I was thinking about even deeper investigation, like DNA sampling, other chemical analyses in particular in the ground near or inside the sites.

Most often, the real value of having historical sites around is that even decades later there can be complementary investigations that were not thought of in the first place.
Clinical Microbiology Made Ridiculously Simple.

Fantastic breakdown of micro into understandable and memorable concepts, helped me get through intense classes while making it interesting via funny if cheesy mnemonics and artwork: https://www.amazon.com/Clinical-Microbiology-Made-Ridiculous...

All of the "Made Ridiculously Simple" texts from that publisher are fantastic, but imo the Clinical Microbiology is the best of the best.
Evidence looks like the police came in unprofessionally, unprepared, and embarrassed. This is not excusable. They are lucky more lives weren’t lost.
Or it would still exist, but would be monitized differently.
To me the crown jewl of SICP is the universal scheme interpreter they build in the later chapters. That opens the book to be used in _any_ language. Now we have an internet there are hobby schemes implemented in every language, so it's fairly easy to find ideas if you are stuck implementing the necessary substrate using the language of your choice (ie. mostly tokenizer, parser and some form of eval/apply).

Even though I like Python a lot, I clicked on a reply to this comment because I was absolutely certain I was going to have to disagree with you. That just didn't seem possible. But . . . I was wrong. That third link with generics makes me cry when I think about the go code I've written.

Because they hold a part of our digital history.
For a practical understanding of electronics, there's no need to go so far deep into the theory that you'd get "lost in all the electrons". I really like HyperPhysics for the basic, basic theory - http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/emcon.html#emcon I would go through the Circuit Elements tree first, then the Electric Circuits. If you want to go further, there are tons of college courses with lecture notes available online. You're probably looking for something like an EE201/Electronic Circuits. Here's one I found that seemed to have all the important topics: http://tuttle.merc.iastate.edu/ee201/topics.htm Unfortunately, sometimes the lecture notes are hard to understand since they're not meant to be a standalone tutorial. You may also check MIT or Stanford for their free course versions, which probably have the entire lecture.

From there, to be honest, I'm not sure what to suggest. One thing I usually recommend to people interested in electronics is to pick up a breadboard kit/tutorial like one by Elegoo on Amazon. It's slightly more programming focused, but it covers a lot of other circuit topics and it's a great way to get started with experimentation. I find that being able to actually produce something as you're learning makes it a lot more engaging.

Art of Digital design is a 2nd or 3rd year college level textbook so you might be missing some context there. I would say if you want to go further, look into a transistor-level circuit course (which I took after EE201). That covered both analog and digital transistor circuits, which supported the digital design class I was taking at the same time.
Two non-profits stop accepting Facebook funding
Yes, it's more of a "world heritage" concern. As in, these sites represent humanity's history and provide for our understanding of it collectively. The people descended most directly from those who originally inhabited these sites may have special concern with preservation, but heritage site preservation is a global collective responsibility.
The article you point to illustrates that that basic attitude and culture is under threat. I agree. Openness, being able to build on the works of others, and learning "how something ticks on the inside" are still basic to science though.

I, too, wish that what the article illustrates weren't happening, but are you really arguing that you can't take the idea from a published paper, understand it and build your own work on it? The FOSS philosophy is the closest equivalent for code.

I can appreciate that. And while evidence of Aboriginal life at some sites might be scant (age and geology being big factors), I don't think it would be an insane inconvenience to work around them for many things outside of very massive operations like mines, even if there are loads of sites.

I suspect the significance of these sites is being overplayed as a negotiating tactic on the back of the Rio Tinto incident. As it was, one of the authorities demoted half of the sites.

On the other hand, if there was a broad area of historical interest (heavily frequented by nomads, or well-preserved), usually it'd be set aside. It's possible that the best examples already have been.
Tbh I'd expected a little better than framing this question in a "REST vs GraphQL" discussion coming from sourcehut.org. If you control your backend, you can aggregate whatever payloads you please into a single HTTP response, and don't have to subscribe to a (naive) "RESTful" way where you have network roundtrips for every single "resource", a practice criticized by Roy Fielding (who coined the term "REST") himself and rooted in a mindset I'd call based more on cultural beliefs rather than engineering. That said, a recent discussion [1] convinced me there are practical benefits in using GraphQL if you're working with "modern" SPA frameworks, and your backend team can't always deliver the ever-changing interfaces you need so you're using a backend-for-fronted (an extra fronted-facing backend that wraps your actual backend) approach anyway, though it could be argued that organizational issues play a larger role here.

For me it comes down to a personal itch, which is usually along the lines of "What do you mean, I can't do XYZ???" or "I can't believe this isn't a thing!" or "The current implementations are terrible!" or "I don't believe it when everyone says it's impossible"

I do put in effort to make things useful to other people, and take their ideas to heart to widen the userbase, but ultimately it must be useful to me as well.

When you order through a delivery service, the restaurant is generally paid less than their normal menu price, and none of the tips go to the kitchen staff.

In addition to charging the restaurant, the delivery service charges the customer a higher price than the restaurant would. They add delivery fees and service fees. On top of that, the online menus in the delivery service apps often have higher prices than the restaurant’s “real” menu.

Restaurants often negotiate special deals with the delivery services, so all these details can vary. However, delivery app margins are much lower than carry out or dine in margins.

uBlock Origin also works very well on mobile, but you have to use Firefox. Mobile Chrome doesn't allow any extensions and I think we know why.
There can be multiple people at fault for a situation.

The answer is: both should be addressed.

The officers should be thoroughly investigated for this incident by an independent third party. If the facts support it they should be charged with the most advanced crime that the facts support (e.g. manslaughter).

Simultaneously, we should immediately discontinue and abandon no-knock warrants. If they're not abandoned entirely we should radically alter the burden of proof required to obtain one from probable cause to clear and convincing evidence.
Have you read this - https://blog.twitch.tv/en/2019/04/10/go-memory-ballast-how-i...
I deleted that comment. The thread was about someone killed by police during service of a no knock warrant, and the reasonableness of people in those circumstances assuming the intruders suddenly violently entering their home are there to harm them and so shooting in self defense.

My comment was essentially looking at it from a game theory point of view, and I was suggesting that the optimum move (shoot or not shoot) probably depends on the number of intruders.

I think it is an interesting question, but decided it was veering a bit too far off the topic, and also could easily be misinterpreted as a "blame the victim" thing aimed at the victims in the particular shooting under discussion, and so deleted it.
I'm curious why the refresh process is not popular now.
Reading the title I thought the topic was a marriage with an Entity Relationship document
So this is a good application of the birthday paradox actually and the fundamental misunderstanding people have of this is already a real problem in law enforcement.

Take DNA testing. We all know that given two samples the odds of a false positive are incredibly low. So DNA testing is a great too for eliminating people who might otherwise be suspects or further evidence against the guilty.

The problem is that given this DNA database, someone decided "let's find our suspect by looking for a match". With 1 in a billion chance of a random match and 100M samples, your chances of getting a false positive are really high.

The problem is that there are instances where a DNA match alone is used to prosecute or even convict people.

In recent years this problem has gotten worse due to the rise of familial DNA matching. Given two samples, we used to only have the ability to say if they were a match or not. Now we can say how much of a match they are. How much of a partial match is enough? What's more, you may be implicated by the stored DNA is relatives.

Facial recognition is far more imprecise than DNA. So yeah I fully expect this to get abused by prosecutors and law enforcement.

so much this, I was always able to draw simple projects in minutes. I tried fusion360 for a few minutes and figured that I would need to invest some serious time to get productive with it. I settled for the limited web version of sketchup, but it is a step back from the desktop sketchup of a decade or so ago. In some way it's kind of a relief that it's not me, there really isn't a proper alternative to sketchup of yore. Anyone looking for a startup idea here?
I'd love to know what the internal atmosphere was like when the IA did this. Who should I hold a grudge against for pulling possibly the stupidest move in the history of digital intellectual property?

I actually randomly wrote my own TAP producing test runner in TypeScript recently for no reason other than I wanted something to do while I was stuck at home during the pandemic. The protocol is pretty simple to follow although I do agree that you have to have something to orchestrate the whole thing up front. I actually wrote it for an example script for an asynchronous utilities library that had the equivalent of low level primitives like an async version of locks and barriers. The barriers were useful for orchestrating when the different tests ran so that I could make sure that build up and tear down happened at the right time before and after the tests. The locks insured that each tests logs didn’t print over each other as I proxies the console and ran the tests all at the same time and then I did the logging sequentially. I got most of it working but I haven’t touched it in about a month or two. I feel like it might not be a good thing to have those lower level paradigms in JavaScript just because it seems a bit like a foot gun. I’m also pretty certain it wouldn’t work in parallel programming situations just in async situations. I based my TAP producing test runner off a previous work I did in modifying a testing framework that Ryan Florence made in the size of a tweet. I modified it to support async functions [1]. I had to use the async lock in that one too.

This is the exact same reasoning letter by letter that was used against rock'n'roll at that time by republicans. They also didn't use state censorship, just private companies executing their rights. Just saying.

I haven't dug into Flutter too heavily yet. While I really like Flutter as a portable UI toolkit I have reservations about a) Dart as a language looks a bit like a step backwards from Swift & Kotlin, at least TS is portable and useful elsewhere and b) Outside of UI work I feel like Flutter is a little lacking, there is a bit missing in terms of databases, networking, state management. Interop with native modules is also a bit messy and painful last time I checked. I'm guessing these reservations will diminish in time provided Google keeps pushing Dart and Flutter forward.

History: imo, forget about textbooks. Books are much much better. Textbooks are less readable meant for people who will force themselves to go to lectures, revise, revise, write notes and actually study.

- "The Third Reich Trilogy" from Richard J. Evans about Germany during WWII is the best thing I read about WWII.

Now I am reading "The rebellious life of Mrs Rosa Park", pretty good too, although the topic is super specific.

Also, I would also recommend to have a look at "Lectures in History" podcast from c-span. They are are lectures from universities about American History. The lectures also contain book recommendations, so if you are interested in this or that topic, they are good source of books.

You are correct. It is not difficult to find at least one single fault in any human being.

Not sure - it seems that every well-known police murder case ended with a multi-million-dollar settlement, even though officers were often acquitted. Wikipedia has details on these.
Sure, let's tell private entities how to monetize their content that we enjoy.
The example image included in the synopsis seems a bit strange to me. It's not like they are comparing apples to apples - what they've done is essentially made the control elements blend as much into the page as possible. I don't believe that UI elements have to be of the ghost variant in order to be considered flat. They've taken away the 3D effects but they've also inverted the color scheme. As a result the very noticeable purple button became a white button. This seems to me as an unfair comparison - just removing the 3D effects would still make the then purple button fall under "flat design", no?

EDIT:
It seems like in most other examples they didn't do this: https://www.nngroup.com/articles/heatmap-visualizations-sign....

On the other hand however you can argue that just changing certain control elements and not the overall design as well will have an impact. It's possible that the control elements would have been more visible on a website where the rest of the aesthetic complements them.

Doubt anyone would save much money on hand tools. Going all hand tools is more of a luxury - those hand planes and speciality saws are not cheap and an absolute nightmare to maintain.

Any woodworker is going to need a collection of both. Things like a good chisel set are going to be essential no matter what.

The basic power tools like a circular saw and a table saw aren't all that expensive either. Even cheaper if you buy them second hand. Add in a drill press, a jigsaw, router, sander and that's pretty much the basic ensemble. With good sales, all of it can come around to 1-1.5k

The real expensive stuff is when people buy useless festool crap when they can make a jig.

I like to make my pretzels with sourdough starter discard, because I think the sourness adds a lot to what’s an otherwise fairly bland bread (you could argue it’s the dips that make the pretzel, though!)

I do this (makes 3 medium pretzels, enough for my wife and I to share)

40g sourdough starter discard

85g any beer (or water)

1 tsp each salt, yeast, sugar

160gm white flour

2 tbsp butter

I warm up the beer and butter until the butter’s just melted (not too hot, don’t boil it). Add the yeast, starter, and sugar. Give it a good stir.

In a decent-sized bowl add the flour and salt, then add the liquids. Give it a good mix with a wooden spoon. The dough should be just wet enough that there are no dry bits in the bowl, and it should all glom together easily. This is not a wet dough; I find about 58% hydration to be good. If it’s sticking to your fingers it’s probably too wet.

Take the dough out of the bowl, give it a bit of a knead (a few minutes should be fine, it should be fairly stiff to start with and easy to knead).

Form it into a ball and chuck it in an oiled bowl, let it rise for at least an hour, then take it out and mercilessly squish the dough. You want the flavour of the fermentation, but not the airiness. Pretzels should be fairly dense. No prize for big air bubbles here.

Form the pretzels (youtube, it’s easy) and put them on parchment/baking paper that’s been oiled/buttered. Chuck em in the fridge or freezer, they’re easier to handle when cold.

If using lye, make a 3% mix (30gm lye per litre of water; 1 litre should be enough) and when the pretzels are cold and stiff dunk them in the lye water for a minute each. Drain them and move them back to the parchment paper (might be good to oil it again) and give them a good dabbing with a paper towel to dry off the surface a bit. If you don’t the salt flakes you’re about to sprinkle will soak into the dough. Sprinkle salt flakes (you do want flakes not normal table salt). Chuck into a 200C oven on fan bake (or just bottom element) for 6-8 minutes until just past golden brown. Be sure to check on them, all ovens are different.
