It also kills off all the smaller players in mobile advertising, of which there are many (mostly focused on gaming, because that's what makes money on mobile).
Small trucks may cut enough emissions by reducing road-wear. If everyone switched from large trucks to an even larger amount of small trucks it's possible the problem is made worse.

Why the focus on small trucks as if they're a panacea?

Good books to read on the subject:

1) Guy Debord, Society of the Spectacle

2) Daniel Boorstin, The Image: A Guide to Pseudo-Events in America

3) Jacques Elull, Propaganda: The Formation of Men's Attitudes
I think you're probably right. If the subject's photograph is unflattering the content of the article skews negative. For example, just look at any article where the person has their mouth open and is making the 'Ch' or the 'Ooo' sound - it's always negative.
Nuclear power plants were designed with this in mind. It would take a substantially larger earthquake to damage a nuclear power plant and cause it to leak than a commercial pool. Such a comparison is in bad faith and disingenuous.
Indeed. It always bugged me that languages like Rust chose snake_case for lowercase identifier, but CamelCase for the rest. Surely it should be Camel_Case.
It looks like Apple's advertising targeting isn't using the same info that they're trying to withhold from third parties though. I actually have it off on my device so I can't see what the "View Ad Targeting Information" says (if I turn it back on, it says I have to wait 24 hours before it has the info to show me), but from the description it does show, it sounds like the ad target uses "account information and interactions with Apple services" for serving ads. Which is to say, this is information Apple already has, and all you're saying is "please don't use that info for serving ads". It does not sound like it reduces the information Apple has (which makes sense, any PII not necessary for running Apple's services is not sent to Apple except after undergoing differential privacy).

Compare this with third-party advertising, where the use of IDFA does explicitly hand information to third parties that they otherwise wouldn't have. For example, the Facebook SDK is integrated into a bazillion different apps, so Facebook can track a single user across all of these different apps even if the user doesn't use Facebook login (or if they use Facebook login for a single one of these apps, Facebook can then associate the usage of all the other apps with that same login too).

The two are not remotely equivalent.
Surface level coal deposits are available across much of the globe, but let’s ignore that.

Agriculture can go a long way with animals, wood, and stone. Extracting energy from wind and rivers is easily attainable from that basis. At which point we would have serious energy to work with. Hydro electric dams provide 6.1% of the total U.S. electricity. That is plenty of energy to kick start industrial manufacturing and get to wide spread solar power.

The next civilization may be extracting most of it’s materials from our cities, but that’s an advantage if anything.
Sure, it's safer for reactors to tolerate flooding, if indeed these reactors actually do tolerate flooding. Definitely that would be a better design in flood/tsunami-prone areas. No design (from history, especially no reactor design) is perfect. A set of smaller reactors that were not co-located would be more tolerant of site-specific vulnerabilities in their design.

Pale complexion / skin can also be a symptom of anemia, and certain types of anemia are implicated/related to vitamin D deficiency.

In such cases, both conditions may required supplementation to correct.

So, fair to say that it can get complicated.
So the litter acts as a trapping agent by desiccating the waste. Only occasionally (usually when we're lazy about cleaning) does the litter stink.

The smells the cat cares about are its pheromones/scent. Cats are highly smell-oriented (they don't taste food as much as smell it), so venting all that cat-smell outside could cause the cat to find other places to mark.
The number of people studied is very small. It certainly isn't evidence based enough for a report on Cochrane.
The US is transforming itself into a hellhole because part of the country (represented mostly by republicans) cannot accept democracy and want to transform the country into (or maintain it as, you decide) a white supremacy state.
So happy I went down the Vue-route from the beginning. Could I learn and understand hooks really well if I wanted to? Sure. But with Vue lifecycle hooks - and with the upcoming Vue 3 composition API - I don't have to overthink anything. The API is intuitive, readable, and a pleasure to work with.

I'm sure there are counterpoints - Vue doesn't teach the right mental model about component lifecycles, or something to that effect. But I don't care if the Vue abstraction is too simplistic - in fact, that's what I like about it.
You don't have to pick one. I write my projects in vim and keep the IDE open for when I want to refactor/debug. I'm not against using the IDE mind you, I sometimes refactor then keep on typing in the IDE. But I find myself naturally drifting back to vim when I'm just writing code.

(I'm also a firm believer in getting familiar with the default keybindings for any program, so I don't use any vim emulation in an IDE. There's value in learning a set of shortcuts that are usable everywhere)
L-Arginine Alpha Ketoglutarate (AAKG) is advertised as a Nitric Oxide increasing agent to improve results of exercise on muscles, improve protein synthesis generally, and growth hormone secretion. All of these assertions are rather vague and have at best limited scientific support, but it is considered a diet supplement and is known to be safe even at high doses so there is little regulation that applies.
Huh, I don't know if I know one person who would honestly answer that question with a yes.
Women who painted the watches and other things with radium to make them glow in the dark became known as "radium girls."

They were told it was safe, so some even intentionally painted their teeth.
My personal favorite example to get some perspective is from the book Days of Rage. During the 1970s domestic bombings were a daily occurrence, and at the peak there were over 2000 a year. Even the massive amount of violence in modern day Chicago is nothing in comparison to what was happening as recently as the 90s.
Tons of anecdotal reports in this group:

I don't know how your comment, although interesting and with worthwhile links (thanks, by the way), relates to mine. I'd not mentioned his "thinking differently", and neither did I suggest that he was "different and also correct". (Nor did I mention his work "Debt".)

I liked his writing; for its style and because it made me think. I like that. It doesn't imply total agreement or fanaticism, and neither does it imply hostility or disagreement.

I would offer, from your first link, part of a comment lifted from its comment thread (even if I might dispute the commenter's use of the word "tiny"):

... We can all pick over tiny details in books and engage in hermeneutic readings…. It’s not hard.…. [W]hat’s going to be remembered, David’s book with its intellectually revolutionary message, one that has inspired so many young economists that I meet or DeLong’s pedantic complaints about ambiguous meanings and contentious issues.… Who wins in the contest for etiquette? I don’t know. But who wins the intellectual argument? Again, let history decide. But I’m thinking Graeber.
> Sounds good. Those close to us are the most likely to have news that has actual significance to us. And are probably the most trustworthy.

So third-hand information from my InfoWars-reading brother and workplace rumors (or even worse, official workplace corporate communications)?
In what way are they not components? They have identity, state, can draw output, and accept user input.

What's your definition of component?
You are leaving out a very important piece of detail. The reason he was sentenced to death is that he was convicted of murdering someone during the protest. You can argue that he is not the murderer and it was pinned on him. You might be even right. But it is undeniable that someone was murdered in the protest, and that his sentence was because he was convicted of his murder. Had there not been a dead body on the ground, he would not have received a death sentence.
This is a problem with a lot of science reporting. Things get filtered through so many reports that it is tough to know what they mean anymore. The 10% number in your report references another report which references this report [1].

Here is part of the abstract:

>The incidence of viral myocarditis was studied prospectively at the Central Military Hospital 1 in Finland in connection with an A1 virus influenza epidemic in Jan. 1978. Of 104 conscripts taken consecutively to hospital because of a sudden respiratory infection, 41 had serologically confirmed influenza A, 37 were serologically negative, while in 26 it was not possible to carry out complete virological analyses. Six of the serologically confirmed influenza patients had acute myocarditis on the basis of serial electrocardiographic ST segment and/or T wave changes, unresponsive to beta-blockade. The incidence of the influenza A myocarditis was thus 9% of the 67 verified and suspected cases of influenza taken together.

So 6 people of the 67 people who went to a single Finnish Hospital in 1978 with influenza had myocarditis. Through a game of telephone that becomes "myocardial involvement in seasonal influenza infection has been reported in up to 10% of cases" which clearly isn't the conclusion of the original study. The original sample is tiny and it is already measuring from a population of people who were sick enough to go to the hospital. 30-35% would be a hugely alarming number, especially among 18-23 year old Division 1 athletes. It would be difficult to find a healthier population of people.

It does. The long-lived wastes can be recycled into fuel in breeder reactors.
Look, this stuff is not easy to measure, at all.

It's even harder when the two largest platforms (i.e Goog and FB) won't co-operate (for potentially legitimate privacy reasons).

On the other hand, I can assure you that for most niche brands/services (i.e. the ones that spend money on digital advertising), spending $1m dollars on CPM ads on everyone in your audience, versus spending $1mn dollars on optimised advertising will have wildly different impacts on your bottom line.

Source: did a lot of ads measurement analysis over the past few years.
Do you have some online labs you can recommend?
I said that enemy was defined as someone that is at war with the US. John Brown attacked the US government, so it isn't treason under the section of aiding and abetting an enemy, but under war against the US. Same for the Fries Rebellion, same for Mary Surratt.

Economic warfare, whatever that means, against the US, is not illegal, and making it illegal is unconstitutional due to the strong protections for private property.
Given the general cost disease affecting large construction projects, I think that massive reactors are an unviable proposition in western countries at this point. While the reactor core designs seem to be templatized, the projects to build them are not, and so there is huge inefficiency. E.g. see https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/31/climate/nuclear-power-pro....

If NuScale can build hundreds or thousands of these small reactors, they should be able to perfect a turnkey installation playbook that would hopefully reduce costs significantly, and perhaps more importantly, reduce variance on project spend/timelines. I think an unpredictable total cost of ownership is one of the things hurting nuclear projects.

The big question in my mind is whether they can deploy enough of these to get to that scale, given that there's a fairly universal NIMBYism against nuclear power, even where this would be displacing CO2-emitting sources.
There's no research being done on materials to safely contain molten radioactive salt, that research could be dangerous, pretty much only superpowers would have the resources to do the research.

That article is terrible. It's anecdotal, a biased sample from a group of people who self-identify as "long-haulers".
If you conduct a survey of a group of anti-vaccination activists, I'm sure that a high percentage will tell you that vaccines gave their child autism.

Moreover, this:

"A quarter of respondents in the Body Politic survey have tested negative, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have COVID-19."

Okay. I guess it doesn't mean that, but it means that you should be skeptical of the claims of causality.
Since it’s dirt cheap and basically impossible to take too much of, just skip the tests and take supplements preemptively.
Requiring ssh keys, disabling password auth, and using ssh bastion hosts is my preferred approach.
At 6'1" BMI seems to say I should be between 140lbs and 185 lbs. I'm currently 165 lbs and feel pretty skinny -- I can't imagine being healthy at 140 lbs! The 185 seems about right -- I've been close to 180 lbs and felt like I could lose a few.
urine mostly. the poop dries up pretty quick. but urine scent sticks around. my downstairs neighbour is bad at clean-up routine, you can smell it on the hallway outside of the apartment…
Hasura is a gql server too. I can’t say how it’s different from prisma, but it works by running as a frontend process to your Postgres dB. You issue gql, it converts to sql and then back to gql on the way out.

Some of the things it does differently though. They declare access permissions in the dB (Hasura tables, managed through their api) and they work those into the queries. They do this by building a json object with any of your variables in and then reference those within the query. This allows for a neat trick where they can run the same query for different clients by starting with multiple rows (one per client) containing their respective variables. This is particularly great for subscriptions. They can poll the dB, to grab all data for all connected clients in a single hit, and then if anything has changed, they can notify the external clients about it.
Hmm, seems DeLong might have some sort of animus: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17164707
Let me spell it out...domain squatters, in the business of buying up large numbers of domains (1000's of them), having well oiled business models and websites to try and fleece you out of an extortionate sum of money. The domains they're selling having no other use than to squat on them for profit from their sale.

I don't mean Johnny Internet bloke who acquired a few domains over the years and tries to punt them, I mean the parasitic businesses set up to profit from squatting. Surely I can't be any clearer?

Yes, my signing bonus is spread out over the first 4 years, so my TC will not go down until at least year 5, by that point I'd expect promotions/bonuses to cover the gap, or more likely I'll have moved on to a different company (nothing against msft, just not trying to stay in one place for too long)
Should add "2013"
That's my cat :)

Yes on all these points. Although I never had to resort to use spray bottles or hissing to enforce the rules.

Use their name often (they love that). Also surprisingly sniffing things is everything to them. When playing do not let them use their nails (Just saying ouch and immediately stop playing is enough to point out you do not approve).

My cat will tap my hands when playing, but rarely use his nails, only by accident.

Make sure that there are multiple spots in the house where they can sharpen their nails. A single scratching pole is probably not sufficient.
They seem pretty equivalent to me. You have a site or service send usage information to an ad network and the ad network returns an ad to show. The only difference here is that in the case of Apple they own both the service and the ad network.
Wow. How do they design them to withstand a strike from a 747? That seems really difficult.
Vaseline/uranium glass is cool looking. I have a few display pieces.

Another source of radioactive antiques are things made of jadeite.

safe bet that anything older then 40 years old, glass or glass-like, and florescent is probably doped with something unsafe -- but they still make wonderful trophies.

Sadly my military USSR watch with radium painted arms has faded away and no longer glows. The machined trefoil on the back lid of it is still pretty cool, though.

Also, the article mentions it briefly, but radiation is one of the things to worry about least when using vintage ceramic goods. Those glazes are jam-packed with metals that are well known to be carcinogenic now-a-days.

What will really happen - apps won't work without accepting tracking. So technically users will be given a choice, and in practice there will be none. Just like now - "Oh, you don't want to give us your contacts, sms, location and all photos? Fine, here is an app with every function disabled. You want to actually use the app? Give us permissions."
I have taken to using the current events portal, perhaps once a week: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Current_events

The once-per-month approach is an interesting one, which I would imagine removes even more of the lingering "urgency" to keep up with the news treadmill. How long have you been doing it?
so the easiest, biggest, and most blatant antitrust target out of your own examples is just a political play?
The feature that sold me GitLab was the ability to run your own runners. It's basically 10x (source needed) cheaper than other hosted CI/CD services. Most basic setup is like 3 commands.
Those that adopt an independent stance are often much more agreeable to get along with.

After all, they aren't usually the ones interjecting political nonsense into discussions every chance they get.
Yeah, I'd want to see a mention of port-knocking in the README, indicating that the author was familiar with this technique, and the known critiques of it, and why they think this method (or port-knocking in general?) withstands it. Cause it's definitely in the vicinity.

With no mention, it makes me wonder if the author is familiar with the history of this approach, which is not a good sign.

And yeah, I'm skeptical. Is this new, uncommon/unvetted, and somewhat complex "access" app just another place for potential vulnerabilities that give someone the keys to the kingdom?
I would be careful about using that stated outdoor-only (ie, feral) cat lifespan for an indoor/outdoor cat, though the dangers are real. Ours is currently mostly indoor only (until we get all the cat-toxic plants in our yard removed) but we have neighbors and friends with indoor/outdoor cats that are definitely older than 10 years. Mitigate them with reflective collars and nextdoor or other neighborhood alert system to know when coyotes are around.

An indoor only cat never really grows up psychologically, you're always its ever-present mommy. I'm not sure I want that for my kitten.
Wow, that is amazing, thanks
... except that that's most definitely not the defining characteristic, and the defining characteristic is rather that the process isn't part of a login session, which ironically on modern operating systems with all of the one-way trapdoors that now exist one cannot reach by forking.

Thinking that forking makes a dæmon is much the same error as thinking that su drops privileges, it conflates what happend to be a mechanism from years ago with the actual purpose, totally missing that things have changed since (long since, decades ago in fact).
> They are not free, if you need to buy a phone to use them.

If you don't have an iPhone/ iPad/ Mac, how else would Apple's privacy/ tracking policies apply to you?

We're talking about advertising and apps on iOS, those apps are absolutely free (and ad free) on any devices under discussion here. Otherwise, please feel free to ask about any other specific app on any other platform, because in almost all cases there is a free solution without advertising.

The idea that the world needs to run on advertising is nonsense. Likewise that developers/ end users somehow "need" advertising.
The reason I'm distracted is because what I'm doing sucks and doesn't actually matter, and deep down I know it's not worth the effort. But, in life you have to do lots and lots and lots of things you really don't want to do. That doesn't seem to go away. I know people who don't mind it, and that's fine they're just built that way or they're comfortable medicating to get what they want.

I've personally never been distracted on a dirt bike riding through deep sand, or two pitches up on a trad climb, building something with my hands, dealing with a medical emergency, or diving through kelp fields. But, sitting at a desk job staring down 200 emails and dealing with whatever new bullshit upper management has decided we should be freaked out about that doesn't really have a solution, and, well, the brain tries to wander out the back door. Pretty sure that's a reasonable reaction for my brain. Would I really want the kind of brain that was perfectly happy doing my bullshit job? Naw, I have to drag it kicking and screaming and I wouldn't want it any other way.

This doesn't count for real ADHD. I've had friends that had legit ADHD, and, uh, I wouldn't want to be 2 pitches up on a trad climb with them because they can manage to wander off mentally even in the face of death. It's pretty spectacular. Those people, however didn't select into desk jobs, they went into firefighting and emergency medicine, and special forces and stuff that holds their attention by necessity, and spent every ounce of their free time running, on a bicycle, doing pullups, in crossfit or something to burn off energy.
Facebook’s big ad business on mobile is advertising to install apps. That’s also Apple’s ad business on mobile (ads shown on Apple News, and in the App Store itself). For Facebook to show attribution of ad conversions, they must do tracking “across apps” (from their app where the ad was clicked, to the advertiser’s app). For Apple to do the same attribution, they can call it “interactions with Apple services”, because the purchase is done through the App Store. In that sense, both are going after the same user actions but different language can be used to describe them.
