>Shitty life experiences, and almost every environmental input, will affect chemicals in our brain and body.

I think that is a key point many people fail to see. Our present moment (including our thoughts and beliefs in the present moment) determine what chemicals get released in the brain.

Calling something a chemical disorder is overlooking correlation is not causation. (That does not imply pills can not be helpful and should not be considered.)

Did you end up finding a cure on your end? What was it?
+1 to CLion. Vim is great for what it is-- if I need to make a small edit or even work on C code it does the job well and is very fast and efficient. But at the end of the day it's not a full blown IDE and as such is missing a graphical debugger and profiler, good configuration for interactively running unit tests, and complex refactoring tools.

CLion is pretty much the best C++ IDE I've found by a mile. Eclipse is so slow and terrible I won't even consider it. Visual Studio is amazing but Windows only and really heavyweight. VSCode, Atom, etc. aren't really "proper" IDEs. Then there's open source contenders like Jucipp which while very fast do lack a lot of the niceties of their paid competitors.

My only gripe with CLion is that it's CMake only. This limits its usefulness for Bazel or Autotools projects.
Congrats, Dan! :)
Zapatos is amazing. I'd definitely use it if I were writing Node backends, I think its design is wonderful.

Also, I'm impressed by how beautiful and interactive your docs are. How did you do that? The show imports button, the embedded monaco modal.. Did you just code that up yourself just for these docs, or is this "just" some nice documentation template that I'm not aware of? Either way, very nice!

> This is not a strong signal. The adjusted odds ratio is 0.03 (95% CI: 0.003 - 0.25)

Are you for real? Smallest effect in the 95% CI is a 4x reduction in ICU admission. Yes, it's probably closer to the bottom end of this range, but this is a fantastically different.

> For randomised trials, it makes no sense to say that the difference in baseline is not significant

For randomized trials, the baselines are not likely to be massively different. And, of course, the authors compared risk factors and ages to rule out some of the ways that the trial could be ridiculously tilted from the outset.

> In this case it's pretty obvious the effect of vitamin D would easily be non significant if you shift around some variables.

With systemd (and afaik other service managers) you don't need/should to do all that daemonization dance. The application can run in the foreground, keep any fds open, don't worry about tty etc because the service manager will take care of them for you. As a cherry on top, anything you write on stdout gets automatically forwarded to journald or wherever.

It is more complicated than that. There is a whole industry that depends on tracking IDFA to function, it is not about being creepy, something simple as knowing if your marketing campaign is effective becomes very hard. On one side we have hoarders of data like Facebook and Google, on another side there are legitimate use cases like app publishers measuring marketing performance.

SKAdNetwork was poorly designed, it did not involve publishers and channels and till this week it was literally impossible to test. A 3 month period will allow all actors in the advertising industry to integrate and come up with solutions that protect the user's privacy.

If this was released in the current state, you are giving the whole advertising market in a silver plate to google and facebook, who because of their huge share of SDK integrations are much better prepared to overcome the limitations. The market would also shrink instantly, many publishers and channels would disappear, specially the small ones.
At least one building science expert (Joseph Lstiburek) reccomends a decentralized approach for HVAC, with tightly sealed individual units: https://www.buildingscience.com/documents/digests/bsd-110-hv...

I don't think anyone is claiming the protests are 100% peaceful. The question, then, is how much violence occurs relative to total protest activity?

If fewer than 50% of protestors engage in violence, wouldn't it then be accurate to describe the protest as 'mostly peaceful'?

As a user I don't mind Electron when the main running app (which I define as the app that is in focus > 50% of the time) is written in it. For me this application is VS Code and I'm happy with it. However, I'm concerned that larger and larger count of apps running in background move to Electron platform, mainly because that requires more and more memory (eventually surpassing memory available on my machine).

The Electoral College is neither unfair nor inaccurate. Also, eliminating it would require a constitutional amendment, which could only be proposed by 2/3 majority votes in either the Senate or in a hypothetical "Article V" convention and then passed by 3/4 of the states. So, this reform that supposedly hurts small states requires two levels of approval from small states. That ain't happening.

Protests against Electoral College are a distraction from possible and substantial reforms, like ranked-choice voting and ending interstate crosscheck and similar disenfranchisement efforts.

It really depends on what the potential hazards are for the claim being correct versus the claim being incorrect. If the claim is that you can't get it from sharing an elevator, I would say the hazards if that claim is wrong are much greater than if that claim is correct. So, from a risk-management perspective, without any evidence, it's much better to assume that you can get COVID-19 from sharing an elevator until enough evidence accumulates to demonstrate that you can't. If you assume you can, the worst that happens is that you wait for another elevator. But if you assume you can't and you actually can, then you get COVID-19.

Oh yeah, for plain C, Vim is absolutely good enough. Virtual methods and templates drive the complexity of intellisense and refactoring up to 11. The absolute worst is when you're trying to call a method on a function argument of a templated type. The completer basically has to analyse every single callsite and present you with the intersection of all types that might be used.

How Covid-19 Is Changing the World: A Statistical Perspective – Volume II [pdf]
There's a line where what you call "people's issues with financial self-control" becomes a societal/systemic problem. Alcohol and gambling are the classic examples where extra taxation and regulation like age restrictions come into play. Where is that line for general advertising? I don't know. But it's out there.

P.S. Speaking of videogames, I'm of the opinion that many mobile "gatcha" games should be regulated like gambling products. Hoping legislation catches up in this regard.
I take 5000 IU pills, and they're labeled as 125 mcg. The 0.532mg pills they were getting would thus be around 4.25x as much, or a bit over 21,000 IU based on how D3 is usually labeled for over-the-counter purchase.

Though my pills are "cholecalciferol" not "calcifediol", so there's not a perfect 1:1 correspondance, but your body converts cholecalciferol into calcifediol, so based on nothing else my above calculation is probably not far off.
Thank you thank you thank you. There is a craze for popping Vitamin D related to the raft of observational studies, here... so many of which never find a causal link.

Take my own particular condition: an inherited vascular dysplasia which causes frequent nose and GI bleeds. People with low Vitamin D seem to have a worse time of it in OBSERVATIONAL studies.

But people with GI bleeds so bad they have daily diarrhea from hemorrhages and anemia that disables them to the point they can't work aren't going to be out in the sun, and aren't going to be able to absorb as many vitamins in their gut due to the havoc the hemorrhaging is yielding.

Thinking really hard about the direction the arrow of causality runs here is massively important. Is it:

LOW VITAMIN D ---> BAD BLEEDING?

Or:

BAD BLEEDING ---> LOW VITAMIN D

And as the consequences of overdosing show, this isn't like popping an extra Metamucil cracker a day or something - dire stuff can happen.

Yes but it's inherently safer. Utility scale nuclear was scaled up from naval reactors which are smaller, use highly enriched uranium as opposed to LEU and are safer. Alvin Weinberg, the father of several LWR designs cautioned about the safety of utility scale reactors (17:51):

https://youtu.be/EviEN0ScOwg

The NuScale design also uses LEU and a plant is comprised of up to 12 of these modules sitting in water pools. You can view it as a battery pack where batteris are continously rotated as they are refuelled.

Keycloak DoS – CVE-2020-10758
Regarding the litter and smell - being a relatively new cat owner I did a lot of reading and I came to 2 conclusions (note: I only have one cat, and she's < 1 yo):

1) Litter needs scooping every day. Otherwise cat will rightfully be upset and do poop in the wrong place just to let you know. Recommended to have N+1 litters for the N cats, but small apartment = difficult to place/clean all of them.

2) According to many cat books (notably Jackson Galaxy) litters are a prime scent-soaker and major signpost that lets cat mark their territory. So venting them outside may cause other confidence issues.

Could the smell issue be resolved by simply scooping regularly?

The platform is more powerful, but political and cultural power is also more diffuse and even more chaotic than in previous eras. (And that may not be a coincidence.) So I'm not convinced Zuckerberg has a greater capacity to push society in a particular direction, and certainly don't believe that he has more direct political influence than previous titans. Perhaps he could add to the chaos and confusion in a uniquely consequential manner, but at the very least he's clearly not deliberately trying to do that. In fact, Zuckerberg strikes me as someone acting with relative sincerity, good faith, and even civic mindedness, notwithstanding his self-serving libertarian ideals. And I come to that opinion based on his views alone; I'm always forgetful of his actual philanthropy.

>> Fukushima

>Was reasonably safe for its long life, but they cheaped out on the necessary wall and drainage functionality

They didn't "cheap out" on the seawall at Fukushima. You may be referring to how the plant design was sited closer to the ocean but the seawall was constructed to not be overtopped by the highest tsunami possible. At the time the plant was constructed the theory was that tsunamis were generated in part by underwater landslides and the topology of the surrounding ocean was taken into account to come up with the largest possible tsunami it would have to block. The science behind tsunami formation was flawed during construction and once that theory was later improved no one ever reconsidered the implications for the seawall design.

I agree that public perception is the largest problem by far with nuclear energy but you're not helping your argument by brushing real problems under the rug like this.

I used to get severely depressed, and it was often stress-related; adversity, work, even sickness would make things worse. I completely changed my lifestyle and started working out almost 3 hours a day (walking counts)in addition to removing carbohydrates from my diet almost entirely. After this change, I only get depressed for a second, then I realize I can take action, and then I take action, and it leads to happiness.

YMMV.

my personal theory is that it's related to bacteria in your gut--working out helps promote a good gut microbiome (this is well studied) and removing carbohydrates removes all those bacteria such as lactobactilla which will literally cause psychological changes, these bacteria are part of the metabolic process converting carbohydrates to blood glucose, and they are literally interacting with the nerves in your gut making you feel depressed. It's a biological thing. Psychology never helped me, instead it actively harmed me. The lectures of Robert Sapolsky and the concepts of cognitive behavioral therapy helped the most from the psychological perspective, however. This combination of advice is purely anecdotal of course, but all the steps I took have been widely studied. It's hard to create an industry around the removal of a product, I guess.

They appear to have become a great example of why the small businesses I run typically just walk away from any service we were potentially interested in using if we see a pricing page containing the word "call" but no actual pricing. If you're going to aim for high-touch enterprise sales, that's your choice, it's your business. However, the chances that you will then provide either acceptable quality of service or good value to anyone on the smaller end of the scale tends to zero IME, so it saves everyone time if we look elsewhere immediately. The problems start if it turns out that these companies aren't actually generating enough value to justify the enterprise-level costs either.

For example, say you're running a tool that allows people to quickly experiment with multiple versions of their web site, measure some quantifiable success rate for each version, and perform some basic statistical analysis to guide future changes and improve conversion rates. A basic but useful version of this tool can be implemented in a few days by one competent developer and one competent statistician; I suspect quite a few people reading this discussion have done exactly that. Polishing the tool might take longer and improve its utility somewhat, but it's not as though it's using some secret technique that no normal business can implement for themselves in-house.

At the mostly-self-service end of the spectrum, it might still be worth customers spending a bit of money on the pre-existing tool you make to do that job for them, because you're really competing on immediacy and convenience as much as technical capabilities. At the enterprise level, your competition could instead be some in-house team or some freelancer or agency being brought in from outside just to develop a tool directly for your customer. If they're potentially doing that at a cost less than just the first year of annual fees you're demanding up-front, and according to the customer's exact requirements, both of which seem quite plausible in a case like Optimizely's based on information in other comments here, what exactly is your sales pitch?
