It is interesting that the reproduced image seems rotated from the color image. Is that change an artifact of the algorithm or being NLOS, or is it the angle of the perspective (for lack of a better word since I'm not really sure how you would define your viewpoint) / a difference in where the color image was taken from the special sensor (i.e., you could place the normal camera in front of a mirror to have a similar perspective from the special sensor)...

"Fee"? "Dividend"? That's not a plan to stop and reverse climate change, that's a plan for financiers and capitalists to trade in the blame for continuing climate change.

No no, emissions need to be cut - for real. There need to be schedules and (tax-based) funding to help make this happen. And - an expropriation of intellectual property so that technologies developed to help this happen aren't controlled by any single company or cartel - or nation.
Working on and racing cars is a) expensive, and b) actually not as expensive as you might think, and totally within the salary of a modestly paid software engineer with many other financial obligations.

The outcome is going to be different if a chef uses an unusual ingredient to create an experience, vs a chain using that same ingredient to cut costs, because they have different incentives. The chain has an incentive to buy from the cheapest source, and using more of a filler ingredient can help them cut costs. These factors aren't relevant for a high-end restaurant where the cost of ingredients is less significant to the bottom line.
Why reminisce on old work emails? I can't think of anything less interesting...

But if you wanted to ex-filtrate that data (like some sort of spy) your best bet could be to connect to your email remotely via IMAP and replicate all the messages off site. This is probably much less traceable than physically copying data on your work computer...

As a hacker doing mostly odd jobs and remote volunteer work for not-for-profits, I'm often consumed by the idea of whether I'll be able to "put my name on the day" when the head hits the pillow.

I have had a regular 0900-1700 job before, and it was nice to have the external validation thing to fall back on, the time-card that proves you showed up at least, or the mere fact that you're holding the job etc.

> Define what “time well spent” means to you

This is a great piece of advice. One source of metrics I found helpful to abandon is educational mobile apps / web programs etc that involve any sort of gamification. For example, I wasn't enjoying learning Japanese during the times I was redoing a lesson I didn't need to redo simply in order to make the education app make a fanfare sound and tell me that I had achieved my "daily x out of x points" ... I think measuring in time spent and effort exerted is a lot healthier, even if its complete inability to be quantified can be extremely frustrating!

I havent actually written any ReasonML, but I once had to review some my former coworker wrote. Thats the extent of my ReasonML experience, so I dont have much of an opinion. However, I was surprised that the ReasonML code I looked at relied on impure functions. I like pure functions so that scares me off a bit from the OCaml as a whole.

Regarding static html/css, I havent done that either, so I dont know about it.

What's really crazy is that the cost of 1 month of a Peloton subscription is less than the cost of 2 spinning classes in a real-world spin studio.

If you spin enough, you actually do save money with a Peloton. $40/month + $2000/bike vs $30/class (in LA/NY/SF) results in a breakeven point of roughly 4 months if you spin every weekday, which many spin aficionados do.

Elm is not consensual but is definitely influential specially considering the small investment involved. From the top of my mind:

- TEA (the elm architecture) -> Redux

It's not a single axis of (dis-)advantage. A wealthy black person in America has economic advantages over a poor white student, yes. But the black student will have disadvantages based on their skin color that a white student wouldn't have. There are a lot of people advocating for entirely replacing race-based affirmative action with economic/wealth-based weighting but they're not mutually exclusive.
There's nothing tried and true about that method. Artists do it because they have to, and the overwhelming majority of them are unable to make a full-time career out of it, and either relegate art to a side-hustle or take full-time jobs adjacent to their art (like recording engineering or record production).

Physical and nonphysical are beside the point. The point is X influences Y does not mean Y is X.

My claim is that Y is not X.

You argue that X influences Y, therefore Y is X.

I provide a counter example that shows you cannot infer Y is X just because X influences Y. You need another premise to demonstrate from your example that Y is X.
The one-dimensional spectrum is not particularly useful here, the narrative at your link is more relevant; Reason has a Libertarian bias in story selection (which is relevant here because Libertarian and Right have opposite expected biases on prostitution), and, perhaps most relevantly, a High rating on factual content.

So, yes, that they are covering this story perfectly matches their expected ideological bias in story selection, but their covering it isn't, in and of itself, a reason to doubt the factual content of the story based on your own media-bias site.
Bikes are usually 20 - 35% off when the next years models come out, which e.g. is this week for Cannondale. You can easily get a carbon Synapse for less than 2K from almost any bike shop that sells them, or even REI. It’s an endurance bike, but for doing low cardio you wouldn’t necessarily want a race bike anyway.

At least in the US, trying to ride a bike outdoors in a lot of places is a good way to get yourself killed by a car. I've spent the last 5 years in NYC and SF (which are both very bike friendly). I bike rarely and pretty cautiously, but even so all of my closest calls with getting killed by a car have been on a bike.

Your first quote is a mis-representation of the last one - there is no solid clinical data on the treatment of chronic pain using opioids. That doesn't mean they are ineffective and there are plenty of anecdotal stories to suggest they are.

I am glad to see Bill Gates being more vocal about this. There has been an unrealistic optimism when it comes to how easy it is to find alternatives to what we are currently using.

What people forget is that things like plastic ever-present not because of some evil conspiracy by oil companies to push an inferior material on the market but because it's superior to all other materials we know of.

The problem isn't product innovation but fundamental science and we have had no new discoveries since oil to fundamentally change how we approach progress.

Having listened to a lot of pitches by claimed alternative to plastic it's been very obvious to me that we simply need improvements in fundamental science not just in technology. I.e we lack fundamentally new discoveries to truly change our ways.

Nanotech might help us some of the way but we are nowhere near the utopia a lot of people seem to be thinking.
For learning the basics about how an operating system works, I recommend Remzi and Andrea Arpaci-Dusseau's "Three Easy Pieces", which is freely available at http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~remzi/OSTEP/. Both Remzi and Andrea Arpaci-Dusseau are great writers and are prolific researchers in the areas of operating systems and file systems, and their work is top-notch.

For learning the basics about how the kernels of Unix-like systems are designed, I recommend the following books:

- The Design of the UNIX Operating System (1986) by Maurice Bach. You could also compare this book to the source code of Version 7 Unix, which is freely available under a BSD-style license. Many of the basic design principles of Unix-like operating systems have not changed dramatically over the years, and so studying the design and implementation of older, smaller implementations of Unix-like operating systems can aid with figuring out the code base of Linux, which is huge.

- UNIX Internals: The New Frontier (1996) by Uresh Vahalia. This discusses some more modern features that weren't part of AT&T Unix.

- The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System (2014) by Marshall Kirk McKusick et al. I've met "Kirk" in person a few times at USENIX FAST conferences; he's not only a great writer, but he is also very friendly and approachable. This is a well-written text describing FreeBSD 11, including modern features such as ZFS.

There are some good Linux kernel books (I'm partial to "Linux Kernel Development" by Robert Love, which helped me out nine years ago when I was writing a device-mapper device), but what I've found during my experience working with the Linux kernel is that the Linux kernel changes much faster than the books describing it get updated. Nevertheless, the best thing to do is to get a solid understanding of how Unix works, then get a basic understanding of the Linux kernel, then start diving into the source code, which is ultimately the definitive documentation of the Linux kernel.

When I was working on that device-mapper device, I found that perusing the Linux kernel mailing list was excellent for learning about how relevant portions of the kernel changed over time.

Good luck and have fun! I haven't done much kernel-level work lately, but I miss working at that level!

I feel like that's kind of the point. The answer is: you will never know. Of course it's easier said than done but I think in the long run it's much better to cherish the present instead of fearing the future. What if you suffer for years and even then the question does not disappear?

>It means you get 1/4 the resistive loss (in the wires) for the same power. So you can pass 4 times the power over the same wires if you want.

Wrong. P = VI and resistive losses are RI^2. For double voltage at the same power then yeah, R(I/2)^2 = 1/4 * RI^2. For double the voltage but 4 times the power then 4P = 2V(x*I) so x=2 and we square that so it's 4 times as much resistive losses. You can double the power if you double the voltage and keep the same resistive losses. The parent comment was right.

>It means you get 1/4 the resistive loss (in the wires) for the same power.

This is correct, but it scales with the square of the current, so you can't just extrapolate it linearly like that.

> additional violations of someone's privacy

I've agreed that flipping that surveillance preference flag is a type of violation, just of territory that has already been trodden on. It's like if someone breaks into your house while you're away, then a neighbor comes along to put a tarp over your window before it rains, and you're complaining that the neighbor has trespassed. In a sense you'd be technically correct, but most people would consider that action to have been reasonable.

There is also the aspect where someone leaving this preference flag unmaintained is contributing to a larger attractive nuisance.

> why would you applaud someone doing something that you wouldn't do yourself?

Because I simply wouldn't want to take on the legal risk.

Why would you even do that? I don't get the purpose of that. The email backups are worthless at that point--you can't reference them later, you'd have no reason to refer to them later, and backing up emails for a previous employer isn't your responsibility.
The regulations that Uber and Airbnb violated were in a grey area. In addition, the violations were largely supported by the general public. The generous spirit of the regulations on taxis where to protect the general public. Uber were for the most part just as safe as taxis. The not so generous reasons for taxi regulations was to increase the income of taxi companies. In many ways, Uber and Airbnb had the moral high ground of forcing governments to remove regulations that benefit a select few at the expense of the general public.

Doctors have to study to become doctors and then they practice medicine every day. I expect, if someone has a reliable intuition about how things like cholesterol work out in practice, that's a doctor who has to treat patients every day.

In fact, in this particular kind of knowledge (of how test results correlate with various outcomes) I would trust a doctor's intuition, formed by long experience, more than I'd trust data and research results.

Kind of nonplussed that you'd diss doctors as "the guy I see when I need antibiotics or to get a mole checked out". Do you really think what doctors do is so simple?

Also. just tried qemu on arch and there definitely wasn't 124mb of data transferred. (Total download size: 7.85mb) so this can vary heavily depending on which deps you have pre-installed for something elsewhere.
