I know, but they said the same about the EPRs, so I remain sceptical that it will work that way. Solar,Wind,Batteries,Hydrogen Production,Synthetic Fuel Production is becoming cheaper year by year so Nuscale need not only to meet their initial targets and then decrease the cost for future reactors but they also need to end up beating the other technologies costwise & safety & safety perception wise. Their Design might be faster than requiring 15 years, but I doubt it is as fast to build as solar or wind.

The pool, as far as I can tell, is built pretty sturdy. Breaking this amount of concrete takes a lot of high explosives, and breaking it underwater is an order of magnitude harder. The Allies at WWII had to go to a great length to damage German dams, while using multiple heavy bombers.

If terrorists were in possession of such amounts of powerful explosives, and a capacity to place them inside a highly guarded area, they could use that to blow up a city center to a much greater destructive effect.
The split between SymPy functions and Mathics wrappers around these functions, together with the pattern matching is probably responsible for the slower system.
Therefore in the Symja project[0] we try to implement it all together in one (Java) library. Mathematica syntax can be tested in the MMA Console[1], but the documentation of the functions [2] is in the "normally used Symja syntax", which is much easier to use for the "common calculator user".

The rumor is, there's an ‘org-protocol’ feature that allows any program on the system call actions of Org-mode. Presumably that either includes opening files, or would include if someone added such an action.

The three arguments for not using Make are I believe, all false.

> Can't pass arguments on the command line

`DESTDIR=foo make` or `make DESTDIR=foo` both work.. So yes you can.

> Can't reference other make target

What is meant by 'reference' ? You can't call them? Of course you can? You can't use their output? Use a temporary file (i.e. the target name).

> Make target cannot use the same name as a file

This is what .PHONY is for.

I won’t make any specific judgments to any outlets but at a certain point you’re really just a propagandist rather than a journalist if your primary goal is to sway public opinion instead of informing people on the truth.

So I think relativism doesn’t help here.
You're confusing socialism with communism. Socialism is a political philosophy, whereas communism is one specific (but not the only possible) implementation of that philosophy. Socialism is also intended to be a criticism of and attempt to redress the immorality of capitalism, so morality does enter into it, at least in theory.

IMHO, a preprocessor can be used to convert from square-brackets format into markdown format, e.g. to highlight urgent and high priority entries with different colors. Sometimes, I need to share my TODO list with a manager. However, even in it plain form, it works well. IMHO, same can be done with todo.txt and org-mode files.

Here's how I keep this straight mentally.

The rule is, in English, you can make a noun possessive by adding "'s" to the end.

Let me emphasize one part: that's the rule to make A NOUN possessive. "It" is a pronoun, not a noun! The rule doesn't apply any more than it applies to a verb or an adjective.

Hence you don't have stuff like "you's", "he's", "she's", "we's", or "I's", and you also don't have "it's".

CBS said "This is the creative solution that we agreed upon with the producers". I have been wondering if the producers insisted that the segment be censored in all regions so that everyone would know about it. Otherwise Americans would never know about the censorship.
In my opinion hiding code is an anti feature as exposing the code by default gives you more incentive to write clean understandable and explaining (self documenting) code as it's always visible. By hiding it people might be more likely to paste in big blobs ugly code that would be much better put into a reusable function then in a notebook snippet.

The beach path is filled with these things, creating a real hazard since the exercise path is now a motorway.

It's not Assange's fault if the truth caused opinions to sway.
People self-report they did "all the right things" and when checked found out they undercounted, cheated, etc all the time.

In fact, the article says "He kept to low-fat, low-calorie food for three years. It simply didn’t work. At one point he lost about 10kg but his weight rebounded, though he still restricted his calories."

Keeping a diet like low-carb or low-fat etc (and other fads), is difficult, so many rebounce.

But the true lifestyle change of a balanced diet is difficult anyway too, and most can't do that either.

(And you do need a balanced diet, whether you follow the calories/in out or not).

This doesn't invalidate the calories in/out, just their ability to apply it (and it's not necessarily their fault, they can have all kinds of impediments causing them to overeat, eg. situational depression).

On the other hand, if you know 100% your calories, you can diet even with the most surprising foods:

I also don't understand how humans can accept liars or populists as leaders.

"-X GET" is superfluous, as that is the default method.

These observations about increased security always fail to include information about past terrorist attacks and militant activity in the region. The reality of the situation is more nuanced than the depiction by western media.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrorism_in_China

In December 2016 in Xinjiang, Islamic militants drove a vehicle into a yard at the county Communist party offices and set off a bomb but were all shot dead. Three people were wounded and one other died.

In July 2011, At least 18 people died in a series of alleged terrorist attacks in the city of Kashgar. According to state-run media accounts, the violence began when two Uyghur men hijacked a truck, ran it into a crowded street, and started stabbing people, killing six. The attack ended when the assailants were overpowered by the crowd, which killed one attacker. On the second day, state media reported that a "group of armed terrorists" stormed a restaurant, killed the owner and a waiter, and set it ablaze. They then proceeded to indiscriminately kill four more civilians. Armed clashes then reportedly ensured, ending with police capturing or killing the attackers. The Turkistan Islamic Party later claimed responsibility for the attack. One of the suspects appeared in a TIP video training in Pakistan.

In March 2015 in Guangzhou, three ethnic Uyghur assailants with long knives attacked civilians at Guangzhou train station, 13 injured.

In November 2014 in Xinjian, militants with knives and explosives attacked civilians, 15 dead and 14 injured. 14 of the 15 deaths were attackers

In May 2014 in Ürümqi, Xinjiang, Two sport utility vehicles (SUVs) carrying five assailants were driven into a busy street market in Ürümqi. Up to a dozen explosives were thrown at shoppers from the windows of the SUVs. The SUVs crashed into shoppers then collided with each other and exploded. 43 people were killed, including 4 of the assailants, and more than 90 wounded.

There are many more.

Thats true if you sharing with someone who also understands the code - we think that the feature allows you to share the notebooks with a completely non-technical audience.

On the topic of Jupyter Notebooks, Is there something similar to a paid version of Google's CoLab? CoLab is so awesome for creating prototypes and even better since it's free.

Being hungry increases alertness. This is discussed in "The Willpower Instinct", in the context of keeping you from sleeping well. It's natural - the body knows it needs to find food, so it makes you hyper until you do, negatively affecting the ability to get essential sleep.

So, there is nothing weird about what you are experiencing - it's like wanting to get air when you are under water. Doesn't make it a good way to do things.

It's amazing how much of a trend fasting is lately.
Seems to me their business model was faultyfrom the very beginning. For example, they initially claimed 1 week scooter payback to early investors. That was obviously an exaggeration. They also claimed to have market scale economics similar to Uber, but this was also false because the scooters were not being ridden from one micromarket to another. They were just staying in the same area.

Can we please dismantle Christmas next?

The current insanity also grew out of commercials promoting the idea that you needed to spend big for this holiday. Historically, Christmas gifts were basically for children and poor people and the rest of it could be handled as a social get together based on a big meal and/or attending some kind of spiritual/religious thing. It wasn't some obligation to bleed yourself to participate in some out-of-control spending ritual in order to not be on the outs socially with everyone you know.

>if your primary goal is to sway public opinion instead of informing people on the truth.

That could cut out a lot. So much of journalism sits in a grey area in the middle of that.

edit - With my cynical hat on, the mainstream press, a. shifts product, b. sways opinion and c. tells stories that it thinks people are interested in to help a. and b.

The press has found over time that most of the new stories people are interested in are in some regard varying degrees of true, or at least based on the fact something may have happened, so it publishes those. Actually publishing truth is something it essentially does entirely by accident, almost in the same way as Hollywood occaisionaly produces art.
Uber's philosophy is to cast themselves as an abstract service that merely connects drivers with riders, and anything that goes on between them is not their problem. Any admission of culpability or recognizing that users are patronizing "Uber" and not "FungibleDriver23815" erodes that narrative, and pushes them into higher overhead territory (aka it's not "scalable").

>There's also good evidence that people don't maintain that weight loss over time despite maintaining their lower calorie consumption. Because base metabolic rate is something that the body can adjust, just like if you had less money to pay for heat, you could just put less heat into the house.

Well, it's not just some fixed calorie amount they need to take for an eternity. It's the amount that corresponds to their current weight and muscle mass. As those change over time (and their base metabolic rate changes), they should change their calorie target too.

>Also "it's nice to believe you don't have to suffer to reach your goals" is a silly and moralistic thing to say. But it typifies the american "scientific understanding" of weight loss. Fat is immoral, suffering is virtue, therefore in order to lose your immoral fat you must suffer.

Actually the 'silver bullet' is more typical of the american "understanding" of weight loss.

There's no silver bullet. No pain, no (weight) loss.
Sounds like Uber won here: they didn't pay out, the customer didn't sue, and the customer was happy enough about shitty clothes with no redress that they are continuing to use the service. Job well done, Uber!
It’s interesting to see how differently first aid is taught across countries. Eg the last training I did in the US (California), I was surprised by two things that I had not encountered when I was trained in France:

- a big concern around pathogens - always have gloves with you and put them on when administering first aid especially if the person is bleeding; use a mouth dam for mouth to mouth and if you don’t have one don’t do mouth to mouth, just chest compressions, etc

- training first aid responders around what to do when a person needing medical attention tells them not to help because they don’t have health insurance (this point was repeated numerous times by the EMT training us, saying it was routine for them to have to deal with it)
I've had this problem on Facebook.
I've reported some ads for various (relatively benign) scams for herbals and the like, that use a famous newspaper as 'their url', when they have nothing to do with it.

Facebook closed my report as 'not against ad policy'.

Anyway, this is actually easily fixed without losing tracking/campaign flexibility, by requiring ad orders to be signed by a certificate valid for the target domain, if the URL is different from the displayed one.
Do you mean China is socialist? Or that the Communist party is calling the US socialist? Or something else?

Journalist don't have to be good journalist to qualify as a journalist.

"Not a real journalist" opinions follow the "Not a real X." where X can also be American, Patriot, good persont etc. where informally deciding something allow you to strip them their rights.

I think Assange has gone shit over the time, but that does not mean that I jump into the bandwagon where I change categories arbitrarily and quit tinkling based on general principles.

When Assange wants to be a journalist, he should receive critique as a journalist. He certainly has screwed up plenty. But he should also receive some protections when appropriate.
Or a Boosted Board.

But this is part of the same thing as impolite Chinese tourists, etc. It's a cultural thing.
