The negative health impact of smoking tobacco is so massive that it's pretty hard for anything to top it. Could vaping be worse than smoking cigarettes over a 40-year period? Maybe. But it seems unlikely because tobacco is so clearly harmful, and so much of that harm we know comes from combustion.
Doing a quick skim, it feels like that migration guide should still cover the basics. (I don't think there is a big developer-facing change between ASP.NET Core 2.1 and 3.0; small subtle things like the Generic Host Builder. But you should be fine using the guide here to migrate to 2.1 and you can find simple posts on the 2.1 to 3.0 changes.)
This is how the majority of US clothing brands operate, I don't think this is necessarily problematic.

So it would seem that the primality is complete red herring here if using all natural numbers (and especially all odd natural numbers) also draws similar parallelograms?

If so then I feel bit disappointed that numberphile went with just the story that "wooo prime numbers are weird"
Yes because we should be the ones building and maintaining our robots as well.
I agree. A couple of years ago I was asked to design a circuit that could read a voltage, perform a few calculations and multiply the result by another voltage and create two phase-shifted signals from that multiplication product. It was a simple design in that it could be reduced to high-school trigonometry. However, finding an efficient implementation was not trivial.

After spending a lot of time looking at parts and considering multiple approaches, the simplest answer was to do the slower aspects in the CPU and use a 4-quadrant Multiplying Digital/Analog Converter (MDAC) to do the heavy lifting (signal multiplication).

ISTR that doing it all digitally would have required a processor with at least a 40MHz clock and probably a separate 200MHz clock to implement a 1-bit DAC. And I would still have needed extra circuitry since one of the inputs (and both outputs) could swing +/-10V.

Not to say that the all-digital approach wouldn't have worked, but the development cost would have been overwhelming for something that probably won't sell more than 200 units or so. By using an MDAC and a couple of opamps, the design was reduced to an Arduino "shield."

Have to say, it works pretty damn nice :-)
I may be paranoid, but I can't grok as much social information as my coworkers can. I've had to memorize what different emotional states look like, and I come from a working-class background where emotional dishonesty is not a valued thing, going to an office environment where it is.

Why would you compare the actions of a developing country 200 years ago working within that timeframe's norms to the actions of a developed country working within today's norms?
Your example shows that you fail to understand how it's inaccurate to compare.
Certainly not libertarian, and I would argue that it should be troubling to anyone who values civil liberties.
My understanding is that there is a difference. Many hybrids in nature are sterile. What GMO companies like Monsanto do, however, is

a. Artificially make "terminator seeds"[1] that would naturally be fertile but have been made deliberately sterile, and

b. Where seeds don't have that technology, rely on contracts instead that forbid farmers from saving seeds for next year.[2]

I wonder if the apps that are offered will remain consistent from month to month or if Google plans to change them or simply add to them. I wouldn't want to get in the habit of using an app that I get through this only to have it removed at some point and then I'm stuck not being able to use it without paying for that app. This seems like a good avenue to let users try out software on a "shareware" basis until they eventually decide it's worth the purchase. Not sure how that would work when the app is eventually added back in but it might turn some people off to be double-charged for something like that.

It's difficult to see this as unintentional and as not malicious, even if it was unintentional.

> Apple also operate at a scale most companies can't, which means that even without federal product exclusions Apple would still be in a better position to do this than most companies. Those companies in the industry can think all they want, but they're unlikely to get the same federal exclusion, and even less likely to be able to execute anything like this anywhere near as efficiently as Apple.

This is also tells of that even an entity the size of Apple+Flex+Foxconn can't run a whole vertical manufacturing themselves.

It is kind of a myth that Foxconn came to South China when "there was nothing," and did everything in house. Foxconn was a whacking huge buyer of everything in Guangdong since the very beginning, going back to times when the biggest foreign manufacturers in China were Japanese (true, Toshiba, Shrap, NEC, Sanyo all had factories in the middle of what is now Futian district of Shenzhen)
We actually study it quite a bit. But nice job trying to distract the conversation onto a completely separate issue.

Hm - my wife (who’s an expert on this sort of thing) says that’s actually rude and you should always answer back, “good and you” so that _the other person_ can start taking about their TV show/podcast whatever.
I think one of the subtle problems here is all the pay walls on the more reputable news sites. Yes I know they need to make money but by closing themselves off to people unwilling to pay for their material, that increases the chance that sites like Twitter and Facebook become their only source of news. Nothing good comes from that. That's not blaming Facebook by the way.
I suggest readers to draw their own conclusions from this article. To me, it does not make a convincing case that the scale of IP theft in 18th century USA is anywhere near as comprehensive as what is happening today in China.

As a reformed math major (that is, I've forgotten all my schooling), I think its worth debating whether or not there is even any value in having middle school / high school students use these calculators in the first place, let alone requiring them. In my hastily formed opinion, I think students might be better off learning without them. What does the average 7th grader need a CAS for?
The best application for serverless that I've found is supplemental, not wholesale.

I don't know. I don't know if there's any research about flavored alcohol appealing primarily to under-age drinkers the way flavored cigarettes were linked to underage cigarette use. Also there are levels of regular drinking that have neither definitive long term health consequences or the capacity for rapid addiction. Direct comparisons aren't really applicable, at least not without taking those vast differences into account.
That could be true, yeah. boourns311's comment also helped me understand the viewpoint a little better. I'd be a little surprised if they were investing in Juul while also trying to sweep it away, but it's the tobacco industry. They're always doing anything they can to keep themselves afloat.

Former math TA* here. What if the pb isn't the $100 barebone calculator but the way/medium by which math is currently instructed in the U.S.?

To this day, we're still teaching math with pen & paper, and require students to memorize concepts like how to differentiate functions of the form 1/x, x^2...etc. To test proficiency, well we give pen & paper tests and forbid most notes, but we still provide you a calculator because it'd be almost dumb not to. But given the prior rules about no notes, the calculator that doesn't have fancy note storage & programming wins, even if it costs $100.

But my recollection as a student is that math didn't entirely click until I started playing with Excel and later with Jupyter notebooks. Honestly, nothing quite like coding along a spam filter from scratch to really understand the basic principles at play behind Bayes' theorem.

In summary, I didn't love math in the pen&paper contest, but absolutely loved it when applied using a computer and some visualizations...etc. Based on my TA'ing experience, I am willing to bet most kids feel the same way. Mathematicians have long moved away from using abacus; maybe it's time our education does too.

<sample_size=1>I am 100% addicted to nicotine. I have managed to quit drinking alcohol from a 1L/day vodka habit. I switched to vape years ago, haven't smoked a cigarette in years, and have been cutting down the mg/ml level of nicotine in my vape for months now. Once I go below 6mg/ml I start to get very very unhappy, and if I switch to 0mg, I start having symptoms I recall very well from detoxing from booze.</sample_size=1>

I think the lack of decent public transport in many places contribute to this.

You can't use the pricing as evidence it's necessary. It's possible it's both unnecessary and overpriced. All that matters is TI deems it to be a profitable price-point. They might be selling to mostly misinformed or confused buyers.

This has been the case for years. When people aren't paying attention they are pavlovian in staring forward when they notice movement around them. But this doesn't necessarily have to coincide with cell phone usage, just bad driving.
This is a cool piece. I've been thinking a lot about how I communicate in person and in text form, and how it changes based on situation, e.g. when I am trying to be incredibly informal or quick in text, I default to all lowercase and will always truncate words/use acronyms/use single letter spellings (u for example).

It's been fun watching how we communicate in the age of social media and instantaneous communication.

Okay, let's say we accept this. We have plenty of science and evidence to say that smoking cigarettes directly leads to cancer, yet we are fine with cigarettes being legal. Why are we ready to ban vaping because of what we don't know, but we're fine keeping cigarettes despite what we do know?

You might be interested in biophotons: human body emits dim light constantly. These photons may be functional and not just a byproduct. Many sources are a bit 'woo', so take with a grain of salt, but there is an idea floating around that some molecules are excited by specific wavelengths, and so by targeting cells with these wavelengths you can preferentially change the reaction rate of certain molecules it contains.

Because of this:

"Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

It's the inscription on the Statue of Liberty. The US decided, long ago, that we'd be a haven for people of other countries who are being persecuted or who otherwise want a better life.

If we don't want to do that anymore, I suggest we tear down the Statue and replace it with a closed gate.

Besides that, we've been meddling in the affairs of Central and South America for decades with mostly-disastrous effect on their economies and political systems. Accepting refugees would be a small step toward acknowledging and working to right that wrong.

The evidence is the podcast/interview. It is not known the extent to which generic drugs are affected. But in almost all the Indian plans investigated there was evidence of fraud, and I believe evidence of fraud was found in 80% of Chinese generic pharmaceutical plants. Additionally according to the author of the book there have already been cases of organ rejections due to fraudulent generics.

Before dismissing my comments out of hand maybe you should look at my evidence.

Quoting the linked article:

“I have fully forgiven him and I don’t have the same attitude that a lot of people have with his treatment of me,” Tarleton said. “I have moved on so well and in so many ways. I feel like, for me, it ends a big chapter in my life.”

More than what happened to her, what stands out to me is that she's moved on. That's strength. There are things that no one can take away.
8 people went from healthy to dead in the space of 3 months. From vaping-relates illness.

So far, the evidence is that vaping is more dangerous than smoking, which merely increases the likelihood of death from other causes (i.e., lung cancer) decades later but does not itself directly cause death.
That may be the case for some large companies (though I'd still be skeptical of the extent of the beneficial effect), but at least in Apple's case, they have a long history of curbing this network effect by securing exclusivity of their supply chain.

Logitech mice, I've actually not had great results. I remember installing the OS X preference pane, and it still sucked. It might've just been the mouse. I have not owned a MS mouse in years.

Try a DeathAdder, next time you have a chance to experiment.
It's usually a good idea to wait for the patch release before updating. This applies to most software, including VS, VSC and .NET Core.

Being an early adopter sucks unless you're just testing it out. If it's your job then wait for it to stabilise and for the real-world bug fixes.

The next Long Term Support version of .NET Core will be 3.1. It should be out in November.
> People love to hate cigarettes, especially cigarette companies.... For the most part, attempts to regulate cigarettes have been successful.

Depends on what your goals were. It doesn't seem like there are consistent goals with vaping and smoking at all. One is reactionary where the the other is health related. I haven't heard any proponent of vaping articulate the expected/desired effect at all—it's entirely based around teen vaping in a vacuum.
