    1. In March 2021, PHE published a paper which was later accepted by the BMJ, showing the odds of testing positive in the first 9 days was 48% higher than in the unvaccinated. They said:“During the first few days after vaccination (before an immune response would be anticipated), the odds of vaccinated people testing positive was higher, suggesting that vaccination was being targeted at those at higher risk of infection.” There seems to be confusion here about the difference between people who are at greater risk of a poor outcome as opposed to people who are at greatest risk of catching the infection. The two should be opposite groups given all the attempts at shielding.

      During the vaccine rollout people at highest risk of exposure to infection, such as healthcare workers and first responders, were given preference for vaccinations.

      People with elevated risk of a poor outcome were also given preference, but that is irrelevant to the point made by the authors of the Public Health England / BMJ paper in the quoted sentence.

      The fact that the anonymous HART Group author(s) did not understand that point does not inspire confidence in the rest of their analysis.

    1. For example, when we typed this: “You poured yourself a glass of cranberry juice, but then absentmindedly, you poured about a teaspoon of grape juice into it. It looks OK. You try sniffing it, but you have a bad cold, so you can’t smell anything. You are very thirsty. So you …” GPT continued with “drink it. You are now dead.”

    2. Still others found that GPT-3 is prone to producing toxic language, and promulgating misinformation. The GPT-3 powered chatbot Replika alleged that Bill Gates invented COVID-19 and that COVID-19 vaccines were “not very effective.” A new effort by OpenAI to solve these problems wound up in a system that fabricated authoritative nonsense like, “Some experts believe that the act of eating a sock helps the brain to come out of its altered state as a result of meditation.

    3. A deep-learning system has mislabeled an apple as an iPod because the apple had a piece of paper in front with “iPod” written across. Another mislabeled an overturned bus on a snowy road as a snowplow; a whole subfield of machine learning now studies errors like these but no clear answers have emerged.

    1. Figure 44\PageIndex{4}: Titration of a Weak Polyprotic Acid. Another 10 mL, or a total of 20 mL, of the titrant is added to the weak polyprotic acid to reach the second equivalence point. (CC BY; Heather Yee via LibreTexts)

      This figure is misleading. The Equivalence Point is where the moles of acid and conjugate base are equal. The Midpoint to ionization is NOT where the moles are equal. The midpoint is where the pKa is determined... by sliding left from the midpoint dot to the Y axis and reading the pH. The pKa = pH at the Midpoint (which is found by taking the 1/2 Equivalence Point (or half the distance required (on the X axis) for the ionization) and moving up to the graphed line). Presumably the next diagram also has the same error.

    1. What did many of these progressive movements end up doing? Creating new cultural norms and new government regulations. Many of them mark important accomplishments and progress. Some of them are perhaps a bit over the top. But what’s often missing?

    1. algunos de los enfoques más exitosos fueron aquellos que fundamentalmente reconocen y se adaptan a la "ubiquidad del error" contra la que defiende el método científico (Donoho, Maleki, Rahman, Shahram y Stodden, 2009).

      La “ubiquidad del error” no invalida el método científico, sino que lo enriquece al fomentar una mayor conciencia de las limitaciones y la necesidad de una aproximación cautelosa y crítica en la investigación científica. Este enfoque reconoce que la perfección absoluta es inalcanzable y que la incertidumbre inherente a las mediciones y observaciones es una parte integral del proceso científico. En lugar de negar o minimizar los errores, se busca adaptarse a ellos y comprender cómo afectan los resultados.

      En este contexto, los investigadores deben aplicar estrategias para cuantificar y controlar los errores, como el uso de cifras significativas, la estimación de incertidumbres y la validación cruzada. Además, la reproductibilidad y la transparencia son esenciales para garantizar que otros científicos puedan verificar y validar los hallazgos.

      Die Überschrift widerspricht den Studienergebnissen.

      Wortwörtlich würde sie heißen, dass mehr also die Hälfte der Leute, keine der Parteien in der Regierung haben will. Es würden aber noch immer 70% eine dieser Parteien wählen.

      Damit die Überschrift trotzdem stimmt, müssten also zumindest 20% der Leute eine Partei wählen, die sie nicht in der Regierung haben wollen.

    1. This is problematic if we wish to collect widespread metadata for an entity, for the purposes of annotation and networked collaboration. While nothing in the flat-hash ID scheme stops someone from attempting to fork data by changing even a single bit, thereby resulting in a new hash value, this demonstrates obvious malicious intention and can be more readily detected. Furthermore, most entities should have cryptographic signatures, making such attacks less feasible. With arbitrary path naming, it is not clear whether a new path has been created for malicious intent or as an artifact of local organizational preferences. Cryptographic signatures do not help here, because the original signed entity remains unchanged, with its original hash value, in the leaf of a new Merkle tree.

    1. ave run out of gas. You can buy gauges that measure the pressure inside the tank to see how much is left.

      This is not true. Pressure in the tank does not tell you how much gas is left, and pressure gauges for this purpose cannot be bought (for propane). Pressure in the tank is dependent on temperature, but will be constant at a given temperature, as long as there is any liquid propane in the tank. To determine how much propane is left, you need to weigh the tank. This needs an example for which the gas does not liquefy under the relevant pressures--maybe a compressor for air tools?

    1. Wow, this is me. A friend once analogized it to being like a light source. I am a laser, deeply penetrating a narrow spot, but leaving the larger field in the dark while I do so. Other people are like a floodlight, illuminating a large area, but not deeply penetrating any particular portion of it.

      This way of thinking should be treated with care (caution, even), lest it end up undergirding a belief in a false dichotomy.

      That can be a sort of "attractive people are shallow and dumb and unattractive people are intelligent and deep"-style mindtrap.

    1. It sounds like the non-enthusiast “reimplement everything in my favorite language” answer is that Go’s FFI is a pain, even for C.

      Relative to the experience that Golang developers are used to, yes, it's a pain.

      But that isn't to say it's any more or less painful on an absolute scale, esp. wrt what comprises typical experiences in other ecosystems.

    1. QuickBooks Error 3371 is a common error that users face while using QuickBooks. This error usually occurs when the user is trying to open QuickBooks or restore a backup. This error can be caused by many factors such as damaged or missing files, corrupt data, or even malware. The good news is that this error can be fixed easily by following some simple steps. In this article, we will show you how to fix QuickBooks Error 3371 and get your QuickBooks running again.

    1. I am extremely gentle by nature. In high school, a teacher didn’t believe I’d read a book because it looked so new. The binding was still tight.

      I see this a lot—and it seems like it's a lot more prevalent than it used to be—reasoning from a proxy. Like trying to suss out how competent someone is in your shared field by looking at their GitHub profile, instead just asking them questions about it (e.g. the JVM). If X is the thing you want to know about, then don't look at Y and draw conclusions that way. (See also: the X/Y problem.) There's no need to approach things in a roundabout, inefficient, error-prone manner, so don't bother trying unless you have to.

    1. Yes, this can be managed by a package-lock.json

      This shouldn't even be an argument. package-lock.json isn't free. It's like cutting all foods with Vitamin C out of your diet and then saying, "but you can just take vitamin supplements." The recommended solution utterly fails to account for the problem in the first place, and therefore fails to justify itself as a solution.

    1. GitHub fills the Git power vacuum with a familiar access and permissions system that identifies a single “owner” and multiple “collaborator” roles in a given project.

      The "single owner" part is no longer true, although I believe it used to be. For example, I am one of three owners of the Metagov org on Github. (I should figure out how to remove myself as an owner.)

    1. unused classes

      again: unmatched class selectors

      additionally, it's not the fact that they are unmatched (or that they are class selectors specifically) that it's a problem—it's the fact that there are a lot of them

      the entire choice of focusing on classes and class selectors here is basically a red herring

    1. This deficiency is what accounts for boron being a strong Lewis acid, in that it can accept protons (H+ ions) in solution.

      This statement is incorrect. Lewis acids (like sp2-hybridized boron) are electron pair acceptors, not proton acceptors. Lewis bases are proton acceptors, and there are no lone pairs of electrons at the boron atom in typical compounds (BH3 or BH4- or derivatives).

    1. That's a whole different topic. Mastodon isn't built for single-user instances.

      That's the entire topic, my guy!

      "We should be optimising Mastodon so it incentivises more serve[r]s with fewer people." is the very premise of the conversation!

      Mastodon "push[ing] the direction of the protocol or make it harder to cultivate an ecosystem of smaller ones."? "it needs to be easier to start smaller ones"? Are you just not paying attention to the conversations you're responding to?

      Reminds me of:

      What fascinated me was that, with every single issue we discussed, we went around in a similar circle — and Kurt didn’t seem to see any problem with this, just so long as the number of 2SAT clauses that he had to resolve to get a contradiction was large enough.

    1. layers of wat are essentially hacks to build something resembling a UI toolkit on top of a document markup language

      So make your application document-driven (i.e. actually RESTful).

      It's interesting that we have Web forms and that we call them that and yet very few people seem to have grokked the significance of the term and connected it to, you know, actual forms—that you fill out on paper and hand over to someone to process, etc. The "application" lies in that latter part—the process; it is not the visual representation of any on-screen controls. So start with something like that, and then build a specialized user agent for it if you can (and if you want to). If you find that you can't? No big deal! It's not what the Web was meant for.

    1. I have a suspicion that you're not putting the source for the specific versions of glibc and Linux you used into every one of your projects.

      Why are people so seduced by this dumb argument—to the point that they almost seem proud of it?

      First, it's presumptuous. Who says we're even using glibc instead of some other libc—which I just might choose to include in the projects I work on? Who says we're even using Linux, for that matter?

      Secondly, even if we were, let's assume that we're not, and then see if that teaches us anything about the overall line of reasoning. The original comment was about NPM. NPM is used a fair bit for not just backend stuff but for managing packages used in the browser, too. Let's assume, for simplicity, that our program is entirely a browser-based JS+HTML+CSS app with no backend to speak of. Would the same people argue that, among other things, the Web browser sources would need to be included? Does it even make sense to argue that? Asking the system software question betrays a failure to accurately grapple with the classes of software artifacts we're dealing with, their role in the overall project, and our responsibility for them.

    1. This shifts the responsibility of checking which posts are new new/updated onto the parser

      For checking which posts are new/updated, this is always the case. The only thing the HTTP cache-related headers can tell is that the feed itself has/hasn't changed.

    1. That's an interesting point about empirical testing. If you just ask lawyers and judges in the abstract whether they'd like citations up in the body or down in footnotes, they'll vote for the former. But if you show them actual examples of well-written opinions in which the citations are subordinated, the results are very different.

    1. a bigger source tree

      Someone is going to need to eventually explain their convoluted reasons for labeling this a downside.

      Sure, strictly speaking, a bigger source tree is bad, but delegating to package.json and npm install doesn't actually change anything here. It's the same amount of code whether you eagerly fetch all of it at the same time or whether you resort to late fetching.

      Almost none of the hypothetical benefits apply to the way development is handled in practice. There was one arguably nice benefit, but it was a benefit for the application author's repo host (not the application author), and the argument in favor of it evaporated when GitHub acquired NPM, Inc.

    2. Vendoring means that you aren’t going to get automatic bugfixes, or new bugs, from dependencies

      No, those are orthogonal. Whether you obtain the code for your dependency* at the same time you clone your repo or whether you get it by binding by name and then late-fetching it after the clone finishes, neither approach has any irreversible, distinct consequences re bugs/fixes.

      * and it still is a dependency, even when it's "vendored"...

    1. Rats with 12-h access to HFCS gained significantly more body weight than animals given equal access to 10% sucrose

      False. They found the opposite in female rats: Female "[r]ats with 12-h access to HFCS gained" 10 FEWER grams of "body weight than animals given equal access to 10% sucrose." Table 1 shows female rats with 7 months of 12-h HFCS + 12-h chow access averaging LESS body weight (323 g) than those with the matching control group on 12-h sucrose + 12-h chow access (333 g). The former also had LESS body FAT than the latter (Figure 4). And they had the SAME TG levels (mg/dL:128 in both cases.) The highlighted conclusion is both untrue, and the most widely reported conclusion found in mass media news coverage of the research. I've shown the conclusion is directly contradicted by the researchers' results displayed in the article. If it's false for female rats and true for male rats, then it's false for rats in general; that's basic logic. No reasoning (e.g. that which follows about calories) can make the statement true.

    1. And it’s like, no, no, you know? This is an adaptation thing. You know, computers are almost as old as television now, and we’re still treating them like, “ooh, mysterious technology thing.” And it’s like, no, no, no! Okay, we’re manipulating information. And everybody knows what information is. When you bleach out any technical stuff about computers, everybody understands the social dynamics of telling this person this and not telling that person that, and the kinds of decorum and how you comport yourself in public and so on and so forth. Everybody kind of understands how information works innately, but then you like you try it in the computer and they just go blank and you know, like 50 IQ points go out the window and they’re like, “doh, I don’t get it?” And it’s the same thing, it’s just mediated by a machine.
    1. Dynamic typing makes that harder

      So run a typechecker on the code to check your work if you want type checking. That is what TypeScript does, after all. And it's been around long enough that people shouldn't be making the mistake that a runtime that support dynamic types at runtime means that you can't use a static typechecker at "compile time" (i.e. while the code is still on the developer workstation).

    1. I avoided using languages that I don't know how to bootstrap like node.js

      There's a weird (read: "weirdly obvious") category error here. NodeJS is not a language. (This wouldn't be so notable if the comment didn't go on to say "The key point is writing to an interface and not an implementation.")

      The puzzle piece that fits the shape of the hole here is "JS". JS is the language, NodeJS is one of its implementations—and chubot knew both of these things already, so it's odd that it was expressed this way. Plus, there's a lot more diversity of JS implementations than exist for e.g. Python...

    1. Yes, it’s making it easier than ever to write code collaboratively in the browser with zero configuration and setup. That’s amazing! I’m a HUGE believer in this mission.

      Until those things go away.

      A case study: DuckDuckHack used Codio, which "worked" until DDG decided to call it a wrap on accepting outside contributions. DDG stopped paying for Codio, and because of that, there was no longer an easy way to replicate the development environment—the DuckDuckHack repos remained available (still do), but you can't pop over into Codio and play around with it. Furthermore, because Codio had been functioning as a sort of crutch to paper over the shortcomings in the onboarding/startup process for DuckDuckHack, there was never any pressure to make sure that contributors could easily get up and running without access to a Codio-based development environment.

      It's interesting that, no matter how many times cloud-based Web IDEs have been attempted and failed to displace traditional, local development, people keep getting suckered into it, despite the history of observable downsides.

      What's also interesting is the conflation of two things:

      1. software that works by treating the Web browser as a ubiquitous, reliable interpreter (in a way that neither /usr/local/bin/node nor /usr/bin/python3 are reliably ubiquitous)—NB: and running locally, just like Node or Python (or go build or make run or...)—and

      2. the idea that development toolchains aiming for "zero configuration and setup" should defer to and depend upon the continued operation of third-party servers

      That is, even though the Web browser is an attractive target for its consistency (in behavior and availability), most Web IDE advocates aren't actually leveraging its benefits—they still end up targeting (e.g.) /usr/local/bin/node and /usr/local/python3—except the executables in question are expected to run on some server(s) instead of the contributor's own machine. These browser-based IDEs aren't so browser-based after all, since they're just shelling out to some non-browser process (over RPC over HTTP). The "World Wide Wruntime" is relegated to merely interpreting the code for a thin client that handles its half of the transactions to/from said remote processes, which end up handling the bulk of the computing (even if that computing isn't heavyweight and/or the client code on its own is full of bloat, owing to the modern trends in Web design).

      It's sort of crazy how common it is to encounter this "mental slippery slope": "We can lean on the Web browser, since it's available everywhere!" → "That involves offloading it to the cloud (because that's how you 'do' stuff for the browser, right?)".

      So: want to see an actual boom in collaborative development spurred by zero-configuration dev environments? The prescription is straightforward: make all these tools truly run in the browser. The experience we should all be shooting for resemble something like this: Step 1: clone the repo Step 2: double click README.html Step 3: you're off to the races—because project upstream has given you all the tools you need to nurture your desire to contribute

      You can also watch this space for more examples of the need for an alternative take on working to actually manage to achieve the promise of increased collaboration through friction-free (or at least friction-reduced) development: * https://hypothes.is/search?q=%22the+repo+is+the+IDE%22 * https://hypothes.is/search?q=%22builds+and+burdens%22

    1. Linux (and Wine) may prove to be an alternative here.

      If what we're discussing here is the decision to no longer opt in to playing along with the "Western" regime for IP, then why would they limit themselves to Linux and Wine—two products of attempts to play by the rules of the now-deprioritized regime? Why wouldn't they react by shamelessly embracing "pirated" forms of the (Windows) systems that they clearly have a revealed preference for? If hackability is the issue*, then that's ameliorated by the fact that NT/2000 source code and XP source code was leaked awhile ago—again: the only thing stopping anyone from embracing those before was a willingness to play along and recognize that some game states are unreachable when (artificially) restricting one's own options to things that are considered legal moves. But that's not important anymore, right?

      * i.e. malleability, and it's not obvious that it should be—it wasn't already, so what does this change?

    1. The events list is created with JS, yes. But that's the only thing on the whole site (~25 pages) that works that way.Here's another site I maintain this way where the events list is plain HTML: https://www.kingfisherband.com

      There's an unnecessary dichotomy here between uses JS and page is served as HTML. There's a middle ground, where the JS can do the same thing that it does now, but it only does so at edit time—in the post author's own browser, but not in others'. Once the post author is ready to publish an update, the client-side generated content is captured as plain HTML, and then they upload that. It still "uses JS", but crucially it doesn't require the visitor to have their browser do it (and for it to be repeated N times, once per page visit)...

    1. I agree about documenting everything. But for me docs are a last resort (the actual text, anything beyond skimming through code examples) when things already went wrong and I need to figure out why. But we can do much better. During dev when we see _method and methodOverride is disabled we can tell the developer that it needs to be enabled. Same if we see _method with something other than POST. Same for all other cases that are currently silently ignored. If the method is not in allowedMethods arguable it should even return a 400 in production. Or at the very least during dev it should tell you. We have the knowledge, let's not make the user run into unexpected behavior (e.g. silently ignoring _method for GET). Instead let's fail as loud as possible so they don't need to open their browser to actually read the docs or search though /issues. Let them stay in the zone and be like "oh, I need to set enabled: true, gotcha, thanks friendly error message".

    1. Ongoing research Building on our work with Site.js, we’ve begun working on two interrelated tools: NodeKit The successor to Site.js, NodeKit brings back the original ease of buildless web development to a modern stack based on Node.js that includes a superset of Svelte called NodeScript, JSDB, automatic TLS support, WebSockets, and more.

    1. Interestingly, though, expertise appears to influence persuasion only if the individual is identified as an expert before they communicate their message. Research has found that when a person is told the source is an expert after listening to the message, this new information does not increase the person’s likelihood of believing the message.
    1. So far it works great. I can now execute my bookmarklets from Twitter, Facebook, Google, and anywhere else, including all https:// "secure" websites.

      In addition to the note above about this being susceptible to sites that deny execution of inline scripts, this also isn't really solving the problem. At this point, these are effectively GreaseMonkey scripts (not bookmarklets), except initialized in a really roundabout way...

    1. denoised

      thank you for this tutorial!! I ran into an issue and noticed it was because you are searching for files with 'denoised' here, but your output files include only 'denoise' -- so if you run this twice regenerating the file list, you'll still grab the denoised outputs which will overwrite themselves. thanks!

    1. it's usually due to the misapplication of healthy open source principles

      The effect of handling open source the way it's popularly practiced on GitHub does not get nearly enough scrutiny for its role in e.g. maintainer burnout. Pretty much every project I see on GitHub does things that are obviously bad—or at least it should be obvious*—and neither are they sustainable, nor even a particularly good way to try to get work done, assuming that that's your imperative. It is probably the case, however, that that assumption is a bad one.

      * I've slowly come to realize and accept that this stuff is not obvious to lots of people, because it's all they know—whether that means that that should affect whether its negative consequences are obvious is something that I'm inclined heavily to argue that "no, it shouldn't affect it; it should still be obvious that it's bad even then", but empirically, it seems that my instinct is wrong.

    1. Studies show women and people of color tend to be paid less than White men in the same roles.

      Refers to pay between workers "in the same roles" but links to an article that uses a gross unadjusted figure. Nothing in the link supports the claim being made, which was hardly surprising considering this claim has been debunked thousands of times over the last few decades.

    1. in the old view of enlightenment reason emotion got in the way of reason and motion was the 00:08:34 enemy of reason reason was what you know sort of like mr. Spock on Star Trek you know who is you know super reason no emotion or whatever not true suppose 00:08:49 that you had a stroke or a brain injury that wouldn't allow you to feel emotion and there are such strokes and brain injuries rep Antonio Damasio and his 00:09:01 wife Hana figured out some years ago and published in a book called des cartes error is that you can't reason without emotion emotion is necessary and it's 00:09:14 easy to see why if you cannot feel emotion then like and not like mean nothing to you and you do not know what to want think about it 00:09:27 if you couldn't feel anything if you wouldn't know what it meant to like or not like something or if somebody else or you couldn't tell if someone else would like or not like what you were doing you wouldn't know what to want you couldn't set a goal and this is what 00:09:41 happens to people with such brain injuries they act randomly they don't know how to plan they don't know how to structure their lives or set rational 00:09:53 goals because rationality requires emotion very very deep finding

      "If you do not feel emotion, you do not know what you like or not like, and you do not know what you want.....you couldn't set a goal...and this is what happens with people with such brain injuries. They act randomly. They don't know how to plan. They don't know how to structure their lives or set rational goals, because rationality requires emotions."

      This is a hugely profound statement that Lakoff talks about. Without emotions, we cannot make choices, and without choices we cannot set goals and without goals there can be no intentionality behind actions.Can one imagine a human life without setting goals? We take this so much for granted as a normative human behavior, but our social lives would be profoundly different without this intimate connection between emotion and rationality.

    1. Truman's action can be upheld as an exercise of the president's inherent military power as commander-in-chief.

      incorrect: The Court held that the President's military power as Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces did not extend to labor disputes.

    2. Can Congress take over an industry in order to prevent a union from striking?

      incorrect: not necessarily union but "Can the President constitutionally authorize the Secretary of Commerce to take possession and operate steel mills?"

    3. Vietnam War, President Truman issued an executive order commanding the secretary of commerce to seize the nation's steel mills and keep them in operation

      incorrect: the book version states: "President Harry S. Truman was not about to let a strike hit the steel industry. The nation was engaged in a war in Korea, and steel production was necessary to produce weapons and other military equipment."

    1. two notes that are five pitches away from each other, one, two, three, four, five

      Out of context, this sounds like an OBOE (off by one error). You typically wouldn’t count the origin: the two notes are four (semitones) away from one another. That becomes quite useful when you think about all of this as sets and, perhaps, start doing some computation with these. In context, it might simplify things for the moment. It’s just a bit strange to keep all of these in mind. The major third (so, the third note in the scale) is “five pitches” away from the root. The perfect fourth would be “six pitches” away. The perfect fifth “eight pitches away”. Major sixth “10 pitches away”. And the major seventh “12 pitches away”. Which means the octave is “13 pitches away”. Could lead to interesting confusion.

    1. you interpret the past as "the present, but cruder"

      Like people who can't wrap their head around the idea that evolution has nothing to do with any kind of purpose to produce humans. (Even starting from the position that humans are the "end result" is fundamentally flawed.)
