"Typically, the energy required for a full switch on an E Ink display is about 4mJ/cm2. The corresponding number for the Rdot display is about 1mJ/cm2 with the addition of 0,25mJ/cm2 every 15 minutes. LCD continuously consumes about 6µW/cm2."

This is some interesting numbers. So, for a 1 cm^2 screen, LCD consumes 6mJ for every 1000 seconds - i.e. just over 15 minutes. But to redraw the screen on eInk takes 4mJ. So if you do something that would cause the screen to fully redraw more than twice every 15 minutes, then eInk actually consumes more power? But wouldn't that generally be the case while reading?
People kind of do, since the lifestyle of sitting down 18 hours a day at a computer is very unhealthy.
It can be difficult for a patient to determine quality of care.

I see this argument relatively frequently. "Why use Kubernetes when I can accomplish X with [puppet|chef|ansible]".

The answer is that k8s offers something fundamentally different and until the person posing the question gets that distinction, the argument is relatively pointless.

I'm not just bowing behind the argument that "you just don't get it... man". Let me point out that you're right. You can manage the openstack control plane perfectly well with your configuration management tool of choice and if you have that process really dialed, then you'll have a difficult time improving upon it with something like k8s.
I used Typora < https://typora.io/ > this year for my lecture notes and Notable lacks two crucial features that the former has:

1) LaTeX math support (i.e. MathJax). Being able to write inline formulas and using `align`, `table` etc. is a must in certain fields.

2) Notes in custom directory. Currently it seems that all your notes will be stored in your data directory, whereas I'd like to save my notes (and its assets) in a different directory as well (for instance, because I keep all my lecture notes and courseworks in a git repo).
"Getting rid of the pilots" has already mostly happened. You know this. Autopilot on at 400-1000' and off at MDA/200'/DH to rollout. In between they are system administrators. Heck, even I can and often do fly my much smaller planes this way. And, as you also probably know, autopilot is required to be flying the plane above 28,000' (Google RVSM for interested readers).

I am sometimes glad I have access to Cubs, Decathlons, and other simple planes to keep me an honest pilot. :)
I don't know. Maybe mostly because I have family I'm very much consider moving back to at least NEO after I finish working at my current job for a year and that's with knowing I'd take a pretty big pay cut. Certainly if I could make the same money anywhere I wouldn't stay in SF.
The first iPhone was released in 2007. Radars have been used since WW2. Of course it's theoretically possible that cell phone radiation causes cancer to everyone but only after being largely ineffectual for 12 years of continuous use, but that's somewhat reaching, IMHO.

This is one of those nice ideas that has some pretty serious hidden costs. You’d struggle to compare healthcare in the US to other countries, because the quality of healthcare available (talking about availability, not accessibility) in the US is generally superior to other countries. So you could end up simply eroding the quality of care in the US. Another thing people tend not to talk about when discussing healthcare in the US is how much the US contributes to medical research and innovation. No other nation on earth even comes close. If you adjust the system so much that you remove the incentive to carry out that research, then the quality of care in literally the entire world would suffer.
fyi, Medicare made their reimbursement data available some time ago, including billed vs reimbursed.

https://www.cms.gov/Research-Statistics-Data-and-Systems/Sta...

CEDARS-SINAI MEDICAL CENTER in CA billed on average $2.8 mil for one heart transplant (nearly 50 performed) while Tufts Medical only billed $586k on average for similar number of procedures.

They were reimbursed $345k and $280k per procedure respectively.

Insurance companies should follow suit.

> This is... not a very good comparison for a multitude of reasons. Not the least of which being that not everyone has the same chance of being hit and killed by a car, of course...

That's also true for the chances of becoming mega-rich. Can you name any actually successful person who got into the business they're in because they wanted to be come rich, rather then because they were doing something that interested them, and were in the right place a the right time?

------

The point is not that seeking to work in a niche where you are successful isn't valid, it's that there is a point at which point people accruing more money is basically ridiculous. 10 million dollars is a 100 thousand dollars a year for more then my entire lifetime. I live in a ridiculously expensive west-coast town and I'd be more then comfortable on that income. Having more money then that basically serves no purpose for the economy, or civilization at large.

Scaling the limit up just becomes more transparently ludicrous. What reasonable lifestyle can consume more then 10 thousand dollars a month!

> What exactly is the attachments feature and how does it work? And how are these saved?

You select some files to add to your notes and they get copied to your data directory, a reference to them is also added to the note using Markdown front matter.

> Also, what do you mean by 'no WYSIWYG'? Since you render ir in Github Flavoured MD?

The rendered note is not the editor, the editor let's you actually edit the source. Most other apps instead combine the too and make no distinction between the source and the rendered result, at least as far as the user is concerned.
Generally an "undisputed champion" title would require a level of effort that the AlphaZero team apparently isn't interested in. They like to run matches between AlphaZero and Stockfish in private under their own controlled conditions, and publish the results. The rest of the computer chess world likes to run tournaments in full public view, and there are several entities which run tournaments between engines that way which can be used to gauge the relative strength of the engines.

What will be interesting is to see the effect on Leela (https://github.com/LeelaChessZero/lczero), which is public and open-source, takes part in public tournaments, and is built -- as much as possible, based on what's been disclosed in the papers -- to use the same approach as AlphaZero.
I don’t think Java and Go will ever, combined, reach the complexity of C++.

The reason why older languages are complex and inelegant is because our understanding of how to create simple yet useful languages has increased, not because older languages accumulate much complexity.

I don’t see major issues either. If they can make this work it reasons maintaining the eyes may be possible, and perhaps some auditory nerve capability too.

I’d probably take the chance if faced with early death otherwise.
Pegging limits to subjective personal thoughts is pretty ludicrous, in my opinion. That's the height of authoritarianism and rule by random dictation. Whether or not that's a good idea, it's absolutely a horrible process, which is a lot more important than enacting good laws via force.

I did say it's just a thought experiment. Though to be fair, I don't see it being dramatically more random then what we have now.

The numbers here are mostly spitballing, and not based on much, but the idea I think is worth considering, if for no reason other then the contrast it provides with the way things currently are.
Inertial Navigation System (INS) measures linear acceleration (via accelerometers), angular velocity (via gyros) and optionally magnetic heading. Using integration and filtering (Kalman or similar) you get aircraft velocity, position and attitude. Without constant correction (GPS for example) calculations based on INS measurements degrade over time (due to instrumental and calculation errors) but in range of minutes they are pretty accurate.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_navigation_system
"An inertial navigation system (INS) is a navigation aid that uses a computer, motion sensors (accelerometers), rotation sensors (gyroscopes), and occasionally magnetic sensors (magnetometers) to continuously calculate by dead reckoning the position, the orientation, and the velocity (direction and speed of movement) of a moving object without the need for external references.[1] It is used on vehicles such as ships, aircraft, submarines, guided missiles, and spacecraft."

> 1) LaTeX math support

I'll probably add this with the next release, on the first release I focused on the features I'm personally interested in.

> 2) Notes in custom directory

That's actually supported, your notes can be stored anywhere, that's really the main feature of Notable, that it's just a pretty frontend for a directory containing your notes, the directory can be set arbitrarily and changed later on.

Btw I'm versioning my Notable notes and attachments (which Typora doesn't support) via git too, the data directory is just a regular directory.

> It also seems way easier to start up something like Patreon than a FB competitor.

I think you're probably right. I feel like it's a semantic argument, but it's still worth having, especially when it comes to creating legislation.

There are other options and it's probably not that difficult for another company to disrupt Patreon's business model. There's still the winner-take-all phenomena in tech that makes more or less difference depending on whether your platform has a broad or narrow userbase. If one were creating anti-monopoly legislation, then this distinction might be critical.

They need to make the audio available to the user. Their text to speech engine never maages to get a decent transcript figured out. That or people are just yelling gibberish into the phone when I screen them. Until I can review the call audio I'll never know.
PodPreset went alpha with service catalog but hasn’t made it out to beta yet. It makes certain forms of injection / rules easier (you must use a standard log dir, you should use the provided HTTP_PROXY vars, etc). https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/pods/podpreset...

Being able to limit a user to only being able to edit one pod preset or scheduling policy (via rbac name access) would provide some useful flexibility for splitting control between admin and namespace user.
Just FYI, you're linking to a Nick Monroe tweet. Monroe is a well known internet harasser who fancies himself a journalist because he digs up information to doxx people. What he characterizes deep dive investigations are mostly just him publishing the personal details of people, primarily on the left, and calling them pedophiles. He also, from my experience, seems to have pretty severe psychiatric issues.

It's possible you are linking him because you believe he's a good source. It's possible you aren't aware of this and got the link to him via someone you follow. It's possible you just did a global search because you remember the story and his tweet came up. I'm not making an inference about you.

I am instead assuming you didn't know this, and that you might want to be told about it so you can be cautious about to what extent you trust his ability to relay the situation. This doesn't mean he's intrinsically wrong, but in the same regard that if Alex Jones says something he's not intrinsically wrong, but you might voluntarily opt not to cite him as evidence that Queen is a lizard.

Yes. The difference is we do not need any trigger/action set-up process like in Zapier. The use-cases are already pre-set. Secondly, you can do this through a BOT interaction enabled on Slack Messenger. Finally, you can also use the BOT to query key details from the application,
... overlooking the fact that you aren't sure what it means for a year to be week-based in the first place, since years aren't a part of a week and weeks don't fit evenly into years.

Literally the next sentence suggests that %Y is broadly similar, and that %G has exceptional cases:

> The ISO 8601 week-based year (see NOTES) with century as a decimal number. The 4-digit year corresponding to the ISO week number (see %V). This has the same format and value as %Y, except that if the ISO week number belongs to the previous or next year, that year is used instead. (TZ) (Calculated from tm_year, tm_yday, and tm_wday.)

The %Y text, by the way, is much shorter:

> The year as a decimal number including the century. (Calculated from tm_year)

I find it hard to fault the manual here; the only improvement I can see making is specifying that %Y is the calendar year, and perhaps noting that it is more appropriate when months are used. Of course, speople (e.g. GGP) feel that in this situation some condescension is deserved, and it may be true that what few users would be misled when they really do want to use a week-based year are more than outweighed by those who correctly choose to use %Y instead.

The objection to this isn't technical, because the perceived slight isn't technical. But there is a sentiment, more popular in some circles than others, that the user should be respected as a responsible adult who knows what they're doing, that the programmer using the interface is a peer, and that if they aren't, or are operating while impaired, it behooves them to realize this and either sober up or pass the buck. This isn't necessarily true. Sometimes, e.g. if the interface is exposed to end-users in a field for preferred date format on an invoice or something, it's totally inappropriate. But it is a somewhat traditional assumption, especially for ~system-level interfaces like strftime.
This was excellent! Although it took me rather long to get all the way through. The authors blog looks to be very consistently insightful as well.
You're implying that both the quality of care and the amount of medical research done is a result of the profits of the medical companies. I'm not sure that this is the case.
This is unnecessarily inflammatory. Several cities around the world are having an impact. I've spent plenty of time in SF (some of it with my partner who has been a semi-professional food reviewer for 10+ years) and yes, it's great. But Melbourne and Sydney in Australia – which are similarly cosmopolitan to SF – would have to count as rivals and also have a strong influence internationally, as do cities in Asia and Europe. There's no need to argue that one particular city is leading the world "by a fair margin". It's a subjective claim that is impossible to prove and thus only leads to futile arguments.
I actually stiffed a doctor once because he refused to give a price up front and when I got the bill it was outlandish. I also made a huge scene in the intake/waiting room about this. I was leaving the United States at the time so I didn't really care about my credit record.

To be slightly more honest: he wasn't the doctor assigned to me on intake, he was another doctor from another hospital across the street as a consultant IMHO trying to get onto my case so he could bill me.
Oh, that's great (and now I feel validated that my feature requests aren't crazy). Google definitely seems to be ahead in layering on top of traditional telephony to fix the limitations. I've used a Google Voice number for ages for this kind of stuff, and basically just never answer it.
So much frustration could have been avoided by just using LaTeX.

Go is still a very simple language. It's not just social engineering. Compare it to Python, which is another "simple" language that you can be dangerous in on day one.

As you gain experience in Go, you learn idiomatic ways to do things and memorize the core library, but the fundamental mechanics don't change.

As you gain experience in Python, you develop a preference for virtualenvwrapper and experiment with 300 different ways to build a distributable package, then start extending __getitem__ and __setitem__ and adding decorators to everything and before you realize what you've done, you've torn apart the laws of physics and your code has nightmarish side effects lurking around every corner.

Location of where you are in the US matters. I'm in Montreal right now and the mental healthcare here is superior than what I experienced in the US in Michigan (majority of my life). I would even go as far to write the mental healthcare in USA, which I received ruined my life. If only I had the pleasure of what is available in Canada for my whole life.

Medical research in the US comes out to something like $500/year per capita. It’s doesn't come anywhere close to accounting for the cost differences between the US and other first-world countries.
Dasung seems to be pushing the envelope -- they claim (and have video as proof) their upcoming Not-eReader has a much better refresh rate than your usual eReader. I am really excited about that device -- not because of the refresh but because it's a full Android tablet and a HDMI monitor. I will use it as a secondary screen for the One Mix Yoga 2S. How handy the first Core CPU, fast (aka non-eMMC) storage 7" laptop to have a HDMI output... I always have an eReader with me because I like to read on transit, so whenever oncall hits (oncall incidents are months apart, so it's not too bad being on call) I can just pull out the tiny laptop, plug the monitor in and I have pretty decent screen real estate for a bit of emergency debugging.

I've always done something similar, it's been supported on every cell phone I've owned (flip-phones and Android phones): Instead of answering or declining, tap the volume key. That mutes the ringer but lets it keep ringing on the remote end. So from their perspective no one picks up, and it doesn't annoy you.

I can't tell if it would have the same effect as your method though, since I've done it for so long, but I only get like 1 scam call on my cell every 3-4 months (and it's usually one forwarded from my work phone). My desk phone at work, which I have to answer and haven't tried this with, gets one call every couple of weeks.
