Based on this, if you are at risk for Alzheimers (your 23andme report shows this), then one of the most important things you can do today is to religiously track your sleep and make sure you get enough deep sleep daily.

In my anecdotal experience, if you don't get enough deep sleep for a sustained period of time, you start showing minor cognitive defects - e.g mixing up words, not being able to write long, irritability. Tracking sleep and 'catching up' makes all this go away.

This is especially important for people who are caffeine sensitive, but drink a lot of caffeine. You end up getting 5-6 hours of sleep nightly, and have this constantly mounting cumulative sleep deficit.
I like gimp. I've used it professionaly forever and just use photoshop tutorials to teach myself. I also use "Glimpse" now for work.
I still think the new (since Catalina) macOS per-app, per-directory permissions is critical to avoid being vulnerable to ransomware. Not everything that runs as my uid should have access to everything my posix permissions allow, especially ~/Documents and such.

Dockerizing every GUI app I run is going to be a pain, otherwise.
Thanks, I definitely might once I tidy things up... though, there isn't much to share. The model is pre-trained on the CNN/Dailymail dataset and hosted on AWS SageMaker (I used the BART tutorial as a reference). Fine-tuned on my own article summaries using the transformers library. The backend is Django/Bootstrap. Really, nothing special except for the fine-tune dataset which took ages to clean.
iirc punishing the French news agencies by messing with their rankings like that also incurs penalties for Google.
No, Blenders look&feel used to be questionable in the past but then version 2.80 happened. They have an amazing UI (backend) now and keep improving.
What was my personal wow moment as a programmer, was seeing that changing the display scale slider in the app properties does actually update the whole UI tree, cascading, rearranging and collapsing things down in realtime.
This is mainly an app design issue...Certify makes cryptography including the question of keys completely transparent to the user.

The user just needs to learns how to perform some simple operations with the app, they never have to know about private/public keys.

This is a very ambitious idea you are pursuing. Do you have any traction with banking?
I am an American in California working as a Project Manager at a small ~30 person eCommerce "engine" startup. One of my new colleagues on the PM team is a very nice Indian girl and she always says "do the needful" in JIRA tickets and in general email communication. Before she joined the team about 2 months ago I never once in my life heard anyone in America say "do the needful". I am American and have lived here my entire life. I always thought the saying was slightly funny and almost "cute" in that no native American English speaker ever describes tasks to be done as being "needful".

Where did that saying come from in India?

This is quite a difficult post to follow. It wasn't really clear what the caution was, other than the ELT movement is a subset of data engineering? I think I agree with the post but I wasn't really sure!
It’s a joke. An ounce is both a unit of volume and weight...or rather two units of weight. The two units of weight are less of an issue when cooking because gold is rarely eaten at all and certainly not in troy ounce quantities.

Sugar is sold by weight but measured by volume when cooking...and not in volumetric ounces but using cups and fractional cups...a cup being eight volumetric ounces.

The nexus between volumetric ounces and avoirdupois ounces is a pint of water is sixteen volumetric ounces and weighs about one avoirdupois pound and an avoirdupois pound weighs sixteen avoirdupois ounces. A roundabout way of sayin “a pint’s a pound the world around.” Obviously empire induces certain conceits.

An advantage of volumetric measuring is using utensils rather than mechanisms. A measuring cup can hold a cracked egg and a scale can’t...which also points out that the variability of eggs and walnuts suggests that gram accuracy is not warranted for ordinary cooking...you probably don’t adjust the weight of flour based on its moisture content.
Great story - but does 1m really move the needle in biomed/covid vaccinations?

If that’s the case then shouldn’t we be seeing a lot more activity? I have seen a carwash funded more so than this.
This is cool, but I feel like this design has come up a few times before and hasn’t really caught on (Volt, Hyperstack). Why is that?
I explicitly pointed out that laws regulating contracts would be fine. That was the second example. The first example made no mention of contracts.

Re DMCA, as you note, there's no requirement to take down content after receiving a notice. You can't be held liable for ignoring a notice. You just lose the safe harbor granted by DMCA for those that choose to comply with such notices.

OP had three distinct laws that I analyzed separately. I feel like you're conflating it into one mega-law and saying that the first amendment doesn't cover everything.

Also, the "reasonable person" standard doesn't sound content neutral to me.
I juggle this kind of stuff in my head, teaspoons, tablespoons, cups, ounces, pints, quarts, gallons; 1/4 inch, 5/16 inch, 7/32nds, foot, yard, mile and...

I bought the first version.

It supports a special version of debian and android. There are third party OSs too, but they don’t have good driver support.

The biggest issue is that tinkerboard uses Malİ GPU and its driver is propriatery.

I bought the tinkerboard as a media device hyped up about x265 capabilities and 192khz/24 bit audio. The x265 playback only worked with the bundled media player, which was buggy.

Software-wise I haven’t been happy, hardware-wise it was better than a raspberry pi.
>A '->' is always a runtime indirection

It's not true if the compiler can figure out that the left side is a constant, consider:

struct foo { int a; };
struct foo z = { 7 };
struct foo *const p = &z;

Then in z->a, no indirection is necessary. GCC -O2 makes this:

int fred() { return p->a; }

fred:
movl z(%rip), %eax
ret

p:
.quad z

z:
.long 7
Even with WordPress the assumption that you pay for it in the future is valid. Albeit anecdotal, I have always needed to rewrite from scratch after first launching on WordPress. But that doesn't have to be a bad thing. Often with tools that help you bootstrap quickly, say ORM's, GraphQL, and in this case PostgREST there comes a time that optimizing or extending is more work than writing a custom build solution. You have to decide if time to market or validating your business model is more important than a potential premature optimization.
It's interesting how old analog audio technology still finds itself useful in these days of terabyte drives and satellite internet.

Some retro computer enthusiasts have taken to storing their programs as MP3 files. That way they can be loaded into a cassette interface using a hand-held voice recorder. Instead of carrying around a suitcase of tapes, you can store everything in the palm of your hand. It's also supposed to help protect against bitrot, but I don't know if that's true. Still, bitrot is a serious concern in retro computing circles because one bad bit in a 10 GB Windows game is probably harmless. But one bad bit in a 10K Apple ][ game will likely ruin it.

Also, I remember when I got my Amazon on-demand ordering buttons, they were set up using an analog modem sort of thing. It's been a long while, but from what I remember, when the buttons arrived, I'd open the Amazon app and tell it I was programming the button, then hold down the button on the button thing and the button and the phone would squawk to each other. It sounded very much like a 300 baud connection, but without the underlying carrier tone — just data.

A friend of mine's showed me this in a code he used for programming an educational operating system. If you have a pointer to a member of a struct, with the macro container_of you can retrieve a pointer to the enclosing struct.

/* Return the offset of 'member' relative to the beginning of a struct type */
#define offsetof(type, member) ((size_t) (&((type*)0)->member))

#define container_of(ptr, type, member) \
((type *)((char *)(ptr) - offsetof(type, member)))

For serious identity variation in paper legal land we don't use signature matching, we use notaries: show id to a trusted 3rd party who can be later dragged into court, sometimes even with an additional witness to vouch for identity.

That threshold has become more realistic as vaccines have taken much less time than usual, but it’s a decent suggestion, and in my view is precisely the kind of conversation decision makers should be having publicly. There are tradeoffs to weigh, and some humility is warranted. Instead, the Oregon governor (at least) specializes in shaming and finger wagging, which I think exacerbates hostility to her proposals.

I can't confirm this is fact, but remember when unemployments systems in NJ couldn't keep up and they were asking for volunteers to help when the pandemic started? The people who worked on such systems were complaining that they were previously laid off to be replaced by contractors.

No, liveview does everything on the server, including holding the frontend state, which is why it's so powerful.

Liveview can't be reproduced in ruby, currently. It might be a possibility once Ractor are there, but even in that case Ruby doesn't have the performance optimizations of elixir templates (and given how liveview works, those are needed).
It might never be possible, or it might be possible in many years.
The best C programming trick is to use no tricks. Making your code as boring and plain as possible greatly reduces bugs and increases productivity.
The ‘cleanup’ variable attribute¹:

__attribute__((cleanup(cleanup_function)))

It allows you to create, in essence, destructors for pure C code.

If I understood correctly, you're saying people don't distrust politics due to rational reasons, they're just generally pissed at the system? That doesn't answer the question. Why are they pissed in the first place? It could perfectly be due to rational reasons.

I wouldn't say it's a distrust of science itself, either. It's a distrust of whatever is presented to you as science.

The first gen had a Mali GPU, and its driver code was propriatery. It caused me a lot of headache in trying to use tinkerboard as a media player.
I have two scales for cooking, one of them a "drug scale"* with hundredth gram resolution. It was as cheap as my kitchen scale. Still, I only use it for modernist ingredients like emulsifiers, where small variations can cause big outcome changes. For a quarter teaspoon yeast, yeah just use the quarter teaspoon.

Measuring by mass has a lot to recommend it, but converting a volumetric recipe to mass is not worth it. It's not as precise a process as you'd like and will still need ad hoc adjustments.

* All scales are drug scales, if you're bold enough
Like with Uber, one of the key features for a long time was there was no way to leave a tip, so there was no awkward question as to whether you should leave a tip. But now they ask for tips so prominently. Am I supposed to leave a tip? Uber is so expensive already, it’s not like adding a tip is something I’m willing to do unless I absolutely have to, like it’s understood I have to at a restaurant. It’s so frustrating.
Yes it makes YouTube free of all ads. Another nice feature is background audio continues to play when youre out of the app. Best £12 month I spend. It’s £15 if you pay via the app so it’s better to subscribe when logged in to YouTube.com
I think you're partly right but I also think there's something a bit deeper at work here.

These days science is viewed as a means to various ends. These ends are all wonderful...eliminate poverty, curtail climate change, cheaper energy, etc. But what's missing is the idea of doing something for the sake of doing it. It's not totally clear what landing on the moon or maintaining a space station really accomplished in terms of material goals. They're glorious accomplishments because of their difficulty.

I think that attitude is what's missing. Listening to JFK's "we will go to the moon" speech is almost unbelievable today. Politicians of either party absolutely cannot talk like that today.
Has any company created a pin-compatible clone of the Raspberry Pi Zero? I've got some projects that use the Zero but the hardware is starting to feel slow.
What cameras do these work with? I'm really hoping for some board of this form factor to support a larger sensor than the Pi HQ camera which isn't that HQ at all.
Are you sure there isn’t more nuance to the situation?

Laudable sentiments indeed. Could you also expound a little on _how_ exactly you expect the parent(s) to "fix their own place"?

Not everyone has to be a revolutionary. It is indeed human to tire of the fight, and equally human to want to live life without having to fight all the way.

It is easy indeed to judge everybody else on the basis of (y)our value system; it is harder to walk a few steps in the other person's shoes.
If we really take election integrity seriously, it should not be the press doing the investigation, or breaking the news, it should be State law enforcement, on the authority of the Secretary of State for that State.

Again, no one wants to take claims of lack of election integrity seriously right now, because everyone is worried about picking up the stain of being some Trump supporter or something.

I don't care who wins, I care they win because the process in all cases happened as planned, and that every accusation of a threat to the integeity of the system gets investigated. No republic can afford the luxury of not doing so. If voting is in question, the very foundation of governmental legitimacy is in question. I want everyone to be able to accept that the results were legitimate and that assertions of lack of integrity were given best effort attempts at investigation and resolution which means bringing everyone to the table, like it or not, and laying it all out for God and Everyone.

Further, to all those up thread who see the Electoral College as a mere formality, that Elector, unless legislation in your State of questionable Federal Constitutionality, has not one reason to abdicate their right to go Faithless. The Faithless Elector is a feature, not a bug, and was never intended by the Founders to be influenced by some external covenant with what at the end of the day is a private, national scale, highly politically motivated organiztion, that in no way whatsoever is connected or a given with regards to the United States. People need to realize how broken the Two-Party system is, and what ills that two party division creates. As long as those two parties believe their survival or continued legitimacy is free from challenge, there is no end to the issues we'll run into.

Finally we are not a democracy. We're a Union of States arranged as a group of Constitutional Republics with a Federal Constitutional Republic with a highly restricted and largely explicitly defined jurisdiction to handle issues of an interstate nature.

The problem I have with Rails is that it's not a complete solution. You can use the generators to scaffold a bunch of stuff but those pages have no CSS and lack basic javascript like dynamically adding a row to a form.

I don't think they need to go all the way to something like react. But a souped up Turbolinks where you can also easily do partial rerendering of pages would be enormously helpful.

The barrier for entry into doing anything is still Rails + Bootstrap/Tailwind + webpack/yarn/npm. Which is a lot more than just whipping some stuff up in rails.
Customers care about the whole package -- the location, the hours, the queue, the decor, the food, the music, the crowd. If they like it, they come back. If not, not. That's a 100% effect.

The manager needs to control all of this. If they hire good waiters, you will enjoy good service. But you can't pick yours, and I don't think what you leave at the end is a particularly big lever for affecting the service you've already had.
Right, and the CVE database doesn't exist either, it is just a conspiracy theory created by those of us against C mythical lack of security.

We see similar results using JuiceFS [1], are glad to see that another player has moved on the same direction with us, since JuiceFS was released to public in 2017, and is available on most of public cloud vendor.

The architect of JuiceFS is simper than HopsFS, it does not have worker nodes (the client access S3 and manage cache directly), and the metadata is stored in highly optimized server (similar to NN in HDFS, can be scaled out by adding more nodes).

JuiceFS provide POSIX client (using FUSE), and Hadoop SDK (in Java), and a S3 gateway (also a WebDAV gateway).

PostgREST has solved n+1 with resource embedding[1] since 2015(maybe a year before Postgraphql/Postgraphile was born). So GraphQL does not pose an inherent advantage over REST for doing this.

TLDR: 5G will replace wifi.

The 5G bulletpoint will become true. Probably sooner than later.

Listening to Horace Dediu (Asymco) alerted me to 5G's impact. (I just didn't care enough, so wasn't paying attention.)

The 5x5 CriticalPath episode recapping the iPhone 12 launch. I don't understand Dediu's analysis well enough to repeat it. But the punchline is Apple put everyone on notice that 5G is the next thing.

The rationale is something about renewed partnerships with carriers, the return of carrier discounts, and giving the 5G guy so much time on the soapbox.

FWIW, I definitely want cell baseband in my future laptops. Using my phone or pad hotspot sucks.
The choice in your example is between $4.40 in income or $5 in income, unless I’m missing something.

Also, above you wrote that someone that doesn’t tip is being subsidized by those who do tip. Isn’t that the same with evading taxes? Why should certain lower paid jobs have to pay taxes and subsidize those in food service because they have the ability to evade taxes?

The incentives get even more screwed up when the tip receivers start advocating against non tipped wages.
Advertising, targeted or not, does not change the general public's ability to agree on facts or not, if indeed that ability exists at all.

If you're going to advocate for restricting free speech (by the state, no less) there had better be a great reason for it, not false claims like this one. It's a critical human right, not to be regulated lightly.

A vague desire for "cultural unity" is insufficient alone to start eroding human rights.
