> From talking to friends in generally high intelligence states, COVID basically _is_ the common cold.

The common cold doesn't infect organs through the ACE2 receptor, including: heart, pancreas, brain and so on.

Not sure what you mean with "generally high intelligence states", to me it's almost a meaningless statement. Whatever high intelligence you mean with that they're wrong, we know that COVID isn't the normal cold and that it can wreck your body much more than the common rhinovirus...

> Luckily, those free-thinkers saw the plan early and stressed to the community to not get the vaccine.

Why do you value contrarians in such higher regard than the medical and scientific community? Is it a search for a truth that only you know and to be special or are you just generally a contrarian, cynical person that loves to go against the grain?

I have many reservations about how governments tackled the pandemic, that doesn't mean that it's a hoax, that doesn't mean it isn't dangerous. I had it twice and didn't suffer much more than the brain fog for a couple of weeks and losing my taste and smell the first time for 5 days, at the same time I know people who died from this.

I seriously cannot comprehend how people after 3 years into this can still believe it's all a hoax, it's mind-boggling and I've tried hard to empathise and understand where it stems from but it seems so far away from actual reality that I simply cannot comprehend. The depths of human stupidity are probably too deep for my simpleton mind to understand...
Eating heated food is a staple of human diets for hundreds of thousands of years - ever since fire was invented. I wouldn't worry about that part so much.
There are multiple streets named after Werner von Braun and Werner von Siemens, so why not just take another well known German brand as your fake company’s fake address?
I'm sorry you've had to go through this. Good luck, man. I hope you get what you want.
Maybe they shouldn't just imitate meat. Go beyond or extend the traditional meat, meaning make it more tasteful with better texture. Create new flavors, play with chewiness etc.
From a French perspective, American cuisine is bland and unimpressive.

Clamping down on meat is not enough, you need to also get around cooking everything in oil, and added sugar (basically, everything about your cuisine).

To be fair, they predict that transistors will be everywhere including places where they (mostly) aren't found today such as in our bodies and close to our food.
We need new ways to connect the physical world with augmented and virtual reality experiences in order to fully realize the metaverse's potential as a 3D, global, interconnected, immersive, and real-time online space. To guide the design of new educational technology, I recommend a set of well-worn principles derived from the science of how and what children learn.
Yeah, even Iceland, a "developed" country, has almost three orders of magnitude lower GDP! But Iceland also has a tiny population, so maybe we should look at per-capita measures instead. After all, a country with 100 million subsistence farmers merging with another of the same size doesn't suddenly become twice as developed just because there are now 200 million subsistence farmers.
I have it setup to share the space; I have a TM dataset (generic not AFP, Time Machine, or whatever). Then I have a SAMBA per-user Time Machine share on top of that. The first time the user connects from the Mac it creates a child dataset for that user with the relevant ACLs to keep them isolated. A quote forces each client to prune its history.

The pool itself is 8x12TB Toshiba enterprise drives. I'll have to check what pool config I used but I did add multiple NVME SSDs for SLOG and ARC. Whichever one is the important one is actually mirrored across the NVME drives for redundancy while the other partition only exists on one NVME drive, which was mildly annoying to configure.

I'm still not sure I made the "best" choices for the ZFS config - there are many knobs to turn.
1) He was talking about beef not other products

2) What does it matter how they give it? $38B is still only $100 per person. Are you saying they give more than $38B?
Will they actually be smaller, though? AIUI, industry consensus is that future progress will come from 3D-stacking multiple layers of transistors on the same die, not from finer lithography.
IIRC, cooking vegetables is generally necessary to make many of the calories available to human digestion.

You waste much more by not cooking them.
Beware of struct padding.

sizeof(b.arr) != sizeof(b)

Consider:

#include <stddef.h>

typedef struct Array Array;

struct Array {

};

void foo(Array const* arr) {
size_t sz = sizeof(arr->data);
}

Correct, text-based 2FA is insecure. But coinbase allows it, and most banks offer it as the only option.

The link I posted basically describes exactly what happened to my buddy and how they pulled it off. T-Mobile + text-2FA + coinbase is a chain of weak links.

This.

As Signal is on a centralized Google Cloud instance, it can easily be shut down by the providers and that is that.

> nobody knows what they did during that year).

They (and Moxie) were too busy shoving their private cryptocurrency scam project in Signal to later get as many users using it as possible to then pump and dump the coins on exchanges.

Signal is a complete joke.

You still can do it, the main feature is: it just works. You don't have to follow the hype. One problem could be that new devs never experience the simplicity of such a setup, but that is not your problem.
a global, zero covid lockdown and this would've been all over in 4 weeks - the world absolutely would've been better off had we done this. Lack of coordination between countries means we all have to go the lowest common denominator, which is 'let it rip', which China is finally now having to do.
I’d like to remind you that western media were the first to fling blame on China during the beginning of Covid, for not restricting China nationals from traveling and spreading Covid.

Damned if they lockdown, damned if they don’t lockdown.

The fed was created to be an intermediary between banks so all banks form a network that in aggregate cannot be insolvent because if one bank is insolvent, another bank has plenty of money to lend to the insolvent bank. When you withdraw into cash, then you are basically banking with the Fed which means banks borrow from the Fed.

Most high level management is about meeting others and creating teams and motivating people to work together.

High level tech teams are about focusing on one thing and excluding the world around them. And in my experience, quite a lot of skilled programmers aren't comfortable being around too many strangers.

When programmers are concentrated on work, some people persons will misinterpret that as shunning them. Also, so many tech people treat management as a waste of money, that I'd say the disdain for each other is mutual.

Nice try, Susan.
I know it’s in vogue to blame capitalism, like our economic system is a faceless AI that decides things in a perfectly efficient market (It’s not).

Behind the curtain there are humans making decisions. They may be hedge funds, investors, board members, etc. There are humans that deliberately want to do business with China and know exactly what is happening with those workers. It wasn’t capitalism that outsourced iPhone production to a sweat shop, it was a group of real people who are morally bankrupt.
> you're equally likely to be investing at a local minimum.

If you invest at a few different times, whether fixed interval or random, is this not increasing the probability of approach an average value over the period you're investing?

I'm not asserting it's a good idea, I'm not using it as a strategy myself (or in fact making investment choices myself at all really), I'm just interested from the technical perspective.
Sometimes when trying to convince someone that they're wrong, you need to point out that there is a bias in their vision of reality. A bias is not a wrong logical step that can be fixed simply by pointing it out: it affects the ability itself to follow a different argument, and the entire view of reality.

Think for example of someone who is in a cult or deep into a religious belief; or think about those who believe in conspiracy theories of all kinds. They're basically called insane every day even in the media. Would you call that gaslighting?
If they're running anything tracking related then they need to gather consent. It's not complicated.

Not everyone agrees that property rights are absolute or supreme. Some of us think markets should be set up to help people, not the other way around, particularly where human needs like housing are involved.

It's not as impossible as you make it sound IMO, I would guess it's more a matter of pricing. If plantburgers and plantdogs where considerable cheaper than meatburgers and hotdogs I would guess people would follow the money and shift to consuming the plant based alternative if they were otherwise close enough.
All the plant based companies try to cater to the meat eating folk. I don’t know if it’s a winning strategy. There are tons of possibilities with vegetarian patties, they are super tasty and flavorful. I would eat them if catered as vegetarian but with the same protein content as meat.
Art exhibitions and gallery openings, the gym, a sports tournament, every kind of society, concerts, bands, club or voluntary activity, ...

If you don't put yourself into the places where you get to know new people and don't spend some fraction of your time there you might not find friends.

Getting to know people is not luck, it happens when you want to do it. Getting to know people is the first step of finding friends (or relationships for that matter).

There is enough places to go, just pick one you like and put yourself out there.
They could make that transition, of course. But look at all the countries that somehow got rid of dictators in this century. How many of those turned into stable, free, and democratic societies? Afghanistan? Iraq? Egypt? Lybia?

If you add ten more years, did it work out for Russia? Belarus? Ukraine? It did work out for Poland, Latvia and some others. But getting rid of an oppressive regime is the easy part of transforming an autocracy into democracy.
Yes, it's happening across the board. I shut down a lot of it with ad blocker rules, and in the last year I had to keep adding rules for new growth hacks.

Modern tech is a non-stop sales pitch, and it keeps getting worse.

I think that the modern business model is to grow at any cost, take over a market, and extract a toll. We're experiencing the toll being raised.
Not to say this is your moral prerogative but it's pretty simple: Eat only hand-picked fruit. It's by far the least death-causing food out there and it's offered to you by the tree to eat.

I'm not a vegetarian or fruitarian, I don't generally care about animal death or suffering. But if I did that would be my tactic to minimize pain in the system.
Interesting, did not know that, thanks.

It seems to me that a table of function pointers is all that's required. Highway is a little fancier in that the first entry is a trampoline that first detects CPU capabilities and then calls your pointer; subsequent calls go straight to the appropriate function.

Do the (experimental/non-portable) compiler versions contribute any additional value?
The people who promote fake meat are also often promoting banning real meat or making it more expensive by adding carbon credits. You can see some of them in this thread.
You can just use member function pointers without the wrapper. The syntax for calling them is a bit uglier though.
There is more than that. Local sport clubs. Gardening societies etc. etc.
Clickbaity, explain what it is and what it does briefly
I like them for how easy they are to cook. I tend to eat them once a week. I alternate my protein sources: fish, seafood, chicken, beyond/impossible, egg/dairy, turkey.

I avoid pork and beef most of the time, except on occasions.

In that sense they're a nice addition to my selection, I find they have a unique flavor to them, but most often they're the protein that I cook when I'm lazy, because of how they don't need any prep.
So you will grow on string and do lean and lower? Or use the high lift vehicle to prune and harvest?

For vine crops (tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, eggplants), we use a high wire system. The stems are clipped to the wire as the crop grows upwards. The entire wire (and crop) is then lowered as fruits are harvested to make room for more growth. We keep the same crop for an entire year.

I've been in some of the greenhouses in Mexico, (Sinaloa to be exact) growing peppers and Asian eggplants. They were fairly simple plastic houses but had strict entry protocols including booties and yellow sticky trap mazes to enter.

Pest and disease management is a big deal in greenhouses as they spread quickly given that it is an indoor environment. In Mexico, more high-tech plastic greenhouses are being built. They are cheaper than the Dutch glass equivalent but still have a high degree of actuation. In Mexico, there is so much light, that you don’t need the high light transmissivity of glass.

There is a more complex industrial greenhouse I saw in Utah growing tomatoes on string. Very tall, unfortunately I didn't get to go in. It's next to a power plant and they pipe the expelled CO2 into the greenhouse for increased crop production. I believe it was started by Dutch growers.

I’ve been to this facility. It was built by a company called Houwelings which are a Canadian company with Dutch heritage. Unfortunately it was not operated well and it has recently gone through a restructuring [1].

I agree on greenhouse quality 100% but but am personally a big fan of soil and compost and dislike hydroponics. Nearly religiously so haha.

There’s a case for soil vs hydroponics but the reality is that you can’t supply year-round at the quality and price that consumers expect without hydroponics.

Also I didn't realize you were founder of this company. I thought you were just a guy on the internet.

I am both :)

People think because something looks like a tomato it is all the same. But there is a huge difference in flavor and nutrition as you correctly point out and the idea of optimizing for nutritional quality is so overlooked.

You can grow high taste varieties and low taste varieties in greenhouses. Which variety you choose is a simple ROI calculation like in any business. A big problem in the US today is that greenhouses have been built in Canada and Mexico and the produce is trucked a long distance. This results in significant quality degradation vs growing locally. We aim to fix this in the US and in other countries.

"the extension apparently can be configured to use a locally running instance of the server" - well that sounds needlessly complicated, I mean, the code could be implemented directly in the extension (I know, that's probably easier than it sounds if you are trying to maintain both the extension and the online version with the same code base).

"you post publicly the json, which may or may not be ideal depending on what you're doing" - that's never ideal, it's just a smaller problem (if the JSON is publicly available anyway) or a much bigger problem (if it's sensitive personal data).

YAML is much too complex. I am never able to remember all the different ways of formatting text, for instance, and have to resort to cheat-sheet guides such as this all the time.

https://yaml-multiline.info/

The YAML spec is thousands of lines long (23k words, to be more exact). This is even longer than XML (20k words). JSON's spec is less than two thousand words. For a language that's supposed to be human-readable, YAML is maddeningly complex.

https://yaml.org/spec/1.2.2/

Plus, of course, you can execute arbitrary code with it. By design. AND it contains semantic whitespace, which is personally my least favourite innovation ever.
Well said.

Pondering why your refactoring of "Network Effects" has a lot of truth;

The supposed property that the attractive influence of a network is
proportional to its size, rather like gravitational agglomeration,
turns out to be largely false in practice.

My observation is that people don't join a network because "all their
friends" are on it. That's a myth. But they do find it hard to leave
because one or two highly weighted friends (family, parents living
abroad etc) are on it.

You could probably say "network effects is just marketing" too. I
think the idea of "organic growth" is also largely a myth. Massive
amounts of marketing hype and billion dollar influence operations herd
the masses, and also default settings and bundling. It's hard to avoid
Google, Facebook or Twitter when your phone and browser come
pre-configured with them.

You should add a qualifier that you are from the USA. Where I live it's completely frowned upon to go to work sick, to the point where you will be told off by your manager, your colleagues will think it's rude and disrespectful, etc.

I simply do not understand how the USA doesn't provide sick leave for workers, does that stem from a lack of trust between employers and employees? It seems to me that the only reason to make it difficult for people to get paid leave when they're sick is that employers feel it'd be abused and hence treat their employees as children, perpetuating the cycle of mistrust. I cannot see another reason for such a basic need for the general health of society to be missing...
