There are anerobic composting methods that are even more passive then what is described in the article.

For example, in Bokashi composting you innoculate your organic matter with a blend of anerobic microbes (primarily Lacto Bacillus) store in anerobic conditions for a few weeks. When you empty the bucket it doesn't look especially decomposed but it smells sweet and pickled. You can then bury it in your yard and it rapidly decomposes into soil.

This method can safely decompose meat, dairy, and all sorts of materials you wouldn't ordinarily consider safe for at home aerobic composting. I imagine it would be an ideal system for a compost burial process so long as the family is okay with the idea of fermenting their loved ones..

It doesn’t even have to be the same attacker. The attacker could just as easily sell the info to another attacker.

Plus, if the original vuln used to gain access is still open, there’s no reason why somebody else doesn’t find it later.
"DEI existing at all as a thing is based on a mainstream understanding of reality developed through critical race theory."

This strikes me as a very postmodern and intersectionalist view. My reply pointing out the ideological progression as:

marxism -> neo marxism -> postmodernism -> critical theory -> critical race theory -> anti-racism

was downvoted. Your post seems to validate it though.
I was told by an elderly foreign gentleman that he made his living by removing such things from bodies before burial or cremation. He said that the metals in teeth were most of his business.
i uninstalled it and avoid it all cost because i ended up spending around 14 hrs in the app for the 5 days i had it installed on my phone.

If you're trying to equate "fake smiling" to "waking people up at 3am" then you're presenting a great argument against cultural relativism.

Another vote for the Steelcase Leap. I sit in it for 10+ hours some days, with continuous stretches as long as two hours, and have had no discomfort. (I'm older than you and not in great physical condition, FWIW.)
Dams are good from an AGW perspective but ttendto produce widescale environmental destruction of other types, so while they provide clean energy, there's dispute about how much it is “green” energy.
The issue is that Brave's "point" is a self-defeating motive. It wants to rid the internet of ads by... creating more amicable ads? Furthermore, the proceeds from said ads almost never benefit the creators of the content, meaning that Brave has effectively created an ulterior economy adjacent to the internet. Great, just what we needed, Another Competing Standard.

Nobody in the ads industry wants this, and a good 90% of the privacy sector is watching Brave in horror. Creators will make less money and be exclusively paid in a fiat currency, which probably won't appeal to anyone either. If nobody can reconcile Brave's existence, it will always be a second-class citizen on the web, even if it is forked from Chrome.
Assuming IIc is an Apple reference, I'm pretty sure Steve Jobs asked people if they did LSD during the interview and didn't hire them if they were squares.
I remember when Win 7 came out - even then it was so easy to click through the veneer of the Win 7 style. I think it was the 'display' dialogue, which looked almost identical to the Win98 version, complete with the CRT-style monitor. Likewise, Windows 10 looks good with superficial use. Seems like each iteration adds an extra shell.
> Why can't people just opt to be buried without embalming or a casket?

The article mentions the amount of land that this uses. I’d imagine that’s a big part of it.
> TDD encourages you to write many times the number of lines of code for your tests as the code you're testing, often 10X or more.

If that happens I'd say you're doing TDD too early. TDD can be very useful, but early on in the process of transferring a design to code, all your interfaces are highly unstable and there's a lot of experimentation, so sticking strictly to TDD would naturally be frustrating. I would start a bit later when at least some of the API has stabilized and you don't have to do major changes.

TDD helps with creating user friendly APIs, since you experience it from the user's perspective. And it forces you to actually write testable code and not incur technical debt that's very costly to remove later (having to refactor code to make it testable).

> Most of the time, that's enough weight that the better design simply doesn't happen and becomes yet another chunk of tech debt that prevents certain things from happening in the future.

This reads like you're saying that tests themselves are technical debt...? Because you're going to run into this issue (or should run into it) regardless if you use TDD or not. Eventually you'll want to refactor parts of your codebase and, sure, you'll have to change some of your, hopefully mostly, unit tests. So in that sense you can say that doing TDD early creates a lot of technical debt that needs to be resolved quickly, but like I said above, that doesn't have to be the case.

TDD can be a dogma just like any practice (Agile is my favorite), but it doesn't mean that it's not useful if used correctly.

Kudos to the Factorio team for adopting it, which I think is rare in the gaming industry. The idea alone of testing the complexities of a video game is mind boggling to me as a web developer. Especially in an industry where it's popular to hype and sell broken products with the promise of patches and DLC.
No, you become a criminal by paying. You continue not being a criminal by not paying.
I agree that having an automated test suite might be helpful in those situations, but TDD comes with a lot more baggage.
I’ll definitely be checking this one out!

One thing I’m curious about: Will you be looking adding functionality that allows tracking of tokens that are staked using various DeFi services?

All the other portfolio trackers loose track of your coins the minute you add them to a pool. With so many DeFi services around, it’s easy to loose track of where one put ones tokens.

The 3900 number is mostly spread by a single researcher at Harvard who is quoted and self-quoted and cited by his own students somehow making his shoddy research some kind of "fact". Anyone trying to question this basically gets shunned from any conference this gentleman will be involved in and labelled as "revisionist".

It is incredible that Wikipedia too just quotes this single individual on hundreds of pages somehow giving him and his claims credibility. His claims have been refuted by many using plethora of evidence but his citation cartel will simply dismiss it by attacking the authors instead of their research.

> self-hosting an XMPP server isn't something you can just install and have it work

For basic needs ala IRC it should just work out of the box by defining a virtualhost. For respect of advanced features as defined in the XMPP Compliance Suites, it'll need a few more settings but there's good guides:

prosody: https://homebrewserver.club/configuring-a-modern-xmpp-server...

ejabberd: https://www.process-one.net/blog/ejabberd-xmpp-server-useful...

All in all it should take a novice (who has some experience of sysadmin, can deal with DNS records, firewall, etc) a few hours to setup to their taste... Or you could go with Snikket, a XMPP distribution, to have everything pre-configured in a docker container.

> XMPP clients on iOS were unusable

Sorry I don't know about iOS mostly because my acquaintances can't afford Apple devices and/or are not interested in a walled garden where a private company owns all your computations. Though i heard similar stories as yours, but there is progress with Siskin, with some development (eg. OMEMO groupchats) being funded by the Snikket project.

> notifications sometimes don't work

This may have to do with your OS settings. I don't know how iOS handles low power mode but i know for sure some Android distros restrict network queries (apart from the privileged, centralized push notifications service) and there's settings to uncheck for that.

> in a business situation

In a business situation you might find the resources to implement the features you need or pay someone to do it. I understand it may not be the answer you expect, but that's how free-software ecosystems move forward. In this regard, XMPP is not named "eXtensible" without reason.

> it needs to work well enough across iOS/Android/browser to not drive people away

Sure. I think that's the goal for everyone. If there's something that doesn't "work well enough" then it's a bug and should be reported then fixed.
You bring up a good point - a third category. The hardass who pushes you to be your best. The other two:

1. the bully who enjoys hurting others

2. the socially inept person who means no harm

They're very different.

As for a hardass, there's a story about Chuck Yeager who was assigned to command an Air Force base during the Korean War. Upon arrival, he went out to the field to watch the airmen land. Afterwards, he laid into them for their sloppy landings. He got some paint and laid down two lines cross-wise across the runway, and said they were going to take off and land with the wheels touching down between the lines.

One of the pilots told him that was impossible and unreasonable.

Yeager then got into an airplane, took off, made a circuit and touched his wheels down dead center between the lines. He didn't get any more crap from the pilots.

Me, I'd want to work for a hardass like that. Yeager wanted his pilots to be successful, and that means demanding perfection. I don't want a cake and ice cream commander, I'd want one who was a hardass, and keep me and my buddies alive.

You might also want to read "With The Old Breed" by Sledge. He thought boot camp was unreasonable, the drill sergeants too harsh, etc. In his combat at Tarawa, which was horrific, he realized that what kept him alive was the hardass training he got in boot camp.

On a gentler note, one of my profs at Caltech was demanding and a bit harsh. Other students had a bit of a negative opinion of him, but frankly I thrived in his class because of that. Working with demanding and "no excuses" people brings out the best in me.
It's pretty clear that they wanted improved visibility to the display behind the wheel.
Thanks.

In my solution though when the extra temporary buffer is very small,in the worst case, we need to make sizeof(compressedStream)/sizeof(temporaryBuffer) memmove which can potentially make the algorithm quadratic.
I love that Rust has become a successful systems language with memory safety. And while I use many of these "coreutils replacements" frequently, they are mostly not equivalent to the originals, and I think it's disingenuous to claim that they are.
All I can say in my early Linux years is I tried to redirect /dev/cpu to my speakers (maybe something in /dev/snd), and it made one of the loudest sound my quite huge speakers could make. and volume wasn't so high..

I tried that because I was curious, since everything is a file, then surely cpu processing things to become a sound right ? :)

(if you try this please make sure to get that into a pcm/wav file, and reduce the amplitude of that file _first_)
It's been a while since I looked at .Net, but last time I checked it was inferior in terms of multi-platform tooling to many languages.

So take VS Code for example, last I looked you could not build Xamarin apps in it, where as with Go, JS, Dart, etc you can use VS Code to create anything in those languages.
Absolutely not. 100 TB of hard disks costs in the neighborhood of $1500 (using a low estimate of $240/16GB). Even if operating and maintaining the hardware cost nothing (which it doesn't) and redundancy was unnecessary (which most users would disagree with), paying that off at $15/mo would take over 8 years, which is beyond the expected lifespan of the hardware.

Pretty easy, it’s a fairly standard approach for anything requiring heavy lifting that doesn’t suit BEAM - the relevant term is “NIF” for “Natively Implemented Function”.

I was apparently at least mildly controversial and offended both some Christians and Jews when it came out. Though that's probably par for the course with any production depicting Jesus. I don't think it was highly controversial.
I agree with you on that.

There's a wide spectrum of signalling between the extremes of "Hitting the Like button Really Really Hard", and "Creating a new Federal Holiday".

I wouldn't argue that this signal is productive, per se. Very few people honor the intent of Federal holidays anyway. But the signal is powerful, and I've learned that powerful signals do make an impact on psychology.

The whole concept of America, quite honestly, is one of symbols and signals. We can never live up to our mythology, but we can make sure the things we aim for are as honorable as possible. That's meaningful.
It's definitely hard to track down. Mawk is often way faster than gawk, but gawk has more features (sockets even...crazy) and maybe fewer arbitrary limits.
You can use other algorithms in these cases, and you can do things like converge your interval on a result by testing different values and seeing if the result is above the root or below the root, (or if it's within the error, so not possible to determine).
>cut doesn't work with fields separated by arbitrary whitespace. It's often better to use awk

I use `cut` precisely when I want this behaviour. If something actually is tab-separated, I don't want `cut -f3` to give me the 4th column just because the value in column 1 was the empty string.

I admire your perception. I'm personally unable to distinguish different fly specimens, they all look the same to me.
When I fix a bug, I have to reproduce it somehow to make sure my fix actually works. Adding a regression test is a way to save that work as code. Once I have a reasonable test infrastructure set up, the majority of the effort is in understanding and reproducing the bug; going from that to an automated test should not take significantly more effort.

In return, I get to have some extra confidence that a bug doesn't return (which would be embarrassing, even if it's infrequent!) and I get a more thorough test suite that lets me refactor more quickly and aggressively. And if an old bug does come up again, the advantage is not only that the test will catch it before a release, but also that the person fixing the bug won't have to go through the effort of figuring out how to reproduce it from scratch—it's reproduced right in the test suite!

So I am not sure that just looking at how often regressions actually happen in the existing codebase is sufficient to make any real conclusion by itself.
One has to wonder if Cybereason measured the 80% figure from their own clients - endpoint protection is the lowest form of security.

Alternatively, Cybereason are probably in a really good position to snarf passwords and then parallel construct an attack from a third party who gives a few major individual shareholders a kickback.

Does endpoint security even work?
It's a confusing one for sure. I thought he meant "a 2c" as in "one of the 2c class of drugs" which are similar to LSD.

Programmers writing C++ to support graphics also goes in the art bucket though. If there is a performance bottleneck on art, or if you need to load/unload art resources since they take tons of memory, or if they are tweaking shaders, then that is still work done to make the art.

That's the theory. But much like war on drugs or TSA, whether its real-world outcomes match the theoretical ones is debatable.

That's not for us to intellectually deduce, give the numbers. They have it. Is it 79%? 99? 1?

Maybe it's all automated shotgun based attacks and they don't close the holes and so the act of paying the ransom is statistically meaningless

This is shoddy journalism. Might as well just say "X%". It implies you shouldn't pay lest you fall victim again but they don't actually say that.

Things that implicate what they refuse to say is kind of suspect
.NET is not tailered to
XBox. UWP (which runs Xbox apps) is lacking now 2 versions behind .NET itself.

When you wanted to address unity, that is far more than Xbox.

And gaming is a maybe 20% share of .NET.

Why don't all speakers have some circuitry that blocks any signal that could blow out the speakers? This has always seemed like an absurd state of affairs. It should not be possible to damage speakers by turning the volume too loud.

You're not really addressing the point of the comment you are replying to, which is about what constitutes a normalized relation, not what constitutes a relation.

And I agree, TFA is just flat out wrong.

A relation Manager with a CSV-valued column SubordinateIds or columns named "Subordinate1Id" through "Subordinate9Id" is most definitely not normalized because those are in effect a (bad) simulation of hierarchical-database-style repeating groups. That they have distinct names (or positions in the CSV list) is an artifact of the representation and not really part of the data model.
If only organizations would backup their own data. Then they could just restore and avoid paying.

Natural keys are everywhere. They are just less interesting than the relationships. My name is a natural key. It uniquely identifies my name. The wheels come off if you expect it to uniquely identify me. But with natural keys that's never actually necessary.

When I buy a car they record my name, my date of birth, the time of the sale and some details about the car, such as the VIN, which is its name. That provides enough information to form a natural key to identify the sale.

At no point does a database actually have a concept of who I am really, only the relevant data points to satisfy its own relational model.

Any database that means to track information about people would be able to construct a natural key from my name, my mothers name and some information about my birth, such as the doctor, hospital and time.
Probably. I've been wondering how to test and fix this issue actually, since it shows up on my local devices just fine.

Is that styling something that needs to applied to the entire page wrapper as a whole?
Citroen went one step further on the protoype model SM. They did away with the steering wheel altogether and wanted to use a joystick like contraption in the center. After crashing the prototype they added a steering wheel. This is the reason that that vehicle tends to behave terribly when you make a quick course correction at highway speeds: the steering is non-progessive and you'll get way more boost than you expect. That takes some getting used to. One of the star football players in NL almost lost his life in the Schiphol tunnel that way. Details matter, and settled user interfaces should not change unless you have an extremely good reason.
Peugeot's approach to this is to make the steering wheel compact, give it a flatter top and raise the instrument cluster.
