The researchers mention in other sources:

"Interestingly adipose fat, most likely from the ibex, made up about half of the stomach contents. The team says this amount was unexpected, but it makes sense given he was living in such a hostile climate."

"The high and cold environment is particularly challenging for the human physiology and requires optimal nutrient supply to avoid rapid starvation and energy loss," says Albert Zink, an author of the study. "The Iceman seemed to have been fully aware that fat represents an excellent energy source."
I mean, I've had vanity Laphroag that only tasted of wood fire. Doesn't make it not good. I certainly wouldn't pay for it but I'm not saying its bad whiskey.
Research recommending 2 most cost-effective charities to prevent climate change [pdf]
Ironically, it's a little unlikely that Yamazaki barrels are charred. American whiskey is aged in new oak, which is charred or toasted both to standardize quality and also to bring out caramel and vanilla notes from the wood. But single malt scotch is generally aged in used barrels and the barrels are selected in part for the characteristics of what was aged in them before, which is why the "best whiskey in the world" Yamazaki 18 Sherry Cask costs so much. Charring is what you do, in Scotland, to an exhausted cask; it's also something Scotch distillers work to mitigate in ex-bourbon casks.

Let's go through the people close to Trump who have been indicted or who have plead guilty.

Paul Manafort: Indicted for a number of financial crimes unrelated to the 2016 election. https://www.justice.gov/file/1007271/download and https://www.justice.gov/file/1038391/download

Richard Gates: As above.

George Papadopoulos: Plead guilty to lying to the FBI without an underlying crime. https://www.justice.gov/file/1007346/download

Michael Flynn: Plead guilty to lying to the FBI without an underlying crime. https://www.justice.gov/file/1015126/download

So far there is no indictment or guilty plea among Trump's associates related to the 2016 election.
I had a refurbished zenbook throughout college. Aside from the fact that the keyboard connector would never stay in, it was a great laptop for a fraction of the price of a macbook.
This was longitudinal study where people who chose to go to therapy were compared to those who didn't chose to go, not a randomized experiment with a control group.

So, you can think of nothing in that first meal apart from presentation that would justify higher price?

And what is "nourishing value"? Calories?
You would likely feel different you weren't already getting plenty of fat in your diet:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_poisoning#Observations

> I had now been several days without tasting any thing besides meat: I did not at all dislike this new regimen; but I felt as if it would only have agreed with me with hard exercise. I have heard that patients in England, when desired to confine themselves exclusively to an animal diet, even with the hope of life before their eyes, have hardly been able to endure it. Yet the Gaucho in the Pampas, for months together, touches nothing but beef. But they eat, I observe, a very large proportion of fat, which is of a less animalized nature; and they particularly dislike dry meat, such as that of the agouti. Dr. Richardson, also, has remarked, “that when people have fed for a long time solely upon lean animal food, the desire for fat becomes so insatiable, that they can consume a large quantity of unmixed and even oily fat without nausea:” this appears to me a curious physiological fact.
The current Python XARs rely on Python being on the system path. But it would be easy to build a custom Python XAR with the XAR builder library that includes the Python executable and makes sure to use the packaged executable.
You can do all of that with a relational database. Whether or not your specific relational database makes it easy, or efficient is a different question from "can it be modeled relationally".
I'm not certain that encasing them in glass makes the most sense. Will they have new preparedness drills so everyone knows how to operate this without harming themselves in the process?
Even if it is, it may not be widespread knowledge. E.g. WoFS, the first embodiement of many ideas found in ZFS and friends, is virtually unknown, despite being developed in the late 80s, and with documents available online.
Working a "whatever" job also isn't finding a passion, yet it's a perfectly serviceable way of funding your life as you pursue things outside of your employment hours. As long as it isn't destructively draining you, and isn't assaulting your psyche, it can just be plain work.

> They also have an incentive to err on the side of providing less care.

This is only true at the end of a person's life. Before then, ignoring problems does not make them go away, it in fact makes it more expensive for them.
Well, slight semantic nuances of English aside, we absolutely have taken pictures of black-hole-emitted radiation; see [0] for an example. Search for photos of X-ray emissions. It's true that most of the energy seen from the direction of a black hole will be leftover scraps from its messy eating habits, but Hawking radiation should be a thing (although we'll likely never observe it above the CMBR), and rotating black holes should also be a thing.

If you decide to go the fuzzball route, then perception without direct visualization isn't too hard, aside from the holographic principle, which helpfully justifies the idea that fuzzballs are a place where 3D movement becomes 2D movement. On a fuzzball, you might imagine strings moving around on the surface, but there's no meaningful way to move further into the fuzzball nor to detach from the surface and leave, aside from getting lots of energy and popping off as Hawking radiation/firewall. Incidentally, 2D movement is something that we have tons of intuition for already!

I'm like 90% sure they make Laphroaig by distilling ground up burnt swamp frogs. I'm comfortable saying it's bad.

(I'm off to Michigan this weekend and my plan is to spend a fixed % of the price of the beach house we rented on whiskey, so this stuff is very top-of-mind for me right now. Had this thread not occurred, I'm like 90% sure I'd have gotten talked into buying Kavelan, so it's already a major win.)
Both times: yes and no. They both are indeed considered personal data, but they don't always have to be disclosed (as disclosing might harm others)
We currently don't have a nice open source API for building node apps, but would welcome PRs that get us in this direction!

There are two ways to build a node app using the XAR builder tools.
1. Use the `make_xar` tool which will create a XAR from a directory and takes an optional script to run on execution.
2. Use the XAR builder library to make a XAR builder that is specialized for building node apps.
I don't know why this is getting down-voted because it is relevant to the article. People have had it with the caustic posts on and outright lies about privacy by Facebook so they're moving to Instagram. Facebook appears to mostly have left Instagram alone since acquiring it but now it is getting more involved since the trend appears to indicate that Instagram is becoming the profit center.

But for people who mistrust Facebook, that is more than reason to drop Instagram. The thinking is, "I've seen what Facebook has done to itself. It's only a matter of time before they do the same to Instagram. I might as well get out now and find some better alternative."
R(3,3) doesn't say a clique necessarily forms. It says a clique forms or an anti-clique forms (or both). If all six are friends, then there are (6 choose 3) cliques. If all six hate each other, there are (6 choose 3) anti-cliques. If one kid is hated by everyone, that in some sense decreases the odds of a clique but simultaneously increases the chances of an anti-clique, and R(3,3)=6 guarantees that in some sense these increases/decreases balance each other out.
This is a really important question.
Really? The linked definition is:

"Any apparently useless activity which, by allowing you to overcome intermediate difficulties, allows you to solve a larger problem."

That sounds like necessary mundane tasks to me. Definitely mostly hear it used that way.
Well, it's not mine but I'm sure it certainly was quite a challenge to build, props to the author for accomplishing that.

Care to explain why you believe the "authors assumptions of what constitute environmental consciousness and threat to mascuilinity" was wrong ? Because the way they defined it seemed ok to me from what I remember.

No matter the limits of the study, though, comparing an academic study, even one that's biased by the author's ideology and worldviews in general (like any and every scientific study every written, especially those about political issues) with a purely activist action is questionable. The very process behind them are different. Plastic straws ban was just impulsed by some viral videos of turtles with straws stuck in their noses. There's a logical chain of event which makes considering this as "virtue signaling" a fair analysis. It's questionnable to assume academics who linked environmental consciousness with masculinity were actually virtue signaling and looking for some recognition when it could just be that their worldview and past experiences "naturally" lead to such hypotheses and the way they built their study just proved their point due to how they were designed.

Secondly, the way you hierarchize what you consider real issues vs unimportant ones also betrays your own position and is by no means absolute, AND it's not a good argument I believe. 99%¨of what I see on HN is not relevant to actual problems as you define them, for starters. And more than 99% of research activity is disconnected from any of those issues, and making all research focus on such issues wouldn't even help anyway, or so I believe. The academic study you refer to does not by any means claim to be revolutionnary when it comes to solving environmental issues, but it is very plausible that a part of why so many people don't care much about the environment is tied to sociocultural factors.
You're right, single family houses are very nice for the builder. Simple, relatively cheap, build-sell-and-move-on.

Multi-family houses are more profitable for the owner. You pay some maintenance costs but you also collect a profit on recurring condo fees, services you provide, and deals you might make with other companies (like internet providers).
That's impressive, but I couldn't find the reason for it. Was it done just for the challenge, or can their be a use for this kind of server?
The FBI only stated that they believed Crowdstrike but they themselves never obtained or examined the server despite multiple attempts.
As a Scala dev, one issue I see with the language is that it doesn't keep you in check. Easy things are easy and there are lots of syntax sugar and little conveniences here and there that make the language great, but the advanced features are just as accesible to the developer. You need self-restraint when doing Scala, there is a real risk of losing perspective and getting distracted with fancy features and libraries.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einkorn_wheat

Wheat.

It seem the Iceman not only ate deer mean but also... wheat, so probably some kind of bread.

Also, for the context: the Iceman lived "between 3400 and 3100 BCE." It can be that he lived at the same time as Egypt already wrote about its first pharaohs (c. 3150 BCE)! And Egypt's key for success for millennia was in its... wheat production.

Moreover, the "Iceman" got frozen in ice by accident, but at that time the last ice age was also over for cca 5000 years.
There's an information imbalance. A lot of people have access to lots of stuff that can tell them how to live their life better. They have access to information about psychology, about how their brain works. They have access to information that in endless varieties of ways, can 'hack' their brain, change them.

1. This doesn't make people happy. Constantly trying to fix yourself is like running past the goal post as soon as you get there.

2. Life just sucks sometimes, and therapy doesn't always make it better. You can't force a therapist to actually have compassion and empathy for someone if they don't. This may be complicated. Therapists and stuff may have their own issues, like the fact that they have to deal with a world where everyone has access to almost the same information they do. How can they help? How can they deal with a dynamic where a mentally ill person may even understand this, and have compassion for it? That has to be confusing.

The world is crazy and there are no rules. We want to believe there are rules when there is chaos, but there aren't. Sometimes you just have to trust people. That can be really scary if you don't know them, and it can also be really scary if you've been educated into a career where you are constantly on the lookout for people that could be ... dangerous.

Also culture. There's a fuck ton of stigma going around for mentally ill people lately. Just because we were more aware of it a couple of years ago doesn't mean it improved collectively. We've taken a massive step backwards culturally when we blame every horrible thing that happens in the world on mentally ill people. That's all in the cultural background noise, it changes things, affects the ways people see things, affects their fears. We are not omnipotent beings that know everything.

Some information that people with fucked up intentions intend on spreading for whatever intent - you gotta fight it. If you don't, it's going to hurt you in the long run. That's something I've learned through lots of confusion.

Most decisions in life do not require a permit or discretionary review from one’s neighbors. The level of deference to community opinions and desires that we require of building projects is unique and probably excessive. Curtailing individual freedom to this extent should be done to protect people from real harm, not shadows.
One of the things I keep saying is that I made a mistake when I made a hobby (software development) into a career.

I used to love it, would go through hours on my own free time to code usually completely useless stuff, for fun. Only occasionally this would yield something useful. And that was fine.

Fast forward many years, and it's been a while since I've last written a single line of code at home. I don't even have Emacs installed in my home machine anymore.

I can still get excited when a task requires me to learn new stuff. I can still have fun some of the time. But that flame is no longer there.

I guess anything will become a chore once you do too much of it, specially if you are doing it not because you want to, but because you are required to.

That said, you could not pay me enough to do something like sales. So I guess the advice would be "find something that you don't absolutely hate" and you'll do ok. It's called work, not "fun", for a reason.
hm, so first the new mining operations run the entire fabrication line, so they have factories in Shenzhen or Scandinavia and create the mining hardware and start mining. if you have the whole production line you can pay for costs in cash or straight from the illicit source to people without ever passing through a reportable system

secondly, when you do buy mining hardware or buy hashrate (cloud mining), most manufacturers and service providers ONLY take bitcoin, so if the money was dirty it still never passed through a reportable system. when you pay for invoices with cryptocurrency there is no billing address or any other information about the buyer. if you funds came from a botnet, a hack or even drugs but stayed in the system, there is no necessity to link your identity to anyone. you can ship your hardware to any address, or straight to a data center, and even if you think that will reveal your identity even the mining proceeds can go to any random address recipient and this is all new money.

instead of trying to reveal the flaws, try imagining it as if you had five million dollars in bitcoin to launder and i2p/TOR and see how you could remain anonymous without messing up your OPSEC on either the blockchain or from your other activities.

He says:

"The biblical rules, which set twelve and a half as the age of female adulthood"

The Bible is very clear that a male or female become adults at age 20.

See Exodus 12, 38; Numbers 11,14; 1 Chronicles 31:17, Ezra 3:8 and there are probably some more scriptures that show it.

You can genuinely find something in the world of professional work that holds your interest -- a sense of being capable and engaged in the tools of your trade should be a point to look for when engaged in something you can find a career in. Now, if I really like computer science research but I really need to feed my family I'm probably going to consider working in engineering or administration because that is where my comfort in the toolset is going to pay me. That's not to say you can't pursue something you are genuinely passionate about in the field (the notion that all fields of profession exist in general terms and not in nuanced niches is the ignorance in this "Find your passion" statement) but if you're in any business because you want to put food on the table, you probably drift towards work that is within your comfort zone just enough that you don't hate it.

One of my professors laments the lack of interest in my university's "computer science" specialization over engineering or administration in the compsci degree, but how many people hedge their livelihood on becoming a researcher in experimental fields? It's a passion best chased when you have a baseline already.

The interesting element of the online streaming is the rise of people watching on their phones/tablets, where getting a traditional OTA signal isn't possible.
If that's even what happened. The email server was not secured or encrypted in any way. It was probably hacked by everyone and their dog.
They launched e2e encryption after acquisition. There is nothing which suggests it will be weakened. There is now e2e encryption in Messenger as well if you want to enable it.

Wrong. What Papadopoulos plead guilty lying to the FBI about was specifically collaborating with Russians known to and believed by him to be connected with the Russian government while he was a foreign policy adviser to the campaign, on matters related to the campaign. See the “Statement of Offense” filed with his plea:

> there are excellent Uber/Lyft drivers, there are others who are simply cosplaying taxi driver.

I completely disagree with this. 99% of Lyft drivers pass the very low bar of being able to drive somewhere without getting into an accident, which is all most people care about when they need a ride.
Still do. While just over 1 million watched the last BBC england game on iplayer (before it crashed), at least 20 million were watching on BBC One.

Everything else makes perfect sense to broadcast, but live -- especially zero-latency live -- over unicast http calls? Ridiculous. A shame the BBC's multicast trials never took off.
I feel like I see this a lot in general. People fret over the details, when ultimately what matters is just that it works. No, I don't care if we use a builder factory or a factory builder, I just care that it won't crash and shits legible.
Bufalo Trace runs a ton of experimental runs of their Whiskey where they change all manner of variables. You can pretty routinely find vertical or horizontal tastings of their stuff to see what factors matter most to you.

The one I've found that seems to have the most flavor changes for the least amount of 'bad outcomes' is smaller casks. But even that you can fairly easily pick out once you've started finding your favorite flavor profiles.

Other distillers do the opposite, Makers Mark for instance is famous for moving casks all over their rick houses to account for the differences in heat/pressure/etc to get a more consistent flavor.

Lots of micro distillers are using 'modern' processes to get different flavors out of their production.

Thats a long way of saying, I disagree with you about it being rare for companies to mess with their production processes. Its quite common and the stigma against it is going away, not being reinforced.
