Today's shower think is trying to decide how to mete out my time.

Do I go more on the side of attacking a job search to get a better paying full time job so I can support my wife's immigration or do I take the route of just gettting a part time job (likely easier to procure) and then take it in the gut with regards to extra time (effectively killing a large portion of the time I'm planning on putting into advancing my database.

I want to see more shower think from others. Please post your shower think, even if you've already done it on previous days.
Where is this study proving 100 M Americans have "superior" antibodies? Some experts in the linked article claim the exact opposite.

So far you've made the "superior antibodies" claim no less than 9 times(!) in various comments and cited exactly 0 supporting evidence.

Hinge on one side. Piano hinges on the parts that fold. Math to calculate the correct angles. Didn't seem like voodoo to me.

This is the one that really looks like magic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10y28PD73vk
Any programming language that makes units a first class part of its type system would allow for defining custom units just as easily as defining other data types. Nobody's saying that SI has to be the only units expressible, just that it has to be the foundation of the unit system. Likewise, unitless numerical quantities will necessarily still be expressible, but using those types for variables that represent a value with a unit should be considered extremely poor practice, just like when communicating those values on paper.

There's really not a good reason to argue against using only SI units for data interchange formats. It's trivial to map to the preferred units on import or display, if and only if you know what units the input data is in. I've dealt with too many bugs where interacting programs have differing assumptions about meters, centimeters, and millimeters to believe that the flexibility of storing different units on disk is ever worth the trouble.
It's probably a threat. Enable ML for the pro series cameras, and we encrypt boot loaders etc. Or even sue. But don't touch them and we'll have a gentlemen's agreement.
I feel like any model that is based on earnings during the covid era is going to have a few issues. When earnings fall simultaneously, combined with large stimulus, things will get pretty interesting.

I'm not saying it isn't overvalued, just that there needs to be more detai here than just "the P/E is historically high".
I doubt it. "retail" investors have too much money the bigger investors want to extract from them.
I think you're missing the point. The brand is irrelevant. The point is if they are faking the brand, you can no longer trust the integrity of the product at all.

In this case, it began deteriorating with steel 'hairs' coming undone immediately after first use. Should I be concerned about that? Is it even steel wool or another material? If the latter, is it safe and tested against items that humans will be consuming food from? Is it sterile? Were some other chemicals used to treat it for something as trivial as attempting to match the colour of the brand?
It's possible, but I don't think so. This isn't Bridgewater's style; they're too uncharismatic to meaningfully influence investor sentiment the way Donald Trump or Elon Musk can.

I think this is a starting point to try and solicit countervailing facts. Dalio's putting his reasoning out there because he wants to be proven wrong. Reading between the lines, he's probably doing this because his global macroeconomic thesis is that inflation is coming, his normal response to this would be to buy gold, and he's heard that this Bitcoin thing is the new "digital gold" that could replace physical gold ownership. If this new thesis is right, his impulse to buy gold is wrong, and the money that would've gone into it will go into Bitcoin instead. If it's all just hype, though, he should buy gold. So he puts out a public piece explaining the pros and cons of Bitcoin and then waits for the controversy, while his assistants read the online commentary and take notes of anything that might be relevant to evaluating the investment thesis.
Well, If all you have is “A spent $5” and “B received $5” you are still missing a lot of info to identify that A and B are part of the same transaction (there are thousands of $5 trades every day)

But that's not even how Taler works: you withdraw an arbitrary amount of Taler (say $50), this is what is recorded on the consumer side, but then you have anonymous tokens (exactly like coins and bills) that you can spend without connecting to anything: only the supplier need to have a connection to a certification entity (which ensure no double spending).
This isn't a case of who's right or wrong. The success of Bitcoin is entirely based on belief, which doesn't have a right or wrong answer, particularly this early in its history.

Bitcoin is successful if enough people agree to believe that it is valuable. And that's the period we're still in now: trying to determine if this thing is valuable and by how much (hence the price volatility).

Hundreds of Japanese cities were leveled by firebombing. Having a town nuked every few weeks was not such a big consideration against that background. If only they had trucked on for a few more months we wouldn't have to read these articles.
There was only a single drop from 50 BTC to 25 BTC so there is no basis for your claim. And it can not work the way you describe. With 100k transactions per day and $0.10 fees per transactions miners can collect 3.65 million Dollars per year. So everyone with a handful million dollars to spare can easily completely destroy the Bitcoin network. Even better, there are already people with a lot of mining hardware out there, they would only have to pay electricity for a few weeks.
Right tool for the right job. 100 petabytes is 50,000,000 times larger than the data in the post. It's the difference between touching something within reach and flying around the world.[1]

Are you sure about this? My wife and I fostered a dog last year (here in Southern Oregon) that had heartworms. The treatment was nasty and dangerous to the dog, but the dog did recover.
A lot of things have regulations yet people still need to develop defenses against them. Kevlar is still needed in countries where guns are heavily regulated.
My brother has had somewhat similar symptoms for years. About a year ago he got a cranial x-ray for unrelated reasons, and the doctor discovered one of the largest sinusitis infections he'd ever seen. (Unfortunately, due primarily to living in a country without accessible medical care -- the United States -- he hasn't followed up on taking care of it.)

Also, make sure you keep an extremely clean and airy environment. Dust, mold, pollens, etc. will aggravate the condition.

Those are insanely good hubs and output a nice consistent amount of power. If the chargers were compatible with these hubs it would be extremely easy to use them on a wide range of bikes immediately.
My PC I had for University, bought in late 1994, had 16MB RAM (which was huge), typical PC in that era ('92-94) was 4MB RAM, which was considered the minimum to run Window 3.1. I think the 8MB figures are a little wide of the marque, by 1997 most machines I saw were already hitting 32MB upwards, by 1998 many were hitting 128MB at the upper end to run Windows NT 4.0.
Note: this article is from 1974.
Yes, that's true. Not eating something is much harder than running. You can apply the same principles to make it somewhat easier:

- Eliminate decisions by not buying bad stuff that tempts you.

- Do some kind of sport and calculate how many calories you burnt. One piece of chocolate can easily cost 30 minutes to burn, so this makes not eating it more preferable.

- Lose weight with someone else.
People remember what Snow Leopard became, not what it was at launch. It's also contrasted in memory with the bold, controversial, iOS-influenced reimagining of Lion, leaving behind an inevitable nostalgia for the stable simplicity of the previous release.
Microsoft isn't a tiger, it's a group of people. There is some continuity, but the people making those decisions are not the same people making those decisions now.
You should do more digging into how "doing business in China" works before you make this statement.
That is pretty impressive. Tried something similar with a DLP projector stolen from texas instruments (not stolen, but they tend to be picky about selling them. Probably because these are awesome devices).

Was slow as hell, since I used a raster with multiple images to measure the topology. The resulting heightmap was awesome, but even with synchronized camera and projector, I needed a pretty long illumination time per image. So it would be interesting what camera(s) they used too. I doubt you would need multiple projectors, because the available ones are extremely fast.
lol... a file that contains a bunch of files? is that an archive? or a set of instructions to download a bunch of files? what is the world coming to?
Agreed. Convenient for Apple to absolve themselves of these things, but when my app gets a bunch of hateful reviews simply because the user doesn't want to pay, or provide an email, Apple lets all that stand.

Except with number porting and the ability to be allocated hundreds of thousands of phone numbers by filling in a bit of paperwork, the whole thing seems moot.
Halogens burn out quickly, I think it's because they run too hot. I had a bunch of them in my previous apartment, and had to replace a bulb every few months or so. There were even dark marks on the ceiling from the heat.
I totally agree! And I believe that markets can be created through governmental platforms. Just as governments might have created cash (which could have been private) and physical market places (which can also be private), I believe the government can support a platform for a diverse market of news media. Without a free market, monopolistic forces dominate. The market for news is not so free, if the attention platforms are owned by private individuals that don't share profits with the content driving their eyeballs. We don't disagree. I just believe that government involvement and free markets aren't opposites but mutual enablers.

Steam is almost certainly a bigger business than GameStop. Even with the stock growth, it's just paper value and not real.
As much as Bitcoin proponents talk about the protocol, the majority of Bitcoin buyers couldn’t care less about anything related to the blockchain. They just want to buy some BTC in Coinbase and see the number go up and down (preferably up). They don’t want to hold their coins or be their own bank.

Meanwhile, the amount of misinformation around inflation and fiat money is getting ridiculous. Bitcoin proponents talk about Bitcoin as if the only alternative investment was to keep all of your savings in cash under your mattress. Too many people think that inflation means everything loses value except Bitcoin, all while ignoring the fact that inflation literally means the value of traditional assets and commodities goes up in dollar terms.
I find both useless.
> Drawing rhetorical analogies is one thing, but exactly which human rights do you feel would be violated by applying these proposals to the royal family?

The right to not be punished by the state for anything that was legal at the time one did it, by way of a future law change.

Saying “It is not a form of punishment; it is simply a procedural change.” can be used to enable any such matter.

> Also just to note this wouldn't be done arbitrarily, but within a specific purpose of abolishing the monarchy and removing all vestiges of their power.

The same can be said about anything.

Let us incarcerate all those that have removed the foreskins of their children in the past, when it was still legal to do so; — this is not a form of punishment; this is simply to remove all vestiges of involuntary foreskin removal.
Nobody is recommending that we throw used plastic in the river as an alternative.
No shortage at any of the hospitals I've worked in over the past several months.
A regular surgical mask is enough for the average street walker, and a month ago in NY there were people handing boxes of them out to people in the streets for free.
patio11 is correct.

You should always try to come from the frame of you being excited about the opportunity and first want to make sure it's a good fit. The onus isn't on you to give a number, and in fact it's pretty ridiculous for them to demand it.

If you've reached the final stages you should be getting an offer letter with a salary amount and then you can negotiate from there. That not happening sounds strange.

With all that said it's pretty straightforward to use a site like glassdoor to see what salaries are at similiar jobs in the area. I see you made a new account just to ask this, iss this a larger company?
I don't really understand the existence of these blog services aimed at developers when so many thousands of static site generators and rsync exist.
Fellow 4000 addict, I simply won’t use anything else at this point, either work supplies one or I take one out my reserve.

That's something that I haven't seen mentioned yet: The last few years, Moot has appeared to have nothing but contempt for the people who post on his site. I imagine a decade of being marinated in the worst the internet has to offer would do that to anybody.
I actually like the fact that it looks a little clunky. No one's going to want to wear this in a bar or restaurant, so the odds of a "Glasshole"-like backlash seem unlikely.

No one seems to address the very germane question of whether consciousness is separable from language, or rather communication more broadly. Is it possible to have language, and not be conscious? Is it possible to be conscious and not have language?

Though no one takes Julian Jaynes seriously these days, but I think his ideas of the development of language preceding consciousness are as good as any other theories I've read.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't Microsoft just release (or ship this product with) a sort of blinder to put around these glasses to make the dedicated sight come from the glasses themselves while darkening everything else?
That is such a great idea.
So, it will take a 'snapshot' of the page that you can markup. This snapshot will disable dynamic features of the webpage but still allow links to work. I wonder if they are talking about halting DOM manipulation, or JavaScript execution. Seems this will definitely create new classes of QA test paths.
While not simple at first, I found that buying a new domain and pointing it to a storage zone within BunnyCDN[1] solved my problems with Imgur perfectly. It also provided a whole afternoon of fun for my wife and I while we brainstormed names for our personal image hosting service.

I wrote a simple wrapper script to upload[2] and have had no problems since. The script calls another script to optimize the image before uploading[3], but if you prefer to skip that part, BunnyCDN has something they call Bunny Optimizer[4] that can handle it for you on their side, for a fee ($9.50 per month).

The storage box set me back $1.92 last year plus $50 for the domain — because of the TLD —, and I can use it to do whatever I want, with no tracking, ads, or the annoying social aspect that most image hosting websites inevitably add in a desperate attempt to make money[5] — instead of, you know, charging from the get go.

All, Signal is a 501c3 nonprofit. Your company probably matches donations. If they don't, they are eligible to be added to your company's portal. I encourage you to throw some of your wealth their way and take the extra step to get matching. This is important.
There are several universities, big corporations, and startups taking another look at analog computing, and ML seems to be application that will make it viable.

Again, show me literally one single source indicating that the Women’s March sit in was remotely like this.
We are seeing an emerging system of privatized sanctions enacted by a collusive tech oligopoly.

Safari allows people to view any content they want on the Web. I wonder if they will ever move to only allowing users to go to specifically allowed websites?
An underlying issue is the formation of the digital world - what once was a town square is now a (ex.) Facebook page, or network of Twitter followers.

The mechanism of communication exchange have changed so rapidly, that compelling companies to abide by free speech is a tough legislative decision. Yes, they’re corporations and can decide who to have and who not.

But an emergent phenomenon are people using these services as their lens to the world. This was obvious in the last election, red or blue, it was obvious whose side big tech was on. They were not unbiased, as I think they should be.

I’d say just as AOC wanted to get a list created of trump political supporters/affiliates (not general public, but a stepping stone away) and essentially cancel them, the same rhetoric is used to ban forms of speech. “It’s for the better”.

Another reason for controlled speech is a patronizing one, that “you’re head/emotions can’t handle X form of speech”.

Let people decide what they want to see. If I want a censored Twitter, or Wild West Twitter, let me choose. Though I understand the impracticality of forcing this on a corporation.

The only thing banned should be what is illegal. Let legislatures and judges determine it.
I'm concerned about these 'benchmarks'. They are using nanosecond timing intervals. By design, CPU clocks have jitter to resist timing attacks. Secondly, a single clock tick is much more than a nanosecond.
I would feel much more comfortable with performance comparisons (in ANY language) when the duration is on the order of minutes.
I don't know I just feel like there's a weird 180 backlash across the spectrum.

Where Trump was continuously treated as a dictator but then his opposition is openly admiring China for their authoritarianism in combating coronavirus.

Likewise his border wall efforts were always stymied cause they were "racist."

That could very well be true but with such sweeping generalizations the political support for border control re: coronavirus isn't really there since everyone's staked their position based on opposing their own enemies.
That sounds infinitely more complex and cpu intensive than simply muting the mic on key events.
Sometimes the meetings at $MEGACORP feel like useless ceremony. However I have worked with people who don't frikken read and do their own thing. For these people meetings are where you have to harvest their attention towards the cards/issues/wiki/specs/diagrams. Still not cool.

My wife and I recently moved to Baltimore from another rust-belt city with underrated culture: Philadelphia. Both punch above their weight in art as well as food. We were all just as the Walters yesterday. A gorgeous museum with no entrance fee, in a city more famous for its dilapidation than for its art.

The linked-to article about Detroit is quite depressing:

> Officials at the city-owned museum, which, along with Detroit, has struggled financially for many years, had said as recently as two weeks ago that such a huge commitment — money to help the city pay its pensions — would be “completely unfeasible.” But in a statement on Wednesday the museum said that it had reached out to corporate leaders in Detroit and would commit to a multiyear effort that would “stretch our fund-raising abilities to their capacity” as a way to protect its collection.

What a particularly grotesque expression of intergenerational wealth transfer: taking art away from the young to pay for pensions for the old.

I never said it was a "normal flu season". I just said we've sort of factored-in the costs (in our heads) about flu.

I think what folks working in ICUs think about flu is probably more complex than what they are saying right now; most people in ICUs are dealing with clear and present dangers with the technical systems that they have. What matters more is researchers and folks who do aggregate analysis of costs on a countrywide or larger basis, averaged over longer times, and considering second-order effects.
>Taiwan has been first world since the 1950’s (just to clarify to others reading the thread).

In the technical sense, yes. By the same token, Ireland and Sweden are also "third world".
