Interesting. Sumatriptan makes me really loopy and slurs my speech. It can also make my jaw ache really bad, which is usually a sign it's working (it has about a 50% success rate for me). I often think that it works by moving the pain from my brain into my jaw.

I never really feel great after taking it, but I'll happily deal with the effects over a migraine any day.
Great link. So a GDP deflator corrects for what our current equilibrium would have cost back then, while the CPI deflator corrects for what our equilibrium from back then would cost now?
I've heard this making people a lot slower in reaction times and just general reasoning.

I've definitely seen those side effects in my mom.
Gah, that really rankles me. Is it too much to ask to have an obvious keystore that allows the user to decide what signatures to trust? Ideally self-compiled binaries could be self-signed and still protect from attacker supplied binaries.
Trees outside were moving in the wind. Wasn't clear to me when the effect stopped...

This is crazy. Feels like it was revealed that my brain is no different than the AIs creating trippy art that Google made a while back. They just had a longer stare
What I do actually like about this is that it has no microphone. It's impossible to find a decent webcam without a microphone.
We didn't know about that workaround at the time, we just needed to get our app back online.
if we’re being pithy, i feel like signaling “i’m woke” would be more apt.
One of the few things I was truly amazed by when doing some C++ courses during university. Contrived OOP or extremely cumbersome string manipulation wasn't really my thing. But being able to have compile time evaluation of pretty complicated functions without using macros or anything was so cool. Actually thought about wanting it yesterday in Go
I'm pleasantly surprised that California's firearm law is so strong, that issuing a few concealed carry permits would be even on the radar of the executive team. Contrast that to the stress I felt knowing a Best Buy coworker (several years ago) carried a gun on him during Black Friday sales!
As image recognition of objects seems pretty far on, I'd like to block all images of pets ... sorry, I don't care about your pets.

Seems doable.
GNU is bigger than RMS. Consider the fact that he’s getting on in his years - do you think that GNU will just fold when he’s no longer with us? Of course not, he’s the founder but it doesn’t stand and fall on his name. You’re suggesting the equivalent of “if you don’t like it just fork it” - which is usually to splinter and fade into obscurity. Many in the GNU community felt the same as the Guix maintainers.

Even RMS never suggested they leave the GNU Project (to my knowledge) - and why would he? Guix and Guile are two of the most vital projects in GNU, and the maintainers, both in their capacity as individuals and maintainers of a GNU project, are entitled to espouse their own views. So, if RMS himself didn’t even think they should pack up and leave, taking a crucial aspect of a GNU operating system with them (besides Debian which isn’t part of the GNU projects, how many other GNU operating systems run Linux-libre or Hurd natively?), what makes you think it’s a good idea?
In terms of spatial geometry, it's more similar to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manifold_Garden.
I always imagine people like this in a situation like: what if a business need comes across for a desktop, a website, mobile apps, fully responsive, theme-able, animated.

You have 1 week.

I'm not big on web technology du jour so despite my years of experience not sure I can... but I bet you a random bootcamp graduate who couldn't tell you what a TCP packet is could do it!

And there's the fact they don't know how TCP works and their solution takes 100x the RAM to do a simple task than a native app apparently isn't stopping similar apps from doing X million AAR...

It's hyperbole, but in the opposite way of "it's just 10 lists".

These programs you see don't exist in a vacuum. The requirements you see before your eyes are the tip of the iceberg.
That is an extremely good point - I grabbed that article because I was just looking for a source. In retrospect I shouldn’t have trusted CNBC.

I believe the data is based off the Hiscox report [1], which makes the extremely important point that 85% of losses are due to employees at the managerial level or above - who are of course far less likely to be victims of wage theft! So this “eye for an eye” mentality is truly gross, beyond just the ways where it’s self-evidently gross.

if you truly want to save some $$$, host it on your residential line and proxy the requests through an external load balancer.

could also rope your friends/family into it if you want your app to be "distributed", might require a lot of work though especially if they are not very technology oriented.
Locking out other OSes isn't a main goal of Pluton (although technically it can), there are just too many issues (hey Infineon, Intel and Qualcomm I am looking at you) with existing dTPM and fTPM implementations.
Dumb quantitative approach may work for some. Views and subscribers counts are close to irrelevant IMO when it comes to niche or expert subjects. Freshness is irrelevant for woodworking.

I would prefer saved searches. But YouTube doesn’t seem to index the auto generated subtitles.
I'm thinking maybe an extension where when you sign up, it asks: "what do you NOT want to see", and then for all topics you pick it will block videos on those.

Kind of like when you sign up for Twitter or Medium, it asks you for topics of interest - here it would do the inverse
I am always thankful to see something open sourced.

But as someone interested in understanding how it works without a lot of time on my hands, I would have loved a high level explanation to support a "genuine windows of interest".

As is, I will not be able to extract much knowledge from it.
Keep in mind that’s employee losses, not shoplifting, so it includes corrupt expense reports, embezzling retirement funds, etc.
If you want a masterclass in moral game design, then you can't do better than Brenda Romero's game Trains[1].

You are unlikely ever to get to play this game (it is more art piece, than game), but there are spoilers below and in the linked article which render the game unplayable.

In short, this board game has you managing the logistics of moving a large number of people by train. As you play the game you slowly realise that the destination is Aushwitz, and each meeple represents 100,000 Jews. The entire game is built around this moment of realisation that you have been complicit in genocide.

Another example, which I've never been able to rediscover (and would be grateful to anyone who remembers is) was a small videogame which simply presented you as a firing squad facing a condemned person. You knew nothing about what they had done, or if they were guilty. You were simply given the option to execute them or not.

If you executed them, then this was written to the windows registry and would even persist afteer reinstalling. The choice you made was permenant, rather than being ultimately inconsequential as in every other video game.

Another great example, was Moiria[2], was a very basic looking 3D game where you started in a village and explored a mine, chatting to people as you went. As you went into the mine to find a missing person, you would encounter a stranger leaving covered in blood. After a conversation with them, you would have a choice to let them go, or kill them in retribution for the assumed murder of the missing person. At the bottom of the mine you would find the missing person having attempted suicide and beyond rescuing. Upon leaving the mine you would encounter someone else entering the mine to find the missing person, adn would be prompted to give your answers to their questions to explain yourself. At this point you would realise that the answers you saw on your way in were the answers of the person who played before you, and your answers would be presented to the next player.

You had misjudged, not a computer character, or a prewritten plot, but your own actions.

Unfortunately, as with anything on the internet with a text box, it quickly succumbed to griefing and was taken offline. But the moment of realisation was extremely powerful.

What I'm getting at is that you're wrong to think about how to tack moral consequence onto an existing game loop that denies it. If you sell a commercial game on a game loop - shoot more people, conquer more land, whatever. Then anything tacked on that says "You shouldnt be doing the thing you paid £50 to spend many hours enjoying" is going to fall flat as you describe. Even CoD4 mentioned in other comments didn't judge you for shooting ~people~ it judged you for shooting these particular people. You still got to enjoy the shooting you'd paid your money for in every other level.

Moral ambiguity really needs to be baked into the core of the game and the associated game-loops, reward systems and framing.

> That you bring up a robbery example highlights that you don't understand what political is. Facilitating a robbery is illegal. Facilitating actions of a political group, as long as it is within the framework of a law, is called "living in a society." Your second example reduces to the following: "is it legal to sell materials to facilitate lethal injections?" If no, then it is a matter of criminal justice, not politics. If yes, the political actor is the group committing the lethal injections, not the group selling materials.

Actually, I'm pretty sure it's you who doesn't have a very good definition of politics. My sense is that you understand it to basically be whatever's covered in the politics section of a newspaper, and maybe a few hot-button issues besides.

Also, what you're saying is contradictory. For instance, you're treating "legality" and "politics" as different things, when the law is itself a creature of politics.

You also misunderstood my point. You seem to be thinking that commerce is neutral, and the market transactions somehow insulate the participants from each other, but that's just not the case. A market transaction can facilitate an immoral action, which in some cases may be legal and other cases not. This is well understood, and in the case of illegal immoral actions is even punishable. The only thing that I think could be actually insulating in a transaction is a lack of knowledge by one party of what the other party plans.

> The kind of extreme "guilt by association" you derive cannot be considered a part of the political in terms of conscious action precisely because "the political" encompasses normal function of the society.

Society is political, full stop.

> In other words what you're doing is you are criminalizing normal para-political association---a characteristic of individuals with a totalitarian mindset. As a non-American, I have to say I am stunned to observe this attitude in the US.

Oh please, I wasn't talking about criminalizing anything that wasn't already criminal. I'm kinda stunned that you managed to talk yourself into that bizarre conclusion. My second example is literally this: https://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/14/us/pfizer-execution-drugs....
Same here, but with Android. Since at least a few major versions back!
There is such a thing as atomic tourism, visiting Cold War nuclear-related sites.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_tourism

Is there/will there be the equivalent “silicon tourism” in the US?
Firefighter/EMT here. Our department has trained on hybrids (don't cut the big orange cable!)[0] but not electric per se. Doesn't matter. Unless there's someone in the car, we're going to stand back, let it burn, and keep it from spreading.

Cars contain bigger hazards than batteries: Airbags are basically bombs, and gas lifters (the things that make the hatchback open smoothly) can become missles in a fire. And that bit about cyanide? Ha! When your sofa catches on fire it releases cyanide. That's why we wear positive pressure SCBAs.

[0] We typically cut battery cables on conventional cars to lessen the danger of an airbag exploding in our face during a rescue.
Yes. People driving kill thousands of pedestrians every year.

People act like “but cars kill more people!” is an argument in favor of whatever dangerous thing they’re talking about, not an argument against the way cars and roads are designed and operated.
Ignoring their conclusion aboutwhat they think it was, it's interesting that _something_ happened in 1971, personally I think it's more likely the opening of trade with china than going off the gold standard. It does a good job of showing the sheer broadness of the effect on American society.
Because the researchers bought the products from Amazon.
Not many, but it's a growing market. Much of the Windows-on-ARM market is Qualcomm SoCs.
This has nothing to do with this being a Chinese device, and everything to do with it being a low cost consumer device.

The incentives for quality code here are incredibly weak, and the incentives for caring about security are basically zero. What damage does this vulnerability cause to Jetstream as a brand? It's not like they're going to lose many sales from people who read tech news sites.

If you need to get something working at the cheapest price point possible, you cut all the corners you can - especially in the ways that don't manifest until outside the return period. Paying senior developers and doing external code audits are luxuries you can't really afford.
1. Is this specific to Azure Sphere CPUs? Or are general purpose intel CPUs going to have this capability.

2. If the latter, "Every piece of software on an Azure Sphere device must be signed by Microsoft." what does the OS interface look like?
I agree, FWIW.
A lot of it is precision and scale.

Without coke (the coal product) how would you bootstrap large steel production? Electric furnaces exist but use a lot of energy.

Without steel and the loss of knowledge on mass producing precision equipment, we lose most of modern medicine's advancements.
Its a well known hr/ir labor law term.
We did? I mean salaries in finance from the 80s on were much higher than in the 60s. They went from being some kind of accountants to being masters of the universe.

And incomes of people near the top, in all fields, increased relative to the median too.
BiggerPicture 1.3.0 fully supports Apple Silicon
I haven't been following Jailbreak news for a while, because I'm very happy with my Jailbroken iOS 12 setup and I feel no desire to upgrade anything. Even so, looking at this project, I can't help but recognize some names among the primary developers.

I don't even remember what all the drama was about—as I recall, it was exceedingly stupid—but I know it was nasty enough to drive Saurik and much of the rest of the old guard away from the Jailbreak community for good. I really, really hope that ugliness is behind us. The Jailbreaking scene could use everyone's talent.
One of my firefighter friends says they're a little fearful of using the jaws of life on electric vehicles since cutting through a high-voltage electrical cable would be disastrous. Luckily there are so few models right now they can memorize no-go places, but obviously this can't be counted on forever.

I think the color cycling (doesn't pause) might play a role also.

One of the things that sucked about working for Intel is that you just knew you were working for a company that had the institutional personality of a complete raging arsehole. HR people would explain to you that whilst yes, those floating point units did demonstrably produce the wrong answers, Intel as an organisation doesn't accept that it did anything wrong, customer expectations were simply misplaced.

Geopolitically Intel is probably going to need to get bailed out, but it's a toxic company that could do with disappearing. I won't be mourning their Sales & Marketing teams.
Two things:

* It's not his project

* The Guix maintainers care about the GNU project and don't want to see it continue its slow fade into irrelevance
Yes. WFH contracts can have royalties, and it's my understanding that Marvel and DC's WFH contracts all have royalty-like provisions, because their authors and artists are generally providing significant new/creative IP, but the royalties in those contracts are simply royalty-like payments that they call "participation" because they're not legally royalties. They're similar, but similar is not same. Royalty-like payments do not have the same legal force that royalties; they're enforced through the normal means of resolving contract disputes rather than through the application of copyright law.

It's extremely rare for WFH novelizations of movies to provide for royalties, because authors of novelizations are generally not creating significant (if any) new creative IP; in most cases, they're simply converting a script to prose format.

ADF might have such terms in his contract, since movie studios were more generous about these things back then, but he's had the power to show us this part of his contract for almost a week now and he's chosen not to. Nor, for that matter, has the SFWA, which has similarly had access to at least one of those contracts.
When I started my MBA I was recommended The Craft of Research as a good book to help me write better. I relied on it a lot. Later I started using The So What Strategy which I refer to regularly as a consultant.

I also spent some time setting up my writing workflow. For me that was Markdown supported by Zotero (now Jurism) for references and Pandoc to generate a PDF for submission. But that workflow reflects my nerdy UNIX origin story and isn't suitable for everyone. My wife uses Google Docs with Zotero quite happily.
This won't stop Whispernet-style LTE communications.
Yes, that’s what I was thinking. And it makes his description of his heroines as a shade of pink into a play on words, shifing the meaning from good and evil to refer to the colors literally.
Makes sense, ads are payed per impression, so if a company soaks away more impressions that don't lead to actions then that means more revenue. I guess the trick is to make sure your still - only just - the best cpm around.
I just replaced all my blinds with Somfy motors as well (project of last weekend).

My plan is to do something similar except I plan to use a small board with a small microcontroller (probably a STM8) to send the radio frames to the motor controllers.

It feels great to have a full home automation system that doesn't rely on any cloud technology. It's more secure and I'm sure that no product will lock me out of usage when they EOL.

I'm quite excited about this. I think it will lead to a reduction in "brain drain" here in the American South. Always bummed me out that the top college graduates tend to end up moving away to CA or NYC. Now they can still have those great jobs and contribute to their home or chosen states' economies.
Certain ideas (perspectives on reality, even though they are accurate) are not acceptable here

I'm so controversial on so many axes that I simply don't care that some of my opinions don't play well here and I've largely stopped talking about certain things here.

Like vaccines. No matter what I say, both pro-vaxxers and anti-vaxxers are equally hateful. And I feel it's not super important and it's just something I rarely talk about anymore.

Anyway, this is real off topic and I am feeling like you just don't really understand me or something on this topic and it's not important, really, for you in specific to understand every little thing I say.

I don't intend to continue this discussion.

Have a great day.
I think emitted light from monitors and displays causes more eye strain than reflected light, as people tend to have their monitors set too bright and with a colour temperature that is contrasted to the ambience of the room. Whereas compared to reflected light, the reflected light is always as the same intensity and colour temperature as ambient light, thus reducing strain as the contrast is lower.

Thus, my recommendation is to set monitor brightness and colour temperature to match the ambient lighting conditions. I have no data to support this, other than my own personal comfort. I also suffer from eye floaters, so I use dark colour schemes to reduce contrast so I notice them less. A downside to this is that text can appear to be more fuzzy if you suffer from astigmatism.
While the event took place with a Spanish company, are European-wide regulators not more stringent?
Getting personal huh?

I feel, you are under the influence of moronism. You just cannot see the bigger picture and connect the dots. Even though it’s right in front of your face.

If the British and Americans did not do what they did in the 1840s, then do you think someone like Mao would’ve come into power in the 1900s?

Were you also aware that China was under heavy sanctions from the United States, Australia, and the rest of the world after the CPC came into power? They could not buy food from abroad, since the white countries wanted to starve them to death. They could not trade to make money from their commodities. The ultimate goal of the white western nations was to starve China (but let’s not talk about any of that, because that would disrupt our brainwashing of the masses).

The British subsequently killed more people than Mao, because they set into motion a series of disastrous events.

Did you even realize China had a civil war in the 1850s, because of the British?

But of course, let’s ignore everything else, and focus our attention on Mao, since he’s an easy target. And forget about everything else that led up to him.
we don't have a two different colleagues problem...

> There's no winning with IoT.

There's no winning when a third party controls the lowest-level software of a thing on the internet. That includes your general purpose computers.

Unless you are the owner of the signing keys down to the bottom of the stack, your system can be remote-controlled.
There is a huge shift right now to larger residences with more space. I expect that once city amenities are available again (post vaccine), this balance will steer closer towards the pre-COVID mean.

That, and most folks I've seen online seem to be in the "remote is the future!!", "people will leave tech cities behind!!" route. But these, like most reactions right after a major event, are probably overblown.

We won't have everyone going to the office 5 days a week anymore, and satellite offices in 2nd and 3rd tier cities / rural areas will become more common. This was already the trend before COVID. But that doesn't mean that 50+% of engineers in top companies will be full remote in 5 years, people leave big cities permanently, and city housing price crater.
EA Giving Tuesday – Donation matching initiative
This fails to load for me
I've done a lot with Lambda, but only with node and go. I've never hit the problem you found -- perhaps translating to another language would work? I've heard that a lot of pythonistas like go, and it doesn't look like you're doing anything too difficult, so it should be possible.
This was a very smart cold blooded strategy. They didn't need to do anything at this point because within a few days after the launch there were plenty of reviews to confirm they had the best high-end CPUs. They knew they were winning.
