My new LG TV has a "Reduce Eye Strain" setting which does a flux-like red shift, reducing blue light. I haven't found a setting to do this based on time of day, and it's a bit buried in menus, so I just leave it on all the time as it isn't too severe. I tend to watch TV mostly in the evening anyway.

There seems to be an uptick in open source related announcements from AWS as of late.

I can’t imagine why...
The store is able to build customer profiles using credit card numbers. The bank doesn't need to be involved at all.

Yes, it won't be perfect (especially if one uses multiple cards), but many stores are getting extremely sophisticated with their techniques for profiling customers.
No, it only works for everything else: in-store checkout, returns, pharmacies...

For the digital card to work for gas, Costco would have to install QR code scanners on gas pumps.
Uh, yes, there is something very wrong with #1. Certainly exposing bad actors is good. But making all men the enemy is even worse and that's what that movement turned into.

And anyone who thinks this RMS story is casually coming up now by random chance is naive. Stallman is under active attacked and the storm has not finished raging. You can disagree on whether it's deserved, but it's VERY old news that was done with ages ago, so why are we discussing this now? Oh right, there's blood in the water, let the frenzy begin...
It's a shame that many countries in the world, you have to get married if you're not from the same country. Married people have different rights to stay together compared to people who spend many years living together.

If it wasn't for some immigration laws and other areas where you're not equal unless you're married, there is little point in getting married at the present time.

That is actually relatively low for the NBA. In 87-88, home teams won 67% of games. Baxter Holmes wrote another piece about two years ago about how Tinder, better sleep, and less drinking has eroded the home court advantage in the NBA. It was a great piece.

>The overwhleming majority of exploratory, pre-clinical, and early-phase clinical research is already funded by government grants, particularly from the CDC and NIH.

The overwhelming number of SAAS prototypes are made by engineers on the weekends - just take a few of those, and $$$, profit.

... Of course not. Exploratory, initial research is not the same as being successful at bringing a drug to market.

Who decides what research to follow? It's successful in animal models, but then later not in humans? Or fails the one of the clinical phase trials. Or isn't safe.

Drug companies fail. Even if something is promising initially, doesn't make it a slam dunk.

Billions can be spent only to have a potential drug sunk by one of the trials.

There are absolute risks. There are tough decisions to be made on which looks most promising and given that money and time and researchers aren't infinite, you have to make the calls on what looks most promising.
I do think some aspect of this is true, but I think how research is directed is systemically off today. You may want to read this overview report (it has footnotes for all the research it cites). But there are quotes in there like:

"While critical medical needs remain unmet, a majority of new medicines developed have no added therapeutic value."

> Furthermore, if we are to embrace feminism, we must cast aside the concept that marriage helps ensure the wife is financially stable after divorce. They are working and saving for themselves as well, right?

We could debate if desirable or not, but it seems that a modern modification would maintain this without being anti-feminist:

"Marriage helps ensure that both partners are financially stable after divorce."

Which is generally what the law provides. It allows for the flexibility for the couple to allow for one partner to prioritize family care, while the other prioritizes financial matters, without discriminating based on gender. Sure there are still stereotypical gender roles in play that create biases, but the basic framework can persist.
Yes it was similar, though it was a much more reasonable move. They were two different decisions, with two different sets of consequences, and I don't think generalizing them as the same is accurate.

With a role queue, you are now unable to solve certain categories of problems your team may have. No one character in Overwatch can exclusively solve a category of problems, so being unable to swap to a specific character isn't nearly as prohibitive.

> Fen Labalme did confirm Stallman's claim, but could not find the email; remember this is in the days of backups on 9-track tapes.

Ah, good to know, thanks!

> This is true in a very limited way, but by itself it is a very misleading partial truth. Stallman gave Gosling credit for Gosmacs, not for EMACS.

> Stallman had been working on EMACS on ITS on the PDP-10 for years before Gosling started writing his version, but the inception of EMACS was, as I understand it, a collaboration between Stallman and Steele. Gosling's Emacs wasn't even the second Emacs; Multics Emacs was Bernie Greenberg's reimplementation of the PDP-10 EMACS Stallman was the maintainer of, and it was the first Emacs to use Lisp as its scripting language, which is where Gosling got the idea. EINE, ZWEI, and Lisp-Machine Emacs also preceded Gosmacs.

I'd forgotten about the PDP-10 and Guy Steele.

To suggest people online don't say something simply because you don't like it... is immature and silly.

Welcome to the World. People may do things you might not like, in which case you have to deal with it.
I obviously agree that it's a very bad idea to get married if you don't intend to stick it out, but it's not hard to see why people might do it anyway. they might live in a conservative community/family where children out of wedlock is still stigmatized. there is sometimes a cultural expectation that a person (especially a woman) will be married by a certain age. they might see their friends getting married and think it seems nice. these are all bad reasons, but it doesn't mean they aren't powerful ones.
WeWork pulls thousands of phone booths out of service over formaldehyde scare

You need about 1 sansiveria per hundred square feet or so. NASA has spent quite a bit investigating the efficiency and effectiveness of a wide array of plants for CO2 -> exchange. In an office you'll want plants such as bamboo palm, english ivy, peace lily, boston fern and a few others as they do their work presdominantly by day and sequester oxins such as formaldehyde and benzene.

They don't have to fully supply everyone's oxygen to be effective, nor do they have to fully consume your CO2. That said, you'd be surprised at how well some of these will do just that. As a rule of thumb, about four mature sansevieria trificiata will convert as much CO2 to O2 as a single human does on a daily basis. But with those they are storing the CO2 by day and releasing O2 by night so while they will sck up the CO2 in your office by day, you won't see the O2 "come back" in that same time - at least not significantly so.

Others such as some of the palms and lillies, and a few ferns, would do that same "effort" but in the daytime. Even then, in the context of offices and other rooms in this discussion the part to look at is their CO2 consumption, not the production of O2.

Some plants, such as Ficus benjamina are very effective. One (or more) of those with a total leaf surface area of 1 square meter can take a closed room from 2,000ppm CO2 down to 400-500ppm in one hour (variance based on temperature and light levels).

If the inequity is due to free people freely making different choices, then it is strictly better than coercing people to make the choices <some group> wants them to make. It is eminently desirable that _all_ people are free, even if that freedom doesn't yield some neat behavioral parity. Pressuring women to behave in a certain way is creepy.
I agree, it seems insane, yet people do get married, sometimes several times. Even the super rich apparently... I really wonder what goes through their head.

"Stealing" in the context of intangible entities is equivalent to appropriation without permission. It has nothing to do with conservation of the total number of intangible entities. If you don't like the choice of word, use appropriation or plagiarism instead. The basic argument doesn't change though.
This is a pretty "I know better than you" take, one that is eliding pretty important facts, like that this election was blatantly illegal. I, for one, would probably choose to not vote in an illegal election that purports to speak for me as well.

Additionally, it is not helpful to "suggest" that a majority of a region take part in illegal activity. It would seem to me that not every election is democratic; this reductive argument that elections, write large, equal democracy does not help find a solution

This is incorrect and a giant red herring. Pharma is not "raising prices" in the implied sense, and pharma is not the cause of drug prices being high in the US.

Pharma is increasing the "gross price" of a drug in order to increase the rebate going to the PBM (Pharmacy Benefit Manager) so that they maintain their position on the formulary (to be "covered by insurance"). The "net price" of drugs (what pharma makes) is overall growing at the pace of inflation, not above. There's obviously exception cases, and plenty of small biotech firms launch questionable products with high prices that then get covered. But this is a result of this rebate system that prioritizes covering drugs with large rebates (since PBMs monetize rebates), not the most cost effective drug.
Overall, it doesn't sound to bad. What caught my attention was this line:

> Another gripe is that traditional asset managers can no longer compete. “Public markets are becoming winner-takes-all,” complains one of the world’s largest asset managers. “I don’t think we can even come close to competing in this game,” he says.

Individually, this doesn't really say much. But various sectors becoming "winner-takes-all" seems to be a trend right now that concerns me. Some say it is just a trend, a new age of conglomerates, and it wont last. I hope they are right.

I think that metaphor is not very apt, nor neutral. Catalonia is not poor in political power by any means, they have been pushing very successfully for years towards decentralization towards Barcelona. And winning the lottery is random, you can’t really negotiate.

In my opinion there are huge stresses in Spain that will open the can of worms that is redefining the Constitution during the next decades. Republicanism, decentralization, chunks of the constitution that nobody really puts in practice, etc. That wont happen in 2 days. But it can happen.
I think you misunderstand my intent. My advice is not for governments or individuals, but rather corporations who are invested in their own survival. I don't think it's wise to disagree that a missed market opportunity can spell the end for a corporation. And in the wording I chose I am careful to limit my advice to "a business that must operate in China to stay competitive." I do not think you were careful enough to notice this, but hey I can see that your kneejerk reaction accidentally echoed my own opinion on what my country (the US) should be doing about China.

I mean, in the same breath of my aforementioned advice I could have added that "by the way, don't over-invest in China because the inevitable embargo of Chinese trade in the West might destroy your company."

But it's not dangerous to recommend that a business operate as a business. What is dangerous is to not have our governments intervene and to hogtie our politicians from making difficult choices when it comes to trade principles. For example, the US should have long ago forced China to recognize its patent laws. Additionally, China's human rights violations should be tried in international court regardless of its power and size (interestingly enough, so should the US's human rights violations.) I think it's all too obvious that the time has come for China to back down on its authoritarianism.

And that's what I vote for and that's what I support. But I don't think it's unreasonable to recommend a corporation act like a corporation. You seem smart enough to know this.

According to this article they "had finally produced a driveable prototype", and e.g. the BBC article[0] says "The first cars had already been developed and were being tested".

The first two days (sometimes) the baby has stomach ache and s/he doesn't sleep too much and you sleep even less. Most of the times it's only one or two days, so be brave and try to survive.

The ache can be cured with some massages in the tummy. It's not as easy as it looks. Ask the nurse in the hospital for help after you tried for 15 or 30 minutes. The nurses know how to make the massages, it's like magic.
Check out the propublica piece. Their analogy is more akin to putting pb&j in one jar. As to why it happens? People are likely to do what their doctors say and what their insurance will cover. Pharma has ways to influence both.

I doubt that most strip clubs will be unprofitable now.

You’re lumping all drugs into one basket.

The demand for some drugs is very elastic. A good example is what I take for stomach acid. I stick with generic ranitidine and skip the esomeprazole. Is ranitidine inferior? Yeah, probably, but it’s worth the cost savings.

Even in markets like cancer there is competition.

However, a big problem is that the person who pays, the person who understands the data and the person who should make the choice are all different.

I am. Paying taxes on income (that is then taxed again when spent) is a terrible disincentive. Some states agree with me; I would rather see the standard move toward a model free of income taxation than toward universal taxation. Doubly so when the tone of your comment seems to point to the motivation being largely spite.

More than that, "I was investigating wrongdoing by a former vice-president. My personal involvement was diplomatically necessary." is to me a fairly convincing defense for the July call if someone chooses to base impeachment on that event.

More confusing is that a situation with such an obvious defense is what has triggered this instead of the mountain of other issues.

A lot of choices made during marriage are dependent on both people. One spouse will take a job that involves travel means the other cannot if they have a child. Or one spouse could be stay-at-home, while the other works (once again, generally for children). When choices are made for the benefit of the couple, then both members should face the results of those choices.
