Read about burner mode of breeder reactors, they allow to "burn" spent nuclear fuel and make the resulting waste much safer in the long-term, i.e. not only volume of waste will be 100 times smaller, but also the "burnt" fuel will be relatively safe radiologically speaking after just several hundreds years, instead of tens of thousands of years for waste from existing reactors).

So, git hooks are basically executable scripts (of whatever language you have available, I use bash) placed in the .git/hooks dir, whcih are then executed at whichever event is designated (by the name of the script itself) For me, it's post-recieve. After initial setup, a push automatically triggers the post-recieve hook that does something like the following from my git dir:

GIT_WORK_TREE=..../example.com git checkout -f

and voila, pushes are insta-live, but commits can be pulled and worked on in the meantime.

How to count every language in India (2018)
I share this same sentiment as a Chinese American and I wouldn't be surprised if other Asians rolled their eyes at the riots that took place. No one talks about the BS that Asians have to deal with let alone know about them (i.e. affirmative action + minor minority myth = discrimination towards Asians, discrimination/crime towards Asians by blacks), but we're not gonna whine about this because that's just not what we do, we carry on working hard and not succumbing to victim mentality (i.e. when was the last time you saw an ALM organization).
Namaskar. I have found most Americans don't see India as part of Asia for whatever reason.
If you had a pirated copy of Autodesk 3D Studio (before MAX, for DOS), everything would work and appear normal. But eventually, the geometry of your models would become corrupted -- subtly at first, then with continued use each model would become a spiky mess, like a fruit fly with an unfortunate hedgehog gene mutation.

IHVs and ISVs can have subtle ways of punishing you for using their products in a manner not explicitly authorized. If you do not like the terms, do not buy the product.

For many it could just be a convenience, assuming the distro way just works. With conflicting goals and approaches, you might end up worse off though. Ideally, you mostly want to spend time and effort on higher pursuits than managing or building your own platform.
Thank you for your reply. It's about in line with my experience. I think my frustration so far isn't in the expectation of being cured, but in not have any treatment giving any kind of relief that's not measured in minutes, even just taking the edge off of the pain, as you described. I will definitely take to heart the suggestion of tempering my expectations. Thanks again for sharing.
Regardless of what ultimately happens with the Hunter Biden story (whether it is proven true or not or if it even matters either way), Twitter and the rest of big tech should not be trusted to operate their platforms well. There have been too many examples of their biases (see https://thefederalist.com/2020/10/15/11-hacks-leaks-and-hoax...) and in the last few years, there has been a sharp uptick in their willingness to censor, deplatform, judge truth and falsehoods, control narratives, etc. They play too big an influencing role in society to be trusted with these unilateral powers. We should demand that they support free speech, operate neutrally, censor minimally (no more than the law requires), and stop getting in the way of conversations.
It's infinitely harder to accurately put a dollar cost on externalities than to check whether a piece of hardware can be repaired.
I'm 32 and, after previously being quite healthy, developed POTS after having gone through four years of chronic pain from a freak muscle spasm in my pec, chest and neck resembling TOS and continues to this day.

I've been seen at Stanford by Dr. Jaradeh in autonomic neurology, who found delayed orthostatic hypotension with sparing of the parasympathetics, caused by mild to moderate dysautonomia (the drop in blood pressure gives me orthostatic tachycardia; strictly speaking, this isn't POTS, which has no drop in blood pressure). I've got GI symptoms as well, plus widespread muscle tenderness, pain (and lately, burning sensation) to go with it (mostly in my calves and hips, but even in weird places like my jaw muscles). There seems to be no inflammatory cause, though, since rheumatological and inflammatory neuropathy workup has been strictly negative.

Now, I've never been diagnosed with EDS, although I am tall and thin enough to classify as borderline marfanoid habitus (I'm a couple inches longer in my arm span than my height.)

I'm pretty much at my wits end with what could be causing the POTS, though. As of now I am presuming it to be instigated by chronic pain radiating from the chest to the spine.

The really troublesome thing is my "TOS" doesn't really seem to be TOS at all, because although it continues to cause me great pain in the thoracic outlet area and pec, none of the diagnostic criteria for TOS show up when I do provocative tests like raising my arm. Instead I've been diagnosed by pain management as having intercostal neuralgia of the first rib and possible costochondritis. I can push my finger below my clavicle where it meets my sternum and elicit a lot of pain, which radiates to my pec. Earlier this summer I had a diagnostic nerve block in the intercostal area of the first rib, and it killed the pain locally (my neck and shoulder are still in a lot of pain).

As of now I am hoping a procedure I have scheduled to zap the first rib area will numb the pain long enough to do some kind of physical therapy consistent with what TOS patients do. The procedure is shy of RF ablation of the intercostal nerve, and is instead what's called pulsed RF neuromodulation, which doesn't quite melt the nerve, but is meant to interfere with the pain signals (much like TENS).

I've read in the literature that POTS has been seen in TOS patients. What's frustrating to me is that I am in about as much pain, but because as far as I can tell it's not actually TOS, I either don't need or don't want something like surgery. And yet here I am years later, having reassured myself that surgery wouldn't be indicated, but wound up with autonomic dysfunction / POTS anyway. In a way I regret simply not pursuing pain management earlier, and yet costocondritis isn't supposed to last this long from what I've read.

(I have never been referred to a TOS surgeon for evaluation, but I think about four doctors by now have had me do the provocative TOS measures, with negative results of course. A part of me thinks I should just self-refer anyway and have them at least do a TOS ultrasound to see what's going on.)
I'm glad that the lecture slides were publicly available. I was particularly excited about the slides for architecture and design docs. I just wish I could sit in to listen on lectures (or have the discipline to read through the textbook :PP).

In my undergrad, I felt that my CS classes were divided into "theory" and "systems". But, even the "systems" classes would feel removed from the modern tech industry and commercial software.

The topics that I see mentioned in the syllabus are familiar to me, but only because I surf Medium articles, and not because of my formal CS education. Yet, these topics are incredibly deep and complex. I would consider the people who work on them to be researchers in a hyper-specific domain.

They suspended 12 of my accounts for no reason (generic ToS violation) only because they were linked together using TweetDeck. None of them violated anything, and appeals are still progressing 2 months later. 8/12 unsuspended - 4 more to go.

What was especially sad was that I used tweetdeck to improve my security - can use the account without sharing my password. However, twitter penalized me for trying to improve security by using it as a discovery mechanism for my remaining accounts.

With Otter it is complicated. It iMac needs the sound to be split but Safari is not allowing it. So they recommend Chrome and changing it’s settings. Then setting up aggregate device. But it is not working. The only way it is working is if the sound is also coming out from the speakers and the microphone is picking it up. Too complicated, there is a feedback and no streaming to the hearing aids. So Zoom + Otter is out of the picture. Teams has the captioning and the best quality. What happens is a lot of companies are demanding in using only Zoom. This is a misters why they just don’t use the link of the Teams invite. If they don’t have it installed it is working from the browser too.
Fascinating. I gained the ability to dissociate very similarly after I had all 4 wisdom teeth removed in one surgery as a teenager. Post-surgery, I fell into a very deep depression and took a fair amount of Hydrocodone for the pain.

For the next number of months, I could almost at will separate my "thinking/conscious" self from my depressed and deeply in pain self (due to a TMJ disorder from the surgery, when they had to crack my jawbone to excise the teeth).

I was prescribed an antidepressant, Prozac, at the time. Prozac is only an SSRI, not an SSNRI like Cymbalta, but the mechanisms of action may be similar. I've always wondered why I was able to do that kind of dissociation — it would make sense if the Prozac prompted it.

I think this same kind of dissociation can be achieved through tremendous discipline and practice at meditation. I think it was the technique used by Thích Quảng Đức when he self-immolated: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxrBik16Hzg.

Shut Up, I’m Manifesting
Political reporting is primarily about shaping current events to fit a predefined narrative. Contrary evidence is cleaved from the story if it doesn't fit the agenda.

It is hypocritical when the authors paint themselves as concerned with the plight of an identity category, but downplay negative outcomes when it contradicts their agenda. From my perspective this shows how little these supposedly compassionate voices actually care. They're simply exploiting the situation to score political points.

This isn't unique to Asian-American identity politics. If you look you can find it across the entire spectrum of identity politics. The obvious solution in my view is to concern ourselves with the plight of individuals as individuals, not members of a specific tribe. Treating individuals equally was at the core of liberalism, but today it has been overtaken by philosophies that put membership in an identity category before the individual. The outcome is predictably divisive and toxic.
Molten salt reactors is a nightmare for material science. You effectively have half of Mendeleev's table on your hands and it's borderline impossible to design a material which will have enough corrosion resistance (reactors have to serve at least several decades) and don't forget about high levels of radiation as well, which also contributes to material damage. Plus online fuel processing is much more difficult than the fuel processing required for fast breeder reactors, and it's one of the main stumbling blocks for breeders right now (well, judging by Russian's experience).
It’s tricky in some cases, but consumer electronics are actually pretty easy because most of the harm done is during manufacture (Apple estimates that more than 75% of an iPhone’s emissions come from manufacture). You could either expect Apple to pay for the externalities at production, or mandate that they’re required to accept back all dead Apple electronics and recycle them at a specific standard.
That's a wildly malformed market too.

You have a lot of oddities in the mechanical keyboard hobby.

* For a while there was a lot of rebranding. Three or four of the most popular boards a few years ago were fundamentally the same Costar CST-104 with different logos.

* Some of the legacy players (Cherry and Unicomp) were bankrolled by sales outside the enthusiast market.

* There's a huge number of hobby projects that overlap heavily. A million "40/60% with an aluminium case and takes MX switches" kits. I suspect this offers poor economies of scale and the ability to hide large margins.
No, that's the thing. You, like many scientific materialists are asking for some study that shows you causality. The requirements of an IRB make it such that you most likely couldn't study this, and if you can, the timeliness of the study would lag 5-10 years behind usefulness.

You only have to walk around Koreatown now to see this. The people who make the policy that govern lives are not waiting around for the IRP to approve the study. I suggest you attempt to experience the life, or talk to those who have, while waiting for links to studies that prescribe outcomes related to current events.
I should clarify my statement for "new" installs of Windows. Typically older set ups are already running specific configurations where a 32-bit install makes sense and are left alone until the next upgrade cycle.

This PAE patch is more of a bandaid though than a long term solution.
People say this all the time but it isn’t true. Occasionally a package will require manual intervention to update properly. The manual intervention steps are generally pretty easy and documented on the Arch homepage, so if you haven’t updated in a while and are concerned, all you really have to do is check the homepage. But I don’t even do that. I just pacman -Syu and check if it failed. For the past few years this has worked out just fine. Most of the packages, I don’t even have installed, so I hardly ever hit a manual intervention step.

Of course, Debian doesn’t require manual intervention for most updates, but it also isn’t rolling release. If you want packages that are actually recent you have to sit on Sid, which is a lot less stable than Arch. And if you have a Debian machine that’s a couple years old and you want to upgrade it to the latest Debian version? Good luck. Some of that isn’t Debian’s fault, but whereas on Arch major, breaking package changes are rare but irregular, on Debian they tend to hit you simultaneously in one major upgrade. For home machines, I definitely prefer an occasional manual intervention and continuous fixes over major breakages every couple years where I often just give up and reinstall from scratch.

That said I use Arch a lot less nowadays as I’ve moved onto NixOS. Nix is clearly headed somewhere new, though it remains to be seen if the complexity of the approach is actually maintainable.

If I want to make an idiomatic Arch package, it’s usually easy: PKGBUILDs are intuitive and simple. Nix is much the same for most stuff, especially since most of the boilerplate for various build systems has been automated; though for a program as complex as Kubernetes its a nightmare, to be sure. For Dpkg though, it seems like so much complexity, and I don’t think I ever really had a good experience.

And honestly, I have no idea how to make an RPM package anymore.

That and luck are well over 90%, yes. Otherwise the scions of the wealthy would be vastly more prominent in sports with low entry barriers. In practice the most decorated Olympian ever is the son of a police officer and a middle school principal[1]. The best basketball player ever comes from a less distinguished background[2]. College sports specially chosen to be niches to maximize the chance of being a recruited athlete are so competitive the children of hedge fund managers routinely fail to get in that way[3]. The outer extremities of talent distributions are people who are staggeringly talented, hard working and lucky. Then they complete with each other and the ones who win are better than that .

The problem with articles like this—apart from the politically constructed racial category of “Asian”—is that there is no support for anything apart from a lot of narrative and a few anecdotes. Asians have by a good margin the lowest covid death rate of any race, despite being much more likely to live in hard hit urban areas: https://www.apmresearchlab.org/covid/deaths-by-race

The article’s discussion of the “model minority” stereotype is also a clumsy attempt at racialization. The article points to low-income Asian groups like Burmese. But those groups aren’t poor because they’re Asian, they’re poor because they’re economic immigrants and often refugees. Burmese, in particular, are the most recent major Asian immigrant group. 85% of Burmese Americans are first-generation immigrants, while 80% of Japanese Americans are native born. Less than half of Burmese Americans speak English fluently.

But Japanese Americans were also predominantly economic migrants at one point. The important question the article overlooks is income mobility. Asian kids raised in the bottom quantile of income have by far the highest income mobility of any group. 27% will end up in the top quantile by adult hood—almost double the rate for white kids. There is no reason to believe that the Burmese will be any different than say the Vietnamese. Large scale Vietnamese refugee immigration mainly occurred from 1975-2000. As a result, most Vietnamese Americans have been here 20+ years. In that time, Vietnamese Americans have achieved economic parity with whites: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_groups_in_the_U.... So have Laotians and Cambodians, who immigrated, mostly as refugees, around that same time period.

I can’t help but feel like articles like this are an attempt to racialize Asians and make them identify as a marginalized minority group, instead of as individuals who are in the process of achieving upward mobility. Calling the long-standing economic trends a “myth” is borderline deceptive and risky. Clearly something is working. But if you make people think that it isn’t working, you might inadvertently break it.
It's just a nomenclature thing. Genetically your people are more similar to people from Europe then the "asians" the article refers to. The article uses the word "asian" but technically the article is just referring to people who have certain facial features that are similar to people from China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam... etc. You are asian yes, but in terms of facial features you are in a very separate category than the previous countries I mentioned.

I'm not sure what is the proper term here. I've seen the terms "mongoloid" and "oriental" used to refer to my people but I've also seen things written about how these terms are dated and considered to be insulting. I have found no other word to refer to "asians" the way the article refers to "asians."

It's strange that it's so hard to find a term here as there is a very clear cut category here. Whatever... it's just words.

I would respond to your query and say that "mongoloids" have a very different experience with racism in the US than Indian people due to a multitude of factors one of them being that most Indians already know English.

Qualitatively speaking, in the software world Indians are easily dominating that arena over "mongoloids" so it's a completely different experience.

Whatever hardships Indian people are going through would imho warrant a completely separate article to cover that topic.

I'm having difficulty parsing TFA.

"The most stubborn misconception about this population is that its members can be uniformly measured at all. A population of 20 million strong, representing more than 50 distinct ethnic groups, Asian Americans have some of the widest variances in corporate success, education, and income."

OK, so how then do we get a coherent article about the plight of Asian American small-business owners?

Are there not a multitude of experiences?

Or is the article saying there is a common vector e.g. racial discrimination that affects all Asian-American small businesses even though they have diverse resources, experiences, distribution and successes?

Do non-Asian-American small businesses contend with similar headwinds to Asian American small businesses?

I'm not criticising TFA or disputing any data it presents - just trying to get a handle on what it is saying.
