> leaving out the possibility viral proteins are finding their way into youch children's intestines through other means... Such as vaccinated breastfeeding women.

I struggle to find where it suggests that vaccinated breastfeeding women have somehow contaminated toddlers?

On contrary, it seems to me that it implies a secondary infection with an adenovirus to be the cause:

(citation)

"Following infection with SARS-CoV-2 virus, viral reservoirs have been reported and could over time lead to repeated super-antigen mediated immune cell activation as shown in Multisystem infammatory syndrome, MIS-C.

If such viral reservoirs are present and a child is subsequently infected with AdV, this superantigen-mediated effect could be much more pronounced and potentially give rise to immunopatthology."

And at the moment it's just an hypothesis.
A bit more, if the servers also have to handle media.
It's still free, and most people really don't care that Facebook or Google is using their 'behaviour' to show them ads. It's really just not that important to most people.
To add some additional context, the closed beta users knew from the beginning that the product would be paid after the closed beta. Some even asked about the price, and I gave them a ballpark figure, and all of the responses to the figure were positive. However, once I made the official price announcement, a few people were pretty angry (ironically, some were people who asked about the price and were ok with it at the time).

So I'm not necessarily moving from a free product to a paid product. It's from a paid product that was subsidized, to a paid product that is not subsidized. But to your point, I think the closed beta ran too long and shifted their psychology about the cost of the product.
I’m used to seeing for(;;) in C code but I disagree that it’s conceptually similar - the opposite actually. The for() syntax is already inconsistent with three expressions being interpreted as statement;guard-expression;statement.

There’s no other occasion I can think of where an expression becomes vacuously true by being omitted. If it were conceptually coherent you’d write for(;true;). I guess maybe the reason they made C accept for(;;) but not while() is because while() might confuse a compiler by looking like a function call.
I'm sorry, but when somebody tells you "we will ship you 7000 miles away to fight in a different continent" and you accept, you share at least some part of the responsibility.

There would be no wars without greedy politicians, but there would be no wars without soldiers too.

My understanding is that Alder Lake P-cores have the highest single-thread performance currently available, but M1 Firestorm cores are close behind, and so is AMD Zen 3. Performance varies by benchmark, and each of them gets some wins depending on the application. See here for SPEC2006 single-thread totals: https://www.anandtech.com/bench/CPU-2020/2797
Bad-actors and geo-engineering, we can't handle even one of them..
Anyone working on even a medium sized C++ project needs a very high end machine in order to compile. For large projects, 32 core work stations aren't crazy at all. Try building something like Firefox or Chromium on a quad core and you will see what I mean. The cost of the workstation is tiny compared to the cost of the engineer and you really don't want them to be waiting around for half their day (quite literally) because of a miserly equipment budget.
They are not. If you check out Wikipedia, Intel 7 (or for that matter Intel 10nm) is very comparable to TSMC 7nm in parameters (transistor density etc.).

TSMC 5nm is better, but AMD is not there yet.
Can't speak for the guy you're replying to, but I regularly saturate my 16-core CPU as a web developer. I often work on environments that need 20+ services locally virtualized to properly simulate the environment they'll be used in.
>TikTok hashtag analysis toolset

The tool helps to download posts and videos from TikTok for a given set of hashtags over a period of time.

Users can create a growing database of posts for specific hashtags which can then be used for further hashtag analysis.

It uses the tiktok-scraper Node package to download the posts and videos.

It's worth making it explicit that many home computing tasks are highly parrallelizable because the work is actually completely separate programs.

> I think it's worth taking a step back and realizing that this is subjective

On an individual level it is almost impossible to argue about design. A friend might love their uncomfortable, rainbow colored chairs for various reasons that are both beyond mine and, frankly, their grasp.

Statistically however it becomes much clearer. Apple does something right with their product design. There is not a single job any of Apples products accomplishes, that you could not get done for less by buying from someone else. And yet, people don't.

We could then argue that this has nothing to do with the design. It's just the specs, it's the marketing, it's the golden cage that is some apple products. I can not dismiss any of those with publicly available data, but, again, the inversion offers insight: Imagine a iPhone that was made out of a cheap material you dislike and painted in multiple colors that made your eyes water. The worst possible product design, whatever that is to you.

There is certainly an image of a product that you would be pretty certain wouldn't sell because of its design. Someone might say "Oh, I don't know, it's all subjective" but even though you just have your instincts, you are certain it is not, without having to try. As soon as you imagine the look and touch, you know it's just not good and most people wouldn't enjoy using it. And you would be right.

It's somewhat harder to come up with analogous example for websites, mostly because data is even less in the because websites are usually not the product, but I hope it's not too much in this discussion to take the leap and infer that there is no reason to assume it would be any different.

> use their privacy as a currency for "free" stuff

There are other currencies. Some of these get mixed up with privacy.

Time is a common currency. Flat pack furniture is subsidised by
passing the assembly costs to the end user - mostly as time.

Reputation, image or likeness is a way to pay. Remember the
hairdresser with a window full of free modelling service photographs
of smiling clients with great hair?

Endorsement is another way to pay with "freelance marketing". Cosmetic
and kitchen products (tupperware) often had elaborate endorsement
chains or pyramid schemes.

Knowledge has long been a "hidden" currency in Free software like
Linux. You need to know what you're doing.

In all cases some friction arises when the customer doesn't know in
advance that payment in one or more "hidden" currencies is required.
The vendors mistake is to try hiding it in order to advertise a
product as "free". Announcing it up front is actually better,
otherwise the customer reacts by seeing the sale as a scam of some
kind.

Loss of privacy is a just one particularly egregious type of hidden
currency scam. It's high time it should be treated by customers and
regulators exactly the same as other explicit extractions.
This breaks when your indices wrap around the integer limit. I'm not saying this can't be worked around but you end up with something much more complicated than just head==tail. It's a memory/runtime trade-off that I think is worth wasting one slot for.
Cheaper but deadlier doesn't sound like a very good tradeoff when talking about infants.
Yes. I was trying to criticize that Barbie dolls hold up an unrealistic beauty standard while trying to be inclusive about disabilities, color or gender.
An easy way to exclude this hypothesis would be to check the ages. You’d see some kind of hard drop past ~1.5 years. Skimming source 2, it seems like they’re talking about a much wider range of ages, but still it’s be worth breaking down the data in detail.
I actually disagree. instanceof is a fast operation on the JVM and can make code easier to read than equivalent OOP (less hopping around). However, you must be careful that all cases are covered since Java lacks exhaustive pattern matching.
I agree it doesn't make sense. Yet, it's what they did...

You could implement a crappy union type in Java with a type-safe API, but if you want to program in that style you are really better off using an ML or Scala.
Why would I want to retract it?

As for principles: there are two aspects here. One is that people have the fundamental right to decide; usually there are peaceful ways of achieving this, like voting, but when they fail or don’t exist - like in Russia - then there are more violent options. And no, of course it doesn’t apply to both sides: it only applies to people side, not governments’.

The second is that there is a war going on, and every option that hurts Russian army means fewer people getting killed. Insurgency would be a really convenient method of ending this war.
The terminal (or rather terminal emulation) is a mistake, people should stop glorifying it. It has no inherent value, beyond being able to run historical software that was bound to a terminal. Most of all one should stop confusing the terminal and the shell, which remains an interesting concept.
Yeah so European employers talk of "gross" pay.
I agree with many of your points, but re: employees frankly internal systems at Google are pretty heavily audited and locked down not just in regards to PII but in regards to any queries against e.g. log data that try to narrow data down to small result sets. I can't speak to these ML data sets, but I was at Google 2011-2021 and in my time I believe I applied for and got log data access twice and the restrictions were serious, and the whole thing is heavily audited.
I don't know what you are ranting about but the term "crowdsourcing" is exactly what this tool is created to do. Don't use it if you don't want to.
The marginal cost isn't zero unfortunately. Each user is actually expensive, and their cost is unbounded (I send hundreds to thousands of SMS messages per user, per month, on their behalf). They've only gotten more expensive as they've used the service, because they're sending more messages to more people. There's theoretically no limit to how much they could cost me. So I just can't do the grandfather idea.

I'm not willing to spend the effort to build a custom billing system and pricing model just to grandfather these users in.
among unique features of Foot, which one would you call the most useful?
Isn't this really dependent on the implementation? Language servers (at least typescript in VScode last I checked) still provided all of the features you mention even when there is a blatant syntax error. The only lost information is from within the section of code that can't be parsed due to the error.
I see. Yet, this particular entry only contains tiny amounts of well known information. I feel like this product line has been well covered for months now.

Oh well.
Interesting, thanks for sharing.

A few things stand out (spoilers of course) - the Chairman of Deutsche Bank had an armoured convoy with two vehicles with bodyguards. It makes sense seeing that someone was trying to kill him, but outside of that context it seems a lot. Most European politicians, including heads of state and government, have less today.

Second, he bled to death. I wonder what circumstances led to this, was the car too badly mangled and nobody could come to his aid? It's not something that happens instantaneously, i think, so there's some time to react. But maybe the blood loss couldn't be stopped ( severed legs, is there something that could be done? Would a tourniquet help?). No idea

Big "one study says" energy in most of the points here. I also think it would be more honest to write the percentage of people who chose neither of the chocolates in the same size as the other numbers.
I don't know if that Intel software was only about keyboard and mouse but KDEConnect does much more than that. I'm using it with my GNOME laptop and my Android phones and tablet to send files from one device to another one, open browser tabs usually from phone to desktop and occasionally to ring my phone from the desktop when I don't find it. Keyboard and mouse, almost never.

Edit: it also mutes the audio of the laptop when I make or receive a call on the phone.
That's one thing I could have done better. They did know that it would eventually be paid, but I only gave the ballpark figure to those who asked, not everyone.
As of now, the linked forum thread contains zero research
Meh, to me it's indeed a product of our times. Someone came to us with the solution to all (frontend) problems - our unhappiness - and then you find out it's even more complex than what came before so we're working even harder for this new master. [1] I like React on a 10 line project, I loathe it on a 100k line project, the overengineering, the npm dance, the hundred of dependencies that are a gust of wind away from breaking the illusion of a coherent and working system. Now we just have wait for the solution to the React problem.

Sorry, this came out more depressing than I originally intended.

I think the last Great War made people from that generation into real responsible adults. Which resulted in a great generation of politicians until about the end of the millennium. One has only to look at Jens Stoltenberg to see the utter failure that this new generation of politicians is. Immature, self-righteous, arrogant, warmongers, lacking a real sense of responsibility and respect for human life. Perhaps another Great War might do all of us good.
I understand where you're coming from. But as an Iraqi who have lived through the "war" and having several family members and close friends who were killed in the war (all civilians), I can't help but consider the objectivity in naming here as insensitive to the half-million Iraqis who were killed in the war. Not to mention destabilizing the middle east forever.

For a desktop or mobile processor this might make sense, but many hosting providers sell dedicated hardware with desktop processors to be used in a server environment. (E.g. Hetzner https://www.hetzner.com/dedicated-rootserver/ex100)

So the provider can save energy and make sense of this, but customers won't notice the energy savings in their pocket and they only notice that they can only use 8 cores.

When I tested this a few months ago under Linux every request of our server application would land on a different CPU leading to funny performance characteristics. Even Ubuntu 22.4 does not seem to have the kernel included 5.16+ that fully supports this CPU (https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=adl-linu...)

As we use the JVM the only interesting use case I can imagine would be to assign the slower efficiency cores for the garbage collector.
One suggestion, it's not just how much you eat but what you eat and when.

When dieting people generally want to loose weight from fat and not muscle.

Try to delay or skip breakfast if you can. It gives your body a longer overnight window for blood sugar to fall and start using fat stores to compensate.

Then try some low intensity exercise whilst you're in that pre-breakfast fasted state.

It's very important to keep the intensity low because you can only get so much energy from fat at a given time.

At higher intensities, in the absence of carbs, your body will break down protein i.e. muscle, for energy and you want to try to minimise this.

Give yourself some protein immediately afterwards to compensate for the loss as you can't totally avoid it. In the window just after exercise you should be able to absorb protein more efficiently.

When you want to do high intensity exercise make sure you have enough carbs to power that intensity. In cycling, we have the amusing phrase "avoiding the bonk".

The "bonk" being the point where you've used all your muscle glycogen stores and can't replace them. You generally slow right down, vision gets a bit blury and you get emotional as your body eats itself.

Everyone ends up doing it once but no one wants to do it twice. So eat carbs when you need to.
Also rather interesting that Vladimir Putin is thought to have been involved as the RAF handler, if those sources are veritable.
Why is the _Atomic qualifier on the actual data array here required? Shouldn't it be part of the atomic qualifiers on the index read/write operations to make sure those are not reordered and the memory is actually valid? Given array elements could be > 64bit in size I guess it won't be to make the access actually atomic? Is it another hint to the compiler not to reorder things? Not super familiar with those C qualifiers, and therefore curious.

And is the acquire ordering on push/pop and release on commit the right thing?
Both, since one is a part of the other. The way I get it, the major asymmetry between the two cases is that the US invasion of Iraq was the initial phase of the Iraq war (which had already ended), whereas the Russian invasion of Ukraine is the terminal (and current) phase of the Russo-Ukrainian war (which hasn't ended yet).

So if you're talking about these things today, it makes perfect sense to talk about the invasion in progress as it's the current event. If you bring up the Russo-Ukrainian war in a conversation, it's unclear about what part of the events since 2014 you're talking about, since presumably if you were talking about the current events, you'd be more specific. If you talk about the Iraq War, there can be no confusion with current events since it ended a decade ago.

Agreed, that’s the way I see it. I’m not at all convinced that Zuckerberg would have been as successful if he hadn’t chanced upon the Facebook idea, (which history clearly shows wasn’t even 100% his). He hasn’t demonstrated any success independent of this initial idea.
Yeah I tried that, but being a small shop, I just can't afford to match the salaries of the bigger companies, and after a year (of mostly training) they get poached by a company that can pay 20-30k more than my little bootstrapped startup can :(
Get an old petrol car, convert it to run on propane. Now you're burning stuff that gets flared off as waste gas from making plastics and fertilisers, and emitting only carbon dioxide and water. No carbon monoxide, no sulphur oxides, no nitrogen oxides, no unburnt HC, no particulates. You're still emitting greenhouse gases, but you're extracting useful work from them instead of just warming up the atmosphere.

The reason why they run warehouse forklifts on propane is because you don't die if you breathe the fumes.

The only downside is you need to find somewhere to put the tank, and that usually means giving up your spare wheel well. There's no good reason why you couldn't fit a tiny little petrol tank and use some of the old tank's space for LPG though.
My constant fear with TikTok is not whether or not you can train it, but whether you will realize when it has managed to train you.
I talked about linux recompiles because sometimes you do need the cores; not arguing. But that's the long tail and many devs don't. I'm not against blowing cash if needed, but really it's about asking if there are more efficient ways. I guess we agree.
It seems that the regulatory system is broken and I don't know how to fix it other than to remove the barriers of entry to this industry.

Four manufacturers, consisting of 89% of the nations supply, have so much influence over a regulatory agency insofar that they can write their own rules. Four manufacturers are able to shape the competitive landscape because the government has deemed their voices vital.
I would say that a router that doesn't support url patterns, query parameters or state is basically useless for anything other than small static sites that in my personal opinion shouldn't have clientside routing.

This is a nice demonstration of how routers can work for people that are curious, but I would have a lot of concerns about it as production-worthy, especially because you're manually firing browser native events during periods that people generally wouldn't expect them to fire.

I'm saying this as someone that had to write a full clientside routing system for a bespoke web app - routing is very hard and full of edge cases.
