I've used Tillamook and brown cow as starters and they've been fine for a second batch at least.

I don't strain mine, instead i chuck in like half a cup/gallon of dry milk. It's sort of the bass ackwards method. Then I part it up into quart Tupperware.
The claim is partly based on the fact that the majority of people stop producing lactase (the enzyme needed to digest milk sugar) at an early age.

Well aged cheese has little to no milk sugar, the cultures have eaten all of it. So, problem solved.

The single most important trick I remember for Lisp on stock hardware was implementing pointers to cons cells as pointers to the next byte, and doing car/cdr by -1(reg) and 3(reg) (or 7(reg) on a 64 bit machine). This automatically traps on non-conses without any extra cost.
If you live in the bay area and have ever been to a city council meeting where folks who are brilliant engineers propose terrible, shortsighted public policy for their town, you know "having 140+ IQ" does not make necessarily make you good at everything.
Don’t forget they sold the tiny HDD division to Hitachi (I believe) in like 1999 or 2000, which went on to earn billions from the iPod. Not a lot of good business decisions coming out of IBM.
> The network layer is the concrete

Even were one to accept that, it is an argument for net neutrality, not compelled carry of content to providers on the application layer.

I disagree with the claim that currently any one provider of the type typically characterized as a platform is sufficiently dominant in information control in any scope other for their control of their platform content to be equivalent to state censorship, and the argument for limiting their First Amendment rights is consistently that they don't sufficiently represent a viewpoint preferred by the government officials pushing to curtail their liberty. This isn’t government acting to restore free speech, is government acting to promote a partisan viewpoint by curtailing freedom of speech.
That second one... was ‘Cthulhu’ a keyword?
>To put a really fine point on it: If you don't have a functional uterus, shut the fuck up -- it's none of your business.

I don't really have a position on abortion, but I don't like this point at all. It says too much, I think.

Imagine there's a genocide in North Korea. I'm not North Korean, I'm not friends with anyone from North Korea. Does accepting this point mean that I have to accept that genocide in North Korea is none of my business and is above my criticism? And, if not, what distinguishes the two?

Should Biden not sign a pro-choice bill because he lacks a uterus and therefore is forbidden from taking a side?
Count me as interested!
I'm not understanding the case you're making. The most notable action by the NYT on yellowcake (the main citation in the Wikipedia article) was publishing the op-ed by Joe Wilson indicating that the evidence that Iraq was trying to buy yellowcake was forged. To me, that story has considerable resonance with the lab leak theory, in both cases certain factions within US intelligence trying to push the theory hard, and releasing "evidence" through indirect sources that cannot readily be verified. In the lab leak case, a major part of that role was played by the Wall Street Journal, which published the account of 3 Wuhan lab workers hospitalized in November 2019[1]. The part of Joe Wilson basically being played by Christopher Ashley Ford, in a letter cited elsewhere in this thread.

I don't know about copper-silicon interactions, but normally you'd bond to a metal pad, not to silicon directly.

I want to like LunarVim but the everything-lua is a bit overboard. Compare this

` vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<S-TAB>', ':bprevious<CR>', {noremap = true, silent = true})`

to

`nnoremap <silent> <S-TAB> :bprevious<CR>`

Why convert every single line of vimscript to a noisier lua statement?

The Packer manager seems a step back from vim-plug. Your configuration file is no longer the source of truth. Packer uses a global site directory for plugin as opposed to a local directory like vim-plug. Guess what? Neovim, paq also uses that directory. It's like the old days of plugins of installing everything globally. I had to do this after making a configuration change: :PackerSync, exit neovim, delete cache file, restart neovim, :PackerCompile. Believe me, forgetting a step has been an endless source of frustration.
Okay, I won't load Vice.com ever again. You've convinced me.
Those someones were CNN/MSNBC producers that decided not to give it the light of day because Trump talked about it first and that means it's unequivocally Bad™ and racist. All 24/7 news networks should be dissolved immediately. They are aggressive cancers that have been ruinous to society.

As a yogurt (and occasional milk and cheese) lover, I feel I should be upset at you. The thick, bloated sensation in my gut area points to a kernel of truth in what you're saying though...
> No self-respecting attorney would ever trust a third-party site with zero verification. You would literally get more accurate information from Twitter or Facebook.

Of course they wouldn't, but now they have leads they can reach out to and verify. And if they want to give testimony, and the court will hear them, then they can do so under the threat of perjury.

> All of these issues are only going to be correctly handled by legitimate authorities anyways, this site doesn't actually solve anything

Except this hasn't been the case. There are plenty of examples of abuse of power by law enforcement being brushed under the rug by authorities until the public or their team of lawyers pressured them into doing something about it.
I think it’s pretty clear that program synthesis good enough to replace programmers requires AGI.

This solely text based approach is simply “easy” to do, and that’s why we see it. I think it’s cool and results are intriguing but the approach is fundamentally weak and IMO breakthroughs are needed to truly solve the problem of program synthesis.
1. Don't shortcut on education. I wish I would have earned a more challenging degree, instead I got a 16 month AS and went to work. At 30 I have to decide whether or not it's worth going back to school.

2. Don't put your health aside. It's easy to say you'll workout later, eat healthier later, walk more later. Do it now and start routines that will carry your health into later stages of life.

3. Try things, meet people, and go places. Even if you'd rather be at home focusing on something. The stories and experience you earn will be worth more than the items you could buy. It's hard to buy back things you could have done but didn't.
Solar and wind can only generate depending on weather, which is now constantly changing in unexpected ways. Good luck building battery arrays that can power cities for weeks at a time during cloudy periods.

No, nuclear is the only way forward. We know it can work. We need to invest now. Solar and wind cannot power our collective needs, and even if they could, to build it out would require such a massive doubling-down in fossil fuels that the planet would be one big desert by the time we finished.
It depends on what you believe the purpose of YouTube is. Just because it's congressional testimony that doesn't mean it's actually credible or vetted information. We have elected officials in the US regularly spouting absolute nonsense, so it's not implausible that the same people would also bring witnesses in to spout the same absolute nonsense, whether it's vaccines causing autism or something else.
One niggle I have is that both Snowden and Assange get accused of being agents of Russia.

It's a ridiculously and simplistically too convenient argument and therefore attractive to anyone with the slightest bias against 'information I don't like' (or a tendency towards being a 'shoot the messenger' type of person).

That Assange / Wikileaks don't follow the same bias as the local US media, doesn't mean he's / they're an enemy agent. Thinking of the world in black and white like that is dangerously reductive.
I tried nvim-compe, but it explicitly doesn't support signatures (see https://github.com/hrsh7th/nvim-compe#does-not-work-function... ). So I installed the recommended lsp_signature.nvim and it's a bit of a mess. The UI for lsp_signature has enormous borders and doesn't match at all with the rest of compe.

Perhaps there are ways to tweak lsp_signature UI... but at this point, I chucked it all and went back to coc.nvim which does it all (suggestions, signatures, etc.) all with the same UI.

Make it like that--make it work with all UI out of the box and not make me dig through tons of plugins. That's my honest suggestion. Sorry I'm not joining a discord, etc. to give this feedback.

Excerpts from "Cities and Homeowner Associations" by Yale Professor
Robert C. Ellickson

"A third candidate for the exercise of decentralized power: the private homeowners association. The association, not the busi- ness corporation, is the obvious private alternative to the city. Like a city, an association enables households that have clustered their activities in a territorially defined area to enforce rules of conduct, to provide "public goods" (such as open space), and to pursue other common goals they could not achieve without some form of potentially coercive central authority.

Although they were relatively exotic as recently as twenty years ago, homeowners associations now outnumber cities. Developers create thousands of new associations each year to govern their subdivisions, condominiums, and planned communities.

I discern only one important difference between the two forms of organization-the sometimes involuntary nature of membership in a city versus the perfectly voluntary nature of membership in a homeowners association."

When it comes to Five Eyes, which one of the five actually executes an action is somewhat secondary. They plan and share the intel together, formally or informally (depending on legality).
That's correct - but I don't believe other public officials similarly lack the right to privacy even while operating in their official capacity.

who cares about missing functionality when compared with deletion of your data?

surely deletion of data is worse alternative to losing the ability to theme the web UI, or whatever.

this is why Microsoft has so many updates so often for Windows 10. security issues which require no intervention from the victim are VERY REAL, and when left alone, users will not update. this has been proven time and time again. A user can take no action and still be vulnerable today when they were not vulnerable yesterday. this WD instance is yet another example of users not knowing what is best for themselves; not knowing to update their devices, or to take their devices off of the internet.

there are secure, free, easy-to-setup ways to access files over the internet on a NAS which does not have internet access...

WD will hopefully force users to update in the future for internet connected devices, and for devices that go out of support, and can no longer receive updates, WD should take them off the internet as a final action, to protect the consumer.

THIS EXACT SITUATION is why updates should be forced on users.

nothing shoots itself in the foot as often or as thoroughly as a user that doesn't know what they're doing, believing they know what they're doing.
Long long ago I was full with excitement and expectation about every Gitlab monthly release just to go over the changelog and read about "the new cool stuff that I'll get to play with when I upgrade". Those days are gone now, sadly. Gitlab's changelog (the "New release" blog posts, that is) are unreadable. There are just too many features pushed in every release, on top of too many deprecations. Last time I tried to go point-by-point in their monthly release' changelog it took me ~2.5 hours just to carefully understand what was added / removed / deprecated.

Upgrading has turned from a joy to a completely fearful experience. And don't get me wrong, the omnibus installer is rock-solid and hasn't failed me once. The fear comes from me wondering if I have missed any of the dozens of things that got deprecated / changed and causing a major downtime in my Gitlab installation.

I wish Gitlab could slow down a little bit, but I totally understand this is not possible.
Fraud, which is generally what you are talking about, is one of the weakest parts of Libertarian thought. Specifically, they are very, very careful not to define some terms too tightly. I would bet quite a bit of money that, under a Libertarian regime, restrictions would be worse, not better, than what currently exists.

For example, "We hold that rights to property, including real property, are individual rights and, as such, are entitled to the same protections as all other individual rights. The owners of property have the full right to acquire, trade, control, use, dispose of, rent, collateralize, or enjoy their property in any manner, without interference, unless the exercise of their control infringes upon the valid rights of others."

"Infringing on the valid rights of others" is the very fine edge in this case that can slice just about anywhere you want to put it. I could, for example, build a feedlot next door to your house. Except, "Pollution of air, water, and land violates rights. Polluters, including government, should have strict liability for harms caused by pollution. Strict liability should regulate pollution, not government agencies nor arbitrary government standards." (On the other hand, what exactly is the strict liability for the harm of stench and effluvia? The loss of property value? How would you determine that?)
You can also setup undo-tree to show a diff for every change.
I think expecting citizens to pay if they want their government to be accountable may be at the root of this problem...

(For the record, I do fund the 3 city council members who are toughest on police accountability. And our city council is moving in the right direction on police accountability - the mayor is the biggest obstacle)
Wealth inequality existing is not a valid reason to pollute the earth with disposable products, and both issues can be tackled simultaneously.
Releasing information about a political candidate during an election is exactly the right time to release it. People should have as much information as possible when trying to make an informed decision when voting. Trying to make this into a partisan issue is just shifting the goal posts.
It’s probably not true about people with hundreds of millions or billions. Yet, intuitively I’d still assume that the digitization efforts of the last few decades would still result in a net-decrease in audit headcount.

Before the 2000s, it was not uncommon for average earners to get a visit from an auditor. Based on some of the publications by the IRS I have read, it’s now significantly less likely for average earners to get audited than high-income earners. Beyond that, the probability that a high-income earner is growing relative to average income earners.

Given the sheer volume of people in the average-and-below bucket, it makes intuitive sense that changes to the audit rate in that group would have an outsized impact on the overall headcount requirements.
Reminds me of a post here where it was some neural network chat/excuse generator. Just two people back and forthing about why they couldn’t meet up.

I lost it when one of the excuses was, 3 weeks later “oh, I can’t meet for lunch on July 29th, I have to go to my mother’s funeral”
Killing the messenger, really. This stuff has been documented in all sorts of fields, including pharmacology, neuroscience, oncology, you name it. I think there's been posts here on HN lately about replicability problems with AI research?

Psychology is fuzzy because of the subject matter, but (appropriately I think) it's also better at turning the microscope on itself (meta-analysis really has its origins in psychology).

Pretending this doesn't happen elsewhere is dangerous. Maybe the rates vary from field to field, but psychology isn't alone. If you applied that standard to every field there would be almost nothing left except maybe physics and some other closely related fields.

True, but almost a tautology: IQ tests are designed to be a metric of intelligence that is stable over time. They indeed have that property. Other correlates of intelligence are less stable. The everyday things by which one's intelligence is judged, like ability in tasks, can clearly be increased.

Why wouldn't you include benefits? Do you consider benefits when accepting a job? Would cops accept only base pay as compensation? I am paying for these benefits, and they are not, like $50/mo into your 401k benefits. They are golden-parachute, retire young, benefits. They are part of total compensation, and it would be dishonest to talk about cop pay without including them. Almost every police sergeant makes over $100k in total compensation. At least 10% make more than $200k.
I had The Penguin History of the World recommended to me for exactly this purpose a couple of years ago. It’s quite a tome and I haven’t had a chance to finish it, but so think anything aiming to capture so much in one book will be incredibly dense.

It gets better reviews than you might suspect given the title.
It's an interesting question. There are many such studies, but the focus has been on the negative.
Yes! I started a very similar process just this week.

Some of us have no choice but to multitask. I just learned about multiple desktops in Mac OS X and using something very similar to what you just described.

Each desktop gets its own browser window, emacs frame, Iterm window and a sticky. Sticky says what was the last thing I did and what is next. So context switching is easier.

I keep Outlook and Slack on a second monitor always visible. So far I am liking it. I am dreading the inevitable reboot.

I also wish Apple supported renaming the virtual desktops.
Do you have one article that you particularly like?
Usually, tagged memory at a hardware level, goes along with support for tagged operations in the processor.

In the LISP machines for example, you had an add instruction. Which would happily work correctly on pointers, floats, and integers depending on the data type, at the machine code level. Offers safety and also makes the the compiler simpler.

But where this really shines is in things like, well, lists, since the tags can distinguish atoms from pairs and values like nil, fairly complex list-walking operations can be done in hardware, and pretty quickly too. It also makes hardware implementation of garbage collection possible.

This is just my intuition, but I suspect, these days, it all works out to about the same thing in the end. You use some of the cache for code that implements pointer tagging, or you can sacrifice some die area away from cache for hardwired logic doing the same thing. It probably is in the same ballpark of complexity and speed.
Its disingenuous. We know what the theoretical best efficiency of desalination is, by thermodynamics. You can calculate it by assuming a completely ideal reverse osmosis setup. Compared with that, the efficiency would be less than 100%. This article takes 'efficiency' as compared to just evaporating the water and not reclaiming any energy on condensation.
I used to scald milk (in an Instant Pot this is the yogurt "high" setting) before making yogurt, but no longer do so.

Now I buy UHT pasteurized milk, which encompasses most organic milk, and simply run 18 hours of the Instant Pot "medium" setting. I start the instant pot, add two half gallons of milk, then pour in some Bulgarian yogurt as a starter and stir, then lid on and leave it alone until it beeps at me.

I normally get around three gallons of yogurt out of a one quart jar of the Bulgarian, which comes in a conveniently Mason-threaded quart jar, where I hoard the leftovers for storing my own yogurt.
> One niggle I have is that both Snowden and Assange get accused of being agents of Russia.

I've never seen that about Snowden except in regard to activities after taking io residence in Russia, and even then its usually more “Snowden is subject to influence by Russia” more than “...an agent of Russia”.

Assange is a different story, but the both the uncontroversial facts and the controversial detailed claims on which a conclusion about being a Russian agent might rest about Assange are different.
Too late is much better than "cannot work at all" which is what solar and wind give us. What makes you think solar and wind are up to the task right now? They cannot possibly power our collective needs, and even if they could, we have nowhere to store the energy at night or on cloudy/calm days.

Energy storage is not a solved problem, and it will not be a solved problem for the next decade. In the meantime, we need to build nuclear reactors now.
I feel your frustration. But I don't think removing IP law entirely is the right answer.
