I think the actual genetic factors for lactose intolerance are very rare. It probably has more to do with gut flora and consumption.

I am slightly intolerant and have symptoms if I stuff myself with raw milk. Other than that it is no problem. I have a friend with the genetic condition and even he drinks milk. He does get problem quickly, but not if he drinks coffee with some milk or yogurt.

I think all people develop an intolerance with age naturally, but people that consume much milk will have that process slowed down. I think the genetic factors can just accelerate the process that is responsible to induce intolerance.
In some ways it does:

People are a lot more conscious of putting pictures of people's faces online. Many people avoid putting any pictures of faces on social media accounts. People censor other's faces in pictures, or even their own children's.

While your average person might be more privacy conscious in this way, there seems to be a general feeling of "trust large institutions". They seem to collect as much information as anywhere else.

The reason is fairly simple; to get to the moon, you have to intercept the moon and then slow down below escape velocity, if you want low orbit or surface landing, you need to break a lot and get a circular orbit first, possible with a tilt in case your landing spot is up north or south.

To Mars, you do not have to circularize as much as at that distance, the transfer orbit isn't that much more elliptic compared to the moon and you also get to aerobreak to the surface, which saves a few tons of fuel.
If neurons that fire together wire together. Can we assume there's a shared subprocess and this is just a type of compression?

Lots of "small towns" have social life especially university towns.

Also, yes, a simple life means not to live like an American expat lol. You can have a social life without spending lots of money if you socialize with "like minded" people who also don't want to waste money. You can have friends over for dinner at home with a few beers from the supermarket, play cards or boardgames or video games, soccer or basketball outside, have a BBQ, watch a movie at home, etc.

But it's not like you'd have an American expat-like luxury life in the alternative scenario of staying in Eastern Europe either. The point is, by keeping down your lifestyle you can multiply your savings and escape the cycle of poverty and be able to afford a home in a few years, if you go back to your home country and can support your relatives back home in the meantime. This is a great deal for a lot of people even without the fancy expat-like money-burning lifestyle.

Seems like a very wrong conclusion, like managers trying to measure programmer productivity by counting lines of code produced.

I would say speed of typing and amount of code produced have no relationship to the quality of the programmer. Of cause there might be exceptions if people was trying to type with one finger at a time and other wierd things but above basic typing skills I cant see how it matters.

Yes. Presumably this is what the sleep timer is for, though of course you must remember to set it before you drift off. I imagine you could design a feature where every x_interval you check to see if the user is awake and require a user action to continue playing, but then how do you make it so this isn't annoying during normal use?

Ask HN: Is macOS ignoring your date and time update settings
In the interest of reducing my telemetry footprint, I set my laptop (High Sierra) to not autoupdate the time from apple servers. I've checked using the command 'sudo systemsetup -getusingnetworktime' -> Off.

However, using netted and pinhole, I still see timed trying to update the time from apple servers?

Where's that privacy I'm constantly reminded of? Anyone else facing this? Looks like some people were having this issue upwards of 2 years ago via a web search.
The temperature is going to highly depend on how you measure.

Theoretically, the gasses are extremely hot. But the pressure is so low that it doesn't matter.

The temperature of your thermometer will greatly depend on what it is attached to and whether it is in the sunlight or not.

Let's look at that chair analogy, you are presuming that someone can look at a finished chair and say it's a good chair, and the carpenter who built it is probably good. But in order to do that evaluation, you need to spend time examining the chair. And you don't have any guarantee that the chair was actually made by the person presenting it to you. Maybe someone else helped them build it, or they built it using step by step instructions they found online. My issue is that the evaluation can take a lot of time, and if you are not familiar with the project, it makes it really difficult to get anything useful.

If your hiring process always requires github code, then the chance of people faking it, or presenting code that isn't theirs is going to increase. And if you are looking at it for a project a candidate can discuss, you can do the same thing by choosing something from their resume.

In my opinion, it just doesn't add that much and will wind up taking up a lot of time. You would also need to decide when in the process you look at the projects. Doing a proper eval would still likely take hours for a small handful of candidates, so you wouldn't want to do it until a person was well down the interview path. And at that point is it really adding much more than you already know?

Well, I was once a power user of vim, but nowadays I'm happy to use whatever editor my favourite IDE offers. It may not offer all the vi features, but it has what I need, and has more features specifically tuned for the language I'm using. (I'm a big fan of ctrl+/ to comment out selected lines.)

I'm no John Carmack, though.
Understood, how about saying, from long time ago, even before or from BCE era. The historical literature (not mythological) from last 1000-1500 years all mention various dairy products & milk.

The mythological part was only about the Cow as mother part.

The buffalo milk, dog cats kittens part is from my own experience in 1990s from there.

Sorry but again, this is not the USA, financial services are very regulated in China (similarly as in Europe), they are forced to provide all information in a very clear and understandable way and structure their products simply.

There were no regulatory failures nor predatory plays, just bad personal decisions.

It's possible to earn far more than 60-70k a year in Germany as a SWE. In my city, Munich, total cash compensation packages range from 85-110k Euros per year for 5-10 years of experience. The base salary trends to on the lower end, but there can be significant bonuses (company bonus, August vacation bonus, and Christmas bonus. For example st BMW, each of these are typically a month's extra salary). In addition, if your position is unionized, it's possible for you to accrue substantial overtime to further increase annual compensation.
Its state dependent of where the LLC is registered, as not all states have those requirements

Its state dependent on whether the state you are physically in has the resources to enforce foreign LLC registration (hint: none do, with California being a big maybe)

Its state dependent on whether enforcement has any real consequences, such as whether there is any retroactive punishment or not (example: New York State actually gives retroactive protections for your foreign LLC even after you are sued in court and form a domestic LLC as required to have a better case, so the only consequence there is having to register once you get sued which costs a little money, no consequence for the property and this doesn't address a bill of sale for a car)

So, what happens when you get pulled over? Shrug, have all the papers? Point is that you can transfer any property this way by transferring the business that owns it with nobody knowing what the business actually owns.

I bumped the memory limit from 256MB to 1GB. 2GB is the maximum on cloudrun. You pay a combination of CPU/Memory per request obviously. Beyond that, it scales by firing up more containers as your request load increases to a default maximum of 1000 (we set it at 2).

Obviously don't use this if you have a lot of cpu/memory requirements but otherwise this should be fine for a well crafted stateless server.

Startup is fine with both ktor and spring-boot but obviously takes a bit of time. I noticed there's startup overhead if your container gets shut down because there is no traffic. In that case, it takes around 30 seconds for the first request to go through. That includes everything from booting the container and then starting the process. I imagine simply pinging the server regularly should keep it running. Alternatively, you can configure a minimum amount of servers.
I believe Minidisc was also the medium of choice in "Strange Days", a pretty good and still very relevant movie that gets mentioned rarely for some reason.

Actually, I'd argue that Elixir is to Erlang, as C++ is to C.
Before I'd found Elixir, I had never touched Ruby, but had written some Erlang.

Joe Armstrong himself was quoted as saying Elixir was some "good shit" (may he rest in peace. Super smart and super funny is a rare combination).
I haven't done a release with Elixir or Phoenix yet and the documentation about it is quite confusing. There are many different ways but I have no idea which one to choose.

Why should I deploy with release?

I had exactly the same desire. It’s crazy how locked down the minidisc ecosystem was though.

I remember playing with the Sony software to put tracks on my minidisc player, encoding then with AAC to get better compression. The thing felt great to use, much better than early MP3 players (the USB thumb drive style ones) but they were superior in nearly every way that mattered. (You could store files on them, more tracks, more battery life).

Anyway. That was a nostalgia trip.

It really depends. an LCD resin printer prints a single layer at once, but it prints much smaller layers than an FDM printer (resulting in better quality).
So for something small like a minifigure FDM will be faster, but for something big (especially if it has lots of small features) resin is faster usually.
And resin prints are always more detailed.
Fundamentally, advertisers just want good ad<->user alignment and the zeitgeist is to accomplish this with invasive tracking. However, it needn't (I think) necessarily be this way. What if, instead, we looked at the material on the page and said, "This is a blog post about Linux. Let's put our advertisements about sysadmin books/seminars here." Or provide the content creator with a library of ads that they can choose from (they will typically be incentivized to select the most effective ads by performance-based compensation). Maybe prioritize the sorting of those ads against keywords in the content.

Essentially, as opposed to profiling the user, profile the content. And give content creators more control over the user experience to discourage sleazy ads and encourage ads creators actually want on their site.

There's some optimism wrapped into this, so I look forward to someone popping my optimism bubble.

Occams razor. The cultural habit of feeding milk to kids is more likely to be vestige of a culture trying to provide sufficient nutrition for its young, just as every culture thinks it’s healthy to provide its young with its staple. If it wasn’t a good idea, cultures that provided milk to its young would not thrive.

Your argument seems dangerously analogous to anti vaccination conspiracy theories.

The fermentation process involves bacteria consuming the lactose in the milk. This makes the milk products easier to digest for people who are lactose intolerant
Audible is really bad at this. If I set a timer for 15 minutes, and am still awake, I press play (since it pauses). But then it plays without having set a new timer. So to not have it play for hours while I sleep, I then have to take out my phone, look at the bright display, and set a new timer for 15 minutes.

Why cannot pressing play in this instance be like a reverse snooze??
> I think the actual genetic factors for lactose intolerance are very rare. It probably has more to do with gut flora and consumption.

Not really, lactose is basically converted straight into glucose by lactase, and if you don't produce lactase the lactose is going to be digested by a variety of bacteria and turned into a whole host of products (some of them usable by the body) but mostly gas. There isn't really a way to avoid that, even though gut flora can be more or less efficient and allow non-lactase-producers to mostly digest milk, it's never as efficient as using lactase.

> I think all people develop an intolerance with age naturally

No, it's a well-researched thing, some populations of humans keep producing lactase after their childhood and some don't. It's not related to the milk consumption of an individual, either.
Even that situation, you can still use await inside Task.Run, it should be useful than nothing.
