Nah. Opioids are an essential medication. The problem is not that OxyContin exists, it's the creation of irregular demand for it through the actions that Purdue Pharma are having to settle for.
simplified, dns being distributed means that an outage in one domain doesn't affect an outage in another domain. but each domain still can and should protect itself against outages by having multiple servers for that domain.

a second level domain is usually required to provide at least two DNS servers for that domain. a top level domain like .io better have a dozen or more spread over multiple networks.

In my experience, for nontrivial (but hot) code Java’s performance is within half a order of magnitude of native C++. Sure, calling it “near-native” is a bit of a stretch outside of certain specific cases, but in the general sense Java is not slow and “Java is fast” is becoming more and more true with time. FWIW, your comparison with obsolete hardware isn’t really relevant: the language and interpreter at the time was much poorer than it is today, and there’s no way we’d be able to run today’s C# on those.
That is actually a really good thought. I could see this being an additional feature in the new hardware; I'm guessing it's in the new Series 5 watch. Maybe this is a push for people to upgrade their computers as well as their phones.
Just accept that the system is broken and get 'm on the most free market we currently have: the market of stuff that is merely illegal.

Bromite v77 Released
If you are genuinely entitled, you are probably entitled by law, by convention, by the terms of some contract. There's some framework, and some reason within it, that you are owed the thing.

We also seem to use "entitled" to mean that someone thinks they are owed things when they aren't - you often find this in rants about individual jerks or millennials in general. There's no subject to be had in that use because the entire point is that it is not legitimate.

I think the latter sense is always an adjective. The former sense clearly can be a transitive verb, and I have not found a seemingly grammatical utterance that can't be described that way (I think - IANALinguist). The fact that the subject can be left unspecified is a feature of the passive construction in general, and an often-stated motivation for some of the criticism it receives.
If the Russians have figured out inexpensive techniques to turn out votes for the Republicans, would it not make sense for the Democrats to try some of those techniques to get their own turnout up too?

Particularly your [3] - that is a puff piece saying that "we can't measure anything but maybe ...". Did you know the Australian Greens gave a ringing denouncement of Trump in the lead up to the 2016 election? maybe that influenced the election too. Everyone was airing strong opinions about Trump in the lead up to 2016 with a wide range of channels used to communicate them.

US politics is a very popular national sport. Any attempt to 'influence' the election short of actual voter fraud is meaningless. There are too many interest groups.

> the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome

I'm going to go full partisan on this comment from [3]. Them and everyone else who is at risk of being on the receiving end of American aggression. Trump is one of the most peaceful and moderate US presidents in recent history when it comes to international affairs and invading/surging countries full of brown people. He's been pretty consistent in talking down overseas spending on aggression and talking smack on twitter. Great strategy; keep up the good work. More businessmen and less lawyers in American leadership would really be a great thing for the world.

Alchemy by Rory Sutherland.

"Why is Red Bull so popular, though everyone—everyone!—hates the taste? Humans are, in a word, irrational, basing decisions as much on subtle external signals (that little blue can) as on objective qualities (flavor, price, quality). The surrounding world, meanwhile, is irreducibly complex and random. This means future success can’t be projected on any accounting spreadsheet. To strike gold, you must master the dark art and curious science of conjuring irresistible ideas: alchemy."
Bullshit. Having valuable skills or something to sell that people want is what gives people freedoms and a good negotiation position. Not unions.

If you want higher wages and more holidays, create more demand for workers, by creating jobs. That's the proper way to do it. Unions only benefit some workers at the expense of others - the ones who don't get a job because of minimum wages or because of bankrupt companies don't benefit from unions anymore.
I have been running it for quite a few months and there are two improvements that I can think of:

1) In visual mode you have a block cursor and in insert mode it is a |.

2) With ':set inccommand=nosplit' you get live previews for substitution calls. For example :%s/foo/bar/ will update your foos on screen whilst you type the command.

Otherwise it is pretty much a drop-in replacement without issues.
Psychedelic Information Theory: Shamanism in the Age of Reason
It's not just "the ROM in it", it's "the ROMs in it". Single-rom games don't benefit from containers. The whole point of treating all games as containers is to allow multi-rom games to be free of metadata. 30% of NES games, 1% of SNES games, and most arcade games are multi-rom. In order for the emulator to tell contents apart without metadata, you have to have a naming scheme. So, for example, Galaxian.fc.zip would contain "program.rom" and "character.rom". Currently, those pieces are blobbed together with a header in front. Thus you can't open a .NES file in your file browser and see if it has a character rom, what size it is, what sha256 it has. This causes massive tedium with NES dump verification since you can't assume anything at face value. All parts and values are obscured and need extracted.

The other reason metadata is evil is that it's a royal PITA to maintain. It's far easier to update your emulator than thousands of individual files. Do not listen to anyone who tells you that we need to drag licensed games into the metadata mud for the sake of unlicensed games. They are pulling your chain, an unlicensed db for nes is entirely feasible, or even the mapper number applied to the extension ala "Cheetahmen II.224.fc.zip".

MAME did this right with a database and NEVER writing inside the container, but only because their hand was forced into it. So many arcade games have 3 or more roms, so they were never tempted to take shortcuts and blob shit together to avoid zip containers. Then they screwed up their own good fortune with some truly bizarre stuff. Google non-merged vs merged and behold threads and threads of confusion. Now weigh that confusion against the supposed benefit.

What I Learnt from Failure
> LCBO stores which are in every neighbourhood and are run quite efficiently

This is pretty funny. On what basis can you make this claim?

Putting aside fully private retail systems and considering only Canada, they are waaaay less convenient and accessible than stores in Alberta or BC, return less profits to the taxpayers than the alternative would. Not to mention the ridiculous selection: Ontario, which is much bigger than Alberta, has a total distribution of ~1/3 the SKUs of Alberta. That’s what happens when you have a monopoly, no innovation, no specialization!

Seriously, think about cigarettes, food or pharmacies! Governments can regulate, license and tax. They don’t need to run the retail itself!

The liberals own study [1] concluded that a privatized system would benefit Ontario far more, and it was promptly buried.

It truly boggles my mind to see how many people think the LCBO is great, efficient, provides excellent selection, convenience, etc. It isn’t, it isn’t, it doesn’t and doesn’t.

I can only speculate that keeping the LCBO was politically necessary for the liberals (because doing otherwise would require taking on the unions, and they got scared when they considered doing that in the early 90s), so they propagandize this message that the LCBO “makes a lot of money for the public” and they invest is keeping the stores (too) nice and clean so that everyone feels it’s a great system.

The change to give private licenses was the right move, and it’s a shame that it was bungled so badly. Though I think it’s fair that the current and previous government should share responsibility, given that it would not have been bungled if they had just elected to do the best thing for Ontario in the first place.

We spent the better part of decade catching and locking up doctors who prescribed opioids out of guidelines, so much so that doctors are now terrified of prescribing them to people who legitimately need them.

The problem is that the prescribing guidelines, which were written by the pharmaceutical companies themselves, described a regimen that would get pretty much anyone physically addicted to their product.

So you had doctors acting in good faith, prescribing medications only when indicated and following their manufacturer's prescribing guidelines, inadvertently creating new addicts where the manufacturer's literature said there would be none.

Not only that, but we spent several decades treating chronic pain patients with opioids, such that they are completely dependent on that class of drugs to manage their condition. Only very recently have prescribing guidelines adjusted to reflect the reality that opioids are not a good treatment for chronic pain. When those pain patients are driven off of their opioid prescriptions, even if their doctor is well-meaning, some of them turn to heroin/fentanyl to manage their pain.

I think it depends on how long you keep the laptop. If you get a new one every year then it's pretty insane to deal with new driver and software issues each time.

But if you keep the laptop for many years it might be the opposite. If you can work out the software issues given some time investment, and then have a computer you like using, it could be worth it. If the option that "just works" has a keyboard you hate, and you will be stuck with it for years, that seems a lot worse than one weekend wasted on driver issues or whatever.
Yes, you can already install an application in a VM or container (or just instantiate one of the many ready to use images out there; shameless plug https://bitnami.com).

But sandstorm is something else. It composes well. You can have an application that is a good document editor and another one that offers a spreadsheet that works for you, and have a unified layer that handles identity, authorization, document management (collections, sharing).

Short slogans as "liberate your data" or "self host your apps" focus on the end goal without highlighting what is really stopping us from doing it: the integrated, cohesive experience many of us expect/need, especially in the enterprise environments.

I recently went through an acquisition where we had to switch from gsuite to office 365. Oh my. What a mess.

In the ideal world we would have had our stuff in sandstorm grains, and after the merger our new colleagues would have access to them even if we wouldn't necessarily have picked the same spreadsheet app for example.

Now, for those of us that Word doesn't work well and were happy with Google Docs, well, we don't have a choice: we cannot possibly give a gsuite account to every employee in the larger company and thus we have to migrate in order to not preclude potential collaboration

I suppose this is being upvoted as it goes against western preconceptions of irani society and women rights over there. When reading it, I remembered I visited Doha earlier this year and I was told that many more women than men go to university there, because for men it is vastly more likely to be socially acceptable to study abroad than for women. So that may also be playing a role here (or not; qatar is quite smaller, richer and more open than Iran)

On the other hand in Europe also more women than men are entering university.

I think the general workflow is session view for initial idea exploration to come up with a set of parts that you can ‘perform’.

Nationally it's about 56% of students at university are women.

Aug 2017, The Atlantic: "Where men once went to college in proportions far higher than women—58 percent to 42 percent as recently as the 1970s—the ratio has now almost exactly reversed."

"This fall, women will comprise more than 56 percent of students on campuses nationwide, according to the U.S. Department of Education. Some 2.2 million fewer men than women will be enrolled in college this year. And the trend shows no sign of abating. By 2026, the department estimates, 57 percent of college students will be women."

I was in Iran last year so let's give some perspective why this metric alone is useless:

1. Before university boys and girls learn in separate schools.

2. After university women have almost zero chances for career. It is more probably that they will end up being house wives.

I doubt that this has changed in a year. I have not checked my facts - that's impression from speaking with open minded Iranian families (and we have met various families).

Basically, university is one of the rare chances for women in Iran not to marry their cousin.
I’ve been reading Release It - design deploy production ready software.

This is a fantastic book with several lessons my teams learned either by failing. The parts on how so many issues tend to be blocked threads, how you accidentally DDOS yourself, or how scaling/capacity management has failures even when you follow all the textbook, sound patterns... it takes many of my personal experiences and some failures I haven’t had (but will) and provides such a fresh perspective.

This ultimately depends on your situation. I would have said Flutter since it is past 1.0 and RN is still in beta. But my main problem here is that you will quickly run into difficulty in attempting to use C/C++ libraries in Dart.

Dart has beta support for native FFI but it is not stable unlike RN. Right now, they instead have 'Platform Channels' which has a significant overhead when passing messages back and forth compared to a native FFI. The issue is still open on Github: https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/7053

I can reuse and port my JavaScript/TypeScript projects into mobile very quickly thanks to React Native. Flutter on the other hand, requires learning Dart which depending on your use-case makes sense if it is a new project, not so if you have invested in JavaScript.

Perhaps once Dart gains a production-level C/C++ FFI, then I can seriously look at both Dart and Flutter again.
