I'm basing it on personal experience, with grandparents and further back recipes.

I don't think something like avocados even existed here, or any type of spicy pepper.

I'm a spicehead, and nothing has any at all. Or much say, umami. Meat and potatoes. Meat and green beans. Add salt or bland spice, if you're lucky. It's basically all I ate growing up.

Today I can buy Nashville hot spice in a can, for example.

I'm sure you can find examples of some things existing in some places. But the silk road didn't run through rural midwest.

Edit to add:
Speaking of avocados, and complex favors...imagine a perfect guacamole. With avocados, and spicy peppers, garlic, onion, etc. Does a recipe exist for such a thing before say, 1960?

For people who want a more stats-grounded approach, VAEs are more or less state of the art these days: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variational_autoencoder

They are reasonably competitive with GANs. I haven't kept up on the latest models on either side, but VAEs have historically tended to be a little blurrier than GANs.
Yes and no. The civil war that waged in Sri Lanka was something really complicated, where at one point it was hard to choose who was right or wrong in the conflict.

As far as I know the Sinhalese started the whole civil war but the LTTE escalated the situation where they were committing atrocities I cannon't write on a forum like this. And mind you, both sides committed some pretty messed up atrocities.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_attacks_on_civilians_a...

After the war ended despite what's been told in international media, as a Sri Lankan who represent an ethnic minority there I can say I feel safer now, people have seem to forgotten about the war to some extend and there's a lot of healing that is being done (no thanks to the government though) personally I remember a time when we took different buses to school/work even if we were all heading in the same direction incase one of the busses were attacked by the terrorists we wont lose both parents in the family. There was a lot of mistrust and a lot of divide among everyone even in school you had different ethnic groups hanging out with their own ethnicity. But now we have a more diverse groups of friends we have businessmen, politicians and other elites in society that represent different ethnic groups.

There's a lot of improvements to be made, but I think we as a nation have done really well to rebuild after being enemies for over 30 years.

and as for the parallels I haven't heard of stories where the ltte or the army forcing sons to rape their mothers after salting the earth of an entire town like the way the British did. What the British did was wipe out our culture, our history and basically taking away what made Sri Lankan's unique.

Watch for firing patterns encoded on MRNA for pattern matching, and to help predict what might come next in a sequence. That was the other part of my theory.

Are you not religious, or anti-religious?

If you just don’t religion, a small, local church might still be a good call, proving they’re amicable. Your kids are going to learn about religion one way or another. Look at this as an education into what religious people are really like.
It's short-sighted because employees are humans, which perform much better when healthy and excited to work. Stingy/hostile employers have high turnover and employees who treat work as a zero or negative sum game.

A good example of this is the This American Life story on NUMMI: https://www.thisamericanlife.org/561/nummi-2015

Toyota took one of GM's worst plants and turned it into one of its best by treating workers with respect. Hearing the workers talk about the transformation stunned me.
Someone linked "little brother" in another thread, which is a fiction novel of a very similar situation. I found it a good read sprinkled with realistic descriptions of the tech & countermeasures.

I know where SpaceX is. Elon does have a clear history of being overly optimistic about timelines.

There's a zero percent chance they'll have a vehicle ready by the JWT launch date that could launch it instead, even if they get to orbit by then.

This is not a race. As I said I'm a SpaceX fan, but I am not a fan of every single space topic being derailed by "but what about SpaceX?" as if they're the only company doing things meaningful in the industry. They're the super cool new kid on the block, but there's still a lot more out there that doesn't deserve to constantly be lampooned for not being SpaceX.
I think they mean reliability of the satellite. The JWST is going to be parked at a Lagrange point that's going to put it out of reach of most everything. At the time it was conceived, robotic servicing was even further off. A crewed mission was right out. Costs went far up in part because unlike Hubble, servicing was going to be virtually impossible.
Ok but y'all do a bad job of it. The ads are irrelevant or they're for something I already bought. They're invasive, obnoxious and useless.

My wife bought me an ooni pizza oven for Christmas. A box showed up at our door labelled ooni and I didn't know what it was because I had never heard of that brand. My wife took it and hid it. Then I started getting ads for ooni pizza ovens on Instagram. So thanks for ruining Christmas, Facebook. Assholes.
Has there been any kind of study on the differences between majority rule type democracies where the ruling party can pass whatever law they want and a House and Senate type democracy like the US where laws need cooperation from both chambers to pass ?

The obvious answer is that the this kind of lawsuit is inherently to score political points, and for whatever reason the AGs saw more upside in suing Google than Apple.
I discovered a really exciting program today: checkinstall

Running sudo checkinstall after building with make does several things:
1. “Installs,” the compilation product
2. Packages it into a .deb that makes it easy to install anywhere
3. Allows you to use dpkg to uninstall a compiled project, e.g. “sudo apt-get uninstall ffmpeg-v4.5-source-aarch64-github” assuming the latter is what you named your package

Obviously this isn’t an end all be all, but is already saving me a lot of time

Cooking has been massively impacted by software. Even if you’re only talking about home cooking.

The shared information available is truly phenomenal. Sure there’s lots of low quality cooking information, but that’s the same in all domains. It’s many orders of magnitude superior to the pre-internet level of information available.

The ability to sift through all of the information out there, including an endless amount of user generated content, and have it translated from basically any language you want is incredibly useful. Being able to find a video tutorial for almost anything on demand is incredibly useful. Being able to search for shops that stock exotic ingredients is incredibly useful. FaceTiming mom to get her help with a technique is incredibly useful. Having a private GitHub repo for sharing recipes with my friends is incredibly useful.

I’d completely reject the idea that the information revolution hasn’t been hugely impactful on cooking, even if you still have to put in the effort of trying things out for yourself.

Not the grandparent, but food in the Anglosphere 70 years ago predominantly consisted of "eat to live" meals such as meat and three veg (with way too much salt).

It wasn't until the post-war migration boom when more interesting flavours (Greek, Italian, Indian, Carribean, South American etc.) started appearing on our general palettes.

That said, there are definitely exceptions to the "bland" rule, such as some fantastic old-school British sausages, smoked/cured meats and cheeses.

Yeah, I’m not sure what you’re expecting. There is no substitute for trying the recipe. What do you expect the software to do?

I’m reminded of articles about coming up with the “best” chocolate chip cookie recipe. I found a good one [1] though it’s not the one I remember.

Each recipe is a point in an n-dimensional space, and that’s just considering the amounts of each ingredient.

How is buying up all the housing stock and selling it for 20% more than you paid adding liquidity?? I think a more accurate term is “scalping”. Houses and 3000 series nvidia cards are in demand. We don’t want big players scalping the product back to us. Nothing is gained except inefficiency and grift.
That looks like false dichotomy. You can lift lockdowns and not have forced medical procedures at the same time.
Modern systems have a lot of problems and you get a lot of false positives. But honestly let's think about it more. If you can walk through a crowd with a visible gun, it's pretty unlikely that you'll be able to identify one with a camera. So if you only see the guns when they are drawn, well I'm not convinced this is meaningfully different because now the gun is being announced. I have serious reservations about using gait analysis for determining carrying weapons.

I do want to draw attention to Destin from Smarter Every Day's gun detection system[0], where he even mentions part of the above situation. Maybe this could accelerate police response and automate it, but this honestly sounds like an over engineered system.

JIT is really complex. I work in automotive and it’s actually really impressive on a deployment level.

However, yea, no one saw Covid coming. And, the whole 2008-Carpocalypse was extra bad because it wasn’t GM and Chrysler, it was literally everyone down the line. If GM went under, Johnson Controls goes under, and since they make every Toyota and Hyundai seat (IDK, figuratively, but probably) they struggle and go under too. It’s a fascinating deadlock / race condition of sales and profits and shipping.

I think it’s cool to see seats made two hours ago show up on the line at the exact second this body is on the line, installed, than a chassis that was made one a different line happens to line up and everything came together in seconds… but yes, there are some downsides.
Let me make an analogy: Your petrol car has a heat engine. It converts about 20% of the heat energy released by combustion into mechanical energy. The rest goes out the tailpipe. Yet harnessing that remaining energy is not so simple because the temperature gradient is (relatively) small.

The thermoelectric effect also requires large temperature gradients, and efficiency is proportional to the gradient.
That explains the [mis]behaviour, few software look that deep.

Depends on the meaning bookkeeping? My interpretation is that compared to programming, bookkeeping is just copying symbols, while programming involves higher level of problem solving. The article compares each level of abstraction to bookkeeping, but not the connection between levels, or the "architecting" of multiple levels at a time, as is usually done in programming.

> Why "of course not" though?

Well I'd think if anything bookkeeping is a form of math. This is also depends on the definition of math which makes the comparison more challenging without going into too much semantics.

Both Chrome and Firefox (maybe others) have a separate cache for favicons that acts differently than the regular browser cache. I don't know if it caches data uris but it does cache more aggressively. I know some places like Stackoverflow add a cache-busting parameter to favicon.ico to get past it.
I do think there's a slight difference between MSNBC and Fox News. MSNBC is marketed as a progressive political talk network, Fox News calls itself a "Fair and Balanced" news network. The main thing people critique about Tucker Carlson and others on Fox News is their inability to separate talking points from journalism.

Depends on the company. I joined Twitter in 2016. The stock, which was circa 1/3rd of my total comp, had a one year cliff. 7 months in, one executive got the upper hand in a power struggle, pushing out my boss and laying off the people he hired, me included. I don't think they did it because of the stock. But I'm sure it didn't hurt. I'm still mad about it.

I am not surprised. Sri Lanka shares a lot of culture and history with India. Afterall one of the origin stories of sri lanka is king Vijaya was banished from India and sailed to Sri Lanka where he met the locals then and established the kingdom that later became Sri Lanka.

When I am working abroad and miss home food and I can't find a Sri Lankan shop, I often substitute it with Kerala food, which I believe some of our main dishes are inspired from. Both Kerala food and Sri Lankan food makes heavy use of coconut milk in preparing their dishes.

> Isn’t Apple’s fee 15% now?

I think both Apple and Google did that. It's a desperate attempt to avoid regulation IMO. I think both should be forced to facilitate competing app stores. There should be no mercy for them after a decade of anti-competitive price gouging.

> Sweden had something like 80% support to only have event limits at 500 and no other restrictions

But even now Sweden has 0.15% of the population killed by covid-19, that is like 100 times smaller than the 10% that the GP got in the simulation.
This is an interesting point but it would apply to almost every line of business. Retail charges 60% markup. Imagine the outrage.

30% is a gross margin and doesn't take into consideration a lot of thigns.

It'd be nice if Americans were exposed to the margins of everything but I'm not sure how much would change.

Delaware should regulate this at the state level

People that really think they need a state-level business court system for their multinational unicorn, in a place they never physically will be, can just keep using Delaware for no reason, and their employees will subsequently have better earned securities laws.
