I don't get the sense they hate compilers at all. The writing describes work they seem to love doing. It's just clickbait.

And it may not have crossed their mind that the clang behavior is a bug after finding a workaround. I'd also assume compilers do things "no mere mortal can fully comprehend on their own".

Clearing up the mix-up here. Children of Time is the first book in the series that centers on a spider civilization while Children of Ruin is about octopus.

I haven't read Children of Ruin yet, but I've consistently heard from people that they enjoyed Children of Time more.

Yep, I missed that the archive link doesn't have video.

Thanks! I didn't realize the static archive was missing the video. These are better than what's on Santon's site.

I was hoping the article would include a video, but there's a great 12 second clip on Matteo Santon's site: https://matteosanton.com/research/

The article claims an 80% reduction in injections, but they must only be counting the injections prior to egg retrieval. After the 2 weeks of injections before the egg retrieval, there's another 8-10 weeks of intramuscular injections after the embryo transfer.

Still, this is a great development to lessen the entire ordeal for women undergoing IVF.

A well-meaning but frustrated parent might try that move in the moment but not consider what it could mean from their child's perspective. "My parent could leave me" should never be a potential consequence for misbehaving.

They're probably more aware of it because of worse things they've endured like it. A severe example is kicking your kid out of the car and driving off without them. Or packing them a bag and forcing them out of the apartment.

It can also involve deviations in strategy based on the count, particularly with borderline hands.

Right associative! It's just one of the many rites of passage for people working with PHP to get bitten by its left associative ternaries. Naked nested ternaries are deprecated now, but maybe one day, PHP can have right associative ternaries.

Fasting as a healthy person is very different from someone nearing the end of their life. Many people suffering from sickness lose most of their appetite already and have little energy to bring themselves to eat.

Hahah, love it. A couple examples for anyone curious about this:

"I even think Raffi might be able to improve his digital etiquette—to get better at waiting his turn to speak without slamming the computer shut because he’s bored, to sit through a lesson without whining or screaming.

But is digital etiquette something I want Raffi to learn at age 5? He’ll have the rest of his life to figure out the niceties of interacting with people through a screen. I can’t accept that he should get acclimated to this form of school."

The author is almost onto something with this comment. I'm not an expert in this area, but virtual "education" for pre-K seems to miss the point of going to school for a 4 year old child. I would venture a guess that the impact is more about socialization and acclimating to the routine of school than learning things.
