It looks like a pretty standard scan to me and the article says the protocol used is an extremity protocol.

I work in radiology and various non-human things go though the scanner from time to time - fruit, pets, fossils, broken equipment that needs internal visualisation (sort of like the patients).

I spent a few years with a Huion screen tablet (GT-19 series), but pressure sensitivity response was really bad compared to a Cintiq. However we are comparing a 400€ product to one that is about 3K€; second-hand it can trade for under 1K, and then it is a reasonable alternative.

With a Huion 1060+ the pressure response felt amazing; however that was on Windows, I never got it to work under Linux. For a hobbyist it is a really much better choice than the cheap Wacom (e.g. Bamboo line), because it is important to have a big drawing area, so that you can draw from your elbow and not from your wrist.
Depends on how many people are on the bus. Many buses have terrible load averages, good buses can do a lot better.

IMO most bus operators do a terrible job at serving people and so it is no surprise that people don't ride.

No. Normal ICBMs are already hypersonic weapons.

Talking about "hypersonic weapons" is talking about gliding or maneuvering hypersonic warheads or cruise missiles. (btw. Space Shuttle was hypersonic glider)

China and Russia are developing hypersonic gliders to maintain their capability and create more variance. The US ballistic missile defense can't protect the US from Russia or China (nor it is intended to do), but it requires some adjustments. More ICBM's, warheads throw weight, and counter-countermeasures and different trajectories.

For example, the fractional orbital bombardment that China tested is an old concept. Together with a gliding warhead, it means that China can maintain deterrence with fewer missiles.

Tether’s Bad Month: CFTC, Bloomberg, Reggie Fowler
This is old news and this program is a borderline scam used to inject naive (mostly American) retirement dollars into hopelessly backwards and corrupt remote Italian villages. I'm an Italian citizen and I've been to these villages. They can't even pay young Italians to live there. The local governments are so inept and corrupt doing literally anything becomes a 6 month long nightmare of paperwork and petty denials. Many people buying these houses find out later that there is a 1 year deadline for completing the work, and that unless they use the very expensive and slow local craftsman the permits will never get issued. This program is for suckers and is designed to part them from their money and give it to local mafia run govts and tradesmen.

This title is incorrect. The article is about the way plaques grow (distributed growth of many vs expansion if a few) rather than any sort of mechanism for what causes the disease.

Well, we all know these houses a in bad shape and require a major investment but I don't think this is a problem.

Fact is, you will create a tax liability there since most of this programs don't only require you to renovate the house, they also expect you to move there. . As much as I love Italy, I would not take the house with 50k USD on top of it for free.

Don't worry. Other countries will follow soon as online work becomes more available and the societies overage more. For some countries a collapse may be unavoidable. Crazy real estate prices? No retirement for you but please pay the retirement for the boomers? Sky high taxes? Good luck!

I'm very confused by this comment. There are a ton of other things you need to implement if you want to have desktop applications. POSIX does not specify any APIs for graphical applications. You might be thinking of something else.

I guess the question is, what data does Huion’s software send back?
It’s flat out wrong to say vaccines do next to nothing against the delta variant. You can trivially examine this but have chosen not to. My state, Connecticut ,publishes weekly in depth reports that break down cases. Nearly 100% of infections are delta. You’re about 5x safer worth a vaccine than without - for catching COVID, hospitalization, and death. 2/3 of the cases in CT are amongst the less than 30% unvaccinated. CDC dates are similar.

Market share describes what state the world is in. I don’t see what bearing that has on a discussion of what the world should be.

OpenBSD implemented the ASLR security mitigation as default in their operating systems first. Windows and macOS followed years later. I don’t think they did so because of OpenBSD’s market share.

The point is not so much how easy it is to mock, it's getting visibility into what should be mocked. Mocking moment.js with jest is relatively trivial, but your test is not going to warn you that your mock became inert if the implementation switched to date-fns.

I've seen a number of occasions where a test using a mock passes one day then fails the next day because it turned out the mock was setup incorrectly, and the test was actually relying on wall clock, and it wasn't at all obvious that there was an issue because you could not statically analyze whether the mock was applied correctly.

You can also turn a Bash function into a script command with almost no effort, such as making a file called "run" and putting this in it:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

set -eo pipefail

function hey {
echo "Hey!"
}

TIMEFORMAT=$'\nTask completed in %3lR'
time "${@}"

Now after running a `chmod +x hey` can run it with: ./run hey

Feel free to replace "time" with "eval" too if you don't want your command timed.

This is a really useful pattern because it means you can create a "run" script with a bunch of sub-commands (private or public), auto-render help menus and create project specific scripts without any boilerplate. Bash also supports having function names with ":" in the name so you can namespace your commands like "./run lint:docker" or "./run lint:frontend".

I have a practical example of this sort of thing here: https://github.com/nickjj/docker-flask-example/blob/main/run

I've written about this pattern in more detail here https://nickjanetakis.com/blog/replacing-make-with-a-shell-s.... It's basically a less limited Makefile for when you want to make project specific aliases. This is something I use all the time now.

Thanks for sharing this, I'd been doing this on my own for my own stuff (eg. foo.txt-xxh32-ea79e094), but it's good to know someone else has thought it through.

I ran into the problem once where someone had named some files foo-fb490c or something similar without any annotation, and when there was a problem, it took a file to figure out they were using truncated sha256 hashes.

> some kind of law of nature

See upthread: law of identity. That's even higher than nature.

> The IEEE754 equality function is defined such that it can sometimes be false when applied to identical operands.

Cool! So, OK, (1) don't promote that function into the fundamental equality operator of programming languages; put it in a library. (2) provide a real equality in parallel.

I should be able to do things like this:

double x = find_number_in_list(list, number, not_found_nan);

if (x == not_found_nan) { /* wasn't found */ }

I see you are referring to "identical operands"; that requires the intellectual basis of an identity relation under entities are identical to themselves. Otherwise there is no foundation for your sentence.

We can have all sorts of weird functions whose properties are useful insofar that they remove complexity or verbosity from specific scenarios in which they are used.

For instance, it's useful to have a numeric equality operator which tests that two values are within a small epsilon of each other and reports true. That's not even an equivalence relation though; near(A, B) and near(B, C) does not imply near(A, C).

It would be pretty irresponsible to put this behavior into the principal equality, like the one and only built-in == operator of a language or what have you.

> there are very good reasons why NULL = NULL is false in SQL.

I don't know much about SQL, but I understand why, in a join of two tables based on some field equivalence, you wouldn't want to include the entries where the fields are NULL.

However, there is no conflict here with the Law of Identity.

In a database, a NULL field is an external representation stored in a table. We can define a model of computation whereby when the database record is internalized for processing, each NULL field value maps to a unique object. This is very similar to the concept of an uninterned symbol in Common Lisp:

(eq '#:null '#:null) -> NIL

The #: syntax, whenever scanned, creates a new symbol object. There are two different objects in the above eq call which only look the same when printed, because they have the same name. This idea could be used to implement null database field values.

However, we can retain the idea that if we pull a null value from a specific field from a specific record, that null value is equal to itself. We do not have to throw the Law of Identity under the bus, in other words:

(let ((sym '#:null)) (eq sym sym)) -> T

If we do the following in SQL (pardon me if I don't have the syntax right), I expect the table to be replicated in the selection:

select * from X where X.Y == X.Y

records where Y is NULL should not be missing. If A and B are different records in this X table, such that A.Y and B.Y are NULL, then A.Y == B.Y can be false; that is perfectly okay.

vim user here. Most of us are running the same linters and language servers as every other major editor, which does a pretty good job catching stuff like this. Modern vim is really only a C core with a web of JS, Python, Lua, and vimscript using the exact same third party solutions for every other part of an "IDE". emacs is probably similar, but no personal experience with that.

> Renewables need to be combined with power sources that can be turned on and off quickly and on demand. Nuclear emphatically cannot provide that.

--- start quote ---

Modern nuclear plans with light water reactors are designed to have strong manoeuvring capabilities. Nuclear power plants in France and in Germany operate in load-following mode, i.e. they participate in the primary and secondary frequency control, and some units follow a variable load programme with one or two large power changes per day

The minimum requirements for the manoeuvrability capabilities of modern reactors are defined by the utilities requirements that are based on the requirements of the grid operators. For example, according to the current version of the European Utilities Requirements (EUR) the NPP must at least be capable of daily load cycling operation between 50% and 100 % of its rated power Pr, with a rate of change of electric output of 3-5% of Pr per minute

Most of the modern designs implement even higher manoeuvrability capabilities, with the possibility of planned and unplanned load-following in a wide power range and with ramps of 5% Pr per minute

>Many video games have very poor or bare plots, but amazing settings.

Cyberpunk 2077 is also a great example of this trope. Night City itself is magnificent, and the missions aren't half bad either, but the main storyline is tiresome and has no satisfactory outcome. It feels as if they tried to have a deep plot but ended up botching it.
Just don’t forget to install the correct Ruby version, of course keeping the system’s Ruby intact, so better use RVM for that, and of course you shouldn’t install random gems globally, so better do the whole thing via Bundler, and of course don’t forget to check in the Gemfile.lock too.

Or you can just use bash and keep your sanity.

I would be very surprised if this actually works. Ocean fertilization has been tried before and busted.

Fundamentally, you are supplying the nutrients that are limiting growth. You get a bunch of growth because of that. Most of what grows is eaten by other things up the food chain--atmospheric carbon dioxide becomes bound up in algae, fish and the like. When things die they mostly are eaten by something else. However, not every scrap is eaten--what isn't eaten falls into the ocean depths were bacteria get to it and produce methane.

The end result is more fish to eat but basically no change to the greenhouse effect as methane is far more potent than carbon dioxide.

Also, ocean fertilization only works to the extent that you can supply the missing nutrients. Dump too much fertilizer into the ocean and you get algal blooms that are bad for everything else in the ocean.
Fun shell function fact: used to be if you `break` or `continue` in a function without a loop, bash would find the loop:

breaker_breaker() { break; }
foo() { breaker_breaker; }
while true; do
echo Loop
foo
done

bash dynamically crawled up the call stack until it hit a break-able loop. If you squint it almost looks like exception handling! Anyways this no longer works in bash, though it still does in zsh.

The problem is that hardly anybody does a clear cost calculation of a nuclear powerplant.

We know roughtly what it costs to build solar or wind. There is a bit of subsidies and commercial parties take care of the rest. In the short term we need natural gas as a backup for solar and wind. But even that is not hard to build.

And then we have nuclear. Projects that are late, projects cost way more than projected. Building a nuclear powerplant takes so much time that financing the project is almost impossible.

Today, nuclear is just not a practical option. We need to build as much non-fossil capacity as we can and as quick as we can.

In future, we have to solve the storage problem for wind and solar. If that becomes a problem, then nuclear may make a comeback. At least, if somebody can figure out how to accurately project the cost and construction time.
Have a read up on what the dose is and what this equates to. It’s low, and importantly, the alternative tests are pretty invasive.

Well, the Tragedy of the Commons can also be modeled in game theoretic terms. This is logical only in the extremely oversimplified given scope. If you ignore all externalities (possibly including your own future needs), resource exploitation can appear to be a rational course of action.

But ignoring them, I would say, is not in fact logical or rational.

> The establishment of "Space Force" is overblown as a story

In the immediate sense yes: Space Force was just taking existing departments and putting them in a separate organisation.

But this has long term effects, cutting them free of the Air Force oversight means they are no longer bound to the Earth in a very concrete sense. It seems that while they were part of the Air Force, someone though it fun to put in their mandate that they should defend all US interests in space, which in particular means everything NASA has sent out.

Now that they are an independent organisation, that what they develop their culture around. Space Force is already putting out material with a view on how to fight around the moon! There's nothing much on the moon of course, but still they are anxious to know how to put weapons there for when there might be.

If given enough money, there's little question that Space Force would seek to achieve dominance over the Solar System.
