I wish you'd read your own links. The machine that measures volatiles on ISS works against a target list of 20 or so compounds. This is an excellent solution as long as your compound of interest is on the list. But when it's not (like when siloxanes turned out to be a big problem for catalyst bed poisoning) then you are entirely dependent on an earth lab.

Here's the Journal of Nutrition saying that five-year stable food adequate for space flight doesn't exist: https://academic.oup.com/jn/article/150/9/2242/5870322. You should write them with the good news that this is trivially solved.

These arguments about "everything is trivial with big enough rockets" remind me a lot of trying to have a discussion with blockchain people. Yes, if you have a warp drive, you can resupply Martian astronauts daily with fresh foods. But maybe let's see it in action before we call it a solved problem.
If your “healthy” diet requires vitamin pills it’s not a healthy diet. Animal diets don’t require you to take pills or do anything weird - the absolute most extreme advice some animal diet people will tell you is that it’s a good idea to eat liver.
> now often deliberately designed and advertised for their ability to cause harm.

I think you are taking a pretty biased reading into the commercials you've referenced. Nearly every example provided in the subthreads is promoting the idea of the car representing performance and aggression, which are standard rhetoric for marketing high-performance/sports vehicles, which tend to be bought by men and tend to be bought by people who modify them for off-road (race track) usage.

There is definitely a fair argument to be made that these advertisements are inappropriate since they show people doing things on public streets which would be illegal if it weren't a closed course, and a fine print disclaimer isn't really sufficient. But to claim that they are /designed/ and advertised for their /ability to cause harm/ is a bit far based on the examples provided.

The reality is that vehicles are definitely categorized and marketed for different purposes and driver personality profiles, and that one of those profiles is definitely a masculine profile, and the mere existence of this is not harmful to non-masculine people which seems to be the argument you are making. There are just as many (actually much more popular) vehicles marketed to non-masculine profiles. In fact, one of the things I like to do with my partner is to discuss whether a commercial was targeted at me or them when we get commercials on Hulu. A lot of the commercials are for cars, despite neither of us looking to buy a car anytime soon.
> I still don't understand how people don't get it.

I've come to believe that it's all political and ideological at this point. There is indeed a contingent of crazy people who don't think COVID is real, believe in wild conspiracy theories about COVID, oppose any preventative measure (be it masking, social distancing or vaccination), etc.

And then there is another, larger contingent of people who believe that if they acknowledge any limitations of the vaccines, the minimal utility of rushing to vaccinate children, etc., they are letting the crazies win.

So now we're stuck in a Twilight Zone where the vaccinated have to be protected from the unvaccinated, vaccinating the group least likely to be affected by COVID is promoted as the latest key to ending the pandemic, "natural immunity" has gone from being accepted as basic science to treated like pseudoscience, and everybody who is vaccinated will probably be pressured to boost every 6 months no matter how much protection they continue to be told they have against hospitalization and death.
Space debris is a much worse problem in LEO than anywhere else from here to Mars. Mars’ surface itself at likely landing sites is shielded from all micrometeorites by the atmosphere which burns them up or slows them down to a reasonable terminal velocity (low for micrometeorites, even in the thin Martian atmosphere).
Do you use a VPN? I wonder if github track previous login geo-locations, and denies thing based of that? Good luck.
No, we don't have a design team, we're too small for that.

Just that our backend is already built using Django many many years ago. If I need to add some interactivity, I use jQuery currently. Looked into Vue and it allows us to keep everything as is in the backend and use it like jQuery.

I shudder everytime I need to install npm, webpack, gulp, etc..all the JS tools feel super flaky, unnecessary and does not inspire confidence in the tooling. That's my take anyways.

Lot of developers don't have the priviledge of starting a new project. It's an existing doctors appointment website or some shit people cobbled up in PHP in 2004 that is still running and we need to maintain it.
Cloudflare will regret not having a developer go-to framework for their advanced Worker stuff one day.

I think they are waiting for someone else to build for it which is IMO the completely wrong approach for the dream of the serverless app. You got to own the full stack including software.

I can easily see Vercel becoming the pretty much only go-to in this space just from the developer trust they have created with Next (and now Svelte). The general getting started experience between the two serverless providers is night and day.

One is where do I begin / how should I do this (cloudflare).

The other is simply code... and... go! (vercel)

I'll be all in on whatever Rich makes there. Been waiting for a solid Cloudflare Worker framework for literally years bridging front-end and back-end. Instead, we got Pages (which is cool, just boring for the fun stuff).

Thanks for the reply, FarhadG! I do see how you are applying the term. I get it :) I suppose my reply was a bit pedantic (taking the term "genius" literally) but I do have another thought: I think the word 'ingenious' is a better fit. Check it out:

ingenious : having or showing an unusual aptitude for discovering, inventing, or contriving an ingenious detective. 2 : marked by originality, resourcefulness, and cleverness in conception or execution an ingenious contraption.

At any rate, I loved the article and I got your point, and I think at the end of the day that's all that matters. I take pride in having people take the time to dissect my writing, it means they read it and that they cared enough to analyze it even if it was just enough to call me a moron, which has happened on occasion!

> and I do not plan on getting vaccinated again for covid.

Look at the graphs of covid deaths overlayed over infections in time per country.

You will clearly see the two waves and now the third with deaths tracing up for each.

Now in countries with high % vaccinations there is barely a bump in deaths. Then look at russia or romania, their deaths are tracking first and second wave pattern.

I dunno how one can make case vaccines have no effect.

Covid might be staying and it sucks, but so far its much more dangerous than flu, I will be vaccinating myself for it as it looks like the best bet.

Lockdowns are probably not going to happen as EVERY single country would have to introduce them and that kind of global coordination is a pipe dream.
They may have thought that would happen but I saw just as much stuff end up in C:\Windows or \Users or (always my favorite) those “Documents” that are really just “whatever random crap every app wants to put there”.

> But if you need to really leverage the specific platforms, it’s hard to do that.

Not my experience. I have a production app for web, ios, and android, with desktop platforms coming.

You can swap out anything per platform and write any extension for any native functionality you don't have, but the std and community extensions are plentiful.

RN sucks for "web pages", great for apps. In fact sometimes I embed web pages inside my RN apps. (surveys, etc.)

I haven't heard a single good argument of why it doesn't work. If you were going to write a native app you can write a native extension and share the common parts in JS.

RN is not Cordova, it's not a black box, it's very flexible and extensible.

-- @Jcampuzano2 because of post limit --

Earlier yes there's some fickleness with the toolchain, I don't really have issues now, it's fine unless you're on bleeding edge versions or old versions. Performance issues usually relate to the JS bridge, JSI will alleviate that, most devs won't experience an issue. I don't know why others struggle with RN, it works well for me. Flutter is a no go because it emulates native, it's not true native. You can feel the difference on iOS and the web part sucks so hard.

Right, so the first step in this process is to think through the problem until you have a path to a solution in your mind, before you start coding and explaining. But the job interview process we're talking about explicitly asks you to start talking aloud about your thought process (and be judged on it!) with essentially zero time to think it through first.

I code as part of the process of thinking things through. Seeing how bits will fit together. It's like how an author writes to organize their thoughts, instead of the other way around. How ridiculous would it be to interview an author based on their ability to write a short article on a whiteboard in real-time, while talking through their writing process!
There is a big difference between passing a law that requires people to wear a seatbelt and integrating an electronic device that prevents your car from operating normally when it 'detects' the presence of alcohol.

Edit: In addition, detecting the level of alcohol is a much more difficult and non-straightforward problem then checking if a seatbelt is plugged in. With a seatbelt you can have a simple circuit that gets completed when you plug the metal into the socket. But how will a breathalyzer work? Can it tell that I the driver am sober when my passenger(s) are heavily intoxicated? If there isn't a tube I have to blow into, I assume it passively scans the cabin air?

I vaguely remember a push to install a part into cars that prevented you from driving if the seatbelt was not fastened. It caused a lot of problems and now we just have a warning light and a pestering beep instead.

Yes, they actually started well before Sept 4, 1998. Even their first angel round (August 1, 1998) predates that incorporation date. Various people told me that they didn't need the A round but wanted to get the angel notes off the books, but that might be a backsplanation.

Stanford had functioned as an incubator, and the project had received government (NSF) funding. Indeed the Page Brin page-rank patent was assigned to Stanford. It was filed Jan 8, 1998 with priority to 1997-01-10. Stanford paid for that and Stanford legal was going to defend it.

> A recent study found that vaccinated people infected with the delta variant are 63 per cent less likely to infect people who are unvaccinated.

> What is important to realise, de Gier says, is that the full effect of vaccines on reducing transmission is even higher than 63 per cent, because most vaccinated people don’t become infected in the first place.

It's not perfect, but it's not nothing either.
I bought an iPad for other reasons (I like the apple ecosystem in general). And I really liked the notability app. Being able to take hand written notes and have them be indexable is fantastic. I'm sure there are other ways to do it but that's the one I've settled on.
"Before there was climate denial, there was cancer denial."

Cancer is just a risk. Having a job an earning money will always outweigh that risk. People will put up with a lot of crummy environment to put food on the table.
Yeah, a smartphone based deadman is not great for the reasons listed. Ideally you would have key escrow running in a few places ala Shamir and then already have the data widely distributed (bittorrent, ipfs) but encrypted.

You can still handle check-in via device but you need a 2nd factor of something only you know, with false values that will trigger a dispersal.
Lowtax Has Passed Away
Some important points from the article:

> "The study was an observational one, not a clinical trial. It does not prove that eating an anti-inflammatory diet prevents brain aging and dementia, it only shows an association. An additional limitation is the short follow-up time of three years. Longer studies are needed to confirm and replicate these findings."

So it's more an indication than anything else. The actual concept proposed in the paper is:

> "Aging is characterized by a functional shift of the immune system towards a proinflammatory phenotype. This derangement has been associated with cognitive decline and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of dementia. Diet can modulate systemic inflammation; thus, it may be a valuable tool to counteract the associated risks for cognitive impairment and dementia."

So, they seem to be saying inflammation - an immune system response - becomes deranged during aging - so diets that reduce inflammatory responses or their effects might be helpful in countering dementia, as nerve cells are susceptible to inflammatory damage. Sounds plausible, but needs testing.
Yes, which leads to the other end of the cycle. They are removing obsolete words for the same reason.

Fair point. But by that same logic we need rob throw out your examples as well since they are the most prevalent plant allergens. Even then, they are generally affecting less than 1% of the population.

Switching a population to a ruminant-based diet is currently a privilege that is not generalizable under the current food system. (Which is why I specifically chose cow milk as the comparison as a calorie/protein source).

Maybe, at least that era of Core 2 Duo thinkpads supported 8G of RAM...

I was in a similar boat until last year when I switched from a modded x61s to an x220 i7 then x230 i7 w/16GB which I'm still using and cost under $300 on ebay. The HD4000 iGPU is at least Vulkan capable.

It's really unfortunate the imx8 SoC didn't have even an 8GB variant. The fact that you can get a raspberry pi with more memory than the Reform is such a bummer.
While these are great concepts, I find it to be an overcomplication for my needs. When we build systems of any kind it's nice to imagine the ways in which they make our lives easier, and we always underestimate the required maintenance of our systems and the ways in which they come to constrain our thinking and action.

I have a pretty simple organizational structure for information: I keep text files on ongoing projects and ideas. I think on ones that are on the back burner and update my notes on them when I have something compelling come to mind, and the forefront ones or ones that are related to maintenance I keep accessible, usually on my desktop or always open in my text editor. It's a bit of a disorganized system but it is just the right level of complexity. I'm the kind of person who knows which pair of pants on the floor that I left my wallet under last night and so a good portion of organization exists in my head and I work better that way. I'm always on the lookout for new organizational tools, but a huge criteria for them is that they require little to no overhead or maintenance.

I do rely on online search a little too much, I often forget to store information I find and might need later and instead store my google-fu queries in my head, and because of that often times I cannot find it again later (because online search as a tool is degrading as we speak) and this article is a good reminder that I cannot rely on external tools like that that I have no say in them continuing to work the same way.
A lot of this is personal aesthetics, for sure. Personally, I am not a big fan of camel casing. In code, I only use it for class names, generally. I don't find it particularly readable, and for filenames, not all filesystems are case sensitive, so best not to rely on case to differentiate files. Camel case does have the nice property of being more compact, as no character is required. That's its main benefit.

R traditionally uses the . as a legal character in identifiers. Once you get it used to not being syntactic, I found I actually prefer them to underscores.

Part of the issue is that the so-called "Standard American Diet" is so bad in the first place that any deviation from it can produce encouraging results.

I tend to agree, however, that a Mediterrean-patterned diet is definitely in the right direction based upon the weight of nutrition literature.
Another inconvenience with this approach is that you can keep thousands of paths in memory no problem. But thousands of FDs may cause you to exceed per-process limits.
