I'm not sure how the anti-trust / anti-monopoly laws work, but isn't it conflict of interest, if you limit others in how they can use your platform, but allow yourself to do the same things you're limiting others in? Or am I wrong?

A man calls me a bitch for not being enthralled by a dick pic he sent after saying "what's up" and nothing else. What's his perspective and why should I care?
The takeaway here is that there is a middle ground between the 'blackpill' mindset we often hear about online and the reality. The reality is grim, but not grimdark.
I relate to this so much. I probably should build a morning routine. There's so much I want to get done.

...very little spelling irregularity, like Spanish.

As a native speaker I wouldn't say very little, but none.

Anyway, I'll better be catious and ask if you know any.

Not saying that Spanish is an easy language to learn, some parts are complicated, but not that one.
Open Representative Voting (ORV) vs Proof of Stake (PoS):

While Nano uses a weighted-voting system (ORV) that can be compared to PoS, it differs from traditional PoS because:

* There is not one monolithic blockchain that requires leader selection (i.e. a staker or a miner) to extend

* Representatives do not create or produce shared blocks (groups of transactions)

* Each Nano account has its own blockchain that only the owner can modify (representatives can only modify their own blockchain)

* In Nano, a block is a single transaction (not a group of transactions). Transactions are evaluated individually and asynchronously

* Users can remotely re-delegate their voting weight to anyone at any time

* Anyone can be a representative

* No funds are staked or locked up

* Representatives do not earn transaction fees

* Representatives cannot reverse transactions that nodes have locally confirmed (due to block cementing).

- from https://docs.nano.org/protocol-design/orv-consensus/
What do you mean by all that?
You've got the technical definition correct, but the vast majority of usage of the term meme today is the colloquial usage, which is centered on humor, and has only a passing similarity to Dawkins' idea. Really, it's used today as a replacement term for what used to be called an "image macro", but also extends to cover video content.

For better or worse, that ship has sailed. Convincing people otherwise is going to go about as well as convincing them to not use "literally" in a figurative sense.
> If you just want to generate 1-time credit card numbers to use once it's the best experience imo - can easily do it in the Wallet app.

I'm sorry, but how? To best of my awareness, there is only one virtual card (though it has a rotating CVV) and the only option I see is "request new card number" that should be used in event of having the current number compromised. I don't see any way to have multiple virtual cards there.

Well, technically there are 3+ cards - the physical card (without a CVV, so not really useful), the virtual card (see above), and one-per-device Apple Pay cards numbers (probably not useful unless merchant accepts Apple Pay).
Behaviors become disorders when they severely affect your ability to function. “In society” is often added.

The “in society” is a sticking point for many people because a great many diagnoses are only disorders due to modern society or cultures.

Some disorders are largely independent of culture. Severe executive function problems are on par with more visible disabilities. Even if having vision from God are acceptable, a bipolar person will be clearly marked as ”not normal” in any culture.
> I've heard rumor that the future of OpenSUSE Leap is now in doubt.

Yes because the future is OpenSUSE MicroOS aka ALP. Rolling release, immutable system, all apps are containerized (Flatpak and Toolbox/Podman). Using it right now, easily best Linux desktop to date, even with a few bugs here and there.

Ubuntu and Fedora, for all the bugs and shit they've pulled over the years, are still way more usable than pretty much any other Linux desktop outside the big 3...
> Grip strength is a leading indicator of whether or not an elderly person will recover from a fall.

I suspect that this is one of those things where the correlation falls apart as soon as you start training explicitly for it.

Many clinicians use grip strength can be used as a proxy for overall strength[1], but the actual correlation is often moderate, at best[2]. Grip strength is just much easier to measure than, say, someone's max deadlift, so some inaccuracy is allowed.

But _only_ training grip shouldn't have much effect on hip fractures. You can use one of those squeeze handles all day, every day, and not improve your overall survivability. Likewise, squats would have little effect on your grip strength, but should correlate highly to surviving a fall.

All of which is to say, ignore all the stories about how grip strength, or the sitting-rising test[3], or any other "trick" that is supposed to correlate on long life, and focus instead on being overall strong and limber. For most people, yoga is probably sufficient. Adding in some basic weight lifting would be excellent, too, for most people.

I'm probably a cynic, but it feels intellectually dishonest.
Yes, you probably could do that. It's something I've considered. Early on before I got the networking working through the proxy I found a way to use arp to connect multiple browser tab versions of this in a pseudo-private-network configuration. It only works locally and only works inside chrome, and only a single instance of chrome at that. But it was cool idea and the only use case I could think of was setting up a local cluster of Postgres instances within the browser. And my kids think playing video games is fun! Meh.

I would love to see a market for content moderation. Publish what you want but AI + human agents will curate info for me.
JDBI also could be really nice as a minimalistic layer for a db access
Depends on what replaces it. If it's replaced by "you are liable for everything on your site, even if it's user generated", then yes. If it's something in between that and the current Section 230, then... maybe we wind up somewhere in between? (But I don't know what that "something in between" would be, and I can't predict what the effects would be...)
I usted Javalin a few months ago for a kotlin api. It's awesome!
It isn't US based, so they are likely blatantly ripping it off with no permission to get eyes on their company. There are unlikely to be any legal ramifications.

The less likely possibility is that they did get rights, but look so shady that the rep can't confirm it is legitimate without a blow to credibility.
What you are describing is having the data in elasticsearch in the same format as the data in postgresql. Which is easy.

You could also for instance create a script and use a postgresql logical replication connection ( just like Debezium ) stream the changes into elasticsearch. Without having a full Kafka connect setup. And all the training an maintenance that comes with it.

What I am describing is, before storing the data in Elasticsearch computing the data in a materialized format. So it's more efficient for Elasticsearch to work with. And no longer having any needs for joins.

So instead of recomputing the materialized data every time in it's entirety you want to be more smart about it.
The root table of the materialized data depends on maybe 5 other tables. So if data in those 5 other tables change you need to know if they have a relationship with a row in the "root table". And then only re-materialize those rows.

Materialize does this by having it's own SQL language where you define your materialized view. Which compiles to clever algorithms and uses an execution engine to get to this result.

What I am doing is just having a lookup graph + queries to see what tables, id entries are invalidated. And I re-materialize using normal sql and some extra processing using a nodejs script to make it more optimal for Elasticsearch.

It's not as fancy. But it works and does the job.
The problem is more the inconsistent behavior. Styling is also a concern, but why doesn't the Option element behave the same in a datalist as in a select? (I think only Firefox actually does this properly).
I feel the same about ATS. In fact, I wish it was even more boring, like real driving is. ATS has an unrealistic amount of curves and shortens the distances between cities that in real life would take many hours to travel between.

It also is devoid of any of the (often catastrophic) downsides of making a mistake in real life. Turns out driving can be relaxing and fun if you remove anxiety involving death, injury, and property damage. Perhaps the same applies to farming sims.
Definitely some regional variability there, as this doesn't exactly match my experience, but it's close enough that I concede they are good points. To really get people on board who don't have good at-home charging available, there will need to be progress on both of those points.
If you've ever read Larry Niven's Fleet of Worlds series, there's a Bussard Ramjet with an AI programmed to hide any information that could help a hostile enemy/force find their way back to Earth.

A small cadre of humans who were raised by an Alien Race who came across a human seed ship cross paths with this Ramjet, and one of the protagonists realizes something is off when they do a query on the size of presentable search results in the astrographic/navigational dataset, and realizes that the number of starmaps the AI will produce is far smaller than the amount of space the system actually dedicates to storing said maps.

Point being, you can't trust any system that restricts results to a subset to not actually being designed to leave out results. and it furthermore makes a great, plausibly deniable way to drop search results... Force ranking to 10001+.

You'll forgive me, I'm sure, if I question a company well known for cooperating with an anti-humanitarian regime (Project Dragonfly) and that regularly black holes other undesirable datapoints, of engaging in less than up front search result presentation, I hope?

WAR CABINET.

BREVITY.

Memorandum by the Prime Minister.

To do our work, we all have to read a mass of papers.
Nearly all of them are far too long. This wastes time,
while energy hes to be spent in looking for the essential
points,

I ask my colleagues and their staffs to see to it
that their Reports are shorter.

(i) The aim should be Reports which set out
the main points in a series of short, crisp
paragraphs.

(ii) If a Report relies on detailed analysis
of some complicated factors, or on statistics,
these should be set out in an Appendix.

(iii) Often the occasion is best met by submitting
not a full-dress Report, but an Aide-memoire
consisting of headings only, which can be
expanded orally if needed,

(iv) Let us have an end of such phrases as these:
"It is also of importance to bear in mind
the following considerations......", or
"Consideration should be given to the
possibility of carrying into effect.....".
Most of these woolly phrases are mere padding, which
can be left out altogether, or replaced by a
single word. Let us not shrink from using
the short expressive phrase, even if it is
conversational.

Reports drawn up on the lines I propose may at first seem
rough as compared with the flat surface of officialese jargon.
But the saving in time will be great, while the discipline of
setting out the real points concisely will prove an aid to
clearer thinking.

I forget the details of the memo, but reading Wikipedia, this criticism resonated with my memory:

“It mischaracterizes some sex differences as universal”

My sister is also on the spectrum like James has said he is. One of her struggles is ironically in understanding spectra in other areas like gender differences.
Starting up a farm (even a hobby farm) is an enormous capital investment.

> Farm Ownership Loans can be used to purchase or expand a farm or ranch. This loan can help with paying closing costs, constructing or improving buildings on the farm, or to help conserve and protect soil and water resources.

> USDA’s Farm Service Agency offers up to $600,000 for eligible borrowers through Farm Ownership Loans.

> Farm Operating Loans can be used to purchase livestock, seed and equipment. It can also cover farm operating costs and family living expenses while a farm gets up and running.

> USDA’s Farm Service Agency offers up to $400,000 for eligible borrowers through Farm Operating Loans.

Aside from the "grow things" there is an enormous amount of business sense and domain knowledge (what to grow when, how to fix that thing now, does this other thing need fixing?) that is needed to accompany it.
Ask yourself how many women approach and how many women expect to be approached. Now do the same for men.

Here's a bonus: ask men how many women turned 'crazy' after the first night of sex, and do the same for women.

It's almost as if the different sexes have different expectations and modus operandi.
It's free, but it requires also running Postgres and Clickhouse servers instead. I'm short on RAM so I wanted something lightweight even if the disk storage wasn't as efficient as a dedicated timeseries/event DB.
Meliora Therapeutics | San Francisco, CA and Full Remote | Full-time

Meliora Therapeutics is leveraging modern biology and machine learning to drastically improve the efficiency of cancer drug development. In short, the vast majority of cancer drugs fail in clinical trials, and off-target effects are often to blame. We're using sophisticated genomic and machine learning techniques to accurately characterize how drugs affect cells and thereby to develop new drugs more efficiently. Our platform has already surfaced a number of interesting candidate drugs with promising laboratory validation and we are just getting started.

Our founding team has strong experience in software, machine learning, and biology developed through experience at Google, Verily, Benchling, and the Yale School of Medicine to complement advanced degrees from universities such as MIT, Princeton, and UPenn. We are moving with urgency to capitalize on the opportunity ahead of us, and are fresh out of stealth after raising our $11mm seed round. We are backed by leading funds who were early investors in world class companies such as Gilead, Recursion, Insitro, Benchling, and others.

We're looking for talented, ambitious, and creative technical experts to join us in building a machine learning-driven cancer drug development engine. Some of our current open roles include:
- Machine Learning Scientist
- Machine Learning Engineer
- Data Scientist - Computational Biology

See our careers page for information on these and other roles and to apply: https://www.melioratx.com/careers. Previous experience in biology or computational biology is not required for every role.

Few/no small credit unions (or banks) have their own bespoke online portal they developed just for them. They use a vendor. I bet a few vendors would cover a pretty large % of those 20K banks.

+1 - You can imagine a whole set of classes that fall into the "Software Engineering" skills bucket (vs "Computer Science" skills) that would help prepare grads for their actual jobs. Technical writing would top this list for me.
I don't know how much you remember about the transition from BBSes to the internet, but the heavy handed moderation of FidoNet is one of the exact reasons we all flooded into UseNet when it started to become available, and most likely a big part of why "FidoNet" is consigned to history's dustbin despite being, at one time, the most popular forum discussion system.

I can't even tell what this blog post is complaining about, it seems so badly organized and written.

But it seems obvious that if "coffee" gives 2 billion results that, no, you're not going to be able to browse to page 187,398,384 to get those results. There's no use case for that for any normal consumer (as opposed to competitor, researcher, etc.). If you're capped at browsing the first 10 pages or whatever, that's entirely reasonable.

> A misconception regarding Google’s search results is that all of the results are being served to the user conducting that particular search.

That misconception lies only with the author. Nobody's being "served" 2 billion results, I don't even know what that would mean. The number of results being reported is quite obviously in order to allow users to judge the breadth of search queries. If it says 2 billion, you might want to refine. If it says 15 and they're all useless, go broader.

(It's useful for researching item popularity too, although that's been superseded by Google Trends which is built specifically for that.)
Because with virtual farming you don't have to shovel poop. You can also harvest an entire field with one mouse click. Pretty obvious why few people want to actually become farmers. Despite all the mechanization, it's still difficult, dangerous, and dirty.
Unscientific guess - trees are mostly carbon, so more CO2 can support more wood. Of course, we aren't simply adding CO2 while keeping everything else equal. Worse growing conditions due to drought or whatever don't help trees.
> GameFaqs should probably go back to its original owner.

I remember when that sale first happened and the owner announced everything would stay the same. He would be running things, his stance on advertising wouldn't change, and so forth.

I'm not sure if anyone actually believed that, but from what I recall the original owner (forget his name) said he was making $80/year and the stress levels were way too high. No one was shocked when he left.

What I'll tell you is that I used to be a huge fan of gamefaqs and I still visit it from time to time, but after gamespot bought them I started using them less and less. I don't know that it was anything specific they did to the site, it may have simply been me changing through life. But I do know I used to frequent the GD&P (Game Design and Programming) boards over there and they're basically a ghost town now.
I'll give you that (although that principle is so generic it isn't even actionable in practice). But if you asked the average person in the U.S. who has a portfolio (I believe it's only like 50% of Americans hold stock), I'd imagine a good deal of them couldn't even tell you what companies they own.
In my (fairly extensive) experience, most women do desire a man who can take care of himself and contribute financially to a partnership. Though that doesn't explain the many, many examples I have seen of relationships where a responsible and employed woman takes care of an unemployed/semi-employed man-child.
