I would just delete that part if it can't be solved. Smaller issues with code are, that you create new string just to compare it (ToLower makes new instance), when you can achieve this just by using proper comparer such as

ex.InnerException.Message.IndexOf("duplicate", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) > -1

Good idea would also be to check for existence of Inner exception at all

ex.InnerException?.Message.IndexOf("duplicate", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) > -1

But I would just live without that check to prevent magical behavior.
> They just don't care about updates, otherwise they would remove certification access to any OEM not providing updates.

I think they care, but they can't do something about it. Because OEM's dislike updates.
Updates does not sell new phones.

Google on the other hand actually has it easier if all their devices are up to date. They do not need to maintain old code/branches whatever.

It's still Google's fault that they never had something in place to enforce it.
They basically wanted to have anybody on board of the OHA, so they needed to make tradeoffs in their contracts.

- Bear Baiting was another cruel blood sport
- Fox Tossing - with a person on each end of a sling tossed the fox upwards, the team with the highest throw would win.
- Rat-baiting
- Venatio - played out in Roman amphitheaters involving the hunting and killing of wild animals.

Ideally I'd like the same Dockerfile used for both local dev as well as deployment. To do this, we're using something similar to the first Dockerfile, with the `nodemon` install.

Then in a docker-compose.override.yml,

command: nodemon --inspect=0.0.0.0:5858 /code/bin/www

To allow for debugging as well. We delete that .override.yml file as part of the CI build/deploy.
Yes, that is the usual way of doing it. However, the point of this post was to showcase some ways of reducing duplicate code in large projects. Doing it normally (by checking if the entity already exists) can get repetitive if you have many controllers/entities. If you know of a better way of doing this, I'd be happy to update my article :)

I have not had much contact with Windows 10 so far. But a former coworker had a Windows phone, and there, Cortana was pretty good actually. We once had a "competetion" where we asked Cortana, Siri and "OK Google" to "tell a dirty joke".

Cortana won hands down by actually telling a joke (it was about dirty laundry, but it was ambiguous enough that I think Cortana actually "got it".

OTOH, I feel really weird literally talking to a computer, and I don't think I will ever overcome that.

Generally there are loopholes for creative works and editorial use. Add in that several people may look alike -- Google "Doppleganger". Creative works that are derived from a character's, or a person's appearance aren't copyrightable. They can sue based upon defamation of character and damages but outside of that there isn't much recourse. And if it's done in an editorial fashion, for humor or other art, good luck with the cases.

I never thought of it a separate sub-culture. Many metalheads (from thrashists to blackers) wear vests/jackets padded with favorite band logos, so it's just a small, not even mandatory part of metal sub-culture (which in turn has many sub-sub-cultures). Recently I started seeing skaters and hipsters wearing something like that too. Or do I miss something?
You can use most images without permission if it's not for profit, or for editorial purposes and many news-use and creative works fall into these categories. They can sue for defamation, but yeah...
The red and green specialists: why human colour vision is so odd
Depends where you go, and how you act. In the Amazon part of the country and in Galapagos, it's hard to find crime, but in Guayaquil, it's sometimes unavoidable.

Many Ecuadorian people are comfortable about stealing from Americans, or ripping them off, and there's a sense of "these Americans won't miss it." Partly, this idea is imposed by the government, which charges different prices for some services (including airfare) to Europeans, Canadians and Americans. I've encountered (and sometimes lost money to) attempted ripoffs by taxi drivers, laundry services, restaurants, and even a surgeon.

Yet I haven't had much stuff stolen from me in Ecuador, and in fact a local acquaintance felt so bad to see me lose the only item that was stolen, she bought me a replacement.

”mercury is frozen in northern permafrost soil”

Is it? From a quick scan, I couldn’t find any reference to mercury compounds in the paper, and pure Mercury has a freezing point of -38,83 °C.

Seems you could crush the frozen ground, and the Mercury would drop out. Also, if that’s the case, how much of it would simply drop deeper into the ground when the permafrost thaws?

There are number of clone script available for Uber like Marketplace and they are very useful to start a business But according to me I suggest Taxi Booking App like YouRide, which is available with more features. I think it will be very useful to you, there they can provide not only the good script but also best after sales service. They also offer Android source and IOS source code for starting a marketplace app.

Understanding market demand and spotting market trend, a high-quality YouRide Uber clone script has been developed by Das infomedia. Using this app script, it would be fast and economical way of launching an On-demand marketplace app for both iOS and Android devices.

Youride is a on Demand Marketplace Script which has all the features like uber app. Youride is an advanced solution for building any marketplace like plumber, electrician, garage, beautician, roofer or cook.

So, Instead of you trying to build all this from scratch ( which would easily take more than many months of development effort & spending )....

I would suggest you to go with an existing solution like: YouRide uber clone script : Android source and IOS source code for starting a marketplace app where you can save a lot of time & money.

If someone needs to build Uber like Marketplace, Do check http://www.uberclone.co.uk/

Thank You.

I use a large local music colelction too and it's much easier to get your music to a new phone:

- Get an iPhone that has enough storage to store your entire music collection. Sicne mine is lossless that phone doesn't exist, but luckily iTuens has an option to transcode to a lossy format on the fly before syncing to your iPhone.

- Alternatively and if storage is a concern, just put everything you'd like to sync in a playlist and only sync this palylist.

There's really no need to write everything down.
I'm not asking you to give a good definition of science.

I'm pointing out that the author of the piece make an assertion that only repeatable experiments count as scientific results.

I disagree.

I want to know why we should not accept results which are not repeatable.

You response seems to be more aligned with mine views than that of the author.

For something down to earth, is the Amgen publication a scientific result?

Even if we accept that the author is correct, what it it mean to repeat, say, an epidemiological study? We can't repeat the exact conditions. All we can do is be "close".

I myself really dislike that piece of code (searching in exception strings isn't secure for many reasons, for example someone could use this to reverse-engineer information about my database).

Any other ideas?

I think you're wrong. Or you consider the step of adding a song to your sync playlist harder than checking for every song manually when changing phones? I find that hard to believe.

If you select a playlist to be synced you only need to maintain that playlist on the Mac. Any change will be synced to the iPhone.

You could also create a smart playlist with conditions that cover any song / album you'd like to include. But at that point why not snyc the whole library?

I either misunderstand you or you are making this way more complicating than it is.

The real problem here is that the accrual things bringing happiness take time (art, side projects, friends, family) and this is incompatible with income maximization (therefore savings maximization) on fundamental level. If it is just discretionary "comfort" spending perhaps you could rethink why are you doing it.

Savings essentially work like a buffer and can be used to supplement a pension. How much buffer you can hold and afford depends on many expenses.

Many people are unable to even trade time for these things as their jobs which are full time pay too little - barely subsistence.

Telling them to save more or switch jobs is not the solution. (I bet they would of they could)

I love AWS because it offers immediate solutions at your fingertips, however, I am skeptical of Lambda's ubiquity.

Too many times have I drank the Kool-Aid for `someManagedAWSService` and then been surprised by the resultant costs. For example, be very careful when using things like DynamoDB and Lambda. One can easily use DynamoDB incorrectly and end up wasting lots of money. Similarly, I think it would be very easy to adopt some sort of "replace everything with Lambda" approach which would be a misplaced effort as well. Lambda has a specific time and place, it is not a silver bullet.
carbon is the latest LTS (Long Term Support) version of Node. Instead of using the latest version, which can have breaking changes and possible drop of support in the future, it is recommended to use LTS version just to ensure using a stable + well supported version. alpine base images are generally used to cut down the image size for production, because they are very minimal and works well for most use-cases. But you would generally use carbon or specific full blown version of node in development, because you can install system dependencies for bundling code.

I love tinc for another reason too. I've been using it for many, many years, and the one feature of the re-routing that always amazes me is:

I'm on the laptop, connected to Gb ethernet--- I do work on remote servers (via tinc).

I pull the cable, the lappy's network reconfigure to wifi, tinc re-connects and...

my connections to the remote serves have not skipped a beat. As far as x2go, ssh or VNC, the 'ethernet' it's using is still up; might have lost a couple packets, but that's it.

I just love it.

I read before (this study) that mercury accumulates at the poles more than anywhere else. Context was affect on wildlife there, some birds turning gay [0][1] (that effect is location independent, but I read it first in a northern location context). A possible reason for it to "go north" is mentioned here: [2].

> Environmental scientists at Harvard have discovered that the Arctic accumulation of mercury ... is caused by both atmospheric forces and the flow of circumpolar rivers that carry the element north into the Arctic Ocean.

[1] also is a pretty good article on the effects of mercury on wildlife.

There also is mentioning of possible pathways to the north here: [3] - unlike [2] they claim it's mostly through the atmosphere though.

> From our observation site north of Alaska’s Brooks Range, we determined that gaseous elemental mercury in the atmosphere is the dominant source of Arctic mercury. We calculated that it accounted for 70 percent of the mercury that finds its way into tundra soil.
