You can just put the single word in quotes. As far as I can tell, it works the same way as the + used to.
That has not been my experience at all. Trader Joe's, for one, has sold full-fat Greek yogurt for at least ten years. It's in a blue and white container. Thicker than sour cream and will probably kill me at 50, but damn good!
Another reason could be: if you systematically scrub everything, then a third party wouldn't be able to use the fact that you scrubbed something as a hint that the thing had valuable information in it.

e.g.: if you use an encrypted chat app ONLY after a murder occurred, then this would be suspicious. If you always use encrypted chat apps, then there's no information hint being given about your possible involvement with the murder.
I don't know what kind of cooking you do, but in my kitchen substituting vinegar for wine would be considered food-crime.
I will mention though that food is always a lot more than a collection of sugars/fats etc.

Putting a date into your blended oat milk is, nutritionally speaking, very likely immensely different (and very likely more beneficial) than putting the equivalent amount of refined sugar. Then we havent even touched on the many other benefits - like behaviorally you are less likely to overindulge with dates than adding another teaspoon of sugar etc.
In my view this is some kind of argument as for why you should not (ab)use TPM as general purpose HSM (ie. for something that it is not designed for) and it does not say much about the security when it is used correctly (as a local attacker that has TPM in state where it will sign literally anything I throw at it, what exactly does key recovery attack buy me?)
Voter manipulation, hate speech, sales of guns, anti-vaccination propaganda are quite OK though.

Just watch your veggies.
Every friend I have with a job that involves picking up something heavier than a laptop more than twice a week eventually finds a way to slip something like this into conversation: “Bro, you don’t work hard. I just worked a 4700-hour week digging a tunnel under Mordor with a screwdriver.”

They have a point. Mordor sucks, and it’s certainly more physically taxing to dig a tunnel than poke at a keyboard unless you’re an ant. But, for the sake of the argument, can we agree that stress and insanity are bad things? Awesome. Welcome to ~~programming~~ grad school.

from the classic "Programming Sucks" article.
Here is a simple explanation:

1. The universe is composed of things.

2. We can use the computer to store information about those things (this is the data).

3. In order to gain useful insights about those things, we want to do operations on the data. I.e. to compute. computation is done by algorithms.

4. Data structures are the bridge between the data about things and the algorithm. They hold the data such that the algorithm will have an easier time computing.
Countries Are Not Anecdotes
I agree. I think the segment of people who are willing to pay full price but pirate purely for financial reasons is vanishingly small.

Most pirates are trying content they would not be willing to buy, which expands the market for most content (provided that content hasn't already been carpetbombed via ads across many media channels so most people already know about it).
Couldn't this really be just due to some kind of a Hawthorne effect?

Apple benefits from a robust app market, and many apps are ad supported. This rolls up into more demand for iPhones.
Yeah, and there was a constitutional amendment that changed that. There is no constitutional amendment that removes the word "unreasonable" from the 4th. CBP's argument is that these searches are reasonable, given the reduced expectation of privacy.
That's what you must have selected when you installed the app.
Doesn't a lease mean that you take custody of the goods and return them at the end? IIUC this is much more like a service akin to cloud offerings. Who pays the power bill for the server(s) subscribed to? Is the subscription one-for-one with serial numbers? Or if you deactivate the server and activate it again later could you get a different one?
The nice thing about the modern world is that nobody has to make the decision to do that or be aware. That sort of discrimination can filter through ML-derived correlations at two, three or more levels removed, and every human being can be as innocent as can be.

Americans are being pumped full of divisive rhetoric from every angle and their politicians have been swinging to the right for something like forty years. The right wing realized the population elects R or D with something like a coin toss rate independent of what platform the party runs upon decades ago. As a party, the Rs decided to just always push their party platform to the right at every election, regardless of win or lose. It worked, and we’re four decades into the practice. All the while, the Ds also moved right in response to the center moving and not knowing the same premise. This is for national elections.
Yes. The Constitution is very careful in its use of "people" (or "person") and "citizens".
It is, by the police
On the other hand, it's been shown that even without information defined as PII, it's very easy to identify individuals from a combination of other data points. When you're dredging the ocean for correlations, this will just automatically catch everybody anyway, whether intentionally or not.
Appreciate this feedback, and sorry those docs didn't help you much. If you'd be willing to open a github issue with some details about your need to translate the commands in our docs into something more useful for your use case, we'll look into this further: https://github.com/cockroachdb/docs/issues. The input would be greatly appreciated.
Instagram is quite a trashfire these days.

There's a couple handfuls of people I know personally who still use it as all-photo Facebook, and just post pictures of their dogs, or their kids, or their lunch.

Everything else is wall-to-wall hustling. Explicitly sponsored ads, business accounts promoting their stuff, meme pages that are hawking stuff in the comments, managed celebrity accounts, fitness models shilling supplements, and on and on and on.
That’s because you’re supposed to format it and install Linux on it.

Seriously though, I had no idea it was this bad. Just shooting themselves in the foot. Again.
Oh, absolutely; I'm saying it's not any better to substitute, say, almond milk for cow milk. Worse, even; substituting vinegar for wine won't usually make the whole recipe fall apart altogether the way not enough fat will.
I constantly am fighting Hulu, the stream will crash. It looses my place, shows like 6 ads and is a pain to seek to the place I was last at. It’s also super jumpy and will jump out of the video if you look at the remote wrong. Such a messed up interface.
Some people might be fine with that, it's just the combination of an aptitude test with another type of metric they object to. Chicken soup and chocolate milk are both good, but maybe not mixed together.
I noted this at the end of my comment, but I'll elaborate:

Time zones do tend to be chosen such that inhabitants are within +/- 1 hour of solar time. If you look at the map at http://blog.poormansmath.net/images/SolarTimeVsStandardTimeV... , a switch to permanent DST in North America would make the continent a very bright red.
Okay, you made me actually click through the link, and I can find:

> As noted above, Hansen's model overpredicted the ensuing global warming thus far by approximately 15 to 25%. Thus if we estimate that the sensitivity of his model was 15 to 25% too high (which is an oversimplification, but will give us a reasonably accurate back-of-the-envelope estimate), ...

Predicting global warming for ~30 years within 25% in 1988 seems "pretty accurate" to me, isn't it? Surely it's a far cry from the skeptical position that models are so wrong that we can gain nothing from them.
Not just that, but the number of items in the list has grown overall. For example ‘File & Folders’ option is new in 13.

Yes, it isn't "Android", it is particular vendors or carriers that load the phone up with crapware, or pointless mods that make things worse (cough Samsung).

Podcast: Bob Kepford on Decoupled Content Management Systems
Europeans of the late 1400s and early 1500s weren't technologically "godlike" to the aztecs, incas or anyone else. It wasn't until the 1800s when industrial revolution in the US and Britain put the real separation between the west and the rest.

> Anyone doubting this just read the history, a handful of Spanish conquering a whole empire (twice!).

They didn't conquer the "whole empire". They conquered the elites. Big difference.

> Imagine if Spain wanted to engage in a full fledged war with the Aztecs or Incas.

Spain would have been utterly crushed. There is a reason why spain didn't wage a full fledged war against the aztecs or the incas.

> They could have easily wiped out everybody.

With what? A bunch of useless and inaccurate muskets?

I think you are highly overestimating what europeans were back then and their technological capabilities. Spain conquered the aztecs like the british conquered mughal india. They bought some elites, killed other elites and for whatever reason were at the right place at the right time to exploit the aztecs. Why and how is completely lost to history sadly.

But one thing we know for certain is that the atzecs elites were completely incompetent and ignorant and most likely divided. Which is a recipe for disaster. But all empires seem to verge towards that state amongst the elites - persians, romans, mongols, etc.

Service reconfiguration is a thing and, in systems that handle dependency management well, tends to not be too painful. (I'm in the process of writing a TypeScript library for doing exactly this, designed for NestJS but usable outside of it.)
This is true.

I think a lot of complaining about grad school comes from four areas:

1. As you point out people who become grad students are often fortunate people. They already have a college degree. They are able to do well enough at school to be accepted into a graduate program. This usually means that they could be getting paid 2-15X more while doing far less work at an industry job. So in comparison grad school is miserable.

2. Unlike a top high-skill job grad school is a uncertain career track. You can find out that you spent between 3-12 years of our life with very little to show for it researching something it turns out no one, including you, cares about. The uncertainty gets to some people.

3. PhD programs can place an enormous amount of pressure on the student to be independent, have new ideas and execute those ideas well. This can be a frightening experience.

4. In some fields very strange workloads placed on the student. For instance in some labs students run experiments that require performing a task every 40 minutes for 36-72 hours straight. If the task is not performed perfectly weeks of work is lost. The experiment might involve dangerous chemicals. This is like being a long haul trucker or sound engineer.
The article does say there are other causes. But social media took the previously invented 24-hour news cycle and all its ills, and put it on steroids.
Another interpretation of this data would be that causality runs in the other direction. You can also make up a plausible-sounding story for the mechanism - a dopamine response to stressful situations helps people solve their problems.
Achieving Equal Pay for Women in Sports
Bad article. Sell me on her poetry not her biography.
That clause simply provides one important reason why "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed". It's not a limitation or restriction on that right. For more an extensive deep-dive on the meaning of this amendment, see District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008): https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/554/570/#tab-opi...

> ... the Second Amendment’s prefatory clause announces the purpose for which the right was codified: to prevent elimination of the militia. The prefatory clause does not suggest that preserving the militia was the only reason Americans valued the ancient right; most undoubtedly thought it even more important for self-defense and hunting. But the threat that the new Federal Government would destroy the citizens’ militia by taking away their arms was the reason that right—unlike some other English rights—was codified in a written Constitution. ...

> Besides ignoring the historical reality that the Second Amendment was not intended to lay down a “novel principl[e]” but rather codified a right “inherited from our English ancestors,” Robertson v. Baldwin, 165 U. S. 275, 281 (1897), petitioners’ interpretation does not even achieve the narrower purpose that prompted codification of the right. If, as they believe, the Second Amendment right is no more than the right to keep and use weapons as a member of an organized militia — if, that is, the organized militia is the sole institutional beneficiary of the Second Amendment’s guarantee — it does not assure the existence of a “citizens’ militia” as a safeguard against tyranny ...

> Every late-19th-century legal scholar that we have read interpreted the Second Amendment to secure an individual right unconnected with militia service. The most famous was the judge and professor Thomas Cooley, who wrote a massively popular 1868 Treatise on Constitutional Limitations. Concerning the Second Amendment it said: (...)

> “It might be supposed from the phraseology of this provision that the right to keep and bear arms was only guaranteed to the militia; but this would be an interpretation not warranted by the intent. The militia, as has been elsewhere explained, consists of those persons who, under the law, are liable to the performance of military duty, and are officered and enrolled for service when called upon. (...) The meaning of the provision undoubtedly is, that the people, from whom the militia must be taken, shall have the right to keep and bear arms; and they need no permission or regulation of law for the purpose. But this enables government to have a well-regulated militia; for to bear arms implies something more than the mere keeping; it implies the learning to handle and use them in a way that makes those who keep them ready for their efficient use; in other words, it implies the right to meet for voluntary discipline in arms, observing in doing so the laws of public order.”
I'm not saying this is the case, but some fruits and vegetables have fiber that is sweet. And potentially date could act as a better emulsifier than sugar. I know people use honey and syrup over sugar in some cases -- not for the sweetness, but for the properties.

I like to blend dates in my protein shake. I think -- just like if you added blue berries or strawberries -- it gives a distinct flavor to the drink.

I'm not sure if that's desired for the oat milk or not. I'd think people would want their milk to be somewhat plain.
I think it's more of a will this update cripple our 20yr old in house developed app that is crucial for the business that either we don't know how to maintain or lost the source no longer working on the latest windows.

Previous employer, we were on WinXP and compiling a/ VS2003. Upgrade to Win7 mostly effectively crippled VS2003 for reasons I don't know. This necessitated porting our very large (100s of Millions of LOC in C++ to at least VS2008) set of in-house libraries. It should on paper be trivial, but it was a firm wide effort that spanned 18 months. Why? Because someone sent the CEO an xlsx that he couldn't open. This was circa 2007-2008. We were forced to upgrade OS and compiler for the new Office version, but it trickled into a firm wide rebuild of all C++ code. Wasnt pretty or fun.
> I'm pretty sure they meant "runs" in the sense of "runs the show" (make the majority of the decisions in Linux userland projects) not in the sense of "uses".

I was not meaning that in some twisted way. Most computers on modern Internet are smartphones — desktop use is slowly declining. And Google runs the show on the dominant smartphone platform. Red Hat's desktop is completely irrelevant in comparison.
Billion dollar franchises have always included a big dumb story, CoD, Warcraft, Diablo, Elder Scrolls ect. Even Doom has a story it's just there to be pushed aside, but still is a story. Pushing aside the story is part of what makes that game great fun.

The ludology/narrative split in games is always there even if you pick only one side. Walking sims still have gameplay and multiplayer first person shooters still have lore & world building.

I think "sign every commit useful?" is less about whether signing is useful, and more about the trade-off of signing every commit vs just signing a tag on a commit.

Signing every commit is going to make it a mindless task. It's easier to be vigilant when signing if you sign less frequently.

What trade-offs should be considered?
By my calculation the carnot efficiency for the jet operating temperature is about 85.5%: 1-T_cold/T_hot, where T_cold ~ 230K (it's quite cold at high altitudes) and T_hot ~ 1588K (or 2400 F, which is the hottest temperature in the Leap engine produced by GE, which powers the 737-Max [1]). This is only possible though because of GE's usage of the ceramic matrix composites (CMC) which allows for 150-200K hotter temperatures than classical alloys.

Now the current CMC method employed by GE uses silicon carbide, which has a melting temperature of about 3000K. If one day they could switch to hafnium carbide, with a melting temperature of more than 4100K, the carnot efficiency could reach more than 89%.

Israel is probably just too small of a market at the moment. In most European countries there still isn't a official Tesla store or service center.

I live in the Baltic's and a friend of a freind has a Model X which was involved in a minor accident (other drivers fault) last year. To get it repaired without affecting the warranty it had to be sent to Tesla, which meant it had to be taken to Finland (700km) or Germany (1000km).

Here's the original SEC complaint from March 2017:
https://www.sec.gov/litigation/complaints/2017/comp-pr2017-6...

First thought: settle with the SEC. Don't fight it.

Second thought: and a quick perusal of the original complaint finds multiple examples: if you're going to do something illegal don't write about your illegal activities in an email. Let alone explain "layering works like this..."

Third thought: I'm surprised it took this long to get these guys. There were a few spoof related cases back in 2016... Famously the London spoofer with s&p futures. This one didn't show up until 2017... And then took almost 3 years through a jury trial.

TLA+ and similar tools are certainly interesting but hardly something I could recommend as an early step to take for someone wanting to learn more about CS.

If you want to prove protocols correct, sure, but for someone wanting to move from knowing something about programming to something more, this is not one of the first (20) steps I would recommend.
Is it actually insecurity or is it that the US has been making a point to push back on China's claims? To me your framing makes it sound like China is all talk and posturing but it's difficult for me to believe they'd act with as much restraint if the only people around to scold them were the EU.
