I'm Brazillian and lived in Rondônia, extreme west of the Amazon. Never heard about oregano tea being good for the intestines, will try it if I ever need again.

Now, don't put so much trust on the "knowledge of the natives". That knowledge is not maintained by centuries because native indians didn't develop writing, so recipes vary a lot even from one city to another; there are different fruits or plants which have the same name in different regions and the same fruit or plant may have different names in different regions. It is also not tested with a large genetic pool since these groups are very small, familiar with little genetic diversity.
Do you make it yourself? What kind of oil do you use? Do you have a link to a recipe? I want to try it! Sounds yummy

I can confirm stuff like that - I'm writing a crawler&indexer-program (prototype in Python, now writing the final version in Rust) and assuming anything while crawling is NOK. I ended up adding URLs to my "to-index"-list by considering only links explicitly mentioned by other websites (or by pages within the same site).
I'd recommend HelpScout instead of Intercom for standard customer support. It's affordable (pricing per agent) and very high quality software without any bullshit. Intercom might have additional features, but it's also very expensive.
I've been playing with the editor and seeing the effects. It's pretty fun but can someone explain to me like I'm 5 and fill me in on what this is ?

BBC is the British broadcasting channel in the UK for me, and their 80/90's graphics were pretty much the same!?

So since Riccitiello left?
The Vietnam war (or the American war as I was corrected in a bar in Hanoi) was the epitome of unintended escalation. One of the early escalators was JFK, who was simultaneously extremely wary of escalation, and is not someone who most people think of as an asshole politician. Your point has some heft but it's a simplistic take.
USA military and CIA had been present in Korea and Vietnam for years, with little fanfare, before those wars really got going. Their roles in Laos, Indonesia, Iran, Nicaragua, etc. were never acknowledged. They are currently present though unacknowledged in dozens of nations, with the hopes of kicking off future wars for the profit of armaments manufacturers. USA "special forces" have been embedded with various more-or-less-official military units in Donbas for years, during which time UN estimates that 14,000 people died in violent military action including more than 3,000 civilians. Over the same time, various American and western European neo-nazis also found their way to Donbas, forming a convenient cover for the "operators".

Americans have been in Ukraine for a long time, and that's not even to mention e.g. Victoria Nuland. This is a stupid argument anyway. Congress has committed to spending Russia's entire annual military budget to fill Ukraine with deadly weapons. That doesn't count the billions we already spent over the last 15 years. A president was impeached because he proposed (without actually doing) a temporary slowdown of the flow of American weapons to Ukraine. Our masters wanted a war, and now they have what they wanted. Very few mammalian Americans want a war, but after twenty years of stupid wars it's clear that the peace we want doesn't matter.

"Red Extreme" heat warning that temperatures might approach 104F.

That's pretty unusual for the UK, to be sure, but it's super weird watching the UK media and government treat this like a mass-casualty event where they're advising people not to go outside and warning that even healthy people will die in large numbers when it happens weekly in large swaths of the US every summer and, other than being unpleasant, is no big deal.

Also, it's super weird that the UK is worried that roads will melt, cars overheat, and railroads cease to operate. Are British roads and cars made to that much lower of a standard? (Every summer has days above 110F in Southern California, and days near 120F in some U.S. cities, and the roads don't generally melt -- though above 115F or so, airports do have trouble with runways sometimes). I've driven through the California high desert on days above 110F, and my car didn't seem to have any trouble running the A/C full blast to keep the inside a vaguely habitable temperature.

That does seem like a neat solution. Does it support user-tasks in workflows (i.e. block until someone clicks a button)?
That static executable will basically contain the whole python interpreter with a huge standard library. Maybe makes sense for a gui app, but I'd avoid installing a whole python interpreter for each of my little cli tools.

Don't forget the startup time overhead of first loading a whole interpreter into memory, then loading a python program into the interpreter.
Supply and demand, like the article said, but maybe on the demand side instead. People may be asking if it's possible to do things in a way that does not require coding at all. Not no-code, more like no-computer. World ran on humans filling out paper forms up until recently.
New one I’ve seen is the inclusive language modal
Thank you for linking to this!

It is super cool that it serializes hash tables and b-trees because that is where serde’s zero copy parsing ends

It seems perfect for my use case, which is putting stuff in a chunk of memory shared between processes

>invitation for everyone to increase tesselation

that ship sailed with the introduction of Gameworks - an Nvidia program that paid game studios to deoptimize games on AMD hardware.

https://techreport.com/review/21404/crysis-2-tessellation-to...

https://wccftech.com/fight-nvidias-gameworks-continues-amd-c...

"Number one: Nvidia Gameworks typically damages the performance on Nvidia hardware as well, which is a bit tragic really. It certainly feels like it’s about reducing the performance, even on high-end graphics cards, so that people have to buy something new.

"That’s the consequence of it, whether it’s intended or not - and I guess I can’t read anyone’s minds so I can’t tell you what their intention is. But the consequence of it is it brings PCs to their knees when it’s unnecessary. And if you look at Crysis 2 in particular, you see that they’re tessellating water that’s not visible to millions of triangles every frame, and they’re tessellating blocks of concrete – essentially large rectangular objects – and generating millions of triangles per frame which are useless."
I'm sure it can, but in the link you provided it definitely did not.

Interesting but Java gets more and more complex in a way that does not make me want to write things in Java.

To expand on my other answer, part of the problem is that Rust's compile time complexity is in large part spent on knowing what code to execute, not just whether the code is valid.

So the compiler will spend some time inferring the types of different variables and what traits those types implement, which is necessary to know which trait methods get called, etc.

Dynamically-typed languages get to skip all this and say "my type is either a number or an object, because everything in the universe is either a number or an object", and methods are selected through dynamic dispatch (usually by storing a ton of function pointers everywhere).

Rust can't just do dynamic typing and skip the compile-time logic, though you can get close by using lots of dyn traits.
The additional shame I suspect you feel about your eating habits, likely leads you to binge eat more however - thats my larger point, it creates a negative feelings cycle that makes the problem worse.

You probably binge eat to plug an emotional or stress hole, its literally a form of self medicating. Thats not something that willpower or blaming yourself can solve.
Dude, it's the second sentence of the first paragraph:

> For my purposes, the Majestic Million dataset felt like the perfect fit as it is ranked by the number of links that point to that domain (as well as taking into account diversity of the origin domains as well).
a good old distributed network of centralized databases, one or more for each entity, that get reconciled at intervals.

the network itself is already decentralized.

interoperability and open protocols > immutable ledger (which is a centralized source of the truth)

philosophically speaking a society where information is stored with no restriction but can be made available to other parties in an open and documented manner is more free than one where the "tables of the law" is one immutable and indisputable blockchain because the computer says so.
At least the UK has the luxury (and downsides) of the breeze from the seas and the ocean, since it's an island. Meanwhile, on continental Europe, most landlocked countries are being cooked alive.

I agree, but still... it feels different this time, somehow.

Maybe because few people had the means to shout everyone else down in the past. When everybody has a printing press or a radio station, it turns out that the noise floor gets really high. Everybody spends more time writing and talking, and less time reading and listening.

We're finding that the ability to boost your signal above the noise floor isn't even vaguely correlated to the merits of the message, the way overcoming resistance from editorial gatekeepers was in earlier times. Freedom of the press used to be the exclusive preserve of those who owned one, and that wasn't right, but now it goes to whoever yells the loudest, and I'm not convinced that's going to work out better for us all in the long run.

Sure hope it does, but early signs aren't inspiring.

Kahneman and his book „Thinking fast and slow“ are totaly overrated. In fact „despite Kahneman's previous contributions to the field of decision making, most of the book's ideas are based on 'scientific literature with shaky foundations'. A general lack of replication in the empirical studies cited in the book was given as a justification.“ Unfortunately you will find that statement only at the end of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thinking,_Fast_and_Slow. It should be stated at the beginning. So many wrong assumptions especially in economics, but also management theory are based on this book. But nothing of is book can be replicated: https://replicationindex.com/2020/12/30/a-meta-scientific-pe... Unfortunately far to few people know about this.
I wonder if people actually do work other than "using" these products all day.
My father still doesn't know how to copy and paste text
Just a small story that should serve as a reality check for me and perhaps others here.

As programmers and technology experts, we realize that most people do not understand machine-learning or other Computer Science things, but might assume that by CURRENT_YEAR working age people generally understand basic computer usage. Wow-oh-wow: no.

I'm currently visiting the parents for a mini-vacation for a couple of weeks. Since I'm the resident expert, my father asked me for some help with a computer task on his Mac. No problem.

In the process of talking him through the issue, I asked him to copy-and-paste some text. He didn't understand what I meant. I'm not talking about not memorizing the keyboard shortcuts, but he was genuinely not understanding what copying and pasting even referred to. He was struggling with the mental concept of selecting and copying text in one program and pasting it for use elsewhere in another program. Walking him through the process (which I'm certain he didn't really understand) took several frustrating minutes. His best understanding of how to transfer text before this was to save a file in one program and try and open it in another program.

My father is not a techie by any means, but he's used a computer daily for recreation at least the last 15 years on both Mac and Windows, managed the household technology stuff, and performed normal light office tasks in the course of his work—using the Internet, typing documents, and printing them out.

I assume very little from an average user, but this is a hell of a reminder that:

* the Least Common Denominator of users still has a minimal understanding of how to use a computer despite actually using it for productive work

* don't understand the capabilities of their system

* feel incredibly frustrated when their UIs change in any way because they work by memorizing how to do tasks, not logical problem solving using their knowledge of the system

* most people still need to be protected from themselves and there's a reason why by default many UIs are dumbed down to what we think is an absurdly basic level
I do a lot of interviews lately, I see the writing on the wall.
Skilled developers understand they have leverage. One developer turned down a 300k job offer, which was the highest I have EVER personally offered, so I reached out to him to ask why.

He told me he'd be happy with 80k remote working in a nice area where he could afford a large house, white picket fence, and have a life with 3 kids. He would not compromise on his quality of life.

A whole generation has gotten screwed and victim blamed for it (https://www.cnbc.com/2022/07/15/millennials-are-to-blame-for...), and the ones with leverage are out for blood.

I can imagine the millenials and zoomers without anything want to just burn the system down.
I read enough of it to perform a basic smell test, yes. And in fact it's pretty easy to spot some of its more obvious shortcomings, as other reviewers have.

Exactly as we would expect to find in the output of ideologically-driven academics working far outside of their own fields.
Seems an entirely unconnected bit?
The language shipped on a computer the BBC released. This should fill in the gap: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBC_Micro
Pretty much all of my non-leaf functions return Result, in application code (or where I can't be bothered to build error types as I go) I'll use anyhow to allow me to coerce pretty much anything into my result type. So unwrap can -- fairly easily -- be replaced by `?`.

I'd still like to be able to agree with the compiler that it can prove that certain error cases don't happen, as with ether an unthinking propagation upwards or an unwrap I'm reliant on my own analysis to assure myself I don't need to explicitly special-case that error. If the compiler is able to dead-code eliminate the unwrap, I'd like to be able to tell the compiler that there's a bug in my code if the unwrap is still in place after optimisation.
the refund policy is one of the reasons I buy games on steam first over other stores, I tend to buy a lot of games for whatever reason and end up refunding 5-6 a year for various reasons after playing under two hours

Microsoft only allots you one or two a year or something which isn't enough considering how misleading game marketing is mixed with the prices
A state is in large part defined by having a monopoly over taxes and a military, neither of which any group within an existing state can ever have. So these network states can at most land somewhere between a political party or an online club. Does Balaji address this?
I got 2k vs 12k, so about 6x. I'm running 165hz at 2560x1440.
You should also include high ranking military officers, many with political ambitions, who put their own aggrandizement or telling their civilian superiors what they wanted to hear ahead of their military duties. I recommend H. R. McMaster's book Dereliction of Duty, which goes into this in great detail.
This has been discussed in startupland as well.

The idea being: founders often come from fairly wealthy circumstances or support structures.

That way, if they fail they can be rescued (~can still move in with mom or dad).

And thus, the wealthy are most at liberty to take risks offering potentially outsized returns without paying the price others might.
I've read articles to this affect as well.

I have social clubs near me that start at 45,000 a year to join. (You're required to spend a lot of money). Men only up until somewhat recently.

Basically golf/tennis and dining for rich folks or people they are trying to impress. Got invited a lot when I would work directly with fortune 100 CEO's.
Was both fun and educational.

Interesting to meet board members of companies I loved / hated.

Paradoxically, pushing a larger body through wind resistance should burn even more calories! The people I knew weren't explicitly trying to lose weight, they were cycling for their cardiovascular health and on that front their doctors were happy. But, yeah, distance cyclists tend to eat their fill.
I’ll go one further. In addition to not watching, My kids have never in their life watched regular tv except visiting someone’s house who does. Those few times they just want to turn it off because it’s “broken and spamy.” “Why does the spam get louder.” “Do they think we care about [thing in ad]” etc.

I was worried they would be more susceptible to ads. Ut it’s the opposite.
The spirit of amateur athleticism was a noble one, which I mean both as praise and critique. There was a real distinction, no different in spirit than that between junior sports and adult sports.

Class privilege was a real thing, sure, and the Jim Thorpe story in fact shows that, by custom, a poor boy could earn some extra money playing in the minors under an assumed name, which Thorpe just didn't know due to his background.

Today, being an amateur tennis player means you've had thousands of hours of professional coaching, there aren't really exceptions, although there's enough charity that exceptionally talented players do get that coaching sometimes.

Back then, it meant you played tennis. This is already long so I'll refrain from talking about the wacky and fake rules around NCAA amateur status; I'll content myself with saying that more change is needed.
A properly configured unbound running locally can be a decent compromise.

Because the FAANG tech companies often have programs that reward top contributors. My guess is the people who judge the contributors have a preference for those who take the company line the most often which just turns those forums into an echo chamber of not completely satisfying responses.

It's an emulation environment for the BBC Micro[0], a popular home computer distributed by the BBC in the early 1980s. There's a long history of /why/ the BBC was involved in producing computers, but the short version is that the BBC wanted to increase computer literacy in the UK and decided the best way of doing that was to create their own machine (partnered with private industry).

Good job, and congrats on the offer!

Recently someone posted a link to someone's personal website that was also a Windows-style desktop environment (built using WASM, I believe). I believe it was under an Ask thread "show your favourite website designs". Does anyone remember the link?

Mostly this. If you want to see exotic animals, you'll be probably more comfortable on a Zoo. Favorite touristic points of Brazil seems to be northeast beach or coldest parts of the south. I was in vacation in Florianopolis, a capital city in the south, in 2019 and every time I said I was from the northeast they asked me: "and why are you wasting your vacation here?"
I’m honestly stunned because I had no idea this issue had been raised, much less addressed.
There was a time when I would have agreed with you but we have now past the point where the average driver can be trusted to drive in a manner that does not unnecessarily endanger the lives of others.
There has been an alarming pattern of public health communication throughout the pandemic: public official (Fauci, WHO official, CDC Director, President, Governor, etc.) makes assertion A about COVID, questioning of assertion A is harshly criticized as anti-science, racist, right wing, wanting to kill grandma . . . Six to twelve months later, the same public health establishment admits not only was assertion A not true, but it was never believed by said establishment.

Most blatant examples:

- Masks are not protective

- The vaccine prevents infection (entire basis for mandates)

- There is no evidence for lab leak

- Natural immunity is not as effective as vaccine immunity

- the virus is not spread via aerosols

Nice to see Liniker being recognized outside of Brazil
You're right, though the effect of that only seems to go about 20 miles inland (which is a fair bit of the UK, to be fair). The other downside to being surrounded by sea is almost guaranteed high humidity which makes the heat far harder work (a la Florida vs Arizona).
Not to worry. When I was young I had no idea about how rotary dial phones worked (still don't, frankly) or FM or AM radio, despite my radar technician flatmates trying to tell me about it. And lots of other things.

But I did learn about lots of other things - for example I can write in assembly language for half a dozen different processors, and I know how to make a Gram stain for diagnosing bacteria. You learn what you need when you need it.
