Good point. I think people may confuse logic with believability.

I could propose in this comment a cure for cancer based on a perfectly sound a logical argument and my (lack of medical) credibility would have zero affect on the cogency of what I was saying.

But it does mean, you should probably not be convinced, or at least not send me all of your money to invest in my cancer research startup.

Also for some reason it's very easy to judge something as reasonable when we actually don't have any domain expertise. Not sure why, it seems built into most of us to feel natural.
But that's what's implied. It's right there in the tweet:

> Just received verbal govt approval for The Boring Company to build an underground NY-Phil-Balt-DC Hyperloop. NY-DC in 29 mins.

Obviously they'll need to be _some_ ground level access. But no where near the type of access an above-ground hyperloop would.
Do wonder if it has anything to do with their switch of GTK version "recently"...
SO electron is again chrome. Doesn't it shield DOM and allow access only through content scripts. SO isn't the same model available in Electron ?
I'm not familiar with that exception in logical thinking. What argument is logically dependent on someone's credibility?
I take a train that's on a specific schedule. I try to not over-work myself, so if I have time between the train and finishing most of my work, I'll use it for myself. Just because I'm in the office doesn't mean I'm on the clock.
Using a programming language does not force you to join a community; and what is the Rust community, anyway? Which Rust community? The Code of Conduct pertains to the official venues of communication, not the language itself. All communities have rules. And the rules are quite normal of any community that wants something resembling civility.
IMHO Redux is a heavy, clunky and awkward practice that is only holding React back.

My advice to anyone reading this forum is give MobX a try before deciding to commit to Redux.
100% this. The transportation problem began when cars were seen as the one true solution for everything, and the zone policy makers could assume that any pair of points A and B can simply be connected by a highway. Let to the rise of suburbs and decline of city life.

The reality is that USA has terrible trains. Our transportation technology is horribly behind in everything but cars. You can tear down this guy as much as you want, but the truth is that our trains are decades behind China and Japan. This is an effort by private industry to bring us back to the forefront, and we should embrace it.
Hey hey! You too. Sorry I had to skip town before we could grab a drink, it was a hectic trip!

> the decision to remove async IO from Rust

I'd be interested in hearing more about this, did they maybe mean green threads? https://tokio.rs/ is the big async-io project, it's certainly not removed in any sense!
I took the train from New York to New Haven once. I have no idea if that's Amtrak or whatever, but it was the only time I took a train in the US and it was slowest train journey I have ever been on, felt like we never went faster than about 40mph. That should be a 45min trip not >2hrs. Are all trains that slow? Maybe that's where they should start.

> obesity is actually a hormonal regulatory disorder, and the hormone that dominates this process is insulin

where exactly in this sentence did you read "calories don't matter"?

> Caloric number is all you need to care about

no it is not. calorie source is important. some sources spike your insulin, some don't. insulin spikes are bad.

> just a way to get your calorie intake down

no, it's a way to lower blood glucose and remove insulin spikes. healthy caloric deficit is important for sustainable weight loss, but avoiding foods that cause insulin roller coaster is also important. and to get into ketosis it's literally the only thing that matters.
That's a nice decision. Thanks for committing to it so quickly in public. Props.

Good luck with the product merge. Don't wreck it with complexity :)
If you know anything about LA geography you realize this is a laughable "solution".
Laws against inherent characteristics seem to me at least to be worse than laws which ban behavior. Conflating the two in order to make some particular law sound worse seems sort of dishonest to me.
I'm not going to give an inch on this. This isn't an issue of logic versus persuasion. It is logically valid to attack the credibility of an argument that depends in any way, implicitly or overtly, on the credibility or authority of its bearer.

The "ad hominem fallacy" is misused on the Internet probably more than it is applied correctly.
>This is like saying the average human body contains twenty to thirty pounds of fat so you should eat 10,000 times more fat than sugar.

You should eat substantially more fat than sugar, yes. But if you don't your body turns excess Sugar into fat.
I'm from a much milder but still hot climate, and while the summer weather probably wouldn't make you faint in minutes, people spent very little time outside of air conditioned homes, cars, and shops, and the towns were designed around that fact.
Rust has made major strides in the cryptocurrency industry. Cryptocurrencies are largely becoming powered by Rust, because with cryptocurrencies, there is no room for error.
To try it out, make sure that your Linux kernel has:

CONFIG_TCP_CONG_BBR

CONFIG_NET_SCH_FQ (not to be confused with FQ_CODEL)

Put these into /etc/sysctl.conf:

net.core.default_qdisc=fq

net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=bbr

Reboot.
Overleaf has its advantages (e.g. better git integration) but I haven't heard much praise for their editor. In my own experience, the Overleaf editor is slower and more cumbersome to use than ShareLaTeX. It's much harder to rearrange files and compile time to PDF is much slower. You also can't set your main doc to be in a subdirectory of the project.

I hope this partnership means we'll soon have the ShareLaTeX frontend on top of the Overleaf backend. That would be a truly powerful combination.
For those interested in a simple guide on how to try it on your servers, this is the most to the point I've found.

I've worked for two different tech companies in Barcelona, neither had lunch breaks longer than an hour.

When I moved from the UK I was shocked that 9-5 was not the norm, in both places the schedule was more 9-7 with the same amount of lunch time as in the UK and far more pressure to stay on later than 7.
You're assuming that the goal of drug prohibition is to reduce violence.
Cortical, in this context, refers to the cortex of the brain (the wrinkly, outermost layer).
"no matter what warning we flashed if someone virtually touched a hot steam nozzle, they frequently got too close to it in the real world, and we needed a chaperone at the ready to grab their hand away. "

Obviously they need to "die" in game, a few times starting the whole thing all over from the beginning and they'll never "burn" their hands again. I wish I could tell the author this....

LeoCAD seems to have a Linux version (whereas Lego's own designer does not). For me, that'd be a compelling reason to use the former instead of the latter.
On the other hand, the fact that they're saying not everyone is ready "yet" seems to imply that they expect to eventually migrate everyone off standalone vaults.
This is what I've used for quite a while. It's not the fanciest, but it is simple and easy to use.

For backup, I use duplicity to encrypt my .password-store and all other private files. I have it spit the output to my dropbox folder so it syncs automatically.

This keeps what sites I have passwords for hidden from the outside world.

I've looked a little into keeping the entire .password-store folder encrypted locally until I try to use it, but I guess I'm not paranoid enough for the hassle.
Their example uses log_10 instead of ln
I think you are right.

I used to drink a lot. Way too much I think. Then I quit cold turkey for 5 months earlier this year.

Ever since I started drinking again, I just cannot even drink 10 percent of what I used to just last year. I too have relegated drinking to only on the weekends because the next day is just horrible.
No. If you follow the letter of the contract, most IP assignments claim everything their employees do, but practically, that's just because it's impossible to write a contract that says "everything you do for your job, nothing that you don't".

The primary driver is that you don't want to get into litigating how much time your salaried employees work. So most employers will tacitly ignore side projects, only coming after devs who write code that steals users or shifts revenue from their customers to a project that a dev claims to own. And that's pretty rare.

Although most users of LaTeX are in the STEM fields, they're also way too busy with actual research to find joy in dicking around with command-line tools.

I think the computer field is unusual in that computer people think everyone must be dying to learn The Way even if it costs them time and (from their perspective at least) risks significant losses. Doctors advise diet and exercise, but don't find it puzzling when people don't.
Here's what I ran into the other day.

I go to a website and click a "Pay with Bitcoin" button and am taken to a page where I have to send X BTC to Y address. Ok, easy to copy and paste them, I've done this plenty of times in the past.

And then I see "don't pay directly from an exchange!" because they take longer to send transactions or don't pay enough in transaction fees or something. I used a regular local wallet for a time but have been using Coinbase as my wallet ever since, and now that won't work. I've normally been able to pay via Coinbase very easily. Let's just download the blockchain...

120 GB? Well, better grab an old external hard drive...

26 hours to sync, despite my 200 Mbps cable connection? I guess I'm not paying with Bitcoin today.

I can definitely see how paying with Bitcoin could be annoying to an average consumer nowadays.
You're right about not being able to choose ISP. What I don't understand is, why don't ISPs just offer data-tiered plans?
For instance, this Newsweek article and the claims made by the doctor in it depend on the doctor's own reports of their interpretations of MRI scans. Observing that the doctor making those interpretations is disreputable is an important and logically meaningful point.

Really what you're observing is that the argument in Newsweek sidesteps logic and appeals implicitly to the authority of that doctor. Presented with the argument that the subject of the article is credible enough to be believed on their own terms, we're left with a debate about that subject's credibility.

The weird idea embedded in this meta-debate is that alone among all the innumerable topics we can address with logical argument, from rankings of Led Zeppelin songs to the proper distribution of ownership of the means of production between capital and labor, the credibility of a human being on any particular subject is exempt from scrutiny, lest we fall into the trap of "ad hominem".

I'm GP and I'm disputing the implicit false choice: that we must pick between low cost home construction or greener lifestyles.

If the problem is that consumers aren't internalizing costs, then solve that problem directly, with a carbon or energy tax.

Working and middle class families can do things (cut energy usage, dry laundry on a clothesline, live in smaller homes, etc.) to adjust to those prices changing. Families don't have control over developers, so they have limited ability to adjust to the economics of affordable housing development.

Has Intel ever made a productive acquisition?
There's a couple of ways to translate that. There's the way you did:

> "I know about some security flaws (or behind-the-scenes issues with the dev teams) in other products, but I can't reveal them publicly because of NDAs, etc"

But there is also:

> "I know enough to recommend this product, but I don't know enough about the other products -- not necessarily because I lack the skill, but because I haven't spent the time -- to endorse/recommend them."
I should clarify the "remove async IO" as the decision to not include an event-loop primitive in the core language or stdlib, which is tantamount to complaining about GC not being part of Rust core :)

Metal IO is an awesome library as well:

Integer Overflow into Information Disclosure
Like I said, I'm not saying it doesn't happen.
Ok, so let's say there is 350 km in an almost straight line. A great tunnel boring machine excavates around 20 meters per day in average (80 m on good days; next to nothing on other days). So that's 140 meters per week or 7 km per year. With 10 of those he could cover the distance in 5 years. For one tube. If he wants 2, 3 or 4 tubes, which would make sense on such busy stretch, he would need 2, 3 or 4 machines more. Musk claims the Boring Company will drill faster than traditional tunnel boring machines. If he could go twice as fast, he could do with half the machines.

It's doable, I guess, but I think the regulatory obstacles, archeological excavations, etc would slow it all down more than the machines.
Alienation is rarely a welcome topic for the people who benefit from it.
The thing is, the exact customer you are describing already exists and takes the Accela. And that trip takes 2 hours one way! Cutting that by 5x would be transformative. Plus, lots and lots of commuters in the del-mar-va area are already used to 120min+ round trip commutes and I imagine NYC/NJ commuters are similar.
BBR uses mode switching to learn what the latency is and what its fair share bandwidth is.

Hm. I'm not sure about the addition of unions. Why add something that is unsafe to read or write? You need an additional mechanism to let you know which type it is OK to access.

They mention the case where the type can be distinguished by the lest significant bit, but wouldn't it be better to handle that case as an enum? That is, the least significant bits define the enum tag, while the remaining bits define the associated value.

(By the way, I really mean this as a straight question, not a criticism in the form of a rhetorical question. I really don't know enough about it to be criticizing it.)

Come on, whoever you are. You're seriously going to drop words like infarction, thalami, FLAIR hyper intensity, massive cortical infarction on us? What's the point? Maybe 1% of the people on this public forum will have even the slightest clue what you're talking about.

Luckily someone else has posted a dictionary underneath you, but I mean, surely you're used to speaking to laymen? You couldn't have just said "tissue death" instead of "infarction?"
I may not be up to date, but my understanding was that Tesla makes battery packs, not the cells themselves. They get the cells from outside suppliers.
I made a promise to myself that I would not mention specific vendors in my posts here -- for good or for bad, in order not to take away from my message -- but it was one of the two most talked-about and recommended vendors that you hear about in r/kratom. And it makes sense that people would recommend a vendor whose product contains stronger opiates or potentiators, because the effects are stronger. The thing about kratom is that the vast majority of consumers are new to it, because they only just heard about it from the publicity it received when the DEA tried scheduling it. So you have a ton of people that have no experience with kratom whatsoever, gauging the "quality" of a vendor's products based on how it makes them feel, and ignoring some of the warning signs, or flatly not researching it beforehand. Only a significant minority of kratom consumers are using it to come off of hard opiates. Most people (like me) are taking it for its pain-relieving and mood-stabilizing effects. I suppose some minority of users are trying kratom to test the "high", too. But kratom doesn't get you "high" (unless it's adulterated). And unfortunately, some consumers are landing on a kratom vendor that's unknowingly or knowingly selling kratom with something extra thrown in. It's a sticky situation, because testing is not the norm. Thankfully, kratom is cheap enough that it often doesn't make economic sense to adulterate kratom. But in the ever-increasingly competitive market for Indonesian distributors, more and more are willing to take those extra steps to have kratom that stands out from the crowd, and let there be no mistake: There are some cheap adulterants, especially with China next door. The fairly new, explosive growth of the kratom industry is completely changing some of the poorest regions of Indonesia for the better. But as with anything like this, there are scumbags getting into it, looking for a golden ticket. We've been very lucky so far that adulteration is not the norm, but those days may be coming to an end, as demand starts to skyrocket. That's why I'm so big on testing, because gambling that "chances are, it won't be adulterated" is not a viable option.
Hey, I'm on the Apollo team! As mentioned in the blog post, this is just a thin wrapper around the regular GraphQL.js implementation, with a few small bells and whistles added!

The intention of this library isn't to change a lot about how GraphQL servers are written, it's just a stable, community focused library to bind your GraphQL server to a schema.

Both of my kids can happily float /doggie paddle in floaties so far, with the older one in daily classes. She started at age 6 months--she's old enough to understand it, but the article that prompted my fears was about a 6 year old who just happened to inhale enough water to make a difference a week later. My younger one is still testing to see what he can get away with, and can't communicate things like "hey my chest feels funny" yet.

When my wife and I were on our honeymoon we watched a couple throw their 6 month old (10 month maybe? wasn't walking, only crawling) in the pool over and over again. Most of the pool looked on in horror, but they had taught her the "leg kick to turn over onto her back and float" skill. Definitely gave us perspective.

I don't think the usage of "rate" here meant the ease of converting sugar from some particular source into blood glucose, but rather how much of blood glucose is used up by the body per unit of time.

The issue wouldn't be so much that a coke has a large amount of sugar compared to expected blood glucose levels, but rather whether that can of coke puts a person in a caloric surplus. At any point in time there might be some glucose either coming in or coming out of our bloodstream. Expected blood glucose levels don't tell us much about that. For instance, two people might have the same blood glucose levels but two completely different energetic requirements due to differing levels of physical activity.

At least, that's what I get from the post you're responding to. Mind you, I don't think that a calorie is a calorie: consuming shitloads of sugar might be bad for anyone for other reasons besides inducing caloric surpluses, so energy sources aren't perfect substitutes for one another. But I don't see what insight is to be gained from the relationship between the amount of sugar in a coke can and average blood glucose levels either.
GraphQL will probably overtake REST in a few years time:

https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=today%205-y&q=...

If you were building a large scale API now, having duplicate data at each resource (eg, avatar icon URLs in /feed) or requiring users to cross reference multiple resources for a single simple task (eg GETing /users and /feed to draw a simple timeline with user avatars) is a hassle and there's no real reason to force yourself or your API consumers through it.

as mentioned above, saving to synced cloud storage gives multi device access, and so long as your mobile platform has clients for both your storage and keepass, you are good. Although you do need to reopen/resync after any changes since the client at location 2 might not be aware of the changes propagated through cloud storage by the client at location 1
