Unlikely; the audio had to be converted from digital to analog on the phone previously so now that's being moved to a dongle so it's still the same process (roughly). If it does add latency I would bet it's very unnoticeable (like sub milliseconds when compared to the built-in solution).

I would really like artificial flavors to be on sale for consumers. I like yogourth not because some sad chip of fruit sinking in it, but for the proteins and calcium. A drop of some flavor would save me from the sugar spoons added to the fruit flavoured ones. "Natural" yogourth comes without any added sugar.
For ages various alt-medical practitioners have been mentioning fasting as a positive. But "the real science" has denied its value. Not, "Oh, we're not sure." But, "Oh. No way. That can't be." Will Med Science now come out and say, "Oh, we're sorry. Looks like y'all were right all along."? (Hit: No never.)

Instead they'll spin it as, "Look what we found..." And people wonder why many of us don't trust Big Science, Big Med, Big Pharma, etc. Ha. They're assholes. That's why.

Makes ya wonder, when occasional we hear about some "miracle" recovery if that person didn't accidentally fast from being too ill to eat, and that actually kicked started curing them. It wasn't the meds. It was the fasting. How many meds and med studies were skewed because this wasn't factored in?

For me, the real reason for a yard is for my children to run around in it, to explore and play on their own without the need for planned activities or helicopter parenting.

It used to be permissible to let kids play in public parcs on their own but nowadays, that's a great way of becoming the person who writes "Home is where the bars are".

The characterization on that page is not good: virtually no one disagrees with "the ability to learn grammar is hard-wired into the brain". The substantive disagreement is whether grammatical categories and relations (or other knowledge that helps the child induce such) is hard-wired, or whether more general-purpose learning mechanisms are sufficient to abstract this structure from the environment.

Clearly you haven't checked how they build their DEBs and RPMs. Some opaque,
overcomplicated script that eventually calls fpm instead of proper
debianization or spec file for RPM. This results, among the others, in some

Real, unadulterated truffle oil, if it even does exist today, is extraordinarily rare: like, more difficult than getting fresh truffles. This is largely because truffles simply don't transfer their flavor to oil well.

I'm a culinary school trained former chef that worked in some pretty high end restaurants and I've never seen it in person. Neither did Daniel Patterson with the NYT when he tried to track some down. What I have seen a lot of is the usual sort of truffle oil with little bits of dried truffle in it for show though.

It's worth mentioning that, except for the initialization time, these are not inherent downsides of parser combinators. Any parsing strategy can be implemented using combinators, for example the "earley" package for haskell produces Earley parsers using combinators. Writing combinators for an algorithm which needs to analyze the whole grammar does require explicit fixpoints (`A -> aA` has to be encoded as something like `fix(lambda A. aA)`, or in Haskell with `MonadFix` syntax), and unsafe type casts.

re: "People are better eating on a regular basis.”

Well, that depends on what you're eating. One can't help but wonder if the reaction is not because of fasting per se, but because toxins are not be introduced into the body on a regular basis.

I am not an investor, but a startup founder. Please don't take it the wrong way, but I would have never hired a person who thinks the way you write. I am sure you are a great person, skilled and experienced technically, and all that stuff. But when you are trying to get a new business off the ground, you basically risk your whole life. If you surround yourself with people who don't share your beliefs and goals, who you can't rely on, who care about other things more than about building a successful business, you are totally doomed from the beginning. There is nothing wrong, by the way, with the way you treat such things. Most people on Earth are not entrepreneurs, so it's expected. The point was that if you think that way, you should never even think about joining a startup (at least not at the initial stage).

Regarding the skills, the motivation is much more important (I believe, at least). Say, if you don't know a thing about software engineering, but you love the industry the product targets at, and you are willing to learn, I would be happy to hire you and reject all the experienced engineers from Google, Facebook and other fancy companies who don't give a damn about the product, regardless of how skilled they are.

He's been confined in an embassy building for quite some time, which is roughly equivalent to a minimum security prison! He'd likely not have faced this level of punishment for the alleged sex crimes even if he'd been found guilty of them. It's important to recall that he's been forced to seek political asylum. Being labeled a rapist and unable to vindicate himself (for fear of extradition) is also likely quite upsetting to him if he's innocent.
The former is a recipe for disaster.
LetsEncrypt still has some limitations though, namely no wildcard certificates, which means you need to issue and update certificates for every subdomain individually. Certbot helps, but it's still a hassle at a certain scale. We'd gladly migrate to LetsEncrypt, but for us (+40 subdomains) it's still far simpler to manage using a paid wildcard certificate from CAcert.

> There's also been cases of shredded Parmesan not containing and Parmesan at all

To a reasonable approximation, the only shredded Parmesan you can buy that is likely to contain anything like Parmesan is the stuff that's shredded on-site by places that also sell wheels/chunks of Parmesan.

OTOH, there's rarely a good reason to buy shredded parmesan even if its real; for most uses you want shredded parmesan, the size/shape of shreds you get from such a product aren't great, and its better (and, in any case, cheaper in the long run) to just get blocks of parmesan and a grater, and in typical use quantities you aren't saving much time or effort by getting pre-grated.

I think sleep is talked about - but it is not understood. Specifically, unlike nutrition and hydration, we seem to be struggling to define conditions necessary for getting good sleep.

Yea the one that comes to mind for me would be the card swiper by Square and other companies. That thing is amazing for small businesses, especially mobile food carts. I'm starting to see many are moving over to the card reader however, which I'm not sure if that is lightning-based or not.

Anyway, I think that is a great point. Smart phones need a good serial port for 3rd-party hardware. USB would work, but everyone uses a different standard. Is the lightning port any easier or more difficult to work with? I imagine there's some sort of cost to using a proprietary port like that as well.

HeadphoneJackGate is really a damning indictment of the tech industry.

This has been like this since before chrome version 1.0

Chrome uses a multi-process architecture. So you have a process for the "browser", a process for each extension installed, a process for each tab, a process for the GPU renderer, processes for if it's pre loading a page in the background, etc...

Many of them share memory.

How so? If they were through carriers, you probably still paid for part of it through your monthly bill, and part of it was subsidized by your carrier.

is incorrect. Most people are paying for their phones in some way, whether Android or iOS, whether directly or via their carrier, and the dongle is free with the phone.
I used to have coffee and tea while water fasting but not anymore. While coffee helps with the initial headaches and may provide more energy in the following days, the fact that caffeine is a psychoactive drug started to worry me when doing the fasts. Surely, I don't think it causes any damage and by all means, have some if it helps you. But I've noticed it affects my primary goal with fasting: putting my system in a more natural state than before. It took me a while to remove it from my fasting practice.

Running WordPress on Kubernetes
Thanks for this great response. To give more color on my use case, my goal is to ship logs off the server and to some central log aggregation platform. That could be self-managed (e.g. Elasticsearch) or hosted (e.g. SumoLogic, Loggly).

In many cases, I'd want to get those logs from Docker containers and include metadata on each container so I know, e.g. what app is running, the container Id, on what host, etc.

Traditionally, tools like logstash, fluentd, and heka meet these needs.

It doesn't sounds like Telegraf is quite ready to support this use case in full, but could certainly head in that direction.
I lived for several years at an architectural project in Arizona (Arcosanti). At one point, a young Japanese architect came to study there. The first week of the workshop is quite intense, full of academic activities, which she excelled at.

On the weekend, the workshoppers rented a van and drove it up to Sedona, where they went hiking. After a few hours on the trail, she suddenly broke down sobbing. Eventually we got the story out of her: between architecture school and a job which began the day after graduation, she'd been working six and a half days per week, without ever taking a holiday or even a sick day, for over five years. This was her first fully free day in all that time. It was evidently completely overwhelming for her, like being released from a long prison sentence.

Obviously that's just one data point, and perhaps architecture isn't representative of other professions, but there you go.
