It is caching the static assets (js, css, png, etc) based on default extensions[1]. The page itself is dynamic, likely for the comment feature at the bottom of the page. If they wanted to cache it, they could probably add some caching headers (have to change the responses on the origin) or a Page Rule in cloudflare (and not have to change anything on the server). But that won't be a good idea if people can login to the page to comment (not sure if CloudFlare can tell if someone is not-logged-in and return a cached version; that would be interesting). I see CF-Cache-Status: DYNAMIC header, which is:

There is a certain amount of knowledge that comes from the experience of managing money, yes. But also, the financial world has a lot of jargon and pitfalls that are aren't exactly easy to learn, especially as a high school dropout with no math background and no educated parents to turn to for help.

The _truth_ about UBI is that a lot of poor people's UBI is going to get completely eaten by predatory opportunists and then they will be in the same situation they are in. What they lack is mentorship. Without mentorship from people good at managing money, UBI (I predict) will not help the poor as much as you think - it will mainly help the educated middle class.

For example, there is a (poor, uneducated) lady in my church receiving the equivalent of UBI from the state of Maryland. However, despite "having money to manage" she has not spontaneously gained knowledge in managing money. I sat down with her once to help see if there was something more she could be doing to stop being in crisis mode all the time, and it was insane how many "bills" she was paying that weren't even real bills. There's this dark network of predators out there that send out mail with a red stamp that says "Payment Due by 1/22/2020". It looks like a bill. But if you read closely, it's actually not a bill but some home security service they are trying to trick you into buying. An educated person tears it up and throws it away. An uneducated person thinks it's a bill to pay and loses a fraction of their UBI. Another fraction of her UBI was going toward utilities she wasn't even using. One bill was nearly $70 from Comcast for cable TV, but I pointed out that she didn't even own a TV. We freed up nearly $200/month that day just by cancelling services she wasn't using and throwing away fake bills.

> Unless you teach that in school, but that would be way too sensible

Schools didn't used to have to teach you every basic skill needed to thrive in society. You could pick those up on your own if you are motivated, or through your parents.
The capital in capitalism literally refers to using money to make money.
I think deep learning can only get us so far with the existing, limited, data. I doubt it will be enough for precise structure reconstruction (but I would love to be wrong).

What it can be is a force multiplier for every progress in our understanding of why those sequences are transcribed into those structures.

But I have to admit that, with years of head-on, the research has not gotten there so I might be wrong.

I'd be careful with that assumption. Context means everything. It depends on what caused the inflammation, and what is causing its decrease.

I wonder if they simply looked at the antibiotic use. For example when that was introduced specifically, and more so when we started "over-prescribing" it. That's got to have had an effect of persistent low grade fevers that exist in just about everyone.

Well, you can at least be told how to manage your money better -- you can't be forced to get better at it, but the combination of someone telling you how savings work and actually having enough left over to save really does matter.

Up until my mid-30s, "savings" meant building up enough of a cushion that when my current wobbly job collapsed, I'd be able to make it to the next wobbly job without going into serious debt. I understood about retirement savings at that point, but there were years I not only didn't have a 401(k) accessible to me but couldn't even fully fund my IRA. If I'd had a UBI of, say, $1K a month like Andrew Yang's proposal -- or even $750 a month -- it would absolutely have changed my relationship to savings. My IRA contributions would easily have been $50K or more than they are now, which would likely put me $100K+ ahead of where I am in savings by now.

It's been a while, but I assume you're referring to the similarities drawn between information theory and sex. This was pretty offputting to me, until I realized the connection was deeper than I recognized - DNA is an apt comparison.

I've read plenty of "pop math" books, and this one stands out as somewhat odd. It's also a quick read and, somewhat uncommonly, written by a person closely connected to the topic - so I'd recommend it.

> I'm just "trashing" the use of bootleg software which I do find a bit distasteful in this day and age

It’s rather presumptive to assume GP is “bootlegging” software just because they got install media from WW. The Thinkpad T22 came with Windows 98SE originally, so it’s very possible the Windows license certificate was still stuck to the bottom of the machine.
One thing I'm wondering is whether (or rather, what kind of) bugs arise when you try to translate a model (described as "exhaustively tested pseudocode" elsewhere in this thread) into a real system. For example, if there is if-branch somewhere that gets missed etc?

I really think wealth inequality is a terrible metric for overall social wellbeing because it does not consider that the baseline has risen. It just comes off as a greedy attitude to be salivating over your neighbor's plate simply because it is larger, even though yours is quite full.

Video frames can be composited to improve clarity the same way it is done in Astrophotography.

And your assertion that "any software technique...won't look like the face" is incorrect. Again using multiple frames, it's entirely possible to infer what clearer underlying detail would result in the less-sharp pixel values in the video, given the training data establishing the relationship. It's a specific technique for reconstruction, not just drawing in a realistic but synthetic replacement like Photoshop's content-aware fill.
You are not the only one. Merge sort and insertion sort are deeply intuitive sorts. Quicksort is not.

I'm curious how the botanical definition came about. I believe "berry" comes from a word that means "grape" (which are berries in the botanical sense).

In Middle English, everything that wasn't a berry was an "apple". A banana was an appel of paradis, apple of paradise.
Much more here, with references. An early version of the scale set 96F to human body temperature, apparently because 96 divides evenly in half five times, so it's easy to make graduated markings between the reference points on your mercury thermometer.

it should most definitely not be worthless.

A company not paying dividends is akin to you investing in your friend’s restaurant, and have your friend tell you that by investing you are entitled to a piece of the pie, but the business plan he has in mind is to invest all the profits (if any) for the next 10 years to grow the business and expand to new locations, and just after 10 years start sharing profits or selling it to someone else.

In such scenario, is that piece of the pie worthless? I say most definitely not, because, net of risk, the expectation is that your “slice” will end up being more valuable than what you invested in.

I ask my question again: what is another investment that doesn’t operate by this basic logic? What is a business where its value is purely and solely based on a hardcoded multiple of current profits, and such multiple cannot go up and down based on how the buyers feel the future growth trajectory will be for such business?
My first reaction was to agree. However, if exercise ultimately makes the body more efficient, wouldn't that drop your body temp as your heart is beating less.

Johnny555 makes some good points, but I think the focus here is on the case where someone ordinarily ambivalent about digital purchase records specifically seeks to avoid creating one for a questionable purchase.

This makes sense intuitively, from the user psychology perspective.

However, if you delete, but allow for the user to undo, you run the risk of a lost connection in between the delete and a potential undo call.

It's possible for the back end to still behave as in the confirm workflow (while the front end follows undo). But that's ... complicated.
Wow thanks a ton, looks like I have some more reading to do! :)
Blind Spot Test
I think it's much more likely that the different codon usage leads to different rates of synthesis, not differently folded proteins. But that's a complex area. Many proteins do not fold to their native structure spontaneously, and there are other proteins that refold them "correctly".

It's not clear to me that you could truly demonstrate substantially different folding due to codon usage like that, on an experimental level, to make a general statement about all proteins.
From your link the baseline average is from "relative to 1951-1980 average". Which was the coldest period of the 20th century. It got so cold in the 70s they were predicting an incoming ice age. It's very dishonest and very wrong to cherry pick the coldest modern period of temperature and then say we have increased by 0.8C from there. Climate is cyclical and there are many Multi-decadal Oscillations in oceans that impact global temperature, rainfall patterns, and overall climate conditions. The AMO, the PDO, not to mention ENSO.

As far as anamolies go, which area is experiencing "cooler than average" (which, as mentioned above, is difficult to do) depends on the year, but here's a map from NOAA showing 2013 temps and clearly shows the Western U.S. experiencing below average temps (from a 1980-2010 baseline): https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/service/global/map-blended-mn...

And to underscore the situation in the 1970s I'm going to link to a documentary that starred Leonard Nemoy as narrator in 1978. Quotes below and link below to clips from:

“In Search of…The Coming Ice Age”, narrated by Leonard Nimoy (Spock from Star Trek):

“…sea coasts long free of summer ice, are now blocked year round…”
“…the data shows temperatures in the arctic have fallen dramatically over the last 30 years…”
“…in most locations the drop has been about 2 degrees Centigrade…”

GISS also claims to have global temperature data from 1884 that doesn't exist. They interpolate and make up numbers when they go back that far, as we don't have records from much of Asia, Africa, eastern Europe and south America during that time, even huge swaths of Australia were not covered by temperature gauges. We didn't really start getting quality global temperature data until the satellite era.

The owner/operator of the router could do that to their own device, yes.

The idea is that each router would get a certificate signed with a distinct subdomain unique to that router. So you still can't impersonate other devices. It wouldn't be a generic domain or wildcard certificate.

The remote signer would furthermore suspend suspicious connections (i.e. from multiple public IP addresses).

I don’t get it. Why are you concerned with compile time?

I'd highly doubt she was secretly extracting assets from Theranos so there is probably nothing to be found. Even that devious act would have taken a level of self-awareness that was beyond her. To me she seems like a true psychopath who believed her own BS. It is a common adage to say that lying to others starts with lying to yourself. I don't think her fraud was primarily a scheme to get rich (though that was part of it) but a scheme to emulate Steve Jobs and realize her grandiose self-image. She has no money and the people that invested are never going to see a dime.
The asset has virtually intrinsic value. It either pays no dividends or pays dividends which would take decades to match the purchase price.

The purchase "agreement" is also incredible arcane and nonsensical, as it can take one of a dozen different forms that have little in common with a standard transaction between individuals.

For example making money when the asset's price goes down (which also frequently involves psychological manipulation to make the price go down), or a third party purchasing and reselling the asset in the milliseconds between your "agreement" with someone else.
"by the time you retire, usually you don't put your money in high-risk investment but instead if something more "reliable" so the chance you get hit with 50% lost should be at minimum."

If you retire. You might die before retirement age. Also, by the time you retire you might be too infirm or sick to even enjoy your retirement. Many people also have such a crappy work/life balance that they don't know what to do with themselves when they retire, so they're miserable even when they retire.
nobody is embarassed here. pharma doesn't work on protein folding prediction. now they can take the published results and code and use it, but protein fold prediction has not, is not, and probably will not ever be the rate limiting step in novel drug discovery and development.
You're being downvoted but I can certainly see why someone might make this mental leap. Instead of downvoting you and driving along without comment let's think about this.

CO2 levels for example can negatively impact cognitive function [1], perhaps this could have some impact on energy expenditure in the brain which might reduce body temperature some. Bodies will absolutely adjust to temperature changes as well (to some extent). Plausible but probably not a large percentage of a body temperature.

I could see people being exposed to higher CO2 levels though due to the fact there are more and more indoor jobs, and less due to climate change. Even with HVAC systems, a quick Google query makes it seem that CO2 levels are generally higher in offices than outside [2] [3] [4] [5].

And while we're on that brain line of thinking... perhaps the increased consumption of television and mindless scrolling of social media feeds also results in far lower cognitive engagement which also decreases energy expenditure shrugs. Also worth looking at I suspect.

For me I immediately thought of the thermic effect of food. Legumes, many spices, nuts, seeds etc all tend to have higher thermic effects. Perhaps eating a highly refined carbohydrate diet has caused a lowering in body temerapture by having lower thermic effects (I don't know, this was just my first mental leap). I suspect there is something here but probably not a major percentage of the difference.

Skim this thread and tell me it’s not true
Chris, JSC’s IRs have extensive support for accessing non local callframes and doing a great job on effects generally. JS has _lots_ of this kind of nonsense in real code and the language supports it at least as much as Ruby does (like in super evils ways, like function.arguments).

JSC has extensive support for fast calls into native code because of the DOM. For example we have the Snippet JIT that allows the DOM to turn hot functions into almost first class compiler ops. Like, callbacks in the DOM can dictate codegen and effect analysis.

Josh, the canonical JSC approach to the iterator callback problem wouldn’t be to use builtins. That wouldn’t necessarily achieve great perf. It’s certainly not great for the baseline tier. I think the only good option is to make those iterators (like Array#each) be intrinsic as fuck: all call ICs can ask for inline machine code generation of the loop along with the call back to the passed in block. You could imagine this enabling inlining of the loop and its body even in the baseline JIT.

I get that people probably see the builtins in JSC and start having wild fantasies about what this can achieve. In reality for things where perf matters, you deploy ICs and custom template codegen.

Indeed I posted the numbers for the bigger brother. The Nano is offically slated at 472GFLOPS. The 2015 GTX Titan X (GM200, ~6 TFLOPS, +/- 10% depending on source) is the only one that has something in common with the Jetson - the Maxwell architecture.

The one with 10-12TFLOPS is the 2016 Titan X (GP102-400) but that was already using Turing so the comparison would be even more stretched.

I dated a girl for a while who owned a cat. I built up a tolerance to her cat (because she'd have the dander on her clothes), but it didn't help with any other cats. I was also still allergic to her cat, but it was at the point where a claritin would help. Mostly it's within half an hour I can barely breath, so it's hard to build up any sort of tolerance, even with allergy meds. Now it's easier for me to avoid cats entirely.
People who exercise have lower temperatures during sleep, similar or higher temperatures otherwise, and the same maximum temperature, which occurs during the evening.
