Civilization means complex urbanized society. Doesn't imply technology like the present - for example we talk about the Sumerian civilization. It is really a question of how organized the society is.
Very software focused. In biotech, patent protection of composition of matter (and less so process) is important to ensure the ability to capture economic value of your research.

But keep in mind the safe harbor clause (Safe Harbor provision of 35 U.S.C. § 271(e)(10)) allows any other company/lab to use your compound/process "in support of submissions to the FDA". This is taken very broadly in the field to mean if you are pre-commercial you can basically use anything you want, no one will sue you because if you're starting-up, everything can be claimed to support an eventual filing. Plus, if you have no revenue a patent fight has no value to the other party.

Obviously every marketed drug has IP around it preventing generics until the patents expire. A lot of inventions that lead to commercial products are actually derived from academic institutions. The Bayh–Dole Act did absolute wonders for the US in terms of biotech innovation. Pre-Bayh-Dole, any research using federal grant money had to go through a Byzantine process to determine IP ownership with a lot typically residing with the US federal government. Post-Bayh-Dole, it simply stayed with the inventor/inventing institution. Some people now consider this bad because evil drug companies are "privatizing the gains", but without that economic payout, they wouldn't have invested to bring the invention to market to begin with.

You could argue it moved the large biopharma companies to become development/networking/marketing companies, which is a fair point, but it simply moved the innovation to universities and nimble start-ups--which is better anyway for actual disruption and more equitably spreading economic gain.
>Olive oil, on the other hand, is high in high-density lipoproteins (HDL).

Lipoproteins are the fat transport mechanism found in animals. Oil olive, like all vegan products, does not contain lipoproteins.
How long will that be, is that known?
There's no way for a satellite to orbit the Earth over geologic time scales.

Even geosynchronous and geostationary orbits degrade over time (though time scales extend to ten thousand years and longer).

Micrometeorites would shred any satellite to pieces and decay from thermal stress and radiation would basically turn satellites to dust over time (again - think millions of years).
I’m so happy this project is picking up the fork. Gitbook was a great project, but they really moved everything to their SaaS with artificial barriers to just using the software.

It was cool that they left cli around, but as abandonware.

I thought it strange that it was such a non open source behavior to only support their monthly service even though one of the main benefits I see in static site generators is the flexibility of hosting and cost.

I feel bad for them as it must be a hard business to compete with Bookdown and other projects.
Of course, other people complain their boss cannot handle the name "gimp" because it's unprofessional.

In any case, I've given you a solution. And, of course, it's not something you have to do on all the devices, you download Krita's portable zip file version, if using Windows, adapt the .lnk file one, and then roll out the update by creating a new Windows image with the modified version of Krita.

At least, that's how professional organization handle OS and application provisioning.
Adobe somehow hosts critical CSS assets for some adobe.com pages using their tracking domain(s), resulting in a broken page in Firefox due to tracking protection.

I think they do this to encourage people to turn off FF or other tracking protection. Instead they lost an enterprise license renewal as I was “encouraged” to look elsewhere.

If your CTR on ads drops for all advertisers on facebook. What can you do? How can you figure out of its just a technical glitch or someone purposely wrote bad code to create this situation where Facebook is benefiting at expense of every other advertiser..

Infact, Facebook can hire a residential IP service provider like Luminati and use bots to click their advertiser's landing pages in name of malware checks and bill them and later when caught say "ohh we made an error" then even your CTR or landing page tracking metrics are going to fail.

I come from adtech, so I know what is possible in this space and what my smart colleagues are capable of doing.
I would suggest considering many other books in addition to “the” book recommended by the author, such as Eloquent JavaScript. In fact, reading multiple books will offer multiple perspectives on the language, and result in a richer understanding.

I would also suggest having an actual project in mind while learning. It can be something very simple to start, such as creating the game Tic Tac Toe. But that will force you to apply what you are learning. In other words, try writing and maybe even rewriting the project based on what you learn.
These failure modes have been used to criticise JWT over the years. But all of these errors are of the same level as "don't concatenate input strings into SQL strings" or "don't store passwords in plain text". That these errors are made says much, but not about the technology, IMHO.
It's just awesome! I'm so tired of feed-like layouts, they are not for humans.
Meanwhile the SI refined its definitions further in the last few years, making it transferable to our possible future alien overlords from outer space.

I really cannot fathom how such an inconsistency as the disagreement over a unit that is nonstandard, weird and custom anyways could be allowed. The rest of the world got its act together roughly 200 years ago, admittedly with some leftovers, but those vanished over time...

I bought it this morning based on your suggestion and so far I really like it. Thanks!

Edit: Coincidently, the first chapters of this book play in June 2020. Computers are very expensive devices where there's always hardly any money left to do long operations on it and everybody always prints out screens on large paper rolls :-)
So basically you call the article bullshit and your second "source" reads - and I quote verbatim -

So much for your own credibility, champ.
> Certain types of mechanical shutters exhibit the same phenomenon at high speeds.

Pretty much all focal-plane shutters do it beyond 1/60 to 1/250 of a second (identical to the flash sync speed), because the finite movement speed of the upper and lower curtains would result in an uneven exposure otherwise.

The incomplete protein comes from one thing: grains are generally.low in lysine and legumes are generally low in metsomethingine (metionine?). Both are essential. Eating enough for both during a day will even out (the liver stores them) unless you are doing a shitload of exercise.

Anyway, you will have to eat really shit food to not get enough protein. I live in a country with among the world's highest recommended protein intake (Sweden, 15%E - but anything between 10 and 20 is within recommendations) which I reach without even trying.

The WHO and American lower limits are impossible to come down to unless you live on oil and rice or eat ultrashit food.

I love “I love NY” (can’t seem to type the heart character and not have it removed by HN). When I see a similar line with some other city’s name, I feel like it’s just a copy where someone couldn’t add something on their own.

The number of souvenirs and clothing sold with this should probably be in hundreds of millions, at the very least.
Looks great. You could add /r/popular (the default front page) to the dropdown, though it seems to work if I edit it into the URL.
Most of the poor countries you mention don't have an intentionally created underclass. The economic background and the tremendous intentional income/wealth inequality in the US adds a bit more complexity.

In most countries, you won't end up in jail because you make less than $X, the US penalizes being poor. The US jail population as a % of the world's total jailed population is a clear indicator.

Also its quite interesting that American whites commit crime at a higher rate than UK blacks. There is something systemic at work here.

It seems the few decades of gutting social safety nets compounded with the trend of shutting down schools to make funds available for policing and jail building created a pipeline directly to jail for the newly undereducated and poor. A pipeline with perverse incentives that helped corporations and the US government exploit almost free ($0.25/hr) domestic prison slave labor for weapons, defense, and general manufacturing.
But Internet has also centralized a lot after the 90s from the infrastructure side. With a modem it was a no-brainer to expose a service on the open internet, now with DSL Routers being standard it's a bit more difficult - of course this has good reasons also. So people would just try out various server software and run it, today only few people would do that. Even among the tech-savvy population, most would resort to SaaS. Especially P2P software had a hard time, nowadays popular P2P networks seem to be just there to do stuff that would be too risky otherwise instead of actually democratizing information. I mean in the 90s it was normal that people would build a homepage with content they like, now it has to have cutting edge design and be super entertaining for the visitor. So what happens is, only professional Content creators create content like before the internet. (I wouldn't count Twitter messages as content, that's barely enough space to voice a differentiated opinion...)

With the local news that's of course a thing, on the other hand my parents and other people of that generation used to usually read a local newspaper and a nation-wide magazine or newspaper. I don't think the group of people actively engaging in local politics has ever been really large. Not sure whether to count sharing political "artifacts" on Facebook should be considered actively participating in politics. It's just clicking one button.

It's only 3cm taller, the battery will last you a week and it has no distractions, oh and it's 34 quid.

More classic Nokia options here: https://www.nokia.com/phones/en_gb/classic-phones I've had a Nokia 208 for 7 years, I take it rock climbing all the time, it's been crushed and battered countless times and dropped from 60m - battery only lasts a few days now so time to get a new one (a new battery not a new phone).

These phones are great for sports because they are so rugged and they are cheap anyway so you can forget about them and focus on what you are doing. The stick phone form factor is also better for fitting into a pocket without restricting movement - I don't always want to take it on route but sometimes forget it's in my pocket.

> I wonder if this confusion of the pointee with the pointer is what makes this concept seem so difficult to those who didn't start with Asm

Possibly (I started with asm, so I can't speak with certainty) but it could also be because many modern programmers first learned Java or JavaScript or Python in which most names are references to object (thus effectively all variables are addresses). Their first languages do not have value semantics, so grasping the concept of value semantics applied to a reference itself (ie pointers) is a major stretch.
This otherwise good list omits the most pervasive mistake, which is not to use stateless JWTs for authentication.

At a cost of worse design, I am extremely satisfied with mdbook. For an example, check The Rust Book.
There are a few more advantages, especially when machining. There is a large system of standardized metric parts, e.g. washers, screws, etc. available on the cheap because they are needed everywhere. Whereas the US mess of screw sizes, denominations and threads produces a nonending headache of unavailability, high price and non-fitting but similar-looking parts.

Yes, the changeover will be ugly and involve redoing all your plans at some point. But after that you will see how much you are missing out...

SecureFlag CE is an OWASP project to host on-premises AppSec training platforms
The SecureFlag Community Edition is an open source training platform created for developers to learn and practice modern secure coding techniques through hands-on exercises.

The platform helps develop secure coding skills through real-world challenges to ensure knowledge acquired during the course can be confidently and continuously applied in the real world.

Exercises run in isolated Docker containers that are disposed when the exercise ends. The desktop comes with a pre-configured development environment, complete with the IDE and various tools that the candidate can use to solve the exercise. Environments are created on demand and can be accessed through a web browser, without the need to install additional software.

I've seen their slides before, and I was impressed by their engineering-oriented approach. The engineering obstacles to fusion are so great that (IMO) one should use them to drive the design, rather than taking a physics-oriented approach and worry about the engineering later.

I would grant that point if PHP's main focus weren't web applications. One would expect the language to bring everything you'd need to build a web application. (again: maybe that's just my perception of PHP but I don't think there are many other kinds of application, PHP is used for)

PlantUML has morphed into a two part tool.
Its original purpose was to visualise various forms of UML diagrams.

More recently it has utilised its underlying graphviz to create a more general 'graphviz on steroids' diagramming tool (referred to as the PlantUML standard library).

The original UML diagrams can be styled to look modern, but normally are shown in a default slightly old-fashioned and uninspiring visual style. Such a shame if that's your impression.

As mdaniel posted, just a refresh of the colour scheme can modernise the look of UML diagrams

https://real-world-plantuml.com/umls/4831648155697152

The second part covered by this hitchhikers guide shows a modern take on visualising component relationships.

Both parts allow visualisation as code, but otherwise have different purposes.

I wish we'd see more UML examples in a modern style.

(I'd also recommend MarkDeep for documentation. Includes these + markdown, math, doxygen integration and more)
Why is it okay to ship a new device with an operating system that is two versions old? Neither Windows, Mac, or iOS users have to worry about that.
I had an original Unihertz Jelly and the battery life was just miserable. At least you could swap them.

Scrolling through forums, I don't think they ever fixed that. Hopefully on the Jelly 2?

Currently on a Unihertz Atom. Battery life is better but it's sealed like an iphone.

The Atom starts on Android 8.1 but get regular updates and it's v9 now.

Maybe Palm plans the same thing?

It goes into the same category as criticizing C's memory safety. The errors do say a lot about the tech being prone of misuse, and that's not really a good thing.
Yeah, this kind of thing annoys me to no end when I scroll through these kind of debates in comment threads. I wonder if people who pose these hypotheticals about dividing lengths down would be surprised that tradesmen and carpenters in the rest of the world get on just fine, and don’t need a maths degree to work this kind of thing out!

A lot of the arguments though (and some of the most impassioned) mostly boil down to “I’m more familiar with this system so I assume it’s better” - for example, any time that people say that customary units are “more human scales” or “fractions are easier to understand than decimals” whatever. It actually makes basically no difference in practice, it’s just that growing up with one system or the other makes you a lot more familiar with it!
Well the fact that you need to 'choose' a cryptographic protocol out of the suite of ciphers reminds me of why the creator of WireGuard opted for no cryptographic agility and instead chose versioned protocols, unlike OpenVPN.

From the Wireguard paper [0]:

> 'Finally, WireGuard is cryptographically opinionated. It intentionally lacks cipher and protocol agility. If holes are found in the underlying primitives, all endpoints will be required to update. As shown by the continuing torrent of SSL/TLS vulnerabilities, cipher agility increases complexity monumentally.'

You need to make an accurate comparison though. It's like shutting down your servers, rewriting from scratch, and hoping that your customers will still be there for you when you've reached feature parity.

Is there a way to restrict encryption at a hardware level? The conditions where you would like to voluntarily encrypt data are usually quite rarefied. Allowing any sort of encryption activity on your system seems like a hazard these days.
The problem I was trying to solve is the difficulty/speed of finding places relying on 2D tech of maps and GPS.

For some scenarios (unmapped areas, indoors, congested environments, no address system) a gif makes finding a place much easier.

I think your point here is about processed vs whole foods? The same argument applies to any diet, it’s not specific to a vegan diet. Whether or not one type of junk food is marginally better than the other doesn’t matter. If you want to eat healthily then avoid all this crap, vegan or not.
Doomscrolling is slowly eroding your mental health
You should probably not rely on foods that contains a lot of iron-absorbtion-ingmhibiting things (spinach, parsley) to get enough iron. Beans are better in just about every way.

Parsley would have been a wonder food if not for all the oxalic acid (is that the correct english name?) and other anti-nutrients. Spinach is better, but not by that much. Beans and whole-grain grains are where it's at!
South Korea and Japan are definitely not "middle development countries".

Hi! I recently opened my quiz generation service to public. Would you try out the quiz AI assistant at https://QuizRecall.com and let me know what would you need to be added to make useful also for your use case?
In any larger workshop over here there is one toolchest usually marked in some bright and ugly color, all the tools marked in the same color, containing "Zollwerkzeug". That is, tools in inch sizes. You rarely need them, but on occasion you come across something from the other side of the pond where your 8mm wrench would just damage the head of your bolt. But often you can also get the job done with a monkey wrench.

However, this means that really changing over to metric, meaning also using international standards for tools, screws, bolts, wires, etc., needs buying new tools and material. I'm not sure how many metric tools there are in a typical US workshop, but I can imagine that they are not too common at the moment.
The deaths ATTRIBUTED to COVID-19. Not necessarily deaths FROM it. The difference is huge, as vast majority of people reported as died from COVID-19 were, in fact, seriously ill already, so the viral infection was a minor factor (or a last straw).

Considering that hospitals have financial incentives to attribute deaths to COVID-19 thanks to the government largesse, it is not surprising that all these ambiguous cases are reported as COVID-19 deaths now. For all other illnesses the standards for reporting are quite different.
