I did this recently when I was renovating our new house and we hadn't moved our furniture in. Yoga mat and thin duvet as a mattress. Had a bit of pain (but good kind of pain) first night, but noticed my back pain which I've had for years had mostly gone after a couple of days.

I found my muscles kind of sore though after every night, I guess they get squashed a lot more than with a normal bed. I think a thin/hard mattress would probably be a good middle ground.
That's very true, and there are similarities in the awareness that they develop, but it isn't very meaningful to call e.g. judo 'thinly veiled mindfulness meditation' because the practices are so different. It's the same with Feldenkrais, where you're doing a specific repertoire of exercises that aren't much like these other things.

The Feldenkrais exercises have almost an algebraic quality (or perhaps I should say combinatorial) in the elaborate way they use symmetry. For example: do something on side A, then do it on side B, then vary it by X on side A, then vary it by Y on side B, then Y on A, then X on B, then do those at the same time, then switch and do X on A and Y on B at the same time. As you go through these permutations you can feel your brain noticing symmetries and contrasts that it wasn't aware of before. Sometimes you become aware that a simple movement is possible which your body had no idea it could do. For example, that you can move your arm behind your shoulder in a way that you would have sworn was impossible, or at least painful, and yet it's totally easy. The method seems to work by rewiring your mental model of your own body, mostly by expanding your awareness of what it can easily do. This is related to pain relief.

One of the strangest effects is that it works better the less you do. A common line the trainers use is "however much you're doing, do half as much". This is probably because the method works by getting the brain to notice finer and finer contrasts. But it's surprisingly difficult to do less, because in most aspects of life we're so habituated to thinking more is better.
This rings true from my experience in Afghanistan too. We did route clearance in RC North, and were often out for days at a time. Very little bad sleep, end up scraping together whatever cigarettes were available so few people had their preferred brand, the same tired MREs, plastic tasting water which was used for brushing teeth as well as drinking, etc. We did, however, get cases of Rip It and huge boxes of Cliff Bars from the chow hall, sometimes two or more to a truck (3-6 guys). Eventually, all you want is a "flavor" of some kind, and it starts to matter less and less where it comes from. We were all aware that it was better for us to drink the shitty water, but the desire for some kind of gratification eventually overwhelms even the most conscientious efforts to be healthy or maintain balance.
They're right though. Australia covers this method (offering rebates for people using it) but in their reviews of it they didn't see it actually having any effect.

Why are you uninstalling software so often through AD? Not that it absolves this issue, but it's not common to have huge software churn like this. And hey, isolate the issue and push a registry change to every single machine in the network, instantly and consistently.

More specifically: "good" ads aren't modal and don't force you to click through to continue. If YouTube just mixed YouTube Red ads in with all their other ads, I doubt that anyone would be complaining. (Except for the people who want everything to be free without any ads.)
And if you look at its build scripts, I bet there's -fno-strict-aliasing there.

All popular compilers let you opt out of these kinds of optimizations. But it's no longer standard C at that point - and it's specifically because of strict aliasing rules (which were being discussed in this thread).

The bugs you get when you break the rules without opting out of standard compliance are not theoretical, either. Just google for "strict aliasing bug" to see numerous horror stories.
You can run an Edsu server locally, but I wouldn't. It's meant to be run on an internet-accessible server - a $2.50/month VPS would do, or if you don't want to run your own there's at least one provider that will do it for you.

You're right about the sync part, but it's an old skool client-server sync, not a peer-to-peer one.
After many years I've realized that the cause of my back pain was the stress. Get rid of the stress and the back pain will disappear.
A bit of a thought experiment: Do we really need years? In the past a calendar based on how long it took to make an orbit around the sun was useful for agricultural and other planning. Now we could have a 500 day cycle if we wanted to for some reason. Or maybe a hundred day cycle. Our ability to plant crops wouldn't be effected. There are many more variables involved now in determining when to plant or harvest than the Earth sitting at roughly the same spot as the last planting or harvest time. The Islamic calendar has long be out of sync with the solar calendar but still holds importance in Islamic culture. I'm sure there are others that likewise don't strictly abide by the solar year.

Instead of having a celebration on the day that the Earth is roughly in the same place in its orbit around the sun as it was when you were born, why not celebrate in increments of thousands of days you've been alive? Maybe broken down into once every hundred day celebrations before hitting the 5000 day celebration so children will experience them more often? I understand that some countries have a "Name Day" for the different common names in their culture, which is a celebration on par as one's birthday. We are very use to anchoring things to the orbital position on the Earth relative to the sun but we no longer live in a time where such things are of primary importance.

And don't even get me started on the possibilities of alternates to the primary school system being divided up into thirteen grades. Could each six week grading period (or a grading period of some other length) be its own grade? Do we really need to have so much of our culture and society tied so closely to the agricultural needs of the past?

There are patterns (prerendering, streaming (https://jakearchibald.com/2016/streams-ftw/#streaming-result...), etc.) other than simply breaking up the JS app bundle into smaller pieces that can alleviate the traditional "SPA concerns" — hopefully you can just reduce its size overall.

Yes, indeed. You are correct. A better term would have been "climate engineering".

Though I wonder if "venusforming" is also apt, keeping in mind what the results are said to be down the line.

In this instance, that just ads one more level of convolution to the situation without addressing the fundamental issue.

If you get ads for a malicious version of a browser on a new PC, why isn't it possible to get ads for a malicious version of an ad blocker?

There's no end to this rabbit hole unless you can acquire the software without the use of a search engine, or the search engine cleans up its act.
Yes, but much of it isn't design as good, or maybe is, but regardless, email is still better for many things, enve if you do have other stuff too. I don't use Facebook, Twitter, GNU social, or Diaspora; none of them are so useful to me. I do use IRC (although I wrote my own client since I don't like the other ones I found), and would use NNTP if they made that available.

Also, as mentioned, you may want to keep some things private. I do too, but may want to write things to public too, although the stuff mentioned above I do not find useful, and neither does Stallman, presumably.

Two things, really.

The models needed to be updated to incorporate all the rates stuff. That takes time. So the focus wasn't so much on innovation on the product front, but on getting all existing models and products to play along with the new reality. (That's a huge undertaking, btw... you need the market data, someone responsible for marking it, put it in the databases, have it flow through the infrastructure, take it into account in the models, etc.)

Second, previously there were many fancy products that allowed you to trade, say, vol, mean reversion, correlation, etc.

However, trading this rates stuff is fairly straightforward (in particular, you don't need optionality/convexity; linear products (such as forwards or swaps) are enough).

Maybe I shouldn't say "recede" - but in the earlier decade the focus was more on fancy exotic products (with huge margins), while in the more recent decade the focus was on simpler products, but modelling them really precisely.

(There was also some focus on systems and ops and front-to-back processing.)
In my office, we run out projects based on calendar weeks. I keep thinking why can't we take this idea to the general public. It would make life a little bit simpler without having to bother about months and its irregular amount of days.
Well the other feature of email in his case is all the GNU email list are archived, you can read his email announcing the GNU project still, I am skeptical any mastodon instance will still be running in 30 years. Mastodon as a whole may still exist, but instances come and go.
Side.

What's the actual problem when you're camping? Where's the discomfort?
I don’t disagree. Still, that’s not what I would recognize as conservation.
Yes, I understand that. My point was that it's not really dynamic typing at that point anymore. It's kinda like C#, where you do have "dynamic", but there are static type annotations that code utilizing "dynamic" can validate against. At that point, I'd say that it's no longer a dynamic language in conventional sense.

Getting back to your issue - it's a pragmatic decision for TS, because enforcing its type system efficiently is virtually impossible on top of the JS runtime type system, when you consider how it has to work. It sounds like simple, obvious check for trivial cases, like if I annotate a function argument to be an number or a string. But what if it's an interface? At that point, the runtime check must ensure that 1) it's an object, 2) it has all the members listed in the interface, and 2) they have the corresponding types. If they are themselves interfaces, this becomes recursive. If they're arrays or maps, then this has to be done for every element. An array of arrays is O(N^2) already!

To check it efficiently, you need to have proper runtime type tags - an array has to know that it's an array of number, not just an array. Then the runtime checker can just query that, like it does in Java when you, say, downcast Object to int[]. But TS has to work on top of JS runtime, so any such runtime type tagging would manifest as visible artifacts in JS; and TS is intentionally designed to be "invisible" from JS interop perspective.

If we want quality strong typing that works properly with cross-language interop for the web, we need to throw away the JS runtimes entirely (it would be a good idea in any case - it's an atrocious object and memory model for anything other than JS itself), and replace them with something saner.

Funny, when an app is obnoxious about asking for a review, I always oblige.

My review will of course focus mostly on my most recent experience with the app, which was "getting annoyed with an obnoxious pop-up". I hope that this discourages app authors from doing that.
ps: to be serious, I even think that either use a very peculiar abstraction layer of the brain (juggling multiple inertial bodies while keeping some sort of coherent space-field [aka rhythm]). It would be quite interesting to read about that if possible.
I don't know what Gab is, or what its typical content is like, though I'm getting an idea from the replies to this tweet.

Red Bull cans fit in 37/40mm round ammo pouches/elastic loops, something I learned in Iraq (I never had a 40mm, but there are a lot of molle pouches for 40mm which were useful for other stuff).

It's the difference between classical music & jazz.

You're a classical programmer, down to the book. Hit the keyboards just like you learned. It's sometimes good and very desirable.

However, when there's a party going on, and one is needed to freestyle, come up with new sounds and styles on the go, the preference is for a Jazzy programmer.

You can be both, and being one and the other is missing out. Sounds like you will thrive at an enterprise, but suffer at a start up. Now here's the crazy thing, even jazzy types can thrive at enterprise, they are usually the super heroes that wire up the core plumbing of the system. If they get into the ears of one of the high level Cs, they will be paid more than everyone else, they will come in fast with their cohorts, wire up the new system, and no matter how messy, the rest of the classical types get to play only on top of what they built.

Given the choice between being one or another. I rather be the competitive messy code, at least they can solve the problem. The worst thing I've seen is the classical clean programmer, who has "designed an amazing system, UML, nice code/directory layout" tons of clean code, comments, and the dang thing doesn't work.
Communism? That's my only guess.

I think both statements depend on the definition of "at scale". I am no expert, but every RoR thing I have ever seen has been tiny in terms of traffic and still performed terribly. Is there anything in the top 100 sites using RoR?

I'm actually curious now if the 30 year old boomer meme is in any way an outgrowth of the Iraq war. The aesthetic the meme embraces reminds me a lot of the guys I knew my age and older who served. Gonna have to reflect on this a bit.
It also contains taurine, unlike coffee, which "crosses the blood–brain barrier and has been implicated in a wide array of physiological phenomena including inhibitory neurotransmission, long-term potentiation in the striatum/hippocampus, membrane stabilization, feedback inhibition of neutrophil/macrophage respiratory burst, adipose tissue regulation and possible prevention of obesity, calcium homeostasis, recovery from osmotic shock, protection against glutamate excitotoxicity and prevention of epileptic seizures."

"Long-term potentiation in the hippocampus" in conjunction with traumatic stress is plausibly causally related to PTSD.

Good old days :-)

I should say that it's always amazing to me how good traders are often quite ahead of the models: they use them and have an intuitive feel for them, but are also aware of their limitations, idiosyncrasies, and where the real world diverges from them.

(On the flip side, btw, that means that you can't blame the financial crisis on "oh, the models were bad". They were (some of them), but everyone knew. That things went on as they did was more due to systemic/political factors, incentives, etc.)
Oh, yes, its "fixed". Like the nice shiny buttons, which allow to set my windows privacy settings, fixing all my problems. Its of course not a fixed fix, meaning, it will be reseted the next time i download a update. So sloppy, im sure somebody is terribly sorry.

Its a miracle how bad a OS can go, that holds all of legacy hostage. If there ever is a standard for future project, there is a dire need for a interface layer, that allows to emulate every OS functionality and sunset the whole win32 ecosystem within some decades.
I don't think they will fix the underlying issue now. I've had the same issue ( literally trying to download chrome) in 2014. Now that they have public pushback they will fix just this ad placement.

I wonder what makes them think this is acceptable.

As someone who long suffered from back pain, I studied all the relevant techniques -- Alexander, Feldenkrais, Structural Integration, and more. And they work in pieces, but they're different and confusing and each seem to claim to be able to solve more than any of them can individually.

But for anyone reading this comment, there are two things I want to share, from hard-won experience:

1) Back pain and posture are incredibly complex and counter-intuitive, and come from a complex interplay of biomechanics, perception, and emotion. Anyone who says "just sit up straighter" or "just strengthen your core" or "use a standing desk" or "stretch more" or "it's a muscle imbalance, go to the gym" or "do yoga" doesn't know anything. Even if you think one of these helped you, it depends on the individual and they can do even more harm than good depending on the person. I think there's even more popular quackery in posture and back pain than there is in nutrition, and that's saying a lot. Even most doctors don't have the slightest clue -- which should be self-evident, given how many people have back pain and how it's not getting fixed.

2) The best place to start is "The New Rules of Posture: How to Sit, Stand, and Move in the Modern World" by Mary Bond. [1] It's the only book I've come across that takes the right holistic approach, but still maintains respect for "hard" science, explains the theory (medically, not according to any "school") but also gives you guided exercises. Start there, and then once you've gained a decent understanding of your body, you'll be in a place where you can figure out what more specific techniques you need, if you do (e.g. whether Alexander technique or psychotherapy).
