Analog constraints are much different than digital ones. If you're expecting to do anything on the 18MHz range you wouldn't be looking at this product.

But in practice I'd doubt you would be using it for anything > 100kHz, maybe 1MHz. Which is absolutely fine for most applications this is intended.

If you're really targeting anything analog > 1MHz you really should know what you're getting into, and you wouldn't be looking at a board like this.

I wonder if that's true though. I don't have a medicine background but I'm loosely following this development. I think the term drug resistance became popular with all these tuberculosis cases. What happened was that people got TB, they went to the doctor and got medicine. Then things got better and people felt healthy again so they stopped taking their medicine. BUT in reality they were supposed to take it for a longer period of time and then TB broke out again. And thus becoming drug resistant.

Drugs have different effects on different people. This is why mental health is important. We all need to take it seriously rather than entertaining the idea as we have in recent years as something secondary to physical health.
A record of mental health for each individual will allow doctors to make informed decisions when prescribing a drug or not.

That's why psychedelics must be regulated and the dosage controlled to observe the effects on the individual. Anecdotes of illegal use/misuse are not useful in determining the common effects of said drug and the general benefits/side-effects.
At the time those cards came out I was very skeptical about their safety (and of course have been called paranoid/excessive/etc. by everyone).

After all I wasn't that much off, my theory was that anyone in a crowded environment (bus, train, etc.) could get a "payment" by simply being "near" the card (be it in a wallet , in your pocket or in a bag).

The objection was that there were much more sophisticated controls by Visa on the "other side" (reputability of the account where the money would go, etc. ) and that the sheer number of micro-payments needed to make the theft profitable (and thus the number of complains) would have easily triggered off the various automated alarms.

But if someone can obtain a Visa/bank account and credit it with a small number of (delinquent) transactions each of relatively high amount, get the money and close the account in a short time it can probably become viable.
This post reminded me that Perl doesn’t even have a concept of a method signature, even so much as showing the number of arguments. You have to look at the next few lines to hopefully see all the `... = shift;` lines to see what you’re actually supposed to send.

I mean, a lack of type annotations is normal for a scripting language, but Perl always seemed to go a bit far by not even having a standard way of showing parameter names.

I remember doing `my ($arg1, $arg2) = @_;` or something similar, but even that felt weird, and not everyone adopted that convention.
The alien abduction insurance was clearly described as a gag gift.
Like TL;DRs on Reddit! Interesting, I think I'll incorporate this concept for my long emails, thanks for sharing.
Not a bug, but let's say a "shortcoming". EJBCA felt they'd clearly documented what this did, their users not so much.

And the defence against this stuff is curiosity - which is internal process. If you issue lots of certificates (say, more than a dozen) and you find that the "64-bit" integers in them actually only vary in 63 bits you ought to be suspicious. If Actalis (or other CAs) had declared "Hi, we found out about this after two weeks when we looked at our serial numbers more closely" instead of waiting for the problem with EJBCA to get called out explicitly I'd have _way_ more sympathy.

Likewise if you're sure you are implementing 3.2.2.4.6 Agreed‐Upon Change to Website, curiosity would suggest it's worth taking a look at some of those agreed upon changes and how they were verified, and how some failed. No failures at all? Well that's weird, let's look more closely - oh, we're counting 404 errors as success. Oops. (Yes a real public CA did this and in their case they did find it before someone else reported it).
Many places offer interest-free deferred payment. For example, Design Within Reach, through Synchrony Bank, lets you pay in equal installments over 24 months (or less, if you want) [1]. APR around 20% kicks in if you go past the time limit.

The unit gain (for an OpAmp at least) is related to the bandwidth, the gain decreases linearly (in the dB scale) as the frequency goes up.

You want to be looking at the -3dB range to know +/- the actual useful bandwidth
The comments below the article outline a few reasons. Overcompression of the cables, difficulty making changes later, etc.

Cable ties and velcro wraps seem to make more sense.
TV networks sue nonprofit to kill free TV service
Likely same reason as many, many other things: the modern 'automated' version (tie wraps usually) is easier, cheaper, faster. And has the standard consequences which unfortunately get ignored: requires close to no skill, plastic, seldom reusable, probably won't get recycled and ends up as waste eventually. Lacing has some of those disadvantages as well though.
I've used an almost identical method, but never knew this had a name, or such a neat mnemonic!
I have to admit that until seeing this example, I thought that code commented this way did not actually exist, and that the possibility of it was just a straw man invented for the sake of argument!

Well a VISA card has usually a (daily or monthly or both) drawing/spending limit, the monthly usually being AFAIK in the 1,500-5,000 US$ or Euro range.

This is exactly the same reason that they stopped updating Microsoft DOS -- they achieved perfection. That or it become obsolete. I guess it depends on to what degree one is nostalgic and to what degree one needs to keep their skills up to date.
The Knights Templar have a greater mystique since they were suppressed, and revived only by fiction writers from Umberto Eco to Dan Brown; but to me the Knights Hospitaller are in some ways more impressive for managing to hang on to their state-without-a-country status for so long as the
Sovereign Military Order of Malta. They even had a substantial air force at one point as part of a scheme to circumvent treaty restrictions on Italy.
Consuming copious amounts of anything with a high carb/calorie load can make you fat. Barley, sweet potatos, cookies, etc. If your point is that eating a lot can cause your body to store energy then well done.

At some point when I need to “structure an email” usually that’s a red flag to me that I should format it as a report in an attached document (which can be more detailed) then make the email a handful of sentences describing the attached report.
No per year per person. The NHS prescribes it long term for various high risk groups.

$6000 for a 'one off' course of treatment sounds very expensive.
They do have a say, they just value keeping their jobs more than doing the right thing. That isn't ridiculous, but they need to stop blaming everyone else (who are essentially doing the same thing) for the problem as though they aren't contributing.

A bank isn't an individual who is lending his own money. It is an organization that lends other people's money and needs a veneer of justifications for the choices they make, and credit reporting agencies are a perfect choice. You mentioned earlier that banks have statistical teams making these analyses, but most simply don't because that provides counter-information that undermines the whole value of credit reporting agencies (which is that they outsource the politically fraught choices and makes it easy to say "well we just followed their ratings, just like everyone else").

Regarding the subprime crisis, the biggest victims were the largest banks -- the most sophisticated being put completely out of business -- so not sure what the bit about pension plans comes from (many of those made a lot of money on it).

It's not even that though - with the 5p charge and them not being the default, I've stopped using them in instances where I wouldn't have needed them, but would have taken them anyway.

I'd always get a plastic bag with my £3 meal-deal from Tesco, but since it came in, I've just carried the stuff.

Haven't delved into the numbers yet, but am assuming they don't take into account recycled cotton, or if they're upcycled from other products. As for non-cotton alternatives - heavy duty plastic bags (i.e. Ikea ones or "bag for life"), rucksacks or handbags, re-used boxes, personal trolleys, etc... there are dozens of alternatives to single use plastics.

We still do get single use plastics for meat sales, and I reuse them as my bathroom bin-liners, so still have double duty without the dozens of other pointless plastic bags per trip

Perl is good for a competent coder who doesn't work as a developer,
occasionally has a one-off coding task, and wants to incorporate a
code excerpt from the web and immediately execute it (and then throw
the code away). Languages with whitespace as syntax often fail the
"immediately execute" requirement.
No that's not a correct summary either. The part about faster and more power-efficient is incorrect.
Never heard of this here in Germany.

Also "cc" is rarely used where I worked and was mostly then used to inform the people in cc about the issue, they aren't required to do something.
There are examples where subscriptions work perfectly well. Is the model perfect? No.

Podcast hosts are biased either way. Ads waste people's time while a subscription doesn't. The subscriber amount is inflated, and the quality of content is lower than it could be because of clickbait and other non-content.

One subscription-based model for news I'm looking forward to gaining adoption is essentially a Spotify for news, called Blendle. I also believe we focus too much on news, and not enough on in depth articles which is a model De Correspondent pursues.

> It has been estimated that the average lifetime cost to the NHS for a person living with HIV is £360,000. Around two thirds (68%) of these costs were for anti-HIV drugs. The cost of a year’s HIV treatment is about £11,000 and of PrEP £5,000. The NHS obtains Truvada at a cost of £3,000–£4000 per person per year. People need to take HIV treatment for the rest of their lives but PrEP will generally be needed for a much shorter period. It is believed that the patent for one of the key drugs in Truvada, Tenofovir, expires in 2017, slashing the cost of the drug from this time. There has been a collective call on Gilead, from those involved in PrEP activism, to lower the price of Truvada for use in PrEP, as there are concerns that PrEP may not be deemed to be affordable.

The Faq says "If your data doesn’t have graph structure, i.e., there’s only one predicate, then any graph database might not be a good fit for you."

I know what a predicate is, but I don't understand how it is being used here. Can someone explain how I can determine if my data has a graph structure? What sort of predicate do we have here?

The thing that I always find frustrating about using spreadsheets (well, Excel) is that it's difficult to prevent unwanted invisible characters and automatic type/format changes from wreaking havoc. I generally resort to exporting to text and using regular expressions to clean spreadsheets that I'm given.

$16 is still a lot more than we're each going to get from the $31 million. Millions of people have signed up, which means we might get a buck or two each if we're lucky.

Definitely agree with you on the weather. At least in the tropical part of Asia it is either too hot, too humid or too dark. Personally I am not sure about Eastern Europe long term, it seems to be going the wrong way politically. Which is just a bother.

There seems to be an inverse (I guess pretty unsurprising) relationship between being decent and being cheap. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be 1 to 1. But almost everywhere attractive in Europe is now very expensive. Cities like Berlin, or even Lisbon, are pricing themselves out of the race. The US doesn't seem to be worth it anymore overall for Europeans.

So what I have managed to find on paper is Slovenia which supposedly has low taxes and decent quality of life but is tiny, relatively inaccessible and still a bit expensive. Another option seems to be something like a second tier city of a bigger country. Like Porto, Valencia and Montpellier and maybe Hamburg.

What sort of surprises me is that I haven't really been able to find any, at least not European, city which seem to want to attract people based on quality of life. All these "next silicon valley" type statements always only talks about things that largely doesn't matter. Not how to live there for 1 week, 1 month or 1 year. Have you noticed any city, or even region, doing better in this regard?
Secretly Public Domain
The difference here is one bit. The BRs say you must use at least 64-bits of entropy, EJBCA out of the box used 63-bits. A bad guy might need to spend say $40 trillion to make a bogus cert instead of $80 trillion. No bad guys have $40 trillion so it's irrelevant. And that would be if we were still using SHA-1 (which is broken, and so the entropy is all that would keep you safe against collision attacks) but in fact Actalis and other CAs are only issuing with SHA-256 which isn't broken.

This is a Brown M&M ‡. It doesn't actually matter in terms of security, 63-bits, 65-bits, it's never going to make a real difference. But we wrote 64-bits in those rules, if we can't trust you to obey that rule, who says you got the really important parts right?

‡ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/brown-out/
I think Actalis found itself between a very hard rock and an even harder place.
I am italian and I have worked with some public entities similar to the ones Actalis provided certificates to.
There is a private network "SPC" of public italian organizations, with many machine-to-machine HTTPS web services that MUST by law provide updates to the central government with quite strict deadlines.

On such networks, certificate pinning is very common and possibly even recommended, contrary to the "Basic Requirements" and recommendations of CAs.

Failing to respect such deadlines causes penalties to the local governments, and in grave cases may even be a crime: "public service interruption" which would initiate a trial, with more fines and possibly jail time.

Thus Actalis had to choose between:

1. follow the CAs "Basic Requirements" that force CAs to quickly revoke certificates when a problem is discovered. Then most of the certificates would be revoked before the public customers managed to replace them - disrupting their operativity, risking penalties for the missed deadlines and possibly trial and jail time for "public service interruption". To avoid this, they would then need to demonstrate in a public trial that the public customers were well informed that certificates could be revoked and re-issued at any time with very short warning time, and they did everything they could to avoid the "public service interruption", both pre-emptively (when negotiating the sell of certificates and educating the customers) and re-actively (when the serial numbers vulnerability was discovered). Quite a hard path.

2. contact the customers, push them to quickly replace the compromised certificates, and revoke them only afterwards, thus avoiding service disruptions.

They chose 2. Unluckily italian public organizations are very slow, which in the end caused Actalis to miss their BR deadlines by a long shot.

What company do you work for that makes more money by causing your app to load twice as slow? I think it's reasonable to expect a developer to measure and present the correlation between performance and revenue.
Leave a Pet in a Hot Car in New York, Expect a Broken Window
I kind of feel for Actalis. It seems like they were caught between a rock and a hard place seeing as their customers were not/could not respond as quickly as hoped and revoking the certs could negatively impact end-users by preventing them from for example obtaining prescriptions etc. The language is dense for me but it also sounded like there was a reasonable explanation in the BR for the exception (paraphrasing: ‘negatively impacting a large swath of internet users’) but it didn’t seem to assuage the concern of Ryan. I hope the Actalis guy didn’t lose his job.

That was the point they were making, that you can write horribly ugly code in Python if you really put a lot of effort into it, and that you can kinda sorta write readable Perl if you put a lot of effort into it.

I usually do

sub mymethod($$)
my ($arg1, $arg2) = @_;
}

Apart from on the smallest programs. So it does have a method signature (obv it's an untyped language)

There are shortcuts (just like you could write "doSometing() unless $var;"). Perl does give you options.

Python has different options for passing methods - passing variables, passing a dict,

P.S. while looking at python method declartions, you can send variables, a key-value, multiple keyvalue, and then there's this: https://stackoverflow.com/a/16785702

Which comes out with

f = lambda **dic: ' '.join(dic.get(key, 'None') for key in 'abc')

Which is no more or less readable than the most confusing perl I've ever encountered.

"Cool Shortcuts" are a problem in any language. There are values in anonymous functions on occasion (especially in sorts), there should be a very compelling reason to do so.
If it's just regular language in most contexts, I agree.

But for technical communication where you're using names of things that have a controlled vocabulary, it's really helpful to put those words in a bold mono-space font. Otherwise, you end up using quotes too much and that gets tiresome.

I used to work for organizations that used BI software like Qlikview and SSRS.

If I'm understanding correctly, t34543 was treated with PEP rather than PrEP; even with a relatively expensive drug combination (Truvada/raltegravir) this should cost about £850 at NHS tariff prices.

PrEP should be really cheap (~£10/mo) but the generic status of Truvada (emtricitabine and tenofovir) is being held up by legal shenanigans, so the NHS tariff price is currently £355.73/mo for the branded formulation. This has obviously severely constrained availability on the NHS, so a lot of at-risk individuals are just buying the generic online.
