> What has happened in the last few decades is that none of the big parties have enough votes to get majority on their own, so they have to work together with smaller parties. This creates an inversion of power, where the smaller parties gain significantly more influence than the number of seats would indicate.

The US also has that, the different is that its less visible, and the minor factions have more power because:

(1) the minor factions are esconced within major parties, so there is no public discussions about coalitions, and

(2) because of #1, and because such arrangements are stickier, the major factions have less choice as to which minor faction to make a majority with, making them more at the mercy of the minor and extreme factions theybare bound to.

For those there was also a system called "Firewall", which shields the end user from the underlying Lisp in some way.

Then there were also delivery systems on the Ivory. There was even a stripped down Lisp operating system called Minima for those, IIRC.
Yes, stealth viruses did report memory without their space, by monitoring the read, and returning the "clean" value instead.

Boot sector viruses couldn't do anything like that because they load and run before DOS enters the picture. So that was one of the things my boot sector looked for. File infectors had a number of tricks at their disposal, one of which you just mentioned. Other methods are still similar, just different means to that end.

> From the original survey (mrntioned in the NY Times articke)...Of 82 319 respondents who completed the Patient Health Questionnaire–9 (PHQ-9), a total of 3904 nonoverlapping individuals reported prior COVID-19 illness and completed the survey questions used in this analysis

What's interesting - and more telling? - is they didn't evaluate the non-Covid people. That is, how has the broader population fared mentally over the same timeframe? If that's 40 to 50% then being infected is a non-issue (or close). Without that comparison, the core survey has no context. Without that context the study has severely diminished value.

I have a feeling that you haven't worked in academia.

There are no tenured jobs that are easy to get, for the simple reason that firing tenured faculty is intentionally difficult. Tenure-track positions at any reputable university, and even disreputable ones, are highly competitive are require a history of research, in addition to the PhD. Mostly fresh PhDs need to do at least one post-docs in order to be considered for tenure-track. In particular, the offer of a tenure-track position is contingent on the expectation of future research output, which is not consistent with the OP's goal of taking a few months off.
This is the main reason why I use graphql on my Ruby web projects. The client flexibility is nice. Performance issues from wonky queries sent from clients can be a pain to debug - thankfully it’s an internal API so I can work directly with the client devs to create optimal queries. But the strong type guaranties and schema validation is the main reason why I prefer graphql over rails controllers with strong parameters.

Point is, that's not Google or Instagram's lawyer, just some random "trademark lawyer" who's not part of the dispute at hand.

Anyway, OP's argument doesn't resonate with me. The app store isn't a common carrier. Google doesn't need "valid legal reasons" to reject an app other than what is stated in their own terms. And just because Meta says it's okay to use "for Instagram" doesn't mean that Google is compelled to accept that reasoning. Thousands of different trademarked companies use Google Play. Does OP think Google going to have a different individualized policy for each company?

Here's what Google responded to OP, in part:

> The app also infringes Instagram’s rights in the registered INSTAGRAM mark by using “for Instagram” in the app branding without any other branding that is distinctive to the app. Such use is likely to create confusion by implying an association or other relationship with, or authorization by, Instagram when no such relationship or authorization exists.

The name of the app is

InPlan - Planner for Instagram

To me, that very much sounds like it's an app named InPlan put out by Instagram itself, and could be confusing. I agree with Google rejecting this title. Maybe if it was "InPlan - Unofficial Planner for Instagram" or "InPlan Planner (for use with Instagram)"

Plus, I question OP's interpretation of Instagram's policy. They quote Instagram's policy as stating:

> If you offer an app, website or a product or service that uses the Instagram APIs or is otherwise compatible with or related to Instagram, you may only use Instagram to say that your app is "for Instagram" or that the name of your campaign is "on Instagram" in a descriptive manner.

"In a descriptive manner" to me implies that "for Instagram" may be used in the description of the app, not the title of the app. I'm no lawyer, if the trademark attorney says it's okay, then it probably is, from a trademark perspective. But maybe not from the perspective of Google wanting the Play Store to clearly differentiate first-class brands from third party applications.
I find it deeply unsettling that you'd consider it normal/common to upgrade 4 digit (is that all Apple?) devices every 2 years, or that folks would need so many different form factors in the first place.

Just thinking of the literal mountains of ewaste gives me goosebumps.
I didn't find the quiz there but it looks like there's a standard test for LPR where if your score is 13-15 or above means you probably have it.

I've done it and being "reasonable" and not exaggerating on my answers, my score is 20, so it could be it. Symptoms are there and there's no heartburn or typical reflux.

In any case it looks like I'm doomed.

Michael Caulfield...describes this process as setting a scene. “Propagandists have an agenda, but they don’t get to choose the material they have to work with,” he told me. “Something is discovered. A piece of data is found. Someone dies. The trope is a recipe for connecting the novel element to the overarching narrative in a formulaic way. And it’s immediately familiar to the audience.”

> so it's not like it's saving any work

The "work" the GP is trying to save here isn't CPU cycles, but rather developer labor — the redundant labor of writing both a form view that describes form inputs, and a form-value schema validator to be called from the controller that receives the form's submitted input values.

Generating the signature, and validating the signature, would both be done transparently by middleware components of the framework, with no marginal developer labor required per form.
Time and Energy
I interviewed at a very successful startup last year that was basically doing the exact same thing as mighty. But they were selling it as primarily a security advantage (since its effectively an air gap computer) with additional advantages to performance.

The product itself was basically identical to Mighty. However, because it was marketed as a Security tool, they got customers from 9 of the 10 largest world banks, several government agencies, and so forth who bought licenses for every employee due to the security advantages that having an ephemeral server in the cloud provides. The companies enjoyed that there was also a performance benefit and they could skimp on physical workstations as a secondary benefit. But the product was selling licenses by the pallet load because of the security aspect, the performance was just a bonus.

Like I said, the product was effectively identical to what Mighty was doing. I think it was even younger than Mighty and was vastly more successful due to its market positioning.

It's easy to find studies connecting metformin to weight loss and loss of appetite. I'll leave that to you, just use Google and you'll be swamped with evidence.

You say you've never heard of metformin affecting food palatability and taste? Did you search the web at all? Just use Google if you want anecdotal examples. For example:

https://forum.diabetes.org.uk/boards/threads/loss-of-appetit...

I joined as after 18 months on metformin, my appetite and enjoyment of food is constantly declining. I’ve lost about 10 kg over that time, which is not a problem. But I’ve lost my appetite and, as a keen cook and someone who has always enjoyed good food, I no longer look forward to meals and get little pleasure from food.

or

https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/anyone-experience-l...

Metformin changed the taste of food slowly during the time I took it. It finally got to the point where all vegetables tasted like burnt plastic. This meant that I didn't want to eat them.

And so on. Now you've heard of it! All it took was a web search.
Twitter eliminated ~4,400 of its ~5,500 contract employees yesterday
It's all automated for each one, and yeah they write the metadata into the folder. I have Radarr/Sonarr/Prowlarr + Ombi + rtorrent, which pretty much automates everything. I just type in what I want and it shows up in all 3 a minute or two later. Sonarr also keeps track of TV schedules, so if it's a new show that is still airing it automatically shows up when a torrent of it becomes available.

No one just sits on USDC dude. They get it so that they can stake it on BlockFi at 7% or whatever. https://images.ctfassets.net/s9sj79zoigw1/4TEIhHwGu5G59I3oIx...

If you just turn USD into USDC, you end up losing money, because savings accounts are at 3% these days (https://www.capitalone.com/bank/savings-accounts/online-perf...).

--------

People who want 1 fund == $1 get savings accounts and/or money market funds (depending on their risk tolerance. Savings Accounts are safer but earn less. MMFs have fewer regulations and can therefore offer slightly better rates but for that extra risk).

Anyone promising 7% returns is lying to you. That's far above what even the "riskier" MMFs offer.

-----------

Anyway, USDC is just a really weird bond market, where you end up offering loans (which are called "stakes" for some reason) to shady companies at far below market rates (ex: CCC Debt was 10% APY to 16% APY if you bought it on the open market. But if its "Staking" with BlockFi, it only earns 7%). Instead of thinking if these companies would return their money back, people handed money over-and-over to these other companies and wondered why it didn't come back.

If you really want to lend money to shady companies, I suggest finding rated bonds (even junk bonds) and playing with that instead.

Earnings reports are out and FAANG companies are showing drops in revenue. So I don't think their layoffs are entirely due to over hiring or simply using a looming recession as an excuse.
Honestly, at this point in our hyperpartisan world, I expect monsterous FUD about pretty much anything. There was just a small scale war in my city about a proposal to slightly modify the way our library is funded. If that gets people riled up, then one can only imagine what multi trillion dollar industries can stir up.
So it follows that the most sensible political policies/processes that could stand a chance of keeping Sci-hub from burning down are also tied to policies/processes that could stand a chance of keeping the police from being mobilized as useful idiots at the behest of any corporation big enough (whatever those processes are).

It may very well be the case that law enforcement overreach and corruption is gnawing at the very pillars of civilization.
I'm just of the opinion that whatever next steady state situation we might find out on the other end of a crypto-world isn't necessarily going to be better, or relatively better enough.

The more I see crypto come up, the more I become convinced that actually, perhaps it's for the best after all that the government controls the financial sector. Human in the loop sort of idea.
That just increases the motivation of extrajudicial actors.

This is in ObsidianMD, which uses CommonMark.

If you have two lists separated by only new lines:
https://imgur.com/IFejJvX

They render as loose lists (note the ugly spacing that appears) regardless of the number of new lines between them:
https://imgur.com/VEiAZKV

The workaround is adding a tab (or other character, like a braille space) between the lists, which really makes them one list:

Which makes it render in a less worse way:

This is expected behavior per CommonMark.

As a corporate open source developer, we would be forced to switch off mold immediately if we were using it, for at least two reasons:

1) Whether or not we could get finance to pay for a license, we would not be willing to force the rest of our community to pay.

2) What is a "user"? A developer seat? What if CI / CD has a public facing github queue? Are people submitting PRs users? Do end users of our service count?

I'd strongly suggest a "call for pricing" model until you have good answers to the above. (Good == what the market will bear; figuring out will require you to initiate run ~ 100 customer calls).

Also, why revert to GPL, not AGPL3 or Apache? GPL is a weird middle ground these days. "Some users get Freedom, but unlike with AGPL, Google, AWS and *aaS users get to pound sand. Also, unlike Apache, maybe we will patent troll you later."

This stuff is hard. Good luck!

> All political parties are filled with petty power seekers

Sure, but with more than two viable parties, you have more incentive to run on a positive message, because driving people away from one particular opponent or demobilizing their base, especially in a way that alienates your voters but to a lesser extent, is not as effective a campaign tactic when its not 1-on-1.
It may also be because those flaws are trite comments with clear answers that just get repeated in a meme-like fashion. I cannot tell you how many people I say that are worried about ranging anxiety, for example, but go on maybe one long trip per year.

There are so many non-technical jobs in tech companies, which are so much better in the hands of someone that understands technology. Consider the skills and knowledge you have, and see where else you can apply them.

Really, I have multiple end profiles that are possible.

1. My phone
2. My wife's phone
3. My Tablet
4. My TV

They each have different screen geometries and even my tablet has two profiles really, local streaming at home or playing downloaded media on trips.

So I could transcode everything to 5 different formats and store it, or just transcode on demand and not worry about it.
Exactly. Thus it was probably not a mistake. It’s very hard for me to believe such a ridiculous explanation.
