>Nobody is really running an RNA sequencing experiment to evaluate the impacts of a drug on the rna transcriptome with falsification in mind (even if in a sense the null of "nothing changes" is what you're trying to falsify"). Psychologically it's just seen as some exploration to see what happens.

Isn't this, along with and maybe encouraging p-hacking, a major cause of the non-reproducability crisis? Scientists hunting out supporting evidence instead of showing their theories don't easily break?
No, they're not saying it's innovative or amazing, they are simply calling it a "responsive, comfortable, and quiet typing experience", which I guess is true.
EU isn't a federal government. It has very little practical ability to boss member countries around, and this is by design/democratic will of the member states (insofar you believe that this many levels of indirection still add up to a democracy).

If we wanted to turn EU into a federation, we would've done it. As it is now, member states cling to their sovereignty (IMO quite unfortunately).
If you have ever used telehealth, it is almost always cheaper than a physical doctor's visit. My provider is only $45 or so for the standard 15-or-so minute call.
That's correct. Not building/re-building the containers constantly. However, the initial build takes forever and some containers tend to crash (e.g., Prisma). Plus, in our case where we're using Angular, the recompiling of the app on change sends the fan into overdrive and I get noticeable lag on application switching. Again, this is on a 2013 MBA, which is almost ridiculous, but I'm that type of person. Still proudly sporting my iPhone SE. My development partner is on the 2019 MBA and has noticed improvement, but albeit rather underwhelming.

As an aside, I haven't taken the time to pin point the exact problem, but as much I prefer to use Firefox, it doesn't seem to do a great job of managing resources for the SPAs we're building.
Apple has long had a “Magic” keyboard.
We need a new deal for public health
New online accelerator – to combat coronavirus world and aftermath
When did this ever matter on an iPad?
We are working on this! It originally started out just as a visual representation however now it factors into the model. Check out branch feat/hospital-bed-model
With last 48 hours we have put together 100% free online accelerator for HealthTech, GovTech, FoodTech, EdTech, remote work - startups - those who has STRONG IMPACT shaping TODAYS’s and the post-crisis WORLD. Backed by unicorn founders from Skype, Unity, Bolt, Pipedrive & Taizo Son & 30+ founders & investors.
Would be amazing if you can recommend me personally who are the best candidates - around the world, so i can contact them ASAP!

That's not how margins work. God didn't descend down to earth and declared all restaurants to be low margin. Margin is a matter of competition. If there is lots of competition then the margin will shrink to barely cover costs of running the business. If suddenly every restaurant has a problem finding customers and a load of debt then restaurants are forced to increase their margins to cover their debt payments.

Low margins are the result of heavy competition. If there is less competition margins will be high again.
Hmmm...

An identity is something that does not change the left operand

a * i = a

0 for + and 1 for x pass this test.

But for Boolean && neither True nor False pass the identity test because,

( True as identity)
False && True = False
True && True = True

( False as identity)

False && False False
True && False = False

Perhaps there is more to it....
- How about self-body scanning for dating apps? You can add it on your profile as a "LiDAR 3d-model" bonus so interested parties know they're not getting catfished. Yeah, you can always scan your hot friend, but it just requires another level of deception.

- How about a "night-vision" app? Without needing a flashlight, you can stumble around a dark room (maybe outdoors at night?) without running into walls.

~1 million is the current annual death rate in the US (~0.8% last I checked), and the disease kills older people much more than younger people. How many of those 2 million would have died anyway in the next couple of years? How many would have contributed to the economy over the next few years? How many of those who will die from a recession would have contributed to the economy?

These are tough questions, but I think they're worth answering so we know what we're really gaining by shutting down the economy. I know we want to save as many lives as possible, but we should also know the cost too.
If they had other opportunities at higher rates, they would have lent at that rate.

I'm very long caffeine in that scenario actually, fewer smokers than the last time we had massive currency devaluation. It's annoyingly tough to store unfortunately.

MacBook Air, the new MacBook for Pros.
Yep, thinkpad carbon X1 are probably the best non-mac I've owned.
I still mis-hit one of the arrow keys about 20% of the time with the annoying 'full size left and right' arrow key arrangement. Going back to inverted-T makes perfect sense. It was an experiment that failed.
Looks like the DFI board in question uses a 2-pin screw terminal block for power, 12v +-5%.
You want to go back to Windows Mobile days and deploy your apps as .cab files on xda-developers?
Yeah, I've been burned by Apple's poor software many times, but I would come back for an 11-12" laptop with more than one USB port. They were so close...

Is that too much to ask? From any OEM?
I use sidecar when I'm on the go with my iPad.
You can trade-in for a new machine.

Or do you mean partial refund when you say coupon?
Aside from that, it's very important to remember that this dashboard shows confirmed cases, not infections. Trends and patterns are as much about testing/reporting as about the virus itself.
There's something wrong with your setup &| stack. I've run a full stack locally, a build setup with a watcher, a django/gunicorn setup with file watching, mysql/redis/rabbitmq, and i barely nudge the cpu.

I'm betting your if you cpu is hot constantly while developing, it's file watching that's the issue. I had to do some work to get things to use proper file system events in macos and not just polling with my legacy gulp project. try installing fsevents if it's not already?
It mentions "Chinese patients" which means that at least generally, cloroquine is not yet used here (Italy) as an accepted/attempted therapeutic protocol (although I'm sure it was used for compassionate use).

Toclizumab is a different story, since there's now a proper trial with 300 patients starting on Thursday.
If you have an external 'magic keyboard' the feel is similar. Less mushy than the old 'chicklet' keys on the 2015-and-earlier laptops, but less stiff/unmoving than the butterfly keys on the 2016-2018 laptops.
What about the last generation iPad Pro?
The economy is an engine that isn't allowed to stop or it will break. The idea behind loans is that you force the engine to keep turning through external support. Yes this is obviously a money losing strategy but the value of the engine is much higher than the cost of keeping it running during the pandemic.
ECC would be cool for using these for remote builds. Don't know if that's ever going to happen.
"websites"
Did I ever say I like the situation? We are literally surrounded bu stupid and sometime outright criminal (in a normal human sense) laws. Civil forfeiture alone - whoever came up with this brilliant idea deserves a jail time. Go call them a-holes. Feels better?
It doesn't seem to have any differences with the current model that are really important, so it should bring down the price of 2018 models significantly on the used market. Being a whole 2 years old instead of the latest version is a big difference, and iPad pros in general aren't holding their value like macs do.

For me, they've always been "kind of neat to have, but not for $2200".

This is essentially the same type of keyboard from before the crappy design you ended up with. I've had a MBP 2014 since release with that keyboard and I love it. I can't express enough how good it feels to type on (although some personal preference).

I also tried out the new version of that keyboard on the recently-released MBP. It feels almost the exact same as the old one, just a slightly more shallow depth.

Hopefully that's helpful.
Working at one's "dream job" is an easy way to be taken advantage of, sadly.
FYI you can do audio device selection from the little “airplay” icon in the top right of the audio widget in control center. It’s not really obvious but it’s separately clickable.
My parents have fallen prey to a quack like this. They think he walks in water, but he has done so many bad procedures on my family. It is sad, but it is hard to convince them how harmful many of the procedures are given that they won’t bother to change their unhealthy lifestyle.
What kind of code is it?
Certainly, the next few years of my learning to program was unlearning ideas I had developed from coding in Visual Basic. But it gave me the start in understanding how functions work, how sub-procedures work, and how objects work. More importantly though, Visual Basic gavve me the excitement and possibility that I could make this thing on my family's desk do pretty much whatever I wanted. And Visual Basic made that very accessible.
> We had higher paid jobs (or more yield per job, a single working person could support a family, buy a house, send kids to college) in the 50s and 60s for example

So, your proposal is to bomb Europe and Asia's industrial base to increase America's relative competitiveness?

If we're talking apples to apples about the world economy of the 50s and 60s...
The two sentence above clearly oversell the product: "refined", "delivers", "help you fly", plus all the details for something that is already known... It's not because everybody is doing glorified marketing, which often results in being deceptive, that we have to be okay with it.
wish apple would seriously do something about safari.

Don't be an asshole.

Parent misattributed the pronoun, sure. And then they were asked to not do that.
Smells fishy to me. Also too bad Japan is hardly testing, the article said it’s useless once it’s multiplied, so I guess it’s not going to do much unless it’s used early ?
When Apple switched to Intel they rented developers a custom dev kit machine before the consumer products launched. If they change over to ARM, this could very well be the dev kit hardware.
Exactly what I was thinking when I read the spec sheet: 'I wonder how many developers will go for the maxed out version.'
And get your union to scream bloody murder if you are not allowed this essential safety equipment, and put complaints in writing so your heirs can later sue to oblivion.

I was talking to a doctor yesterday, from Silver Spring, Maryland, right outside of DC. They ran out of N95 masks some time ago and can't find any more. They're using simple surgical masks now. Complaining won't make those N95 masks appear any faster.

What they're doing now is that each week there is one dedicated doctor who deals with Covid cases. This is to prevent the entire department from getting infected.
Then you dont deserve Apple.
Right, `min` makes sense for lattices too, not just total orders.
Apple, please make the ipadOS eco system developer friendly. I'd buy it instantly. If Visual Studio Code was available there, that'd be amazing.

In recent years they became an Intel but without an AMD in sight, they do it because they can.
Yes.

My system does it like this.

The internet presents a unique challenge to privacy. You have to physically connect somewhere. Normally that connection is also tied to your account. This means you they know who and where you are at all times. VPNs can help but are a single point of failure if the government ever shuts them down or installs backdoors.

If you go for the free Starbucks Wi-Fi plan on a tablet, you have some chance but you need to always have access to this kind of proxied connection. Additionally, you are likely to get fingerprinted fairly quickly based on services used and how the ad networks cross target. At the very least, they will know when and where you are at that Starbucks. I really think we have lost. The best we can hope for is E2EE baked into secure chips on our devices to at least protect our messaging.
Looks nice. I wish they would use numbers on these things, though. It's difficult to find support when searching "mac mini" could bring back results from multiple generations of different hardware and software.
I'm in the same boat. While I much prefer the more natural feel of the ReMarkable, I want to use apps like GoodNote that allow for a seamless transition between typing and handwriting, and let you move around images that you've drawn in your notes.

I'd be curious to hear what criteria you're using to make your decision.
It's remarkable what you can do with automation. There's a small factory that produces a large proportion of the world's manual industrial power switches here in Helsinki.

It's basically a few machines that crank them out like no tomorrow, and then the associated personnel to keep the machines running and doing some hard to automate jobs. (Some hundreds of people perhaps.) And sales guys.
Thanks for the thoughts. I'd like to see something like that too.
They better fix the cooling system though, last year Air had a passive system without a heatpipe between the CPU and system fan and people complained.

TDP seems to be a bit higher here, so let's see if they've managed to do something better than just blowing air (heh) into the chassis.
I use zoom to teach. He can have his slides up through screen sharing and with a touch screen laptop write directly on the screen. In addition, I use a program called Nearpod which is free right now. He could see his students working on problems in real time.
A bit uncomfortably quick to point out that humans don't have subspecies... Oh boy thats one ladder you don't want to go down. Career ending in fact with this climate.
I recommend Ed Catmull’s book Creativity Inc about the founding of Pixar.
The Mac Minis are still expensive and underwhelming (even when maxed out) when compared with the top of the range NUCs with even AMD GPUs. The Skull and Ghost Canyon NUCs are great for Linux CIs or building large projects or I could even go far to either Hackintosh a few NUCs to surpass the need to buy a Mac Mini anyway for next 5 years.

Thanks, but I would skip this Mac Mini and go for the latest maxed out NUC instead.
Now it runs most desktop web apps (like Google Docs) just fine, so they've obviously been making a lot of improvements. Everything that came with iOS 13 has been a huge improvement for web browsing on the iPad.
You're not alone, don't worry with the gate keeping here.
Hah! For those who don't get it, this is an homage to how Steve Jobs first introduced the iPhone.

He said (a few times): "An iPod, a phone, an internet mobile communicator... these are NOT three separate devices!"
hi lucb1e, the purpose of Opendemic is to increase the public's awareness in a time where confirmed cases are distant and too small that they create a false sense of security. We think we can do that by making cases more tangible. We also blur the GPS location by about 111m to preserve privacy. Other forms of geolocation are also valid like geoIP.

That said, please keep the feedback coming!
I tried quite a few replacements, including ThinkPad X1 and LG gram. Something felt off in all cases, until I realized that 16:10 aspect ratio for 13in laptop was key. That frankly eliminated quite a few options. Additionally, X1’s trackpad and Gram’s keyboard felt quite bad.

At the end, in a whim, I tried a cheap Motile 142 from walmart ($329 at the time). 14in monitor seems to offset the aspect ratio quite well, the trackpad and keyboard are decent. Additionally, it is Amd 3500U, which seems well supported by the newer kernels. Upgrading with 16gb ram and NVMe ssd, also pushed the performance and usability of the machine.

At the end, I don’t think there is an universal answer to this. But with some experimentation, I’m pretty sure you can find a nice machine that works well for you.

PS: Motile laptop is also 2.55 lbs, which is a great weight for that size.
the article itself is a decent intro explanation. I'm mainly talking about all the comments in this thread getting into monoids and abstract algebra when a sufficient explanation can be found in first-year cs material. it's a consequence of how all_of and any_of relate to each other.
Even as someone who does a lot of presenting to audiences, I find recording video of myself speaking all by myself is really awkward. I suppose it's something one can get used to but I find it very hard. My usual approach is to do a quick video introduction to humanize it and then just talk over slides.
That's pretty obvious. Germany has superior industry, yet thanks to Euro they are able to keep prices reasonably low. If Mark was still used, it would have cost 2 USD and others could compete at least in prices. This hurt even more Italy. Next, Germany managed to build a cheap suppliers chain out of former East Block countries (especially Poland).

Make sure your node_modules directory is mapped to a local volume inside docker (not synced to your Mac). This dramatically improves build performance in Docker for Mac. If using docker compose, try this out https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29181032/add-a-volume-to...
Only up to 6-core 8th generation CPUs, and it looks like the base 6-core SKU is the i5-8500, which doesn’t have Hyperthreading. Ouch.

It’s such a shame that’s the best Intel can do in that thermal envelope.

AMD is about to ship Ryzen 4000 mobile chips with lower TDP, great integrated graphics, higher clock speeds and more cores. It would have worked fine in the Mac mini. Imagine how good the desktop APUs will be when those come out.
Ok, shut that business down then. Layoff all workers. If all you can think about is profit at the expense of everyone else then this is the course of action. I personally am in favor of solving a liquidity crisis with liquidity but well if people want to throw a wrench in the gears that's fine with me.
Seriously considering trading my maxed out 2018 13" for this, but in the end probably not going to do it.
China: Avigan Effective in Tackling Coronavirus
This can be listed among the moral hazards of bailouts. These companies know that when a downturn occurs, the government or the Fed will bail them out.

It almost makes one question the definition of "exploitation."

"Hey, your employer is extracting far more value from you than they're paying you for. You should be paid more."

"Yes, but I don't really need to be."

Is that "exploitation?"
This is a dumb question, but you're talking about using docker, right? Doesn't docker spin up an entire vm for containers? That does seem pretty heavy for a MBA of any generation?
Oh wow, that's a well managed list of expectations... Do you realise who the iPad is made for and why? Your network troubleshooting with MAC access requirements represents <0.01% of people who would use iPad for that.

Just get the right tools for your job (that exist for decades, and have been slimmed to down to portable, few mm devices knows as laptops) and don't expect Apple to suddenly make iPad do everything that your job requires you to do.

Apple lost you as a customer and a developer, but it gained few hundred million more, including my parents who now know how to use computers and phones. I don't get people that don't get it.
Do you develop on your iPad via a cloud server? How?

Are there alternative development environments?
Whether or not intent matters in my world is utterly irrelevant, clearly intent doesn't matter when it comes to the US govt.
Kafka Rolling Upgrade on Kubernetes
As an owner of Galaxy Tab S6, I can assure you, that's not true.

The comparable configuration (256 GB/LTE/pen+keyboard) is around ~$670 cheaper for Samsung than Apple.

I.e. Apple: $1049 (11", 256GB, LTE) + $129 (pen) + $299 (keyboard); for Tab S6 bundle I paid £684.25 (before VAT), which makes it around ~$806.

So if by basically the same price you meant almost half the price, then yes, otherwise no.
> The appropriate course of action for distressed companies that have engaged in share buybacks is that they should issue new shares to raise capital. If they can’t raise enough capital through share issuance, they should enter Chapter 11 bankruptcy and be restructured. If they cannot pull through a restructuring, they should go out of business. That’s how capitalism works.

If Uncle Sam stopped bailing out corporations, I wonder how differently they would do business.
Ask HN: Why would a coder buy a glossy screen laptop?
