Does anyone know if ibuprofen is risky with sustained, long-term usage of the recommended dose? I have a relative who uses it habitually, and I can’t help but worry.

It seems safer than Tylenol, but I don’t understand why it would be safer.

They recently had a toothache, and they took 4 right away and more several hours later. When I expressed concern, they said the doctor told them to go ahead and take 4 immediately when in severe pain. But it feels like more and more studies and anecdata are casting suspicions on Tylenol, so I wanted to ask if anyone knew the central reason why ibuprofen might be safe in comparison.
Would someone inclined to downvote the parent comment explain why?

Fast forward one year to see the posts about how much time this saved Company X, and then fast forward one more year to the posts about time saved after removing RBS.

The killer is literally the first highlighted piece of text in the article:

I mean just let that sink in. This isn't going to work.
Assuming for a moment that your comment is not sarcasm, I point you to first the excellent book “Hitler’s Willing Executioners” by Daniel Goldhagen which makes a solid case that had it not been for a compliant German citizenry, much of the Holocaust might never have happened.

Do you have one? From what I've seen people seem to think the hardware is solid but the software is rather lacking.
They can prevent that if they want to (there are tons of admin software to prevent users from install unapproved software on windows) so it really is a nonissue. The main issue is extra space, but that also isn't that big of an issue if the app is written well for updates and I don't know why that would be any more or less efficient when installed by "user" vs "admin"
I am guessing this is exactly why, otherwise why would any sane group of people come up with this idea?

And if that's the case... why why WHY even try to do it this way?! Feels like a VERY forced pushing of a square peg into a non-existent hole.
But I don’t even need to look it up to know that they made absolutely sure to get credit for every single bombing. Why is that missing here?
> ignoring minor wounds on a regular basis and then finding them later

In my experience that's pretty common, especially among guys. It's a running joke with my wife that I'll be leaking blood without even knowing I cut myself. Or I know, and just don't really care. Several of my friends are similar. It does lead to awkward explanations sometimes. My wife still doesn't really understand how I can have a great big scabbed over wound or a nice big purple bruise with not the faintest idea when/where I did it.

I wouldn't say I'm low on empathy, either. But I hide it pretty well, bury it quite deep.
Sounds pretty good to me. If I'm searching for a term, but don't want results from pintrest, then I'm probably not wanting to read an article about pintrest either.
The German government recently updated its estimate for the societal costs of putting a ton of CO2 into the atmosphere to 195 euros (up from 180 euros a few years ago).
The issue with it is that people unknowingly take does. You may pop a Tylenol for a fever, then take it again in your NyQuil and not realize it.

It’s a well tested and safe drug. Both aspirin and ibuprofen have significant risks if used daily. Aspirin causes stomach bleeding, and ibuprofen causes significant kidney issues over time.
> Its not about _enjoying_ power

Not what I said and not the point (or not the point I was making -- it was a tangent from the main thread). However they might personally feel about it, landlords _have_ a lot of power. Some of them use that power to break the law without consequence, presumably when it's financially beneficial.

To the rest of your comment, it seems you're conflating service animals (well trained, won't bark all day and night, legally protected, still sometimes banned by unscrupulous landlords) with emotional support animals (undefined training, might bark all day and night, minimal legal protections, often banned even by scrupulous landlords). Is that accurate, or is there something more to your comment that I'm missing?

Kind of an important detail.
Thanks for the interesting response. Glad to hear you're supporting Linux with your plugins!

There is no way for a DAW to choose "what is best" for the user. On Windows the same range of choices exists whether or not any particular DAW offers it to them. ASIO? WASAPI? WaveRT? MME? There's a case to be made for each, depending on circumstances. Only macOS really gets this right. The user can also select "auto-start" for the audio/MIDI I/O backend, which will cause them to no longer be asked which to use each time. This is a reasonable choice if they always use the same computer with the same audio interface. It's not so great if those things change quite a bit.

You're absolutely right that the GUI situation is a mess though. There is no standard graphics API on Linux beside X Window, which is totally unsuitable for direct use in any modern development effort. The desktop toolkits (Qt and GTK etc.) are unsuitable because they cannot be easily statically linked into your plugin, which can then lead to version clashes with whatever the host might use (e.g. your plugin uses QtN, the host uses QtM). There is no good solution to this: we always advise plugin authors to avoid desktop toolkits, and if possible use small standalone statically-linkable GUI toolkits designed for the purpose (PUGL, RobTk and a few others). Alas, even JUCE by default tries to link in some version of Qt (it can be turned off, and should be).

On restarting Ardour, it gives the user the choice of a new session or selecting from a list of recent sessions. I've never heard of anyone suggesting that the correct behavior is "open the last session" and this would differ from the behavior of numerous other creatives applications too. If you start up Inkscape or GIMP (or its derivatives) they will not open the most recent file/project automatically.

> having too many choices in audio software is usually something to combat.

Be sure you let the Reaper devs know this :))
Sorry just to clarify, why would the Boston tea party be terrorists in some eyes? Did they attack civilians for political reasons?
Massive amounts of grain are fed to livestock, and vast acreage is cleared for grazing livestock. If everyone went vegetarian, I'm fairly certain the amount of crops grown and land we use for agriculture would be significantly less. Turning grain into meat is highly inefficient.
That's what I was wondering? It's been around for literally decades. I'm 99.9% linux user now but back in the day runas came in handy on windows for daemons that I would write and test to run in the background as various users or admin.

> I don’t want to come off too harsh

I feel like your original points were kind of ok. But this attitude of superiority & certainty, this conviction that these language features are never the right answer?

> I’m not motivated by fear, I’m motivated by experience.

In my experience, teams & individuals can have a lot of bad sad mad anecdotes they make for themselves. But other people can find & use the same tools & techniques very stably, successfully, & to good effect.

I don't fully believe you, that you have this experience. That you've earned this ability to trash & insult a rather-wide piece of JavaScript & it's use. In a complete & total way, you've said no, that you alone are the only important voice & that you have total knowledge. This isn't only harsh... it's other unfavorable things too.

Meddling with descriptors is absolutely something that can go wrong, and it's very hard to know it really for sure is a good case- often you'd be better without. But there are also many good cases where these techniques & knowledge of them is absolutely divine, enables really nice solutions. If you need to instrument some existing 3rd party objects? Fantastic, absolutely fantastic.

Assuming that we are all of equal value politically and legally, we should first vaccinate those in danger of dying or being damaged from Covid-19. Reason is while some of those NOT in danger of dying from Covid-19 will catch the virus, they will likely survive unscathed.

So it depends on who you believe is "important" and what "importance" means.

As some who is diagnosed with both hyperesthesia [1] and anxiety disorder, it's really funny how your wife is the opposite of my experience. It reminds me of Murakami's Wind-Up Bird Chronicles we experience the same things and lead similar lives yet our senses can be so different to a point where something fatally painful can be so pleasurable to others.

[1] My skin is hypersensitive to pain, to the point sometimes it's very painful to put on clothes. Usually it's manageable with wearing large clothes, but it's worse if I haven't had enough sleep or some allergies (or salty food etc) are causing inflammation.

I think it’s more than taste bud pleasure. Animals are an easy source of protein with a complete amino acid profile. It takes real effort to learn how to eat a vegetarian diet (even one that incorporates eggs and dairy). Excluding eggs and dairy increases the difficulty even further. I’m not ready to be so pithy about it. And I have gone on extended vegan and vegetarian dieting phases due to ethical concerns. It’s hard.

My first instinct is it's people who have a high threshold for pain who don't appreciate being called out for a lack of empathy. But perhaps didn't have a rational defense to jump in and comment.

It would be interesting to hear a response from a downvoter contradicting this instinct.
The pursuit of a public index is excellent.

Some feedback:

- A cost of membership runs contrary to establishing this group, especially at such a high recurring charge.

- I'm not sure what your software/AWS situation looks like, but 20 million robots.txt files acquired from Common Crawl is something I can analyze on my PC. It doesn't seem to presently justify such high costs.

- Prioritize building a mockup index with an intuitive frontend. This is essential for non-technical people to understand

- Exclusively talk with EU legislators (they are motivated, whereas nothing will happen in the US).

Naproxen, ibuprofen, acetaminophen, aspirin are all ototoxic (damaging to hearing), so that is one concern.

I almost never use pain killers, but if I have to reach for one, it will be naproxen. Naproxen is longer-lasting. It has a metabolic half life of as much as 17 hours in the body, compared to just around two hours for those others. This has advantages, one of which is simple economics. One naproxen pill works like 4 consecutive ibuprofens or acetaminophens.

I was prescribed naproxen in the early 1990's, at the University of British Columbia sports medicine clinic for some wrist tendinitis. Stuff worked, so I remembered the name well. I didn't know that just a few years after that, it had become over-the-counter. One day I googled it by name and so it goes.

One down side of naproxen, sort of, is that it's not recommended for children. You will not find a children's naproxen.

No, a lot of AT&T buildings were built as bunkers, well blockhouses, during the Cold War. The typical "reinforced" criteria was being able to handle 2-3psi over pressure and storm force winds (70mph).

This particular building is an old AT&T-cum-BellSouth-cum-AT&T tandem office. It's where end offices (that connected to actual customer phones) would be connected together and connected to inter exchange carriers.

AFAIK AT&T tended to build their tandem offices as reinforced style buildings. They are larger than end offices and needed high availability because they were the central node for a region's telephone network and its connection to other networks.

I don't think I've ever seen any central office in a regular home in a neighborhood. Even end offices, while smaller than tandems, required a lot of equipment and power backups. Besides the equipment in the building they'd usually have secured parking/storage for service vehicles.

Automation and robotics are expensive, yes. Speaking for Ag(what I consider my domain of expertise as opposed to machines or coding), I have no qualms about using expensive Ag automation in place of cheap labour. Even without the exploitation factor, human beings shouldn’t have to do manual labour and sometimes dangerous, dirty and repetitive work.

An example for a small scale farm would be weeding between vegetable rows. An example for a larger scale orchard that is 1000 acres, automation means precision ag(reducing toxic/unnecessary inputs, leading to $ savings, environmental conservation, minimizing collateral damage..like spraying during night time instead of flying crop dusters during night time, supply chain efficiencies and preventing waste.

Some jobs shouldn’t exist at all for human labors regardless of cost of automation.

Money is a man made construct. When we say ‘it would be more expensive to automate’, the statement is an artificial truth.

Otoh, human beings, their health, welfare, habitat, nature and environmental impacts are all real.

I wish to see all low paying manual labours end. Maybe someone will pull a plough to harvest potatoes as a hobby. And that ought to be for fun. Not for our food(essential for life as we can’t synthesize our own food) or for a living wage.

I hope that in my lifetime, our food production goes mostly..if not entirely from human labour to mechanical and robotic automation.

If it costs more, so be it. Money is an IDEA.

Not really, .ts files can have types in the source code. .d.ts lets you type external JS code which is useful for untyped dependencies, as is the case here, I imagine. But within your own project having types be part of the actual declarations is much better.

We all see the naturality that Google developed on search while this is missing on Bing and other search engines.

I can't say with certainty, but I learned the DNA printer makes shorter sequences that then self-assemble into the final strand. So if you have too many repeating AAA's, you can't control if there's 20 or 100 because new AAA sequences will keep latching on to the end of the strand.

So, you break it up every so often with some other nucleotides.

I emit LLVM IR as text in my compiler. It’s painless, almost. Some points off the top of my head…

- I started out just printing strings, but found I wanted a bit more structure so I wrote a dozen or so functions to do the printing. Things at the level of call(name,rags). All make a single line of IR. It helps keep the typos down.

- just run your IR through clang to compile it. It has good enough error messages that you won’t go mad.

- you will need to make a bunch of DI metadata to get debug information into your programs. It took me about 8 hours to get enough that I have line number information and LLDB will show me functions and source lines on a backtrace. I should have done this much earlier than I did. I was getting by with line number comments in my IR, which is simple, but useless if you Give yourself an access violation.

- learn to write little C programs and use clang to emit the IR. This will let you sort out how to do things. The IR manual is good, but there are concepts which are omitted because they were obvious to the authors, but won’t be to you.

- local symbols have to be in strict, ascending, no skipped values numerical order. Screw that. Grab a dollar sign and make your own numeric local-ish symbols and don’t sweat reordering them.

- it doesn’t seem to care what order you emit things in, other than lines in a block of course, so just do what is easy for you.

- get a grip on getelemtptr and phi. The first may not be what you think it is, learn what it is. The second is just part of the magic of SSA.
I don't get it. Is that the impression you're getting from it? You don't have to choose the highest paying field, you just have to choose a field that you like and pays well, and acknowledge that choosing a field you love most might come at the expense of finances in the future.
Yeah, US bottles seem crazy to me, for drugs where overdose is lethal. I think the theory behind the UK pack size restriction is that suicide attempts are often spontaneous, so it's life-saving not to have a lethal amount in the house. Also, accidentally popping hundreds of pills out of the blister packaging (rather than a bottle) is pretty unlikely. The restrictions seem to work, with a 40% reduction in paracetamol-related deaths: https://www.nhs.uk/news/medication/smaller-paracetamol-packs...
