Tangentially, what's up with what we call that country in English?

"Myanmar" is the standard modern name and "Burma" is the name from the British colonial times.

However, we have to realize that the R in "Myanmar" reflects British phonetics and should therefore be silent. No, NPR correspondent, it's not "My Ann Mar," it's more like "Maa Maa."

Second, the renaming to "Myanmar" was approved by the ruling junta. Using that spelling for the country's name is like calling Taiwan "Chinese Taipei." Is it ethical to give this name credibility?

Finally, "Burma" and "Myanmar" are actually the same place name, written in two different orthographies. The latter prefers an archaizing pronunciation that the junta favors.

So, why still "My Ann Mar, previously known as Burr Mah"?

I wonder, is it better to black out the relevant parts of the FFT image, or is it better to adjust them to be the same as the "background" shade surrounding them?
Not new, this has been going on for years.
>Horses and seals are mammals, seals have flippers, therefore that horse with flippers you just saw has occurred naturally.

I raise you a platypus.

Your analogy doesn't really work in my opinion; a horse with flippers would be far more unexpected than that cleavage site. The cleavage site might be novel - as far as we know - but it's not jar-dropping surprising either, and something that can occur naturally in a reasonable time frame.

>But the stonewalling and the sneering at the public asking legitimate questions must stop.

I can agree with this sentiment. In fact, I think I was asking a legitimate question when I asked for sources to the assertion that there is evidence it was lab-made.

I already conceded it is entire possible it's lab made. However, with what I read thus far, personally I still think signs point to natural occurrence than lab.

Chances are we will never know. If it was naturally occurring, then we may never find the "natural source" even if we tried. And it's not like we dispatched an army of scientists to look for such a source. It's more or less the same few people who did the collection of samples before the pandemic who are the ones still doing it now, probably even less so with travel restrictions still in place in a lot of locations.

If it was a lab escape - or worse a deliberate unleashing of a lab made virus - then whoever is responsible will try to keep it calm and seems to be doing a good enough job plugging any leaks as there have been none.

I also have to admit that I confused you with the person to whom my original reply was made, who seemed far more adamant that there is actual evidence (a proposal is circumstantial evidence at best, and certainly not scientific evidence), and ended with

It was sincere. The scientific method is based on not trusting a scientist. Record your result, explain the experiment so others can repeat it. Why? Because you shouldn’t trust what someone says. The scientific process is the collective work of all those experiments and results. Trust the collective body of work produced by people. Not what someone says because they are a scientist.

Scientists were given the ring of power in political culture because it seemed the natural move and they would be the most cautious with its corrupting nature. Sadly much of science now is not real science and people are trusting them as once did priests.

In my opinion.
A ‘new type of customer’ could mean all sorts of things. In my mind it means a new sort of business for the company. It doesn’t seem crazy to me that software work should be required for a new kind of business—there would surely be new contracts needed from the legal department as well as different marketing and possibly accounting or billing. And if nothing new is needed, perhaps they aren’t really a new kind of customer after all. The DDD way to handle customers who must be over 21 is to have some type for the input of your business process, say customeOver21, and some function to which you give a customer and get back either a corresponding customerOver21. This makes sense if the kinds of customer are totally different but if, for example, you are a shop and some products may only be sold to customers over 21, then you probably want some different logic instead (eg each item may correspond to some requirements on the customer (or even some other state, e.g. max 2 of this item per customer) and these requirements can then be unioned together for all the items in a cart.)

But however you do things, I think you should work hard to ensure that it is easy to avoid accidentally treating, eg, a customer id as a transaction id or SKU id.
Your having a laugh?
Is it wrong that these sorts of books demotivate me?

I've read plenty of them years ago, but never got any real opportunities to utilize the skills. Management is so many steps away that it doesn't matter (I work at a large company). On top of that, even if I get promoted into "management", it would only be a 7% raise and at least 40% of my time would still be dev work (thanks development chapter lead model...). What's the point if there's not a clear and reasonable path to the real money ($200k+)?

Near Arctic regions like Lappland where I live fit the bill:

* plenty of hydro power (which is why there’s data centers and battery recycling);

* agriculture isn’t possible outside with no sun and meters of snow; there’s greenhouses, including opaque ones with purely electric lighting but it’s expensive;

* transport by road is common, but harder in winter without fossil fuels and battery uncomfortable at -40ºC/F.

Any local activity could generate CO2, but the biggest existing one is paper mills.

It doesn't. It moves to be in the same plane as the satellite, but it doesn't actually track the satellite.

The phased array can only track a single line across the sky. The dish moves so that line is parallel with the satellites orbit.

I have developed over a dozen iOS apps so I am sympathetic to the frustration as a developer.

But as a user I fully support Apple for curating the App Store experience. Discoverability is a challenge when you have this many apps and it's simply not fun having to wade through so many low quality, user-hostile apps.

You only need to look at the Windows Store to know that curation is an integral part of making a store work.
> …there’s a concrete, demonstrated downside to trying to do the opposite.

I feel this way about so much of the things that have happened with COVID.

We have such an opportunity to learn so much here but looking at how we’re handling the outbreaks in real time doesn’t give me a lot of hope. At this point we know which actions or lack of actions will lead to an outbreak and those communities still do little to mitigate.

Combine this with how we continually do the wrong things on so many other issues and then cry crocodile tears when we get the same results, I’m just not sure we’ll behave differently next time.
I am with you on this, they are not the same. I have a similar experience. On another thread one time to dare suggest that it’s not as simple as the CICO folks claim…apparently my 4 years and 170lbs of weight loss while meticulously logging my food and exercise and my experience I must have somehow made a mistake.

I will say this, that when my fat calories are a higher percentage in my diet my satiety with each meal tends to last longer and I eat less calories overall.

As a 54 year old Software Engineer, who has had a nice IT career for over 26 years, I'm spent.

This is coming from someone who has always had a growth mindset and had a really hard time sitting still. I used to loathe naps and felt like I was missing out if I took one. Now, I take a one hour nap almost daily and I'm finding that after 1pm I'm basically fried (I start working around 7AM).

I'm not sure what to do about it, if anything. If I could retire now, I would.

I'm trying very hard to get my earnestness about learning new things back and I'm finding that my motivation has just tanked.

I'm afraid this is a permanent state now.
Finding Closure in Rust
> Why does it need to be confined to that group?

Because they're the ones actually presenting the vaccines to the world, and being pro-vax doesn't mean being a deceitful natural immunity denier. I.e unless there is a significant overlap of [vaccine producer and vaccine approver], and [deceitful natural immunity denier] in a Venn diagram then it isn't reasonable to lay the suspicion of the deniers onto those who produce the vaccines.

> Where do I “lump people together”

By being suspicious of the vaccines due to the messaging of people who have nothing to do with the production or approval of the vaccines. That is implicitly lumping together vaccine developers, vaccine manufacturers, vaccine testers, and regulators into the same group as a bunch of politicians, journalists, and a range of other parties on the periphery all speculating or spinning things to gain a desired outcome. If that first group didn't publish the data and all I had to go on was the spin then I'd join you in suspicion, but thankfully I don't have to because I can go read the studies myself, and I was personally in one of them.
I picked up my first Latin dictionary at 19 after I found Kraft-Ebbing's "Psychopathia Sexualis" in a used book store. Kraft-Ebbing was one of the first, if not the first to academically discuss homosexuality, among other sexual practices. All the real naughty bits were in Latin so I needed that dictionary. And put it to good use.

It was assumed, at the time of the writing, 1894, that his audience was Latin fluent.

The problem is that we had put quite a few of our eggs in the AZ basket to begin with, so the loss of confidence seriously delayed our vaccine rollout. And in the end we missed out, by a couple of months, on having good vaccine coverage before the delta strain got away from us.

On the other hand, I think some of the anti-anti-AZ stuff is over the top. The increased TTS risk is by now clearly real, the non-fatal outcomes are often pretty bad, and until recently the fatality rate was expected to be very high.

In the pre-delta period, when our covid prevalence was extremely low and it was reasonable to hope that state would last long enough to see us through to the Pfizer rollout, waiting for Pfizer was probably a sensible decision ex ante for many people, even taking into account a reasonable level of pro-sociality (and even without knowing that there would be a significant difference in effectiveness).

An official or media-led decision to play down the risk would have caused some preventable deaths (and serious harm to a larger number) among people who, from a self-interested perspective, probably shouldn't have taken that vaccine in the first place. With hindsight, those deaths are outweighed by the covid deaths we're now seeing; but that wasn't obvious pre-delta, and in any case the authorities would have burned a lot of trust and given a free kick to the 'sceptics' and conspiracy theorists if they had hidden or misleadingly played down the risk.

Yup this is indeed a limitation in that once a code is used, the next person essentially has to wait at least one minute before they can get another working code.

My target is smaller teams, where collisions (hopefully) happen less frequently. If you're a bigger org, chances are you also have the resources to just buy everyone their own seat/license to the account instead of relying on the employees to share one account.
We have every reason to believe that the drone strike was undertaken based on faulty intelligence and was launched with the intention of preventing an attacker from bombing innocent people.

Insofar as France nations don't have friends they have interests. The France/Austria sub contract was first posed 5 years ago and they haven't delivered much but the projected price has balooned from 40 to 60 Billion and the original proposal was finally signed 16 months later than the proposed 2018 deadline over concerns about the suitability of the French design and concerns about the process.

The most recent milestone was this January and France again failed to meet requirements.

France is like the guy who thinks he's doing a great job who absolutely everyone knew was going to get fired. Ego alone demands that they be shocked at this.

https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/australian-docume...

In the list of goals of the leadership of nations nowhere is it written sacrifice substantial national interests in order to maintain ephemeral good will exchangeable not even for carnival stuffies at the local fair. As long as our interests align with France and they have reason to believe that our actions will consistently align with those interests we will continue to find common cause.

That is why Trump's inconsistency, love affair with dictators, and unpredictable persuit of personal interests was so damaging. It gives nations cause to doubt whether their long term interests and values are aligned at all and whether long term strategic alignment will therefore pay dividends. Chaos discourages investment of literal and political capital.

Deliver quality software? Almost certainly not.

Now, whether people actually want quality software, given that its development would take a lot of time, is debatable. Many times being the first to market is good enough, though saying that leaves a sour taste in my mouth as an engineer.
The same way every digital and retail store does: as a "channel to market" cost.

The specks on the FFT were hand removed... I thought the following: he had an image obtained after a blur and sharpening filters.

As an atheist it would seem dualism would be out of bounds so given that your brain is you in a very literal sense what other factor do you believe defines humanness? I think therefore I am seems like the strongest possible argument here.
> Australia right now is in a continued state of lockdown

_Some_ of Australia is in a state of lockdown. This includes Sydney and Melbourne, Australia's two largest cities, but the majority of states are currently not in lockdown.

Don't get me wrong: the response to the pandemic from Australia's federal government has been dreadful, and I'm not a huge fan of the police-oriented approach some states have used when they've been locked down either. But I think the first few paragraphs are alarmist and exaggerated, and that discredits the excellent discussion of the technical failures later in the article.

I have moved from Plex to Emby and finally to Jellyfin to run the Raspberry Pi media server in my camping van. The problem with Plex and Emby (other than their business model of wanting to collect a monthly fee for allowing you to watch your own media) was that they required the server to phone home before they would work. This isn't possible if you are camping and don't have a cell/wifi signal.

And Jellyfin has worked well. The server and clients aren't as slick as Plex but they work just fine and give me a lot more flexiblity in moving media from my home server to the van since the way they store the media metainfo is the same on the Mac OS and the RPi OS.
Jellyfin UI is cleaner, no upsell buttons and does not tie everything to cloud account.
