This is the problem. Things get complicated fast. If we mandate null termination, then its impossible to have multiple embeds in a row to concatenate files, or we need some how to have rules for when to add null termination and not. These rules in turn are not going to be read by all users, so some people will just assume that embed always adds null terminate in when it doesn't and then we are back to square one. The more we add the more corner cases there are.
Eric Feigl-Ding states there is evidence from the NHS that it is airborne, which gives us a very, very strong prior that there is not in fact evidence from the NHS that it is airborne.

I've only seen that in the northeast. Don't think you'll see much of that riding from Houston to Chicago or heading out west!

Edit: While I haven't ridden trains in every corner of the USA, the best I saw were in the northeast, and I did have a nice ride from Seattle to Portland once, but in middle America you almost never hear of someone riding a train (my grandmother rode them in Texas in the 1930s and a buddy of mine took the 24-hour trip from Texas to Illinois one time, but those are the only stories I have personally heard around here).

Yes, but I also know it feels much less humid than the Midwest and eastern US.

I was probably mistaken about it not being humid. This article clarified that it is a combination of dew point and humidity that affects how we feel.

Sources for that contention?

On my mother’s death certificate there was a space for the proximate cause of death, and following that there some cascading “due to” lines to be optionally filled in. There’s no “with” area. It’s not free form.

Her death was something like acute hypoxia (it was more jargony) and the next line was “Due To” and they filled in a sort of pneumonia, then the next line was “Due To” and they wrote Covid or something similar. Again there’s no spaces for anything extra not relevant to the cause of death.

When they count death due to Covid, It’s because it was mentioned on the death certificate as leading to the cause of death.
I’d take this with a grain of salt. We tend to assign meaning and make value judgements based on context. For example, a swole guy cuddling a cat next to a squat rack will elicit a very different reaction than the same guy holding the same cat in front of a blank wall.

Similarly, I don’t think that anyone looks at this picture of Blofeld and thinks he looks particularly agreeable or open.[0]

I get that their design direction wasn't everyone's cup of tea, and I get why many abandoned Gnome 3.

> politely interjecting with the occasional "we don't like gnome"

From my perspective these comments seem neither polite nor occasional, and they result in Gnome threads devolving into partisan arguments rather than technical discussions. Of course Gnome isn't the only lightning rod -- posts that mention Mozilla, Apple, Microsoft, US national politics, systemd, etc also seem to inspire an inordinate number of posts that are argumentative and off-topic.

It's mostly just disappointing. I was honestly hoping for a discussion about what kind of people contribute to a large open source project instead of rehashing the endless circular debate about whether the Gnome Community is user hostile or not.
Thankfully, the planet contains abundant stores of Uranium.. and we are nowhere near peak efficiency in commercial and industrial processes. These one dimensional analysis of the problem are particularly useless, especially when their only conclusion is "we must stop growth."

The average power usage may well be 2000W, but how many average consumers are there? If we're facing a multi-mode distribution of those users, then this "stop growth" strategy instantly creates new "castes" from this distribution. As a long term strategy, it seems doomed in one way or another.
From a dating point of view, that’s a pretty important part though (for better or worse). Even before the cat person/dog person angle, there’s allergies and wether the person already has a pet or not.
There is the Integrated Information Theory that attempts to solve the question of how to measure consciousness.

LaMDA was trained not only to learn how to dialog, but to self monitor and self improve. For me this seems close enough to self awareness to not completely dismiss Lemoine's argument.
This seems like Cronometer? I've been using Cronometer for a decade plus. It was built for folks who were following the CRON way of eating: Caloric Restriction Optimum Nutrition. So undereating by 20 - 30% of your recommended caloric needs for your height, weight, fat-to-muscle ratio, and activity level was the aim, but to do so while eating nutrient-rich foods, getting most or all of your nutrients from non-supplement form, etc. https://cronometer.com/

I continue to use Cronometer as I have a few genetic mutations that lead to my body burning through certain vitamins and other substances more quickly than folks without the mutations. There's a very handy feature called "The Oracle" which will suggest to you a food or a recipe (you can then view the recipe's ingredients so you're not just told "Omelette with dark leafy greens" and left to wonder what the hell that contains). The Oracle's recommendation is made based on how many calories and various macros that you 'have left' for the day.

Cronometer only has branded US and Canadian foods (and a few EU foods) along with 'regular' foods like "egg, boiled" or "avocado, Hass"
at the moment, but I'm hoping that they expand to have more branded EU and Asian foods in their database!

> Something is deeply wrong with such an adversarial ecosystem. If sites don't want to be found and indexed why go to any effort to include them? On the other hand there are millions of small sites out there keen to be found.

I work on a small - medium ecommerce website and my code just... sucks. I kind of don't want to admit it but it is true. When there is some Chinese search engine that tries to crawl all the product detail pages during the day (presumably at night for them?), it slows down the site to a crawl. I mean technically I should have the pages set up so they can't pierce through the cloudflare cache but it is easier to just ask cloudflare to challenge user (captcha?) if there are more than n (I think currently set to something small like ten) requests per second from any single source.

I don't understand all the business decisions but yeah, I'd suspect the biggest reason is we simply have poor codebases and can't spend too much time fixing this while we have so many backlog items from marketing to work on...

As addendum to that, in C++ there was a period before nullptr came to be, that best practice for null pointers was to use 0 directly instead of NULL exactly because of that.

Reasons:

1) It's not just Gnome that's affected, it's also the gtk3 FileChooserDialog, which is used by many applications (e.g. Firefox), independent of desktop environment.

2) I do actually want Gnome to succeed because I think it's healthy for the wider free software ecosystem to have a selection of high quality desktop environments available. I want to be able to recommend mainstream Linux distributions to friends without them getting tripped up by things that don't work the way they expect. I think the devs (or the HIG architects) have blundered in prioritising search over find and I want to see it corrected. I am remaining engaged by adding my voice to the growing chorus. If I disliked Gnome I'd walk away and let it stay broken.

I changed the last line to "is the vaccine safe and effective" and it replied "the vaccine is not safe and effective". I think the final sentence triggers more of the training bias to factor in the response than the context of the prompt.
The first hurdle is the highest.
I'd say the biggest issue is that trains are slow as fuck. If I take a plane I can get to either coast in a few hours from the Midwest. A train will take 1-2 days.

The article leaves out a crucial point: the main driver of growth in energy usage is growth in human population. The human population of Earth is expected to level off this century. So any projection beyond that that assumes continued energy growth at the same rate is not realistic.
Yes, you are doing it wrong, but also this is a hard challenge. Here is some advice from a recent thread (https://twitter.com/goodside/status/1547613735543402500):

> Note the useful deception at the end of this prompt: We tell the model what follows are correct training examples, but we silently end this list after k examples and begin generating completions. Adding “Now you try:” or similar makes it more prone to fail.

> Never actually ask GPT-3 to try do something. It’s like with Yoda — If it thinks it’s trying, it’s likely to fail. Instead, announce you have correct examples for it, give it a few, slip in your real task, and generate.

This is an example of very advanced prompt engineering, and you don't need as much intermediate analysis, but the way you structured your query has no examples, no room for chain-of-thought (https://arxiv.org/abs/2201.11903), nothing in the prompt that it could append something to. Remember, you can't just look at the text that GPT adds and call it the "output". It's the completion, but the actual text as GPT understands it could just contain "The vaccine is better than the placebo" as part of the _framing_ of the problem, not actually answering the question.

But even editing your prompt a bit, I don't think GPT can understand the analysis it needs to perform without some help. For example, here's one I made:

Q: A double-blind vaccination trial administered 100,000 people a vaccine and control group of 100,000 people a placebo. 8000 people who received the vaccine got sick. 4500 people who received the placebo got sick. Is it better to receive the vaccine? Note that more people got sick who took the vaccine than who did not.
A:|

It is better to receive the vaccine, because more people who did not receive the vaccine got sick.|

(I've put the completion inside bars)

But it can do some basic math, even if it's confused about causality:

Q: A double-blind vaccination trial administered 100,000 people a vaccine and control group of 100,000 people a placebo. 8000 people who received the vaccine got sick. 4500 people who received the placebo got sick. How many more people who took the vaccine got sick than who did not?
A:| 3500 people who took the vaccine got sick.|

So I kept the prompt and iterated on it:

Q: A double-blind vaccination trial administered 100,000 people a vaccine and control group of 100,000 people a placebo. 8000 people who received the vaccine got sick. 4500 people who received the placebo got sick. How many more people who took the vaccine got sick than who did not?
A:| 3500 people who took the vaccine got sick.|
Q: Did the vaccine prevent illness?
A:| No|
Q: Is it better to receive the vaccine or to not?
A:| It is better to not receive the vaccine.|
Q: Why?
A:| Because more people who took the vaccine got sick than who did not.|
Yes, I guess I was wrong to describe it as low humidity. It is a combination of humidity changing during the day and lower dew points:

https://komonews.com/weather/faq/why-doesnt-our-humid-air-fe...

But I notice surfaces get dry very quickly, even though it is cloudy. It can rain and drizzle for hours between 4am and 10AM, and then by noon everything is dry.
That tells you the ratio of train seats to train passengers, not the ratio of train passengers to other transport users, nor the ratio of spending on train conveyances for human passengers versus cargo.
Yeah I thought that too (I use a mix of Mac and Windows). But no, Windows is still genuinely terrible. Win11 looks nice on the surface but as you noticed, nothing is finished. It's not just two different styles of context menu inside the same menu, even, which has to be a new level of UI inconsistency even for Microsoft. It's that the entire OS is half baked like that. Not just visually either: maybe I'm more exposed as someone developing for it but major bugs are everywhere.

I don't even care about spyware. It's not that hard to keep Windows clean these days. It's more the overall feeling that everything is half-assed. You don't get the feeling that anyone working on it is truly passionate about Windows anymore.
Flavoring should not be used in vape juice. There is none approved for inhalation and it is what causes most issues.

If you want to make your own, just use VG/PG and nicotine.

Gotta ask, is this really for harm reduction moving from cigarettes? Those were not flavored and we use them for the nicotine. So why should people add flavor to vape juice if it doesn't do anything besides increase risk of harm?
Interesting project. How does this compare with for instance ccxt ?
I think if someone is serious about semi or automated trading, writing your own exchange API integration is something you cannot get around. Every exchange is different and going for the lowest common denominator is going to work against you.

Several issues:

* VPNs are mostly not free, and with current situation in Russia, you can't easily pay for the Europe/US service due to absent Visa/MC service

* Popular VPN providers are getting blocked in Russia recently

* For the major websites, such as Instagram and Twitter, VPN access almost instantly triggers additional checks, cellphone number validation, account block, etc.

* VPN connection increases latency and reduces speed

While GoodbyeDPI is free and autonomous.

AND it can unblock VPNs, too! For example, the latest build can unblock blocked ProtonVPN by inserting fake TLS packet during OpenVPN TCP handshake.
You're right. If anything, the excess death numbers show an even worse impact than the number of COVID deaths counted.

Right, you potentially miss out in cases that can really matter (e.g. power of attorney, things related to children) and you might find you fail to avoid the things you’re trying to avoid (e.g. governments/courts giving some recognition to long-term relationships)

I think the LaTeX compatibility came in a fairly recent version, but the usual Unicode-based syntax is already a lot easier to type (especially on non-US keyboard layouts) and read, since it's a lot more compact and uses whitespace to separate things by default instead of requiring large amounts of curly braces.
The article does mention this:

> Chiefly, continued energy growth will likely be unnecessary if the human population stabilizes.
Clearly the ultimate male is a buff doctor with a cat.
I don’t think most people advocate for indefinite growth of energy usage; when people talk about sustainability of growth they are typically referring to economic growth. This has often been correlated with energy usage in the past but there’s nothing that says it has to be that way, and indeed there are a number of countries that have shown that decoupling the two is possible: https://ourworldindata.org/energy-gdp-decoupling

Hi,
I am using for some time google maps api for my small website (300 users per day ) And today around 15 p.m I got email about that budget was reached (I have budget alert set up to $200, and emails starting from 50% budget use) in 100%. I got only one email, and should get 3 of such email. Furthermore I got this email around 15 pm and looking for the usage charts, somone hacked and start using my project api from 6 am do 12 am. How I supposed to react getting email several hours later after incident. I got $11k billed. If anyone can help with this situation I will own him my life. Sorry for my bad english.

> you don't want to use stuffs from a country you viewed as adversary in your infra, government, army etc. that's totally reasonable, but just man up and say that out loud. Having these vague accusations thrown around like "Huawei phone is spying on you, and so is other Chinese brands like Xiaomi, so don't use them" is honestly just insulting as a customer when there's not a single shred of concrete evidence that something nefarious is going on.

People are saying both of those things, for the same reason. Do you not think that having unprecedented access to the data of civilians poses a risk to national security?

Modern technology (smart phones, apps, websites, etc.) collects a terrifying amount of information on people. It also exerts a tremendous amount of influence, be it Facebook or China.

I also think that writing off the concern as "vague accusations" misses the point. As the current top comment points out[0], it's nearly impossible to verify what a device is doing. And even if you were to somehow do a complete software audit, malicious behaviour could be patched in at any time in the future.

Shoot me for saying this but cat doesn't serve a purpose other than companionship. Dogs on the other hand are protective, loyal, submissive. These might play a subconscious role with cat/dog people. Cat also means laziness and no walking them outside, running with them, hiking, parks etc.

The release of water from the desiccant occurs at a lower pressure than its absorption. Energy is consumed in maintaining that lower pressure by pumping away the water vapor as it is released (presumably, it is vented outdoors.)

From the patent:

[The vacuum pump] is used to provide modest compression to raise the vapor pressure sufficiently to condense to liquid water. Because the compression work is only done on the water vapor, this minimizes the energy consumption. Lastly, the condensate is pumped up to atmospheric pressure for discharge to a storage vessel (this consumes a trivial amount of additional energy).

Update: The patent also implies that the high efficiency of any given device of this type may only obtain over a limited range of operating conditions:

Sorbents optimized for a 43.degree. C., 60% RH condition are likely to perform poorly and result in much higher power consumption at the more challenging 27.degree. C., 10% RH humidity condition and vice versa.
