That's not a relevant analogy. In your example, staying awake during guard duty is your job and it's a proper responsibility. You should be penalized if you fail at your job.

I'm saying that tracking milk shouldn't be part of your job, because it's not a good use of people's time. None of it has anything to do with "importance". It's about what is best for the business.

In every major conflict since the creation of the war powers act became law, an authorization for the use of military force was passed by Congress prior to major combat operations. This was true in the Gulf War, the War in Afghanistan, and the War in Iraq. There were cases where the president invoked the war powers act for short term deployments of forces, which did later result in Congress authorizing additional use of force (e.g. Lebanon), but nothing even close to the scale of invading a stable, sovereign state.

I don't think that's at all what consumers care about. Cell phones need to be approved by the carrier to even run on the network, and of those approved only a small subset is sold and subsidized by the carrier. Combine that with the small number of carriers allowed to operate in most regions, and you end up with a very limited number of products that the hobbled market can support, regardless of the volume. The real market is between the manufacturers and the carriers, not the manufacturers and end users.

There's all sorts of crazy tablets, laptops, and handheld computers at any given time, but even large conglomerates struggle to keep their phones available through cellular carriers.

Meanwhile, companies that are very successful with stagnant and feature-limited cellphone designs have to put much more effort into computers and tablets to get a reasonably market share. Apple kept lightning ports on their cellphones long after their tablets supported USB-C, despite effectively being the same hardware, sans cellular modem.

So it contributes nothing, for you?

Amazingly though, you found it enough of a contribution to spend your time in reply.

Let me quote from the original article:

> "This suggests that the newcomers exterminated the men in the farming and hunter-gatherer populations they encountered, while incorporating the surviving women into their community"

They "incorporated" the women, uh huh...

> In other places, “it’s a process of almost no mixture with the previous people, who just disappear”

So in places where the women were more resistant to "incorporation" they were killed along with the men.

Oh, no they weren't all killed, they "just disappear". We do love our euphemisms don't we 8-/

I don't want to be a detractor from having happy fantasies about this, but it seems to me they're pretty much like every human culture: the one who kills all the others is in charge.

While this may have been a beneficial survival strategy in prehistory, overcoming this is on what the future survival of our species depends. That's the idea I'm trying to contribute.

Sorry this wasn't helpful enough for you... I'll try harder next time...
The journalists? Nothing, in fact it's a big negative.

The newspaper owners, though? The point of a newspaper is to obtain political power, both direct and through favours. The CIA was willing to overthrow a democratic government and replace it with a military dictatorship to help out a banana company - who wouldn't want to be owed favours like that?
This is a topic near and dear to my heart!

Cottons is the break directly in front of Casa Pacifica. It's a long, easy peeling left-hander (meaning: looking at it from the beach, the wave curl moves from left to right as the wave breaks). I've surfed there several times. It's so amusing to imagine President Nixon pacing around in the house atop the cliff with a bunch of dirty hippies riding the waves below.

The history of surfing in this area is fascinating and drastically different from today. In 1960, when this story takes place, surfing was deeply counterculture. You could live in a beach shack in Southern California on bum's income — many people did. Although surfing originated in Hawaii, Southern California modernized it. "The Endless Summer" perfectly captures the flavor of this era of surfing and is well worth watching even for non-surfers.

Orange County birthed the modern surfboard, constructed with a stiff fiberglass and resin outer shell (the "glass") and foam interior (the "blank"). This construction technique was adapted from methods used by OC's aerospace defense contractors. It's perfect symmetry: the crew-cut engineers working on missiles and fighter jets, trading construction techniques with beatnik hippies trying to find a better waveriding vehicle. Nixon was hilariously in the geographic center of this intersection.

In the decades since then, the sport of surfing has moved monotonically upmarket. Today, if you're surfing in the U.S.A, you're wealthy. A lot of white collar desk workers started surfing in 2020, easier to get in the water if you work an email job. It's similar to living in an old warehouse in Tribeca NYC -- in the good old days it was the cheapest lifestyle you could live; today you pay for the privilege.

At its best, generating hydrogen and then putting it through a fuel cell is less than 50% efficient, and that's discounting all the losses present both in BEVs and hydrogen cars.

Hydrogen combustion engines slash that efficiency in half.

On 14 March a root certificate (the resource used to prove an add-on was approved by Mozilla) will expire, meaning Firefox users on versions older than 128 (or ESR 115) will not be able to use their add-ons. We want developers to be aware of this in case some of your users are on older versions of Firefox that may be impacted.

https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2025/03/10/root-certificate-...

Well, System1 was/is a search aggregator. That falls under ad-tech but at the time no-one cared about the former and only the latter.

A 10% chance of collapse every decade is a reasonable baseline for a stable country. At least if a civil war or a major invasion counts as a collapse. That gives you a century of stability in the expected case, which is quite exceptional.
> It begins with a quick one chapter intro of Arnold's proof of Abel-Ruffini.

The key to understanding/motivating Galois theory is Abel-Ruffini, which is a corollary of Galois. And the simplest way to understand that is Arnold's topological proof, which i learned about from this video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhpVSV6iCko

Watching that video and rolling it around in my head completely demystified Galois theory for me, years after literally 2 semesters of algebra in undergrad. Everything about normal subgroups and commutators and splitting fields and blah blah blah immediately became tangible and obvious. It should be a crime not teach this proof first.

The coverage in Koch's book looks good too - lots of pictures - and funny enough it links to a different youtube video.

Edit: copy-pasting notes I took from the video after watching.

------

The idea is to continuously perturb each of the coefficients of the polynomial along a loop (change each of them from their initial value such that they traverse a path that returns them to that initial value at the end of the path) and study what happens to the roots of the polynomial.

Note, once all coefficients have returned to their original values the entire set of roots also returns to itself, but each root does not necessarily returns to its original value. In general you get a permutation of the set of roots and so in this way we get a mapping between loops of the coefficients and permutations of the roots.

Also note, we can produce coefficient loops that map to any permutation of the roots by permutating the roots and “watching” the coefficients.

Hence, the way to prove Abel-Ruffini is to show that any expression involving the coefficients (ie formula for the roots in terms of the coefficients) returns to itself after the coefficients traverse their loops but the roots do not (and therefore the expression cannot capture all of the roots). For example, an immediate corollary of the construction of the mapping between loops of coefficients and roots is the fact that a general solution involving only -, +, ×, ÷ is not possible;
-, +, ×, ÷ are all single-valued and therefore no composition thereof could produce multiple roots.
You are wrong. Either you don't live in India or live in a bubble in rich area and too privileged.

It's not racist when it's true. People are disgusting here and makes me want to vomit in times from what I see. There is no self awareness among Indians unless they live in rich well off area in India and move in their expensive cars.
I thought this was sarcasm, but it isn't. Seems like a very weird choice to me to build network infra on top of Python. C/Rust would have been the more obvious choice since you can then bind to that from any language (at least with C).

Thunderbird began improving, as far as I know, after multiple post-Mozilla iterations, including returning to the Mozilla fold in a different relationship, which is where it is now. Its improvement was not correlated with the Mozilla breakup.

Mozilla and the Thunderbird teams knew, however, that a breakup was needed for both Thunderbird and for Firefox (Thunderbird compatibility requirements were holding back Firefox).

The reason was that Thunderbird was a low priority for an organization that has a much more successful application in Firefox. Low priority projects don't do well; the organization naturally structures, invests in equipment, hires, manages, etc. for the high priority. You want to be a high priority wherever you are - better to be the big app in a small org than a small app in a big org (as a very general statement).

If you don't know these things, why make up sh-t about Mozilla? What do you get out of it?

That's the sort of hook you should be able to write yourself pretty quickly. So I threw your comment into o3-mini-high and it gave me a decent-looking solution. Decent but wrong, since it thought "current git commit" referred to the project repo, rather than the referenced dependency.

Anyway here's the gist of a solution without any of the necessary checking that the files actually exist etc.

#!/bin/sh
for file in .github/workflows/*.yml; do
grep -E "uses:[[:space:]]+[A-Za-z0-9._-]+/[A-Za-z0-9._-]+@v[0-9]+" "$file" | while read -r line; do
repo=$(echo "$line" | sed -E 's/.*uses:[[:space:]]+([A-Za-z0-9._-]+\/[A-Za-z0-9._-]+)@v[0-9]+.*/\1/')
tag=$(echo "$line" | sed -E 's/.*@((v[0-9]+)).*/\1/')
commit_hash=$(git ls-remote "https://github.com/$repo.git" "refs/tags/$tag" | awk '{print $1}')
[ -n "$commit_hash" ] && sed -i.bak -E "s|(uses:[[:space:]]+$repo@)$tag|\1$commit_hash|g" "$file" && git add "$file" && rm -f "$file.bak"
done

Related:

The mismanaged records in question belong to a completely separate set of files maintained by the Social Security Administration. They are the Social Security number files. Internally (within the SSA), it is called the Numident file. This is a file of every Social Security number that has ever been issued and some corresponding data about the person to whom that number was issued.

I'm in that file. You're in that file. Anyone who has ever had a Social Security number is in that file. The data in that file comes from the form you filled out when you got your first Social Security card. To refresh your memory (because most people reading this probably got their SSN card 50 or 60 years ago), the form asked for your name, your date and place of birth and your parents' names.

So, all those records (hundreds of millions of them) make up the Numident file. Now, I can't stress enough that the Numident file has nothing to do with other key files maintained by the SSA, such as earnings record files for all working Americans and the beneficiary payment files for everyone getting a monthly Social Security check.

Well the issue I’ve always found is that privacy is a sliding scale. At the time especially, everyone was after “absolute” privacy - i.e. everything Tor offers. But people were coming in to use Waterfox with that expectation and it wasn’t meeting it - but communicating how “much” privacy you’re being offered is difficult. I did settle on the current terminology and when people ask in user forums I try and make it clear that it’s a balance of usability and privacy - as much as possible without breaking websites.

Not sure I agree with your understanding wrt Waterfox not being about user control? Always has been and the feature set matches that and that hasn’t changed.
Wait, aren't you a developer of Waterfox? Why don't you just tell us...

>its model replaces the Web as-we-know-it with something closer to Compuserve.

Companies providing web hosting is already an established part of the web for a long time. People want to dedicate their time to the problems the site has and not to the problems the infra has. Not every site is going to want to setup their own servers at hundreds of points of presence around the world. Being able to use someone else's for free allows site operators to improve the user experience of their site for users for free. Even if such a deal ends people can still connect and use the original site directly.

I'm autistic and a significant percentage of my schooling was ignored by me because it held none of my interest. I practically made it a point to intentionally ignore certain information because I didn't see myself having any use for it in the future because I just didn't care about those things.

As it turns out, the part of me that cared about those things just had a stunted development and was behind. Certain subjects like language and history have an emotional and cultural significance that cannot be appreciated through only math. I highly doubt anyone could have explained this to me because I had thought that I was the sole decider of everything ever in my brain. I honestly probably still do think that way.
Galois theory is so useful that, besides its fundamental importance in algebra, it birthed the whole subject of Galois connections, which crop up all over the place, including in theoretical CS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galois_connection .

Is M^* Stewart's notation? I'm much more used to seeing it used for a dual space than a group of automorphisms. Conventions aside, it's a bit unfortunate in that it doesn't specify the field on which we're acting! I think that the notation Aut(L/M), or Gal(L/M) for a Galois extension, is more common.
I don't understand your comment -- are you implying the holocaust didn't happen or wasn't genocide? I want to steelman your argument but it's pretty hard.

Your other point is that you wonder whether a paper review is going to protect against mass killing. I'd say yes, that's quite possible. Anyone can post almost anything they want on any kind of blog or 4chan sub or reddit sub, and that's fine. But scientific papers are what people quote as "truth", and publishers have some responsibility in making sure that what they publish is based in evidence. This is especially true when it concerns topics that have, historically, led to genocide.
