Obviously if this succeeds, then the life-saving implications are tremendous. It would become practical to keep a stock of lab-grown blood in ambulances, as it can just be rotated out when it expires, but the immediate availability of blood in the field can mean the difference between life and death.

I just hope that blood donation doesn't go away as a result. There are both ethical and personal benefits - ethical, because it's a visceral experience of doing something good for society that most people can do, and with little effort; personal, because of potential health benefits from donating blood, see e.g. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle... .

however, computer synthesizers can do better than a pipe organ too eg, produce waveforms < 20hz, even say 1hz aka low frequency oscillators. of course, they may not be audible but used for other things like volume control. i guess its impossible to produce such low frequencies in the real world or at least fit such an instrument into a concert hall. maybe an alpine horn or similar. would be nice to hear of such instruments in the real world.
Just because something is different from something that doesn't work doesn't mean the different thing will work: most things don't work.

I'm not seeing anything in your description that couldn't also be said about using PKI to allow people to sign stuff they published. (And better: it's not broken by non-deceptive edits, like cropping or brightness adjustments)-- except that PKI already exists so we can't imagine that it would magically solve these problems. :) (and there is a long long history of people thinking varrious PKI ideas will magically solve varrious problems and then failing to solve them at all)

(I mean cameras that produced 'signed' output is also a thing that has previously existed too: https://blog.elcomsoft.com/2011/04/nikon-image-authenticatio... and was never particularly popular even with the target market)
From CNN:

"Back in the 1990s, the Justice Department charged several elite colleges with price-fixing, including many current members of the 568 Presidents Group. Those colleges regularly communicated and gave "essentially the same financial aid award" to any student who was admitted to multiple schools, according to congressional research. The suit ended with a settlement, and a 1994 law allowed colleges to keep working together on financial aid packages."

"In writing the law, Congress specified that its goal was to spread the benefits of financial aid as broadly as possible."

And if they're discriminating against lower-income families, that aid won't go to those who ostensibly need it most. Being that the filthy poors won't receive that aid, they will pay more.

The dismissal was refused in August, the case is proceeding, I expect there is something veracious about it, huh?
> When I boil pasta, I use full heat to get the water boiling, drop in the pasta, then let it come back up to a boil, then drop the temperature as low as possible to keep a slow boil going--about medium-low.

Do you put a lid on the pot?

If not, you're running a reboiler. If you were to do that in a region of the earth and season of the year where you have to heat your place you'd probably be wasting double. Because the additional moisture from evaporation has to be removed from your place later through ventilation.

It always baffles me how many people don't care/know just how much less energy they could use to achieve the exact same result, just by putting a lid on.
Can I buy wifi-enabled bulbs that use these?

I use TP-link Kasa color-changing bulbs (although I'd be happy with any that can change colour temperature between daylight and candlelight), and the flicker sometimes bothers me.

I assumed the reason to use their own blood was to avoid detection. Presumably synthetic blood is weird enough that it becomes trivial to detect its presence that would make it a no-go for cheating.

How to host your Tailwind CSS and Jekyll personal blog on GitHub Pages
This is not a plea for feedback on whether or not Jekyll or Tailwind CSS are good or bad tools to build websites with.

Love them? Good! Hate them? Also fine! But if you have such a website and want to host it on GitHub Pages for free, it's not going to work out of box (unless you are using Tailwind CSS over CDN, or their "Play" version via JS). And here's what to do instead.
The concept is definitely not new. Another keyword to search for is Thermal Cooking. I have a Shuttle Chef Thermal Cooker / Thermo Pot for that. It's basically an insulated pot to retain the heat. You heat up your food for a short time on the stove, then you put the pot into the insulating pot and let it rest there for some time. But you have to get the timing right, otherwise everything just ends up being mushy.

How does one make the leap from "a source available but otherwise proprietary license" to a copyleft license? As I understand the terms, perhaps in too limited a way, a proprietary license is never one in which others are free to build on the code or incorporate any part of it into their own works, and a source available proprietary license is just publishing source that no-one can use.

As for whether Copilot's morally wrong or not - I don't think copyright as a concept makes any sense at the level of the trivial, where Copilot _should_ be acting. If Copilot regularly reproduces sizeable portions of code from a single origin _without_ careful and deliberate guidance, I'd agree that there's a problem here. As I understand it though, that's not happening.

By its very nature of being published, code from OSS is funnelled into proprietary codebases by humans performing a similar task to Copilot - reading available code and using that to evolve an understanding of how to produce software. I like to think we do it at a deeper level than Copilot, but the general effect is the same: the code I write, like the words I write, are heavily influenced by all the code I've read over the years.

If I wind up using a few words from your comment, down the line, because some turn of phrase you used struck me as a good way to say something, do you think I've morally wronged you?

The questions you're asking are not really coherent. mRNA vaccines are pretty well understood. The vaccine delivers a payload to your own cells which cause them to produce viral proteins. These proteins in turn cause an immune response and help you fight off any future infection because immune cells have memory and leverage information from the vaccine proteins to fight off the real virus.

mRNA vaccines are essentially a form of genetic engineering but their safety record is better than basically all other forms of immunization so if you've already had 3 boosters and no negative side-effects then getting another one isn't going to hurt you any more than the previous shots.

You should also quit smoking and start exercising since that's better than whatever else you could do for your health and general well-being.

> It's still covered by copyright, but fair use is absolutely not in the picture, and whoever does publish it has no license whatsoever.

Remind me again, why is my used GPL3 licensed code considered fair use, and the EULA of Microsoft's code is not?

If a public repo doesn't contain a very permissive license, Copilot is still copyright fraud. And violating GPL-style licenses is still a license violation, which nullifies the right to use.
Correct. TikTok is a worse version of Facebook, funnelling data back to the CCP (as required), spying on certain individuals physical locations [0] on the platform, and creators are once again working for its algorithm that can dictate what is seen and unseen, for the content to be seen by billions, just like before.

They hype around it is because it is the current thing.

>there is no danger of closed private forks gaining any traction

grsec is a counter example to this claim
"some groups were "really, really rare" and there "might only be 10 people in the country" able to donate."

oooof.... I knew some blood type was rare, but this is another level.
And that is a big deal, the other part is simple maintenance. I looked into this and spotted a huge market where, these dealerships do import these keivans, keicars, etc but have no idea about the unique parts for them for basic things like spark plugs, oil filters, belts and such.

Some lines like the Suzuki Carry are great, same tail light assembly for 1998-2020, same timing belt, same accessory belt, etc but that is a big thing that everyone seems to forget. Everyone "fetishizes" these cars, but most can't turn a wrench, or know how to order parts for them.

So it becomes a huge sunk cost. At the other hand, if you import them en massee, you also have a solid basis of guaranteed business. You can self guarantee a "warranty" on them for a huge premium with a "Swap out" guarantee, in case of disaster (for example, kei car is purchaed $500 at auction, shipping to USA is about $800-2000, and retail is $4500-$10,000).

That's where the marketing and service catch is at. 3 months warranty, free swap out, and then when that expires you have a customer for life, because most shops will not work on a car they can't order parts from a USA national supplier, or have access to interchange catalog.

But then it would be semi easier just to export/import whatever car was on Gran Turismo/Gran Turismo 2/Animes e.g. Initial D because those probably have minor interchange support and if there was a USA model, then parts are most likely 100% available, just that the car is in a RHD configuration vs LHD.

Some cars like a R32/R33 skyline, MK3 Supra are $$$$ priced out eternally though.
It is different though, at least to the consumer.

Among my iPhone-owning friends, it is common to hear “they didn’t add X to Safari in iOS 16 but I hope they will in iOS 17” or “did you watch the iOS 16 promos? They’re adding X to Safari.” It is expected that major Safari features coincide with major iOS releases.
Actual short-selling has unlimited downside. You can hedge around that of course, but why bother when there's a route that limits downside in the first place?
I personally like Typora (https://typora.io/). It gets about as close to that state of flow as you can get, and it supports Markdown syntax. I use a Git workflow to track my writing, which definitely isn't for everyone, but I really appreciate the assurance it gives me. But that's probably because I already use Git for work.

Actually, I do write in a screenplay-like format sometimes. I call it "sketching" but there's probably a more formal name for it. Dialogue and action beats, and nothing else. It works well when I'm able to hear the characters in my head and I need to get their words down before I forget. Though there is a bit of a risk when you expand this into full scene, that your scenes tend to be very dialogue heavy. That's something I'm still working on.

More specific advice is a bit hard to give without knowing where you are. Are you stuck on getting any words out on the page at all? Or are you writing the opening to your story over and over because it never feels right? Or something else?

My experience was the first time I sat down to really write something, it felt horrible. I think I got about 50 words on the page after about an hour. It really was pretty discouraging, and of course the writing was bad too. I'm honestly not sure how I got through this phase. I think I just slogged through it because I cared enough about the story to keep going even though it sucked.

One thing that may have helped is that I keep a journal. The rule for my journal is "never write anything boring". I am very inconsistent about it, but it gave me a space, before I really had the fiction writing thing down, to at least practice getting words on the page. I've been putting down about 100 pages a year for the last 10-ish years, and I realized belatedly that in a way this was my writing practice. I may not have written 10 fiction books, but I wrote their equivalent (at least by word count) in my journal.

Reading helps too. I had stopped for a long time, and picking it back up has helped me really figure out what I want to be writing (usually because I have knee-jerk reactions to what I read, and that tells me something about how it's affecting me).

There's quote I encountered recently that really aligns with my philosophy of writing: "the first draft is telling yourself the story, latter drafts are telling the story you want readers to read" (Farah Heron, but she might have gotten it from somewhere else). What this means is that it's ok for the first draft to not be something anyone else is going to want to read. The most important thing is that you like what you're writing. For me, writing has become a better-than-reading experience. I read a fair amount of books these days, but because my tastes are particular, it's rare for me to find anyone who is writing exactly what I want.... but I can write it myself.

Hope something in here helps you out, and if there's anything else you want to ask, feel free to shoot me an email (find my contact info from my profile).

Having rail operators also act as real estate companies is pure genius IMO -- it creates a profit motive for dense, transit oriented development, without any need for onerous top-down planning.
There is value in learning to get unstuck by yourself. Possibly more than in progressing along a paved road.
Yeah this the thing - somehow those of us who chose not to over-extend in times of exuberance are the ones who lost out? I've been renting for a long time, but my market still doesn't let me buy a home that I could live in with my family for an amount that won't make me lose sleep when rates go up (like everywhere outside the US, most mortgages are ARMs here). Like many of this board, I'm in the upper-echelon of earners in my location, but I refuse to over-extend on a housing loan like many folks in my location.

The only difference is that recently I've resigned myself to the fact that maybe I'll never own in my current location - which even though may be emotionally sad, at least I don't have a crazy monthly payment for a shoebox apartment.

"the whole captain simulation system hadn't really been explored before"

There was a science fiction story a long time ago, probably from the 70s or 80s that I don't recall well enough to identify, but in the story people were playing a war game where each human player was sort of like a general without direct control over their side's forces. The simulation was extremely detailed and the battles were recreations of historical events, but the gameplay was very high level.

When WarCraft and StarCraft came along, I wasn't that impressed because the skills required seemed so micro-manage-y and unrealistic.

Has anyone ever come up with an AI that lets players be commanders at a very high level? Where things unfold in real time, with elaborate graphics, but without the ability to control each individual unit. Even if it was dumb, it could cause interesting problems with command and control.

This “feature” of lined up values annoys the hell of me when using Go (in particular) and also seems prevalent in Ruby-derived things. IMO unless you pinstripe line backgrounds, it makes it harder to trace which value maps to which key in the presence of a single longer key name. It also leads to noisier diffs.

Once the project is done, the money stops.

The bigger the project is, the more backers it needs. Many of these have to be bought. The people initiating the project don't have money to buy them, but the project budget does, or can. Adding that to the budget would make it a bigger project, needing more backing.

So, projects are under-budgeted, and overruns pay off backers. Nobody involved wants that money flow ever to end, so it goes over schedule.

Some projects avoid this fate. Solar and wind farms have transparent costs (N units x $M per unit), and start producing revenue almost immediately. Nukes suffer it most, because nobody knows how much any of it ought to cost, it takes forever, and it produces nothing until it is finished several changes of administration later.
Erm, there is a superstition in my region/country that say that you're sleepy at your birth time. So when I was in school, and I had hours at school until 2 PM (6 hours from 8 AM to 2 PM) and I was sleepy around that time then my mother revealed to me that I was born at 13:37, so that's how I know. And you know how parents are, they like to repeat some stuff throughout your life, like it or not. So I got drilled in my head what my birth hour:minute is.
