>I have definitely noticed the happiest people I know, in terms of romance, found their life partner in college.

Definitely. I am almost 30, and I started dating extremely late (26). I'm happy with who I'm with right now, but I envy people who met their significant others in their teens or early 20s. They were able to grow together throughout early adulthood. I had to go through it all alone. I will do everything possible to make it so that my kids don't have to experience the same thing.
I'd say it is easy to get enough of all animos from a whole plant food diet. Using cronometer[1] it is very easy to demonstrate this, I've done it countless times.

On the topic of B12. Many omnis are also B12 deficient, 1 in 5 iirc. In vegans all are eventually B12 deficient under the modern hygiene practices and without supplementation. All B12 originates from microbes that live abundantly in the soil. We are very clean with our food and water, so our plant foods and water are mostly devoid of B12. Pasture fed animals get it "naturally", their factory farmed relatives usually get a B12 supplement. I recommend everyone to get tested for B12 (and D) deficiency as it is very common, and supplement accordingly. Vegans with modern hygiene standards for sure need to supplement (or eat B12-fortified foods).

> B12 as deficiencies in it is a silent killer

Yes. So get your blood tested, and supplement accordingly. This is not something unique to vegans (though a lot more common). For good supplements consult: https://www.toxinless.com

>Therefore, in order to attract a mate, logically women should try to attract a mate when they're younger, and try to improve the way they look. They should not be trying to get more educated or accomplish more in their careers.

Now that's ridiculous, why should women care about getting a mate, it's not like we have a sub-replacement birthrate or anything, or that having children later increases the chance of birth defects.
Yep, pretty much. Unfortunately the protocol's gotten fairly complex without standardisation to keep everyone on the same track. I do my best to simplify the text where I can, but a little more in-depth and correct is better than something simpler that doesn't match real-world implementations.

My experience is opposite.

On one of my previous jobs one problem domain was some area of theoretical physics. There was a guy with brilliant understanding of the problem domain. He had couple of decades of experience teaching physics in the country’s best university. He could explain very hard problems in easy to understand way. The company filed multiple patents with the amazing stuff he invented.

It didn’t help the guy to write code. It wasn’t good. Not only unmaintainable, also slow and unstable (not all algorithms work equally well when mathematically-real numbers are substituted by software-real IEEE754 floats). We ended up just throwing out whatever he coded, and instead learned enough problem domain from him to be able to understand and implement what he actually was trying to do.

It’s precisely BECAUSE the law hasn’t caught up that most of these exist the way that they do at all. Instacart, Postmates, Uber, Lyft, Airbnb, etc. all make profit on the gap between what they pay and what the regulated equivalent pays. Their big competitive advantage is just lower costs by completely ignoring the law. We talk about “innovation” but then these services mostly operate on not paying employees, insurance, benefits, licensing, etc.

If I stop paying taxes and declare my consultancy a religion does that make my innovative? I’m instantly 40% more profitable than the next guy. You can “donate” via a mobile app too! It’s not a payment, it’s a donation. Please note the donation must be as it states on the invoic... err, donation services document.

Would be nice to get more meaningful descriptions than "_ clone."

Also seems a bit selective/biased: For example, Litecoin is "Faster Bitcoin" but Vertcoin is "Bitcoin clone" while the Litecoin codebase is maybe closer to Bitcoin core than any other coin on that list. (Is there any coin on that list that is not "Faster Bitcoin" or a "Bitcoin clone"?)

If anything, "fork" would be more accurate than "clone", but still not really a meaningful description.

Some suggestions:

- Bitcoin Cash: Bitcoin for P2P payments

- Ethereum Classic: Ethereum for immutability purists
I found the odd mix of GNU/AT&T and Intel syntax a little disorienting --- especially all the '%', which the author starts out using in the text but then decides to just suddenly stop using halfway through.

The flowchart view is extremely useful, and from my experience of having taught an Asm class before, in which students were required to do both compilation and decompilation, creating such a graphical representation of the program flow really helps to clarify when going from C to Asm and vice-versa. Lacking software to do it automatically, printing out the code and drawing lines works reasonably well.

That "challenge" function should puzzle anyone who knows even the slightest bit of Asm --- not because of its purpose, but because of how it does it. Subtracting one number and then adding another, is entirely equivalent to adding their sum; so that could be simplified to:

call $+5
pop eax
sub eax, 5
sub eax, [eax-15]
ret

The "call $+5/pop" idiom for "where am I" is also used a lot in packers, so those who have such experience with unpacking will recognise it too. Look at enough Asm (particularly compiler output, but I doubt that example was generated by one) and you'll start to pick up on small inefficiencies/stupidities like this; it really tends to dampen your belief in how optimising compilers actually are in practice. ;-)
Windows Defender doesn't need to compete in the AV marketplace as it's bundled with every single copy of Windows, and also its maker is the same one who makes Windows, and therefore it is in MS's interests to make their AV light and unobtrusive (relatively). Other AV vendors compete fiercely with themselves and this leads to feature creep and bloat, as well as trying to grab the user's attention to sell their features and upgrades. All this leads to a subjectively poorer experience with non-MS AVs under Windows.

It certainly changes his profile. I'm not sure that this makes him at a higher risk of crime or makes him need a wall around him.

> The injustice is that because of the societal wealth disparity, the poorer you are, the less security you can afford.

And indeed there are many poor people who have a much higher risk of crime than this Zucker, whether they have a wall or not.
Yes, this is absolutely the correct metric. For instance, nuts are touted as a high protein food but from a calorie perspective they are often worse than bread - 15% of calories from almonds are protein, compared to ~20% in many breads. Lentils and beans are also touted as a high protein source but are only ~20% protein by calories. Compared that to non-fat Greek yogurt (70-80% protein) or tofu (~50% protein).

A good rule of thumb for finding high protein foods is to look for foods that have calories/10 grams of protein (or more). This equates to 40% of calories from protein.
> why aren’t existing ad networks meeting this need

Because most ad networks are data-gathering scum, and developers know this, thus avoid them at all costs.

This company is at least _promising_ not to track the ads, and only provide basic and relevant conversion data to advertisers. This is a big difference that would mean at least I would be willing to give them a try.

B12 is the only real deficiency vegans experience and it's easily solved by taking a supplement. B12 isn't some miracle vitamin, exclusive to animal products either. It's produced by bacteria in the soil and since we're usually sterilizing our food, it's not usually found on our produce anymore. That's why livestock are getting it supplemented, just the way vegans are supplementing it. It's not even like eating meat and animal products saves you from B12 deficiency as a big chunk of the population is actually deficient.
This whole thing looks a lot like AMDs EHP concept from a couple years ago. In fact I've been waiting for the thread ripper/EPYC approach to get a GPU and HBM in the same package with Ryzen. That would be the perfect module to put into the AMD project quantum concept PC. OTOH the Intel solution is targeted at laptops. Let's hope AMD does the same for the desktop and soon.

When I started out it took a couple of books "c,c++,java" to realize most started from scratch and taught you functions and loops over and over and walked you through a simple program but I needed to find my own way to challenge myself.

These days I look for more books on theory and from people who solved large problems.

Is DevOps Tough?
I recently ordered from DoorDash, a similar service.

The app gave me a price for the order and then had a line item called “Dasher Tip” and asked me how much I wanted to put down. I put in $20.

Later when the woman arrived with the food, we stopped to talk for a minute. She was a little younger than my mom, and said she had just started working for the service after her husband died.

She asked me if she could ask me an awkward question, but I said okay. She wanted to know how much I had tipped her. $20.

She showed me her phone with the app on our order. DoorDash told her we had tipped her $6, which she thought was suspiciously low (we ordered $90 in food).

TL;DR:
DoorDash presented me with an optional field called “Dasher Tip”, which I wasn’t sure of but assumed this was the Tip for the woman bringing us the food. I paid $20 for this “tip” but only $6 made it to the woman (whose husband had died). Incidentally I offered her a cash tip but she refused - she said I had already paid it and it should come from DoorDash.

Last night my friends wanted to order food again. I called it in to the restaurant and we picked it up. I don’t want to use DoorDash anymore.

Owner here. Github is responsible for about 60% of the overall traffic. We support websites as well such as https://jsbin.com and https://codesandbox.io.

I don’t believe Github would ever want to buy Code Sponsor. The goal from the beginning was to provide scalable sources of funding. This has not existed prior.

We do not consider ourselves an advertising network. Here's why:

* We do not display sponsors based on a bid system.
* We only present sponsors that the developers choose.
* Sponsors can select which projects they want to support and which they do not.

The United States has the most advanced military in the world. Boeing and Lockheed are private.

I'm not an expert, maybe it's just a coincidence.
I don't know about in the US but for my engineering degree at an Australian university there were mandatory Ethics classes. One of the courses we were required to take talked about precisely this sort of thing the long term consequences of technology. I remember debating case studies in tutorial groups about things like Asbestos, CFC's, GM crops, cloning and the like. Being considerate of the unintended consequences of technology was very much something we were encouraged to think about.

Another class we took covered the ethical responsibilities of an engineer, regulatory compliance, liability, disclosure, whistle-blowing and the like I still recall vividly hearing during a lecture the story of American Engineer William LeMessurier who was made aware of critical structural defect in a building he had designed and then risked his career and professional reputation to resolve the problem.

I'm a bit saddened to hear other people have these negative opinions about engineering. A lot of us do take the moral and ethical implications of our work quite seriously.

The fact that your statement includes a qualifier ("if the module... was implemented as...") means it's never going to be preferable. Nothing should depend on a qualifier that isn't self-evident from syntax.

As for what is preferable...

const closeServer = () => server.close();
async.timeout(closeServer, 60000)(exit);

Abstracting `server.close()` and naming it `closeServer` may seem to be a bit redundant, but the example given was slightly contrived so this would be almost always preferable in practice.

I dunno - even that source itself says that the death rates from solar would fall using better construction methods. It also notes (in the case of wind) that increased take up is associated with lower death rates ("Wind power proponent and author Paul Gipe estimated in Wind Energy Comes of Age that the mortality rate for wind power from 1980–1994 was 0.4 deaths per terawatt-hour. Paul Gipe’s estimate as of end 2000 was 0.15 deaths per TWh, a decline attributed to greater total cumulative generation.")

I'd also note that the very low rates of death from nuclear power do not appear to include construction deaths, which are the only source of death measured from wind and solar.

Depends on how you define efficiency. Dollar, energy, space, and health: bicycle wins out hugely. Time depends on your route and local infrastructure, and if you count in time you spend at the gym to make up for being sedentary in the car and at the service shop for regular maintenance.

If dropping off the kids with your current cycling equipment is really, really hard, then perhaps your setup is deficient. A lot of what makes school drop off in particular difficult is the sheer mass of cars, which are hardly efficiently using the space or time of everyone there.
