We shouldn't. You probably don't want to take a quinolone antibiotic unless all other options have failed and your life is at risk. There are decades of reports of permanent, severe nerve damage after as little as a single dose. At one point the FDA even had to step in to force some unusually severe language in warning labels.

Computex 2021, June 1st.

* Computex 2017 is when Zen Threadripper was announced.

* Computex 2019 is when Zen 2 Threadripper was announced.

* Computex 2020 is when Zen 2 Threadripper PRO was going to be announced. After the show was delayed, and then officially canceled, AMD did their own announcement shortly after.

So odds are it'll be Computex 2021 on June 1st. This fits in with the usual release timing, as Threadripper tends to follow EPYC by a few months. I'd expect retail channel availability for Threadripper as early as late July, as there's usually a few months between announce and channel availability.

Trust me, I've been waiting to build a 5970X as well. :)

I doubt maintenance & repair costs be more expensive for an ICE engine. The actual engine part requires little maintenance: occasional oil changes each year, spark plugs every five years, and maybe a belt in 10 years? I guess brake pads might be more common, but those are still a once every few years thing and inexpensive.

All other common repair items would the same for an EV: suspension, various ball and CV joints, tires, AC, body damage, sensors, bushings, etc

OP just said they don't talk at all. They sound completely decoupled already. You could put them in the same app and share routes if you want and just separate by package or compilation unit if you really want to. The hard part is already done though.

> Having "analytics disabled" correlate with "using that specific feature" is always a major problem for data driven decisions, worse it's a well hidden and hard to estimate problem.

It's a bit worse than even this suggests. Using any feature is correlated with having analytics disabled, because the more of a power user someone is, the more they'll use "advanced" features (anything beyond "clicking in the URL bar and typing a search term"), and obviously power users are the only people disabling analytics.

So if anything there's an all-encompassing metrics bias saying "users want fewer features and less complexity".

I believe I read somewhere that your app can be booted from the app store if you require permissions that are not needed for core functionality.

E.g. a navigation app is useless without GPS permission and is okay, but a Maps app do not specifically require GPS permission as it can be used to view maps.

So to me, it seems Google is requiring permissions that are not strictly necessary for using the app.
Yes. The trick is to realize that human hands can safely be washed afterwards. Not to mention there are worse things inside the tummy than whats inside the toilet.
Yeah I have seen this but for some reason it just wasn't working for me. I think that maybe the docker service just wasn't being started at boot but once I set it up with systemd it all just works now.
Toyota Became a Winner in the Global Chip Shortage
Having separate services does add additional overhead and maintenance, but it does provide the benefit of 1) Reducing the blast radius if issues occur, allowing for a degraded service instead of being totally down, and 2) Better scaling/ optimizations. For example, one service could need to support more TPS, or need more memory, CPU, etc.
At that point you can just get a bigger computer though.
> This also creates jobs. There will need to be people to report scalping to.

Lol, this guy should do PR for the EU.
These people aren’t arguing that docker is a bad tool to manage complexity, they’re arguing that a lot of the time we build things that are unnecessarily complex. Most “scaling” issues are just performance bottlenecks that can be addressed with a profiler and some optimisation, yet the go-to answer nowadays seems to be to just throw more machines at the problem.
Oh not complex at all. This is a boon for programming computations for GA (geometric algebra). There are libraries that automatically generate algebras and operations within those algebras (such a versor: http://versor.mat.ucsb.edu/), and then you can operate on user-defined versors naturally. It actually makes things less complex because you don’t need to remember a million function names. This is one of the special cases where templates and advanced function dispatch enable super powers. 100% optimal code, type-safe, user-defined, expressive, and automatically generated. Watch your compile times though
Seriously? Wow that’s all kinds of messed up to advertise and then tell people not to do. As a society, we’re in a pretty bad place when it comes to how much we simply expect false-ish advertising.
How many of us have one display turned 90 degrees?

I personally began to appreciate vertical real estate with the SGI LCD made in the 90's. It was 1600x1024!

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SGI_1600SW

My normal working CRT resolution was 1280x1024, and at first the more roomy display was a pleasure.

Then things just got tall, less dense...

Some programs were really impacted. The CAD program I used a ton went to a more dynamically created UI, and basically it would just stack all the stuff up and offer a scroll bar.

When we got cheaper LCD displays and running multiple ones became easier, flipping one to get some vertical working room was the first thing I did.

Today I carry one of those USB displays with my laptop. I use it in portrait mode far more than anything else.

If we were to crank overall UX density back up, we have plenty of pixels these days.

As things are?

Microsoft made a good call here.
Honestly I find this question crazy. Have you never made an asynchronous data call returning an array of objects with properties that are complex types? You're already at Promise<Array<ComplexObject>>. What if you have to keep track of multiple of those calls at once in a data structure? Have you never used map or filter operations on streams of data? Do you really think functions returning functions is "really really complicated"? It makes me wonder whether you've ever actually worked on a moderately complex system.

The side effects aren't well known / understood. They also happen to less than 1% of people who take the drugs (at least that's the current estimate, some side effects may not be properly linked to the drugs). There's very little research on how to measure the damage done by fluoroquinolones. Once a patient says they have tingling, the drugs have already caused permanent damage, and a doctor isn't going to know what to measure to assess this damage, nor what they should have been measuring to prevent the side effect in the first place. This lack of understanding may lead to an inflated sense of safety profile.

They're used to treat antibiotic resistant infections in "hard to reach" places, since the fluorine moiety allows them to penetrate most places in the body (which is also likely related to how they cause insidious damage). This power+reach makes them a default drug for some doctors to treat infections.

There is no reason an efficient ICE can't have cheaper maintenance than an EV.

In this day and age, reliable ICE drivetrains are pretty much a solved issue if you're not trying to make tons of horsepower (which they're not)

Most of the maintenance with a modern ICE has nothing to do with the drivetrain. Tires, brakes, suspension components, filters, all things that EVs still have (brakes get a respite from regen, but the extra weight takes the savings back for the tires).

Oil changes with modern synthetics and low performance demands can be 15k+ apart.

Then there's the fact you can get an ICE drivetrain repaired anywhere and fuel up anywhere.

The cost of building up a repair and charging infrastructure alone would probably have killed any savings.

This is not an anti-EV post, but it is an anti-antiquated-ideas-about-ICE post.

Buildpacks predate Docker. They're standardized build scripts for popular app runtimes. Heroku created the concept and applied it for their PaaS years before Docker was a thing. They're not a competitor to Docker containers. They are perhaps a competitor to Dockerfiles.

SQLAlchemy 1.4.0 Released – featuring major rethink of the APIs in Core and ORM
Most people don't seem to understand how simple Docker actually is when used on the correct platform. On Linux, it's not using a VM, it's running almost on bare metal. The overhead is ~1%.

For that ~1%, you get a build/development/production environment that is cacheable by layers, and identical wherever you run it.
And if you're really good, you'll use that full power to develop a toolset of useful ways to verify that certain properties about your code hold! You'll see common errors and write infrastructure to help your unit tests ensure those errors aren't happening. You might even add annotations into your code as you write it to automatically write those unit tests for you. And you will have invented ... the Inner Type System!

Proxy caching / leveraging caching to external service makes sense when you have a LOT of users scattered around the globe - let Akamai/Cloudflare take care of edge node caching and maintenance.

> This isn't really true for the AstraZeneca vaccine, though.

It is (or was), AZ was to supply EU with 500M vaccines this year but changed that to 200M.

EU got really served on the vaccine front, UK got more from AZ, US got more from Pfizer/Moderna (both have 3x more vaccinated than EU). And each transport that we ought to get is smaller or dalayed.

I wouldn't be surprised if governments there blocked some of the vaccine export.

I really hope that there will be a backslash for those companies for not fulfilling their obligations. If not now then later when there is a race for subsidies for "free" prescription medications.
>Interrupt me after you've tried as many ways as you can to solve the issue

Depends on what you value more. If you are optimizing for personal productivity, sure this makes sense. But if you are optimizing for team wide productivity, it doesn't make sense for someone to spend 3 hours trying everything they can think of before asking if you could have given them the answer in 5 minutes.

Something like spending 30 minutes trying and then asking even though you could go on makes more sense team wide.
You're reading a lot into my comments. You seem to think that I'm against using wind power, which is absolutely not true, as I've commented in the past. I'm against the current narrative's misinformation which cherry-picks stats to push a political agenda. I would like ERCOT to continue to "use wind turbines as part of an overall power generation strategy", but in order to do this intelligently it is necessary to understand the strengths and weaknesses of different generation sources. The fashionable anti-nuclear, pro-wind propaganda is not helping anyone to understand reality.

All of my information about the output of different sources comes from personally digging through ERCOT's minutely detailed reports[0]. I haven't seen a nice, neat fact-checking propaganda piece that deals with the relevant data, but I haven't really searched that hard because all the data is right there, straight from the source.

The "Fuel Mix Report" lists the output of each generation type in 15 minute intervals[1]. There are over 25000 GW of wind capacity, so we would expect to see a maximum of a bit less than 6250 GWh of wind output in the best 15 minute periods ("a bit less" is taking into account that we don't expect 100% output even in the best circumstances). The data matches this, as we see peaks reaching about 5600 GWh. The values are conveniently totaled for each day, and with a theoretical ceiling of 600,000 GWh capacity per day we see that the most actually produced on any day in Jan or Feb 2021 was 458,000 GWh on January 6th, 76% of capacity.

If we look at February 15, 16, and 17, wind output was 225,000 GWh for all three days combined, or a whopping 12.5% of capacity. This matches the pitiful performance that I was seeing in real time in ERCOT's feed.

None of the 15 minute periods report 0 GWh, the lowest being 149 GWh on Feb 15th. So either the granularity is not fine enough or I was just wrong to say that wind dropped to zero, and I would like to revise my position to say that wind output dropped to 2% of capacity.

Hopefully you can understand how I can both support intelligent use of wind power while being dismayed by fact-checking pieces that turn "only 25%" of our capacity being 87.5% offline into vague terms like "exceeded projections" and "wind wasn't a problem", as if 15,000-20,000 GW of capacity being offline was not a significant factor. (87.5% of 25,000 GW is 21,875 GW, but again I am not expecting wind to be able to produce at 100%).

> indeed why you seem to be surprised that if ECOT prepared wind turbines, as well as gas & nuclear (which both lost a fair chunk of capacity) then the outcome wouldn't have been so appalling.

This comes off like you're just making things up to troll me. I've specifically mentioned winterization many times. It's also very telling that, like the fact-checkers, you have to stick to vague terms like "lost a fair chunk of capacity" without getting into the actual numbers which would show how massive that disparity really is.

"Hotspots" is the key term here.

For most high-civilization activities, heat is pollution, something that must be extracted and shed, in volume. Out in the Kuiper belt, cold is abundant and free.

For most high-civilization activities, a gravity well is an anchor chain. Out in the Kuiper belt, material resources, including frozen fusible gases, are abundantly accessible with very little annoying gravitation.

For many high-civiliation activities, proximity of other entities that could be put at risk, or that might put you at risk, creates hazards. Out in the Kuiper belt, room enough for anything is abundant and free.

Extreme primitives like us and bacteria, who don't have abundant private energy sources, welcome the low-intensity energy influx from a nearby star. For anybody even mildly sophisticated, the energy is uselessly diffuse. At the same time, it keeps everything at a noisily high temperature that interferes with signal integrity and fine-grained processing.
I wonder if they could add a trash launcher to the ISS. If some kind of spring or slingshot threw trash retrograde with sufficient velocity, there should be two advantages:

1) The trash would be put in an orbit with a lower periapsis, increasing atmospheric drag causing it to re-enter and burn up more quickly.

2) The orbit of the ISS would be boosted by dV of the trash, reducing the fuel required for the next boost.
