The law is quite clear about an advertiser’s liability.

https://fairhousing.com/legal-research/hud-resources/adverti...

Section 804(c) of the Act prohibits the making, printing and publishing of advertisements which state a preference, limitation or discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin. The prohibition applies to publishers, such as newspapers and directories, as well as to persons and entities who place real estate advertisements. It also applies to advertisements where the underlying property may be exempt from the provisions of the Act, but where the advertisement itself violates the Act. See 42 U.S.C. 3603 (b).

Publishers and advertisers are responsible under the Act for making, printing, or publishing an advertisement that violates the Act on its face. Thus, they should not publish or cause to be published an advertisement that on its face expresses a preference, limitation or discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin. To the extent that either the Advertising Guidelines or the case law do not state that particular terms or phrases (or closely comparable terms) may violate the Act, a publisher is not liable under the Act for advertisements which, in the context of the usage in a particular advertisement, might indicate a preference, limitation or discrimination, but where such a preference is not readily apparent to an ordinary reader. Therefore, complaints will not be accepted against publishers concerning advertisements where the language might or might not be viewed as being used in a discriminatory context.

As far as roommates....

For example, Intake staff should not accept a complaint against a newspaper for running an advertisement which includes the phrase female roommate wanted because the advertisement does not indicate whether the requirements for the shared living exception have been met. Publishers can rely on the representations of the individual placing the ad that shared living arrangements apply to the property in question. Persons placing such advertisements, however, are responsible for satisfying the conditions for the exemption. Thus, an ad for a female roommate could result in liability for the person placing the ad if the housing being advertised is actually a separate dwelling unit without shared living spaces. See 24 CFR 109.20.

This is precisely why I, for one, have recently chosen to begin eating real meat after 10+ years of veganism. Who wants to be a lab rat in some food scientist's experiment? How many of the Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) substances will turn out to be anything but?

Nassim Nicholas Taleb writes in his books including _Antifragile_ how he doesn't eat any fruit that doesn't have an ancient Greek or Hebrew name, and doesn't drink any liquid that hasn't been in existence for 1,000+ years. Those which pass through this great filter have survived the test of time.

Humans have eaten bovines before history, cattle being domesticated around 8000 BCE but even earlier, about four million years ago Australopithecus, an ancient predecessor to genus Homo, ate meat. Their contemporaries, Hominin, did not and were outcompeted by the meat-eating Australopithecus (Scientific American: Early Meat-Eating Human Ancestors Thrived While Vegetarian Hominin Died Out, 2012).

Eating meat, and beef especially, is in our DNA. Soy hemoglobin "leghemoglobin" is not. I know which one I'll choose.
I definitely agree about the wild. But what about designing gut bacteria that target parasites in your poop? Amongst many other possibilities.

You can use oxygen, temperature, and light-sensitive gene promoters and toxin-antitoxin plasmids to make ON-OFF switches that would hobble bacterial replication in the wild.

It's a tough problem, and my guess is you'd want to use several of these switches together. There's no guarantee that stressed bacteria will 'run' your programs. And you're right that the gene could move horizontally, so you'd have to be very clever with your kill switches, and keep up with evolution.

Apart from the last resort of antibiotics, you can also selectively deplete particular bacteria from your poop using adhesion inhibitors such as mannosides and galactosides (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5654549/ - research from my lab).

I’m not an expert in the subject, but I don’t think we know. “Vegan” didn’t exist as a term until a few decades ago. Many Buddhist monks lived entirely vegan lifestyles, or so it is believed, but veganism doesn’t have a strict definition among vegans today. I probably should’ve just used the term “vegetarian”, but then I thought about the monks.
Yeah, that got me too. That's not just "hot enough to emit some light", that's "half again as hot as an incandescent light bulb", enough to emit a warmish white light.
It's carbon neutral when plants decay to carbon dioxide. But they need oxygen for this to happen - and when they don't (like when they're underwater), they decay to methane.

And methane is a greenhouse gas 20-80x more potent than carbon dioxide.

from the mid 70s to the mid 80s my parents had a "compact" calculator on their desk at home (for the bills etc) that plugged into power -- no batteries. It was about the size of a book, and sat on the desk next to the (wired, of course) telephone. What a modern household!
To end these discussions I will mention the following.

I contacted the Stripe Atlas team about this offer and as they say, if they read the website, it refers to the offer is only for women (but it is not the case), the offer is open to any person / gender that wants take advantage of it, they only put "For women" to continue promoting in which more founders are united to the emprendimiento of this decade.

For example, I just got the offer as a man, they did not charge me the $ 500 fee, so I understand that everything is correct.

Do not take everything as literal, one thing is what the web says and another is what they really offer, anyone can be wrong.

Wrote a blog post that got featured on HN. Someone from Facebook reached out and after a series of interviews I got in.
So in science, symmetry groups appear in physics in various forms. The ones more commonly found in physics are not exactly like the finite symmetry groups in the OP (I cant immediately think of a good example). Briefly, they are used to describe transformations of your physical system that leaves "something" (this can be abstract) unchanged.

So in physics, the best examples take the form of a continuous symmetry. A very simple example is the special orthogonal group SO(3) - the group that describes all length preserving rotations.

Another example in relativity are Lorentz and Poincaré groups. The Poincaré group effectively describes affine transformations, a transformation of space that preserves parallel lines and ratios of distances.

More abstract examples occur in field theory. The unitary group of one dimension U(1), the special unitary groups SU(2) and SU(3) can be used to "describe" electrodynamics, the weak and strong force respectively.

In these cases the solutions to the equations that describe how particles interact under these forces have these symmetries. These theories all have some conserved quantity that is unchanged by the action of these groups (charge, color etc).

Perhaps the one of the important thing to take away is; if the equations that describes your system has some symmetry, then there is a conserved quantity (something that doesnt change in time). This is Noether's Theorem.

Another take away is, if your equations have some symmetry, you can use it to describe all the possible solutions. Once you have one solution you can find others by applying the transformation. So perhaps these are a bit more abstract to think about initially, but there is something physical there.
That’s a great tool! Thank you.

Tone judgments aside, I think it's okay to be skeptical because spectroscopy is far from an exact science. Reminds me of the sensational "diamond planet"[0] a few years ago that was based on a dubious interpretation of the host star's spectrum.[1]

Considering that water isn't compressible, I'd think you could stack them even higher. Just use cylindrical containers with high strength in the radial direction.

Also, how about compressing plain old air in an array of individual columns? It might be reasonable to improve the efficiency with some sort of heat exchanger.
It had been a while since I followed the Prenda car. But I thought the issues were they owned the material and uploaded it. It wasn't so much that they owned it, but that they did the uploading. And then they lied to the court.
I love this nostalgia thing with the older calculators that's been going on for a while now. Getting more current, does anybody else like to stroll down the aisles checking out the current lineups of calculators at their local office supply stores? I have a small collection now and really enjoy checking out the latest Casio or TI models, and sometimes even the eye-catching store-brand scientifics in various unique color schemes, and so on.

Looking for things to do with my calculators was one factor in making the decision to become a licensed ham radio operator. I was kind of disappointed in the end that the exams didn't end up requiring much calculator-math, but anyway I'm kind of going back to school these days so to speak, getting a bit more involved with mathematics as an avocation and definitely enjoying my various calculators again after a long hiatus post-formal-education.

I'm not sure if a citation would make it any better. That line of logic makes me think of the opposite pitfall - that it leads to needless hair-shirted puritanism because anything enjoyable can't possibly be a good thing. "We can't use anesthesia in surgery because the lack of suffering is detrimental to character!" By definition it leads to needless suffering.

While knowledge and culture may seem boring or useless in itself (the fine details of long dead Roman politics) it is possible that there are hidden great applications to it in the right situation. Just for two surprising relevance examples Roman gladiatorial archetypes experiencing political correctness after annexing former foes, gladiatorial endorsements, and after the extended war had resulted in consolidation of farms in the hand of slave holding elites past legal limits the idea of land reform or enforcing the existing laws being called 'unRoman'.

Science alone has a history of finding bizarre peripheral finds that nobody would have expected. Take an incident that resulted in cattle bleeding to death after routine mild procedures - the source was eventually traced back to fungus affecting their feed. Useful in itself but good only for agronomy. Said fungus was used to produce the first bloodthinner on the market.

I hadn't ever noticed that, but it must be because of the trackpoint. The trackpoint is centered in between the home keys so you can reach it with your index fingers, mouse buttons below that for thumbs, and thus trackpad below buttons. The root issue is that the place you rest your hands on a qwerty keyboard is slightly left of center.

Edit: now I can't unsee that MBP has its trackpad right of home key center :)
As this article emphasizes, China steals an enormous amount of intellectual property from other countries, the vast majority of which is created and owned by US companies. That’s a “bad deal” by any measure.

I agree that the US has ample resources to “screw you back” but as with many things, it isn’t a question of capability it’s a question of political will. And without a doubt Trump has the will to flex on China, consequences be damned (or so it seems).
Charge your next client $100/hour then. What is the worst thing that could happen? They say no? Honestly if they say no you probably need to focus more on your pitch.

The big difference is the workplace variety. You can work at start ups, small businesses, mid-sized companies, or mega-corporate, or even government jobs. It isn't that they don't exist there but that it is easier to escape certain types of it.

Recently in a supermarket parking lot I saw a crow repeatedly jumping up and pecking at a car grill. Watching awhile I realized that he was using car grills as a food source for dead, dehydrated bugs.

The crow went from car to car, searching for bugs. Finding one, he would jump using both front legs, grab the bug with his beak and pull it off the grill, jump back to the ground and eat. Periodically he would take a break to drink cold water from the air conditioner drippings that cars leave when parked.

Crows and other birds have probably been using vehicles as bug food scoops for decades. But I'd never heard of it or seen it before.

Easy: recruiter asked me if I wanted to work remote. I said writing go and working remote and getting paid bay area comp sounds good.

But of course becoming the person that recruiter reached out to involved several years of study, betting on a brand new language, taking a risk on a startup with no money and a few other things.
That's been studied. The phrase "the strength of the weak tie" is one I have heard in relation to this phenomenon. People you don't know that well tend to be better leads than your closest friends.
> Make a zero-carbohydrate meat substitute, and I'm interested. Otherwise, no.

This is a good point, one reason many people (including me) have been eating more meat lately is to reduce their carbohydrate consumption after research has found many of the negative effects of a high-carbohydrate diet.

The Impossible Burger's complete ingredient list, from their website:

Water, Textured Wheat Protein, Coconut Oil, Potato Protein, Natural Flavors, 2% or less of: Leghemoglobin (Soy), Yeast Extract, Salt, Konjac Gum, Xanthan Gum, Soy Protein Isolate, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Thiamin (Vitamin B1), Zinc, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Riboflavin (Vitamin B2), Vitamin B12
Contains: Soy, Wheat

The very first ingredient besides water is "wheat", a grain known for numerous side effects, one of the only foods with its own disease (celic disease, gluten sensitivity), high levels of anti-nutrients (phytic acid, inhibiting mineral absorption). Granted, it is the "protein" part of wheat, but from the nutritional facts on the Impossible Burger's zendesk support site we can see it has 5 grams total carbohydrate, total sugars <1g, including added sugars <1 g.

Five grams may not sound like much, but it all adds up. The general recommendation for inducing ketosis if you're into that is less than 20 grams (ignoring the recent "Dietary carbohydrate intake and mortality: a prospective cohort study" study which scandalously considered 200 grams "low carb"). A hamburger bun has about 23 grams, so eating one of these burger patties in a hamburger with a bun and/or other condiments will easily kick one out of the low-carbohydrate diet classification, if that's one's goal.

For comparison, on a personal note, today I've eaten zero carbs at least by my measurements (supposedly real meat has "some" carbs, but I haven't found any measurable quantity anywhere, data sources commonly list it as 0g - but would be interested in more precise data if anyone has it). Not an untypical day for me. 0% carbs, 60% fat, 40% protein (this high protein:fat ratio is unusual for me, due to the lean meat I unfortunately was stuck with this time, but I usually strive to eat much higher fat content. Always lowering the carbohydrates.) As primarily a meat-eater, or at least an eater of animal products, it is much easier to strive for the low-carbohydrate way of eating.
>Ideas are not worth much. Only execution matters.

I'd argue both matter. It's just as easy to execute really well on a half-baked idea and get nowhere.

In general I think the clustering of success comes from recognition of successful bits during/after repeated practice or iterative production. Once you recognize that you are onto something you can pursue that until you either become bored with it or the market does.

I have had two successes that kicked off hot-streaks and they each came after several years of thrashing around, learning the space and material with which to work. I am in the middle (hopefully) of a new thrashing phase, lots of core competency being built up, (waxonwaxoff) some minor successes, and a whole lot of dissatisfaction.
Friend of mine moved on to the company I'm at now (he has since left) and when they were looking for a senior developer he gave them my contact info. I'm in the market right now and the most likely opportunity thus far is through another buddy of mine.

I've never gone through the front door at any company, for that matter, in the 25 years I've been working. The first job I ever got was because the teacher of a college class I was taking owned a small ISP and needed a sysadmin, and he liked how I was doing in his class. Everything since then has been through someone I know personally.

I think it may have to do more with one idea triggering another. For instance, Einsteins papers were all pretty much the "logical" conclusion of a single idea - mearly separated by publication date.

In my own life, I can witness similar events in collegues and myself. It may also be that others take a "hot streak" train of thought, style, premise, and once it becomes common place, that hot streak or cluster ceases to be relevant.
