I'm not telling you how to parent, in saying that waking a growing boy in the night and limiting food during the day, may be more harmful in the long term. Childhood sleep and nutrition is probably the most important thing to a boys health.

I sometimes wonder if there's an evolutionary purpose to our conscious self not being able to control some subconscious and physical processes.
Yeah from first glance you'd think so, but the feedback loop even with CGMs and insulin pumps is just so much longer and less sensitive than what the body normally does.

The CGM measures glucose in the interstitial fluid, and the pump injects insulin subcutaneously, while the pancreas secrets it directly into the blood stream.
Even with the improvements we've made with synthetic insulin it just doesn't work as fast or as well as what we produce internally.
I don't think that aligns with their goals.
That what Russia could have done. But why do it since it is one thing to blow your own pipe and it is likely an act of war to blow ones that belong to other countries. The consequences for Russia are very bad in this case.

My question was to the post that implied that it was the US who blew up the pipelines. If that was the case they have just legitimized the potential Russian response.
> as well as blaming the UC

I mean UCSC is to blame (for the most part). UCSC keeps increasing enrollment without any concern as to where these students are going to live, knowing full well there isn't any housing available in the city.

Meanwhile the entity which holds the most undeveloped land in the area is UCSC itself!

UCSC has open land to build housing for all the students and then some.

That’s not a confusing language design. It’s a very simple case of mutability that new programmers stumble over because they don’t yet know how to reason about mutability.

But go ahead, tell us what should have been done instead here? Make it impossible to pass mutable arguments to functions? Or make it impossible to use mutable variables as default?
"Artificial Pancreas" schemes usually use ultra-short-acting insulins which are even quicker acting than "regular human" insulin.

There is virtually no immediate danger from high BGL (but medium to long term for sure!). High BGL over long time in Type-2 diabetes means there is actually too much insulin production for your own good, leading to high insulin resistance, leading to a situation where the cells aren't getting enough glucose at all. But this state takes some time to develop. Low BGL is the other way around: immediate danger, long term it's easier to buffer or control. Keep in mind those are generalizations. Don't take this as medical advice. Don't think I'm saying there is no need to react to high BGL.
Because sometimes you want to change it to a date many months or years in the future. That kind of thing as a test to make sure nothing goes wrong based on the date, like Y2K/Year 2038, or malicious code that's designed to lay dormant until some point in the future.

> They're concerned about [...] a rise in left wing voters through illegal immigration.

What? First time I hear this tenuous excuse.

Assuming what you say is true, it's astonishing a party wants to make immigration stricter to avoid having more people voting for the other side. I thought parties should win by having better policies, not by reducing competition. But the latter is something the far right (often times disguised under another name) has historically always been fond of.
Very true, but there are many of these false idols around and that also includes some of those that may noticed their shortcoming of the past and now believe themselves exonerated. Optimism is good, but naivete can be as expensive as inaction.

I doubt the idolization of big tech is actually as expressed in tech as it is in finance. Even worse as being entrenched is that these behemoth companies even want to regulate behavior. Microsoft is very prominent here. I think they overstepped their bounds and should be regulated. I am not from the US, but I believe society should set the rules, not these companies with their particular interests.

What's with the authoritative tone? You have no clue what American submarines have been up to, and if you did know, you'd be breaking the law by telling us anything about it. And it's absurd to pretend that the premise of submarines doing clandestine illegal stuff underwater is an outlandish "Q-style" 'conspiracy'.
This statistic is often trotted out.

It's in dollars, which is very misleading and forms an incomplete picture of the ecosystem required to have true manufacturing ability. We do final assembly on an automobile and that gets registered as big $$$. But it's actually pretty easy to assemble a bunch of already-made parts. Much more difficult (and quite a lot of skill, built up over decades) to make the fuel pump from raw inputs! We lack completely the lower three-quarters of the pyramid.

By this same logic, I did $500 in manufacturing this quarter because I assembled two Billy bookcase... nah.

You don't know anyone because... we don't do a lot of manufacturing. The pre-made imported parts come into a handful of Toyota factories, and a whole bunch of very expensive SUVs come out. That's how you can get such a high $$$ number and not know anyone who works manufacturing.
Ray Kurzweil had a prediction that by 2030 nanobots will cure diseases (before we have the technology to cure aging, which many people predict to be about 15 years from now, Ray predicts earlier).

While it's not inorganic molecules (Ray is not specific about technology implementations on purpose), immunotherapy is already getting better, and this looks like one more interesting example.

The automated translation of that article turned out a little bizarre. This is the automatically translated version:

Not only does this translation fumble the translation of the word "naval mines", which amusingly becomes "minors", but it also somewhat surprisingly changes the nationality of the military power involved.

The correct translation should be:

> The analysis shows that it is a Swedish remote-controlled craft (Seafox) that the Swedish Armed Forces use to detect, for example, naval mines.

> This hasn’t been consistent since at least Vista

Yes, I believe the Windows UI (at least until 10 since I haven't tested 11 deeply) is becoming increasingly inconsistent because of the many UI frameworks out there. And, while I understand that each app's developer is free to choose whatever framework UI they feel is right for them, I find it hard to understand why Microsoft is not sticking with a consistent framework for all of its apps, it went even far by using Electron for its Teams app! However, the thing that I might never get is: Why is Windows itself (and its system apps, i.e Calculator, Notepad) isn't sticking to a single framework? Yesterday, at night, I turned "Dark Mode" on and was surprised to see that "Task Manager" keeps its Light theme. It's weird how Notepad++ has a "Dark" theme while Task Manager has not!

We did figure out how to split atoms and turn that into reliable, usable energy with nearly zero carbon emissions. That seems more impressive than welding under water, as impressive as that is.
I don't think these activities are comparable. Saturation divers are regularly kept under pressures of 9 atmospheres, while astronauts in a space ship or space suit only need protected against atmospheres between 0 and 1. You'd never need something as rugged as a diving bell in space, and bends isn't even a risk. SciFi films often make it seem dramatic and fatal, but explosive decompression of a single atmosphere is survivable, as Kubrick accurately portrays David Bowman surviving such in 2001: A Space Odyssey.
> before we have the technology to cure aging, which many people predict to be about 15 years from now, Ray predicts 12

This number seems oddly small and specific? If aging is "cured" in humans in 12-15 years, you would expect it to be already cured today in animal models. Is there such an example where we were able to make an animal immortal?
The left despises monopolies in business - they constantly hunt it out and pillory businesses that engage in monopoly activity.

The left worships monopolies in education - all education must go through the government and indoctrinate children accordingly.

I am fine with the government investing in education. But the government should give tax money directly to parents to allocate to the schools of their choosing. Otherwise monopoly takes hold
This is a noble idea that unfortunately will not work. As a CTO of another small startup, I have no incentive to reuse those services for a number of reasons:

1. Trust. I need a strong vendor or community behind third party code which will issue security updates, have transparent roadmap that I understand and agree with and good paid licensing and support business model. It’s a high bar, but having some control over supply chain is important.

2. Architecture. Domain-specific services that integrate with some APIs are middleware: either I have to build some other middleware to integrate them with loose coupling, or I have to accept their integration contracts as a basis for my solution architecture. Both don’t look good to me.

3. Cost. If the problem is generic enough, why I should take only the code but spend money on DevOps to deploy it? No-code SaaS today is great and it’s all-in-one, being cost-efficient simply because it eliminates expensive internal maintenance effort. And it’s commodity today, there are often many alternatives for some problems, so vendor lock-in isn’t as scary as it was before.
Even if you can't, it has 8000mAh total battery capacity there are plenty of 30,000mAh+ battery packs on Amazon. If you can really get 5 hours out of 8000mAh, relying on a battery pack for the instances where you expect there's a chance of spending 5 hours using it somewhere without a charger seems reasonable...
> You know what data Fastmail sells about me to advertisers? Nothing.

Why do you think so? Specifically what are the reasons that you think this about Fastmail that do not apply to Gmail?

> Working for Google, I wonder if you have a conflict of interest in defending them so much.

I mean, technically I probably shouldn't be writing anything about Google products. But my area of work is so far from Gmail, that I only interact with it as a customer.

I don't know whether it will convince you that I'm not very biased about Gmail, but I do want to point out that I find at least one argument in favor of Fastmail pretty convincing and it's human support. Google has a pretty abysmal track record of handling accounts that they think are suspicious and if ever I change company I don't want to be in a position where my account is blocked without any recourse.
Diplomacy, sanctions, sabotage, military interventions.. They're all just a spectrum. Of course it shouldn't be understood as proof the US did it but to ignore that they had a strong geopolitical interest in having NS gone is naive. Would the white house approve it, given that it's partly allied civilian infrastructure, if the risk of getting caught is deemed low? I don't think that's impossible. They spied on those same allies and their top government officals, for instance.

That you feel the need to give advice despite being monumentally unqualified to do so should give you pause. Your chosen name "godmode2019" speaks for itself.

None of that comment is true except in the most general sense. You think you are giving advice, but the OP and other parents of Type-1 children have vastly more knowledge about diabetes, "childhood sleep and nutrition" and what it all means for their lives. Twice nightly blood sugar tests are unavoidable in many patients. No, you don't have to wake up the child necessarily. It's a simple finger prick at worst, so they might not even wake up or go right back to sleep. With modern sensors (which are less reliable) you only need to swipe the reader over the sensor.
> The sad part is that AI/ML would be incredibly useful for all this. People could take pictures of their meals,

Pictures of food are nowhere near near enough data to determine the carb content of a food. My SO has T1, and there have been times where there's been no visible change, and I can only taste a vague change in the taste of some food item and the changes it caused to their blood glucose were wildly different that what it had done previously.
To be fair, the only entity who owns very large amounts of undeveloped land in the area is ... UCSC itself.

The worst NIMBY in the area is UCSC. They want to bring in all the students but not provide enough housing even though they own tons of open land in which they could build such housing.
You can send me a message if you want.

Neoliberalism – the ideology at the root of all our problems (2016)
he could do it by shutting off the pipeline, which is what he was already doing. He didn't need an excuse. Furthermore, he wants to be able to turn it back on, as negotiating tool. But the explosion prevents that, with no benefit. People are saying they want to avoid fines, but the fines could never exceed the value of the intact pipeline. It's nonsense.
I'd like to emphasize that I know Type-2 isn't very comparable to Type-1. I don't want to lessen or cheapen the struggle of Type-1 patients. I can only guess how hard that must be. I just wanted to pass on some knowledge because Type-2 is vastly more common.

I'd imagine an explosion of the size measured by scientists wouldn't have been caused by running overpressure. I can't find the article at the moment but I recall it being equivalent of some undersea depth charges.

Those aren't normal-grade pipes underwater. They are concrete reinforced. Unless something ignited the gas then I have a hard time believing it was a software attack. Those pipes are usually purged of oxygen as well meaning ignition would be...surprising. Moreover I've been reading that the pipes were empty anyway. Do they keep those pipe pressurized all the time?

Whoever did it most likely used an explosive by my estimation. Special forces dive teams are capable of the depths needed and wouldn't be detected by submarine searches. Further, it would make no sense for the US to sabotage the pipeline because the LNG supply chain from the US to Europe is by boat. Frankly I wouldn't be shocked if Russia did this to declare a sort of "official" separation. A false flag is possible too just given the situation Europe is in I find it hard to believe NATO would do that. Usually with a false flag there is some, even seemingly inconsequential, motivation.

Can we stop with this absolute fantasy about PCs that "fit in your pocket"?

The medium is the message, the form is the functionality.

Smartphones have been "pocketable PCs" for more than a decade already, but are dumbed down because their inputs and outputs are limited. You can't type effectively, your screen is small, your battery is limited. Would you want a command line interface on your Smart TV using only a remote? How about XFCE? Or GNOME? No, for a Smart TV we have purposefully made OSs that are limited in functionality such as Kodi, LibreELEC and others specifically because of the type of inputs and outputs needed.

I think the only way we could ever get a portable PC experience on the go is by having AR glasses project a full desktop in front of us and let us control it with an imaginary keyboard and touchpad by somehow analyzing our hand movements on a hard surface in front of us. But that's only if we get to a point where said devices are fast and hold a decent battery, which, with current technology, is impossible.
there's probably a robot for that :)
Fun fact: The best naval ordonance disposal teams are from the Baltic states. The difuse more live ordonance, from WW1 and WW2 in a week than the US counter parts see in training, non-live ordonance in a year (might also be in a month, they diffuse a ton so.
