It's really tough, because not treating gender dysphoria properly can be much more dangerous. It's a severe disorder thats made much, much worse by discrimination. It really seems like a lot of cases of gender dysphoria is more so

I use it too. I think it looks good enough, definitely better than my last horrible-looking resume. It seems to work well with a bit more text compared to many.

This would be a good place to point out that most plastic and paper recycling is worse in practice, in terms of emissions and chemical pollution. The only solution is to use far less plastic. Durable products should be preferred. Items that

Actually, it looks as if it wasn't that strictly regulated, hence the hundreds of deaths because Boeing was allowed to self-certify. The magic of the free market was indeed at work here, producing value for shareholders.

I think the parent's point is that this has produced many spectacularly bad outcomes.

Algebraic effects can actually be implemented with delimited continuations [0]. Algebraic effects are more aimed towards statically typed languages like Haskell or Ocaml. They can replace most uses of monad transformers, which has both cogn

It's not even the culture, it's 100% intentional. Everyone up to Jeff Bezos is fully aware of all of this and makes the decision to maintain these conditions in order to slightly raise profits. Fulfillment center employees also se

Yikes. I get that there's situations where you can't get newer compatible hardware, etc. But if it's that important, you'd think security would be important enough to go through the trouble of air-gapping it.

"If it ain't broke don't fix it" is always good advice. But some ancient duct-taped WAMP situation with insecure passwords needs to just be set on fire. Jesus christ, running Windows Server 2003 alone is something he sho

No, it's a comically terrible idea. Feral cats are one of the worst invasive species for birds. It would be much, much worse than the rodents.

Elsevier 100% does allow authors to post preprints (most due). However, there are some journals published by Elsevier that don't.

I've heard of people using it for backend. Moreso than even most lisps, Racket is incredibly powerful. It's really good at building DSLs, since the code is just another data type with the macro system. For the frontend, there&#x27

That's not actually true at all. The US has lower social mobility than most wealthy European countries. Thus, there are actually fewer opportunities for most people to create wealth for themselves compared to countries with more equali

I don't believe so. There are foreign online pharmacies of various reliability that a good number of people use. Folks near the border go up to Canada as well. None of that is legal, but it's not enforced. I imagine the outcry wou

It's against the law in many places in the US as well, but I've never heard of it enforced. I'm sure most people would rather have drunks on bikes than cars.

It would be better to ban oxygen on Everest. A much more limited number would summit, and there would be no more discarded oxygen tanks. I've been up to 6400m and climbing up there was the most physically difficult thing I'd ever

Logistic regression is usually assumed to be regularized in machine learning. It's not often you find practical problems that don't need regularization.

The nonlinear kernel SVM works at least as well in primal, using just the representer theorem. Since it is unconstrained, all you need to do is create a kernel matrix and solve your system with your favorite convex optimizer like Newton&#x2

It's funny how close everything is connected. It turns out you can even derive the hinge loss using a mixture of normal distributions, so it is also connected closely to OLS. Some people have had good luck with hinge or multi-hinge los
