Criteria for listing a species as endangered: https://www.fws.gov/endangered/esa-library/pdf/listing.pdf

What are the criteria for deciding whether
to add a species to the list?

A `species is added to the list when it

is determined to be an endangered or
threatened species because of any of
the following factors:

* the present or threatened
destruction, modification, or
curtailment of its habitat or range;

* overutilization for commercial,
recreational, scientific, or educational
purposes;

* disease or predation;
* the inadequacy of existing
regulatory mechanisms;
* other natural or manmade factors
affecting its survival.

Sounds like gray wolves no longer meet the criteria. In particular, states that lack sufficient current wolf populations can protect them within the state (California and the northeast come to mind).

Personal bias: I'm glad they are part of the ecosystem. I'd like to see one sometime, but probably more comfortable while I'm in a car rather than a tent/hiking, though I understand they are still pretty wary of humans. I do miss seeing the Yellowstone elk herds that have become much more timid since the reintroduction.
Wonderful. You don't believe that people have the right to have opinions that you dislike. And don't see that as a problem.

Possibly because you expect people whose opinions you dislike to treat you like you would treat them if positions were reversed.

I don't mind being dead to you. But I don't want you, or people like you, to be in a position to make decisions about what I can say. Nor do I particularly want to be in a position to decide what you can say. What I want is called "freedom of speech".

As the old saying goes, "Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me."

However when you open up the door to stopping other people from speaking, you have opened up the door to them stopping you from speaking. Are you sure that all of your opinions agree with that majority? Really? You think nothing that others might find controversial? If so, that's weird. And good luck if you ever change your mind about anything important.

You are correct, but I would still agree that it is misleading to some extent.
Consumers prefer native navigation (go straight to an app, not home -> browser -> app) to apps that in practice are native wrappers around web views.
That is freedom of assocition essentially for better or worse - the lack of it isn't stable and is effectively unavoidable as people will still have their own definitions of "disreputable" and apply them the best they can. I liken it to a school with actual gangs in tbe area (as opposed to suburban hysteria) trying to make low level organized crime go away with school uniforms alone.

This seems clearly true and I can't imagine why you're being downvoted.

You could go further and say "Defend individual liberty" is a neutral description of rightist policy. Out of time, it shouldn't be inflammatory at all.
I'd be overjoyed, frankly.

Agree completely. One thing is for sure, I Zoom a lot less now! I guess the imperitive to build a strong company remains the same, there is just no substitute for going out into the world and meeting people.
There's an unavoidable duality (An axis is definitionally perpendicular to the lines of constant value)

The core of the problem is that the system talks about "lines" too much. In regular math, we have axes, but we don't think much about a point being at the "intersection of the x=3 line and the y=5 line", it's just "horizontally 3 and vertically 5". But in GIS we visualize a full grid, with "lines of latitude" instead of "lateral deviation".
This is something I thought about too, this should be the utmost priority to pass on to kids in school but they don't. I became somewhat financial literate late in my twenties and about 20K in debt. I'm debt free now but is something I wish they could've taught me in school. I sometimes wonder if this is done on purpose, after all consumerism is what empowers our economy here in America.

Only writers in the Partner Program see this checkbox. Stories from writers who are not enrolled in the Partner Program will no longer be part of the metered paywall.

So authors obviously have the choice whether their tutorial is behind the metered paywall or not. Here an example of a free article: https://medium.com/@rochus.keller/implementing-call-by-refer.... Can you access it or not?
On a thread yesterday I said that Windows' settings and lack of native keyboard remapping (without registry editing) were the most ridiculous things about it.

This pointer not respecting night-shift hits the trifecta hat trick. There's a registry fix, of course, but the first time I saw it, I thought "huh, that's weird". How did this get out without somebody on the release train thinking to themselves the exact same thing?
Very nice.

I think wider adoption of the "write your app UI in each platform language, and then write your business logic in JS and share it between all platforms" pattern really depends on Android or iOS officially supporting JS (or really Node/V8) as a first-class citizen.

Right now, only companies like NativeScript are pushing it as a framework and their approach comes with for-profit baggage, i.e. “write your iOS and only Android apps in JS!”. Mobile engineers have learned to fear those promises and larger enterprises are unwilling to risk their entire app architecture relying on one vendor.
He sells hot sauce that's carried by major stores, owns restaurants and who knows what he has made from gaming. He streams on Twitch and puts up some ridiculous Donkey Kong scores even if they aren't close to the current world record. He is still pretty popular in some circles. His restaurant isn't too far from my house and he makes regular appearances there so I assume he lives around here too. Cost of living isn't too high. He's probably doing alright.
From what I understand ADHD and Autism share some symptoms but ADHD isn’t part of the spectrum because the causes are different.

It’s generally understood that the effects of ADHD diminish as you get older but the effects of Autism do not.
We all know Rust web frameworks can't go head to head with Rails or Django; in other words, they're probably not the best fit for typical CRUD applications. But what I wonder is if there's yet a Rust web framework or set of libraries that would be a good fit for the type of stateful real-time web application where Phoenix is such a good fit right now. That is, a framework based on something like the actor model, with fault tolerance and clustering, with WebSocket-based channels built atop those actors, and possibly topped off with a real-time thin-client system like Phoenix LiveView. Those things, plus a statically-typed AOT-compiled language with great runtime efficiency like Rust, would be a killer combination.

Additional comments:

The tutorial is nice, I like how it guides me through the tool. But I struggled finding the publish button. As it was under the Share text. It would be quick win to make it more of a CTA (make it blue or something like that). Look at Figma for an example.
With a 1-year license on the development software, it seems. Thanks, but I'll pass. I can't commit my spare time like that.
>I also don't get why you'd kill just to kill.

Hunting is an important part of modern conservation, and human hunters are the only controllable element in the predation cycle. Hunting wolves in the way the gp is referring to would be a set season with a specific number of wolves of a certain sex and size in a specific area. These numbers are determined by conservationists in the USFS among others, in order to keep a reasonable and sustainable number of wolves.
Did I lie?

If so, call @dang to delete my comment. An anonymous high level official said it "smells like" Russian disinfo.
The thing about the Future is, there's always more of it.
The wolves are naturally moving into open territory as their numbers grow in Wisconsin at least. Why do you think this is a class issue?
People don't deal well with complications or nuance. So everything communicated broadly has to be quick, catchy and fit in a single descriptive phrase.

Scientists have published hundreds of thousands of pages of specific RCA for specific things.
This isn't necessarily true. I helped build a business on top of AppEngine. We did $80m gross in our first year. Our bill went up to about $500 a month. Why so low? Because we designed the system to scale from the start. We became experts in how to make the system work for us. We knew what would end up costing us money, so we engineered it from the start so it wouldn't cost us money.

Here is the case study written after I left the company...

I strongly agree with the part about the purpose of sharing the information:

I am buying from time to time website-based tutorials or other type of content. I agree this creates a new problem: I don't even know what I bought in the last years, what kind of online live books with exercises I bought and from where. I try to keep them in a document, but sometimes I forget and search email to find out.

Still I would like to ask that if someone just wants to share information and it is not focused on monetization then please consider other options than Medium.

A lot of newcomers will not make a subscription there.
If I'm deep enough into a csv file that I'm worried about everything I noted above, I usually just load the data into Postgres and trust that their devs got it right. Pretty presentation is free at that point :-)
Personally I only aim for the guilty ones, but occasionally wildlife court takes too long and I have to make snap judgements.
Super cool product.

> I dare say I have not yet seen a single parser in my life that handles such issues. In fact I don't think I've seen a parser that can parse a date interval, or that can even do "parse this string assuming it is after that date", or anything like that.

You can google "nlp date extraction" maybe? I've used libraries in the past that do this.

Note: they're far from being perfect. I ended up not using any, as each had their weird corner cases.

Here's an old one: http://natty.joestelmach.com/try.jsp#

It's hollywood after all. Obviously this is to keep information from spreading. It's just convenient to put it under "copyright law"
Understood. I was thinking it might have been a GDPR tackle tactic :-)
> Are you saying that people shouldn't be allowed to boycott things they don't like?

No, people should be allowed to do as they please (assuming they aren't abusing the earth or other living beings), and boycotts are a useful tool for change.

But it's becoming the first tool people reach for, and that's not healthy. Kind of how force is sometimes necessary, but should be avoided as much as possible. Someone who jumps to force immediately is a scary person to empower.

Also, there is a noteworthy difference between boycotting something you don't like and boycotting whichever power is capable of cancelling the thing you don't like. It's definitely necessary at times, but it's not a great means to an end.

My mother read me this book as a child (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Butter_Battle_Book) and the fact that overt force will be met with greater overt force until someone hits a limit (and nobody really wins) has stuck and has been very consistently reinforced in my life. I see cancel culture as pretty obvious show of force and no matter how much people might inflate its victories and minimize its short-comings, I see it netting out to roughly zero. It really just enables worse behavior on both sides.
Naive is buying into a jingoist narrative about how everything bad in our own country is because of the scary Russians and Chinese.

We've got billion-dollar Presidential campaigns and 100M-dollar senate campaigns, but an office floor full of internet trolls are the ones swinging the balance of power in our country? Who's naive? Take some responsibility -- if we suck, that's on us.
There's also a great Unix command called "mail". But as everyone else pointed out, that's not really the technical problem here.
> And the other part is simply just ethos, who the author is does change what kind of credibility you will give an argument.

Initially, maybe. It sounds a lot like the comment was arguing that people should do as much as the article's author before they are allowed to "pick it apart". That's lazy thinking to me, "that person has done a lot, don't you dare criticize their article". And that, mind you, before anyone had even pulled apart the point, it's some kind of pre-emptive argument to authority.
I have rarely seen Jet used as a divergent colourmap (i.e. in places where the data is roughly centred around 0), and it would do a particularly poor job at this. There are two perceptual peaks in lightness, in the cyan and yellow sections, and neither of these are centred.

Even worse, you can can see in the visualisation of various types of colourblindness that with protanopia only the cyan peak is visible, and with tritanopia only the yellow peak is visible.
That ambiguity irked me, too. The full text[1] mentions collecting serum samples from participants "after at least 8 h of fasting," and that the study was conducted from early May to early June at Baylor in Houston, which would make for a ~14 hour fast each day.

The USPS is an agency of the federal government and is subject to constitutional law.

Likewise, if we want to talk about social norms -- private publishers have long enjoyed editorial authority in the US. Only in very few specific instances have we forced private publishers to publish against their will.

Fun looking app. Kind of reminds me of Comic Sans, though xD
I was interested in Rust for the strong type system and borrow checker and such as well as praise from functional programmers I trust but my experience with trying to do FP in Rust was so dreadful that I put it down and stopped learning it. Perhaps I will need it badly enough to push through this someday.
None of what I have is tied specifically to google/firebase. It would be a day or two of work to move off to slightly different APIs.
it more fun to hunt them with helicopter and night vision gear, than to pay for the losses.
Many Reddit subs have been discouraging people from posting their own content for years now, and the reach you get on Twitter is entirely dependent on who's in your network. Hacker News is probably the second-best option to Medium since both are about as democratic, but Medium has more readers.
> Jet is effectively a divergent colormap

I wouldn't describe a rainbow colormap as divergent.

A divergent colormap transitions from one color to another, with neutral color in the middle (e.g., from blue to red, passing through white). A rainbow color map transitions between a series of spectrally-orderd distinct colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet); this gives rise to apparent discontinuities (e.g. [0]).

If you want a divergent color scheme to highlight the extreme values, then use one (see, e.g. [1]) rather than a rainbow scheme.

It "feels" different - perhaps a hint that the whole notion of Monopoly in Big Tech is essentially a "big lie" repeated so incessantly that others start repeating it thoughtlessly because it "feels right"?

A single standard has all three equally right with private property administration.
I think there was a study done with similar levels of calories restriction and the results were the exact same.
Medium's popularity a few years ago prompted an idea for me. I wanted to be able to remove all links to domains I knew I never wanted to visit from all pages because I kept wasting time accidentally clicking them, not realizing where they were going.

I had hoped to pull it off with uBlock Origin but I couldn't get the filters to do what I wanted. I ended up making a Firefox add-on that takes a regex and some css, searches all attribute values and/or text for a match, and applies the css to the element with the match.

So, I have a regex for a handful of popular domains I never want to see and matched elements get "visibility: hidden". The result is that I never see a link to Medium. In fact, I usually forget the site exists until someone mentions it without linking to it, which is almost always a post about how Medium sucks :) Same for all the other domains in the list.

The plugin works on Firefox for Android, so I've enjoyed the benefits there as well. However, I expect that to be a problem soon. I don't do much browsing on my phone anyway.

It's only designed for personal use, so the interface is terrible, but I had to submit it to the official add-on repository because there's no reasonable way to run an add-on locally for practical every-day use, so it is available for anyone to use [1]. Source [2].

The exact year isn't really the point... Maybe it was 2000. The point is that Python existed all through the 90s and was not very popular for a long time. Rust has only been passed 1.0 for five years and it's already gotten a ton of attention, even from big players.
https://typegraphql.com/ is building the API for me.
Thank you. I've used sqlite, but being able to query the data is not the same as being able to browse that data.

For instance, consider a project that I'm currently working on. Google Docs sheet exported to CSV. The file documents dozens of servers used as load balancers, websites, and database servers. The files has gone from MS Excel to Google Docs, and been maintained by four admins over 12 years. There are no columns per se, rather "sections of rows", each of which isn't even consistent in itself. One section is double columned, with the top row listing public IP address, login name, etc and the second row listing LAN IP address, login password, etc.

sqlite is useless on these files and frankly I've seen these things more often than well-formatted spreadsheets at every company I've ever worked with. Nobody but software developers treat spreadsheet columns as database fields.
Oooo, a sarcasm detector, that's real useful!

if by "worked" you mean "spent more time actually doing something" than no: i finish my work much faster without all of the office distractions.

Thanks for sharing! I played the Quest games as a kid and only heard in passing about Ken and Roberta and early Sierra (I was young enough to not know how unusual it was for a software company to be started and run by a married couple). In my completely presumptive head canon, Sierra petered out because LucasArts games were so much better, and Ken & Roberta sold out and moved into early retirement. I hadn't known Roberta was fighting to the very end for her vision on King's Quest VIII.

(Speaking of LucasArts: peeking at KQ8's Wikipedia entry, I see Roberta made the astonishing claim that KQ8 sold twice as well as Grim Fandango: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King%27s_Quest:_Mask_of_Eterni...)
And yet none of the actually damaging or morally questionable emails have available DKIM signatures that can be verified. How funny that is. Almost as if the liars who wish to continue pushing this bit of political disinformation are unable to actually provide the info and are just hoping that people accept their unfounded claims. It worked before with Hillary and the Podesta emails, so I guess these agents thought it would be easy to repeat the same playbook but are so lazy that they could not even do the basic opsec legwork to make the claim hold together.

It is not shocking that there are so many useful idiots around the world (and here) that are willing to keep talking up this obvious disinformation. What is shocking is how lazy they are and how stupid they seem to think the rest of us are.
Interesting! I recall reading about this before but I’d forgotten it.

And I suppose one of the things that trips people up a lot about ruby is that the implicit return gives a different result — eg your example but without the “return true if” part DOES return an array, like JavaScript.

Wow, haven't seen some of those graphics in a long long time. Beautiful. It's just missing the visitor counter and guestbook!
Thanks! The difference between Deepnote and MyBinder is that we keep the pool of Docker images as small as possible. That means they are always in cache. You can still write your own Dockerfile, but they are layered on our base image. MyBinder has a lot of work that needs to be done (pulling the image, sometimes building it, etc) which we thankfully mostly avoided.

Regarding the lock-in, it's in our best interest to remain fully compatible. So yes, there'll always be a way how to export your project and run it in plain Jupyter. The hope is the more advanced features (comments, output visualizations, different cell types) will appear in Jupyter over time as well, but it's also up to Jupyter whether they want those features.
Also paywalled for me. Fuel consumption has been drastically reduced and I don't even drive that far. That also means less hours exposed to traffic collision risk. I believe insurance companies should give me a discount for that, but I won't install a tracker so I doubt it will happen.
It's there, look closely. Try around here "window.scrollTo(0, 10400);"
