Worth noting that the genetics here was just 3 SNPs based on a 2010 candidate-gene study of apparently n=133 (it was never published, it's just a conference talk, based on the citation & description of the work in https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052748703862704575099... ), which made the absolutely crazy claim that "those with a genetic predisposition to benefit from a low-carbohydrate diet lost 2 1/2 times as much weight as those on the same diet without the predisposition". So unfortunately, their total failure is exactly what you would predict from a non-GWAS-derived set of SNPs and the result is meaningless. This tells you nothing about whether SNPs can predict or cause more/less weight loss, be used to optimize diet choice, or have any cross-racial differences, despite people apparently interpreting it that way.
> "Another feature wish for Waze: voice-activated incident reporting. It's hard to tag accidents/hazards/speed traps while driving by hand, not to mention dangerous and illegal."

Yeah, I'm often struck by the irony of the "typing disabled unless you confirm you're a passenger" prompt, in light of the (prompt-less) 5(?) tap workflow to report a road hazard, while driving.

And it truly sucks at telling you which way to turn coming out of a parking lot.

OTOH it gets my eta ~right.

And the ~recent "enable use of bluetooth to keep your position updated in gps-blocking tunnels" was clever and useful.

But for me those are all relatively minor considerations. Waze is my constant companion behind the wheel, for one reason: there is (to my knowledge) simply no competition for its "crowd-sourced radar detector+" hazard and speed-trap reporting.
Can’t tell if sarcastic or not. Burning food to release chemically stored energy therein seems like it would correlate naturally to the chemical energy an organism could extract.
The thing about the HipChat suggestions box is that you had to collect "votes" for your "suggestion" to be considered.

So you could try to get their attention to the bug of "when you paste XML into a code block, it replaces it with subtly different, broken XML, my suggestion is to stop doing that", but it's going to be sitting several pages beyond "please add a left shark emoji!!!"

You can try to get your whole office to stack the vote, but why? I only have to be one person to report a bug to Slack.
>but there is a lot of individual incentive to “defect” and rent your speculative/parked real estate.

Ah, look it's someone that has never rented property before.

a) You rent your house in a city in California. You figure out your renter is trash, and is trashing your house. You can't move them out for months and they do tens of thousands of property damage in the meantime.

b) You live in a city with rent price fixing.

c) You don't have time to manage the property, but have been burned by poor rental management companies.
I once quit a valuable job, because my desk was situated in an open office floor plan, in front of a smart TV with an attached webcam for video chat meetings.

I was a person with a job title in control of passwords and two-factor auth routines that served as a potential gateway to millions of credit card numbers.

It pissed me off that these people needed us to have our daily morning stand-up right next to my desk, but it pissed me off even more, that I had a camera over my shoulder, running an operating system that I couldn’t audit with an admin account.

Rather than rocking the boat, and coming across as a paranoid obsessive control freak security goon, I drafted my resume, and who knows what’s going on at that place by now.

To anybody out there, dreaming up bullshit concepts and investing your youth in retarded start up ideas, when everything goes to shit and you’re left high and dry, it will be people like me who turned our collective backs on you, because of shit decision making like this.
How much secure this will be ?

My concern is what if some one show my digital photo to the website, will framework detect it ?

Apple said that they over come this by using true depth technology (which i guess required specific hardware).

I like the idea thought, but there is a big reason people did not implemented this before.
Forget the trip times. Apple maps routinely failed to work correctly, often sending me in circles and telling me to take streets that didn't exist (walking paths, etc).

Waze has only one thing going for it, and that is the ability to see speed traps. Often it requires keeping an eye on it ahead of your current position as the cops move around now that Waze has become popular.

However, my car doesn't like to use Waze instead of Google Maps. If I hit the "navi" button while in Android Auto mode, it will always bring me to google maps even if I'm currently navigating in Waze. That caused me to stop using Waze entirely, but it is not the fault of Waze themselves, but Mercedes poor technology.
A guide to HEAD elements
Using Yelp to Find the Next Hot Neighborhood
When I first read this question it was grey, but it's a good question, perhaps too technical for the most readers.

There are a few similar concepts

* irreducible elements: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_element

> In abstract algebra, a non-zero non-unit element in an integral domain is said to be irreducible if it is not a product of two non-units.

* prime element: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_element

> An element p of a commutative ring R is said to be prime if it is not zero or a unit and whenever p divides ab for some a and b in R, then p divides a or p divides b.

In the integers the definitions are equivalent, but in more general cases they are different.

* prime ideal: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_ideal

> An ideal P of a commutative ring R is prime if it has the following two properties:
If a and b are two elements of R such that their product ab is an element of P, then a is in P or b is in P, [and]
P is not equal to R for the whole ring.

The prime ideals are a "generalization" of the prime numbers to more general sets, that have elements that may not even look like numbers. It's a very important idea in algebra, and it's not an straightforward generalization because the elements in the new set may not have all the properties that the number have. (More details in the links to Wikipedia an in any advance algebra book.)

In particular in the integers if p is a prime then the set pZ={..., -3p, -2p, -p, 0, p, 2p, 3p, ...} is a prime ideal.

Also in the integers, if p !=0 and pZ is a prime ideal, then p is a prime.

Therefore, in the integers there is an almost 1 to 1 relation between prime elements and prime ideals. So

1) This is a "good" generalization

2) The number 0 is a nasty exception

So the question in the previous comment is "Why is it a good idea to make a nasty exception for 0? Would it be better to redefine the primes numbers to include 0?"

I personally would prefer a redefinition of the prime number to include 0, but it is not the standard definition :( .

tl;dr: Please don't downvote the previous comment unless you know what is a "prime ideal".

The workaround for this (while it lasts) is to only buy vehicles targeted at fleet purchasers.

You get the barebones version of a much smaller selection, sure, but the vehicles still tend to be serviceable by in-house/shadetree mechanics instead of the dealership.

This is a terrible analysis from someone who offers professional investment advice (the author).

Nobody would have held a 7.5% mortgage w/o refinancing. You can always ratchet down if rates go down.

Mortgage interest is (was?) largely deductible, greatly reducing the after-tax interest rate, especially in the market example cited (San Mateo).

Property taxes are deductible as well (less so before the recent tax changes).

You have to live somewhere and that's a quantifiable benefit (in rental equivalent terms). If you put all of your money in stocks, and none in a house, you're going to have to pay rent somewhere.

A portion of the capital gains on the sale of your primary residence is tax-free, further increasing your after-tax returns.

Housing market examples, like stocks, can always be cherry-picked for one argument or the other.

Home ownership is not always a great investment, but it's usually not lousy.
Never experienced this. Google changed Bluetooth Audio to be realtime scheduled, but I never experienced this before that. I can go into other floors of the building and my Song headset still works.

AMP has a mostly positive reputation in the world of digital publishers--and they definitely know what it is. I've heard from people at two different publishers that the decline in traffic due to the recent Facebook algorithm update has almost been made up by a dramatic increase in Google traffic to AMP pages. (see https://www.axios.com/google-traffic-explodes-doubling-down-...)

The main complaint I hear is that AMP pages are pain in the ass to produce, not anything about walled gardens or canonical URLs. Consider that most of the people making decisions are weighing AMP strategically against FB Instant Pages.
I'm part of the Certbot team and I can tell you that the ACMEv2 support is still being implemented by my colleagues now; even if it had been included in a release this week or next, you would have been cutting it pretty close! Many of our users don't have the most current release because distribution packagers don't ship it right away (or even for months or years, depending on circumstances).

Certbot's own autorenewals (which I originally implemented and which I hope are currently working for you -- I'm happy to try to find a way to get them to work in your deployment if they're not!) try by default to renew certificates 30 days before expiry in order to give people a lot of time to notice and intervene if something goes wrong. Consistent with that, I'd encourage all of our users not to rely on anything happening less than 30 days before expiry as part of their plan for keeping certificates current on their sites.

I'm mainly concerned with people outside the car. Also, breakthrough noise is completely different from tire noise, which is why it's called "breakthrough noise". Did you not notice that I said "roar"? Do tires "roar" when they aren't skidding? No. ICE's "roar".

I'm totally OK with you having different preferences from me. I've met other people who think like you do, and we've had fine conversations about our personal preferences. But you're pretty much ignoring what I have to say, replacing it with your favorite preferences.

That wasn't the motivation-- it was instead to make identities discoverable online. And-- with Facebook-- to make it easier for college students to get laid.

No, he wasn't a Nazi. But he rejected the idea of objective truth, and thought societies were established through violence and myth. If you try to make that into a political philosophy for today, you end up with something rather like fascism, and certainly not marxism or liberalism.
I'm thinking of some critical flaw in ACME, or CA outage, bad cert push, etc. I get your point, but I think there's a legit risk here.
Oh certainly. I was referring to initial purchases of reasonable quality headphones vs bluetooth headphones. It's not as big of a gap as it used to be.
As a gay man who is almost 30, I think making friends is relatively easy for gay people thanks to dating apps. Perhaps, you cannot same gender friends in Tinder (if I'm wrong, please correct me), but a lot of gay people are using dating apps not only to find relationships but also to find friends.

I also think social isolation around gay people makes friendship among gay people special. I don't know much about Western countries like U.S., but here in Tokyo, most of the gay are still in the closet. They have to pretend to be straight outside gay communities. It is really stressful. They cannot talk much about their lovers or their gay friends. A lot of gay people around me say drinking with straight people is just boring because of those reasons. That drives us to make gay friends.

It is quite anecdotal, but I didn't have single friends a year ago, and now I've got 4, 5 close gay friends since I started using a dating app. I am actually very satisfied with my current life.
Sympy is great (especially the ability to automatically codegen numerical expressions from symbolic ones), but I've found it to be orders of magnitude slower than Mathematica for some relatively simple problems. I also find the sympy documentation to be somewhat sparse and hard to navigate.
I have a similar issue with my head unit. It will stop whatever music I'm currently listening to and start pandora. It's obnoxious enough that I just don't have pandora installed on my phone anymore.

You don't have to buy new headphones, but you don't get to buy a new cellphone either.
I have mixed feelings about AMP.

One thing that always I feel on discussions about AMP is that is something that is going to happen, and is not, is happening right now, regular users are already having better and great experiences on mobile.

That is the good side that I see of the project, Google was capable of do that in about 2 years. Pushing development best practices seems that was not enough, companies stills doing awful job on the performance side of their websites.

AMP was like force companies to do other version of their websites with limitations that prevent doing stupid development and design decisions like js/css/html bloat, repeat components and more.

You like that beautiful readable and organized Medium post?, is a good experience right?, well, it happens that the editor has a lot of limitations like only let you choose 3 text hierarchies, 3 image sizes, one font family, no colors, etc. For me AMP is something like that but in the development side instead on the visual design side.

The terrifying part is that Google has created a parallel version of the web who fill their needs, a stripped down version[1] that feels like an authoritarian power blocks the freedom that the "native" web always has, also happens that this parallel version has some advantages and people are loving it.

I see AMP as a temporary patch of the web.

Google might have just lumped you into the idiot bin, there are people who WANT their searches to look like spam. Google will happily show people what it thinks they want based on how they've interacted with the service (or sometimes, how the people on that IP address/machine have interacted with the service).

I always have to start an incognito tab to find anything that isn't pure drivel on my mothers machine. Otherwise I get search results that look remarkably like the spam she forwards me.

Try a search from an incognito tab and compare.

Ask HN: Any open yield map datasets?
I'm looking to build out a collection of sample (agriculture) crop yield maps from crop harvesters to test with software I'm building.

It's not incredibly easy to come by much of it so I was wondering if anyone happened to be aware of any datasets out there or universities that might have data available?

Thanks!
Good points, but there is something else going on.

If you travel alot you start to see that every culture is heavy on carbs: Rice, pasta, potatoes, noodles, bread. They are ubiquitous.

Find a frenchmen that isn't eating bread from first meal to last...or an asian with rice / noodles. Or an Italian with pasta / bread, etc.

There is something else wrong here. I don't pretend to know what it is, but it seems like its almost a "food culture" problem. The most immediate things you notice are: (a) Americans portion size is double the rest of the world, and (b) Americans eat very very fast.
I was plagued by the Hum for years. At times it became astonishingly loud. But I was able (eventually) to figure it out.

Short version: I made many attempts to track it down. Used low frequency Microphones, filters, amplifiers, etc, as well as PC Spectrogram programs to try and and visualise and record it. Visited many nearby industries etc to try and find it. But none of my attempts did any good.

As I'm a Radio Engineer I spent ages experimenting with VLF Receivers, Spectrum Analysers, etc.

One thing I noticed however was that the Hum was much worse when I was living in a quiet rural area.

One night however, I noticed that I could affect the hum by doing the swallow maneuver that divers use to equalise ear pressure. I slowly came to understand that my Hum was an internally generated sound.

Apparently there are various possible mechanisms: The simplest is blood flow near the ear. But also the tiny hairs in the ear canal actually have tiny muscles which cause feed-back or "regeneration" to make our ears more sensitive, and the frequency response of each hair cell much sharper. However at times, this regeneration can slip over into actual Oscillation.

This ability of the ear to actually generate sounds is well documented. It can actually be loud enough for a Doctor or a partner to hear. It's called Objective tinnitus.

In my case, the Hum eventually disappeared and has never returned. I suspect that it coincided with a change in blood pressure medication, but I can't be sure.

Looking back, I would suggest that it may be worth trying to amplify the sounds via a set of high-quality earphones and appropriate filters, etc, using the headphones as microphones.
I can hear these sounds too. Earplugs definitely make it worse. I grew up in a small town right next to a huge military base and aircraft flyovers were a very frequent occurrence. To me the sound sort of reminds me of a really faint helicopter or really faint jet engine in the distance, just on the edge of hearing.
That's funny, because I usually use Apple Maps, and when I use Google Maps, I get irritated because I get the turn instructions much too soon and often turn into one cross street too early.

So maybe the problem is less that either one's timing is wrong per se, but that they are quite different, and drivers have difficulties adjusting their expectations.
Mine lasts about a week. I usually only use it for a few hours at a time, but it's never been a problem before. It charges way faster than it discharges.
It does require synchronization of the recordings, which might also be difficult.

Could you record with a multiple "microphone connected to a Raspberry Pi" setup, with the time synchronized using something like the NIST time signal[1] using an RTL-SDR, or a cellular signal, or GPS, or maybe using NTP?

Perhaps, but a lot of times, certain discussions take place over chat, and it's beneficial if someone who happens to join a little later in the conversation can simply read through the chat history to get up to speed rather than interrupting everyone to get some context to the conversation and proceed to ask questions about things that had already been discussed (rather than simply reading and getting the answers that way).

Open protocols can certainly do this.

Seems like a valid consideration. You should write a letter to the authors :)
I'd say there's a pretty big gulf between that and "ten points off the one hundred-point scale for being late for something."
You could do that as well with IRC.

I like IRC since the protocol is so simple you could almost type in a raw telnet session live.

That simplicity also means it's not to hard to add additional things to it. If you want.
Waze always has the latest accident and traffic reports. There are three main routes to my job. I always open it up in the morning and check travel times for each one (just press Routes button instead of Go). I have my preferred route, which is always fastest and shortest, but if Waze ever suggests one of the other two, I know I should listen. When I look into it, it’s usually some major accident or something affecting a lane of travel. The few times I ignored it I deeply regretted it. Makes the difference between a 60 minute commute vs a 90 min commute on a bad day.
