The southern US traditionally has moderately acidic soils. Low soil pH is increasingly a problem in the Midwest as well due to poor agricultural practices.
From the title I expected an article about a soda machine near the US capitol that was secretly full of Russian spy gear or something.

Note that I didn't say that lazy evaluation is needed for functional programming. I said that Rust doesn't have lazy evaluation, and that it's not a functional programming language.

IMHO, a functional programming language requires:

- First-class functions and function literal (lambda) syntax support

- Expression-oriented syntax

- Emphasis on immutable data structures

- Tail call optimization

Other features are 'take-it-or-leave-it'.

$75 is a notable monthly fee for this, but its also important to remember all the other stuff that comes with Level 2 Boost for a server, and that its not a sole cost just for threads.

As for managing a support server and the channel clutter, have you used any of the various "Support/Ticket" bots for discord. TicketTool[1] is probably the most popular. I've used it, and its pretty nice.

You make very good points - sometimes the best discussions are well down in the comments.

Currently, while men hold the majority of the economic and political power in the US. From a purely Machiavellian viewpoint, why should they hire anyone besides other white men? They only stand to lose if business and politics become more egalitarian.

What's changed in the past century or so is that it can no longer appear blatant - "we're better because we say so" isn't cutting it anymore. Still - maybe given a chance a lot of them will find a way to hire each other. "Team culture" is as good an excuse as any.
The mere presence of buttons that look like buttons, and static text that looks like static text, is innumerably better than the "ambiguous text and icons floating in a sea of flat white/blackspace" that UIs today seem to mostly consist of.
Roccat Kova AIMO. One button bound to show all windows on Mac. Side buttons bound to page up and page down. Much faster than the scroll wheel!
This is very true. It's been a reality for a long time that the most successful (measured in $x rewarded) bug hunters sometimes have hundreds or even thousands of bugs submitted per year.

This way, they can capitalise on the fact that smaller security issues are much easier to find, especially if the bug hunter has expertise in the underlying framework.
This formulas is for battles, not wars/campaigns.
This is interesting to me. For the past 15 years I have had a small plot in the tropics on which I have tried to improve the soil by adding copious amounts of compost, manures and growing cover crops that I till under. All that organic material just seems to disappear quickly. Before I owned it the plot was planted with corn and sugar cane each year and lots of chemical fertilizers and pesticides were used. So the soil was ruined. I thought I could bring it back within a few years but it is still rather poor. There was one patch that looked much better after a giant pile of scrap wood left over from house construction was burned and the left over ash and char was plowed in. But that did not last long. It is all back to hard crusty soil now. The pH is rather high due to the high percentage of karst in the region and the high calcium carbonate content of ground water that is used to irrigate. Maybe that has something to do with it?
For me, it really was the phone. Maybe it even exacerbated the background problems.
But in order to teach something actually useful you need to provide code samples in a specific language. Speaking in generalities like 'Functional programming emphasizes pure functions' doesn't really tell people how to practice it.
Yeah the Arizona factory isn’t going to come anywhere near the Taiwanese one by any metric. It’s just for show to make the american government feel a bit better about the huge national security risk that not having capabilities to manufacture chips is.

Nah, no need-- I just use a text expander, but it's the same idea. Set up a "macro" where you write a shortcut and it expands, such as writing ";gita" and having it expand to "git add -A"

Currently I like Espanso (mac) for its simplicity. Previously I used aText (mac) and PhraseExpress (windows)

I agree with you. A good beer like Guinness is full of micronutrients and if you only have a few, it's not a bad tradeoff for the stress relief. Soda on the other hand, because it's not associated with drugs, is overdrank and made into a habit.
I never watched the show back in the day. I knew what it was but I was not into this sort of thing in my youth.

Decided to give it a try last month and I am already on season 2 and find it enjoyable.

A few things that stand out to me:

1. Male characters tend to be in their 50s or older.

2. Women are mostly gorgeous but somewhat the same type

3. Even though it was all filmed almost 50 years ago and some stories are ridiculous, over the top, it all seems more believable than whatever modern crime show my wife is watching. These old, pretentious, hilariously over the top rich assholes are more believable to me than "normal" modern TV characters that seem to have it all in their 20s while also looking like models.

4. Everyone is white lol

>Nobody pressured Turkey (or Russia, in the era of Peter the Great) into trying to become more like Europe.

history was pressuring. In both cases the more advanced, technically/militarily in particular, Europe was an existential threat - in case of Russia to make Russia (ie. Grand Duchy of Moscow) into a small dukedom far in the forests, and in case of Turkey - for example the post WW1 partitioning plan for Osman Empire included partitioning of what is modern Turkey territory.

Now you’ve got two problems (Part III)
You can a/b test brand marketing effectiveness. Test and control markets over a long time frame, let's say 6 months to a year. The problem is that the level of investment is quite high and that the total results take a long time to reach significance.
I think usability has to take a part on that.

You can scan an interface of this fashion and be almost certain about what is a button, what is a scroll bar, what is a text input, etcetera.

While with Windows 8+ the flat UI lets a huge space for ambiguity and causes a bigger cognitive load to the user, who is forced to tell things between flat rectangles and lines.
It’s a close second to the trebuchet.

Sony could possibly have ushered in the MP3 revolution years before MP3 did, using their ATRAC audio compression, but being a record company as well as an electronics company, they were presumably concerned about piracy, something which may have also slowed adoption of MP3 playback.

Sony already had a successful product line in terms of MiniDisc players and also had the Memory Stick Walkman. These devices supported ATRAC and SDMI DRM. Presumably they could have used the same 1.8" Toshiba hard drive as the iPod to make a higher capacity version (as they later did with the Network Walkman, which initially did not support MP3.)

Fast forwarding to the iPod, it was a great way to play stacks of (usually unlicensed) MP3 recordings, and in 2001 "Rip/Mix/Burn" Apple was less worried about piracy because it wasn't a media company.

Subsequent to the original iPod, the initial incarnation of the iTunes store incorporated DRM (apparently at the behest of record companies) which was folded into the iPod as well.
I can totally relate.

Inflation: Academic research on measurement, causes, consequences, and trading
Slack is often misconfigured - mid-sized companies without a proper IAM team/engineer often enable auto-provisioning which sends an invite to @<whitelisted domain>. If you can identify a e-mail reflection vuln on the domain you can parlay that into a Slack invite, and while ChatOps might be the least of the concerns I fear this is reinforcing bad hygiene.

Additionally companies forced to be SOX compliant require separation of duties, which is often incompatible with slash commands that impact production or revenue generating infrastructure.

The Rust developers largely use Zulip as an IRC replacement, and I find its UI to be excellent for my use cases: keeping up with advances to conversations that happened while I wasn't present, fully ignoring conversations that I'm not interested in, and focusing on individual conversations that are happening in parallel. An extremely good experience for such a thoroughly-distributed operation. The only downside is the slight friction for extremely minor conversation; it's good to have side channels just for idle, non-topical chitchat, which isn't a great fit for the Zulip UI.
So possibly is it cherry-pick? :)
Ahh dang, I wrote a whole post and then I accidentally closed the tab :)

As background, Xero is in the same boat as a whole host of different businesses. It's nothing unique to them at all. They started with a single C# monolith and that scaled until it started running into trouble. At this point, you start splitting out your monolith into different services and Xero is quite a ways down that track.

At present, there's still a decent chunk of code that still lives in the original monolithic codebase. The initial home screen (dashboards etc) live in there among other things as an example.

When you navigate between services however (ie; invoicing or payroll), those are actually entirely different sites run by other teams that you're switching between, even though the UI is the same (the navigation bar is itself a separate service too for example which is why sometimes you get incidents where the nav bar disappears, if that service runs into trouble)

There is an in-house CSS library that is standard to keep everything consistent but there may still be older versions of it between services or even different JS libraries depending on how old or new a given service is.

So I guess to answer your question, the answer is yes, there are multiple templating libraries and things like that under the hood.

Beyond that, I probably shouldn't go into too much detail! Most of the above I think you can infer just by navigating around the application and seeing how various cookies, stylesheets and what not change so there's nothing particular unique.
Not accurate enough. I want to be able to quantify e.g how much water was used to water the garden. In a 25K litre tank, that's a very small change in level.

> In theory you can charge only from renewable energy sources, but in many areas you still burn fossil fuels, and in these areas hybrids are way more ecofriendly

Now, maybe (though nowhere on your site does it even remotely suggest "way more") -- but one difference is that as the grid greens, EVs become more and more ecofriendly every year. As ICE engine age, they become less and less ecofriendly every year. The site you cite mentions this too, and probably underestimates how quickly the grid will green, and how quickly batteries will require less energy to create, and how much of that initial input energy can be recovered in recycling.

> I can see hybrid cars very frequently on the streets, but fully electric cars not so much

But if I had a Mouse I would at least map navigate forward/backward bindings and if I have more buttons I would put the most common navigation/inspection short cuts on the mouse, too (goto definition, show documentation in popup, etc.).
Alcohol isn't as big of an insidious detriment. It is bad, sure, but we are aware of that. The biggest difference is the mutual understanding that society has about the negative effects of alcohol. It's understood to be a drug. Soda on the other hand doesn't have that cultural awareness.
Bad headline - omits "certain configurations."

Bad article - fails to mention that it's the amount of energy used while idle, NOT the amount of energy used while running, that is restricted.

Wikipedia has a good hint over the science for ED:

In about 80% of cases, physical causes can be identified.[2] These include cardiovascular disease; diabetes mellitus; neurological problems, such as those following prostatectomy; hypogonadism; and drug side effects. About 10% of cases are psychological impotence, caused by thoughts or feelings;[2] here, there is a strong response to placebo treatment.

If a patient can not get an erection with their partner but can with porn, the cause is unlikely to be physical.

> As such, any sort of failure either with ZomboDB itself, between Postgres and Elasticsearch (network layer), or within Elasticsearch will cause the operating Postgres transaction to ABORT. [1]

In my defense, there is a fairly important distinction between "any error that ES is capable of reporting back" and "any sort of failure within Elasticsearch".

That said, I and trust that you're more familiar with consistency levels than me, so I'll bow out here.

Climate change does not create the concept of a hurricane or wildfire, nor any other physical phenomenon. Nobody has said that.

What it does is induce extreme phenomena more often and in more locations.

Edit: by nobody I mean scientists and knowledgeable people. TV talking heads misunderstand and misrepresent everything all the time, so undoubtedly they’ll have done the same with Climate Change.
I never said anything about probable.
But biochar establishes the fact that carbon can be (semi-?)sequestered by a sustainable human agricultural process, this scheme has been implemented on a large scale in the past, and similar schemes could be implemented in future ag systems. That’s not a trifecta you hit very often in complex systems of any sort.

Upshot: if you are a young scientist/engineer/agronomist/ag economist and want to do real hands-on exploratory science where everybody is in the dumb club, and still make a significant direct middle/long-term difference in the world and its population, soil science could be your ticket.

The old design makes easier to grasp things at a glance, especially in Control Panel. Each icon has a distinct shape and color, in contrast with Windows 10 Settings app that has much more abstract monochrome icons that are difficult to tell apart.

Monochrome vector icons make things like dark mode easier to implement. Such small software shops like Microsoft unfortunately cannot afford to hire designers to do multiple sets of icons.

You don't need a powerful engine to speed: even Kia Sorento can still drive 100+ mph. Powerful engine gives better acceleration, which provides comfort and safety not just for yourself but other drivers. For example you don't create a hazard while doing a left turn, merging from a ramp, passing on the oncoming lane, doing a right turn from a secondary street into a high speed road etc. And, unless it's a DIY mod, a car with a powerful engine also comes with suspension and brakes to match so it's safer overall.
