I can totally relate. We are incredibly blessed to have a large network of supportive friends and family all living very close by. The benefits would be hard to even quantify. But ... the kids get spoiled in every sense of the word. It is hard to manage allowing everyone to be as generous as they want to be, but trying to ensure the kids show as much enthusiasm as you hope they do and remain grounded and have realistic expectations about materialism and possessions.

We frequently do house sweeps and donate neglected items to keep clutter to a minimum. And it helps them to use and appreciate the items they keep.

More so, and now that our kids are getting older, we have been focusing more on putting money, time and energy into experiences, such as family vacations and activities. I find that the buyer's remorse I get with buying stuff for me or my kids doesn't really exist with experiences. It can be hard to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars planning a weekend getaway to the ocean or a day in the mountains, but I never regret it later.

And when asked for gift recommendations for the kids, we try to push them toward things that will help us do these things or experiences of their own to have with our kids.
I've never had that work for a Pinterest image that was giving me trouble.
> The :- means if and only if, or iff.

Is it really the case?

Human("Socrates").
Animal("Turtle").
Mortal(x) :- Human(x).
Mortal(x) :- Animal(x).

Suppose :- means iff. Turtle is Mortal (lines 2+4, implication to the left). Because Turtle is Mortal, it must be a Human (line 3, implication to the right).

Is it really valid according to Datalog semantics?
Came here to say exactly this. Additionally, although someone who doesn't speak the same language as you (e.g. English) can potentially read your code and understand what it's supposed to do, I've never seen code used as purely a communication medium making me think that spoken/written languages are more complex and varied than programming languages.

This seems like a clear signal that the next iPhone will continue to have a lightning port. They were so fast to go all-in with USB-C on the macbook line because it meant they could make the computer thinner/lighter. But the lightning port already gives them that on the iOS line. It's now obvious that they don't care about standardizing as much as they claimed to back when they introduced the 2016 macbook pro.

They don't, un-vaccinated children pose a danger to children who can't be vaccinated for medical reasons.

It's herd immunity but it only works if the vaccination rate is sufficiently high.
Might be an unpopular opinion, but in terms of value I think phones are worth it. Think of how much time people spend on their phones, and how much frustration you save from not having a PoS phone. For many people, phone's are their "computer".
Isn't that how it already works? Apps have to ask for the email scope during install and you have to approve that individually for the app to get access to your email.
The problem is some people with weak immune system cannot be vaccinated. So it's also for protection of these people.
> if I don't show up, that goes on my OT record

... but, who cares? If I somehow behaved badly enough to get banned, I could just reserve a table with a new OT account, or just call the restaurant; it's not like they ask for references and do a background check before taking the reservation. A "bad OT table record", if such a thing even exists, costs you nothing.
The generally pose the most danger to those either too young to be vaccinated, or who can't be vaccinated due to legitimate medical concerns. This is not uncommon, and such children rely on the herd immunity of their peers.

Further, as few vaccines are 100% effective, the herd immunity also limits the exposure of viruses to those for whom the vaccine was ineffective.
if you’re using Zotero check out Papership which is a pretty good iPad client. I haven’t run into a missing feature yet.

Also would recommend, if you want paid hosting, pay for a Zotero account with extra storage (run an academic group at George Mason University, aka the good guys). Don’t give money to Mendeley which is owned by Elsevier (definitely the bad guys).
I've had good experiences with some chinese manufacturers (first hand experience, Jumper and Alldocube, heard of Chuwi and Xiaomi), they're putting out good quality very cheap products. I'd just go for metal/aluminum body if you can find it.
Its not on the coast or in Chicago or Denver, so it really will only get regional coverage. The book about fark.com "It's Not News, It's Fark: How Mass Media Tries to Pass Off Crap As News" has a section illustrating this with a crane collapse in Manhattan and then one in St. Louis.

A few years back with that winter storm hit South Dakota and killed a lot of cattle (the cattle were mostly in the summer fields and the weather actually went from freezing rain to blizzard), it wasn't really reported and people wondered what the heck was going on with steak prices. I sometimes wish there was a "trend news" website that reported supply to consumer news.
I would be surprised.

The "clicking" device is not really the bottleneck in 3D design. Some people prefer normal computer mouses (high DPI), a 3D mouse (maps to 3D more directly) or touch (intuitive) but whatever.

The crucial part is key presses, all 3D software I've ever encountered can only be used in a efficient manner with intense shortcut using. On an iPad, that's hard, u either sacrifice a lot of screen space for non-physical keys, or use and external keyboard, at which point a laptop/desktop is better; especially with the second key element of smooth 3D editing in mind: GPU and CPU.

I previously worked at an employer who dealt with restaurant bookings. I'm not going to mention who they are, but it's not OpenTable.

One of the key things I built while there was around data importing. The burden of getting the data to us was mostly on the customer, but some customers had a seriously hard time moving away so we had to build custom tools specifically for some competitors.

One product would only let you download encrypted backups, but they refused to give the decryption key. In their minds, this was following their policy to let you have your data, even if it was only readable by them. We ultimately had to abuse their APIs to scrape the data out.

At least OpenTable is giving the option of exporting data, because not everyone in the industry does it, and the story above was not an isolated incident. We scraped data all the time, but only with the customers permission.
I still like my nexus, but it doesn't charge anymore. I'd like to replace it :-(
Thanks, was on LTE. Had no trouble interacting with either app, adding payment method, using the Internet, etc. It was just the payment being rejected. I think this had to be a common payment provider issue, and who knows what fraud detection flags I was triggering for whatever reason.
I don't see how this should require any country to allow dangerous children into schools.

Suppose some parents insist on sending their kid to school with a gun. Should the government be required to accommodate this kid? Obviously not: the government is perfectly within its rights to set limits on things, and not allow kids to attend who are a clear and present danger to the other children. Kids carrying guns are obviously a danger, so they're not allowed. Kids who are unvaccinated are also a danger, so they shouldn't be allowed, though with a high enough vaccination rate we can make an exception for someone with a valid medical reason.

The government isn't preventing these kids from attending school; the parents are.
2gb, I think. Might be 4. It runs fine, though. A text editor, even with lots of features, is less load than a browser session for a complex website. Likewise, local node.js servers aren't very expensive.
Yep, they sent satellites to the moon in 1968 ahead of the Apollo mission. They had to noise the images they took so the world wouldn't know precisely their level of capability, but the photos taken of the entire moon had super high, crisp resolution.

Okay, help me understand -- about how many preventable deaths a year happen in developed nations from not vaccinating?
In my area (Los Angeles, CA) landlords have the opposite problem. Tenants are tied up in long term leases and the landlords want them out so they can raise the rent for the next tenant. There are cases where the landlords ate not only waiving any cancellation fees, they are paying to relocate tenants to other areas.
>For example, they must be required by law to publish all studies on drug safety-- both positive, and negative results. That's currently not required, they're allowed to cherry-pick results!

Why? The alternatives in pretty much all cases are death. Which side effect is better than your child being dead? Or mine for that matter because the collective you (not you personally) decided that risking polio was better than the 1 in 10 billion chance you had an adverse reaction to a vaccine.

We've literally eradicated diseases that could have wiped out the entire human race and now we've got idiots trying their hardest to bring them back.

If parents want to have the "choice" to vaccinate their children, then they should also be held legally liable for ANYONE that gets sick as a result of that choice. Whether it's their own kid or an outbreak in the area they live.

Interesting point about naming hurricanes. Perhaps we should formally name floods. The floods here in Pittsburgh are usually the remnants of hurricanes coming north and so do inherit those names. And those ones are perceived differently than when there's just a big snow melt-off. But a flood is a flood. They happen and they are getting worse. We've had five "hundred year floods" here in the last year.
This is the US, but an op-ed from a favorite novelist of mine in favor of homeschooling: https://www.salon.com/1997/10/01/01school/

I was not homeschooled, but I hated school (even though it was a good public school) and if people want to educate their own children, they should be able to.
How's this different from https://github.com/le0pard/pgtune
Dusek's, Entente, Parachute, Sepia, and Roister† have stars in Chicago, and I stand a pretty good chance of getting a same-day reservation at any of them, and a walk-in at some of them. Michelin stars have nothing to do with my point, which you seem to have taken as "I think you eat at Burger King", which I do not.

My point is that lots of fine-dining restaurants can metabolize a no-show in ways that restaurants like Atelier Crenn and Alinea cannot. Kokonas claims that a single no-show at Alinea is the difference between a profitable and unprofitable day for them. That's obviously not the case at Zuni. That's why Atelier Crenn is on Tock, and Zuni is on OpenTable. Which is the point 'DannyBee was making.

† Roister, which is in the Alinea group, is on Tock, and is an a la carte restaurant and, like all a la carte restaurants, can't possibly charge the meal up front because they're not prix fixe. Once again: plenty of a la carte restaurants are also on Tock, presumably because Tock is a better partner for restaurants than OpenTable is and is certainly a more pleasant experience for customers.

You state that as if it's a given, but I find that any increase in deployment complexity should be carefully considered. Rarely have I found "we can do this, so let's do it." a useful strategy in the end.

As a very simple example of one of one possible downside of multiple accounts, consider an admin team with a high level of account additions and/or deletions (this does not mean quick turnover, it's also easily achieved through a large enough team). How robust are your routines for removing accounts when unused? How easy is it to check that every server is in a clean state? How much does it complicate and reporting of accounts on servers that have shells assigned to them or allow login?

Simplicity has it's own benefits. Sometimes additional features are well worth the complexity cost, other times they are not. This is basically the same theme I initially stated with regard to Vim customization itself. Another way to look at it is as the Waterbed Theory of Complexity.[1]

1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterbed_theory
It's easy if you're deciding between two masses for an electron. In that case you've already decided that some theory which describes electrons is the one for you--so in that context one is a fact that the other is just plain false.

But it gets tricky in cases where you're deciding between facts whose enclosing theories are incompatible. Is gravity a force, or is it an acceleration? Each is a fact in its own theory--the more relevant question has to do with your situation: which theory is more useful?

Your epistemology appears to allow for the absoluteness of facts to be itself an absolute fact. Mine doesn't. From your perspective I must appear to be out of touch with reality, and from my perspective you appear to be resting an awful lot on circularity. People have been having this debate for millennia, I don't think we're going to resolve it this year.

I think that a more fruitful question would be this: If one highschool uses textbooks that acknowledge that the philosophy of science is not itself a science--and presents the various competing views, and another highschool uses textbooks that assert the absolute truth of scientific facts without justification--which highschool produces more parents that opt their children out of vaccinations?

The nature of facts meta-epistemic, and therefore can't be a matter of knowable truth--in that domain, utility is all we have. The vaccination debate, however (I just picked an example from a hat, feel free to substitute your favorite pseudoscience) is a clash between two theories, one with great justification, and one with hardly any. It only persists because we don't educate people to evaluate competing theories, so low-effort alternatives appear to wide audiences as viable contenders.

I agree with the questions. It's a what's going on here? And that may be the main goal of the prosecutor for all we know at this point.

Grand juries are a bit archaic, it does allow the prosecutor to basically suggest "hey I'm not the only one who thinks this is fishy, I've convinced a grand jury it's fishy" - however there are no defense lawyers allowed to make contra arguments before grand juries so it's not an adversarial system. Yet.
> Traditional taxonomy is bad at determining how related species are. If you want that, you look for evidences of common ancestors, or do DNA analysis.

"Evidence of common ancestors" is precisely what traditional taxonomy looks for. Clades at levels between the traditional taxa were developed by exactly that method. DNA analysis is the same strategy with new technology.

> It looks like rodents and primates are both members of clade Euarchontoglires, with common ancestors 85-95 mya.

> Clade Laurasiatheria is a sibling containing pigs, cats, whales, bats, and many others. Common ancestor with primates is listed as ~80-100 mya (yes, this number doesn't match the other one).

This sure looks like the approximation "primates are equally related to all non-primate mammals" isn't bad...

Thanks for sharing. There is one very significant conceptual error early on, however, and it is captured first in this statement: "The :- means if and only if, or iff". `:-` means if - or more precisely represents material conditional - where the consequent is on the left and the antecedent is on the right. iff is logical biconditional.

On the other hand, reservations are an added value on top of the services provided by a restaurant, so it makes sense to charge extra. A restaurant is under no obligation to give reservations, and if they're always busy (e.g. if a reservation is helpful to you) then reservations don't confer any benefit to the restaurant.
I agree that release notes and credits are really important. My prior company's product manager made these herself for every release, and while other parts of the company weren't great, I (and others) really liked getting the recognition from the rest of the company.

It helps make a fuller product, since people have less pressure to always work on the flashier things, and can devote time/energy to things like developer tools that are also extremely important.
I do wonder if this will be revenue positive or negative for them. I’m paying $5/month for passport (though I think it’s tax deductible...)
I think they use both according to some Googling I did at the tome. A common payment provider seems like the most likely explanation to me so unless Uber also uses Braintree that would rule it out. It's possible something about this purchase was triggering fraud detection on two completely independent systems, which would be dismaying since this was a legitimate charge.
I agree. There are currently a lot of problems with vaccine development transparency and the chain of custody in handling of the vaccines is non existent. Yet someone is paying for this major social media propaganda push that anti-vaxxers are all low IQ deplorables who kill their own children. In parallel the fact that everyone should be forced to be vaccinated regardless of any other concerns is pushed as a sane rhetoric. Next thing they will be saying is that government conducting experiments on people (like the Tuskegee Study) never happened and it’s all just conspiracy theories.
Correct: I do understand that the definition of violence has been expanded in some areas of public discourse, but it wasn't my point.

My point was to find out where the poster believed to be the new demarcation line for physical violence that is acceptable (in parenting). I intended to suggest that leading by the arm might be considered violence by some, perhaps including myself.
> A lot of the mobile data plans actually only apply to direct usage from your phone. Not when using it as an AP (tethering).

Not to take away from the larger point about US data plans, which is generally true.

But the fundamental market philosophy of the US is to exploit individuals' laziness. If you're unwilling to do the basic modern necessity of taking control of your phone, then you perfectly fit the profile to be their victim. If you're just walking into a carrier store/kiosk and asking them what they overtly market, you basically have "$$$" written on your forehead.

Practically - if I needed an LTE connection, I'd setup a fixed antenna aimed at a Sprint tower on a Clearwire-settlement plan, look into buying a grandfathered Mobley device on eBay, or accept a slightly lower speed for a consumer "unlimited data" plan (eg $55/mo for 3Mbps at Cricket).
I have a Surface Book and after having the flexibility of having a work/drawing/gaming device in one device makes everything else seem incredibly useless.

fwiw, nobody on the Matrix team (or that I know in the community) thinks that JSON is somehow fundamentally superior to XML - it’s just a data encoding. More recently we’ve been using CBOR over JSON for instance. Anyone who claims Matrix is about “using JSON rather than XML” to do the same thing is catastrophically missing the point.

When I had one on my car for a while (my wife signed us up for it with our new insurance, had to leave it on for a couple months) I had to struggle with driving safely and trying to keep that stupid thing happy (often by guesswork). If no-one modified their behavior with one on it wouldn't matter, but I'm sure everyone does so you're gonna risk ending up on the "naughty driver" list if you don't go out of your way to perform for the damn thing. Net effect, I was definitely at least a little less safe with it on. Hated it.
Median income per annum in India would be about ~700 dollars per annum. Once one account most basic necessities of life there is not much money left to be paid for data plans in India. Its either you give them dirt cheap data plan or they won't use it.

It depends which country you are from and what specific language you are talking about.
We initially felt obligated for each of our kids to have their special day with a party and friends/family over. It became a stressful challenge we didn't look forward to with each kid's birthday. There's still plenty of gift giving, but we have shifted to planning a family day doing something fun. Whether it's just a dinner and movie, fun activity or overnight stay somewhere, it's much funner for everyone and just as special.
Full circle.
