They're not all highway signs, but if you put them on most buildings in NH, nobody would ever see them. I live in the biggest "city" (which has local, rather than state mandated historical plaques all over it, FWIIW), and it's only 100,000 people.

I can't speak for mooseburger, but I did a search, and it turned up some pretty shocking Wikipedia articles:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rochdale_child_sex_abuse_rin...

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotherham_child_sexual_explo...

From Wikipedia:

> The failure to address the abuse was attributed to a combination of factors revolving around race, class and gender—contemptuous and sexist attitudes toward the mostly working-class victims; fear that the perpetrators' ethnicity would trigger allegations of racism and damage community relations; the Labour council's reluctance to challenge a Labour-voting ethnic minority; lack of a child-centred focus; a desire to protect the town's reputation; and lack of training and resources.
Did Watson and his co-author fail to credit her in their paper? If they credited her, but the media failed to give her attention, it's not his fault.
Ahh yes, I’d forgotten about the variant type.

I loved “Option Explicit”. To the extent that it was almost always the first line I’d write for any new project, module and class.
That seems overly dismissive of the finding on mitochondrial activity:

" The team then assessed the efficacy of UA by looking at cellular and mitochondrial health biomarkers in the participants' blood and muscle tissue. The results were compelling: UA stimulates mitochondrial biogenesis—the process by which cells increase mitochondrial mass—in the same way as regular exercise.

UA is the only known compound that re-establishes cells' ability to recycle defective mitochondria. "
Things to consider – if your ISP blocked the VPN you used
Irradiated foods are bombarded with ionizing alpha and/or beta particles. This causes cell damage to organisms responsible to spoiling or contaminating the food (thus improving safety and shelf life), but does not cause any of the matter to become radioactive itself. In a nuclear accident, there is a chance that a victim becomes exposed to neutron or gamma radiation, both of which can induce arbitrary matter (including in a victim's body) to become radioactive. Whether or not their bodies actually became radioactive sources, it's pretty clear that the medical staff assumed that was the case, considering victims of ARS from the incident were burried in zinc coffins after their deaths.

Hong Kong lawmaker says police can access hospital details of injured protesters
Depends on the process. You wouldn't want to drink the cooling water of Fukushima now.

I don't know what you are talking about with irradiated meat. I guess you mean it being disinfected with ionizing light or something? That would be profoundly different besides also having something to do with electromagnetic radiation.

If you somehow ingest something radioactive, you yourself would become a source of alpha, beta or gamma-radiation. This is what happened in Chernobyl. Particles were exploded all over the place.

If that is enough to have glowing kids is another question. But the fear isn't as irrational as claimed. Even if there might have been an overreaction. Or something classified as such as there actually were quite a few cases that suffered from the incident. It just seems not as bad as repercussion became gradually visible.

So my company (a Symfony shop) is currently migrating its API to this, despite my recommendation, and the lack of maturity of the project really shows sometimes.

So far it has slowed us down more than speed us up, except maybe right at the beginning, which in my experience is usually the case with these kind of tools.

From what I hear there was problems due excessive db queries for serializing entities and stuff. I do not work on that project though so I don't have more details and take all that with a grain of salt.

I would call this YAHCMS (Yet Another Headless CMS). This has a client app however, where in most of the headless cms they give you a client library at most and you can use the framework that you like.

You have several headless cms for almost any language, so you can start with your language and database of choice and move from there.

I particularly settled with this arquitecture:
- Postgraphile as an api layer over the postgresql storage
- prect client, as I work with old embedded systems and need something very small.

I wasn't commenting on the current state of self-driving car's safety...we can debate that endlessly so I won't. But the direction we're currently heading in is pretty darn clear.
I remember the first time I used a map on a capacitive screen (iPod Touch 1st gen) and yes, it was pretty special. But I also remember many hours around that era (and many following, adding more often) working with 3D models by touching and middle-mouse-dragging around. Then I got a 3D Connection SpaceMouse 6-axis joystick, which is hugely superior to the smoothest touchscreen.

Similarly, my Xbox 360 controller and modern games produce astonishing graphics and realism that feel really immediate; my eyes tell me I'm in the plane, and when I'm coming in too low and too fast I want to will the plane upwards. But I can't feel it. Pulling the stick back on my ancient force-feedback joystick with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002 (wow, the graphics on that feel dated now) gave a tangible control surface load. The buzz of 'haptic feedback' just isn't the same.

> Curious, do you own a car, or are you renting them?

I rent. Living centrally in a major city owning a car is more trouble than it's worth I find.

Consistency is definitely one of the prime reasons I prefer CarPlay. I feel CarPlay is really dumb, and that's a good thing. There aren't really that many things I want from my car interface, beyond temperature and music control, and navigation. Of those only the latter two would be controlled in CarPlay, and it works really well – better than any other interface I've used. It doesn't try to be fancy, have a bunch of useless animations or weird interaction. There's also no dragging anywhere, or at least not that I've seen – only simple pointing. Trying to drag a slider to change temperature in one of the newer Volvos is an absolute pain.

If I spent more than a week or two with the car, maybe I'd care to learn more about its interface, but I almost never do. So you're absolutely spot on with your reflection, at least in my case – consistency is key.
Location may be used during setup, but only timing is used during normal operation.

Long version: When a new site is installed from nothing, it doesn't even have a name in the database yet, so it gets a sequential number. If several sites are being commissioned at the same time, the techs need a way to establish which one they're talking to. Querying the GPS timing module for its location is a good way to be sure you're not mixing something up.

But the site timing antenna is not necessarily on or even near the tower itself, they could be a hundred feet away. So the location used for location-critical services is actually surveyed in a separate step and programmed in as a site parameter that does not change. It's not dynamically derived from GPS during operation.
yes. what's your point

This is an odd way of looking at it. Far from being a problem for self-driving cars, the development of ever-more capable assistance and warning technologies is the rational way to go about refining the technologies that will be needed for fully self-driving cars.

This situation is only a problem for those manufacturers who want to pass off partial autonomy as the real thing.

1) Metabolic side effects tend to be slow and subtle. Vioxx caused increased heart attacks over time. Passing a phase 1 safety trial is fine and dandy, but it’s a far cry short of long-term safety in a drug targeting metabolism, and it’s not even where most drugs fail.

2) Lab evidence for a biomarker for a metabolic process is so far short of evidence of clinical improvement that it’s a joke. I will never stop deriding studies that point to proxy markers (or in this case, proxy proxy markers) as evidence of benefit. This has been proven to be inadequate so many times, across so many different studies, that it’s just not worth talking about anymore.

This is a perfectly fine and valid phase 1 study. It says “we have identified a dose range that doesn’t immediately sicken people.” That’s what phase 1 trials do. The rest is press release hype.
At least ford and Toyota already do to some extent.
That sounds like quite the transformer. That must have been at one of the big 345kV subs. And I assume shipping filled is to avoid the time needed to remove air bubbles.

I know a few people in the ConEd trenches, one guy is a lineman who does all the >=69kV stuff and the other guy worked in substations and was in mott haven last I spoke to him (cushy job).

I'm always amazed how much new tech con ed has installed and how much old stuff is still kicking around. I live in south queens and we're all 4kV overhead fed from area subs in turn fed by 27kV. Some of those 4kV poles have westinghouse transformers from the 30/40's still in service, glass insulators, and leftover wooden pins from older insulators. Some are so old the primaries have fallen off and just hang between two adjacent poles, some the crossarms are half falling off. Amazing this grid doesn't go down more. Then the next pole is brand new, composite strain insulators, cutouts, reclosers, metering, etc. All modern hardware. And I know some areas they upgraded the 4kV overhead to 27kV. The secondaries are in even worse condition, ancient cloth insulation half weatherd/baked off. But it all still works.

I really love how there's this massive network of cabling and systems which orchestrate the flow of power from multiple synchronized generators so it can get to your humble wall socket and charge a phone or turn a light bulb on.
It's possible we are saying the same thing, but I think he sounds a bit awkward. In many of the calls, when the other person says "thanks", he responds simply with a "goodbye." He should at least respond with a "thanks for your time. looking forward to hearing from you soon!", something that makes it look like he's interested and leaves a positive impression.

If you look at what APOLLO has cost back in those days maybe then you'd understand why we didn't.

Landing a few people and picking up a few rocks and taking a few selfies cost, inflation-adjusted for 2019, a whopping $288.1 billion [1].

This money was spent to "stick it to the communists" because they were winning at the space race (first man in space, etc...). We just happened to get a bunch of benefits along the way.

The several more hundred billion that would have followed if we decided to build entire colonies - with a multitude of massive problems still not figured out today - would have been a hard sell over the decades it would have taken to construct.

I mean just look at operating cost of MIR and ISS and that's in LEO...

If you think about it, media is also largely how America is represented to Americans themselves.

Think of the typical American's mental model of America (and the rest of the world) - where does the actual content of the model we hold in our brain come from? A mixture of personal experiences, conversations, TV, internet, books, as well as the brain itself - automatically (and without our knowledge) filling gaps, adding color and detail, based on a complex set of heuristic processes that we barely understand.

Take the Russia hacking the election meme for example - next time you read someone making an assertion one way or another, ask them what the source of their information is, the conclusive and specific physical evidence that proves their belief. In my experience, at best, you will get a link to an x00 page report filled with allegations, you won't even be able to get a vague description of any specific details that was conclusively proven, because that isn't stored in their mental model. (edit: or, as seen in this very thread when others have asked such a question, "evidence" that is not even remotely conclusive, but believed without question, as well as examples of historic non-conclusive evidence planting. In my experience, no amount of demonstration of this happening will ever change people's thinking on the matter - most humans will always continue to believe what their brain tells them, without hesitation - it just feels too real to not believe it, and this is why propaganda is so easy and effective.)

In the linked story, it appears the FBI agent is trying to plant this meme into the minds of 8chan users, hoping it will take root and spread organically there as easily as it has in the broad public.
It’s hard to say that they were « accepting » if they arrived clandestinely.

Having lived in NH.. there is some computing going on there.

But NH and Nashua in particularly mostly contributes by providing cheaper cost of living & a right wing atmosphere for people to have a long and painful commute into Massachusetts where the real jobs are.

It's honestly so bad with the massive # of people that if you're north of Boston like I am we practically need congestion tolls in town on out of state people commuting through. The highways are gridlocked almost the whole way down in the morning & north on the way home at night for 3-4 hours every day as hundreds of thousands of people commute into Massachusetts to work tech jobs. Then we got Waze and now they get off the highway and clog up all the town centers & residential neighborhoods. Sometimes I have trouble getting out of my own driveway, and the local police told me at one point they did a study and 50,000 NH cars come through our town at rush hour, and the town only has 13,000 residents including children.

In fairness I'd give them that much. There is a quid pro quo between me having a need, and a business providing that need. If it's not commercially viable for a business to then perhaps my need may go unfulfilled.

It's insanely optimistic by every single metrics I can come up with. The only way I'd buy it would be to redefine "colonies" and "cities" as "10 guys in a 50 sq meters rigid tent who need constant supplies from earth and are 1 mistake away from death" aka the space station but on the ground.
