"Pork, lamb, and mutton are the most important sources of T gondii infection, along with game meats such as bear and feral swine."

"A total of 252 women with toxoplasmosis, along with 748 controls from Naples, Lausanne, Copenhagen, Oslo, Brussels, and Milan, were interviewed by telephone or in person. Overall, eating raw or undercooked beef, lamb, or other meats; contact with soil; and travel outside the country were major sources of infection."

Cats don't even make the list of major sources of infection.

Further,

"The association of cats and human toxoplasmosis is difficult to assess by epidemiological surveys because soil, not the cats, is the main culprit. Oocysts are not found on cat fur and are often buried in soil along with cat faeces.11 Therefore, direct contact with cats is irrelevant with respect to T gondii transmission, and soil contact is universal and difficult to avoid."

Ask HN: Review of 365datascience
I am looking to solidify my understanding in Data Science and Statistics. I have a background in Computer Science and DNN as well from Andrew Ng's course. I'm looking for resources to use and 365datascience is one of the candidates.
Anyone who has experience with this or generally any other resources that might be helpful to build a solid foundation?
In a reality where people have limited time and mental energy to properly rank order all candidates for all positions, the jungle (non-partisan) primary practiced in Louisiana and some other states is a wonderful alternative. The unfortunate reality of RCV is that it provides a disproportionate amount of voting power to those who have more resources to spend time on assessment of their true preferences.

Yet, this article from Sports Illustrated claims Derrick Rose and John Wall have multi-million dollar endorsement deals with Adidas that would have been active in 2019.

This article from Forbes claims footballers like Sergio Ramos and Luis Suárez earned more than $1 million through endorsements in 2019.

It might not be an order of magnitude, but there are certainly many more professional athletes who earned more than $1 million in endorsements in 2019.

I've watched some Disc Golf by happenstance recently on a sports channel and later on YouTube, and while it is a niche sport, it's tremendously entertaining.

You see four guys throw the disc in the same way, and a fifth one throw it some other way. With the second, third etc throws you get the flight paths of the earlier throws superimposed on the picture, so you can immediately compare those flight paths. You get instant distant measurements, and course overviews (like a mini map).

All this hooked me instantly.

I have no idea if "proper" golf has stuff like that, but if not, they should.

The gut microbiota seems to have a major influence in the body in which they reside.

Cat + human is only one of the examples of this symbiosis. The same can be said for any animal + human.

Human + human is also true. A couple will tend to resemble each other in looks when living together for a while. If you think about it, the skin is just the outer layer of the gut. One can think of the body as a tubular structure with a couple of openings. The inside, includes the gut where most of the microbiota reside, but also on the skin, in the hair, in the mouth, etc. So when we kiss or touch, we are exchanging microbiota.

Animals in this regard form a sort of proxy. They facilitate the transfer of the microbiota from human to human, including animal to human and human to animal. Overall it seems that diversity is preferable. That's one of the reasons that it's not good to be alone for too long as the microbiota diversity gets compromised. So getting a pet does actually work, be it a cat or dog.
It's not about reversing, but about checking whether reverse iteration works. This is required to perform proper truncation (for limited length fields) as well as visual editing for a cursor to go through the text.

It can additionally be an indication as to whether regular expression matching works, though that is usually handled by a library, and not the core string types.

My contention was always that if a "string" does not reverse text, then it's no better than an "array<char>". The existence of a "string" type implies it should do more.
Ah, thank you. It's been a while since I had to remember which was which.
On second thought, judging by the endorsement deals of these tennis players in 2019, maybe it is an order of magnitude greater:

During the men’s 1500 freestyle heats it was noted the Katie Ledecky would have had the top seed by a significant margin if she were to compete with the men. Similar things sometimes happen in ultra running. I wonder if intersex competition in endurance sports would bring out more greats from the women. As a spectator sport, I think audiences would go crazy for an event with no distinction between sexes and equal chances of winning.
Andrej is an excellent teacher. I got into ML because of his blogs and Stanford's CS231n course (which he also started).
It's a bit disappointing that a relatively new language like Rust doesn't handle these correctly.

There's no value in a String type if it doesn't behave for text. One can simply use a "Array<char>" to convey proper semantic meaning.
I’m thinking they cherry-picked some names that aren’t worried about endorsement deals.

It’s a silly comparison. Mike Conley Jr. makes about $30m/year salary. He may not be that interested in endorsements.
I started playing about a year ago during the pandemic and it's been a really fun and cheap way to get outside, play a casual sport with friends or even solo.

I also highly recommend watching a tournament on JomezPro[0]. They do day-after post production of tournaments and their videos are absurdly high quality for the size and scope of their team. They really seem to take an iterative approach to their product and UX and are seemingly just an indie shop who blew away the existing competition over the years while innovating regularly. Even though they're not 'hard tech' I view them as startup-like and a blueprint for video/media companies of the future.

As mentioned in the parent comment, the PDGA world championship starts today (first video tomorrow!) and that's a great way to jump in. You can watch live, but I find the post-production far more consumable. Watching old tournaments is honestly enjoyable too. Very calming to put on in the background while working.

No, that would be impossible. The idea is that a future AI is built with the goal of [something good] and discovers self preservation and then does the torture stuff.
Except this bubble is a bit more insidious because you have actors like Tether that are most likely creating a lot of artificial liquidity/demand. If there is a sudden loss of faith and enough actors start rushing for the exits, it will look something more like a musical game of chairs of who is left holding the bag of worthless Mickey Mouse dollars, by my estimation.
IP is a big chunk of the balance sheet. Posturing like this is necessary for a company like Disney, even if it doesn't believe it is effective. Not doing this would imply its IP is less valuable than it is currently valued at. And then shareholders would be sad.

I could discuss it with Andrew, but every case will be unique and necessitate its own approach. If I could make one suggestion for anyone dealing with a software patent issue, from my crash-course, is to look into Alice (2014)[1] under Section 101, and review any similar cases, especially by the same entity. You can download case documents pretty cheaply and learn a lot. I paid like 15c a page, and seeing the docket is free. Take the curiosity you have for computers and apply it to the legal system. It's inputs and outputs. But don't go too deep and put your business on the bench. Move the needle a little each day but know you have some time and don't rush into any decisions. Ultimately it's not the end of the world and life will go on.

Okay I had to look up what Flatpak was since the link doesn't begin with a summary, abstract, thesis statement, or overview of whatever the subject is. Would it be so hard to start with "Flatpak, a cross distribution package format [1] for distributing Linux applications, is a security nightmare. We'll outline some flaws we believe to be deal breakers"?

On the other hand, this seems like an attempt to fix application packaging on Linux which is something Linus has, rightly, complained about very publicly [2].

[1] I don't know what to call it exactly, is it a package format or a package manager? Could be something else entirely, I'm not sure.

> well, the money to pay the rent off comes from somewhere... ultimately taxpayers, which includes these "responsible" people

Well, then this program should be welcome news. Instead of wrecking the lives of millions of people and turning them all out on the street, they instead get to keep their lives and careers and continue to pay taxes. Even if you ignored the incalculable misery a mass-eviction scenario would create, it wouldn't surprise me if paying off everyone's unpaid rent is actually cheaper than mass evictions, when the total cost of handling the resulting mass homelessness is taken into consideration.

Lol (and gross!). My mom used to freak out when my cat used to bring such "gifts" for us (mostly mouse, occassionally squirrels that my mom would ask me to rescue, pissing off the cat) or just try to show-off to us what an apex predator he was by bringing his prey inside the house. The peak highlight was when I heard my mom scream one day and rushed to find her on top of the dining table as he had caught a 3 foot thin snake, already half dead, that he was enjoying chasing around inside the house.

Anddd that’s proving his point. Assuming you’re not a troll making a satirical post, this is pretty much textbook toxic behavior. You respond with aggression when instead you could be nice. People respond with an equal and opposite reaction so when you come out swinging you lose an opportunity where you could educate them instead of spreading more hate.
I may be a few years behind on terminology (?) but surely sports has everything to do with sex and nothing to do with gender?

No one cares what pronouns an athlete uses, how they dress, what roles and behaviours society traditionally assigns/expects of them and how they respond to those traditions. They care entirely about biological advantages and disadvantages.

So the division is based on — again unsure of the terms here but — “sex” not on “gender”.

And no sport is trans exclusionary as far as I know: the person in question in this article would be welcomed everywhere to compete against other biological males, and any biological female would be welcome to compete against others of their sex whatever they identify as (so long as they haven’t taken testosterone). I’m not sure I understand why this has become an issue.
Have you considered that forcing the abnormal to be included with the normal renders both terms meaningless?

That is definitely true. For example there is widely held doubt that Paul wrote 1 and 2 Timothy despite that being the claim in its opening words. The content of the cannon,the books which make up the Bible were horse traded around 400 AD by fallible human beings. Before that there was no accepted Bible. I have a strong Christian faith in which the Bible plays it's part, but it needs to be read thoughtfully.
This site has been posted here multiple times in the past. I'd still like to know what the author suggests the alternative should be?

I'm a Qubes OS user, which indeed is a much better solution in terms of security, but it comes with plenty of drawbacks that a lot of users might not be willing to accept. It's also difficult to use for people who are not interested in security.

Right now, there is literally only one project in the Linux community that even tries to address the enormous hole which is Linux security, and that is indeed Flatpak. It's not a perfect solution, and they still have some way to go, but there really is no other way unless you want go to Qubes OS.

You should be better off ignoring comments from people you do not know, with unknown agendas, and without sources.

How, exactly, is this harmful? Why can't you be happy for everyone else? I would be.

Like, if you're worried about the inflation shock that would create, then the same people who have the power to give a million dollars to everyone but me would certainly have the power to raise interest rates and take other measures to prevent the sudden mass availability of wealth from wrecking havoc on the economy. But that's a separate topic, and if I'm affected negatively by this, I'd be upset at the powers that be for failing to mitigate the negative consequences of their actions. I wouldn't be upset at all at the hundreds of millions of people who are suddenly wealthy.
None of this represents a regression relative to traditional Linux package management, except that apparently the maintainance of some packages on flathub is not up to the standards of existing major distributions.

I'm guessing that the reason sandboxing rules are so permissive is because the applications in the sandbox aren't designed to run in a sandbox. Not much you can do about that until some sandboxing system becomes standard — chicken and egg problem.

> Companies tend to be way too specific about the skills required

This is true at least for finance and (technical) hedge funds.

Having observed from the sidelines over the last few years, a common pattern has emerged. Companies realise out that they have a skill or functionality gap (good), figure out what an ideal candidate would look like (fine), carve out a very specific pigeon hole in their organisation chart for that person (wait what), and then start hiring to fit that pigeon hole exactly.

I guess that makes sense if you can afford to wait for and/or poach the ideal person. For mere mortals it feels absurd.
The [1] video is just Propertarianism peddled as Freedom/Liberty. Not sure how you can have self-professed dogmatic attitude to that. I mean it contains a line something like this: "people exchange property voluntarily, otherwise they wouldn't do it". What? That's the level of analysis why people exchange "property"? "voluntary"? Sigh.

It's funny how people just invent shallow concepts like this and it always end up doing nothing but protecting - and extending - the privileges of the wealthy. It's just a predetermined outcome looking for a theory to justify it.
In that sense, having the perfect profile, or at least an elaborate or detailed one, may be a red flag.
There is no such thing as "zero repercussions way out" here, and it seems to make no sense to even want that in this context. Either the bugs are real and they get fixed, or they don't and now the project looks bad; if for whatever reason the bugs turned out to not be an issue, that would be the only time it wouldn't matter in the end.

If the author isn't actively working with upstream to get them fixed, and isn't announcing that association with the project, it's probably safe to say they don't have a position of authority within that project.
