Yes, your body cannot have zero insulin. You do not need/want more insulin once your glucose is 70-75, though. I'm quite familiar with both hypoglycemia and ketoacidosis, having nearly died of undiagnosed type 1 last Spring.

Ketoacidosis is typically associated with hyperglycemia. It happens when your body has no insulin. There is what's called euglycemic ketoacidosis but it's rare. In typical ketoacidosis, your blood is very high in glucose, but lacking insulin, your cells have no way to obtain it. Since your body cannot get energy out of your blood in the normal fashion it starts to digest ketones, which acidifies the blood and creates many harmful effects.

In the situation we are discussing, when your glucose rises above 75 from food or liver secretion, the novel insulin would start working, preventing ketoacidosis.
I think it would be worth understanding how Bitcoin works first. It's designed to be more robust. It doesn't change as often (some criticize it due to that), however, it could also be seen as a strength. You could read the Bitcoin white paper [1]. If you wanted to learn more about programming Bitcoin, you could also check out Mastering Bitcoin 2nd Edition - Programming the Open Blockchain by Andreas M. Antonopoulos [2].

Ethereum was created after Bitcoin. It was designed to be more of an open programming platform. It was designed to be Turing Complete and enabled the use of "smart contracts". The DeFi space runs on smart contracts and Ethereum kicked off DeFi. This is the Ethereum white paper [3]. Mastering Ethereum by Andreas M. Antonopoulos & Gavin Wood is another book you could check out [4].

Here are a couple of introductions to DeFi, as well [5][6].

The hack that everyone is discussing here was on Poly Network, which a layer 2 solution for Ethereum [7]. Layer 2 solutions were created due to lower the high gas fees on Ethereum, as well as increase transaction throughput. Ethereum itself is also working on moving to Ethereum 2.0 which would help address the issues that layer 2 solutions are trying to solve [7].

Edit: Poly Network actually appears to be more of a bridge between different networks (Ethereum, Polygon and Binance Smart Chain) [9], so it's worth noting that this wasn't a direct hack on Polygon, which is a layer 2 solution for Ethereum.

It wouldn't be too hard to make a smart contract only be able to transfer X amount out per time period and then still allow individual users to emergency exit. Then you can concentrate auditing logic on the emergency exit code as opposed to the entire surface area.
Don't worry, they are working on population reduction... I think it's more likely most of us are not around in 20 years. So we don't have to worry about it. :)
Hell yes.

My parents are in their mid-60s. They are both full of energy, in great health, and very productive. As a teacher he's not allowed to work past 65, even when the classes he teaches have no suitable replacements.

We should differentiate between blue-collar and white-collar work in retirement age. I would never wish someone who's worked in a factory or doing manual labor to keep on working. But if you've been sitting in an air-conditioned office all your life there's still plenty to go.
The point is about housing affordability, which drives homelessness. There's not some mystical force at play here, housing becomes too expensive, so some people can't afford it. The types of by-choice homeless people you're referring to are a tiny fraction of the homeless population.
Yes, I understand, but the point I'm making is that it does support 'roles', 'assuming' them for a period of time, then dropping those privileges again, or 'assuming' a different one, etc.

The 'because' isn't there, but I'm not really sure what that would look like, at least in a meaningful (not trivially spoofable) way.
I said "town" due to the geographic size of ~3km^2. My "town", really a small city, is ~70km^2 and a population of ~100k. It is surrounded by other towns/cities forming the Dallas/Ft Worth Metroplex, which metro area is 24,000km^2 with ~6 million people in that space.

I just checked Google Maps, there are almost a dozen of these 180,000sqft Walmarts within a 10min drive (a "comfortable distance" here) from my home. And that's just Walmart, there's also probably another six or so Target locations of similar size. I do agree this is absolutely excessive and insane though, there's such a massive amount of real estate of just big box retail.

The reason why these stores are seemingly dominating local retail is the same reason why cars are dominating travel in the US or why Amazon seems to be dominating internet retail. Apparent convenience. Why bother going to a clothier, then go to a cobbler, then go to the electronics store, then go to a video store, then go to the furniture store, then go to the auto parts store, then go to the butcher, then go to the baker, then go to the grocer. Instead, you can do practically every bit of your shopping in a single store, all at once. Find some new linens for your bed, then go grab a new pair of shoes, better stock up on some fresh underwear, maybe that 40" TV we got a few years ago isn't cutting it get a bigger one, then grab some milk and eggs and we'll check out in the Auto department to pick up the car after the oil change.
XP with the classic themes was the best. A while ago I did my best to get a decent browser that could display modern webpages running so perhaps I could use XP as a desktop. Nothing really works. Modern Java apps same thing, the JRE is frozen in time somewhere, .NET same thing. SSL isn't compatible. Perhaps one could compile a recent Wine, Mono/.NET or Java to XP and run some things.

Or perhaps better, use a windows theme for a linux desktop - and stick to gtk apps.

OpenAI cloaks themselves in false "open" terminology to hide how proprietary and incredibly restrictive they've made their tech. That's a very cool demo; have you considered trying to make it run on GPT-J instead? It's an open source alternative you can run yourself or pay an independent api provider without supporting OpenAI.
The benefit of this also fixes bugs. Weather.com bugged on me because it uses supercookies, it would send me to the wrong link when I clicked in the search bar for my saved location. Had to manually go through and delete all the copies of the same cookies in local storage and other places they put it.

The next step is for Firefox to finally adopt torbrowser, and natively support not allowing fingerprinting by default.
If nodes in a network are fully independent and not cooperating, then you don't have a network, you have a bunch of disconnected nodes.
Ah yes, Bayerische Motoren Werke, what everyone obviously understands when they hear 'BMW'... Silly me.

The reality is that BMW means exactly nothing to people apart from the meaning the branding assigned to it, which is "great German cars". Most car brands are like that, actually.

The same goes for the other brands I mentioned. As a word 'Google' is no more meaningful than 'Yahoo' for 99.9% of the population (no-one knows what a Googol is). It means what the branding and product have made it mean to the point that it became a verb.
Just checked out the demo video. Feel like I can accomplish most of these by just using Google docs. Is there enough of a difference to take the the leap from using a free docs software to a SaaS product
We (a smaller company) have had half day Fridays since early in the pandemic. This is great, but I wish I could convince the powers that be that those 4 hours on Friday are the least productive hours of the week, and that giving an entire day off would be vastly more beneficial than the half days. I'm on the verge of looking for a new job, but if we had every Friday off I would plan on sticking around a long, long time!
(spoiler warning) I gave up on the ExForce series after a half dozen books; it was good, just repetitive. But I couldn't force myself to purchase the Bobiverse #2. While the Bobiverse author's style was irritating to me, I thought the alien interactions in Bobiverse were laughable compared to ExForce and Hail Mary (spoiler sorry). The antagonist also left much to be desired.

But Ray Porter's voice needs to be applied to many more books. I generally only stop reading audiobooks if I can't listen to the reader any longer
ORMs only have value IF there's an object model you're mapping to. When working in a language that has good support for relational data, ie support for sets of heterogeneus maps, you can skip the whole object model and avoid the whole need for mapping in the first place.

Ruby and Python in particular really missed the boat on this one. I feel like they cargo culted practices from Java rather than embrace the implications of their own langauge's flexibility.
> You're essentially saying that not working may not be healthy. That's one of the strangest things I've read today.

But it is true. An internal study at a megacorp I worked at showed that people who didn't retire ended up living longer.

It makes a ton of sense. Intellectual work keeps your mind stimulated and your body moving. Inaction ends up killing old people.

$200 tax is quite crazy though. You can get a cheap suppressor for that (or less). So the "tax" is literally doubling the actual price of a suppressor in the worst case.
I actually had it assigned to me to read in college. Outstanding book.
There's a whole cannon of literature written in it (Dunbar, Ferguson, Ramsay, MacDairmid, Henryson, Kelman, Leonard, Souter etc.) as well as a bit of a discussion whether the literature reflected or embellished Scots (Burns and MacDairmid both made up words for example). When people think of Scots they usually think of the Glaswegian dialect of English you commonly hear on the TV. But there's still a whole set of words in common use today around Scotland. You hear it more in rural areas and less in the central belt.
> don’t want to have massive crowds move into their towns.

Unless you're proposing a China-style system of internal passport controls, there's no way to prevent this. NIMBYs are fighting the tides on this. People move where there are jobs and nice weather. In trying to hold back the ocean, NIMBYs create even more problems.
You load all six chambers, or five if it’s an antique without a firing pin safety. Typically this is accomplished by pouring the powder charge into the front of the cylinder and then placing a lead ball on top of it and ramming it into place, although one can also remove the cylinder altogether with some models and load it externally.

The end result is you can get 5-6 shots off quickly, but reloading will take rather a lot longer than with a cartridge firearm. This is one reason people carried two revolvers in the old West. Needless to say they’re of little interest to criminals, but fairly popular amongst sportsmen and re-enactors and such.
In my preferences, I have "Block Audio and Video" for all sites with no exceptions

If the browser can't control whether the video player plays or pauses then that option should prevent the browser from loading the player module at all until the user clicks on it. Unfortunately broken player windows would make things look slightly less polished, and if there's anything consistent about Firefox it's their willingness to look good even if it means bending over their power users.
My more vulgar take is that everyone needs to go to the toilet eventually and most people prefer to do it in private.
It's funny, this is in many ways exactly the same thing that corporations try to achieve over and over again: reap the profits if they are there and externalize the costs. Of course crypto isn't any different. But if designed properly they've closed the door on this and that makes badly implemented crypto far worse than the alternatives, because the whole reason to exist is the lack of recourse.
And at the same time not. Schengen abolished border checks for vehicles passing national borders.

Border checks for goods were not next to non-existent pre-Schengen. They caught a lot of stuff. At least in Sweden.
I'm probably younger than you think I am. The iPhone launched into the public eye about the time I had launched into adolescence but I didn't purchase my own until several years later. I just happen to have an interest in older tech and, while retrocomputing contributed has to the appreciation of former dream computers like Amigas, Ataris, Quadro Macs, and SGI workstations, it seems to have elided the more recent history of cell phone software. A history I had been a participant in but one unaware at the time of how the sausage was being made. It wasn't until several years later, after bearing the brunt of the Lumia's slow death, did I travel down the rabbit hole of phone OSes and the hardly remembered Flash-lite and J2ME games of my teen years.

1997-2007 was for mobile phones what the '60s were for mainframes, the '70s for minicomputers, the '80s for microcomputers, and (much to the dismay of IBM, Apple, et al.) the '90's for Windows PCs and video games as a whole: an inventive period of try-everything-at-least-once that can't really be recaptured. It led to all sorts of trends, some functional, some crazy (especially the Galapagos phones in Japan), some that stuck around, and some that will remain unique to the era. It's kind of disappointing to see how much of that development history is now quite difficult to rediscover and catalog. And it will be all the more difficult as time goes on. I'm just fortunate to have caught your attention when I did. You're the first person I've heard from who has first-hand experience of the backend of the cellphone industry during it's heyday.
It's already happening. Not everywhere all at once, but it's happening. The idea that no American has ever experienced anything other than suburban housing is ludicrous.

The problem with asking teachers to think on the spot is that teachers in America are especially dumb: https://www.forbes.com/sites/nataliewexler/2019/03/13/why-so...

My mother was a public school teacher.

She passed her test on the first try, which was extremely rare at her school. She was taught in India, and became an American teacher as an older woman. She was an outlier. She graduated from a major public teaching program in our state of California (CSU Fullerton).

Most teachers fail their tests on the first try. This is not advanced calculus... this is elementary mathematics and reading.

The issue is that accolades in the education department do not translate to results. The state creates a monopoly on teaching via its certification process, with means education departments are guaranteed funding regardless of their results, given that once you have the credential, you're considered 'equal' to other teachers.

Despite my mother doing very well on her tests, she was fired and not granted tenure because she didn't follow her principal's teaching methodology. Even though her students were passing their own exams at higher rates and doing better (And of course my mother taught two boys who went on to make careers in science and mathematics), she was fired for not following the failing methodology.

This is what is wrong with American schooling. It's a race to the bottom and the teachers have no idea what's actual achievement because they've never achieved basic elementary schooling, much less seen it in others.

Here are example questions: https://www.mometrix.com/academy/praxis-math-practice-test/

These are not difficult, at all.

EDIT: in some ways america is doomed by its own success, in that, for those who can actually do math, reading, and writing, there are significantly more lucrative fields than teaching. Unfortunately, since teachers can't teach those skills, it's really a new aristocracy formed by parents who do know those skills passing them on to children.

Why should there be checks and balances on AI content? What most people label as "AI" today is literally just fancy statistics. Should there be checks and balances on the use of linear regression analysis and other statistical techniques? Where do we draw the line?
Those were spot checks at best. The amount of internal goods traffic within the EU is astounding, you're looking at 10 million tons per year.
We all know people value things other than money, that was not the point.

The point here is whether there are a large number of people who would refuse a job Google for 2x their salary. On that specific point, I agree with the parent post, that there aren't that many.
"Almost everybody I know" is the key phrase there. Does that include anyone over 40, or anyone living in a rural or semi-rural community?
There's probably many.

I agree if they told you

>23 x 7 is split into ((10 * 7) * 2) + (3 * 7)

was the wrong way, then that is harmful. But if the purpose of the test was to see if you can do long multiplication, and you were not able to do it because you did not want to or like to do it that way, then that is a personal problem.

The reality is that school (non university level schooling) is not purely about education or exploring the 18 million different ways something can be right or wrong. It is also an exercise in navigating one's way around other humans and their expectations and playing the game that you will have to for the rest of your life.

There is also the constraint of limited budgets and schools having to make do with perhaps not the most qualified educators. And there is certainly lots of improvement to be made, but this "racist math" stuff seems to be counter productive.
Neat. How about a pixel art that reads "Legit certificate of vaccination" in bad hand writing (like this[1]), but actually scans to a valid certificate?

Hi Bartek, thanks for jumping in.

I am wondering whether one could forego Typescript and use one of the Ocaml/F# to JS converters for the frontend and backend code. Would it even make sense, and would it be convenient to use? How would one set up such a project?
I'm tempted to consider the logistics of the idea.

The rule of law, and the expectation that society's problems won't be solved through violence, are important pillars of our civilizations and shouldn't be discarded lightly.

On the other hand, there's a very real possibility that climate change will destroy our civilization. When the greater good is "avoid the death of billions"... then yeah, private illegal action is starting to look good.

Not that good. If you look at the fact that associations like Greenpeace that were built on doing what OP suggests have probably offset the development of nuclear power by decades, and gotten us that much closer to global disaster, you realize that direct activism can have bad consequences too.

But good enough I wouldn't dismiss it out of hand.
