Roenneberg isn't stupid. He is saying that biological time and social time are such that setting clocks closer to solar time ends up being healthier for more people.

Also Roenneberg is quite clearly aware of the variance of daylight within time zones and the health effect that this causes. I bet he's even written papers on this effect!

No, they probably can't. It would be really weird for an outside engineer to have a better insight on this than the engineers from the actual rocket company.

Coronavirus: First European Hotbed in Germany
Small pickups, on the other hand, are fantastic. I've got a 2005 Ford Ranger. The bed is big enough that I've hauled drywall, lumber, flagstones, furniture, a dead elk... pretty much everything I've ever needed to move. But on the other hand, it's narrower than almost anything on the road today (barring compact cars of its own era and before), so it's easy to park. It's also got enough window visibility that I can easily keep track of each corner of the truck when I'm trying to park. It's got high enough clearance that I don't scrape the front when I pull up to the curb in a parking lot, and that I can drive down rutted forest roads without too much concern.

I see a ton of little Rangers and S10s around town, but judging by how difficult it was to find my own, other people recognize how useful they are too! I think there are a lot of us who just want a small utilitarian vehicle, but when the Ranger was discontinued we lost that option in pickup format.
Rubber-Hose Cryptanalysis
I was a cofounder when rip good times came out. We were not a sequoia company but in hindsight we were really appreciative they published their advice publicly. Our team happened to be at a quarterly offsite when it came out. I remember we fiercely debated whether or not to believe it but we eventually came out of the offsite taking action - we cut founder salaries significantly, cut other non essential priorities, adjusted our forecasts and expectations and had an all hands meeting where we informed our employees that we’d extended our runway by another year and the cuts we’d made were to preserve their roles. Things turned out nearly exactly as sequoia predicted - we had just enough cash to grow the business, keep everyone on board, and get to an exit without raising another round. I’m hopeful coronavirus won’t be as bad across the board but I would strongly think about my alternatives before betting against sequoia.
Why would that matter? If the browser fetches images hidden behind onhover, then presumably it would also fetch plain <img> tags, so why not use those. If it doesn't fetch onhover images (which admittedly might break the "reasonably formatted" bit), then tracking pixels are useless because, well, it doesn't fetch them.
Panic Buying
That's not completely true and the article talks about how the alignment of social and solar time effect public health.
I can rent a truck from Lowes for $89 all day or $20 for 90 minutes + $5/15 min after that. Uhaul even in NY, NY charges $20 for the rental then $2/mile for local use, where I live it's only $.60/mile plus gas. All of those are very cheap compared to the reduced fuel efficiency and additional cost of actually owning my own truck to move things the few times a year I actually need them. (Which is actually only really once every few year or less since my house is mostly setup now and I don't do woodworking projects)

> Productivity equals production.

Yep, and when significant numbers of people simply stop working, as has been demonstrated in every experiment on basic income, production drops similarly. 0 work * any finite rate of production = 0 output.

Recessions/depressions are caused by smaller drops in production than those seen in basic income. Production includes food, medicine, services, and things that make life better for all.

>A small team of engineers who design and create a machine to build brick walls en masse, could have the same productivity as hundreds of thousands of bricklayers working 16 hours a day.

Then let them do it. That they have not done so thus far is not because we didn't have basic income. Postulating this mythical event as a counter to the empirical evidence that production did drop significantly during actual basic income is not compelling.

>generally more efficient and sustainable to have better education and social conditions for workers, than to exploit them

Then start such a company, and your better, happier, more efficient workers should beat out those other inefficient companies.

Again, this hasn't happened, despite many people trying to make such companies, only to realize that things don't work this way for valid reasons.
The hundred year mistake is ambiguous syntax with hidden precedence rules itself, rather than any specific choice of precedence.

At least, particularly poor choices of precedence can be diagnosed. Whenever the compiler applies a precedence rule between two operators that has been identified as awkward, it can emit a diagnostic mentioning those operators: "warning: quirky precedence: use parentheses when & is combined with ==".

Maybe he does, maybe he doesn't.

He is arguing for memorization. I'm saying memorization of this kind of "facts" seems unconvincing at best. Memorizing a "data card" about Reagan with this scribbled on it seems like something that would only be useful for a trivia quiz. "Mozart composed this or that", "Reagan's presidency had something to do with trickle down economics", "Washington had false teeth [1]", etc.

Your argument is such horseshit. Privatization has been a disaser already, and wreaked havoc on the American people.

Today, most pharmaceuticals are developed by the government. Private corporations take existing research and medicines, tweak them enough to be considered 'different', give them new names and then market them heavily to uncritical citizens. Corporations act as parasites. [1][2]

> Nationalizing it will politicize pharmaceuticals

Please could you read the etymology of 'political'? Everything is an ongoing dialogue. To me it's implicit that everything is political, because society is constantly evolving. What is not an ongoing debate or dialogue? Science is a constant renegotiation. New hypotheses and theories are formulated all the time, as well as a constantly shifting diversity of approach and apparatus. Things constantly evolve, new technologies emerge, new medicines come out etc.. Open dialogue is a core pillar of a healthy democracy, where we continuously re-explore and re-frame our understanding of the world around us.

How I see it, something doesn't 'become' political in the way you suggest, at all. It has always been political already. With your 'politicize' argument you erase any earlier historic debate and turn it into a black and white frame, lacking any nuance.

This means politics is reduced to two modes:

1. something is non-political - because I agree with the policy, vs. 2. something is political - because I disagree with it.

I see the term 'political' used as a pejorative like this by ignorant people who first deny the nature of the ongoing debate of democratic governance. When they see someone proposing a strategy they don't agree with, they use the word 'political' as a scare tactic.

Please do not fall in this trap and share unsupported claims simply because you might not understand the dynamics enough to have an informed decision. Please do not scaremonger, because you are just shutting down healthy debate. Please could you explore others' perspectives and give more context of your own (for example by sharing your background/skills) so we can understand your angle? Or at the least could you come with sources to back up your arguments, so that we can understand what you see, and how?

I have moved from a bike riding culture type of country to a suburban car driving country and I am also finding myself angry with bike riders while driving. In most bike riding countries the bikes don't mix with cars, they either got their own lanes like in Holland or intermix with foot traffic like in Japan. People drive on the road only when it is relatively empty from cars.

But in my current country the riders ride on any road, sometimes on the side, sometimes as block of riders. It is more sporty type of riding rather than a commuter type of riding. Mixing it with cars cause a lot of stress to the car drivers because they have to slow or take over and be extra careful all the time. It is just annoying me both as a driver and as a bike rider. There is so much space on the footpath but I must ride on the road and try to keep up with much faster traffic.
Is Facebook targeting Whoisguard directly? I am incredibly thankful for Whoisguard — back when I purchased my first domain, I didn't know about it, and to this day, I get 5-10 spam emails per day regarding my domain. It's so bad that I've had to change my primary email to something else.

There definitely should be a mechanism by which large companies like Facebook can approach Whoisguard and ask for a site to be taken down, though.
Money will eventually circulate everywhere, but it's a matter of efficiency. This is an immense simplification, but to illustrate the intuition, consider 2 options:

1. Apple spends $10 million dollars to build a factory in a developing country. This creates 2,000 jobs over a couple years. These people can finally afford to see a doctor and heat up their homes during the winter.

2. Apple gets taxed $10 million that funds 1000 people's UBI. Their lives are somewhat less stressful. There is a higher demand for Iphones, so Apple can charge a bit more money for them. After a decade, they are able to open an additional factory. However, within that decade, 100 people in that developing country died of a disease that would be easily cured with medicine had they had they been able to work at the factory 10 years ago.
Yep, small cars can do more than you give 'em credit for.

I considered getting a truck for some time, but ended up buying a 5x8 utility trailer. Sure, it's a little less convenient (and more bouncy) than a truck, and my 2009 Chevy Cobalt doesn't have a very high towing capacity, but for my purposes, the trailer gets the job done just fine.

I will happily continue to avoid car payments until the wheels fall off (which should be awhile, because I just replaced the bearings).

For years, the only option for an even slightly small pickup was the Toyota Tacoma, which is still pretty hefty. The newly-revived Ford Ranger looks like it'll be ok, but I haven't had a chance to get up close to one yet for a proper evaluation.

That's an idea for sure. I should have clarified my point that while these aren't DMCA claims, YouTube is required to handle DMCA claims, and their current process essentially preempts them. So that's how they're choosing to effectively 'handle' what would otherwise presumably be large numbers of DMCA claims.

But yeah, maybe requiring claimants to actually go through the official process would be better (albeit more work for YouTube).
It's a shame, really, that nobody makes small trucks in the USA anymore. Great vehicles.
Master is current production version. Develop is current development version. You branch off develop to work on your feature, then you merge it back to develop so you have integration point with your co-workers (you fix conflicts here) which can be deployed to test server or just run through automated tests. When you have develop branch in correct state (whatever that means for your team) then you merge it into master creating new release on production.

This way in case of some unforeseen bugs you can fix master which is production like and then merge that fix also into develop so it is present in next release. If you would develop on master you don't have obvious "production like" place. You could do tags, but somehow it fits better with CI setup and Jenkins.

In our team we have acceptance branch instead of "release branch".

Feature branches are short lived, develop, acceptance, master are long lived branches. You also don't mix stuff because what you really want is one way direction of promoting changes develop->acceptance->master.
It depends on where you live in Texas, but you only have to hit a deer once to understand the utility of those ugly brushguards.

My son ran into a deer with our beater Aerostar minivan awhile back it totaled it. Airbag went off and everything.

Meanwhile I hit a deer with my Ram diesel pickup with a Ranchhand guard last week and no damage. So they do have some utility. ;)

I do agree these trucks are ridiculous; if I didn't have a farm and the need to haul a large trailer I probably wouldn't have it. As it is we mostly drive my wife's Subaru when we actually need to go somewhere unladened.
If you mean the name of the function in the interface, it's basically ignored in this pattern, similar to how argument names are ignored. The entire interface definition should be treated as a function type with some redundant metadata.
> but without chemical bonds?

Metallic bonds. My understanding is all bonding is atoms sticking together electrostatically, with (insanely fast) "slow" lumbering nuclei, nudged around by their local e-field, and wacky electrons, adopting weird spatial distributions based on the current nuclei positions, setting that field. The bond taxonomy descriptively sorts by characteristics. Here, one is delocalization of valence electrons. Perhaps picture https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSCX78-8-q0&list=PLaFe0BJiho... , STM imaging of cold CO molecules sitting on a copper surface, IIRC. You can't see the individual copper atoms, and there are extended ripples in surface electron density.
This is the current fad in magazine-style journalism. You essentially take two narratives:

* A personal anecdotal account to provide human interest and color.

* A relatively dry scientific narrative that explains the larger context.

And then you weave the two together. The human interest side keeps readers engaged enough to wade through the otherwise tedious sciency part. The sciency part makes readers feel they are learning something more practical than just one person's story. The jumps between the two narratives can be done well but often it's pretty arbitrary.
> Where are you getting $100+/day from?

After I rented a truck for a day, I handed them $100+. I rented from the cheapest local place. Home Depot is $39/4 hours + tax for comparison. Sounds like you're reading some advert, have never actually tried to rent the truck, and legitimately expect to pay just $20/day. Good luck with that.

$20/day would be a dream come true around here, I paid more than that in tax and fees alone.
What because of vehicle weights? A Model X weighs the same or even 1500 lbs more than a modern F150. The fuel subsidy argument is bupkis, a 30% fuel cost difference is not going to have Americans switching to Ford Fiestas.
Not sure if this is what you are getting at but high speed comms modulate a signal up from a lower frequency to a much higher carrier frequency for transmission. Then the receiver modulates back down to baseband (the original frequency before modulation). This can be done with discrete hardware, no need to do the DSP with a CPU that can't reach those clock speeds. It's one of the reasons your 5GHz WiFi doesn't actually have a 2.5Gbps bitrate (satisfying the Nyquist criterion), but something closer to 1.3Gbps.

An outer join is also used to query optional values and alternatives. There are probably many other use cases I'm not remembering now.

Some programming languages have a rich set of containers to replace what SQL does with outer joins, others simply lack them, and pile hacks over hacks that are always much worse than the SQL one.
I think a good iterative solution is to keep pay the same but change all laws to pivot around a 32-hour work week instead of 40. This will force employers to hire more people or pay more over time for any work past 32 hours. I think UBI is an extreme solution to the problems that globalization and automation presents. It's better to spread the existing labor. After a certain point we could move down to 24 hour work week finally down to a UBI model when no labor is required.

This is a harder Q! I don't 100% know but two things give me hope.

First, there are so many incredible experts in early childhood right now that - IMO - are undervalued. We have so many that want to have a home to use their skills in support of parents alongside whatever they currently do.

Second, we're investing heavily in the selection and then ongoing support and / professional development of our coaches.

Over time we will need to increase the support and development even further but for the foreseeable future we're just happy how many incredible people are out there.
