Orica plant was commenced in 1969 -- I wonder what distance the nearest residential housing was to the site at the time.

I can understand residents not wanting to be within a potential blast radius, but I don't know enough to guess at who'd be responsible for the cost of relocating a manufacturing plant if there was council approval to extend suburban zoning ever closer to the plant over the years.

I think there are limits to what you can express through pictographs, while this ideographic way of writing might be more versatile.

Though, the article states that there are about 2300 symbols. That seems very excessive, and if there's no way of interpreting without memorizing (would it then still be ideographic though?), it doesn't seem very useful to me.

The topic to look into is dioecy. Most plants have individuals with both male and female reproductive organs, but there are exceptions. Also, it’s worth noting that the terms “male” and “female” are used differently for plants than for animals.

This is about being able to use the language/framework you already know to compile to pure native binaries (like Rust, but with GC). It's a big deal since it makes C# viable in places where it isn't currently, like a lot of Go's use cases.

I had been away from C# for nearly 6 years, but was able to pick up Core in a couple of days. If anything, things have gotten simpler and there's fairly good cross platform support. What rapid changes are you referring to?
Just this week I wanted to spin up a minimalist ASP.NET page for "tyre-kicking" of new infra builds. You know, something that just coughs up a single page with some basic info, such as the regional options, time zone, current time, and the latency to the SQL Server. This checks that the infra guys did their job and that the AD accounts and firewall ports are in place.

I wanted to write 1 page with just some dynamic labels, that's it. Nothing fancy. No MVC. No dependency injection. No JavaScript frameworks. No CSS. Just one ASPX or CSHTML page.

Visual Studio 2019 no longer ships with a web project template that does that. Every single project type coughs up megabytes of crap and a bunch of scaffolding.

Would you mind telling us what the medical literature says about deaths from Vitamin D overdose?
Around how many people in total have died from taking too much Vitamin D?
I’m not sure if that’s true. I remember that at some point there were more than 2 systems, none were standards, and they were widely incompatible, I remember AMD for example: https://github.com/amdjs/amdjs-api/blob/master/AMD.md.

I cannot find the others though.
That makes a lot of sense in theory, but Pentium 4 HT was a real evidence disagreeing with it.

Netburst have had horrible IPC, so in theory HT should've brought big improvements, yet in practice it didn't bring significantly more relative performance improvement than HT implementations of later Intel cores with much better IPC.

Adding to that SMT in Zen cores have brings slightly better relative performance compared to Intel cores (and Zen doesn't have as terrible IPC as Netburst), I think SMT implementation is not as trivial as we thought and before and its implementation indeed matters.
True, I imagine that clang with ThinLTO might do it.

... because any wallet downstream of the tainted wallet in the transaction graph could be considered tainted as well. This would be a highly effective attack on Bitcoin as an illegal payment method - the onus would be on every Bitcoin user to ensure that they have provably done everything they could to avoid obtaining "illegal bitcoins".

Therefore, the person in Russia in your example would have an interest in not dealing with tainted coins, because they couldn't be sold for the same price anymore.

It would basically split Bitcoin into white (provably legit), grey (unsure) and black (illegal) coins.

Yes, this would probably also destroy Bitcoin, but that's a mechanism by which states could obtain extraterritorial power over what people do with Bitcoin.

Unlike gold other equities are actually expected to net a return and therefore it is possible to invest into them in the long run. With gold the only way you can get a return is through speculation which means you must sell it regularly. With other equities you can just sell them as needed.
This is why I believe there should be no downvote at all. Or there should be a way to see which posts are the most controversial instead of hiding them. When someone disagrees with an opinion and downvotes it - they bury it and in a way hide it from the world. This behaviour is what creates echo chambers where only the popular opinions are amplified even if they are wrong.

If you ever have to stay at home for a long period of time again, make sure you work out. It doesn't have to be a heavy or intensive workout. Anything with a medium intensity during 30-45 min is a game changer.

> The compatibility break with the .NET Framework also removed the biggest advantage I saw in C#

I'll be honest here. The migration from .NET Framework to .NET Core is a pain. I see why things were done the way they were done, but it's still a real pain.

That said: for green-field works NET Core is clearly superior.

> PowerShell Core is past version 7 but is still missing many modules, including some key Microsoft ones

Just like .NET Core's main mission was not to replace the entire .NET Framework, the same applies to PowerShell Core.

.NET Core was created to make developing .NET-based web/cloud-services easier, faster, using less space/resources at runtime, and to have a fully supported cross-platform story. And at that it has been a wild success.

Almost everything about .NET Core is better to work with than the traditional .NET Framework (at least for the workloads it was intended for), and I'm always depressed when I have to move back to work on the "old" stack.

In this regard PowerShell Core is (as I see it) not meant to fully replace regular PowerShell either, but to be a good platform to do your cross-platform dev-ops'y build and deployment scripts related to your .NET Core deliverables.

It may not be what you want it to be, but it has a clear mission, and it's delivering fairly well on that.

> Lastly, I got fed up with Microsoft releasing yet another half-baked GUI framework.

I think this applies to pretty much everyone, which is why they never catch on, and Microsoft inevitably trying to "solve" this by releasing yet another framework.

That said the MAUI-presentation on this year's Build looked pretty convincing. If I had time to spare and had some small projects/POCs I had to work on, I might had given it a spin.

Thanks to the 13th Amendment, this is not an exaggeration. Thanks to the war on drugs, hundreds of thousands are slaves that wouldn't be otherwise. Manufacturing your license plates, freezing your Big Macs, and picking up your litter by the side of the highway.

As someone who actually enjoys tinkering with these settings. I grew to love the controllers quite quickly. But it's exactly as you said.

Steam Controllers are not plug-and-play. They're really a niche thing.

I was able to set up a reasonable competetive setup for Metal Gear Online. I had the left pad for walking. Then set up the right one with extremely sensitive camera control, so I could turn around really quickly. But configured it in such a way that it slowed down a bit when I pressed down the aim button. After which I also enabled gyro controls for fine-aiming.

For Fallout 4 it was a more casual layout. But here I made the right trigger hipfire if you fully pressed it immediately. But a half-press would go into iron-sights first, while also enabling gyro aiming. This felt really intuitive for me.

A vitamin K deficiency with normal vitamin D levels would cause blood calcium levels to rise. Many people are deficient in vitamin K since it's mostly found in leafy greens and liver, no one's favourite foods. The difficulty is judging what is a normal vitamin D level by incidence of people with elevated calcium levels in the blood without having tested all of those people for vitamin K deficiency first.
"As an illustrative example, you might have 20% of workers working at 120% efficiency, 50% of workers working at 80% efficency, and 30% of workers working at 10% efficiency. This example comes out to about 67% productivity overall."

While I agree with your overall point, this is a terrible way of making it. Of course I can argue any position if I can just make up numbers to support it.
It probably depends on company culture, but I can definitely envision situations where the meeting "request" is less of an actual request and more of a "this meeting is scheduled whether you like it or not".
The article says "He writes that before the 1970s and ’80s, chefs were “anonymous workhorses,” in many cases not only unknown, but thought of as interchangeable." Yet Wikipedia lists many famous chefs that predate this, going back to the 14th century.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chefs

The author also says that "the power of the chef-auteur as an idea is fading," but it's not clear what data leads to that conclusion. The only evidence for it that I could find is the anecdote at the end where the author eats at a restaurant where the menu credits the entire staff. Is this a growing trend? It seems like an equally compelling argument to say that the era of movie stars is at a close because I saw some film credits the other day and they acknowledged everyone involved in the production.

C# has long supported it on UWP side, but now with .NET 5 there is an ongoing discussion if they will still support it or not.

The whole MDIL (Windows 8/8.1) and .NET Native (Windows 10) came from WinDev, not DevDiv, hence why it has its own idiosyncratics regarding .NET support.

Now with .NET 5, it seems they are gearing towards just a better NGEN, thus shipping a kind of AOT/JIT mixed mode image, which isn't being that well received and most likely the survey to feel the community.
