Bioengineer here able to chime in with niche expertise. Cartilage is and has been a holy grail in biomedical engineering but is very difficult to grow and transplant. There have been some successful neo-cartilage projects but integrating that into a defect and successfully integrating with host cartilage is the problem. The boundary of the defect actually has electronegative components that actively oppose integration of host and transplant (synthetic) cartilage. I think the most likely solution won't be a tissue-engineered transplant but rather an active cellular component that appropriately responds, and builds upon, this negative feedback cycle via cellular programming.
> Which sounds great in practice, but do you know why the military uses those giant golf ball radomes? Its to hide where a satellite is pointing and thus where a satellite is in space. [1]

I'm unconvinced of that. Classified satellites are routinely tracked and sometimes even photographed by amateur astronomers; surely the peer competitors of governments can do better. I suspect these domes are primarily intended to conceal which satellite is being talked to.
It may have been true in 2010, but hasn’t been true in 2018.

I find the idea that we're alone depressing and even more reason to worry about our future. If we're the universe's only shot at recording/appreciating/exploring/colonizing it, and we blow that shot, that seems like an incredible waste.
> these are the very ideas I've been complaining are part of the US's constitutional DNA in this thread, so we'll have to disagree

I think we agree. There is meat between the archetypal framework and the working, practical government. The framework is neutral. But the implementation details are not.

My core point is that more democracy = good is a misreading of American, and in fact world, history. We have a mixed system. Denouncing one system over another for being less democratic is thus a straw man.
There are fewer Walter Whites in this country than you might expect, and the nature of it means fewer still have the resources necessary to do something like that. Probably good news overall since most of them wouldn't pick targets we'd like them to pick.

A lot of smart people don't want to join the police to either condone their behavior or get in confrontations with them, and / or eventually possibly become one of them.
Using newer Excel you also have the power of making custom named functions with LAMBDA() which can also recurse (I think the stack limit is 1024). If you combine this with the idea of columns or rows as iterations of the memory with some of the array functions like MAKEARRAY() and relative position functions like OFFSET() or INDIRECT() you can do pretty much any reasonably sized computation without needing iterative calculation enabled.

The reason being Excel is a tool designed for performing operations on tabular data not designed for general data programming. If you needed programming there was always VBA which was proper so they never wanted to muck it up. LAMBDA made its way in because people wanted reusable function compositions for their tabular data without having to enable the security PITA that is allowing full macros/VBA which can do a lot more than interact with just the data inside the spreadsheet.
Yeah let's drive a light tank into a house without knowing anything. That is smart.

Are we seeing more people on this path where you get tenure (has to be one of the most secure jobs possible) and then launch companies from that foundation? It meshes so well, incredibly competitive though. Perhaps I’m just noticing more.
I’ve been blogging since before blogging was blogging. Personal blogs are now, on the whole, not viable.

Twitter is among the best platforms for being heard by the most people with the least cost/effort.

Yeah, I get your point - to wit “get your own press”, a line I’ve used long and often. Nonetheless I recognize the value of a place where a great many congregate to converse with many - and know the importance of that forum being neutral for the betterment of all, a truism Dorsey abandoned for the worse.
The other part of the answer is that currently JuliaInterpreter is really slow because it is a very naive interpreter. Speeding it up by a factor of 5 or so should be relatively easy if anyone wants to try.
Myth of the Overnight Success
Yes?

Twitter fights their users to keep CSAM available, while Parler was pulled down for a handful of posts they claimed they’d have moderated if they discovered them.

Hosting the people who host CSAM while banning the people who actively moderate but missed a few messages shows a clear political bias.

AWS is fine hosting CSAM for Twitter, but Republicans for Parler is just disgusting. Apparently.

Consent is implicitly given when you are in public. That's what "public" means, legally. It's a place where there is no expectation of privacy, which by moving into willingly, you are giving up any expectations of privacy willingly. By conducting yourself in public, you are consenting to the loss of privacy.

Twitter should be fine if they're operating under local definitions of legal consent. If they're going to roll their own, things could get legally ugly - paparazzi could have legitimate claims of discrimination and financial damages.
Reminds of this exchange from the movie Whiplash:

Andrew Neyman: But is there a line? You know, maybe you go too far and discourage the next Charlie Parker from ever becoming Charlie Parker?

Terence Fletcher: No, man, no. Because the next Charlie Parker would never be discouraged.

I am convinced Fletcher's attitude is not only morally right, but factually correct. The strongest steel is forged in the hottest fire.
Several important DOS applications (spreadsheets, databases, CAD etc... even Doom required 4 Meg) were absolutely able to use more than 640k which was why you saw PCs with more memory: there were applications people cared about that needed it then. Granted, it was a painful business that had all sorts of limitations but the use cases were there. Anyone paying attention could look around and see that this problem had already been solved in better ways on other platforms and the various DOS multitaskers were just stop-gaps until a more universal solution (both OS and application) came along.

You would accomplish loops in Excel as you would in any array languages (apply operations on columns and tables of data). You can also do recursion in Excel. We used to solve boundary value problems in my computational physics class using Excel.

What are you talking about? Starlink isn’t operating in India yet - why would the government need to hunt down anyone?

And if Starlink did start broadcasting in Indian airwaves without a permit (not really possible since they’d need a ground station but assume they place some ground stations around India’s borders), it would be a good opportunity for India to test its anti satellite weaponry.

You are overthinking here:

1- Actually, the main problem with privacy is that most people still doesnt really care and many more underestimates its current reach, if this were somehow to happen, proably it would raise awareness and that is of topmost priority.
2- Its is already mindboggling.
3- A spy needs privacy to spy.
> would see just another kind of machinery for allowing a tiny minority to accumulate wealth.

This article is not about a tiny minority's accumulation of wealth.

This article is about the massive accumulation of wealth by attaching oneself to a pre-destined Princeling. It's about there being old gerontocratic lines of power, long established, that sometimes rise and fall, but which are the and the only means towards wealth accumulation, the only means to power.

There's no parallel here. I fully am disgusted by the West, by how much we let wealth accumulate unchecked, by how much speech & political power wealth buys. It's vile & gross. But there's no vast stasis power, there's no systematic exploitation via governance that this article so eloquently writes up. The concerns you write seem petty to me, small, versus the vast indignity & inequity that the stasis, insular, carefully self-maintaining exploitative Chinese world that is described here puts upon it's regular citizens.

Where your are born in the West is HUGELY important. Granted, yes. But the system is not inherently oppressive, resistive to outsiders & upstarts. The West wants your initiative, your gumption, wants collaborative buy in, understands that gain is mutual. The west does reward initiative, gumption, starting things. The odds are not good- if one is not already born independently wealthy- but one can absolutely get ahead, make stuff happen, just by virtue of doing good, trying hard, one's own success & merits. That alone is super exceptionally contrasting. And there's few valent powers that be hovering around actively putting you in your place. Where-as in China one's fate seems utterly purely completely determined by one's friends, by who they saddle their wagon to. We're seeing such vulgar bold signs that the Jack Ma's & other tech-origin business-folk in China are simply not permitted, will be brought to heel.

Asynchronous communication does improve my communication skills by a few notches. Back in my early career days I tend to ask permission to ask a question but it quickly turns into a very bad thing when the time is doubled.
This problem also exists in manufacturing. If you make 1,000,000 widgets and randomly sample 1,000 for quality control, how can you be sure if your processes are reliable if all of the samples pass inspection.

Luckily with most physical processes, you can assume it's >0 and go about some estimations using your linked article (a very basic one is rule of 3[0]). This particular problem where 0 vs >0 is seems impossible to make an actual inference about until some piece of data tells us it's >0.

You seem to be getting downvoted. Not sure why.

I've had someone in the family who got cancer. It was basically how you said it would be. They lived their life to the fullest, not thinking about the untreatable cancer. Do whatever is fun and makes you happy.

At some point it got bad. No more living your life. There were bad moment. There were better moments. There were worse moments. I only saw it from afar until the very end. The last bit must have been hell for the closest family. It really is just dying. Slowly. Painfully. And all society and doctors try to do is to prolong the suffering.

I'm being unfair to some people. I do know the palliative care team did their best. All volunteer doctors. Power to them.
Ah yes. The losers of the ycombinator lottery. Who have to give up their dreams…and schlep over to FAANG to make a paltry $300k/yr for doing largely nothing and with zero risk. Tragic.

Ideal Startup Career Path
This was a wonderful surprise. DESQview (and anything early Quarterdeck) holds a special place in my heart.

My uncle, Gary Pope, co-founded the company. I grew up with DESQview and QEMM as two of our primary pieces of software running on our computers.

I moved onto Linux many years later, and used to have a Linux box as my primary machine, but with a DOS computer sitting next to it, DESQview/X loaded up, and would use DESQview/X as a makeshift second monitor by using it as an X11 display server.

DESQview/X was based on X11R5, I believe, rather than X11R6, so I was a bit limited in terms of which software worked, but terminals were just fine.

Anyway...

A while back, I assembled all the DESQview/Quarterdeck material I had sitting around and put it up for others to look at. There's some stuff in here that you won't find anywhere else:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/htvf2edf3mrx0be/AABllqVhf0BzOytup...

There's a README with some background, screenshots, marketing material, photos, product reviews, and even a paper that my mom wrote up about DESQ (the precursor to DESQview and DESQview/X), with a little bit of background on its development, back in 1984.

Hope it proves interesting! :)

I'm not an expert, but my intuition is that public prisons aren't too much better. I think a prison that was focused on rehabilitation and education (so they could collect additional future revenue) would naturally provide nutrition and safety to inmates. Healthy graduates are more likely to go on to earn than malnourished trauma victims.

Of course the system would require calibration. We can't have the private prisons killing off inmates they expect would be problematic or low earners. This is just a basic concept not a detailed plan.

My point is that I don't think there's anything wrong with private prisons. We just need to make sure we have the right incentives and regulations.

Those are basically opposite ends of the same axis.

Specialised search engines are getting better. i use github search for code search, and sometimes stackoverflow search for technical questions.

This helps to find the specialised search engine, if you need one. (it scans duckduckgo for any new !bang operators, in a nightly built, here is the script: https://github.com/mosermichael/duckduckbang )

I suspect, that most of these specialised search engines are powered by elasticsearch. It may be, that elastic is starting to cut into google search, from the low end.

Sort of. It is possible to make a loop of mutually dependent formulas. By default this will politely assume you made a mistake and throw a warning message without calculating anything. However, if you know where to poke in the settings, you can enable recursive formulas and use that to rig loops. Ignore the sibling comments answer, VBA is not required.
Twitter’s user base is always near saturation; it’s not a moron base. So additional revenue most likely will come from some subscription or producer fee model. A great deal of value comes from posts by reporters, scientists, doctors, writers, front-line working people. This is lost on people reading below about an eighth grade level— limiting the user base.
Isn't the other saying that it takes 20 years to create an overnight success.

It could be useful for changes in CSV files or text files with table-like formatting where you want to commit the change in just one specific column of a row, but not the other. I could also see it for binary files which aren't structured into lines.
Given the past year's move towards remote work and knowledge workers migrating away from big cities, I'd be very interested in how "scalable businesses" adapt. Not every emerging need can be met by a remote-only companies, cool things are going to happen when these trends collide (smaller cities becoming entrepreneurial hotspots, lean companies that attend to more niche markets, unique managerial agreements, etc.)
Thanks! Lots of facts have been mentioned before, but which ones did the NLRB decide justified an election redo, is the question.

From the 11/29 Supplemental Decision (which I guessed was the relevant one just cause it was 11/29), it looks like:

1. Mainly, the mailbox in the parking lot. a bunch of different issues with it's existence and treatment that violated various rules. ("OBJECTIONS 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, AND 17 – THE MAILBOX OBJECTIONS")

2. Employer "present[ing] small groups of employees with the open and observable choice to pick up or not pick up “Vote No” paraphernalia in front of Employer agents," ("OBJECTION 11 – “VOTE NO” PARAPHERNALIA POLLING").

That's it. Just these. The details are of course in the fairly readable document, including the specifics (very specifics) on why these things were problematic.
How is this news? We've known for some time that the vaccines are leaky, and they appear to be working in regards to keeping the doctors out of the hospital and only afflicted with mild symptoms.
I agree that the problems are systemic. But behavior is individual. It's quite a reasonable way to fix the systemic issues is to hold every individual accountable for their behavior. There should be investigations in the aftermath to see how much of it was training and the trainers should be similarly sacked/liable, so we can weed out all the garbage in the end.

While elliptic curves may sound like they're related to analog data (sinusoidal curves etc), they're actually used in an incredibly discrete way. You have discrete points on an elliptic curves modulo a prime and use them in elliptic curve algebra by multiplying them by integer values, which correspond to drawing lines between different curve points.
