Hello. Thanks for your feedback.

You are correct. Every greenhouse of course has risk associated with it. However, it is less than in the field if managed properly. In general, thrips are a minor problem on wine and raisin grapes in California. From what I have read they are more of an issue for table grapes. See ‘management’ section at this link. http://ipm.ucanr.edu/PMG/r302300911.html#:~:text=Grape%20thr....

Thanks for taking the time to reach out!
No one actually expects production level quality from an intern
I'm sorry, but this is literally the first thing that ever came out about covid and its symptoms. Are people really that inconsiderate or uninformed as to not assume that loss of sense of smell implies covid? I don't see what this article and study contribute to someone concerned about the spread of disease or personal health. No wonder we are still in a pandemic if this is helpful or insightful to people.
To be clear there were plenty of Black British people who were annoyed at the Bantu knots, as well as people who didn't care.
You're still testing only the initial connection timing this way. Curl does not preserve the TLS sessions between executions by default.

To test session resumption you can do: "curl https://your-url https://your-url https://your-url https://your-url" instead.
Effective for what?
Wow, password reset tokens returned directly in-browser; that's hard to believe. I wonder how long this had been going on?
Nothing better than sleep sort.
I guess the good news is that it requires knowledge of the user's email address to execute. You can't just run it on random people (emails aren't disclosed) and even if you know someone on the app in real life, chances are good that they use a personal address that you won't have.

Still a pretty bad vulnerability and pretty awful that grindr was ignoring it.
This just makes me think that one of the main source of global warming is human population ( as co2 producers).
>"Paying out millions of dollars in legal settlements is something the district will care about, and might cost someone their job"

I'd bet this is something the voters will care about, but it's likely to be attributed to some 'innocent mistake', 'communication error', or 'server misconfiguration'. The school district won't lose any revenue, and I doubt anyone will get fired. Maybe a contractor will get scapegoated.

People on HN complain about how reckless private companies are with their data, but bureaucracies are even less accountable.
> A large number of people suffered a small amount of efficiency loss. The number of utils or QALY or whatever metric you want lost was probably fairly substantial.

If the market closing is so bad for its participants, why aren’t they lobbying to keep it open past 4PM? Or on Saturdays?
> Handshakes are illegal

Ha!
I think there's probably going to be violence and rioting, no matter who wins.

If Trump wins, and the left/antifa thinks he "shouldn't have" (which they almost certainly will, because voter suppression or electoral college or foreign interference or racism or whatever), then they're going to riot, maybe for a while. Maybe for a fairly long time if the race winds up in the Supreme Court, and is Justice Barrett casts the deciding vote. Big, left-leaning cities could get hot for a while, especially if the Proud Boys or whoever decide that it's their duty to put a stop to the rioting. That's not civil war, though. That's street brawling with a little bit of shooting.

If Biden wins, though, and Trump says that the results are invalid, because of mail fraud, or shenanigans by ballot counters, or whatever, and if he really sticks to that, then I could see an actual civil war - the "authorities" (minus Trump and his circle) vs the red states and Trump's circle. The closer the race, the more likely this scenario is. (It could be circumvented if Trump for once had a moment of decency and conceded the race. I'm not holding my breath for that to happen...)

Sure thing! I typically like to only link to primary source so as to avoid accusations of bias.

Here are some articles that summarize the primary source:

I agree that the world is a complex system, but I don't actually agree that all or most of my actions as a private individual have wide reaching consequences. If you're below a certain critical threshold of wealth, power, social influence or some combination thereof, it really just doesn't matter what you do, it's the law of large numbers. The butterfly effect is a rare exception in complex systems, not a regularity - COVID Patient 0, for example, took actions that had wide reaching consequences, but I wouldn't consider those actions to have been "fundamentally political". Both the impact and the opportunity cost of the vast majority of my actions or inactions, on the greater world, is close to zero. People trying to convince you that "you can make a difference" in your everyday life as a private citizen by voting, recycling, showing up at the protest, boycotting the right products, etc, are in fact lying - they can, potentially, make a difference by causing a wide enough cross-section of a population to change their behaviors, but you the individual are not acting with wide reaching consequences, you are simply shuffling between indifferent behavioral cohorts which will continue to exist in the same proportions regardless of your individual choices.
They said they did a check for "everything" but I didn't ask what "everything" meant. From my extremely limited research, "everything" isn't everything, though and thyroid is skipped a lot. I had some tests in the past from a family doctor but nothing came up for thyroid. I'm worried about giving out my symptoms because they align very strongly with depression; apparently a lot of people get diagnosed with anti depressants instead of thyroid conditions.

Sometimes it feels like someone is holding down the brakes; I want to start my own company, I want to make friends, I want to get outside and explore, I want to read, maybe I could find a date or something but I don't have the energy. I don't know if it's a health thing or if I just need to watch more motivational videos.

No. The opposite. It means more harvesting of the trees to yield the raw materials that is wood to produce such a glass.

I doubt that; I bet most users use whatever Gmail/etc personal address they use for other non-work accounts.
You can't get a monitor that is good at being a TV, as TVs are. You also can't get a TV that is as good at being a monitor, as a monitor is. At competitive prices of course. They are designed for different things.

Imagine someone running their contact list through this. You could find everyone you know on Grindr right away, and snoop on their conversations and read their personal info...

Nitpicking the 25000 metric tons of CO2 quoted in glass manufacturing is essentially inconsequential. Whereas according to [1] aviation produced 915 million metric tonnes of CO2 in 2019 and estimates globally 43 billion tonnes of CO2 produced. Basically, the carbon offset from glass manufacturing by using transparent wood is a rounding error in the grand scheme of things and doesn't even mention the carbon cost of the procedure to create transparent wood, which likely negates the aforementioned offset. Smells like a classic academic attempt to hype the importance of their research. The far more compelling case for this transparent wood seems like the improved insulation. What kind of carbon savings would we see in terms of heating / cooling if we weatherized homes using it? Now you're talking about year after year carbon savings! That's the kind of numbers I would have liked to see in this article, not some paltry appeal to 0.00005% emission savings in glass manufacturing.

Parents/students do not have a private right of action under applicable federal law (FERPA). The US Dept of Education could theoretically hold the school district to account, but that would be extraordinary (speaking of the current context, but also historically).

Before cryptocurrencies were widespread ransomware used vouchers such as PaySafeCard to get paid. Tech support scams use gift cards to get paid.

I'm not convinced that banning cryptocurrencies will 1) significantly curb ransomware activity nor 2) that it's worth banning a tool with legitimate use that's valuable in certain countries with unstable economic situations (there are valid, non-nefarious reasons for why you'd need to move money without your government's approval).
I'm not an anarcho-capitalist if that's what you're asking. Anarcho-capitalism is a great idealization but remains unsuitable for the real world.

It's very hard to discuss the State without referencing Hobbes, Locke, Montesquieu, etc. Over the past century min-anarchism (of which I at least consider anarcho-capitalism to be a variant of) in general has not offered anything convincing to solve the issues they raised. I'm not optimistic it will do so in the next century either. I'm open to having my mind changed though.

How does one assure security with a minimal "night watchman" State? Note that security does not just mean physical security, but also an intangible feeling of safety in the sense that one can go outside without fear of anything untoward happening to them. And I'm well familiar with Ben Franklin's aphorism. Nevertheless it is a real issue and one that the U.S. Constitution solved reasonably well.

Edit: Also I find it hard to take seriously anybody that references "neoliberal policies" as that article does. What does that even mean? Free markets? Property rights? Movement of capital? All those things are ingredients to prosperity, in my view. Often "neoliberal" ends up just being those parts of capitalism that one doesn't like. And of course everyone has their own subset. Mass confusion, non-stop arguments over I'm not sure what exactly ensue.
I wonder if it does not go back a bit further than that. An internal bias towards not living with your parents could be the foundation of modern humans dispersing into every marginally habitable corner the planet in not many generations.

Where can you get a 55 inch computer monitor?
Go to a doctor. I have congenital anosmia, and all the research I've done says that losing your sense of smell is serious. There are some things that may help, but they are more effective the sooner you do them.

If you are in the bay area there is a doctor at Stanford who actively researching in this field:

It would be very easy to target a large group of individuals at a given organization.
Are you currently in the western world? I live in Los Angeles, which is a city that feels like it's trapped in the 1990s. Our highways were never finished and the city is fundamentally crippled as a result. We are building rail faster than any other city but it's still far too little and much too late, and what we do build is littered with compromises and further issues that hobble its utility, such as a failure to develop grade separations, until the project is redone entirely. The local government is corrupt. The FBI is indicting councilmen and city hall officials left and right. We are zoned for a smaller population than we were in the 1920s, with 4x the population living here today compared to the 1920s.

This isn't just LA. Development across the U.S. over the past 20 years has been largely stagnant, and this is reflective in our huge shortage of housing supply that has come to bite us in the rear in recent decades with homes increasingly out of reach for working people, not just in California, but increasingly in flyover places like Idaho and Ohio too.

Of course, maybe it's the U.S. that is 30 years behind the western world.
For me, saying no much of the time has changed my life for the better.

I was constantly doing things I didn't want to do because I didn't know how to say no to friends and family, eventually becoming a little resentful at being dragged to too many events and having no time for myself, even though it was always my fault for saying yes too much.
There's so many trade-offs within this statement I felt like it deserved some color -
* Spinning up an event-based architecture is prone to the same issues GP describes - For example what if you spin up a 'pub' side without the corresponding 'sub' side?
* Event-based architecture does not inherently give you better observability of the whole system. I would argue it's actually worse to begin with because of the decoupled nature of the services. You have to build tooling to monitor traces across services or cross-system health
* Any 'well-designed' system will solve these problems. A monolith with good tooling and monitoring will be more easily understood than a poorly designed event-based system.
* I think metrics and monitoring are really the key to knowing about a system, regardless of the architecture.

Basically, I think you can remove your first sentence and leave the last to make a truer statement. A great system should have design considerations and tools to make it understood at various scopes by various people of various skills. I think people have falsely conflated event-based architecture with systems health due to having to rewrite a system almost from scratch, which results in better tooling since it's something you're thinking about actively.
What does the mean, though? Mathematics as we understand it is an abstraction. If the universe is fundamentally abstract, what breathes fire into the models? Consciousness?
It's more like

1) Application sends a message w/ ordering key "abc" (let's call it msg1)
2) Pub/Sub gets msg1.
3) Pub/Sub acknowledges that msg1 was received. Now, you can be secure we have stored this message durably.
4) Pub/Sub sends msg1 to the subscriber ASAP if there's one available.
5) A subscriber client assigned to ordering key "abc" gets msg1.
6) The subscriber client processes msg1 and sends an ack to Pub/Sub.
7) Pub/Sub receives the ack and removes the message from storage. (It's possible to retain acked messages, but let's not talk about that for simplicity.)

Another message for the same ordering key "abc" arriving at Pub/Sub any time after step 4 will be delivered to the subscriber only after msg1. To summarize, the timestamp of a successful publish response is the timestamp by which we order messages sent to the client.

Pub/Sub may not send messages immediately if the subscriber is too slow to ack the message (perhaps each message takes a while to process) or if the subscriber is down or if there's too many messages in the backlog for the ordering key. In these cases, you can be assured that they're safely stored on disk and will be resent later (after some backoff period.)

So, to answer your question directly, we only stall the sending of ordered messages to subscribers if there's a backlog for that ordering key or if the subscriber not fast enough.
Why most Hacktoberfest PRs are from India
"OK, so what’s the bottom line? Is it in principle possible to go faster than light? And if so, how can we actually do it?"

"I’m pretty sure that, yes, in principle it’s possible. In fact, as soon as one views space as having an underlying structure, and not just being a mathematical manifold “all the way down”, it’s pretty much inevitable. But it still requires essentially “hacking” space, and “reverse engineering” its structure to find features like “space tunnels” that one can use."

Well, unless he shows what he means via rigourous mathematics or a foolproof demonstration, those are words without meanings.
On the contrary, if it ever shrank to an extent that posed an existential threat I think it is almost certain that a different consensus algorithm (such as proof of stake) would be adopted.

There's no telling how the legalities surrounding crypto currency will evolve but I seriously doubt that it will ever disappear.
Imposter Syndrome?

Most of us are actually better than we think we are. OTOH, some of our work really is bad.

Overall, most of us are as bad and as good as the next person. But we tend to focus on how bad our shortcomings are and play down our successes. Just Human nature.

There's an old proverb that's helpful in these cases "If it works, don't fix it."
The ad revenue is all profit, though. I have no idea what the bill-of-materials is on a Samsung TV, but hardware generally doesn't have as good profit margins as software for obvious reasons. If they are doubling their profits, I mean, I don't like it but I see why they're doing it.

This is the most exciting part to me. If you’ve ever done a Manual J (load calculation) for an HVAC system, it’s amazing how much energy is lost through windows. Energy.gov says 25-30%.
When IE5 for Mac was released 20 years ago, it was the best web browser, period. But it was the last version Microsoft made for Mac, IE6 was Windows-only. While IE6 might have been better overall than IE5 on either platform, IE stagnated, Apple made their own browser to supplant IE5, and Mozilla created Firefox to replace Netscape (and there was Opera which never had much market share but was still influential on other browsers).
Good point, even just being able to use it as a tool to play "gay or not" has some pretty aweful implications for people who aren't openly gay.

>If the US and China crack down on trading houses and currency conversion (aka ban them) there's not enough mining happening elsewhere in the world to keep the chain safe.

Getting such a ban in place would be the hard part. If US banned bitcoin, I'd imagine US's enemies would sponsor bitcoin exchanges/miners just to piss off the US. Also, considering that miners be located literally anywhere and only need a modest amount of bandwidth to operate, shutting down clandestine mining operations would be very difficult. See: all the illegal drug labs/grow ops around the world.
Sure like "Intel" and "IBM" would be a good place to start :)

Even if you ban legitimate usage of cryptocurrencies, it will still have value underground for criminal activities as a settlement mechanism between criminals (Bitcoin/Monero seems easier to move than bags of physical cash).
You have a point. String theorists did go off of a deep end. But most scientists did not follow them down that course.
Regardless, "breaking into splinters rather than shattering" isn't a desirable property of a window material. Safety glass isn't used everywhere because it's more expensive, not because builders want windows to break into larger chunks.

Privacy is just another way the author states personal boundaries. and I think what the author is trying to state is there is a dossier of GPS locations, messages, and contacts you have made available to the Tech Giants and in the future they may not be as benevolent as they are now. They may be able to create an environment of chaos like throwing the damned into a colosseum to tear each other apart for their own amusement. Who knows? The people who run this industry are aloof billionaires. I don't know what future they have in store for all of us anymore than you or the author does.
Every person's profit would have been somebody else's loss. They match exactly, less transaction costs which were saved by both sides. Of course somebody else didn't collect on the transaction costs.

(I haven't taken any psychedelics either.)

I think in GP's observations, "collective delusions" is the key phrase. I actually had this realization some time ago - as my mind accepted and internalized that all these mental abstractions are indeed collective delusions. We learn to intuitively expect the world to work in a certain way, but it only happens because almost everyone expects that too. Money is often referred to such a concept: it has value only as long as people believe it has value. That $10 in your pocket is only worth $10 if roughly everyone is willing to accept it in exchange for something, on the expectation that they'll be able to later exchange it with someone else. Rule of law is similar - it prevents people from seeking justice through violence, but only as long as everyone believes the law mostly works.

(This is why I consider attacks on public trust as an existential threat to society.)

I'm guessing shrooms let GP have this realization on overdrive, hitting directly and viscerally. I conclude that while not strictly necessary, psychedelics may be a fast track for one to do mental leaps, if somewhat at random.
I didn’t say that I still believed the things I felt on mushrooms, only that they impacted me. I still buy pizzas with money, but I now look at people with lots of money and boring/stressful lives the way people look at animals in the zoo—with a kind of half-hearted interest in watching them but also with a great sadness for them.
