As I read it, "correct response or an error message" does not include "approximations". Your app either runs on it or fails with an error. I assume many apps use quite a limited set of T-SQL features when going through Entity Framework, for example, and that's the market AWS is after.
You don't have to believe me when I say psychiatrists don't tend to do things not involving drugs, you can read this quora thread:

https://www.quora.com/Why-don-t-psychiatrists-do-talk-therap...

You've shared a belief that a patient will continue to see a psychiatrist when not being given drugs. Since psychiatrists don't tend to do talk therapy, I will reiterate I don't believe this is correct.

I'm sure there are exceptions- a wealthy person might find a Doctor Frasier Crane type Doctor to do talk therapy- but they would be paying out of pocket. I know the local Ivy League school only takes a special Ivy League insurance offered only to the Ivy league school's students and staff. The wealthy- and their Doctors- don't need to worry about the "rules" set by insurance companies.
Unflattering observations are fine, if they're based on solid evidence or at least some sort of logical process of determination. You do neither of those things and just throw around your personal opinion as gospel. It's unnecessary and doesn't add anything of value to the conversation.
AFAIK latency only matters when a new block is found and the pool has to send new work to the miners. Losing, say, 100 ms out of every 10 minutes sounds negligible but maybe it's worse than that. Given that you're talking about a multi-million-dollar installation, a tower with a long-range Wi-Fi link may be practical. Starlink also has the problem of waiting months to receive the equipment.

From our experience, if we price too low we get people who expect the world for bottom dollar. $199 is more the minimum price point at which we’re generally willing to take someone on a customer, than a reflection of the price of a base configuration server. Anyone e-mailing us for a quote, if they seem like they’re on the up and up and we like what they're about, we will usually give a pretty good discount. Most business nowadays are for people ordering several servers at a time and they will always request a custom quotation anyhow, and we're pretty aggressive with larger volume orders.

Sorry, the website is pretty outdated. We're almost exclusively rolling out AMD EPYC3's these days, and we'd price any of those older configurations much lower than what the website lists them at. Nobody, other than spammers, ever orders through our website (although to be fair, our website may be to blame for that also). We get all of our business through word of mouth, and keep busy enough on that alone, so the website hasn't been a priority.

I just had a doctor completely mis-prescribe Azithromycin to me. They prescribed 5x the correct dose. I even asked them three times about it before leaving the appointment and they looked at me like I was crazy. Luckily my parents worked for Pfizer for a combined 80 years and confirmed my suspicions before I started taking it.
Exhaust valve seats. If you don't use appropriately hardened seats, you need lead to help cushion the wear between the exhaust valves and their seats in the head.

If your perfectly reasonable next question is, why aren't standard aircraft engines just built with the appropriate seats, well, then... The answer is low market volume coupled with high regulatory hurdles. There aren't any villains here, just written-in-blood safety regs coupled with a small enough market that there is a lot less money available to fight inertia.
It's really frustrating to watch this play out. There should be a disclaimer in the social sciences with these sorts of studies.

>The analysis also found that 25% of vaccinated household contacts still contracted the disease from an index case, while 38% of those who hadn’t had shots became infected.

I cannot believe that we've come so far as to federally mandate a vaccine which apparently only reduces your chances of getting infected by a family member from 38% to 25%, over a virus with a 99.99%+ survival rate in healthy individuals under 50.

In light if these numbers, note that the recent approval for use in children [0] relied on Pfizer's own risk/reward calculation, and probably used far more optimistic efficacy values in their forward modeling of reward. In fact this has been the case for all of the rushed approvals to date. At best the vaccines were approved for the alpha variant and the models are no longer valid, yet the approval and mandates persist.

I wonder, if our institutions had any semblance of consistency, how many posts claiming "safe and effective" need to be taken down for misinformation?

I checked out a Temperpedic at a mattress store and liked it, but didn't like the $3-4K price tag. After checking on Amazon, I bought this one, figuring that for less than $300, if I hated it and bought the $3K mattress, an extra $300 isn't important:

Reading the comments on AZ, the less-deep mattresses have firmer support, so I got the 8". I did add this topper (not foam) after a few months:

After a recent playthrough of Privateer (1993) I realized I could almost play unsighted. Reading missions and commodities and dodging asteroids we're the only features truly requiring sight. And with tweaks even those could've been done unseen.

As soon as you identify a label that can be used to deny free speech, that label will be applied to everything and everybody in an effort to deny free speech. It is extremely important to defend free speech. Some people get confused and think that a defense of free speech is a defense of the label.

Historically, the ACLU is one of the most well known organizations to defend free speech regardless of label. They should not create such a gaping vulnerability in their strategy.

Don't announce to the world that any case involving the word "crypto" will not be defended. Or the words "carpentry", "space", or "elephant". The issue should be free speech, not miscellaneous labels.
Is your stance that the archive should continue to list information that can put someone’s life in imminent danger (the address of someone receiving death threats, for instance)? I would find it hard to defend such a position.

I don’t even do this, it’s too easy to sidestep. For example using any GUI client where the current selection or statement is executed by default. (Yes this is very useful, no I am not interested in being convinced not to use these tools thank you.)

Instead I do my dry run queries with a read only user and I select the affected data, often using CTEs (or temp tables where performance is an issue) to model any intermediate state. I don’t ever run any writes of this kind without review, backups, and automation.

Ahh. Yeah, that's unfortunate but explains this choice.

btw, I realized I'm not being entirely fair in saying it caused a bug. There would have been one anyway. If conflictsBuilder.Wait() failed, it wouldn't cancel the other two operations.

The third sentence of the article: "Only certain lighter than air gases are suitable as lifting gases."

Diborane, among other things, autoignites in an oxygen atmosphere at 38C, and also burns on contact with water. It manages a rare NFPA fire diamond of 4 4 3.

It is tough to be a less practical lifting gas than hydrogen cyanide or hydrogen fluoride, but I think diborane manages it.

>Because of the exothermicity of its reaction with oxygen, diborane has been tested as a rocket propellant.[32] ... Diborane is pyrophoric gas. Commercially available adducts are typically used instead ... The toxic effects of diborane are mitigated because the compound is so unstable in air. The toxicity toward laboratory rats has been investigated.[38]

What about them? It's Pfizer's job to quantify how their vaccine prevents these in kids, not mine. Perhaps redo the trials with a larger population?

One more note. The vaccines effectiveness agains infection fades over time, going even in negative territory. There is the US veteran 6 months study (55% Pfizer, -3% J&J). There is the UK PHE data showing negative VE against infection (up to -50% for certain age groups), but there were some arguments about the denominator. A preprint of a Swedish total population study just dropped, and VE against symptomatic infection after 9 months is in negative territory (-15%). Everybody that quotes VE against infection is quoting outdated data, either original trials or studies with a cutoff <6 months since vaccination. Worse, VE against severe disease also significantly drops over time, the Swedish study looks bad :(

(Not happy about any of this, btw)

Assange says he passed it onto his "LM guy". Do we know who that was?

It would be interesting to see him identify his "LM guy" while under oath. Is the act of passing the hash over to a LM cracking expert a criminal act unbecoming of a journalist?

That's a time-stamped conversation. I wonder if the US captured any other comms to/from Assange around that time so they could already guess who the "LM guy" is. Very concerning.

I don't think this is unexpected, despite what some posters grasping at the last speck of hopium might say. With prolonged contact like this, Delta can replicate and spread from even an average initial viral load before the anamnestic response kicks in enough to clear the infection.

That is disruptive, it hurts the economy, but there is no fuel shortage, you want it you can get it, for some people it just costs more than usual (for 3 days). If this was a time of war no one would care, your tanks and logistics can all still fuel up.
> The API has to be designed to support context cancellation, and most of the standard library is.

Important parts of the standard library are not designed for contexts. Let's say I want to write data to a file and then cancel that. How do I do that? `os.File.Write`, `io.Copy`, `ioutil.WriteFile`... none of these let me cancel a write.

The `io.Writer` interface not supporting contexts also means things like the compress and archive stdlib packages don't support contexts, among several others.

Most of the rest of it has had contexts bolted on in nonstandard ways. If you want to use contexts, you can no longer use "net.Dial" or "net.DialTimeout", but must instead use the awkward "(&net.Dialer{}).DialContext" method. The http package has similar issues, including non-idiomatic context usage.

The go stdlib was mostly built before contexts existed, has promised backwards compatibility, and it really shows.
For many indoor plants, soil acts as a porous environment for roots to hang out in, where there’s humidity and air.
