There has been a big jump in online grocery delivery during the pandemic in the UK. I suspect many people are continuing with online delivery even though pandemic restrictions have eased.

The pandemic really exposed some of the supermarkets and retailers with no online delivery offering (at least in the UK) e.g. Lidl, Aldi, Primark. All the supermarkets remained open during the pandemic, but the ones without the online delivery option missed the opportunity to expand in the online grocery market.

I'm sorry, I think you have it exactly backward. The vaccines are not well-tested. Ivermectin, on the other hand, has been used safely in humans for about 40 years. Dr. Varon, developer of the MATH+ protocol, attributes his much higher than average treatment success rate at least partially to the use of ivermectin.

If I was in charge of this project would seriously consider as a goal to clean the waters enough to allow the survival and massive reintroduction of Painter's mussel in the city.

Small native species strongly linked with the history of the country. Its direct link with the Flemish painters school, and with Brussels old kitchen would have a strong touristic appeal.

Would have also a educational value creating a sense of proud among citizens, and a big environmental value as umbrella species for introduction of nature in the city and other endangered species of native mussels.

All that they need is to assure to keep a minimum constant quality in the water and suddenly you have an army of small long-lived water plants generating crystalline water for free as result.

A start could be to culture it in temporary flat cages that could be moved to other places in winter or if needed. Could be seen as a live water analysis system that will trigger a fast alarm in the case of toxic waste being dumped to the streams. You could put 'live filter cages' with a lot of painter mussels and maybe a few number of rarer species here and there among them and place it as necessary. Seems feasible.

I think you misunderstand corporate middle management.

As a manager in a large corporation you are expected to be an aligner. That's the basis of the job, the least you can do. You need to align your team with the goals of the people above you. Note that I purposefully did not say the goals of the corporation. Large companies are political by nature. Different levels of the companies may have different goals. Finding a way to please the people that matter to your progression is your role.

If you want to move up as a corporate middle manager, you definitely have to contribute to process and provide useful feedbacks to your boss. But you need to be savvy in how you do it. You have to manage frictions and strive to make the people above you look good. It's very different than in a small company because there are far more toes to step on and you have to use a lot more tools to create leverage.

Corporations value people who are good at politics more than anything because that's how they work. If you are openly clashing with other managers and your hierarchy all the time, you are doing it very wrong.

The thing to pursue in life is joy. Some find joy in their work.

However, there are misguided people who'd lead others to conflate materialism and capitalism if possible.

If the root causes is:

- Financial constraints

- A harasser

- A medical problem

- Etc.

a therapist/counselor can't help you very much. Whenever I've had issues I needed help with, there were real issues behind it. A therapist/counselor won't be able to do much, if anything.

If you're making a $350k salary in a hell-job while having $100k in financial obligations, the solution is simple enough.

If you're making a $350k salary in a hell-job to pay for your kid's medical problem and meet mortgage, talking to a therapist or "just quitting" won't do much.
Subclassing (and inheritance in general) makes it pretty difficult to follow the control flow as a given function call could resolve to one of many implementations, but there's nothing in the calling code to indicate which ones. Better to use composition and code which explicitly delgates to a sub-object where necessary.
just because it's possible does not imply that it's viable at a commercial scale. i guess the point was, that this has changed.

likewise the average temperature over the year does not neccesarily depict climate in the vegetation period.
China is a billion people economy, it's a strong opinion to say that "everything out of china is the same crap". You can order anything for manufacture there at any quality point and nobody forces a dept store to order the exact same clothes from the exact same factory (out of tens of thousands factories) as the neighbour store.

I'd attribute it to laziness. I mean, they might actually DO check where the neighbour store orders from and order the same.. :)

Then again all the clothing stores where I live have inventory and different sizes and definitely sell different things than the other stores so I guess this trend is not universal hopefully..

These must be different from the environmentalists that think the world is on the verge of a grisly doom where war and famine tear us apart that we have to pay any price to avert.

If the climate crisis is remotely comparable to a nuclear meltdown then we can go back to sleep. The fallout from all the nuclear disasters has been much more bark than bite.

Oh, another ignorant HN thread on Afghanistan.

Before posting, understand this:

- most Afghanis are Muslim to their very core. Nothing is as important to them. The very idea of secular is offensive to them. Honor killings of relatives are not to protect their personal honor, it's to protect the honor of Allah and the Prophet - it's a no-brainer to them.

- Afghanistan's borders are contrived. Afghanis care about where their tribes live, not what foreigners tell them. Those tribal borders overlap into all of their neighboring countries.

- the distraction of the Western media about women's rights is truly bizarre. In Islam, women have rights inside the home but not outside. The Koran prescribes modesty for both men and women. The West will never change that.

- the Afghani national army didn't lose because of lack of air power. They just don't care to fight their Islamic brothers. Why would they?
> So in the end, aren't you more secure using a hole punch method for direct connections over the internet for P2P communication, even on IPv6?

No?

It sounds like you're reinventing authentication, badly. If you want to control which clients are permitted to access a service available, we have well-established ways of doing that. Dynamically messing around with the network and "hole-punching" is not one of them (unless you broaden that to mean VPNs, but if you want a VPN, use a VPN!). If you don't want anyone on the internet to be able to SYN/ACK to a TCP service you put on the internet, don't put it on the internet.

Also, insert standard soapbox speech here about how the contextless phrase "more secure" is meaningless. More secure against what? What's the threat or risk you're trying to control?
One reason climates won't simply shift is that the length of daytime and the changes in that during the year will stay the same.

What Is Keto Plus Pro Ex (UK)?
The USSR's call to develop and produce the Tu-144 seems to have been a mistake - in hindsight naturally, but also at the time: The European Concorde was targeted at the rich, whose time was so precious that they absolutely had to get across the world much faster. The USSR was a poorer country, and though it too was stratified (to bureaucrats with country Dacha's etc.) - it did not have a jet-set of multi-millionaires to cater to as air travelers. Plus, I believe international travel both within and outside of the "Soviet block" was much more limited generally. So there was simply not going to be demand for it. Combine that with the significant technical challenges and chance of accidents and I just don't see how that makes sense.

But - I'm no "Sovietologist", so do enlighten me if I'm wrong about this!

Instructions for deleting your location history and disabling location reporting on a Google account:

https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/3118687

It's unclear whether this is enough to prevent a geofence warrant from sweeping up your data.

For additional security, an Android user can stop using Google Play Services for geolocation. This can be done by disabling Google Play Services or switching to an Android distribution without Play Services, at the cost of slowing down the process of getting a location lock (since Play Services uses Wi-Fi and cell tower trilateration to accelerate this).

Another solution is to replace Play Services with microG, which allows you to use a selection of non-Google location providers for trilateration, including ones that work fully offline. Android distributions that pre-install microG include CalyxOS, LineageOS for microG, and /e/. Alternatively, DivestOS includes the location module of microG (UnifiedNlp) but not the other parts.

I bought an artistic light as a present from Amazon, for about £15. John Lewis had something that looked similar, but a bit nicer, and was about £100. Amazon light arrived two weeks later. Person plugged it in. Bulb immediately blew. Person replaced bulb. Ring main RCD tripped. Person gave light (now unwrapped) back to me. A 13A fuse was installed on a "110V max 100W" luminaire, with evidence of melted plastic (Britain uses 230 VAC, and a ≈1A fuse would be safe). Cheap Chinese crap is dangerous.

What a stupid statement.
Nuclears costs are mostly spent on planning/design/r&d/permitting/consultants.

The actual amount of concrete and steel needed is very low.

If we could get a consortium of countries together to design and build 500 identical nuclear plants to power 50% of the world for the next 50 years, it would surely work out cheaper.

But the minute every reactor is custom the cost advantage will vanish.
However, the processing after the cone cells can't introduce any new information. It just creates a new coordinate system on the 3-dimensional space described by the cone cells.
Yeah, and I wonder if these idiots know much about it. Depending on the reactor type and whatnot, you can re-use waste, and what you are usually left with is a very tiny amount.

Anyway, I had this discussion many times here so I won't get into it, but nuclear is pretty damn safe, and I can't wait for ITER.
All of the cost projections about solar and wind do not include the cost of storage. That is because they are running on a grid which has a baseline of power production from fossil fuels and nuclear.

Take the baseline power away and the cost equation dramatically changes.

Nuclear provides more emissionless power than solar and wind combined.

Anyone who claims to be an environmentalist who is against nuclear power doesn't really believe warming is a threat.
Yes, the fact that they choose a neutral association name ("The World Nuclear Industry Status Report") when they are actually a militant antinuclear association[0] makes their message way less credible.

Be aware that this is state-sponsored german media. The only country in the EU absolutely not going to even extend nuclear but instead run lignite plants instead.

Also, most establish environmental protection organizations and activists are deeply anti-capitalist and massively left-leaning, so they automatically are against any technology that can be controlled by large companies. Did you notice how fast Greta Thunberg was away from the front stage of all established EPOs like Greenpeace after daring the sacrilege to endorse nuclear?

Sometimes it's fun to pretend that the real purpose of all the anti-nuclear talk is to gradually create a situation where humanity cannot continue using electricity the way it has been, to literally disempower humanity and cause people to become accustomed to tiny trickles of unreliable electricity.

That's surely just a crazy flight of fancy, though -- since we're in a "climate crisis" where the earth will be overheating, politicians will surely arrange for us to have great bags of cheap, plentiful, reliable power for our air conditioning so that we don't go back to the days of, say, 1911, when tens of thousands of people died in heatwaves.
