I'm willing to take the downvotes on this topic, since anything related to Joe Rogan is controversial but I support the existence of shows like his.

People have trouble understanding why his show is popular and what his role in it is. He's not a news anchor, a public radio host, or a broadcaster attempting to communicate information to the public. He's an approximately regular guy having long form conversations with interesting people.

In conversations people are often wrong and people often say BS things and get called out for it. And Joe Rogan says BS things and gets called out for it. That's not shocking or a gotcha about his show. It's not a bug, it's a feature.

People tune in because they get to sit in on interesting conversations that usually don't have a particular "I came on here to say" agenda. And when the reverse is the case, those episodes are heavily panned and usually those guests are not invited back.

Enjoying this type of media means putting up with plenty of BS from any given side on any given day, and doing one's own research.

If somebody isn't willing to do their own research and is instead prepared to believe anything Joe Rogan or his guests say at face value, then that's a problem for them far larger than anything they might encounter on his podcast.
We have 5k monitors, Gpus with 12GB of RAM, fast networks, etc. color in consoles, underline, bold and italics seem overdue.

What rubs me wrong is the collective halfassedness of it all. When less craps out ANSI codes, when the terminal tears and your cursor is offset because it got confused about control characters, dozens of different color configs rather than a system theme.

There was this time in the Linux dark ages, red hat Linux 2 era. The enlightenment window manager was considered part of protocol GNOME, there were a lot of really exotic or organic themes, skinning was the hotness. Windows couldn’t do it. Ux be damned, if you wanted your desktop to look like some sort of demonic rune set, you could do it. Rationality, ux, consistency, etc took over. Cli skinning never seems to grow that way. I keep hoping some hacker that doesn’t know better will write a new terminal emulator, replaces ANSI codes with some minimal html and invents console css and the community embraces it.
Correcting you, this was indeed reported in the MSM. For example see:

Who is 'we' in this case?
Isn't the correct answer to this - it depends? Neither side can make a complete blanket statement. It depends on age and which vaccine you take. For example, the risk of myocarditis is higher for ages < 40 and those who receive the Moderna vaccine.

Vinay Prasad talks about this extensively. Here is one of his posts. It's also more of a risk for Pfizer, depending on the sex, age and dose.

Abuse by feudal lords who essentially owned their lives as well.

Where does this romantic idea of poor but free but noble peasants come from? That's not how it worked.

Capitalism has it's problems, no argument, but the potential freedom it provided was much better for the average peasant then what was going on before.
What this letter is effectively saying is that you can't share an opinion on anything, even if you have expertise in a field, if it at all goes against the Cathedral.

I don't give a damn if someone is wrong. I listen to people who are wrong all the time because that's the only way to sometimes find out if you are wrong yourself.

If you read the letter from these doctors, which is linked to in the WP article, all it does is assert that Malone's positions are wrong and dangerous. Are they? Is the fact that you can find a variety of doctors to openly disagree with Malone actually worth something?

In actuality, the list of individuals who signed this open letter is padded; I see a nurse practitioner, a science teacher, a PhD student, a medical student, a registered nurse, a nurse practitioner, another registered nurse, a licensed clinical worker... I could go on and on.

So is my ability to listen to people to be dictated by nurse practitioners and med school students? Get real.

When people aren't allowed to hear different opinions or contrary facts, and they aren't supposed to make their own decision that deviates from the mainstream in any way, they are cattle.

Although this was pretty much the only JRE episode I bothered to listen to on Spotify in quite some time, I hope Spotify ignores this tripe.

This is the only part that matters here. Doesn't matter how narrowly the law was complied with. Laws are the purview of lawmakers. If the lawmakers leave loopholes in their legislation all companies that can will avail themselves of these loopholes.

You haven't actually listened because he's 100% for the vax for high risk groups. I'd be really curious how you can "easy disprove" the main themes that come up on his show: natural immunity is better than the vax, big pharma has a long history of lawsuits and criminal penalties for falsifying data, effective treatments do exist, and there's a higher risk profile of the vax than public authorities let on. Those are the big themes, so please, "easy disprove" them?

Per the last one: The FOI lawsuit pertaining to FDA approval (follow Aaron Siri) already revealed in the first 2.5 months of the rollout that Pfzier received 130k case incidents of adverse events. VAERS shows staggering incidents of disability and death, and he's spoken with many physicians who believe there's useful signal from VAERS like there has been for over 30 years. A bunch of countries have now slapped myocarditis warnings on either Pfzier or Moderna. He talks about the 15+ people he knows who have had serious reactions after second dose or booster including his friend's daughter who's now dead. Our family friend here died after booster. The articles about european footballers dropping on the field from cardiac issues (greater than previous 20 years combined) is a signal too. He even had a guest talk about fake vax card going around in Hollywood because many celebrities/people of means don't want to risk it. There's plenty of other statistical or otherwise anecdotal signals that you can hear about if you decide to listen to his show, or you can follow dozens of other people on substacks who track these issues. But please go ahead and disprove all of it.
On our induction top, you set the temperature you want per eye. Instead of remembering that eggs need a flame about *this* big, you learn that eggs need about 320°F. It took some getting the hang of, but I wouldn't describe it as guesswork.

I'm more tired of people writing on Medium than I am of modern web.

To authors everywhere: Stop writing on medium.
I was resoundingly in the 'induction hobs are crap' camp until this NYE when we found ourselves staying away in the countryside in a place with a basic plug-in induction hob. I sighed and presumed my Absolutely Necessary morning tea would take until the heat death of the universe to boil, but nup, it was done in significantly less time than it takes me at home, when using gas.

If a crappy plug-in hob can boil water that quickly, it can cook that quickly too.

Next move I'm getting that sorted out - no more gas! (Mind you, companies are beginning trials here in the UK mixing Hydrogen with the gas supply, so there's a part of me that still wonders at the future benefit/end to end efficiency).

> As long as humans submit the external data to the blockchain someone can cheat with the data.

I am glad to see someone else who realizes this point. When people were all excited about supply chain blockchains (for example, a blockchain to verify a piece of fruit is picked in a certain place at a certain time, that the transportation truck maintains a certain temperature) I kept asking what stops someone from lying and putting in bad data or tampering with any sensors along the way? There seemed to be this idea that what was on a blockchain was automatically truth just because it was on a blockchain.

Cincinnati’s Unused Subway System Is a Century-Old Dream That Won’t Die
I took the leap, left a startup 3 months ago to be a full-time interviewee.

Personal top priority is to get to an established company with attractive talent and tech which comes with a high barrier of entry.

There are zero ways I could have done these interviews (esp in parallel) pre-covid, or at all if I:
had a job that required my physical presence, had children, required healthcare, had debt, was single, didn't make enough to save for this unemployment, had an addiction, had an H1B ...

Would love to see some far-futured economic analysis where we find out for every $1 we invest in helping and educating our public, we get $10 back through taxes or services.
This is a false conjecture. Chinese scientists experienced a clamp down on virology publishing around the original time of the outbreak, and at this point there is social stigma attached to lab leak that may very well encourage people not to publish.

Nevermind the diplomatic implications. If, hypothetically, tomorrow the official stance of the U.S. Government changed to hold that China was responsible for the manufacture of the virus, that despite the part the U.S. had in funding it being facilitated by failures in process at NIH, this would signal a sizable shift in attitude toward the Chinese, and could very well escalate tensions to a degree no one has a stomach for.

>There's no "establishment" conspiracy to suppress evidence of the lab leak theory. The Biden administration ordered further investigation as one of their first acts. No suppression there.

You have no idea how much classified data and information may exist. There is a whole corpus of knowledge kept out of the public's view for years because of how the Executive feels about how much more complicated it would make their lives. I would not dismiss official perception management as quickly as you do. The government does not hint. It does not offer, and leaves it to the public to do their own research until such time as the public largely figures it out independently; and then still will not confirm or deny. Look into how the body of knowledge around nuclear weapons was cobbled together by uncleared or non-government affiliated researchers. FOGBANK was such a closely guarded secret, it had to have it's manufacturing process reserved. Same with various B-1 part manufacturing processes.

I have no idea how old you are, or how much time you spend observing how groups of people work and behave emotionally, but it's fairly obvious to me that this type of finding is something no one with an appreciation for second order effects wants to let out of the bottle without a lot of thought, or blind faith it is the RIGHT thing to do; least of all those virologists who either truly believe GoF research is necessary, or those that wish to conduct research without a billion hoops to jump through. Further, not all the old-timers from WWII are dead yet, and those with parents who lived through the Cold War are fairly certain that if it comes down to a WWIII, there may not be a return to any semblance of normality in the aftermath. This is exactly the kind of flashpoint in history that resonates with lighting that kind of fuse.

> I gain nothing by mocking [database queries and transactions] them out.

What about the fact that you will need to spin up, migrate and possibly seed a database in your CI pipeline? What about the toll this will take on the execution speed of your test suite? Additionally, consider that you also need to test the behavior of your system when the query fails, and using a mock implementation that always throws an exception is a trivial and reliable way of achieving this.

> That said if the interaction between your system and it's deps is sufficiently unreliable that you need mocks for test reliability, how are you going to have any confidence in the system's production behavior?

Sometimes your codebase depends on external services which are flaky for reasons beyond your control, just the way it be sometimes. Mocks are useful to ensure the system behaves a certain way when everything goes right as well as when everything goes wrong.

Ultimately the article raises many good points about avoiding mocks if it can be helped, but don't forget a test that only tests the happy path of your system is not very useful. Mock an error in that dependency you expect to always work and understand what would happen, make the necessary provisions.
> How's the price of house even mattered all their life?

Be thankful that it didn't. But if they have full ownership, if all their other retirement savings went away, the equity of the home could be leveraged for living expenses:

> This is an “if all else fails” enhancement that Vettese (and I) hope will not prove necessary. For many Canadians with substantial home equity, it’s nice to know that in a worst-case scenario, your home equity can be tapped. But, Vettese warns, “it should only be used to provide necessary income, not to enhance one’s lifestyle.” He also says it should not be considered until age 75. He notes that a reverse mortgage typically involves about 180 basis points higher than a HELOC would charge.

* https://findependencehub.com/retired-money-boost-retirement-...

If someone lives long enough that they are no longer able to take care of themselves, and it is not possible for them to live with family, then the equity could be used for paying for an assisted long-term elderly care facility.

Those games don't have permadeath. Permadeath means you can't recover from mistakes by loading a save file.
Yes, this is why many larger media sites opt to use header bidding. The decrease in CTR (click through rate) is offset by increased demand for each ad unit, driving up CPM (effectively the price of the ad).

The downside of this for websites is more middlemen extracting away value - but it’s usually still a net gain, otherwise publishers just wouldn’t use header bidding.

(I’ve worked in several large media companies and have implemented header bidding solutions for them in the past)
I see sources claiming that a gas stove on low can go as low as 137F, but I think that's a bit misleading because the heat is so uneven. If you've got a pot of water, maybe the water will be heated to 137F, but the temperature where the water meets the metal will be much higher; this is why double boilers exist.

But it sounds like induction legitimately makes double boilers obsolete (and rather quaint and limited to be restricted to 212F when you have the free, precise choice of even heat at any temperature between 100F and 500F.)
Sounds like current online shopping...
I've heard a very small handful of clips from Rogan. The two that I heard this week were him talking to someone who disagreed with him, showed him a study, and Rogan still didn't want to admit he was wrong, and another, which I"m told is quite old, where he was going on about some new primates and a primatologist called in to tell him he was wrong and he talked all over her and mocked her credentials.

These may be very rare and cherry picked examples but they still don't make me want to give him any more of my time.
Do you have a link to a picture or product page? Just to get an idea. I've been looking for something like that for a while.
There's a "restart mission" button however which is the antithesis of permadeath.

An optional "iron man" mode (I think recent games utilizing the XCOM brand have it?) is something that deserves to be discussed separately.

Ahh that makes sense! For what it's worth, the cooktop we're using was $200. It is a bit rubbish: coil whine and the temp control is pretty coarse, but serviceable. I haven't looked, but I'd guess there's a sensible middle ground somewhere in between!

You're taking two separate ideas and implying that they are supposed to be somehow consistent when consistency isn't required for either to be correct in some capacity.

By your logic, if a doctor smokes cigarettes, then their health advice to be patients is bunk. Perhaps the same could be said of a fat doctor. That analogy is of course not comparable, but it's similar enough on a judgmental level.
Well we can have our cake and eat it too. Keep simple and limited machines for work, and intelligent ones to talk to and treat as equals to help us in other ways.

Selected section for boat operators:

* Boat operators,
* Where time and conditions permit, move your boat out to
sea to a depth of at least 180 feet.

* If at sea avoid entering shallow water, harbors,
marinas, bays, and inlets to avoid floating and
submerged debris and strong currents.

* Do not go to the shore to observe the tsunami.

* Do not return to the coast until local emergency officials
indicate it is safe to do so.

This doesn’t seem to be specifically about house boats. Might be worth contacting your local emergency officials (whoever they may be).
Induction hubs are electric but not all electric hub are induction. I’m not certain what you have there, sounds a little like halogen zones though those are old and uncommon.

Induction doesn’t work by producing heat. It works by using electro magnets to excite the metal pots causing them to heat. This makes induction much more efficient than conventional electric (more efficient than gas too) but also fast to react to adjustments in heat settings because you’re not relying on conduction.

What should give you pause: imagine what it could have been like without all those measures. Because they do work, and if in spite of that you have a pretty bad disaster on your hand that translates into being spared from a much worse one.
The general question is: do you adjust to your environment or do you try to reshape your environment? There is no right or wrong. Some things, you can’t change, some you can. And it can be difficult to know when to adjust and when to reshape. At least it is for me.
I think the point is just generally pretty efficient.

If you are interested in technicalities:

- 5-15% loss in power transporting energy [1]

- 30-40% efficiency of natural gas turbines (where most power comes from, 2nd highest is coal; which is worse)[2]

- 80% efficiency induction heating [3]

- in all likelihood (haven’t done math). The heat lost from wood stove cooking heats your house and cooks your food with a renewable resource. It’s likely more efficient than induction.
