Testing ReasonML Abstract Data Types Using Rely
Oh cool! I'm getting reasonable results using Pandoc->LaTeX->PDF with mostly markdown and bits of raw LaTeX as the source.

I pass `-V documentclass:scrbook` to pandoc and then I can use e.g. '\frontmatter' and '\mainmatter' in the MD source.

As I say, I'm getting reasonable results, but it's one of those "I can't be the first person to do this" situations. Got any tips or links to share?
I am not sure how much you've had to do with the LGBT+ community as a whole, but please do not reduce "Pride" to certain risque parts of certain glitzy annual parades. That is just a media-distilled version of the tip of a very big iceberg.

Your comment is not just too negative, it is simply wrong. Without Pride, same-sex marriage would never have been possible.

Definitions used for this sense of Pride (ripped from Google define, since they're good enough and I am lazy):

"Confidence and self-respect as expressed by members of a group, typically one that has been socially marginalized, on the basis of their shared identity, culture, and experience."

and

"Consciousness of one's own dignity" (Antonym: Shame.)

Note the Google definitions of Pride not being used in this sense:

"The quality of having an excessively high opinion of oneself or one's importance." (Antonyms: modesty, humility)

and

"A feeling or deep pleasure or satisfaction derived from one's own achievements, the achievements of those with whom one is closely associated, or from qualities or possessions that are widely admired."

> You shouldn't micro-optimize before profiling, because it likely won't matter. Bluntly, if you have a flat profile, none of the optimizations in this article are relevant anyway. You'll be able to pull out single digit percentage speedups, maybe.

Glad we agree.

> The optimize then profile argument isn’t meant to be about architecture

Glad we agree. If only all the people who tell me “correct before performant” agreed with us. In practice, in my experience, this is not the case. People use it in day to day conversations at the earliest parts of conversations about architecture all the time. If they didn’t I wouldn’t have nearly the problems I do with the statement.

> As an aside, flat profiles are in practice exceedingly rare

This seems to be the most controversial part of our disagreement. In my experience, that is flatly untrue. Especially when talking about systems where the performance does not meet the requirements. I can count on 1 hand the number of times I’ve seen systems go from “unacceptable” performance to “acceptable” via micro optimizations. I’ve never seen one go to “great”. I don’t know how to quantify this though, so I’m willing to leave this in the realm of my experience is different than yours.

All that is to say, my experience says that systems that don’t treat performance as first class requirements don’t tend to meet their performance expectations.

All of which is neither here nor there based on the article but is directly related to the question of ‘what do you do with a flat profile’?
I think you are missing the kinds of things that city people consider important. For instance, can you walk from your house to the market, and to the theater, and to the hiking trails? I live in an dense city in Asia and I can do this.

Many city dwellers do not drive a car and a significant proportion of those never even learned how. Does your rural area support a dockless shared bike scheme? Can teenagers travel independently or do they need to rely on their parents to drive them around? How much carbon does it cost the average family to get groceries?

On entertainment, and specifically in relation to Berlin: do you have a clubbing scene? Where can people go to dance to electronic music? Can they go out Saturday night after 9pm? Is there still public transport to take them home in the wee hours?

I live alone and everything I own fits in a backpack. Are there single room apartments available for people who choose to live minimal lifestyles? Is it even possible for people to rent? If not, how far away is the trailer park from the cultural center? And how close is that to the nearest Greyhound stop?

Things like walkability, access to rental accommodation, 24 hour entertainment and services... These kinds of things are taken for granted by people who live in cities. Of course this kind of lifestyle is not for everyone, but for those that value it, rural and suburban areas do not even come close.
This doesn't seem like a supportive, respectful way to treat people who are looking for motivational guidance.

US has often taken advantage of its dominant world currency position. For example, massive amount of QE that eventually gets absorbed worldwide with little inflation in US. Similarly "petro dollars". The bottom line is that if someone is allowed to print currency at whim, they will.

> Grails which is a web framework for Groovy that is based on spring boot. It's plugins

I thought Grails uses Spring Boot only from 3 onwards, and only versions up to Grails 2.x have a plugin ecosystem. Virtually no-one has upgraded their apps and plugins since Grails 3 came out in early 2015, and no-one's started new projects in Grails since then. To mention Spring Boot and Grails Plugins in the same statement is misleading.

We did benchmarks a while back comparing TimescaleDB to Mongo[1], and TimescaleDB was quite a bit better. So I think you'd definitely see much improved query time.

Also it appears that Metabase supports a PostgreSQL connection[2], so you could probably continue to use it.

The comments here. Ouch. So far so good my side. For above avg a months pay and a extra day off
There is some nuance here. We can talk about all of their net flows as if they're denominated in a given currency, but this article is specifically talking about their reserves of a particular currency, and oil is a very large reason for the continued depletion of their dollar reserves, independent of their overall account balance when all of it is converted to dollars. I don't have a good knowledge of what their other currency reserves are, or the feasibility/implications of converting such massive dollar figures between currencies. If you want to provide some more details about the particular figure you mentioned, we might be able to discuss it more meaningfully.
It’s just a talking point. The hot thing is to be against street parking these days.

I also recommend reading http://www.mirandabanda.org/bluebook/bluebook_imp_toc.html once you're done with the blue book; the VM is a two weekend project in any compiled high-level language (I used Rust) and it's not hard to make it performant enough for real use. I think my timeline was ~2 days for the initial implementation, 2 days for fixing up small bugs (mostly in primitives), and then 2-3 hours of minor tweaks to get the VM performant enough to be comfortable.

BTW, somebody typed the VM source in from the blue book and posted it online. You may find the resources on that page useful: http://www.wolczko.com/st80/
Yeah - TimescaleDB comes with a time_bucket function that allows you to group things by minute, and specify a where clause that queries for just the last 5 days. You can build indexes that include the ticker, and also reorder data on disk to optimize how much data you scan on disk. So, TLDR - you should definitely try it! I did some quick googling, and it looks like Metabase supports PostgreSQL, so it should work with Timescale. We would love to hear how it goes!
In the US the evidence for a central bank PhD Politburo "preventing" or even "minimizing" financial disasters is dubious at best. Financial panics in the 19th century were generally shorter, less frequent, and probably effected the avg citizen much less, than 1929/1937/1970s/2000/2008.

Cards are yesterday things. Many countries quickly moving on to phone based payments. Its much secure (requires touch or face ID) than doing fake signatures. I've no idea why visa/mastercard can't move to this. The often given reason for massive 5% cut is potential voided transactions, merchant setup, cashback expected by customers and ofcourse profit. Much of these can be eliminated by phone based transactions. This space is ripe for disruption.
There’s a memcached client that uses connection pools but it has its own set of problems.

I happen to own a car without any computer control, and for which the parts for the engine and drivetrain are cheap and readily available with a large aftermarket that's existed for many decades. It might not be the safest nor very environmentally friendly, but to me the ease of repair, simplicity, and freedom are what lead me to make that choice. If EVs were as "ownable" and came without the privacy-invading phone-home spyware as well as had a more sensible UI, I'd consider getting one for trips around town.

> be sustainable to operate those trains on a frequent schedule

CalTrain during rush hour is operating many trains at 120+% capacity. As a ride, that number feels way too low given how many people are often without a seat. I type this on a ride where I didn't get a seat for the front half of the ride. Riderships what growing by 5k daily riders YoY, though I think it's finally topped out due to train capacity. Bikers get bumped on a regular basis due to space, and riders on rare occasion. My understanding is that CalTrain is also running essentially as many trains as they can during rush hours. (They have to allow a certain following distance between trains, and that's the constraining factor. Electrification will have locomotives that have better acceleration, and thus stopping distances, and thus will allow packing more trains — and thus capacity onto the tracks. I worry however that this will be too little too late.)
I always figured the right solution here is a queue that sends any time the request queue is over N elements or every M microseconds, whichever happens first. Haven’t seen many implementations though.

Constantin, a 4-month-old baby boy was separated from his father, who was subsequently pressured to sign a paper agreeing to be deported. He thought his son would be reunited with him, but he was deported without his son. When the family was finally reunited, Constantin was 9 months old and had spent the majority of his life in foster care.

I feel you. When we got our rescue puppy, we were told he was around 8-9 weeks, but turned out he eas about 6 weeks old when we took him home. He was transferred to a no kill shelter outside of Chicago from a kill shelter in Kentucky. We took him home the day he was transferred. We had to bottle feed for a few weeks with formula before he was able to transition to wet food and them a few weeks later gradually transitioned him to dry food.

I spent about the first week sleeping on the floor next to him to make sure he was comfortable and to take him out if he started whining.

We were also told to expect him to top out around 35 lbs. We had him neutered on Black Friday last year. Figured he was born about May 1st last year. When he got fixed he was already 45 lean pounds. A year after bringing home, he seems to have peaked at 60 pounds, nearly twice what we told to expect. He definitely has tons of energy and is very athletic (he can easily jump entirely over our couch). He could easily clear the baby gates we have to keep him in the living room/kitchen in our townhouse. He did it once without thinking, chasing one our cats upstairs.

First 3 months or so, there were a lot of accidents with urinating and defecating in the house. And he had worms when we first brought him home. I had to carry him up and down the stairs for that period, as well. At firat because he just couldn't get up and down the stairs on his own, and then later to prevent him having an accident before getting outside (never had an accident while I was carrying him).

A year in, he's fairly well trained, but we still have some problem areas like barking and jumping on people. He's crate trained. He sleeps in his crate overnight and when we're away from home for a bit. My wife works from home and sleeps in a bit and he's gotten used to me taking him out early in the morning to do his business and goes right back into his crate on his own after having a bit of food and water until my wife wakes up an hour or so later.

Public can be difficult to award people without running afoul of ethics rules. You're suprisingly constrained on what, and to what extent, you can award with congressionally appropriated funds. Sometimes people just eschew the whole idea because it's so difficult.
Personally, I use andOTP because:

- it's available in F-Droid
- it has a PIN

The first guarantees that I'll know if they try to sneak something in (they're good at labeling potentially undesirable features), and the second just makes so much sense that I don't know why Google Authenticator doesn't do it (it might now, but it didn't when I last used it).

Also, I just like how andOTP looks more than Google Authenticator, but that's entirely subjective.

That being said, the fact that andOTP _can_ exist really keeps other apps in line. So even if you don't use an alternative like andOTP, you still benefit from it existing.

>> Before the vaccine, measles infected more than 3 million Americans and killed more than 400 of them each year. One in four people who get measles are likely to be hospitalized and one or two in 1,000 are likely to die

> Anyone here gots math.. 400/3,000,000 is ~1/10,000. And note that this is the rate given 1950's medical care - I can't fathom the numbers would be like this today.

why'd you divide 400 by 3M? the article says, per your quote, that there were 400 american deaths per year. but 3M infected americans _total_. there is no per year qualifier on that part.

also you forgot to address the part about:

> One in four people who get measles are likely to be hospitalized

i don't know about you, but i'll take a vaccination over a hospitalization in most realistic situations i can imagine.

also, while i can see how adverse events might be grossly underreported, i imagine the ones that _do_ get reported skew the data set towards the worst of the events. it seems to me that a really bad adverse event is much more likely to be reported than one that's mild.

The government has the power to unilaterally block any transaction in any domain, so long as they deem the transaction to have occurred in or whose parties are under their jurisdiction. I think that, generally speaking, it is rare for the government to cede jurisdiction over a domain once acquired.
A fun side note: the core software that was included on the Model 100's ROM was written by Microsoft, and not just by Microsoft, but by Bill Gates himself. It was the last Microsoft project where he would write most of the code personally.
