My pediatrician always charges us for an office visit + preventative care when we go in for a preventative care visit. It's obviously to get more $$ from insurance. I feel like this goes both ways...

But how does pulling a GT program help with equality? Putting bored kids in a classroom with kids who are far behind them developmentally drags everyone down. Don't the GT kids deserve to learn, too?

I think you may misunderstand what a gifted kindergartener is. Like, some kids come in and they essentially taught themselves to read. That doesn't mean they have helicopter parents who think they're extra special -- it means they

I take issue with calling it "cruel". But yeah we should have really strict penalties on using smartphones while driving.

I know I'm late to this, but there is a minimal distribution of LaTeX that I used for e.g. writing my master's thesis. It's called TinyTeX. https://yihui.org/tinytex/

Loved the breakdown of a topic I wasn't familiar with. I just can't help but think that the whole ethos of Open Social Media is misguided. I think that social media isn't good for us -- not just because of the big companies m

I think approval time would take much longer. The issue is that while actual time spent in review may be shorter, there's a lot of context-switching time costs that increase with the number of PRs submitted. No one on the team is just

Could you help me understand how decoder-only LLMs maintain the Markov property? If you used the same random seed, the input to the model "The cow jumped over the" would not give the same output as just "the", right? So

I hate this, my mom's account got hacked and now someone is controlling it for who knows what purpose. She had to make a new account and lost all her photos, old posts, messages, etc. Facebook was completely unhelpful

This is a really neat idea. I'd love to see more of this rolled out in schools, workplaces, and homes. This article reminded me of something I read recently that installing air filters in schools led to increased test scores.

When you set up the phone as Supervised, there's a box you can un-check to disable using a different Mac. So just make sure you don't un-check it :)

You can install mobileconfig files without factory-reset, but I've found some settings won't "take" until the phone is supervised.

I've been doing what the author did for about a year using Configurator. I have the browser blocked completely. I found that I could still get around it by sending messages to myself in apps like Messenger and using the built-in browse

I totally get that, but for me I'd rather put in controls that make it easy to do the things I want, a la Atomic Habits. Like, I want to eat healthier. I can try more self-control to not eat the Oreos in the pantry, or I can stop putti

I've been using the same setup as the author for about a year, I can help some. 1. I don't know, never tried this. I do know iCloud backups still work, because I've used them after wiping my phone. But I think you must plug t

I have been doing this exact same thing for about a year, this guy is basically me! I love it so far. One difference with his setup, I also set up my Configurator profile so that I can only navigate to whitelisted websites, and I haven&#x27

I think there's a lot of recency bias here. Over and over again in human history, we've lost technology. We often lose technology. The past 200 years is the exception, not the rule. I also think that some parts are really weakly-r

What a shame! I've loved Arc, haven't been able to give it up even though it's now maintenance-only. It was nearly dead, I'm sure Atlassian will finish it off.

The NRO was not spun out from the CIA. It's a separate organization. The wikipedia article you link to suggests that it was not created as part of the CIA.
