Never seen this before (I'm not IT though), but they could be paying some cash to get insights into customer needs in order to better target their intended audience. Whether to better their product, or just use what you say to better market it (hoping if they say we realize you have "xyz" concerns that it will build credibility with their intended customers like "wow, these people really get our struggles") is hard to tell.

It could also just be a scam to get you in the room and then try to sign you up for some product. Probably not worth your time unless you really need $350. I'd suspect it comes with some loopholes though, so I would personally avoid. Reminds me too much of how they try to get people to show up to learn about time shares.
At least start putting out feelers and start interviewing. For me at least that helps with the feeling of helplessness. I've had a pretty stable career and some disappointments with interviews, but at least feeling like an alternative was possible was empowering.

Can you reach out to your previous employers and former colleagues to let them know you looking?

In terms of the new personalities and organization, have you taken any actions to try to break inside the new "in" group? Meeting with the new personalities, finding problems to collaborate on, etc...

YMMV but I have seen that dynamic happen- management starts with "thier" people then adopts inherited people as thier own.

However, given my read of your post, I definitely would include looking for opportunities outside the company in your strstegy

Fun fact, the clinical trials for hydroxychloroquine were basically shanked by data which made it appear dangerous that turned out to be completely fabricated.

https://www.the-scientist.com/features/the-surgisphere-scand...

As a standalone medication or one administered late in the disease hydroxychloroquine has not shown any real promise. When paired with TMPRSS2 inhibitors it may have some promise: https://journals.plos.org/plospathogens/article?id=10.1371/j...
See my original comment.

That's a common element to any observation-based system.

Or, put another way: if a dead planet orbits a black dwarf whilst tidally locked in an utterly dark Universe, does time exist?

Is the observer necessary?
> What problem was it causing, other than making Microsoft look bad by showing that the real problem exists?

That's the real problem. The issue is that Microsoft looks bad. The problem was solved by making Microsoft not look as bad. Verbatim output of inputs is not a problem, it's an understood property of the model.
Why do you mention hydroxychloroquine as if it were snake oil? At least some hospitals here administered it as part of their covid routine, ostensibly because they believed it helped according to the science.
A challenge with evaluating such software is assessing its accuracy. Lots of software could draw you a map of signal strength, but how do you know it is accurate?

It's like a lot of fitness devices: At least for early devices, they would display the number of steps you took, etc., but a few sources actually tried to verify the results and found they could be wildly inaccurate. (Most people didn't seem to care, of course.)

"HTML and CSS 2 do not have any provision for automatic hyphenation and current Web browsers support, even for manual hyphenation, is poor.

So don’t justify text on the web."

I've been waiting for this to be fixed since 1997. I suspect it is a very difficult problem to get right. My Kindle accidentally hyphenates things like "Walde-r" and "Lannister-s" (yes, I'm reading GoT again).
> There are plenty of restrictions on denying service.

The restriction, is literally, "You cannot refuse service to people in a protected class." The burden of proof is on the person who was refused to show that, beyond a reasonable doubt, the reason that they were refused was due to them being within a protected class. It's not a low bar to clear. It has been this way since the civil rights movement.

listed a couple points of interest:

> A 2011 study investigated the impact of ivermectin on allergic asthma symptoms in mice and found that ivermectin (at 2 mg kg−1) significantly curtailed recruitment of immune cells, production of cytokines in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluids and secretion of ovalbumin-specific IgE and IgG1 in the serum. Ivermectin also suppressed mucus hypersecretion by goblet cells, establishing that ivermectin can effectively curb inflammation, such that it may be useful in treating allergic asthma and other inflammatory airway diseases

> Ivermectin has also been demonstrated to be a potent broad-spectrum specific inhibitor of importin α/β-mediated nuclear transport and demonstrates antiviral activity against several RNA viruses by blocking the nuclear trafficking of viral proteins. It has been shown to have potent antiviral action against HIV-1 and dengue viruses, both of which are dependent on the importin protein superfamily for several key cellular processes.
"I disagree with abortion" isn't a protected class. That's how we reasonably make the distinction.

They were careful, otherwise they wouldn't have labeled it "primates", but e.g. "monkeys" instead.
As a doctor, someone tell me where I can sign up for some of these pharmaceutical incentives. I guess I am out of the loop as after a decade of practice, no one has come knocking
Damn sorry I can’t imagine how I would feel, would probably end up in jail or shot myself if some goon tried that to a loved one in front of me.
there’s actually a different procedure if you are on government issue it’s the governments bill, so if you get injured they won’t suggest the same care right away that they would to someone who had better insurance. you do not think this is happening but my mother and sister years and years ago did medical transcription (before speech to text was a big thing) and the notes from the doctors were insanely prejudice towards people who did that dress well, or who used government insurance. today’s standards talking how they talked would get anyone fired, but that attitude is still there with certain doctors. so yeah i still believe care is withheld due to insurance. it might not be done out of mistreatment of the patient but purely procedural, like an mri cost more than an x-ray, so they will suggest the x-ray first and never bring up an mri until the patient insists on it, that’s the type of low key care difference.

there has not been any studies on this to my knowledge but i’ve experienced it before with friends who do not work jobs that provide healthcare options.

i am not sure if it is done consciously or not, a lot of judgements are subconscious and that will affect outcome.
they are not conflating it. they literally describe the difference in the article you posted.

> Dr. David Boulware of the University of Minnesota says the drug’s side effects are mild at two or even three times the usual human dose. But formulations for farm animals might contain 1,000 times what’s safe for humans.

People need a prescription for Ivermectin (human dosage) but since they can't do that. They're taking the horse paste version without understanding the difference or knowing that its a much higher concentration..

And what are you talking about with "pharmaceutical industry propaganda?" Ivermectin is literally owned by Merck, who has said not to take it. The pharmaceutical industry would be the ones actively profiting of Ivermectin.
> For example, I’ve yet to meet a libertarian who cares about their carbon emissions

Something tells me you’ve yet to a meet a libertarian at all. Being held accountable for your pollution of others’ property is a tenant of libertarianism.

> Same goes for coronavirus - they don’t care if they spread the disease to others

This sounds quite the opposite of libertarianism. Hurting/killing others isn’t part of the ideology.

It sounds like you’re just describing people who don’t understand science, which has nothing to do with libertarianism.
Easy, zero cost medicine allows proper medical advice to mitigate these myths
Great point, thanks. Also worth adding that individuals in a protected class are not there by opinion / decision (not to imply that they wouldn't be if they had any other choice!), e.g. one does not choose to be gay, black, etc. Pro-life ideals are an optional belief.

The word "portable" refers to the distinction of using assembly language programming versus a language like C, which with little modification can compile clean on the target OS...

I agree that to take a program from one unix and make it work on another is a tedious task, but the difference is minimal when you compare portability of architecture specific assembly language code. It is the reason "portable" languages like C were created.

A interesting observation I had recently was that some people who tend to have views around recreational drugs that can be described "live and let live" are up in arms about ivermectin. I know a guy who uses horse tranquilizers recreationally who posts on Facebook everyday about the "morons who are taking horse medicine". Personally I don't care if you use either, it isn't my body.

We are in a age where you no longer must be remotely logically consistent in your arguments and it's fascinating to watch.
This is a bizarre stat:

> By mid-August U.S. pharmacies were filling 88,000 weekly prescriptions for the medication, a 24-fold increase from pre-COVID levels, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Meanwhile, U.S. poison control centers have seen a five-fold increase in emergency calls related to the drug, with some incidents requiring hospitalization.

So despite prescriptions going up x24, and some unknown number of people taking veterinary versions of the drug, emergency calls have only gone up x5? Wouldn't we expect it to be around x24 or greater?

Also, the lack of stats on hospitalization is interesting, in that there aren't any. From another article on the same subject, Mississippi at least has apparently had zero (https://msdh.ms.gov/msdhsite/_static/resources/15400.pdf).

This whole thing just seems like a manufactured story that gets clicks because it plays into prejudices about rural Americans.
I believe you are right than many pro-choice advocates have lost the plot and think it’s about the right to choose to kill vs choose to cut, or that right comes from a lack of personhood.

However, that aside, my point is that once you take death as inevitable, then the mechanism to do may fall to minimizing suffering. And so, it stands to reason that a procedure which a) doesn’t result in long, perhaps painful starvation and b) doesn’t put the mother at risk by having a dead fetus inside of her are worthy considerations. I do think that you are right to think that the violence of current procedures, while perhaps ethical due to minimization of suffering, may be contributing to moral confusion about the right to cut vs right to kill or the dehumanization of the fetus. I do fear that as this moral confusion winds it’s way upward, the rights to abortion may expand beyond viability, which to me would flip my position on where I stand with regards to maintaining the legal status quo vs reversing it. I support Roe v Wade but would not support a law which gave a mother discretion to terminate past viability.
> The Tuskegee experiment specifically targeted a selected group of African Americans.

Ah, and if they did that (and a thousand other things, many of which were not limited to African Americans, including the aforementioned MKULTRA) and suffered no repercussions for it whatsoever, well, I'm sure they still learned their lesson and would never dream of doing something like it again.
> Storytelling is the only way to argue any point

Depends on your definition of storytelling, but generally this is just false.

So let’s run with that thought: the governments of almost every nation are outright lying about the vaccines. Also, a supermajority of folk have been vaccinated in most of the advanced nations.

Now what? The government lied and… the plan is to have 80% of the population die? How does that benefit those in power? The economy would crash. Production of everything—food, cars, houses—would cease. Healthcare, education, policing, infrastructure maintenance—all would collapse. First-world society would disintegrate.

It makes no sense to believe the powers that be are lying about the vaccine.

Oh, and also: the unvaccinated make the vast majority of hospitalizations. Now the lie is even more crazy: the vaccine is obviously great at keeping people out of the hospital, but also the governments are all lying about the vaccine. It’s just sheer crazypants conspiracy thinking, through and through.
I can proudly say I am one of those people building a private, better, future :)
Funny enough, I had this same problem recently where I quickly found out that using "max" would make my problem nonlinear.
Ivmmeta is a website, not a medicine.
Iirc several distributions tried out tmpfs-based /tmp a few years ago then reverted. I think the problem was just that some Linux-specific software and sysadmins had grown up expecting to be able to write a lot of data to /tmp. Limiting it to 50% of RAM (the default iirc) didn't go well. The distribution people didn't want to deal with converting those things to use /var/tmp so they backed off. I don't think it helped politically that the systemd people were pushing it, as those folks were already perceived in some circles as dictating too much about the direction of Linux.

This is all from memory and I'm on my phone, so no citations. In any case, I don't think inode numbers were the problem.
If you're an adult without dependents then food stamps last for three months. After that you're required to work or be in a work training program for 20 hours a week. There are some areas that provide some small concessions to this three month limit but most places do not. You also don't qualify if you're an unauthorized immigrants, or a certain type of lawfully present immigrant. Also don't qualify if you're on strike but their unions should be covering them if it's that drastic.

It is literally: work in our system or starve. There is no free food unless you're doing something 20 hours a week that has government oversight (i.e. tax forms).

Depending on who you ask, adding a hack like this in an attempt to make them not look as bad just makes it look worse. Especially when the hack is discovered.
That's nice.

The problem is crime is skyrocketing and people who think they can fix it just by busting heads with more cops really haven't a clue. The increase of crime is a symptom of wicked inequality that is perpetuated and even cherished by the upper class. This is just a side-effect of greed. More cops won't solve it.

This is a misunderstanding.

Being gay is protected, as is being Christian, both.

Demanding a cake that expresses certain beliefs such as celebrating gay marriage or trangenderism or any other thing may not be protected by law.

Just as demanding to be sold hosting services for your anti-abortion hotline based on your Christian beliefs probably isn’t protected by law.
> The Daily Mail and featured clips of Black men in altercations with white civilians and police officers. It had no connection to monkeys or primates.

I'm guessing it ingested the Daily Mail's comment sections.
They are. If they weren't, they'd say "People are overdosing on ivermectin by taking doses intended for Horses." Instead they call the drug itself a "horse dewormer," and make it sound like that's its exclusive use, and that it should not be taken by humans in any dose. That's false.
The "debate" is hilarious, overblown and infantile, like always, but yeah the facts are pretty simple: Great for worm problems (river blindness being a worm problem). No reason thus far, other than wishful thinking, to believe it's good for anything else.
I would like to know if the model was poorly trained or if this was caused by a malicious individual modifying the algorithm to generate offensive suggestions.
I'm all for more human-friendly ideas but why do we have to go so far with our next step as a general 4-day workweek or basic universal income. Instead, guarantee that every worker has the OPTION to work part-time and also that overtime must not be a permanent condition (with heavy fines for companies who don't care). After that, we can talk about a general 4-day workweek or similar. (I know, e.g. the Netherlands are far more advanced regarding part-time work than other countries, maybe they can go further.) Go step by step.
Yes. Designing boards around the shortage is quickly becoming a new artform.
That was exactly the situation of the baker, despite much confusion around this topic.
This is where I got my information:

Since algorithmic systems “learn” from the examples they’re fed, if they don’t get enough examples of, say, black women during the learning stage, they’ll have a harder time recognizing them when deployed.

It is not women vs men. However, anti-choice policies do have outcomes that disproportionately burden women, which is another way of saying such policies are misogynistic, which is... sexism. You can argue sexism only counts as such if there's intent behind it, or you can argue the sexism here is less important than other considerations, but I don't think it's derailing or distracting from an ethical issue to point out this sexism. It's something worth considering when deciding on the ethical issue.

Again: even in "pure" science, you are generally making value judgments when studying stuff like "what makes something a member of a species", "what counts as a life for the purposes of this study", etc. E.g. a scientist may use the biological, ecological, or evolutionary species concept to study a population of organisms, depending on what question they're trying to answer. There is no "objective" answer to what a species is; it depends on what question you're trying to study. Similarly there is no "objective" answer to when life begins; someone can pick "at conception" or "at first breath" or whatever, and then we have to have a value discussion about why that, why not something else? See also https://slatestarcodex.com/2014/11/21/the-categories-were-ma..., which argues well (in a different context) how this sort of thing works.

The Texas law is far more restrictive. Six weeks is much shorter than first trimester.
Do you have any evidence that doctors are withholding access to anti-parasitic medication for patients who test positive for parasitic infections?
I can understand an anti-parasitic drug having an effect on bacterial infections. Bacteria falls under what we classically define as 'life'. Bacterial, fungal and parasitic infections share much more in common than viral infections.

Viruses are a completely different form of life that causes illness in a totally different way to other forma of infectious organisms.

Consent isn't a question in the Texan law. Get raped by your dad? Have the baby or get sued.
Well, it sure is too bad that this law meant to bypass constitutional precedent by relying on private individuals to act as DAs might be slightly hampered by other private individuals denying them the use of their platform for this purpose.
I read some of that issue but it seems to be about OpenVSX, and one of the solutions was to try switching to the official extension marketplace, probably against ToS. That seems to not be sabotage.
