Same here in Switzerland. And other than working on actual modern PHP these jobs are usually maintaining old software with weird custom scripting languages like typoscript xsml ...

I'd consider a PHP job, but only if they quarantee they don't have any of those legacy maintaining things lying around.
> virtually every other person is radioactive to you.

While you're not wrong, this behaviour is already present - just randomly distributed. Some/many people withdraw, interact with fear, maybe eventually get fed up and take risks, based on guessing-games.

If this research proves fruitful, it will reduce the guesswork a lot, and people can try to find more practical and constructive approaches.
Would this do what you want?

It's a pain for me to say this, but their tech is primitive. I tried to make a company to make this 100x better but didn't find any VC money because the VR ecosystem was poorly funded. Right now I don't know if this is a good or a bad thing, because this parallel universe thing is really frightening to say the least...

It sounds like the kind of thing a technically savvy person might set up as a base install for a non-technically savvy person.
As a relative layperson here, this feels retrospectively obvious, no?

Per my shallow understanding (I only read the introduction to the paper), the marker hFwe-Lose is expressed by cells that are struggling, thus close to death. It's the precursor for apoptsis.

It makes sense to me that COVID affecting lung tissue would cause more apoptsis, thus more hFwe-Lose pushed out either through breath or mucus.

Is the 'news' here the discovery of the marker hFwe-Lose?
OP is correct, you still can develop like this with PHP, and no the ship has not sailed for many.

You can have deployment pipelines etc, but if you like, you can still develop the ancient way - it still works.
You can build almost anything with any language.

I've done shell scripts in PHP. Mobile development in Ruby, JS and haxe. Web development with Go. Nothing is stopping you, and if you know the language it is usually not to weird either.
Australia has had instant, free interbank transfers for years now (PayID) but for some reason I have yet to see a business accept it at PoS and only very rarely for online purchases. The only business that seem to accept it are crypto and stock exchanges, to get your money in fast...
$x = [1,null,'xxxx', collect([])];

gettype($x) is "array". you can annotate a type as being an `array`. How does that help me exactly?
When the average person is starting out, unless their parents are rich and help them, they start from scratch from a material point of view.

That sounds like they're missing a lot :-)
No significant improvements in the last however many years. Yeap, it's a simple service but they constantly fail on the basics such as parsing the complete article.

Over the years I had several instances of widely popular sites not being completely parsed, missing paragraphs or images, to the point where I had to manually check every time I've saved something there. Whereas, on instapaper or safari reader mode, it parsed perfectly. I've submitted several fixes requests for such sites and they "promised they would look into it", nothing happened.

Yeap, I was a paying costumer and a heavy user for over three years, I finally gave up and closed my subscription.
A relative of mine was clearly mentally ill, although was never diagnosed (he would never seek treatment). He hoarded garbage in his house until it was uninhabitable. Finally he ended up begging on the streets, until about a year ago when he passed away partly due to pneumonia.

It was a struggle to watch, and to repeat the same tired conversations with him about seeking help. In this case too, there was nothing that social services could, or would, undertake to help if he didn't ask for it personally.
There are a few other server implementations (polyjuice in Elixir https://gitlab.com/polyjuice/polyjuice_server; https://github.com/clecat/ocaml-matrix in OCaml; the abandoned mxhsd in Java) - but the most stable ones alternatives to Synapse right now are Dendrite (Go) and Conduit (Rust).

Matrix's API surface is big, and servers deliberately handle all the heavy lifting in order to make clients trivial to write, so writing servers is not trivial. But Dendrite & Conduit are both very usable and making good progress right now.

And yes, the APIs are all standardised (while also constantly evolving) as per https://spec.matrix.org :)
I think you didn't get the point .. making crypto the default banking system is paradigm shift and efficient paradigmal application. I gave the facebook example because the economic approach which offers that supply and demand is right tools to decide whats good for humanity is simply not accurate.

I would love to see that stats on that, but it somehow seems like it is more common in the US than in, say, Denmark or the UK even. But then, my perception is primarily from:

1. US TV shows, where it seems like all kinds of drug use is more normalized

2. US 'high-status' culture seeming very odd - this whole thing about people having to always appear positive, high-energy, always busy (partly what I see from US TV shows, partly what my own experience) just doesn't seem sustainable without some sort of drug support.
> I'd consider a PHP job, but only if they quarantee they don't have any of those legacy maintaining things lying around.

I see your point, but there is lots of legacy code (in any language) laying around and making shit tons of money for their owners - hence the need to maintain these systems.
One other mystery not mentioned is the problem of fine tuning. The standard model requires certain parameters (like alpha, the fine structure constant) to have their current values accurate to many orders of magnitude for the universe as we know it to exist. There are two philosophical schools of thought about that -- (a) we're in the universe we're in, so by definition it must exist and there's a selection bias there; or (b) there is an underlying detailed structure that gives the values of supposed 'fundamental' quantities their shape as an emergent property of something more beautiful – and thus they're not "free" at all. This is one of the things that SUSY was supposed to solve – but it's been experimentally found to not really exist by the LHC. A good introduction about this (in the context of the Higgs mass, where the need for fine tuning is really apparent) is here: https://www.physicsmatt.com/blog/2016/11/17/paper-explainer-...
So, I gave my daughter access to the Nintendo Switch.

Games are hard (she is 3),will either get very frustrated or bored.
Otherwise she has fun and it's slowly making progress.

It's really hard to find well-suited videogames. All of them expect you to read.

I do have to pull her away occasionally when SHE doesn't want to be there anymore and it's extra tired/bored. This is thankfully rare and it's usually connected to me neglecting her for the day (harsh truth), so I just try to just make a point of playing with her once throughout the day and it just doesn't happen.
God it's hard though. Some days you are just so drained you want to be braindead but you can't, you have kids!

If you think demand is beside the point and inflation is everything then you'd probably consider exchanging every dollar you have for a deflationary shitcoin.

I’m glad you had a good experience, but IMO the way Audible works is a mess of dark patterns to begin with. If you stop paying for one month you loose all your credits, so when I’m not reading as much I end up in a bind where I can’t cancel, but if I don’t cancel I get deeper in a hole.

You can pause a subscription, but only once every couple years and only for 90 days, and the option is hidden.
I think the person you are replying to is claiming that the hotline operator will initiate the process for involuntary admission, or at least start a chain of events (e.g. calling local PD for a welfare check) that leads to that outcome.

(No idea if that is true, but it is the claim.)
Yes, it's quite obscure. The meeting with the COO that asks for a brain dump and then fire him the morning after is the most troubling.

Did the COO want to get what was on his mind so the company would lose nothing by firing him? Or was he utterly disappointed about said mind?

I really don't understand what any of this has to do with swagger.

Yet it is true you have to find it, and it's not obvious. Many times, what you're good at is what you can do better than others with less effort. But we can't see it because we associate value with effort; if it's easy for me then surely it's worthless?

Well, no. If it's easy for you (and difficult for others) then that's your trade.
Using XML is one of XMPP its biggest strengths. XML is well designed, good documented and has a rich set of supporting libraries. XML documents can be composed of other XML documents in a sound fashion, which is a major feature for an extensible protocol as XMPP is, and XML documents compress well, making them suitable in low-bandwidth conditions (see [XEP-0365](https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0365.html)). I also never experienced a considerable battery drain when autark devices are using XMPP compared to a binary protocol.

> A software engineer at a tech company that doesn't know about commandline flags? That doesn't seem very realistic.

Why not? 95% of most peoples work can be done in an IDE/text editor, and that last 5% is probably very exploratory anyway. I work in games, and gameplay programmers work almost exclusively out of IDEs with GUIs for source control and most other dev tools etc.

> Anyway, this person will learn that dash means -, and not make that mistake again. It's a one-time mistake.

Disagree that it's a one time mistake. On any given day/task there might be 5/10/15 of these. dash, ctrl + r, tab complete, !!, different shells, shebangs, flaky backend services, etc etc. If you want to teach someone how you work then yes this might be appropriate.

> So I think the pairing helps even in this case.

That said, I agree :) It depends though, is your goal to bring two programmers up to speed or is it to crunch through tasks right now? Because pairing helps with one of those goals but not the other
> The electricity of the worlds ATM,s bank branches, trading floors, etc dwarfs the electricity cost of bitcoin.

Even if Bitcoin actually became a valid means of transaction and bank branches, ATMs, etc became obsolete, it doesn’t replace the need for trading floors as an interface between finance and equities/commodities, so that’s a weird comparison.

But even so, I wouldn’t be so confident that the banking sector uses more, or will for long given the current investment spree into mining. Here’s one plant that will use nearly 4x the energy of downtown Dallas:

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/10/31/bitcoin-mining-giants-bitdee...

Mind you, the more the price of Bitcoin goes up, the more energy miners burn on mining, so if Bitcoin actually grew to the size of the fiat economy we’d be talking about substantially more energy use.

That's the gist of it, high pressure electrolysis does not require any fundamental research. Had they developed it seriously, consumer units would be on the market by now.

Unless there are some fundamental problems - but these tend to be systemic, they apply to other ways of making hydrogen.
I'd be interested to know what the market would have paid for this bug. I don't really see why it would be useful to anyone but I am far from an expert.
Regarding censorship, that will continue. Anti money laundering laws for example tend to popular support. If crypto wins out it will have to have a mechanism for blocking or canceling some transactions due to people with guns deciding that.
The rich are also in debt, because the debt is cheap, especially if you're already rich. So inflation benefits the rich not only by increasing the value of their assets but also by wiping out their debt.

This is not true, run playwright/puppeteer with puppeteer-stealth + headful + plugins + fonts + OpenGL fingerprinting workarounds and you’ll still 100% be caught by PerimeterX and Datadome if the site’s sensitivity is set to anything but “Low”.

Talk with berstend (author of puppeteer-extra/stealth), join their Discord or read some of his Github comments and you will quickly get confirmation that none of those methods are good enough in 2021 (even with residential proxies or CGNAT 5G proxies).
How is your 13 year old with the social stuff? As someone who seems to be similar to your son (although I'm much older - and a software developer like you), I would comment that it is having strong social connections that brings purpose to my life, and the degree to which I've been integrated in a social community has correlated strongly with times of my life where I've been happy versus times in my life where I've felt like everything is meaningless.
Nitpick - some of the variations between Swedish and Norwegian is because Swedish and Norwegian ended up with different words from Middle Low German, i.e. the differences stem back from the Hansa period, and not as late as the French relations of the 1700s. So, "fönster", for example, didn't get picked from French, it's from Middle Low German "vinster" (which became "finster, fynster" and then "fönster" in Swedish). In this case the Middle Low German word replaced the older Swedish word (which did have the same origin as the current Danish and Norwegian words for "window"), but that replacement didn't happen in Norwegian/Danish (in other cases one or both did pick up a word from Middle Low German, but it may have been a different word because the traders in Bergen weren't the same ones which operated in Sweden).
Yeah this medication is usually not available in large quantities, so you can't give it to everyone. So any type of marker is going to be very helpful to you because you can target it to those whose outcomes you can improve the most with it.
I just use it in a remote class, with my students. It worked perfectly. Everybody was able to use it in now time. Well done!
1. That shadow force is regulated by the legal system.

2. If the centralized legal system is needed, then what's the point? The immutable crypto ledger say GO, the people with guns say NO. Which one's right?
> And the pronunciation is not always obvious either with French loanwords.

Or the spelling. I mean, I know how the letters are pronounced, so I can see that fåtölj is actually a good transcription, but visually it bears no resemblance whatsoever with fauteuil.

I have found that French words that ended up in English were actually quite difficult to recognise in a conversation, even though they are written exactly as in French most of the time.

I guess it’s related to the great vowel shift (but not only, even consonants are weird), but English really is weird compared to a lot of continental European languages. For example, a /r/ sounds like a /r/ in anything from Spanish to Finnish. Granted, there are differences in prononciation, but it is still not distorted beyond recognition. Nothing that comes close to the utterly bizarre prononciation of the /r/ in /iron/.
Hey, author here! Glad folks are enjoying this.

A few notes:

- I post a _lot_ about tldraw on Twitter. If you're curious about how this came together, or want to follow along as we ship new features, check out my timeline (https://twitter.com/steveruizok).

- The whole tldraw project is MIT licensed and open source (https://github.com/tldraw). And it's still in development! If you'd like to contribute, join the Discord channel (https://discord.gg/SBBEVCA4PG) or drop by the repo (https://github.com/tldraw/tldraw).

- The multiplayer is using a pre-release version of Liveblocks (https://liveblocks.io/)—and honestly isn't using it in a very clever way—and so can have some desync issues. Consider this part of the app an early beta.

- We also ship a Visual Studio Code extension that lets you use tldraw inside of VS Code! (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=tldraw-o...)

A little more about the project itself:

The tldraw project has a few different layers.

At the bottom, there is a renderer named @tldraw/core (https://github.com/tldraw/core) that is essentially a "put React components on a canvas UI" engine. You give it a data model along with a set of utilities to interpret that data model. Simple but very fast, very flexible, and packed with helpers for building these kinds of apps. It's already being used for some pretty ambitious projects apart from tldraw itself.

The main library, @tldraw/tldraw (https://github.com/tldraw/core), exports the whole tldraw "app" as a React component named <Tldraw/>. This component can be embedded in any React project. It can be controlled either by props or by its own API (ie `app.selectAll().duplicate()`).

The website is a very thin Next.js app that embeds the <Tldraw/> component.

There are also a few other libraries: @tldraw/vec for the vector math and @tldraw/intersect for intersections. If you like to work on these kinds of projects, definitely bookmark those libraries! They contain a lot of useful code.

As for its development, I've taken off a few months between jobs to work on this full time. Until now, the site has been accessible only to my Github sponsors, but it's now free and open to everyone. If If you'd like to support the project's continued development, you can sponsor me here: https://github.com/sponsors/steveruizok.

I'll answer questions here but if you want to contact me directly, my DMs are open @steveruizok.
If there is going to be online voting, then at a bare minimum there must be a public anonymous API that can be used with the voters key material to validate their entire voting choices actual choices not counts so that random people at random times can validate that every specific detail they entered was not tampered with, even if this requires semi-technical people to validate, then fraudsters will know there is a risk of being caught. Even one invalid record must trigger an audit by a truly independent third party. Voter keeps a copy of what they submitted along with checksums and cryptographic signatures. Audit logs must be proven immutable with a chain of custody and attestation throughout the entire system. Even admins of the system must not be able to tamper with it even if their life depended on it. Look to vaulting appliances for some mediocre examples on how to start this process. This will need to be a better implementation than the vaulting appliances however and I can not imagine anyone building this for $1.5M.

Whatever is built must be submitted to the public for penetration testing along with a large bug bounty program. Invite the best penetration testers from all around the world and encourage them to use whatever hacking and social engineering methods they can dream up and provide them with full legal immunity and a low bar to entry.
> The ephemeral process nature of the language makes some tasks very difficult to do in a performant way (but there's caching, so that's at least mitigated).

I'd rather say that this is actually one of the biggest selling points for PHP. Opcache and JIT works great, and reduces the overhead, but ironically, PHP is great for serverless applications.
yeah, the type of person that would use this would know Python (or JS), in which case they'd want to use that.

I agree with this in the abstract, but someone's right to self-determination isn't being infringed if 99% of the time they don't want to do something and you stop them from doing it in the 1%.

This is particularly true if they call you during the bad 1% and directly ask you to stop them from doing the thing.

From my perspective, despite inconsistencies it's one of the easier languages to learn at a basic level as you can ramp up and start using a working subset of it pretty quickly. German in comparison has a steep up-front learning curve and requires a lot of investment to get anything out of.
I would love not to use it, but I'm compelled to. It is not only my choice, but the choice of others who are not interested in new languages (assuming that Python is new language...) and prefer to use PHP because they don't know anything else.

So yes, let me express my antipathy toward the PHP language and its ecosystem.

I work not "well". It has hundred of issues that are not, and will never be addressed. Like the inconsistent choice of function names, the antic (if not prehistoric) way of extension managing, the clumsiness of xdebugger, the bugs in the PDO library, etc.

I spend 80% of the time trying to figure out "a hack", and spend too much time on php.net & stackoverflow hunting for the right answer.
Reviewing/analysing data and filtering it are dramatically different tasks. With raw data, most of the heavy lifting is done by your data analysis stack, you don't crunch numbers yourself. Complying with FOIA requests though, is largely manual work.

The FDA has 14,000 employees; its FOIA office has 10, and they go at roughly 80,000 pages per month, meaning each employee does 8,000 pages per month, or roughly 400 per working day per employee, less than a minute per page. That to my non expert opinion sounds pretty fast.

That speed has been appropriate until now that the plaintiffs want 4 months' worth of FDA FOIA work for yesterday.

I agree that there should be a solution for these cases, but it's this particular FOIA request that's the anomaly, not the FDA way of work.
