The only reason they need to be monoclonal is for drug safety regulations. It's easier to estimate efficacy with a drug of known composition, and safety is much easier too because immune responses to different proteins are tricky to predict.

With a polyclonal, manufacturers would need to prove safety on every single antibody and guarantee composition of the mixture.
> He said 10% stronger (which I took to mean 10% more entropy), not 10% more time to crack.

Hence the problem?

Yes, measuring "strength" by "bits of entropy" is technically correct (the best kind of correct...).

It's also exponentially misleading... possibly the worst kind of misleading?

Just look at the question: "Is there even a reason to include special characters in passwords? They add 10% more to security...". I don't know about you, but to me doesn't really portray an understanding of the fact that it takes twenty-five times longer to crack such a password for merely 8 characters, not merely 10%.

Comodo has told me that they would give me a new certificate if I wanted. Unfortunately, tax complications in Kentucky mean the legal entity no longer exists. Feel free to replicate it, though :)

The definition of "mis-issuance" has some contention, but generally it means that the guidelines for issuing the certificate were violated (Baseline Requirements, EVGLs, etc). No guidelines/policies were violated for those certificates.
Yes but without the conversion to real money on the back end it doesn't fit perfectly into existing regulations. It's also partially that they've just not really been on the radar in a big way until the past couple years.

Most code is unreadable, but that doesn't mean there isn't beautiful code out there worth reading.

https://norvig.com/spell-correct.html is like poetry— or at least what I imagine poetry is like to people who like poetry.

Reading it changed the way I look at code, and inverted what I consider good code.

If it's not in a super high level language it probably won't be beautiful, at least not in the same way as Norvig's spelling corrector. For lower-level code, approaching it like a scientist, as OP suggests, may be right; I wouldn't give up on a reading group for sufficiently high-level code.

Wow. Great tech. Congratulations!

A few questions:

What's the typical amt of overhead due to the sdk on the app in terms of RAM, CPU, Network and how much does that translate to battery drain? What improvements, if any, are in the pipeline with regards to this?

How does the sdk behave in 2G environments? Is it built for billions [0]?

How did you ensure the sdk itself isn't causing issues given the myraid of functionality it supports? Interested in knowing how you built resiliency.

On the server side, how does the architecture look like in terms of storage, reporting, and collection of data from phones.

Thanks.

I wonder if the F/R graph has been pre-corrected against human perception?

It looks really flat -- and you'd ordinarily think that was good, but it turns out that humans don't have equally sensitive hearing at all frequencies. There are a range of curves from different studies, and most musical transducers pick one of those curves and try to emulate it in hardware, so that a smooth frequency sweep from low to high continues to sound equally loud.

Perhaps Valve is planning on adding that through digital equalization.
I'm curious: What approach, if any, would you take?

I'm sure you have an interesting prospective based on your experience working at MySQL-friendly shops, in addition to being an engineer at Tumblr once upon a time.
I don’t think that’s true. Some women like extremely assertive guys, but most don’t. Acting super insecure is a turn off, but acting super confident isn’t a turn on. The “be more confident!” advice that most guys have heard really means, “don’t act super nervous and insecure, just be yourself, even if you think you’re boring.”

And to all the guys thinking, “but if I’m just myself, nobody likes me.” Well, that’s probably not true (sounds insecure actually), but even if it is, that’s either a personal growth opportunity or a sign that they’ve been talking to the wrong women.

One thing I’ve noticed with the Tumblr migration, is that I’ve switched to hard core porn.

With Tumblr I had my lists of soft things where there was a lot left to imagine. Some of them are still online, proof they were supersoft. But I had to surf away and I can’t find mild ones. All because some überentity wants to sanitize and cleanse the world. And drove all the softporn to Instagram, where the everyday girl poses, which... is worse for the masses. And is less easy to browse.

If anything, closing Tumblr has driven my habits to way worse, and I’d bet we’re hundreds of thousands in this situation. As much for sanitizing society.
I would go further and say that many academics hide their banal or confused ideas behind overcomplex language. They learn to write that way by reading all those awfully written texts and imitating them. But Chomsky is not like that - he usually has something insightful to say expresses it plainly.

I get that you might want to know if it was supplied or if it is the default, and common lisp has a way to do that. It is very niche to need, thought.

That all said, I think this is just suffering the fate if anything with examples. I accept there are places where zero as false can be annoying.

However, it's a little unclear why TEN is a point of comparison to Ebola, as one is a transmissible disease and one is something that happens to unlucky people typically in response to common small-molecule drugs. I guess TEN sounds like a probable side effect of antiviral immune therapy, but it's not mentioned in the article. And it seems a little tricky to separate the side effects from the disease when dealing with hemorrhagic diseases in particular
Actually I meant "coroutines".

You create a main infinite loop in your application, in which you call all functions that are meant to perform activities that should be happening "at the same time", like for example taking ADC measurements, while updating a PID control algorithm, while waiting for the GPRS chip to connect to the internet; those would be their own function, called "protothread" if you use the Adam Dunkel's library, and they are going to run a number of blocking operations, waiting for some external hardware to do their thing.

Each one of those functions is converted into a Duff device by means of the macros provided by the Protothreads library.

Now each protothread function can express its own operations in a linear and very clear way, and yield execution to the other functions by just returning from the Duff device. When the main loop starts over, each of those functions will "resume" their operation at the point where they yielded during the last iteration.

The way I see it, this trick is much more than just loop unrolling; it provides a C developer with the same basic features that an async function would have in JS; and the yield points in the functions would be equivalent to the 'await' calls. This allows for very easy to read code, being able to follow the logic of each individual "thread" without much of the noise needed for taking care of the "coroutines" part. The next step (in the embedded world, at least) would be going the route of an RTOS, such as FreeRTOS, but I've managed well so far without it.

The adult content is what differentiated tumblr from other platforms, users came to tumblr for it and stayed to view other content. Remove it and those users decide it's not worth sticking around versus twitter/facebook/whatever. So while you don't lose as much content you do lose a proportionally larger percentage of users (50% seems to be cited). And once those users leave the creators of sfw content will start to move to other platforms.

Or in other words porn was free marketing and lead generation for tumblr. I somehow doubt a buyer will be willing to put in enough money to make up for it.

Singapore learning from Hong Kong in early years already surpassed it by miles by doing just that focusing on basic health, education and house and avoid letting it's people stay hostage to rich billionaires.

Protests are just symptoms of that simmering discontent with underlying house, education and healthcare problems. This cannot be resolved by relying on old ways in which Hong Kong got rich due to closed mainland China.

I mean, counting in entropy with the knowledge that the applied effects can be logarithmic is the standard way of discussing such matters. It's sort of the basis for the information theory that's underneath this type of work.

> Why would you need to do it every day?

Because people are talking about how it only takes a short time to recharge enough to offset one day's commute. That only works, though, if you charge every day. If you only charge weekly then you're stuck waiting to recover 200 miles' worth of charge at a time in preparation for the next week. If you're using a fast-charger near somewhere you need to be anyway for an hour or two every week, great. Otherwise that adds up to a lot of wasted time—and human time is the least renewable resource we have.

The way I'd build this, if I had to, is to a) terminate TLS at the proxy, b) use some an interior protocol (possibly TLS) between the client and the sensor, with the client telling the sensor a digest of (or perhaps the whole) EE certificate presented by the proxy.

This might look like a CONNECT if the proxy will permit it, though using HTTPS to talk to the proxy, not HTTP, naturally. Or it might look like a full-duplex POST to the sensor through the proxy, with TLS being spoken over that POST. If neither CONNECT nor full-duplex POST are options, I might try Websockets, and as a last resort, I'd split up the protocol into multiple POSTs, one for each round trip.

EDIT: At any rate, this sounds exactly like what CONNECT is for, and this covers your needs:

- The client trusts the proxy if it can authenticate it.

The proxy is an explicit client-side proxy, though
it's actually on the server-side, which might seem strange.

- The client trusts the device if it can authenticate it.

The proxy cares only to decide whether to route the
request.

- The proxy may need the client to authenticate to the
proxy -- there exist headers for this, and the client
could also use a user certificate in the TLS
connection to the proxy.

- The client may need to authenticate to the device,
which it can do in the TLS connection to the device
that runs over the outer CONNECT, with all existing
choices for authentication available.

The only strange thing is that historically client-side proxies are accessed w/o TLS, but you really need to use TLS here because the "client-side proxy" is actually far away, across the big bad Internet. That client-side proxies are usually talked to w/o TLS is really a bug.

EDIT: If you find that getting your client to use TLS to talk to the proxy is difficult, just think how much more difficult it is to implement a new protocol from scratch.
I was also going to speak about the descriptive and prescriptive approaches to languages, and then dropped my paragraphs because it was not clear to me whether OP acknowledged that singular they was a thing in English. I decided to consider that they effectively acknowledged singular they.

By taking a prescriptive approach (telling how people should speak English), maybe singular they can be deemed invalid in English… depending on who is prescribing the usage. But people taking a prescriptive approach do not agree between each others, and even if they did, they would never represent the wide, heterogeneous set of English-speaking people.

Case in point: they do not agree here, but the usage of singular they seems to be more and more recognized / recommended [1]. A descriptive approach will acknowledge a widespread use of anything, regardless of the reasons why things are used.

About politics and languages. Politics are constantly shaping the language. This is not new. It's part of the natural evolution of languages. Politics are not inherently bad neither. We don't have slaves anymore in most countries, thanks to "politics".

Actually, I find politics is actually too vague a word, and some people seem to invoke it as a bad thing, saying that we should focus on technical matters when their view opposes the view of people seeing something belonging to the status quo as an issue (which is a political stance in itself… and considering that technical matters and politics are opposed too, ironically).

You can't really reject an idea "because politics". You may either argue, or disagree respectfully, but there is no such thing as avoiding politics and remaining technical.

#1 - Solved might be a bit much, but mitigation is certainly possible. The matrix shows effectiveness, and the details below the matrix quite clearly explain and summarize the potency and mechanism of the effects.

#2 - They do have ratings of how “confident” or conclusive results are, as one of the columns of the matrix.

IMHO, the site steers away most of the time from making a “yeah you should take this” recommendation. It simply lists the effects and details about those effects of the supplements/ingredients on its site. You’ll notice some herbs/supplements have nearly no effects at all or extremely mild effects.

Whatever a reader infers from the page is up to the reader. I do not believe Examine is pushy at all about supplements nor overemphasizes their effectiveness. They just present the data that they have found on supplements, good or bad, and it is up to the reader to make a determination from that.

I think your last paragraph is just uncharitable. Some supplements are effective at certain things and putting that data out there is fine. Having a single place where one can gather very detailed and collected information on individual herbs and supplements is a useful resource regardless of the effectiveness of them. Just having the information is important. I see nowhere where they claim that supplements will always fix or cure problems nor do I think that they only survive because of such “attitudes”. They’ve even put out posts that push the idea that supplements are kind of a “last resort” or are mild in comparison to other life changes

Final Note - There are plenty of supplements I’ve avoided taking (after initially being interested in them) because of the data on Examine showed they were highly ineffective, and I thank them for having that data available.

So true. I think the idea that a newborn should be left on its own is pretty terrible. No 1-month-old is going to be able to logically determine that you're not going to show up for them. All they know is that something is wrong. Rock your kid to sleep. Love them. Once they get to the point where you can reason with them you can leave them alone, since then they know why you're doing it.
