XPath is a superb query language for XML (or anything that you can structure as a DOM) --- it is also, with some obscure exceptions, the only query language with serious adoption, so it's an easy choice and readily available in XML tools. The only caveat is there are various spec versions and most never added support for newer versions.

Standards are essential for a common market and competition and drivers for prosperity. This is nothing new. Your Iphone probably also says "RoHS", which marks compliance with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive. Mostly manufacturers try to comply with both EU and US standards at the same time. Typically the EU environmental and safety standards are a bit stricter. For example, in medicine, you first get FDA approval and then EMA approval, not just because it's a bigger market, but also because it's easier.

There’s two things going on here:

1. You’re, rightfully, pointing out the “kids these days” bias that societies tend to have. Humans are risk-averse by nature and old things register in our monkey brains as better. This is all true.

2. Some goods are actually worse. Objectively. Clothing is one of them.

I buy and curate menswear from the 1960s and 1970s. Full suits, trousers, vests, trench coats, you know. The quality is just not comparable to modern menswear. Almost all of these items look brand new, and when pressed, better than new clothes made today.

They’re much sturdier, with no fraying or pilling. Most hold their shape to an unbelievable degree - one pressing session will easily last for 3 months of wear.

The viscose and polyester stuff is better, too, but naturally not as long-living as cotton or wool. But still, I have seen 60 year old polyester trousers with no pilling. Modern trousers can barely survive 3 washes without pilling.
> There’s a reason we don’t want Germany and Japan arming themselves, see world history from 1933-1945 for why.

It's bizarre and frankly racist to think that that illustrates some immutable property of Germany and Japan rather than forces that can materialize in any country.

No this is wrong. Europe has nuclear power, weapons, and navies. And Europe has an obligation to spend on its own defense (which they have not fulfilled in some time).

The color text in Mass Effect goes a bit into the heat sink issue, in that the stealth systems on the Normandy couldn’t remain active indefinitely, since it would cook the occupants. Never comes up in game since flying the ship isn’t really a mechanic, it’s just a cutscene. Would have been neat to have a scene where everyone is slowly baking while hiding from the Reapers. Probably even got written and didn’t make the cut.

The ultimate problem with these dissolving plastics is that they are still plastic after they dissolve, it's just that they are invisible microplastics instead of visible objects. They largely aren't captured at WWTP and end up in the water supply.

From comments:

>No; in fact, in Guy’s article on this problem, he notes that there is a jump of 2 from t(124)=35 to t(125)=37

Huh. Can we actually prove t(N) is monotonic? Jumps like that seem like they could be one-offs in some cases.
The safest and best approach, as far as my limited parenting & school volunteering experience has demonstrated, is to go in with the assumption that the kids are just as smart as you and that they only suffer from lack of life experience.

Yes, the fact base kids have is limited due to limited experience & education, but they are able to learn and reason just as well as adolescents and adults, and should be treated like that. What they need is exposure to reasoning methods, clear explanations of logical fallacies, and necessary background information that will help them both articulate complex thoughts and set context for their reasoning.

I would argue that, in many cases, kids are "smarter" than adults because their lack of experience also correlates to increased creativity. Rather than pattern matching based on experience they'll frequently try out-of-the-box methods to solve problems -- this should never be discouraged.

The OP article doesn't discuss this, but it seems to me a likely explanation for someone getting crap levi's ordered on amazon?
I have the same knack with kids, I’ve had it forever. “Oh you’re going to be such a good parent” was something I heard constantly.

It’s different when one’s own kids, and it takes extra patience to have the same skill set as you do with “stranger” kids. Without getting into it too much, being in a position of “authority” with a “stranger” kid changes the dynamic as compared to one’s own kids.

I dunno if that makes sense, but I’ve found it to be true for me.

I also seemed to have figured it out with my own kids, it just takes more work and more patience.
> I was responding to a comment that called the same thing "pausless"

In my defense, I called it "~pauseless" (as in, roughly pauseless).
The word "fish" historically meant more or less any animal in the sea, which to my understanding included whales, seals, sea turtles, shrimp, shellfish, starfish, jellyfish, etc.

Phylogenetically, there is also a relevant group, but we call them "chordates" instead.
That's assuming otherwise zero growth, or other nations standing still or stuff like that.

Also, 10 years of constant 5% growth is a lot to ask for in general. Maybe not impossible, but really hard. Now, think that you need to have 5% growth in the first year after the earthquake, in a devastated nation. Infrastructure destroyed, people killed. Lots.

It sounds pretty near to impossible.

These numbers have some meaning you know. It's easy to type "5% growth". Much, much harder to actually achieve it.

How is the dead part of the population being replaced in this scenario? Who is achieving this growth if the population is decimated?
And the current incarnation of capitalism began in the 2008 financial crisis.
Just to clarify the slightly ambiguous title, it's that preschoolers can reason better than some adults thought they can, and not (as I first thought) that they can reason better than how we adults do our own thinking.
Technically correct, but the RNGs you're mentioning are essentially RNGs build on public key cryptography. And I don't think they're widely used, simply because they're slow and have no advantage over faster ones (the Dual EC stuff was, as far as I know, the only thing that was somewhat widely used, and, very obviously, nobody should be using that).
> "we pay for people to arm themselves against us"

Sounds like you want a completely isolationist trade policy. How has that worked out for the US in the past? The only way to never pay another country to arm themselves against us or any other country is to never give them money, and unless we force them at gunpoint to give us what we want that is not going to happen.

> "we pay for the defense of people who won't pay to defend themselves"

The EU doesn't spend 0% on defense. Many of them are NATO members who are increasing their spending and who have demonstrated that they'll follow us into war after we are attacked (Afghanistan as an example). The US gets far more in soft power/geopolitical benefits out of our European allies and NATO members than we put in.
Yeah, my understanding is that they are trying (and I think I remember succeeding so far?) to be revenue positive/sustainable from the beginning, and not trying to rely on "grow and make money later" that other companies used.

Which I prefer; I got burned by Neeva shutting down shortly after they started (for a pretty mild version of the word "burned", it cost me very little, but it was annoying).

This is nowhere present in that party's behavior over the last 50 years. No, not even DOGE, assuming the rule of law doesn't collapse completely they're going to cost us money because they've done things so obviously-poorly and illegally.

> the answer to Apple's quality problem is to begin baking QA back into the process in a meaningful way after letting it atrophy for the last decade or so.

As a former Apple employee of 13 years: Apple knows about the bugs. QA isn’t the problem.

A lot of people complain that their radar for some obvious bug isn’t getting noticed, and conclude that Apple must not be QA’ing, or not dogfooding their own product. This isn’t the case at all. I guarantee the bugs you care about are well known, and QA has already spotted them.

The reality is, they just don’t care. The train leaves the station in September. You’re either on it or you’re not. If you spent the year rewriting some subsystem, and it’s July and you have this huge list of bugs, there’s a go/no-go decision, and the answer is nearly always “go” (because no-go would mean reverting a ton of other stuff too, and that carries its own regression risk, etc.)

So instead there’s just an amount of bugginess that’s deemed acceptable. And so the software is released, everybody slaps high-fives, and the remaining bugs are punted to next year, where they will sit forever, because once we do one release with a known bug, it couldn’t be that important, right? After all, we shipped with it! Future/P2, never to be seen again.

An attempt was made to remedy this by pushing deadlines earlier in the cycle, to make room for more QA time, but that just introduced more perverse incentives: people started landing big features in later dot-releases where there’s less scrutiny, and even more tolerance for bugs.

The honest answer is that Apple needs to start giving a damn about the quality of what they’re pushing. As Steve once said at a pretty famous internal meeting, “you should be mad at your teammates for letting each other down like this”. And heads need to roll. I can only hope that they’re realizing this now, but I don’t feel like the culture under Tim works this way. People’s feelings are way too important, and necessary changes don't get made.
I managed to explode a 9x13 by placing the cooled dish on the stovetop to free up counter space. This wasn't initially a problem, the problem came when I turned on what I thought was the front burner to start cooking, but was actually the burner the 9x13 was straddling. The explosion was interesting, it didn't make a "bang" but rather a "pop" sound and the shattered glass flew all over the kitchen. It probably would have been worse, but the 9x13 was full of brownie that probably absorbed some of the kinetic energy.

It makes me wonder how glass cooktops avoid this problem. They have enormous uneven heating stresses every time they are used, and somehow manage to avoid flying apart.
Kid's are underestimated all the time. Some personal anecdotes that I think show off that kids know more that we expect of them:

My daughter routinely remembered things, while 3 and 4, that happened a year and sometimes longer ago. She would bring them up, like "last time we were here, was before my last (2nd) birthday". Me: "wow, how do you remember that?"

My friend recalls being ~2yo and deducing how to move a chair and pull a drawer to reach the top of the clothes dresser. After climbing to the top, she recalls sitting, enjoying the view, not knowing how to get down, and crying for help.

My very earliest memory is before I was two. It involved an inflatable weighted balloon, the one's typically with a clown on it and if you bat it down, it rocks back upright. I saw one that was a friendly cop. I can recall several elements of the memory. I recall playing with one of those colorful wire sculpture things where you slide the blocks around like an abacus on drugs, went over to the the balloon cop, and thought to myself, "that is a good guy, why would you a good guy on a toy you hit? It should be a clown." Then I smacked it and went over to see my mom who was at the counter. Looking back, that feels like a lot of reasoning for a <2yo. Years later, when telling my mom that story for the first time, she said that the building where that was was for appointments we had when I was a year and a half old.
I'd say download both the PDF and the XML. The PDF is easier to read, but the XML has more information.

In particular the XML shows earnings for every year. The PDF shows earnings for several recent years, and then from groups of years before that. I don't know if it is the same groupings for everyone but mine is grouping 1966-1980, 1981-1990, 1991-2000, 2001-2005, then the individual years up to 2024.

"I did a runner" British idiom means I ran away without paying. The only problem with "I did a water" is I don't know what "a water" is without context. If person A said "I did a shot" and person B said "I did a water", it would make perfect sense.
This isn't game changing? We ALREADY have biodegradable containers that degrade in salt water overnight and can be prevented from degrading with a coating that can then be breached by a scratch:

It's called paper. I've used paper products with a hydrophobic coating (which means plastic, consumers don't like wax coatings that much) for decades. They don't solve the problem, because the plastic coating still fills us with microplastics.

Maybe it cuts down on how much plastic is produced and thrown away, but we could have done this 20 years ago!

There's no conspiracy thwarting "game changing" research to maintain some status quo, though there ARE often political factions who push for maintenance of the status quo.

This is marketing. The people who write this stuff are marketers and they usually don't understand the research in the first place!

This is why, despite everyone insisting that there are hundreds of "This will revolutionize batteries" that everyone complains never materialize, we have actually seen them materialize as lithium batteries like doubling in capacity over a decade. The marketing material overpromised, though the research was fruitful.

Because it's marketing.

Dang. I've had a fantasy of painting several fake license plates all over the back of my hatchback to help confound these cameras, but:

'Part of Flock’s proprietary tech determines the make and model of the vehicle and also notes if there are bumper stickers, bike racks, any other unique markings that would help identify that vehicle. That generates a "vehicle fingerprint" for every car or truck'

So in just the same way that ad blockers and other anti-surveillance tech actually make your browser stand out, obfuscating your license plate would also make you stand out.
From around 8 years old (depending on the child), this is probably an accurate assumption. Many children younger than that do not have a fully-developed theory of mind to understand different perspectives on the same issue. This may not matter too much for natural science topics, but it does impact their ability to comprehend social or political issues.
Unfortunately the real world isn't black and white. Yes, according to the company policies, I should watch the world burn and do nothing, while looking at the company bleeding money due to customers SLA being broken. Of course, after submitting a ticket to get nmap approved, which takes days. Extra points if I'm on oncall, then racking that sweet incident money is great.

But the underlying SRE culture here is that, if you know what you are doing and have a functioning brain of a responsible person, you'd be forgiven a jump over the fence, if it means putting out a fire on the other side of it. We aren't kids.
It is a worthwhile first step. Yes we won't regain leadership without making follow on steps, but that is hardly newsworthy.
