It makes me wonder if they engage in "play" does it evoke some "emotion" in them such as joy etc? some reward maybe? and if it does does other scenarios evoke other emotions we consider to be human centric. Anyone have a link to a good paper regarding it?
Such a mode would be… a CSS stylesheet.
I'm confused, are they actually getting the plaintext content of HTTPS traffic, or are they just harvesting connection metadata? Not that bulk metadata collection isn't bad, but getting access to unencrypted data would be much worse.

Honest, good faith question here. One stated goal of building this is because you "deleted most social media, but still wanted a way to keep in touch with friends and my network." How does this solve that? Keeping in touch is not about the web presence, it's about the network. How does this work differently than something like about.me?
Scale is the same. The CPI reports every month. It's one chart, a single index, one point per month.

They just take the recent point and the point from a year ago and do the math and report the change. For mom they do the recent point and the one before that, do the math and report.

Some people actually know what the CPI is, how it gets reported, and understand the shortcomings of said reporting. If you aren't one of those people, it's silly to go around correcting others.
On the other hand, they prevent middleboxes from providing any value as well. I don't mean stupid nonsense like corporate TLS man-in-the-middle, but also.... load balancers.
If the culture is adhocracy then leaderless teams are extra effective. Though a self organising or autonomous team can thrive in any organisation. For example Toyota in the glory days of TPS. Where individuals took up their role in driving change and attending the needs of colleagues.
This kind of response makes it real tempting to just sell it on the market instead...
Async in general (not just python) doesn’t speed up any computation.

The value is allowing you to do something else while waiting for IO to finish. If you are constantly doing IO, async is a good tool. Otherwise, it won’t help.

I think about Tom from myspace all the time. He's not a billionaire, but he cashed out for tens of millions and is living the best life.
I think viewing this within the domain of the count of problems one is attempting to solve at once isn't the proper perspective. I work on the basis of Risk Containment, which often ends up meaning "solve one problem at a time", or "develop list of problems and solve one problem at a time". But often there is risk choosing that approach.

Example: a couple of years back, I needed to do a new web app. I could have relied on my tried-and-true jQuery and HTML 5 skils. But with all I had read about Vue and the examples I saw led me to the conclusion I might do better timeline-wise (thus, reduced risk) by using the web app as a vector to learning Vue. I wasn't wrong, things went much faster once I get the hang of how to Vue. My client was so impressed with the work, he asked if I was just middle-manning a white-labeled tech solution from a third party. (Thanks bootstrap-vue!)

How would that have turned out if I did jQuery / HTML 5 then a rewrite into Vue to keep it "one problem at a time"? It might have taken 2.5-4x as long.

Anyway I look at the "solve one problem at a time" as a useful tool in the tool belt. But it is not an overriding principle. Risk Containment is that principle. A few years back, this was a peripheral tactic, even an afterthought. I've been working with some Risk Containment Ninjas for a couple of years, and the key lesson for me, the iterations are shorter in duration, the cost is less, and the idea evolves to a better end result. It forces you to think about every tiny piece of a project as driving home a MVP.
Less distinctive than what? The original logo was a trend with thousands of logos looking like generic versions of each other. Was Revolut's logo distinctive back then? No. Then years later many logos followed a new trend and became another flavor of "not distinctive". I am not saying that old or new logo is better: they are all pretty generic. Always have been. We only recognize them as having character when we look at past iterations because we are so used to the current ones. Saying that, in my view the old logo was really ugly. The new one is just really generic.
Personally, I find it deeply unattractive, especially because of the way the solid part breaks at the top to leave room for the bizarre striped part of the O (whereas in the lower part, it looks much better, giving both some sense of perspective and a beautiful continuous shape).
So much deception and lies.

Graham introduced a 15-week limit on abortions, not an outright ban: https://www.dailywire.com/news/sen-lindsey-graham-introduces...

15 weeks is similar to the limit in France and most European countries, which lean far more left than the U.S: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_in_France

Also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_in_Europe

France only allows abortions up to 14 weeks unless doctors certify the mother's life is a risk. Graham's bill similarly "offers exceptions for rape, incest, and the protection of the life of a mother during pregnancy." And The bill also "prohibits the prosecution of women who seek abortions."

The point is: framing the proposed law as a "ban" is disingenuous because no one thinks abortion is banned in Europe, and yet this law is completely in line with European abortion policy. But dishonest framing is what the democrat party is all about, unfortunately.

The reality is that abortion gets more obviously bad for both humans involved the later the abortion occurs.

https://www.liveaction.org/news/researchers-abortionists-abo...

"That study found that a woman’s risk of death from abortion increased by 38% for each additional week of gestation. Compared to women who underwent abortions at or before eight weeks (two months), women who underwent abortions in the second trimester were found to be “significantly more likely to die of abortion-related causes.” The results showed that “[u]p to 87% of deaths in women who chose to terminate their pregnancies after 8 weeks of gestation may have been avoidable if these women had accessed abortion services before 8 weeks of gestation.”"

And from the baby's perspective:

https://www.operationrescue.org/about-abortion/late-term-abo...

"a lethal dose of the heart medication Digoxin is injected into the baby’s heart or into the amniotic fluid directly through the woman’s abdomen. (Potassium chloride is infrequently substituted for Digoxin.) Digoxin gives the baby a fatal heart attack."

Not exactly a peaceful or painless way to die! However, the alternative method, dismemberment, is even worse!

https://www.frc.org/dismembermentabortion

If you want to abort, you should do it quickly, both to cut down on your own risks and to limit the pain and suffering of the human whose life you are ending. I would not like to experience death by heart attack or dismemberment either, if I can avoid it. And laws that protect the health of its citizens are clearly in scope. A late-term ban protects the health of adult women. That's one of the reasons these restrictions exist in other parts of the world.

Every now and then I fly in a small plane that takes me from a major hub to my hometown about 200 miles away. Basically if I’m already at the airport coming off another flight, it’s easier just to hop on a plane than Uber an hour away across the metro and then drive back down south.

The plane only has 55 seats and no premium seats. I see tall people struggle all of the time.

It's a browser extension that you link to multiple services (currently just Figma, Google Docs, and GitHub) then you can correlate different work items (a Figma sketch (?), a GitHub PR and Google Docs, any amount of them) then you will be able to see comments from all of them in one place, the extension, regardless of which work item you are on.

The basic idea is to expose engineering thoughts to design to product so everyone sees everyone talking without add'l friction.

So say design is discussing changing something, the engineer(s) on the project would see it in their context of GitHub.

There seems to be one other new thing: "Any QUIC endpoint that supports QUIC version 2 MUST send, process, and validate the version_information transport parameter specified in [QUIC-VN] to prevent version downgrade attacks.", with that QUIC-VN being another draft which also seems to have been approved for publication at the same time (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-quic-version-neg...). So if I understood it correctly, what's actually new is the version negotiation mechanism, with QUIC version 2 being its first user.
Personal websites should be personalized tho. It's like Facebook vs Myspace. Myspace allowed you to easily personalize your page, and there were tons of really cool unique pages. Facebook killed personal expression; you get to pick a cover photo, a personal photo, make posts, and that's it. Then they dominated the world, and an entire generation grew up never knowing that the internet used to be fun.
No. Give another site a chance.
The difference is 30 years of websites and tools being built on HTML. There's an opportunity cost to consider: is formatting simple websites in Markdown and rendering them natively that much more valuable than simply writing them in HTML or using a Markdown-to-HTML tool that it's worth the cost of creating standards, implementing them in browsers, etc. as opposed to putting those efforts elsewhere?

If you were starting from scratch, maybe. But it seems like we've already reached a point where existing solutions for Markdown-to-HTML get you almost all of the value and none of the cost.
What I find interesting is for both SARS1 and MERS they were able to find an intermediate animal responsible for the spillover within months. Another key difference with SARS2 and SARS1/MERS is that when spillovers from an intermediate animal such as ferrets/camels happen it always spills over in many locations over time since the virus is circulating within the intermediate animal population. So you'll find unrelated outbreaks in different geographic locations each with slightly different mutations present.

But with SARS2 there seems to only have been on single outbreak, and we have not been able to find the intermediate species where the spillover occurred. On top of that both SARS1/MERS the outbreaks displayed traceable mutations that occurred as it adapted to humans, initially being poorly suited for humans. SARS2 on the other hand was perfectly adapted for humans.
Mine appears to be similar to that of grocery stores.

I also happen to have a Sam's Club membership (for now, really weighing whether its worth having since Costco has become even better in my area in terms of what they stock) and they have a nifty thing I actually like, which is you can check out via your phone, so you just scan the items as you put them in the cart, and then pay at the end. The only thing you have to do is show the generated QR code receipt to the door person.

Since I have been bringing my own bags / storage to stores like this for years anyway, its perfect for me, I just scan and bag as I go, and its bagged how I like it to be (IE, cold things are actually in my cold bag, and I have this accordion fold out I can put everything else in, its super nice when I get home) and genuinely faster. It lets me optimize the experience for me without bogging anyone else down either.

This kind of self-checkout I like, the app driven version. I hate all other versions for any other shopping. I really hope Costco adopts this in their app. Honestly, grocery stores would do well to adopt something similar IMO
Not sure why this is getting gray because this absolutely was the plan back in march of 2020. I recall UK government stating “everybody will get it, we just need to buy a few weeks to prepare hospitals for the hordes of sick patients”.

Then when those field hospitals closed virtually unused, instead of lifting restrictions and celebrating Covid wasn’t as bad as predicted, society decided to double down on the mitigations and continue them for two years.
Nuclear, in this exact context, I had meant monogamous, specifically not multiple women per man. Grandparents being included is almost moot, but culturally were very important, everywhere/when.

Before agriculture, specialization / modern civilization, and the _medical revolution_, of course you were going to have multiple women - most died in childbirth, and the ones that lived were too dependent to stand up on jealousy grounds.
Well I define random to mean whenever P(X|Y) is neither always 1 nor 0, or to put that in causal modal terms:

given an exhaustive description of all possible causes of Y, say X, then if X causes Y, *NECESSARILY* Y given X

causation is a form of necessity, necessarily Y occurs or it doesnt

In this case P(Future|Past) and P(Past|Future) are somewhere between 0 and 1. This isnt consistent with causation.

ie., All possible information about all possible causes of Y (the future), say X (the past) are insufficient to gaurentee any given Y (any particular future).

The "interpretation" element of QM is to say that we are really in this case, ie., that we have X = all possible information.

There are several ways of denying that P(Y|X) in the case of QM should be read this way. You can say X is incomplete, either by saying there is non-local information we don't have, or global information we don't have. Of the "global" kind, which of many worlds we are in is a kind of global ignorance.

So that if we had, P(Y|X, which-world) then we'd observe P(Y|X, whichworld) = either 1 or 0 --- as with classical mechanics

P(CatDead|PoisonBox, worldA) = 1

P(CatDead|PoisonBox, worldB) = 0

etc.

and, eg., P(F|G,M,m,r) = 1 if F=GMm/r^2

You are right. Even though there were cases in 2008 they weren't significant contributors to the great recession.
The Ontario Teachers Pension Plan invests in tons of things, it's like CALPERS. They're present on the cap table of nearly every company you've heard of because they have a hundreds of billions of assets and are chasing yield. They didn't have money on FTX, but had invested in FTX like they do with tons of other VC investments.
the problem with using swarm IMO is forming dependencies around it. i've found that it is easy enough to get started with, but scaling it to any degree is asking for trouble. it also doesn't help that swarm seems all but abandoned now that Docker spends a lot of time bolstering the built-in Kubernetes experience.
I don't say that asyncio gives you nothing! Go for it with your DB access if you have already gone async in your design.

But often the lower-hanging fruit is doing more joins in the DB, fetching fewer columns, and writing your query more thoughtfully. Async only helps if you can do something while waiting for the DB to complete your query. A common anti-pattern, exacerbated by ORMs, is doing a bunch of small queries while passing bits of data between them in Python; moving that to asyncio won't help much, if any.
One can only balk so much at the cost of housing, energy, and food, before one is homeless, cold, and hungry.

Housing has been hard to balk at for a decade for the same reason that nobody politically wants to address: a lack of supply in the market. Renters are now doubly stuck in renting, as home ownership as an alternative market is now rendered unaffordable by spiking mortgage rates. (I.e., the very "demand destruction" the fed desired. And my landlord knows it!)

Energy prices are spiking due to … a lack of supply in the market.

Still, the rate is allegedly +7% YoY, apparently, and my rent goes up +9.5% YoY "due to economic conditions", and my salary is -1% YoY.
Why not contribute or extend existing projects like GrapheneOS or LineageOS? These both have excellent time-tested documentation.

If you stay out of the weeds in the community and focus on the technical aspects, you can easily get a supported device up and running with your own signing key, update server, and everything else needed.

I did for years, before switching to GrapheneOS.

Because getting rich is one of the hardest things to do in society. It’s getting power + stability in one fell swoop and is everything humans are biologically built to value.
Japanese is worse. You count "1 thing", "2 thing", "3 thing", except the word for "thing" changes depending on the shape of the thing you are counting.

So thin flat things like paper or shirts are 1 mai, 2 mai, 3 mai, while to count books you say 1 satsu, 2 satsu, 3 satsu.

Long round things like pencils or umbrellas go 1 pon, 2 hon, 3 bon, 4 hon, 5 hon, 6 pon, etc (yeah you read that right).

There are different counter words for different kinds of animals, small things, vehicles, shoes, drinks, people, etc.

Why aren’t more nurses opting to become traveling nurses?
This guy said there was lipstick on his drinks straw. That seems rather definitive.
English, unlike a lot of the big European languages, doesn’t have a central controlling body and hasn’t gone through powerful standardisation efforts - beyond dictionaries (i.e. consistent spelling and meaning). many (most?) European languages follow pretty consistent conjugation and pronunciation rules. yeah there are a few exceptions in each case, but nowhere near the scale of English.

grammatical gender is in most cases only really as hard as learning the words themselves
Regardless of the intent, the response is incongruous to the prompt.

A: This is the job; take it or leave it.

B: You don't really want me to leave it.

Maybe A does or doesn't want that, but how does that have any bearing on B's decision-making? Let's call a spade a spade. The nurses who are not quitting are doing so because (they think) the job is still good; it's just not as good as it was a few years ago. The nurses quit did so because (they thought) they could get a better deal doing something else.
It's different in a lot of ways. The most important one that you've missed is that banks don't need to have enough liquidity to cover customer deposits, but they do need to have enough assets. If a bank's assets ever drop below its liabilities, it is immediately liquidated, the shareholders lose everything, and insurance steps in to fix any gaps.

SBF has neither liquidity nor assets sufficient to cover its deposits, because most of his assets was a pile of worthless fartcoin that he printed for himself, but pretended that it was worth billions. And because he was not properly audited[1], his equity wasn't immediately liquidated to cover the gap, when the gap could still be covered.

... Also, reserve requirements have nothing to do with this particular failure case. They have everything to do with issuing loans, and the rate at which money is created (inflation!), but this wasn't a failure caused by issuing loans.

[1] It's weird how VC due diligence seems to go out the window as soon as their money starts funding a hot new crypto scam. It's almost as if they are playing a heads-we-win-big, tails-we-lose-nothing-but-our-investment game...

Money is fungible, so it would always be helping the employer pay an employee.

When a person decides to become a waiter versus a cook or a janitor, they are including potential income due to tips and lack of tips in their calculations. Thereby, the potential of tips always reduces the need for an employer to pay more.
Actually Sam hopefully understands Kelly criterion in which people optimize for log(EV), in which case here not wagering is the Kelly optimum.
It's somewhat amusing to read this criticism on a website primarily populated by people in the software industry, which is hardly a paragon of accurate estimation and forecasting. Proportionate excesses (i.e. 10X over-budget) may not be the norm, but they are hardly rare, and they are always for projects far more prosaic than launching a telescope into space.

What is a midwestern forklift driver giving up when they buy the 150k house? Just a few years ago I was raising a family in HALF of a duplex that was worth 80k. My kid had their own room, a nice big yard to play in, close proximity to parks and outdoors, water electricity and internet for kids shows or whatever. Are you saying I was depriving my family of something huge that I otherwise could have provided them?
Well, there were a good few hundred years of classicism, and then a good few hundred years of gothic architecture, and then another hundred or so of baroque and so on. It's not that uncommon for whole periods to be dominated by a single architectural style.

I am with you in bemoaning the fact that there are so few art deco and art nouveau buildings, though - those styles passed by far too quickly.
