Less area means less sources of interference for others (this property is also true in the other direction). So the attenuation reduces the signal area, and stronger attenuation lets the transmitter be "strong" in the house without the downsides in congested areas.

It's not that complicated. In 2016 America though Bernie was a crazy leftist, and didn't vote for him. He did pick up more votes than expected as a protest against Hillary, and he was just starting to get buy-in on his policies.

Then he went out and sold America on some social democrat ideas. He did ok in 2020, but lost, partially because Democratic voters were afraid that Republicans would see him as a crazy leftist, and partially because Biden had more support from some demographics.

Yeah, there's some billionaire pushback, but Bernie chaired the budget committee. It's not like he was whacked by some billionaire hit squad, he just wasn't quite popular enough to win the presidential primaries.
Yes, this is great! They gave me a similar model under the same deal, and it had a fan that would ramp up and down all day and night.
I presume you are familiar with the standard counter argument that the Constitution says "elected" rather than "serve"?

Here's a Constitutional law professor arguing 25 years ago that Bill Clinton was constitutionally eligible to run again as VP: https://web.archive.org/web/20051001004410/http://archives.c...

It's easy to claim that Trump running as VP would violate the spirit of the 12th amendment, but I think there is genuine doubt as to how the Supreme Court might rule.

I mean, this is exactly the kind of thinking that got us here. We just attribute everything to disinformation and throw our hands up as if none of this was avoidable. I'm convinced that people on the right were called Nazi's long enough that some people literally think _every_ one of them is a literal, actual Nazi. To the point where they think there's no hope in ever reaching them.

I saw this coming years ago. The rhetoric on both sides was never going to end up in anything remotely resembling healthy. Both sides are too busy pointing fingers now to really want to do anything about it.

How in the world does pardoning multiple fraudsters, kidnapping people for deportation based on their writings in newspapers, threatening to annex other sovereign nations, and threatening to forcibly depopulate an entire nation, at all reflect enlightenment values??
It's more than suitable if you don't care where the debris lands.
Reading _First Principles_ by Thomas Ricks a few years ago was an eye opener -- the founding fathers and national civic culture definitely drew deeply from enlightenment thinking and further back classical civics and philosophy.

Towards the end of his book, Ricks notes the populist / religious backlash to enlightenment thinking that was already underway by the early 19th century.

It's strange to realize the post WWII America most of us have lived may really be exceptional, and how many either don't understand how big a part the liberal order has played in making America great since FDR, or have a different vision of greatness that requires tearing much of what we've enjoyed down.
We should treat the Free Palestine and Tesla protesters the same way J6 protesters were treated. Throw them in prison until the next Democrat president pardons them.
But a government is supposed to tell you what to say, think, and do. This dictatorial government is actually enforcing that you say and think what they want, unlike all the others.
>Anecdotally I've noticed these sorts of people much less often, at least on here as of late. Methinks their deniability isn't so plausible any more.

I assume you're at least as upset by the cleanup that NYT and WaPo have done to Trump's utterances. During his helicopter news conferences, we'd see and hear what he said, and it was nothing like what was reported.
It also seems possible that students do better on tests when the air is cleaner, but that doesn't necessarily mean the students learned more.

Imagine if some schools installed air conditioning in their gym one year. Running times around an indoor track would improve considerably, but mostly because conditions at the point of testing improved. Not necessarily because the air conditioning made the students actually improve their stamina or speed.

Of course.

This is what happens when “rule of law” is subverted on the generational scale — eg, by enabling illicit mass migration opposed by the majority of the people. They eventually feel that appeals to “rule of law” are merely emotional manipulation used against them and stop caring in pursuit of a solution to what they perceive as a problem.

What did people expect to happen?
> Signed integer overflow is undefined because it’s not even clear if you can detect it happens in all implementations. Do you want a conditional after every integer add?

Huh? You can just make it implementation defined, and most implementations would declare it to work like twos-complement wrap-around. Just like unsigned integer overflow is already defined in the standard.

Where does the conditional you are talking about come from? Unsigned integer overflow doesn't have any conditionals either.

Compilers like GCC already support wrap-around for signed integers with a command line option. It's spelled "-fwrapv", and I don't think it involves any conditionals.

> ...If only we could do something like: dry run and surface all the required permissions, then grant them in one fell (granular) sweep.

The problem with that is that it can be difficult to know what you need, and it may be impossible to simulate in any practical sense. Like, sure, I can stand up a pair of test systems and fabricate every scenario I can possibly imagine, but my employer does want me to do other things this month. And what happens when one of the systems involves a third party?

Really, the need is to be able to provision access after the relationship is established. It's weird that you need a completely new secret to change access. Imagine if this were Linux and in order to access a directory you had to provision a new user to do it? How narrow do you really think user security access would be in practical terms then?
> how the current administration views the position of the USD

I found [0] helpful. It was written by the head of the administration's council of econ advisors (Stephen Miran), and appears to align with the admin's actions.

A recent, brief interview with an analyst on German public media ([1]) supports the idea that this is the guiding policy.

[0] recommends a gradual approach, to avoid a shock, which the admin doesn't seem to care about, so perhaps some understand the risks and others don't.

> "free-speech does not mean freedom from consequences"

This is a actually a slogan in support of free speech. Of course people are allowed to say transphobic things online or downtown, but that would surely make some of their coworkers uncomfortable and that's pretty disqualifying from most employment. You're allowed to say things, but colleagues are allowed to respond in kind within the law.
What individuals may or may not understand is irrelevant. The professional staff at Treasury or Commerce will include a variety of people with a lot of relevant knowledge and experience.

Then there are people who clearly don’t understand (but should know better) like Navarro.

The beliefs of the man at the top, which are not particularly fixed and vary from hour to hour according to what has most recently been tweeted at him, are the only beliefs that matter.

He is not known to be a deep thinker about matters of international economics so I wouldn’t expect much!
> Exactly. The classic example is invalid pointer deref. It’s too costly to check every deref against every allocation (outside of special debug modes). So the system usually can only detect if there is a virtual memory page fault, in which case it can crash.

You could still define what happens.

Eg you could define that whatever error might happen because of invalid pointer deref can't travel back in time. (UB famously can travel back in time: UB at any time during the execution makes the whole execution UB.)
> Some people actually just have principles!

Right, but words like `absolutist` mean something really strong that is not achievable in reality, and I don't think you would disagree very much that the majority of self professed free speech absolutists like Musk, do not actually hold anything near such a view.

This is actually due to an attack on the weakness of free speech. The zone is being flooded with shit, as the phrase goes, to the point that words don't mean anything. The moment a term starts having some meaning that people can derive direction from, the propagandists start using the term incorrectly everywhere.

This is really unfortunate, and I think your instructor should read it.

It sounds like your instructor has confused homework with quizzes, and the cheating issue demands some rethinking of the course pace and assessment system.

In physics and related fields, I have found fully worked problems to be very valuable. If your textbook includes some of these, I recommend reviewing them and working similar practice problems if possible. I wonder if things like supplementary texts, khan academy, or tutorials on youtube might help as well.

As you note, systems like ChatGPT could be helpful for explaining or working through problems, but obviously you won't learn anything if you rely on them for doing your own problem sets.
I'm working on an interactive book that introduces young readers to the world of entrepreneurship. Readers get to join the protagonist, Daphne, on a fun, week-long adventure launching her own mini-businesses. Readers help her make smart decisions, solve fun challenges, and learn about money and problem-solving in the process. Featuring several storylines in a single book, readers learn about the fundamentals of business, smart saving, and the rewards of creative effort.

The book has been a fun endeavor in both writing the manuscript and code! On the latter, I wrote an exporter for Twinery to Org Mode and an Emacs Org export backend to do the reverse.

The book is currently open to beta readers - Happy to let a few more in through the sign up page here: https://tendollaradventure.com/#get-notified

You can support free speech in the abstract, end up defending certain people whose views you hate, and still come up with a good amount of respect. The ACLU is able to maintain respect despite helping some pretty terrible people in court.

There's just a cohort of people who claim to be in favor of free speech, but also use it as a defense to associate themselves with people they really don't need to. Even the worst people in the world need _a_ lawyer, your local fascist doesn't need a booster on Twitter. There's a spectrum and subjectivity here of course.

"Free speech" has turned into a fun little bad faith thing to throw into arguments where it (for most people) doesn't belong. And even for fellow travelers, these people arguing in bad faith tend to throw in some other stupid garbage into their arguments! So it gets a bad rap, as an indicator that an argument is about to get stupid.
I am finishing up a 32 year old stretch project (as of this month). 99.9% sure I nailed it. Technically a 42 year old project, but it took me 10 years to find the right way to think about it and craft a formal definition.

An epic (for me) black triangle moment approaches! (Discovered that term here on HN.) An algorithmic triad the color of space without light is a poetic, but not misleading description.

The U.S. Supreme Court has never struck down a constitutional amendment, that is true.

But in other common law countries, like India, whose legal system is very similar to the U.S., have had cases where the Supreme Court struck down a constitutional amendment.

For more on this, see: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_structure_doctrine

With regard to the Indian case above: while I support the goal of judgement, as the goal of the judgment itself is good, the idea of a Supreme Court overriding a constitutional amendment is quite startling.

The supreme courts of several other countries, including Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Uganda have copied this doctrine.

Who knows when the U.S. Supreme Court will decide to copy this doctrine as well.

They do and have been exploiting it for a while.

“House Democrats are ramping up their aggressive strategy of conducting town halls in Republican-held districts, vying to exploit the GOP’s advised moratorium on the events to make inroads with frustrated voters, pick up battleground seats, and flip control of the House in next year’s midterms.

“A number of Democrats who ventured this month into GOP territory said they liked what they saw: anxious voters who are up in arms over both President Trump’s dismantling of the federal government and the reluctance of the majority Republicans to provide a check on executive power.

“Encouraged by their experiences, Democrats say they not only intend to return to those battleground districts, they’re also eyeing plans to broaden their range in the weeks and months to come. The Democrats’ campaign arms, in some cases, are helping to coordinate the effort.”

The demographic across the board works less today than in the past. They might accrue debt, but they're not working it off while at college.

Further, you're even more wrong than you think you are.

The average student at college is now painfully average. This is because the average student is admitted to college at rates higher than ever before.

College participation rate is higher than in the past as well.
