When you can't just "go across the street" from Google that means this is now essentially public infrastructure under private control.

Analogy: Railway ticket vending machine won't charge your card with a ride, gives a generic message saying you're banned due to violations of the ridership agreement.

So, you can maybe take a bus that arrives once a day and takes thrice as much time due to detours, and that's if you're lucky. But if the railway operator is just a private business, then you're basically out of luck.

accept sell you a ticket, say you banned for some obscure reason,
Reusable encapsulated functionality for front end components has existed before in a number of front end frameworks, I can cite Delphi VCL and .NET Winforms as two I'm familiar with. Have a look at how tooltips are implemented in Winforms ..
Nice, I never even knew geyser existed. I've been waiting for some kind of Proxy to allow Bedrock players to join Java servers. Bedrock server software is basically non-existant.

Will do thank you
I think it could work to have a dual time system, with a worldwide time (probably UTC) used when you are trying to coordinate things with people who are not in your general region and a regional time based on sunrise (which I'd put at 6 AM, probably).

Most people would have their clocks/watches/devices display regional time, or both regional and world time.

Things like business hours, school hours, meal times, regional transit schedules, and other things that mostly just involve coordinating with people in the region would use regional time.

For most people in a region, this would allow them to operate on a schedule that involves waking naturally to the brightening morning instead of using an alarm. It would also mean that all of the extra daylight hours that come with the summer would end up at the end of the day, instead of some of them going before you go to work or in more northern places even before you wake up.

Their current terms are public. Those could have changed wildly over the 11 years the company has been active.
Oh yeah, I never even thought about latitudinal time zones! It could be a checkerboard. Or maybe we need diagonal stripes and not vertical stripes. Now I need to plot the isolines of sunrise on the globe... looks like I'm not getting anything done today... thanks! ;) Or I guess we could entrust the Google cloud to keep time and sync all the calendars.

12 hours of sun is a crazy idea, now that's some time smear. It'd be funny to try that in Iceland or Svalbard, where you'd end up with days where 12 hours are divided into 10 minutes... or worse, some days with no hours at all!

The way fixed costs work few people drive enough to make owning two cars for different purposes worth it. The big SUV might be only needed a few times a year, but it is cheaper to pay for it all year long than to also pay for a small car. Rental cars are expensive enough that they are out.

For a while I did make a tiny car and a SUV work, but I had to drive ~100 miles a day for work and even then it just barely worked out.
So what portion of the US Defense budget then is doing good for Nato, world-peace and avoiding WWIII? We rules out the spendings in the Middle East then? If you do not support the most obvious and on-going wars - how can you trust your government that they do the right thing?

I’m at a loss here. I keep hearing you say that others push the envelope and the US constantly prevents WWIII... But then again - they are the only ones constantly at war and nobody knows why.

Sanders is a Democrat for all practical purposes. He caucuses with Democrats and his voter base is Democrats.

The Republicans have not been absurdly successful in an democratic support sense. over the past 25 yesrs, they've steadily increase their reliance on electoral college bias, voter suppression, and a Republican judiciary. When the party's success depends on Supreme Court decisions made by a previous President they helped get installed by the Supreme Court overruling the voters, they are on very thin ice democratically.

Republicans haven't won the popular vote for a non-incumbent since 1988, or 1980 if you consider VP GHW Bush as an incumbent.
Leaving aside developing countries for a moment; I know, personally, multiple game developers who have switched to using RPi4 and Pinebooks as their personal computing devices.

They hit this sweet spot of just enough power to be useful, yet totally silent (with a Flirc case on the Pi).

The RPi3b just wasn't quite there yet in terms of speed, but the 4 can easily drive dual monitors and provide enough oompf to be useful in a game jam. Quite a nice little device for hobby development.

What dependent types would protect you against would be the parser itself returning data. I think it'd be quite difficult to do this for the case of an email or URL, but for cases like "length values must be non-negative," a parser/validator with a type like

parseLength :: JSON -> Either Error (Sigma (l : Length). lengthToDouble l >= 0.0)

is reasonable, and I'm sure somewhere in the literature there's an indexed monad or something for building parsers/validators out of these, that keeps track of the properties while combining parsers like these.
"Inconclusive" can mean several things. You can get inconclusive results that don't strongly support or refute a particular hypothesis. These should be published. However, a lot of experiments end with "no/bad data" and publishing that is, IMO, often a waste of time.

Suppose you want to see how different types of neurons are distributed in the brain. You hypothesize that two specific subtypes of neurons are always found in close proximity in one condition (brain area, developmental stage, disease vs health, etc), but not another. There are a lot of ways to do this, so you pick one and start.

If things go well, your antibodies selectively label each neuron type. You count the pairs of neurons that are neighbors (or not) in condition A, those that are neighbors (or not) in condition B, and do some stats. If you get this far, I agree it ought to be possible to publish something, regardless of whether the proportions are wildly different, exactly the same, or somewhere in between.

However, things often go wrong. These protocols have a lot of free parameters and it's often not feasible to calculate the best ones from first principles. As a result, you try something and notice that the result is wildly implausible: maybe everything is labelled as one of your cell types, even stuff that isn't neurons. You tweak the protocol, and now nothing is labelled. This is also implausible--the tissue is from a normal animal--so you make some more adjustments and try again. Perhaps you even change techniques altogether and use FISH or a viral vector instead of immunohistochemistry.

The final protocol (if successful) is always included in a paper, but these intermediate failures are usually not and I'm not sure it makes sense to. Suppose the solution was to use a better antibody from a different company. The pilot experiments where we varied the incubation time, sample prep, etc using a dud antibody are fantastically uninteresting. Furthermore, people often change multiple parameters at the same time; going back and convincingly demonstrating which one "matters" would require a lot more work for a fairly limited payoff.

Finally, people also adapt their research question based on the data they can obtain. Maybe you can reliably label one type of neuron, but not the other, so you decide to focus on how those cells' locations vary during development. If so, it'd be weird to report a bunch of failures of an unrelated technique in the resulting paper.
Oh wow I never they had resources. I saw there was an issue on the repo about the same thing but I don't think anything was ever done about it.

Sompani | Software Engineers | Berlin, Germany or REMOTE | https://www.sompani.com

We're hiring Software Engineers to join us in Berlin, Germany, or remote, to help us grow our software with a holistic approach: Back-end, front-end, server infrastructure, testing and continuous delivery pipelines.

Please don't hesitate to write us, we're looking for kind people from different backgrounds and identities to bring in a fresh perspective. We're commited to continue building an inclusive place for you to grow professionally with us. We're a small, friendly group of multicultural (CH, DE, RU, ES, US) startup veterans.

--- ABOUT THE JOB

Our SaaS is used by VCs (Venture Capital firms) and their portfolio companies. They love our products because they help find talent for the companies in which the VCs invest.

Our SaaS architecture is written in strongly typed, modern PHP 7.4, using the Symfony framework. In our CI/CD pipeline, we use, and we contribute to PHPStan and Psalm because they help us write reliable, solid code.

We have another product written in Clojure, because we believe that learning other programming paradigms helps us to grow as developers, independent of the language used.

We love working with PostgreSQL and expose public and private APIs directly through PostgREST because we strongly believe that a server request should be handled within 100-200ms max. Help us optimize queries and learn about EXPLAIN ANALYZE execution plans with us.

We are strong believers in Server Side Rendering, with AJAX requests done by little helpers like Intercooler (now htmx.org) or Turbolinks, added for an interactive Look&Feel.

We help VCs aggregate the jobs postings of their portfolio companies. To make this work, we constalntly have to expand our knowledge about CSS and XPath selectors, web crawling techniques, and headless browser instrumentalization via WebDriver and tools like Selenium.

Our CI/CD pipeline runs on GitLab and deploys our SaaS products after running tests and making sure that no regressions will happen. We run Trunk Based Development in a truly agile fashion: We take the "Kaizen" principle seriously. No heavy-weight processes our hour-long meetings. Promise.

We run rented Linux servers and are experimenting with *BSD because while we run parts of our infrastructure on the AWS and Google Cloud, we understand the tradeoffs of cloud offerings and learned how to operate our own Nginx servers, caches, load balancers, and monitoring tools. Doing all that helps us assess much better when to "roll your own", and when to buy a ready solution. After all, we are engineers and like to tinker, but at the same time we're enterpreneurs, and know when to prioritize.

--- ABOUT YOU

If you feel at home with PHP or Clojure, PostgreSQL and Linux, and maybe even some more of the above technologies, let's talk.

you're already lost in political rhetoric if you fall for the left-right dichotomy. stop thinking of the world as two political poles, as that's exactly when tribalism is most effective on our psyches: one us, one them; us good, them bad. the democrats (and democratic media) are just as complicit in this strategy to maintain power for itself, crowding out any challengers besides its beloved foe, the republicans.

> specially an SoC, that contains DRAM that must get refreshed, IO controllers that must drive peripheral lines with to-spec line voltage, etc.

I'm just nitpicking your otherwise great post here but wouldn't the IO voltages be entirely separate from the core voltage? Or do they all need to be kept within a certain range of each other?
Who should have more power then? Mobs of open carrying "poll watchers" or folks in white hoods? Corporations? Uninformed voters who are easily convinced by targeted FB ads? Old, wise people with nothing to gain or lose?
"No, that's just a thing I can relatively readily point to that gets respected here if you have male bits between your legs but gets roundly dismissed as worthless internet points if you have female bits between your legs."

Sure, whenever anything you say is dismissed, it must be because you are a woman. Not because you didn't provide any evidence at all to make your case. Also, women don't have to provide evidence, I guess, they just know things and have to be believed.
