Seriously though, we can't know every single third-party package under the sun. But this one is more important than the average.
Googling "does soy give you man tits" says otherwise.
Wow, if the creator of this website is reading - please stop with the crazy locked headers and auto-adjusting panels on the top and bottom.
Comment characters, and compound operators without ligatures, are ground glass in my eyes.

The first thing I checked for here was ligatures; this font would not have gotten five seconds of my time otherwise.

If one doesn't want ligatures, one turns them off. No one should design a programming font in 2020 without ligatures, just like no one should design a programming language in 2020 without a language server to handle editor services.

In a language like Haskell with many compound operators, the code just looks stupid and irritating without ligatures.

I may be at one extreme here, for I absolutely loathe comment characters. I've programmed preprocessors for each language that I use, with defaults that flush left is a comment (to be appropriately syntax colored, and with a convention for blocks that include indentation) and indented is code.
This was definitely an interesting read, and I'm sorry to say that I wasn't surprised with your results. I've been trying something similar, with the exception that I always immediately (within a week) found customers and handed the product to them, and abandoned the product if the response wasn't absolute euphoria. This saved me a ton of time.

More importantly - I just stopped doing those kinds of projects altogether. Why? Because you should do what you enjoy. Regardless of how much money you think it can make. Wasn't that the whole point of working for yourself in the first place?

If nothing comes of it, that's okay. At least you enjoyed yourself. The worst possible scenario is that you do something you're not enjoying and also don't make money - you have total control over one of those variables, as your own boss.
>In the EU it doesn't work like this.

Yep, it's much more selective in the EU. As long as you are in the good graces of those in power everything will be fine. If you aren't...

I mean browsers, then there was an app that did some phone activity tracking and all was fine until iOS had it's own app and for some reason the old app was kicked out from the store. Then there are the cases where Apple apps have special access to APIs but a popular application like Spotify was denied access. Can you link to the case you are mentioning?
India has the highest percentage of vegetarians of any country (at 38% of the population), yet they rank 128th out of 185 countries in life expectancy. Meanwhile, you look at the top 10 countries for life expectancy, and there's plenty of meat in the diet, including Hong Kong, who eat more fish and beef than Americans do, and Iceland, who consume at least 200 pounds of fish a year:

If you want professional pay, go work for a professional team. If you work for a school, you work for the school, not yourself. Pay the coaches the same as teachers, they don't have any right to revenues or profit sharing.
It’s ironic that an article about advertising having an inverse correlation with life satisfaction thrusts a popup ad when the page is opened! sigh It reminded me of the New York Times article on tracking on the web while NYT itself was using several trackers.
This paper makes so many convoluted and arbitrary decisions about what they are doing with the domain (i.e. how they're generating and measuring performance on their dataset), I don't think it should be considered legitimate publishable research until the model is checked in some sane manner.

At this point in time AI research is so saturated with hype and BS, it needs some sort of adversarial process to be taken seriously.
Some friendly advice: your charts are almost impossible to understand. They may make sense to you, but they are utterly meaningless to most anyone else. I suggest that as you continue writing, you should take a step back and try to read it from the point of view of someone that has no previous knowledge of anything about you. This could help you focus what you write about and make things more succinct, because most people won't read a wall of text either.

One other piece of advice is to cut down on what you're trying to do. Like you said, you have way too many projects going at once. Focus on a single project and stop worrying about trying to save the world. Dedicate 8 hours a day to the project and as you accomplish goals, move forward. Spend 1-2 hours a day exercising. And if you want to spend it on youtube videos, then use your 8 hours a day on that, but realistically that doesn't appear to be very promising.

I took a year off about 10 years ago and I had a single project I worked on 8 hours a day. Once I spent 3 weeks just trying to increase the accuracy of my OCR from 93% to 98%. It's dumb, but that's freedom to pursue things just to learn. Take advantage of your freedom by focusing on the long tail, you can go very very deep into areas where you normally wouldn't have the opportunity.
AAMC will never let this happen.

It isn’t. I was trying to do the purchase of the “acceleration boost” intentionally, and it took me a while to figure out how to do it, because the UX for it is unintuitive, and the whole upgrades menu itself is hidden behind at least 3 levels of clicks in the app.
Also links in different application will open in what Apple wants not in what browser/app you would like.
That's what I find strange too; I can afford to get the new iPhone every year or two if I wanted (most software engineers probably can), and yet I plan on keeping mine until it's dead, broken, or stolen. I don't own a car, but if I did it would probably the cheapest car in reasonably good shape that gets reasonably good gas mileage.

There's a part of me that wonders if a lot of it boils down to education. My brother-in-law is relatively smart and able to learn new stuff fairly quickly, but he doesn't really have any education past high-school. Being better trained at math and compsci would probably help him realize the value for his purchases a bit better.
I love firefox. The only big difference for now is that it is better integrated with windows. You can swipe back on the trackpad to go back and use your touchscreen seamlessly (even the keyboard pops up correctly without screwing the size of the window) Firefox doesn't do that well.
That was a blast to read, as someone else with far too many side projects (also struggling with the balance between prog projects and music projects). One theory of improvement would say you should subordinate all your resources to localizing/translating that app that already has a revenue foothold, because any additional revenue would then lengthen your runway before you'd have to go back to work.
I didn't envision a usecase, I just found the question of whether this is possible interesting. If I had to guess, this will break more things than it will help with - the filesystems are independent, not "synchronized".
I think there are a ton of services that could be more easily built (at least as proof-of-concept) if this kind of UI existed and developers didn't have to worry about pretty flashy GUIs. Also something like this could have more access to "native" stuff than current browsers.
You're explaining TCO. I understand how TCO works.

I'm going to rephrase my own argument because it doesn't appear you interacted with it: what part of your argument doesn't work for x86_64? "One would need to compile the code in complex ways: function calls would no longer map directly to CALL/RET instructions." Sure! That's arguably what makes it an optimization. Who cares? CPUs can loop, and so can the JVM.

I would maybe see your point if Clojure didn't already know how to do tail calls (and so would need to implement the allegedly complicated compilation step), but as I have pointed out several times: it already has `recur`, which lets you call a function without the JVM thinking there is a function call going on.
That's not how it works at all though. The games on the app store that make a lot of money are those that mercilessly try to rip people off. Gacha games are essentially gambling, whereas proper games with a story and gameplay earn very little.
> However, I'm not seeing conclusive proof that modern HDDs show performance variation with respect to radius.

They definitely still do; it's fundamental to drives that run at fixed RPM but maintain high areal density across the entire platter. One of the 1TB drives I have lying around does about 183MB/s at the beginning of the disk, 148MB/s in the middle, and 97MB/s at the end.
Have you been following the closures of law schools in recent years? In part it's because the cost of attending is so steep that it takes many years to pay off student debt at an entry level salary. As this fact becomes more widely known, and the career prospects for those who graduate from lower tier law schools become ever more dim, the trend will continue. Also, the intellectual demands of law vs. medicine vs. SWE are so very different in kind, it's hard for this MD to believe they are interchangeable. For example, about every decade I decide I'm going to try to learn how to program: after a few hours of complete failure, I abandon my efforts until the next time.

"An SE employee announced an updated clarification to the Code of Conduct (CoC) in the TL requiring the use of preferred pronouns if known; announcing that the change is in effect for moderator communications (among moderators or from moderators to a user)."

So, like I said, she was woke (used they to avoid "misgendering"), but not woke enough (didn't want to use "Xer" or "FlimFlam" or whatever).
> How exactly can you control the nuclear decay?

That's what the control rods are for. The uranium in one fuel rod in isolation decays at whatever natural rate, which would warm water but not boil it, and placing the rods near each other allows for the decay products (high energy particles) to interact with other fuel rods and induce more rapid decay.

The control rods slot in between the fuel rods, and absorb the decay products without inducing further nuclear decay. Usually these are graphite rods.

> How exactly does do the gears in the transmission move around and combine with eachother to create a specific gear ratio?

It really depends on the specific transmission, a manual transmission is using the shift lever movement to move the gears into place. An automatic transmission most likely uses solenoids to move things (a solenoid is basically a coil of wires around a tube with a moveable metal rod inside, when you put current through the wire, the metal rod is pulled into the tube, you attach the larger thing you want to move to the end of the rod (sometimes with a pivot or what not), and use a spring, another solenoid, or gravity, etc to make the reverse movement. A solenoid by itself gives you linear movement, if you need rotational movement, one way to do that is have a pivot on the end of the solenoid rod, then a rod from there to one end of a clamp on a shaft, then when the solenoid pulls in its rod, the shaft will rotate (this is the basic mechanism for pinball flippers).
The medical cartel will never allow that. They have a complete stranglehold on both licensing and education.
I ran into the oncologist that took care of someone close to me in a social setting and we ended up talking for awhile. We were talking about getting ready for the holidays, etc and she expressed a fairly significant guilt about being absent for so many things. That's no wa to live.

It struck me as very sad, as I've heard similar things from other physicians.
Neither. It’s from removing artificial caps.

"Tamura describes the concept of 'hito no me'; the ‘societal eye’. Even without a police presence, no theft will occur while there is hito no me. But left in a place where there is no one watching, thefts do occur."

"Likewise, in Shintoism everything, from rocks to trees, possesses a spirit. While organised Shintoism is a minority practice in Japan, omniscient objects permeate the culture....if you are always being watched and your natural disposition is to think of others first, it is natural that you would be bothered to hand in the lost item."

The concept of "standing out" is a bit foreign in collectivist cultures like Japan, and getting blamed/shunned/etc for stealing would be mentally taxing.
When it comes to studies that involve measuring telomeres as a result, I've always wondered: is telomere length such a foolproof measure that it can be used to make claims like this? Given two people who will live their entire natural lifespan and have no complications, will the one with shorter telomeres necessarily die first? Are there tolerances of some kind?
Yeah, I threw a sizeable PDF (800MB textbook) at it and it's choking pretty hard compared to old Edge to the point where it's barely usable.

Not a deal breaker for me because I don't have a touch screen and use an external PDF reader (sumatraPDF), but if I was using edge for heavy PDFs I would be rather disappointed

Seems fine for PDFs that are a bit less extreme, but nowhere near as smooth as old edge.
Model 3. Calling it a transmission is technically correct, but it is extremely simple. It is single reduction gear as you suggested: https://cleantechnica.com/2018/10/16/tesla-model-3-motor-gea...
There are of course other confounding variables that this study likely does not take into account (whether because they can’t measure it, or they chose not to include it)

Same here. Low-fat/nonfat milk tastes of nothing. I'd rather drink water. I found it works best to hydrate with actual water (ie. drink enough water to never feel thirst) and then if I want the taste, I'll just have a glass of full fat milk.
And if you don't do advertising how do you monetize? Do you follow all the other apps that implement gambling as their monetization strategy?

Netflix and videogsmes are very passive activities, and time cleaning your house presumably isn't fungible with them, from a mental energy perspective. I'm not in the habit of watching TV, but my sister is a good example: over the course of her medical education and early career, her Netflix addiction has tracked pretty directly with how mentally exhausting her workload is. If she was at full-enough capacity during Netflix time to be cleaning house, she'd be spending it on one of her hobbies, or reading.
Haha same. I've tried so many as well... Inconsolata, Fira Code, etc. Always end up back with Menlo.

YMMV.

To me, everything is too thick and crammed together compared to Fira.
It just feels like the font wasn't designed with enough letter spacing.
I think you can manually control this in IntelliJ products, but the default spacing seems too crammed.
Thanks for the tip -- another user commented this as well, so we switched over to .md Markdown format. Shoot us a note and let us know if this looks better.
The difference is you don't purchase a Walmart store first. Neogreekisms aside, I personally think the iPhone ecosystem smells like a new kind of monopoly that the people who set down existing antitrust law couldn't have foreseen.

Imagine buying a nice desk to work on, and being told you could only buy paper and pens from the manufacturer of the desk. Maybe other vendors could be considered if 30% of their revenue went to the desk manufacturer. Preposterous, right? That's the world be live in and accepted as the norm for smartphones. Not a monopoly on a market scale, but the notion of selling someone a "platform" couldn't have really been foreseen a century ago. It's a similar idea, but it's more monopolism targeted at the market that surrounds the platform.

One particularly egregious example: Apple should reasonably be allowed to determine which products they sell on the App Store, but by preventing the installation of arbitrary apps from outside of the store, they've created a monopoly that they use for moral policing and anticompetitive practices. Apple not only disallows nudity-centric apps or apps that control nicotine vaporizers on their store, but effectively has banished them from their phones entirely. Which seems very suspect, and arguably they should not have the right to stop people from using what may be their primary computing platform as they see fit.

Then there's the issue of ebooks and music: Apple takes 30% of every in-app purchase, and developers are forbidden from using alternate payment processors to get around that. As such, Amazon can't reasonably sell ebooks in their app (you have to use a web browser and figure out the weird absence of buying capabilities yourself, as a user) since it would soak up the entire margin. Apple, however, competes with Amazon and sells ebooks themselves...which is questionable. Spotify cannot sign people up for their service without giving Apple an ongoing 30% cut of the subscription...meanwhile, Apple competes with them.

I hate food science, Just few weeks back had switched from 1% milk to full fat milk by reading one another article which states opposite. That sugar lobby has demonised fat and actually consuming non skimmed milk reduces craving. So you do less beinge eating. Now this is opposite!!
wait you can now finally virtuaise them but you have to do it on Mac hardware?
Its like someone didn't give them the manual or something.

I guess that explains why some companies can finally offer "macs on a rack" because they are literally macs.

The point remains that its a bunch of hoops they force people to jump through, BECAUSE THEY CAN. Not for any good technical reason.
What do you do now? I like clean code, but also understand the need of producing results. I get pleasure from creating clean, readable, commented and maintainable code. However, I understand my boss mostly doesn't care, he just wants a working product that can improve the efficiency of our business.

Example: Product which ran part of our business for the last 15 years, is the worst code I have seen in my entire life. I have seen better code written in a state university. However, it did its job and generated a lot of money in the process.

I think delivering glued/hacked code happens in many places.
Dr. Jason Fung often shows a graph from a study showing that Osteoporosis increased in Greece over the years, correlated to the increase in milk consumption.
> There are techniques available to control for correlations like that.

If we knew all the correlations, we might stand a pretty good chance of controlling for them, but we don't know them. We might hypothesize that drinking 1% milk is associated with higher rates of exercise, and we might go out and measure that against a control group. But what if it's also associated with drinking less alcohol? Or not smoking? Or anything else.

We don't know all of the correlations, because human beings are complex, and we can't hold all other variables static, which is why nutrition science has been so abysmal. Only if we first hypothesize the correlation, or collect the data necessary to make the connection, can we even attempt to control for it.
I've actually mostly lost my ability to squat now which I kind of regret. A lot of places, especially China despite its breakneck speed growth, still use squat toilets. When you have an upset stomach from that breakfast stall you last ate, it then becomes a matter of survival. Not being able to squat is a weakness
"What’s in it for the finder to be honest enough to hand in the item?"

By asking this question, you deny yourself access to its answer.
Why doesn't government intervene? Say, by handing out green cards on arrival to every doc from a certain list of "rich" countries, filling the void very quickly? Or even by making medical education a state monopoly and leave it up to the state to decide who to license?
It might resemble a particular encoding of a string... and the way you got that string to that particular sequence of bytes is by... encoding it.
From the article:

">At best, we might undertake it during Crossfit, pilates or while lifting at the gym, but only partially and often with weights (a repetitive maneuver that’s hard to imagine being useful 2.5 million years ago).<"

A repetitive maneuver with weights is hard to imagine 2.5 million years ago? So they're going to bash getting yourself strong and healthy because they can't imagine anyone doing a repetitive maneuver 2.5 million years ago? Either you're supporting that people should squat more or you don't. This article wants you to squat but not in any way which will improve your strength and chances of getting off the toilet when your 95.
