With cancer drugs at least, efficacy trials are regularly scoped to a fairly narrow portion of the patient population along things like the presence of specific mutations, whether those mutations are germline or somatic, previous treatment types administered and staging. Efficacy found for one combination of the above generally isn’t seen as transitive to the rest.

The solution now seems to be to simply not allow that medication to be used if the patient doesn’t match the parameters of the trial. Some portion of those people then die because the current ‘standard of care’ is the same toxic shit they have been pumping i to veins for the past 30 years to little or no effect.
Perhaps, perhaps not. The market innovation of Tesla--selling electric vehicles based on sportiness and performance rather than eco-friendliness--pre-dates musk's involvement with the company.
That's awesome! I'm not surprised at all that the Nordic region is so over represented as open source contributors per capita, but I am surprised at how few other nations are represented at that level
I migrated off CloudSQL even when they tried to pay me to use it (startup credits). It's not worth risking your business with GCP. Sad, but that's what I've learned...

I'd consider Aiven if I were still on GCP and looking for a solid managed Postgres provider. As it is, I'm now on DigitalOcean and fairly happy with their managed Postgres offering, but there are a few rough edges so I'm actually still looking at Aiven even though everything else I have is on DO...

Emojis are extremely useful for personality matching on Tinder. My favourite is the non-smoking emoji as I would never date a person who is smoking, but there are many other things that I love in life and emojis give me a way to communicate them visually.
I would have tried to be kinder and more understanding to my parents and brother when I was a teenager but other than that, no.
How were the individuals' baselines assessed? Some people have exceptionally good memories. It would not be suprising if these traits often persisted into old age in some of such individuals. For example a person with a savant pmemory at 25 might have the memory of an average 25 year when at 85. That would not suprise me. That said memory is not all that it is cracked up to be. When I was young I had an exceptional memory for facts. It hasn't helped me too much in adult life due to other psychosocial deficits and bad luck and evironment. There are different forms of memory. My emotional and autobiographic memory is sometimes so bad it is weird. Like many life events don't leave too strong an impression.
She was right though. Nuclear power was unsafe and you can argue that it is still unsafe as last seen during Fukushima.
Probably because marijuana use damages young brains. Potent strains, which are now commonplace -- if not the norm, cause psychosis. People end up in emergency rooms, especially with edibles. Long term users suffer from brain damage, mental, and behavioral disorders. It's perceived as harmless, and thus is easier to accept as a supposedly innocent long term habit, when the truth is that it silently robs long term users of their motivation and destroys dreams. People become enamored with the altered state of consciousness early on, to the point where it permanently interferes with their life path.

Marijuana is still strictly disallowed in the military, for clearance holders, and for employees of government agencies such as the FBI for good reason. It impairs judgment.

While I have personally used the substance in the past, I do applaud the current administration for banning anyone who has ever tried it from working in the White House. Many agencies have reasonable policies for past use. I believe the NSA allows for past use no more recently than 12 months, and the FBI for 36 months.
In some ways, the UX is pretty similar to financing, with the difference that:

1. We offer personalized interior design. Yes, it's theoretically possible that we interior design your apartment and then outright sell the furniture package to you using a financing setup like Affirm, but:

2. The customer doesn't necessarily want to own the furniture. For example, at the end of their subscription, they can return all furniture and get a new brand new style and continue the subscription, or if they move sooner; we take care of all delivery, installation, moving, etc., and:

3. We offer add-on services like electricians and biweekly cleaning. I personally really believe in the "living as a service" part where the goal is to have a subscription that takes care of all aspects your living. Furniture is only the first step, there's lots more we can do there!

A nice visualization, but can I using the per capita numbers (page 14 of the paper)? The absolute numbers essentially colour codes the map according to population.

I'm having as hard time imagining this situation. There's no expansion of the market possible? Potential customers never say no based on features? No reductions in cost possible? Nothing that would get existing customers to pay you more?

I don't think I've ever worked on anything where I didn't have a "nice to have" list of interesting things that could easily keep me busy for a year, basically at all times. This is stuff like making the build or deploy or backups faster; tools to make troubleshooting simpler; making the UI retain my last filtering selection when I log in, or fixing that annoying bug where text sometimes overlaps an image. Or it can be as big as rewriting the entire backend processing system, because everytime we touch it, 10 new bugs appear and it has zero ability to be unit tested. This isn't even getting into the product itself.

Seems like a failure (or more likely total lack) of product management.
Yeah there are always loopholes but HRMC is quite good at cracking down on systematic tax avoidance
I do this too but I generally search on google/amazon for the product before buying. Much of the time, the same product is available cheaper from someone else. I think certain companies buy and resell stuff through paid advertising, so they have to pad their margins appropriately.

> it's nice to have computers that "just work" with modern software

Yeah I never understood people who work with computers all day economizing on their computers. Even from scalpers you’ll pay ~$6500 for top of the line parts and peripherals, which is about the cost of a high school student’s violin.

There's both on Facebook. You can set it so you always see a person's posts and you can click on any post to see less of that type of content (or none from the poster).
Solar panels are even better: they don't break down into anything, ever. They are completely inert, pre-vitrified from the factory and guaranteed to hold their shape for millions of years.
Grab them by the tank valve on their back and hook your knees around their tank and ride them like a bucking bronco. You still need to be ready to get away from them if they don't calm down. And that assumes you're able to get behind them in the first place.

I've always been a little confused about this "let it crash" philosophy. In my experience, the large scale services I have worked on almost never "crash." They throw 500 errors sometimes because they safely caught an exception. Would it be better to bring the whole server down and have the operating system restart it? I feel like I'm missing out on some kind of epiphany here, but it feels like the advice is to make my service crash where it wouldn't have before, which makes no sense to me. Can anyone explain it?
tilemaker really is fantastic. I make regular use of it (and tippecanoe) to slice and dice tilesets and it works well and is fast. it feels like it's right on the cusp of being an easyish way of generating vector tiles for the whole planet at a cost below $100. I can't wait for it to get there!
Though my dad was an engineer and there were always computers in our house, Lego was my first exposure to programming. The summer after third grade in the late 1980's I took a two week course at the local community college that had programable Lego Dacta sets. They worked with Apple II or IBM PC and had an ISA card that interfaced to an I/O box that could control motors or read input from switches or an opto sensor. You programmed them in a language called Lego TC Logo. Things have come a long way since then.
That means that you made a choice of what matters most to you. In any buying decision unless you're manufacturing it exactly to your specifications (and even then), you're probably going to be compromising on something. In this case you prioritized the screen over anything else, which is perfectly valid.

It's also perfectly valid to pine for a macbook pro with a socketed CPU, dimm slots, and a standard nvme drive. That doesn't mean that things should be that way just because you want them to be, though, which is the point that you made.

We're replacing the problem where we dump waste in the atmosphere with no clear path to ever getting it back out with the problem of storing potentially hazardous solids. The latter seems to be a much better problem to have. We already have that problem with most things we produce and we are moderately good at handling it.
It’s probably not quite so simple as build, build, build. This article does a good job explaining why.

Despite what some DARE aficionados might say cops aren't running around reading scientific research to understand the effects of weed on brains of different ages. A vast majority of them couldn't care less.

Weed is illegal because enforcing weed laws is immensely profitable for police departments and prison systems who lobby intensively to keep them illegal because they know many of their jobs would dissappear if weed was federally legalized.

So although Biden would probably love to federally legalize weed because its an easy voter win, it would put huge amounts of money from powerful lobbies at risk so its a catch 22.

You're not wrong but it depends on the platform and campaign. If the ads are bought click-optimized then yes... if conversion optimized then the algorithms will learn to avoid zealous clickers.
The Washington Post is a propaganda outlet, and this is fear propaganda. This type of organization has learned a wonderful trick, and they use it all the time: they report current events without checking for precedent. Why? Because there almost always is precedent, which makes the current event seem less alarming, which is obviously no good for them.

This story is supposed to be due to global warming / climate change, right? If so, why is it easy to find reports of the same kind of thing happening over a hundred years ago, before humans had emitted any appreciable amount of CO2?

Here's one from 1912: https://www.nytimes.com/1912/02/12/archives/hot-ocean-boils-...
"HOT OCEAN BOILS FISH.; Gulf Sailors Report Passing Through Zone of Scalding Water." Inconvenient for the CO2 hypothesis, huh.

Please. Start checking for precedent when you see stories like this. I think you'll find it eye-opening.

"Let it crash" is largely about restarting systems to known good state in an expanding scope. The Zen of Erlang[1] covers it really well, it's a longer read but well worth it if you want to understand a lot of the design choices of Erlang.

Nearly all of the devices you use employ these approaches in one form or another. A watchdog timer[2] is a pretty simple and powerful version of this. Timeouts and retries follow a somewhat similar approach, Erlang just embraces that across the whole language. It really is a fascinating approach to a different design space(latency and reliability over throughput) through the requirements a telecom stack necessitated.

Historically, Catholicism was also responsible for a high birth rate because of their religious dogma. Is that racist or a factual observation?

Not everything is racist. Racism is when you judge someone by their ethnicity alone. Racism is when you deny someone opportunities based only on their skin colour. Etc...

I'm not going to automatically assume that every Irish woman I meet is a baby-making machine just because most Irish tend to be catholic. That would be stupid. That however doesn't negate the prior fact. Catholics as a group generally tended to oppose birth control.

Making statistical observations about a nation, with numbers, is just science. Making judgements about official policy, whether it is political or religious in nature, is a statement about the policy, not any individual person.

Be careful not to fall into the trap of labelling things with the most extreme version, it limits your ability to think clearly. Not every left-leaning policy is communist. Not every right-leaning policy is fascist. Not every comment about a country is racist.
They said carbon neutral, so I'm assuming the idea would be to use carbon dioxide and hydrogen to make kerosene to begin with. Then you can burn it and get the carbon dioxide back to start over. It's not carbon from the process entirely, but instead simply not adding additional carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.

That was definitely me during my depression years; and I see that in my sister too. Of course there's more to the story, but that was a big component; and it doesn't have to be material or big, in my case was the simple habit of expecting perfection at each and every action, and anything short of perfection would be disappointment, sum that up for years/decades and becomes depression with side effects like analysis paralysis....

> GMM violation = UB

This is definitionally correct (shrug)

> Dilettante programmers certainly do not know [that] Go slices, strings, and interface values are unsafely non-atomic.

Yes. They do. As soon as a Go programmer learns that there is such a thing as concurrency and "thread safety" they learn that nothing in Go is "thread safe" by default.

> Go is not memory-safe.

"Memory-safe" is not a precisely defined concept. Go is memory safe by some definitions, not by others.
Announced WWDC 2018, arrived to the neighbor to the north 2.5 years later in December 2020, that's still quite a gap. But to be clear I was referring to the brand new detailed maps announced this year.

Exactly this. The concluding claim from the paper;

> Thus, this study is consistent with the proposal that the majority of preschool children do not seize opportunities to engage in structured empirical investigations with the explicit purpose of resolving conflicts that arise from surprising testimony

completely ignores the bioeconomics of carrying out “structural empirical investigations”. It is more expensive to carrying out investigations than to take a best guess. In the presence of tons of other cognitive tasks they could be doing, they have no obvious reason to carry out this particular and ostensibly boring investigation. Knowing the natural curiosity of kids, they have a high baseline of investigative behavior.
"Hydrogen" is a fundamentally different thing to "solar". There is no "straw man argument" being made because it's comparing apples and pears.

The only purpose of hydrogen is to make energy in one point in space & time and then use it in another point of your choice without CO2 emissions. Solar is to convert sunlight to electrical energy, but you don't get to control when the sun is shining. The technology to generate hydrogen is also completely mature and has been since before I was born, whether we are talking steam methane reforming or electrolysis. It's just not very cheap.
The other side of the coin: people who get easily fished by scams get more and more well targeted scams.

I had to help deal with a scam on a very low profile product (less than 20$ worth) that will just never arrive, the company just vanished away and she was left to deal with her bank to convince for a chargeback. I thought it was just back luck, but I got to look at her timeline later on, and half of the ads could have been same level scams.

Covid-19 originated naturally and not in lab, virologists conclude
I was once in a position where I had nothing to do for around 5 months straight after starting a job. It was an open office plan, we were clocked in 9-5, and I had a supervisor from another team who sat across from me and meant to keep an eye on me. I was also young and naive enough that I didn't know how far I could push limits slacking, so I didn't really push them at all. I desperately pleaded with everyone for work, but was always told the equivalent of "next sprint we'll have some for you, go read some documentation for now!".

I had never been more depressed in my life than those 5 months.

The closest thing I could compare it to is imagine printing out a copy of your current project's documentation, locking yourself in a room with it for 8 hours, then doing that 100 more times. It's a special type of hell.

No matter how well you think you can divorce your work time from your personal time, it starts to cross over. Work becomes so boringly painful that you actively dread it even in your time off. You know that tomorrow you're going to have to wake up and pretend to stare at documentation. For hours. And hours. And hours. And then repeat that the next day. And the next. And the next - with no end in sight.
