You actually want Amazon to march into your country and eat up your local e-commerce market? That is incredibly short sighted. If you could take a step back and realize how important the software revolution is in the modern economy, you'd realize the importance of not having all the profits from the largest software markets eaten up by Silicon Valley companies making obscene profits.
Yes, they are. Do you have any familiarity with studies conducted under a human study IRB permission? Please cite one that would permit sufficient sharing with the public of the detailed information needed to replicate the study. Even just sharing one personal detail, such as gender, or age, is almost always completely forbidden.

Also, please don't be so credulous. This rule has been promulgated, invented, and proagandized by people who are trying to hamstring the EPA from using scientific studies to regulate industry. It's not new, it's just newly empowered.

You appear to be falling for the plausible cover story, which is disinformation. People are really bad at being able to discern the intent behind "plausibly good" organizations and movements.
Does it really? I can get alcohol at two or three, and sometimes more, work events in any given week. Some teams have beer fridges. The sky doesn't fall.

(to be clear, I fully agree with GP)
> If you trust Github to hold your repo, and to implement the mechanics of modifying your repo, but you don't trust them to implement a system of governance over that, then I think you're odd.

It's a complete non-sequitur. It's like saying "if you trust water company with delivering your drinking water, you should allow them to raise your children". Keeping bits in place (protected by crypto hashes so any shenanigans would be noticed by people holding copies of the repo very quickly) is not the same as letting them govern the projects. Technical and social functions are completely different. Moreover, the issue of trust and control are completely different - there are a number of people who I trust, but I don't let them run my life for me.
Amazon should (and still can while there's still time before some major negative social media event) split their website, reviews, search and fulfillment inventory to make it clear what you are getting/who you are buying from.

amazon.com -> the original trusted amazon, fulfilled by amazon with strict inventory management

marketplace.amazon.com -> wild west'e-bay style', 'get what you get and don't get upset' amazon

[Addition based on comment] Or maybe amazon-marketplace.com to further differentiate it. It'd be similar to how Netflix split into netflix.com and dvd.com (although I think they should have branded it netflix-dvd.com for branding purposes).
Except Netflix has a couple hundred movies available where we have about 10,000.
Very noticeable when switching to radio, which was at least 30 seconds ahead of the broadcast signal, let alone streaming.
The OP asked about moving to the countryside in general. Which you can do with reduced (though not minimized) costs without moving to rural Wyoming. I actually agree that, while moving to a mountaintop somewhere may still be a reasonable option for some people, you can mitigate risk considerably by moving to the outskirts of a general metro area that also has local options.
They're trying to do that in India right now.

I don't believe in consequentialism. Intent is more important imo. Not to say the consequence isn't important it is just I don't think it should be the only thing taken into account.
It's not such a clear cut decision. You can only buy once, while the miner can produce for many years, especially now when the ASIC tech reached the state-of-the-art so progress is slower.
Yes we do, and it doesn't matter. Data isn't relevant to the reproduction discussion. The reproducibility crisis is a crisis of methodology, not falsified or misinterpreted data. If I p-hack a result, then no amount of transparency is going to demonstrate that that's what I've done. The only standard of evidence for reproducibility is reproduction, and they are only using the "reproducibility crisis" as a diversionary tactic to increase the cost of doing science to an unacceptable level, at the same time as pulling EPA funding of science.
New York rapper is the latest to be charged for ‘card cracking’ scheme
Our store did that a few years ago, too. Skip the Dishes is widely available in our town now, and we're surrounded by restaurants, but I haven't asked them if they'll deliver DVDs yet.
I know not going into specifics is making this sound a bit stupid but again "high end" is not a marketing term in this case there is a minimal set of features that would enable a F500 company to switch there is litterly close to a 100 low end offerings that are useless for the f500 use case and no matter how cute they are they not going to make a dent. The cool thing this is targeted at super technical people who absolutely hate the status quo and truly would love an alternative, but that alternative has to support their use case.
It seems to me that they are working to solve this in creative ways. For example, on a recent Amazon search, I noticed the results page included embedded recommendations from the Wirecutter, which is review site owned by the New York Times.
Rod Rosenstein said he briefed the president that this indictment was coming today. The president chose today to attack, from Buckinghamshire, Mueller and the probe as a rigged witch hunt yet again. The White House statement amounts to "it proves we did nothing, Americans weren't involved" but no statement pushing back on Russia at all. No condemnation at all.

But this is from a president who has said about Putin:

"He said he didn't meddle. He said he didn't meddle. I asked him again. You can only ask so many times"

"Every time he sees me, he says, 'I didn't do that"

"And I believe, I really believe, that when he tells me that, he means it."

"I think he is very insulted by it."

The timing of this indictment is obvious to probably most people, but in particular to people who have studied or are professionals in international relations - it is to give the president the option to cancel the meeting in Helsinki. To give him the option to recalibrate and criticize Putin.

But instead what we've got so far is more "witch hunt" paranoid conspiratorial nonsense which is identical to the single public contribution of significance Trump produced before becoming president: five years of the racist lie of birtherism, followed by an admission otherwise while simultaneously lying again by blaming Clinton for having started the conspiracy. This is a man who will make up anything, do anything, lie about anything, and blame anyone for all of it without any reluctance whatsoever.

And it will continue that way.
If it doesn't arrive, they'll also refund you...

IMO, the problem with returns is the cost of sending it back, it terms of time wasted by me.

Back in the good old days some supermarkets would hand you a gift if you pointed out products that were expired, etc..

Amazon could just pay a 50% reward whenever counterfeit products are returned. The liability could easily be passed to the responsible seller.
Will browsers like Chrome remove WebSQL?
Does anyone have any insight into when or whether the browsers that currently ship with WebSQL support will remove it? Based on everything I can see, for example https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/d/msg/chromium-html5/MrriX3jC7Tg/LFH9648GIYEJ , I think Chrome will continue shipping it as an unsupported feature.

Is there reason to believe otherwise?
I'm not sure about the US situation but you can't be sure even with books: The scientific publisher Springer switched to a print on demand model. This is generally fine but Amazon apparently prints those books themselves after ordering (it says so on the last page) and both printing and binding are of abysmal quality, much worse than what you get elsewhere for the same price.
Yeah I don't know what you mean by warrior class.
I don't have a good solution, but I come from a time when, if a machine was compromised, you changed every one's security tokens and re-imaged the affected machines.

Have you read "On trusting trust?"
Pushing. Not forcing.

I mean, I'm pretty sure that most jobs that come with expense accounts also happen to come with a decent amount of, what do you call it, income. I sort of doubt that this sort of policy is headed to the per diem world.
It's unclear if instagram would even be nearly what it is today without facebook, my guess is that both snapchat and twitter would've filled all the holes facebook was able to fill with instagram.

Most internet users wont understand the difference if you just differ the urls. A very large chunk dont use/understand the url bar, and just use google search to access websites.
The problem is if there's a survival benefit to becoming rigidly obedient, insulating this information would be valuable. Think about pyramid schemes.
There has been a lot of work on that. Look up Typed Assembly Language, Security in front of that, and Dependently-Typed Assembly Language. Here's one that was integrated with a safe, C variant.

That sounds like an interesting read. I couldn't find anything in my brief google search. Do you have a lead I can follow? Thanks

This is kind of insane, even by virtue-signalling standards.

What business is it of the company what kind of food I eat? Alcohol restrictions make enough sense, but beyond that how is it at all reasonable to place these kinds of restrictions on their employees, especially when traveling for business? Some cities simply don't cater to the vegan market on a large scale. Sometimes you don't have as much of a choice what restaurant you're going to.

How will they even know what you ate? Receipts from restaurants often don't have that much detail. Are their Accounts Payable people going to scrutinize every receipt and google it up to determine if it's vegan compliant?

All I know is that if I'm looking for coworking space, it ain't gonna be from these guys.

You can also get a debit-based target RED card (no credit app required) and get the same 5% discount and other benefits as the credit-based version.

Note: At the time it was required to bring a voided cheque to complete the process.
To be consistent, you'd have to leverage your arguments against other fields with replication crises, which include neuroscience and oncology. It's really true of the biomedical sciences in general.

Psychology has a history of being sort of self-analytical (which makes sense if you're a field studying human behavior). Meta-analysis, for example, was largely incubated in psychology before it started expanding into other disciplines.

The criticism I'm aware of is really being leveled at the idea that this is somehow unique to psychology. It's like killing the messenger, or someone who is trying to fix the problem.
Well, they don't need to weaponize it in order for it to have been propagated en masse. Atmospheric lead in the 60s and 70s could have had a similar effect on the generation that shall not be named.
Consider the following scenario. A chemical X is spilled in river. A sequence of very small towns with similar populations dot the river both up-stream down-stream. This is a dream setting for good science -- a true natural experiment with lots of genetic and environmental similarity between the groups in each small town, but radically different levels of exposure to X. Fast forward 10 years and researchers find that concentrations of X above some threshold N drastically increase the prevalence of birth defects. However, due to the size of the populations, researchers may not be able to publish their data and analysis publicly without de facto publishing almost complete de-anonymizable data.

The scenario is not so hypothetical. The circumstances and particulars change, but this situation describes a lot of medical and environmental research.

Should the EPA take the researcher's word? Maybe not. But there's a lot of workable middle ground in-between "blind trust" and "anyone with access to a library computer and a stats textbook can figure out participant 494 -- who math tells us can only possibly be Johnny D. of Smallsville, VA -- has testicular cancer".

And the situation is even more difficult than this because de-anonymization is an active area of research with some surprisingly powerful results published in recent years; i.e., it is highly non-trivial to determine if a dataset is de-anonymizable. And the answer always depends on what data about a person's identity is publicly available, which especially in the age of annual massive data leaks change from year to year. So even if researchers don't think it's possible to de-anonymize study participants using today's mathematical tools and today's public datasets, they'll often choose to keep the dataset private just in case.
Your first snippet has quadratic performance. The second is closer to the idea.

Pattern-matching would be even more obvious is a piece of Haskell:

pair :: [x] -> Maybe (x, x)
pair p:q:rest = if q = p + 2 then Just (p, q) else Nothing
pair _ = Nothing

findTwins primes = [x | x <- map pair primes]

I suppose that Eigson's power lies in matching of more complex structures, as they mention non-linear matching, matching with multiple results, matching with lexical scoping.
Neither of the above posters, but I've purchased sheets I was pleased with (although expensive) following Wirecutters guide: https://thewirecutter.com/guides/buying-sheets/
There's more than wood in these casks. Aging in a sherry butt extracts sherry flavors, which are unmistakeable --- you don't need to be a whiskey nerd to notice them any more than you need to be a beer nerd to notice the difference between an APA and a porter. And sherry butts get used in cycles for multiple batches of scotch.
Google search results are absolutely littered with fake review sites that have never actually have tested the products they claim, usually just reiterating the Amazon product pages (which is only obvious once you know that this is a thing). It's extremely hard to find a real review in a product category you are not an expert in to the point where I have just given up.
Your Home Depot is staffed radically different than mine.

It doesn't matter when I go there - mid-day, mid-week; or prime time, weekend. There's virtually no employees.

I usually end up going to the Customer Service desk and waiting 10 minutes while they summon someone on the radio/phone thingy.

Once the only person in the entire store was the lady at the self check-out aisles. And she couldn't help me because she wasn't allowed to leave her station because she was the only person in the store.

I think his point was that such a heavy handed policy that runs contrary to the views of most of the world's population is problematic. Since there will be situations where employees have little or no choice but to eat company sponsored meals, I for one don't see that to be "illogical".
I buy from them when Amazon pulls their "reserved for Prime" BS.
I could see that. But I can’t tell from briefly perusing the docs, does Typescript give you transpile time checking of objects that it will allow you to put in Mongo?

Using a dynamically type language with a schemaless database isn’t something I would want to do for a large project.
I'm neither of the previous posters, but I'm quite happy with my recent purchase of Brooklinen sheets. I was referred by a roommate who also is a happy customer. I got my mom some pillows from there for Mother's Day as well. I'll have to check back in to see what her verdict on them is.

Non vegetarians everywhere demonstrably don't have the ability or "mental faculties" to see that eating meat is wrong, any more than lions and tigers and bears do.

It's like someone saying everyone has the ability to accept God or Jesus. No, we don't. And it's a touchy subject, because zealots tend to next infer that someone isn't fully human if they don't share fundamental beliefs or axioms.

It's kind of similar to the syntax of uri query strings and the php syntax for appending to arrays, in that an extra pair of square brackets indicates appending:

In php:

$a[] = 1;
$a[] = 2;
# $a == array(1, 2)

In URIs:

http://example.org/?a[]=1&b[]=2

Compare to TOML

[[a]]
item = 1

[[a]]
item = 2

I haven't been watching the football, but I have been streaming another live event for the past two weeks: Wimbledon. My advantage comes from two things: I'm blind, and the BBC's CDNs have audio-only variants for every HLS stream. So I've been able to cut out the huge amount of bandwidth that would otherwise be consumed by streaming HD video, run the audio-only variants through FFmpeg and seek right to the end until the stream buffers. I'm usually ahead of the official Wimbledon live scoreboard, and the same coverage on cable TV, by a few seconds.

> fraud would be available safer, sure, but likely at a much higher price (competition lowers prices, after all).

Fraud does lower prices, but is not competition in the classic sense.. fraud is someone using someone else's brand or name in an attempt to mislead while selling you a different item. This is not competition, where various items are sold with their own brands / name, such that consumers can distinguish and choose the best item to buy.
This is a tool that I personally wanted for a long time. I'm considering turning this into an actual service, please let me know if this is something you would use if it actually had things like a UI.
I don't know. If they're not going to expense your meals because you're away on official business and chose wrong then I'm not sure I'd be down with that. As for on premise and coordinated business events, sure, I'm down with that. Business trips where you're someplace new well away from home "if you want us to pay for a meal while we send you to this place then no meat" is.. a little too close to too personal. That seems mean and self-righteous. I don't think I wouldn't be interested in weWork even were I a vegetarian.

We can all try or not. Screw coercion, especially in excess.
I believe WeWork opened a great discussion and I personally applaud them for taking a stand. I also applauded Starbucks with straws like most others here.

Also, I find that it's pretty easy to actually save money on vegan food. Maybe it takes a little planning, but it's not that difficult to walk away with more money eating vegan while feeling better.
those are different things now. there is a joke that a car model will always get bigger. and a different model will show up to re-fill the market that wanted the small car.
either from amazon or from the brand's store
Ended up getting it from a place that liquidates casino furniture.

In addition to used stuff, you can get some new things because the casinos buy so much extra and hold it in a warehouse for when it's needed.

When the casinos redecorate or rebrand, the old furnishings, etc... go to the liquidator. They don't sell old sheets or mattresses, because that's illegal.

I also landed a (used) desk from some suite at Caesars Palace that looks like it's straight out of a 1960's Elizabeth Taylor movie, with lions on it and everything. I feel like a king at my computer. Also, a bunch of those folding wooden luggage racks for a buck a piece. Very useful.
> Looks like I hit a nerve. Set aside all the BS and answer the question. On what moral grounds does Socialism justify confiscating property and sacrificing lives? We can certainly disagree about what is or is not Capitalism but this is what Socialism does and you know it. BTW, this is my original point; the Capitalism -vs- Socialism debate cannot be answered in politics or economics, your efforts notwithstanding. It is an ethical question that you are evading and ultimately will lose.

This is weak ass "u mad" stuff because you can't respond to anything I've said. Rapidly alternating between referencing history and refusing to respond to points in return that also reference history makes your argument look weak and makes you sound like an ass.

> I selected this out of all of what you wrote because it perfectly illustrates the (poor) level of your thinking. This claim is a clear self-contradiction. The opposite of expropriation is a voluntary trade or donation. To say that property or lives can be expropriated without violence is complete non-sense.

lol most people would not consider taxation or squatting or repossessing capital assets "violence". Ask I dunno, anyone if they'd think that

> The fact that socialism disarms the victims and controls the legal system so as to threaten violence if the expropriation is opposed is a massive evasion of the facts. Moreover, the rest of your thoughts on this are a mish-mash of equivocations, false analogies, contradictions, irrelevancies, misrepresentation and other errors.

This is not what socialism is. Please stop referencing history if you flatly refuse to engage with any of my references to history, and especially if you don't even understand what you're talking about. lol the "this is flim flam fiddle faddle" remark at the end is convincing to nobody if you don't actually engage w/ the arguments in a concrete way.
My wife and I are obsessed with nice sheets. I will give you two recommendations:

* Winter - flannel from Land's End. Super thick, warm, and comfortable. They feel like felt. $100-$150.

* Summer - linen (flax) from Linoto. These sheets are possibly the second thing I would grab in a housefire, after the baby. It takes a little getting used to sleeping on linen but they somehow are always perfectly warm or perfectly cool no matter what the temperature. $400, which sounds crazy for bedsheets but they are worth every single penny. We bought a second set from West Elm for half that but it was a mistake; the difference in thickness and quality is dramatic.
Yeah, that is a good point.
> segmented the market for no reason

This probably allows them to maximize profits, e.g. most French people probably won't go look at Amazon Spain to see if the graphics card they want is cheaper there...

You are correct in that Amazon EU has common stock despite the products having different prices on the different regional sites.
