> Exhibit A are the several liberals that have been slaughtered while proving that muslims are not violent by hitchhiking or hiking through muslim lands.

Yet far fewer in number than the amount of muslims who've been shot dead by Christians and white supremacists even just within the last year, yet it's interesting that "muslims are violent" is the theory you latch on to. Why's that?

> It would surely show either that we are actually all the same, or that we are not all the same. Cue the subsequent rationalization and excuse making when the results contradict the cult doctrine.

"Liberals" don't believe we are all the same. Such an experiment would show the differences in culture, socialisation and upbringing that "liberals" very much believe in. Your ignorance of such things, or dismissal of them as "excuse making", shows that you lack the nuance needed to properly assess such a study.
I don't. I always go straight for comments, unless I already recognize by the title or domain name that the article is something I'd like to read. Then I skim comments to learn whether the article is worth reading. Even if it isn't, if I want to participate in a thread that's about the article directly (vs. an interesting tangent), I go back and at least skim the article, just to not be that person who comments on TFA without reading it.

Closed, duplicate.
For babies, not for adults. Adult animals in most species can't even drink milk, they can't digest it anymore past infancy.

Biologically this means that the infant would release the mother so that they could have another child, so there is biological adaption on most species to not drink milk past a certain age.

And we have it too via lactose intolerance, which is normal.

However, some relatively small percentage of humans developed the ability to drink milk around 10k years ago in Turkey, but it's not perfect. It gets worse with age as one would expect.

Human babies shouldn't drink cow's milk, it's completely unnecessary and there are questions about it's effect on long-term human health.

Yesterday I saw a documentary (Zembla) about the veal industry in The Netherlands (largest in EU, which exists mostly for export, also to US and China).

Terrible conditions for the calves, but what most surprised me is that the farmers only feed them with milk! This way their meat will have the light color associated with 'fresh, young' veal.

From the 1,500 veal producers, only a single one is biological, giving the calves proper food. Result is their meat is red in color.

Sounds like room for improvement: Shout "earthquake" through the phone's speakers (overriding any volume setting), flash "earthquake" on the screen (turning the screen on if necessary, but if that takes a second, don't have it delay the sound output but do it in parallel), and especially without unlocking or opening the app.
Also the critical thinkers seem to never have even checked the source of this 600KWh / transaction claim.

If you actually cared to check [0] you would see that this claim is coming from estimating mining revenue and then sending 60% of that revenue to mining costs.
That calculation is actually:

Mining revenue(in USD) * 0.6 / 0.05 / amount of transactions = KWh per transaction

Embarassing!

That's a great principle, but they key to realize its value is actually learning from it, and one of the most important lessons here is that in startups, spectacular successes are driven by luck. If that one lesson doesn't sink in, then all other "learning from failure" is akin to training your machine learning model on random noise.

There've been recent suggestions that older, post-1950 buildings, which generally used welded joints now known to be inadequate, may not fair well or may even fail catastrophically. Older steel buildings used riveted connections, while newer buildings use improved welding techniques and, at critical points, bolting. Riveting is more resilient, while bolting is considerably stronger.

Quantum Algorithms 4 Mixed Binary Optimization Applied to Transaction Settlement
Easy: you don't fret over low probability events that are unlikely to cause you major damage anyway. (I've lived through multiple major earthquakes! meh, what's one more.)
"We’ve demonstrated for the first time that a quantum computer can be used to solve a simplified version of a securities settlement optimisation problem, including modelling credit and collateral pools. If we were to scale up to real-world volumes of tens of thousands of transactions in a batch, we’d need to first wait a few years for quantum hardware to evolve and mature. Every few months, the number of qubits goes up – but to run securities settlement netting, we’d need orders of magnitude more qubits than exist at present.”

Disclaimer: I'm a software engineer working on the core search engine at algolia, but the opinions of this post are my own and not an official statement.

Search is a hard job, and it's hard in many ways. The most obvious difficulties are related to relevance, and yes this part is specific to each business case. But that's not the only issues one has to solve when implementing search.

Even without speaking about the software you run, running it so that you have high availability, fast search results, fast enough to provide search as you type, reliable indexing, low latency in several regions ... This is the first service we provided, this is what SaaS is about. Being on inside of a SaaS compagnie, shows you the amount of works we save to our customers.

Then, about software solution itself. Providing search is not just about running generic piece of code. It's a whole eco system, continuously evolving. Working with a SaaS solution is hiring a team of more than hundred engineers dedicated to search. From the core software to frontend UI modules, the amount of engineering needed is way above what most companies can dedicate to search.

Back to relevance, some aspects are specific to business logic but some are also specific to search. We provide the search knowledge, so that you can focus on your own issues.

And for the software behind our services, we're not trying to build the one size fits all search tool, but a tool dedicated to the kind of search needed in today's web applications. I'm obviously biased, but I strongly believe that the kind of search we focus on, fast accurate top results rather than exhaustive search, fits terribly well our users' needs.
I believe cheap servos are inherently very discrete due to noise in the "potentiometers" used: it will not be possible to do precise positioning no matter how exact your timing pulses are. But thats just a guess. If its a noisy potetiometer/wiper but monotonic it should be possible to correct in software. If its non-monotonic and has reverses gradient it will be much harder or impossible I guess.
It wasn't so long ago that the Catalan language was banned. People who were alive then are still alive today. It's more convenient to buy an umbrella on a sunny day. If they get independence today, they can spend years building up the strength they need to keep out those who would try to destroy their community later on. To describe anything as "historical grievance" that isn't happening right now is naive. It hasn't taken long for formerly second world states like Poland and Hungary to prove that democracy rule of law, even in the EU, aren't things that you can count on for decades to come.

In first world European cases, though, I think it's much less about independence and far more about being a top level subdivision of a country. Catalan, Flanders, Scotland etc want to become member-states in the EU with a seat at that table. They're after a seat at the table that decides the rules that govern them, and want to be able to defend their own interests. This is, after all, the point of a federation, so it's a natural thing to want: If it weren't a valid desire, the heads of government of the member states would not have a role in the EU. It's fairly common for territories to be cut up and distinct parts removed once they join a federation, especially when they're at least as large and diverse as Europe (take a squizz at India's states).

UI-wise, once I've clicked on a person in the graph, I don't see how to get back to the whole graph with that person not highlighted.

More importantly, I don't understand what "collaboration" means. People who have ever touched the same file? I don't even see files, only "areas". And there don't seem to be any edge weights, i.e., if person A has collaborated with person B once, and is collaborating with person C every day, the A-B and A-C edges in the graph look the same, so I don't see if there really is a close collaboration or not.

The latter point also means that your example from https://www.networkperspective.io/hr/ is very artificial, as a real graph will pretty much never have "brokers" or "peripheral" nodes.

(These are first impressions without having read any docs, if there are any.)

For whatever it's worth, I'm working on a big project with many collaborators, and I do use git annotate to figure out who knows what or who would be a good person to tag for a code review. But this also means that I know that not every change to a file should be weighted equally. For example, renaming something in one file might mean that I need to touch 50 others, and I will show up as a "collaborator" on those files even if they are outside my area of expertise. I really need to use some more complex judgement to see who is a "main" contributor to a file, especially to the parts relevant to my current work.

So I think that very naively mining this data and dumping it on the screen as a big ball of string is not very useful. Deeper analysis would be needed IMHO.
Probably just a regular idiot.
Mushroom foraging was common in my family and the ruleset was quite simple – we learnt this as children:

- you have to know a mushroom, that you want to eat, by 100%. You not only have to know the appearance in all possible states (young/old, colour variations, environmental context) but also you have to know the lookalikes and how to differentiate. The point here is: NEVER follow any generic rules (like avoid mushrooms with this or that feature), but reliably identify the type you want to eat!

- to learn to absolutely positively identify a mushroom therefore takes a lot of time. In my childhood I learnt about a dozen edible types, that I would dare to eat. And this knowledge only applies to the geographic region I lived. The same mushroom might have other lookalikes in other regions.

- if there is the slightest doubt, do not eat it.

- when picking, make plausibility checks. For example: does the sample fit to the environment?

- if you have trouble to differentiate a potentially edible mushroom from its lookalike, avoid both.

- if there is the slightest doubt, do not eat it.

- as long as you are learning a new type, do not eat it. If you pick one to examine at home, keep it separated from the others. Buy samples from the market for comparison.

- when you are sure that you have learnt a new edible type and that you can absolutely identify it, pick one. Double check with the books, when at home. Ask someone else for reassurance, if possible.

- When still sure: prepare one very small sample together with the other mushrooms and only for one member of the family (in my case, that would usually be my father). Observe for reactions for at least 24 hours. If everything is fine, repeat with a somewhat larger ratio the next time. Do so one more time and if everything is still fine, that type would be approved for family use. As a child, it was always a little exciting, not to say creepy, when father tried a new type. But never anything happened of course.

- Some mushrooms only become edible with certain preparation. Make sure to know them. My family would usually avoid those.

- if there is the slightest doubt, do not eat it.

Except that his life was actually fairly unusual.

There's quite a gap between Bach the Person and Bach the Composer, and it's not obvious that it's possible to really appreciate the music without appreciating the person.

Classical music relies on standardised narratives that cluster around ideals of hard work, repetitive action, restraint, intellectual prowess, powerful but tightly controlled emotional expression, transcendence, and individualised heroism.

All of those narratives are are historically questionable.

The best creative artists have always been subversive and difficult. It's more realistic to see historic composers as part of an unbroken line of interesting people that continues through to the present - not as marble museum pieces of perfection.
