I don't believe there is a shortage, when only few companies have a strong hold on their supply.
I mean, we could also ask Apple to officially support Homebrew while we're at it. The bottom line is... well, the bottom line. Microsoft is very willing to diversify it's partnerships as it's heading into a new decade, and I bet Amazon wasn't adverse to shaking some money their way for routing it all through their services.

It's not great, but it's significantly better (imho) than if they had exclusively chosen the Play Store. It's a creative way to gently pressure developers to publish to additional marketplaces, which indirectly pressures Apple since the Microsoft Store now doesn't force developers to route payments through their system (thusly reducing Microsoft's "cut" to 0% for many apps)

Not at all. Given my climate and growing season here for some reason I can almost never get tomatoes to properly ripe on the vine. However, if I just harvest them when they are the right size but still green or half green and let them ripen on the kitchen counter in complete darkness they will soften up, redden up and taste amazing (just add salt and pepper).

Random complaint but Microsoft apps on Android are the only ones I use that simply do not behave as they should. Teams captures the audio channel and I have to manually close the app before anything else can play audio. Notifications don't work when you tap them, instead just opening an empty shell when I then have to close manually (Teams and Outlook do this).

It's very frustrating that a company of that size and tech 'prestige' can't make native apps and instead rely on these crutches like Electron. The difference is very noticeable in the user experience.
Growing up, money was tight so we shopped at Aldi. American and European Aldi are a bit different, US is more budget conscious and it’s reflected in product quality. So I always thought I just didn’t like vegetables. In my early 20’s I realized vegetables vary in quality, and that I in fact did like a lot of vegetables! Tomatoes, lettuce, broccoli, love it if it’s the good quality stuff

New Thinkpads in 2017 (T470/X270/etc.) were still using 7th generation Intel chips, so it is for some users a forced update after eight years.

That said, people have hacked the leaked OEM version of Windows 11 to install on to 2010 or 2011 vintage computers, so there’s a reasonable chance Microsoft will not make 2018 era computers a hard cutoff for Windows 11 installs. Even if they do, there will probably be workarounds around allowing it to be installed it on Kaby Lake and older CPUs; we know right now Windows 11 will install on an older computer without significant issue (with some hacking, depending on just how old the computer is).

For the record, I find the three year lifecycle for Android phones very annoying. I may have my next phone be an iPhone (they can have 5-6 year support lifetimes, if I get a brand new model when it comes out) or hope the Fairphone becomes available in the US.

For me, the effect is less (or possibly just less noticable) after a few weeks. But some coffee or tea gets me going pretty quickly and the effects wear off.

I've always been a slow morning person, so 30-60 minutes to start feeling normal is on par for me, so it doesn't really affect my timetable, but you may have a different schedule in mind.

My morning bowel movements when I take magnesium l-threonate are amazing, however, which used to slow me down even more on a typical morning.
> most green vegetables like broccoli are 90% water.

That's super misleading. The nutrition facts for broccoli here [1] gives 89% water but actually over 1/3rd of broccoli by mass is carbs, fats, proteins or fibers. And comparing raw broccoli to cooked chicken is deceptive - cooking broccoli obviously gets rid of a lot of it's water depending on how you cook. Moreover, comparing gram-to-gram, I'm sure broccoli is less filling, but a lot of people care more about calorie-to-calorie.

Such obvious truths are unfortunately incompatible with individual instincts to procreate.
I wonder how you would react if you discovered that your information diet was being curated to ensure you were not exposed to information contradictory to what someone else believes is in your best interest. If it's not okay to impose on you,it's probably not okay to impose it on others.
This is really exciting. I might have missed this in the documentation, but is there any way of grouping/tagging together a set of functions, just so that conceptually similar functions can be browsed together? For traditional languages a folder/package/file performed this functionality.
The GI side effects of metformin are usually short lived. They tend to last about a week or so after starting the drug or increasing the dose. Some people do have longer lasting side effects, but metformin is one of the best tolerated drugs we have.

The backup systems relied on natural gas, which was cut off, and/or secondary electrical which was disabled by Texas regulators.

I also wonder if those backups didn’t anticipate having to run the machines as well as keeping ambient temperature up.
Well, hard to define closer as a simple dimension — but in certain things perhaps Rust — eg. SIMD is notoriously bad in C. Also, multithreading — which is not exactly a new thing either and don’t forget about pointer aliasing — though that latter is more of an optimization possibility.
Fortran may also be considered as another candidate for having SoA over AoS which can potentially be more cache-friendly.

But my point was more like, there is no reasonable difference between eg. C and another language that compiles down to machine code — the old saying that a seasoned C programmer can reasonably guess the created machine code of a program is no longer true with today’s heavily optimizing compilers and the amount of magic happening is almost comparable to eg. Haskell.
This is the most useful review article I've found (for U.S. law), though it's from 2014: "Death By Bullying: A Comparative Culpability Proposal", https://digitalcommons.pace.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=...

The overall conclusion I get from it is that homicide or manslaughter charges could be brought in principle, but prosecutions are rare, and successful ones even more rare. The article author proposes a legal standard for culpability, but it's not clear it's been adopted by any courts. There are also some examples of lesser charges, like harassment or stalking, but they're also rare. In addition, several states have passed specific criminal bullying and/or cyberbullying laws that might allow easier conviction on a lesser charge, but they haven't been widely tested yet.
Thank you! Was considering emailing but figured you would notice soon enough.
Microsoft's PC health check software checks this, why wouldn't the actual OS installer?

For the record, none of my PCs support Windows 11. My desktop has no TPM and too old of a CPU. My laptop has TPM 2.0 but it's CPU isn't supported.
Let's say we have `a, b, d : 0` and `c : 999`. Then `a := b :>> c := d` according to your rule is well-typed and has a security level `999`.

Now let's say I have a conditional expression `private : 999`.

The following program typechecks according to the rest of the restrictions. In particular, `999` from `private` is less than or equal to the `999` from the sequenced command.

ITE private $
a := b :>>
c := d

But we just leaked data because if the value of `a` (which we can observe) is not `b`, then we know that `private` was 0 (aka. false). This should never happen because `a` is public and `private` is private.

The intuition here is that the lower the security level a command has the more public the conditional has to be. Otherwise, private data would *influence* public data which we can then observe to deduce something about the private data.

> it seems like you could leak info by just assigning two variables, where one is always public.

I didn't quite follow this bit. But if you elaborate, I'm happy to discuss.
From the limited perspective I have, I guess you are looking for a “scale up”, that is, an established startup with steady funding that is profitable, but either too small or not-quite-there for an IPA or an acquisition to happen yet, with about 100 employees. I have worked for such a company and know others with a similar business, and it’s the best from both worlds in my opinion; you get the structure, financial freedom and delegation of a bigger company, and the flat hierarchy and freedom to do whatever the fuck you want from startups.
Can recommend!

I'm not sure why you are being downvoted. These carve-outs in 'freedom of speech' will most definitely be abused if history is any guide.
Great answer, thank you!
When Windows XP PCs started to become obsolete, one way to extend their life (at least for people that only used them to browse the web) was to install Firefox. I've actually helped someone do this when their freemail provider stopped supporting IE 8. There's people for whom a new computer is an expensive purchase and they will use it until the wheels fall off.

There are a few comments / questions about yeast in the cooments. According to this [1], quoting:

Abdala, basado en la formulación de la proteína RBD (Dominio de Unión al Receptor) recombinante adyuvado en hidróxido de aluminio, emplea la proteína que se expresa en la levadura Pichia pastori, con un diseño que utiliza el RBD ACE 2, es decir, es el motivo que une al receptor y a través del cual el virus penetra a la célula e infecta al individuo.

Abdala, based in the formulation of the RDB protein (receptor binding domain) adjuvanted* recombinant* in aluminum hydroxide, employs / uses the protein that expresses in Pichia Pastori yeast, with a design that uses the RDB AC 2, meaning, is the motiv that unites the receptor and thru wich the virus penetrates the cell and infects the subject.

* & * I don't even know what these words mean in Spanish. I used G Translate for these 2 (I'm obviously way out of my pay grade here)

I think it's more that I've met so few developers who don't end up using Python in any form (scripting or actual application development). So if you never actually do anything in Python then sure it's not going to be relevant.
Can any VS Code extensions be used in Onivim 2? Despite appearances, Onivim isn't a VS Code fork, it doesn't use Electron, and it's not written in Javascript-- it just happens to take substantial inspiration from VS Code's UI.

I accept your position, and perhaps my examples for a difficult formula was not difficult enough — my point is more along the line that the underlying structure of a formula becomes more easily visible with shorter symbols — and for syntactic manipulation one can more easily see patterns emerge.

I was fat and had serious joint and muscle pain and major migraines.

I started taking high levels of magnesium. My joints and muscles improved drastically. Migraines cut in half.

I became able to exercise a lot more.
I’m still fairly fat because I eat to much. Plus side effects of other medications.

But I’m a lot stronger now since I can work out so much more.

Best trick of all. Stop eating sugar / carbs.
What Is Internet Computer Protocol (ICP)?
I've read through half of it as well. I think it's pretty good but poorly edited somehow because of how long it's taken me to get through even just the first half.

So ultimately I don't think it will break my top list even when I finish it.
I work with a large group of engineers that manage a very large array of infrastructure. We see weird Terraform issues all the time. There's a multitude of ways that Terraform gets into a bad state and has to be fixed manually (in production). Even a Terraform expert runs into them, because it's not necessarily an issue "with Terraform", but with a buggy provider, or some feature of Terraform which wasn't tested well in certain scenarios, etc.

Terraform allows for too much complex configuration/operation, the codebases change too frequently, there's not enough testing, and even extremely simple operations fail in a way that can't be reverted automatically. In practice the tool is clunky, complicated, difficult, and unreliable. Whenever I run "terraform apply" I know I am rolling dice, and plan for how I'm going to recover everything if I need to (which was what Terraform was supposed to prevent!)

But at the same time, if lots of people need to manage the same infra, you really have to use some common tool. Bash scripts are a great fix for small isolated problems, but they don't scale.
1) The Universe is endless in all directions, time, and scale, so there is no unbreakable particle or field. Fundamental fields(math) are defined(math) as fundamental(math). It looks like I need to switch to OpenGL to explain my point. 3D fields in OpenGL are defined as fundamental for OpenGL, but they are not fundamental for Universe.

Modern OpenGL can be used to make astonishing predictions, but, IMHO, studying of OpenGL will not make me better at physics. However, if I will learn chemistry, optics, geology, fluids, mechanics, etc., then I will be able to make OpenGL better.

Modern math apparatus in physics does astonishing predictions, but it cannot explain the underlying mechanic.

IMHO, the solution is to make physical models, instead of mathematical models, of quantum objects, and study them with our own eyes, because it's easy to bend spacetime in math or OpenGL, but impossible in real physical world, so it forces making of realistic physical models.

2) I generated few ideas:

Maybe, a huge wave passed through our Visible Universe, and caused a pressure drop in the ideal fluid AKA Physical Vacuum, so bubbles are popped up, and they are merging now from subatomic particles and up to supermassive black holes.

Maybe, we are embedded into a huge massive object, so gravitation and EM are caused by rotation of this object, so gravitational attraction slowers rotation.

I don't know.

But, "energy is stored in 3D array of values, because 3D arrays are defined as foundational for mathematical apparatus of physics" - WTF it means?
Similar to how it tried to aggressively push UWP? No doubt some developers will get sucked into the hype, but I bet the majority of Windows developers that have stayed on Win32 are not going to change. If MS tries to deprecate Win32, they will lose all their big business customers too. And WINE is so good that it got attention from MS' lawyers.

As a long-time Win32 developer myself, I like the fact that my work is usable on anything from Win95 and up. Backwards compatibility has long been the key strength of MS, so them doing stuff like this recently is playing with fire.

I'm wary of "the New Microsoft" far more than the old.
I meant the second. I can't say that happens in all cases, but I've specifically checked this for some food items at Dollar Tree, and the ingredient lists differed in those cases.

It was about two years ago when I checked. I noticed an item in the refrigerated section at Dollar Tree, where the item was $1, yet I had just purchased the same item at the grocery for more money. I purchased the item at Dollar Tree and compared the ingredients.

Then I checked one other item, as it occurred to me. It was idle curiousity more than anything else. I know there much be some difference between the item at a dollar store and the item at a non-dollar store, either expiration, item size, item ingredients, or something else.
Very much depends what type of resin you use. The one I use has practically no odor and is water washable. In addition, there is an air filter(which is annoyingly sold separately) for that printer so even less of an issue. I was initially planning to shove it in the basement but after a few prints I figured it doesn't make a lot of sense.
Pretty sure those are necessary with the extenders when you want to sum larger things like integrals. Can't remember the details, though.
They are being downvoted because there are a scarily growing number of people who believe that as long as the tyranny is "on their side" then it is ok.

Yes, yes, yes, we all know this. That is not what this thread is about. By replying to one comment in isolation, you are completely missing the context. For clarification of what it is about, read the rest of the thread.
Cool - I assumed it was true but couldn't find any evidence. Thanks!
Yes, the startup time is amazing. You can build from source if you want to try it out without paying. I bought a license and I've been using it on and off for personal projects but it is still in development so don't expect everything to be perfect. Still really good though, actually feels like (is) Vim with a modern UI.
If infection rates were double digit, the "think of what we could save" argument might perhaps deserve some consideration. But as it stands, I feel the only warranted concern is the well-being of Covid survivors.
One has to protect what has added value qualities. Industrial products made by immigrant families in the US or Canada is still industrial, without any real value other than a name, and some generic protein and calories count.

Drive around and you'll find small batched terroir quality products all over North America. These are products that should protected and promoted all the way to icon land, not bad imitations of something 100 times better and originally made abroad.

Big business people are always after the lowest "not hanging anymore" fruits, the ones splattered on the soil. They need to up their game and do better. Much better.

Added value quality food (or else) products are sought after by many million Americans willing to pay a premium. Can't you smell the money trail?
I wouldn't say it has failed, but succeeded. The framing of the "marketplace of ideas" has really always been about paving over power dynamics and justify continuing harm by appealing to something external. In your marketplace of ideas, the hundreds of abstract individuals that are hararassers are equally as valid as one abstract individual just trying to live their life. It's working as intended.
I love YouTube shorts, but it's such a bizarre miss that they don't work on Chromecast. I want to sit and watch them on my TV while I eat lunch, but Google physically prevents them from playing on Chromecast through the app. You instead need to cast your screen, which is an absolutely wild product choice.

I get it, the form factor is weird (aspect ratio), you either need user input or autopay, and latency isn't super low. But it seems absurd that it's simply not available at all.

YouTube, amazingly, has the absolute worst Chromecast integration of any app on my phone. Netflix, YouTube music, Amazon prime, Google tv: all work just fine. YouTube feels like theirs was outsourced and built with code samples by a junior dev.
This "hate speech" is the modern heresy. The trick is tired, but still works surprisingly well: invent a gibberish buzzword, e.g. "truth denialism", pass a law to ban the buzzword without specifying what the buzzword means, generously extend the meaning of the buzzword and label anyone you disagree with a "truth denialist". It's a form of hijacking democratic societies.
I expect the protein is being described as recombinant (the yeast has been altered to produce it) and the vaccine is adjuvanted with the aluminum hydroxide.
this is probably a good point to quote the article

"The proposed law would likely run afoul of the First Amendment in the U.S., but despite popular misconceptions Canada is actually its own country."

Contrary to popular (American) opinion laws regulating speech are in fact not a new and authoritarian invention but have existed in the so called 'West' for literally centuries.

To have a rational discussion about this when it comes to countries that don't happen to be the US, like in this case, it would probably be good to not act as if these laws were somehow conjured up out of nothing. The United Kingdom, probably having a claim to be one of the world's longest lasting liberal democracies, has laws concerning speech that in many cases go well beyond laws on continental Europe, so any discussion about speech in the Western (and even specifically Anglo) tradition probably should be had on that ground, rather than just vague pointing about slippery slopes.
You might be delivering 100% or you might not. You might be more productive at 32 than 40. It’s not necessarily linear. At the end of the day you need to provide a perceived value beyond whatever your rate of comp

At 48 hours you have a similar situation, if you are hourly those 8 hours cost the company an extra 50% per hour so you better be providing appropriate value for the overtime rate they are paying you.
What did Kiwi Farms do? I tried looking up their comments on him[1] but only sampled some at random rather than reading all of their comments. It certainly seems cruel and mean spirited. Some more recent comments are flippant or celebrating the suicide - but it isn't clear to me that they did anything other than be mean to Near online.

Am I missing something?

SteamOS isn't really a thing anymore. There's been no update in about 2 years. It's possible Valve is still putting some effort there, but hope for its future is pretty much just speculation at this point even if Valve hasn't abandoned it completely.
