Long Covid already is a real thing, it just was known under different names: chronic fatigue syndrome, myalgic encephalomyelitis, chronic fatigue immune dysfunction syndrome, or systemic exertion intolerance disease.

The only difference is that Covid caused the number of viral infections to skyrocket, and with that, we see a corresponding jump in the occurrence of post-viral autoimmune disregulation, so now there's more effort being spent on finding out what's really going on.
If killing innocent people is where you draw the line then you should stop doing business with the U.S.

Inb4 cries of whatboutism, no I'm just pointing out the hypocrisy.
Everything here is focused on cryptography, but there's other common issues that can fall into this trap too. For example, naive implementations of a hash function for a basic array + linked list hash table. If you generate a hash, and then modulo that to pick a hash bucket, you could end up with a biased distribution across the buckets, and customers complaining your performance varies wildly based on the input value.

Just more things to think about :)

Transformers can fit about 4000 tokens in the context window. That's a lot of dialogue rounds. The problem is these models are too expensive to offer at scale.

We almost never get to see the latest AI in big corporation products. It is always AI from a couple generations ago that is cheaper to run. When we get the latest and greatest, like GPT-3 and DallE, then it's super expensive to use, not free.
Absolutely they can try. But who will come to their rescue when the federal government comes to impose it's opinion?

Anyone can say anyone else is bad and "take action" against it. What matters is whether the rest of the world agrees with you or not.

That's most likely the intent of the headline, pop references are normal.
Could that also be due to transplants? 80% of people in SF apparently don’t stay that long and move out. I can easily imagine someone moving to SF and enjoying the nice temps most of the year.

The two weeks of high heat that everyone on California coasts experiences can cause such people to freak out and want an AC instead of dealing with it or going outside. I live in a coastal city where it’s 70 basically every day except for 10 days of the year when it can be high 80s/90s. Just get a fan.

I think I see what you are saying (the shared variable threw me), but it STILL isn't doing what you think.

def s(x):
x[1] = 2222
return x

x = [1,2,3]
print(s(x)) # prints [1, 2222, 3)

As you can see, it is pass by reference.

Tuples, strings, numbers, and some other things are immutable.

When you pass them, you pass a reference (from the user's perspective as this can be optimized to pass by value as the interpreter sees fit). When you update that reference, because they are immutable, you must update the current reference to a new location in memory. Because you are changing what the new pointer variable in the function points to, of course the other pointer doesn't update.
These people learn to hedge:

- Take X% of what they pay to Figma/Adobe and donate to FOSS alternatives.

- Every year, go through an exercise to look for missing features on the open source tool that still keeps you dependent on the proprietary one. Take the results from the feedback and give to the developers.

- (If you are a big company) use the results of this exercise to try to negotiate down on the price of the proprietary system you depend on. If you manage to get a discount, take it and double down on the support of the free alternative.

- Repeat until either you no longer need the proprietary solution or the open source alternative surpasses the closed one in capabilities and market share.
Compared with all the deaths drunk people inflict on each other, seems like a good deal. We kill and maim each other with cars pretty often too.
Same with Nginx being acquired by F5 Networks. Nginx really ate their lunch and were rewarded handsomely for that
That car is not inherently required. It's required because US cities are designed around cars.

There's a great channel called "Not just bikes" that demonstrates what cities look like that don't follow this pattern. Denser buildings, narrower and fewer lanes, less space wasted on parking, better pedestrian crossings and islands, better signaling/timing for pedestrians, etc.

Those cities have lower noise, lower pollution, better economics (road maintenance is a massive cost) and are way safer.
A lot of confusion around this is because there isn't a general understanding around whether <input type="number"> represents a strict numeric value or if just the input interface should be a numpad instead of a full keyboard

Neither one of those are counterexamples. One guy decided to give up solving his deliverability problems (problems I don’t have after self-hosting my email for 20 years). Nobody banned him. The second example is cloudflare banning a site. I don’t (and wouldn’t) use cloudflare, and even in that case, nobody banned anybody from his own website—just from cloudfare.
They could give teens growth hormone instead. I guess now that late adolescent gender transitions are becoming accepted, and since they already give growth hormone to little people, that's the next step.
Green is widely used as a pain treatment by NFL players despite the fact that it is prohibited and thus under the radar. Meanwhile OxyContin is regularly prescribed to treat pain yet it is disliked by at a least a few vocal NFL athletes.
They're feeling a lot less pain than people who need to take out mortgages for property. Rents are skyrocketing, and with home prices dropping all cash buyers who are renting the properties out are laughing all the way to the bank while everyone else suffers.

This is fantastic.

I switched to minimal shoes just over a year ago. While they are great, they wear holes in the sole after just a few months.

The shoe is fine, the laces are fine. Throwing them away feels like an absurd waste. But the holes do make them unwearable.

I wouldn't feel as bad about throwing them out if I knew the materials were renewable.
I’m sure they’ll totally fine with in as they cash their massive checks.

The "increasing demand" lever also reduces affordability over longer timescales as prices rise faster than wages, so people without a home are priced out of ever buying one.
Very good summary of the issues I've found with it as well. I've had to instruct my developers to never use this input type, and use an Angular directive to limit input values instead.

Even though making $100k fits this description, it would be like saying Julius Caesar died more than 10 years ago. that's technically true but no one would say that.

It's implied from the part I cited he makes around 250k, maybe fluctuating between 230 and 240
I'm curious how they maintained the aesthetic consistency throughout, and the repeated inclusion of red-haired figure facing away from us.

A two-day cardiopulmonary exercise test can be useful to diagnose ME/CFS regardless of whether it was caused by a SARS-CoV-2 infection or something else. But it's not definitive by itself. Maximum exercise capacity varies significantly day-to-day for the same individual based on nutrition, sleep, alcohol consumption, menstrual cycle, mental state, and other factors. In most test protocols they stop when the patient gives up, but some days people are just more willing to suffer and push through the pain to get a little farther. We can get some additional clues by looking at certain objective measures like HRV but even that isn't definitive.

Long COVID is really more of a syndrome, a rough grouping of symptoms rather that a specific condition. It's so vague and covers such a wide range of different symptoms as to be clinically useless.
Discord, no (at least for now - some government contractor adding self-help via Discord or Slack is not hard to imagine). Your gmail account? Yes, it would prevent you from using the DMV's website.
Incredible product, journey, and financial success. Nevertheless, I bet this was not an easy decision. Losing independence even with all the other great aspects isn't ideal. Just a guess, but I bet the prospect of doing layoffs compared to selling played a role. Gitlab/Monday are public comps and currently worth less than Figma's last valuation.
> A rude gesture or crass words seems vulgar. A video of a penis being sucked doesn't. "Vulgar" is the sort of word you might hear a shrill, paternal sitcom character use to describe a minor inconvenience or faux pas, and it's just as hilarious when people use it as an argument in real life.

In the mean time you can spare people gratuitous, graphic descriptions of explicit sex acts, AKA pornography, and keep your depraved fantasies for yourself.

OK, let me rephrase: as a senior manager within the broadly-defined technology security function of a large US company (that is not a defense contractor), I care, as does our board of directors.
Well, it will never be "over". This is how it is now.

It's not like it was ever ok that the flu killed tens of thousands of people every year in the US alone. It's just not a thing that is going to be going away, so the tradeoff of temporarily staying home or wearing masks or etc. is different than if you think it will be gone in a few months.
I'd always rather the greater than 50% coalition have control than the less than 50% coalition. Just look at it from a numbers standpoint. If the vote is to "kill the other team" giving which group power does the least harm? The Majority.

And just because that vote can happen isn't a mark against the system. The three other forms of government you mentioned are all equally capable of that atrocity.
A lot of those statistics about men being the taller ones in most pairings come from the fact that men are taller than women on average.
Sorry for not updating the demo included on the site. But scrolling is working in the newer version. Also, DFlex is not meant for uploading assets to the browser otherwise, it's the future of interactive apps when elements can be transformed and positioned smoothly. This is what I am trying to achieve with DFlex that's why I spent so much time figuring out the optimal solution for reconciling a transformed element instead of adding a layer to html5 and call it a day.

I do not think it is reasonable to assume a random piece of land will appreciate at 3% per year over a period of 30 years. Not to mention the maintenance and renovation costs on a $1M home.

Maybe in the most popular areas, it would sell for 1.03^30 = $2.4M after 30 years, but in the vast majority of the US, that has not historically been the case.
Like I said, you're broadly correct, and specifically correct.

If a bad actor misbehaves before controlling 2/3 then their stake gets eroded or even erased as punishment. Even merely being offline can result in stake erosion.

I’ve had the same question for years! There are a few tools that have tried over the years, but nothing that has stuck around.

And I get that the pixel-perfect design and slicing from the Fireworks era isn’t as useful in today’s world of responsive design and multiple screen sizes and variable screen densities, where CSS and JavaScript plays a much larger role, but I still wish we had a successor.

Because as you said, although most apps now do the hybrid vector/faster thing, nothing really matches what we had with Fireworks.

RIP Macromedia.

I have paid for Adobe CC for years now, since they started subscriptions. As much as I hate shelling out $29.99 a month for something I use maybe 5 times a month, it always just worked for me. I've started looking at alternatives, but it's hard to spend the time learning the new product vs just spending the $30 a month. I think they've tried to raise mine several times. If I can ever not renew at $29.99, I will probably prioritize finding the time to try other stuff.

The NIMBYism is one of the reasons US cities suck. The primary aim of NIMBY is to lower density because less supply=higher prices. All these efforts to block new construction and multi-use development yield sprawl and car culture.
I'm not so sure of this. I have lots of trade friends/acquaintances/family members because my family runs a construction business. I know lots of people in the trades who are struggling and can't afford to own a house in the "cheap" midwest. Some are 30 and have been at it for several years and still live with their parents or shake up 6+ to a rented 3 bedroom.

They are skilled too, mechanics, electricians, welders.

The old dudes running the business make bank, for sure. But the people turning the wrenches are still getting the shaft.

There's been a lot of cosmetic improvements in NetBeans in the last few releases, including this latest one.

In particular, a while back the default look & feel was switched to FlatLAF ( https://www.formdev.com/flatlaf/ ), and before that again we did a lot of work to support HiDPI and Retina screens ( https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/HiDPI+%... ). In NetBeans 15 we did a series of tweaks to further improve the look of the UI (e.g. https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/4286 ).
> The amount of energy worth buying to mine crypto is exactly equal to the value of the crypto mined.

That's like saying a stock price is directly proportional to the p/e ratio. Things have both intrinsic and extrinsic value. You are only considering the intrinsic value. In reality, people mine stuff at a loss all the time because they think it might be work more later, i.e. speculation.

That’s why assumed it wasn’t sarcastic. As a sarcastic comment it feels flippant and dismissive. So I thought a better perspective was that they were referencing Google’s social and messaging products.

Adobe engages in all kinds of bad faith shenanigans and dark patterns, feeling free to abuse their position. They need competition and this should be blocked by the FTC.
A lot of sites are non-functional till you either accept or reject the cookies.

Developers here tend to look down on LinkedIn, but it really is a good start when job hunting. Create a profile there if you haven't already. That alone will usually get recruiters contacting you. I also second the advice to contact a recruiter (ask someone for a referral if you can) and have them review your resume.

Matching people to openings is what recruiters do all day long; they're better at it than you are and their incentive is to make more money. Let them do as much of the work for you as you can.
It’s not just the phrasing, though; there’s also a lot of cultural context that the modern reader will miss without footnotes to guide them. For example, from Oliver Twist:

> It was a meanly furnished apartment, with nothing but the contents of the closet to induce the belief that its occupier was anything but a working man; and with no more suspicious articles displayed to view than two or three heavy bludgeons which stood in a corner, and a “life-preserver”* that hung over the chimney-piece.

> * ‘life-preserver’: stick weighted with lead; widely used for self-protection.

That footnote rather drastically changes the mental picture for the modern reader!

The US only has this power because everyone relies on the USA to do everything. Stop relying on the US and we can stop caring about how the US treats the rest of the world.

Being gay is illegal in some parts of the world but my gay friends don't care because they don't do business with those countries, don't participate in any commerce that does business in those countries, etc. Your country will cease being bound by US law when you cease to rely on the US for whatever.
From a POS point of view it is easier to get people to leave custodial wallets (the biggest holders you see here, like coinbase). BUT people don't for a lot of pretty valid reasons. First is that you won't be staking on ETH2 if you don't have 32 tokens (roughly $50k). (I see this as a pretty centralizing barrier and similar to why people joined mining pools instead of being on their own) The second is that people invest in many coins, so it makes sense to keep everything in a singular location than 20 different wallets. So, convenience.

I honestly have yet to see a system that provides a strong decentralizing force. To be fair, I think this is a really difficult task that people don't really give it it's credit. I mean there's resource momentum and resources make it easier to obtain more resources. The problem with that is that it seem to be outside the control of any cryptocurrency and this makes the issue infinitely more difficult.
nah, as long as it's still easy for an individual to run a node and store the entire blockchain on their own it's miles ahead of anyone else

I agree, it's creating a very unhealthy environment that is breeding resentment and worsening the issues it's trying to solve.

Frankly, I feel like it has become its own flavor of religion. Often, suggesting that a religion change a practice to a "better" one is considered just as blasphemous as rejecting religion outright. I see a very similar parallel with these trainings, including the false invitation to "share your thoughts and feelings", which is used more as a tool to identify and hush "non-believers" than to critically examine any criticisms that may be brought forward.

> The high mortgage rates are putting my monthly payment estimates in uncomfortable territory...

And they are doing the same for everyone else who needs a mortgage to be able to buy. So, what's going to happen is that in a month or so, house sellers are going to realize that they can't get the same price now that they could six months ago.

Offer a price that makes your monthly payments comfortable, even if it's less than the seller is asking. If everybody else is in the same boat, and nobody else offers more, then the seller has a decision to make - your offer, or nothing. It can take a while for them to decide to bite that bullet, though.

Note well: I'm not a realtor, nor a real estate investment guru. This is just the way I think this plays out.
