>> I believe the other three will be charged and convicted. At least that what I hope will happen.

Sadly, "belief and hope" hasn't worked for entire swaths of the population. If "belief and hope" worked, we could just "hope" there wont be riots and everything would be merry.

In reality, every two months something horrible happens happens and gets on the news. It probably happens much more than that and isn't on the news. And if it wasn't on video -- it is like it didn't happen.

It is rare to have video. It is even more rare for a charge. Even more for a conviction. I dont think looting is the answer here, but i seriously question the judgement of people who actually think there is no problem of police violence.

Even if you think that police violence is rare, there is the added problem of no consequence. I grew up with case after case, the most memoriable wones were https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shooting_of_Amadou_Diallo and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodney_King#Beating

Replying to myself, this implies that near Greenland, the gravitational effect of the ice cap should be ~30 times as big as the moon's (which causes a tide of a little over a meter). Which doesn't seem horribly implausible.

I agree that mixing cash flow and profits is confusing. But that doesn't change the point: not turning a profit means you lose money on every sale (which was not the case of Amazon, the profits were just small compared to the sales volume), it's by definition unsustainable unless there is a very strong plan mid-term (like not "self-driving cars" for example). The question is legitimate, though the word "allow" is maybe not the best choice.

The methodology mentions nothing about randomization so its unclear if there was any selection bias here.

If you look a table 2, the control group was on average 6 years older and had more co-morbidities. This suggests that there was some selection bias and that other undocumented factors could have greatly affected this experiment.

Doing multi-variate analysis with such a small sample size gives rise to huge uncertainties. In all, this study is only very weak evidence.

I wonder, when I see stories about studies about treating patients with basic nutrients and vitamins, if a root-cause to consider is that our standard diets are so deprived of essential vitamins and minerals that "treating" someone with what they have been missing causes the body to simply function the way it's supposed to. I haven't read the full study but if it takes into account what someone's diet was prior to this treatment as well as their vitamin and mineral levels (however that is measured) I think it would be more interesting to see how such a vitamin boost affects those who are vitamin starved versus those who were taking a "decent amount" of vitamins but where given a boost because of an illness. It just seems the more we learn in this field the more it shows us what we don't know.
If you have a study that shows higher all cause mortality please link it.

My hypothesis would be that healthy people don't take vitamins because they never saw the need, putting already sick people in the second category. I doubt that taking vitamins can actually do much harm in low doses.
While I agree to an extent about Russia, perhaps it's a bad example since they have always been a land power.
Meanwhile, China is returning to its status as a global sea power, by investing heavily in its navy.

Do you think the European powers after WW2 would have even gone along with the Bretton Woods agreement without the U.S. having been the first nuclear power? France in particular did not want to go along with it, referred to it as America's "exorbitant privilege", then proceeded making nuclear weapons a national priority. Then in 1965, Charles De Gaulle sent the French Navy to the U.S. to pick up the French gold reserves. This lead, along with other factors, to the Nixon Shock and ending the gold peg.

There are numerous historical examples. When you run a global empire, even a benevolent one, you still have to enforce it. Otherwise, you're just left with worthless pieces of paper.

Honestly, it is funny to me that the group most dedicated to standing up and fighting against a tyrannical government and refuses to believe that the military would be called in against peaceful protesters is still standing on the sidelines and watching the violence unfold. The day they realize that they and the BLM movement are mostly on the same side for this issue (anti government heavy-handedness) will be the day that these protests start getting seriously scary.

> In the process I have found that even HIPAA is not a protocol, it is a largely unspecific set of guidelines for how patient data should be stored and transmitted.

Former HIPAA security officer here; to be abundandly clear, there _are_ very specific guidelines for which information must be anonymized.

I don't think you were saying the alternative, just sounded a little like "anything goes" which is definitely not the case.

As for your point about guidelines, that's entirely true - last time I read the section about encryption, it just specified "state of the art encryption" which is... a poor way to specify that.

My 2017 MBP 15 has a major issue with my LG HDR monitor since a recent Catalina update.

I understand abstaining from a platform on principle.

But it's pretty simple to opt-out of non-essential telemetry because so many people complained about it in Windows 10:

https://www.windowscentral.com/how-view-and-manage-diagnosti...

I set telemetry to 'basic' which means I'm comfortable with essential system data being sent in return for my system gaining updates and security patches.

Microsoft does a better job than many about explaining what data it collects, why it collects it, and how to disable collection where possible across its products:

https://privacy.microsoft.com/en-US/

Last year it started explaining which telemetry in Windows 10 is required (system data for updates/security) and which is optional (usage data to shape product direction) in a way that's largely free from legalese:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4468236/diagnostics...

There are definitely Windows users who are “being ignorant about this topic” but that's not true of everyone. For me it's a combination of understanding what is sent, why it's sent, and how to control what's sent. That info used to be a lot harder to find so I'd say things are improving.

Reflecting on my own risk profile, seeing first-hand how much telemetry can benefit product teams, and learning about how the Windows update process works at a global scale (the “essential” telemetry class informs partial/phased roll-outs) also helped temper my initial reaction against telemetry being included at all.

My unscientific conclusion is that the vast majority of people world-wide probably suffer from at least one and probably more significant nutrient deficiency. With that we are wasting our "performance potential" and, less capitalistic, our "well-being potential". The lack of any of just those nutrients I looked up can cause anything from debilitating brain fog, over physical and mental deterioration to numerous physical ailments...

Yet for most of them, taking them in excess causes the exact same problem. If I was filthy rich I would get nutrient levels measured once a week. (-;
One needs to find a note-taking tool that fits one's workflow. I do a lot of analysis using R and compose many documents in Rmarkdown using R-Studio. I keep a git repository with "tips" - one Rmarkdown document per subject area and master document that links all the others. I can access my notes from any computer and it is easy to keep them in sync. Like Zettelkasten's creator, writing (and editing) these help refine my thinking.

Here's another one: the majority of Canada's population actually lives south of the 49 parallel, which for the most part is the US border.

The reason is most of the population is in Ontario and Quebec, and the majority of that population is south of the 49th. The southernmost part of Canada at Niagara falls is actually at the same latitude as northern California. Which is why it is a big wine growing region.

> necessarily a morally correct decision

This is where the problem is: life is way more complex and nuanced to distill down to such a simplistic scenario. Measuring morality is not an instantaneous action.
1) the center of the ice sheet can be much closer to the water than the center of the earth. Some water around greenland is at 600 km from the center of the ice sheet, and 6000 km from the center of the earth. This factor 10 difference is squared because gravity's strength drops off with the square of distance.

2) Both forces are orthogonal, so you take the ratio to get an idea of how much the ice sheet attraction is slanting the water surface. This might be a very small angle, but if you have a small angle sustained over hundreds of kilometers then you can arrive at a height difference of meters. E.g. if the ratio is 10^5, then you have a 1 meter height difference at 100km distance (ignoring that the ratio actually changes over that distance to simplify).
Ok you don’t like it, but how does it compare to having open Nazis marching in your country (presuming you’re American)? Surely you dislike that a lot more?

Ideally we don’t have people punching genocidal racists because they don’t exist to punch. But if they exist and they’re marching in the streets, often protected by a police force which is (certainly now) quite obviously full of far right-wing violent authoritarians, I’d have other priorities than condemning the anti-fascist.

I would say that one of the goals of note taking is to make it so that you don't need to go back to them. If you write notes about a book you read, not copy-pasting the exact quotes, but writing your understanding, you'll be more likely to remember it later. And if, at some point you want to remember more, then you actually go to the note and check.

Shameless plug of some debugging options in Python: https://stribny.name/blog/2019/06/debugging-python-programs
This is a good overview and I agree with almost all of the points. For the last 20 years I have owned nothing but Mac computers (going back to OS 9 days).

I have a MacBook Pro for work so 5 years ago I bought myself a $750 Asus Zenbook and installed Windows and Ubuntu on it, expecting to just use the Ubuntu partition.

With the release of WSL, suddenly my Windows laptop is my favorite machine for both personal use and for development. It's just so nice to have all the Linux developer tools side-by-side with every major desktop app/game on the Windows side.

I will likely never buy another Mac computer with my own money, Windows + WSL has won me over.

(Aside: I recently switched from Android to iOS after 10 years. If you had told me back then I'd be an iPhone / Windows user I'd be stunned)

Sedition | Senior Front-End Developer | Remote (Europe) | https://www.seditionart.com/

Sedition is a platform for selling and collecting digital artworks. We've been doing this for the last 10 years and since have become one of the industry leaders. Our artwork collection consists 4000+ artworks including works from artists like Tracey Emin, Shepard Fairey, Yoko Ono and many other well renowned names. Every sold artwork is a limited edition and collectors have the right to resell their collected artworks. Our goal is to create a platform for art collecting in digital space.

This year we've gained some exciting traction and looking for new people to help improve the product. We're a small team based in Europe, originally in London but since February we ditched our last office and became fully remote.

As a front-end developer you will be working on improving our website (React / TypeScript) and apps (React Native). Occasionally we would ask you to help with back-end (Ruby on Rails) and possibly other things Tizen OS, WebOS, Chromecast.

I think your skepticism and concern is well placed -- the output is what matters. But I'm a little confused about one aspect: what is it that you perceive as "complicated" and "complex" in this? Genuinely curious and not meant to be snarky.
Facebook should provide the platform and stop there. When they act as publishers and start editorialising or adding "platform opinions" to the user generated content, they can rightly be asked why they endorse everything else on their site that isn't "edited" or "added to".

We need to think real hard about what we want in 5 years and beyond from now... not just what we want now. Breaching the divide of platform and publisher for anything beyond light moderation to keep the platform usable, no matter how well intentioned, is bound to have a devastating result on future political expression.
I'm a bit confused about your argument, then. Antifa aren't violent against just anyone that doesn't share their politics. It's not a single organisation with a uniform political ideology, so that wouldn't make sense. It's more like the practise of aggressive confrontation specifically against authoritarian, right-wing movements, especially those which have some level of support from the state and/or police.
