This is the most frustrating thing about the current situation. We finally juiced the economy in a way that we've created a supply side constraint for the first time since at least 2000! People finally feel free to quit their jobs and demand higher wages! Of course, if you're a media company owner who's friends with other billionaires, you don't like this. So all of the coverage has been almost exclusively negative. Biden isn't helping himself by appearing to do nothing, but there's a lot of upside here.

I've had this in my AutoHotkey file for a long time now:

; Type in the clipboard
^!v::
MyClip = %clipboard%
StringReplace, MyClip, MyClip, `r, , All
SendRaw %MyClip%
return

So I can hit Ctrl-Alt-V and have it type in whatever's in my clipboard. I use it to scrub the text and deal with stupid sites and forms that don't allow paste. I also have a variant that adds a Sleep so I can do the same thing when something like RDP takes control.
Refugee is not synonymous with immigrant.

The US has admitted more than 1.2 million refugees (I believe the number is closer to 3 million), this chart only counts refugees under UNHCR mandate.
By soil you mean cocoa right?

Awesome. What category would encompass both of those?
It's a mistake to just think of linear algebra as being super concrete. Linear algebra can be very theoretical. Obviously, there are a lot of categorical applications to linear algebra as well.
You're right, I wasn't making a point about the author, just how the comment I was replying to didn't make sense given the context. I might have replied to the wrong comment. There was one which was saying something to the effect of "you would know what it means if you can understand the article".

My core point is you can know what Quantitative Easing is while still not immediately recognizing QE as its abbreviation. For example, I thought this was going to be about some sort of Qsomething Equity, since I've seen PE to mean Private Equity.
A lot of states have capped those rates relative to prime.
I fail to see the difference between these two abstractions. Is modeling, as you put it, not drawing something out from a whole? I think if abstraction meant different things in different contexts, the definition would be to blame.
Regular expenses are generally not burdened by cash flow. You get your regular expenses at the 'end of the month' as a matter of process, not because the company is waiting for customers to pay for stuff, so they can pay you.

As an employee, you're not there to provide working capital for your company, so if you're buying something really that the company should be paying for, they should be able to pay for it immediately.

If not (or not all of it), why do you want to pay a cut of your salary/income to the utilities company?

Having spent the last weekend trying to explain the arcane rules of 1Password to my mother, I can completely relate to this post. When things are overly complicated people start to work around them ... store master passwords and other codes in local files because it is a giant pain to enter them.

Corporate level password security should not be enforced on individual users who don't have IT support to keep their systems working cleanly.
"Sysadmin"? Is that still a thing? I thought we'd moved onto DevOps and SRE and Platform Engineer now.
Your assumption is correct, and your cautiousness is warranted. I do expect the polynomial complexity to become better with future improvements in algorithms. Either way, it is on us fanboys to make devices that fulfill these claims.
Conversely, the outward flow of Okanagan wine products will be sharply affected. For example, the market for Okanagan ice wine in Asia is huge. Also, when the Lower Mainland growing season is done, the produce shipped from Chile and Peru comes into Vancouver's ports and goes out across western Canada and the North.
Rates are set by a market.

I’m not the parent but I have some thoughts on this.

I’m of the opinion that tokens when applied to digital art typically aren’t providing much value, aside from say bragging rights / social status since digital art can be copied and viewed without owning the token. One might argue that these tokens help pay artists but 1) if that’s all one cares about then donating to them directly will give them more money since transaction fees are cheaper and 2), I haven’t looked into this directly, but it would seem token resale fees given to artists are not enforceable since they could be worked around by having a holding contract that gets traded instead. It just doesn’t seem like digital art tokens are providing much value. Now if they start to be used in some enforceable way such as in a DRMd display then this would be a form of underlying value but why not use a non DRMd display? If it’s anything like movies and music then the answer probably revolves around convenience and risk.

Then there is the more general trend of treating tokens like these as investments where the value gets driven up and, appears to me, detached from any sense of underlying value. So the only way for the sale value of these tokens to hold is to have some one else willing to buy it. But if there is no underlying value then it’s not clear to me how this can continue indefinitely.

But if a token is providing some underlying value like when it is exchangeable for a service or currency and the token’s value is close to it’s underlying value then I don’t think they are scams or at least less likely to be so.

What are your thoughts on this yrral?

For context: I was initially quite interested in the whole distributed ledger stuff from a technical perspective but stopped keeping up with it for the past couple of years or so.
> Sulfuric acid or nitric acid would have a more favorable effect on the nutrient profile, but they're more and much more dangerous respectively.

Sulfuric acid is not really that dangerous unless you are getting the high test stuff from a chemical supplier. You can use battery acid refill solution, it's just deionized water and H2SO4 at around 30% concentration. That's mild enough that it won't cause any immediate burns, but you should still wear gloves and goggles when handling it.

There's no need for nitric acid, since you are already supplying nitrate ions.
>Wrote professionally about taste in a previous life. It is related more closely than we expect to techne or competence from physical knowledge.

Closer than we expect? Huh? Competence and skill are the two most common concepts associated with taste, ask any person who hates contemporary art.

> It's whether something legitimately represents power. Taste may be an instinct for honest signals, which would seem like its own sort of intelligence.

I understand that nowadays everything in humanities has to be about power to be fashionable, but that sounds like quite a reach. I don’t really follow this logic on crassness.

If this is attention seeking though, it should probably have large warnings not to actually use it.
Sure, say I had $1M in the bank in 1996, it would yield ~$70K which would provide a comfortable living situation both then and today. Inflation was around 2-3%, which is generally the target.

>lose value to inflation

Inflation always erodes money of course, so there was never a time when that didn't happen when there was inflation.
What a let-down.
A great book about the prodigiousness of Max Martin and other Swedish producers: "The Song Machine: Inside the Hit Factory". Lots of industry tales about artist who did and didn't take the advice of their producers. Kelly Clarkson, for example, stopped taking Max Martin's advice after her breakout album and slowly declined with fewer recognizable hits.

The theme: Hits can't be planned or predicted. It's a numbers game where you keep trying to make a large number of them and eventually something breaks through.
Upvoted. Writing this here as I would give the same advice.
Which is something that can be fixed instantly: simply stop showing download counts on NPM.

Seems a bit FUDy

Author says:

Using language that could not be more clear, she effectively calls virtually all existing DeFi projects illegal.

Then goes on to quote:

For example, a variety of DeFi participants, activities, and assets fall within the SEC’s jurisdiction as they involve securities and securities-related conduct

So in what world is "a variety" = virtually all?
If there were no other options besides asset stimulus and doing nothing, I may agree with you. But we can do other things (like UBI) that improve equality of opportunity, provide a safety net, and are probably net positive to the overall value of the economy in the long run (compared to the modern bailout/asset inflation economy, anyway).
Hi,

Thanks for the comment. We have just undergone a full security audit as of 2 weeks ago - any infrastructure or code vulnerabilities are currently being worked on.

Many JavaScript projects contain huge dependency trees - it is unfortunately the nature of a 3rd party module-heavy ecosystem, and can be hard to tame the sheer size of the tree. We will update or pin dependencies as needed, to solve the security issues being reported by NPM.

I should also mention that since budibase is self-hostable, it can be run inside all of your existing infrastructure and network - providing additional layers of security that you can control.

Appreciate the feedback, and the information regarding transitive dependencies - interesting article.

No, the reason everyone salivated over and jumped on any ridiculous claim was that Trump was threatning to upset (and then starting to upset) the apple cart the deep state had been constructing and profiting from for decades.

> Even SPF and DKIM with DMARC probably won't be enough to get over the blacklist rating.

I can confirm this. I recently tried to set up being able to send emails from an smtp server in my homelab to my gmail address. Even with all the good stuff - a domain, tls, spf, dkim, dmarc, gmail just straight up refuses to receive mail from residential IPs. I ended up proxying it through my VPS, which works better but still requires me setting up gmail rules to NEVER send messages from my special domain to spam. Which it would otherwise do for no apparent reason sometimes.
I can not have any sympathy for Gnome as long as it keeps breaking extensions and any other form of customization.

Pure Gnome is not great for me. Gnome could be, but if any fix I apply will inevitably break, it simply isn't something I want to spend time on.

I am very interested in something like Material Shell (1) or PaperWM (2) both inspired by 10gui (3), but if the Gnome foundation layer will keep shaking anything above itself, I just do not want to bother with it.

Appalachia was particularly favored amongst the Scots-Irish. Good point on the term "refugee". For the most part, they were certainly very poor, but I've never read Albion' Seed before. I have read a book that is considered an update on it, called Eleven Nations by Colin Woodward.

I am curious as to what percentage were out of Ulster vs. from the borderlands.
Oh, I don't care if they do and never said they shouldn't, I just think someone should make a FOS version.

How dare someone want to use something free and open source, that's developed by a vast community of individuals instead of relying on 1 individual (who might disappear at a moment's notice) for every single update and bug fix. Tstst.

See, I can be snarky too
Impressive work! I had a couple of questions.

- How do you find the best concentration for each nutrients for a given plant? I usually just make general-purpose mix with General Hydro but I see that your calculator includes some presets for specific plants.

- I see that your board includes pH and EC probes. I always wanted those in my setup but I've read that they tend to degrade fast. In your experience is that true?

- Where did you get the potassium nitrate? I always wanted to make my own mix but I've heard that buying large amounts online will put you on a list as it's a strong oxidizer (you can make explosives with it).
I wouldn’t say that people are entitled to a safe investment option that offers a decent yield, but on the other hand I’m also skeptical of more than a decade of what was supposed to be extraordinary intervention.
Why 433 and 1121? In classical computers, everyone knows why a lot of things are done in powers of 2. Is there a different base number useful for quantum computation that I don't know about (for example, is this an integer multiple of a specific sin/cos value)?
Men are not invincible robots. They get sick, they quit. They may even gasp like to take paternity leave.

If your organziation isn't shitty, so you can handle a woman taking maternity leave, you also won't get fucked by people getting sick, and can offer paternity leave and sabbatical options to help you attract employees which, newsflash, has recently become rather difficult.
Not going to keep responding to someone who is skeptical of the claim that life for the average person is better in 2019 than it was in 1919. Our starting points are so off that I don't think we could have a productive conversation.

Hi,

Our app metadata is stored as JSON documents in CouchDB, but entire apps can be exported to .txt files that can be imported into budibase also. Our templates work through this method.

We do not currently support git based versioning, although it's certainly something we could support in future, given the fact an entire app can be represented in a .txt file.
Have we seriously not already had a major VPN leak? We must have had one by now, right?

I vaguely feel like more of these cards should already be blue? But maybe I'm just quibbling over what "major" means or how long in the past we should go to look.

Regardless, fun project, I like the idea a lot. I'll also add my vote alongside other commentors that I'd love to be able to use names as seeds.

> Servers should protect themselves from CSRF, it shouldn't be the job of browsers to do that.

You mean that servers are the ones supposed to protect themselves from 3rd parties commandeering the browser to act like the browser acts when you are using it?

I fail to see how that's the correct way to solve the problem. Doing it on the server just ensures that you'll get an ever growing pile of hacks and never really solve the problem.
Quantum Computers sitting in their cryogenic chambers are such works of art, stacks of giant brass plates and hundreds of heat pipes (or coolant pipes? liquid helium I suppose) twisted and coiling throughout the structure hanging like some steampunk chandelier (why do they hang from above anyway?)

The esoteric design reminds me of the Connection Machine blog posted the other day, "to communicate to people that this was the first of a new generation of computers, unlike any machine they had seen before." [3]

I'm curious what they do with these prototypes once they are obsoleted in a matter of months, are the parts so expensive they tear it down to reuse them? Or will the machines be able to go on tour and stand in glass cases to intrigue the next generation of engineers? I know it had a tremendous effect on me to stand in front of a hand-wired lisp machine at the MIT museum.

For me, the name 'Eagle' reminds me of the book "Soul of a New Machine" by Tracy Kidder. That book is about the design and bring-up of another new (at the time) computer system, the Data General MV/8000, which was also code-named Eagle.

I wish IBM great success with their work.

edit: Clarified that the MV/8000 project was also code-named Eagle.
There are probably entities saving encrypted data right now for when that day arrives. Brings up many interesting lines of thought beyond "is it breakable right now?"
That'd be a cool longer-term goal :D Right now it's all manual to allow for changing the cards month-to-month.
One could still have a mortgage. Depending on the interest rate, it might not make sense to pay it off faster than the term length.
Why does Covid-19 make things smell disgusting?
This is 100% correct, however for the person with less money they are going to be spending a much larger percentage of their funds each month than the richer one. So in reality the richer person will accelerate ahead and the ratio will get worse for the poor person every year.
Didn't even come down the street!
Not really.

The fact of the matter is, most of these projects came along for justifiable reasons, and represent some improvements over the existing tech: speed, ease of configuration, better dev experience, better use of platform features, and so on. I'll certainly grant that there's an aspect of chasing the new shiny here, but among the senior FE folks I know, the costs of migration are always being weighed against the actual benefits you get.

Additionally, the cost of adoption/migration is very often a high-priority concern by the people writing these libraries. The pendulum is swinging back from configuration to convention.

With regards to the pace: it mainly has to do with the fact that the Web-as-application-platform has only come into its own in the past 10-15 years or so (i.e. since the death of Flash.) The tooling is just now catching up. Another HUGE factor is the growing adoption of TypeScript- for the past several years, TypeScript tooling and existing JS build/bundle systems have gradually adapted to each other, which has driven change. (Trust me: trying to figure out how to set up TypeScript compilation under webpack was confusing and miserable for a long time.)

If you're just glancing into front-end OSS every once in awhile, or if you're not heavily using the features available in these tools, you might not notice or value these improvements. And that's perfectly OK- you can certainly continue to use whatever's comfortable for you. But there's more here than meets the eye.
This obscure FDA document prepared by the FDA itself for the 2015 hearing says that for UITs, Sinusitis and Bronchitis, the three most common things docs give FQs for, work no better than placebos.

This document also gives the damage caused by FQs the name Fluoroquinolone-Associated Disability or FQAD.

The EU equivalent of the FDA says FQs should be removed from the market due to their devastating side effects.
