Amphetamines aren't magic. There are qualitative differences in response between people with and without ADHD, that manifest across the board, not just on few school metrics - and a psychiatrist will be able to see them.

The "young unruly boys without enough PE" is a well-known trope, and modern school is very much kid torture - but I'm not willing to say yet that we're medicating children too much, when the world is only slowly waking up to the fact that we've been underdiagnosing ADHD by at least factor of 2 - this stereotype of unruly boys means the Primarily Inattentive subtype of ADHD is being frequently ignored (vs. the Primarily Hyperactive that creates all the stereotypes), that girls suffering from ADHD are not being diagnosed, not to mention adults.
Under oath, presumably you compel the people in the footage. But I would imagine that the footage of questionable sourcing might count as the probable cause to go in and get the footage directly via warrant?

Google Business (business.google.com) which is used for managing a business on Google/Google Maps has surprisingly pretty good customer support (for Google :) ). There is an option to request help and when you decline all the automated answers it's possible to send a text to a real person. Up to now all requests to remove reviews, photos, or previous/old business listings have been resolved in 2-3 business days.

In order to remove a review on Google Business it needs to be fraudulent or outdated - e.g. the business has been remodeled and the review doesn't apply anymore. But the list has over 10 different categories on why a review can be removed. So in reality I would say it's probably possible to remove any review. The customer for Google is the business, not the user as Google is promoting GoogleAds to local businesses so they need to keep them "happy" to increase Ad spend.
Herbivores are reciprocal to omnivores. Vegans are not comparable to either. Vegans don't eat animals not because they can't, but because of their beliefs. The word vegan describes a belief, contrary to omnivore and herbivore that describe physiology.

A human may choose to walk on all fours because they're insane, but they will still be a biped.
I think almost all SME owners would assume they'd have to pay (Yelp model), rather than just be able to lie and say it's fraud. Also who is going to advertise after the fact that they falsely had reviews removed - risking getting dumped by Google?

I'll assume Google's reviews are at least somewhat likely to be biased (either way!) until reason to believe otherwise. The "you don't know the review wasn't posted by a dog" position.
Once spent way longer than I would have liked trying to debug an iOS app issue that couldn’t reproduce and debug in the emulator because iOS devices have a case-sensitive FS, macOS devices typically don’t, and the emulator was subject to the macOS file system’s conventions.

Leaky abstractions all the way down.
This. However, the burden of dealing with dozens of not only subscriptions, but change in subscription models (none->monthly, annual only like Prime, or per-usage) is daunting to many.

In particular, if I can't get family subscription for services like VPN, video, etc, I simply don't bother - because I'm not maintain 2-3x subs and I'm not going request close family to pay for something they may not need.

So I choose not to pay and look for simpler alternatives in that case.
This is strictly correlative, but good data.

> Why "going digital" in 2021 means your company is worth 100X what it was a few months ago I'll never quite understand.

Understand it or not, it happened. Going from $3 to $300 in under a year.

Just because some people stated seemingly silly reasons for their predictions doesn't mean everyone betting on it is stupid. They may be trying to encourage others, have an intuition, hope to detect the peak and quickly sell, or even not care about money and be playing it as a game. But at the end of the day, whoever makes money is not the stupid one. Today GME is $250. Plenty of them can be getting rich now.

I have a thought that understanding how the stock market works doesn't matter much. Most of the knowledge from that is already bakes into share prices and the movements are pretty much random. So you very well could win by not knowing what a short is.
> The hackers’ methods were unsophisticated: they gained access to Verkada through a “Super Admin” account, allowing them to peer into the cameras of all of its customers. Kottmann says they found a user name and password for an administrator account publicly exposed on the internet.

So you're telling me that the interface that grants you access to ALL of your customers' (including hospitals and schools) data and shells to the cameras doesn't even require 2FA? W...w-what?
Right, I wish there could be a place where these sort of things could be discussed without the stigmas of "discrimination".

My wife and I talk about these sort of things sometimes: We believe there are differences between man and woman (and between different human descents, like people from the mayan descent [from where I am from] are shorter, while people from Germanic descent are taller, among others). That does not have to mean that one is better/worse than the other. But if society accepted and understood those differences, we could make better use of each feature for good.

This always reminds me of the equality vs equity cartoon ( http://www.vestidosdecordura.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/... )
> Antisemitism is such a tired strawman. Am I accused of sinophobia if I critique the CCP? Of course not. But critique of Israel is so often interpreted as 'antisemetic'.

In one you criticizing a ruling party, in the other you are criticizing the only majority Jewish country in the world.

Your statement itself isn't anti-Semitic but highly ignorant of the key differences. I don't intend to change your views nor biases but I hope you are able to reflect on what you wrote.
There are no such thing as burner phones in many countries any more. You have to show ID to buy a SIM card, and a copy is made and sent on to the authorities.

They run surveys that ask questions like "do you prefer advertising that appeals to you? or "are you more likely to make a purchase based on relevant advertising?" People assume that the questions are asking broadly "do I want to see a car ad vs a diaper ad?" That is not the case – these are hyper targeted ads based on their usage patterns gathered from their digital devices. Often times, these surveys also include questions that lead users to respond with "I believe in value exchange between ads and the content I consume." Obviously marketers, ad tech, publishers, etc run with these studies as a panacea for the work they output.
That saying has it limits, most pf these excuses are sounding very improbable, like:
"oh i didnt mean to rob the place, i found the door unlocked and walked in to give it a good clean."

When motive, money and power align,yet we still accept weak ass excuses?

Even if the Jewish state status wouldn’t be an issue right of return will never happen it would be a social and economic suicide.

This isn’t the German unification it’s not even the possible Korean unification there is really no way to deal with it other than grant Palestinian refugees an actual refugee status and settle them.

Keep in mind even the PA doesn’t want to grant RoR to refugees many of them weren’t refugees from the land that is now Israel but wasn’t pre-1967 or even 1948, many of them escaped from what is now the West Bank, some one their own, some due to Israeli pressure some due to Jordanian pressure.
I had no idea they did that, and that's a really genius idea. I'd happily pay that for sites I like reading so I can pull the content in and read it how I want to rather than deal with the absolute dumpster-fire of a mess that the modern web is.

That actually works on some implementations (the preprocessor grabs a token without checking that it's a identifier). I've seen:

I'm an accredited investor and honestly, I'd be way wealthier today if I had just done the right thing and lied about being one a little earlier.

I wish the requirements were intelligence/knowledge-based rather than resource-based but I suppose the real test of intelligence was knowing that you can lie about being an accredited investor and no one can tell so I actually failed it.
I guess so. ActivityPub seems a lot more complicated than what I have in mind. With RSS itself, most developers could create a reasonable implementation in a weekend. I see no reason why couldn't have something of similar simplicity for commenting.
I don't think those are the actual trade offs for modularity. If I want waterproofing, I use waterproofed modules and a specific case. If I need more battery life, I use a bigger battery module.

The real tradeoff is size. The ultra thin electronics are the benefit of not having modules. Related to that is performance - the performance you can get is well correlated to how nicely you can put your traces on the PCB connecting the two. Having to go through a connector adds another competing constraint

Source: have done some modular and non modular designs of the same. Not nearly to the same precision and performance requirements as building a phone, but not that far off

Really not sure what you're trying to say. You admit that the Brits were opposed to the Jewish efforts to establish Israel. In other words, Israel was not established with the help of the Brits, but in fact against their opposition, contrary to your original claim.

I'm not sure what actions by the US during the 1948 war you refer to. From wikipedia:

> This situation caused the United States to withdraw its support for the Partition plan, thus encouraging the Arab League to believe that the Palestinian Arabs, reinforced by the Arab Liberation Army, could put an end to the plan for partition.

In other words, US policy actually encouraged the attack on Israel and Arab hopes that they could destroy Israel and subjugate the Jews.

The only way US was involved at any later point was as part of the UN efforts to establish a ceasefire, after the Jews successfully defended Israel against the Arab attack. In other words, after the Jews already won.

The US allied itself with Israel during the Kennedy administration, i.e. much much later, because Israel won the 1967 war.

Either way, your representation that Israel was established based on foreign powers is not supported by any facts.

As a side note, one of the most capable armed forces that attacked Israel in 1948 was the Arab Legion, a forced trained, organized, and armed by the British Empire, and commanded by British officers:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_Legion#1948_Arab%E2%80%93...

So much for that argument, then.
Not sure whey you're being downvoted - so I upvoted you.

The US has huge problems with regulation that prevent new housing creation. A lot of that has it's origin in segregation:

https://www.epi.org/publication/the-color-of-law-a-forgotten...

This applies to cities and suburbs. For example in lost of NYC and SF, most buildings would be "illegal" if they were built today.

If you can't change "supply" a "free market" that relies on balancing supply and demand won't balance. It's crazy. And a building issues in US politics.
If you use a file system that doesn't normalize lookups, yes you can.
This conflates zoning with building code. Building codes are things like requiring that your wires be properly attached and connected so that you don't get electrocuted in the shower as your house burns down, or that you have to build enough beams to support the weight of 4 people and all their possessions.
Thanks for the comment, and GREAT point!!

Unfortunately, we've been adding features in left and right on demand and just haven't had time to optimize profile delivery yet since it hasn't been in high-demand, but that's next on our roadmap.

We're about to add in our one-click export to static, which will cut out all the existing Javascript on the page and optimize all assets before delivery, and then trigger re-builds on every change to your site.

There will ultimately have to be a user-set balance between performance and feature-set however, as just like WordPress not all plugins will be able to be pre-compiled.

Just to add a bit of context: 50% sounds great, but Germany uses ~3.7PWh of energy only 0.6PWh of which is electricity. Renewable energy production is 8% of energy consumption. No large-scale storage needed if 92% of your energy can be generated from fossil fuels on demand. So far so good, but we have much more than 92% of the work still ahead of us since it will become harder as we need storage and use up the available physical space.

Yes, I should have been more specific that collagen gets broken down into collagen peptides. I didn't think I needed to be that specific since it's like the difference between Calorie and calorie (i.e., the distinction is not relevant to the discussion on hand).

We know that the body can use collagen without digesting it first because collagen masks are used to heal burn victims. See, for example: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6565829/, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3081477/

Collagen is a protein. It is made up of several "peptides" referred to as "collagen peptides." When it is first digested, collagen is broken down into collagen peptides in the gut. The type of collagen determines the ratios of these peptides. Most, but not all of these collagen peptides get further broken down into amino acids in the gut. (Contrast to whey, which gets entirely broken down into amino acids.) However, a significant portion of collagen peptides can survive digestion, or leave the gut before they are digested. (Up to 10%, depending on the original source of the collagen.) The body can utilize these peptides directly to repair skin, because skin is mostly made of...collagen. The presence of collagen peptides simply lets the body go straight to creating collagen without having to wait while peptides are created from amino acids. (The body will still do that, but it's like starting a construction project with supplies on hand vs having to wait for supplies to arrive or be built.)

You've misunderstood. There is no doubt that Rust eliminates more undefined behaviour than Zig (though not completely), but it does it at the cost of harming other aspects of correctness. Zig does not try to eliminate UB as much as Rust, but it focuses more on reducing other types of bugs. At the end of the day, you don't care if your program fails due to UB or another bug, and it is unclear which approach results in more correct programs overall.
This will make them more competitive. On what world does it make sense to buy a highly levered, decaying, short term downside hedging instrument here.
I agree totally - if you brazenly break the rules, you tend to get punished.. unless you back it up with real results. Disrupters tend to be the innovators in society. School does not value disrupters in the same way as a business might.

In a school setting, someone who listens, follows the rules, and does not challenge the structure of the institution is highly likely to receive excellent grades. In a business setting, this person may be an employee who contributes to the team by doing their job, and doing it accurately and consistently.

A disrupter may work in the same job, and challenge the way things are done - they may fail in doing so, and be repremanded or fired, or they may succeed in their disruption, and allow for a change in the process or job, resulting in greater efficiency.

This is the trade off in my humble opinion.
> There needs to be correction without punishment for people who are not malicious

I would like to see this principle applied to society in general, and I'd like the default assumption to be that people are not malicious until proven otherwise.

While I agree with you that shutting down existing nuclear plants, assuming they're in proper operating condition, is a bad idea vs the urgency of climate change.

But nuclear power has never been the ultra cheap clean power slam dunk you're portraying. I've been hopeful someone will come up with a clever innovation that changes the cost numbers, but so far every attempt has tanked.

With hydroelectric dams, there is an urgent motivation to bring many of them down: ecosystem collapse. It hurts to lose the storage capacity, but there's a growing awareness of just how severe the damage has been. I don't expect Grand Coulee to come down any time soon but talking with someone who does modeling related to this for NOAA made clear a lot of them are going away.
> Putting surveillance video on the cloud is... kinda dumb.

I tend to agree, but ...

If you're a small business or manufacturer, IT is a pain in the ass. The "cloud" is a benefit because you don't need to maintain any servers yourself and can just get on with your business.

The problem is that these companies don't face any consequence for claiming that they're secure and then not actually being ... you know ... secure.

If this stuff was simply encrypted at rest, that would have mitigated most of this breach.

Your conspiracy theory that Britain decided to give land to the Jews "to support the colonization of outsiders and make them dependent on you military" makes no sense. Israel has never been dependent on the UK for military support. The UK has even attempted to impose arms embargoes on Israel. Relations between the two countries have been strained at best for nearly all of Israel's lifetime; it was only in the 2000s that things improved. The first ever joint training session occurred in 2019.

If you compare hydro to nuclear, we can dump nuclear waste in a hole in the middle of the desert that is mostly dead. All the US nuclear waste fits in a football field at a depth less than 10 yards. Hydro harms living ecosystems with areas far far greater than that required for nuclear waste storage. We are talking about country wide scales.

I have a friend that's working as a sales agent for a company that is putting pressure on the sales agents to make the customers at any cost leave a good review on multiple platforms, some of them became really crafty and did anything necessary in order to make the customers leave a 5 star review.
