I figured as much. My point is that nothing in the paper abstract (I cannot access the actual paper) seems to necessarily imply adaptation as I assume you mean it, notwithstanding that that is the terminology the authors choose to use. Rather, the adaptation seems more like a semantic sleight of hand--if you look at each population in isolation, each responded as you might expect if there were no abrupt, substantial cultural changes. The southern population, which more heavily relied on hunting and lived in an environment where they could not easily shift to agriculture, declined; whereas the northern culture happened to live in an environment and with habits that benefited from the climate shift. But if you arbitrarily (from the perspective of aliens looking down from space) draw a circle around both populations, call them "Maori", and analyze relative changes in population over a specific window of time, you can elect to discern adaptation within that collective population.

You could just as well draw a circle around all of human civilization and write about how supremely adaptive humans are. Or you could draw a narrower circle around just that southern population and tell a story about how hopelessly rigid human cultures can be even in the face of impending doom.

Maybe the actual paper has some substance capable of supporting a more concrete claim of extraordinary adaptation (i.e. beyond what we typically see in human populations), but if so it's not apparent from the abstract.
I haven't until now. Yup, this article is stupid too - most of the list there is noise, or reaching. There are a few good leads, but even taken together, they're hardly enough to justify the current level of vitriol.
It's like the moon - provided the moon can only be explored with a pre-booked tourist bus, and any exploration on foot, or collecting of samples is strictly prohibited. Which is probably fine for a nature reserve, I just thought it deserves mention.

This isn't by far my biggest gripe with Lanzarote. That would be that after visiting about 10 years ago, I wondered whether they do geothermals, being in the absolute perfect position to do so. And then figuring out that because of not wanting a new power plant built on the island, they import oil by tanker ship, then burn it for electricity.

edit: they burn the oil. Not the ship.
Thanks for clarification, then it turns out to be simpler per your definition: Basically, git with remote origin is CI :) In this case, I'm pretty sure people that don't care about CI uses CI, but they don't care how its called.
It's not the user's job to figure out that it only happens in Florida on Tuesdays. They may not even be able to change all the relevant variables.

Apple developers should look at the stack trace that should either be sent automatically when it crashes (if privacy settings allow), or with a problem report sent from the device.

If this is a widespread issue, devs should have already gotten an automated alert.

Enforcing vaccination before it's possible to know the long-term effects, for all groups including those at low risk from Covid, was and is a terrible idea. Offering it to the elderly, obese and otherwise-at-risk, where there's a clear and obvious net benefit, was all that should have been done.
> For sites like Reddit, Twitter, Instagram, etc. The purpose of social media to me is mostly to ask for high quality answers if I need something.

I wonder how successful you were, because from my experience asking question about anything on reddit is completely meaningless, pretty much all people answering won't read further than title and provide useless answers and you end up doing extensive internet research on your own to find out nobody helped you. That was my experience through years and many tries with Reddit.

Highly recommended for Twitter - I don't want to waste my time with people agreeing with something completely against my values, they may be nice people under different circumstances and nice hypocrites (as shown through "pandemic"), but at least online I don't want to waste time with them. https://megablock.xyz

Yes, but in my experience the quality of your socks matters much more. A single wrinkle is gonna give you a nice blister within 5km. Get nice socks and pack blister bandages. Those things are like magic.

BlueWalker 3 is already being tracked by some of the night sky tracker websites, maybe get to see it next week here, but so far reported to have a brightness similar to a 1st magnitude star. The same company plans to launch 100 more larger 'BlueBird' satellites (mobile comms?). I had my telescope out a few nights ago and joked about a small child of the near future asking 'What's wrong with that star, it doesn't move...'
Absolutely. Not only the size, but the general shape and the technologies of the shoe. For walking/running (not hiking as the parent post is discussing) I like the Ultra Boost line of shoes with their "torsion system", breathable knit upper material, and lightweight foam outer sole. Comfiest shoes I own.
History shows you to be wrong. When you put people inside a steel cage where they are protected and cut off from everyone else, something happens with their psychology.

You can say that because we don’t have an agreed definition of a puzzle game. For me it’s as much a puzzle as chess or go, which is to say it isn’t. For my definition having only 1 intended solution is what separates abstract strategy games from puzzles.
Hylang doesn't add anything to your build pipeline, because of some tricks. Stack traces aren't that useful in Lisp but the bytecode refers to the actual source code positions.

Multiple languages are less of an issue when you have a small team or a team of one.

I'd be willing to use Hylang in production. I wouldn't go all-in, but rather pick something that looks like it needs a DSL. You can still interface with Python code interchangeably whenever you want, so there really is not much pain to abandon the attempt completely.

I think in my experience the size of the shoe matters hugely, more than the quality. Slightly too loose or slightly too tight will lead to blisters if you do an unusual (for you) amount of walking.
That kind of multitasking was one of the most impressive things about it. I could play four MPEG videos at once smoothly (with the interface and other windows still responsive) while Windows struggled to play one on the same hardware. That and it booted in 30 seconds including detecting and loading built-in drivers for all my hardware (Windows took 1-2 minutes and needed drivers manually installed).

I never used BeOS much though, as there wasn't much software available for it. This was in ~2000.
The US as far as I know is the only country where the government effectively underwrites 30 year fixed rate mortgages. Most other countries use adjustable rate mortgages.

Any country that uses primarily ARMs and had extremely low rates and was experiencing a bubble but has now seen large rate increases is about to see a brutal and expedited housing crash.

I heard an anecdote of a mortgage with an originally negative interest rate in the UK readjusting from GBP 1800 TO GB ~5000 per month this week. Brutal stuff.

As a guy living in Bucharest I can confirm that unfortunately that stuff is really happening.

It's kind of crazy when you think about it, i.e. the externality of regularly intoxicating about 2 million people with smoke that has the smell of some chemical trash so that some people further West can check the "we've done our part! we've recycled!" checkbox. All this while literally putting money in the Italian Mafia's pockets, as articles like this one [1] can attest to (in Romanian, but Google Translate can help).

Probably but it's one of many factors.

When I (not parent) went to the Camino de Santiago, I was already an experienced hiker (I could certainly walk 30kms in a day and I had done it many times) and I brought a good pair of shoes with me (that I used before without getting any blisters).

But my feet were just not ready to take 30km per day for many, many days in a row. It's one thing to do it just during weekends, doing it every day is a different beast.

Eventually it got better, but it took a while for me to get used to it (and a whole lot of Compeed plasters).

My advice for anyone who is going, would be to start gradually (maybe 10-15 km/day) and then over time go for longer and longer walks.

Edit: I totally agree with the sibling comment about socks being just as important, if not more, than shoes
If there's a reflection path from you to the sun hitting the panel, you're looking at a billboard-sized panel that's roughly as bright as the sun. It's far away, yes, but the stuff you're trying to look at is much much farther away, and much much less bright.
Back in the late nineties there was a Swedish web company called speedway-da.se or something like that (digital army) that linked to a site they made for their friends that grouped their personal blogs.

It was something short like bla404.something can't remember so I can't search archive for it either... but since speedway isn't there I think this was before archive existed.

Anyhow the point is; those "blogs" or home made diaries where incredible, pseudonymous before people realized that what you say on the internet can be stored forever so people really REALLY said the truth and I couldn't stop reading.

About relationships, funny tidbits and absurdities of life all mixed in the most honest and open communication I have ever witnessed, all made from scratch (html and pictures only at that time no .css an very little to no .js) AND designed from scratch AND self hosted!

To go back there you need some sort of cryptographic solution that ensures you can hide forever but even then the sort of information you are prepared to share now is not the same as back then when nobody knew/understood what privacy problems an indefinitely copyable/storable/shareable world brings.

Yeah, there is nothing complicated about returning a static array in C.

C is a much simpler language than many people assume -- of course, it can get really hairy and complicated especially when you need to do dynamic memory management, but that's not what the GP was asking for in this case.
It is sad for backyard astronomers but I am more concerned about these satellites falling onto our heads one day. When a 3rd world country starts sending their satellites with poor development this is going to be unavoidable. Another fear is ahead.

The original headline is “Despite praising free speech, Elon Musk fires Twitter engineers who criticize him online” but I had to trim it to fit the character limit. Hopefully the loss of the word “online” and changing “engineers” to “staff” doesn’t change the meaning too severely.

Germany and Russia were already immensely increasing their war production and military preparedness before 1940, throughout the 1930s. These amounts need to be taken into account when comparing to the UK, which really only started to take war production seriously as the war was pretty much starting. The lead time of the former was larger, and the dates above paint a skewed picture.

As for the USA, yes, holy shit, but it was also a country almost uniquely capable of achieving such a feat. Even more incredible is that it did that without even severely affecting the standard of living of its citizens, unlike the other countries, which all introduced very intense civil production rationing to pull off their more modest increases.

In the case of the USSR, fighting for its life and already an economy that barely focused on civil well-being, the doubling of war production and associated war expenses caused a gigantic famine in the immediate post-war years, while also causing massive suffering during the war years, and this aside from the brutalities introduced by the German invasion.
If I was trying to incorporate in the USA, and the registration form would be unable to process diacritics, sure — even though that would neglect a large part of your own population (see the ASCII debacle) — but we’re talking about internet services marketed globally.

I have over 20 years of experience with programming and I happily use Git without knowing how it works under the hood. It's not that I don't care how it works but I haven't had the time to learn about Git internals. Simple things like branching, merging, solving conflicts, push, pull, stash, reverting commits, pulling an older commit, blame and history are all I needed.

I have been a foreigner for a while now, so it would be against my own interests to wish for such things.

In some EU countries you have a termination period of 2 weeks during probation. Maybe that's a compromise? It's not the best, but it has to be good for everyone (foreigners and not) otherwise it risks to create the opposite: companies not hiring foreigners without visa anymore.

No geothermals at all. Spain as a whole is very late on renewables, some early adopters are just picking up air-source heat pumps and solar panels are starting to become wide-spread. It didn't help that there was a prohibitive tax on solar panels dubbed the 'sun tax' here that ended recently.
One word: mining. The moon has literal tons of helium-3 that, if brought back to Earth, would tank the market. yes it's a bit capital intensive too get started but the payoff is huge! Just need to borrow the particle physicists' budget for a second.

Wow. No. This is a really basic debugging feature that's been around for over a decade. You can also drag-and-drop the instruction pointer to another line, watch and change variables in real time, etc. I swear, every LISP-related thread has someone touting ancient features as if they are somehow new or unique.
This is a really interesting phrasing:
>> There were problems within Apple that made the development of the OS nearly impossible, and to solve these problems Apple sought to purchase something that was close to their own vision.

I think the truth is that Apple, and Apple + IBM worked on operating systems in this period and had trouble making a good one. Why it is hard for a mature company with legacy systems to create a new operating system is a difficult thing to explain. But it is not unusual. And worth understanding for people who want to innovate in large organizations.

The main point of linked lists in Haskell is that you can compute them lazily. So a Haskell list is more like a python "generator", a callback function that gives you the next element. This is nice because we don't need a separate interface for generators, streams, ranges, etc.; they are all just lists in Haskell.

If you force computation of a whole list sand save it, the representation in memory would be just a basic linked list. But that's not really recommended as it's a quite inefficient way to store and work with non-tiny amounts data.

There are also true arrays in Haskell which are not very useful due to reasons.

Perhaps the most flexible structures we have are various tree-based array implementations, similar to Clojure's arrays.
Well, the whole reason for asking in the first place is to find something I could relate to which could stand on its own, whether Trump said it or not. I think you are reading too much into it, I'm mostly an outside observer interested in the whole situation and curious why there's such a divisive and emotional component to it. From what I gathered, talking about him in any way is greatly unproductive, because you have people making assumptions about what you do or don't do immediately, instead of just trying to understand where the other person is coming from with their argument to begin with. The whole thing just seems like a toxic subject, and I'm curious how the American people get out of all this in a few years, or if it will tear your country apart even more. But it will affect us all globally.

By late 1944, U.S war production was so absurdly huge that Hitler (admittedly, hardly a man known by that point for a realistic worldview or an open mind) was flatly unable to believe it when told that the best estimates of U.S military aircraft production were somewhere in the neighborhood of 100,000 planes of all types for the year.

Also, I strongly recommend a couple books here: First: "The Wages of Destruction: The Making and Breaking of the Nazi Economy" by Adam Tooze

During last week's lunar eclipse I enjoyed viewing conditions perfect for spotting faint Uranus through my 70 mm refractor. I woke my wife and she and I checked out Jupiter, Saturn, and later on Mars, which she spotted by chance coming up over the horizon. Lunar eclipses are great opportunities for seeing some truly wondrous sights.
