"FWIW", the last president declared that climate change was a hoax invented by China to make the US weaker. I don't know about "official position of any political office" but "climate change is a hoax" (or similar) is a common position on one half of the US political divide.
Waterfall does not need to make a comeback, it never died. It's still a gross and stupid process for anything but trivial projects or well-understood (by the developers) domains. If you're working on a large scale project, it's one of the worst ways to work. The next worst is to just type on a keyboard and hope you manage to write code and somehow trigger the build and deploy commands.
Since these are going to be rich people, the rest of us are going to cover their losses through our taxes.

We already technically do, individuals make decisions that we know - today - that are wrong decisions, but we subsidize those decisions.

E.g. Suburbs that are going bankrupt, but legally can't go bankrupt. Heavy development in flood plains, etc.
They’re printouts.
Or the classic: have lunch with your colleagues and then walk back to the office. I hope you didn't take all the insulin in the restaurant, just half and half back in the office. It's a nasty drop otherwise...
Waterfall is alive and well, most places just refer to it as something else like "agile" or "scrum."
That’s just it, though: it isn’t an AWS horror story. It’s the sorcerer’s apprentice.

Yes combining relatively independent sensors will increase the MI.
Yeah, I couldn't come up with one, either.

Kibbutzim are questionably successful at best - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kibbutz_crisis for example, but they seem to be an upper scalability limit.

> A hot bath or shower can raise (then lower) BGL.

I suspect the author has come to this conclusion from CGM data, and therefore also that it is wrong (or at least not a very significant effect).

I also have T1D, and CGMs like Freestyle Libre (and probably also Dexcom) includes a temperature sensor and adjusts its readings based on the external temperature to increase accuracy. I think the changes in blood sugar levels during hot showers (etc) is probably due to the sensor not adjusting quickly enough to the rapid change in temperature, and not a physiological response.

For example, if I go directly from room temperature to my cold balcony, the CGM value will immediately make a huge jump upwards with the next reading, but then quickly revert back down again within the following readings. Considering the 15 minute lag time between plasma glucose and the interstitial readings of the sensor, its unlikely the sensor is immediately measuring a change in plasma glucose – it's simply (over)reacting and adjusting to the new temperature (since the thermometer won't have such a long lag time).

Very hot environments, such as a hot sauna, also makes my CGM readings completely inaccurate.
And everyone who doesn't live near a coastal city is going to pay for the relocation of everyone who continues to live there despite recurring flooding and a bleak future outlook.
> I could write a test for my first pass at a function... but then if I decide I need to actually split that function into two or go for a different approach entirely, then I have to basically scrap that test.

Then you're writing a function coupled to the test, not writing logic you can plug into the test to reasonably verify it works as intended.

That's the bit people miss I think. Tests should reflect how the code is consumed, and test for that (inputs and outputs, more or less) not for implementation details. Your test shouldn't care if its 1 function or 7.
Saw this on Battlestar Galactica, killer vents the atmosphere from an external control box and escapes unseen. Later on its noticed that everyone in the room has died. ;) You think there would be alarms on an engineering station someplace that would fire off when the atmosphere gets thin.
>> most of what I hear is a question of how much is human caused/accelerated, rather than whether it's happening at all.

I feel like that's last decade's news.

Many people I hear now are just fed up of the hypocrites and would as soon watch it all melt/burn/explode rather than let smug folk like Kerry be the "Climate Czar" while tooling around the globe on his Airstream.

Greta has a point when she starts raving about the climate change conferences where each of the attendees all flew in on their private jets. It's pretty shameful.
I think this article does a great job covering many of the difficulties of T1D.

One component I think was under-emphasized is the fact that correction insulin doses are not based on what your current blood glucose(BG) levels are, but on where you predict they will be when the dose really starts taking effect.

Take for example a current best case scenario of having a Loop system via a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) and pump:

If you took a reasonable guess dose for a meal then check your BG levels after the meal, you may find that you have a steeply inclining graph.
Here are two possible cases:

A. You took a correct dose and the timings are slightly out of sync, but BG will eventually turn around.

B. You under-dosed and will need to either take a correction dose, or wait a long time for the basal dose to fix it.

It can at times be very difficult to distinguish between A and B, and guessing wrong has consequences. Futhermore, you won't really know which is the case until sometime later.

If you are wrong about A then you did nothing, but really you needed to take an correction dose. You won't find out you were wrong for a while, in the meantime your BG is sky-rocketing.

If you are wrong about B: then you over-dosed and are running low. How much did you over-dose? How many carbs should you consume to correct?

Because your CGM only updates every 5 minutes, and typical rapid acting insulin takes about 20 minutes to really get going, this cycle can play out every 25 minutes or so until you have stabilized your BG. all while you may have unhealthy BG levels, and you may be Yo-yo-ing.

This is very slightly mitigated by using an ultra-rapid insulin like Lyumjev, or Fiasp, which can get going in 15 minutes, giving you a tighter loop.

It would be very helpful if:

1. ... CGM devices had options for more frequent updates during highs and lows. Tighter feedback loops could go a long way.

2. ... pumps could dose insulin and glucagon automatically.

3. ... there were even faster acting insulins. This is tough because most insulins are injected interstitially, which takes time for your body to absorb. Maybe an out-patient implantable pump that could inject intravenously would help?

4. ... there were BETTER INSULIN PUMP SOFTWARE for calculating doses. I have a Tandem T:Slim x2. I can tell it how many carbs I am eating. Only that. It doesn't count or learn from: proteins, fats, what kinds of carbs, or what specific ingredients are there, or their ratios. All of this can dramatically effect how quickly your BG rises, bringing you back to the original problem of guessing. It should be possible to select from a database of commercially available food and manually provided recipes.

I'm the maintainer of the iOS/macOS app these days. I'm not paid by Nabu Casa and I do it in my free time (if anything, Nabu Casa has avoided doing things which may inadvertently monetize my work to not my benefit, which I appreciate).

There's no analytics nor reporting in the app. I've been slowly removing[0] things that talk to servers other than your Home Assistant server, but your private information's never left the device. Right now the app will talk to 2 additional sources, both of which you can disable in the Privacy settings:

1. alerts.home-assistant.io, which will alert for security issues but is strictly a JSON file it loads [1]

2. Firebase Cloud Messaging, for push notifications (since we can't talk to APNS directly in HA)

FCM is a dependency I'm actively trying to kill off in favor of an implementation that is both end-to-end encrypted and talks directly to Apple's Push Notification Service. Apple would not allow a solution where HA talks directly to APNS as they do not want that many active connections, and it would require disclosing private keys for the App Store account.

Unless Robbie wanted to give me his personal Apple ID password, moving the app to the Nabu Casa App Store account was the only way for me to do anything with the app.

This misses the point--PostgreSQL on my machine is either lossy or slow. A UPS (or battery, in my case) doesn't fix that.

I like keepassxc.

For everybody trying it:
avoid the password sharing feature. It's currently hopelessly broken. The last time I had a look it was a known issue that needs major rework.
IMO that can be worked around be keeping a dedicated database for shared scenarios -- albeit not practically fine grained for every secret. (I don't care, yet)
Because the money train is still running ... until it stops. As with most systemic problems the vested interests in the status quo will prop something up as long as possible, ignoring the underlying failures until all at once a domino effect kicks off and years of collapse appear to hit all at once.

I'd imagine it'll be around insurance underwriting for the structures and the financial instruments attached to them.

I used to feel guilty when I wasn't being productive. It took me a while to realize that if you're drained, then you should look away from being "productive" and instead look at "recreation". One way I think about it, is that if I take a break today, I can come back stronger tomorrow. Or, I can push through it today and then be forced to take a longer break because my mind/body won't perform.

I wish a retained a reference (next time), but apex predators spend a very little time hunting and the vast majority of their time resting and recovering. Maybe something worth learning.
The negativity is needed because too many people think the sky is not falling. The can has been sufficiently kicked and the problem has become a fact of life. There hasn't been mass mobilizations for climate policy in 30 years. The oil barons won.

People need to be fucking angry.
Can you give me an example of a third part app that might need access to on-device data outside the app, but for which obfuscated data would be sufficient?

Let's say I have a calendar app and ask users for permission to access their address book, how would obfuscated address data be useful to the app? Of if I have a navigation app and need access to location data, how would you obfuscate that and still have it capable of navigation? I suspect you haven't thought this through.

Isn't this true of essentially most cuisines though, to be carb rich? Indian, Chinese, Mexican, Italian, French, etc - the typical diet in most places is heavily skewed towards carb in general. It's a matter of adjusting the ratio of protein-rich foods vs carbs within that cuisine to your needs.
No one knew about climate change in 1957. It was a theoretical possibility that required decades of research, development, and infrastructure to prove. You're talking about literal terraforming - no one was sure that such a thing was actually possible. And even today we are still discovering novel mechanisms which obscure, regulate, or amplify temperature fluctuations. The case against 195X oil companies is overstated - though it makes for a convenient scapegoat.
> The Columbo TV show is, in my humble opinion, a masterpiece in disguise.

Why in disguise? It’s just simply a masterpiece, not just as a detective show but also as a vehicle for the actors to enjoy themselves. It made it so much better watching the stars of the time do something they clearly liked. Everyone is in on the gag, the writers, the star, the guests, and the audience. It was more of the next verse in a familiar song than it was a show every episode.

> Conversations are done with no malice, but with that clear objective in mind.

At first, but by the middle of most episodes, he knows all he needs to already and is just playing cat and mouse with the villain, and the audience.
I think question really is what to develop. SFH just aren't sustainable. At least if you want sane pricing.
> But for privacy or opsec that's probably even worse than a saas option.

Probably not, the attack vector of an apk of dubious provenance is probably that it sends all of your transcriptions to some 3rd party server. There's some non-zero probability that it does that, and it's possible you could run it in a network-less sandbox somehow to mitigate it.

But with the saas service, you know for a fact it's going to a 3rd party server, who can store it for as long as they want. And if they aren't hacked now, they could be in the future.

If it's any consolation, running a proxy at least increases the baseline cost of using 3P trackers. User telemetry and other data is small, but for popular apps that adds up and gets factored into the equation on whether or not to use 3P.

That really depends on your local area and your needs. If you decided to keep renting in Vancouver instead of buying in 2002...yeah, you made a mistake. If you decided to keep renting in Detroit instead of buying in 2002 - you have come out quite ahead. Also, even if property values tend to go up over time, that doesn't mean that homeowners can bridge the gap of maintaining ownership in down periods. If you bought in 2006, you might find yourself underwater on your mortgage 3 years later, with stagnating or declining wages and threats of unemployment, and forced to sell, even if you believed the market would rebound eventually.
> The good news is that it is actually really hard to die from low blood sugar, assuming good medical care is available.

Except it's extremely hard to get medical care when your mind and body shuts down because of a severe case of hypoglycemia. There isn't always somebody around to call an ambulance.

If you haven't experienced a severe episode of hypoglycemia yourself, you really don't understand fully how it can effect both the mind and body, even if you've seen it in your wife.

And like the other poster mentioned, 6-10% of T1D's die of hypoglycemia. It's a lot easier to die of than you're giving it credit for.

If COVID had a 6-10% death rate, I don't think anyone would be saying "it's actually really hard to die from COVID".

> And I'm not sure a 20% insulin overdose would trigger coma

You can experience hypoglycemia without any insulin overdose. There are many other factors that impact your BG, and sometimes a combination of those will hit a T1D with a severe hypo, even if they took what should have been the correct insulin:carb ratio.
It's entirely possible to wall off the sea and pump river water over it to keep cities dry. The Dutch have been doing it for centuries. All that is required is quite a bit of money and political will.

I agree that Quordle is compelling but not sure I see your argument for how Wordle would get repetitive. 2300 is six years worth of words. They could shuffle the word list every 4 years and it’d be fine.

I think a big part of what makes Wordle compelling is the ritualistic daily nature so not seeing how this would beat it out.
Yes! I was thinking of Pinterest. I completely misread the OP. I can't delete my comment unfortunately.
There is one Columbo episode "Forgotten Lady" that is somewhat unique in that his questioning technique doesn't exactly work out as usual, and even when he figures out the truth, it doesn't lead to justice. And he even wears a tuxedo! It is considered one of the better episodes of the original series, at least according to reviews at IMDB, and my own recent serendipitous viewing.

Serious comment:

1) This is a right-wing/centre-left issue. The Conservatives are looking for a hammer to hit the Minority Liberal government and decided the truckers were it. Most provincial premiers are Conservative or conservative, so they agreed with this approach and sorta disappeared when the truckers appeared. Unfortunately for this plan, the truckers decided to close the border and hurt Ontario (and Canada) pretty significantly. This goaded our premier to wake up and take some steps as he faces an election later this year. They also fear losing supporters to the PPC which is far-right which is one reason they tossed their former leader a few weeks ago.

2) The Bloc, the Federal version of the Quebec separatists, probably could not give two sh*ts about the truckers as they don't represent a problem for Quebec. I feel quite strongly that they welcome any Federal failure as proof that Quebec can go it alone. The LAST thing they ever want is to end up relying on them...

3) The left-centre (Liberals, NDP, Greens) oppose the mob. And it's a minority government propped up by some party voting with the Liberals. While they identified with the Indigenous folks who blockaded stuff just before Covid, they opposed the methodology and result.

So it's quite similar to much of the Western world, with the added spice of the Bloc being present.

Couldn’t agree more with the author, which in my opinion is shared among all major specialists of the region.

Minsk II is the only diplomatic solution. Sadly, as the article states, it’d be political suicide to any Ukrainian leader who implemented it. For Kiev, Minsk II is their Versailles Treaty, humiliation signed during extreme duress, fuel for ultra-nationalists.

As for the latest escalation Washington is now calling on Moscow’s bluff to invade, with loudspeakers, lest it seems even more weak after its Afghan fiasco. That Ukraine is just a pawn among these players, is just a sad consequence of geopolitics.
If a house is going to be sold to a rich idiot who should know it won't last, then I'm mostly in favour of letter them be stupid.

Another thing you have to be careful of: pressure on the sensor can drastically effect readings. This is particularly a problem if you sleep on your sensor.
