"Nearly one in 10 married couples in Hong Kong are not living with their spouses."

In the US the figure is 7 percent so it's not unusual for couples to live apart. I'm curious if the embedded study written in Chinese accounts for this.

And if stock price is directly correlated with profitability again how does that relate to Uber and Lyft?

Alternatively, how does that explain Microsoft under Ballmer? Revenues and profits went up dramatically during his tenure but the stock price stagnated for years.

If stock price was directly correlated to profitability or business viability, Apple wouldn’t have such a low multiple compared to some of other tech darlings.
Are you saying they didn't want to burden a mother with an awful job?
I had a wasp manage to get inside my home a few months back. I went up to take a quick look (it was hovering around my ceiling fan). I was too lazy to care that much, and figured I'd go get some spray after finishing a TV show. After sitting back to watch, I looked back and was surprised to see the wasp dive bombing towards me. I have no idea what I did to provoke that aggression, I had gotten closer previously, but still remained a sage distance

It's not just the WHO. The same arguments apply equally to e.g. the FDA who played a similar role in this by rubber stamping the drugs. And similarly it also doesn't just end at the FDA as there are numerous smaller level regulatory agencies and operators involved on the medical side. Even non-regulatory agencies, such as the American Medical Association also showed themselves to be somewhat useless by decisions such as choosing to play into lobbying for consideration of pain as a vital sign.

The same is even true of things such as the FAA and the aviation industry where there were analogous issues. All of this is emphasizing that these organizations, which can be quite the burden on 'good players', are ultimately ineffective at restraining bad players which (I suppose depending on your philosophical view) should be their primary purview.

I just switched two months ago. Been an Android users since 3.x days.

I switched mostly for privacy reasons as as well. The original idea of why I liked Android: open source / Linux based, I developed apps for it, are not as important as giving too much control and my data to Google at this point.

Been pretty happy with it as a new user. At first it was hard getting used to not having a back button where I expected it but after a few days got used to it.

I like that there is an Apple store I can go to.

The interface is slick and nice, however, I'd have have to say in recent years Android mostly caught up in that regard.

But most of all, I like that Apple's primary business is not selling my info so I am happy to pay a premium to have a bit more privacy.
>> Yet you create suffering throughout the world every day

I did not create a worm which bores into the eyes of children and blinds them, en masse, and has done so for millions of years. I'm sure my actions have had negative consequences, but I'm not an omnipotent creator, nor am I arguing that I am perfect and benevolent.

> Consider that this may be unavoidable, and perhaps even necessary. We don't know for what purpose creation exists, do we?

It would appear that it exists in order for such a god to torment and destroy its creations. You're making my argument for me there - a god that invents these forms of suffering is clearly not a benevolent god, and may have all sorts of other motives.

>> And yet, even though it is completely within our power to prevent children from being blinded by parasites, we do not. But hey, it's god's fault, right?

The one does not preclude the other - we can be bastards for not fixing it and god can be a bigger bastard for inventing it in the first place and letting it and its kin run rampant for millions of years.

>> I suppose that's easier than accepting

Oh please, this is another line of argument I am absolutely not making "God is awful therefore we are perfect", where did I lead you to think that I was making such a bizarre argument?
You make a good point: There surely is a difference between someone like Donald Knuth writing a book that is relatively niche, and a best-seller. For one, I can imagine that a page of mathematics requires more expertise and time to write than a page of fiction.

However, there are dozens of free e-books on the web, written by respectable and knowledgeable professors, and this tells me that the only real cost involved is the effort of writing itself. The distribution and marketing cost for an e-book like 'Concrete mathematics' should be nearly zero. Unless my €80 goes directly to the authors, I'm wasting money. This is defendable for a physical book, but not for an e-book.

Well let’s be realistic, it said nearby scooters. Not “unlock scooters.”

There is the completely valid use case of a scooter that isn’t able to send it’s location to the app yet is close by to you. So it can be found with Bluetooth.

That isn’t to say that the app is isn’t tracking where you go, it doesn’t need the Bluetooth connection to its scooters because you need to turn GPS on to find the scooters.
You dragged morality into this when you talked about "character" instead of saying exactly what you meant. :)
I believe the question implied "reason" being something more specific like mortgage-backed securities or a tech bubble, not something generic.

Also, the submission was previously titled something like, "Banks are cozying up to the same types of mortgage bonds as the ones from 2008."
Had a Nokia 7 Plus for the same reasons, but unfortunately some other hardware issues meant that it only lasted a year and a half, then the USB port stopped working. Seems to be a common issue.

Switched to a Pixel 3a XL after that, which is kind of disappointing since it's a very similar phone for a higher price (and without microSD unfortunately), but there really aren't a whole lot of options for headphone jacked phones these days, especially once you start adding in other requirements like good battery and stock Android.

"Nokia"/HMD have promise, it was mostly a great phone but with some significant issues, I'll be holding out on buying another of their phones until they've improved their quality control.

> They are - or were at one point - all backed by SoftBank’s Vision Fund, an enormous venture capital fund run by Softbank, a Japanese holding company.

If many of these startups might not have reached IPO without the investments by Softbank, then maybe they don't have such a good business model after all? At least, that's my first thought after thinking what Uber and WeWork have in common.
> Global stability has been worsening with the decline of American power.

Has it really been though? At the height of American power during the cold war there were pretty much constantly regime changes and civil wars backed by the US. The instability of the era was intense for people living in these places, but because it was orchestrated in the name of furthering American interests it created a kind of "Global stability" in the eyes of the west. A perfect example of this might be someone like Pinochet or Suharto, whose regimes were the result of violent coups, and who committed politicide domestically, but were "stable" from the perspective of a western businessperson.

That was/is the position of the IOM though. Was Purdue involved with convincing the IOM to adopt that position?
Why would it be unfair? This is a simple cost-benefit risk management. Of course testing people has some cost (harder to find employees, privacy concerns, bad PR, the actual cost of the testing and management of testing), of course if someone fucks up that has an even bigger cost usually, so preventing fuckup while high seems to have a big positive cost-benefit. Okay, then simply get a threshold and look at the risk involved for each individual role/position and test those that are above.

That’s a great news!

I won’t redo the whole embedded GUI from custom NanoVG-based library to Avalonia, started much earlier than 2 months ago. For next embedded Linux project, or major version upgrade of the current one, I’ll definitely evaluate Avalonia.

Does it use GLES to render fonts and 2D graphics? Or they’re rendered on CPU?

Does it support ClearType-like font rendering, like this forked NanoVG? https://github.com/Const-me/nanovg/

Is there something comparable to WPF’s D3DImage to insert custom 3D content? In my custom library, I’ve implemented GlesInterop control which does nothing on the NanoVG render pass, but after the whole GUI is rendered, overlays a custom GLES content on top of the result.

How hard it is to implement custom touchscreen input? I’m currently generating touch events by reading from /dev/input/event0 with a FileStream class.

Is there on-screen keyboard in Avalonia? That’s probably the most complex piece of UI I’ve implemented in that project: input focus, modifier keys switching layouts, and that’s just for US English keyboard.
"Or is the key message of conservatism something else?"

It depends on the conservative. It's a broad camp. Some people who call themselves 'conservative' are really just super reactionary people who hate any kind of change while others are reasonable people who want to be careful. US politics is highly partisan right now so there is a lot of conflict that has more to do with team or tribal affiliation (republican or democrat) than with actual ideological or philosophical differences.

Traditionally, though, conservatism as a school of thought originates with the writings of Edmund Burke on the French Revolution, where he pointed out, not that social and political change were bad in themselves, but that the Revolution in his opinion, was going too far too fast, breaking with too many traditions, and was thereby sowing the seeds of its own destruction. He argued that because the French Revolutionaries were attempting to replace widely held (in France at the time) principles of political legitimacy with novel principles of the political legitimacy, that politics in France would break down into practical power politics and would result in a military dictatorship. His prediction turned out correct, though people still debate his reasoning.

So, in this sense, conservatism is the idea that traditional political institutions have value because they are traditional political institutions. Change is not inherently bad, but must be undertaken carefully because if you overtly discredit the current institutions you court instability and the new system might not be better.
It's nothing like that awful. Like I couldn't just come up with a model tomorrow and have it approved and averaged - there are absolutely standards to be met. And the IPCC reports go into great detail on the differences in the models and why they predict different outcomes.

Rolling is not the same thing as a wheel and axke. You're playing word games.

Arguing that while nature doesn't might not use some technology, it does do something else that relies on the same principle. Who's to draw the line between a technology and a principle? You can say nature has done anything so long as your definitions are uselessly vague.
I didn't see the original comment, which has been flagged and apparently deleted by a moderator. I just want to say that the liberal equivalent of The American Conservative is probably something like Jacobin Magazine, not HuffPost or NPR. Basically, a source of opinion and ideas with a political agenda.

Sorry, I am not native speaker. I meant that they force people (e.g. With laws) to stop making progress.
The west is an information and trchnology economy. If it has specialties in anything it’s in high tech. As fast rising and impressive as Chinese tech is, it’s still generally inferior. We’re not not scrambling for Chinese devices because of tariffs, they’re just usually coming in on the low end.

Manufacturing is also the low-value end of the supply chain. Building up expertise at the top (Apple, Microsoft, Google, Intel, AMD, Nvidia—level tech) is exponentially harder than building up the bottom end.

Changing phone every year is kind of crazy though, so I'm not sure you are comparing with a normal user. I change maybe every five years. Always on the low end models and happy to do so.
I have the same phone, and in fact I purchased it used when I accidentally dropped my old SE into my coffee.

It's small, is usable as a phone and gps, and has a headphone jack (something I never thought I'd consider a feature...).

Hong Kong is rather small, so living apart would seem less influenced by geographic separation (though you might have couples split in HK and mainland) due to jobs, but might indicate something like what also happens in the US that it’s economically favorable to stay together in a legal sense.

Edit: looks like in HK there is a large component of this which is caused by housing unaffordability —so couples keep living in their respective parents’ homes.
The last book has been in progress for almost a decade now. I'll believe it's on its way when I see it.
I generally agree with this, but one with addition/clarification: it's likely that climate change is driving the extreme conditions that the United States, and the world, are seeing far from the coast, such as historic flooding in the midwest and historic fires in the west.

It's also quite possible that the rate at which such extreme weather events are getting worse is increasing.

Sea level rise is brutal, and will cause enormous impacts to many millions of people. Weather weirding stands a good chance of bringing epic damage to many millions more.

MongoDB with its current license - in my opinion - would have gotten just as popular as it is now.

Yes, the legal questions are real, and were MongoDB just starting up they would work with OSI and experts to clarify things, they would put up a FAQ and so on to get people to trust them.
Absolutely concur. And I'm only on a G6, a standard one I picked up some months ago at a clearance sale for ~nothing because Android was getting absurdly cranky about hardware limitations on my old phone. No idea why I would want a heftier model.

The president is not (necessary) a religious leader, nor is the chief of army or of the IRGC. Different religious leaders have a lot of power but many tend to overestimate their power.

For sure they enforces religious laws more than most of other countries, but again there is often a gap between what people picture and and the reality. My well educated brother was for example surprise that many girl wear scarf in a way to show half of their hairs, or that Iran pays for the transition of some transgender person. Definitely more liberal than Saudi Arabia...

Most countries that can find ways to boost their international influence. Suporting militia or countries is one way (like USA supporting kurdish militia in Iran°, but religion is only part of the equation. For example Iran supports Sunni groups (Hamas being the most famous)or country (use to get ties with Sudan). Religion helps. But money and military support is the cornerstone here. And many groups needs Iran, but don't like it, its control, have different agenda.

Repeatedly swears it wants to destroy Israel (good communication) but never do anything really in this direction. They have plenty of opportunity but don't act. Cause that is definitely not very important for them, and not realistic. A slogan is a slogan...

Conclusion: Iran is a dictatorship, a theocracy, and is in a fight with USA. Most of their leader are convinced Shia Muslim, but the way they acts shows that they are more guided by Iranian interest and regime / self interest preservation than crazy cleric fighting for primary for Shia everywhere in the world... And while it is a regime I hate, it is clear to me there is a big gap between the perception of Iran and the reality
Any male "incel" who could have sex with other men but doesn't because they insist on being heterosexual is not a real incel. They have options; they just aren't man enough to exploit them.
Right. Walk away from the beach: to inland places that are likely being impacted by increasingly extreme weather events.
Currently, the only way to access WiFi SSID is indeed from a low level API: CNCopySupportedInterfaces(), a C API for System Configuration.

This is useful if an app needs to know whether the phone is currently using a local network or a cellular modem to connect to the Internet, or to connect to local devices. Unfortunately Apple does not provide a basic API that provides this information without the SSID. (Although in early iOS 13 betas, there was a WiFi framework that might have provided such information. It was removed from later betas, however).

For Bluetooth, apps do not have access to BSSID nor peripheral MAC addresses from advertisements and connections. CoreBluetooth provisions a separate identifier (that is rotated) to prevent apps from gleaning much tracking info outside of the user's consent.

I tend to agree with the message in the article, even as someone who's in the past been a bit overzealous about evangelising Rust. The most striking point to me though was the one about not using tribalistic names like Rustaceans and Gophers. These never sat well with me because they sound silly, but I also see how they could be inadvertently reinforcing silloing across programming languages.
