You mean all those items stolen all over the world when enslaving and murdering civilians in pretty massive scale?

Pretty horrible sight if you ask me, a shame on British soul and something former colonial countries still keep asking forgiveness for, for very good reasons
Right, but if you can prevent death from each of those causes, you run out of death.

If grandpa's liver is failing and he gets hit by a car, he didn't die of old age. If the deadly car accident is prevented, and then he dies of liver failure, then he didn't die of old age. If his liver is replaced, and he dies of heart failure...

Most people are dying from cancer and cardiovascular issues. If we cured cancer next year, then we would see a huge drop in people dying from old age, at least until the heart failure caught up to them.

Basically, that would introduce latency without changing bandwidth, and the total mortality rate would only be delayed temporarily.
it seems to be a natural law that once a society takes the steps to create a government that "grants" rights to the citizens, the road to a hell is already paved. It is now inevitable that the government will see citizens as their property, and all justice is lost.
The issue with this analysis is that culture isn't genetic. A steady stream of people coming from high birth rate cultures are going to be adopting these modern lower birth rate cultures. Especially if they are intrinsically appealing or if they offer social benefits (e.g. higher education, business opportunities, etc).
The study did model excess deaths, not total deaths.

But to your point (from the study):
> The excess death fraction of total deaths was 0.67% (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.58–0.74%) for heat-related deaths and 5.09% (95% CI 4.64–5.47%) for cold-related deaths. The relative risk of death was 1.057 (95% CI 1.046–1.067%) per 1 °C higher temperature during extreme heat and 1.034 (95% CI 1.028–1.040%) per 1 °C lower temperature during extreme cold.

So of those 1M, it looks like 90%ish were cold-related (though more extreme temps are equally dangerous in both directions).
& to add, some of us rent home, so the car is literally anything where we have some equity (& rest the bank owns).
Are there better natural responses to heat that we see in mammals?

I know sweating isn't perfect, for the reasons you mentioned, but do we see nature evolving any better solutions at a mammalian level?

My armchair understanding is sweating is a natural marvel with nothing else like it seen in creatures as large as us. That it truly is a differentiator between humans and other animals (or mammals at least). Sweating is the foundation of humans ability to engage in long-distance endurance running which is one of our unique features, also called persistence hunting[0]. You can easily draw a line between this sweating and our ability to travel large distances and hunt the way we did, which in turn can be connected to humanity's success as a species on earth.

I don't really use github actions (like, ever), but it's the default setup for a terraform provider I'm working on and the very minute I queue a bunch of jobs; the system goes down. Interesting.
As much as I am for nuclear energy, your question is rather naive. The first mention of CO2 warming was made in the early 1900s and the research was definitive by 1981 [0].

The reality is that there was a coordinated disinformation and obfuscation campaign made by Exxon, Shell, BP, et al. They sacrificed our planets Goldilocks zone for 50 years of corporate profit.

Certainly grab your pitchfork. This is a human atrocity that will soon trump all others. But the ones you should be skewering are sitting in boardrooms right now figuring out how to squeeze the last few dollars from our planet before wet bulb temperatures reach 50C.

I don't buy the argument; I think the world has gotten a lot better. But Ted Kaczynski was/is extremely smart, even if he was a domestic terrorist. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.
I don't know how much nuclear reactors have advanced. But I can understand the fear in the someone's back of their mind: What if something goes wrong?

I see this risk = Fallout x Probability. Even though the proponents argue that the tech is much more safer, the fallout is so huge and generational that its it neutralises the low probability of any accidents.

PS: I am neither for or against the nuclear tech.
Lack of internet was on the seller disclosure, but the buyer assumed it could be easily remedied. As for estimated costs, the buyer was unable to get that information from Comcast directly after “many months” and ultimately needed the city to intervene. So don’t see how it would have been any easier for the seller to obtain this info or appropriate to require it.
It's really dehumanizing to say women "cannot" have an affair for purely physical reasons. Women are people just like men and their motivations are just as complex and diverse as men's.
My daughter got an internship at a research lab this summer - where they have thousands and thousands of research mice and they kill several mice every day. She said CO2 works on adults and therefore that's what they use. But CO2 doesn't work on baby mice and is considered inhumane. Instead they use scissors and cut off the baby mice's heads. It's to be done swiftly so it's like a guillotine. The labs are continually monitored to ensure the animals are stressed as little as possible.
I love Feedbro, but agree it's slightly unfortunate you have to run it in browser. Running Feedbro as standalone would be cool.

The most productive programmers are the ones that make other programmers more productive. Making a tool or library or other piece of reusable infrastructure that increases the productivity of 100 engineers by 10% is 10x productivity.

> It often feels like we as a society have sort of entered into a weird territory with a lot of these liberal changes.

I feel like you could write this sentence at almost any point in modern history.

> The societal structures that have worked in the past, while you may not like them, did work.

Worked for whom exactly? Almost laughable how people from different backgrounds would have a VERY different opinion on this. Basically any minority, whether that be gender, racial, or religious among other oppressed groups.

> Fertility wins in the end,

Wins in what way? The continued existence of the human race? I think we're seeing a slow down in birth rates for a number of reasons, but heres a few big ones amongst my circles:

- anxiety/fear of the present, leaving no time to consider having offspring
- anxiety/fear of the future being enjoyable and/or inhabitable for offspring
- a focus on enjoying the present as opposed to striving for a better tomorrow for offspring

If political philosophies care at all about fertility they better start looking at it holistically and not purely from a breeding standpoint, because otherwise people will wise up to being treated like birth & labor livestock.

Not really. It's a common strategy called "controlling the narrative" and it has been in play since the early days of public relations and propaganda, largely considered to be pioneered by Ivy Lee[1].

Regardless, I only posed it being state-driven as a hypothetical anyways. But state media reporting on the matter does little-to-nothing towards disproving that hypothesis.

Wouldn't it be nice, 2 years into these hiccups, if GitHub could explain why the same problem keeps coming up?

There's a point where it's funny, and we're way past that.
there's never gonna be "enough space" for animals that do not understand the concept of overcrowding and planned parenthood.

That's the point of the experiment: in a food rich environment with no predators and no diseases, without human intervention (or intelligent planning if you prefer) everything is gonna deteriorate to the point of no return.

Nature is all about balance and we humans do nothing to follow that predicament, so if we are not careful and let things go by themselves, we risk of giving birth to hell on Earth.

Take the Yellowstone example.

Yellowstone is not a small and confined space and yet when wolves disappeared, herbivores, moose in particular, started growing in number exponentially, posing a threat to the ecosystem because, with no predators around, young moose could freely walk all over the park and started eating too-young trees, basically preventing them from growing.

Then wolves were re-introduced, and even though it's still unclear if the damages caused by moose can be undone, they at least stopped things from getting worse, cause wolves mainly prey on moose.

"Future technologies must be designed according to methods that take human value and experience seriously enough to be constrained by their limits - such as sanity, dignity, and justice."

This would require an incentive for long-term systems thinking and cooperation.

Turning a profit at the expense of human sanity, dignity and justice is far easier, which is the definition of success today. It's hard to make money without unintentionally causing harm, intentionally doing it however makes it easier. Unless there is an effective oversight, but there rarely is, especially for new markets.

Like Y Combinator here, and many other venture capitalists turning a profit on cryptocurrency scams. They are doing harm, but they can't say no to opportunities, that would just create more incentives for their competitors to say yes. Inflicting a few of the thousand cuts routinely inflicted on society is the government's problem anyway. To be fair it can be trully hard to avoid harm, or even figure out what's the harm, if any. Our world is rather big and complex. I'm just saying that there is a selection for not even trying to, because someone else just wouldn't, and it's a competitive advantage not to.
I feel Mobile CPUs are fast enough from last 5-6 years. Its the battery tech which is lagging.

On Laptop/Server side Qualcomm need to catch up to AMD/Apple.
Indoles in general are common gut metabolites and an indole proprionate sounds like a further metabolic product.

This leads me to believe that trying to increase indole-3-proprionate specifically may be a fruitless journey (pun not intended), and one would be better off by optimizing for a hospitable environment for beneficial microbes in general, for example by cutting out carbs but increasing intake of flavonoids.
Yes it certainly does seem like an opertunity for a specialist company to offer a full service, but aspects like that would usualy be handled for node shrink in colaboration with the node provider. But one aspect will be say for example a microicontoller used for sensitive equipment, the level of certification and validation from goverment/mil certification down to Insurance certification (Lloyds of London have a lot of standard in many feilds that have to be ticked from my experience in the Oil industry alone) that can bury many a product. Heck even your CE/FTC certification is not cheap so any changes,such as node size will see that whole process repeated - hence not all chip makers rush for the latest and greatest node as existing work and proven. Equally some equipment may well see issues upon smaller nodes due to the enviromental factors and smaller nodes more susptable to thinks like radiation in which some exotic space particle would be smaller than the node at larger size but smaller may well start to become an issue. Hence many reasons for legacy nodes still in play and utilised.

May well end up in a decade or two in which suppliers end up having to use China or Russia for production as the only way to get access to the nodes they need, and not like things like that not happened before thinking of how NASA for a while was dependant upon old tried and tested Russian rockets for space launches. Just hope this is not a future problem that is allowed to creep up and hit us all.

Not the parent - it is definitely a better pay than other salaries in the country, but for example in Hungary a junior gets around like 2000 USD (per month) gross (and we have quite huge income tax here as well). Around 2600 USD it would be considered a nice senior salary.

When I decided to move away from self-hosted git ages ago and then from Jenkins to GA two years ago, reliability was a huge factor in my decision because Github, I supposed, would be much better at keeping their infrastructure running than I am at keeping ours.

Turns out the uptime of both our git server and even the Jenkins instance beat GitHub by far and while the former only cost a marginal amount of CPU time on infrastructure I was running anyways, GitHub is a noticeable expense for us.

Of course it still saves me from the panic attacks every time I'm compelled to press the "Update now" button in Jenkins because either I do nothing and get my instance RCEd or I do press the button and who knows what plugin update will break which part of our setup, but while that was a constant fear in my mind, the amount of downtime caused by Jenkins plugin updates was zero whereas what GitHub is doing lately is way, way, way worse than zero.

I'm starting to get frustrated and like I presume many other paying users, I think I'm at a point where I feel like we should get partial refunds of our subscription money given the very spotty uptime all year now.
Apart from biometrics all of these are things you would more or less expect them to collect. Words mentioned in the video and the videos popularity are important for the recommendation algorithm, and the censorship of "age inappropriate content". Location data similarly goes into the recommendation algo. Any social app asks for contacts nowadays (as much as I despise it).

The insidious thing is how the data is used. For example knowing the exact content of each video allows them to filter certain topics and promote others. Knowing your location allows them to use this geopolitically (showing content about the Ukraine war in some places, but not in others).

Whether intentional or unintentional, their recommendation engine infers demographic information. I'm pretty sure TikTok thought for a while that I was gay; videos with reasonably accurate predictions like "if this is recommended to you, you are a male between 25 and 30 who is introverted. You like to start projects but never finish them" were a trend for a while.

All of this gives TikTok and by extension China a great tool to influence opinions and moods in a finely targeted way. Take all the scandals about what Facebook experimented with, and how targeted ads influenced elections and votes, and give that power to one party with no oversight. That's TikTok.
Same boat.

I'm not a vegan, and I try my absolute best to avoid thinking about what we put animals through. It certainly sits in a specific category of intrusive thoughts. The only real analog to this in my mind is being aware of my own mortality; I just avoid that thought and shove it out of my mind. Occasionally my comparatively relaxed life is harshly interrupted by an awareness of these facts and I'm ripped back to these realities for just a short, terrifying moment. Graciously, a distraction is always readily available.

It’s a little bit different, because Meta operates in a much different legal environment. You give up a lot of control of your company to the CCP to operate in China, and if you don’t, you’re forced out of the market.

No, and that is a good thing because AC for whole cities in arid regions is a big part of why we are in this situation in the first place. California is pretty much the illustration of how not to build a country.

Hi! Disclaimer, I'm the co-founder/cto at Stytch[0]. We built Stytch because we went through the pain of building auth both in house and with incumbent players and wanted a better tool for developers building authentication. Stytch is flexible to enable you to build the experience that you want for your users but we do all the heavy lifting when it comes to both authentication and authorization.

We have support for both magic links and google oauth as well as many more options, one of the benefits of going with a provider is that with one integration you'll be able to get more auth products as your auth needs expand and get more complex (ie 2fa with authenticator apps etc). We also handle all of the fun edge cases when it comes to things like email deliverability and ensuring that your magic links end up in your users primary inbox and don't get blocked by spam filters etc.

I'd love to answer any questions you have and help get you up and running with auth so you can get back to focusing on your product!

In the past few years, from zero knowledge to implemented the same auth features including login, registration and reset password etc in past company projects.

> The issue with this analysis is that culture isn't genetic.

I didn't say it is genetic or mean to imply it is.

> A steady stream of people coming from high birth rate cultures are going to be adopting these modern lower birth rate cultures.

Yes. People from high fertility cultures who move and adopt a different cultural norm, usually adopt the same fertility as well. This happens constantly to immigrant populations who move to Western nations. Western nations are sort of population sinks for the rest of the world.
They're lower than the current statistics, but overall births are going down and yet the fertility rate of married women is much higher than the fertility rate of unmarried women. It's a complicated picture.

There are likely lots of cohabiting parents but also lots of families with various levels of paternal involvement.

The statistics obscure more than they show, I think.

You need to redesign the entire circuit. If it is completely standard digital (e.g. no RAM, no Flash, no 3V IO, no ESD structure), then you can likely port it without too much pain. However, you still have to change the entire package/bond pattern, and completely requalify the part with a customer who sees no advantage. Minimum port/design cost $1M and expect mask fees of at least $2M.

So at 30% margins on a $0.33 part, you can expect to break even 30M sales later!
