The reality is that most "martial arts" are mostly performative, as the principles of actually useful hand to hand combat are fairly universal and anything that isn't effective and efficient "evolves" out quickly. E.g. wildly flaying weapons, static Bruce Lee style kicking/punching only h2h fighting styles, etc. - spectacular for movies and demonstrations, but little use in actual fighting.

So anything that's "lost" is just as easily replaced by someone else coming up with another ritualized choreography.

Take aikido. Why are there so many people doing that? It's not because it has anything to do with actual fighting. It's like why panda bears are still alive - if it were to be left to nature, they'd die out soon, the main reason we have so many is because they look cute to humans and we protect and encourage their existence.

Many managers will create pressure upon the workers no matter how hard you work. So working 110% is only encouraging them to demand 130%, etc. You just can't win.

In your specific situation, it would be good to give 80% to 90%. Not take the haranguing personally, see it as the managers trying to impress their bosses by being relentlessly demanding.

Use whatever time and resources you have to research and line-up your next job so as soon as you are able to move on, you have a far better job to go to.

Good luck and take care of your mental health, making sure you have time out for some quality personal life. Hopefully you will have even more of that in your next job.

There is innovation in the crypto space but it's not being talked about or covered in mainstream media. Not yet at least.

Just because the author has fallen victim to the media oligopoly and is thus unable to see any innovation past all the flashy CNN, Facebook and Cointelegraph interfaces, doesn't mean there is no innovation occuring.

I'm involved in an innovative project right now which is creating real world economic value. It's small but we've already proved the concept and are profitable. The blockchain adds undeniable value to our use case.

When people finally find out about all the innovation that has been going on outside of their awarenesses, it's going to be a shock and they will regret it.

ERROR: UndefVarError: x not defined

I think the reason for having x and y in different scopes like this is that if the range of y depended on the value of x, this wouldn't turn into an array, where you need all dimensions to have regular length. BTW, this extends to arbitrary dimensions.

I take it multidimensional arrays aren't common data structures in Haskell?
I doubt this - it is impossible to kill 10% of the population in the game. As anyone can see on the final screen, max number of deaths in the game is about 150000, which is 1.5% (Czechia population is approximately 10M)

Of course you can but there will be trade-offs.

Those procedures (tests, vaccinations) can be entirely voluntary (as they are right now).

However, then you could be facing a situation where not enough people get vaccinated or tested for curbing the spread of the virus.

Societies will have to decide if they’re fine with the consequences that entails.

Personally, I think that lockdowns and any other mandatory measures should be lifted once everyone’s vaccinated who wants to be vaccinated.

Others - and societies as a whole - might disagree, though, which from my point of view would be a major problem, especially if continued lockdowns then are still considered the only viable alternative.

I disagree even to that. Any numbers for that statement, at least rough dimensions?

And, given world average rising a few more °C, and we get a similar extreme weather condition persisting for few days like described here, but where wet bulb goes not just close/slightly but significantly over 35°C, what will that numbers be in poor.. but heck, even in rich countries?

You cannot be serious..

The problem is deeper than that. I tried to persuade someone here that mastodon had the potential to grow as quickly as Twitter. Their response was “we don’t want it to,” more or less.

And probably with good reason. Not everything needs to be the largest thing it can be. It’s why bean sprouts are different from oak trees, as someone once put it.

That can be argued for coins with premines (such as all PoS coins), but PoW coins with no premine or instamine or dev tax, where all coins go to miners, offer no financial reward to the coin creators. Such coins are rather rare though. And ones that do not handicap later miners relative to early miners even rarer.

Ever since cmb sold to netgate the Pfsense project has been run by people who I suspect are working hard to find a way to stop releasing open source versions.

FYI, my observations as an outsider are the project went through three phases of owners:

BSD Perimeter is owner and starts open source fork creating open source releases = CMB and Scott as founders.

Electric Sheep Fencing ownership is a result of CMB taking more of the day to day while Scott bows out and Netgate starts funding things / sinking hooks in. Open source continues to be important and CMB is in charge for the most part.

Netgate ownership completes obtaining full ownership / gets their hooks into every bit of the project. We see annoying screen about licensing and they start nonsense with OPNSense to flex their tiny muscles.

FYI netgate hardware isn’t bad and you get stellar support for what is currently an open source product but they have worked hard to fracture the hard won trust CMB had been building up in the community.

Yes, but I really don't see the usecase for letting something potentially remote and untrusted to a serial device. How many people do actually need that? (Limited) filesystem access for web applications is also kind of dubious, outside of the trusty upload form.
In this case its super easy - Great Britain, a specific state next to continental Europe. Punishment as such can be done ie financially via direct aid. Building schools and hospitals. You name it.

But this would be a direct admission how monstrously they fucked up this world for centuries and that's something no politician will admit, no matter what they think personally. Also, we talk about most of western Europe here (GB, France, Spain, Portugal, Netherland, Belgium, Germany, Denmark, Italy). US also had its colonies like Philippines.

Been hoping for more of this for years. We stare at diffs all day yet we have to accommodate the computer by understanding that the parenthesis it claims was changed wasn’t actually changed, there was just another set of parentheses added. There’s of course limits to how much a diff tool can extract meaning from two pieces of content, but structure and perhaps even heuristics like “new function was added here, maybe the curly brace belongs with that and not the old function” would certainly help.

the trial design for that was extremely negligent. Phase 1 dosages - which should be low for first-in-man - far exceeded what was tested in animals by mg/kg, resulting in the drug completely saturating its target receptor. Derek Lowe covered the story years back when it happened, my knowledge comes from him and wikipedia.

What you got is CFR 4%, which is highly plausible. As in reality, what you see as cases, are just confirmed cases.

IFR could be calculated only from the explanation only at the final screen, where the actual number of infections is estimated (it's several times higher than the confirmed cases)

We could legitimately say that in your game, the number of infected people was not 2.1M, but, including reinfections, there were up to 6.2M infections, according to experts’ theories. The game and your results only register the officially recorded infections (based on test data).
Neat!

That's actually how list comprehensions work in F#: that would become:

[for xs in xss do for x in xs -> x]

(where -> is a shorthand for do yield)
in practice (after 3 years of professional F#), when writing functional code i'd actually rather have the result first rather than last. I got used to reading code right to left with Haskell so that's what feels most natural to me

I usually use a straightened paperclip to poke a hole in my eardrum. Then I can simply use a water hose at high pressure to wash everything clean. The hole in the eardrum lets the water flow to your mouth via the Eustachian tube. Works everytime!
I would add that even IF the technology allowed to "scan" a crowd and actually detect instantly and reliably a (visible) gun, what "remedies" do you have handy?

I mean, it is not like at any school there is (or can be) a sort of SWAT team on alert and capable of an intervention in - say - 5 minutes.

And - cannot say on the specific 2018 shooting at that school - from what I understand the typical sequence is:

1) someone enters a school (or church, etc.) with a gun

2) as soon as a suitable target is within firing range, the shooting starts

and there is no more than 1, 2 or 3 minutes between #1 and #2 above, if the detection of the gun happens before (let's say outside when the shooter is approaching the building) you can maybe have a couple minutes more time.

And - even if you actually had this fast intervention armed team ready - can you only imagine the risks of false alarms/incidents with perfectly innocent people, it cannot possibly work.

Besides, there is no real need for facial recognition in this scenario, i.e. anyone, no matter who he/she is, should be detected if carrying a gun.
Valid point about laziness, it can make for head scratchy stack traces. A debugger works well for that as well. I think the lazy by default behaviour of many things in the stdlib is a questionable design decision, and try to use eager versions of functions my default (eg mapv and filterv).

bitcoin is the biggest invention in financial world since sliced bread - dematerialized, decentralized, censorship resistant, scarce, non-debaseable, with clear issuance schedule, asset and transaction platform with incentive structure that ensures security and functioning for hundred years.

Kannada is very influenced by Sanskrit, but still is a Dravidian lang. Is there more Sanskrit influence in Sinhala compared with Kannada?
Your statement is a contradiction.

Safety must be a factor, since "death and liability" is part of the calculation, as you state.
It really is sensor size.

For two sensors of the same resolution (= number of photosensitive cells), a physically larger sensor will have a greater number of photons hitting each photosite. This means better signal-to-noise ratio (fewer photons = base electrical noise is greater in relation to the signal) and dynamic range.

So inescapably, due to basic laws of physics, for two identically implemented sensors of the same resolution, the larger one will always be better.

This doesn't mean you can't make miniscule sensors with 41MP -- you certainly can. There can even be advantages to doing so. The Nokia PureView cameras were based on a novel concept that by capturing very high resolution images (41MP) you can then smooth out the noise (because it is essentially random) while retaining huge amounts of detail if you downsample them to a reasonable size (something like 12MP? I forget what it does exactly) in post-processing. It is a tradeoff -- you trade worse dynamic range for better detail -- but it worked really well for a smartphone at the time.

If you were to pixel peep the 41 MP files before downsampling they would look horrible, especially at higher sensitivities.
