> I disagree, a lot. First of all, while biking may be a hobby to you, it’s the primary mode of transportation for at least a billion people. To claim that all these people are “infected” by the green crowd, whatever that means, is just silly

BTW it was a form of transport to me. I used to cycle everyday to work and I used to cycle after work and at the weekends.

When I say it was infected by the green crowd, I am not including people that simply use it as a means of transport. I would have thought that would be obvious.

I am talking generally about cycling as a whole. I got into it because I thought mountain biking was cool when I was 12. Now almost every discussion about it is about building whole cities around it, carbon emissions etc. That is pushed by people primarily by people in the green crowd. I used to personally know these people. I probably still have their email and phone numbers hanging about.

There are a lot of extremists in the cycling the movement that want to totally ban cars, think pet ownership is akin to slavery and they are very vocal and some are involved in planning transport infrastructure. I know this for a fact, because I used to know these people personally.

You only think this is all silly because you haven't encountered these people.

> Would you be happy to be associated with aristocracy, now that you drive a land rover, because many "old money" people drive those?

Most Defenders are driven by Farmers I would wager. You are confusing a Defender with a Range Rover. Defenders are very bare bones, mine doesn't even have a Radio. I also have no issue with the aristocracy. They don't interfere with my hobbies or my life in any meaningful way. In fact many of them that I have met are very nice.

> While in your first comment you gave lots of reason why you dont ride a bike, now youre saying you stopped mostly due to perception of others..thats to me just as silly as all the tesla drivers who are now oh so afraid to be associated to musk and going so far to putting stickers on their car claiming they didnt know musk is unhinged.

To clarify, it was a combination of all the reason I listed. You are focusing in on this particular issue because you took exception to it.

The primary reason is one I didn't list (as it was only relevant to myself). I am in my early 40s now. My left ankle has issues, my right knee has issues. My right shoulder is slightly deformed from breaking my collar bone 3 times. When I was run over (the second time), I broke all my fingers on my right hand, some of the fingers didn't set correctly. I don't want to go through that in my 40s again and the roads are less safe than they were 15 years ago.

As for the Musk stuff. I believe it is largely astro-turf'd on the net. If people wish to sell their Tesla or adorn it with Anti-Musk slogans because of his current involvement with the Trump Administration, they are free to do so. I see nothing unhinged about it at all.

If they were to engage in acts of vandalism or violence because of anti-Tesla sentiment that would be unhinged IMO.
Yeah, one of the things I loved about Europe was being able to go outside on a lark without worrying that if I wasn’t watching my watch that I’d burn to an absolute crisp. I miss that :/
I don't think it will prevent this from happening, but one interesting thing is that two quite different (political) sides appreciate and make use of BLM land. The US does a pretty decent job of accommodating quite disparate groups: dedicated off-road vehicle areas, stocking lakes, campgrounds, boondocking, hunting, hiking trails, preserving habitat, etc.

Interesting article.

I have been telling people for more than a decade now to use the exterior product (and e.g. get rid of the clutter of strange Minus-Signs and div, grad and rot in Electrodynamics).

And I was really happy to see that people finally start doing that.

But when I saw the Geometric Product, it didn't look like anything I want.

I understand what you're saying now and agree with that sentiment. People are insane to buy car trackers with subscription services. Those things are horribly anticonsumer.
and my interpretation is that people who ridicule other as being childish for disagreeing with them but act like angsty teenager when they encounter disagreements online should look in the mirror once in a while.
To be pedantic (and technically correct),

"n the military of ancient Rome, decimation (from Latin decimatio 'removal of a tenth'[1]) was a form of military discipline in which every tenth man in a group was executed by members of his cohort." [0]

So, a 10% cut fits the definition.

He's not going to stop there. Putin made his trillions by selling off all the nationally owned soviet enterprises for pennies on the dollar. Trump idolizes Putin, so I think we can see him selling ('privatizing') any and every public asset he can.
That's actually a classic definition of the word. Hence the deci- prefix.
Okay, so you're talking about an additional premium/first class bus service, rather than a change to the existing service? I suspect that that is doomed, because class-segregated intraurban transport _used to be a thing_ (albeit largely on metro and commuter train services, not buses), and it's died out virtually everywhere in the world; when offered the choice of paying X or 3X for the same journey with better seating, people just don't want to do that for short journeys.

For instance the Paris Metro system used to have a first class carriage, until I think the late 80s.

And this would actually be worse, because you'd be talking about separate, likely less frequent buses. Most people will just get on the first thing that comes along, unless it's more expensive.

In general, on transport, people will pay a premium for speed; _express_ bus routes can charge a premium. For instance going to the airport I can take the city bus system for 2 euro and take over an hour (I'm on the wrong side of the city) or an express service that takes 20 minutes but costs 8 euro. I take the express one, and so do enough other people that it stays in business. And they'll pay for better seating for _long_ journeys. But 'long' appears to mean "at least an hour" and possibly "at least two hours".

(Semi-anecdotal evidence of this; in Ireland, a small country where most rail journeys not involving a transfer are <2 hours, first class _used_ to be a thing on trains, but it has been withdrawn from all services except Dublin-Belfast (2 hours) and Dublin-Cork (2.5 hours) because people simply weren't using it. You also see this with air travel; non-budget airlines have been cutting non-economy seating on short routes for years because it's hard to sell.)
Yeah, I'd call it unspoiled or pristine instead of unimproved.
Really? Decimation is the practise of killing every 10th soldier in a group as a punishment. 10% IS that
Translated README.md:

On February 27, Tencent Hunyuan’s self-developed fast-thinking model Turbo S was officially released. Different from slow thinking models such as Deepseek R1 and Hunyuan T1 that need to "think before replying", Hunyuan Turbo S can achieve "instant reply", double the word pronunciation speed, and reduce the first word delay by 44%. At the same time, it also has outstanding performance in knowledge, mathematics, creation and other aspects. Through model architecture innovation, the deployment cost of Turbo S has also been greatly reduced, continuously lowering the threshold for large model applications.
Studies have shown that about 90%-95% of human daily decisions rely on intuition. Fast thinking is like human "intuition", providing large models with rapid response capabilities in general scenarios, while slow thinking is more like rational thinking, providing problem-solving ideas through analytical logic. The combination and complementation of fast thinking and slow thinking can enable large models to solve problems more intelligently and efficiently.

On multiple public benchmarks commonly used in the industry, Tencent Hunyuan Turbo S has demonstrated performance comparable to industry-leading models such as DeepSeek V3, GPT 4o, and Claude3.5 in multiple fields such as knowledge, mathematics, and reasoning.

Haven't looked at the code nor tried it yet, but my guess is that the old code requires old base software.

Decimate means killing a tenth. I think that should come out to about 10%
I can also relate - I'm a tech lead, and it just also happens to be I find programming to be an enjoyable puzzle. When my wife sticks on some TV, I'll usually scratch an itch with some problem I've spotted, or some improvement that can be made - most of our docker build time improvements are me trying out different things and finding what works - same with little QoL features.

Props to the dev of this project though - in some ways this kind of project is one of those 'magnum opus' things - not many people might know or care about it, but it's actually something to be proud of achieving.
Good for you. I've always thought one of the reasons the tech companies would hoard talent is so that talent won't become a disruptive competitor. Though there is a lot of pain involved, I hope the silver lining is that we get more tech innovation from people who aren't vested in the status quo, like the tech companies.
And they believe that if we can bring ourselves to dramatically reconsider what we think we know about it, we will end up with a much better concept of how to restabilize the balance between human and nonhuman life amid an ecological omnicrisis that threatens to permanently alter the trajectory of every living thing on Earth.

Do we really have to resort to total bullshit claims like this in order to make people care about this subject? Knowing what is and is not intelligent has fuck-all to do with not destroying the environment we as a species rely on for survival. The people and forces at work care not one whit. You could prove that chickens can write symphonies and it would make no difference.
I sometimes wonder if Americans realize what is going on they are borrowing $1 to grow the economy $0.80 and from that $0.75 goes to the top 1%. So 99% of the remaining citizen are borrowing $0.99 to get $0.05. Now a lot of the money that has been borrowed was from the 1% and they realize that rest of the 99% cant pay them back so now they will take over your countries assets at cents to the dollar all the while spouting how capitalism is a good thing.
Headline is misleading. Quote from the article:

"some 3,400 workers who had been targeted for layoffs — an estimated 10 percent of the workforce"

10% doesn't meet the traditional usage of the term 'decimate' (as few use the term only when it meets the dictionary definition).
So then the only people who get to enjoy nature are those who can afford to pay for it...

For idealists who need a very short & simple chain of logic to their heartfelt "Things are not fair!" conclusion, or a "what if" game mechanic for their dreams of a better world, the Electoral College is just about perfect.

More realistically - in a country with lots of major problems, and very limited resources to try to deal with those, Electoral College reform is a time-wasting distraction.

This is on par with how Java WebStart locale reporting works between Windows and Linux.

AFAIR, Windows always reports US_EN for the locale, so you can write locale unaware code everywhere, but when running on Linux, you get the correct locale of the system (of course), and things break spectacularly.

I remember debugging an integer overflow, and I literally facepalmed following a "you didn't do THAT, did you!?".

The thing they did was parsing the date from the date string (formatted for system locale, without giving a specific locale) Java returned to them instead of fixing the locale and getting the date or getting the parts with relevant functions.

I have a relatively short fuse for people who doesn't read (or at least skim) the manual of the library they're using.

I don't know, when I got hyperfocused on a side-project a few years ago, I was dedicating almost all my awake time to it. 12+ hours a day, every day, including weekends, for months.

Surprisingly, I didn't burn out. I was just so interested in it, I couldn't stop, and even started neglecting other things to work more on it.

I never hit such a focus state since that time in 2017~2018.

Then I misunderstood.

I still expect further knocks if there are more protests, people believe it's making an impact (even if it's not) with the claims of closing stores.

And if the sabotage continues, then that would be an additional cost to Tesla to replace. I know I would feel skittish about holding stocks of a company that has a CEO who is actively reducing the size of their market.

And that's all separate from the potential Trump/Musk fallout. It could get very messy.
It's a great place to visit but you wouldn't necessarily want to live there.

Thinking about comparable situations in Scotland, you can get a rural property cheaply, or even a spare castle, but .. that's not where the jobs are, that's not where people's friends or social scenes are, there's no shops, and often the weather isn't on your side. What people want is parks as an amenity they can visit. I suppose they'll be privatized and people will be charged to visit them.

Testing Numbs Us to Our Loss of Intellectual Control (2020)
Of course I agree on all of this. Another typical one people don't realize is when they look at pictures of the cosmos and awe at the wonderful colors, except those colors don't actually exist. If we had a spaceship that could bring us within range to see the Pillars of Creation with the naked eye, they'd probably look mostly blandish gray and perhaps we might pick up a hint of red, and that's that. The colors in most cases are post-processing photoshop efforts done by artists to colorize astronomical data that falls outside the visible spectrum - infrared in particular. Even in cases where it's done in the visible range, it's a high magnification long exposure which again means it'd look nothing like what you'd "really" see.

And yeah, the nitpicking can indeed lead to much better outputs in the future. And also give historians a chance to flex their knowledge of esoterica. And unlike some high production value historical series, it can all be redone with this new input in no time. Of course with new mistakes to then correct, probably endlessly, but there's an asymptote towards perfection we can progress along. When the authors start intentionally breaking things to inject their own politics or biases though, and then presenting that as 'authentic', I'd be the first to be here bitching about it. Well unless the author had some reasonable, if fringe, argument for that being what things were "really" like - history is, in many cases, a recreation based on best guesses, and those guesses end up wrong with a reasonable degree of frequency.

The word decimate comes from the Latin decimatio, which was a form of military discipline where one of every ten men would be killed. So although we usually think of 'decimate' as meaning removing some large proportion of something, it can also still mean removing 10 percent!

How is this an erosion of citizens rights?

From my understanding, every country in the world have always been able to tap to phone lines to listen to conversations whenever they wanted (sometimes surrounded by laws).
And now every country is trying to do the same with electronic communications that were evading this situation.

Of course it will be abused, it always was the case and always will.

I see this more as a wake up call that only face to face communication in private settings are legally private.

> The story is the massive corruption and waste in the government.

This is not the story. The story is that the massive waste in the government is being used as an excuse to destroy whole agencies regardless of whether they are useful or wasteful. While at the same time handing over access to ALL of the most sensitive data to unelected third party who most certainly acting in his own, and the country's, best interest. This is the 'massive corruption' that you should be worried about.

> Yes, sometimes you just need the dot product, and sometimes you just need the exterior product. If you are coding, or giving the final form of some formula, you don't have to always put both of them in your code or paper.

In my experience 99% of the time you just want the dot product or the exterior product. Even when you want both it is rare that you want to combine them linearly except in some niche physics/mathematics.

> But neither the dot product nor the wedge product are investable by themselves. Having an investable product on vectors is endlessly useful while you are deriving the formulas.

Do you mean invertible? Why is invertibility is so useful?
>The logical calculus is easier to execute than any of the techniques of mathematics itself, yet only in 1934 did Gerhard Gentzen set it out in a natural way.
