For those interested in the pulse rate extraction, there is actually a branch of biomedical engineering/computer science called "remote photoplethysmography" (rPPG).

I worked on it a bit at some point, it does work pretty well assuming you don't move that much and the light isn't too bad. As you can imagine, it's more difficult to estimate on non-white faces, particularly very dark skin tones. All the algorithms (at least until 2016) differ in the way of combining the RGB signals into a pulse signal by making different assumptions.

If you are interested more, Philips in the Netherlands are particularly active in this research domain, one of the main application being non-contact pulse estimation in hospitals for example.
That's very close! But something that's intuitive in hindsight might still have required some hard work in development, rather than "just" a brilliant, novel idea.

Photolithography, for example, is intuitive, and far simpler as a technique for constructing circuit boards than what came before it; but etching circuits using light projected onto light-activated chemicals isn't one of these "the world was ready for it, someone just needed to do it" ideas. Someone thought of it, then needed to do a whole lot of work to get it to happen, finding the right chemicals, experimenting with projection technologies, etc. After the fact, the idea of photolithography is extremely intuitive; but it wasn't a better-term-for-"obvious in retrospect" idea.

Why are you conflating google with all of marketing and TV ads etc? That's like claimingn that airlines and sealines are the same market. Google's competitors are not billboards, they are the (now extinct) other online ad marketplaces. Their problem is that they control the search and display ad marketplace absolutely, they can ask advertisers to pay $100, pay the publisher $1 and nobody will know if they are being scammed because there is no competiting marketplace to compare.

I also don't see what will be lost if google loses its grip on one part of the equation. Don't you want competition?
Of all the possible things that could happen to me, I am very confident that only a small subset could result, so it is pretty well defined. Nasal demons, for instance, are not on the menu.
That’s an extremely definitive point of view. What if the lawyers agree to give the VPN provider 10% of the proceeds?
This sort of thing happens a lot when you first set up a free plan. Some part of it turns out to cost more money than you expected, and it’s a small but growing segment. If you’re going to have to pull back in it eventually, why wait? Waiting might just annoy twice as many people when you inevitably have to introduce stricter limits later.
Yeah, just moving your SSH daemon from port 22 to some other port number alone can help with that.

I'm primary Emacs user with LSP mode setup. But sometimes, Emacs performance just triggers my frustration enough to use VsCode.

To me, VSCode is much better experience from performance and LSP integration perspective. Everything works pretty much as you would expect. I use `ccls` and `goto-symbol-stack` for better tag browsing -- which gives pretty close experience to Emacs "M-." or Vim's "C-[" and go back shortcuts.

I don't use any CMake extension. You can basically create tasks and assign one of them as build. I just use those task to run the CMake commands, or my own scripts which sync and compile code remotely.

There are some other awesome plugins (I use Git ones), which are incredibly good.

If you work on Windows, I hear integration with Linux Subsystem is excellent, and there is some other features for general remote development that I often try.

Often, eventually after a day or two of use, I would still get back to Emacs, because what I absolutely miss is years of conditioning and customizability of Emacs. The keybindings are exactly how I want (and they make sense), window splits and workspaces (are in my opinion superior to VSCode), things popup and close when I need them and keybindings around them are straightforward.

Bottom line is, if you are hardcore Vim/Emacs user --

(1) you'd probably appreciate the convenience, excellent performance with LSP and bigger files, things working out of box, font sizes/colors being consistent, and nicer UI around code browsing.
(2) At the same time you'd miss certain essential things that are heavily engrained into you. Lot of things will be good, but not good enough -- specifically related to keybindings/window splitting/buffer management.
For the record, I think op is probably speculating a bit. That said, I'm not sure how you can be so sure op's not losing money unless you have intimate knowledge of the cap table and the deal.

> Then again, if you have a large group of servers, you should have those ports blocked to the world and only allow access through a VPN and/or jump boxes.

Even with just one server it can make sense to use a VPN.

In my case I am running Wireguard on my server, and I use that VPN among other things for being able to remote in to my grandfather’s computer when he needs help. Since we are both behind NAT at our respective homes, a VPN was needed and I chose to use Wireguard. Wireguard is super easy to set up, and works on FreeBSD (my server and also my desktop run this), macOS (my laptop and my grandfather’s desktop run this), iOS (my phone) and Linux (currently I don’t run Linux but I have for many years and will certainly run it again on some machines again). I don’t use Windows, almost haven’t for a decade with a few small exceptions, but I think Wireguard is available for Windows also.

So anyway, I decided back when I set up Wireguard hey, now that all my machines and my phone is on this VPN, there’s really no reason to expose SSH to the internet anymore. So ever since then I have had sshd listen only on the VPN. It works great.
I’m sad to hear it. A lot of people are denied entry to the US for their entire lifetimes; I am sad for all of them.

>but, to be factual, anti-semitism in the UK Labour Party has been a thing since the 20th century

Anti semitism is a thing in society at large. It's bigger than it is in society in the Conservative Party. It's smaller than it is in society at large in the Labour party, but not entirely non-existent.

The reason it became such an "issue" with Corbyn was about Israel attempting to shield itself from Corbyn's criticism (e.g. land expansion, abuse of palestinians, highly racist policies) and because others found it useful to jump on Israel's bandwagon. It's not because it was common. It wasn't.

Tom Watson (deputy leader, never a corbyn fan) was one of those people.

He even went as far as visiting Isaac Herzog in Israel with a contingent of MPs (all of whom loathed Corbyn) to "apologize" for the "anti semitism problem" in the Labour party: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/nov/15/tom-watson-...

Isaac Herzog, then leader of the Israeli Labour party, is famous for declaring that "race mixing is a tragedy" and refusing to apologize for it. This is who the concerned "anti racists" allied themselves with - an Israeli obsessed with racial purity: https://www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/isaac-herzogs-remarks-...

The hypocrisy and pearl clutching on this issue was absolutely staggering - especially by the guardian. The fact that something like this can be used to take down an honest politician in this way gives us a terrifying glimpse into the future.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. All you example proves is that Google and Bing follow different metrics for relevance -- Google's being more relevant for someone looking for the former subreddit that was widely discussed in other media outlets, Bing's being more relevant for someone looking for the current incarnation i.e. dedicated Trump supporters. The idea that there is some conspiracy within Google to promote Trump's opponents needs more proof than that.
I don't think you realize how quickly and universally the people of Pasco county (or really, a majority of most US counties) will praise the sheriff for protecting good people from methheads, criminals, and white trash. I can almost hear the responses: "If they didn't want to get killed, they should have gotten a job, taken their meds, and respected the police."

The general population can be extremely cruel and heartless if the consequences are hidden from them. And they specifically reward people that hide the costs and consequences of these actions.
I think you and the parent comment both make great points.

I definitely get the point about the additional load to maintain a deep standard library but, as someone from a heavy Python background who has only begun to dabble in Rust, it felt a little off to have to reach for a crate just to do a regex match on a string.
Again: those are medical doses, given either very temporarily or in weekly/monthly doses.

2k definitely ha san effect on a daily basis. To really know, there are two things you can do:

1. Get a vitamin d test. Fairly cheap online

2. Use the dminder app to track estimated D over time from supplements and sun exposure

I don’t think I was clear enough in my post: 60,000 is not a daily dose! Higher than 4000 IU daily over a long period can lead to excess, according to Deva Boone, a doctor who was posting here and wrote some articles on this topic.

60,000 is something I’ve read about where 1. A doctor wants to correct a large deficiency, and 2. Judges large, infrequent doses are best. (My guess would be for adherence)

Do not, do not. Do not take anything anywhere in that range on your own. Stick to sub 4,000 for a daily doses, and ideally get a blood test.
So damn sad. Such an inspiration as a fellow anarchist (in the sense he meant by it). Rest in peace my friend.

A similar situation occurred in Rochester NY in March. Police called on a guy who was acting out, possibly due to having ingested PCP earlier. He was obeying the officers commands and had been handcuffed, but was acting erratically by spitting at them. So they put a "spit hood" over his head, then held him to the ground until he passed out and his heart stopped. Nothing about how the police responded is humane.

It's all on video:

I’m not sure your point?

Any HTTP/ALPN request first begins with DNS, so if you’re trying to compare those, they all share the same base issue. In theory, this can be mitigated by DNSSEC, but that’s not relevant when comparing these validation methods.

However, both the HTTP and ALPN methods only demonstrate control over a single port (or .well-known resource), while the DNS method demonstrates the full ability to alter any/all names.
Investment scam is all over the place in recent times and due to greediness people fall victim daily to bogus promises. May i tell you that out of 100% of people or companies advertising investment, just like 2% can guarantee the outcome. The rest are mere scorn artists who just want to take your money. Thread with caution!

This is also a signal to all regulatory authorities to buckle up. You must know that if cryptocurrency is prohibited in your jurisdiction you do not have business with it. The reason being that when there is a problem or abuse, the investor lacks government protection.

If you sense that you are being defrauded by an investment company there are few steps listed below which could help you to recover them if you have all your proof of investment and conversation history. The following are the process:

Firstly, if cryptocurrency is regulated in your jurisdiction like in the United States, File your complaint with the SEC. Why file with the SEC? Some of these companies are registered and it is the duty of the SEC to regulate them. Filing will make the SEC investigate and bring down the company. This is usually not the case as we have experienced in our quest to recover money for victims of fraud. Virtually all the companies are unregistered and are usually operated by fake individuals with fake identities. So reporting to the SEC may not really do justice.

File a report with any Law enforcement agency in your jurisdiction, like the FBI in the US. The essence of this is for investigation but this usually is not an easy one since most of them operate with fake identities and FBI’s investigation is usually very slow. Making it that before the investigations concluded the scorn would have emptied the wallet.

The next is that if the amount lost is what you can bear, please bear it and invest no more.

The last option is that you should try using virtual asset recovery companies. However, i must strongly advise you to thread with caution because most of these investment companies now pose to be recovery companies and they are out there to steal from you. This is owing to our experience in the recovery industry.

Some people have been defrauded twice because they went to the wrong place to seek help. Do not be desperate. When you send your complaint to contact@activebonorum.com the firm will review your claim to ensure that you really invested with these companies and if the same turns out to be successful, the firm would proceed from there.

Finally, I must advise you to inform those around you that you have been defrauded due to the trauma that comes with this. Also to recover all, log on to www.activebonorum.com

You may also be blocked for non I/O reasons. This is a typical problem in user interfaces. Code designed to deal with 10 items suddenly has to deal with 10,000, and that takes seconds. During this period, your "async" code is stalled. Typical example - text edit box implemented in Javascript trying to deal with a large block of text.

Is it? $15-30/head sounds like a lot, but these are employees you're paying 30k+ to in salary alone, if the addition of slack makes them 1% more efficient per month, that blows past the $15/head. Forget the tech companies with employees that easily crest 200-300k in costs after insurance and other benefits.

There's a lot of audits and regulation, in addition to tighter security, that Slack needs to prove to its enterprise customers that they can trust their employees blasting confidential information on it every day of every year.
They probably haven’t yet because of backwards compatibility. I’m certain there’s plenty of companies that take advantage of the quirks unique to MSVC++ and would be quite upset if it was just replaced with GCC or LLVM.
That's such a stupid example though. I'd assume the sky was looking in such a way that it could be interpreted as either. A nice sunset gradient perhaps? Averaging the color spectrum values or hypothetically mixing colors is ridiculous.

If you have reason to assume atleast some measure of good faith, I think it's reasonable to try to cancel out biases between sources to get closer to the truth.
It's "Drama"
I'm not completely paranoid about lead exposure. I used to hand-set lead type and donated my last case of type to the program where I learned letterpress about ten years ago. But it seems ridiculous that things like toys, artificial Christmas trees and conveyances for food and drink would still have lead in the twenty-first century.
In my experience, it is certainly effective. I take 2000IU fairly regularly since last few years and it certainly helped to keep vitamin D level slight above minimum required.
To be clear, it is not that bad, which is the point. Many cities protested without these issues. Most protesters are nonviolent. Most cops are not directly evil (murder, assault, intimidation).

> I've seen calls on this site for immediate antitrust law cases against google, and now that the Trump DOJ is doing it, immediately, there's a rush to defend Google.

Well, that's my actual position. "The last temptation is the greatest treason: to do the right deed for the wrong reason."

I think it's important to enforce the laws we have fairly. However, going after political opponents because they are political opponents, and retroactively figuring out what laws you can use against them, is very different from enforcing the laws fairly. I think we should be going after many more companies than we do on antitrust grounds (and I think society would be better if we had even more stringent antitrust laws). Going after a single company and saying "Hmmm, antitrust?" does not actually succeed at maintaining the rule of law.

(I do, for what it's worth, agree that "political" is not an insult. It's a descriptor, and it applies to just about anything involving the government or the shape of society. In this case, I think it happens to be a descriptor for something bad. It is entirely good and proper for politics to influence what laws we have; it is improper for politics to influence against whom we choose to enforce them.)

I think that's what GP was saying about the US -- while window units are very common, split systems are relatively rare. But anyway I think most of the article wasn't specific to a split system A/C unit, or even air conditioners in general.
I JUST TRIED THIS NO UPFRONT PAYMENT !!!!! NO UPFRONT PAYMENT I made a deposit of $10,000 into this broker on 1st December, then I got a call from the account manager telling me about my account and the bonuses I could get if I put in more money. He was really good at convincing (maybe he brainwashed me ) I later put $86,000 in total.Then I sent all of my verification documents such as proof of address, ID and Bank card details (I sent without CVV) and Declaration form . Also I received lots of emails from them about verification and activation and etc. During the first 3 days which my account was funded and was ready to start; they called me many times to re-invest and increase my amount and I refused because they got too pushy about it. Ifigured something was wrong when I requested for a withdrawal and was told I had to reach a deposit target before I can make withdrawals.So I couldn't trust them as they changed their word and I asked the adviser I want to close my account as my account is verified and it's ready. I already told him I can't put more money in and now I changed my mind and I want to withdraw my money and close my account.I send lots of email, chat, request, text, call and etc and ask them to call me and explain but nobody answers and replies to me even through email (Used to be emailed straight away) Now I want to withdraw all of my money but I can't go through my account. THEY NEVER CAME BACK TO ME. TEL, ADDRESS AND COMPANY AND ALL ARE SCAM.Until I was introduced to a recovery company that helped me out contact@activebonorum.com

I haven't been tested for Vitamin D deficiency. But... and I'm very easily wrong here, but... wouldn't taking a multi vitamin make this testing unnecessary for the most part?

I mean, don't get me wrong, it's always best to test, but diminishing returns and all, wouldn't most people most of the time be fine with just taking one?
The math works out if you presume that 20% or more of that 1.5% is converted into a paying customer. If I was using GitLab that much and could pay $20 to support GitLab but wasn't already a paid subscriber, I probably would think about it. (I'm thinking about it now, and I don't even use GitLab.)
I feel like we're at a crossroads:
