One benefit of region locks is its crude ability to charge people based on their level of wealth, allowing more people to share in the experience. I've been to national parks in some countries that charge more if you have a passport from a richer country than if you have a passport from a poorer country, which I think is a noble effort to be a little more egalitarian with the distribution of resources. Obviously, not everyone from a poor country is poor and vice versa, but in the absence of a better method it sort of works.

However, I'm not sold on region locks for media that has zero marginal cost to reproduce, nor am I sold on selling someone something and then revoking access to it based on their locale.
In the case of alcohol the spinning is mostly due to differences in the density of the liquid inside the cilia of your inner ear cells when alcohol gets in and out of them, specially in the second case (some hours after drinking). It's really an alcohol-specific effect. Some other toxins might induce vertigo through other mechanisms though.

I always find its hard to start when you are stuck only looking for the best solution - just get everything on the screen and start, don't worry about the end product till you know all of what you have to deal with.

Overload your test pages with sample data (max pictures, lots of "results", full detail forms, etc.).

Now that you really have your problem defined. Time for fun! - refine HTML and CSS, keep it simple, If you are doing responsive stuff start with the smallest display mode possible. Shift-control-m in Firefox gives you a small screen simulation to start but also test on an actual phone/tablet browser to see how it works in the real world.

As you hit snags, check out what other sites do to handle such situations, note what you think works and what you could do better then implement your spin on such things.

Don't be afraid to switch approaches, make an archive/backup and re-factor as needed. The more experience you get doing it the better.
"being unable to perform one's occupation"

http://dictionary.law.com/Default.aspx?selected=1969

To my understanding then slander can be saying that someone is unable to perform their occupation. Now can you say that a president is unable to perform his occupation in the west because he is inept?
Can you do it in Turkey where they threw a man in prison because he posted a picture depicting Recep Tayyip Erdoğan as the Lord of the Rings character Gollum.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/jun/23/rifat-cetin-er...

I would then say according to that definition that we are freer to use slander in the west.

Due to noise and aliasing. If multiple features (edges, materials etc) cover a single pixel, you usually get aliasing. If you do random sampling (of reflections, lights, whatever) you get noise.

For anti-aliasing you'll usually want at least on the order of 10 rays per pixel for a nice result. If you do random sampling, you quickly need 100 to 1000 rays per pixel to get an acceptable noise level.

> they don’t don’t produce or supply just pure middlemen

They produce liquidity and price discovery, which are extremely important. Most energy companies don't know what the "efficient" (market clearing) price for power is and also want to mitigate the risks they inherently face by supplying these markets. Speculators allow natural longs like energy companies to hedge risk (reduce their risk) so that they can focus on the things they're good at: building, maintaining and operating power generation and distribution. If you're not an expert trader, which most utility CEOs are not, how can you invest in projects for the next 5, 10 or 50 years without markets that allow you to lay off some of the price risk of the good you're producing (power). This dynamic is what is facilitated by so called middlemen. They are absolutely essential, even if there are spectacular failures like this from time to time.

> The doctor referred Mr. Fender to a geneticist, but it turned out he did not see patients under 50 who were not symptomatic and had no family history of the disease.

> Mr. Fender then tracked down Jill Goldman, a genetic counselor specializing in dementia at the Taub Institute at Columbia University Medical Center, who described a multistep process of counseling and confirmatory testing that’s been the standard of care for 25 years. She typically serves people at high risk of inheriting a disease, and insurance usually covers both the consultations and the tests. But it was unlikely to cover the costs in the absence of family history. “It was like a chicken-and-egg thing,” Mr. Fender observes. “I needed a medical test to prove to them that it was real, but I couldn’t get a medical test until I could prove to them that it was real.”

There are problems here, but they're not with 23andMe or Ancestry.com, I don't think.
And then there was Applesoft's assembly language extension mechanism: "&".

Enhancing Applesoft using ampersand routines:
https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.3758/BF03203836.pdf

>Applesoft BASIC's ampersand (&) jump feature gives
the programmer an easy and fast way to connect machine
language routines to BASIC. When the Applesoft interpreter
encounters an "&," it does an immediate and unconditional
jump to location $3F5 (decimal 1013). This
feature, originally described as being "intended for the
computer's internal use only" and "not a proper
APPLESOFT command" (Apple Computer, 1978,
p. 123), has become the favorite procedure for executing
machine language routines from a running Applesoft

Well Airpods work perfectly well with my Galaxy S8. You don't need Apple phones to use them.

SpaceX providing launch services significantly cheaper than their competitors has probably benefited you personally far more than those initial subsidies to SpaceX. In fact, the recurring subsidies to their competitor, ULA, are substantially higher.
That's true. For me, the advantages of a stable Apple ecosystem outweigh the issue with the missing headphone jack. The fact that I can still use and upgrade my iPhone 6s is validation. With Android, I always fear that I don't get updates anymore after just two years. And I never liked Google's app store. There too many malicious apps in the store.

I probably use the new iPhone at least as long as I used the old one. The update cycles are getting longer as these phones get more powerful.
This is supposed to be a bland analysis. Please, try to be more objective.

These roles are well-defined in modern literature, and it logically follows that a market must exist, to buy and sell stories and IPs. This allows a video production company to license plots and characters, combine them (insert hero A into slot Tech), and sell edited videos of the production.
BCG has its own issues, though. Immunity wanes after awhile, the protection is incomplete and it seems to be more effective at preventing extrapulmonary disease than pulmonary.

This by no means says it's useless. It has probably greatly diminished pediatric tuberculous meningitis in at-risk counties, which can be devastating (one of my nightmare cases was a two-year-old who lost part of his occipital lobe to contaminated dairy). In low-prevalence countries, however, where pulmonary TB is the primary concern, its utility is questionable.

Bluetooth still works fine in my car, though. So I'll keep using it there.

Of course a decrease in condom use would most likely yield an increase in STD rates in any community. I'm having trouble discerning which source supports this:

>are prevalent in certain communities at higher rates.

You then seem to switch your perspective in the comment I'm replying to:

> total number of infected persons is probably not as meaningful a metric in terms of transmission risk

Which I would agree with, but you're not even addressing it. And of course the obvious needs to be said, the total number of people effected is needed to to ascertain which STD's "are prevalent in certain communities at higher rates." I'm still trying to figure out which STD's (besides HIV in the Western hemisphere), you're talking about.

Also if you're going to source stuff could you be bothered to not link to opinion pieces that are just a collection of cherry-picked quotes? There was no data or real scientific hypothesis involved. It was an opinion piece from an author who has quite the record on fighting LGBT+ rights. In fact there are two authors who clearly have a religious context to their arguments, a context that is detrimental to any rational conversation about this subject. It's well understood that such attitudes affect care and treatment, and the willingness to seek out care and treatment for young LGBT+ people. At best it's just non-sense, at worst such authors are actively helping the problem stay around.
I'm lost. So what? Everybody sells order flow. That's what an internalizer does. Robinhood takes retail stock-picking trade orders and executes them for free. For free. Schwab charges like $5 a trade. Where's the customer downside?

For my B2B projects I've done, the profit was written into the contract (and was usually around 3%), there was no way to make a larger profit margin, it was agreed upon beforehand and was a done deal.

Sichuan food, Yunnan food, Jiangnan, Northern, Xinjiang, Manchurian. Chinese food is amazing all by itself.

TB is very curable in most cases. The problem is it takes a long time, the regimens can be difficult, and active cases become resistant if they're not monitored (why we use directly observed therapy), and latent cases with the typical treatment take just about as long.

What we really need for TB are shorter high-efficiency regimens. These would be done quicker, leave less opportunity for drug resistance, and make progress on today's latent cases which are tomorrow's active cases. The newer 3HP regimen reduces latent treatment to 3 months instead of six to nine, but we really need to get it down to weeks or less.
On Jan 15, 2015, the Swiss Franc was de-pegged, and several large brokers went more or less bust. Some of the biggest banks got stung badly.

The damage happened largely because in-the-red smaller traders couldn’t meet their margin calls, so the bigger parties took the hit. I see no reason that an event just 10x as bad couldn’t have bankrupted the big players.

> If so, does Safari not have limits applied that cause it to be killed for running into OOM?

TurboWeb.org is an outsourcing company for wordpress speed optimization company
www.turboweb.org is the first outsourcing company for speed optimization focused on providing ADVANCED, not medium, speed optimizations. All other companies provide medium optimizations and most do it at american prices. If you own a SEO or Web Design company from USA or Western Europe, you might consider outsourcing this task to us.

A medium speed optimization takes under 1 day to perform and is about 70% as effective as an advanced one, while an advanced one takes 2-4 days to perform and require much more advanced technical knowledge. Websites making more than 1000$ per month would have huge benefits on the long run by opting for an advanced optimization due to conversion rates, traffic, bounce rate, SEO, etc. improvements. We offer this service at 250$, while it is normally sold for 1500-2500$ in USA by SEO companies to their clients. Our margins are very small, we intend to focus on volume. I know, we're not going to be a billion dollar company any time soon giving how small this field is, we're more of a small business than a startup, but we are providing real value to those that need it. We're from eastern europe so wages are very low here, taxes almost non-existent, so we are able to provide this service at incredibly low prices.

It would be great if we could get some feedback regarding our idea, our website, etc. especially from those of you who have had something to do with the web/e-commerce field :)
It's a stochastic process and it needs many samples per bounce. Basically, unless the surfaces are perfect mirrors, each angle of reflection is a probability function. Look for Monte Carlo methods for more information.
Yeah, not so great news for Facebook the company I'm afraid.

Being a social media user is age-independent, whereas one's teens is something they grow out of.

So, not only existing teens grow out of being teens (and eventually Snapchat users), but new teens won't necessarily grow into it to replace them.

Unlike older people, who value utility and what they already know more, new teens are just entering the social media field (and thus are more open to whatever might come next), and they are all about what's cool (so when a service loses it's cool it abandoned MySpace-like fast).

I'm also stuck at the "so what", but for different reasons. What is order flow?

What benefits do the buyers get from knowing my trading history?

To be clear, I would not entirely blame Apple. Apple is a digital company who will not care a lot about borders and region when selling hardware and software. But in order to sell movies and music that they do not "own", they have to enter into signed legal agreements with the rights-holders of that media. e.g. "Cars" is owned by Disney/Pixar.

Those agreements will mandate that Apple enforce this antiquated fuckwitery.
