> Why should Apple be the police, they don’t even currently police their apps in a uniform way.

This argument could be used for any decision that Apple makes regarding the AppStore. While I dislike some of the policy decisions being made in the AppStore, I don't see any downsides with this specific case. Developers just have to clearly label promotional notifications going forward, no harm done. Users will be much better off with more fine grained control over what kind of notifications they receive. What's the big deal here?
Oops, can’t believe I mistyped this, thanks. Should have had coffee today
Hm, the site seemed a little slow at times, but i wasn't sure if it was my old laptop. The UI was a little bit unusal at times, especially that << backarrow-thing, which looked like it would be for going back, instead of moving on along some path. But it was obvious from context for me. I really enjoyed
the 3D-inserts where you could zoom, pan, rotate, and the changes, rising and disappearing buildings across the timeline. Though i had to click on reload sometimes to have them appear at all.
Besides that you could always click on the drop down menu in the upper left and use the TOC to jump around, or skip something.
It works great for consumer goods, like coffee and beer. As soon as you start trying to apply it to things like medicine and the producer surplus comes with a body count.
Might as well throw in some AI keywords and a story about how we stumbled upon the solution by accident.
We do develop "cancer" drugs to a point. That HPV vaccine is preventing an entire group of cancers!

But cancer itself is... complicated. There are many different types with many different causes that are complicated by many different things. Breast cancer is not the same as skin cancer, and neither of these are lung cancer.

But we do, to an extent, know how to treat things to a point. Sometimes, our best efforts have only resulted in giving folks 3-6 months.

And we do cure or prevent some infectious disease. The plague and leprosy, for example, is curable. We have taken leaps and bounds with HIV/Aids - while we can't really cure it, we can give drugs to folks to stop it from being so infectious. But like cancer, "infectious disease" comes in many forms, some being vastly more complicated to "cure" than others. This is why some things, like the common cold and common influenza do not have cures. These are hard problems. And for lack of better words, we've simply not "unlocked" the secret in ways that would be good year after year.
Some object stores do this, but aws S3 for example does not. You can list the contents of buckets, nicely sorted by name. You can mimic directory structures if you want.

However, you touched a key point: object stores are all about throughput, not latency. You can store at a GB/s (if you have the pipes), but even checking if an object exists will cost you a few milliseconds.

My skin is pretty thick. "Don't share stuff about your private life." is probably the more pertinent bit of advice.

I think it's not obvious to women that men share less of such info "in public" because they often share such info with women, even women they barely know. I am often appalled at the degree to which total strangers overshare with me and just immediately trust me with info I really shouldn't be getting.

It took me an overly long time to conclude this is actually a behavior that's extremely problematic to be on the receiving end of. It helps keep women trapped in a private role (which people expect them to play for free) and helps keep them out of a public role (ie a role you would pay them money for).

In essence, people want me to be a shoulder to cry on and it actively prevents me from being taken seriously. They want me to play a wife or mom role and they expect to get that from me completely for free. I'm supposed to care out of the goodness of my heart.

It doesn't open doors for me to be trustworthy in that fashion. It closes them. It's an expectation of slave labor and it's nothing short of abusive treatment, especially when you consider I was also treated this way while literally homeless and going hungry.

That assumption that moms care for "free" is really an assumption that her husband makes good money and is providing for her.

If you aren't paying my bills or otherwise taking care of me in some kind of meaningful fashion, expecting me to "care" about you while you don't give a damn about my welfare and won't help me establish an adequate income is just shitty behavior.

And it's rampant. It's pretty much everywhere and from almost everyone. It's appalling.

Anyway, I've gotten better about figuring out how and where to draw that line (between public and private) and it's made life suck less. Onward and upward and all that.

Edit: It's late. I'm tired. I really meant to also make the point that women being deterred by ugliness on the internet is often a genuine safety concern and not them simply being thin skinned.

This is a real problem for women you that don't typically see for men.
What do you call people who rig the system to favor their own interests?
Caffeine accumulate tiredness continuously. It booms after something small leak happened. It is not "boost" problem solving, but "carry on" from future.
I don't really understand this 'breathable' clothing from a physics perspective.

Every liter of water lost through breathable clothing is 2.3MJ of lost heat. So one would presumably prefer to have non-breathable clothing, keep that water in and potentially get 'clammy', yet stay warmer.

Yet nobody seems to do this. Is there a physics based reason other than 'it feels icky and is uncomfortable'?

Perhaps because even when in very cold environments there are occasions when the body is too hot and needs to loose heat?
and since people that would rather grind an ax than be made whole are probably rational actors, there is almost certainly more to this story.
I know and it would be pretty hard for Keto meals to not become palatable due to all the fat.

Long term all weight loss diets are equally disappointing, because appetite does come back and compliance becomes an issue. At maintenance we can actually tolerate a lot, esp if we are lightly active, but if you want to lose weight, striving for better tasting food is a poor strategy.

An excelent book on this subject is "The Hungry Brain" by Stephan Guyenet:

This guy's blog is awesome too and if you're interested for example into why the "carbohydrate insulin model" is wrong, checkout this list of references produced by him:

We have a brain hard-wired to seek foods high in calories and salt and we also prefer diversity. People on keto when looking at sweets, like brownies, they see the carbs, however the bigger problem is the fat + refined carbs combination. All junk food is a combination of fat + refined carbs, because this is a recipe for making the food hyper-palatable. This goes for French fries too, it's not the actual potato, because potatoes have a lot of water, a lot of volume and if you eat them boiled, few things are as satiating. Combine potatoes with fat by deep frying, then add some salt and both calories and palatability goes through the roof.

How can you make veggies and greens, like spinach or brocoly, tasty? You add some fat. Incidentally this is how you can trick your brain to like greens.

Most people have issues losing weight while eating brownies, not because you can't lose weight when eaten in moderation, but because it's so hard to not binge on brownies, especially if you have emotional issues too (and many overweight people have emotional issues), foods like brownies being perfect as a comfort food. You can binge on fruits, veggies, lean meat or beans of course, but it doesn't have the same impact.

(N.b. I love brownies, brownies are awesome, they just aren't good to have around when losing weight)

People in the keto community talk about carb cravings, however there is such a thing as craving fat or any food high in calories too, because it's not really about any particular macro nutrient. When I was on keto, I used to binge eat plain full fat butter. I also used to eat 1 Kg of grilled pork chops in a single seating and then I was hungry again at the next meal.

---

On the whole however, both low carb diets and low fat diets lead to a spontaneous loss in appetite in many people. It's why they work short term.

This doesn't necessarily last for long, because you get used to what you eat and because we tend to diversify our meals in our search for better tasting food. Then the dreaded plateau appears, which can happen pretty fast on keto, esp due to the propaganda that calories don't matter.

Such diets are still better than the SAD, but you'd get a similar bang for the buck in terms of satiety and healthfulness ... if you just stuck with whole foods at least 80% of the time.
It really isn't so diverse though. Same language, same retail and restaurant chains, same cars, same TV channels, same currency, same political system, same sides in war back to 1800s (and even that is a large portion of remembered history).

Compare it to Europe, where a 3 hour drive gives you different food, language, holidays, religion, festivals, type of beer, different political system, different history going back 1000+ years... and another 3 hour drive does it all over again.
It's not stupid, it's just not meant to be right. Politics is not about taking the right decision.
Not an expert, but creating a perennial vaccine depends on the mutation rate and which highly-conserved regions can be targeted.

One of the potential vaccines enrolling trial patients is made of mRNA that codes for the spike protein needed for entry to cells. [0] If that spike protein turns out to be highly-conserved, then the vaccine will have sticking power. If it's not, but there turn out to be evolutionary trade-offs to adapting around it, it could push the virus to become less aggressive.

It’s something to look forward to as you get older but a drop in salary is going to be a fact of life unless you have exceptional transferable skills that put you at the top of the game in your chosen second career, be that in the private or public sector.

I can't imagine how this would ever become the norm, unless your early career is in crazy SV startup world or some similar environment, where VC funding leads to hugely inflated salaries but ageism is rampant. And if you do go into that environment but you haven't then earned enough to retire and/or learned enough to start your own business by the time the gravy train runs out, you're probably doing something wrong.
Seems sudden to shut down a service of 20 years with two week notice.

Then again, I don’t even know what they do so it’s not something I’m going to miss.
What was the price tag though?
Ah, this is fair - "supports" is the wrong conceph. I hadn't quite put 2 and 2 together with the fact that if the kernel features and client tools exist on TrueNAS, they'll also exist on FreeNAS (because it's the same image).
For a limited time perhaps.
Yeah, right, government intervention and totalitarian control is the solution to all social problems... I very much prefer the free market solution of rising prices.

The problem with flu isn't tha the vaccine itself isn't effective, it actually protects you from the strains it's designed to just fine, it's just that the influenza virus is unstable and mutates, leading to new versions that you no longer are protected against. So yes, it depends on how stable COVID-19 is as mentioned below.
It look that you did it.
That is good to know since this is so rare nowadays. Thank you. Will consider that for some possible travel in the future.
I run endoflife.date on top of Netlify, and it has been great. Deploy previews are amazing and a life-saver.
I never quite understood this. I mostly remember that it was important to some people to distinguish between the peripheral and central nervous system when discussing how it behaves

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroregeneration has a bit, about the central nervous system being actively hostile to regrowth.

It also says I was off about the myelin sheath - it’s the next layer of tissue that surrounds the myelin sheath that survives. The sheath itself also begins to break down post-trauma, apparently.

It could work out if you split the work. You work in the am I'll take the pm. Half days.. not bad.
> FDA's stringent approval process is required

The downside of that is greatly reduced new drug development due to the expense, much more expensive drugs, and years of delay for the ones that are worked on. If you have a less popular disease, or can't wait years, you're out of luck.
> Surely it's up to the transplant recipient to decide what will be best for them?

If they pay for it sure.

When society pays then no.

When society pays for things they have a right to pay when it statistically makes sense.

Just because someone has a feeling they are different doesn't mean society should take large amounts of communal money from the disability sector to give to them.
The lifx bulbs require a bridge/base station.. it just happens to be a much more ubiquitous standard: WiFi.

The Philips Hue bulbs are pretty open. I use them with a Zigbee module on a raspi with no Philips Hue hub. Ie they work fine with standard Zigbee kit. You can theoretically pair them direct to other Zigbee devices without even a controller, at the expense of flexibility.
You'd be wasting money, though, and not necessarily saving money. Most animal diseases do not cross over to humans and IIRC, most of them that have crossed over come from farm animals. More people live in close contact with farm animals than they do things like bats.

This effort would honestly be better spent working on things humans already have.
>For those that are young and health the risk is still low

I don't want to be the grandson who killed his grandma, I don't want to be the guy who pulled the trigger on a sufferer of another illness.

Are the people who paddle this argument of "you are too young and healthy to die from NCOV-19" are disconnected from their elderly and have no contact at all with people who are suffering some illness?

Please explain to me because I do not understand your angle here.
Members of Congress make $174,000 a year.

That might be their official salary (I'm assuming?) but unless senior politicians in the US are different to almost everywhere else, that will likely only represent a proportion of their total income as a result of their political career. Between the perks that come with the job while it's happening and the consultancies and board positions and speaking engagements that come afterwards or even during, a politician who reaches that kind of level is probably going to make far more money from it than just their salary.
It can be (and in his case has been) argued that (some) patients do not know what will be best for them.

Patients typically are fairly shortly after traumatic injury, and don’t really know what either option entails.

Combine that with the Hippocratic oath or its modern equivalent, which requires doctors to do what’s in the best interest of the patient, and there’s a clear conflict.

(Couldn’t find an example directly related to this, but the general problem is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_ethics#Between_autonom...)
Technically one can argue it's not encryption. But it wouldn't be that difficult for law makers to add a clause that "any similar method of information hiding" is equal to encryption under this law. E.g. "A donkey is regarded as a horse under this law."
This is an exceptional scenario, so normal rules don't apply.

"The American Hospital Association said the webinar reflected the views of the experts who spoke during it, not its own."

This seems like they're trying to distance themselves from the content, which is odd.

The AHA is huge in terms of lobbying (see https://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/summary.php?id=D000000116), which makes me wonder if this deck was meant to stimulate contributions from its members. One way to sort it out would be to learn more about the people in the audience and to find out if the speakers were paid consultants.
nope... I know that some castes like Lingayats in Karnataka and Pisharody in Kerala bury all their dead. Probably there maybe more such castes in other parts of India.
Yup. Add mobile phones, nanny-cams, and home security cameras.

But the parents should be also mostly working from home, too.
It should be obvious that a better solution is some mix of the two, and that mix will change from time to time and under different circumstances.
In my experience the talents do not require one another, in the way I think you are thinking of it :)

At its core math is logic. So yes better ability to solve logic puzzles will win here. However you can have those skills and not teach yourself physics/calculus/advanced algebra etc.

Also regarding coding/problem solving talent - you can make a company many millions of dollars a year without ever taking calculus (I did it). Although, I like math, I just never made a huge investment in it. I am the kind of person to sit around and do math for fun, but I don't consider myself knowledgeable in that field.
Both can be described as semi-automated annotation, but we use different approaches! Datasaur allows you to plug in any pre-existing model to pre-label or validate your labels. One such model we integrate with is spaCy, so we're certainly fans of the Prodigy/Explosion team.

I've literally never worked for any employer in any development role where spontaneous pairing or larger group collaborations didn't happen often. It's just human nature. I see others commenting in this very discussion with similar anecdotal experience, so apparently I'm not just completely weird in this respect.

I don't doubt that you can learn a great deal and obtain other benefits as a result of pair programming. I'm just questioning whether making it a formal, quasi-full-time arrangement is necessarily better than the ad-hoc version I see happening all the time for similar reasons and with similar benefits.
You managed to spin your misunderstanding of "multi-platform" (which means – well – "multiple platforms", not "all platforms") into a big nuke-everything CoC discussion?

You should do some introspection. That is not normal.
We're fans of brat and are hoping to take it to the next level. We devoted many hours to ensuring a highly performant web app on the latest modern tech stack. Additionally we're expanding beyond a labeling interface to include semi-automated annotation, as well as team management capabilities.
Most of those phrases and their associated "translations" are common knowledge, so it's really just a hidden rating system with bad reviews embedded in everyday positive language.
> it's not Turing-complete

On their own, but there is more than 1 way to insert BPF programs.

If there is a key learning from ROP style exploits, is that you can assemble surprising constructs out of thin air. Linux 5.6 adds way for eBPF programs to write vtables. That one alone is an exploit waiting to happen. You just have to connect the calls just right and poof, eBPF programs calling each other: Turing completeness achieved.
There's slop in between the teeth of the gears, they aren't perfectly tightly meshed. All of the gears can wiggle back and fourth that amount, but the "wiggle room" of the last gear gets shifted one googlth of a rotation per one rotation of the first gear.

If all of the gears were pre-loaded, such that the slop was "behind" the contacting teeth, then the last gear would turn one googlth of a rotation, with an incomprehensible capacity for torque if it were to encounter any resistance in that very small distance. Being less than a planck length, you might say that the probability of finding the gear's atoms one planck length behind, and one forward, shifts continuously. Of course the atoms are vibrating far greater distances due to ambient heat, but still bonded together.

The frequencies are typically of the order of 10^13 Hz, and the amplitudes are typically of the order of 10^−11 m. A Planck length is about 10^-35.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atom_vibrations

Maybe you could say that the gear that shifts approximately one atom vibration (#11) or one planck length (#35) applies as much torque as needed to shift the slower gears behind it, once the force applied becomes greater than the friction resistance, which will happen quite often (about as fast as the atoms are vibrating, if the gears are perfectly tightly meshed) because of the tremendous capacity for torque. There will be higher pressure from the source of the force than from the resistance of the further gears.

I was also thinking, these mental models are good as a checklist of sorts that you can only apply when you're calm. Getting to the calm state first is what's difficult.

Not assuming malice in general is probably the only helpful thing in there to stay calm.

Tactical breathing (I never knew it was called that) helps me, too.

Even something that simple can be difficult to apply in the heat of the moment, that's why the technique has to be as simple as "just inhale and exhale slowly". Everything moderately complex won't help.
