It's extremely American (not sure about other western countries) to judge people, especially men, who are living at home in a very negative light.

Old reference but the classic song "Scrubs" by TLC is is about not wanting to date a "scrub" and describes a "scrub" as "lives at home with your mama"

Conversely, in many Asian countries it's common to live at home until well into your 30s and 40s. In know families in most Asian countries where 3 generations live in the same house.

You can go through the dating sites in various countries here and see 30, 40, 50yr olds still living in their parents house. (it's a standard question on many Asian oriented dating sites) They may have studied abroad, or lived else where for a while but moved back in and no one blinks an eye. There's no or very little stigma unlike the USA.

> Furthermore, how could Japan have turned even a decisive naval advantage into victory against the US?

Erm, by conquering the Philippines, China, and Korea. Japan had no reason to invade the US proper, its only goal was conquest of the Asian continent. Japan did conquer the Philippines for a short time, before the US counter-attacked to recapture it.

Japan had no reason to conquer the USA. Japan wanted to build the Greater East Asia Co-Propserity Sphere: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_East_Asia_Co-Prosperit...

Japan absolutely had a crushing victory vs United States Asiatic Fleet, and WON in Philippines. It was the pesky Pacific Fleet (and its carriers) that came in later and saved the day. Atlantic-fleet was busy with the German front.

If Japan won the Battle of Midway and finished off the US Pacific Fleet, Japan probably would have created its imperialist dream. US would have retreated from the Pacific, lost the Philippines, and focused on fighting Germany (winning at least in the Atlantic). Allied efforts would have been on defending Australia from the imminent Japanese threat (but Australia was far outside the scope of Japanese imperialism, and probably safe from attack).

Of course, in real history, Japan lost the Battle of Midway in a crushing defeat. Japan lost important ships (all four carriers committed to the battle) and its most experienced admirals. From there, the USA was able to stall out the war, win in Europe, and then swing to the Pacific for a finishing blow.

-----------

EDIT: Consider how a "reverse Midway" timeline would have occurred. Instead of losing 4-carriers in the Pacific, Japan would have destroyed nearly all remaining US Pacific Carriers. (!!)

The USA would have to enter 1942 with ONE carrier remaining in the pacific. It would have lost Midway, Australia would be threatened (but likely not taken, as it wasn't part of Japanese imperialism plans). Britain / Dutch / America would have pooled resources into defending Australia while retreating from the greater Pacific.

The Pacific Theater was extremely close. USA would have done far better, and had far less risk if we just attacked Japan first.

------------

With only one or two capital ships left in the Pacific, why would the USA even decide to attack Japan anymore? Especially when the Allies were pursuing "Europe First" strategy? It was far more likely for the USA to give up in the Pacific and let Japan keep its new empire.
There is a potential criminal risk if a relationship can be construed as nonconsensual, coerced, or quid pro quo.

More generally, there's a tremendous civil liability, both personally to the principles involved and the firm, through such activity. A liability which may be entirely independent of the apparent (or actual) consensuality at the time, and which might be filed by non-participants (e.g., other employees perceiving sexual favouratism or discrimination).

A principle function of a corporation is as a risk-externalising, and limiting, legal structure. (This is literally stated in some forms of organisation, as with an LLC: limited liability corporation.) The principle job of management and oversight is to maximise the reward-to-risk ratio.

Company founders openly and documentedly treating the employee pool as their personal coital resource is a risk in the extreme.

That's a very charitable reading of GP's statement. I mean, here's what GP said:

> This is a huge improvement against regular blood presure monitors (which are heavy, and nonportable).

Regular BP monitors are not heavy or nonportable in any objective sense; and claiming this product is a "huge improvement" implies existing monitors are relatively "hugely" more heavy or hugely more nonportable. That isn't true as a point of comparison, and what was I remarking on.

I think eventually they'll legalize the apps, just a year or so ago I saw they were looking at it. The uproar over Uber leaving might be just what's needed to make some progress on that front.

Perhaps what is most frustrating is that the legal situation makes it impossible to do something like what Grab does in Asia, where a user just asks for a ride and both taxis and private cars participate as suppliers.

> As the [2] reference says, unless FB has suddenly grown a backbone with regards for truth over dollars, then any new effort will fail in the same way it did last time

I find it somewhat sanctimonious for the traditional news media to be calling out Facebook for favoring dollars over truth when they themselves were just as key as Facebook was to normalizing and publicizing Trump. CNN executives made a conscious decision to give Trump lots of coverage, in an effort to compete with Fox News. They too presented Trump's views as being just as legitimate and valid as the views of those opposing him.
But in all fairness, why would anyone just "want a non-x86 desktop" (as in: "anything but x86"). Doesn't make sense to me...
Assuming a 25 year career, you replace 4% of the workforce every year, so just hiring an even number of females would be more than that. (I don't know what the retirement age is for loggers, I'd guess younger than 65 based on it being a union physical labor job)
Note, if the three comparisons are sufficiently predicable, then your transformation would be _less_ efficient than the simple branches.

A predicable branch is almost free in a modern processor.
I'm a Gen X-er, and people at my high school were joining the military almost entirely for the touted financial and education benefits. I had multiple friends who went into various branches and I don't recall a single one joining with the expectation that they wanted to go out and kill people.

Having said that, though, do you remember people in that age bracked signing up in the aftermath of 9/11? They were doing so explicitly because they wanted to go out and "fight back." And we've been at war in those areas ever since. I don't think it's particularly plausible that, after nearly two decades of constant deployment to war zones in the Middle East, anyone would sign up for the Marines with the expectation that they would not be required to go kill for their country.
After years of doing it, I was very very sick of it and just wanted out. I'm a developer by "heart" and I just want to build and tinker. I do love spreadsheets, and I love the thrill/ups/downs of business, but the monotony is what kills me. I have another company I'm investing all my time into that I am optimistic of, and it's new and fresh again.

One Time Password (OTP) via email is at least as secure as any service that provides password reset as degenerate cases of those services resembles OTP via email anyway. (There are a lot of users out there using such a degenerate case already today. It's amazing how many users have fallen into a "reset password only" workflow to login to things.)

Magic links that embed the OTP inside of a clickable URL have a couple added threat scenarios, mostly revolving around the tenuous connection between app launching URL custom schema and OS/App Store/User Permissions. In some, but not all cases, OS/App Stores make it hard or unlikely for a third party to intercept those URLs, but not always impossible. There's no real central registry for the custom schema between App Stores, for one example.

The successor to custom schemas "Universal Links" (pushed by PWA standards among other things) have an interesting mitigation in requiring the links to be HTTPS, with TLS-verifiable metadata that promises that link is to a domain that the App author clearly controls before passing things on to the App. It's not a perfect mitigation, but a useful one as part of a larger defense in depth, depending on your application/site's threat model.
I said it can come across as disingenuous, largely because the original statement didn't seem ambiguous to me, nor I suspect to the people who downvoted you. And sometimes people pretend not to have understood something, as a way to indirectly criticize it without having to get specific or engage directly. The topic being potentially a controversial one (relating to gender), it seemed like you might have been hinting that the statement was sexist without actually saying why. But I don't know what your actual intent was. (And I'm still not sure whether you have a disagreement with the main substance, i.e. you doubt there would be a relevant difference in prevalence of calorie restriction in men and women, or you think the use of 'superficial' was disrespectful, or something else.)

I duno, what you say sounds right but my experience seems to be the opposite, i can never find anything that fits in physical shops, everything seems to be stocked for either obese or tall people, i'm slim and on the shorter side (but not very short)... alternatively perhaps I just expect shopping to actually be efficient, i hate spending ages shopping, but perhaps frequency is the only way you can find a good fit... and the only thing I have managed to figure out so far is that fit is important.

My theory right now is simply that on average women have the will power to spend enough time and energy on the task regardless... men might have the desire to look good, but when faced with the reality of time and money required to achieve it say fuck no, it doesn't hold their interest enough.

I'd be curious how they implement updating. AFAICT this is the thorniest part of working with existing open source solutions. When working with ANNOY in the past I've had data small enough to be able to recompute the full index in the background every few seconds in a background process and then swap in the built index to the process serving similarity queries.

(you can see the VERY "research quality" code on Github, here's a decent starting place https://github.com/hyperstudio/spectacles/blob/master/specta...)

EDIT: from the insertion docs https://milvus.io/docs/guides/milvus_operation.md#Insert-vec... it seems that they still ask you to re-build your indices after you insert vectors, although in some cases they can tell that they need to re-build the indices for you. Looks like the major value adds here are potentially shifting computation to the GPU and building multiple indices. I'll certainly evaluate this next time I'm building a project around vector search.
> arguing about the military-industrial complex

Although it was almost 30 years later, you could also quote Eisenhower's parting words:

"In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military–industrial complex."
"solving" wealth inequality doesn't mean making everyone's wealth equal though, I think the problem lies with the inability to afford housing, food, and healthcare. If people are able to comfortably live I doubt they'd care that some people have way more money than them.

There’s plenty of data showing that conditions have improved around the world.

There were way more socialist and right wing dictators in the 1970s. Even in the early 90s than today.

Extrajudicial killings, independent courts, poverty via failed economic ideologies or resistance to adopting modern industry/markets, etc has all significantly declined and conditions have improved.

The world will always need constant maintenance and good things stagnant and need reforming. History has a habit of repeating itself but rarely to the same degree of failure as lessons do get learned and quality of life always increases.

Most basements have small windows at the top and many have light wells, where the ground outside is dug away to allow light in (and to make a place for a ladder for fire safety).

No need to take a dishonest route when the taxista knows you'll pay $50+ because it's late at night, you just want to go home, and the next taxista you see if you want to wait 15min longer is colluding to also charge you $50+. It's in their best interest to just gouge you and then rush you to your destination so they can pick up the next person.

This is a fundamental competitive advantage of Uber and co: I see the price upfront.

And I don't need cash. Taxistas acting like they have no change to guilt you, the tourist, into just handing over the whole bill is all too common. Gets pretty old always ensuring you have small enough bills to pay for a taxi when you're just trying to stay out late and have a good time.

I can't really take anyone seriously saying they prefer taxistas here in latam just because it somehow went off without a hitch on their one week visit.

Wonder what other states have done privatization... I know I was reading in Texas, driving schools are allowed to give you your driving exam, so you can do the written test online and the driven test with the same driving school you bought your lessons from. I thought that was kinda cool and unique. So be useful if you are an adult who never got their license but don't really have any family or friends to let you use their car for a test. I know someone who refuses to let their adult child have a driver license as long as they still live at home because they fear a rise in insurance rates due to their age. I think i'd be cool if high school had driver ed again like in the old days.

It is typical for academics to visit both potential and current sponsors to discuss research funding and collaborations. It is not typical for sponsors to own private islands, and I think visiting for a day is common but a few hours sounds short (but for a one-day visit, the discussions themselves would only be a few hours). These visits are generally paid for by the sponsor (flights, hotels).

<But I’m not so sure about #3.

It was happening, but it was done by people from political parties visiting those voters in person at their doorsteps (I know of it from documentaries), obviously way more expensive and time consuming than ads, and ineffective when done in a foreign accent or language or without other means of identification/verification, so people outside the US had it a lot harder to influence those voters.
> Professor Lloyd also visited Epstein’s private island, though for only a few hours for lunch

Normally one would give the benefit of the doubt, but given the abhorrent acts people were perpetrating or turning a blind eye to in this case, I'm inclined not to. Hence this question of fact:

Unless there are credible witnesses attesting to the fact that he spent his few hours on that island eating lunch, the report should refrain from speculation and simply say "he visited Epstein's island for a few hours." We don't know what he was doing.

As I know it lotus is a real interesting snack but it tastes awful.

You can eat a lot of the parts of the lotus but the pods are a common quick eat.

It's like a bag of individually wrapped candy. Except when you doubly unwrap and eat them the fun stops and you realise it's pretty bland.

But it's something to do to pass the time and probably pretty healthy.

I tried to see if any lotus (many breeds out there) is a narcotic but most people mix it (blue lotus) with opiates and other drugs to actually get high so it seems like mostly a mythical dream.
