I remove myself from data broker websites as a hobby, and I don't find it futile at all. They haven't repopulated my data whatsoever, and they actually take GPDR/CCPA threats pretty seriously. (Sometimes you do need to email the executives directly- fun fact, you can just look them up on other data broker sites!) I've removed myself from every one, for free, with a minimal time commitment.

Because Spotify, and the music industry in general relies heavily on "pyramid-based meritocracy", and because a lot of success is gamed by black hats, A lot of artists on the platform resort to paying for services and advertising, which also must be considered in comparison to profit.

A lot of artists need to emulate success and fandom in order to break into paid work, and that creates a toxic situation where they need to pay up front (for various other things like SEO, interviews, artificial promotion, awards, and even for spots in gigs to get to a success point) before any real success is achieved, or they need to spend many years in unpaid (and very defeating) obscurity before finding out whether they succeed or not.

Statistics really don't apply to everyone on a consistent basis, and a lot of numbers in the mix are totally calculated in "mysterious ways" on purpose.

I focus on licensing rather than streams, that way there is more of a (tangible) contractual negotiation involved.

$4 in fees on $1000 over 6 weeks is an effective APR of around 4% - pretty good. $4 in fees on $35 over 6 weeks is an outrageous APR of around 123%. I'm guessing Zip is hoping most people are closer to the latter than the former. I wonder what kind of cut Microsoft is getting.

I wonder if, in the future, a significant portion of the population will have a full time job playing one of these crypto games. They'll be paid based on their in-game social achievements, which will include things like "cares for the (virtual) environment", "demonstrates commitment to diversity", "encourages others to follow health mandates", "uses de-escalation techniques in conflicts." New mission types and achievements can be added dynamically by the local, state, and federal governments, to adapt rapidly to the current political environment. In order to receive your monthly housing and food credit stipend, you must regularly complete these activities.

There will be no need for traditional work for many people, as every person will have access to the game world through their mobile device and biometric signin.

Probably once ZGC gets the generation support (https://github.com/openjdk/zgc/tree/zgc_generational) which will reduce the memory footprint.
There are a couple solutions to this. The simplest one could be for the government to publish a known public-key. Vote-data would be encrypted with the public key which only the election board has the private key to decrypt. This would ensure that no citizen could vote twice, each vote could be tracked to where, when, who, but not _what_, except by the election board.
I agree. I am also concerned about the way surbanism, and sprawl is conflated with being "eco-friendly", when it's the exact opposite: much more per-capita waste associated with suburban living then ultra-dense urban space.
ORM is that one layer that fails to abstract anything substantial yet whose existence is intrusive enough to annoy people.

The worst example of leaky abstraction.

I used to think these were dumb gadgets. My dentist kept telling me, without asking if I was using one, that I should get one.

One day I decided to give it a try. A few months later, for my next visit, he didn't bring it up.

My conclusion was that he could genuinely tell, when cleaning my teeth that I had been using one. Therefore they must really be better at cleaning. I stuck to it and can't complain.

> Addiction is NOT a choice

Drinking alcohol is a choice, so is sticking the needle in your arm.

> likely not from you

I support programs for treatment for addicts. Successful treatment, however, involves the addicts accepting responsibility. Nobody ever said recovery is easy. It isn't. Compassion is in order to help them recover.

But ultimately it's still up to them to make the choice.
Seems that's right, however according to this - https://www.finder.com/ca/internet-tv/cravetv you need to pay $19.98/mo + tax for Crave + HBO. There is no stand-alone HBO package in Canada, because of the Bell contract. Admittedly it's not much cheaper in the U.S and also owned by a large conglomerate.
Most of the current top comments are missing the "easy stuff":

1. Most importantly, focus on good sleep and don't moralize about when that sleep happens. Waking up early is not a virtue. Going to bed late is not a vice. The only bad thing is not getting sufficient sleep. Everyone is different. If waking up early is hard for you, then maybe... don't! This is especially true in grad school!

2. Cut out substances (especially ethanol, THC, caffeine, and any excessive sugar). You can add these back slowly, one at a time, once your sleep patterns normalize.

3. Get at least some exercise every day; even on "rest days" at least go for a decent walk or do some abs/yoga/etc.

Credit "locks" are kind of a scam. You definitely want to put a 1 year fraud alert on your credit report where a lender is supposed to call the number you include to verify that you applied for credit. You can also freeze your credit if you have no plans to apply for any credit cards or a mortgage in the immediate future.

Get the fraud alert on Chex, too. They're the equivalent of the credit rating agencies for bank accounts. If you don't need to switch banks soon, I'd definitely freeze that one.

Depends on the animals.

My cows are fed exclusively grass, right to finishing.

My pigs and chickens are fed mixes of locally-sourced corn, oats, barley, peas, and lentils from organic growers. And they supplement with grasses and broadleafs because we raise 'em on pasture.

Well-raised, environmentally reasonably-fed animals cost lots of money.

Meat is basically the healthiest thing people can eat.

If you just take the pasture-raised cows alone, the grass grows itself and large herbivores are a natural part of the environment here--the environment and its polyculture would be harmed by their removal.
I think the lightest device with a M1 that you can buy now is the 11” iPad Pro. It weighs about half a kilogram and has a volume of about a quarter of a liter.

Weight-wise, that’s about what the HoloLens weighs. Volume-wise, I can’t find numbers for HoloLens 2, but I guesstimate it’s similar, too.

So, yes, it seems they can fit an M1 into a headset, but I expect it will be a bit bulky. I think Apple would want to have something less bulky.

Hopefully soon. The problem, I as understood it, was that there was some ingredient in the Impossible Burger that wasn't approved in the EU, and Impossible hadn't done the necessary paperwork to get it approved. But now, in theory, there shouldn't be anything stopping the UK from allowing them.

> When in doubt, get a blood test.

Definitely. I would say get one regularly anyway, Vitamin D levels are important enough that they should be part of routine blood work done during a regular physical. Then, if you're supplementing, you can adjust your dosage accordingly based on the results so your blood levels stay in the desired range.
Almost a third of US adults believe there would be less crime if more people owned guns. However, multiple studies show that where people have easy access to firearms, gun-related deaths tend to be more frequent

This is frustrating because it dangles the question 'is there less crime where there is very high gun ownership' but then follows with the answer to a different question, 'do more guns lead to more gun deaths'.

What would be helpful is a comparison of US's crime levels in the presence of high gun ownership with all other countries. From there we could add on other mitigating factors to compare.

Also, comparing gun violence with gun ownership is still just examining a single facet. I'd like to see mass-shootings compared with non-gun mass murders. I'd like to see guns deaths compared with other weapons.

It is on the table I could become anti-gun. The pro-gun movement is nearly obnoxious enough to drive me there on it's own. However, I need certain info, if I'm going to take an anti-gun position with conviction.

I've been a huge fan of Slonik, https://github.com/gajus/slonik, which makes it easy and safe to write direct SQL queries.

Is writing SQL query templates too much?

The only valid advantage of ORM is to prevent SQL injection, which can be solved with prepared statement.
I am glad they posted. I'd rather spend my time not removing myself from these sites as I have other things I'd rather be doing.
Admittedly it's a worst case scenario, but the broader point still holds even with a foreach. You are still picking out each item individually instead of operating on the collection which is what you intend to do. You write "do this for every apple: peel it", instead of "peel the apples".
Still no. My guess is that they have hit regulatory issues in coming to Europe. Food standards are generally much higher here (including UK having still essentially the same EU regs), and while I doubt Impossible are doing anything bad, I suspect they are doing things different enough that it's hard to "prove" to regulators.

While I'd love to be buying Impossible's products, I'm generally glad for the high standards.
This is a very important point. Many customer service agents will let people in if they just say “I dunno I just kinda mashed the keypad” or “oh it was just some random letters”.

Once you beef up your security, social engineering is the weak link that always remains.
Somehow this reminds me of Polar codes (used in the 5G control protocol), the first code to provably approach the Shannon limit (iiuc). It works by turning a physical channel into N virtual channels, and it uses the polar coding algorithm to increase the noisiness of some virtual channels, while decreasing the noisiness of others. So you need to pick which virtual channels to listen to, depending on the noisiness characteristics of the environment. And it kind of uses a simple recursive strategy to generate these codes as a simple mixture of inputs.

If I understand correctly, this approach is kind of using a recursive checksum-like system to use local bits to verify the integrity of the code globally?

Hmm for some reason the webpage loaded as a blank page first time. "Guess no good news"

RCP 8.5 was never expected to happen. It was a prediction based the entire world doing nothing at all, banning things like green tech, and increasing fossil fuel use AND even the introduction of new techs to increase the amount of available fossil fuel reserves. Afterall we only have ~50 years left anyway. To get to 8.5 we would need to expand upon this significantly.

RCP 7 was kind of status quo, which isn't even possible because Tesla is worth a trillion $.

RCP 6 is we kind of half-assed it and we never properly reduce anything, no new techs etc. This one is possible but given political climate I see this as practically impossible.

RCP 4.5 is highly likely. We have until 2045 or so until we peak. I see this happening, China has many coal power plants in construction right now. They wont be reducing. Much of the world wont be. Though around this 2045 date is when fossil fuels start increasing in price quite significantly just because of supply/demand. The cost to go non-fossil fuel will simply make more sense before this. So those coal plants in construction now, mainly by china, will be getting shut off then. The rise in temps will be roughly 2 celcius and that's completely manageable by our society. Especially given decades to respond. There are arguments that features like greenification is actually a good thing and not a bad thing. Therefore 4.5 is actually unlikely.

RCP 3.4 is where it's all at. It's literally the line we are tracking already with everything we have done. It's slightly less than 2 celcius in increase. There's no major need to declare war on china and blow up their fossil fuel operations.
> Sunlight really is the best though

The problem is that, for many people, their ability to synthesize Vitamin D from sunlight decreases as they age. (Also you have to be living at a latitude where you can get enough UV from sunlight.) Having your blood levels of Vitamin D checked regularly can help you to decide whether you need supplementation, and if you do, it can help you to adjust your dosage.

Beyond Meat do burgers that are particularly close to the real thing. Bleeds correctly, burns slightly in the right way. My main issue is not the taste experience, but that the thing is probably quite processed. For instance there's a lot of salt. If the thing is a really good reproduction of a burger, might it also be just as unhealthy? Waiting to see while I enjoy having one now and again.

I'm also trying to be as vegan as possible, but mainly for health reasons. Though after starting that, I now also think there's ethical reasons. Funny how that works.
This seems like it's somehow both a pyramid scheme and a Ponzi scheme.

ORM has escape hatch so you can write SQL for the complex queries (and hopefully don't open yourself to SQL injection along the process) and still benefit from ORM for the simple to moderate case.

> So in SQL you can query data from several joined tables

Can do that in your ORM too.

> query only certain columns

So far no issue with ORM

Oh but in J loops exist, they are mostly implicit in the operation.

So it is not “loopless” per se, as the sigma notation for summation indicates a loop in a single construct, and it “can be written away” using Einstein’s notation.

That is how it should be understood, imo.
I use them for the really simple stuff, where I basically know what the query to be generated is. What I don’t understand though, what is wrong with writing a sprocket or sql function and invoking it as a method from your oo layer? That gets to 98% of my usage and it’s fine.
Are you talking about the pseudo code or the readable sentences? I hope my point comes across even if there's some linguistic nuance I'm missing.

The amount of feed crop acreage needed to produce a beef burger is much greater than the crop acreage needed to produce an Impossible burger, so the Impossible burger reduces the number of those habitats that are being destroyed. (I'm using "feed crop" loosely to include hay - even 100% grass-fed cattle can't just be pastured year-round in most areas, and cutting hay is just as bad as harvesting feed crops for any smaller animals that've made their homes in the fields.)
the answer is so obvious though... It beggars belief that people can't see it.
