Rocket league is an active multiplayer game that falls under the "Games as a Service" umbrella. There are limited time events, and new aesthetic upgrades being added to the game at a regular clip. Because of that, it's not a "five year old game" but rather a "game in active development."

Think about it like a game like World of Warcraft. It wasn't built once and then released, but rather new content is being produced for it constantly, so the game engine itself needs to be improved at every level as consumer hardware changes and improves.
So how many developers here use Google Analytics, Intercom, Segment, error logging like BugSnag or Sentry, etc?

Wait until the BBC finds out how many of us are giving Amazon user data. (I mean, it's s3 and RDS, but that clarification would be overly pedantic)
It is quite unlikely that they can claim that much precision.

"8.3" probably reads as more authoritative than ">8%".

Whatever the case, 8% should be deeply alarming. Just how many % indicates a crashing ecosystem, and mass famine? Much of the world depends on ocean catch to get enough protein.
Nick Bilton did extensive research for his book American Kingpin and it all supports the theory that Ulbricht was the only DPR.

In Germany, this was the favorite scare topic of the press in articles about the TTIP negotiations.

So I doubt that they will be able to include that in any new treaty without causing a major freak-out here in Germany.

Yes, from what I've seen this is the primary objection (aside from realpolitik considerations i.e. wanting to keep agricultural prices high).

Salad has routinely been chlorine-washed in Europe for years, and nobody complains about that.
I get the feeling that it's easier to raise money for some vaporware, and then have fun for a couple of years with that pile of money than to spend a couple of years self-funding something that actually works and trying to find a buyer.
I've bought six monitor stands in the past two months (don't ask) and in no case did this tool surface any of the stands I actually bought, all of them very popular models (i.e., high sales rankings, lots of reviews).

On another note, the competition in monitor stands has been great for consumers. A decade ago Ergotron was basically the only option for high-quality stands. Now, I just bought stands that cost 1/3 or less of what an Ergotron goes for and the quality is at least as good as the two Ergotrons I have. The quality is astounding for the price.
Another issue I am surprised doesn't get brought up is that there are only 450 Nuclear Reactors in the world.

Any nuclear accident is unacceptable, but what do you think the rate of crashes were in the first 1000 Airplanes?

When we don't build nuclear, we don't really get better at nuclear. If the U.S. decided to build 50 Nuclear reactors in relatively remote parts of Nevada to power California. Even if we had another accident, by the time we had finished that project our safety standards would be in a very different place.
Is there any particular reason you chose to use Redis lists instead of streams? With streams you’d get the job ack/retry stuff partially handled for you
but .gov means US health agency... doubt they can be trusted on this issue.
I agree for the most part. We will either fix it technologically (my guess through a combination of nuclear, renewables, and carbon capture) or we won’t fix it. In the latter case we either won’t fix it and everything will still be fine, because the IPCC and others estimate the cost of a do nothing scenario at like 10% of world GDP by 2100,[1] or we won’t fix it and we’ll all die.

What will never happen is addressing climate change through social engineering.

Ah yes, that's something that always annoys me too. Sorry for that. But I think the implication in the direction anti-semite -> anti-zionist is pretty strong, so for this particular question I think that surveys about antisemitism provide a good basis for discussion. I'd assume that anti-zionists form an almost perfect superset of anti-semites.

edit: or maybe not, you could imagine someone who really doesn't like Jews and wants to send all of them to Israel.

Luckily most law systems in the world don't have "seemed to me fairly obvious" as grounds that you can convict someone on.

Also, you're missing any sort of source/claim to back that it "seemed fairly obvious".

"QE is also just swapping of assets"

Sort of. It was a swapping of short term liquidity for assets across the curve. Which is why it was fundamentally different from what the FED is doing today.

"which is why it wasn't noticeably inflationary any of the times it was done"

This is quite a strong statement. I would disagree. My model says it was inflationary. The counterfactual is "what would the inflation/deflation rate be in the absence of QE all else being the same?". Such counterfactuals are hard to come by, which is why this is such a dismal "science." At any rate, it cannot be denied (IMHO) that actual QE depressed interest rates available to economic actors.
Evolution is something that happens to species that can adapt. The ones that can't just go extinct.
the fed has an opportunity to participate. it is a private entity, and not part of the federal government.

mind blowing? yes.

but if you are not part of the fed, then you are absolutely being denied the opportunity to benefit from printing more fiat.
To quote the article:

If you're fine with using vinegar elsewhere in food, you should be fine with this.
"If the single-dose effect for cancer patients really is this strong, it seems like everyone who messed with mushrooms once in college should be 'treated' also."

Set, drug, dose, and setting all play huge roles in the effects one gets.

First, a lot of drugs on the black market aren't what they claim to be. So someone who tried what they thought were mushrooms in college might have gotten something else.

The dose of psilocybin one gets from black market mushrooms is also difficult if not impossible to gauge. So someone who tried mushrooms in college could have gotten too low or too high a dose.

Many people are also completely clueless when it comes to how to optimally prepare for and take drugs, and believe all sorts of myths and misconceptions about drugs. So many of those who took mushrooms in college probably did so in very poor circumstances, with no intention or even self-destructive intentions (such as those that often go hand-in-hand in binge-drinking), and possibly with misconceptions about what the experience will be like.

This is all very, very different from taking psilocybin or other psychedelics in a carefully designed study, with trained therapists who typically give days if not weeks of therapy before the sessions, during, and after the sessions, are given pure, precisely measured doses. The setting is designed for maximum therapeutic effect, as are the resources available during the session (such as having pictures of loved-ones on hand to focus on at the peak of the session). The sessions are usually done with light blocked out by an eye-shade, and with music carefully designed to facilitate the session. The therapists are on hand to give support and help the patient work through any diffcult experiences, and are encouraged to work through such difficulties rather than run away from them. Acceptance is encouraged.

Because of this careful preparation, planning, and professional therapy, the results are likely to be much different than casual mushroom use in college by people who are likely to be ignorant of psychedelics in general, and of how to properly run a therapeutic session in particular.

The Federal reserve injected banks with money, not the economy. One would naturally think that these banks would then lend money to the broader economy (because that's how banks make money), but a law passed around that time allowed banks to deposit their money in the Fed itself and extract an interest rate better than they would get from normal lending. The Fed, which normally ran a surplus (money which goes to the Treasury to pay down debt), began to run a deficit from these payouts. Potential inflation just became more debt. This is why over a trillion dollars in "printed money" failed to yield much inflation over the last 10 years, but let's all just keeping reading ZH articles about the looming "inflation bomb"..

How is pointing out that poor people are unable to afford high quality food saying that they should not eat?
The difference is that Amazon isn’t an advertising company and has little incentive going through user data on their systems. In addition, the data isn’t in a standardised format so they would have to spend considerable efforts parsing the data first.

Facebook and Google on the other hand make their money from stalking people and developers are giving them data in a nice standardised format.
That's the whole point of the trade deals though. It wouldn't be labelled properly, since it would be considered unfair competition.

> The mean is not so bad for many purposes because it is an expectation value.

Implicit assumptions:

1. The sample mean is an accurate estimator of the expectation.

2. The expectation is a useful number.

Both of these are false surprisingly often; an example is one you're mentioning: latencies.
I don't understand the logic. If the end result is unequivocally good, why do the steps along the way matter beyond the "eww" factor?

I need to be open here that I originally misread the title and missed the "cancer patient" part!

I just had a single dose of psilocybin way back when and it calmed me for years. I have not been a cancer patient.

That said, a lot of my depression and anxiety was rooted in losing my father to cancer at the age of 10.
Personally, I would like to see MS do the inverse of what they did with Linux - move to Linux as their primary kernel and embed the NT kernel with hooks into Linux, either via hypervisor or directly if hypervisor doesn't give it the performance it needs for us to depart from NT kernel permanently. Not saying NT is bad... just that Linux has so much more momentum on the server, is well liked, popular and 'free'. Make NT an afterthought in Linux... not the other way around.
Evolution generally occurs over hundreds to thousands of generations, and frequently involves a significant bottlenecking event. Humans have a bad track record of harvesting bottlenecked species into extinction. Given that Dungeness crab is (IMO, but I'm not alone on this) the most delicious creature on this earth, this doesn't bode well for future generations of humans enjoying this once-plentiful delicacy

My understanding is the chemical wash isn't the inherent issue here. It's the fact that they need to be chemically washed in the first place. Due to factory farming, chickens live in piles of their own poop, and with that comes tons of other unhealthy side effects. To combat that, in the US we simply give them a chemical bath.

The issue at hand is that the EU doesn't want low quality chicken entering the market because it could cause health issues if not cleaned properly, and at the volume we produce, it's likelier than not to be done improperly at some point, at scale. It's just not worth the risk.

But, I could be missing the mark entirely. This is all from memory when I read up on EU food standards a few years ago. My memory of all of these things could be completely off here.
I worked for a bit for a lobbying firm for commercial fishermen. They would spend money on all sorts of things: global warming, removing mining, removing dams. I asked my boss why weren't doing any messaging around ocean acidification.

"You don't tell people about the end of the world. If people knew how fucked they were, they would just get out of the industry and stop supporting us."

Seafood is the last wild food that normal people can still affordably and regularly eat. But there is a very real chance that our generation will be the last to do so.
I honestly cannot blame someone in that business for hating linux. The number of variables to test for if you only care about windows gamers is staggering. Linux is 10x harder than windows if you care about supporting any arbitrary distribution and driver stack. I think if users were willing to load a linux VM for each game they'd like to play, this would be more manageable from a game developer's perspective.

I understand SDL2 exists. I understand that Valve has "mostly" pulled off linux/macos support. But, is it really worth it from a business perspective for all game developers to support linux? How big and wide do your margins need to be before it makes financial sense to fully support both operating systems? How many features (or even titles) will stay in the backlog because your developers are busy chasing down the 5000th weird linux network/GPU/sound bug that only occurs on this one kinda-old version of Ubuntu?
Are CO2 levels higher than they were ~150m years ago when crabs first evolved into being?

Amazon mingles inventory and delivers counterfeit goods on behalf of legitimate sellers. Your Facebook analogy is broken because Facebook is a completely different industry with completely different operations but to fix it, imagine if Facebook mixed up your posts with content written by spammers and served it to your friends under your name.

Nope. From wikipedia:

> Seawater is slightly basic, and ocean acidification involves a shift towards pH-neutral conditions rather than a transition to acidic conditions.

Also

> Between 1751 and 1996, surface ocean pH is estimated to have decreased from approximately 8.25 to 8.14

So we're not talking about water that is deadly to humans. Just water that disturbs certain delicate biological processes that could have knock-on effects to the food chain.

Amazon dot com and building a game are so different that it is difficult to follow the metaphor to any place where it offers insight. The reality is that it costs money to support any gaming platform. The cost of supporting platforms with only a tiny number of players can easily outstrip any potential upside.

A prominent indie dev on twitter once said, of his game that has sold at least several hundred thousand copies, that only 100 people will buy your game on Linux and every single one will email you to tell you that they did. That they are technical and vocal doesn't make the playerbase any larger.
Exactly. These summaries are often used for prediction, which means historic data is used as a sample of the same distribution as future data.

Even when comparing two different historical data sets you have to be careful: if you're doing anything that resembles hypothesis testing (i.e. trying to figure out if something you changed made a difference) you're not really comparing two historical data sets -- you're trying to compare the underlying distributions from which the historical data sets were drawn, but hoping that the historical data are representative samples from those.

Shifting the definition of inflation this way is misleading and confusing for everyone involved - a better analogy may be that QE is equivalent to price controls on fixed income assets.

The effects of QE become much more clear - since the price of a bond is now fixed above its market clearing price (alternately, rates are artificially pegged low), this actually results in a shortfall of supplied liquidity and a situation that sharply favors strong borrowers.

Dungeoness crabs are prized for their size and flavour. Evolution might very well say tough luck - crabs that large aren't sustainable in acidic water.
