Yeah, marketers aren't any better. If I was buying a new 172 I'd probably be more interested in a BRS (whole airframe parachute) than an AoA sensor.

I think link should be changed to https://w3techs.com/technologies/details/pl-php/all/all, because it points to more actual results. On that page, we can see a diagram that shows many websites has not been updated to work with latest PHP 7+, which I'd say is quite shameful and/or method used by authors of this report to check PHP version is not adequate (I guess it is now a common standard to hide version of the used interpreter in a HTTP header, while it wasn't obvious todo task when only 5.x was available). Additionally, I found it is quite wrong to putting equal mark between PHP and Hack (HHVM) in section of "Popular sites using PHP".

Edit: Fixed some language errors and typos.
> There hasn't even been a preliminary report on the Ethiopian crash so we can't say with any certainty that the failure was the same.

But there has been on Lion Air, compelling ADS-B data for Ethiopian, and every regulatory agency in the world agrees they're similar enough to warrant grounding the entire fleet.

> Limiting the authority of the MCAS system is likely to be the real fix.

They're already changing it to take data from both sensors, and there's been talk of requiring a third for voting logic. So the "real fix" is treating a safety critical sensor as a safety critical sensor.
> You don't have someone following you around from store to store writing down every product you touch or look at, and then block you from entering other stores until you watch an ad.

Great point. Online advertising is creepy.
I've read in various places that nuclear power missed its window of opportunity. It would have been great had they been up and running now. But to start building them now would mean they're up and running after wind and solar and batteries have significantly brought the price of power down to a level that makes nuclear power plants unviable.
Because the main reason for using renewables is to reduce CO2 emissions and Nuclear is a great way to reduce CO2 emissions and it is the safest technology around. (yes, even when accounting for Chernobyl, Three Miles Island and Fukushima).
For the landlord side: Renting out my one house in London after I bought another one to live in (across the country). I had tenants who flat out refused to pay their rent after a few months living there. This went on for several years, and it took legal battles and numerous court fees to evict them. None of which they turned up to contest.

Before they left, they plastered globs of lard on the walls, and destroyed the kitchen floor and wall by rigging the water pipes to constantly overflow down the outside wall.

I was not allowed to enter the property to inspect it, nor was I allowed to "harass them" by speaking to them face-to-face, because they didn't want me to. I was powerless.

Yes, they lost their deposit, but I was out of pocket tens of thousands, which I basically couldn't afford. I maxed out my credit cards and bank account overdrafts. Even selling the house, it took me nearly 5 years to get back to zero.

I'm not saying that UK law is worse for landlords, but the laws aren't particularly on the side of landlords either.
If you're going to do that, your best bet is probably to take handwritten notes on a tablet while recording using an app that syncs the two.

I sometimes do this; it's also nice that I can snap a photo of a slide with the tablet and insert it into the notes.

TBH, I mostly type notes, in part because my handwriting is really bad and, if I'm going to write something up about an event cutting and pasting is easier. OTOH, I sometimes prefer to have fairly cursory notes knowing that I can always go back to exactly what was said if I need/want to.
> People don't want to spend a lot.

The fact that prices are going up proves this is not true.
That just ended up jacking up every property by 20k to give more profit to developers who were complaining.

Completely short-sighted.
So, in most cases, going from renting to buying a similar property is definitely worth it. You'll pay about the same monthly (all included).

As someone who owns in SF, this is definitely not the case here.

For a $1.5M home in SF, the total monthly outlay includes mortgage ($5,557 @ 3.75% with 20% down), property taxes ($1,454), property insurance ($2,250) for a grand total of $9,262 per month. You could rent the same house for $6,000 per month. And that doesn't even include expected maintenance ($625 per month) and opportunity cost of your $300,000 down payment ($1,250 @ 5%). So grand total, you're spending over $11,000 per month or $5,000 more than the cost of renting.

The reason for this is appreciation. If you're house goes up in value by 5% per year, that $75,000 that more than covers the extra $60,000 you're paying over renting. Question is - will it keep going up that much?

I'm genuinely curious why my comment is harmful rather than helpful (that is, why the downvotes?) to the goal of having an insightful conversation about the societal effects of artificial meat. The parent comment points out the possibility for the existence of lab-grown meat to lead to it becoming an enforced norm in some wealthy cultures. My comment points out that such an enforced cultural norm is going to clash sharply with cultural traditions that are a significant part of their lives. Among the questions that follows are:

1) Is there a way for lab-grown meat to become prevalent without it leading to such a clash?

2) Are there things we can do to prevent such a clash from becoming violent?

3) Are there ways for lab-grown meat to be developed in a way that small-scale poor herders in mountains with moderate infrastructure can own its means of production?

4) Is there a way to go into a culture which currently eats meat with every meal[1], take away their means of producing meat, and have it not result in a violent backlash agains whichever organisation is trying to do this?

As air bags are activated by accelerometers, and having an air bag inflate while you are driving could cause a crash, I think your analogy is appropriate in a way that might not be immediately obvious.

In an emergency, too many warnings can be harmful. This can be a problem in hospitals, where every device beeps for all sorts of reasons. At Three Mile Island, the control panel became a 'christmas tree' of colored lights, when there was really only one problem: a stuck valve.

It is especially a problem when the significance of the alarm is not clear, as when a sensor is a control input to multiple systems with complex algorithms.

I would guess a warning light would be most useful in pre-flight checks, as a go/no-go indicator. It could also be an item in troubleshooting checklists (if the stick is shaking, yet the airspeed is good, is the AofA light on?)
> Build more housing, lots and lots more housing.

We've already tried this, it doesn't work. Housing is valued exclusively by the value of the housing around it. Building more housing raises the value (and therefore the cost) of all nearby housing, and does so continuously until the economy resets.

So, if you are a private equity firm, you love this, because it's a guaranteed safe place to park tons and tons of money.

But if you are a human who needs to buy housing to survive, more housing hurts you, because it drives the "fair-market value" for all nearby housing higher, making any specific unit less affordable to you personally. Paradoxically, the more housing construction happens, the less likely a person can actually get housing.

---

There isn't a "just supply vs demand" on housing, because supply isn't fungible, and (with the exception of perhaps California), the demand is not primarily driven by people, but by private equity. You can't out-build private equity, no matter how many cranes hit the sky, because (currently) the act of taking the loan to begin construction generates more of the private equity that you are trying to outbuild. To fix housing, you have to fix equity first, because (in most but not all cities) the finances are the problem, not some huge influx of new residents.

"We'll just out-build these high prices" is the housing equivalent of "we'll lose money on each transaction, but make up for it in volume".
Most US states do allow some measure of underage drinking with parental permission, IIRC. But it's true that that's not really a strong/common part of the culture.

I've known people who liked using mindmaps for this purpose. Personally, I could never get into them but big fans exist.
It's not unlikely that people who are successful have adverse childhoods (even when the adversity is not directly related to the activity of their success unlike yours) because it's a lot easier to survive the sheer terror of being 1) a child and 2) reminded that you have neither power nor security day in and day out with the dopamine rush of being the very, very best at something. It builds resilience.

But I don't think we should change how we reward these kids, because in a number of cases that reward keeps them alive, and outcomes from adverse childhood experiences that are not obsessive competitiveness and huge success in a specific area are typically much, much worse.

Yes "normal" people often have trouble seeing this (& it's frustrating as a suffering kid, that adults who are very much not suffering are using your story and taking pride in your accomplishment, as though it's theirs also, not knowing what you narrowly escaped to get there), but it may bring worse outcomes if they did (for example I would never tell my child that Little Johnny is better at basketball than they are because they play every night till 10 because that's all they have to do until their mom gets home and on the courts no one beats them up, even if it's true, because I'm not confident that my "normal" kid would use the information in a way that's wise and kind).
In the US at least, the 21 yo drinking age is mostly a wholly pragmatic law to reduce teenage drunk driving (which affects more than the individual).

Because making the legal drinking age 21 has stopped people between 18-21 from getting alcohol.

Will the death of those people lead to extinction of the human race? People have died from unsafe drinking water as long as humanity has existed. This is not a new threat. In the absolute worst case climate change can make the planet inhospitable to humans forever. We are only a century away from that if we keep emitting the same amount of CO2 as we currently do.

I have found that much of the benefit of functional programming is in the consistent guarantees it makes, not only about your own code but also others' that you depend on. Languages that try to do it all often leave me feeling disjointed. You end up with some libraries written in a strong OOP style, but then others are written with a functional flavor, and then your own code necessarily has to take on a strange amalgamation of the two.
Install a PiHole (https://pi-hole.net/) and redirect all port 53 (DNS) traffic to it. One of many guides:

Deep learning optimizer visualization (ensmallen)
So, the dns server of my provider against Cloudflare DNS it is. That seems to be a good idea for people in unfree countries like iran.

But since my provider knows every ip i connect to, they already have everything they need in the first place, even if i dont use their dns.

So handing over the dns requests to a third party seems to be a rather not so smart move to me.

edit: oh, and the cloudflare dns servers are located within the 5 eyes states? nice...

Like when the economy crashes and you lose your job.

It’s amazing to me that only 11 years ago the world say one of the worst housing crashes in a century, yet people think “it’s different this time” and keep pouring money into an already overheated asset.

It’s going to be interesting!
I'm in a bit of insurance hell at the moment.

Depending on when I call them during the month, I might owe money or I might not....

Before the colonoscopy, they said I would owe $500 for my deductible, which is correct.

Then I got there, they said I didn't need to pay anything, and I just got a bill yesterday for $2700. The insurance line items say they covered about $1300 of it. Now I get to fight insurance again because I shouldn't be paying anything over $500. I have 30 days before collections too.

I love paying for the privilege of fighting for insurance coverage.

As a practical if not legal matter, people can do more or less as they please in their own homes. But I'm personally glad I went to college at a time when drinking alcohol was pretty much all above board. (At least at the time, the fact that the drinking age was legally 18 meant that drinking as a college student was pretty much OK even if you weren't actually 18 yet. The local bar we frequented was fine with just a college ID; they didn't otherwise check age.)

> if later killing animals for meat gets banned, people won't have anything to compare it to.

In the United States, I suspect that a combination of the 1st amendment and at least one religious tradition[1] would prevent any federal or state prohibition on killing animals for meat. Therefore, there will be people who have the experience to compare the two.

[1] For example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eid_al-Adha

Ah, I should maybe have been more clear. My point was that it would have better effects to change the culture around drinking, rather than increasing the age limit of when you can drink.

I recommended Firefox mostly because it's been around longer and people have probably heard of it. For your average person, the steps in this article are already asking a lot so I wanted to keep things as familiar as possible. Even if someone doesn't use Firefox currently, they've probably heard of it, and that decreases the friction of taking actions to switch.
No, any solution just needs to incentivize people to share real data. If I don't share where I live, you can't make useful showtime recommendations, if I don't share who my friends are, you can't send me their cat memes, etc

Yeah - renewables are quicker to bring online, and allow for faster iteration and innovation. If Australia currently had nuclear power plants I definitely wouldn't be in favour of shutting them down, but it seems a better bet to invest in the renewable energy.
Switched back to Firefox since the Quantum release and I'm very happy with it. On mobile I still use Chrome, but I'm gonna check out how FF works on mobile :).
The weapons proliferation part has already been dealt with, since it depends on the type of nuclear reactor you build. Thorium salt reactors, are non-proliferation by design.

> costs too much

because we haven't invested in any experimentation in most markets. The US has stopped building new reactors for decades. There's no reason why nuclear reactors can't be made to be cheaper.

> I think it's no longer great;

This needs a benchmark. Nothing is great in absolute. It's still great vs all the other energy productions methods. Solar need huge surfaces to produce large quantities of energy, and solar panels require very toxic materials for manufacture... nothing's perfect unfortunately.
You're right. My Android One Nokia 7.1 comes with at least 64 evenwell/HMDGlobal apps, albeit behind the scenes. There's no docs on any of them as far as I can tell so you can only guess from the name what they do.

Wow, so not only do you have to spend millions of dollars to create an automated filter (YouTube reportedly spent 60), you also have to spend $X on humans to review false positive claims and $Y on copyright infringement cases in which your automated filter wasn't good enough.

The progress in medical sciences can be surprisingly messy. Moral issues abound, and a lot of important work has been done against the scientific consensus.

Early operations on human heart were gonzo and against the prevailing wisdom[1]; discovery that stomach ulcers are caused by bacteria was the doctor purposefully drinking bacterial cocktail, falling ill, and curing himself with proper antibiotics [2]; the first cardiac catheterization with imaging was done on the doctor himself via subterfuge because otherwise he would've been stopped [3]. An Air Force doctor strapped himeslf to a rocked sled and rigorously subjected himself to up to 42Gs and near-Mach windblast, with the results greatly improving air safety [4].

And that's just off of the top of my head.
