Water history has two different historical standards:

1. First come, first served.

2. Don't screw the people downstream.

From what I gather, different places typically use one or the other standard.

In California, both tests are part of the law, which makes things complicated. A lot of water law in California was hashed out historically in Fresno County.

> The previous comment, however, specifically mentioned long covid. Biomarkers for long covid are known.

Biomarkers for long covid are NOT "known". The Iwasaki paper discussed in this article is methodologically questionable (if not poor), and this much better, well-controlled cohort study from the NIH found the exact opposite -- no indication of significant differences across about 150 different clinical markers:

https://www.acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/M21-4905

If I'm being maximally generous to Iwasaki's group, the best I can say is that they've advanced a hypothesis that needs to be verified by others, using better methods, with better controls. We're a long, long way from "known biomarkers".

> Both patient experience and biological research confirm that long covid isn't psychological.

There is no such research to "confirm" this claim, and "patient experience" is not evidence. It's an assertion. In fact, one good study out of France found that "self-reported COVID-19 infection was associated with most persistent physical symptoms, whereas laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 infection was associated only with anosmia.":

https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/fullar...

About all you can say about "long covid" is that most of the existing research is of terrible quality, and the little that is well-controlled and high-quality doesn't confirm the most hyperbolic claims. If it is something other than psychosomatic illness, we don't know what it is, or how to diagnose it objectively.

I feel like there's an entire interesting story that you skipped over that was vital to understanding your comment.
If labeling efforts cut the death rate in half that's 249 more people a year who are saved vs. "grapefruit deaths." The trick is to aim for improvement not perfection. We could limit deaths more by banning Tylenol but that would lead to other problems that might be equally serious (e.g. more opioid use for pain relief).
I don't think you fall into the remotely technical category group.

Kodi can do all those things but you wouldn't as it has much better options to achieve the same result.

I find my Framework laptop really good. 4h+ battery life despite Linux lacking support for the best idle state, plenty of power for compiling, clean and solid build. Best part: You can repair it at home.
This is GREAT. I'm trying my hand at "cryptocurrency" now.

"Money that is written on joined computers and can't be over written or taken away. Everyone can see every time you send money from one person to another, except you can use a not real name or number to show who you are. It uses a lot of computer power to work out whether or not what you did is real and by you. A big group of computers talks to each other to agree that what you did was real, but right now it has to use too much power that we pay for and that is bad for the world to get it done. Newer ways will use less power and will instead make people give some of their money to the computer for some time to show that the thing works and that they want to keep using it, and that they want other people to keep using it."

ugh
I may mis-understand but my reading of "from apes to warlords" by Solly Zuckerman (who was a scientist informing the Bombing campaign) is that Bomber Harris, and others, completely misunderstood the imperative in targetted bombing which in any case they couldn't really do, and so dismissed the evidence that targetted strategic bombing of critical supply chain elements was very high value.

Instead, they insisted "morale" carpet bombing made more sense, despite mounting unsustainable losses.

When finally the Oil, Ball Bearing and "transport plan" bombing was shown to work, the beginnings of the end of Bomber Harris started. Late in the war.

Scientific analysis post D-Day on bomb effects were telling.

Basically, they had the right idea. Bombing Ploesti Oil fields and ball bearing factories and rubber tyre plants, and the Buna artificial oil plants was the right thing to do, but it didn't suit the people in control, so they didn't keep the path long enough to find out.
according to the study, that is "corrected to 0.23%", and once you exclude locations with exceptionally poor medical care, you get a value below 0.2%.

In other words, we locked down the world and destroyed our free society for influenza-with-a-different-name.

Just like the folks who were unpersoned in 2020 said we were.

Seems like yet again, the difference between "conspiracy theory" and "the truth" is "about 18 months"

It takes all kinds.

I (have learned to) love working with hardware. There’s a specific tension between hardware developers (firmware) and software that runs closer to the user. I used to do a lot more consulting - building mobile apps that talked to BLE sensors, like refrigeration controllers, etc, and almost always the end user was a technician.

Now, I’m making apps specifically for non-technical users. I really love the challenge.

To come up with my app idea (and business) I tried to think about the worst possible hardware on the planet and thought label printers.

Turns out that the hardware is almost universally pretty good, but there was no software that worked for both Mac and windows, worked independent of device drivers, was easy to use, had modern conveniences, and didn’t cost hundreds of dollars.

At the same time my competitors are extracting as much value from the label printer landscape as possible, with a wake of irked users behind them. RFID in the label roll? Yep. Jacked up pricing and mandatory support subscriptions. Yep. More proprietary everything… yep.

I’m always looking for new markets and ideas. A year ago, when a competitor released a new printer with RFID, I got call after call asking me to bundle a printer with my app. At the time I didn’t find a compelling printer on the market … nothing that would set my business apart.

But then I found a Chinese manufacturer and read Hardware Hacker, and now I’ve got these awesome printers for sale, bundled with my design app! I’m competing in the 4” wide 300 DPI direct-thermal market. I’m not marketing this as a shipping label printer (that’s a solved problem), instead, it’s for making custom designed labels, usually with barcodes, usually with data from an external source.

The printer:

Your reasoning is likely faulty if you don't see that OOP is a very advanced and great module system.

The only problem with OOP is that it's often misused for other things that aren't modules. But that's a different story.

So the IDE or whatever would basically traverse up the filesystem looking for the first directory with a .git subdirectory? I've never encountered something like that but I suppose it's possible. Do you know of any IDEs specifically that do that?

At any rate, I didn't know renaming the .git directory was possible. Do you have to add the --git-dir option to every subsequent git command? Sounds like a pain but my dotfiles change rarely enough that I guess I could live with it if I had to.

If I sell .1g cocaine I have still committed the regular version of the crime though. Its just that we measure drugs as a final product not the amount of the active ingredient because drug sellers/buyers don’t have a great way to measure that.
On the other hand if I sell powdered sugar as cocaine I have committed a different offense.
Actually that's also wrong, I usually see this rule applied in other languages:

If the opening bracket is on the same line as content, then so is the closing bracket.

By this rule, we have two options:

(+
(EXPT 23 2.4)
(SIN (\* 44 0.23 22))
(COS (+ 12 0.43 19.0))
(TAN (/ 1.4 0.77 3/4))
)

or

(+ (EXPT 23 2.4)
(SIN (\* 44 0.23 22))
(COS (+ 12 0.43 19.0))
(TAN (/ 1.4 0.77 3/4)))

The first option has both opening and closing brackets on their own lines, while the second has neither. Note that I consider the function name to be part of the opening bracket since it's distinct from the parameters.

This is consistent with other languages:

[1, 2, 3]
f(x, y, z)
[
1,
2,
3,
]
f(
x,
y,
z
)

instead of

[1,
2,
3,
]
f(x,
y,
z,
)
Yes, absolutely. Scientists are paid a pittance, so they're clearly not valuable to American society, and they should be kept out. America doesn't value science much anyway; just look at how many Americans don't believe in vaccines.

CSS-only macOS-style dock interaction using the new :has() selector
The "infinite" descriptor is an imprecise one: by definition, a computer with limited memory has finite state. While we can make pretensions to infinite capacity, that's not really the thrust of the description when we say "finite state machine", which is to put emphasis not on the limitations of the computer, but on the definition of a quantified and labelled set of states and transitions.

What all of these terms really describe are formalisms over finite state - the linked paper is precise in this respect. "You can't store state in an FSM" misses the point: you can store as many concepts as you have enumerated states, and the act of storage itself is a change from one state to another state. Breaking with this concept and allowing unlabelled storage is indeed a useful quality because it helps with dealing with bulk permutations.

But every programming language is intricately tied to their models of finite state and how it's presented to the user. Most PLs, and likewise hardware instruction sets, hide away state bookkeeping with notions of "assignment" and "branching", so when the formalisms appear it's usually because you really need to explicitly enumerate more of your state. The formalized FSM goes hand-in-hand with concurrent programming because it clarifies how coordination occurs and when state changes are allowed. And real implementations of the FSM usually piggyback in some degree on the base programming environment, which has always been a source of muddiness: oftentimes a "goto" is exactly what you need to describe a transition, and yet in structured programs, we've eliminated goto.
I agree with other folks in this thread who think that the name "The Gimp" (Pulp Fiction reference) is too offensive and something with this name can probably never gain mass adoption because it's a hurtful thing to say. The word gimp is a somewhat-outdated word to insult a crippled person. An in-context usage would be e.g. evil bullies at a playground back in ~1910 beating up a crippled kid while calling him a gimp. The Pulp Fiction scene is a reference to this context, where a character is temporarily restrained (gimped) by that sex suit. I really don't see how software named "Gimp" could be discussed on corporate email threads and stuff without that being rude. It's pretty similar to if the software were named "Little Cripple".
Which I don't think is the end of the world. I can draw horrid things on my iPad in Procreate or even just a pencil on paper. What's new here is ease of access and hyper realism. This is more a problem for fake news than just generating bad/shock images which were already possible.
So Stripe is harming their reputation for offering crypto payment services? Same with Moneygram? I don't think so.

They waited long enough for regulatory clarity on crypto (and still are waiting for other rules to go through) and they have already deployed their offerings today.

So there is no 'big problem' and those companies are choosing the cryptocurrencies that will survive regulations.

Japan's space program focuses on cost effective solid rocket boosters and does not build ballistic missiles out of them. Liquid engines generally have the advantage in ISP, which is why they dominate large rockets. But solid rockets have substantial savings in manufacturing and operational simplicity that shouldn't be simply handwaved away.
> For each component (subgraph of the whole PipeWire graph), one node is the driver and is responsible for timing information.

A new thing I learned I guess. JACK treats both the output ports and input ports of the single hw device as a driver, and if the output ports (capture) generates more samples than the input ports (playback) accept, you eventually get buffer xruns.

> Note: in this simple example, the buffer size provided to ALSA by PipeWire determines the time we have to generate new data.

I thought PipeWire uses quantums, effectively ignoring ALSA periods and "racing the beam" using software timers instead.

It's all about generation time. If generation was faster, the UI could preemptively show you a lot of variations based on suggested keywords. And also you could click things and get immediate results.

Currently it takes my mid end PC (2070 Super) 10 seconds per image, which is too slow. You would need to get generation time below 1 second to be quite productive. I guess you can already achieve that with something like triple 3090s?

list:
- Hello
- true
foo:
cat: 10
- use: console.log
args:
- ${obj.list[0]} World
- ${obj.foo.cat}
- ${JSON.stringify(obj.foo)}

We've spent decades optimizing urban use and restricting lawns/ pools. We haven't spent decades meaningfully optimizing agricultural water usage, despite it consuming more water all other human usage categories combined.

Now we're facing a shortfalls where eliminating the entirety of residential water usage might not be enough. Maybe it's time to focus the more of our efforts on other categories.

There is some benefit to building inside a container - it keeps your build environment consistent across team members and makes it easier to replicate your CI.

Having said that, because the .Net toolchain is capable of cross-targeting this feature should enable broad swaths of users to not need to build inside a container to get a container created. So I completely agree with your puzzlement here and would hope that this feature leads to a reduction in that particular pattern.
Interesting how different Judaism and Catholicism are in this way. My family lost forty people in the concentration camps, and there was simply no way we could reconcile a belief in god with that. But I also grew up with a strong Jewish identity, and still practice many of the rituals.

I was probably in college before I really understood that other religious practices truly BELIEVED the stuff they were talking about, in a way that most Jews I knew didn't. It was like being really into Harry Potter, and one day finding out that everyone who was really into LOTR truly believed that Frodo was a real person who had gone on a journey with a magical ring. And that THEY were confused how you could talk so much about these fan theories and what is/isn't Harry Potter canon if you didn't deeply believe that there was a magical wizarding school hidden somewhere around Manchester.

When my Catholic friends would lose their faith, they pretty much stopped calling themselves Catholic. At most they might call themselves "lapsed," but they always made it very clear that they no longer considered it part of their identity and they didn't go to church. My friends with more fundamentalist upbringings became aggressively anti-religious, like the militant vegans of the religious world.

I think some of the reason Judaism sticks is that an individual relationship with God isn't a central tenet. The individual's primary relationship is with the community, it's the community that has a relationship/covenant with God. A lot of the practice and ethics are about how a person best contributes to a harmonious group. It also certainly helps that we keep changing languages - first Hebrew which I don't speak, then Aramaic which I also don't speak, then Yiddish which I also don't speak - so it's easy to go through the rituals without being smacked in the face with direct appeals to an almighty power. And Judaism is a "religion" somewhat more in the way that belief in Greek gods was a "religion," a part of life and culture that blends with more secular life and culture.
