actually observed?

You see, the hard fact, which many of my beloved scientistic friends have yet to come to terms with, is that technically speaking, the speciation-by-random-mutation is a scientifically invalid hypothesis because it is not even falsifiable. In other words, it is a mere conjecture (and sadly nowadays even a doctrinal belief) like any other, from an honest, objective, naturalistic point of view. But I don't even need to get into that because most of my beloved atheists will already have more of an impulsive emotional reaction to that rather than facing it head-on.
True, but there are benefits in some instances as well. For example, we store all rows as entity properties, not entities themselves. So a row would be the user’s email, one row for user name, etc. which makes it possible to do razor sharp queries over exactly what is needed. So while that doesn’t imply a standard ORM, if you want a `User` object you must write an ORM layer

I’m a fairly staunch animal rights supporter. I think your take is the most reasonable.

Industrialized animal farming is a cruelty factory that (mostly) doesn’t even produce quality product. Senseless by any sane measure.

There are other input methods such as Cangjie or Sucheng which are also popular in Taiwan and Hong Kong. They have much faster WPM since they are based on the structure of the characters.

I don't think of the second part being about self control and obesity, to me it's just a reinforcement of the idea that each person has different caloric requirements and you should respect your own needs. Of course it's vague so open to interpretation.

The third part feels as arbitrary and unfounded as any other dietary advice I read, so I'm inclined to take the simplest advice available.
Discussed in the past. Searching for these was difficult because there were a lot of other submissions with similar words, but add "pdf" to the search and it reduces to a single page, I think I've copied all the submissions with comments:

tl;dr

They made a C++ string type, let's call it "german_string", with sizeof(german_string) == 16. german_string can be in SSO mode (4 byte size field plus 12 SSO bytes) or in long string mode. In long string mode, they still use 4 bytes for the size, store no capacity (capacity is always equal to size), use another 4 bytes to always store the prefix of the string (this avoids a memory indirection in many cases when doing string comparisons), plus the pointer. Furthermore, a long string mode german_string can also act as a string_view or a string_view to ".rodata"; this is called the "string class". The string class is stored in two bits stolen from the 8 byte pointer.
FWIW, "Smoky and the Bandit" was released in 1977 and it is about Prohibition in the US shortly after the ending of the Bretton-Woods gold-reserve system (1971) and then the CSA (1971) (Which failed, and caused violent organized crime, and was withdrawn by Constitutional amendment in part due to Al Smith).
Ok but looking at those tests for just a second (for createElement), you might want to go through it again, or ask the computer or whatever. For example, edgeCases.test.ts is totally redundant, you are running the same exact tests in children.test.ts.

Edit: such a LLM repo... why did it feel the need to recreate these DOM types? Is your AI just trying to maximize LoC? It just seems like such a pain and potential source of real trouble when these are already available. https://github.com/webjsx/webjsx/blob/main/src%2FjsxTypes.ts
It's always about making impossible promises and talking about the future they hope to achieve, not things that will be available soon. Also, much of the talk made little sense, such as "individualized mass transit", it doesn't seem to solve any problem they were talking about.

Also, the robots that are controlled remotely by humans without disclosuring it is hilarious.
Parent post falls firmly into the "Not even wrong" category, after you get past the "Just plain wrong" parts (such as the need to program the AD8317.)
The people who live near the glass recycling foundries, and the environmentalists pissed at the footprint of the continual energy requirement to melt it all down and move it around.

I wouldn’t call them a hypocrite because I believe they followed their own advice and were well intentioned in their advice.

In the case of a doctor that tells me smoking is bad even though they smoke, I’m more likely to believe them because they have first hand experience even if they don’t follow their own advice. I don’t think it’s hypocritical to not follow your own advice especially from the point of view that they would follow their own advice if they could and are open about that. In fact there have been numerous smokers in my life who have told me they’re addicted and recommended to me to never start and I did heed their advice.

But that’s not what happened in grade school so I’m not exactly sure what point you are making.
This would be better differentiated by one’s ability to express rather than to write. Of course, a person who knows how to read as well as how to express an idea will do fine with writing as a means of expression but one can also express an idea orally and use that oration to refine their idea.

As a person who frequently uses writing to focus my thoughts, I don’t see why one would see writing as the only way to focus their thoughts.
Not if you go by popular vote, not necessarily at least. There are millions of voters for the other political parties in say California, Texas, New York, Florida; none of these voters will get their voice heard because of how they typically vote (CA going blue, Texas going red). Popular vote ensures that all votes matter, not just whatever happens to be a battle ground state which change every 10 years or so.

BTW saying that one party having a trifecta of governance as autocratic is fucking moronic and not accurate. Words have meaning, lets not diminish them because you're upset people don't vote how you want.
Eth is governed by those with the biggest stacks, so it’s not really something to be taken seriously.

For awhile, I'd guess there will be requirements to work through a thinking&writing task by oneself.

But already there's a large number of people cheating at those tasks.

So, we could also say we'll have the Thinkers and the Cheaters.

Sadly, I don't expect the Thinkers to be the Haves.
I cannot comment on Nina specifically, since I’m not familiar with her work. I’d only like to suggest that being “a joke in nutrition science circles” in the recent past is probably something of a compliment. Mainstream nutrition science led to advice such as putting energy-dense grains at the bottom of the food pyramid, and villainizing fat with respect to CVD, leading to “reduced fat” alternatives which instead use sugar (which is highly addictive). Now, debates center around how much added sugar should be the recommended daily amount (hint: it should be 0). Lawmakers are considering funding overpriced Ozempic via Medicare to fight our rampant obesity, while nutrition science has abdicated its role in helping people maintain healthful, satiating diets.

At least in the United States, the nutrition science of the last 100 years has overseen the most incredible deterioration of metabolic health in human history. There are some folks doing good work out there, as there always have been, but listening to mainstream nutrition science as if their word is law is akin to letting the inmates run the asylum.
There's plenty of UI that presents drop-down (or pop-up) sliders.

I will say, though, that a circle whose perimeter is partially filled in is a space-efficient way to depict the current value vs. the total range available.
