“Consider going to back to an era when a minor accident like a scrape could lead to death.”

That a bit of hyperbole, people don't take antibiotics for minor scrapes - soap and water is the prescription. quite often when the minor scrape is life threatening, its something like MRSA. which leads me to think of the stories of people in the past dying of minor scrapes: maybe its been around for longer than we think.

after all of the scare tactics, much of the drug resistance where it matters has been appropriate use. TB, gonorrhea, etc. These diseases didn't become drug resistant because people were taking antibiotics for the flu or use in agriculture.
I can't see the gap too. Objdump, otool or nm with grep is what binary explorer needs. Rather than colorizing, why not filter unneeded things or colorize needed via search highlighting? (My personal preference, ofc.)

From its very short source it seems that it simply pretty-prints headers of MachO and ELF files. No sophisticated logic involved, just hello world in rust. So it cannot be a prettifier, since it doesn't parse any output.

"Well, don't you have call waiting?"... We are divorced now, of course.

It's not, actually. Minor scrapes could lead to death doesn't mean they always did. Same is true today. Most scrapes won't lead you to need antibiotics, but if you start to get very ill after your scrape, you will get treated with antibiotics and live. 100 years ago you might have died - from cutting yourself while gardening, for example.
Different Scheme implementations, presumably, have different implementations of continuations.

An implementation of call/cc can be efficient provided you are willing to sacrifice the notion of a single execution stack and embrace constructs like spaghetti stacks that allow for indefinite lifetime of an execution context.
I once called in to an NPR radio show on organic produce to make a similar point about pesticides: that pesticides were a net public health boon because they made fresh produce affordable.

So if anyone is receptive to your argument it ought to be me. But I'm not buying it.

Public nutrition does not require that we sacrifice antibiotic effectiveness for incrementally cheaper meat.
Let me post the full sentence for the better context:

It's a classic source/sink problem in fluid mechanics. You can't suck out a candle.

Most everything in single phase, low Reynolds number flows is about the interplay of inertia and viscosity. Viscosity acts to run out all motion while inertia is essentially your kinetic energy. If you're going to suck flow back through a nozzle it's not going to have much directionality.

Maybe you could exploit the Coanda effect.
I mean it is already practiced in some form, this is not a whole new concept.

Of course, there are discussions to be held about the implementation details, including the governments reach and the checks and regulations. A lot can be argued about what political experience brings to the table (imo bad things for the very large part, but that is a ugly can of worms). Personally, I would trust my neighbor more to do The Right Thing, than any career politician.

Nevertheless, a sampling based method is much more representative and more in line with the rule of the people idea.

Simplified, to survive one antibiotic, you need only mutate to resist that one antibiotic. To survive n antibiotics, you need to mutate to resist n antibiotics _at once_. Being vulnerable to just a single of them will kill you.

If the chance to get the right mutation to resist one antibiotic is, say 0.01 (1%). Then the chance to mutate to resist three antibiotics at once is 0.01^3, thats 1e-6 (0.0001%).

the only thing people die of today being MRSA is due to vaccination doing a great job at eliminating everything else.

in a pre vaccine pre antibiotics world, every time you get dirt into an open wound, you run the risk of:

thats not hyperbole. it looks like hyperbole to you because vaccines.
Unless you want to put a lot of effort into this then just buy clothes with the best quality fabric you can find (you can tell quality fabric just by feel).

Not only will your clothes feel great, as a side effect you will be stylish without being fashionable. Quality never goes out of style.

Edit. I should add that top quality fabric is never wasted on "fast fashion" so the clothes will always be a bit more conservative and so will remain stylish for longer.

This is one area where men have a massive advantage over women. As a man you can buy well made clothes with quality fabric for less than women pay for wear-once garbage.
> In this setting war is fun for one side (protagonist is taking photos! just for the kicks) and life-death situation for other side.

I think your comment is distorting reality on several levels.

First of all, you take the fact that one side had a journalist and jump to a conclusion that the war was "fun" for them. How does "taking photos" entail "just for the kicks", exactly?

But the second distortion, which does not pop out that much, but is much more serious, is to measure different side's moral stance in a war by their suffering. You, implicitly, say that the side that suffers the most is by default on the moral high ground.

Is it your honest opinion on ethics of war? That suffering is the measure of morality?

I'm asking it because this kind of logic entails several very curious conclusions. For example, the moment one side gains the upper hand and the other loses it, they immediately switch places, bad guys become good and vice versa. Also, the weaker side can start conflicts and break armistices and will remain a "good guy" as long as it ensures that it has higher casualties, especially civilian. And, of course, any technology that would make my soldiers or civilians safer, and, therefore, leads to less suffering on my side, makes me less moral - and, therefore, is immoral on it's own.
> To be honest, I don’t even know what Facebook Instant Articles are.

Amen, brother.
Why necessarily "against their will"?
thats exactly what i said, they could lead to death but they usually dont. Maybe I have to walk you through it:

1) its very rare a cut needs antibiotics
2) if an infection is severe from a 'minor scrape', the prior for it being something like MRSA is much higher
3) minor scrapes in the past also rarely needed antibiotics
4) rare stories of people dying from minor scrapes in the past might have been MRSA
The point is that it's much harder with a hardcopy...

You are right, it is important to have documents. The soldier obviously had passion for photography, judging by the aesthetics of the photos. I just got irritated by the asymmetry of the situation.
Our governments appear to be pursuing mutually contradictory aims. On one hand there are increasingly frequent and powerful cyber attacks which can only be resisted through superior cyber-security and encryption. Then on the other hand we get this rubbish.

Is it even possible to solve both these problems at once in a way which preserves the freedom of the net and doesn't involve some crippling PRC style regulation?
>...then that mainframe outputs data following a different document format, one that doesn't comply with the language defined by the standard.

Yes, and so what? Stating RFC4180 as a retroactive fact isn't going to make the job get done.

Again, look at the date of RFC4180.[1] It is October 2005. There have been millions of csv files made for decades before that pseudo-standard even existed. (Yes, RFC4180 is not even a formal specification -- it is a pseudo-specification trying to codify the most prevalent and sane existing practices.)

The programmer still has to parse all the bad pre-2005 csv files so making the parsing dependent on RFC4180 is irrelevant.

Even today, the Citi bank cc transactions export to csv is _not_ RFC4180 compliant. So what? I still have to parse it.

Getting pedantic about noncompliant csv files not following RFC4180 is not productive for the task at hand. The programmer trying to parse them doesn't control the other entities that produce bad csv files.

>Is it that hard?

The conversation is not about difficulty. It is about where in the workflow a pseudo-standard like RFC4180 is most applicable: the writing of output not parsing of input.

It is possible to do this but it's considered a bit non secure. So for your desktop it's fine, whether it's a good idea in a multi user environment is another story.

It also requires the drivers to be installed and loaded by the host.

Lots of problems with the multi user use case, such as many video cards can be used to DMA main memory and also potentially affecting the card permanantly in some way ahead of being used by another user later.
Most likely because of the draft in place during the Vietnam war for American soldiers and the necessity for military service among young Vietnamese men defending their homeland.
1) is only right because we are vaccinated.

2) in 2017, yea. in the past, the prior for it being MRSA is essentially 0

3) thats because vaccination predates antibiotics

4) nope

your statements amount to "i have no clue how evolution works". bacteria are single cell organisms that dont just suddenly exist into the world being resistant to antiobiotics, which were specifically developed to kill those organisms off.
For anyone who's still as confused as I am, apparently the connection between Stone Soup and open source is that the group who developed Fractint (one of the first open source programs and still used today) was called the Stone Soup Group.

I’m just suggesting a way to improve the mobile experience without breaking the web. There are a multitude of ways to do this and while I see your point about everyone using prerender everywhere (browsers should probably have energy usage by domain and warn against bad actors) it’s surely better than this mess where one company completely controls the mobile web.
You can still get this close, but not in the auction. The shops who purchased some tuna then have them sitting out in their stalls sometimes.
as far as I know, the vaccination for tetanus is not under threat from antibiotic resistance of people taking penicillin from the flu. - or even being under any resistance threat at all.

the hyperbole part is trying to sell a world where a minor scrape leads to death. SURE, its possible (but very unlikely) that could happen, but that could happen under any circumstance anyways.

Am I the only one that finds OCW conpletely underwhelming?

Lecture slides and notes which make up a lot of the content isn't very useful to me without the lectures.

Stanford has a few classes with all the lectures on YouTube. During my first algorithms course in undergrad they were super useful and the professors were really good at explaining things in plain languages. Better than my own instructors.

Same thing for Khan Academy. Their content is brilliant.

This strikes me as generally true, except for the "few thousands of dollars" part. Billions flow through these groups, and while an individual attack might only cost a fraction of that, it's probably not fair to consider it in isolation.
I found two reasons here:
- They make money by using bikes as advertising space, so they do not really care about the overall quality of the system as long as they have a permanent exploitation contract.

- They use historic data to approach future situations. In spite they do not have alert systems, they seem to think this is enough. Although, when sun suddenly appears, the shore tends to get crowded and "locked" for hours; they doing nothing about it.

What my system was going to provide was smart routes for the vans, to add or subtract bikes on strategic places.
I would argue that even voluntary service is just (or can be) as stressful as involuntary service. Many people join the military for the benefits or out of a sense of duty. You may find that sense of duty misplaced, but regardless of the reasons I'm guessing most young men don't join the military to become murderers and witness their friends getting torn apart. So yes, even voluntary servicemen must make light of the hell they're living in.

EDIT: Just realized my comment kind of comes off as argumentative but I think we're in agreement on this one judging by your other comment.
Yes, but then exploring solutions should be an explicit goal. And the problem to be solved must be defined, along with criterias for evaluating solutions.
Otherwise it's just an excuse for "we don't know what we are doing or why".
if you take away tetanus vaccination, a lot of people will die from random scratches. if you dont take it away, then no.

antibiotics resistances dont make bacteria immune to vaccination. entirely different mechanism.

Buying from the Dream Market – Dream Market
I thought your argument was that 'a school where many don't pass is a bad school,' but now I see you were saying something a little different, 'that they should only accept qualified students.' I missed that. But even if accepting qualified candidates, I'm not xonvinced everyone passing is necessary. It just depends on the goals.

I hope you can see how the above disagreements are still related... It seems self-evident, no?
> but that was a necessary measure against Lyft taking up the untapped market

> Google would have taken the place and drove Uber out of business

That is exactly what I am talking. "I wanted to win against them" might be an explanation, but not a freaking excuse. Having choice between getting advantage and not doing something unethical, Uber consistently chosen unethical. Feeling bad about those things once you get caught is probably nicer then not feeling bad, but does not make all that much difference in real world. How you feel does not changes impact of your actions on other people nor their morality.

> After all, he was always talking about fighting unjust and greedy taxi companies who are robbing their customers.

But somehow when taxi companies are as greedy as him and as unjust as him, then it is bad. Or rather, this was just populism/propaganda to turn people against competitors and regulators - to gain advantage for himself.

> In that regard, there's not much empathy you can hold for drivers as their profession becomes a thing of the past.

Yeah and Paris taxi driver who cut tires of Uber car did what was necessary to fight Uber. Sure he essentially did what he had to do and sure since he certainly feels bad about it after being caught then it is fine.

I mean, if I claim my collegue achievments my own or badmouth him behind back to make him look less capable and put myself up, then I am just essentially doing what I have to do, right?
