Not parent, but I've tried a few different earplugs for sleeping, and settled on Hearos Ultimate Softness Series [1]. I buy them in a box of 100, which lasts for ages (I generally get 3 days out of a pair).

Other ones I tried tended to cause pain after a day or two. It did take a couple of days to get used to having them in, but now I really miss them if I don't have any with me.

Regarding alarms/emergencies, I always wake up to my phone alarm, and I find that I'm generally able to hear 'past' them for things I'd usually be on the alert for.

In the results right below where your search terms are, there's a line of light gray text that starts with All News Images - at the end click on Tools. Then change All Results to Verbatim.

It eliminates all the recommendations, and the majority of the guesses about context, relevance, etc. Combine that with judicious use of quotes and it's still possible to have decent error message/keyword searches.

Never thought I would pine for Altavista.
The fire has been raging for 2 days now and the forward mast has collapsed. I'd be absolutely shocked if that ship sailed again.

Steel really warps when you heat it up. Each compartment needs to be water tight. Just fixing the doorways alone would be a monumental task. Not to mention all the cabling and equipment that needs to be replaced. The amount of labor it will take to fix the steel will probably more than just laying down an entire new ship.
I tried forestry and found the static site development very fragmented. There are:

1. git service providers
2. SSGs
3. CMSs
4. Static site hosting providers

If one is targeting end users who just want to write, it's quite hard to beat WordPress since the experience is completely streamlined.
When I was deployed aboard Naval vessels in 2000 a hole was blown in the side of a ship in our group, the USS Cole.

My real life includes attacks on US naval vessels that kill people and destroy equipment.
Great news.
Why not just snapshot for another few years? Seriously though, would an RC have killed anyone?

I don't understand the point of this comment. No one is saying that 3D printing will make forging obsolete. There's always a balance of trade offs. It's up to the designer/engineer to decide how something should be made. Developing more options, and better understanding those options is part of engineering progress. It may be good to temper expectations (no pun intended) to avoid overhype, but at the same time I think it's also good to let people's imaginations run wild because that's where creative developments come from.

For example, I'm sure people will come up with ways to have more control over grain boundary and other material properties of the 3D printed material through the use of heated chambers, annealing, new alloys created for specific processes, etc.
More like the Koch brothers. Inherited a vast company with tremendous financial and political resources and made them even vaster and more deeply rooted.
This is laughably wrong. Upanishads are part of the Vedas in context and as part of a larger contextual work..then expounded separately by several authors...no one knows who or how many people wrote the Vedas.

There is literally no proof either way. Just like no one can prove the authorship of vedas or Upanishads, there is no way to prove that they are ‘entirely distinct works of literature’.

Upanishads are not fungible and are married to specific related Veda. What you say doesn’t even make basic sense.

For example: Brihadaranyaka Upanishad is related to Yajur Veda and so it’s distinctly expounding upon Shukla YajurVeda. It makes no sense with Rig or Atharva or Sama Veda. So it is part of Yajur Veda.

The Vedas were orally transmitted as the language of the Brahmins and then written down much much later.

You can’t date or confer authorship on Vedas or Upanishads, but the commentaries and exposition are codified wrt the four vedas and each Upanishads is assigned to one of the four.

There is literally no basis for you to assert that ‘they are distinct works of literature’.

However: Without Vedas, Upanishads are not stand alone works. Vedas, otoh are relevant and understood without the Upanishads.
That’s effectively what Wittgenstein was saying in the Tractatus, only to turn around and repudiate all of it in the Philosophical Investigations—at the end of the day, logical systems based on the manipulations of symbols are one thing while the messy reality of being human and living is quite another.
MythBusters host Grant Imahara has died, aged 49
Which county might that be? Only Los Angeles has more than a few hundred death due to COVID total.

In Santa Clara county still about 20 times as many people die every day due to unrelated causes than due to COVID. That makes it hard to justify the economic damage, which is devastating to those who lost their job and are waiting for unemployment benefits for months now.
I liked the old linus better.
If someone wants to quote me for a full reverse engineering of those drivers then I'd be interested in (crowd)funding it. But in terms of risks to worry about, it's pretty low down on the list IMO.
My understanding is that outside of names or ways of describing yourself, others and actions, in other languages you’d tend to disassociate the gender of a word from the word’s usage. As in, a word is not problematic because it has a masculine gender, but rather in its usage and meaning if it excludes women/minorities/doesn’t use inclusive language. Perhaps a similar word in English would be “perfume” which is perhaps similar to a feminine-gendered word. The male version would be “cologne”. Neither word is especially problematic — the concept, scent products, doesn’t particularly exclude either gender, though related social uses and norms might.

That said, language definitely changes viewpoints. Things don’t always map 1-to-1 between languages, and a lot of cultures have different ideas about when and how to make these kinds of corrections. Sometimes language is set centrally, sometimes slang and memes propagate new terminology or reference current events. Words change the way culture changes, or so it’s been my experience...

I understand that, but why is a 23-year old ship considered old? USS Nimitz is nearing 50 years old. Wikipedia [1] lists a bunch of ships built in the 70s and 80s. USS Bonhomme Richard appears to be newer than half the ships there.

Hi,
I am 31 years old right now and i have just had experience in manufacturing as of now. i want to get into coding and i have learnt the python basics. i just wanted to ask you guys what would be the best way to do this? are coding bootcamps like brainstaion, hackeryou, lighthouse labs worth it as they claim to help find jobs too? any advice would be really helpful. Thank You!
You don't have to pay to use XCode to run something on iPad.
I have been on the admissions committee at a university and literally chose students to award scholarships to.

You can be too poor to be eligible for a visa (which goes for any country I'm aware of), there is a govt requirement to be able to support yourself. Otherwise I find it odd that schools would tell you anything about why you weren't accepted.

As for "no government funded student loans", I said there were no taxpayer-funded student need-based aid.

Graduate school includes Master's programs which the blog post was also talking about, and which only rarely come with teaching or research assistantships (those are primarily for supporting phd students). But international students are just as eligible for those as anyone else. It's much more common for MS students to get a scholarship than an assistantship.

For phd students, the primary sources of funding is overwhelmingly research grants the faculty member themselves get from the NSF and NIH. These grants almost never require the supported students to have permanent residency. Many programs (e.g. phd in electrical and mechanical engineering and many schools) would cease to exist if that were a requirement.
Yes.

Feel free to pay some attention to the small bubbles that form around like-minded people in their twitter echo-chamber but it is doing frustrating amount of damage to community and individuals when lazy journalist just take an twitter outrage/trends as an estimate of "what's in people's mind".

Checking twitter for general consensus, opinions or trending topic is like checking tabloid stand at the gas-station for it. Vast majority of people don't give a single crap about the private affairs of actors nor the new hottest diet/cars/fashion that tabloids makes you believe.

> No! You should get that degree if you want to design your own scheme like you're trying to do now. If you don't want to bother, then just use the standard algorithms like everybody else!

It's not that easy. It's not like there's a universal library that is super easy and safe to use and prevents you from messing up. Crypto algorithms are like Legos or plumbing. All the parts are there, but it's a big scattered mess and it's up to you to glue them together safely, avoid obsolete pieces, etc. And that requires education and experience, many hours of it.

Even in my crank scheme I was doing the same - gluing together different crypto algorithms in a suboptimal way.
Not good. If you want high performance analog now there are basically two big players: ADI and TI. On Semi has a bit.

I guess inevitable. The high-performance business is getting smaller in volume and consolidation allows prices to go up.
http://jungleworks.com/ - Check this company out (specifically their “Logistics Cloud”), many of their offerings I think fit the mold to a certain extent, in that they provide the technology for onDemand/last-mile’ish services and tooling.

No affiliation, just stumbled upon them when I was kicking around a startup idea of my own.
We need a decentralized search just like DNS is a central service, but not centrally managed (OK, mostly not centrally managed).

How about each web site indexing their own contents and then there being a mechanism for your client to crawl the indexes, just like a DNS resolver will query servers until it finds the answer it wants. My iPhone is leaps and bounds more powerful than desktops of a decade ago - there is zero reason to pool power in data centers. Indeed it would be impractical for Google to replicate the power of all the clients worldwide in a data center.
I moved from SF to rural Appalachia* for a year around 2012. It was actually pretty nice. People were very friendly. Rent for a cute 2bd house on half an acre, walking distance from downtown, was $425/mo. Kroger had all the same things you find in supermarkets everywhere. Great climbing was an hour away in the Red River Gorge. Hiking and outdoor activities everywhere. I pick banjo now.

IMHO you should re-evaluate your priors.

I'm no ISP network engineer, but at a guess I'd probably look at splitting up customers into some sort of logical grouping (say per state or something) where they all sit behind the same CGNAT infra anyway, and give each of those their own 10/8.

Same here. From Puerto Rico, too. I thought about sending my AirPods Pro to my relative living in FL, but with COVID-19 shipping delays I didn't want to risk missing the extremely narrow shipping window to send back the broken AirPods. They were all "Yep, this sounds like a problem! Let me set up a repair" until I sent my Puerto Rico address. Terrible support for non US-mainlanders.
PyPI's architecture isn't meaningfully different than npm's. Npm has seen more high profile incidents because:

1. Packages tend to be smaller, and the transitive dependency trees of projects corresponding larger. This means there are more single points of failure.

2. More people are using it.

Python, and for that matter most language package ecosystems, have the same problems as js, but many of them have gotten away with it for a bit longer due to (lack of) scale.
> One fifth is the most dangerous, angry, reactive, poisonous gas we know.

Obviously you're utilizing hyperbole here, but I'm assuming you're referring to oxygen's oxidative potential (really "standard reduction potential"), but other gases have significantly higher reduction potentials than oxygen. Fluorine and Chlorine cause bigger, hotter fires at conditions that would generally be considered "non-flammable" if oxygen were involved instead. They also corrode/rust things faster than oxygen does.

Charts like [0] are misleading because they list the standard reduction potential of the monoatomic forms, which isn't realistic when most of these form diatomic gases (e.g. Cl2, O2, etc).

Both fluorine and chlorine gases are more oxidative than oxygen. Chlorine has electron affinity of -2.4 eV and while O2 is -0.4 eV.

Their blog is pretty interesting about a lot of things like this. There's a lot of Good Thinking™ through Signal.

And some super weird stuff like relying on Intel SGX for contact info... that they don't need to store, and don't let you opt out of. I basically trust them to actually do what they say they're doing, but I don't see the point of needing that trust in the first place (and there's no way to validate that it's happening, so it could change in the future and no user could tell).
I was recently surprised to discover that Foxtel still exists. Even living in Australia it had been years since I had heard or seen anything to do with the company.

Personally, I dont feel like Foxtel is a problem so much as the business model of locking up a show within a paid streaming service. There are so many of them. If a show or movie isnt on the streaming services I already have access to I immediately just discard the idea of ever watching it. Its unlikely to even be worth the bother to find a way to watch it.

This is 98% of San Francisco's problem. They decided they didn't want high rises. Less room = less supply = prices going up.

Its idiotic to get mad at tech and other companies for providing jobs. I can't believe how utterly incompetent so called "leaders" are with their either ignorance in basic economics or malfeasance in knowing but using the strife to push their political agenda instead of solving problems.
I sympathize with what you're saying, but any broad survey of an incredibly complex subject like this is necessarily going to need to simplify some aspects of it. I definitely agree with you that the notion of the mind as a physical construct is a fascinating topic, but someone could easily write something just as long as the original article and barely scratch the surface.

Are there concrete ways you feel the article could be improved to address your points? (I'm asking out of genuine interest since you seem to know a lot about the subject.) Alternately, do you have other sources you'd recommend as a preferable introduction to the topic?

As a lay person with limited knowledge of these traditions, I didn't get the sense that the author was using axioms and derivations in a strict mathematical sense, but rather as "these are some foundational bits of epistemology in this tradition which informed further developments," for whatever that's worth.
Sometimes, but not frequently. I'll write abstract classes and inherit from those occasionally.

The only times in recent memory where I have inherited a concrete class from another concrete class was to add functionality to an existing program without starting a massive refactor.
> AWS is on its way down, when was the last time they came out with something exciting?

1. AWS is still vastly more popular and with way more market adoption than another other provider (by a massive margin)

2. Who cares about exciting? I want stability, with decent support, huge community and great tooling.

I think it's a case of YMMV. GCP works for some, likewise with Azure. AWS is just a good workhorse and a solid choice for just about any system.

Although I've always found it weird we have this 'us vs them' mentality with the cloud provider we end up choosing.
That is one legal route, but it takes time, and immigration being the reason for a hasty greencard marriage that the couple wasn't already naturally for, is never a good thing for the relationship and mental health of the couple.

It does make me wonder though why there isn't a "long-term relationship visa" for people who haven't reached marriage yet but want to be together and be eligible to work, and require some evidence that the two have been together stably for some period of time. In many cases one party is a US citizen and it would be in the best interest of the mental health of that US citizen to allow his/her partner to be together with them, and from the government perspective would thus be indirectly in the best interest of the country.
> Right now, she can't legally drive (!!!)

Not to be flippant, but since you emphasised the severity of that predicament so much: In a country with decent public transport (ie most countries) that wouldn’t be a problem. I’ve only ever owned a car in the USA; no need elsewhere.
While that’s a fair assessment, (even philosophers that idolized and refined Foucault’s methods (see Ian Hacking) point out his loose handling of historical fact) that’s not really why people read Foucault and to ignore the entire edifice of his thought because of such mistakes would be the very definition of missing the point.

In my opinion, it is not so much the concrete historical subjects of Focualt’s work that are valuable, but rather his approach at developing a mode of critique founded on historicity and his reminding us in a very general and strong sense that our present is determined by a complex of historical events that don’t actually fit into the neat and tidy bundled up narratives histories present (since this is usually the objective of writing history) but that things are far less coherent and far more like structural emergent phenomenon than they are the effects some historical will (a la Hegel) or the interests of “great men”. Not to mention he does what any great philosopher should do which is make us recognize the concepts we take for granted thanks to years of idioms and cliches being drilled into our heads are not so simple after all (his analysis of power). I think it is the task of every philosopher worth salt to de-hypostatize concepts.

This is why critiques that take issue with Foucault for “forgetting the subject” are taken more seriously and have more ground to stand on than any shallow dismissals on account of a few factual flubs.
