Technically, what you're doing in orbit is free fall ;).

I've seen devices used to simulate microgravity in cell research. Devices like these:

http://www.grimm-space-research.com/RPM/RPM.html

As far as I understand, the basic idea is to spin the sample in such a way that over time that the forces acting on it (including gravity) average out to 0. Apparently the processes they're interested in occur slowly enough that they behave as if in free fall.

Civilization had already developed there before Islam became a thing. And yes, they did drink alcoholic drinks too.

That's a pretty radical notion wrapped in a matter-of-fact language. Strikes me as a bit dishonest. Taxation pays for plenty of things besides police and military.
So as late as the 19th century, people were just drinking regular water, believing there was nothing wrong with it. (This, plus the fountains and wells that have existed since antiquity as public places to both drink water and wash your hands... eww)
I think most elite athletes already jeopardize their health from too much physical activity. Consider traumatic brain injuries in the NFL or boxing

NFL and Boxing are sports where brain injuries occur when doing the sport by the rules. I - and many others - think that is unacceptable, and in the NFL at least there seems to be at least a small amount of movement to improvement to this.

or wearing out your knees from running on pavement for hundreds of miles.

There's plenty of evidence showing this isn't really a thing. Humans evolved to run long distances and while modern high level sport is generally at a higher intensity this doesn't seem to cause "wearing out of knees".

OTOH, many "runners" (even healthy ones) are much much heavier than the weights we evolved at, and there does seem to be a link there.

The co-pilot and flight attendants were trying to lift up the carpet in the exit row, apparently to find a floor window which would give a view into the cargo hold. No such luck. The carpet had recently been tacked down to the floor when this particular aircraft underwent some renovations. Unfortunately, no consideration had been made for the floor window in case of an emergency, such as we were presently experiencing.

My standard internet security suite is ublock origin, noscript, self-destructing cookies, privacy badger and httpseverywhere.

Privacybadger does an ok job against tracking pixels. It uses machine learning to try to detect when a specific url or domain seems to be "following" you around the internet, which could indicate a tracking pixel among other things. It then blocks these entities and gives you the option to override.

And yes, I do think tracking pixels are super evil. It could be standard for websites to have a bar at the bottom with little logos[1] showing the companies that are tracking you, with the logos being the remote-loaded content. The fact that these companies feel compelled to make it 1x1 transparent pixels tells me very clearly that they know they are doing something people don't want them to do, because they've gone out of their way to hide it. It's a clear misuse of browser capabilities, yet they do it anyway. What a pack of cunts they are.

How to Think Real Good
Hopefully "user" really means "company" rather than individual user. Otherwise copy/pasting URLs between colleagues won't be much fun.
> with a dynamically assigned className or something equally silly.

How is that silly? Assume e.g. a very simply dynamic list, where you just want highlight rows after clicking on them. Should it set the CSS properties of the <tr> directly? It makes more sense to dynamically add/remove a CSS class such as "selected-row". However, since initially no row is selected that class does not appear in the initial HTML.

> scoped CSS components

Not sure if this is the same, but I had very good experience with component-oriented frameworks where each component has an HTML snippet and CSS snippet attached to it. The CSS is written in a way that it affects only the responsibility scope of the component, nothing outside the component, nothing inside child components.[1] Then, these CSS snippets are simply collected into a large (and perhaps compressed) CSS file.

[1] This is usually done be either prefixing all CSS rules with a component-specific class name, or by using a component-specific custom HTML element and selecting on that. Stepping into children is avoided by using only child selectors ("a > b > * > * > c" instead of "a b c"), so the rules don't reach deeply except for the cascading properties of CSS itself.

I've done something similar nearly two years ago[1]. The problem is rather difficult, especially with all the JavaScript frameworks in existence right now. I've tried to build a state machine for handling those frameworks but never got around to finishing it. There's basically and endless amount of combinations one can do, thus you probably want to limit depth or something. You also have to be able to detect ::after and similar kind of selectors, which isn't always straightforward with querySelector and needs quite a bit of cleaning. I ran into a few other (edge) cases, which I cannot remember right now.

Nonetheless, it is a challenging and fun problem to solve.

Indeed. I wonder if the networks could learn a more and more general description of the concepts in the hierarchy when going up that hierarchy.
E.g. there's a bunch of tiger species [0] each with a specific underlying model, but some traits are common to all tiger species. And some traits are common to, say, carnivores. Could you share parts of the model/network via that hierarchy, e.g. that a tiger inherits some parts of the model for carnivores etc.

For example, can the 'stripe model' or 'fang model' be shared among tigers and carnivores etc.

I tried something similar for my thesis, but this was before the advent of DNNs etc.

Modularity doesn't mean compartmentalization, or isolation, of failure, which is impossible in general (imagine a failure in the math module; checking that in other modules would be hard), although life achieves that relatively well, too. For example, a failure in a random number generation module will manifest itself in some strange ways in other parts of the system. In some ways, modularity and compartmentalization are sometimes at odds, with the latter requiring replicated functionality.
i think average lifespan was historically low because of infant mortality, and childhood deaths. If you made it to 20, you had good odds of making it to 60. Socrates was like 70. In order to die of something like that, you'd have to be pretty darn wealthy, i'd think. First, rich enough to survive childhood, and then rich enough to drink a lot.

The first girl I mentioned because for a time, she was a huge part of my life. She had become my best friend and we confided in each other. I always aspired to be a better man because of her. I always saw her going for what she wanted and she never let anything stand in her way. I never saw her give up and still to this day, she keeps going. She graduated with her Masters Degree and continues to be that inspiration for me to want to continue achieving all my own goals in life. It was one of those situations where: I'd rather her in my life than not at all, hence why we speak to each other just a few times a year and don't try to make anything more of it. Because our goals in life were so different, despite the fact that there had been chemistry, she continued on with her dreams and I knew I could not stand in her way. It has kept me going just the same. I think before these two women, I didn't really have any direction. I just did things to do them. Now I think I do them with a deeper purpose.
