For my purposes a single 4k 43" monitor is fine. Its not ultrawide either. No need to upgrade. I have another identical one at the other place I "nest". Its like using 4x HD (1920x1080?) monitors but no bezel in between. Very comfortable and the text doesn't hide in obscurity. Plenty of space for everything and doubles as a excellent TV when needed.

Personally I think most of the trouble people have is due to staring at screens too long. You shouldn't be spending more than an hour staring at a screen continuously anyway. Even thats probably excessive. Take a break.

Its kind of like those people who's eyes are so tired they change their preferences to light text on a light background. Ummmm. No. Not good.

But I'm an old programmer, amongst other hats, so what would I know? I remember when 640x480 was crystal clear and so sharp and 1024x768 was "wow" extra real estate!

If it makes you feel a little better about the world, I downvoted you because I thought you were wrong that no one supports this, not at all because I support burning police cars. I've definitely seen lots of support online that accepts the destruction of police (aka public) property as a legitimate (or at least expected) form of protest, and am surprised that you haven't. So yes, there are supporters, but possibly not quite as many as it would first appear.

Actually it is due to their distances.

MIT has its own publisher initiative that suits modern science - online, interactive, and open-source. PubPub[1][2] is closer to something like Authorea[3] and Overleaf[4]. It also includes the peer-reviewing features. UC just should have joined the project instead of wasting money with Springer. They seem lack the brave of the MIT management.

After the 2008 housing recession, the price of homes in suburban Cleveland dropped to some of the lowest levels in the country. You'd likely pay more for a new car than buying an entire house, after incentives like the first-time homebuyer's credit. The locally famous Cleveland Tourism video[0] said that you could buy a house for the price of a VCR and it's not too far off.

The Wikipedia page on AMD has a slightly different take (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amd#Technology_exchange_agreem...):

-quote-

Technology exchange agreement with Intel

Intel had introduced the first x86 microprocessors in 1978. In 1981, IBM created its PC, and wanted Intel's x86 processors, but only under the condition that Intel also provide a second-source manufacturer for its patented x86 microprocessors. Intel and AMD entered into a 10-year technology exchange agreement, first signed in October 1981 and formally executed in February 1982. The terms of the agreement were that each company could acquire the right to become a second-source manufacturer of semiconductor products developed by the other; that is, each party could "earn" the right to manufacture and sell a product developed by the other, if agreed to, by exchanging the manufacturing rights to a product of equivalent technical complexity. The technical information and licenses needed to make and sell a part would be exchanged for a royalty to the developing company. The 1982 agreement also extended the 1976 AMD–Intel cross-licensing agreement through 1995. The agreement included the right to invoke arbitration of disagreements, and after five years the right of either party to end the agreement with one year's notice. The main result of the 1982 agreement was that AMD became a second-source manufacturer of Intel's x86 microprocessors and related chips, and Intel provided AMD with database tapes for its 8086, 80186, and 80286 chips.

How much really was Intel sowing FUD vs. IBM demanding a second source be available is probably lost to time.
I've used LI to get a few interviews, but not a job. I'm not in 'tech' per se (bio stuff), so for me it's a mixed bag.

If you are going to use it for a job hunt, then use it aggressively. Message/cold-call people that you want to work for, send them a cover letter and CV, ask to talk off LI and on the phone/over-coffee asap. Cold-emailing people from a company directory is kinda the same thing here. The 'rules' for Tinder aren't that far off for LI, sad as that is.

Outside of a job hunt that you're preforming, yeah, it's mostly recruiter spam. The feed is practically useless in my experience, but I am not a power user.

All that said, networking is that key to getting hired.

Oh man, please allow me to do my best to offer some subjective validation of your life choices.

I grew up in one of the small, very coastal Australian towns that stayed beautiful but got expensive and boring (alternative seems to be: grew big and turned awful, not much middle ground here).

This was a ride your bike to school at 6 years old, spend one third of your life in the ocean, "just try to be home for dinner" town.

Then I spent some time in some of the nicer, central suburbs of a second tier Aussie city.

Then some small, blue collar northern European industry towns, then a major southern European city.

Of those, and given the chance/choice, I'd raise children in the tiny coastal village and the dense European city (within 100m of my apartment - pedestrian streets - there were two small playgrounds, a market, a school, a library, a park, the beach was a 15min walk). Anywhere between those two extremes and adventure turns into a thoroughly planned outing, with a strict time limit on the paid parking if you got lucky and found a spot.

The moderate densities are (or become) sprawling nothings with one coles/woolies/liquorland/bws/bunnings "hub" and long commutes to anywhere. Like you, many of my friends who plan to become young families seem to gravitate towards these starter-package lives, and although I'm probably listening for it, I hear the same regret and resignation from them that you do.

Older relatives live in more expensive versions of the same thing, with a better quality finish on the bathroom and a glass fence on the pool they never use, and an 80k SUV for the just-as-long commute. There might be a flashy bowls club filled with pokies instead of a shitty tavern filled with pokies.

Keep fighting the good fight. We build these 5 bedroom homes in the suburbs so that we're comfortable staying home. Because there's nothing to do outside, because we spent so much energy building nothing suburbs.
Can confirm. Most government agencies have the SBIR program which funds 6 months of work for $100k. A phase II is $750k for 2 years. The Phase I is typically TRL 3/4 (though I've had a TRL 2 contract before). You'd be surprised what you can get done on such a small budget.

Edit: This was an aerospace company too

What you write is generally true. You're taking it to an unjustified extreme, though, and glossing over the fact that the advantages diminish rapidly as one descends the socioeconomic ladder, to the point where the "white advantage" for impoverished folks looks more like regular fluctuations in the noise than it does a clear above-the-noise signal. That is to say: the poorest whites might on average have some advantage over their peers in some contexts, but as a matter of practice day-to-day living isn't that different.

I know there is a lot of well-deserved focus on the ways our racist systems do more damage to blacks. That doesn't mean we should exaggerate, simply because the ground truth is horrific enough.
According to a old AppSec talk, they used a third-party security company to implement this stuff. They are a customer to a company called ‘Arxan Technologies’ that implements these ‘guards’ in their software. They’re very good at not revealing this, but it came up whilst looking at their private API.

These secret keys are there but heavily obfuscated and is nothing more than white-box cryptography which can be bypassed via emulation.

I've only seen it get worse as I've spent my time here. Has it ever been worse in terms of wealth disparity? I think it will continue to get worse short of radical change. (Prop 13 dying, rezoning w/ hundreds of thousands of apartments built, radical public transit, etc.)

That article gives such a bad argument that I feel I have now become more pro using the term than before. All of the arguments have huge exceptions or contradict each other.

Signaling being a term used by some niche fields. We have that happen all the time. It’s how language evolves.

The article says to use show off instead of virtue signaling. Right after the next argument is assuming the person is disingenuous. Which is exactly what you’re doing if you say they’re showing off. The two arguments can’t both be used. They are arguments against different things.
Do you think that when police wrongly kill people, they don't also assume the victim is guilty and file it as justified? When they kill a black person during a minor, not violent crime, do you think it's ok because of the correlation with a crime?

Also, since police are notorious for hiding and protecting such metrics, care to provide any sources?

I would agree with you. Being able to understand what activities go on downstream (solution space) of your work makes you even more effective. Glad you enjoyed the article.
Whole blood donation generally is only allowed every 8 weeks. Double-red blood cell donation is allowed every 16 weeks up to a maximum amount per 12-month period. I believe Plasma can be safely donated every 4 weeks. Doesn't tell you specifics about the study, but know there are different kinds of blood donation and different frequencies that are permitted for each.

I think it's common for regular donors to donate almost as often as is recommended.
Idk, World War II ended a genocide, and the US civil war (mostly) ended slavery in the US. Both were pretty violent events if I'm remembering correctly. That being said, destroying property isn't violence, and "crime" is kind of a useless metric for morality. Slavery and genocide in the instances above were not legally crimes. Your opinion of police or nazis will color how much you view, say destroying a police car or a German tank as a morally wrong.

Black people in the US constantly fear being killed or harassed by police. Yeah, burning a car doesn't solve anything, but keeping quiet and playing ball since the civil rights movement hasn't really moved the needle. Policing and constant surveillance of black communities has gotten worse since then, and protections for police, both legally and politically, have increased. Sometimes you have to burn a car or break some glass for the nation to pay attention.

Also I would say that the initial reaction of rioting is what drove people to organize and peacefully protest, and in a lot of US cities and states, the combination of these has already resulted in policy change. I'm sure most of these people are also posting on social media and planning to vote as well.

I guess this is a long winded way of saying that torching a car is small potatoes compared to government sanctioned murder and oppression, and this kind of thing is forcing people to pay attention and have conversations about this stuff.
I don't know but since I was young it always seemed intuitive that blood-letting ought to have some good effects. If xyz bad things buildup (say, heavy metals) exist in the blood stream, and you remove a few % of your blood stream to make new blood, haven't you removed some xyz bad buildup?
I'm reminded of the 90s, I landed a job using IRIX as my desktop. In the days of 72dpi monitors, the 144dpi 21:9 SGI display was a wonder! I think it also worked on the Mac, but there was no scaling like there is today, where there is a render pipeline and application pixels != screen pixels.

> The building is rent stabilized so maybe they fear that lowering the rent will make it impossible for them to hit certain numbers over the next few years?

A friend of mine was speculating this as well -- that the market hasn't moved as much as it could because landlords are worried about getting “locked in” at a lower rate. My hunch is that it's not entirely true yet, or else we'd be seeing more concessions (free first month, etc.) that don't impact the stabilized price -- at least in my Manhattan building, even concessions that have been offered (off and on) under normal circumstances are not listed any more.

You seem to be misinterpreting the study. The $9-10 a month number is for the median zipcode in the US, which is unlikely to be an urban area. And it represents the difference for each 1% increase in Airbnb listings. So a median zipcode with 10% more Airbnb listings would see a ~$100 difference in rent from a similar median zipcode.

Assuming that 'a fifth of the overall increase' is correct, that means that a place like SF can attribute at least a few hundred dollars a month in rent increases to AirBnB, as the median rent has increased by almost ~$2k since AirBNB came into existence.
The main reason is that there are cards with far better rewards. The question is whether or not you’d qualify for them.
That’s kind of a moot point as SpaceX is not going to put satellites over the Atlantic without that capability or even build out their network. Everything is still very much in testing phases right now.

There are various blood removal method, one of method that I’ve seen and commonly used is Hijamaz/Bekam. A small incision is made on the skin (usually the back); then a suction cup is used to draw the blood out. It is widely popular in Asia, I usually see it done by Moslem as they are recommended by their prophet to do so. Make sure the method is correct and that the equipment is sterile though.
> A species that goes years without losing any blood, is effectively operating its body in an evolutionary out-of-spec configuration. It might work, for a while; but it wasn't heavily optimized for.

I think your/the hypothesis fails...take certain species of jellyfish that are biologically immortal, they don’t have blood at all.

Coincidentally they are considered top of the food chain, so another knock to the hypothesis.

What no one has yet discussed is being a plasma donor to keep the bad proteins down that have accumulated over time. You can donate 1 pint plasma up to twice a week, they replace it with saline and return the red cells to you. If someone went weekly, say, they would sooner or later have removed all the old plasma by dilution with the new plasma that replaces it - I dont have any data on how many donations it would take to remove 95% of the old plasma. No albumin is needed since you are only removing 1 unit and the body can replace it quickly, not like removing half the blood volume at once. Plus, they pay you to donate. - Jay Caplan
>I think the existing base of 8080 software (including CP/M software) was on their minds.

This is the generally accepted history. According to what's in Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_8086#The_first_x86_desig...) the design was developed very quickly, and intentionally built as a straightforward 'extension' of the 8080/8085 chips into the 16-bit world:

-quote-

The first x86 design

The 8086 project started in May 1976 and was originally intended as a temporary substitute for the ambitious and delayed iAPX 432 project. ... Both the architecture and the physical chip were therefore developed rather quickly by a small group of people, and using the same basic microarchitecture elements and physical implementation techniques as employed for the slightly older 8085 (and for which the 8086 also would function as a continuation).

Marketed as source compatible, the 8086 was designed to allow assembly language for the 8008, 8080, or 8085 to be automatically converted into equivalent (suboptimal) 8086 source code, with little or no hand-editing. The programming model and instruction set is (loosely) based on the 8080 in order to make this possible. However, the 8086 design was expanded to support full 16-bit processing, instead of the fairly limited 16-bit capabilities of the 8080 and 8085.
