Roulette table. Gives you almost even odds to double your money. Higher stakes tables if you're walking up with $1600 in your pocket. If you get a drink out of it you can consider that as an extra dividend on top of your returns.

I'm joking. But the question is kinda crazy because it doesn't scale. You're asking for a 100% return in a month. That's 4000% or more annualized return... Assuming you're starting with that initial capital and you want to keep it working. For those returns you need to take massive risks.

Gambling is one way. Options markets is another. (See gambling)
An old lesson about a fish
The cardiologist said the same thing about that being a strange statement. I think my primary care doctor is trained in Asia and somehow got a license to practice here, so I guess they have a different philosophy? That's why I got a second opinion.

I think what happened is that the doctor finally looked at my recorded heart rate over the 10 years I've been visiting him and saw it lower dramatically.

>Are you comparing this number to resting heart rate values in literature? Lowest recorded HR during sleep and the value people are talking about when they say "resting heart rate" are very different things.

Yeah not sure about this. That's why I gave the 49 bpm when sitting, but I tend to visit my primary care doctor in the morning after I get up when my heart rate is probably mid 40s.
What is the point of sharing cache between VMs?

Pinning a VM to a set of cores when encryption is enabled would make sense, and could be a feature cloud users would be willing to pay for.
We expect all of our customers to have a need for e2ee.

And we do implement a PAKE.

For reference, I explained our approach a bit in this comment [0], and mentioned how we'll have more documents and diagrams available in the near future to explain it some more. Will explain it in more detail here (but be warned, it's still missing some steps and may seem a little convoluted to follow):

--Sign up--

1. user signs up and client generates a random seed in memory

2. client takes user's seed and inputs it through HKDF to derive a Diffie-Hellman key pair

3. client inputs user's password once through Scrypt, and then twice through HKDF to derive 2 values: password token & password-based encryption key

4. client encrypts user's seed from step 1 using password-based encryption key from step 3

5. client sends server the user's public DH key, password-encrypted seed, and password token for storage

--Sign in--

1. user inputs username and password

2. client inputs password once through Scrypt, and then twice through HKDF to derive 2 keys: password token & password-based encryption key

3. client sends server password token

4. server verifies password token matches stored token, and sends client a random message encrypted to the client's public DH key that was stored at sign up, along with the password-encrypted seed

5. client decrypts password-encrypted seed using password-based encryption key from step 2

6. client takes user's seed and inputs it through HKDF to derive DH key pair

7. client uses private DH key to decrypt random message from step 4 and sends plaintext message to server

8. client is now authenticated

Overall this approach is somewhat similar to Firefox's approach with Firefox Sync [1]

> Pneumonia is just an infection of the lungs

Actually that’s not true either, you can catch pneumonia from breathing the wrong chemicals. Pneumonia is an inflammation of the lungs, which is frequently caused by infection.
This is literally not true.
That reminds me of the Troodon dinosaur. It had a large brain size compared to its body. I think I recall reading Troodon's brain left marks on its inner skull. It was supposedly very intelligent due to its brain size.
Much of the complexity isn’t about HTML rendering, but instead about security and device optimizations.
MSL: A New Programming Language for Text Editing and Fact Verification [pdf]
It is highly unlikely that continued training would drop your resting heart rate below 30 bpm. You are probably already close to your minimum. The world record is 27, and only a tiny fraction of genetic outliers can get close to that regardless of what they do.

In general most exercise scientists consider polarized training to be the best approach for maximizing performance in endurance sports. Do something like 20% hard intervals and 80% at an easy steady pace (ideal percentages will vary a little by individual and sport).
Counterpoint, robo-call/text laws do influence some companies. I worked with one who required double opt-in for text to avoid getting blacklisted.
>Or someone later wouldn't know about us.... outside say an abandoned car floating through space...

The cars we left on the moon will still be there. The satellites and trash in orbit would still be there. The satellites orbiting Mars would still be there.

We can see clear evidence that life has altered the climate in the past [1]. Anyone looking like we are would notice our mark on the environment.

I use Firefox on Android with NoScript and an adblocker.

Yet I'm uniquely identifiable. One culprit is screen size putting me at <0.01%.

Does that make defeating fingerprinting on mobile hopeless for the casual user?

Edit: more info. All JS is blocked, and I have privacy.resistFingerprinting. The page doesn't detect my adblocker. Still, there are just too many things I can't change:

- hardware concurrency: 1.7%

- audio formats: 0.2%

- navigator properties: 0.2%

- audio data: 0.1%

I was surprised at this one:

- Media devices: Unique

What are media device identifiers for, exactly? Why does the browser supply it without JS?
I think the biggest stumbling block is going to be that most of my complexity is in wiring the Arduino to something else. That and you don't even start with a system that can log.

This is strictly for Arduino/embedded. For general purpose programming? I don't know.
Why do you keep suggesting racism here? Bigotry is the word, but if the food source isn't endangered (some bats are, some aren't) (edit: or produced cruelly, to your point), and if the education exists to safely prepare the food (e.g. cook it thoroughly to avoid pathogens), there's no real reason to dissuade routine consumption other than cultural biases or "ew that's gross," which frankly is the same thing.

On the other hand, if the food tends to have high concentrations of compounds or substances that can cause harm with no easy mechanism to remove said compounds (think prions or e.g. mercury), then yes, now you have a substantial concern that justifies dissuading or banning consumption.

Tldr: if you're gonna ban people from eating bats at all, do the same for chicken. Undercooked chicken can get you salmonella, live chicken might give you the flu, and you'll never know which bug might just be transmissible person to person, R0 > 1.
Keep in mind that those 5 million people did not submit their fingerprint on this website, so they are not "known" by this tool.
It's an interesting way of thinking of the age of the earth

What strict containment policy?
Indeed. I remember watching him on Fresh Gear, which aired on ZDTV (later became TechTV).
Ouch. I've heard of telling recruiters that a co-worker is super great in order to get them recruited out of your org but never with the glowing review.
That monthly check might not even be very large. Unfortunately, in many places (like North Dakota), mineral rights are severed from surface rights. So as a surface owner you might get a pittance for allowing a pad on your property, all the royalties are going to someone else who bought up mineral rights decades ago.
Bing was really, really bad when it started. Perception was shaped and a lot of people go out of their way to avoid it, even though it's now just fine for most uses. In this sense, DDG has an advantage, because it has had time to improve substantially before its brand hit the mainstream (which has not happened yet).

I'm still convinced the advantage Google has is not fundamentally technical. A lot of people expect it not because it's good, but because it has always meant "search" for them, ever since they got online. Google spent a generation at the top, and that sort of entrenchment is really hard to lose. Even Microsoft didn't really lose their primacy on the desktop - the internet just got big enough to escape their stranglehold.

Are satellite orbits really stable over millennia?

Maybe just the geo-sync ones, but I imagine anything closer will decay in “relatively short order”.
Nah HIIT is not only more effective from my anecdotal experience but this is proven by science. Professional Athletes train with HIIT along with the long term workouts, but it's well known that HIIT is the greater causal factor that boosts ur endurance by a dramatic amount.

For the first 5 years when I was doing this, HIIT was actually more painful then running 5 miles. When you come out of it, you should feel as if you did more damage. The first couple weeks you should be borderline ready to vomit.

Additionally note some people don't genetically have the muscles to do this kind of training. For power you need the ACTN3 gene. If you never been a powerful sprinter in your life then stick with the slow runs.
Back in 2014 I went to a seminar she gave about, among other things, the forgery detection work. The basic idea seemed both simple and clever: a forger is trying to match the original painting or style as exactly as possible, and so paints more slowly and carefully, and this introduces more slight wobble in the strokes.

OP here. MSL is a new language for representing research and text editing as programming language expressions. Our company's goal is to replace the word processor with an improved set of tools based on this language.

The history of MSL can be traced from the goals of computer science pioneers going back to the 1940's. These additional documents further explain the development process and goals of the MSL language:

Mimix Whitepaper.[0] Explains the historical precedents for moving beyond word processing.

Getting to Xanadu.[1] Explains why Nelson's Xanadu did not achieve commercial success.

Everything Old Isn't New Again (Yet).[2] Shows previous attempts at moving beyond word processing.

Recipes for Research.[3] Explains how a new language could record text editing and fact changes over time.

Nebula: Simple and Flexible Apps with (msl) Data. [4] Shows how (msl) applications can be deployed.

I welcome your questions, ideas, and suggestions.

In CSS you list the fonts you want, and the browser will decide if it downloads them or not. There is simply no reason JS shouldn't do the same.
That's across "all time", not just the last 7 days.

But for the last 7 days, Firefox has over 300%, and Windows over 285%. Gecko is over 700%. Screen left of 0 is 250%. -- I'm guessing some kind of calculation error?
The spanish flu killed way more than that, at least according to wikipedia. Something like 10-20%. It was a monumental event that killed a percentage of the entire global population. The kind of thing you can only call a true plague. Think like the black plague, where a substantial percentage of some populations where wiped off the face of the earn. Imagine 1/3 or 1/2 of your community dying.

I keep seeing this 2.5% number, and I don't understand what people are talking about.

Thanks that's reassuring. The thing I'm curious about is long term outcomes of hard intervals. There's no real research on that yet as far as I can tell, and I don't know anyone who has done HIIT for 3x week for a decade.

star trek voyager had an episode about this
I'm willing to bet these people were following automated directions.

My family and I were once driving from Chicago to my home town 6 hours to the southwest.

A blizzard kicked up, and we were driving according to Google directions. It took us off of the main roads, and we found ourselves on unpopulated gravel roads in the middle of nowhere Illinois totally FUCKED of we had crashed.

I've seen it over and over again. You trying to get somewhere. There are clear normal routes to that place. And then Google directions start to direct you to these fucking country roads to try and finesse some kind of "faster route" for you without even prompting you for a route change. It just directs you into some dumb fuck route that no one would ever take in the right mind.

I've learned to watch Google directions like a hawk. I was once driving up from downstate, and it started to take us off the main road. I told my friend to stop and turn around, get back on the main highway. If we had taken the route Google recommended, we would have gone hours out of our way on gravel country roads to get around a bit of minor traffic on the main road.
N95 masks are better when there's dust, or smog, but don't make preventing getting sick any better than surgical masks. The idea behind surgical masks is to prevent you from getting sick when people sneeze, cough, etc. So the effectiveness is basically the same providing you use them properly.

Never touch the front of the mask. Wash your hands after removing. Dispose of mask after use.

Ceramics should last a very long time if they are buried. Ceramic toilets and stoneware dishes are like stone. If buried in sand or silt that collected over time they would be like other fossils. They might get crushed or broken, but I don't think they'd dissolve or corrode.
In some ways, Howard's Hyborian Age stories featuring Conan were a response to scientific revelations of his day indicating the plausibility of a vanished age prior to recorded history.

Aschulean hand axes have been dated to 1.76 million years ago, Oldowan tools were made up to 2.6 Mya. Just really smart apes, sure, but who would know if they had a breakaway 5,000 years of brilliance reflected mainly through an extensive oral tradition and crafts with exceptionally disposable materials.

Not known in Howard's day, but Göbekli Tepe is an extensive temple complex in Turkey that predates when we thought sophisticated organized societies emerged, and seems like something his Hyboreans might have built.

If you want to get way out on a limb, our theory about how monkeys got to the new world is pretty suspicious. Currently, we theorize that a breeding population managed to accidentally raft across the Atlantic exactly one time in all of history, but this is so rare it didn't happen for other animals, and never took them to the much closer North America from there.

Might as well guess some ancient extinct navigators brought some monkeys along as pets, then died out and left the monkeys as the only evidence. Crazy and unsupported conjecture, but why not, par for current theories.

That's a good point, I just meant that it seems odd to focus on cities. (Especially since while the cities themselves are small, the swathes of land to supply them aren't. Also I think someone else commented evidence of atomic tests would persist a very long time, for example?)
Right there are just too many variables and confounding factors to get high quality results from studying long term interval training. If you're concerned about it then realistically the only thing you can do is get annual heart scans and blood tests to catch any problems before they get too serious.
4%3 is 1, so -4%3=-1=3-1=2 (mod 3).

I disagree about maintenance: use the right formula and do careful unit testing. Abs isn't a great help here either.
They quarantined Wuhan, and announced it 8 hours before they did it, they estimated 200k people left Wuhan in a rush. Yet people are still entering and exiting Wuhan for CNY. So as far as I'm concerned this quarantine is just political face.
I judge services based on how difficult it is to find something entertaining to watch. Frequently on Amazon Prime I spend more time sifting through piles of trash than actually streaming content because aside from a small amount of decent original content it's a mess.

Depends what you consider "closer".

Extrapolating that anything above the start of medium earth orbit (2,000 km) and out should last a hell of a long time.
