You could make it whatever shape you want. Then program it to emit whatever usb key codes you want (there are existing libraries to do this quite easily).

This one happens to emit standard qwerty key codes, but there are many more that do other things. For example, there are standard key codes to launch a browser or the calculator (and some keyboards have buttons to do that too). You could also make it emulate any kind of standard usb HID (human interfact device). This one is a keyboard, but you could make something that identifies itself as a mouse, game controller, etc.
You're certainly right in that people would object to the construction of an out-and-out panopticon.
>the median household income is over 60k

Household income is not the same as one person's wage. The media household income includes tons of couples where both are working.

And while "income is not the same thing as wealth", still making 80k in income (not wealth) puts you at the top 13%. You get into 1% of USA is 300K.

As for the world, 80K (net) income put you at 0.1% globally.

If a product is on Amazon and listed as keto, it would probably meet the curation standards I set. I look primarily at the macro-nutrients to decide whether to include it in my collection.

However, there are a great number of keto friendly products that aren't listed as such on Amazon. I'm pulling those into my feed and determining whether they meet qualifications as well (an obvious example would be beef jerky -- it's typically not marketed as keto friendly but much of it has the correct macronutrients).

I appreciate the feedback though! I certainly see your point of view regarding the appearance of spam. I'll put effort into making the experience better. And you're right -- I need to include products that might not be listed on Amazon.

Thanks!
It's interesting, I use a kinesis advantage which has a pretty much identical layout and I use the bottom row of keys and thumb 1u thumb cluster keys regularly. In fact I now vastly prefer the fact that the arrow keys are so close to the home row.

That said - the kinesis is curved which probably makes it a lot easier to get your fingers to things?

Australians have been retiring in Malaysia for a while. Good food, great climate, and the professionals can find easy employment or consulting gigs if they get bored (let's face it, nobody really wants to fully retire). Living costs are moderate, but far cheaper than something like Sydney. Healthcare and dental really is world class and plenty of people speak English well.

Yup, that’s what I was referring to. Kind of disappointing that they’ve taken down Lena :(
I'm mostly concerned about the ammonia used during the process. The ammonia is used to kill off germs due to contamination. Maybe we should just throw away contaminated animal by-product.
"In 1973, at the moment that her picture was being brought into the lab, there were hundreds if not thousands of women being pushed out,” said Marie Hicks, a historian of technology and author of Programmed Inequality.1 “All this happened for a reason. If they hadn’t used a Playboy centerfold, they almost certainly would have used another picture of a pretty white woman. The Playboy thing gets our attention, but really what it’s about is this world-building that’s gone on in computing from the beginning—it’s about building worlds for certain people and not for others."

This is the thesis of the article, if you don't want to waste your time reading through the banal padding of a story around it.
Well, in theory certifications such as the CFA, PMP, GMAT follow the same rationale as yours. Other countries such as Brazil and China use national tests to follow the same rationale.

Do you still think that would be the best approach?
I don't think that's what this is. In fact, the particular product in question is leaner than ground beef, and added to ground beef to get it qualified as "lean". If it's not in the posted article, it's in the linked article (which I cited in my original comment).
Seems fine if it's labeled, but seems borderline fraudulent if it's not.
RE: Being vegan is great for your consciousness and nothing else.

This will take another whole new post to explain, but I already hinted why not supporting the large meat industry (factory farming) is a good thing, it's not just for feeling good about oneself.

It's about not supporting an industry that is so destructive on so many level. You should watch this short talk by Ethan Brown (entrepreneur) offering real solutions: Beyond Meat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4x8jfiaLCPY and the 'Earthlings' documentary: https://www.nationearth.com/ to learn more about the large scale meat industry.

RE: I don't even know where to start on your claims about climate models but it just goes to show what I said before. You are not actually conducting in a scientific discussion but an ideological one.

Those are not my claims. Here is just a couple of examples how models are used:

RE: If you truly believed what you are claiming you wouldn't be using your computer to discuss with strangers and a host of other things I am sure you are doing.

So if I don't live like pre-industrial people, I'm not reducing my carbon footprint? That's seems very black & white to me. Like I said it's gradual. I can live happily without meat. I can't live without a computer, as I wouldn't be able to do my job.

RE: That's why environmentalism is modern religion like Scientology

I think that's a bit strong. It's not that B&W. It's more on a spectrum, e.g. some environmentalists should probably be more open to newer and safe nuclear reactors or fusion tech.

RE: we can deal with these problems

Well, maybe we have the tech, but we weren't prepared, e.g. we couldn't really stop the fires in California or more severe floods and other extreme weather.

Anyway, I get what you're saying, i.e. there is no consensus on the dangers and effects on climate change. But I think you also have to use your common sense. There were other examples in this thread - people observing how things changed for the worse in their lifetime. Investing more heavily in cleantech now and being more serious about doing things which don't pollute and destroy our environment can only be a good thing.

I was super disappointed with Jamie Oliver's protest video against pink slime. He threw animal bits into a blender or something, and then put the result into a washing machine with a bunch of ammonia. I like the guy in general but this was awful.
Nope! In fact, I run mine with a Dvorak layout by default. A lot of people who use the QMK firmware do all kinds of custom modifiers, macros, and what not. And if you're doing your own PCB, you can arrange the buttons any way you want, with any switch type.

As I said, A lot of the time the stuff is centrifuged to remove fat, in which case it’s used as filler.

It’s the same product, it’s just processed more, but it’s taken off the carcass the same way, and you still get to enjoy that lovely spinal cord. Colloquially the full fat product is “white slime” and the centrifuged and ammoniated product is “pink slime”.

For a 5-year-old I might say something like:

“The sun is so bright when it is high in the sky that it will permanently wreck your vision – please don’t look directly at the sun! – so it’s hard to give it a color label, but let’s say it looks ‘white’. Notice that the sky absorbs some of the light coming from the sun to us, changing the apparent color depending on how much sky we are looking through, so when the sun is very close to the horizon and we are looking through a whole lot of sky to see it, it looks orange. In between it looks like various yellows.”

Coming up with well-defined named color categories that will work for both surface colors and an emissive source as bright as the sun is hard to begin with. Talking about color in a precise way with 5-year-olds is even tougher.

Thanks, that's something to go on. It's interesting that the referenced radio hosts estimate that over twice as much mass is lost by hydrogen escaping the atmosphere.
To me it looks more like due diligence. If you present only the main result every single reviewer will ask "Well couldn't the instructor's gender/ethnicity/tenure/experience explain this result?" Then you're forced to include this analysis either way.
This isn't about mechanically separated chicken or turkey, it's about "Lean finely textured beef (LFTB)", which is actually leaner than the ground meat that it gets mixed in with.

This makes me want to eat pink slime more, sounds like it's just entirely healthy rendered fat that ignorant Americans think is unhealthy so they remove it from the cuts, losing flavor and nutrients. I didn't realize "pink slime" was the discarded healthier, flavorful cuts of meat.
Ask yourself why any part of the lecture and homework should be kept private. We already know to not assume privacy in public spaces. Teachers are in an environment where they should not assume privacy. Student grades are personal and should be under their control who sees them - but it should be possible to challenge a bad grade. There are malignant teachers in the world.
>Why is this supposed to upset me?

The factor that dominates our conversations about food - social class. We have a set of reflexive attitudes about food that are largely uncorrelated with health, nutrition or the environment, but are strongly correlated with the social class of who eats what.

Advanced meat recovery is the ultimate in nose-to-tail eating, allowing us to make use of almost every gram of edible meat on a carcass. If we're going to keep eating meat, we should celebrate advanced meat recovery in the same way that foodies celebrate unfashionable cuts or offal meat. We don't, because recovered meat is cheap and therefore has negative signalling value. The kind of people who buy grass-fed organic beef would never dream of knowingly eating "pink slime" or mechanically separated chicken, despite the obvious environmental and animal welfare case for eating perfectly good meat that would otherwise go to waste.

Lean finely textured beef is no less nutritious than any other kind of lean beef, because it is lean beef. There are possibly legitimate safety concerns about the use of ammonium hydroxide in the processing of lean finely textured beef, but it's widely used elsewhere in the US food industry and readily substituted by citric acid in this application. If you're concerned about health, then argue about ammonium hydroxide, not about modern techniques to get more meat from every carcass.

(Full disclosure: I am a vegetarian for environmental reasons)
We've driven many times by the now closed Toys-R-Us store and lamented how we can't go and pick out toys there anymore.

Stores like Target have a toys section and it helps to some extent but the selection is just not there.

Also another thing Amazon can't do is last minute gift shopping for the numerous birthday parties kids seem to be invited to.
That just answers your own question isn't it? It's more work for backend developers to normalize things. If you only allow ASCII, no such work is required.
Yes, you can. One of the options in that right-click menu is "turn off suggestions" which is how you turn them off.
Yes, without these pins the switch can twist. Making them a mess to align without a plate. With those extra holes not only can you use the circuit board without a plate, you can also use any pcb mount switch you may have laying around, or have bought in bulk.

As for the ground plane [0], you usually want this uniformly connected despite the grid routing of the matrix. But since there is no connection on the plastic pins you can use these holes for that instead of making a bunch of other connections.

Because I depend on the USDA to ensure product safety and transparency.

If anyone wants to buy pink slime, go for it, but I should at least be able to know what I'm buying. This is fraud, and it's aided by the government.
But you said it yourself: you need a visa. It's not simply a question of whether an American or anyone else finds it satisfying to live in another country. The government has to want/permit you to be there. And in the case of Japan in particular, that's a difficult situation to navigate, especially if you are looking for a place to live for your retirement years.

What’s wrong with female beauty? It’s not like it’s porn or a nude image. I’m not even a straight male but I can still appreciate female beauty and I don’t think it’s sexist. The photo is more artistic than anything. I wonder if the same people who complain about this photo lodge similar complaints when they visit art museums that have female nudity in oil paintings or nude female sculptures?

I know nudity and even a slight sexual undertone in anything upsets some people, but I don’t understand why. I think it says something more about the person than our culture. Sexuality is a core part of the human experience and to deny it is to remove that part of our humanity.

I don't think it even has anything to do with being uneducated or poor, although they will likely be hit the hardest because they cannot shop at the fancy organic markets / Whole Foods where this sort of business practice is not even considered.

I should be able to shop at a normal grocery store and know what I'm purchasing, regardless of wealth or education level.
OpenAI’s new language system writes really great fake news
In the EU it is required to write on the packaging that „pink slime“ is included but more importantly it‘s not allowed to use these pieces of bone and meat (but only that of cattle) in any produce due to BSE.

Another problem is that ammonia is not a good choice for this. Either the stuff stinks after ammonia or E.coli bacteria ratios are too high in the produce.
Former butcher turned coder here. If this concerns you just find a meat counter that grinds their meats in-house. It is an incredibly easy thing to do and it is very economical as whole sealed sub-primals keep for much longer than ground beef, which begins to oxidize and change color much more quickly than it goes bad. That means you have to grind new beef about every other day even if it isn't selling. We used to take the unsold ground beef and freeze it before it oxidized too much for people who wanted to stock their freezer.

Your link also says that, as of 2004, the USDA considers mechanically separated beef prohibited for use in human food.

So I'm guessing that means the "pink slime" this article is talking about is something else?
No, it's the same thing. The beef trimmings they're referring to in the article are those left on the carcass after the meat has been removed.

I agree that it's difficult to pull this off, but it's not as difficult as you say. 250k is the total comp for someone with one promotion at FAANG, i.e. a couple years out of school. My wife and I spend about 50k a year and we live in a 1-bed in the Bay Area.

Who knows what the future holds, but if you started at FAANG in 2004 you would have far more than a couple million by now. The financial crisis is a fantastic time to invest in index funds.
> they allocate the resource to the person that gains the highest utility for having it

I don’t think that’s necessarily true. Any large company is able to drop a ton of money on something that has marginal utility for them, whereas a small business that would gain much more utility from it may be outbid just by virtue of having the wrong opponents.
It's a good question. The cartoon says that qubits are "unit vectors in 2D Hilbert space." However because the length is 1, you can think of it as a vector in 2D projective Hilbert space. Projective space is what you get when you throw away a vector's length and only talk about its angles.

Some intuition: if you have a particle and you look everywhere for it, your chance of finding it must be 100%. It can't be 50% (where could it be?) and it can't be 200% (duh).

QM in one dimension is formulated as "a 1d complex unit vector", i.e. a complex number of magnitude 1, which is routinely represented in polar form (a complex exponential).

QM in two dimensions is a "2d complex unit vector" which is really 3d: you get three linearly independent components, and then the fourth one is decided for you. You can think of this as spherical coordinates, but complex numbers are much easier to manipulate, so that's what we do.
I've been doing that myself recently. I have a 3d printer, so I took the dxf plate generated by builder.swillkb.com and just extruded it in OpenSCAD a bit for some thickness. 3D printed it, put it together with some screws (the generator even comes with screw hole options), hand wired the switches together, to a Arduino Pro Micro and programmed it with QMK.
Wired Aluminum Tenkeyless – for people who miss Apple's wired USB keyboard
So let me get this straight: You think banks willingly loan PE firms billions of dollars so they can pocket consulting fees and put the company into bankruptcy?

That's completely wrong. The money put up by PE firms is more at risk than any loan received by a bank. Bain Capital, for instance, lost money on the Toys R Us buyout. The bank would not agree to loan money for a buyout without an explicit covenant that would prevent such shenanigans. The generated cash flow is used to pay down debt; the PE firm usually only makes a profit when it exits its investment.

Banks agree to loan to PE firms because buyouts usually work and PE firms are right when they believe they can increase margins. The extra debt load reduces the tax burden and makes the debt easier to pay off.
Nice. This reminds me of some old patents I like for optical keyboards, e.g. https://patents.google.com/patent/US4379968A

Though real optical would require optical equipment in the desktop's or laptop's chassis or motherboard, and OS support, since it wouldn't be USB at any stage.
Pretty sure I saw this quote here a while back:

"When indigenous peoples work to make use of all of an animal we call it respect.

Do it in a factory and all of the sudden it is gross."
Depends on what you're concerned about and where it is.

Smaller things are more likely to burn up on reentry, whereas bigger things can partially survive.

Atmospheric drag can also vary based on size and density of debris. IIRC smaller things will reenter more quickly. Which is nice, except smaller debris is harder to track (imagine looking for a fleck of paint that's 500 miles away).

However things are a little different in GEO. The good news is that orbital velocities are lower, so if you hit something it'll be less catastrophic than if you hit it at the same angle in LEO. But tracking things is much harder. In LEO you can follow the wrench that some astronaut dropped 10 years ago. But in GEO there's almost no chance. And there's much less atmospheric drag, so junk can stay up there for hundreds of years.
Would you support a equitable society free of hierarchy (and then free of these leaders that must be villans)?
It is not the same product, at all. The linked Wikipedia article that you posted quotes the USDA regulations which are clear that mechanically separated beef is not permitted for human consumption.

On the contrary, "pink slime", or lean finely textured beef, is made from the scraps and leftovers of (non-mechanically separated) beef, and is put into ground beef for humans.
It there a reason why these images "no longer represent the best examples for future research"?

How is Lena inferior to the other "female" images? Lena seems to offer a good mix of highly detailed textures, smooth gradients and sharp edges. Maybe there are copyright reasons but Playboy seems to be fine with the use that the Lena image is made of.
