That's a great sign, and a really nice target to choose to develop. This doesn't mean that it will be safe in another patient population (though it'll probably be okay), nor do these animal studies guarantee efficacy in humans. Humans have very different regenerative potentials compared to mice or zebrafish, or a more extreme example: axolotl. Additionally, drugs that target regeneration must walk a fine line between regenerating damaged tissue and overstimulating growth pathways (cancer).
In addition to what the other reply said, it's bad because

- it's inefficient wasted energy and capital

- it causes bubbles which eventually pop, resulting in booms and busts

- it pulls resources away from other opportunities
I would care about the profits and business plan of a company if I were an employee, or an investor. But as a consumer, it's not clear to me why that should matter. If I want a ride somewhere and Lyft will do it for $8 or whatever, and that price sounds good to me, I'm not sure there's much left to consider.

We like to rag on businesses with (what we consider to be) bad business models around here, but as far as I'm concerned that's between the leadership, the board, and their investors.

Interesting, that simulator shows buses that are often full.

I think that's a rather rare case and know of a pretty graspable reason why lower fill buses clump up quite a bit. Assume that a stop produces a customer every minute or so, if a bus is five minutes late to the stop (lets say due to traffic) it will take a bit longer to load customers than normal adding slight amounts to its delay over time - concurrently, the bus behind it will always miss out on the customer potential that the first bus is carrying (so five people on that first stop), this will lower its loading time and cause it to gain time and run ahead of schedule - further lowering the loading time.

What can happen with longer commuterish buses is that the first bus can try and counter this effect by either pulling ahead/behind a stop and unloading passengers only, or by skipping stops if no one wishes to disembark, this shifts the load over to the later bus and can equalize the system - but this sort of thing happens all the time.

Additionally, even without that issue, buses are variable, they usually run in the same lanes as traffic and can be delayed for other reasons, high frequency (2,3,4,5 minute lines) will often have a speed deviation that exceeds the frequency, leading to the common effect of waiting six minutes for a 3 minute frequency bus.
If they fail there will still have been a massive amount of learning, so it won’t be a waste.
They could do that but that wasn't what the article was about.
> What seems unimportant and insignificant to us now might become very interesting in the future.

Often this argument is used to try to justify things as important as mass-surveillance and as small as logging in a software project. “Just collect and retain everything, who knows what we’ll actually need!” With GDPR and increasing focus on massive & intrusive data collection, I think this mindset is going to have to change. Before deciding to preserve or collect information (particularly information of a personal nature, like social media accounts), you should be prepared to justify the activity. “It might be useful one day, maybe” shouldn’t be good enough.
My girlfriend and I travelled through Europe last summer and I was hoping to take overnight trains as much as possible, unfortunately the train strike in France killed a lot of that plan. Still, we were able to take two overnight sleepers. Rome to Turin and Budapest to Prague.

Rome to Turin would have been fine, except the air conditioning barely worked, which would have also been okay except (unlike 20 years ago) the window only opened about an inch. We had been backpacking all day in the hot sun. If you have trouble sleeping when it's hot, and you're traveling during the summer, this is something to consider. It made the night pretty miserable. I can't imagine how bad this would have been in a 4 or 6 person couchette. The Italian train was about $200USD total for both of us.

For Budapest to Prague we were able to book one of the three deluxe sleepers with a private toilet and shower. The trains were both newer, cheaper ($150USD total for both of us), and the AC worked better. Whether the deluxe is worth it is a toss up. You'll get bounced around a lot in the shower (part of the charm?) and having the private toilet, while convenient, gives the whole room a vaguely gross smell similar to sitting near a restroom on a plane.

- Sleepers will not save you money vs a cheap hotel + day train (although the 4 or 6 person couchette might save a bit), and the trains shake and vibrate a lot.

- Booking tickets is a pain until you get used to it (for each new country). The "English" version of whatever train site is often about 60% English at best (cough, ItaliaRail...). The Hungarian website (MÁV-Start) is a UX disaster. But you can often book on the destination country site, as well as the departure country. Luckily, we were able to book on the Czech site (CD) instead.

- You will sometimes need a printed ticket that can be physically stamped for part of the journey. Check in advance.

- Sleepers on popular routes book up quickly. They often
either get very expensive or sell out completely at peak times.

- seat61.com is an absolute lifesaver.

Still, with all of the "challenges" there are tons of little charming elements about overnight trains: differences in the layout of the spaces, the adorable/offensive gendered gift boxes (I got a razor and my girlfriend got a pink sewing kit), disposable paper slippers that I ended using for 2 months...

Anyway, happy to answer any questions from my limited (but enthusiastic) experience.
As technology advances the easy problems are solved. As time passes we're left with just problems that have highly complex solutions that require collective effort to solve. The remaining problems aren't ones that you can avoid by opting out.
It'd also be nice with a capacity slider, the flow of buses will vary differently if they average a lower fill rate.
Just kind of curious.. why will you then switch to a MacBook after all this time?

I originally got one in 2016 because I thought I was going to be making iPhone apps, but after I got it and used it, I discovered that macOS is really good for personal computers. Definitely better than any other UNIX system I had used for a personal computer.
Is that you, Bernie?
If you're not spending at least as much money (+ labor opportunity-cost) on your own data-storage solution as it costs to back the data up to the cloud, your data isn't safe.
Still, that does not mean it cannot output HTML. CKEditor 5 implements a custom data model, works in the way you described (cancel native actions or extracts stuff from it, apply those changes to its data model and re-renders the DOM if needed), but it still outputs HTML. Thanks to that you don't need a processor to use that content on your page. Plus, there are cases where converting a custom data model to HTML is actually a tricky job (e.g. inline formatting) and even Editor.js chose HTML for those.

I'm curious if anyone here done any data analysis on the VAERS dataset from https://vaers.hhs.gov/data.html. I did some visualizations (ELK) and looked at some of the case descriptions. It was interesting to see which vaccinations had what risk factors or how the number of vaccinations given at a time affected the outcome.

"VAERS is a passive reporting system, meaning it relies on individuals to send in reports of their experiences to CDC and FDA." It's known for not being a completely reliable dataset in the quantity and quality of reports. The numbers are generally assumed to be higher (worse) than presented - just not clear by how much.

For example, MMR has a typical reaction time of around 8-15 days - many people may have forgotten they gave a shot or if something happens, doctors are not likely to implicate the vaccines.

I'm not arguing that people shouldn't give vaccines - but that there is a risk (check out the data) and you should understand the risk and what factors increase the chances of a bad outcome (which vaccines, which combinations, which ages, etc.)

>doesn't have to gain a leg up in infosec

>I'll rely on the one dozen Naval Carrier Strike Groups to keep me safe. Really doubt that reading Kim Jong Un's email is going to make a difference.

That's a weak strawman argument.

The fact that spying on foreign enemies now requires the capability to spy domestically is definitely a red flag. But saying we don't need infosec when that Naval Carrier Strike Group can be owned, rendered useless by a cyber attack is naive.

Moreover, rogue hacker groups from all across the world posess the power to covertly & remotely target critical infrastructure of virtually any nation. What good is a Naval Carrier Strike Group going to do against that?

It takes too long to get out of Sweden by sleeper train. High speed trains from major cities, as well as Oslo, and good regional routing that gets you to Copenhagen in ~3 hours would be a much better bet. Unfortunately that isn't happening anytime soon.
I was curious about this too, and I wonder if OP can clarify what they mean by "reduced features". What exactly is it that they want to do, which requires them to create a whole new browser, vs just creating a website/extension.

I would much rather have a webapp than have to download a whole new browser just to watch videos with a friend. Most of the stuff listed on the github (WebRTC, WebSocket) are just normal web technologies. The only other thing I see is "Discord Rich Presence".

Glen Greenwald started writing about this back in 2012.

>One of the more extreme government abuses of the post-9/11 era targets U.S. citizens re-entering their own country, and it has received far too little attention. With no oversight or legal framework whatsoever, the Department of Homeland Security routinely singles out individuals who are suspected of no crimes, detains them and questions them at the airport, often for hours, when they return to the U.S. after an international trip, and then copies and even seizes their electronic devices (laptops, cameras, cellphones) and other papers (notebooks, journals, credit card receipts), forever storing their contents in government files. No search warrant is needed for any of this. No oversight exists. And there are no apparent constraints on what the U.S. Government can do with regard to whom it decides to target or why.

Laura Poitras, the documentary filmmaker whose story was told in the above link faced several dozen of these incidents between the Bush and the Obama years.

Interestingly, Edward Snowden learned who Poitras was from this series of stories, and Poitras' experiences with repeated searches and seizures led to her learning enough about encryption so that when Snowden decided to contact the press and become a whistleblower, Poitras was the first journalist he attempted to contact who knew enough to be able to exchange encryption keys and communicate with him directly.

Yes please. I traveled this way a lot as a child, and have recently done so for recreation.

But when you factor in all the hassles of air travel, the opportunity to arrive well rested, possibly with some work done, the city center to city center scenario is superior to air (because though travel time itself is shorter, there's all the security hassles, getting to the airport, checking into a hotel for a brief nap, etc).

Note: I can sleep through stops, equipment changes etc. I don't know if that is common or not.
> On average, does wood in structures release carbon through decay, fire, etc., faster or slower than if the wood was left in a living tree?

Trees don't grow at the same rate forever. They sprout up quickly and rapidly sequester carbon until they reach maturity, at which point there are diminishing returns in terms of carbon sequestration.

Treated wood is much more resistant to decay and fire than untreated wood.

> Your analysis seems to suppose that if wood was not used to make a structure, the trees would instantly release their carbon and not be replaced, rather than continuing to grow.

No, I'm saying that a mature tree sequesters carbon much more slowly than growing trees. Think about it. It's the same for animals. Babies grow like crazy and gain mass at an amazing rate. Adults... don't. I've been 150 lbs for the past 10 years. My son, however, was 6 lbs 2 years ago, 20 lbs last year, and 40 lbs this year. That means his body is locking away 20 lbs worth of matter per year.

Take a mature tree, turn it in to a building. Grow another mature tree in its spot and you've now sequestered effectively twice as much as having never turned the tree into a building. That's what I'm suggesting.
This does not explain why VCs are willing to invest in business models tha light cash on fire for growth in the hope of reaching a dominant market share and establishing a moat around the business.

VCs believe in network effects,
VCs believe monopolies are worth burning cash to achieve,
VCs believe operating businesses can achieve what software businesses like google and Facebook achieved.

Question their belief but don’t blame monetary policy or government for a clear investment thesis driven by private actors that is based on prior success of similar models.

Banks lending to small businesses, hire interest rates, tighter monetary policy would not change current VCs investment thesis or make them any less willing to pursue these models.

Yes, but asylum and immigration are two different matters.

They often get mixed up and as far as the individual is concerned one eventually might lead to the other but a country could very well opt against immigration while still granting asylum according to UN treaties.
On a side note, it's probably a problem that people are told "Can you get out of the car so we can have this dog search it" and hear "You must get out of the car so we can have this dog search it," but my understanding is the courts put a lot of weight on that distinction.

For the same price I actually prefer night train to airlines, by far.

Sure, airlines are faster, but the time to go in and out of the airport, security checks, boarding, etc... Your one hour flight easily translates into 3-4 uncomfortable hours.

With the train, it is usually downtown to downtown, just hop into the train and you are done. The journey may last 10 hours, but it is relaxing. Trains are much more comfortable than planes and sleeping is less of a problem, even with a standard seat.

With sleeping cars, you have what is essentially a moving hotel room, making your travel time effectively zero.

Out here (vancouver) operators are allowed to skip stops when full, so they are able to recover from this state gracefully.

Depending on the frequency of the bus route I'd prefer adherence to a schedule vs. efforts to minimize bunching. With frequent buses I think the schedule ends up being irrelevant - but if the hourly bus I occasionally take pulls in fifteen minutes early or late then I will be pissed, especially on the early side.
Its not by coincidence though, TPTB use economic pressure to institute common policy and ideology anywhere they can influence. That is why pretty much any nation with rule of law also adheres to US IP doctrine and has treaties in place to be subject to the will of North America and Europe for extradition, trade, business rights, etc.
I know a similar story of a semi-homeless man also from Chengdu who have been living in a university campus and attending advanced math classes for years. A guy with virtually no possessions except curiosity. It was pre-internet so only locals knew about him. The university even offered him a job in the cafeteria so he could feed himself.

Here we have a company that has cobranded with others in the past, but over time there has been a sentiment shift and now it wishes to distance itself from what this particular area of society reflects.

It's interesting because it is sort of a rebrand for Patagonia to move away from this market. I have no idea if the numbers of cobranded vests are large and material on their revenue. If I had to guess I would probably say no. However, the public sentiment on this and seeing these vests on wall st and in VC circles could be actually a potentially damaging blow to the brand. One that was originally self inflicted.

Based on them looking to move away from this I would have to guess that they aren't really happy with this direction. Kind of like the Colin Kaepernick ads with Nike, though on a much smaller scale.
There is one line where I use this to my advantage, I could wait at the bus stop for the next 417, but if I miss it by a short time I know that if I catch the 137 that the 417 will pick up all of the passengers from the stops and so the 137 won't have to stop as many times, and I will usually be able to run from one to the other.

DRM is just a huge pile of shit. I mean, if it would actually work I would say okay, at least we have a solution that everyone is somehow happy with. But instead we consumers just loose. To give a few examples:

- When I want to watch movies on Amazon Prime Video, there are some movies I can't watch in HD, even if I paid for HD (so the movie obviously exists in HD; probably dependent on the rights holder). The problem is that I can't see if I can watch the HD version before I buy the movie.

- On Netflix, I don't get 1080 at all with my browser, even if I pay for 4k.

- Every few weeks, Spotify pushes a broken version of their web player to the website and from one moment to the other, I can't listen to 'my' music anymore until they fix it. The good news is that it seems to happen less frequently lately. Nevertheless, that would not be a problem if I could listen to 'my' music with a normal mp3 player.

- A few hours ago, I wanted to play a game, but guess what... Steam had a network problem [1] and didn't even let me enter the offline mode.

I'm not trying to excuse Boeing's shoddy implementation of MCAS, nor their hiding its existence from pilots - both of those are inexcusable in my opinion. But my understanding is that when working properly, MCAS would not kick in except with angles of attack that should not be seen in normal flight conditions. It's quite likely that most pilots would never have experienced MACS in operation during their career. Having said that, the full flight envelope should be available to pilots should they need it, without it potentially biting them. Without MCAS, that's not the case with the Max.

Hello. If boost is already part of your workflow, there is probably no reason to switch. boost::program_options is sophisticated and widely used by the community.

If boost is not part of your workflow and you want something lightweight, then here are some reasons (some of these reasons are "in my opinion"): This library is header-only. It's a single header file and you're off. As the README suggests, the ArgumentParser class is easy to use and intuitive. Processing functions can be provided as "action" lambdas in each argument to convert the argument value from raw strings to higher-level objects and aggregates - examples in the README better represent what I mean here. The parser supports parsing and extraction of std::vector<T> and std::list<T> from a list of argument values too.

There are numerous argument parsers for C++ and this post should have been titled "Yet another argument parser for C++" but hey, I've had fun putting this together. If you think it suits your use-cases, you're welcome to try it out and give me feedback. Thanks.
Maybe noob questions, but how to do tests with stripe API? For example, how to write a test for plan upgrade? From what I remember there can be set testing env in stripe but the shortest subscription time was 1 day, so how to use it in automatic tests?
Many people believe that it's unethical to use other people's work for profit, at least not without sharing back, which seems to be the case here. It's not inconsistent to believe that, while also believing that non-commercial copyright infringement is not immoral.
