150 ICU patients is a lot. In the whole country here in Finland, there's 22 COVID patients in ICU right now. We have roughly 50% more people than in Alabama.
Even old ICE cars can do 25k miles no problem. I've taken my '04 4Runner from 170k to 200k over the past 2 years, only major servicing was the timing belt replacement (scheduled for every 90k miles, ~$2k).

I had to replace the O2 sensor too, but that was about $50 IIRC, and it took me 15 minutes in my driveway after O'Reilly diagnosed it for free using OBD2. No $3k/yr "Toolbox" sub required.
There was a time I used to have fun just building things for myself (rc planes) then it transitioned to this thing where I had to share it (forums). Eventually I would share just concepts/drawings/ideas and not the real thing. I now try to finish something before I even mention it.

There's also a flood of people's ideas/works/projects (Hackaday). I guess having personal goals is nice to pursue/not compare against.

As they say talk is easy

I used to be active on FB and unfortunately I started to post like crazy/cringe things on there, thankfully I became self aware/cleaned up my public trail. Now I avoid it. One main reason is I have over a hundred friend requests of random people (indirect family/acquaintances from 20 yrs ago) trying to get to know me/ask me for money (people from a third world country).

I'm not completely against social media, I use Reddit to look at certain subreddits related to technology, check the news sometimes, and then for brain-dead time, look at meme sites. I have had to stop myself a few times just due to how much time... that's the thing it's captivating/paralyzing the few seconds of media constantly changing (scrolling memes). But on the days when my brain doesn't function anymore, this low effort content is nice to pass the time till I fall asleep/ready to function again.

I want to get back into the groove again, isolate myself, pursue something with time. There's also that sense of being a producer vs. being an audience like the person making the videos on YT vs. the people commenting.
Indeed, it's not chemical, but it is possible nevertheless. Practicality is besides the point.

Well, my world view is that everything is conscious, including oxygen I just inhaled and that went to my brain, sugars I ate, bacteria in my gut, my blood, my dead blood cells, as well as my skin, sweat vapor, nails, hairs, teeth, cloths, electrostatic charge on my cloths etc. Dark matter, if it exists, may be the least conscious thing we know about.

I would call that consciousness a state of existing and interacting. It is a fundamental property, and can be explained only as much as color charge of a quark. For some people that's not consciousness. So, if what I described above is not consciousness, then whatever it is that you mean by consciousness, IMO does not exists.

There is also self-recognition, the red dot in the mirror etc. which is just a behavioral pattern, side effect of intelligence.
There is already a working PC emulator for ESP32, and the 86duino is a thing.
Having raised a seed and A-series in the last 1,5 years from top tier VC’s in the B2B space: this post is 100% spot on.

Will recommend.

We actually used the YC seed and A-series pitchdeck templates the OP mentions.

Last thing: everything becomes 1000% easier if you have customers. Focus on customers. Raising becomes almost easy after that.
Agreed it's intuitive, but also this research provides (for me at least) more support that this type of "problem space exploration" is not necessarily procrastination, but it's instead a key and necessary component in creative productivity.

Yes I'm a bit confused about their motivations too. Sharing what I've pieced together so far (and trying to approach this from a good-faith perspective):

My understanding so far is that they run a Postgres consulting firm [1], and it appears they took the liberty of registering a Postgres trademark for the class of "professional services" in order to (I presume) protect fair use by their firm and (they claim in their response) by others in the Postgres community.

Some of this is admittedly speculation on my part, and I'm trying to take a charitable view of their actions to try to understand why a community member would do this.

That said I have no opinion on whether this action is net good for the community, and I'm not a Postgres user so I have no horse in this race. It's just the social dynamics of this situation that are interesting to me.

> In a generation or two, children will look with disgust on the aging adults who routinely ignored the horrors of ongoing animal abuse (by consuming meat).

I suspect it's hard to find a place to watch it, but "Carnage" addresses this very point. I highly recommend it for meat eaters and non-meat eaters alike.

> Carnage is a 2017 mockumentary directed by Simon Amstell. Set in the year 2067, when veganism is the norm, the film looks back on meat-eating today.

Chickens are pretty stupid. They do stupid survival things like pooping in their feeder, but they'll then refuse to eat their food because they can see it's contaminated. They do stupid social things, like killing other chickens because their pecking order instinct causes them to peck at a visible injury, making said injury worse, but they have social interactions all the same. They go into a panic because of stupid triggers like a rag blowing in the wind and ignore actual dangers like a tractor, but they're definitely able to be scared. They don't learn many verbal commands like a dog could, but they recognize the face of their owner and will do behaviors likely to get them fed. Pigs, some cows, and some goats are as intelligent, emotive, and personable as a family dog, but chickens are just not that smart.

However! They're identifiably, understandably stupid, like a tiny human with terrifically poor planning, observing, memorization, predicting, social, and emoting skills. It's not an alien kind of stupidity like that of a fish, insect, plant, or rock (or computer program). I can say with great confidence that chickens are quite low on the emotion/intelligence spectrum, but in saying that I'm quite confident that they're on it.

If your criteria for animal cruelty is achieving a particular level or capability on the sapience/sentience spectrum, you can feel pretty safe eating chicken. If your criteria is that they not posses intelligence or experience emotions at all, you'd better go pescatarian. Or eat mutton: if sheep have any intelligence at all it's completely undetectable to me.
Yeah... I'm trying to do RA campaigns in hard and some missions are really difficult (and I use the save a lot to backtrack in time). I always played in easy or medium as kid, so made there's that.
My point is that the "standard" fee is premium when compared to Uber which tends to cost half as much in the countries where I tried it.

Aside from solving the trust/scam problem, that's one of the reason why people like Uber - it made 'car as a service' affordable. Without Uber, I might have bought a car, because a factor of 2 completely changes the picture.
EVs are going to transform the developing world, in conjunction with solar/wind/storage solutions.

The EVs will be small motorcycles, e-bikes, scooters, etc. You get the EV with a 100 mile range, you already have a (used) panel. The small EVs can be quickly recharged because they are small (or battery swaps, which are far more feasible on e-bike/e-scooters).

Starlink or cell towers provide the internet.

As stated in the article, air quality will increase substantially.

Unfortunately global warming will disrupt everyone's fundamentals: water and food.
Some taxi drivers in some countries are sole proprietorship, technically companies, but still I would call such driver going bankrupt for failing to pay lease a not a employee.
That has nothing whatsoever to do with the question at hand.
> Those with extreme views certainly do exist but they tend to be pushed to the front by those who have vested interests against homeschooling.

On the flip side, many homeschoolers have encountered public school teachers with extreme views. Extreme views may be fairly well distributed throughout society.
Humans are nearly the same when exhibited the similar conditions (US jails and prisons).
Yeah, nothing controversial. This isn't even at the level of some general moral debate or whatever. Had Google banned porn from its search indices, that would be different, but it would also be a good thing that is unlikely to happen given the utility of porn as instrument for political control, Wilhem Reich-style.
Technically, all these users are getting Facebook services for free. Is the complaint here that some people are receiving lesser free services than other people's free services?

If that's the case then we need to look at the value of said free services.
Well, 'need' can be synonymous with 'not burn money in a way that leads to bankruptcy'. Uber is largely an uneconomical business that won't work if they end up having to keep their <10 hours a week drivers AND pay benefits.
I'm willing to be the "office" will be a competitive advantage in the future.

> Huh, never thought I’d see XCheck in a news article.

Is everyone at Facebook this naive? You didn't think a system that creates a secret tier of VIP accounts where the rules (and laws) don't apply while publicly claiming the opposite would end up ... in the news?!?!
What kind of benefits do you mean? It’s a very common construction in The Netherlands.

I met someone who was a falconer, I suspect that's a general bird trait. Punishing them doesn't compute. They just think you're a jerk.

Apparently with falcons and hawks in particular you can cause them to regress with certain missteps, and have to train them again. He had said something about going out of town and having to start over with some behavioral training they'd worked out before he left.
I'm not very familiar with the topic myself, but I did want to note something. A lot of the discussions surrounding politicalization of public schools with various topics read a lot like how people argued against teaching evolution in public schools.
I'm afraid you on the other hand vastly underestimate what an outlier farms like yours are when taking the whole population into account. For the amount of meat that is consumed, such production also wouldn't be feasible to provide for everybody - that's why i think OPs point is very valid, without _reducing_ total consumption, there simply is no "not factory farmed meat".

Considering the population has grown, and cost of life (specially rent) is inflated compared to the 50s, I don't really see any path to achieve what you propose without really reducing consumption.
> It seems insanely simplistic to say that "we can grow this phenotype in the lab, so it'll be exactly the same as one raised in a barn or on a pasture."

Why would it be exactly the same? We can probably make it better. Perfect marbling on every steak.
Probably the students who get the most education in ethics are law students, and we all know that lawyers are not considered the most ethical of professions. I find these demands for more ethical training for various technical and scientific professions to be thinly veiled requests for indoctrination into a particular orthodoxy. For example, the embedded video ties the desire for quantitative information to "misogyny and colonialism". This does not seem to be the sort of unbiased ethical foundation one would hope for.
How weird it is that "Company Finds Legal Loophole That Allows Them to Sell Things To People" is news!
It seems to be a strange opinion in the modern era due to the known benefits of diversity of thought in problem solving.

This is assuming a good faith argument (steel-manning) on homeschooling as normally practiced.

I.e. I expect new education models to arise from parallel experiments like you see in America versus a monolith.
Given how many of the personal attacks on Steve are saying almost the same thing, I don't know that it's "at least five". It might be just one person with multiple accounts. If it's more than one, they're all following the same idea of what message they should be using to smear Steve...
No one seems to bring it up here (why?), but the #1 benefit of homeschooling for my family is faith-based education. In the US, approximately 2/3 of homeschooled children and the three most popular homeschooling curriculum providers are explicitly Christian. I love it that my children, and increasingly the children of others, have the opportunity to be brought up in God's instruction. It is not up to the government what my children believe or how they're educated. I hope this trend keeps growing!
I usually don’t take notes. When I do need to take notes, I create a .md file in VSCode and store it in a Notes folder.

I’m also currently giving FSNotes a try and I actually like it, it might become my go to notes app.
That requires actually removing the wheel, breaking a sweat, and getting dirty...
In Spain, a Foundation is a very strong legal entity scrutinized by the Ministry of Justice. This means, among other things, that:

* Every action of its board is supervised by the Ministry of Justice.
* No action or change to the status can go against the initial will (which is part of the Estatutes, in particular Articles 3 and 4). Even if anyone would try to change them, they could only be done in a way that respects them. This is what is called "the founder's will".

So it's a very protective non-profit, which always needs to serve the public good and the founder's wills, which are Articles 3 and 4. And there's even public supervision for this.

We believed this form of a non-profit is much stronger and better to protect a Community like Postgres from potential rogue actors.

As an aside, we contemplate honorary (non-voting) members. We believe is a good thing. I'd also propose the same for Core --I believe at least Bruce Momjian should be named as such.

A “major win for Epic” that apple is rejoicing over and Epic is protesting and appealing. It’s headlines like that that reveal modern publications are merely blogs with no fact checking or editorial standards that just uncritically repeat uninformed social media takes.

How is this a Linux Foundation issue? The LF usually has board seats reserved for folks who are maintainers, committers and so on, essentially represents all the interests in the community.

Don't put this on the LF, this is definitely on the folks who bootstrapped the foundation and setup the governance in the way they did.

Average yearly mileage is greatly affected by where you live. Someone who lives in a rural area is almost guaranteed to put far more miles on a vehicle than a person who lives in the city. It's the difference between a 15 mile trip to the nearest grocery store and a 45 minute commute on open roads to taking the bus to work and only using the car on some weekends.
Perhaps they want to lay claim to it and use it for themselves and this is how they start, even though it is done by you?

This should never have been made, I apologies
1. Others have answered it well. Tons of languages have pipe operators. I used | in my example because I figured more readers will recognize bash piping than other notations.

2. Yes that's what I mean by dependent types, where types depend on values, like f(0): string and f(1): int. And yes, they totally are orthogonal. However, pure functional programming tends to lean on its type system more than other styles, in my experience. But then without dependent types, something as simple as loading a CSV gets hairy relative to something like pandas's pd.read_csv. Maybe others can go into why pure FP and static typing go so much together, but I gotta get back to work.
I grew up on a small farm with chickens. They had plenty of space, were free to roam the yard during the day and yes, they could be vicious and cannibalistic if a chicken was injured.
I love scrapy! It’s a wonderful tool.

One of the most underrated features is the request caching. It really helps with the problem of finding out your spider crashed or you didn’t parse all the data you wanted and rerunning the job. Rather than making hundred or thousands of requests you can get them from the cache.

One nitpick is that the documentation could be a bit better about integrating scrapy with other Python projects / code rather than running it directly from the command line.

Also, some of their internal names are a bit vague. There’s a Spider and a Crawler. What’s the difference? To most people these would be the same thing. This makes reading the source code a little tricky.
I have no ethical qualms with killing animals. I do all my own slaughter and processing and exclusively eat meat that I either killed myself (pigs & chickens on my farm), or that I traded with farmer friends for (sheep & beef) who have similar standards as we do.

Once you are actually in contact with the food you're raising and agriculture in general, I think this becomes much, much simpler an ethical question. I mean, even just the animal impact on a vegetarian diet becomes much more questionable after you witness a finish mower grinding up a half-dozen foals during cutting, when you witness the mass habitat destruction wrought by GMO soybean monoculture, etc.

It becomes even more questionable when you bring up livestoc raised on land otherwise unusable for agriculture--dryland farming in Montana, wherein stocking rates are very low, land is intensively managed, and the alternatives presented by the lab-grown meat folks tend to always rely on rowcrops destroying otherwise great animal habitats.

Finally, the more we learn about plants, the more it seems they're far more capable of what we might call "cognition" than we did in the past.

Nature is competitive, and we are the peak species of evolution on earth. To me, this doesn't mean we try to walk the lands while sparing all life possible. Rather, to me, it means we become stewards of the land and its inhabitants. Hunters are, to me, the prime example of this. Hunters are responsible for vastly more improvement to natural habitats and maintenance of trophy species than vegans, and I'd bet have a much greater positive impact on the environment than animal-lovers who eat tonnes of rowcropped vegetables.
Citizenship is here to slow down the rate of change of the country/culture/population, which is something many country want (and by country I mean either the people voting, or the people in power).
> The big reason for homeschooling is that you can push your own politics or religion on school more

As a descriptive claim, this might be true (wouldn't shock me if the bulk of parents choose to homeschool for religious reasons). But if it's prescriptive, it's horribly wrong. A moderately intelligent child with moderately thoughtful parents will learn far more outside the school system than within.
Are fog of war, veteran units, hotkeys, stances, game replays, mods, custom maps, and custom campaigns really considered "modern" "post-90s" features? Myth: TFL had all of them in 1997.
Historically, political debates have had the potential to be very hot and include duels and beat downs. We're talking explosive stuff like franchise, rights, structuring economies. I don't buy your argument that it was defanged by gatekeepers.

I do think one difference is the chance of repeat engagements. If you and I are neighbors and debate over dinner, well, I'm going to see you frequently. We both need to be kind enough to continue that relationship.

Online, we may debate and never bump into each other again. We can block and ignore. It's to my interest to behave greedily and "dunk" on you, insult you, etc to try and score fake internet points since it's a single engagement with spectators.
How old were they? I found that around late-middle school/high school, homeschooled kids really start to fall behind. Maybe it was the limit of parental knowledge, I'm not sure.

Craig Wright falsy claimed to be Satoshi Nakamoto, and sued the owner/maintainer of bitcoin.org to remove the white paper, since Craig (faketoshi) said he had a copyright on it.
Faketoshi is an awful person and is suing bitcoin devs left and right, so Cobra, the psudoanonymous entity who controls bitcoin.org decided not to defend themselves in court so their identity wouldn't be revealed opening themselves to further lawsuits from faketoshi.
The result is faketoshi automatically won in court and bitcoin.org can't display the white paper in the UK
I'm at almost a week since looking at Facebook. Like you, I curated the content pretty well, but also wanted to avoid it being an echo chamber, so I don't think I unfriended more than 5 people in a decade because I disagree with them politically. Those were only because they were constantly posting inflammatory memes, always picking fights, and full of negativity. I don't need that in my life or in my feed.

A few weeks back, Facebook changed their algorithm significantly for me. Suddenly I'm getting tons of pages you may like, random comments from friends on pages that are completely useless (stuff like "What street did you grow up on?", "Only 17% of people can remember their kindergarten teachers name. What was yours?", "What do you think about this Manhattan loft?"), etc. No matter how many times I marked I want to see less content like this, it kept feeding me that crap. I don't want reactionary stuff force fed to me.

I'm sure I've missed a couple life events among friends I'd find value in seeing, but I haven't missed it enough to login.
