true but in this context the writers should have gone a little out of their way to be more accurate in the depection. or come up with a more generic name for the type of establishment.

Could have easily just been Wedding Clothes Store, or "Traditional Indian dress" they got very specific when they probably didn't need to to advance the storyline.

in your example I could have gone to those stores or said walmart/target/shopco/fred meyers and it would have satisified all of your arguments. But i wouldn't go to the Nuts and Bolts store to get hotdogs, or to the butchers for nuts and bolts (nuts maybe... )

Plus isn't she a fashion writer in the show? she could spout off dozens of styles of shoes by their proper names, so it wouldn't be far fetched to know the difference between a couple of styles of dress
>Why not?

Because murdering someone and making them look bad are not the same thing. Even children know this.

> Just because they don’t have a domestic assasination program doesn’t make them any better.

Why not? Is the argument here that western intelligence agencies do bad stuff at a bigger scale than the FSB and the MSS? I’d love to see evidence of that.

I think the truth is that western intelligence agencies face far more scrutiny. The FSB can (attempt to) murder leading opposition politicians without any meaningful domestic criticism, the same is absolutely not true of western services.

That is a great question and we, for sure, need to add this to our website in an FAQ section or something. We have our own database for this and look at "risky ingredients" in two ways: (1) Ingredients that are banned or heavily restricted in other countries are flagged as red (brominated flour, red 40, etc.) and (2) ingredients that may not be banned anywhere, but have numerous peer reviewed studies citing their negative impact to our health are flagged as yellow (high fructose corn syrup, artificial sweeteners, etc.).
I feel ya here. My family has owned a couple nice parcels of rural property for years and I just kind of took it for granted. A few years ago I read The Overstory by Richard Powers and it really fired up my interest in nature and trees. I can't walk anymore without trying to identify every tree in the woods. It's humbling how much longer some of the older ones have been on this earth than we have - several of the very large white oaks in my dad's woods would have witnessed Native Americans.

I'm in my 30s now and can't get enough of being in the woods or mountains, bow hunting, walking, or whatever, especially in the fall and winter seasons. I'd take a day in nature over any other hobby at this point.
Yea, probably, but it is especially true for DynamoDB because it can initially appear as though your use cases are all supported but that is only because you haven't internalized how it works yet. By the time you realize you made a mistake, you are way too far in the weeds and have to start over from scratch. I would venture that more than 50% of DynamoDB users have had this happen to them early on. Anecdotally, just look at the comments on this post. There are so many horror stories with DynamoDB, but they're basically all people who decided to use it before they really understood it.

Aside from the still dubious "certainty" of this clinical conclusion, there are far too man y puritans on this comment threat hoping to optimize every last possible, squeezable ounce of supposed health from life by railing against alcohol as well. Quite simply, some things have social, personal and emotional benefits that might just be worth a bit more in the long run than being an absolutist who weighs the most minimal uncertainties of pleasurable acts at all times. To each their own, but what a terrible way to live a life, and especially with the full knowledge that many previous health studies by many large organizations have frequently fucked up in their claims that X or Y is bad or good, only to later change their tunes with new evidence.
Blacklisting "blacklist" is pretty humorous. Are "showboy", "womankind", and "conman" allowed?

My impression is that implying "male", "white", etc. (via pronoun, gendered language, ...) is definitely the preferred and PC usage...so long as the context is unfavorable. Ax murderers? Price-gouging pharma execs? Un-sympathetic homeless persons? They all gotta be straight white males, right?

(Yes, I'm quite aware that many people work in circumstances where this optional filter is a genuinely useful feature.)
Many of the comments focus on the individual. There should also be consideration for societal concerns and overall public health.
That's a hard argument to make. "2nd hand smoke" is (for now) unavoidable (though has decreased dramatically over the last decade or two). "2nd hand alcohol" is not really a thing at all. We choose to drink it, or we choose not to (ignoring heinous acts of coerced drinking).

I have a problem with articles like this one that popularizing "intuition" even more than it is right now.

There are 2 definitions on intuitions that I see out there in the wild, one is wrong, one has merit.

1. The good intuition is what k by Malcolm Gladwell describes in his book "Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking" and it's based on true, proven expertise.

2. The bad one is often the product of anxious behavior, where someone comes up with hundreds of possible scenarios prior to the fact, and then, post-mortem, when the IRL outcome matches one of those hundreds scenarios there's the "I knew it" moment.

Hipotesis and assertions have an element of Intuition, but they are worthless without any action; and plain stupid if the actions are now hedged/diversified.
Doom Emacs is excellent. I believe you were negatively impressed by the default install, but you can install it without any packages you don't wan't, or any package at all. You can even remove Evil altogether.

You can also easily remove anything afterwards.

Doom is essential for my sanity, and extremely flexible. I can do everything I want, just like on a barebones install. But I do it in a way that is way simpler, more practical, and performant. I'd use Doom even without any of its modules, just for the macros, the speed, and the sane configuration layout.

I tried the build your own route for 2 years, ended up with a huge messy init impossible to maintain. Doom removes a lot of complexity and provides extremely useful macros. The guy really knows what he's doing, and the optimizations that he uses are impressive.
"Nevertheless, men with obesity aged 55 y and older lived 2.8 (95% CI −6.1 to −0.1) fewer y without diabetes than normal weight individuals, whereas, for women, the difference between obese and normal weight counterparts was 4.7 (95% CI −9.0 to −0.6) y. Men and women with obesity lived 2.8 (95% CI 0.6 to 6.2) and 5.3 (95% CI 1.6 to 9.3) y longer with diabetes, respectively, compared to their normal weight counterparts."

Is this study suggesting that obese people with diabetes lived longer than obese people without diabetes? I suppose that diabetes as a condition is not harmful in and of itself and perhaps leads to a healthier lifestyle?

I don't consume alcohol because I think it's healthy, I consume it because it tastes sometimes good and because it feels good.

I'd call those totally different experiences. Depersonalization/derealization SUCKS. I had episodes of that for months after an LSD trip. It's not fun.

However, I've definitely had other experiences I would call proper out of body experiences, and those feel more insightful and interesting. Mostly those came from meditation, but one came the first time I had to kill an animal. (I had to put down a rabbit that was suffering a long slow death, and I remember it was really weird. I watched myself swing the axe, but I didn't initiate the swing nor keep it going. It just happened. Strange feeling.)

The former doesn't feel out of body, it feels more like you're stuck in the wrong body, or one you just don't identify with. Like it doesn't feel right, it feels like it's in the wrong position, or like a strange robot your don't quite know the ins and outs of. It CAN feel like you're watching yourself, but it's... different. I don't know quite how to explain. Like, in the out of body, you are watching yourself, but you identify WITH the observer. With the DP/DR, you don't really identify with the body you're watching OR the observer. It just feels detached and wrong.

Same thing here. Within the past two years I started a transition to a regular Google Account b/c GApps Free was a second class citizen (no family groups, etc.)

I have to say I don't particularly see the wisdom of this (common) view.

It's acceptable to people to use the standard Elisp, and Emacs itself, without digesting that code, but somehow using a canned config is bad. I find the choice of where to draw the dividing line somewhat arbitrary.

If you'd like to get rid of software patents, the lawyers, company management, and professional societies are not going to help. Band together, get a Congressman to introduce a bill, and then start pressuring candidates to support it.

If you write an op-ed about this, your opponents will cite medical and biological patents to defend "patents as an abstract idea." They will muddy the issue. The only way to defeat that is to separate out "software patents as a bad idea" from "worthwhile inventions that deserve patenting." You, yourself, might want to abolish all patents, but that proposal will face a blizzard of opposition.

The court has demanded that patent examiners who make a finding of obviousness cite documentary evidence for each feature in a claim, no matter how mundane or obvious the feature is. But what if the feature is so mundane no one would write about it? The paradoxical result is that the more obvious a feature, the harder it can be to prove obvious.

This is nonsense. Things are "generally known to ones ordinarily skilled in the art" can be ruled obvious and are all the time.

One researcher estimated that, for software-related inventions, about 50 percent of patents are likely invalid, even under the existing permissive standards for validity.

It's more like 90%, and I've read hundreds of them.

Slavery is not alcohol, and equating the two is a very obvious strawman argument
LIBOR grew out of the same ecosystem that created Eurodollars. Originally a Eurodollar was simply a dollar held in a non-US domiciled bank, in particular a bank outside of the Federal Reserve System. The story, at least partly true, is that the Soviet Union was making a ton of money selling oil. Thanks to OPEC, the market for oil is denominated in dollars. Soviet oil companies didn't mind the dollars, but they didn't want money in US banks, and so the Eurodollar was created. In the USD money market (the interbank lending market for terms < 12 months) the most riskfree rate is the Fed Funds rate -- that is the rate which banks lend to ach other within the Fed system. In the money market for USD, everything was quoted in terms of Fed Funds, e.g. Fed Funds + 50 etc. Banks with EuroDollar deposits couldn't partake in the Fed system, but they needed something similar, and so LIBOR was created.

Well, then it grew. US banks got involved in EuroDollars and foreign banks got US subsidiaries and everything kind of ballooned.

But the big change was the invention of interest rate swaps. Interest rate swaps create a linkage between the Money Market (terms < 12 months) and the Capital Market (terms > 12 months). There are a bunch of economic explanations as to why interest rate swaps exist and some of them have to be true, but they're irrelevant to the LIBOR story. A vanilla fixed-floating swap needs a floating rate, and that's LIBOR. A couple of trillion dollars (notional) worth of derivatives later, instead of simply being a pragmatic way to quote rates in the money market, it then drove P&L of derivatives desks.

I think everyone knew the potential for manipulation was always possible, but for a long time I think, until the tail started wagging the dog, it worked. But there's no going back now.
I would counter that if you’re worried about how a potential significant other is judging your food choices, you should use that as a first-pass filter. I would also suggest owning your choices, groceries included. Confidence is attractive, as they say.

Around half of people with high blood pressure are salt sensitive and have higher BP when they consume salt, the other half simply pee more salt and zero effect. In the general population its much rarer only something like a quarter of people are salt sensitive.

In the USA about 1 in 10 people have diagnosed type II diabetes (supposedly 33 million) and about 2/3 of the general population are some stage of fat and are essentially undiagnosed type-2, either way people with insulin disorders have that aggravated by sugar intake.

Ironically if you're not sensitive to salt or sugar they aren't risky.
I remember talking to someone who was playing with AWS stuff for the first time and they had a similar architecture, using Dynamo for a lookup store. It still seems a bit odd to me though. It's been a long time since I've worked with the S3 API, so maybe it just doesn't support the same sort of thing, but wouldn't it be nicer to just query S3 with some key and get back either the path/URL to render a link, or the content itself? Why the Dynamo intermediary? (And on the other side, if you don't need to render a link to serve the content, why not use Dynamo as the actual document store and skip S3? Storage cost?)
Not suggesting anything, but just curious, will it change your mind if it was funded by "blood money"?

> Please explain how they can use the money from other people account to cover the losses.

Once it enters their hands, the money isn't really “from” a particular account in any tangible way.

> If i had a account there, i wouldn't allow them to use my money to cover this.

An account is just a record of funds to which you are entitled; there are certain types of relations where someone keeping money for you legally needs to keep it segregated from other funds of theirs, but crypto.com doesn't have that kind of relationship with account holders. If they don't provide you with your funds when you ask, you can try legal action to recover it, but you don't have a veto on whether they update the entry recording someone else's balance to make them whole after a hack, even if that increases the risk that they won't have your money when you want to withdraw it.

Why? These customers made a choice in a setup specifically designed to allow them to make a choice. Rather than take any of a number of other providers that offer contractual rates they specifically chose a provider that charges live wholesale rate. During most of the time that saves them money, but it also means during these events it costs more money. The flip side is these customers kept their power on while millions of Texans went without power for up to a week which resulted in hundreds dying. They and their families got to get through a weather crisis with power service many others didn't have, but they had to pay the going wholesale rate to do so, just as they agreed to in their contract. Considering that 99.999% [0] of Texans didn't take this deal, it seems unfair to act as if this is a "trick", it was a calculated bet this small number of consumers made and they ended up losing the bet.

It's AGLPv3, which is usually OK for development tools because you aren't modifying/shipping them to customers - only the output/artifacts (a la GCC). But NaturalDocs will inject AGPLv3 artifacts (JS, CSS, etc.) into your doc output:

Portions of Natural Docs are automatically included with generated documentation in order to

So if you're shipping docs generated by NaturalDocs to customers then you are shipping AGPLv3 and need to follow the license requirements.
