As a long time industry veteran: the important portion is how the asset pipeline works and whether I can port existing assets or acquire new ones.

Assets are all that matters.
The researcher himself is directly quoted saying things like “revolutionising water disinfection technologies around the world”. If that’s not backed up by it being feasible or valuable commercially, then the criticism is spot on.
Yes, but that still doesn't mean that the regulations shouldn't be on the dealer. Even if the dealer is using their own product. The dealer is still the one doing more damage.
In my experience the good teams have truly exceptional people and the bad teams are filled with people who would be superstars elsewhere. But yeah this isn't proof and hey maybe I'm just saying that because I'm not that good , which is definitely possible.
>people are going to be angry.

sure. I reckon they are.
For antivirals, the hypothesis is a viral infection that the amyloids and tau are responses to. A study in Taiwan showed promising results.

For TDAP, nobody knows. All we have is a flabbergastingly strong signal from statistical analysis of the US Veterans' Administration entire cohort from 2012-2018. Is it the tetanus, the diphtheria, the pertussis vaccine? An "inactive" ingredient? Something else very, very strongly correlated with administration of booster, such as a more active lifestyle? If it is anything at all, it seems to be the only thing that works, other than maybe herpes treatment.
Yeah, this is a fair assessment.

The main article is sensationalistic and overblown.
The news article makes me wonder if you could do the same thing except give someone else's address. Mob justice isn't known for calm and logical analysis.
A) We could address this by charging at the refinery for fuel products, rather than at the oil well for crude.

B) I definitely think carbon capture should earn credits in any carbon pricing system.

C) That's just another kind of inefficiency. Same comment applies as above.

Good catch. Curiosity got me and I focused on the distance aspect, missing the forest for the trees, so to speak.
When I was very little, the bathroom in my house had a small plastic earwax irrigator in the cupboard below the sink. I did not know what it was, and my parents wouldn't give me an explanation beyond "leave that alone and dont't play with it." One day curiosity got the better of me and I have it a squeeze. Well, it wasn't empty. A while bunch of ants came out. Good thing no one tried to actually use it.

Quite. There's a term, often used by engineers (Chartered, obviously): "time served". C is time served - it might be a bit weird and start dribbling for no reason but it quite literally runs a huge part of the world.

Rust is not time served and it needs to grow up. Initial signs are positive. We are at the cooing stage over a pretty child that may either be the Messiah (a Naughty Boy) or decide to throw its poo at its parents and stick to licking windows.

Time will tell.
> The team showed that as the catalyst brought the hydrogen and oxygen together to form hydrogen peroxide, it simultaneously produced a number of highly reactive compounds, known as reactive oxygen species (ROS), which the team demonstrated were responsible for the antibacterial and antiviral effect, and not the hydrogen peroxide itself.

> The catalyst-based method was shown to be 10,000,000 times more potent at killing the bacteria than an equivalent amount of the industrial hydrogen peroxide, and over 100,000,000 times more effective than chlorination, under equivalent conditions.

Basically, I'm getting the highly reactive ROS are the key point here, they're creating them in situ so they're able to be exploited where as standing h2o2 is likely much less reactive.

The order of magnitude gains are easy to grasp if you take into consideration the literal hours you need to wait for chlorine or similar to sterilize water. If there is a way to speed that up to near instant your gains are going to be relatively immeasurable.
Again I requested concrete examples. Please post what he said and what's actually word for word in the summary you are claiming is biased. It's really easy to talk abstractly and say whatever you want. I think you'll find that once you try enumerate this, it's hard to defend Sanger's assertion that the articles are clearly biased towards liberal positions.

Appreciate the correction. I assumed it because of the last line "More Information on Chatcontrol: www.chatcontrol.eu" - that link literally redirects back to his own website.
I prefer this harmless invisible "addiction" than what to me seems the inevitable consequence of a collective distancing from caffeine, the rise on alcohol consumption.

I'm curious how well it does with dirty water, one of the big issues in the camping context is sediment in the water ruin the efficacy of all forms of water treatment.
a friend from the area insists that judd was involved in drug trafficking and that the (frankly mundane) art was a pretense or money laundering mechanism. i've spent time in the region and it is not difficult to spot people who are obviously involved.

I got married in Marathon and my wife and I spend a lot of time in and around Marta. That part of West Texas is pretty unique/strange for a number of reasons. I would hesitate before drawing any parallel between the area and anything else. Terelinqua is even worse/better, the population consists of corporate burnouts and bandits pretty much.
I started in the industry 7 years ago without a degree and am doing well.
I don't understand the relevance of your point. The point I originally asked for clarification about was the use of a mutex for a "polling variable".

Java has had volatile variables since the year 2000, I don't see how it's cheating that Java provided a standardized way of accessing a synchronized value before C and C++ did. Can you elaborate on your point that it's cheating?

In C and C++, for 10 years now, there is a standard library providing atomic data types and atomic instructions. Prior to the standardization one used platform specific atomic facilities. boost has provided cross-platform atomic operations that work on virtually every platform since 2002. Prior to 2002 there were no multicore x86 processors. There would have been mainframe computers that were multicore, is it your argument that code written for those mainframes are of relevant use today by fairly typical C and C++ developers?

At any rate, at no point did any of Java, C, or C++ require the use of a mutex in order to properly synchronize access to a "polling variable". Atomic operations were widely available to all three languages in various ways and would have been the preferred method.
The IRL drama lore feels almost as sprawling and convoluted as the Homestuck universe lore itself.

Is this actually sustainable to build a business on? Constant social/company drama, but instead of peddling it as interactive content in itself (like TMZ, reaction channels, etc, though these Homestuck drama explanation videos/blogs come off the same way), it is the foundation for the entire community that keeps the interaction and discussion going, to keep it relevant? There's truly a lot of talent in the Homestuck community and still steam in the brand so I assume it still has inertia and will move forward.
Yes, I know a number of people who have
now this makes sense. (I'm not saying it's good or right, just that it 's now understandable how this bizarre situation happened)

4Chan is the devil you think you know but don't really.
I don't see the problem. Isolating one variable per experiment is helpful to ensure you are appropriately testing your thesis. It makes sense to me that not all science is immediately commercializable and that many of the papers never directly contribute to commercial application. It seems to me that commercialization is a distinct step in the process of discovery and production, which must often come after the initial process of scientific exploration.

The idea is that absolute improvement does not change the fact that people are seeing some are much better off than themselves.

It's about why people want to be elites.

As for the inflation, that's irrelevant.

I should have read the comments closely. But it remains the case that such technicality is not at the right direction.
The wikipedia article you linked to only has one death, and it was an uninvolved person. In the 2015 Oklahoma swatting incident, the swatting victim shot the police chief, then surrendered. The cop survived and the swatting victim was not charged.[1] My guess is that the police really screwed up and didn't announce themselves before busting down his door.

That's a good perspective, and a light I hadn't considered it in. The discomfort I have with 4chan is pretty similar to my discomfort with twitter, facebook, et autres. I guess with 4chan there is perceivably less accountability in the event of the harmful situations similar to your description, but I have zero real basis for that belief.

They might not look educated to the educated of the time, but laborers who had no schooling wouldn't necessarily know. They'd probably be really superstitious and suspicious if the person didn't show proper deference to the gentry and the religious authorities, though.
Grows the pie, but only for people on the right side of the inequity divide. I would say tech is winner take all more than almost any other industry I can think of.

So for the people feeling the pressure of the inequality divide, there's little difference between these two. Unless they join the ranks of lawyers or engineers, there's nothing in it for them monetarily speaking.
Is it possible to exert pressure on the regime without also exerting pressure on the people? It's obviously sad collateral but IMO avoiding the Iranians getting a nuke is worth the cost. Undercutting the effort seems the worst of all worlds with most Iranians continuing to pay a high price for longer.

Thank you for this datapoint. I didn't realize that.

I live in a small town myself, relatively speaking (St. Louis isn't exactly a tech hub), so I was thinking that might guard me somewhat. But, my follower count keeps growing for some reason, and stuff like this has been more and more on my mind.

I appreciate it. If you have any links to further info, I'd be curious to read. Otherwise, no worries.

Part of that change is artificial. Mortgage interest rates have plummeted, which have caused prices to go up. The real median mortgage payment is about the same over the last 50 years.
I didn’t learn this by being smart or well-to-do; this is the sort of guerrilla warfare that my working class father taught me. Street smarts take you far in life.

Also I think we have lost something when decisions are made far away from the consequences. If there is a decision made in SF that affects a population in Wichita, where the company has no ties or physical presence, it’s hard to empathize on either end. A lot of commerce depended on trust between parties that could see face to face. That’s sorely missing these days.

Sometimes hydro is inconveniently on the other side of two national borders, as here, where Paraguay is on the other side of Argentina. There are good reasons to stay on pleasant terms with Argentina and Paraguay, but avoiding blackouts is among the less-good reasons.
>That's against CPI inflation.

Yes, that's implied. If you get to choose your basket you can make inflation seem arbitrarily high/low.

>Housing, education and financial products including health insurance are not included in CPI measures -- https://www.bls.gov/opub/ted/2021/consumer-price-index-up-4-...

Why would you lie like that?

https://www.bls.gov/cpi/tables/relative-importance/2020.htm

Housing: 42.385% of CPI-U

Education: 3.033% of CPI-U

"financial products" (whatever that means, the closest I could find is "Financial services"): 0.229 of CPI-U

health insurance: 1.209% of CPI-U
In other words, the use of standard measures that were portable and external to a society's local norms tracked closely the diffusion of settled agricultural civilisations and specialist societies. This is unsurprising.
I think the point is the science can be useful in that endeavor by demonstrating a new approach one can take. That’s not to say it’s all that would be required. It’s unreasonable and incorrect to expect a full commercial solution to come directly out of a set of lab experiments.

Radicalness is very easily seen on both sides of the US political landscape. You just have to open your eyes...

The radical camps on both sides are all that's in the news it seems... I supposed the normal non-radical causes don't drive as many clicks or something.

If you watched only the news, you'd think most Americans want to ban all airplanes, prevent anyone from voting, print money into oblivion, bring back slavery, and that everyone hates this country. Well, the 4th of July celebrations we just saw prove otherwise... these are radical talking points and most Americans do not sympathize with the radicalness of either ideology.

> Honestly, looking at how Republicans are divorcing themselves from reality

I think both Republicans and Democrats say this about each other... and have been saying it about each other since the parties were formed... and will continue to say this about each other for eternity.

I really want a browser flag like "I DO NOT CARE ABOUT TRACKING" that auto-accepts.
Yes, I agree.

Ultimately, at least at the time, there was no other option that had better compatibility. Now I suppose you could use MaybeUninit<#[repr(C)] enum> or something. Realistically I don't have much confidence in rustc properly matching enum sizes with C implementations that don't follow the typical behaviour here, so I doubt that would be worth it.

I guess the linux kernel is generic enough that it might end up on some such platforms, I guess in that context I'd just bite the bullet and accept undefined behavior if passed an unexpected enum variant, it's not like that should happen in a coherent system like the linux kernel (vs my use case which was wrapping some library that definitely might chose to add enum variants).

I agree with that assertion: that universities are making up marketing BS and hurting people.

As a gateway to a high-paying job, a University degree is (in many cases: NOT ALL), more of a signal that the candidate is white, upper-middle or higher class, likely to not have a criminal record, likely to not have problems with mental illness (never mind substance abuse), and that's mainly what they're looking for, and why that gateway became such a high-demand commodity that it commanded a price that is often as much as buying a house. (easy access to student loans also probably played a role).

I say this as a person who thinks that every American should have an opportunity to go to college and get appropriate training for the career of their choice (as long as they otherwise meet qualifications). I think it should be "free" (and I think that business should pay into a tax-pool to fund the training of their workforce).

But I think that universities should ABSOLUTELY be tied down in how much they can charge for degrees, based on the actual economic value of that degree. If they train 100,000 underwater basketweavers, who make on average $15000/yr, then they sure as hell should not charge $100,000 for that degree, and they shouldn't be allowed to.

This market is horribly broken, and I don't think that it is presently workable without some much stronger government intervention. Otherwise, no player in this game has any incentive to change what it's doing. Since the government has a stake in having a viable and productive national labor-force, it's literally a matter of national security that this resource receive appropriate investment.

The alternative is to continue our downward spiral.

You conveniently left out the rise of the industry known as software engineering.
This is an interesting idea, asking the user to share data at the end of the conversion flow, as long as it remains opt-in. It can possibly use some more customization though, and perhaps an option for a preview of the data being transmitted for full clarity.

It's vulnerable to implementation changes in the browser network traffic API, though, because the "firewall" isn't a real firewall (just something intercepting fetches and such).

I think it could further be improved by sending a no-op script when the user sends a do-not-track header, which clearly indicates their preference already, saving the power it takes to parse the 30KB of JS and the additional network requests associated with it.
> There is actually no real point of rate limiting the creation of new blocks…

To avoid fracturing the network and wasting significant amounts of work, the time between blocks needs to be much longer than the time it takes to propagate newly mined blocks to most of the nodes.

There are also concerns about the minimum amount of storage and bandwidth required to participate as a full node, and how that may drive increasing centralization. Storage can be mitigated somewhat with better pruning of old, spent transactions, but bandwidth is a harder problem facing any attempt to increase the core transaction rate.
For that matter, the harm from excess sugars in just about any non-caffeinated, non-alcohol beverage almost certainly outweighs any harm from caffeine dependence.
I used RescueTime when I was freelancing. It's an app you install and it tracks what you're working on down to the second. It works by reading the titlebar of your current app, so it works well for development, and you can set up filters in the web dashboard to divide by projects and so on. Of course there's a privacy trade-off to consider as it's a SaaS.
