Different approaches just like for prophylactic vaccines, in some cases it's just like an old-school vaccine where dead cells or protein antigen is presented, but yeah cancer vaccines are typically therapeutic rather than prophylactic.

Lol. When I read the title I immediately jumped to the (silly) assumption that they replaced the doors with open mesh screen doors. Had a real hard time guessing why!
The Phoenix framework does this for forms. It requires a whole system built around a type called a Changeset that describes input parameters, their validity, and how to modify a struct to reflect the valid changes. In practice this ends up tightly coupled to the database layer for simplity.
Some unique searchable term would be great. As other replies point out, .net, c#, dotnet, and csharp are all collisions with old documentation.

In 1984, when Neuromancer was published, TV was analog and inbetween channels you got static snow. Gibson had to mean that. A grey/white overcast sky.
Everything else is over-thinking.

I love Neuromancer but the irony is how badly cyberpunk or indeed any sci-fi has predicted the future, the absence of smartphones being the most obvious example.
The original wok has round bottom because the Chinese at the time was poor and it allowed them to use less oil to cook as it pools easily
Very cool! I love using GitHub repos and gists for managing my personal notes/code snippets, and currently use GistPad as an editor-level virtual file system (for VS Code). But having an OS-level equivalent is _super_ useful.

Any plans to add support for gists to Hubfs?

I don’t think that the author’s suggestion was meant to enforce correctness or virtue, but rather to provide a means for your friends to nudge you out of extreme behaviors.

Now, if one’s friends have opinions that the rest of us find to be terrible, then maybe it’d be better for that person to be able to drift away easier. But I think the thesis here is that most of us aren’t at the extremes / aren’t in bubbles mostly comprised of extremists, and a private-hairy-eyeball would perhaps help many of us from radicalizing our dialogue.
Much of "induced demand" will be for synthesizing hydrogen and hydrocarbons, which then compete with mined sources, absorb otherwise unused peak capacity, and provide back-up storage.

I'm confused about what corporate newspeak you're referring to.

Isn't this the sentiment and euphemism trotted out when referring to the "immigrant work ethic" across most cultures and countries?

In terms of "sickening" -- as a child it was drilled into my head that my parents and other (usually similarly immigrant) families worked incredibly hard so that they could provide a better life for their children, with the implicit expectation that I might do the same for my own some day.
I was bored a few months ago and opened up my samsung tv to see if I could unhook the wifi antennas. Turns out there wasn't actually any in there but I was able to desolder the wifi chip. It was a small separate board mounted by 8 or so pins off the motherboard that I had to use low temp solder on.

TV still works (minus the streaming services). If you try to open the network settings the screen just shows a loading icon indefinitely.

There's not much Trudeau could do.

And although I don't like his foreign policy posture in general - he did do something hugely ballsy:

Trudeau actually said publicly that nations ought to form a coalition to work against China's antagonism.

This is a 'big deal' because it's actually what needs to happen - and - China is hugely sensitive and retaliatory about such things.

China very effectively uses their central control to divide and conquer - politicians, business leaders, NGOs around the world are afraid of their wrath.

For Trudeau to say this, my gosh, I can't even believe he did.

That said, he and Canada do not have the power to lead that initiative. It might take a Putin-like moment, which maybe has arrived.

Feckless, simply political leaders (all of them) around the world would have to get on board, and the US would have be very down with it. I fear a guy like Trump as president would probably ruin it for a variety of reasons.

Or it could be done indirectly as a new form WTO, or like special trade partnership - the TPP would have been helpful. Or a new forum without Chinese tentacles, a bit like the WTO but with somewhat different objectives.

As far as a 'Canadian' travelling in China, I wouldn't worry about it. It's a big place. It's authoritarian but most people have little to worry about.
Gists are just repos under the hood, it should work natively.
Great little tool, just curious why you would buy several domains to host these tiny single page tools?

Does SEO really reward this more than simply using pathnames on a single domain?
Evidence please. This is a huge accusation to make. I find this difficult to believe as surely for military deployment of commercial drones step #1 is disconnect it from any outside network and disable phone-home.
I highly recommend reading the book. Suburbia was made more expensive by design through zoning (high minimum lot sizes etc) to keep out PoC. Many of these zoning rules are still in place, which is contributing to wealth inequality, and the current housing “shortage” — which is mostly artificial through restrictive zoning.

One of the largest indicators of educational attainment is family wealth, and guess where much of that wealth comes from? Housing.

What you’re describing is a symptom of the larger problems brought on by racist policies this book describes in detail.
You sound like you have some interesting stories to tell too.

>VS Code is way too limited for most .Net projects.

I've been forcing myself to use VS Code for my last few C# projects and it's actually quite usable once you get used to the quirks and limitations. The biggest issues:

1) You really need to understand the dotnet CLI tools or you're going to be in for a world of hurt

2) Omnisharp craps the bed way too often. Restarting it from the command palette fixes 99% of the issues though.

3) You need to know the ins and outs of launch.json and task.json in VS Code if you want to do anything more complicated than build and attach. Full VS is much easier to work with here.
Not at all, plutonium is essentially safe enough to eat. Fissile isotopes require free neutrons to undergo fission. The dangerous components of radioactive waste are the fission products. When I break apart a large nucleus in fission, I get random configurations of protons and neutrons as a result. These rnadom configurations are very likely to themselves be unstable.

> YouTube's downvotes, invisible though they now are, can at least influence the recommender algorithm.

YouTube has this feature, but the information it signals is now hidden from the public. The hiding of dislikes have essentially nullified the disapproving glares of the surrounding audience. I'm wondering what the ultimate effects on viewership will be, and the effects on the algorithm might not be in the favor of viewers.

A theory I have is that the lack of dislikes could make potential viewers more anxious that they could be stepping into misinformation at any time and have no easy (even if unreliable) way of checking veracity, so they choose to engage with less content overall.

I have also heard that if someone dislikes a video after watching it all the way through, it still counts them as "engaged" and doesn't negatively impact the channel's exposure. That would mean that a viewer could be mislead into thinking that a dislike means "nobody should watch this", whereas the effect is actually the opposite for the platform's algorithm.

I would really like to see hard data on this from a YouTube channel with significant viewership, detailing how the view count and engagement have changed since dislikes were hidden. If YouTube claims that dislikes don't influence viewership, there should at least be evidence that it is so.
If NATO won't, then it's worthless. Also, even if USA gets cold feet, there's at least one nuclear armed country in Europe that can potentially get conquered by Russia down the line, and so would be more willing to act.
Is a non-profit-based press necessarily a better thing? I'm not entirely convinced that FOSS-like press is the better alternative -- open source has its own fair share of problems.

When it comes to low-quality journalism today, I notice that most (if not all) of the notorious cases follow a pattern where the shttier the news the cheaper it is. Could it be that journalistic quality is proportional to the costs the reader has to pay?

If so, rather than seeking a news source untainted by monetary interests, wouldn't it be more productive to seek costly news sources with individual interests you are clearly aware of?

Can you reliably block DoH? I guess if you can figure out the DoH endpoint someone is using you can block that.

On 443 blocking: Doesn't that defeat the purpose of having a "smart" streaming tv. If you are willing to blanket deny 443 you might as well just block the whole address and turn it into a dumb tv.

And on that note. I have set up unsecured wifi access points before and seen the neighborhood samsung tvs eagerly use it to send their nefarious spyware payload.
For those interested in such things, I found this interesting thread [1] with lots of brand names to look into, although no easy answers.

Looking at Vollrath's line, their 59300 Mirage Cadet hob at $350 has only 20 power settings, and the 59500P Mirage Pro at $680 has 100 levels (but with not-great reviews...).

"not more than 1 or 2 GB" is a lot for just some occasional sensor data. (~20-50kByte/minute) Many "IoT" targeting providers I've seen specialize their cheaper offerings more on a lot lower rates.

Yeah good point! Though I was also thinking about the ability to easily create/edit/delete gists, by means of file system operations. For example, it would be pretty cool if you could create a directory in some “gists” mount point, and have it transparently create a gist for it. Then, as you add/edit/delete files in that directory, those changes are reflected in the gist’s repo.
> Those who refer to themselves as Cantonese do not feel superior

People who call themselves cantonese and not chinese are mostly from Hong Kong. People in Hong Kong always thought of themselves as superior to mainland Chinese and not just that they openly discriminated against them and darker skin people from south asia many of whom hold Hong Kong passport.

If you want to talk about regional differences like Newyorker or Californian then it does exist in China today where Shanghainese consider themselves at top and mostly disliked by Beijinger or HongKonger and others.

Efforts for unification of China started in Qin empire (221–206 BC) [0], which includes language standardisation and still a work in progress given there are still large number of dialects and ethnic groups in China. Lucky for China many of its historical culture remains along with language, cannot say the same for native Americans, whose language is not even part of official languages in North or South America.

Interesting detective work. I really wonder how in this modern era people still write in a language that's so easy to screw up. I started writing C in late 1984 but have zero desire to ever even see it again. Today I do Swift, but if I were writing an OS Rust makes way more sense that C (which I hear is coming in Linux). Debugging broken C code seemed to often came down to tripping through memory not yours because you miss counted something. In my commercial memory allocator in the 90's I had a lot of features to catch such over/under/mis-writes, but it seems better to have the language not even let you screw up in this way, rather than try to catch it in a runtime test.
Interesting, I've had opposite experiences. In fact last time I went into a chase bank the teller refused to help me but "offered" to help me download chase app and do what I was trying to do in the app. Meanwhile I've gone into BECU a few times and they've always been able to help.

Do you mind if I ask what BECU can't do in a branch? I'm genuinely curious because your experience seems so different from mine.
The fact that other countries build reactors en masse in 5 years, tells us it is possible.

I think it's a little of both. The TV market is amazingly competitive, so it's not uncommon to find sales that are at or near cost. I suspect the reason there are so many players still in the game is because the monetary value of ads and data aggregation is really high.

Yeah often the more marketing dollars spent to hype something as AI/ML the less likely it is to be AI/ML - the real applications just speak for themselves in their own utility label or no.
I'm not sure what identity or propaganda or bias I'm part of, so I humbly accept there may be things I don't know I don't know.

But maybe if remotely applicable, an optimistic view can be: that some of those geeks, some of the times care about seeing progress happen, rather than the means.
There are many, and large, very well documented re-education camps where Uyghur people are placed for little or no reason beyond their ethnicity.

Xianjing is an ultra police state, with some cities having police stations every few hundred meters, identity checks, absolute media controls, total propaganda.

Don't even try cover it up, defend it, or try to make some kind of argument based in moral ambiguity i.e. 'racism in the US' which is not remotely reproaching the level of oppression.
Rushing maintenance costs more, and nuke operating cost is already radically more than renewables + storage.
Almost certainly this is a 'little bit of a, little bit of b' type situation, right?

At least in terms of the actual display parts. The smart TV probably has some processing capabilities that are incomparably better than what you'd get in a monitor. This is, of course, used to display ads. However, the ads are necessary to subsidize the cost of the powerful SOC... wait, why do we need the SOC again?
Most of the years skipped though was red tape, bureaucratic slog, fundraising, clinical trial participant recruiting, and having a high enough absolute risk of infection in the population that it was not long at all to have a significant difference in effect between treatment arms.

It probably helps that there's now a well develiped framework for mRNA and adenovirus vector vaccine approval, but ultimately any new antigen could certainly be unsafe and future candidates are going to require every bit as much testing and won't get most of the expeditiory benefits the first generation of COVID vaccines experienced.
Ahahaha that clip.
Chinese nationalists used that clip (among others) to show that US only friendly to you when you are unequal or incomparable to the US. When of course China is rising US reacted by showing its zero-sum mentality instead.

P.S. Xi wasn't the paramount leader yet back in 2011.
Note though that humanitarian aid (i.e. aid that's strictly focused on relief towards disaster zones) is generally harder and plausibly gets a lot less bang for the buck than efficiently targeted health- and development-aid. The latter also tends to get a lot less attention, which means even small-scale donors have opportunities to make a huge long-term difference if they direct their funds wisely.

The charity evaluators I'm aware of have pointed out that trying to evaluate the effectiveness of causes like disaster relief is extremely hard, despite how popular that cause is in general.
And I was downvoted for asking the question.
And have no redunancy whatseoever, and if this is like most nuclear plants have no need to quickly spin up or down in response to load changes, and probably the math is done by averaging power usage, so only if you can somehow shift a ton of power usage away from prime time.

But it is a lot of power.
Off-topic, but can you check the booking.com thread again? Or perhaps give me your contact information?
> no other renewables have delivered.

These nuclear plants haven't delivered. Meanwhile, renewables have become cheap and mainstream, and their market keeps improving constantly.

They should but do they? I hear it's not going so well in their new project in the UK either.
I'm using ASP.Net Core for a couple personal projects for the first time, and it's pretty decent. I'm using nginx as a proxy, and I'm able to develop and test everything on Windows, and publish directly to a Linux test server. I have a lot to learn, especially for handling some web requests at a lower level, but I've been pretty impressed so far.
I'm assuming a couple things here, but

1. isn't a steering wheel the only plausible failsafe control for somebody supervising these experimental machines? Not sure what other control interface would be better in life-or-death instants/moments, plus any driver can carry over their preexisting skills in that situation. If better emergency controls than steering wheels exist, fine, I guess.

2. Isn't the question not

safety(autonomous vehicle) > safety(human driver)

but rather

safety(autonomous vehicle + human control fail-safe) > safety(autonomous vehicle alone)

Just don't understand why, on the face of it, the law is being changed in a way that I guess to me personally implies trials without common-sense-interface human intervention controls is legal?
Ok but please nobody ever actually do this. Holy smokes, my laptop fans are trying to fly away.

> ...the reality is that the Chinese government cares little for storing said data long-term and uses it primarily in criminal cases.

I don't doubt this at all. The problem is what the CPC considers criminal.

> Xinjiang and Tibet are two exceptions to this which I won’t dive deep into.

If you're going to gloss over these examples of where we know there are totally egregious uses of technology to infringe on people's civil liberties, and human rights, then what meaningful discussion is actually left to be had?

> When I was still a student at Stanford, I once lost an internship opportunity because a “traffic violation” - biking at night without a bike light - showed up on my background check. In all fairness, I consider it to be extremely easy to stay off China’s social credit “blacklist” - just be reasonable and avoid breaking the law.

I somehow doubt this is true. Unless he's talking about some totally different kind of 'background check'. I've had numerous background checks, and in most countries they only cover criminal history. They don't cover your history of civil offenses. In many countries even relatively serious traffic offenses are dealt with as civil offenses. Let alone what he describes.

Also, "just be reasonable". Just don't be one of the targeted minorities either, I guess? Just don't play too many videogames; Or play videogames they don't like; Or browse the free press; The list goes on...

This really reads like propaganda. If you told me this was written by someone who grew up in China, and just moved to America. I would totally believe you.
