Gifted programs do very little or nothing as far as most studies can tell. Any gains in scores are very small, and they don’t appear to make any meaningful difference in student engagement or motivation. https://journals.sagepub.

Grade nine is 14-15 years of age in the US. I agree with you WRT age appropriate-ness. Just because something can or has been introduced at a certain age does not mean that is optimal. I recall a study I saw recently that showed delaying in

The problem there is that it’s not always obvious ahead of time what does and doesn’t have ads, and that on occasion manufacturers decide to ad advertisements after the fact. Additionally, many people are unaware of the nature of the data b

There are third party whole-server backup bots for Discord. Import elsewhere is a different problem though.

Interesting. Does 21/ton include the cost of using the land? Edit, looks like rock isn’t put on the beaches, but rather into relatively fast moving shallow seas. https://legacy.projectvesta.org/wp-content/uploads&#

That seems like it would only further incentivize a problem we have today - wastefully holding a bunch of IPV4 addresses that you have no need for. IMO the .com domain name fees are… acceptable. It’s similar to how we deal with scarce resou

Part of the shtick here is that the common spaces are large and of very high quality (for dorm rooms). The sticker price may also include land purchase, and almost certainly includes furnishings. The last thing to note is that all construct

This isn’t the only residence on UM campus! The rest are “normal”. And what you said doesn’t align with the good reviews the pace gets, even compared to “normal” housing. And to be honest, we’re always going to have to “force” people into s

Looks like you’re right! My bad. The Michigan one definitely doesn’t have a window in every room though.

In architecture “entrances” is not equal to “emergency exits”. This structure has two entrances, but a dozen emergency exits (which exceeds fire code).

Discussed previously here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29038356 It’s worth noting that this isn’t the first mostly-windowless dorm he’s built. His previous work at UM has generally very good reviews and was built wi

Nice! I built an older model MPCNC years ago, and was able to get pretty great results with it relative to the tiny cost and huge flex in the frame. I managed to cut some brass Christmas ornaments that I’m pretty proud of. I like that you’r

Agreed! A browser engine is a horrifically complicated piece of tech, and unfortunately nobody wants to pay a cent for their browser software. The fact that we have an “independent” browser at all is amazing! Sure, everybody has their pet p

Yeah, these are “colorways” in the manufacturing sense - they don’t change layout, patterns, etc, only swap out what colors are present. I’ve tried them out, they’re nice. You pick a (curated) colour, and choose nether you want a dark/

One thing that feels a bit strange to me is that he uses timelines of 1000 years when calculating nuclear reserves. I don’t believe we need a plan for the next 1000 years - think of what our understanding of power generation and transmissio

Eh, I think it’s potentially useful even if everybody recognizes it. It’s superficially similar enough to a normal wave hello and fast enough to perform that it could be done surreptitiously (as opposed to frantically waving for help or ela

That’s the sort of fill-in-the-blank thing I’m talking about. It does data ingest from a very structured source (sports scores, financial reports, weather) and populates a pre-written template. But… the article is dull as dirt (so you’d onl

From what I’ve seen of the tech, “assist” is the operant word here. It’s more like those article summary bots or a template fill-in-the-blank rather than something like GPT-2 that’s generating entirely novel phrases. A human still has to go

Part of the problem is that the meaning of “beta” has gotten extremely diluted, and is often used as a CYA rather than an actual indicator of where the software is in the dev cycle. Gmail was in “public beta” for what, five years? Game comp

I’ve wondered this as well. There is an argument that we’re dramatically underestimating the global warming impact of natural gas by underestimating/ignoring the impact of leakage.
