Another possibility is that we're seeing phantom patterns in the data which are really just noise. Maybe the differences between countries and seasons are mostly random? That's basically the null hypothesis and I haven't seen anyone convincingly disprove it.
Azure Pipelines is just slow. I'm not sure even how to fix it.

I’d say it’s more shocking how little they pay. These are founders who’ve created trillion dollar properties. Them being hurt or even hassled would potentially destroy billions in market value. If I was a shareholder, I’d insist on spending POTUS-tier security.

I was pretty sure that you can approximate this in aws iam just with policy conditions on “aws:CurrentTime”

But after much googling it appears not! Seems like a fairly simple additional variables aws could pass through and condition to support, so you can say “only allow this request if the signing time is < 1min ago”, closest you can get is that the policy is only valid after X date! Is a shame!
I've done accuracy studies of the G6 for a submission to the FDA, and while it's true they do filter out spikes, they're never more than 5mg/dL off from the measured value (which itself is usually within 10% of the real value). Interstitial lags are closer to 5 minutes when you're not experiencing severe perfusion issues, which is more than close enough for making dosing decision, especially considering subcutaneous insulin has similar or longer lag times (depending on lots of things of course, and subject to an individual's own body).

never in my life I would slander my employer in such a way, never!
Argentina definitely has its disadvantages, but there are advantages too. Healthcare access is universal. University education is free and open to everyone, and although most of the universities are not that great (and none are R1), there are two world-class universities. It's illegal to arrest people for using or having recreational drugs—not generally my thing, but it wasn't Breonna Taylor's thing either, and in the US the laws give the police free rein to loot houses and kill people with the excuse of looking for recreational drugs. The homeless people here are afraid of other homeless people, not the cops like in the US, and actually there is vastly less homelessness because of less rigorous enforcement of building permits. We have the best ice cream in the world, the best empanadas in the world, and the best thieves in the world. Public transit here is better than any of the numerous places I lived in the US, almost as good as in New York. There are single blocks of Buenos Aires with more bookstores than most entire cities in the US. Raising kids is a reasonable thing to do in Argentina; in the US the shittiest people harass you if you breastfeed in public.

The biggest advantage, though, is that when the covid pandemic hit, the people in the US went totally nuts, saying that the government is controlled by a secret Satanic cabal of pedophiles who sacrifice children to drink their blood, that masks cause covid, that the vaccines are fatal, and all kinds of nonsense like that. Europe doesn't seem to be coping that much better. Here in Argentina, meh, it's just another crisis. It's shitty but not as bad as the crisis in the 70s when military dictators overthrew the democratic government, outlawed playing cards, and started rounding up their political opposition and dropping them out of airplanes. I literally don't know anyone who got raped because of covid, much less murdered.

But yeah credit card transactions can take a minute or two, the economy sucks, and ordering things from overseas is difficult and risky.

It's been pretty helpful in gaining perspective on the bullshit I grew up with in the US.

> I think it makes sense to tax actualized gains at the point of sale.

There are a lot of loopholes that should be closed.

Let's say your parents buy an asset and you inherit it when they pass away.

Logic says that if you eventually sell that asset, the appreciation is the difference between what your parents paid for the asset and what you made from the sale.

However, a tax loophole resets the value of the asset to what it was theoretically worth when your parents died, which renders nontaxable the capital gains that occurred during their lifetime.

Scrolling through some of the comments here, I haven't read anything that praises ads. Which begs the question, why do we still tolerate ads? If employees from Ad companies themselves use adblock (!!!), something must be fundamentally wrong.

Isn't it about time we change the financial model of the internet? Or should we just let humanity suffer through this non-value adding ritual?

Personally I've never bought anything directly because of web ads. I understand that some people do and that some people find them beneficial. But I believe the cons outweigh the pros this time.

I don't claim to have a solution, but it annoys me when we all agree that something sucks yet do nothing about it.
It might not be just one day. When it's the TSA, you're getting robbed at an airport, so roughly 50% of the time, nowhere near where you live. So it's a few days' trip, plus airfair, probably a hotel, plus finding a lawyer to represent you, plus legal fees. And that's if you're confident that you can prove your innocence -- which is an immensely backwards notion of justice. Also, interacting with the legal system in this manner is irresistible bait for cops -- folks are rightly intimidated, because cops can generally make your life hell through perfectly legal procedures.

And, actually, poor people frequently don't trust banks and will keep their life savings in cash. That can easily be tens of thousands of dollars, it only takes putting away $500 a year for 20 years. Do you think they're gonna have adequate records to prove that all of that was legal income?
Some parts of GitHub (and pretty much all of GitLab) require JavaScript, that is probably what is being referred to there. Some GitHub features require logging in just to view, which is annoying.

Also, there are lots of great GUIs for git these days. On Linux gitg by GNOME is probably the most user-friendly one. I am not sure how many of them support GitHub-specific features like pull requests though.

depends on what yardstick you're using to measure success I guess.

Sweden's COVID death rate per million was 1,440. Similar countries like Norway was 159, while Finland 192.

In values of human life I think they probably could have done better; but economically, maybe it was worth it to them?
You probably won't be in there for long, if ever, if you're a standard new player. It's a factor most serious anti cheats consider, not the only factor.

That is you came in on an account that had existing game time or existing purchases or you hop on with a friend in good standing or you bought something in game or anything to indicate your account is actually valued by a legitimate player in some way you won't even see this process.

On the other hand if you're a fresh account with 0 time, 0 spend, and the only people that will friend you are accounts that accept every request or are known for accepting new cheaters expect you aren't just going to be dumped into the clean player pool on your first night. Not only are you the hardest type of player to prevent false positives for but you're the least likely to ever be profitable to server anyways.

Even if you aren't immediately uplifted some strategies mean you may not care if your initial nights had a higher risk of cheaters anyways matter. E.g. Fortnite is F2P but your first night you aren't likely to run into many real players. Both because they want you to get some wins to get hooked but also because it dilutes the amount of cheating new players will see.
I love CDDA, but it's not nearly about simulation as DF is.

Serious question then. Replace stocks with "rich aunt, who has me in her will". Should i be taxed on that? It's unrealized income, which will be taxed when transferred, but until then it's just theoretical.

I really wonder how different the mobile security landscape would look if researchers were treated seriously. This is a mistake that Google, Apple and even Microsoft (for the short time they made phones) all made, and now we have to live with the consequences of that. Along with your "post privacy" world, we may as well march this as the epoch of "post security". It just depends on how much someone is willing to spend to engineer one (or three) zero-days from your target's machine. This used to be feasible, but recent ransomware and surveillance malware has proven that it's commoditized now.
I've used them and they're great just pricey
I don't buy expensive shoes, so it seems obvious to me that it's cheaper to replace than repair, so I do that.

But I do have one expensive ($150 on sale, $300 retail) pair of winter bike boots, and the soles gradually detached from the uppers, letting water seep in. I took them to my local shoe repair place and they made them good as new for $25. Total bargain.

So, it's worth a shot.
- JS requires a large amount of dynamic allocation

One of the top listed features of this interpreter is a fixed memory footprint

- JS is a relatively complicated language to evaluate

In developing this interpreter they eliminated some of the languages features to make it simpler.
yes. I have been getting russian language spam in my main inbox for a week or so. I don't know russian.

However, even weirder is a series of emails I've been getting for nearly a month now. They are always from randomized emails and claim to be different people but they are always about someone named Becca and some guy. Sometimes they are accusing me of being this guy and harassing Becca. Sometimes they are saying someone stole Becca's phone and was impersonating her friends. The weird thing is that none of these have any links.

Here's one from yesterday: "Beverly hacked all your stuff made fake account of you on Facebook apparently you have a new house and going to hurt Becca if she doesn't stay away from you . Apparently according to the rude message Becca Lynn received y'all aren't friends anymore ... That made Becca cry "
But there aren't any links or anything like I would expect if it was typical phishing emails. Maybe they are just sending things out hoping someone will respond?
That's just like your opinion man. It would be my first choice.
Hmm. Hard to monetize I guess. Does anyone know of any code analysis software that looks at dataflow? Specifically for embedded contexts, a lot of code is written in a very non-functional style, where the output of one module is a series of global variables. That variable is then picked up by other modules as an input, and used to calculate that modules output, etc etc. I'd pay big $$$ for any software that would tell me "modifying variable X will affect downstream Y which will affect Z"
Yeah, I said "fuck it" when they started buying corp bonds… DeFi only now, and just finished getting an audit for a decentralized derivatives protocol that was seeded funded with a decentralized incubator.

We're planning on the protocol being able to lend liquidity into existence out of thin air (well more accurately, taking advantage of collateral dynamics and protocol stablecoin flows) and packaging that debt into decentralized stablecoins denominated in $…

Thanks to the moral hazards, they've have motivated me and others to pursue alternatives that in their eyes have systemic risk, and I'd agree, very risk to their bailoutistan system :D

There isn't a conspiracy being suggested. The use of this term was heavily promoted last year by certain people and news outlets towards a certain demographic.

Why can you guarantee that?

Also, this article was written in November 2018, and here's what it says:

> the battery can be individually replaced in the new MacBook Air [...] In all other MacBook and MacBook Pro models with a Retina display released since 2012, when a customer has required a battery replacement, Apple has replaced the entire top case enclosure, including the keyboard and trackpad.

This implies that, at least from 2016-2019, they were replacing the entire top case assembly in MBP. I have no reason to doubt they still are. The article is mainly about the MBA so it is a little confusing, to be fair.
Seems inarguable to me that JavaScript is much more widely known and adopted than Lua. So it makes sense to use JS in 'toy' like environments where someone is learning an embedded platform.
I like to think of myself as a "pragmatic libertarian". My problem with true Libertarianism can be summarized by the idea of fully private roads. There would be no public land - it's all privatized and therefore every road is a toll road. That's a hellscape I can't imagine ever working smoothly. Some collective society problems are best solved via government - as messy as that is. I think America's response to this current pandemic is not exactly a ringing endorsement of libertarianism. Now if you want to quibble and say, "well lots of folks aren't practicing the true responsibility that libertarianism requires" - I agree! And until our society can show that they can exhibit true personal responsibility than I don't want to see what true libertarianism would bring. I once read someone summarizing modern day libertarianism as "anarchy for the rich" - and that's how I've come to see it.

So I say that because while I somewhat understand and respect Thiel's idea's. His vision of America is not one I care to live in at this time. And I wonder if in 100 years will we look back and say, "Thiel was a net positive influence on the human condition and society?" At this rate I'd say no.

The Moderna vaccine is 98% effective in preventing severe disease but only 63% effective in preventing infections. Those vaccinated but infected people can still spread the virus, although they're probably contagious for a shorter period on average than unvaccinated people. Note that data was largely gathered before the Delta variant became prevalent so the current numbers could be a little worse.

https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2113017

Preliminary data from Project Salus indicates that mRNA vaccine effectiveness against infection quickly drops to 41% among elderly patients. Hence the recommendation to administer a third booster to them.

Google could definitely act on it further by leveraging their agreements with vendors who ship the proprietary Google components of most Android devices. That risks those vendors reimplementing the proprietary components from scratch though, which would fragment the Android ecosystem further.

I would tend to agree actually that digging a ditch on the beach together with the kids, seeing it fill with water, frantically trying to keep the walls from caving in and ultimately loosing to the incoming tide regardless is much more fun than digging a ditch in a swamp somewhere because $EMPLOYER likes swamp ditches. But swamp ditches pay the bills.

I will happily dig beach ditches for employers, no doubt, but only with adequate shade and breaks (don't work 80 hour weeks), drinks provided etc.
The email she uses is the main email address from her ISP, so she can also reset it by requesting a reset code by text (or, at worst if she also loses her phone, by going to a store and showing her ID).

After thinking about it, the only real problem I found was indeed the extra hassle. I stopped trying to convert her to a password manager after that.
He probably has mostly off duty/retired cops working for him so they can bypass concealed carry permit restrictions and let them all carry firearms in every state under LEOSA. It's also a good way to avoid jurisdictions that are very restrictive with issuing CCWs since they sometimes require bribes as part of the application process[0][1].

> pet food is safe for human consumption

This is false in general, and dangerously misleading at best. In particular, some dog foods contain ingredients (bone meal IIRC, but don't rely on that) that can pretty much destroy a human's intestines (which are much less hardy than most animals's because coevolution with cooked food allowed cost-cutting). Pet food sold in California might (might) be required to be safe, but that's dangerously unreliable at best.

There are downsides to donating food. One of them is that it damages local farming; another is that it brings more dependent people into the world, duplicating the problem.

Not sure why people are surprised by this anymore. Google is SkyNet, then again most people don’t care. They use the catchphrase, “I got nothing to hide.”, which misses the point entirely.
I'm glad they have made progress in that area. As others have pointed out it can sometimes be tough to track down sources of costs in AWS as well (especially if you accidentally started something in a zone you don't normally play in). I'm still gunshy though.

AWS have a setting in their billing that can fire off if you have exceeded a certain threshold which would be pretty much invaluable if you're running something that auto-scales.
The only facts that we really can observe:

- Apple managed to get through all the regulation "mandates" without any serious repercussion to their operations, showing the complete lack of effectiveness of said regulations.

- market conditions and the development timeline of the technology (USB-C with power delivery) can alone explain the gradual change in the Apple product line.

Those are the facts. Now let's go to the opinion part and apply Occam's razor here: between the explanation that requires believing that Apple is changing its products out of fear from EU regulatory bodies (despite historical evidence of the contrary) and the explanation that says changes were bound to happen anyway due to being sensible business, which one is simpler? Which one is more likely to be correct?
Perhaps, I’ve thought about that possibility without knowingly hearing it from “them”. We also struggle with heroes, I’m wondering if there’s a secular void that’s being filled too.

Wonder if the strongly religious get caught up in fanboihood as well.
Usually it doesn't look like that, the first part is self contained and the remaining are small additions that they figured out in the moment. If you tell people to stop doing that then all that will happen is that they wont write those clarifications.
