It sounds very similar. I might try both the recipe as it is given and a slight variation to compare them.
Variation would be peeling, dicing and steaming the apples instead of preparing them in the oven as that might be quicker. Preparing egg white foam and putting the blended apples into that also seems like something that might make preparation a bit quicker but I would have to try to find out. Maybe adding a tiny amount of lemon juice would make sense if the acid turns out to be super important.
Beside that it seems like something that lends itself to experimentation. Maybe a pinch of cinnamon would go well with the apples? Very fine ground walnut and some honey instead of sugar might also work well but I guess that‘s a whole new recipe already.
I’m looking forward to it.
For anybody interested in philosophy, religion, science fiction, or mental struggles, I highly recommend the 900+ page slog that is The Exegesis of Philip K. Dick. Mild warning: I read the introduction close to a decade ago and got bored before I even started the book itself. I picked it up again a few years ago and skipped to the actual content and was simultaneously hooked and blown away. Maybe it was just coincidence with my personal journey, but it felt a lot like the thoughts I had one day were found on the pages I read the next day. It is a little repetitive, because PKD is essentially iterating over possible explanations with slight changes each iteration, but if you've read any of his fiction you already know that!

Er, not really.

Not if you have already used it after 14 days after purchase with Apple, 30 days with Amazon and in most cases, no returns if you have already opened it depending where you have bought it.

To see what the hype was all about, I recently bought, tried it out and subsequently returned it at 100% of the retail price. Since you used it for 6 months or so, that isn't going to come close to that and on top of that given how immature the software ecosystem was for Apple Silicon on launch day, it was pointless to jump on board with broken software.

Now that WWDC is around the corner, we'll see what Apple has to offer for Apple Silicon which is not far off.

Indeed, which honestly makes this a bit of a non-story in my opinion. A bit of a misleading headline.
A few possibilities I can think of:

- Trying to figure out commonly-mistyped domain names in order to buy them for ad placement.

- Trying to obtain confidential information that's accidentally pasted into the address bar.

- Trying to obtain internal domain names that someone tries to access while disconnected from a VPN or just physically outside the office.

- (If the extension could catch all non-existent domain errors, not just ones from typing in the address bar) attempting to find abandoned domains that are still referenced by JavaScript and whatnot in order to buy them. This could potentially be used to inject content (probably ads) into the systems that still reference those domains.

- Legitimate research into how users mistype domain names, maybe to figure out how to think of names that are less likely to be mistyped.

I don't know offhand if modern browsers also do DNS lookups as the user is typing characters into the address bar, or just do Google/Bing/whatever queries as the user is typing. I know they do the latter (i.e. typing 'news.ycombinator.com' into the address bar will send queries for 'n', 'ne', 'new', 'news', and so on to the search engine), but I don't know if they're also still doing DNS lookups at each step as well. If they are, and the extension could capture all of those, then that could be an interesting way to collect users' search queries.

I suspect that JoshTriplett is complaining about the `amend` workflow required to update a single gerrit patch with revisions.

If you're used to the GitHub pull request style, you'd be more likely to make a small commit and add it to the request. In gerrit that approach results in a separate patch for review, which isn't what such a person would want.

(Personally, I've come to appreciate gerrit's model for strongly encouraging building patches that are encapsulated single-reviewable-changes, in a way that lends itself to never having a commit that'd break the build if you landed on it e.g. during a git bisect.... But it's also something that surprises people who've not used gerrit before, in my experience.)

Note that UTF-8 wasn't actually standardized until Unicode 2.0 in 1996. This was at the same time as the surrogate pairs needed for UTF-16. And UTF-8 didn't find its final form until 2003, which was around the time when it really started to gain legs.

However, as you say, by 1996 people were already using the older UCS-2 standard.
Holy Plate of Shrimp! I was just recommending a movie to a friend by comparing PKD and Lem:

Hey have you seen The Congress???!?!?!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Congress_(2013_film)

Trailer:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkDyKWKNeaE

I like it almost as much as Blade Runner, which it parallels, by being a movie based on a (Stanislaw Lem / Philip K Dick) book that it's inspired by but a lot different from, but the movie stands on its own and has something unique and interesting to say.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Futurological_Congress

Both the book and the movie are excellent but different!

There's a riveting dramatic scene on a Light Stage, where Harvey Keitel provokes emotional responses from Robin Wright for capture by the Light Stage. Lots of cool techno blinking lights. And it's actually technologically and anatomically correct! It accurately shows how a real Lightstage actually works.

About how the movie industry is being turned upside-down! But much bigger than that. What happens to actors?

And how do consumers "consume" characters and celebrities?

They literally consume them not just like but AS drugs!

It's visually delicious -- you can see some consumption here:

Eliminate things bacteria can efficiently metabolize, consume things that humans can efficiently metabolize. Namely, eliminate saccharides (sugar, plant starches, etc.) and get your calories from fat instead. Improved dentition is only one of many benefits.
Yes, you’re right, it’s more of an antibiotic, but it seems to have a balancing effect on the oral microbiome.

A Scanner Darkly is my favorite book of his (that I've read so far). I think because it's a bit longer than most so there's more time to develop characters. It's got such a sad and interesting tone.

Mostly no. Keep in mind people are not born with perfect teeth by default. My SO is a DDS and has been practicing for about 15 years now. The bulk of her workday is definitely not fillings. Remember people break teeth, grind teeth, teeth die (trauma, health, etc), people want cosmetic work and the list goes on and on. She loves this type of thing to let people help themselves - but it often doesn't work. There's product on the market already that helps reverse caries before they need to be addressed - and people are lazy. They don't use it, don't follow through, and then come in to have the work done in the end.

So while this will be a great thing for a lot of people it will likely be another tool in a dental professional's belt more than anything.
For anybody that grinds their teeth, investigate getting a splint before you reach this stage.

I remember in Sub-Saharan Africa, they all chewed on this stem (can't remember what it was), and everyone I knew had incredible teeth. Their diet was probably also fairly simple. I wasn't really a fan of the local cuisine.

When I lived in Morocco, however, it was the opposite.

Moroccan food is some of the best in the world, but they have sugar in everything. Their mint tea is something that should come with an insulin injector. They buy these giant bricks of sugar, wrapped in blue paper, and just drop them in the pot.

When many Moroccans smile, it looks like a brown picket fence.

Did I mention that Moroccan food is awesome?

I got to meet evan once when i was in SF and he was awesome to hang out with im curious what he is going to be up to next. Phabricator was one of a few pieces of software that actually brought me joy when using. I will always miss the diff review process now that my current company is moving from phabricator to github and i’ll be unlikely to ever use it at a company again with this update.

Thanks Evan for all the work you have put in over the years. Some of my biggest learnings as an engineer have been from reading and interacting with you on the phabricator secure server and reading your code when extending phab for companies.
The pool most likely will be it’s own unit and not rigidly connected to the buildings so it essentially can slide between the two buildings.

The buildings are relatively low and wide so I don’t think they’ll flex much in the wind but the soil can definitely shift under them and eventually they might drift apart too far for the tolerance of the pool’s suspension.

If a the glass shatters it doesn’t going to matter where the hole is if you are in the water you’ll most likely going to get sucked through before you know what happened.

I would also be worried much more about the glass shattering due to stresses from thermal expansion or even vibration over time than the buildings flexing.

I’ve seen large panels shatter across quite a few installations in London because the frame was a tad out of spec and the temps dropped below zero.
Uber and Lyft tackled local monopolies, sure, but not national or international ones. They also took a strategy of actively flaunting and breaking of laws in their growth. Not sure that’s a good form of disruption.

What monopoly did AirBnB tackle?

I’m guessing you’re suggesting PayPal went after Western Union? There are plenty of ways to exchange money though.

Would my point be better if I clarified the monopolies? Perhaps if we focus on national monopolies?

> Is this not natural selection at work?

I fail to see how this is relevant. Yes, Tasmanian Devil's are dying of "natural causes". But, humans like them and want them to continue living. So, humans will preserve them if possible. Now, natural selection is selecting for creatures that humans like as well as creatures that don't bite each others's faces off. Natural selection does not pick morally good creatures to survive. Natural selection is merely the fact that creatures that live long enough to have babies, live long enough to have babies.

This is interesting as I’ve noticed that when I sleep only 6-7 hours and leave my bed in the morning feeling tired because I could have slept more, I typically feel happier throughout the day than days when I sleep 8-9 hours and wake up naturally without an alarm.

I'm currently using Elmex Sensitive Professional. It's apparently using arginine as its active ingredient. Although I don't know which ingredient in here it is that is actually in charge of numbing the pain. I know I've dabble with some other one as well but I have no idea what it had.

I did find Meridol and Sensodyne Rapid Relief toothpastes listed on a national pharmacy's website that apparently contain stannous fluoride, so maybe I'll have to try those out at some point. I don't think I've ever tried either.
Their David Beckham video is pretty good https://www.synthesia.io/post/david-beckham
I’m not sure I fully understood from the article, but it seems like they were using genetics as a proxy for “natural” wake-up time and something something causation for depression.

I didn’t really get it despite reading the explanation three times. I’m not convinced but that could just be down to this article rather than the paper itself.

I just don’t get how they accounted for something like “depression causes people to sleep later and for longer”.
Thanks for posting this. I wanted to try this but didn't want to give out my info.

I don’t think the article is talking about sleeping for one hour less. It has examples saying “go to sleep one hour earlier; wake up one hour earlier” - so the same amount of sleep.
How does this compare with Sensodyne Repair and Protect? That product uses Novamin and effective rebuilds enamel, also offering whitening, reduced sensitivity, etc.
I read almost all Lem and PKD. Love them. Also watched Blade Runner and The Congress. Either is a masterpiece.

> Phabricator should be reasonably easy to self-host anyway.

It's a bit of a mixed bag compared to other self-hostable applications. There are a lot of moving parts, and the initial setup requires 60 different unique databases. It has a handful of background daemon-like processes that occasionally get wedged.

But, overall, there are some really interesting pieces of architecture in it, it's a really big project, and it does a lot of things pretty well.

I'm sad but not surprised to see this news.

Well in that scenario, the only way your speed would be constant (assuming a constant angle on the hill) is if your engine thrust was constant. So "pumping" the gas just achieves a constant thrust. So your speed stays the same and the thrust stays the same. So there is perfect correlation and causation (by some definition of causation).

But more to the point, there isn't a good definition of causation. If you use the "but for A, B would not occur" there are problems. Other definitions also have problems.

This is a deep epistemological problem and I think not as simple as it may seem.
There really needs to be something like this. When we look back on dentistry in 50-100 years we will be amazed how barbaric it was! Ouch!

Well, if it makes you happier I've declined many, many pay raises at the company to manage its finances, reduced my salary so others get paid, and proposed I go without it at times. So did a couple of colleagues.

I remember the then CTO and cofounder, who quit about a year and a half in, telling me that's all they could pay. I couldn't prevent the thought of "Awww, I want to build a mitherfucking organization out of this" from crossing my mind. For now, it's a unibrow like myself, not a multicorn yet. We'll get there.
I've these same thoughts and feelings. Right now I just would like to get outside more and get some exercise. In general I don't feel bad if I work on work problems off-hours as you can't really control when your brain figures things out. These moments should be for exceptional/interesting cases though and not a priority for and reason like a work deadline. It's not even like internet services have truly hard deadlines like gamedev or shrinkwrap software of olden days.

I know - it is complicated. The commercial rate here in Ontario for large consumers is based on the delta between expected load and actual load. If the expected load is much higher than actual, it can actually go into negative pricing (if they have a big nuclear reactor they can’t or don’t want to spin down, they will literally pay you to use the electricity.) I had a friend at a big company here that had some large refrigeration units for medical related stuff, but they had quite a wide range of temperatures they were allowed to be. So my friend wrote a script that scrapes Ontario Hydro’s website to fetch the commercial rate, and when it was high he’d let the temperature climb a little, and when it was low he’d cool the units a little more. Ended up saving seven figures a year.
