The research that shows persistent Lyme is real is piling up but the medical community seems slow to accept this fact.

Persistent Borrelia Infection in Patients with Ongoing Symptoms of Lyme Disease: "Using multiple corroborative detection methods, we showed that patients with persistent Lyme disease symptoms may have ongoing spirochetal infection despite antibiotic treatment, similar to findings in non-human primates. The optimal treatment for persistent Borrelia infection remains to be determined."
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29662016

The Emerging Role of Microbial Biofilm in Lyme Neuroborreliosis: "The early treatment with oral antimicrobials is effective in the majority of patients with LNB. Nevertheless, persistent forms of LNB are relatively common, despite targeted antibiotic therapy. It has been observed that the antibiotic resistance and the reoccurrence of Lyme disease are associated with biofilm-like aggregates in B. burgdorferi, B. afzelii, and B. garinii, both in vitro and in vivo, allowing Borrelia spp. to resist to adverse environmental conditions. Indeed, the increased tolerance to antibiotics described in the persisting forms of Borrelia spp., is strongly reminiscent of biofilm growing bacteria, suggesting a possible role of biofilm aggregates in the development of the different manifestations of Lyme disease including LNB."

Precision medicine: retrospective chart review and data analysis of 200 patients on dapsone combination therapy for chronic Lyme disease/post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome: part 1:
"We collected data from an online survey of 200 of our patients, which evaluated the efficacy of dapsone (diaminodiphenyl sulfone, ie, DDS) combined with other antibiotics and agents that disrupt biofilms for the treatment of chronic Lyme disease/post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome (PTLDS)."
...
Conclusion: DDS CT decreased eight major Lyme symptoms severity and improved treatment outcomes among patients with chronic Lyme disease/PTLDS and associated coinfections.":

Perhaps because pip already supports git repos:

Interestingly enough, the published work [1] has two self-citations. So maybe there's something to that phrase, “the next work cannot be carried on without referring to previous work.”

Chromium-vaapi probably works well enough for most users but that doesn't mean it's officially supported, there's a reason it's a separate package instead of in the mainline build (i.e. it's been up to merge multiple times and declined each). Even then >60 FPS display and HDR do not function on Linux (though that doesn't affect as many as the decoding/GPU acceleration issues).

It is definitely better than Firefox on Linux but that doesn't make it well supported.
I'm the target market, I suppose. I don't want to keep supporting Chrome because Google is too creepy. Firefox doesn't work for me on my laptops because the trackpad and touchscreen support is woeful. I have been using old Edge but that's discontinued (a real shame IMO). So Edge-ium really fits my needs.
Used qmail a lot and would use it again if modernised a bit.

Vpopmail was great, too for managing users, hope it'll still work.
You know what'd be really cool? For either Nix or Guix to transparently support installation of any version of any program without hacks like putting an alternate version under a different name or some such. I wish programs didn't require continued maintenance for dependency updates or risk being uninstallable without putting them and a number of dependencies under different package names. I wish I could install Firefox or Chrome from a decade ago as easily as I can install the latest versions.

I wonder if it'd be too crazy to add git-awareness to the Nix utils. Like tell nix to install version X of some package, so in the nixpkgs repo it would check the history of the corresponding file to find the commit where it last was that version, checkout that commit, build the package and its dependencies, and then return to the branch it was at.
The issue is how many researchers want to spend their time replicating the research of other people rather than doing their own original work. Getting funding is already incredibly hard, plus no-one is going to give you tenure or promote you for replicating the work of others.
IMHO, though, "an equivalence class of Cauchy sequences" is not the most intuitive representation of a real number. (A point on a line is; even Dedekind's cuts well-described in older editions of Baby Rudin are more intuitive.)
I remember seeing some of this type of stuff with the Xbox Kinect. It's cool that the form factor has moved to mobile (slowly swinging the Kinect around the room was not ideal). I'm not following this space but from the video it still looks like capturing good 3D models is a long way away. Being in a VR world that looks like that would be terrifying.
That does not guarantee it exists at the source repo though. You can’t create different content at that same hash, but you can rewrite history or delete the branch of that hash entirely and it will eventually be GCed away.
Teslas bursting into flames is a real risk though.
No, because it counts citations from influential papers with a higher weight.
Right. I get that.

My question was directed to the OP's last statement of "Plus these games don't really support IPv6," because that doesn't match my experience.

My argument is that IF Google's cloud offerings supported IPv6, why would that not matter with a game like Minecraft? I'm pretty sure it supports IPv6.
Pinterest: Building Real-Time Anomaly Detection [Intern]
There's a fair point there, which is that some computations may look hard simply because we picked a difficult representation, but I'm not sure that applies here.

There's finite, exact representation for 1/3 in whole numbers, namely itself, but as far as I know (?) there isn't one for sqrt(2) unless, say, your choice of representation is the root of some polynomial. Is there a bounded procedure that shows whether any two polynomials represent the same set of roots?

Getting back to the original etymological question, my point is that irrational in the sense of 'can't be reckoned, computed' is very close to how we would see it. The Greeks simply had a different conception of computation, one grounded in finitism and constructing things geometrically.
Relive the Horrors of the Early Internet with the Geocities Archive Project
These specific cases, no. But I used to work for a company that made solar components and fires were our biggest fear.

The most likely issue is incorrect design or installation due to the complications of DC power. This article goes into details https://iffmag.mdmpublishing.com/solar-panels-and-the-dc-dan...

Simply put DC power with enough current to power a home is much more dangerous than AC. And solar power isn't converted to AC until it gets to the inverter.

Meaning all the wiring and everything in the solar system has a ton of current going through it on a sunny day. If the system was designed incorrectly or installed incorrectly then there isn't going to be enough copper for that current to go through at some point and it's going to heat up and start a fire.

You can also have components fail and all that. But given they are blaming Solar City I'd bet on it being improper installation or inadequate design of the system for the load.
Is Tornado still relevant if you can use async for multiplexed IO?
A bit disappointing yes, but pip has had support for git repo's for many years. In requirements.txt:

So perhaps that's why, still would like to have a github hosted devpi
In honour of the days of crazy colour schemes, flashing images, tiled backgrounds and guest books, we have released the Geocities Archive Project at https://www.geocitiesarchive.org

Geocities was a free web hosting service that was launched in November of 1994. On a corporate whim, in 2009, Yahoo! shut down Geocities, which meant years of digital data was lost to the world. This equated to around 38 million user-created webpages, rich with family photos, fledgling business profiles, and pics that were sure to embarrass their creators many years on.

So what happened?
Geocities was acquired by Yahoo in January 1999 for $3.57 billion in Yahoo stock. Unfortunately, the new terms and conditions introduced by Yahoo! proved less than popular with the vast majority of users: Yahoo! stated that it now owned all content within Geocities. After trying to provide a more premium service by offering vanity urls, rumours began to surface during 2001 that Geocities would be closing. Yahoo! would go on to effectively destroy fifteen years of early internet history overnight as many users did not have the ability to make a copy of their website before it was taken offline.

On April 23, 2009, Geocities stopped allowing any new member registrations and announced that the United States version of Geocities would be shutting down on 26th of October 2009.

Good news!
So, with some tricky coding, and driven by the belief that this early internet history should not be lost on future generations, we have searched, indexed and made available for search over 40 million user created files.

We hope you're ready for an entertaining and nostalgic walk down memory lane.

If you don't read it too closely, it sounds like an advert for the very concept of doing activities away from Facebook, which made me chuckle.

“Exciting features include: Cycling through woods! Reading a story in a book made of paper! Now you can control what you see, do and think!”
That's because, guess what, sitting in an office all day sucks.
I agree with you that it's not hyperbolic to call that "propaganda". Just like I don't think it's hyperbolic to call punching someone in the face "violence". That doesn't mean I think punching someone in the face is the same thing as murder. They're both violent, but they're completely, fundamentally different.

The US mainstream media and the Chinese state media both engage in propaganda, but they're completely, fundamentally different.

I have my quibbles with that USA Today article (which I actually found quite biased, presenting the views of 3 different Hong Kong or Chinese government offices but just one single protestor viewpoint). I have quibbles with NYT and WP coverage of Hong Kong too. But fundamentally, they're written with good-faith intent to inform. Though I perceived a bias in USA Today's coverage, they still did report on the woman shot in the eye by Hong Kong police with a less-lethal round. Chinese state media, by contrast, is reporting that she was hit in the eye by a fellow protestor, and even claims that "Internet sources" say she's in charge of paying protestors to demonstrate: http://m.news.cctv.com/2019/08/12/ARTIZFDwhpv8u9PFBzzWbYhP19...

That's not good-faith intent to inform. That's bad-faith intent to deceive. That's completely, fundamentally different the kind of "propaganda" that US media engages in.
I proposed it on HN for HN, to mixed reviews. A common sentiment was “if you can hide the counts from yourself, why should you be permitted to hide them from me without my consent?”. Still, it looks like the world is catching up to my idea. Hooray :) I continue to hope HN braves the ire and tries it out some week.

Most Instagram influencers want you to know how awesome their body is. They want you to sign up for their fitness program or purchase (and envy) the latest fashion they are wearing.

If you don't follow their fitness program or purchase their fashion, you're polarized against them, right? Because their lifestyle is the one with millions of followers and likes, not yours.

Does that make sense?
Scientific American is another magazine like Quanta. A lot of exacting discussion of very little substance.
The first sentence is probably true, the second seems false.

"Results of experiments in human volunteers evaluated by researchers for the WHO report
(3) are in agreement with those in animal experiments and suggest the basic mechanism of the effects of water low in TDS (e.g. < 100 mg/L) on water and mineral homeostasis. Low-mineral water markedly: 1.) increased diuresis (almost by 20%, on average), body water volume, and serum sodium concentrations, 2.) decreased serum potassium concentration, and 3.) increased the
elimination of sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium and magnesium ions from the body"
ISPC, Halide and the unreleased Jai all have ways of doing this.
My friends at SolarCity never had to work 70h in a week before Tesla acquired them (nor work weekends installing solar panels on Musk mansion in L.A.)

So it might very well be the result of the same company and processes.
ISIS having a right to free speech is an interesting point.
Under current law and status they do until they incite violence. If ISIS spent all day tweet about kittens, they'd be in the clear; but obviously they don't.

> The axiom is simple, when the expressions of ones rights infringes on the same rights of others then it's not protected anymore.

I don't think the majority of people much less politicians understand what rights are nor how they might be infringed.
There's been a ton of humdrum about "infringe on these people but not these people". It turns into "everyone who disagrees with me is without honor" which is just disingenuous.

Politicians need some basic civics lessons or something.
What if we don't throw half of it away instead of eating it?
The anti-China fan fiction popping up on HN recently is truly bargain bin stuff.

The notion that there's no solution short of "mass murder" underestimates the sophistication of the Chinese Communist Party. This isn't 1989.
Maybe he should write a novel instead of the botnets.
This is cool. I have a related question. Can I make 3d models of my 5yr old kid and 3-d print robots that walk/talk like thme? Does current day technology even suffice for this? Or do I need to create 3d models now and then wait for a few years for technology to catch up?
seems unlikely that the issue would've risen to the level of walmart's board, so they might not have even heard about.
"Ignore advice" is not good advice. Even for startups. There are so many predictable ways that founders screw up. I, personally, have committed most of them. A few of them I avoided, or stopped doing soon enough to survive, and often it was with the help of good advice. YC gives good advice: Talk to your users. Build something people want. Run lean. Those are all great for people starting out. There is a lot of knowledge much more specialized that, contained in the collective wisdom of startup operators and investors. The challenge is to vet your sources, know which advice applies to your situation, and how to implement it. Nobody can teach you how to be a good judge of character. And nobody knows your startup well enough to decide for you which advice and how. But we can all learn from others who have gone through the ringer, whether it's PG, Michael Seibel, Naval, Lemkin or others.
> How alive is your backyard's soil? A lab would have to analyze it. It may or may not have the right minerals, depending on what you're trying to grow.

I brought in a lot of compost to "start" it, so who knows what is in there. Furthermore my home is recently purchased, and the previous owners did the land no benefits (unkept dogs in the lawn, terrible looking dirt, etc). However I'm working towards / practicing no dig, heavy mulching of both green and brown (both in beds and out of beds) to promote natural breakdown and soil improvements, and tumbler composting (to combat rodents).

I plan to soil test in a few years, once I've become more established. Right now I'm primarily concerned with establishing whatever is sustainable for me, and then measuring what I might need to tweak. We'll see how it goes, hah - I'm pretty new to all of this; and I have more yard than I (an indoor man) knows how to deal with :D

Disney-Sony Standoff Ends Marvel Studios Involvement in ‘Spider-Man’
The researchers are in Australia, where we have abundant coastal land that is not suitable for agriculture. Indeed there are many salt lake systems already being used for large scale salt production via sea water evaporation (https://www.riotinto.com/australia/dampier-salt-4644.aspx).

Should this type of technology scale out, some of these salt production operations might also be able to produce desalinated water either for domestic or industrial use (in the case it is still too brackish for drinking).
They do mention the 8b+ "GPT-2" model trained by nVidia. Which is their reference to megatron.
That's a fair point. Having reviewing policies that would call that out however could hopefully push back on the behavior.
Mingus – Financial Armor for the Underdogs
There are tons of financial calculators and budgeting platforms that will do the rote math of determining if you're on budget, spending too much, or not achieving your investment goals.

However, I have often had to create something on my own to help put a number on other potential problems like how not repairing my car, changing jobs, or moving across the state would affect my cash flow over time.

Mingus is my attempt to give users a tool that will help them calculate the cost of those decisions and fold these numbers into their financial plan for the next year.

My guess is that Mingus could very instrumental to those that haven't considered these factors and are a car repair, hospital visit, or other "bad day" away from having to use a high cost loan to bridge the hole in their budget.

I am using startup school and the landing page below to get information if users even want this problem solved. From the initial conversations I've had with a few potential users it seems more a behavioral problem that has to be solved than a technical one.

That said, I'm going to see where it takes me.

Please take a look at the landing page and send me any feedback that you have.

Thanks!

>The alternative of having a bureaucrat "simply judge quality"

The bureaucrat in this case would be another university professor working in the same field.
I feel bad for making you write all this out.

This is still not "get electrons from food and expel them with our breath", is it? We are not stocking up electrons in our bodies, using them somehow, then exhaling spent electrons.

What we are doing is taking in matter with a certain amount of chemical potential, putting out matter with less chemical potential, and capturing the difference. Electrons are intimately involved in this, but they're a bit of an implementation detail.
Will two close-by locations eg. just a meter apart have any part of the phrase in common?
SF had lots of great progressive ideas, but SF didn't always disrupt contemporary gender roles when it could've. I'm imagining girls who were interested in the stories, ideas, science, etc., and picking up on the discouraging gender role reinforcement.

> "is this what I'll seem like by the standards of a few decades in the future?"

One cultural improvement we hopefully have to look forward to: The more recent "Moana" (one of my favorite films) finally fixes the gender roles programming of the Disney princess stories, as far as I could tell, but it implicitly accepts classism. The child is wandering through her community, noting the people doing their various working class labor, accepting that's their predetermined roles in life, and agonizing that her birthright role of chief will prevent her from exploring.[1] Maybe someday we'll all tell her to go do her share of the coconut harvesting, and that she should demand to replace the monarchy with elected representatives. Then everyone will have some time to explore, if they want.

Yeah I have spent a long time fighting to get cmov into code that wants it.

The cmov1 case in your example ends up getting a cmov1 because the compiler was able to apply the cmov to the pointer rather than to the read value (essentially transforming it to `return (cond ? v1 : v2)->i`).

It's fragile though, if you change it a bit it stops working:

https://godbolt.org/z/hs71Jb

It isn't clear if it stops because the heuristics aren't in favor any more (you'd need 2 cmov-y things to handle the +1), or because the compiler no longer sees the transformation is possible at all.

gcc even fails if you add +1 to both sides which should be almost as simple as the original:

https://godbolt.org/z/y7PIcU

I have tried to use the "unconditionally deference" trick many times to convince a cmov, but it seems it doesn't always work because the compiler might re-optimize it back to only doing the read inside the branch/conditional, so later phases don't see the read as safe.
No, that doesn’t make sense.

Polarization is a fundamental disagreement on some issue or set of issues. People pick sides for whatever reason and they are unlikely to ever change their beliefs.

An influencer is just a marketer selling a personal brand for profit. It’s entirely different.
