How does one do so without missing essential nutrients that are only found in meats, if we're requiring realistic quantities for daily consumption, and not an absurd volume of food.

For instance, there are certain things you find in large quantities in meat or fish, where the non meat aubsistute would require completely unrealistic amounts to be consumed to receive anywhere near the same amount.

If this could be concretely addressed, I think that'd convince a lot of people on the fence to switch.
Burner account here. I've been on MAT for years, during which I've gone to grad school, worked, and otherwise lived a normal and productive life. A couple of points/observations.

1) I think an online advertising growth strategy will be hard, or really any strategy that strictly involves spending X in advertising for the recruitment of Y in revenue spend. However, people that use drugs talk to each other about where to get drugs and treatment (surprising, I know), and I would build your marketing strategy around word of mouth and patient to patient referrals. Initially reaching these communities are hard, but I would really think about how well the product can be optimized for patient -> uninitiated patient referrals, similar to "growth loops"

That said, I've worked in a start up with a similar premise, hire domain experts to give advice to customers during a life transition, and watched it fall down as the operations shook apart and the acquisition cost was very high. It's hard to get both the operations to stay great during the scale out, and keep the the marketing channels diverse enough so when you tap one out, another 5 are in different stages of life.

2) When assessing this product for my own use, the thoughts I had where:
2.1 Is this available in my area? How far would I have to travel initially?
2.2 Do they drug test me like my current place?
2.3 How frequently do I met the doc/what's the script duration?
2.4 What is expected of me to stay in MAT?

Basically, I have a provider, but with more up front information, might be willing to switch. However, the website and FAQ are pretty sparse, and I really don't feel like picking up the phone to talk to someone (flatmates, ya know?), so I feel like that's kind of a blocker.

Good luck!

You can read the pasteboard without messing it up, and then replace the contents back to what they used to be.
I'm a bit perplexed by this. On its surface, it's a case study being used for Evrone (a Russian software development firm), presumably to convey their expertise. However, there's essentially no meaningful detail supplied. The problem itself is fairly well-stated, but the useful information stops about there.

The page claims that "there are several ready-made solutions in the market that could be easily integrated with the system developed by Evrone" but does not describe how the product was tested, what their results were, under what conditions it was tested, what hardware was used, nor provide a comparison of those results to using the traditional methods--all things that I know I'd want to consider before hiring a contractor for development work or further considering this particular technology into an application.

And then their "used technologies" section simply lists "Rust, Python, Artificial intelligence, Machine Learning", with no other information. While I don't believe the use of Rust in this particular problem space is common, there's not nearly enough information to form any sort of conclusion, and saying that the stack contains Python and AI/machine learning is again exceedingly generic.
SHA-512/256 is already quite misuse-resistant, so it's entirely plausible that there's nothing to worry about in this specific case.

But if we limit ourselves to standard Merkle Damgaard hashes (i.e., not ChopMD), then the specific concern is that putting a small amount (say, a few bytes) of msg at the end of one block lets us, in effect, look for collisions between two M-D hash functions where one has an attacker-chosen IV. Here, the key property is that the IV space is large enough to be useful but small enough to be feasibly searchable.

For SHA-2, this does not currently appear to be a problem, but the conservative move is to rule this out by construction. HMAC does this, for example (and as I'm certain you know, HMAC-SHA-1 remains plausibly secure in spite of all of the attacks on SHA-1).

Regarding prefix-freeness: I completely agree with you that this is easy to get wrong, and I didn't intend to hand-wave about this in the least. Note, however, that the requirement for prefix-freeness obtains for both prepend and append! So this isn't actually an argument against appending.

Regarding the power analysis: apologies, I should have been clearer on this point. One interpretation of the Ed25519 paper I linked is that the issue has to do with putting the secret in the same block as attacker-controlled bytes, because this gives the attacker a lot more power to extract information about the secret via power analysis. Even without randomness, this attack would be much harder to pull off (perhaps even impossible) if the secret were padded to a full block length.

My point was just: don't put secrets and attacker-controlled data in the same block. And suffixing always lets us do this by applying a padding routine that is independent of the info string to msg.

The only nutrient that can not be found in plants is B12 which is easily supplemented. The official position of the American Dietetics Association is that diets completely free of animal products are healthful, nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits for the prevention and treatment of certain diseases:

There are a lot of things that are much safer to do with SHA-3 (as in Libra) than with SHA-2.

If H is in the SHA-2 family, you're much better off doing

HMAC(info, msg)

than

H(H(info) || msg)

In particular, HMAC has provable security properties that the latter construction does not. (HMAC is immune to length extension, it remains secure even when the M-D compression function is quite non-ideal, etc.)
1. To avoid the grocery store and other busy social places. Social distancing.

2. To avoid buying food from the grocery store that may have been coughed/sneezed on and still have live virus on it. Stock up on non-perishables while they’re still more likely to be clean.

3. Anticipate shortages due to other people stocking up.

4. This virus came from an animal and can also infect animals. So maybe the outbreak infects animal feedstock and reduces our food supply. Or the outbreak infects Ag workers and reduces our food supply. Or the outbreak disrupts supply chain between farms and table. That kind of thing.
This depends on context:

Let's say these masks are going to protect our doctors. The risk is that garbage masks might not protect them at all. Very soon we lose an entire hospital because we used product without traceable and verified specifications and performance. How many patients die because that one hospital is now shuttered?

If, on the other hand, these masks are being used while cutting wood on a table saw to keep from inhaling sawdust, well, specifications can be very loose and it will still protect you.

When things matter, adherence to standards, honest testing, traceable quality and specifications matters.

The DBA world has almost entirely rejected VMs, containers and even SANs for master databases, which never seem to quite work for production workloads.

The issues are:

1) performance degradation - the DBA wants 100% of the possible hardware performance, not less, for masters

2) infrastructure updates affecting the database. k8s has had a lot of updates, which interfere with the average 400 days uptime achieved on physical hardware that I've seen

3) increasing query tail latency, measured at 3x or more under VMware for example

4) vendors disclaiming support (Oracle being the most notable example. They will only support their VM technologies per their license.)

5) sharing database infrastructure with anybody never turns out well.

6) stalls by adding yet another scheduler.

Having said that, if you decide you just don't care about database performance, go ahead with what you feel is best. But don't whine about poor availability or queries being slow.

Google deleted our App, how can we trust them?
Not sure how many app developers there are here but we make health apps and Google as part of its on going war against corona virus decides to delete our health app which provides no information or diagnosis on coronavirus two days ago. We had hundreds of reviews and had been working on it for over a year and just like that, it’s all gone. We have a Dr (CMO) on our board and are a VC funded company. Our appeal response was ‘this is strike one and just upload another bundle’ even though we did nothing wrong and it was a total mistake on their end. I’m not sure how anyone can even try to build a non game business on the App Store without the worry that they will wake up and have their app deleted.
personal anecdote : I quit DO for Linode after a string of fairly hostile customer service interactions.

After having switched, I realized that Linode provided a better value for what I needed.

As with most poor customer service interactions, I doubt I was the only person who experienced such things from them.
I think lots of people predicted it as a risk, especially after the original sars, which didn't turn into a massive thing but was still a wake up call. I mean, canada created an entire new agency for being prepared for a pandemic after the sars thing.

As I put it in a reply to someone else's honest and intelligent question:

Let's say these masks are going to protect our doctors. The risk is that garbage masks might not protect them at all. Very soon we lose entire hospitals because we used product without traceable and verified specifications and performance.

How many patients die because hospitals go down due to junk masks?

If, on the other hand, these masks are being used while cutting wood on a table saw to keep from inhaling sawdust, well, specifications can be very loose and it will still protect the wearer just fine.

When things matter, adherence to specifications and standards while backed to real and traceable testing matters.

How Does ElectroKeto Supplement Work?

If you’re trying to lose weight, there is some real science behind the keto diet. The idea behind the keto diet is you basically stop eating carbs. Why? Well, your body generally burns carbs for energy. But, if you take away carbs, your body still has to give you energy. So, it starts burning through your fat stores for energy, instead. And, this is called ketosis. Well, if you don’t want to give up all your favorite carbs, the Electro Keto Ingredients can get you into ketosis instead!

It is very tempting to be drawn into these kind of articles. But they are always worth a little caution. Counting successful predictions post hoc is dangerous.

If there had been no pandemic this year, but California had suffered from an overwhelming earthquake, this article would read "A Wo/Man Who Saw the Earthquake Coming." If a catastrophic series of diplomatic failures had led to a nuclear strike: "A Wo/Man Who Saw the Nuclear War Coming." 20 years ago there were plenty of "A Wo/Man Who Saw the Terror Attacks Coming."

And I'm not suggesting these people are crazy or out there on the fringe. Experts working in an area might agree what a worst case situation is, but disagree whether it is likely. If we took every worst case scenario entirely seriously, we would do very little else.

Learning from the past is important. But estimating the probability of things that have occurred is really difficult and counterintuitive.
Have a look at Gitlab. The source and the processes are available. I like the way they do things.

From the Gleam FAQ

"How is message passing typed?

Gleam doesn't currently have first class support for the BEAM's concurrency primitives such as receive, send, and spawn. This is because research is still ongoing as to the best way to apply a strong type system to them while still enabling established OTP patterns. For now these primitives should be used via the Erlang FFI, making them dynamically typed.

Many OTP patterns such as gen_server are functional in nature and don't require direct use of these primitives so these behaviours can be implemented in Gleam today."

I suspect the FB language might solve this.
> Or you just don't understand how it works. Dai is a complicated solution to a complicated problem, but its not some trick.

But the problem isn't complicated. If you need something worth 1USD, buy 1USD. It is by definition stable relative to 1USD. You don't need to understand complicated terminology or esoteric failure modes.

DAI is effectively never worth exactly 1USD: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/multi-collateral-dai/
Would be interesting to see this correlated with network logs to see if the apps phone home or just process it locally.

Now you'd never know if the app buffers until a convenient time but a less sophisticated implementation would be instant giveaway.
> This is currently a matter of legal debate, but I don't think platforms can be held accountable for (most of) the actions of their users.

it's not a legal argument being discussed. facebook certainly enables the actions of its users, even encouraging users via the site's features and suggestive behavior that emotionally attaches them to using the site. facebook, and basically every other social media platform, seek to "hack" the emotional state of their users to keep them coming back.

Seattle voted against it, outside of Seattle voted for it by a larger margin.

Given that the measure does nothing absolutely nothing to the counties who voted for it, I think I'm pretty justified in believing that their opinion on Seattle's tax system shouldn't matter one whit. If they don't want to pay more than $30 for car tabs, they should vote for it in their county, not across the state.

What ever made you think that you could trust them?
The real idea here is even beyond going long on ETH. It's multi collateral DAI. The idea that you can (eventually) lock up any collateralized asset and mint DAI. Need to take out a mortgage on a property you own? You can do it automatically and atomically through smart contracts without any middlemen. Eventually people could tokenize things like their future earnings and take out a loan against that now. As dystopian as that last point sounds, it illustrates the point.
