> We assessed trace metal contamination in backyard chickens and their eggs from garden soils across 55 Sydney homes. We also explored other possible sources of contamination such as animal drinking water and chicken feed.

I’m not surprised this would be the case with chickens foraging yards in cities. The title should probably reflect that as I doubt this would be the case in a less urban environment.
Was it something like this guy’s performance?

Not sure what you are arguing when you say methane “goes away”. It does not disappear, it reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere to become becomes carbon dioxide and water.

these platforms wanted what their "free tier" customers were publishing, so they could become a source worth paying for. Now that they have gotten reputation and interest they've forgotten what brought it / no longer care to pay the price for the meat of their attraction.

Takes like these make no sense. They assume some kind of lack of intelligence among people at SpaceX. As if they don't know how economics work. Rather than assuming stupidity, maybe you should rethink your premise?

There is. If an e-commerce provider got publicity for a data leak revealing unencrypted credit card number, unhashed passwords, and email addresses, it is definitely bad publicity, because its a negative story about a core feature of the company.

So seeing how the CEO of a marketing company is so out of touch with reality, and created a PR disaster for his company, it is in no way good publicity.
Well, it's probably both, feeding one another.

I always understood "Buy vs Build" as "buying software is cheaper than building it yourself". In the case of NPM, using most of the third-party modules out there (buying) is more expensive than writing the code yourself (building).
- Only 3 clinics in the state, all 2 hours away
- Only 1 clinic performs abortion at 20 weeks
- Requires a 24 hour wait period by law
- Requires parental consent under 18
- Between 16-20 weeks, costs $2500-$5000

These are all pretty significant barriers for anyone without resources, especially a teen trying to hide her pregnancy.
Correlative associations don't mean nothing, or at least I can't imagine why that would be the case. Could you explain a bit more?
This is an interesting question. In my experience, Tripadvisor used to be 'the review' place. It seemed impossible to overtake them, since a review aggregator needs some critical mass of reviews to even get started. However, in the last few years, I have found Google Maps more useful for reviews - looks like the critical mass has shifted. They were able to take advantage of the fact that it is easy and natural to check out the reviews of a place while looking it up on the map.

Now, however, I worry that Google will try to monetize the maps more and more in ways that are hostile to the user. They have already started showing ad-sponsored restaurants/locations on the maps, last I checked. Reviews are so critical to many businesses (particularly restaurants), it seems important for maps and reviews to be run by a user-friendly entity, ideally something like OSM.

Providing such a service is expensive, however. The fact that OSM does not have a decent Android app even is telling (Osmand is laggy and barely usable; Organic maps is nice, but is not a replacement for Google maps).

So we are stuck in the situation we are in, and I am not sure what a good solution would be.
In the second world war the japanese acted unequivocally as absolute monsters. It is not an atrocity that they were nuked and it is not an atrocity that they were nuked twice. If anything, it should have happened far earlier.
Every $BIG_BANK still uses humongous Excel spreadsheets and xll add-ins for the heavy lifting. It is no longer a right of passage to learn arcane techniques for calling C, C++, or even Fortran from Excel. There are several good libraries to make that easy, including one I wrote: https://github.com/xlladdins/xll.

Only the ancient Excel C SDK allows you to get a pointer to 2-dimensional arrays of doubles in Excel. Every other API requires the data to be copied out and copied back in again.
The ookla results are misleading so they're optics. Starlink speeds are completely non-uniform. Some areas get 300 mbps or even higher. Some are dropping down below 50 mpbs.
The reason for that is that the adapter is not really grounded, but due to EMC requirements there has to be some AC path to ground. This is done by connecting the output ground to midpoint of input EMC filter and thus the output ground is weakly capacitively coupled to half of the line voltage.

Most higher powered laptop power bricks have three prong plug for exactly this reason.
Oops, how embarrassing.

Just to add, There are bigger competitors in the space like Bettercloud and other. Going upmarket will be a problem for you guys because these companies have already acquired orgs that will have a larger ACV. Problem is real though. Also, when an org starts growing, a dedicated IT team is hired to manage these roles, entitlements, value stream, networking etc. That means, you have a small window when the org is not too small and not too big probably Series A to C (100-500 people org), implies the TAM might be small. Food for thought.
To add, cash is not neutral, it is tied to a particular state. It is a US centric view to say that USD cash is the base layer, rather than the EUR or GBP.

Correlation doesn't equal causation. Plenty of things are correlated that have nothing to do with each other.

I agree with your second statement but your first is a bit ambigous.

Methane is a much more potent GHG than Carbon (about 8-30x), and is a big chunk of the emissions (about 20%).

In fact after 20 years of being worse than carbon dioxide, it mostly turns into carbon dioxide and then hangs around for millenia, meaning it is categorically worse.

I've been introspective in my thoughts and extroverted in my stories off late. While some aspects of this story might seem anti - white from the way it's phrased, generalisation wasn't my intention. A valid discussion however would be the role of individual behaviours on the perception of a community or even the nation as a whole.
Sure it’s user hostile; but at this point it’s a “newsletter popup” level of user hostile; most businesses are doing it and you can reasonably stop assuming that you’ll be able to consume for free without distractions.

(Again, I’m not talking about targeting an audience where open source projects are the majority, but about a more general scenario.)
Two types of BJW (general and personal) are investigated in this study: higher general BJW was linked to more dishonest behavior and there was no significant relationship between personal BJW and levels of dishonesty.

General BJW: refers to the belief that the world is a just place in general, where all people normally get what they deserve, are treated fairly, and will be compensated for experienced injustices.

Personal BJW: refers to the belief that oneself will be treated fairly and that one’s own life is just (Dalbert, 2009; Hafer and Sutton, 2016), which people normally endorse more strongly than the general belief (Dalbert, 1999; Hafer and Sutton, 2016). Furthermore, personal BJW can in particular be seen as an expression of social desirability (Alves and Correia, 2010) so that people deliberately give high ratings of their levels of personal BJW to distinguish themselves from others. Beyond that, they believe that stronger personal BJW conveys specific images of being likable, competent, and successful.

All in all, general BJW is often related to harsh responses to other people (e.g., disadvantaged individuals or groups) and derogation of victims, which can be seen as a negative or maladaptive side-effect of BJW, whereas, in contrast personal BJW is rather linked to subjective well-being or interpersonal trust, which seems to be a positive or adaptive consequence of a high BJW

The unexpected result was that people with high personal BJW weren't significantly more just than people with no/or little such belief.

People with higher general BJW expectedly have it easier to justify their own dishonest behavior (e.g. "it doesn't matter what I do now justice will be served in the great scheme of things").

In my career, I've met a single executive that I feel would not stab me in my face to further their own career (assuming it won't be found out or they could blame my stabbing on someone else).

I think you are wrong.

"Most executives arn't awful" - true. They are sociopathic.
I've played a few play 2 earn games. In my opinion the fun is not in playing the game as intended. Crypto is a highly open and composable ecosystem. The real fun is trying to figure out how to game the game. If you're the type of guy who goes to Dave and busters and tries to figure out how the machines work so you can maximize your extracted value... you might like play 2 earn games.
And everything that is caused by something is also correlated, it just requires more time and research to figure it out.

I'm not a "serious cyclist", I just cycle on bike trails - but a chain link tool and a couple of spare links is just miniscule. If I need to make that fix when I'm in the countryside 15 miles away from my car then not having that option just isn't sensible.
I can image my own VM, but I don't necessarily want to image my own VM, especially when I'm in something of a rush or I just want something vanilla.

This is the big appeal of e.g. AWS Linux. If I want a VM I can get one in about three clicks and 60 seconds. Sure, it won't be as custom-configured as I want it, but it's an over-generalisation to say that if you can't image a VM you shouldn't use one. Plenty of dev folk out there expert in Ruby/Java/whatever that wouldn't know where to start. I can't do even basic mechanics, does that mean I shouldn't be allowed to drive?
I'd like to provide my anecdotal experience with the just-world worldview.

During a short period, I experienced a few events outside my control that shook my sense of security. One was a family member becoming ill, and the other was war.

I was in distress: my world-view at the time was implicitly built around justice, and it could not account for what was happening.

Over a few months, I found comfort in a different world-view: that justice is a fiction. That brought me so much comfort that it seemed almost like joy. This is my current world-view.

A more elaborate description of this world-view is that morality, justice, caring, altruism, and all the other good things, only have an effect in-so-far as they have an effect, if that makes sense. No more, no less. They're tools, constructs and behaviours, and, on their own, without context, they are meaningless. This is harder to formulate that I expected.

I have noticed that with this mindset, I have become more selfish, less considerate. On the plus side, I have become calmer and more level-headed.

I now also find it easier to sympathize with both "perpetrators" of injustice, as well as with "victims" of injustice. Before, I sympathized more with the victims, and tended to dismiss the aggressors. Now, I don't feel like there's a qualitative difference between the two, to put it harshly.

I'm not sure what to make of this yet. My new, "selfish" mindset is definitely an adaptation to injustices I perceived, and might be a regression. But, also, it might be that I have discarded a less-than-useful concept of justice from my mind, and now that I don't identify with "victims" anymore, I have to build up another foundation for cooperative behaviour.
Some people are awful. I had a CTO that literally hired me to be the fall guy for some things he implemented that went poorly (before I was hired). I wasn't even involved in those projects and he tried to get me to take responsibility for the fallout. I'm still at the company, he isn't!

There's a balance to be had for sure. If you bring in some module to a project it comes with costs of its own. That's not often well understood
Startups grow by giving users unlimited free access, only to start charging for that access once they've grown big enough. Such users should expect companies to revoke the free access. Such companies should expect bad press for doing so.
100% correct. You are extremely lucky to get one good executive at a company nevermind several.

This is how I go about my projects. I can't say I'm at peace with this approach though. I feel like context switching makes it that I won't finish anything during my life time.

Anyways, documenting projects for yourself is very important. Treat your future self as best as you can. Think about the problems your future self my encounter.

Indeed, we're aware of Bettercloud and others. But that's the point, they're focusing on the enterprise market.
When we worked in our startups before we couldn't use solutions like Bettercloud as they were just not affordable (especially when you need to upgrade all your tools to the highest plan) or didn't even talk to us when we don't bring them 100k per year.

We want to help startups and scaleups, basically focusing on the SMB market. These customers don't have good solutions as of now.

Brooks wrote a retrospective on it 9 years later, _"No Silver Bullet" Refired_, which appears as a chapter in the 20th anniversary edition of _The Mythical Man-Month_. Of course that is still 25 years ago now, so perhaps we should have a retrospective of the retrospective :-)

Of course it depends, for me timeboxing works really well. Each morning I set up my to-do list, between X and Y time of the day, for each task I want to achieve. Then I follow that list. Even if I don't want to do the thing that I'm avoiding, I'll schedule 30 minutes for it and at least look at it.

Of course life gets in the way. People who rearrange meetings at the last minute or worse, call me out of the blue or set up meetings with 10 minutes notice really boil my piss (if you'll excuse the expression) as it forces me to rearrange my day. But generally speaking this approach has worked for me for years.
This reminded me of a recent post about using cute error messages to enhance the user experience. I feel like many of the arguments translate here as well (more expressive "error messages", texbook empathy vs real empathy...), so I'm linking the discussion post:

It's possible to talk about a problem without having any solution for it. It's actually how engineers are taught to approach problems.
That doesn't mean that correlation means nothing though. It might mean something, or it might not. Correlation studies can give pointers as to where to concentrate more research efforts. That's valuable because money doesn't grow on trees and research costs money.
That example would be similar to using as the crow flies for distances when driving on roads.

So, really, you could just use FreeCiv code similar to Civ2 or Civ3 and change a few things. The setting and interludes were completely different but the gameplay isn’t too different.
Real estate is not the medium of exchange. And the answer there is to build more real estate and have high taxes on any property that isn't a primary residence.

There's "rich people" buying houses, which are investment funds that buy property to rent - that is still availalbe on the market and isn't decreasing the supply of housing.

Rich people buying homes for personal use can't have an appreciable effect on pricing. You couldn't afford a billionaire's eighth home in whatever city even if it were available for sale anyway.
Also that "the consensus bit" isn't a small thing that you just tack on to an existing system for very little cost. That bit turns something really efficient and widely applicable like git, merkle trees, etc. into a vastly more complicated and inefficient system.
Reminds me of a comment I once read in some medical-related embedded software which governed the use of a heart sensor:

// If we get here, the user has died. Terminate and reboot ..
> I'm doing well because I deserve it

... and therefore I behave in unethical ways. It's not my fault, it's destiny.

Sonic, the little ISP in the Bay Area has been wiring up symmetrical Fiber for around $40/month since 2016 or so. And they're profitable with great service. They're also in the process of upgrading to 10G/10G. Google should think about acquiring them and use their experience.
I can't tell if the internet has exposed narcissists or created them, or maybe both.
Is there a similar resource for golang? One that goes over things you need when developing for a cloud native app, for example.

People who believe those actions were justified are not "evil" in the sense they want to do evil things for the sake of it. I think, as a complete outsider to US politics, they're just genuinely thinking they're the good guys fighting against the truly evil ones, the ones who are not respecting democracy (I think they believe the election was stolen, right?)... a good person may feel it's their duty to fight by all means necessary for democracy or whatever system they believe religiously to be the "right" one. And that doing things that appear evil to defend the good fight is justified... every single war in human history was fought on these terms: by people believing so strongly to be in the right that they are willing to kill their enemy. If you think a crowd starts a riot or a country starts a war because they're simply evil and want to do evil things, you're probably watching too many movies and not understanding human behaviour, including your own.

If you're saying those people who stormed the US Capitol building had "terroristic tendencies", well, I think nearly every person does. We all argue, fight, and probably even kill given the right (wrong) circumstances.
Korea is another great example in recycling food waste. The country's food culture historically created a lot of food waste (although the total food waste had been reducing lately), and being a limited territory like Singapore, they recycle everything they can. Separating food waste is mandatory and you can get fined for not doing it. They use the recovered food waste as pig feed, compost and bio-gas.
