> The entire idea that losing your hair is bad is socially constructed

Is there any evidence for this claim?

I don't doubt there's a component of that at work, but I suspect there's also innate factors.

Hair could be a, statistically speaking, signal of youth, and could influence the innate components of attractiveness judgements.
Take a look at App Store and Play store - lots of shovelware in both. Frameworks in a meaningful way enable this because they expand the developer base.
"Dark pattern" seems too strong. Apple doesn't benefit from your turning Bluetooth on and isn't trying to manipulate you into doing so.

It's fixing the annoying issue of today's AirPods failing because of something I did yesterday afternoon which I forgot.
I move people from AWS to GCP for cost, simplicity, and developer experience.

What do you find so bad about GCP?
This...is an interesting comment. I bet that you’re way more self conscious than just hair. It was just the easiest thing to fix.

Regardless, I’m happy for you and your sex life.
You will need to work on your verbal communication (most everyone need to) as it is one of the most critical aspects of being a good leader. But that doesn't mean you have to be super wordy or buddies with everyone.

You do need to be able to read people's body language and understand their motivations, goals and comments even when maybe poorly communicated (this is a learned skill). Good part is generally
leading engineers is helped by having solid technical skills yourself as they will respect you more than just a people manager to start and give you more latitude.

I'd also start off with them one and one, and tell them humbly but direct that you sometimes can struggle with verbal communication and that if they see an issue or have a concern to just raise it with you so you can work on it together. Treat everyone as equals with respect and care, don't feel as the manager/leader you are above them, think of being a leader as it is your job to serve your team. If they need a bridge to accomplish their task, you build the bridge for/with them to facilitate.

You can be super successful as a leader, just takes practice and time. Be humble, honest and human and you won't have issues getting people to follow your lead. That said, do not allow people to take advantage of you, being kind and humble is important but that does not mean you are anyones doormat. :)
> Is there a physical correlate for "tags"? If digital files can have multiple tags, then it seems not; in the physical world, the same exact file simply couldn't be in multiple folders at once.

This concept is much older than digital files. For example, in a traditional card catalog that you'd find in a library, the same book could be indexed under many different subject headings (each of which would correspond to a "tag").

For example, I might find a biography of Marie Curie by looking in the card catalog under "biography", "physics", "chemistry", "Nobel Prize winners" or "Marie Curie". It would also be indexed under the book's title and any of the authors' names.
The problem we had in California before Proposition 13 is that city budgets were increasing without bound due to demands by public employee unions. The only way I would support a repeal of Proposition 13 is if some other mechanism is put in place to give voters more direct control over city budget growth.
For all practical purposes, every OS networking stack is dual-stacked, so v4-only/v6-only is taken to mean that there is only a routable IPv4/IPv6 address.

v4-only and v6-only cannot in general talk to each other. There needs to be some intermediary to convert between IPv4 and IPv6 somehow. The transition from IPv4 to IPv6 is mostly progressing by having servers dual-stack (give them both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses) and dual-stacking the residential networks, or giving up on IPv4 for your internal network and using NAT64. You could in principle do the same thing for servers, but doing that 4-to-6 translation for the initial recipient of a connection request (i.e., the server) is more difficult than the initial sender (i.e., the client).
> outside of Youtube, most people mostly spend their time on the internet with Facebook

I suppose this (the fact that people are using Facebook/Instagram/Whatsapp more than the various Google products) is atypical in my "personal bubble" (my family, close friends etc.), so that's probably where my perception is skewed.
Yes. The overall numbers at present are broadly similar (2.2 million prisoners in the US at present, compared to 2.6 million at the peak of GULAG, though that was drawn from a smaller population), but US prisons have much lower death rates (especially compared to WWII-era GULAG — hopefully there will be no similar invasion of the US and so we will not have the opportunity to see if a wartime US massacres its prisoners in a similar fashion), and a smaller fraction of the prisoners are slave laborers (in GULAG it was nearly 100%).

Presumably if the US is beginning to institute Soviet-style censorship, it indicates a strong risk that prisoner numbers will go up and the treatment will get worse.
The Wikipedia article for Bugey Nuclear Power Plant says "Some of the cooling comes from direct use of the Rhône water (units 2 and 3) while some is done by the use of cooling towers (units 4 and 5)." Cooling towers use evaporation to remove the heat, and water has high enthalpy of vaporization so they'll probably still work even with warmer input water, but if the direct cooling system is not designed to boil the water then it might fail if the input water is too warm.

It is just a matter of time. We've been ratcheting up the sanctions regularly, which, again, contradicts your "no problems here!" argument.
"cri", not "cr". I have two different devices that give different results; one lists "jared kushner crimes".

Since it isn't a matter of a single word (crimes) being flagged as disparaging, this blacklist can apparently be finely tuned to specific prediction results. (Maybe it's not a simple blacklist, but an ML model. Even scarier.)

That's all we're talking about. You're the one going off topic.
Flyover suburbanite here: I never understood travel culture, but I've seen it contribute to depression in my friends and neighbors because they somehow have been convinced that a meaningful life requires global travel, but find it difficult with mortgages and children. I view travel culture as very toxic as a result.

"I just want to see the world" I hear, a yearning for an experience that, when pursued, might temporarily stifle midlife crises but ruins marriages just as often. I feel so deeply sad for people who don't realize that everything they need is in front of them.
>I don't think Noam Chomsky has ever been sympathetic to the USSR, he just said that the US was not much better than USSR.

Given what the USSR was, I think that qualifies as 'sympathetic'.

I'm too bald to not get sunburn, but not bald enough to use sunscreen. :P
Amazon is valued based on the implicit assumption that Bezos is a Buffet tier investing genius. So far, that assumption has held. The main difference is that Bezos invents new businesses in addition to buying them. Nobody is arguing that retail isn't a big part of their business, but it was only ever meant to be the bootstrap. It's incredibly rare to see such executive and entrepreneurial skill combined in the same individual.
Sorry, can't afford the scope creep on having Timmy over for dinner tomorrow night. Don't want to damage the metrics.
As someone who went bald before I was 20 (Like you it sounds like), I'd say you're heavily generalizing. Sure, shaving your head worked for you and solved your problem, but that doesn't mean it is a solution that solves the problem for everybody, and claiming that it's not a "real" problem because you found a solution that works for you is a bit ridiculous.

It's easy to say I should just completely shave my head and ignore what others think of me, but for me that's not a solution that has worked - it would be great if it did and I could just will myself to stop being self-conscious, but that hasn't worked that well for me. And if a "cure" for baldness would fix my problem then that's useful to me and a solution to a real problem I have - and it is something that would certainly improve my current quality of life.
I found Airflow for a small to medium project to be a nightmare on its own; I'm sure its a powerful framework, but plain Python ended up meeting our needs more than adequately. I was self-hosting it while kicking the tires and found it to be a lot to admin. I always thought I would look at Cloud Composer if I wanted to revisit Airflow. Were your issues with Airflow or Cloud Composer? Agreed BQ IS great.
How big of a problem is this if nuclear is going to be an option as global temperatures rise?

Will nuclear be shut down so often in the future that we can't depend on it? Similar to the argument folks make against solar(it doesn't work at night).
It is a complex system with many actors on different levels.

You can see it on several levels:

- People in power are interested to hold the power as long as they can, and that's why they suppress separatists movements

- Countries which allows such separations become weaker and don't survive, because separation is manipulatable process, and damage country's economy and power

- concept of ethics is very driven by government: they tell people that it is their land, and nobody can take it from them
I guess it’s a bit hard to accurately target the legislative equivalent of a nuclear bomb.
U.S. to start rolling out $16B in farm aid next month
Yeah, I'm hoping to see use of Go routines in useful rewrites of projects like rsync with parallel file uploads. It can lead to clean, extensible, and maintainable code with still low overhead and high throughput.
May a decent medical system in the US end all sorts of madness.
Anki uses a Super Memo algorithm and Mochi appears to be using a simpler one that doesn't take card difficulty into account.

I can see how using markdown to create cards would be a big draw, though.
These are cloud products with subscription revenues that are sticky with predictable churn.

Never understood why people devalue them. MSFTs turn around and valuation are based on the O365 pivot. Very impressive.
Yes I thought that may be the case, I also thought that the links between Thiel and Fb may contribute to reinforce this perception in the eyes of many progressives. When it comes to American politics I'm just an external observer so I may be wrong though.
Part of the utility of SFTP to clients and admins is the fact there are no additional requirements other than SSHD to function.

This seems to fly in the face of that.

If you are willing to install more software, why not use a more feature filled file server?

Right! I should clarify that I'm only describing the big management consulting firms that most everyone has heard of. I should have wrote "management" before each time I wrote" consultant" but I didn't want to be repetitive and hoped it would be clear from the context.

Independent consultants are an entirely different group and behave very differently.
Not this again. DJB's idea doesn't work but people don't realize that because it's presented in such a vague way.

Then the problem is: “You’re leaking your Apple ID to everyone in your contact list!” or more, depending on how exactly they’d plan to distribute Apple IDs to everybody else. The hash of the phone number thing is to provide the “contacts only” airdrop thing.
I thought Google make Pokemon Go as a human control experiment. Interesting.
Facebook is only establishing an alternative currency, which major banks will be participating in if it gets off the ground.

Libra is not a threat as long as Facebook plays well with regulators and various nations’ tax offices. In addition, Libra will be run by a spin-off company, not directly by Facebook.

Apple is potentially going to cut EMV out of the loop.
This should also be affecting coal plants, since they also need to exhaust heat via an identical mechanism. Yet the article only mentions nuclear.
But you are assuming that the end goal of the company and purpose of buying the stock is to participate in "earnings" in the form of dividends.

But that is no longer the MO of many public companies now.

The goal appears to just eternally grow the stock price and allow share holders to cash out in the form of appreciated shares which get a preferable capital gains tax treatment.

Occasional earnings are just there to prove to the market that you could make money if you wanted to. Amazon has never paid dividends and probably never will unless their shareholders are able to convince them otherwise.

To take it even further, there are additional tax advantages to capital appreciation for the wealthy that hold Amazon stock. They can even choose not to sell appreciated stock but instead get low interest loans using their stock as collateral.

Buy stock - let it appreciate - increase your line of credit - live off the borrowed money that has a lower interest rate than the stock price growth rate - continue until death - let estate sell the stock and take a one time tax hit.
Not saying it's insignificant, just saying it doesn't change the conclusion.
That's because you need literally days to get a nuclear plant running again. Coal plants can start within hours.

But do you have numbers on how it's affecting coal plants? Maybe coal plants don't need so much cooling?
There might actually be 0 people who go from staff engineer to entry level manager in most companies. They go from engineer or maybe senior engineer.
Renutra Pro Review
Your lean mass includes muscle, bone and organs. Weight bearing activity stimulates muscle growth and stimulates an increase in bone density. These two things can easily cause significant weight gain within the first couple of months. This is where it is important to have a look at girth measurements and body fat. Muscle is heavier and denser than fat and as more muscle is stimulated, the body's ability to burn fat increases, which sometimes results in a loss of inches with an overall gain of weight.

It would, except the tapped market is 30+11+8 billion dollars today, and honestly do you doubt that the market is anything less than hundreds of billions? There are a lot of companies out there who should focus on their business model and not be in the DC-running-business.

Also, Google, Amazon and Microsoft don't need your funding, thank you. They're very profitable already.
Salaries plateau on both tracks until you get up to the very high levels. RSUs are really the only way to get compensation that keeps growing.

OpenSSH is very much tied to system users, but sometimes you might want to give access to external users that don’t need to exist as actual unix users.

because SSH and SFTP are so closely tied together, a configuration via PAM is pretty hard and inconvenient because creating fake users via PAM for SFTP will also create them for SSH and because there’s no easy way to map all such virtual users to the same user-id. Also, because OpenSSH has zero support for virtual users, aside of a PAM configuration, you also need an NSS configuration and now all your virtual users in some database have suddenly become system users on your box.

SFTP as a protocol on the other hand is very convenient over, say FTP over TLS because it’s using a single TCP port and it has been created this century.

So having this self-contained project is useful when you need to allow third parties access to files but you also don’t want to create system users for them or risk f’ing something up with PAM
What do you recommend?

Proftpd?

A lot of more advanced servers are either (1) proprietary (2) unmaintained (3) hard to use (4) require a Linux VM or all of the above.
To be fair, it is written in Go - a language where a lot of projects built can just be single, portable binaries with no dependencies (as this project appears to be).
AirDrop has to send out a hash of you so that way the surrounding devices that are set to "contacts only" can use it to determine if you're in their contacts list (and therefore that it should respond).

I'm not sure why WiFi has to send a hash of your phone number, I thought it just prompted nearby devices to ask if they wanted to share it. Maybe there is some functionality there relating to determining if the sender is in your address book, I'm not sure.
I wonder if a CO2 tax would fix that, too...
Meanwhile I was absolutely thrilled they made this change. I can't count the number of times I realized WiFi was off because I had temporarily disabled it earlier as I stood just on the edge of my network's range and forgotten to re-enable it again.
Power plants are designed are designed to take useful energy by transmitting heat between something hot and something cold. They can be designed to work for any condition of "cold" and a few degrees doesn't change the ability to design.

Problem was these plants were designed for an amount and kind of heat sink which wasn't there for a while. If it became a frequent problem it would be fixed by building alternative heat sinks that worked in more situations.

Water cooled reactors run at about 300C, molten salt around 700C or "much higher", and some designs for gas cooled reactors go over 1000C. The weather being a few degrees hotter or even tens of degrees hotter isn't really going to matter if your cooling system is designed to handle it.

The minimum temperature gap up there is > 250 degrees, taking a few away isn't going to make anything impossible, but it might make some existing plants increasingly unreliable if there are no investments in new plants or upgrades.
Interesting, so it's really just a means of smoothing then? Do all three use run rate as their key metric then?
Except it's not "here is my phone number", it's "if you know my phone number you can tell it's me".
Random specifically doesn't mean it's less likely to be the last choice you picked. At least if we're talking uniform random which we should be here. It means the last choice you picked is exactly as likely as any other choice.
This is a great comment. Thanks.

McKinsey and such, I expect.
I think this is a non-problem. At least for France and Germany, peak electricity consumption is in winter, because electric heating is much more common (and needed!) than air conditioning. This seasonal surplus is such that nuclear power plants actually have to reduce their power output in summer. Here is a chart showing a ±30% seasonal variation in nuclear electricity production: https://jancovici.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/elec-mensue...
That's up for debate. Of the revenues that are reported under Amazon retail, a significant portion (some estimates say way more than half) are fees collected from 3rd party sellers using both the online platform and physical warehousing services.

I would argue that portion of their retail revenue is much closer to tech than retail, considering the margins are comparable to tech companies.

If you made random moves in a game of chess or checkers you'd get beat by a four year old with the barest grasp of the rules. In fact I would love to see a chess-playing robot that actually does that, it would thrill the crap out of my nephews to beat the big bad robot in a game of wits.

I'm unaware of the name of the property that RPS exhibits that makes it ungameable by a random opponent (zero-sum?) but ordinary RPS played by humans certainly doesn't exhibit it, only in the magic world of computers where things like simultaneity of play can be guaranteed does RPS exhibit that property.

If played in the real world like real humans traditionally played it, ongoing RPS matches between a human and an AI would soon see the AI dominating. I'd be very curious to see what real-world RPS would look like between two AIs that can 'explain their model'.

Imagine making a rule that gives a Xms window for making plays. Then strategy can start to emerge.
I'm unfamiliar with AirDrop, but is there any reason it _has_ to work with phone numbers? Would sending nonce+hash(AppleID+nonce) work? I suspect an email address would have significantly more entropy than a phone number (36^6 * 4 ~= 10^10, so six alphanumerics plus four common email domains has about the same entropy (assuming random distribution-you could make better guesses)).

One downside is that it may be make targeted attacks easier (if you can guess the approximate form of someone's email address, you can easily confirm it), but that doesn't seem like much of a leak if you can already guess sufficiently closely. Sending hash(nonce+AppleID+phone number) might be an option, but that feels more limiting.
But they are created at the will of the people, who live in those cities. They can't afford these rules to be broken - they will literally lose their life savings, their retirement, everything, if the housing cost drops. They would vote for everyone who promises to do exactly one thing: prevent any new residential construction around, and prevent (meaningful) mass transit from being built. Because both things depress their home values.

No other way around it except destroying democracy (or hollowing it out, when you vote but it doesn't matter, Putinist style), or destroying capitalism.

These things are just healthy signs that both capitalism and democracy actually work in your place, and are not fakes.
Very interesting. I don't understand all the terms in those pics, but I'm taller than their median respondent and heavier (BMI ~34), so that's probably what it is. Just doing a lot of hiking, walking upstairs to the apartment, etc is "deadlift training" if you weigh enough.
You also have to account for the incidents that customers face that don't show up in the status dashboard until a certain influx of support tickets raise the flag.

For example, right now we're facing an issue where one of our GCP HTTPS load balancers is suddenly failing to connect to any backend service for reasons unknown. Not sure if there was any correlation to the eight reported service disruptions on the status dashboard.

I learned about this while in school in the southern US. I doubt it's a case of 'US history books choos[ing] to leave out' and more a case of US students failing to recall details that have little/no impact on current events (unless you confuse rhetoric with current events, I guess)
