It is illegal to prohibit oneself from harming oneself.

This is why drug use will be allowed sooner or later. It has been prohibited and it is inconstitutional.

Unfortunately, many people have been arrested for harming themselfs only and not harming others.

If drugged person hurts someone else, then that is a crime. But using any type of substance to hurt oneself is not a crime.

All the bans will eventually be unbanned.

Its inconstitutional.

The UK, where I am from, has no constitution in the sense you might understand it. We do really quite well, though.
Sure, you can hire the fish pathology expert (or send samples out to a lab), but our facility requires us to have "clean" fish coming in, so we can't do the exercise of breeding, treating, and certifying fish in our own facility. The same is true of mice and rats. We have many pathologists on staff who could certify such a thing, but it would require setting up a "dirty" facility completely separate from the "clean" ones (complete with a separate animal care staff to change cages and such). Overall, the price is justifiable to avoid the trouble.

You wouldn't even need a different specie to bypass the money-grabbing, you only need a new facility, your own certified processes, and some clout in the industry (read citations). Hell, you could start with the fish from the expensive vendor and sell the offspring (I think, unless there's a licensing agreement involved).
Could a class action lawsuit on behalf of the 5M people who had their passport numbers stolen penalize them for punitive damages somehow, perhaps?

You seem to have forgotten "the window" in the argument, separating a single participant from "society" (aka the Congolese people). If you accept that you only care about "the Congolese people" then the author's conclusions make a lot of sense.

Except that they don't quite work without the window, which removes the needs of a single participant from the society to be optimized. A general conclusion like "wealth is toxic" cannot be made without explaining why the window is still in place.

I don't think it's spending that hurts society. What hurts is if a single person spends so much above average that it notably drains the number of workers still available to serve the needs of everyone else in that society.
Put another way:

Marriott is the victim of "cyber" crimes.

Marriott's customers are victims of Marriott's negligence.

I'd argue it has nothing to do with corporation or non-corporation. If someone is injured in a car accident due to an unfastened seatbelt, the driver is also potentially both a victim (assuming they weren't at fault for the accident) and guilty of negligence (for not making sure safety equipment was used properly).

1-2 years after moving to Finland I had a brain-scan done, and the doctor involved told me I could get a copy of the data if I was interested.

In the past I worked at a medical company, so I was familiar with the joys of DICOM, etc. I paid €20 for a copy of my own brain-scan data on CD-ROM, posted to my house.

Pretty mind-blowing to have access to a scan of my own brain (well blood-vessels at least) on my home PC.

> I'm speaking to this discussion, not the submitted article.

Precisely my point. That's not what the OP was saying. Per their comment: to get people to install your app just to try it out.

> based upon the same "this changes everything" argument we've heard every year.

Did we read the same comment? Where did the OP write "this changes everything"?
>As I said in my previous post I'm clearly missing something here. Why are those mutually exclusive at all?

If it was hard to get people to test drive your app, then 90% of app installs would not be test runs. They would be one time permanent installs.

>It sounds like they don't want a bunch of apps installed.

It also sounds like people are constantly trying new apps, no? Precisely what OP said people do not like to do.

>No? When did I say your product or marketing were unrelated to install rate?

Again, OPs claim was that somehow PWAs would be a preferable medium to app installs. This implies that the medium is the problem, which I am saying is not the case. "The reason people aren't downloading my app is because it's in the app store instead of being a PWA" is essentially the claim.

>Whether or not I support PWAs...is irrelevant. My stance is that your statistics don't disprove the claim made, and to then claim that the OP is arguing from a point of ignorance is not okay.

I think we both know that I could scour the internet and find 1,000 articles filled with statistics showing that people are constantly installing and uninstalling apps, and I would find almost none showing PWAs being successful in a business case. I'm not going to apologize for being incredulous about unsubstantiated conjecture that I have only ever seen proof of the opposite for.
Many of those (specifically ayahuasca, psilocybin, and LSD) all work on very similar pathways and structures. MDMA works on different ones and produces are markedly different experience and isn't usually considered a psychedelic.
That's amazing.

I guess, in the US, we only started tracking patients recently. I had to call and have my old records faxed from my old GP in Texas to one in New Jersey, and then again from that GP to my NEWER one in New York. Earliest record was from when I was 7, since neither my mother or I remember who my pediatrician was before then.
How many 10s?

If you are at an appropriate tier company for your skill level/aptitude then you likely will have to work a lot of extra hours to be (and to be seen as) an 80th percentile performer.

You won't know if that time investment gets you anything until the end of the year. You won't even know what the bonus pool will be or if you'll even have the same manager by the end of the year.

All for an extra 10-30k a year (pre-tax)?

Your time is probably better spent building your reputation in the industry and trying to get a higher paying job.

> To recap. The claim is that PWAs are preferable to apps because "people don't test drive apps."

Ah. Now I see where the confusion lies. I don't think that's what the OP was saying.

> Given the fact that most people are already maxed out on apps on their device with just things like facebook and youtube, you're going to be hard pressed to get people to install your app just to try it out.

No one in this thread is claiming that people who install apps don't test drive them. Your evidence proves that they do, and no one has challenged or disagreed with that evidence.

The claim is not related to how often people who download an app test it out and delete it soon after. You're focused on the wrong detail. The claim is that they aren't even downloading apps to test them in the first place.

> I'm going to stop responding to this thread unless your comment contains a substantive argument supporting OP.

The OP is the only one arguing OP's perspective right now. Everyone else is just trying to get you to understand what the OP is actually saying rather than what you claim they're saying.

Let's try an analogy:

> Millennials are increasingly choosing not to eat at casual dining chains such as Applebees.

Responding to that by saying that Applebees is the most popular casual dining chain by a given metric does not disprove this claim. Whether people choose Applebees more often than Chilis has nothing to do with the fact that they're both losing millennial customers.

>In my experience I find that hard to believe

Just looked at my local shelter website. 78 dogs for adoption at the shelter. Not a single pure breed that wasn't a pit bull. And 90% of the dogs were pit bull or pit bull mixes.

>so any sign of potential issue will get an adoption canceled. Are there false positives? Of course.

That's the problem rescue workers are in a poor position to make this determination. They are in a perfect position to suffer from confirmation bias, plus they are too emotionally attached to the dogs.

They need more objective standards. When the Head of the ASPCA can't meet your standards, something is wrong.

>But a lot of animals going to good homes that would otherwise be killed.

And there are rescue organizations that buy dogs from breeders. Sure rescue organizations do a lot of good, but they could be ran a lot better I think they need more oversight.

the forecast isn't accurate far enough in advance to make most plans

This depends on your location. Cities immediately east of a large city get very good forecasts. The reason is that, like with any other industry, better people end up in larger cities. This gives the large cities better forecasts, and there is a halo effect eastward since in the United States weather generally travels west to east.

the weather today is usually obvious from any window

There are a lot of places in the nation, and the world, where weather changes rapidly and often. Many people who live in these places use the phrase, "If you don't like the weather, just wait." And each thinks it invented the phrase.

I never pay attention and just dress for the season and it never seems like the difference day-to-day matters

Be glad you have the luxury of living in a place with very stable weather. Or be sad that you don't travel enough to understand that the weather is variable in most places on earth.

OMG, they have a mobile version?! Man, I've been using the regular one and just pinching and zooming everywhere to find things.

But, honestly, I love weather.gov. The local forecast (at least for the Pittsburgh area) is plain text, easy to understand (if you read the definitions), and updated multiple times per day. Plus, it has in depth forecasting for rain/snow/etc.

I stopped using weather.com because it would routinely crash my mobile browser. I suspect because it ran out of memory.
I've not considered using IndexedDB before! Loading a large app generates several GB of data, and extracting that data from the tab is actually a big performance issue.

Instrumenting a single bundle is possible, but it's common to have some dependency on third-party JS or script tags in the page HTML.

Chrome has an experimental request interception API for extensions that allows rewriting the response. I think that would be ideal UX-wise.

I'm a bit wary though because that's how I started initially and I ran into a bunch of problems. One issue is running out of memory, the Babel compilation can often take several GB of RAM, and the default V8 memory limit in Chrome is too low.
The issue is the genetic 'cleanliness' of the animals. Some zebrafish will only glow red when you feed them special stuff, some glow green, some only glow green in certain parts of their yolks/chorion. Sometimes this only happens with every other generation of females.

It's very complicated and quite 'messy' when it comes to the phylogeny/genetic trees. Most of the time, researchers only need those 20 fish or so once every few years, if that. Sometimes they need to interbreed these different fish to glow green and red. There are literally tens of thousands of types of fish that have to be kept. As an example: Jackson Labs has mice ready to order to the specific genotype that you want and it gets very specific [0]; zebrafish aren't quite at that level yet, but are getting there.

But the effort is worth it. Zebrafish are a great animal for studying neuro development and many other things. Many of the proposed treatments for ALS, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, etc. got their start in zebrafish and in studying how those little vertebrates function. The effort will save countless human lives.

I disagree on this stance. If you were diagnosed with depression when 13 but no longer depressed its nobody not the doctor, the nurse, the IT staff jobs to know this unless you choose.

You have everything from Psychology/Psychiatry notes to overdose records that many health staff can pull up from almost any computer.

EDIT: Remember many jobs disqualify you from the job if you have any past psychiatric treatment. Even if you are in your 40s Psych drugs at 13 are a disqualifier. "Paying cash" is what some doctors have resorted to. http://www.idealmedicalcare.org/75-med-students-antidepressa...

I don't necessarily think it's and indictment of the game, but by the time it gets to the Super Bowl, 30/32 fans have had their team eliminated, so it's kind of become a fun tradition. For me, personally, it is probably the only NFL game I do not watch tape delayed to skip the boring ever repetitive commercials. Seriously, if you watch a game live, you're going to see the same handful of commercials probably at least a dozen times each over the 3 hours a typical game last. Gets annoying and repetitive.
While it's a fun hypothesis, there's no evidence for that (nor the bicameral mind hypothesis).
