The article also points out that only 1/4 of the classrooms are A/V-equipped. It might be a cost thing.
But it's only dangerous to be a carrier when you are amongst the unvaccinated, and those people have now made a conscious choice to expose themselves to the virus. At what point do we stop being responsible for other…
Have you considered drip irrigation? It was designed with desert agriculture in mind. Shade can also make a big difference.
Requiring a human being to be on the public record as personally and financially responsible for an AI's decisions would be a good start.
Interesting that the "7 GUIs" test hasn't been mentioned in the article or comments. IMO it's not a bad starting point for thinking about the bare minimum that a GUI framework might need to support, and for evaluating…
We might be seeing less of that subgenre these days because the general public is starting to realize that genetic engineering is sort of like AI/ML. It takes a lot of effort and expense to achieve mildly promising…
Is this by the same people who made LÖVE? The naming and use of LuaJIT suggest it. I love LÖVE. It's a great way to throw together rapid prototypes, and Lua is a joy to work with. Exciting to see a 3D framework along…
The park services have a similar problem, but the solution is simple: * No permanent structures. * You need to move every X days. * You cannot stay in the park/forest/etc for more than Y days/month. Cities could forbid…
Couldn't you make a case that grades should reflect how people will actually be evaluated in their adult lives? I.e. capriciously, arbitrarily, and often based on a random person's mood at some random time?
You can't use Facebook to destroy Facebook. Their terms of service are not immutable laws. If the status quo stops working for them, they can restore old data and alter the bargain further.
I wonder when the change happened. It seems like there's a fairly broad consensus now, but different people seem to cite different time periods for when things took a bad turn. I had consistently great experiences ~3-8…
This does not jive with my experience at all. Maybe it's because my age bracket still remembers flip phones. Maybe it's because I'm upfront about my own tech habits. Maybe it's because I swipe left on profiles that have…
Chin up, mate. In the US, I'm starting to hear a lot more "I wish I did that", and a lot less "that's weird what are you hiding?" People are starting to come around as they and their family members start to have more…
There are no conclusive numbers on how long they last, because there has not been a significant drop-off in efficacy yet. There is some evidence that booster shots after 6 months can provide better even better…
But that's only true after they read you the Miranda rights. Officers need to say those words so that the accused understands that their statements will be taken seriously in the immediate future. It's not supposed to…
Not necessarily. It's not easy to find a boss who you genuinely trust to consider your best interests, for example. Out of curiosity, what sort of "non-monetary" benefits were you thinking about? There's usually not a…
Yeah, it's probably been 3-4 years since I've heard anyone use the word "Xoogler" in a positive or unironic way. Darn the wheel of the world! Why must it continually turn over?
Your telecom actually is responsible for moderating your usage - try consistently pirating media without a good blocklist in the US and see how long you keep your service. Most providers will cut you off after a…
It is a problem of their own making. If they cannot manage unmoderated posting without hurting a lot of people, why should they be allowed to run a business based on unmoderated posting? Would you say it is a catch-22…
Way to describe the engineer/business disconnect. You are proud of the complex problems which you have solved over the years. The business is proud of the little widget that made everyone's jobs a bit easier. I've seen…
I think I remember being taught in a college biology class that cannabinoids may have evolved as an anti-microbial / anti-insecticide defence. Sort of like capsaicin, or aromatics like lavender. So this doesn't surprise…
Many places have a separate "test" or "beta" environment, with less resources and maybe a small database with spoofed entries. Maybe we should get into the habit of going all Shiva/Brahma on that environment every week…
We badly need legislation to force the IRS to send every taxpayer a bill which they can pay. They certainly have enough information from employers, banks, estimated payments from contractors, etc. Otherwise, how would…
Yes, sugar is basically poison, especially the large quantities of processed sugars that we regularly comsume. Cutting out candy, soda, sugar-in-coffee, etc. can bring a lot of very noticeable benefits if you were…
Have you tried telling them about the great BBQ and blues? I dunno what to tell you. After touring almost all of our great states, the only constant seems to be that you get what your neighbors vote for.
