I don't think this is true:

I wasn't addressing that portion of AuryGlenz's comment. Obviously if you have an underlying condition, you should take that into account. The C.D.C. addresses autoimmune conditions here:

> Donald Trump is about the last person on earth I would point to as someone whose actions and motivations should be viewed as straightforward. He's been pumping the vaccines and trying to take credit for them ever since they were approved, and his making a big show of getting the vaccine can easily be viewed in that light.

He didn't make a big show of it. He made no show of it at all. I'm not appealing to his judgement. I'm appealing to the judgement of his doctors.
$10 is annual which is not useful when you need it once every 6 months. You wrote that you need Photoshop every 6 months. It means that you can pay $32, get access for a month and cancel subscription afterwards.

I get what you're saying, but my point is that $1000 is ludicrously expensive when you only rarely need that software and in this case cheap subscription is a good option. I would not consider $1000 for Photoshop at all, but $32 is something I could pay if there's no free or cheap alternative.
Any recommendations on those hazardous things?
Check out the electric co's site, and maybe it'll explain it better than I could have at a broad pass. But that inboard was their entry-level motor that actually existed.

I suspect their power declaration is marketing language claiming burst power, and that its nominal cruising range is well under it but regardless of any of that, the batteries costing $180,000 is still an issue.

Edit: forgot one important thing for that power matching, the weight. Replacing an engine and full gas tank -- the electric motor + mid-range battery pack overall adds about 2,500 lbs to the boat, so it'd be a 7,200 lb boat at that point and I'm not sure I could trailer it anymore.

JIT's can be made 100% secure. Inspection by humans cannot be made secure, for a lot of different reasons. So it's just the opposite.

I've run bots that executed code from the internet and while yes, I've had to learn some lessons the hard way, you can have perfectly safe JITs.
Tangent of a tangent: Wiki says "in 2006, only 20% of Americans had passports. As of 2011, approximately 37% of Americans have passports or passport cards."[1]

Did the 2008 financial crisis somehow double the number of Americans with passports?

I suppose the argument would be that there's no illusion that media hiring is intended to serve actors' desires as opposed to building the image that studios want for their product. If tiktok had marketed themselves as a unique kind of curated content company instead of a social media service with democratically-determined exposure, I think the studio comparison would be apt.
i just looked over some code I have which takes a complicated 3rd party binary format, parses, and extracts information from it. In about 2K LOC including tests there are no casting events except for some int-to-pointer and pointer-to-int at the boundary of passing reference to WASM.
Well iOS Transmit still works just fine, 3 years after it was discontinued…
You're completely right. I can't count the number of paid apps I bought and then barely used. Two dollars here, five, sometimes ten. Thing is, I can play that game now, or tomorrow, or ten years from now and it still cost me the same amount.
This part is talking about who is allowed to view the materials. Level 4 and O5 are the top people of the foundation and the information is only allowed to be seen by them.
This is cool. Looks like you’re using Prism for syntax highlighting. Would you consider supporting Shiki (as well)? It uses the same tokenizer and themes as VSCode, and there are cool plugins such as shiki-twoslash which adds support for TypeScript features like type error highlighting and symbol references (and quite a bit more).
To add to the sibling comment, not only do they result in huge amounts of capital being spread evenly across an index instead of efficiently to deserving companies, but they inflate the entire equities market, even when it's overheated or drowning in debt, as a consequence of the "buy and hold forever" mentality. I think we will see result in larger bull runs and larger eventual bear markets (while it will take a bigger dip to get people to sell, there will be a ton of relative household net worth available to sell when there is a strong enough impetus).

Instead of laws enabling ETF's and long term capital gains discounts, I'd rather have a government with a less inflationary monetary policy, where the key to wealth for the average person is saving.
I don't think that part was a joke. It's business development, as opposed to software development.
The refresh costs you are talking about are what I meant by the RAM has cost by being installed on a typical laptop. The power is used because the machine is in an active-idle power state with that much RAM installed, not because the OS has decided to burn more CPU time in the presence of more RAM as someone suggested earlier in the chain. Most of the idle power consumption is all the ancillary system controllers, not the CPU cores themselves. These are the things that are better managed on a typical smartphone SoC platform.

And, I am referring to active idle, not suspend-to-ram scenarios. I think people are talking about screen-on time for battery life, not lid closed and suspended nor lid open but screen disabled. Precious few people are enjoying a laptop that successfully performs a suspend to RAM sleep state while keeping the display alive. Often, the integrated GPU is continuously scanning framebuffers in system RAM and outputting pixel data to the embedded display port even though nothing is changing on screen. Frequently, drivers have disabled LCD panel self refresh modes due to unresolved glitches and artifacts in the graphics stack.
Can anyone from any location use this?

Reddit’s audience is old; it’s a bunch of millennials and older gen Z. And the kids don’t really use the comments on Reddit, they just yoink memes and throw them on whatever social media platform their friends use. The gen z’s I know through the LGBT community couldn’t give a shit less about politics.

Text as a medium is rapidly falling out of favor unless it’s for purely informational purposes. I read an article this morning about how the book publishing industry is all but dead because nobody is buying books anymore. Newspapers are largely dead, and the ones that still exist have pivoted hard to video or metatextual content.

Text doesn’t sell valuable ads and reading requires your full attention, and that is in direct competition with social media. It’s why banner ads were never really effective and the big ad revenue shift only happened after video ads became viable (and made YouTube unwatchable).
As I recall, in one of the antimemetic stories they can (with some intentional effort) remember and describe what it isn’t: “It isn’t... round.”

I noticed that the “original” article mentioned that a lot of time was spend promoting Babel through talks at conferences and companies.

What is the benefit of using robotics to move the camera over image stabilization software in post?

Is it simply image quality? Or are there more trade offs?
I agree with most of what he's saying but reading the first sentence almost stopped me in my tracks when I got to "obsessed". I wonder when exactly it was that "obsessed about this" and "obsessed about that" became a good thing. ...it's thrown around way too much these days, and I for one think that being obsessed with anything, regardless of how positive a thing it is, always speaks to a psychology that is defective in some way or another.

Here in the Caribbean it's even worse. Our gas stations employ people to fill up your car. I remember when I first traveled to the U.S. as a child and was surprised to see people filling in their own tanks of gas. With my innocent mind, I immediately thought that their quality of living was worse because they had to get out their car and do the labor of filling up their tank. Now I realize that the Caribbean has many of these jobs by force because are employment rates are so low. It's a sad realization.
Is the disk space used for anything useful in parallel to Proof of Space?

What would have been smarter would be to make the space allocated to Chia also serve as a decentralized, worldwide storage facility (e.g. compete with S3/Glacier). You'd get better utilization of the resource, and have an extra revenue stream for the system.
It would be good if your non-profit's economic model eventually allows you to hire a core team of trained teachers and supplement with volunteers. You can also allow college students to mentor high school students for credit experience and offer a letter of experience.

In the uk we spent £2.6bn on staffing the department for work and pensions in 2017 and for that 2.6bn cost they dispensed £1.9bn to “job seekers allowance” claimants (unemployment benefit).

The 2.6bn is staffing costs only, it ignores e.g. fines and legal costs for when the dwp gets things wrong. The dwp was wrong almost 400 times per day, every day of the year if you count the tribunal rulings against them in 2017.

That sounds to me like the definition of living hell. Writing prose on a touchscreen is bad already, I can't imagine how bad it must be to write actual code on one. It's not an iPad(OS) problem, it's a form factor/peripheral problem.

Rust has teams that make decisions to accept designs in their part of the project. They look at proposals and decide to accept, reject, or postpone them. This process can take a while, depending on all sorts of factors. Sometimes a design may be good, but it may not be the time yet, which is when postponing happens. Sometimes it's a "we don't plan on doing this" and that's when things get rejected. Even if a design is accepted, we don't require that people proposing the design do the implementation work, so if you do propose something and it does get accepted, it may take a while until it actually exists. Furthermore, stuff is in unstable at first, until people can gain experience with the feature, so even after an RFC is accepted, it takes some time until it's "stabilized," at which point it's part of the language proper.

I would think that reading has gotta be better “exercise” for your brain than reading short comments/posts/tweets online? If for nothing else than to exercise your concentration/willpower?

Furthermore, writing is the easiest medium for most people to communicate knowledge. Sure, alternatives such as watching a video make things easier for the learner. But video making is not as widespread of a skill as writing. Because of this, if you want to learn from an expert on a topic, or even just about a very niche topic, you’re probably going to have to read.

The observation is correct. In Europe you have social programs, in America you have gig jobs and Walmart. Walmart even tells its employees how to sign up for all sorts of programs, like food stamps and housing aid, and that's how the taxpayer subsidizes them.

I have observed young people today, on tiktok, wallstreetbets, and other communities, to generally be very savvy and cognizant of trends and good investments more so than older people, who get stuck in ruts, such as subscribing to hype/fud of zerohedge or peterschiff.

I'm really uncomfortable with the commercialization of the job application process. A resume was at least somewhat platform agnostic (especially in the paper resume era). Platforms like LinkedIn (and now TikTok, I guess) are able to create a captive audience of users by getting employers to use their services. The free market idea of "if you don't like the product/service, vote with your wallet and don't use it" is hard to defend when said service is required to apply for a job at an unrelated third party.
We already have state IDs. Talk about making them mandatory and provided, automatically, for free and useful for the things a national ID is useful for (replacing our widespread and awful use of Social Security numbers as a de facto personal ID for interactions with business and government, for example) and you start to run into resistance in a hurry.

They do tend to favor adding ID requirements to voting, though, yes.

To my mind, the point isn't that NYT should make its opinion pieces consistent with itself or anything else. Opinion pieces ought to be inconsistent that way. If they aren't, then the discourse is too uniform.
