Good lord. I love Nirvana but the differences between all these mixes are minor and barely noticeable unless you're swapping back and forth. Kurt would hate this shit.
Greeks tend to have higher "normal" cholesterol levels. In other labs I have seen in Greece, they write as the limit 200.

I know of someone with TC around 240 and the doctor didn't prescribe statins. Not a medical advice.
I switched from physics to full stack dev. Granted, some consider that a small leap but I promise I was terrible when I started.

This is basically "just a confidence thing" with a dash of accepting a pay cut.

My advice:

Code on the weekends, see it's fun.

If it's fun take a bootcamp, or better yet, build your own project.

When they ask for your experience, can your self a junior.

And when they ask for your preferred wage, ask for a low number.

Get paid to learn. The market in Canada is desperate for talent.
You can see them pretty much every day if you use twitter enough.

I just looked at google news and there's one right on the front page of my particular feed:

I had a Samsung TV for work related testing that never got connected to the network and it would hang for annoyingly long times whenever you connected an input source because it didn't have a fresh database of signatures to spy on you with.
You aren't implementing innerText, you're implementing textContent. Consider the HTML
a<b>c</b>d<div>e<div>f</div></div>. Using textContent results in "acdef", while innerText results in "acd\ne\nf". Implementing textContent is easy:

function getText(node, returnArray){
const a = Array.prototype.map.call(node.childNodes, e=>e.nodeType==3?e.data:getText(e, true))
return returnArray?a:a.flat(Infinity).join("")
}

Which can be golfed down to

let getText=(n,f=(n,a)=>[].map.call(n.childNodes,e=>e.nodeType==3?e.data:f(e,1)))=>f(n,f).flat(1e333).join("")

InnerText is harder, you have to consider visibility and if the element is block or inline. You can't properly calculate innerText without parsing CSS.
They exist, but there doesn't seem to be a great reason to grab one yet. Companies have added the 6ghz band but not more capacity...so before you may have had 2 5ghz antennas...one for backhaul and one for clients...now you have to choose whether you want backhaul or clients on a particular frequency, and both are suboptimal.

I'd recommend just buying a nice wifi 6 system that puts clients and backhaul both on 5ghz.

I routinely pull 500mbps from a satellite on a wifi 6 mesh network(asus xt8), I don't see much need to upgrade.
Run a pihole on your network, block updates and block ads while still enjoying your apps. Adam Bergman, Vizio Ad peddler, is easily reachable on the internet if you want to tell him how you feel about smart tv's and ads.
Blacklist the MAC.
Same here. Everyone was "happy" and "proud" about our remote performance and now they force us back to the office 50% of the time. Many people seem to see it as a great leap forward, but I don't. One of the company value is supposed to be "independent"...

This week I was supposed to go, not see my kids in the morning, waste 2 hours in the train, expose myself to Covid, just to sit alone in an office and discuss through Teams because the rest of the team was not even there. What the actual f**. I just couldn't go.

I wrote about this and my feeling is still the same: https://medium.com/management-matters/going-back-to-work-no-...
At first I wasn't quite sure what I was looking at -- but wow, this project rocks!

Kaitai is like protobuf, but for binary formats. It's an incredibly clever way to not write n*m-many parsers for each language. You write a spec for your binary format and the Kaitai libraries in each language can then decode (and presumably encode) the payloads. Gif, wav, pdf, zip, fbx, your custom format, whatever.

This web IDE makes it easy to visualize and develop parser specs against actual data.

Absolutely brilliant ideas!
> Sadly it's a logical and inevitable consequence of giving up control over our technology.

Personally i dont think it's 100% certain that all consumerized technical products start abusing their customers.

Personally it feels really early in on this one. The free hand in this product segment is just exploring what it can do what it can get away with. Markets are conversations. I expect this one is not, like you podit, at an end, but rather just beginning. Perhaps this move survives but seems like it'll be hard to keep going, to defend.
Yes, and that's probably due to the sun going out.
I think MusicBrainz did a great job to find some common agreed denominator between all these styles and formats for music metadata. After setting up Funkwhale [1], I went through all my 16000 MP3s and synced those with the MusicBrainz Library, also adding new entries. It went pretty smooth and my library looks much better now. It is also really fun to listen again, when everything is structured and labeled.

(btw., yes, I bought a large percentage and, nowadays, mostly buy on bandcamp [2]).

With the nightlife in Beijing, you could manage! :)
Disagree, but maybe my house isn't as connected as others. Have a 2 node wifi 6 system in a 2200 sq ft home, and even then I wonder why I didn't go single node.

6ghz though will surely make your statement true.

Walter, it’s amazing how often I see you weigh in on economic and political issues on this forum when you have a poor grasp of even the basics. Claiming that privatised healthcare is somehow more efficient in spite of overwhelming real world evidence to the contrary, or that people are capable of meaningfully informed choices in picking a healthcare plan and somehow find it life-enhancing to have to do this, or ignoring the fact that funding it through taxation rather than insurance results in more universal and equitable access, and entirely glossing over adverse selection problems, is just amateur house stuff. You’d get laughed at in a high school classroom with this stuff but here you are trying to talk about it with authority.
Im not sure which of your many comments to respond to here but we certainly have learned that a small part of "junk" DNA (as that term was originally meant) performs useful functions not directly related to protein coding. So the comment you replied to is absolutely accurate.

Of course you are accurate as well: if we subtract the protein coding and the known non-coding but useful bits the rest is almost certainly absolute junk... duplications, bits of retroviruses, etc. But it would be inappropriate to claim we are absolutely certain none of it is useful. Will we find out 50% is useful? Obviously not. But I would rather say "current evidence suggests at least 97% is true junk; we are not likely to find large sequences with hidden uses at this point".
There’s a very profound wisdom from the Bible: a man is always right in his own eyes.

We have an amazing ability to justify things that benefit us. I often wonder how many people in advertising and marketing can justify what they do for a living, whereas I view much of that industry as a blight on society.
Imagine documenting something like this https://www.discogs.com/artist/661099-Filipe-Santos (check out the edit history) where the artist actively sabotages the documentation effort and makes their music unavailable on a whim.

I feel that way sometimes but we do get better. The iops & core counts are really high, it's stunning. Interconnects are far faster & getting wild.

Consumers have been living life under usb3 for a decade & it feels interminable but usb4 should really improve life & possibility again... If only there was a lower speed longer range spec for it, for like 5m. Or if we could get some affordable fiberoptic.

Well if you want me to invest 5-7 hours of my time you'd better give me some assurances as to why I should do that.

Quit. Take an alternative job immediately paying tens of thousands of dollars more with better work/life balance, without having to be exposed to administration, politics, and a majority of parents who are either disinterested or counterproductive in their child’s education.

To do otherwise is to suffer, and eventually quit anyway (although likely more tired and jaded, and having earned much less than they would’ve otherwise in aggregate).

Parents and administrators would have to collectively agree on improving the situation drastically as well as put a significant effort forth for teachers to be empowered to teach effectively, and that is incredibly unlikely to occur based on all available evidence.

In short, the system is broken and it is outside of the control of teachers to fix it.

Bose changed (some of?) their home speakers to "require" you to use their app to set them up or use Spotify/etc, where you use to be able to just cast directly to them. It effectively turned smart speakers into dumb bluetooth speakers unless you did it all from inside their app. I don't want to use their app, and I didn't need to before, and while it was outside warranty the store had no problems refunding me.

I was also one of the people who bought a Samsung TV that didn't have ads, then suddenly had ads. That also got me an instant refund with no questions.

In both cases I printed out a copy of the product website where they published the changed features (eg the changelog or PR release or whatever I could find) and I also printed off a couple forums/media-articles talking about the changes. The stores didn't question it or have any issues with refunding me, I guess they just then file with the manufacturer for their own refund.
> Well, the body has a whole mechanism for manufacturing cholesterol, so it must be good for something. It seems obvious that there's some level at which low cholesterol must cause death.

Agreed.

> A U-shaped cholesterol-mortality curve is pretty much guaranteed to exist.

Yes, this is a necessary consequence of the first observation. Mortality will go to 100% if cholesterol is too low or too high.

> The only question is where the minimum is.

But I don't think this is right. You can calculate a mortality-by-cholesterol-level curve for the population, and it will have a minimum somewhere. But it doesn't follow that it would be good for you, even in a sense restricted to all-cause mortality, if you moved your personal cholesterol level closer to the minimum value on that curve. Most people in the population aren't like you.

Higher level languages are based on lower level languages.
aka Have to manually do more things in lower level language to get the 'built-in' features of the higher level language.

C is a system/software engineering language, not a data science/"I don't do/use low level OS/HARDWARE stuff"/someone else needs to write the higher level stuff I want to use" language. So, using C as a scripting language, implies implimenting a scripting language in C first.
(vs. https://hackernoon.com/javascript-compilation-epoch-ebfb7b5b... )

C is basically assembler language macros.

Thre are many types of binary encodings.
Binary format consists of sequence of 0's & 1's, any order,
usualy arranged in groups of 8 0/1's.

Standards are used to define how a binary format encoding is interpreted/used/defined. UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32, ASCII, etc.

notes on https://hikari.noyu.me/blog/2022-04-01-javascript-is-a-safer...

"... JavaScript has exactly one integer size supported by its integer operations: 32bits"
Umm... on a 64bit machine, wouldn't this rehash the x86/dos/windows 80's/90's 8/16/32 etc issues?
number is 64 bits & bigint goes beyond 64bits.
JavaScript can no longer safely represent integers.

Bit operations are implemented as a cast to an integral type followed by a cast back to a double representation. It is therefore not a good idea to use bit-level operations in Javascript.

C language is not the same a C math library!
Can check for NaN via appropriate C math library function.

C base type is integer. All other types are based off inter type, so can bittwiddle the base type to change endianness.
Is there an ASN.1 java script defined using C?

https://developer.ibm.com/articles/au-endianc/ && https://commandcenter.blogspot.com/2012/04/byte-order-fallac... So, if C code isn't endian neutral, and endian-ness matters, better do the order check.

Can explicity define type width in C via bit enumeration without switching to assembler.

Struct layout is not endianness!
And one can explicity specify ordering of variables in a C struc (vs. default of letting the compiler decide and/or writting the equivalent assembler code)

Removing integer inodes with javascript is "safer" than using C? aka how does javascript impliment a hardware static electricity protection device?

High-level scripting languages are written in C. So, how can C functions that the high level scripting language uses be slower than the same C functions the high level script language bases it's functions on?

Certainly higher level programming language by default takes care of details behind the scenes which would otherwise have to explicitly write out in C. (per difference between high / low level language)

C was built for speed. If want similar checks/guardrails that javascript provides, use/add/program the correct C tool/feature (aka compile time, run timchecks, lint tools, aditional code that someone wrote in C for the higher-level language)

Scripting languages were setup so can focuse on specific domain aspects/tasks and not how to impliment the language aspects. (typical emphasis is ease of use and immediate execution )

It works for all technology, including phones, home appliances, everything. If it has a feature advertised/included on launch, and then they remove or change that feature enough that it no longer works "as advertised", you get an instant refund, even if outside the warranty.

We also get longer warranties than most other countries. Even if a brand says you only get a 1 year warranty, our consumer protection laws say a warranty has to apply for "as long as seems reasonable", so for most technology that's 2 years.
I love what your cousin did, but there’s a big difference between that and beekeeping. Not even the same types of bees. The bees kept for honey / wax production and pollination are more like livestock than “nature.”
I can't find any mention of whether they're controlling for (potentially) increased life expectancy. I understand life expectancy probably didn't change that much in 1.5 decades, but even a small difference could skew this kind of thing quite a bit.

Edit: they do at least acknowledge it. It's an increase of almost a whole year on average. That seems significant to me, and doesn't seem addressed in the paper.

> While there were increases in both the oldest and youngest age, the average age of decedents with ADRD increased from 85.9 years in 2004 to 86.7 years in 2017 owing to a greater number of oldest old identified in claims.
The usa way. Thanks I do not live in a place where money is the only god. What a sad dream. In Usa you are as free as your wallet gets you.
With something as complex as this, it really makes you wonder how far in advance this was planned.

Also curious to know how long viasat has been compromised for and what else the attackers were doing while this was developed.
Not in small claims court. At least not in my jurisdiction. You can seek monetary damages in (presumably) any jurisdiction but not necessarily return of property.
On the other hand though, if you build a product that you'd like to use yourself then you might just discover an untapped niche.

If it turns out not to be an untapped niche though, or not a good one... ugh. ;)
> I am glad vim has the option to place the swap files where you want them, and make them unique (by setting 'directory' to end with "//").

i am glad as well. not every program supports --exclude/--except.

i used to keep swapfiles in a single global directory, but i've instead started to try to stash my swapfiles "near" the code:

alias vi='vim --cmd "$(x="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null)"; [ "x$x" != x/ ] && mkdir -p "$x/.git/_vim" 2>/dev/null && echo "set dir=$x/.git/_vim//")"'

this seems to have some advantages: for example, i can do a find / -name '*.swp' to figure out what i was working on when most of the files are readme.md

(i should note, real ed doesn't create ed.hup files; that's a weird gnuism)

> For vim and ed and every other console program, I would run them inside screen(1) to avoid losing work due to network troubles, and network disconnects is usually where I get my SIGHUP.

i don't like screen very much, even though i do continue to use it (owing more to its ubiquity and utility); it's full of all kinds of questionable ui decisions, and so many features i use so infrequently i need to constantly be re-reading the manual. i think if you have learned it and liked it okay, but all i ever want is terminal mobility, and i get a much nicer experience out of two tools:

- mosh: https://mosh.org/

- reptyr: https://github.com/nelhage/reptyr

using mosh means i don't get SIGHUP, and if i lose my local display, i can open another mosh, reptr my old session (it's still there!) and keep on hacking.
In the West we do not get up to 15 year prison sentences for criticising NATO. We merely get in an argument.

> The liberal strategy to silence anyone opposing NATO and the escalation of war

The US president, Joe Biden, is opposing war or NATO intervention in Ukraine. He specifically kept the US Navy out of the Black Sea to avoid escalation because he believes it would trigger WW3. Nobody is being silenced.

> the complex geopolitical situation

It's not a complex geopolitical situation. It is a revanchard war, a one man's attempt and ambition to recreate the USSR and for Russia to be "taken seriously" again. He's the one obsessed with a NATO plot against Russia, when in fact there is no NATO plot. Eastern European nations have decided to join NATO themselves, after being part of the Warsaw Pact. Poland and Romania have decided themselves to host NATO defensive installations. They could have refused, but they did not. Why? Because in Eastern Europe, Russia is seen not as a friend, but as a threat. The recent war in Ukraine is further evidence that Russia is indeed a threat to Europe as a whole.

>Kurt was really unhappy with some of the sounds

I think I read somewhere that P.J. Harvey wasn't happy with the way "Rid of Me" came out - but I thought it was incredible and nothing afterwards really compares.
I think Toshiba tried to do this with replaceable processor modules. It really has limited consumer value and only lets them simplify production for different markets and upgrades with module swaps. All at the expense of more packaging costs to have extra connectors and housings or access panels.
C++ developers tend to be very conservative. I still meet shops that genuinely are discussing if they should use c++98 or try this new modern thing c++11. Lately that’s getting more and more rare fortunately.

Even if your team is more progressive, there is likely a huge mountain of still active legacy code that nobody wants to rewrite. There a more incremental approach is still the way to go.

Otherwise yes, for a greenfield project, rust is likely superior in many other ways. Not just in this area of borrowing but also build, syntax and lots of other features.
The 'micro' http/tcp/ip stacks on microcontrollers tend to be based on lwIP, which in the default configuration can only handle a single connection at a time.

That means if someone connects to your server but then sends their GET request one byte at a time very slowly, nobody else can connect while they do so.

That's fine for toy projects, but not really acceptable performance even for a consumer grade product - despite the fact this lwIP stack ships on lots of IoT devices.
They certainly don't. Most of those buttons are for changing the settings on the car and are used rather infrequently.
They’ll use a mesh network to find a cheap path out. Amazon and Apple already have their own and it’s not going to be long before one starts leasing time.
If your goal is actually “pursue scientific advances” rather than “put food on the table”, “make sure I get a job when I graduate” or “make my PI look good”, then doing it at 61 makes perfect sense.

This is absolutely nothing new. Ask any french algerian or other french Africans and they will tell you all about the racism, and xenophobia that exists in France and how their "secular" policies are really just a way to make minorities invisible.
