Honestly, after a glance at the links, they don't inspire confidence in me either. There are papers about very small changes on very rare types of cancer, measured by proxy on a species where it's common; papers criticizing the critics claiming association with interested parties (what is a perfectly fine thing to claim, but what is it doing in a scientific paper?); and the only wide review I could find claims that the literature has very weak conclusions that are not sufficient to claim any danger.

As usual, it's not the scientists that are wackos, it's the press that is claiming things completely different from what they say. There are proposals for better test equipment that should be taken, but I don't see any other claim for change there.

> At the same time, everybody seems to accept that the chance of getting cancer in your lifetime has risen to about one in three for men and one in five for women.

The wildest of the claims anywhere on the linked papers is a ~10% increase on the rate of one of the rarest types of cancer, so this line of research won't give you the answers you are looking for.
I'm glad you find interest in this work.

Thank you for the links, I did not know we could do computation with... chemistry! As I'm not familiar with that, I do not understand everything. Can you point me to a list of the interactions of your system?

Formality indeed looks promising. I still have a lot to learn about EAL in order to forge my opinion, but maybe it is the "sweet spot". For example, Formality does not need a GC, whereas Éole does, which is time consuming. On the other hand, Éole (if it works) is completely general. But then, not being "completely general" isn't necessary a problem, and Formality seems to do very well.

Please note that Éole is not proven yet, and I'm looking for counter examples that might settle the case. I will actually be happy if someone "break" the system!

Yes, "leftist" is referring to the most radical part of the Democratic party, which is trending more socialist. So both parts are correct.
Room service falls pretty squarely into the category of things hotels can (and many do) simply drop if they want to simplify. I travel a lot and I don't think I've gotten room service in at least a couple of decades.

A lot of the robotic stuff is mostly silly in any case. I sometimes stay at the Yotel in NYC which has a robot gadget to store luggage. It's amusing theater but usually you just give your luggage to a person because the robot is so slow (and space inefficient so it runs out of lockers).

>The CEO of Pacific Gas & Electric Corp. told California energy regulators that the state will likely see blackouts for another 10 years like the one imposed last week that left as many as 800,000 customers without power.

Not only that, but it's impossible to claim that future blackouts won't be of the same magnitude. The blackouts are determined by weather patterns, none of which can be predicted this far out. It's entirely possible we get another weather forecast in a year that calls for the same region-wide high winds and dryness.

The problem is space. To put your elevator in the wall you need the wider wall -- less space for guests when the elevator isn't in use. You probably also need something between the floor joists which may or may not be empty of beams.

Noise of the mechanism is also concerning, and safety (see other reply) are also issues. The loss of floor space is the big one.

This is pretty normal, especially when their are lots of rival companies doing the same thing. I used to work for a food ordering company and they felt they had no choice but to advertise their own name as rivals were using their brand name as a keyword. It wasn't cheap either, some weeks it could be as much as a few hundred euro.

Personally, I feel it crosses am ethical line. As a customer if I search for foo.bar and the first couple of result are for rival companies then Google isn't providing me with the service it claims it would. And as a business I would be forced to effectively double spend. Firstly, I would be spending time and effort on SEO to get to the top of the rankings, and then spent again to get to the top of the adverts that are obfuscating the real search results.

I know Google is a for-profit company operating in a free economy, but they still have to be ethical in what they do.

> specifically, the only way a 35-year-old is not a "culture fit" in "a small company run by 20-something whose only social life is their colleagues" is if that company is discriminating by age.

So you, as a 35 year old, want to work in a company that has a 14 hour days, including at least one weekend work culture which is what created a nearly forced socialization with one's coworkers who are in their early twenties?

If so, I'm pretty sure you would be accepted in the open arms if you

a) take their kind of salary ( i.e. take a pay cut )

b) work the 14 hour days (i.e. take another pay cut )

c) tolerate their social quirks -- those that do not socialize with others outside their tiny world for 14 hours a day 6-7 days a week are going to be rejected by the randos they meet in random places, repeating the cycle.

It isn't obvious to me why they think the incentives align for making Australians less secure. If nobody cares, why not write laws that protect everyone including politicians?

The Liberals literally called the Federal Police down on the AWU and notified the press before the raid. For those who aren't Australian the AWU is a union that is basically part of the Labor party organising body. Are federal politicians really so stupid as to think this stuff isn't going to be used against them at some point? Police enforcement actions are clearly entering the world of the political federally and probably in Victoria. There is a lot of talk about ICAC. China is breathing down our necks to gain more access to our computer networks, our University networks were hacked just the other week. This is not hypothetical stuff for our politicians; these are all actions targeting people like them.

I can all but guarantee that there is a technician at any Australian digital-communication company who can be bribed by a foreign actor to hand over all communication a given politician has made on that service.

Ultimately it's a consequence of privatization. Power in California (and particularly PG&E) has been poorly managed for decades and focused on profit at the expense of safety measures, maintenance, etc. Even if these blackouts were a necessary safety measure, the way they were performed is a great example of this - they failed to properly notify customers, their website was broken, their services available for people with medical needs were inadequate, etc. The only way to explain how poorly it was handled is cost-cutting - they had plenty of time in advance to prepare for this.

I'm not really sure whether strong regulatory oversight of PG&E would fix things or if the state just needs to take over. I'm sure privatized power works in other places but I've lived in this state for decades and PG&E has always been a disaster company with a high death count that pays out to investors and execs aggressively.

It’s rapidly becoming in the interests of US fossil fuel companies to let the oil price spike so they can reap massive profits. The status quo is massively changing due to fracking.

EDIT:
Look at this graph of US net imports of oil (etc). The bottom of the graph is zero. We are perhaps months away from being a net exporter. There are caveats, like the fact that the new oil (light) the US produces is not the oil (ie Heavy) that US refineries are optimized for, but this is temporary. Refineries can and will be retooled. Saudi Arabia cannot take the position of the US as primarily a customer (vs competitor) of oil for granted. https://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/hist/LeafHandler.ashx?n=pet&s=m...

We are bathed in radiation everyday.

So guess what, the people who say 5G is unsafe, are also the same people that will say flying is unsafe, or using a microwave is unsafe, or eating a banana is unsafe, or being in your car is unsafe, or using your phone is unsafe. Because all these things emit radiation.

Do people care about that though? No. The effects of radiation are grossly exaggerated, and frankly any negligible effects we feel are just the price we pay for living in high tech times. I doubt anyone wants to go back to a tech free lifestyle just so they can live maybe a few more years only to die of something else anyway.

So yes, it’s quackery to say 5G is unsafe and the only reason an article like this would rise to the top is so people could come out and trash it. You want to see scientific comments then go to more interesting articles.
It is, because if you assume the worst case of perfect 100% absorption, we're still talking about orders of magnitude too little power to matter.

Plentiful nutrition which has led to 90% of the population of the USA being overweight, obese, or overfat is another potential culprit. Women suffering from anorexia developed fewer tumors. Similar experiments on lab animals in a controlled setting have the same result. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11246846 I believe there are other changing risk factors in behavior as well, for instance women who have never had a child are more likely to develop breast cancer and fertility rates have dropped dramatically over the last 100 years.

Cell phones have only been widely deployed in the last two decades, and I don’t think those trends in cancer rates you’re referencing correlate very well to cellular deployment.

I’d still be curious to see more research happening in the field of millimeter waves, personally I don’t see this technology as very useful right now either compared to traditional cellular due to its lack of penetration.

> It’s true that if you can manage to belong within certain in-groups in these places

Let’s be clear, the majority of people fall within these in-groups. As contrasted to say California or New York, where the in-groups are defined in a much more class-based way that excludes most people.

As to the rest belt—that’s an odd point of comparison. Those economies are devastated, while California’s is thriving. I’m thinking of places that still have an economy—Kansas, Nebraska, Texas, Idaho, Utah, Wisconsin, etc. These places manage to have half the poverty rate of California. California has about double the number of homeless families with children (adjusted for population) as Kansas. More than double that of Texas or Mississippi. (New York has more than 10 times the rate of homeless families as Texas or Kansas.)
Even those companies who know exactly what they need don't only need programmers. They also need architects and solution providers. Who are mostly better-paid than the programmers themselves.

1. Yes the index is updated every time you visit. It appends the new terms, and keeps all old ones

2. That is a bit more difficult and not as reliable unfortunately. If there is a lazy load on the page it often fails to capture the content, because it starts indexing the page after the initial page load is finished/successful. These are improvements we want to work on a bit later.

3. For about a year's worth of history(~20k pages), without also capturing the screenshots, it needs about 400mb of storage. Indexing performance is still good with 20-25k pages but querying gets slower. So you won't feel the performance on your system with a reasonably fast computer (recommended 8gb of ram, and a dual core with at least 2GHz) We are about to work on performance improvements to make it fast and scalable much beyond that amount and with less resources.

4. Unfortunately we didn't get around to optimise the indexing for CKJ characters, but all latin characters should work fine.

The Sun transfers orders of magnitude more heat to your body than cell towers or your phone.

The problem with every argument about radiation from cell phones being dangerous is that for every proposed mechanism, the Sun is orders of magnitude more damaging.

The obvious worries with cell phones are repeated stress injuries, insomnia and disruption of personal relationships. There's just no plausible mechanism for the radiation to be damaging, though.
