Same thing going on with oil really.

Do you know if it is possible to render a page without serving it from a web server? For example, I have the html of one page of my domain generated by a test. I would like to use puppeteer to render it. But I don't want to setup a http server for this. I would like to give a string with the html + a url to page.goto and let it render the page like it comes from the real server.

I guess I can cheat by intercepting the request and respond with the html I already have. But I wonder if there is already something existing.

> your demand to go from A to B is already created before you choose between a Taxi and Uber

In the Bay Area and New York City, for me, this is untrue. Distances feel smaller when you can cross them with the press of a button. That, in turn, makes peripatetic schedules realistic.

Case in point: I took a Lyft Line from Berkeley to Mountain View yesterday. If that wasn't an option, I would have (a) taken the train or (b) not gone that far.
You should have said "thinking outside of the abstraction" instead. Bits are implementation details. The very knowledge of linear-feedback shift register is essential in this particular example.

> CPUs are powerful enough to use a naive fade transition. But coders who are aware of the internal workings can make it even faster on todays hardware.

Not really. No one would do the fade transition---or more accurately, the regional alpha blending with a fixed color---in CPU nowadays exactly because GPUs are much more capable in that job, and such a job is actually fairly easy in most abstractions used because it is an integral part of UX and whatever. The ability of leveraging all resources and determining their efficient utilization is a key.

"U" is a preposition in Czech, meaning "At" - the local pub naming is slightly different from e.g. English, where the pub would be named "The Bear Cubs" or something, whereas in Czech, it's literally "At the Bear Cubs". And they do run their own brewery there, too, so you were correct about that as well.

As for Tesco - the banner out front is misleading, Tesco only has the supermarket in the basement.

There isn't any proof that this drug provides any benefit to athletes. It is easy to think all PEDs work when your only knowledge is EPO and steroids. Other stuff... much less testing and the performance boost might be neglible.
>but the death rate of births is a net negative

That’s a seriously interesting point. Maternal death rate is 280 micromorts. Infant death (neonatal + perinatal) is about 1% in modern countries (10,000 micromorts), for a net of -989,700 micromorts, or +0.99 lives (not counting multiple births, etc).

For those who only care about the output of fib(20) there are more efficient methods than any of the Julia or Python implementations posted in the link, e.g. lookup tables.

The assumption in benchmarks is of course that the results carry over to other use cases. Here, what is being tested is the overhead in recursion, nothing else. The fact that it happens to be Fibonacci-numbers that is being computed is irrelevant.
>pulling my hair out over garbage SNR

I have my sincere doubts that EEG devices can ever function satisfactorily in residential homes. Too many microwaves and fridges, turns out there's a reason hospital EEGs are done in faraday cage rooms.

Ugh. Does the U.S. have to go through this phoney "it's really good for medicine!" process to legalize every drug?

Is that the only community acceptable path to changing long standing beliefs about these terrible terrible drugs?

How about taking a general position that the war on drugs has failed and has created far bigger problems than were ever presented by individual people making decisions that impact their own health.

People of the U.S.A. - it's not necessary for every formerly demonized recreational drug to go through a "hey it's medically valid" process. Unless of course yuour goal is to prop up the system of handing out "legal to use marijuana" certificates that the medical profession now depends on.

How would you make them answer truthfully? Admitting to being tired either means you're showing personal weakness, or you're calling your superiors incompetent at scheduling. Neither possibility sounds good for your career. I think it would be better to measure reaction times, eg. by making them catch a falling ruler immediately after it's dropped and seeing how far it falls.

It's not a tiny detail. It's not tax-deductible if someone pays directly. It has to go straight to the charity
It mostly depends on what paradigm you are using. They seem to use the P300 response (your brain's response to an "anticipated surprise") which indeed benefits quite a lot from additional sensors because the response can be found all over the brain. If they were using motor imagery then you only need electrodes on the sensory-motor cortex.

First concern is cost, additional sensors of good quality are expensive (for example, a single g.Tec dry electrode costs about 100 euros). If you use gel electrodes (which are vastly superior to dry electrodes) then you add preparation time.

One of the biggest hurdles of EEG for games is practicality. People were annoyed when they had to spend a few seconds calibrating their Kinect, now imagine you would have to spend 5-15 minutes donning and calibrating the system each time you wished to play.

I dont particularly care for your generalisation about younger coders, as a younger coder. There are many of us who do care about the low level details of our code, and take extra care to write good performant code. To make a generalisation about "older" programmers - I have the feelings that older coders are stuck in their ways and aren't willing to change their behaviours, and when a younger coder tries to suggest improvements, they're hand waved away because we have less experience.
On the flip side, it can be hard to believe that there are North Korean higher ups that did escape risking death, when in their home country they are at least not going to die. There are North Korean escapees residing in South Korea when they already had a high status back in North Korea. Fellow peers that tried to escape with him died.
Civil disobedience is never about products you don't like, its a tool when society doesn't work not when you don't like the inside of a store (analogy of store == website); you don't start throwing rocks at stores because when you entered you found some announcements you didn't like; that's not civil disobedience, that's just assault at private propriety and sociopath behavior.
All mention of Coriolis should refer to this 1965 Letter in Nature magazine titled "The Bath-Tub Vortex in the Southern Hemisphere"

> At Tom Fink’s invitation, Professor Lloyd M. Trefethen of Tufts University, USA, spent
a short sabbatical in Mechanical Engineering in 1964/65. Already famous for his work on
surface tension phenomena, he led us into a repeat of the experiments on the bathtub
vortex that had recently been conducted by Ascher Shapiro at MIT. After much careful
design, a circular tank of some 2.4m in diameter and 0.4m depth was constructed and
installed in one of the subterranean dungeons of the old Peter Nicol Russell building.
Carefully designed procedures and their diligent execution resulted in absolutely
conclusive results that were published in Nature [Trefethen, et al, 1965). A re-enactment
for the local media was a disaster: Bilger and Tanner muffed the removal of the covering
baffles creating a great vortex in the water that then went out the wrong way. ‘Scientists
baffled’ cried the media. We even made Time magazine!
Fully agree. But to gain experience and intuition, sometimes you have to work close to one extreme, and the other extreme, to know in what situation the middle ground is. And to get a real feel what the benefits and drawbacks are.

Everything is always a trade-off. And it's the situation that can tell you which trade-offs you are prepared to make.

I like the phrase that your code, tests, etc, need to be "good enough". Because "good enough" is, you know, good enough. That way you can spend time on what matters the most.
Feasibility studies, hiring experts to write reports, the salaries of everyone in the department, etc? I have no idea, but conceivably if one wanted a juicy headline, there's ways to get it.

There are quite a lot of papers that show you can actually modulate SSVEP response even without eye movement. Their protocol was quite fascinating, they used a swarm of targets with four frequencies all intermingled. You had vertical and horizontal (short) lines which were either blue or red. One would control the system by concentrating on blue horizontal stripes for example. Of course the throughput was quite low even for a BCI. I think more research in this vein could reveal some interesting possibilities.
Not when applied without wisdom, but it's an excellent predictor of subsets of human behaviour, and a subset of those generalise well enough to satisfactorily explain existing phenomena. Simply because one has to be selective doesn't make it unworkable. It does make for misleading headlines, though.

> Even so, I understand LuaJIT had to drop some Lua features to get there.

Not true. LuaJIT is complete Lua. The difference, besides being jitted are: having parts written in assembly, super optimisations and things like FFI which cannot be written in C89. Main Lua uses nothing but C89 which makes it run on almost anything so this is not the case for LuaJIT. Also vanilla Lua is way smaller and the source code is cleaner simpler. Divergence in the language is not because LuaJIT dropped some features but because it was created while Lua was on version 5.1. Now Lua is on 5.3 and LuaJIT didn't catch up on everything yet, it is basically 5.1 compatible with some sprinkles of 5.2.

There's some relevant business wisdom: "what gets measured gets done".

By aligning our educational institutions towards testing we created educational institutions that teach the test and not the rest.

Standardized testing is super important. I agree, though, it's a pretty poor proxy for how well schools are performing and who needs what... By way of example: schools with low-scoring test takers likely have environmental issues that impact school performance. The conclusion should likely be beefing up the budget and expanding the schools role to being more "community centers" full of social workers.

Poverty is a cycle, individual disruptive elements in school hurt all students, and that little 'war on drugs' has removed a lot of the support structure we expect in those families... Reducing the budget of schools with students in bad situations who can't test properly because their students are in bad situations and therefore can't test properly seems like a self-fulfilling prophecy. A prophecy that happens to align very nicely with the ideology and stated goals of the group that pushed "no child left behind".
About 1500 people successfully defect each year to the south these days (there have been over 30,000 defectors to SK so far).

Probably a few 1000's more escape the work camps in China and Russia and assimilate locally.

This is a situation where all parties have no incentives to make defection public, in fact their incentive is the complete opposite.

South Korea will not publicize defection because of fear retaliation both against any familial ties the defectors might have and against SK proper.

The North won't because it would make them look weak, for the North even unsuccessful defections will be hushed since why would anyone want to defect from Paradise?

Monetary value isn't entirely founded on use-value of anything though.

'Coins' have value because a corpus of people has agreed it; you can exchange one for anything of you can convince someone else the coin has a particular value (which might just mean that it works as a stable exchange currency).
If you are well connected in the adult business it is easy to get financing from other adult businesses and even more important massive traffic. But you need to have a unique concept that converts traffic which she clearly doesn't have.
