Steel Bite Pro Reviews
The aftereffect of being careless in adhering to those practices can be undesirable teeth and gums. That isn't something to trifle with, in light of the fact that it can prompt contaminations, draining gums, broken or free teeth and the sky is the limit from there. Luckily, there is currently an approach to make keeping up great oral cleanliness somewhat simpler for you, in the event that you are not exactly as persevering as you should be tied in with following your dental specialist's direction. Steel Bite Pro is a blend of all-common fixings figured by long-term analyst Thomas Spears to give individuals a simple, reasonable approach to help the soundness of their gums and teeth.One great approach to show what Steel Bite Pro can accomplish for you is to take a gander at a portion of the significant characteristic fixings in its arrangement.

Kinda with you until "terrible query language" as, in my mind, it's the best query language.

You can also opt our of rigid schema by using JSON columns. Which I generally promote as a new best practice when the database is being uses as a dumb store for a smart application. It comes down to who should be the source of truth for the schema.
That sounds so cool, I'd love to know more about your setup!
I personally refuse to use any contact tracing because an envitible consequence of its adoption is the idea that mass surveillance is legitimate so long as it can be argued it's keeping people safe.

Tech like this is always abused by governments. Just look at how governments are attacking encrypted messaging services today. It would be naive to think same thing wouldn't happen for any popular privacy-first contact tracing app.

I've been writing graphing/charting code off and on for over two decades. My code has been used in high end audio software. Sometimes it's faster and easier to write the simple for loop that draws lines or splines on a canvas than to incorporate a "full-featured" charting library that has to support every kind of chart, plot, graph, network, 2D, 3D, etc. imaginable. A charting library that takes an array and makes lines is not that hard.

And yet I still had a dev get pissed off by my offer to help with a charting problem. "Yeah, but was it D3?"

I'm generally an advocate for buy-before-build in software, but I don't trust the kind of dev who won't even acknowledge that the easy part of a problem is easy (or that true experience isn't framework specific).

If they can be forced to change whatever implementation they have by the government then it helps no one. It’s just giving them more information on top of all their existing data they already have on you.

There is an entire genre of kafkaesque literature, where the whole system is so broken that even top officials synpathetic to your plight cannot help you.

There is 'computer says no' situation where a bank clerk wants to give you a mortgage, but cannot because the computer system flagged something, but wont tell you or him what it is.

This is a well known and understood problem, to argue that it doesnt exist is just to live in denial.
And how would you know if there was a backdoor that allows the government to pull anyone's data? Even if the app is validated by reliable third party in current version, there's no mechanism stopping a malicious update in few months.

Once it's mandatory to have such app it's game over. Doesn't matter what algorithm is being used, doesn't matter who developed it. It's insanely easy to abuse this. The government will simply deny there's any sort of backdoor and gaslight people who say otherwise.
Yes, fire at will is there, on the other hand you have quite potent wrongful termination lawsuits, and a number of hiring quotas which are often enforced.

Singapore is probably the only country which would force a business to hire somebody with clinically severe mental development issues.
I agree. I'm visiting Thailand and the locally developed app requires high precision location permissions, the app is constantly running, and the data is all tied to my passport number. It destroys my battery, and it's a complete privacy invasion.

This is a very general problem for aggregators - time and luck are big factors. Time, because there is new stuff on the front page every day, and luck because with new submissions, only a small amount of people are going to see them, and if that small amount aren't a good fit, then the submission is going nowhere.
Your comment is another example of dismissing what they did without understanding it.

As a result of this we now have less effective, higher privacy risk implementations in place.

Can't wait until few years down we learn this data has been abused to harass political opponents in some way. Or when someone runs experiment to pull everyone's data and use ML to predict crimes (Minority Report style). It's done, we are never escaping the "sanitary" regime (just as we never got back to world pre-2001 despite extensive war on terror).
Well given the phone book was a list of names, addresses, _and numbers_ you could, in fact, do reverse lookups.

That's because at every turn short-term political calculus and keeping the rabid British right-wing press onside took precedence over trifling matters like the country's economy.
I guess it depends. If you don't need concurrency and other stuff Golang is able to do when you are making an asynchronous app then is not necessary, but learning it won't hurt.

Actually, retirement funds only require capital growth in real terms, which means the economy growing faster than inflation, because the principle of a retirement fund is to invest current contributions to pay future pensions.

More workers than pensioners is required when the system works by using current contributions to pay current pensions (which is usually how state pensions work). [Which should also provides some information about how (un)realistic UBI is]
Going merely for HD as recently as 2014 seems like a huge waste.

HD is already 'low definition' 6 years later, as Netflix plans show.

> “ If they can be forced to change whatever implementation they have by the government then it helps no one.”

They can’t be easily forced to change the implementation and their implementation reduces the risk of privacy problems. It’s designed explicitly to be effective without increasing that risk and without giving the government any individual’s information.

It’s worth reading the doc I linked.
We had a lot of other existing technology, like simple face masks, that could have been deployed against the spread of the pandemic as well.

It is almost a case study on how you can't solve problems that are fundamentally social ones by throwing technology (old or new) at the problem.

You're absolutely right that it's a shame.
You cannot have real estate prices that outpace wage growth and a rapidly growing population at the same time for too long. Couple this with increased expectations of what a baseline “good life” is and you get a declining population.
Retirement age cannot be pushed higher much longer, we already have too many too much old people doing _badly_ their work because they are not sharp enough / willing enough / energic enough to do any better (so destroying any productivity value for that position + not allowing access to those well paying jobs to the new generations).

I am in a country which has the s.k. problem since a decade and since then tried to push retirement age over and over with extremely bad results (one of the higher young unemployment rate in the whole eu area).

Add to this that already now losing your job, especially if low-skilled, in your 50ies it's basically a sentence to never find another one and live under unemployment benefit until you get your small state pension.

For my generation (Born 1985-1995) it is already planned we will have to retire minimum at 74yo in the most optimistic situation. I mean, I don't even see myself capable of doing well my work at 65, and probably no one will want to keep me after 60, doesn't matter how sharp I will be. All supposing I am not gonna get pretty sick around that age, which is highly probable.

I'm not sure we're talking about the same things. This article is about booting an operating system from an external disk. How is that going to save anything on the internal hard drive unless you remove the OS from the internal drive and are constantly tethered to that external USB boot disk?
I’ve tried out Apple’s Look Around recently and was impressed with the transition animation compared to Google Maps. If you have an Apple device, try it out in London for instance: Moving past a red telephone box shows how the object kind of retains its shape during the transition. Traffic moving around you also looks quite different compared to Google.
This quote is over 100 years old, “Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don't know which half.”

To more specifically answer your question; I imagine they have some sort of strategy with advertising. A billboard campaign might work. I always see Barracuda ads in airports, but nowhere else. Soap operas are named because soap and consumer products advertised to homemakers during the day. Even when using a broad brush you look for the best use of your money and target your audience.
Apple and Google’s “exposure notification” is less useful in some important ways - it isn’t capable of backtracking to find associated contacts of infections further back in the chain. Bunnie has a good blog post about that here: https://www.bunniestudios.com/blog/?cat=69

Apple and Google’s thing was late to the party too, both Singapore and Australia had published their apps before the in built OS exposure notification because a thing (and I’d ballpark over 90% of Android phones haven’t got OS upgrades available that let them use the Google one anyway, none of my Android devices have it, being stuck with no manufacturer support or locked down by carriers).

So Australia and Singapore pushed on with their non OS native versions of the apps, even though the Bluetooth implementation on iOS made it very unreliable if the app wasn’t running and in the foreground. (The Android version’s Bluetooth is more reliable, if just chews through battery at a very quick pace...)

The end result is almost no useful data has come out of it here: https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2020/dec/15/covid...

Just 20 “close contacts” identified, and the government stalling on freedom of information requests to find out if any active cases were identified from those.
Basically Jack said that the banks are working in 'pawnshop mentality', not using the data collected to evaluate loans. With Ant you can get loans in 10 seconds. He also said the global financial regulation is for countries with financial sector, and China's problem is not about regulation, is about there is nothing to regulate.

The new regulation on P2P financing requires Ant to put 30% of the loans with its own money. I can see from Ant's point of view, their loan is super safe (with all the taobao data and AliPay data collected). Ant group will create a financial entity to put its P2P business under banking regulation.

Another interesting thing is that Ant's loans mostly go to TaoBao sellers (small businesses), with their data, which are super safe from their point of view. The problem is that from regulators' point of view, maybe it is not obvious or it is hard to regulate it with one exception.
What the heck is that? I’m having a very difficult time understanding its message
FYI: the trailing slash is completely useless on HTML tags in the HTML serialisation. It doesn’t close HTML tags, it’s just ignored by the parser for XML compatibility. I advise against including it, because it’s simple visual noise, and misleading (people may come to think they can close tags that way, as in XML; but you can’t, and it’s only valid on empty elements like <meta>, <link> and <img>).
All data is relational. If you think some data model is not relational then you haven't thought about the problem space enough :p

The only valid reasons to choose non-relational databases are scalability and performance.
Much of this (as admitted in the tweet thread) is due to the VAT changes, I don't think it is wise to blame this on Brexit and move on as it ignores the growing problem. The only connection Brexit has to this is timing, these VAT changes are EU wide and will rolled out to EU member states this year. Foreign companies will need to charge VAT at the member states rate (some have multiple) and register for VAT in the EU.

After the EU other countries will follow suit wanting their slice of the pie, if you don't believe me have a look at global sales tax handling for digital sales ([0] quick example). Trying to stay above board here is difficult, there is investment to be made in charging the correct taxes in the first place but the main problem is the massive amount of potential paperwork in filing all the taxes. As will be the case for many retailers we simply don't sell to any country which requires us to charge tax and has no sales threshold.

This is a big problem for small business, in an age where anyone can start a niche business and scrape a customer base together from the entire world they will be killed by paperwork...

On the subject of system performance on macOS… does anyone know of a decent app/tool for limiting CPU on different processes or programs?

This might be less relevant on newer hardware, but I'm interested in limiting certain apps (e.g., Dropbox, OS tools) from heating up the computer and making the fans go crazy.
All of this seems to be normal in most universities. I have seen my PhD advisor's video for a TV channel recorded, later presented in TV with his face cut off and another Professor (unrelated to our team) explaining it on TV. The response from the TV channel ?, We signed off the video rights to do as they please with them.
And it’s a solution looking for a problem. No one wanted this. Not the people and not the government.

It doesn’t solve my problem because I will not use such an app, period.

It doesn’t solve the government’s objective of maximum data collection so they won’t use it.

The very idea of privacy conscious contact tracing is an oxymoron.
You can visit Detroit if you want to experience something like that.
Yes - I agree, we need both.

Sane policy and competent people to prioritize policy in order to lead effectively and move what needs to happen forward (massive categorical failure in the US on this bit, both in government and initial media response to the virus).

We also need the technical solution to consider privacy risk in the initial design so that we don’t implement something that can be abused later for other purposes.

This second part we have and it’s a great solution, but without the policy/leadership piece we can’t leverage it.
Yep, good point. I do see it now. I absolutely didn't back when I started working on that.

I had just delivered & supported an enterprise front-end framework (https://stark.nbb.be/) for which we HAD to help fix issues with state management.

But of course, I just looked at it from the wrong point of view... The point of view of a technical guy, and not the one of a founder.

I'm learning.. ;-)
Exposure notification is not contact tracing. Questionable if effective contact tracing on mass scale without privacy violation is possible. At least Singapore contact trace and enforcement chain worked. Worse, A&G hubris in their solution and lack of cooperation with governments that wanted a proper contact trace solution bordered on insolence has caused preventable deaths. The fact that two platform owners could prevent the rest of the world from mounting proper epidemic responses is terrifying. Even more so if it's just a handful of employees dictating their culture to the rest of the world.
That last part's gonna need a citation. I've never experienced a difference myself. Once methods get big, assuming no usage of IDE functions (regions), going through these large code sequences will quickly fill my mental space, whereas stashing away the code in methods does not.

On the flip side, smaller methods do not encourage code duplication and help set up unit testing for those who desire it. There are also arguments to be made depending on language and coding style (e.g. encouraging guarding, early returns and avoiding bracket use and indentation in old imperative-style Java).
