"Shrinking GDP is very hard to pull off". Isn't that what's happening right now? With govt's carpet bombing their economies through lockdown?
Wow, I wish I had been exposed to this stuff in high school - I had already gotten well into my professional career when I found "Code: the hidden language of computer hardware and software" by Charles Petzold and it was just eureka moment after eureka moment reading that and then building the gates, adders, memory, etc from the diagrams in the book via redstone. One of my favorite learning experiences of all time!
To be clear, the study actually does not show any statistically significant effect of exercise on mortality rate compared to the control group (it shows an improvement, it's just not statistically significant).

The verbatim conclusion they present is:

"This study suggests that combined MICT and HIIT has no effect on all cause mortality compared with recommended physical activity levels. However, we observed a lower all cause mortality trend after HIIT compared with controls and MICT."
That’s the power of... power.

I hear their sense of abandonment, and I want to reach out to them: stop voting for ignorant incompetents.

It's not just the top spot, but all up and down the ticket, those voters repeatedly choose morons. The last four years they've had overwhelming control, and their chosen leaders have done absolutely nothing for them -- except deliver a steady stream of insults, which seems to be all they really want. Their message is clear: given the opportunity, rather than help themselves, what they desire more is to stick it to those urban populations they hate so much.

Every election we go through this hand-wringing cycle of trying to listen harder to them. It's time to turn it around: how about you flyover chuckfucks listen to me for a change? Not the psychotic delusions of me being handed to them by the single solitary news stream they watch (the only one, they're told, that isn't lying to them), but the things I actually say and think.

Maybe then I'll stop referring to them as flyover chucklefucks. But thus far, they've spent so much time convincing themselves that I despise them that they've made themselves right.

I hope I can feel your pain. I just moved to Austin without GF(s)/FWBs, a friend network, or any social media other than anon posting here and there. I am noticing the females here are more receptive per attractiveness and cool factor compared to the relative to the west coast, but not as much as outlying college towns nearby, and that's okay. I'm looking for more than getting eye f'd "lucky" by a Texas Tech or State cheerleader, unless she's also a microbiology postdoc, reads Vonnegut or Nabokov, or welds reclaimed metal art installations. I can't, and never could, stand party people who do nothing by float down the river of time without delving into anything substantially.

The tests are, much like a close friend:

1. Would you die for them?

2. Would you kill for them?

3. Do you trust them with your life?

4. Are you better together than apart? (Are they much more beneficial to you than a liability?)

5. After the 3 year mark, do you still miss them the most of anyone? Must get past New Relationship Energy (NRE) to see if there's more than infatuation holding things together.

6. Hopefully, they're within a standard deviation or two of intelligence and have some common interests, but these can be learned and explored together with open-mindedness and willingness to try the unfamiliar.

7. Develop your skills and lifestyle. People who do the bare minimum to satisfy the label of a database administrator and expect to land a supermodel astronaut are woefully unrealistic. For example, I've been restoring a mid 80's VW camper soup-to-nuts except for major bodywork and upholstery fabrication, getting into paramotoring, and looking at dance studios for ballroom dance with the goals of Viennese waltz, dusting-off Argentine tango, and salsa. And I cook like a m'f'cker, which is probably why I need to lose 40 lbs. / 22 kg. of nasty-ass cutaneous fat, cut calories/do IF/up protein, and hit the gym like corona is going to close it forever. :)

Unfortunately, like hiring or investing, there doesn't seem to be a scalable way of pairing people or due-diligencing them thoroughly enough to lead to trust and compatibility. It seems only with focused filtering and meeting say many hundreds people (as the calibration phase of the optimal search strategy algorithm) that there would be enough worthy opportunities to pursue.

The Machine Learning Behind Hum to Search
Yes, it's a good point. I made a snap response, and was wrong to do so. I just get tired of the ideological nonsense I see so often propogated by a certain group in the tech industry.
Giving a grant to an existing company with a long history of technical excellence and delivering products to build a new product and a factory for it means jobs that don’t go away. A power plant built creates jobs to run it for as long as it exists.

On the other hand All construction jobs are not permanent - they finish building the project and have to move on to the next one, if it is the factory for the power plants, the power plant itself, the next power plant, or something else.

18 million pounds is a lot of money, but it’s a pittance compared to what tech companies are raising from VCs. In relation to the size of tech companies and the size of investments in them, 6000 jobs and the kick start to an industry for 18 million pounds seems like a bargain to me.

Judge dismisses Apple’s “theft” claims in Epic Games lawsuit
Thanks for the inside scoop! Not surprisingly the line between Level 3 and Level 4 is fuzzier than I had in my mental model. I view your first example as a Level 4 capability -- AFAICT, stopping to let a human take over is acceptable for Level 4 vehicles. The other two are interesting.

Perhaps we would call the system you worked on "high level 3", and Tesla type systems where you have to be able to take over in milliseconds as "low level 3". Marketing departments would be tempted to call your system level 4.
I was about to link a related news article I recently read, but realised it was the same study (done by my alma mater). One thing it also found was that they had a better quality of life, and those training together ended up being fond of the time spent together with new friends.

The 4x4 protocol btw is a staple in Norwegian training, at all levels. 4x4 and "fartlek" and you are soon an elite athlete is almost the mantra.
Okay seems like nobody is RTFA...

The average age of participants in the study was over 70, so these findings apply only to the elderly. And the conclusion is not that “exercise is good”; the authors were actually trying to figure out if HIIT or moderate exercise was better. TLDR: HIIT is better

DNSSEC is mentioned in the FAQ [1]. Short answer: if DNSSEC is implemented strictly, it seemingly gets you most of the way there. Not clear if a configuration change or update to the protocol could completely mitigate the attack.

BTW, there are nearly 13 million DNSSEC signed zones; the trend is certainly up [2].

Does DNSSEC mitigate the attack?

Yes and no, the server must implement strict DNSSEC check (i.e., refuse the responses that break the trust chain) to prevent the off-path attacks. However, since DNSSEC is still under development and servers need to accept such responses (i.e., only DNSSEC aware but not DNSSEC validate) when visiting a misconfigured domain.

I have been following the Creators/Passion Economy for the last few months. I think in the next few years, we will see a lot of development & potentially many unicorns in this field.

Creators economy has a lot of potential to improve the quality of life for many talented people living in both rich and poor countries. One of the main reasons why this kind of economy will take off because it lets people scale their skills, client base, reputation, & income exponentially. And of course, the freedom to do what people love .

I saw this as an opportunity to build a startup around, so my team has created a project called www.heywith.com (currently in early access), a paid video Q&A platform with the vision to help people turn their knowledge into wealth.

While doing market research to learn, we have prepared a list of small & big companies that are doing a great job building unique and useful tools for creators to monetize their fans/followers.

We thought of sharing this list with you, so you can also discover some of these new websites to monetize your existing social media audience.

List contains the following things:
-Individual pages of companies with pricing details and ideal fit.
-20+ categories like online communities, livestreaming, 1-on-1 coaching, newsletter, and more.
-Downloadable Airtable list to Sort, Filter, & Search data.

Please feel free to share your feedback in comments, upvote, or submit websites/tools that we missed.

Recessions are defined reductions in economic activity, usually detected by GDP shrinking. Not by the stock market shrinking.

One would hope that the stock market reflected actual economic activity, but that doesn't really seem to be the case anymore.

Isn't that the clone that's using bing results and public subsidies to pretend it's a EU unicorn and gather support from nationalists?

Sorry if it's rude, but that's my take on it - a public subsidies scam. The hatred for US companies in the EU can't justify everything.
Two things that stuck out to me after reading the abstract:

* The control group wasn't "no exercise." It was "follow national guidelines for physical activity."

* Median age of study participants was 72.8 years.

Because of this, I'm not sure what this study actually means, other than "grandma should get more exercise." I suppose this is a fine study design, if you specifically want to study senior citizens, but it would be nice to have a much longer-term study on younger people.
Wow what a disappointing result. Perhaps underpowered to detect what may only be a small change.

Also perhaps some selection bias in that the participants that sign up for an Exercise Study may already be pretty fit. And we see some of that in the baseline characteristics.

You need a sandbox but I don't think web-browser sandboxes are designed for your use case, when the web application doesn't trust its own code.

Considering the constraints I would experiment with a virtual machine. It can use your own set of instructions, like high level domain specific instructions in a json, or something lower level like a simple assembly.

You could use qemu in WebAssembly in a webworker and hope for no vm escape hack. Or a lua interpreter implemented in javascript.

I recently watched a BBC Horizon documentary called "The truth about exercise" [1]. It argues that people do not respond the same way to exercise and that even 3 minutes of HIIT per week can make a significant difference.
It features a research by Dr. Jamie Timmons which he presents here[2].

Yep, from the article: "Control participants chose to perform more of their physical activity as HIIT than the physical activity undertaken by participants in the MICT group. This meant that the controls achieved an exercise dose at an intensity between the MICT and HIIT groups."

This is interesting, but, as a practical attack:

1. Attacks on forwarders are neutralized by things like DoH, and it's not clear how generalizable their results are (it's not clear whether they need insider collaboration to pull off the attacks).

2. It appears to be possible to defeat attacks on the major public DNS caches with just slight tweaks to ICMP unreachable messages. Like, couldn't you just drop a random ICMP packet or two within the rate window and completely jank this attack up?

My cat almost never wants to go outside. She also isn't allowed outside. So is she captive or not? What if I let her out? She's still my pet and while I love her, she's captive.

Do you know how your brain works? I mean, in detail. No you do not, and you cannot. Nothing can truly understand itself. Even if the brain is composed of higher level "computation units" and you can understand how those units are linked you still don't really how those black boxes work. Even if you understand how one of those black boxes work, you can't really know the details of how they all work because if you did you would need a second brain to hold it all.

So, its fine that we don't understand in detail what every artificial neuron firing means....

Spock tests must be written in Groovy, but they can call helpers from any JVM language, so we normally have lots of test helpers (traits) which we use to write tests with one-liners per action/assertion.

If you write your app in any JVM language, you can use Spock to t test it because Groovy really has excellent interop with Java, hence JVM languages in general.

> Control participants chose to perform more of their physical activity as HIIT than the physical activity undertaken by participants in the MICT group.

The implications of allowing the control group to self-select their activities from the guidelines.

I wonder if they would have biased toward the HIIT activities (perceiving them to be better) simply because they were participating in the study. Would the outcome have been different if they were asked to maintain their existing activity levels or somehow replicate the normal activity mix of people following the guidance. Otherwise, it seems more useful to focus on the difference between the HIIT and MICT groups.

"wasn't as prominent or included in the framework itself"

There was no built-in DI container before, you had to use your own like Windsor/Autofac/Ninject/etc, and it wasn't as popular because of it as many people skipped it for smaller/less enterprise projects. I'd say exposing more people do it, even if the built-in DI is rather basic, helped improve many new projects that otherwise might not have chosen to do so.
