A quote from Terence McKenna, a renowned advocate for the responsible use of psychedelic plants:

“Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behaviour and information processing. They open you up to the possibility that everything you know is wrong."

The psychedelic experience can be much more intense to process and integrate afterward than the substances you mentioned.

I worked for a car mfg that had that on all their laptops. It was annoying and I’m 99% certain no one ever checked up on the alerts and instead was just logging in case there was an issue later.
Another reason why not to "wait for an update for Excel" is that one of the perks of Excel is it's very long-lived data formats. People may be using Excel 2003 to work with you on a file you created in Excel 2019. You have to go all the way back to Excel 2000 to lose the ability to work on modern documents.
> " To people calling, "why do they use Excel?" that's like asking "why must we be subjected to gravity?""

I respectfully disagree with this. Excel is fundamentally not suited to analysing *omics data. It's often the default program affiliated with a .csv filetype on people's computers, but trying to get an entire field of scientific research to rewrite itself based on its glorified bugs is...wrong, in my opinion.

If you see wrong things in the world, do you accept them as they are, or try -- however ineffectually -- to force change for the better? I for one bang the drum into the wind and try to get biochemists off it. I teach people to be very sceptical of excel in my stats courses, for example (aside from some showstopping bugs and downright dangerous defaults, its RNG is particularly crap).
> non-black people in those "black neighborhoods" are also paying the "racist" premium. It's not like non-black people are paying 10% less while living on the same block and purchasing the same insurance.

Yes, of course this is true, no scare quotes necessary. I don't see the article making any claims to the contrary either, so again, where is the dishonesty? To use your example, if there was an article claiming that men pay more for car insurance, would you call that dishonest?

The point is not that insurance companies are directly looking at people's race and charging them differently based on it. The point is that all of those covariate factors that make the insurance more expensive in Black neighborhoods are themselves the result of institutional racism, unless you think it's just coincidence that Black neighborhoods have higher crime rates, lower employment, etc.

It follows fairly directly that if predominantly Black neighborhoods pay more for insurance, then Black people pay more for insurance. Yes, if a white person moves into a Black neighborhood, they will also pay more for insurance; this is no less the result of institutional racism.
If you want real security, you minimize externalized trust. By running your own server you do not have to trust anyone but yourself. And if the server is your own, you don't even need e2ee because in the threat model against which e2ee is helpful the offender is server operator. Replace server operator with yourself, and you remove the need for e2ee.

Of course, if you want a cozy sense of being secure, instead of real security, you say, 'I use end-to-end encryption which I was told makes reading my messages impossible'. With iMessages you can't really verify if your messages are not being sniffed (unlike Signal, or XMPP, I must add), and we now have proven Apple DOES have a potential way to read your messages if they really want it. But you TRUST them not to read your messages. So why bother with E2EE at all, if you already trust them not to spy on you?

(Also, how come people who religiously insist on using an always-on E2EE for their chats are totally fine with Gmail which stores every mail totally unencrypted?)
That neon blue glow really hits the spot!
While I get being touchy about such a term, I think bias is the proper term here. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bias_(statistics)
Bias here means reliably off in a particular direction, not discriminatory.

“That statistical estimator has a bias” means that you can expect it to often produce an over estimate (for example).

Have you tried IntelliJ-Rust? I am curious how it differs from Goland (I've never used it.) I personally use VS: Code with rust-analyzer, which is the successor of the RLS, and much better.

structopt will give you a go-arg-like experience. clap 3 is going to adopt it, in my understanding, so that reduces the number of packages.
If I understand it, they looked at 3 pulse ox meters. The expensive one from the company that was sponsoring the study read about one point (out of 100) lower on blacks which is inaccurate but not outrageous.

One of the off-brand meters was completely wrong (e.g. dangerous) for blacks, the other one was in between.

> But seriously, the use case of disallowing USB sticks on devices is unnecessary hard to configure.

This will not help against hardware that exploits bugs in the USB stack of the operating system.

Assuming the threat model is police or secret service seizing one's server, it is feasible that the attackers also have knowledge of the running OS (IIRC one can distinguish between Windows, Linux and xBSD by simply looking at TCP fingerprints) and thus can use a targeted exploit.
Actually, there are no similar projects that I can tell of. MakeCode, the "one that comes with the micro:bit", as you say, is not a live language and only works for a couple of boards. It's not even a language, it's a façade for an underlying text language.

To sum up what's different about MicroBlocks:

* It is blocks based.

* It is live. That means you can change scripts in real time while they're running. You can see the result of running any block in real time. You don't have to wait for any compilation/upload cycles.

* It is autonomous. You can disconnect the board at any point, and the program will keep running in it.

* It is parallel. You can run multiple tasks at the same time.

* It is portable. It runs in several boards thanks to our VM approach.

There was no language that did all these, so we made our own :)

Excel is no longer motivated by the original intention of a spreadsheet, and now caters to the lowest common denominator, a piece of graph paper. As such MS has shifted focus from doing calculation to text and graphics layout tool.

The higher bilateral gray matter volumes (GMV) in olfactory cortices, hippocampi, insulas, left Rolandic operculum would have long-term consequences which are indeed what it means: "long-term" i.e. too short to see physical manifestations of the impact in this study. But these changes in the brain are in itself horrifying given that the symptoms only manifest as respiratory and so on.
I have a Lenovo M93P Tiny which came with a chassis intrusion switch installed. It seems you can have it block startup/require a password when the case is opened and notify some central admin. I don’t know what happens if you open the case while it’s running, though.

I’m not sure if it’s something they offer on current models, or to individuals at all (I bought it used from a corporate IT asset liquidator so it was likely originally purchased as part of a bulk deal). Regardless it makes a great little Linux box!
Thank you for sharing this.

I think that, you were clear headed - and that was the difference. My personal experience/anecdote with suicide (not me, but I was involved in the recovery), the person were not able to think clearly, even if their problems were fixable and _they knew_ that the problems were _fixable_ but required too much effort, just wanted it to end.
I've always been surprised that autorun wasn't re-enabled when app stores / code signing was introduced. If Microsoft or Apple is willing to sign an installer saying that it's something safe to install, isn't that proof enough to let it run when you insert the USB key it's on?

I know this isn't really very relevant for the specific combination of installers and physical media any more, since it's rare for anyone to be trying to install something off a CD/DVD/USB these days (other than a new OS, of course.)

But I could see the use case for physical media doing something other than running an installer (e.g. DRMed disks launching the equivalent of a FUSE server to mount the "rest" of the disk); or for non-physical media (e.g. macOS DMG disk images) being able to autorun their embedded installer. Either way, the code signing that the platforms are already doing would be enough to make these safe, no?
Similar thing here. I actually ended up finding that I downright preferred Windows, and I honestly find it a lot more stable and reliable in day to day use.
> Interesting project, I'm sure this is useful for people at risk.

Could you expound on what this means? In the USA/UK, people most "at risk" of police kicking down the door seizing their laptops/computers while they are still running are child pornographers.

Perhaps this can be used "for good" under oppressive regimes (i.e. if you are a dissenting journalist) but then I think you won't get a fair trial anyway and having a kill switch just means more prison.
At 10 mph wind, sails generate about 0.256 pounds of force per square foot (according to random website found via google). Therefore your several ton cargo ship gets next to nothing from sails.
Sorry, I skipped some steps in my calculation.

The chemical reaction is indeed CH4 + 2 O2 -> CO2 + 2 H2O. So, for each 16 grams of CH4 you get 64 grams of O2, that's a stoichiometric mass ratio of 1:4.

The fuel ratio for the Raptor engine is 22:78, according to Elon Musk's tweet. So, for each 100 g of propellant mixture you get 19.5 g of CH4 to burn using 78 g of O2 and you are left with 2.5 g unburned CH4.

I simply neglected the H2O resultant from the reaction because, while H2O is a very potent greenhouse gas, it has a fast cycle in nature (rain, etc). Also, I have no idea how to account for it as a greenhouse gas.

When looking at the numbers, you may want to take consideration the cultural acceptability of suicide. There are cultures where suicide is not viewed the same way, and therefore it may be elevated. Certain philosophies view it as an acceptable decision if someone has suffered greatly and doesn’t wish to anymore (off the top of my head, some stoic philosophers have spoken about it). I haven’t done my research on the topic, but isn’t it somewhat acceptable to kill yourself in Japan in certain circumstances? The taboo factor in other countries likely drives the numbers down as many people won’t entertain the idea because it is “bad”.

The point is, I’m not sure “some cultures suck” is the only part of the equation. We also need to consider how that culture educated their society about suicide.
that makes sense, the higher the fall; the harder the impact. Related to this, I think the social nets in poorer countries are stronger so the fall isn't as rough.

All that said, this is inequality not income.
If you live in a society that has stopped you from experiencing most things that suck. Think boredom, Hunger, insecurity. Is it any surprise that when something that sucks that we can't prevent - rejection, death, loss - happens it hits these people worse than it would people who haven't had the preventable sucks taken away?
As a 4x founder myself (serial, not asynchronous), I don't think the concept of a "portfolio" entrepreneur is necessarily bad. However, if Mr. X is directly blocking progress then that is a problem. If you aren't being paid, that is also a bit worrisome. If he has a good track record, I am surprised he doesn't have seed money already to fund him at the idea stage. Another red flag would be if you and Mr. Y didn't really know or interact with Mr. X previously. Usually, successful entrepreneurs have fairly good network of resources and often times work with people they might have worked with before. Just saying they red flags and you may want to be cautious about how successful he may appear vs reality.

Is it possible you can bring someone else on that can do his role?

Does he have a vesting cliff for his own equity? How is the company formed regarding voting rights? Does the company own the IP? If you and Mr. Y effectively have 60% voting to his 40%, and he is vesting, you should be able to remove him and use his un-vested equity to bring in someone else.

If you don't have a company formed with proper stock/voting/vesting/ip assignments in place, then I would immediately stop until this is done. You have very little legal recourse. This is were co-founders get into huge legal problems later on. This should be a non-starter. You should immediately make claims on any IP you have committed if there is no agreement in place.

The biggest misconception is that ideas are worth something. They really are worthless. Execution is everything. Good ideas fail all the time. When two companies with the same idea compete, the one that executes better, mostly will win.

It is a huge risk to quit your day job to work on a project like this full-time. My last recommendation is to search internally for why you joined this team? Maybe it was exciting to be doing your own startup, or maybe you felt it would be easy with Mr. X to get funding. But startups are incredibly hard and 9/10 fail. So you should make sure that you honestly believe that the product/service is valuable and that this team can iterate it to market.

One of the biggest problems of a kitchen is having food go bad. Nightly we have to throw away food because we don’t have another purpose for it. When serving a singular cuisine it is tough to find ways to create new dishes that fit into the menu. Ghost kitchens become interesting because assuming you’re running 3-10 “restaurants” out of the space, the overlap in ingredients becomes large which allows us to reuse and repurpose ingredients easily. This plus the volume of orders allows us again to reduce overhead costs of purchasing. Often times, it takes the same amount of effort to cook for 50 covers vs 500 but clearly the latter yields more profit.
I am curious too. These data are critical to policymakers today. Without knowing what excess deaths from suicide and overdose look like stratified by age, they can't understand the risk and reward of covid-19 lockdowns. And even if they suspect as I do that the number of life years lost to suicide and overdose caused by lockdowns bmay outweigh the number 'saved' by lockdowns, it will be difficult to persuade anyone of this without data.

Not forcing HHS and CDC to prioritize collection of these statistics was a serious mistake.

I had an Evolve 80 headset. It's of the corded kind. The control unit on the cord went crazy whenever I started a meeting over any video conference tool. Support insisted that none of the devices I had supplied enough power for it (500 mA).

I gave up on the headset and passed it along to the next unfortunate soul. After months of being told my devices were at fault and some months of radio silence I got an email stating the firmware bug causing the issues has been fixed.

Long story short it looks like the support is indeed trying to wear you down.
