I’d say the reason nobody has done this before is because of the data quality issue.

Years owned is simply not a measure of a product lifetime. I am not sure where you will get a meaningful lifetime metric from anywhere other than perhaps recyclers.
This is a great piece. If you've just come across this story and are wondering WTF is going on, you should definitely give it a listen!
You can't tell me WW1 or WW2 were actual existential threats on the US. The US had an amazingly superior navy compared to the Third Reich, which was basically only submarines, even after Pearl Harbor.

The US government as a whole did that to make Americans think it was their duty to do that for the government. It was a crock of shit from day one. It was the government looking out for US interests knowing they'd become a major and dominant global player. The only time you'd truly get me to "fight" for this country is if there were actual boots on the ground. We're far more likely to suffer from civil strife again just because even if a full frontal assault were to happen similar to DDay on US territory, our navy would just cut off naval supply lines from any foreign nation. And yes I'm assuming it's an invasion from a world power and not any of the Americas performing it.
Given human survival often relied upon farmed livestock how can you say this? By using this metric for a species's survival nearly nothing should be allowed to live. If you think farming animals is bad wait until you see a Hyena eating the guts out of an animal that is still alive, and will be for most of the meal.
I distantly know some people who work in logistics, and they tell me this already happens more often than you might expect. Example:

Yep, bugged me too. Looked at the js source to see what clicked items I missed. Then guessing the password was a lot easier. Also trying the cheaphash function in the console was a lot faster than entering then keep reentering the username. The hash function result is very length dependent, so it was quite clear how long of a password I was looking for.

I will be interested to see how this scales over time. Most of the world doesn't really care if their meat is cruelty-free (not enough to pay extra for it), but I think they'll move to lab grown meat if it has other benefits. Conventional livestock farming takes a lot of work to ensure that the food supply is safe (sanitation and testing), and I assume that lab grown meat has a natural advantage in this area. I would love if lab grown meat had a guarantee of less bacteria so I could cook my meat less. I would also love it if lab grown meat had customizable texture and fat content. That's stuff I'd pay extra money to have. Once the premium products see wide distribution I assume that a cheaper grade will become available.
I am fully aware that my job as a CRUD API developer has an expiration date and I have no idea what to do about it. At this point, I don't think the onus is on the workers... automation is too widespread and fast to plan.
"You can replace the designer with a developer with design experience. It's very far from impossible."
And go ask why websites are looking the same.
Disclaimer: I am designer (real one). I have become frontend dev with time and moved in this direction naturally driven by challenges in implementation. At first challenge was to move away from table based layouts (xhtlm/separation of content and presentation), next was AJAX,jQuery and now is React, Vue, Angular. In all of this mess I judge the final results. The Product is made to serve the user. In some point in time the incentive moved to "technology serves developers and business" first.

This is the real problem for me. I have found in my practice when hiring designers the problem is lack of proper design foundation, using frameworks and tricks is not design process, its design implementation.

I have suggestion: Obviously developers hate designers (I doubt that they have worked with real one - and reaction towards "designers" is right), do me a favor and eliminate design by building AI solution already. You have ton of historically proven quantitive data what the principles of visually good design are. Just throw it in GAN, use style transfer and do it. You can split test UX and UI and decorate the results with GAN data. Problem solved.

In design space education is broken, business owners and managers don't value design highly so everyone will be happy. Designers will find what to do with their talents, don"t worry:)
If a corrupt government is given power to decide any punishment it pleases for not abiding by its laws, and given the power technical and legal to preclude non-local actors from interfering with its actions, then good luck with your non-compliance. Personally, my experience has been that such circumstances only yield busier gulags, but your mileage may vary.

And I mean really, social policy? So what if people in Mississipi decide they still want slavery or jim crow? Those are binary choices. There is no way to implement your "neither side should have the power to get their preferred laws passed" legislative scheme. What I mean in practice is that you either have slavery, or you do not have slavery. There is no state that a free portion of society can be in where they both have and don't have slavery. At some point, you have to choose. What I'm asking, is what happens when the inevitably corrupt government officials choose to infringe on the freedoms of the citizens? Of course, we hope that they will never make choices that infringe on the freedoms of citizens. But humor me, what happens if they do?
Where are you? Also, are they IPv6 or IPv4 addresses?

In our case yes, China users was successfully connecting to simple Openvpn servers for 2 years.
And we did not do any sophisticated transport all this time.
You didn't mention how old, but I want to re-emphasize putting in the investment now. This problem will only get worse and the joys of parenting a child on a routine are vast
Indeed. IMHO, using a templating library is a very bad idea in the first place[0] - but if you have to glue strings to build markup, then use a regular programming language for that. If you look at popular templating libraries, it's easy to notice how, over time, they all became crappy, Turing-complete programming languages, inferior to just doing <?= ... =?> in PHP.

--

[0] - HTML is a tree serialization format, and templates are assembling it by gluing raw, dumb strings together. It's a recipe for disaster. The equivalent thing in SQL is the source of SQL Injection category of bugs. You really should use a tool that respect the semantics of the language.

Yes, it even has a infrared remote (same as the TV actually with different) labels and pretty good speakers. But alas, cost is high without a deal.
This has been the case for a long time. One of my first jobs was in a fab computing these effects of a new process. That was in 1992.
I would assume that they're using deep packet inspection as weel, but not to fully ban, but simply to slower down users internet when they're using VPN.

Have you tried to measure traffic from your china server while browsing with and without VPN?
Yes, destabilizing regions, ICBM's and Secret Service stuff...a bit like the US but on the other side.

How can they criticize India in Kashmir now if this is their alternative on offer? A greenwashed Internet?
>My argument is, if you actually cared for someone, wouldn't you take the effort to remember everything about them, rather than saving it in a social relationship database?

I mean aren't you going to have to write it down somewhere anyway? Maybe you're not familiar with the world of journaling/notebooks, but people use them (and have been using them) for the same purpose. Before technology, people still wrote information down about the people they cared about.

> Saving your friend's child's birthday in a database just so you can say that you remembered vs actually remembering their birthday

I mean if you're taking the time to write it down I think that demonstrates a level of genuineness. It's not always possible to e.g. have the foresight 3 months in advance to say "ah I can't do that because my friend's child's birthday is then".

>I would rather have 1 genuine relationship, rather than 100 superficial, inauthentic relationships.

I think authenticity has a lot more to do with experiences you have with a person, which is augmented by making sure you're available to spend time with them on important dates, having awareness of their likes and dislikes, and just taking note of general information. I find that, personally, when I take the time to write these things down, I actually keep them in my memory.
I'm not sure why society getting poorer means fewer plumbers and electricians will be needed...

Provided you're not actually talking about poor people just dying off in large numbers, we'll still have roughly the same number of households, which means the same number of sinks to unclog and outlets to wire. I suppose it might be true that fewer people will be able to afford the services of skilled professionals, but that's not at all the same as saying that fewer will be needed...
Problem is that gate design itself changed.
If you’re on the American side the abandoned zoo on Belle isle is really a fun place to explore, to get the full experience be ready to climb up to the walking platform and get dirty.
I see, I am not sure how common that is. Most places you only need 1 Tenant unless your are contracting with Multiple companies but even then you would be set up as a Guest on their tenant not have your own independent user name for each tenant you need access to.

You are correct that Teams today does not support Multi-Tenancy but that is really not an issue for 99.5% of organizations who would only ever have 1 tenant anyway

Teams is structure as

Hi, I work for AWS in the Serverless team.
Yes you can run Api Gateway and Lambda locally for testing.

Is the long covid phenomenon any more pronounced with this virus than any other coronavirus (last I read[0], the answer seems to be 'no')? Since there are four others circulating, will this vaccine even have a significant effect on these post-viral symptoms?

What to do with the winner code?
I haven't had time to really use it. Finished off coding a couple of days ago. I only used it with a bunch of old pytorch projects for testing on Lambda Labs cloud. I plan to use it for training some NLP models, that are too slow for my home GPU setup.

For now, starting servers, copying their ips/hostnames to the configuration files and stopping servers when training finishes seem is tedious. I think I will integrate it to the AWS (and other cloud) api so that you can automate starting and terminating servers.
Good point. The controls need better alignment. I had some trouble with the svg zoom and pan stuff and I was trying to stay away from using too many frameworks so the solution is still a bit buggy.

Taking this to the list of to-dos
I'm old enough to remember when CanCon was brought in to broadcast TV and radio. Lots of business owners whined loudly about having to not import cheap second-hand culture from foreign places and how it cut in to their personal wealth generation capacity. There was a bit of a rough transition (cough Beachcombers cough) but eventually the investment paid off with interest.

I wouldn't resent a cultural development fee. It helps maintain a virtual wall across the southern border to protect our delicate assets.
The problem with this is that then the legitimate ADHD students are then at a disadvantage to the other students, as they can't use the time as effectively as the other students.
This sounds a lot like what OpenBSD malloc has been doing, but via a different mechanism. OpenBSD malloc also tries to avoid handing out the same memory after a free.

algebra does not have this problem. a key idea of functional programming is that it is essentially raw math. it is the for loops and array mutations that have caused the code to not be math and therefore needing 100s of lines to express simple dataflows.
Can you please explain how would this reduce cost? 1TB of egress on EC2 is $90 and on CloudFront is $85. Or are you suggesting to use something like BunnyCDN with $5/TB instead of AWS services?
It would have been impossible to predict the problems with thalidomine by looking at the equivalent report as what is available now for these vaccines.

So looking at it for 20 days isn’t going to help with that. It’s just going to cost 100000 lives.
It seems quite interesting if it's 100% compatible. It has a lot of potential, but then customers may not want to migrates some tools since those tools don't officially support this product.
I meant that they have same attitude like that governor of Kashmir right before 370 was revoked who said who needs Internet anyway and probably have strong opinions about misuse from not ever using it unless told to.
This is why fines should increase for repeat offenders to the point where they quickly become unmaintainable as "cost of doing business". They should also always be higher than the estimated profit generated by the offending behavior.
> In my experience, this is a question of interpretation (see e.g. Recital 26 and the question of what is "reasonably likely").

This is absolutely true. The hard part is that was it "reasonably likely" changes as technology changes. It's entirely possible that a data set that qualifies as anonymous today will not be anonymous in 5 years. Organizations are responsible for the data they publish. If data loses its anonymity in the future due to release of other data sets and/or improved technology, the organization releasing the data will be responsible for the release of personal data, even if it wasn't personal data at the time of release.
It requires some amazing mental gymnastics to call global warming the "result" of going to space. Exploring space has given us plenty of real word benefits, like communication links and weather satellites
Are you suggesting increasing the price for everyone?

You'd remove the incentives to choose one over the other but less people will be able to eat. That's dangerous.

More over, you'd remove the new tech's incentive to become cheaper. I think cheaper food is always better for everyone.

There is a little bit of irony in this.

> Yglesias, turn off the TV! Write more books instead! Heck, write more tweets, if you prefer!

If all the "great minds" stopped watching tv (and by extension reading tweets, reading books, listening to shows...) who would be left to enjoy their work?

We will eventually end up in a state where there will be no longer possible to have a cultural homogeneity as we have today (e.g.: a very sizeable population has seen game of thrones and can discuss it). This approach would bring that moment closer.

You essentially reiterated their first point without really addressing their second point.
I did webdev jobs in that period and I never felt it made sense. The soup of nested tables only got replaced with a soup of nested divs, themselves already breaking the "separation of content and presentation", because many of these divs only existed to hook specific CSS rules of them. HTML markup was driven by limitations of CSS in expressing a particular graphical design of the page that you had in mind.
> Correlation does not imply causation - is there any proof that obamacare is the cause of the increases in costs, or would that have happened anyways?

And even if it did, cost isn't the only measure of success. It's main goal was to increase access to medical care, which I understand it was successful at.
I'm not sure that's entirely accurate. I grew up in small-town America and 30 years ago that was (almost) the image. While the farmers definitely didn't milk the cows by hand, they did attach the apparatus to each cow by hand and check on them. Also had plenty of green pasture for the cows to graze every day.

Source: my best friend in elementary school was a "farm kid" and I thought it was fun to help do chores as a "city kid".

I'm not going to sit here and claim that was EVERY farm 30 years ago, but from what I've seen of the mega-farms it was a HECK of a lot better than what's going on today.
That would be cruel and unethical because it would be very regressive.
So the problem was that users don't know how S3 works?
It's not true that productivity is correlated with purchasing power. This hasn't been true since the 70s. This is true for an economy in general, but not for individuals.
Why would you personally need access to the data unless you actually think the government would allow people to take a dangerous vaccine.
Using a CRM tool like this means generating data that is only usefully formatted when using the tool which makes its long term utility highly dependant on the tools maintainer.
Calendar+contacts+notes are already standards, already very portable, already very mature, we've had gcal running for a decade and a half now. Unless you're intending to completely replace your calendar/contacts/notes somehow it's a net gain in overhead and complexity.
Can't quite tell if this is satire. Like:

"Netflix (and its imitators) produce too many TV shows that are too good—and too easy to binge"

Really? I have to search pretty hard to find any of the original programming from Netflix, Prime, etc, that's "good". There's some, but it's pretty scarce. They seem to be deliberately targeting volume of content to cover the widest variety of niches...not quality.
I hope the author does video games next.

The nerve of people spending their time how they want vs. being constantly productive. It's simply unacceptable.
"The growth medium for the Singapore production line includes foetal bovine serum, which is extracted from foetal blood, but this is largely removed before consumption."

As a vegetarian, I have to wonder who the target market for this is.

Meat substitutes that don't use any animal cells whatsoever have existed for a long time, and many of them are pretty convincing, and even when they're not they often delicious in their own right.

It's cheese that I find to be the last great frontier as far as substitutes go. There just isn't even a remotely passible substitute for many cheeses.
