To be fair, I'm not sure how common this is with new/remodeled construction in the US. Entertainment pattens have changed for the most part and layouts tend to be a lot more open. In particular, you don't see the hard demarkation between dining area and kitchen area which dates to when the "help" worked in the kitchen and served in the dining room.

Waaaaay too early to make this call. The early brands have barely begun to establish themselves.

Also, who is this "Food Institute":

> As a marketing director in the food and beverage industry, the Food Institute gives Harry Davis & Company a direct line to c-suite influencers at all of the major brands.

Is this company a vehicle for food marketeers? Are they actually placed to make predictions, or is this PR for the meat industry?
As someone who left a job in academic administration recently and who is also faculty at another university, this is not true. Administrators can invite and often can disinvite or make other decisions about talks. This kind of day-to-day running of the university has been largely ceded to administrators.

There are cases - like a brand new service - where a new language or framework is a good idea.

In some very rare cases, rewrites can also be a good idea.

But choosing a new technology just because it's new and popular? Almost never a good idea.
Japan is long beyond its thriving years. Once you go into the countryside or smaller towns, there are many boarded-up businesses, decay, and infrastructure that is in dire need of investment.
I remember way back in the mid-2000’s when gas hit $4/gal on the East Coast. Major supply shock.

Cries of “it will never go down!” and “this is peak oil!” were everywhere.

A year later gas was $1.50/gal, cheaper than it had been in decades.
Lol, no, this started back in June; Southwest cancelled 2600 flights during that month and delayed something like 40% of its flights. It's a combination of several unrelated delays (weather, ATC staffing, military exercise) propagating back through the system and flight crews timing out before they can get to their final destination. It takes days if not longer for them to resolve these issues. There's no coverup; Southwest is just stretched too thin and has let their business get too fragile. And they're not alone: I feel like no one remembers American, United and Spirit all struggling with mass cancellations over the summer.

It's a wonderful podcast. It's nothing like Joe Rogan. Here's the episode list:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006qykl/episodes/player

And note that when you click to an episode to see who the guests are (usually three professors or other experts on the given topic) there's also a reading list.

I guess it's similar to Joe Rogan's show in that it's a recording of people speaking.
None of those sound like "don't have kids" they're various flavours of "Children are not a self contained solution for everlasting happiness" which seems reasonable enough to me.
If your child is vaccinated - there is a lower chance she gets COVID-19 - the disease. And if she does get it - it will be milder. But she may not get it at all with the vaccine just because the immune system is trained to eliminate it upon entry. In the assumption that vaccine does not have any side effects, the strategy to vaccinate is strictly dominating in game theoretic sense.

Let alone the fact that she has much lesser chance of being the spreader.

Dunno why you are getting downvoted - I've been on dozens of flights from coast to coast in the US during COVID and never contracted it. I'm a routine blood donor and have come up negative for COVID every time. I'm not claiming some sort of special invulnerability, just pointing out that I'm either VERY lucky or this thing isn't nearly as transmissible as our darling media is flogging it to be.

Another habit or practice is buying single use water bottles wherever they go or drinks and food on road trips as if it’s not super easy to bring food or water. Yes, in some cases buying is more efficient but definitely not all cases and yet some people never bring food/water.

I get that decoding only keyframes will be much faster, but how can codec independence be maintained when different codecs will insert keyframes at very different points?

Could such an algorithm ever find a duplicate between say a GIF (every frame is a keyframe) vs any modern codec with very few keyframes?

(or is this optimization specifically for videos known the be encoded with the exact same codec, and specifically with a static keyframe interval?)

Consulting

A lot of consulting is technical planning and brainstorming with leadership. I used to have that kind of role, and you had a mix of heads-down work prototyping and heads-up work trying to understand requirements and think with different leaders on the best path forward.

"Off" seems to mean different things to you and me.

Suppose I am a teacher, and have two months where I don't teach students, but during those two months I take continuing education courses, and make lesson plans for the rest of the year, is that "off" in the same way that someone who takes two months from work to tour Europe is "off"?

If so, we have an irreconcilable disagreement on basic definitions.

My issue isn't 'An employer “providing” CE funding'.

My issue is that willcipriano didn't include that unpaid time in the comparison between a teacher and a hypothetical 'Person with bachelors degree'.

That is, I argue the calculation should not be based on calendar days, but on hours worked in order to have the career - both paid and unpaid.

> My guess is that CE is a rounding error in the grand scheme of things.

CE is a rounding error. Supporting extra-curricular activities is a rounding error. Grading in the evening is a rounding error. Doing lesson plans on the weekends is a rounding error.

But put them all together and it's no longer a rounding error.

There's a lot of moral hazard here. The weaker the vaccine, and the greater the dismissal of natural immunity (which according to Israeli hospital data [1] is completely superior to vaccination), the greater the profit for big pharma.

The dystopian outcome is that we basically outsource/financialise the human immune system - and that 6-monthly COVID booster shots will be forced (/mandated) on everyone, forever.

The ideal outcome is that we immediately drop all COVID restrictions and just bundle these booster shots into influenza vaccinations for the immunocompromised and those aged 70+

I would say the most important thing is a combination of two things:

1: Work on something that you yourself or your users want to exist. Don't think about what others might want. Make something that you consider pretty cool shit. Or something your users are asking for. Something where you or your users say "OMG when this is ready I will fricking love using it! I can't wait!".

2: Most founders, me included, often get stifled. They stop putting time into their project because they think it is just a dream. Remember that all amazing things have been built by people just like you. And to keep putting time into building something that you yourself or your users want.
What case is there to refuse a vaccine that is likely to add significantly more protection to the individual and community while remaining extremely unlikely to cause “other problems “?

It’s important to distinguish events that are likely from those which are unlikely. Otherwise you may mislead someone.

Svelte is pretty much JavaScript. Which samples work in JavaScript but not Svelte?

I would guess that 90%+ of all React written goes through a compile/transpile step in the development process which makes the difference between writing React apps and Svelte apps negligible.

I actually went back to React after using Svelte but I think the compile step makes more sense since you're not delivering the library to the end user.
This is true.

Propaganda by whom? Because it isn't something said by the Chinese govt or by Chinese media.

I would not vaccinate my child with an mRNA vaccine unless the consequences of not doing so would negatively affect their lives (cannot attend school in person, prevented from extracurriculars, etc.). At the end of the day it is still an experimental treatment with unknown side effects one year out, but more so because getting sick and allowing their body's natural immune system to do its job is part and parcel of being human. I would not want my children growing up with immune systems that are dependent on man-made vaccines/treatments when the statistics undoubtedly bear out the fact that children's immune system are far and away more than capable of fighting off Covid-19.

Obviously the above all goes out the window if your child has chronic conditions like asthma, diabetes, or nervous system disorders that make them highly susceptible to complications from viral infections.

I run it on my VPS along with the rest of my project.

If I want to set it up on a new server, I start a fresh Debian machine, do "apt install mariadb-server" and I am good to go.

I don't like managed services (like Heroku) because:

1: I cannot easily replicate the setup locally.

2: It creates vendor lock-in which will cause me trouble when the vendors service changes in a way I don't like.

3: I would not be able to put the whole setup of my project in one setup script. It is so nice to just have a single script that contains all the steps that need to be done (Like the "apt install mariadb-server") to run the project on a fresh machine.

I'm sorry, I don't know! I'm just really skilled at searching for and selecting restaurants with good vegetarian options.

That said, there are a lot of recipe books. And most of the ones I've seen seem to have good combinations of ingredients. There are certain things that tend to go well together (and prep techniques that work best).

In general, you have to consider both flavor characteristics (such as bitterness, acidity, "green" taste (brussel sprouts, kale, spinach, broccoli), sweetness (cooked peppers, onions), and so forth. Then you consider textures - too many crunchy veggies in one dish make you feel like you have to work to eat... LOTS of chewing. However, too many soft stuff without some firm/crunch can be like just a sauce. So you'll see things like cashews added for protein and texture, etc.

Not all veggie dishes need a lot of ingredients. Just go dine at some places that have good reviews about their vegetarian dishes to start to get an idea. But avoid the really expensive places, as they tend to like to turn everything into some kind of cream sauce :P.
Meat can hide a lot of ingredients behind one: the animal.

Maybe they fed the animal rubbish (likely in case of cheap meat), stuff that changes the color of meat and preventive antibiotics amongst other medicine cocktails.

Meat (and dairy and eggs for that matter) also comes with all kinds of hormones, as it is from an animal not much unlike the creatures we are ourselves. So those hormones also affect our system.

Yes plant-based "fake meats" have more ingredients, while also having less of the downsides of animal foods (saturated fats, sulfur-rich protein, hormones, high levels of persistent "forever chemicals").

So the choice is yours.

From what I know the plant-based alternatives are usually healthier. If you want to reach the next level use traditional meat replacers: lentils, beans, nuts, tofu, tempeh, soy-skin.
Your first statement is clearly wrong, or at least you should define what you call "lot of latency".

I agree with the macro scale perspective you're sharing.

Regarding food, there's quite a bit of flexibility in food supply- we primarily produce calories for enjoyment, not sustenance. Yes, hunger will topple governments. But "letting the market do its thing" with food doesn't necessarily mean famine. It may mean shortages of specific foods which don't make economic sense. High meat prices, unavailability of particular types of fruits and vegetables.

Famine is terrifying, yes. But we should also acknowledge that there's a huge amount of contraction that can happen in our food production systems before bellies go empty.

I like this answer, but could you expand a bit on why gitea? Never used it myself, but it looks like self-hosted OSS clone of GitHub? If so, my instinct (in terms of KISS) would be to just use GitHub, so I don’t have to set up and maintain my own thing. What made you decide to go with gitea, out of interest?
tbh, the only problem I have with the approach in the article is that they’re not being strategic about it. I’ve informally had a, “one cool idea per project,” rule in the past. So if the project itself is cool, stay conservative with implementation choices, etc. But if the project is routine, you get to experiment a little.

I lived in Tokyo for 2.5 months in a furnished 2br apartment ~7 min walk from 3 different subway stations (2 stations away from Shinjuku) for $1,500/month. The company renting the apartment caters to non-Japanese-speaking tourists and they handled all the paperwork. Visiting from the US for less than 3 months is hassle free. My experience was wonderful. I've now visited 6 times in my life and am eager to return. The streets of Tokyo (and other cities) always feel cozy to me - my favorite destination.
It's fascinating how embedding informational complexity in higher order relationships somehow gives rise to a map of represented concepts that are extendable with new data. Explainable NN models are going to be an absolute necessity - such as in the justice system or if we employ them in autonomous driving.

Ok, true. But regardless of where it starts, there would not be one spot where one part of the chain was making some huge profit. Thus, it wouldn't be as the parent poster suggested (for the feed producer or the cattle rancher).
