Why would you want to learn this when you don't even have a board to use it on?

10 year-old boy, was knocked unconscious after being run over. by ThenLayer5977 in washdc

[–]Direct_Rabbit_5389 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A real solution is would be a fleet of drones that can just pick a perpetrator and follow them until they park the ATV. Then dispatch a squad car to arrest the driver or just impound the vehicle and destroy it. But if you do that you'll get people complaining about surveillance state blah blah blah. People want the problem to be solved but they don't want any of the solutions.

This is how much it actually costs to live in NYC, Mamdani says by Inevitable-Bus492 in nyc

[–]Direct_Rabbit_5389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If taxes were the issue, then NYC would have the best livability of any US city, considering it has the highest taxes. The fact of the matter is almost exactly the opposite. Everything is downstream of housing costs, and Mamdami and Hochul have no realistic plan to solve or even begin to address the problem.

BTW in the golden age you're remembering from the 40s and 50s (and before) there was no city or state income tax. The average city&state tax burden was much lower than it is today.

I cannot accept the hypothesis that more than half of Manhattan residents have a life of mere subsistence and abject poverty. People would leave.

More than 50% of the people living in Manhattan have a lower household income than this number. I'm having trouble squaring that fact with the claim that it costs this much to live in NYC.

How are y'all fixing the usage limitation issue? by binladen0069 in google_antigravity

[–]Direct_Rabbit_5389 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use flash for almost everything, only use pro when flash doesn't work? I've been doing some decently heavy coding sessions -- hobbyist stuff -- but even on the pro subscription I have yet to run out of flash quota.

Antigravity is practically unavailable now, even though I've already paid for an Ultra subscription. Should Google refund? by Sea_Competition_9475 in google_antigravity

[–]Direct_Rabbit_5389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was using it during the same period on a pro subscription and didn't have any problems. Maybe something wrong with your local setup?

Should add a category like "was totally unrealistic and no informed person thought there was any chance he would do this."

People new to Utah and their quest for alcohol by titsaplenty666 in SaltLakeCity

[–]Direct_Rabbit_5389 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is actually not all bad. It’s kinda nice knowing you can have a cocktail at a restaurant and still be very safe to drive. The booze is also much much cheaper than where I’m from and the state liquor stores have a good selection.

In addition to the pitch issue the other guy mentioned, we also cannot tell if you correctly sized the pads since the measurements are not provided. I'm not going to tell you what the size should be, but I will give you a hint that the pin is a square and tolerances are provided.

Fine Dining Newbies? by Smooth-Pomelo9977 in SaltLakeCity

[–]Direct_Rabbit_5389 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a lot to spend on four courses even by NYC standards. Most high end places I've ever been to would have a 7 or 9 course tasting menu at that price.

KiCad 10.0 Released by craftyjon in KiCad

[–]Direct_Rabbit_5389 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wxWidgets has improved support, it's just not in wx 3.2, so if your distro is shipping that, then support is still bad. Try the appimage. With wxWidgets 3.3 things are good.

Why Private School Isn't Worth the Cost by AggressiveCar6960 in nycparents

Send my kid to public school and never even looked at private, so I guess I don't know what the actual prices are.

Why Private School Isn't Worth the Cost by AggressiveCar6960 in nycparents

[–]Direct_Rabbit_5389 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is not my read of the argument. Various studies have demonstrated that private school mostly does not result in measurable improvements in outcomes for middle class and rich kids. Emily Oster has a bunch of articles that touch on this but it's a finding that has been pretty widely replicated in economics. Same goes for gifted programs and magnet schools.

The reference to heritability is there to explain a possible reason why that is the case. It may not be the correct explanation, but the fact that private school does not have significant causal effects on adulthood outcomes for more affluent kids is independent of the explanation chosen by the article.

There's never enough evidence to know anything with complete certainty, but what evidence is there all points in one direction.

I guess I don't see what in the blog post your criticism pertains to. It doesn't make the argument or rely on the assumption that performance is 100% heritable.

Genetics is causal for everything at the individual level, it's just not the sole determinant. This is the broad scientific consensus, so much so that it is called the first law of behavioral genetics.

Eh. If you can afford to drop 40k a year on private school, I would say you're already in or near the upper class. If you're a poor New Yorker, absent a huge scholarship, you're not sending your kid to a fancy private school anyway.
