Vitamin E is a group of chemicals, tocopherols and tocotrienols Many past studies have been poor in specifying the form used; some even used the synthetic version.

Most Multivitamins / Supplements will just be the alpha tocopherol form. But the gamma tocopherol form might be the more important one. You can get low quantities of tocotrienols from rice, but its not too practical because it will come along with some arsenic ;) Also, they should all be gotten in balance, not just one out of proportion to the others. One supplement that does this is Jarrow Famil-e but there are others.

Vitamin C is also tricky, its much more bioactive when present with certain bioflavanoids. So it might be best to get a lower dosage from fruits (like kiwis, which are high in Vitamin C) rather than a high dosage from supplement w/o bioflavanoids.

With respect to mitohormesis, the study mentioned above does not seem to indicate the proximity of antioxidant supplementation to the exercise in its methods section, it simply says:

" Participants in the antioxidant treatment groups (n=20 each, out of which n=10 were untrained and n=10 were pretrained) received 500 mg vitamin C (ascorbic acid, Jenapharm) twice a day and 400 IU vitamin E (RRR-/D- -tocopherol, Jenapharm) once a day"

In my mind, I would not take antioxidants "near" exercise, within an 8 hour window (4 hours before / after), but it would be nice to get some clarifications on this.

I agree though, things are not so simple. Recently there was a story "Antioxidant-rich foods like black tea, chocolate, and berries may increase risk for certain cancers, new study finds". The theme is similar, antioxiandts gotten thorough the diet may short circuit your body's abilities.

Seems like a pretty good use case for lasers as you can generally hit only what your aiming out, and you don't have any explosive and/or metal shrapnel falling back down into populated areas.
Just copy your ~/.mozilla everywhere. I too have been using the same profile for about a decade, across many machines.
If by decline most meant "computers being more affordable, powerful, and with more languages, compilers, documentation, FOSS and proprierary software available than ever, not even close to the 'heyday' of general-purpose computer era they have in mind in the 80s or so" then they're right. Though I think they mean "I want a specific vendor to make a product they don't want to make".

(This is not about TFA, which examines a more well dedined "universal vs specialized processor" dichotomy, but about the frequent laments about general purpose computing).
A central bank issued digital currency has a lot of appeal - it simply does away with layers of inefficiency without disrupting the "the government is in charge" approach we have now. (yes this is appealing to many)

I partially like that this approach (despite being written by an e-cash greybeard) does away with a distributed ledger (ie why bother when it's a central bank) but I cannot get away from the basic idea that distributed ledgers are going to be a fundamental and transformative tech in the years to come.

Throwing that baby out with the bath water seems an architectural optimisation too early.

It's one of the shortcomings that I've come to loathe in nginx's declarative configuration language (and also other software products - Apache httpd is just as guilty). Everything just looks so innocent - but the devil is often in the details. So much implied nuance that you have to keep in mind when reading and especially when writing it.

Sure it's expressive and also convenient (the latter at least as long as your configuration stays relatively simple), but something like varnish's imperative VCL that offers very little built-in magic sure is easier to reason about. I have come to consider that a feature.
There are of course many different reasons to "we just cant build cool shit anymore", but one is not understanding tradeoffs.

I think it is more likely for everyone involved, team, management, project, product, client, end user etc, to understand & accept that you have to make tradeoffs when you are on a tight time frame and/or budget. You solve one thing, not a hundred different things, even though they can be equally as important in the grand scheme of things.

F-35 tried to replace fighters in three different branches (Air force, Navy and Marine) and be multirole and also do close ground support, all with a long time frame and huge budget.

Some tradeoffs can be solved with a bigger budget, but many tradeoffs can't. If you want your bombs to be stored inside the fuselage to be more stealthy like the F-35, then of course the fuselage will become bigger, thus creating more drag. No amount of money will change that.

F-35 seems from the outside like a project that didn't understand & accept tradeoffs.
Don't know about that, this Civic is 2017 and they said it needs servicing at 50k miles.
Good ideas. And that's one thing I forgot to mention: Most individuals don't need to create mockups often enough to need a SaaS plan. Design firms and larger companies might, but they're also going to need an exception tool, which jMockups is not... yet.

When you say you'd pay $20 for 3 to 5 mockups, how would you expect me to implement that? $20 for maybe a month of use? That's pretty much what it is now :) But I know what you're saying.

The reminder email is a great idea too if I went down this path.
It would be cheaper, but not acceptable to the vast majority of the public.
I think it's a fair question--once you trade even the smallest marginal piece of UX for a marginal piece of SEO ranking, you start down a slope. It may or may not be a slippery slope, but it's certainly not a level plane.
Whoa -- excellent feedback. Thank you.

Creating multiple mockups of the same page isn't viable because you can copy and paste the contents of one mockup to another. Also, it takes some time to create a decent mockup, so a one-time-use scheme would be hard to implement. Charging for collaboration might be viable, but my gut says there's a better way to make money.

I feel like the import tool is huge too and I'm not sure how to sell it. I could reposition jMockups as a tool that lets you redesign your existing site--that might be an option. I've kind of been going down the hybrid path: Create a site from scratch or redesign an existing site (that was going to be my landing page headline, almost verbatim). But that's exactly focusing on a niche...

Regarding pricing, I think a free version is essential. Yes there's a demo video and yes there's a demo mockup, but I'm not sure a lot of folks would commit to $x/month without creating at least one mockup of their own. I could reduce the free limit from 3 to 1, but I'm not sure that's the best solution either. But I think you're right that a higher priced plan is a good idea, both in terms of its value and in terms of making the cheaper plan seem like a better deal.

Again, really good feedback. Appreciate it.
Kinda a bad analogy as Opera is pretty much on par with Webkit/Gekko. Sure it basically shares the same JS-based quirks as IE, but it has a much more robust and usable error console so I welcome it.

The author is using a library that parses an entire JSON document in one go. In order to use this library, the author points out that the application must collect the entire document from the network before parsing the document. It does not work if the application passes chunks of the document to the parser.

An alternative approach is to use an incremental parser like YAJL. The application can feed chunks of the JSON document to the parser as the chunks arrive over the network. A clever application can update the UI before the entire document is received by examining the partially constructed object tree.

HN, is this the consensus? I thought certain hashes worked fine when properly salted?
Heartbeats (is this system up?) and leader election (which server should I talk to?) are common components of any distributed system. Byzantine generals is a much different problem. Whereas Paxos gets the majority of nodes (a quorum) to agree on a certain value, Byzantine Generals deals with unanimous agreement in a system with network link failures. Furthermore, in Byzantine Generals, some of the generals can be traitors actively working against the others. Unanimous agreement isn't all that useful or interesting, but production distributed systems should handle Byzantine failures. This covers innocent events such as corrupted data/messages and software bugs all the way up to hackers trying to take over your system through a compromised node. Variants of paxos exist which handle or mitigate Byzantine failures.

That can work (as I'll dot that for frozen aka slow characters or rage aka fast characters) However certain things just can't be replaced, like a big bite out of a plant or a black eye on another character with blood on the corner of their mouth.
Since the list consists entirely of 64-bit integers, there's a trivial linear-time solution:

for x in [0..2^64)
count = 0
for i in [0..N)
count += (array[i] == x)
}
number[count] = x // 0 <= count <= 2
}
print "missing: ", number[0]," duplicate: ", number[2]
The riegl for sure. Others have made the velodyne work.
That's a needlessly complicated example. You could just write

Aha, thank you! I understand that as similar to what I tried to articular.
Yes, to address this I have an FAQ entry for it (https://linklonk.com/about):
"
Is it a filter bubble?
On LinkLonk you pay attention to those who you chose to pay attention to. In a sense, LinkLonk is a filter bubble.

A filter bubble is a problem when a system chooses content to show to you without giving you clear control or an explanation of how it came up with these recommendations.

On LinkLonk the ranking mechanism is transparent and is easy to understand. LinkLonk does not try to guess what you would like. What you see is controlled by your explicit ratings. For example, when you see a recommendation from users, LinkLonk explains what links you have in common with these users.
"

Also, I think "echo chamber" (compared to "filter bubble") is often used to describe a dynamic that emerges in groups - when members of a group reinforce who is in and who is out of the group. I think LinkLonk avoids this problem by not having the concept of a group. Every user decides for themselves who they want to hear from. There is no boundary to reinforce - no echo chamber walls to erect.

I don't know for sure whether it would become a harmful echo chamber or a useful tool that helps you find high signal-to-noise information. I'd like to give it a try to find out.
I generally think that if I can't find a good name for a thing, I don't actually know what it does yet, so Im not ready to code it.

I, j, and k have clear definitions as basis vectors, so they can be used, but I don't think I'd ever call a variable foo or bar
I agree. In my experience at least, learning high-frequency vocabulary first can indeed speed up the acquisition of second-language literacy. In the case of Japanese, though, individual kanji function mainly as subcomponents of vocabulary, not as entire words.

If you are still getting used to recognizing individual kanji—if they still look mostly like indistinguishable squiggles—it might not hurt to practice them in order of frequency. But if your ultimate goal is functional literacy in Japanese, it would be better to spend more time learning high-frequency words—nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, etc.—and how they are written, whether that be in hiragana, katakana, kanji, or some combination.
I get the sense that Watterson is sharing his own childhood relationships with adults and author figures. And by and large they aren’t happy, healthy relationships.

His parents regularly debate whose choice it was to have a kid, and despite the exceptional strip shared by another reply to me, for the most part his dad seems happier working than being with Calvin. I definitely didn’t notice or care about this dynamic when I read these as a kid. And I don’t think my daughter will notice or care. But she’s only 3, and I’m cool with sheltering her a bit.

So they are essentially a combination of chips rather than a combination of logical units. I always assumed these ‘chips’ are made of logical units like computer cpus 20 years ago with different logical units but that is not true. This is probably why the M1 is better than the microsoft’s ARM implementation because probably Apple is not going the processor route and instead more tightly integrating these logical units reducing latency. This is definitely more work but the it’s probably worth it when you control every bit of the pipeline which is not possible when the pipeline is made of several vendors with their SDKs like on snapdragon based windows laptop.
> There is a lot of grey area in qualified immunity

Nope, not really.

> Government actions are protected so long as they are legal. If someone orders an illegal action, they are no longer protected by being government agents because they weren't lawfully acting in their capacities as one

This is not correct. It is not enough for there to be "an illegal action," the action has to have been in violation of clearly established law.

Please stop spreading misinformation in this thread. Having strong feelings on a legal topic does not make you a lawyer.

If true that’s more to the point. The deal is that you work for the police, govt gives you some discretion and power to act on their behalf.

If I don’t get any protection for that, why would I err on the side of intervening in ambiguous situations.

I’d even argue that it’s normal to expect some mistakes, and in general QI should be protected for this reason.

Govt should realize police are only real thing they have to enforce those reams of legalese (not taking about other things like fines). Meaning if they want to stop you RIGHT NOW, they going to have to use a cop. Govt shooting themselves in the foot by neutering their legitimacy to enforce what they say we have to do
That's a really good point about lasik. Great example thank you. But at the same time I guess it cuts both ways because lasik exists. but what I'm specially worried about is that cures might be designed to not be perfect so that maybe you need to buy them again in 15 years or something just like a light bulb they can make perfect light bulbs but they design them to be obsolete so they can sell more. Why would not the same economics operate in the pharmaceutical industry I think it's a tragedy that it might when they should stick with their hippocratic principles.
In that situation, a good faith mistake wouldn't be prosecuted in the first place. It's hard enough getting clear malpractice charged anyways.

While I am certainly leery of this sort of thing and would not be surprised if it was at least partially true, it seems like bullshit to me.

Each of these has substantial discussion, and I'm pretty sure there are more.
It's a simple empirical question. Well, strike simple...

Whether something is part of the same supply--or demand--depends essentially on how fungible the goods/labors in question are. Let's say you have two similarly skilled groups of rockstar ninja programmers on two isolated planets. No matter the groups' similarity, it'd be silly to consider them part of the same supply. The way to establish this empirically would be to clone a group of identical programmers on Kepler 62e and see if that influences labor prices on Sol 3. If it doesn't, they're not part of the same supply. Which is what economics predicts you'd see, since there's no way for employers on one planet and programmers on the other to interact.

Now consider the Bay Area market. If you doubled the number of programmers here while maintaining a consistent composition of skills, you'd probably see compensation drop.

Which brings us to, do programmers form a global supply source and do employers for them form a global demand source? And the answer is... jein, though on the whole there does seem to be distinct national and regional markets, coupled together with various levels of porosity.

Of course, the obvious complaint is that our policy choices--restrictionist immigration regimes--have created the markets we work in. And that's a fair complaint! And that's always the most vexing thing about economics. There's no natural order of things that we can lean on to push naturalistic fallacies. Things are what they are. If they changed, things would be different.
> Am I rational because of the analysis, or irrational because I make the wrong choice?

I think (to repeat others' points in different language) that to think of rational / irrational as a binary switch is bound to lead to trouble. In other words, I think that the question is whether an action, not a person, is rational or irrational. (Compare with questions of morality, where it is near-meaningless to ask "is this person good / bad?") Why not just "the analysis was rational, and the resulting 'wrong' choice was irrational?"

As I understand, being on Gab is pretty much seeking out "ghastly" and "unsavoury" speech. For instance, this comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26145412) described it as:

> I signed up for a Gab account purely out of curiosity. There was literally nothing but misogynistic, homophobic, racist, antisemitic trash content on the entire timeline.

So I guess the question is: what content do you see after your "copious use of the Block feature."?
