The fundamental challenge with the trades is that some of them are extremely hard on your body. I know roofers who've taken multi-story falls and gotten put back together with steel pins. Plumbers often have issues with their knees or back. If you're lucky or you pick a good specialty, you can make it to your 40s in OK shape. But I've seen a lot of people with chronic problems, and a few with serious disability.

One of ways that I've seen middle-aged people succeed in the trades is to hire a crew and turn it into a business. But by definition, not everyone can be the boss.

It can be a great career if you stay healthy! But I think we should be careful about answering every employment or education question by immediately saying "trades."

Why should we celebrate a growing gap in any direction?

Women surpassed men in degrees earned over 40 years ago. How long is the celebration supposed to last?
> They all had nicer cars and more beer money than me until I graduated.

Well yes, they had jobs. Let's say 10 years after graduation, how are things holding up.

We can hope, his DOJ might amend their demands or the judges he appoints will overturn it on appeal if needed.
Maybe. I thought we were supposed to think of that as bad?

The second reaction should be to institute a bunch of scholarships for men only, tutoring programs for men only, and so on. Even the elementary school near me a few years ago had a "girls after-school math program" they advertised on a giant banner for the entire time I lived there.

(I don't actually think this, but this is what we collectively did when the "problem" was reversed.)
It can absolutely be used for bad, and I know many sites do use it for bad. However, it does good as well, and I think it's important to develop but also it should come with similar permission requests that use of microphone or camera do.

I do research and develop ANN's for data analysis within chemistry. Making it possible for less tech literate people to visit a site, select a model, load their dataset, and get answers, is quite handy. The best part is because I can use their hardware to do it all, it all stays private, no one has to upload any sensitive research data etc. and I don't have to ship to various devices etc. I know if they have a mainstream updated browser they can likely use the tool. No endless requests for help, no mystery issues to solve, things just work.
I feel bad for all of the boys out there who have the potential to specialize and get a degree but are surrounded by shitty, ignorant male role models. People who have no goals, no sort of ambition left, no desire to learn, they just sit around and pat themselves on the back for being unmotivated
This includes men. Men don't care about men. Especially the men who say they do, care the least. What they actually care about is just themselves, not "men".
Yeah building a C cross compiler can certainly be a pain. I do feel like basically every Zig improvement over C also exists with Rust, though, including, yes, ease of cross compilation.
It’s not war in terms of international law if it’s internal. Not clear cut that it’s not internal, but there’s nuance.
The move to the API seems motivated more by keeping the ad profitability model up than being about technical/security reasons. While I'm glad we're not in the IE4 vs. web standards days anymore, with Edge now also being on Chromium-base, there's too many interests in that one hot spot. How did the old saying go? Power corrupts, absolute power ...
It's the best they can do on the new API but it's not the same product.
It might be a footgun, but it will be extremely obvious when it is triggered.
We're just in a really bad "liquid" economy right now, so it's easy to feel that narrative of "college degrees are useless".

They aren't useless, but as tuition rises it is inevitably going to be a worse investment. Not to the point where trades are worth its equally annoying but different kind of annoyance, though. Pay depends on unions, and get into trade unions is anything but a meritocracy.

>Its kinda shocking to see so many homeless men on the streets, then the universities majority women

This is a strange juxtaposition. Are the women in universities making men homeless? Why are the two sides contrasted with each other when there's seemingly barely any relation between the two? How is this any different than something like "it's kinda shocking to see so many single moms barely making ends meet, then silicon valley filled with tech bro programmers"?
Which state is that? Most students need at least a B average for admission to even the lowest rated schools in the California State University system, like CSU East Bay or CSU Dominguez Hills.
Ask HN: How many studios / developers have moved away from Unity?
It's been over a year since the Unity runtime fee debacle, I'm curious for those in the games industry how many studios or individual developers you've seen that have moved on from Unity to something like Unreal or Godot.

I realize this is all anecdotal but I am still curious! Thanks.
As a non US citizen, can you tell me how much a computer science degree costs? I've heard students are left with hundreds of thousands in debt when they graduate.

Also, can you pay student loans with pre tax income?

I've worked with many talented engineers over the years who didn't have degrees and have had no trouble finding jobs and moving around. I imagine a degree might help you get a foot in the door, but once you can demonstrate you can do the job, seems to be easy to pick up more work.

I really wonder how damaging that debt would be for a young person who is also trying to save for a house and start a family.
Why can't the boys have female role models?
No.

Is college really a useful signal? I think it matters which school, what degree, and whether a person would have got into that college due to affirmative action / DEI programs. Sure college is a useful signal for some subset. For the rest it is more a sign that you’re willing to take on debt for either the college experience itself or status or signaling.
Verlet Integration and Cloth Physics
I am not an expert in this, but I think that the “trades pay above average” argument has become accepted as fact when the data isn’t so clear. BLS average wage in 2023 was $64,000 and change. Plumbers, carpenters, and electricians were $67k, $60k, and $67k, respectively. Solid money, but not easy or well above average. Tradespeople who work in high demand sectors, run their own businesses, or become masters can certainly be compensated well, but they are not the norm, and it takes a long time to get there.

I’m with you on the moral argument. My dad was a master carpenter and is one of the smartest people I know. And his work will be around long after mine has become obsolete.

The point is that there is a big difference between depleting the store of glycogen, which can reliably be refilled in about 2 hours and the body's disassembling half the muscle mass, which takes many months to build back up if you even can build it back up to the original mass (unlikely if you are old).

By the way. Crimes agains humanity/war crimes are on different scale. Like perpetrating genocide, stealing children, etc.

Yeah, I've seen cases where even git is not fast enough. That's when opcache preload comes into play. It's still better than manually uploading files over FTP.

Having said that, the "most modern" deployment strategy is to spin up a new container with your new code already loaded, point your LB at the new container, and scrap the old container. No opcache issues. No race condition.
Why is this even measured? What do we actually achieve from this metric as a goal, one way or another?
Younger women in urban/metro areas are doing significantly better than their male peers economically (higher employment rates and income). This gap is increasing.

Young women are doing worse than their male peers in rural areas economically. This gap is closing.

What implications this has for society at large I can only speculate.
> How is this any different than something like "it's kinda shocking to see so many single moms, then silicon valley filled with tech bro programmers"?

Realism, to be frank. Even a single mom has better odds statistically to find a partner than 90% of males. That's why there's not anywhere near as many homeless males than females.

Women still have a cultural option to retreat to the role of a housepartner. Very few men have that option.
I don't know. Why are we told that representation is important and we must have diversity along every axis throughout media?

Well, if you think about it for five seconds, it's because people in general (but especially children) identify with and look up to people who look like them and share their culture. That's just human nature.
This is why the men are beginning to form political identities in opposition to women.
>I've heard students are left with hundreds of thousands in debt when they graduate.

That's very atypical. The average student loan size at graduation is around $33k to 41k. The only way you get "hundreds of thousands in debt" is if you go to an expensive private university and pay full price.

https://educationdata.org/average-student-loan-debt

>The average private nonprofit university student borrows $33,910 to complete a bachelor’s degree.

>For-profit students borrow an average $40,970.
I would like to see the same standard applied by the US, or demonstrate that the US has far more options than its tacit consent, I would like the US to be completely uninvolved, and point out how the US’ leverage in the situation doesn’t involve Congress just the stroke of a pen from any President, leading the Office of Foreign Assets Control

since it would simultaneously be “anti-Semitic” to do this or avoid doing this by assuming cutting Israelis off from the global financial system to be uniquely debilitating, we could find out which view has a kernel of truth attached, and it shouldn’t be a problem at all

War is hell. But this war could have been conducted better. Yes, aid was being diverted by Hamas. But that doesn't mean you stop providing it, it means you do what you must to take control on the ground. The deaths from bombings, et cetera have not been found to be war crimes. The starvation, which was and continues to be avoidable, is.
This site has some data on college majors with major gender disparities (although it's a bit outdated). Women are heavily over represented in Fashion Design, Interior Design, and Elementary Education. Men are heavily over represented in Construction Management, Mechanical Engineering, and Electrical Engineering.

You have to be pretty reckless to graduate with that much debt - most states have fairly affordable in-state tuition for their citizens. So pick a random state like Nebraska (https://admissions.unl.edu/cost/) and you can see that the premier public state university charges $10,400 per year for tuition and then they estimate housing and food at $14,000 more. So if you don't contribute at all in the mean time, you'll likely graduate with about $100k in debt. More commonly, students work summer jobs or on-campus jobs, receive scholarships to reduce the cost, and then many have parents who help with the cost which is reflected in the average student debt of about $35k for all college graduates (https://educationdata.org/student-loan-debt-by-state#nebrask...).

If you go to a private school, or a public school in a state you don't live in, you can easily double or triple those costs, but there are routes for bright students to study at excellent schools for pretty low cost.
I wasn't just talking about the GOP. Some of these people actually are ignorant, feel bad about it, and try to keep everyone else ignorant so that they feel less bad about themselves
Yeah, it's a lower bar to charge with war crimes and crimes against humanity. Genocide charges can come later.
> The charges in question are that of targeting hospitals

Is it? All they say that seem relavent to that is two instances of an attack directed at a civilian object (and not from a policy perspective but more from a failing to punish a subordinate perspective). The ICC has not specified if this is about a hospital or not.

> The charges are not of war crimes, but of crimes against humanity.

Some of the charges are war crimes, others are crimes against humanity. In particular, the use of starvation as a method of war is a war crime not a crime against humanity.

> A war crime is an event which individual soldiers or commanders, or generals are guilty of. Crimes agains humanity is criminal policy which politicians are charged for.

This is incorrect, civilians who can give orders to the military (e.g. minister of defence or the PM) can be guilty of war crimes. It is also possible for soldiers & generals to commit crimes against humanity.
It's merely noting that the majority of homeless are men and the majority of college students are women.

It doesn't imply any causality or relationship.
It's partly because WebGPU has very conservative default texture limits so that they can support old mobile devices, and partly it's a problem for engines that may have a bunch of different bindings and have increasingly hacky workarounds to compile different variants with only the enabled features so that you don't blow past texture limits.

Thank you for posting this PaulPauls,

can I please ask a wacky question that I have about mech.interp. ?

we know that when we use a metric to measure humans, we game the metric, I wonder about future ai, gaming mech.interp.

for simplicity let me propose a 2d matrix to encode tokens, and hope my understanding of neural networks is good enough for this to be a valid question
I understand that higher dimensions have a lot more 'space', so accidental collisions are easily avoided, but 2d makes my example easier to explain.

if we had the following tokens mapped in 2d space

Apple 1a
Pear 1b
Donkey 2a
Horse 2b

it becomes impossible to understand if the neurons 1,2,a,b, all excited represents apple and horse or donkey and pear?

I wonder if a future, vastly more competent AI overseeing its own training might use this form of ambiguity as means to create a model in which the weights are selected so the potential for encoding collisions exist, so that it is possible to deceive an mech.int. observer as to the true thoughts of the model, essentially enabling the ai to think in euphemisms?
It's a bit apples to oranges to compare mean to median? Or at least Honeycrisp to Gala...
You're not wrong, you're just failing to appreciate the difference in scale.
I am seriously concerned about this same issue, but I think "psychological castration" is maybe being a bit hyperbolic w.r.t the long term effects of amphetamines at typically prescribed dosages.
The answer is “it depends”. Could be zero dollars, could be $250K. Most people probably pay around $50K to get one, assuming it’s a public university and you pay the in-state tuition rate.
> It seems like we (the US) should be doing more across the board to help students and provide them opportunities, regardless of gender, race, sexuality, etc. Constant culture war spats and identity politics aren't helping anyone.

It's a nice sentiment, though a quick look at our history reveals that it's all about identity politics and culture wars. There is no way to move past it because the US is, and will remain, a divided, multicultural, individual-focused nation. It's one of my favorite aspects of the country, though it's caused no small amount of grief.
> The next government might decide to turn him over to the ICC simply to get him off the political stage.

That seems very unlikely. If the next gov really hates him they might prosecute him domestically (the things he is accused of are all illegal under israeli law), but i can't imagine they would hand him to the icc.

Not just because that would look bad, but also because icc is supposed to be a court of last resort only to be used where domestic courts fail.
While some here don't seem to like it, instead of replacing uBlock O, I suggest replacing Chrome with Brave.
We are no longer in a knowledge economy. This is a grifter and entertainer/jester economy now.
great comment. I think people tend to in general look at “now” and not “how we got here.” I have been in the industry for 3 decades now, many, many, many projects, many many teams and colleges. In the 90’s when I started there was simply no women working in our industry - like none. In the early 2000’s we started getting some resumes, 1 in say 20-ish were women. In the 2010’s that number went up a bit… and when I had the pleasure of having women on my team they were without exception invaluable members of the teams…

now you are policy maker and you say “what do we do to bridge this gap? what do we do to get more women to join the industry?” the answers are largely in your comment, scholarships, interest groups, outreach, summer camps…

now are we at the point now to say “ok we good, lets ‘tone this down’” - possibly. in my personal experience I would say women are still disproportionally underrepresented but maybe we’ve “done enough”…
Share yours first
For the juniors reading this, here's what you do:

Buy a second domain, ideally using the same TLD as your production domain (some firewalls and filters will be prejudiced against specific TLDs). Mimic the subdomains exactly as they are in production for staging/dev.
Maybe it's time for some positive representation of masculinity in our culture? Something that celebrates men (and not for being feminine) and maleness? Of course many men don't have any goals or ambition when mainstream culture will do nothing but shit on them even if they achieve something.
IIUC the `use` declaration is including the target namespace (https://laravel.com/api/8.x/Illuminate/Support/Arr.html) in the current scope, not declaring a namespace itself. If you wanted to create a namespace you need the `namespace` declaration, which this file lacks. `helpers.php` is directly included by both `index.php` and `artisan` and the functions are thereby in the global scope of the entire app.

In any case, it wouldn't make sense for that file to be namespaced under Illuminate\Support\Arr, as most of those functions have nothing to do with arrays.
Some, perhaps. There's plenty of splinters who got their advice up the chain.

But I don't think the root causes that started as millionaires already and only get richer are ignorant per se. You need a certain discipline, narrative, and overall feel on the mood to properly become that successful on a grift. I doubt many of them went from rags to riches on this.
Probably.

There's no good technical reason why ublock and similar addons are being un-supported, merely Google's whims. If a non-advertising company buys it they won't have any reason to go through with this.

I can only imagine that there will be a whole new can of worms though, trying to maintain a technically complex project with no revenue stream, likely loss of a lot of the core developers, and chaotic management.

It might well recover and turn into a fine project. In the meantime though, firefox seems like the best bet whether chrome is removed from Google or not.
