Public Schools near me in SF Bay area are more focused on political ideology than improving kids ability to attain Literary, Math, and Science education. There is a push for Equity over Achievement, by bringing the top performers down to raise the bottom. However the top performers have left for private school, and Public institutions declined. It's a downward spiral. There's hope it'll change either through full dissolution of the public institution (voucher programs) or through the dissolution of such "equity at all cost" political ideology.
Not really. I'm yet to see statistics which show highly educated migrants who come for work causing major issues. It's only a particular type of migration that causes issues with crime.

Comment is true of immigrants as a group, but it’s a remarkably heterogeneous pool. When you break immigrants down down into East/South Asians versus White/Jewish versus others, the differences in educational outcomes between these splits is large.

The wealth is old industrial and aristocratic money. Salaried people don't accumulate wealth.
I really wonder if, like the weather, we should see new financial prediction models, understanding that there is randomness but also patterns.
It being a taboo topic prevents real discussion.

The cause is a single genetically and socially society allowing mass immigration but not changing society to match the newcomers and/or not selecting newcomers based on culture similarities and/or not bridging the divide.

When you make a mass immigration commitment you need to follow it up with tons of work/money/education/discussion. That's why it fails in Europe but succeeds elsewhere. Then they make it impossible to succeed by limiting discussion and calling it hate speech.

North America has two different approaches. Leave who you are behind and become an American. Keep who you are and become Something/Canadian. Sweden wants it both ways.. leave who you are behind but never become Swedish.

Yes it is, crypto is wanting to use banks for the storage of funds, but the banks cannot afford the cost of doing so, because it costs money to manage the massive risk.
So isn't this the same as turning a classical computer on and letting it run on whatever garbage is on the RAM at that time, and when some nonsense shows up on the screen breathlessly exclaim that it would take several millennia to get the same result with an abacus, despite the fact that something was "computed" only by strict adherence to the definition of the word? It's not like it takes a quantum computer to produce a meaningless stream of data.

> overstaffed

Deutsche Bahn is def. not over- but understaffed. It used to be the case that there was at least one person on each platform, they had signal boxes all over the place, and (very probably) many more workshops and train depots distributed all over the country. Now they're running (trying to run, or trying not to stand still really) everything from a few centralized places. Add to this that they have dismantled ALL freight yards in the cities (Berlin, Hanover, Frankfurt, everywhere) and Deutsche Post switched from transporting mail in special night trains to clogging the highways with their trucks and it becomes apparent that the decades-long mantra of each and every politician "we must encourage more goods to be transported by rail" was a stinking lie all the time.

Compared to what DB used to be up to the 1990s, and especially before the 1980s, the state of DB can only be described as heavily damaged, partially destroyed. Destroyed also because of the many, many thousands of kilometers of tracks that have been dismantled since some time in the 1960s.

I’ve done this. Due to medical expenses, in fact. It costs money up front, and was difficult to navigate as a well educated person with family support.

The idea that this is an easy option for a single person with no supports and a disabling condition is insane.

Many doctors won’t see you after, either. Bankruptcy doesn’t mean people you burned have to keep doing business with you.

Neither pilot nor military but:

Specifically to fly fighters you need strong cardio, strong core muscles, strong head/neck muscles. During high G maneuvers all the blood in your body wants to flow down to the lower parts of your body. You have to clench your lower body to mitigate that to an extent (the legs of the flight suit inflate too, to help) and do rapid deep breathing exercises to keep enough blood and oxygen flowing to your brain.

You will also be keeping your head on a swivel to an extent while flying in combat, turning your head to see things around you, it's not just a matter of looking at sensor data. Imagine observing things behind you on a roller coaster (2-3g max IIRC) but now scale that up to potentially up to 9g when your body feels like it weighs 1,500lbs/700kg or so. It's a workout!

While not as directly applicable to flying choppers, all military pilots in a given branch come from the same pipeline. You don't know your aircraft assignment (jet, heavy, chopper, whatever) until the end of flight school so everybody has to be pretty fit.

Should be a "health Insurance " Ombudsman - who the government has given legal power ( via government legislation) to resolve some of these decisions. up to some government determined limits . The running costs of the ombudsman would be paid by the health insurance companies. ( Maybe as a ratio of the claims against each company. ) This gives healthcare companies a motivation to reduce ombudsman issues. Such systems exist in other countries.
It may be that you don't see the illness/infections unless you are looking for them or until the trees die off in sufficient numbers. I look for interesting things growing near me while walking or hiking and around here I see galls from various insects like wasps and aceria, leaves covered in bright gymnosporangium rusts, and colonies of wooly adelgids. In the summer the deciduous trees tend to get powdery mildew, and I know there are some more harmful fungi in the region which seem to be damaging living trees in a way that is not common, but also not new.

Sometimes you can see tress dripping sap from cuts or other damage, which I understand to be part of how they defend against disease. My parents had a tree that I remember dripped for many years before falling over in a storm. They also had a cherry tree that had a ring of dried sap bubbles on the stump of a large pruned branch.

I think there's an even more interesting implication of Boltzmann brains. The non-local universe is infinite in both time and space and when you're dealing with infinities of time and space two axioms become true. Everything that can occur has to occur and nothing can occur only once. So if intelligent life was able to form in our local universe we would have to assume higher intelligence spontaneously arose, AKA Boltzmann brains, in the non-local universe and exists infinitely.
> add a mechanism to create many more universes when a correct result is hit

Simple count has not much to do with the outcome observed, IMU each branch in a split is not equally likely. If you finely sub-divide a low-probability branch into 2^300 sub-branches, so what. Instead, you need to merge multiple high probability branches back into a single outcome that is observed "99.99999% of the time".
Will reply directly to your comment, as I started the concern in this thread, and I think it's important to point out that the situation is materially different based on what jjmaxwell4 has responded.

With Evolve, money was just pooled into an "FBO" ("for benefit of") account, and not ledgered directly to individual users. This is apparently not the case with Apex since you can verify your balance with them directly. They report your balance, so if any money goes missing, you should have an insurable case with them directly.
My entire point here is that there are some kinds of unjust killings which are legal, and that the disparity is heavily skewed such that the kinds that tend to be done by rich and powerful people are the kinds that are legal.

There are a few related but different questions for a given sort of killing: is it legal? Is it just? If the first two answers are different, what should be done about it?

For the first two questions, the answers for regular lead poisoning are yes and no respectively, and for high-speed lead poisoning it’s no and no. I think this disparity is a serious problem.

Why do you think there is a disparity? Is it purely the product of democracy and the will of the people? If so, it seems like a hell of a coincidence that the legal killings are mostly the ones that rich and powerful people do.

I agree that it’s bad to take it into your own hands and kill people you think the law has failed to cover.

But it’s going to happen sometimes. In a healthy society it’s going to be universally condemned. This one wasn’t. What does it mean and what should we do about it?

Some segment of commenters seems to think that it means people are sick and should be shamed into condemning this killing like they’re supposed to.

I think that’s stupid. People are how they are. It’s more interesting and useful to look at why this particular killing gets so much support.

The failing in our society isn’t that too many people cheer on this killing. That’s a symptom. The problem is a system which treats people’s lives cheaply, which allows some people to kill in the name of profit, and not only fails to condemn them, but rewards them handsomely.

If you want people to work within the system, they need to believe that it’s worth doing. They mostly do, but cracks are showing. It would be wise to fix the problem before those cracks produce a total failure.

It's not really that sad. Young guys with a bit of disposable income could do a lot worse than subscribing to someone's onlyfans and chatting with a bot. I don't charge subscribers directly and don't do any pay-per-message scheme, it's free for the user (provided they're subscribed to my client's page).

The conversations aren't even overtly sexual in nature, mostly just guys sending "hey hope you're having a good day" during work hours. Llama is good, but honestly I think anyone would probably know they're talking to a bot after a few days, but they still keep talking to it anyways.
> But DeepMind said GenCast surpassed the precision of the center's forecasts in more than 97 percent of the 1,320 real-world scenarios from 2019 which they were both tested on.

> The model was trained on four decades of temperature, wind speed and air pressure data from 1979 to 2018

The test set is taken from after the training set. I agree it seems likely that it will need to be continuously trained on new data to maintain it's accuracy going forwards, but this seems like a promising sign that it should work as long as you keep updating the model.

Of course the "can compute weather in 8 minutes" thing doesn't include the ongoing training cost... so the "this is much cheaper to run" claim seems slightly suspect.
Most countries don't release fine-grained data but yes when you compare against other countries that are essentially ethnostates – Japan, Poland, few others.
> Whether it is legal or not is irrelevant. You are entering into a conversation about morality. The law does not dictate morality, as much as it can morality dictates the law.

There are various ideas about morality. But I think even in the most common-sense interpretation of morality, most people agree that there are things that are legal, but immoral, things that are perfectly moral but illegal, and that respecting the law is a meta-rule that is important regardless of morality.

Simple example: Most people agree that cheating on a spouse is wrong and immoral. Not illegal though. Do you think it makes any sense to suggest that the only options are either we change the law to make adultery criminal, or we take vigilante justice on adulterers? Or is it just possible that some things might be immoral (to some people) but should be legal?

> A very real example of this from American history is that crack cocaine and powder cocaine had different mandatory minimum sentencing guidelines [...]

Yes, and I think the law was wrong in this case, like it's been wrong many times in history (slavery was once legal too). The correct thing to do was to try and change it, which is what eventually happened.

An incorrect option would've been to jailbreak prisoners because you disagree with the law, despite lots of people being imprisoned for longer than they should've been.

> You are not actually engaging with the argument that the person you are replying to is making. Nobody gives a shit what the law says, they care about what is right and what is wrong. Then we mold the law to match.

I am engaging, because I disagree with this idea. The law and morality are connected, but distinct things, as I've shown above. We have to have legal systems in place to make broad decisions - we can't go based off of people's personal moral ideas. Explain to me how you would like things to work and still be compatible with that idea, given the above examples I've given.

And I think the idea that "nobody gives a shit what the law says" is a statement that is... very, very incorrect.

It is not about legality. It is about the costs exceed the ability to make a profit, it all has to do with liquidity and capital requirements to mitigate the risks. If you want to blame anyone, blame all the scam artists and criminals that targeted crypto. The banks cannot profitable mitigate the risks. If a bank cannot make profits they will collapse.
I didn’t miss anything. You can substitute in any real or imaginary rare and expensive disease if you want to define “healthcare” as something that excludes the general ability to see doctors and receive treatment for common illnesses and injuries.

If you’re dead set on arguing about an arbitrary imaginary definition of a word, the world is your oyster. You can say sickle cell or Methuselah Syndrome or Tandy’s Malady, it’s all gravy if you can convince your mark that whatever you’re talking about is the same thing as the broad concept of healthcare.

As long as the market maker is executing orders at the NBBO on their ATS, they shouldn't be in conflict with Reg NMS, even though they are the only operator with the ability to market make on their ATS. Paying for order flow allows market makers to avoid competition in capturing the spread at the NBBO, however small the spread may be, while also helping to guarantee liquidity to capture the spread on, by giving them the sole privilege to market make on those orders.

Returning to the earlier poker table analogy, I mentioned that the operator with a local monopoly on poker tables, would be required to keep their rake low to keep their local monopolistic privilege, as an analogy to how market makers also have to keep their spreads in line with the NBBO (due to Reg NMS), in order to keep their privilege of executing orders on an ATS.
My understanding is a lot of difference in healthcare spending in Europe v USA can be explained by the cost of pharmaceuticals and the fact that we have fancier (read more expensive) stuff.

The pharmaceuticals pricing is due to the factor that pharma companies believe they can charge higher prices in the US than anywhere else so the US consumer effectively subsidizes the rest of the world. I'm not sure how to solve this problem in a way that lowers prices AND maintains availability of the drugs. The obvious solution is to demand that pharma companies lower prices in the US, but (assuming they are unable to increase prices in Europe) this will just lead to some (many?) drugs not being profitable and reducing availability of drugs for all.

As for the fancier stuff, we do want to have fancier stuff. That means you get better healthcare outcomes for some pretty sick people. We should not want to cut that out. We're in trolley experiment territory when you start discussing whether it is better to have a life-saving, but expensive, procedure available but not everyone can get it because of cost or to not have the procedure available at all for anyone.
The explanation paints a picture of an elegant hack.
Totally agree with everything you've said, brain train for the actual job by doing the actual job and immersing in it as thoroughly and consistently as you can, do things others find boring or difficult.

In case the author IS young, I would also add this: Stay away from startups with capricious, absentee or already wealthy founders, find the most productive, stable environment you can.

If you work in an environment where personal production and job security are orthogonal you might find yourself getting rug pulled where effort/contribution are fully decoupled from reward.

Unless you achieve financial escape velocity or end up in an increasingly rare engineering "jobs program" at a large entity, you will get rug pulled at some point due to founder/manager proclivities or due to other macro economic issues.

You are probably screwed if this happens to you young enough as it fucks up motivation, it's why among the older programmer crowd you see some former HS dropouts that started professional work way too young (in the early days of the digital revolution) for a toxic company just completely burn out and fuck up their reward circuitry (it's also part of why 2 round leukemia kids have worse longterm outcomes than 1 round or non-leukemia kids).

You want to already have experienced patterns of good faith behavior and delay your first rug pull as long as possible.

If you're looking for a polished way to manage a stacked-PRs workflow with git and GitHub, I highly recommend Revup. It was invented at Skydio when I worked there, and quickly developed a cult following among engineers there. I wouldn't describe it as simpler than default git, especially since you still mostly use git commands (like rebase -i) for lots of tasks, but for power users it provides a really nice workflow.
