Do you have a source for statements about getting parasites from eating cooked insects?

Cows and pigs are more closely related to humans than insects are and their parasites are more likely to be able to cross the species barrier than an insect parasite. That is why we generally cook meat to kill parasites.
> technique called bloodletting

The technique is called a "biopsy" and while it does hurt, the animals recover pretty quickly from it. Branding is far more painful.
Games, music, art, and tools to make those things (all in Haskell).

Also just random Haskell with no care about Professional Software Engineering idiocy.

Although I do the latter already when I do have free time. My personal projects have 0 code standards or style consistency. I write whatever forms are the most fun to the touch at the moment. For instance, why pass a parameter around when you can use Kleisli arrows? It's like playing games while coding, but when you're done you have a working thing that people can use.
Cultured meats would not change the amount of deforestation. Deforestation happens when a landowner owns a forest, and wants to put it to productive use, and they find from available crops that perhaps the meat industry is the most profitable for them. Absent a meat industry, these landowners aren't just going to give up and pay taxes on useless land, they will find some other industry that will make use of the land they purchased for the sole purpose of exploitation, not conservation.

The issue with deforestation is in a lack of protections for forests, not because of any one industry.
I was deeply involved in hospice software, and specifically developing hospice revenue cycle solutions, about 15 years ago, and I can certainly confirm that the Medicare/Medicaid reimbursement formulas -- while in most areas arguably about as well-designed as you're going to get with such a program -- incentivize fraud because of the odd combination of up-front incentives and retrospective clawbacks. For well-run hospices, these aren't major issues (clawbacks aren't uncommon, but aren't financially controlling), but for hospice systems built to drain public cash out of dying patients, it's every bit as bad as the article says. (I did find that, using public Medicare hospice data, it was very easy to find providers that -- comparing my model to DOJ prosecutions -- were engaged in patient-stuffing and fraud by looking at their patient population data. Unsurprisingly, there was a significant correlation between questionable patient censuses and financial performance.)

Generally, hospice is a hard case -- I'd never put a loved one (and I didn't) through one of the major providers, while smaller hospices have their own issues even if they're well-run, because Medicare/Medicaid reimbursement isn't really sufficient at the small scale (many are non-profit for this reason). I'd like to see more money directed towards hospice while restricting hospice size (such as putting caps on total patient census) to try and reduce the incentives for fraud and gaming the system, but to be honest I don't think there's a good way to fix the problems inherent in the model.

(Also, the government should be a lot more aggressive, and licensing bodies more strict, on penalties against these companies. Yank the medical licenses from medical directors, slam some FTC decrees on named individuals, and put some execs in prison -- rather than, say, letting them go on to get elected to the Senate -- and the risks to medical fraud will start to outweigh the value for a lot of people.)
You're describing a way to make colleagues and acquaintances, not friends.

The more active social life you lead - the less time you have to spend on every individual you meet, hence, it is not enough to become close friends.
Sure, but this is chicken, which is already notably porous, which is why it’s generally considered unsafe to eat rare chicken, even if it’s been well cooked on the outside.

At least for that aspect, I’d think the protection is less relevant. I would be very curious how that’s handled with other meats, like lab grown beef. I’d be more hesitant about lab grown beef, if the cooking instructions prevented cooking it rare.
At lot of that is dealing with large customers(advertisers etc.) who need to be able to talk to someone at those companies to make sure they get their money's worth of services, and isn't left alone to sort out their issues based on bad documentation and internet hearsay.

Another big part of it is simply admin, for twitter a lot of that is babysitting the moderation algorithms as their customers(who is not the people tweeting) can be pretty sensitive about what kind of content they are associated with.

Then there is defensive research i.e. any big company in a particular space wants to have prototypes and technology ready to compete with anything their competitors might come out with especially if they expect a growth in overall sector revenue.

For uber they are also a de-facto employer for a lot of drivers and a provider of real world services so they need the full range of hr and customer support services that those kind of services and driver numbers would require had it not been a tech company.

Ask HN: Why aren&#x27;t tweets picked up by the duplicate filter?
I'm not sure Elon Musk shitposts constitute news at any time, but why are people able to post the same tweet over and over without being flagged by HN's otherwise-efficient duplicate filter? HN strips query data from URLs before they are posted, maybe it should do so prior to the duplicate check too since most Twitter URLs come with a large helping of cruft.

And please, check the New page before submitting. There are 4 links to the same evidence-free tweet in the last 10 minutes.
There are certainly millions of people who wear Submariners without any desire to go underwater.

JSON acceleration and handful of other peripheral spot improvements aren't going to yield big whole application speedups in most apps.

Using hand coded accelerated SIMD kernels in specific places like JSON codec hits Amdahls' law[1]. The archievable whole app speedup is going to be low in most cases unless you get pervasive performant compiler generated SIMD code throughout your code, done by JITs of managed languages etc.

The alternative, for the purposes of a farmed animal, is an animal that never lived. If the entirety of the life of an animal is suffering, as is the case in many factory farms, it's fair to suggest that not having that animal ever live reduces the total amount of suffering in the world.
Given we seem to be all-in on "our economic system rewards you greatly for being highly mobile, and punishes you—potentially greatly—for sticking around somewhere with family roots" I'm inclined to agree. We should either modify our economy so that's not (at least, to such a high degree) the case, or treat elder care and child care as the costs—to society, not individuals—of doing business that way.
I have no qualms eating meat (I eat more than my doctor says I should).

Your comment seems pretty disingenuous though. You're comparing life in the wild to that on a small family farm. Factory farms, especially those that produce poultry, are far more horrifying. There is also a growing body of evidence suggesting that many of the drugs (antibiotics and hormones in particular) that we pump our farm animals full of are actively detrimental to their daily comfort.

It sounds to me like your statement was crafted as a defense of your dietary choices rather than an objective assessment of animal wellbeing.

Of course none of this arguing really means anything without some scientific data to back this up. I'd like to see a comparison of cortisol levels and other stress indicators in wild vs factory chickens.
People differ, but I would (occasionally). I'm mostly vegan for about 10 years now. I've been looking forward to this technology because it will result in many meat eaters changing their eating habits - reducing the number of animals suffering.

Definitely. Tabletop Simulator is (or at least, was about a year ago) so bad at this it was deemed unusable for my gaming group. Everyone kept knocking things over, which hilariously happened way more often than with an actual boardgame with physical pieces! It felt like playing drunk, but without the alcoholic fun.

memcpy() and memmove() are language-level functions. They are allowed to do things that cannot be implemented in user code. The C standard library's implementation of these functions have tight integration with the compiler to ensure that it can implement all the required semantics without triggering undefined behavior.

Basically, as I understand it, capsaicin can be psychoactive in the same sense that, for example, running or BDSM can be psychoactive: an endorphin rush which can cause a feeling of euphoria.
Bingo.

I'm an agricultural researcher with a background that includes in vitro biology, now getting another degree focused on entire food systems. I have spent a lot of time looking into the economic realities of food innovation, land-use, energy, water, price-sensitivity, and consumer preferences.

There's nothing wrong with getting excited about lab-grown meat, but we have a loooong way to go before considering it as a realistic food source in the future.

One must consider the current price of food is grounded in the use of fossil fuels, ignoring negative externalities, and millennia of optimization.

To consider lab-grown meat as a future replacement of conventional animal production, you have to go way back to primary energy sources and work your way back from there. Chances are, you'll find that a hypothetical future of lab-grown meat is cost-prohibitive for basically the entire world.

I'm not here to argue the ethics, environmental damage, etc. Just pointing out the COST, and why consumer adoption should not be viewed through the lens of a six-figure salary programmer.

That's simply not true. I have personally and remotely set up a professed tech-phobe with a hardware wallet. If I were to die they could recover it on their own.

But, taking your point and rolling with it, there is nothing necessarily wrong or futile about using a properly set up and insured bank with crypto if the hardware wallet is still too intimidating. It could even be set up with certain multi-sig schemes such that a fourth party + the client could withdraw without the bank's permission.

The point is that even when custodied, Bitcoin has arguable benefits over normal currency. I'm sure you will disagree with those benefits, but at this point that would be a Red Herring.

Probably not. I'm not the strictest vegetarian (I'll sometimes treat myself to oysters, and will eat meat if it's the only reasonable thing available at a restaurant or dinner party), and at this point in my life, I just plain prefer foods based around vegetables, beans, and grains: I find it's easier, safer, and cheaper to prepare at home, and generally tastes better (to my palate, at least).
Fun fact! They still sell new FJ cruisers in Dubai. Same look as the discontinued model. The locals love them. Probably the greatest testament to how good these things are if people want to keep buying the slightly older design over a Land Rover https://www.toyota.ae/en/new-cars/fj-cruiser/
It's because they're not cost competitive. For the same amount of money you can get a whole heck of a lot more servers (CPU and memory!) running Intel, AMD, or more specialized hardware. Even if we're only talking about their (IBM's) cost!

If mainframes were actually competitive with modern server hardware everyone would be using them. Even IBM uses regular Intel hardware in their cloud stuff!

Mainframes aren't even fast... IBM will make all sorts of BS claims about memory speed and the bandwidth of their interconnects and whatnot but all of it is 100% artificial benchmark nonsense that doesn't translate into real-world usefulness because nobody is rewriting their mainframe shit to take advantage of it.

I don't know about you but in the time I've been in IT "hardware failures" that actually had any sort of serious impact on operations were few and far between. The whole point of modern solutions (everything from N-tier architecture to containers and on-demand compute/function stuff) is to make the hardware irrelevant. At my work we had a whole data center taken down as part of a planned test and I doubt that any end users even noticed (and it was down for hours because they screwed something up when bringing things back online hehe). I think something like 6,000 servers and some large amount of networking equipment were complete powered down? I don't know the specifics (and probably shouldn't give them out anyway).

The whole point of mainframes is to serve a function: All the hardware is redundant/super robust (within itself). That function is mostly meaningless in today's IT infrastructure world.
I'm not sure that's how I perceive capsaicin myself; but the guy who bred the Carolina Reaper is a recovering addict (in the usual sense, street drugs and alcohol), and he certainly describes his creations in similar terms:

I think you'll see the ZK stuff used increasingly for non-financial applications, it's a legitimately novel and powerful area of mathematical primitives for verifiable computation. FHE is also very cool and just starting to be usable for privacy preserving ML.
I'm mostly vegetarian; I'll eat meat once or twice a week. If the price, taste, texture and nutritional convenience are similar, and it's safe to eat, I'd be very happy to replace "natural" meat with this. Don't see why not!
ISO 6425 is generally used for dive watch, eg a Rolex Submariner, not dive computer. I don't know any dive masters who wear a dive watch while diving; they seem like mostly a fashion / status symbol kind of thing? I have no interest in them anyways.

I looked at the Garmin spec sheets before buying my Apple Watch and didn't find any of their computer/watch combos listing ISO 6425. Instead they list a depth (usually 100M) and attest "Tested to engineering standard EN13319 for dive compliance", see https://www.garmin.com/en-US/legal/waterrating-definitions/
Sorry if my message has the wrong tone, it was not meant to. I am not a native speaker and rewrote it two times because I thought it sounded too agressive, apparently I still didn't fix that entirely.
This is a misleading statement. We don’t even try to keep slaughtered meat sterile during production; the animal’s immune system makes that unnecessary.
According to Our world in data wild terrestrial mammals make up 2% of the total number of mammals (in biomass so it is not exactly headcount, but also includes predators and rodents not strictly herbivores), while cattle, pigs, goats and sheep are >50%. So when looking at suffering you may want to take scale into account.

Only non-zero integer division is specified as having no side effects.

Division by zero is in the C standard as "undefined behavior" meaning the compiler can decide what to do with it, crashing would be nice but it doesn't have to. It could also give you a wrong answer if it wanted to.

Edit: And just to illustrate, I tried in clang++ and it gave me "5 / 0 = 0" so some compilers in some cases indeed make use of their freedom to give you a wrong answer.
That's actually a reasonable amount, comparable to what your body normally produces.

I'm not sure where I read it, but Toyota apparently saves money in the USA by making optional features included in the base model. In the 90's and early 00's, US companies would churn out base models with crank windows, manual transmissions, etc. Toyota found it was cheaper to engineer/build cars with fewer options, especially one's that everyone chose anyway. And customers didn't feel nickle and dimed.

That makes sense to me. That's part of why the Model T was so cheap.

I agree, I don't know anyone offhand who uses two computers for recreational diving, and I would absolutely use an Apple watch as my sole dive computer. If you have a computer malfunction you can still safely return to the surface. The only reason to perhaps carry a backup is if you've traveled a long way or otherwise invested a lot of money in the trip.

I've seen articles about it; my understanding it that at minimum, it only involves a small amount of simple soldering to connect an ESP8266 (or ESP32)-equipped board to the IKEA PCB, which is about the limit of what I can do in my current conditions. It also fits into the original enclosure without damaging it, which is a nice bonus.

I keep it on my list as a last-resort option, because of two factors:

1. That's only a particulate sensor, and I'm hoping I can find something more comprehensive - at least with TVOC, but a legitimate CO₂ would be nice too.

2. Unless immediately hacked, it's just a paperweight - I'm not going to bother manually recording the two-bit measurement it displays, and my wife isn't fond of colorful indicator lights illuminating the apartment at night.
I'll add another I heard today, "it's a natural experiment that is being conducted and if there is no outbreak it means CoviD is over"

In the US, if you accept Medicare patients, by law you must not charge anyone less than you charge Medicare. Private entities typically see Medicare patients as marginal demand: The bed/room is there, the nurses are already staffed, so might as well take Medicare dollars than nothing. So it’s not really much of a dunk to point out Medicare vs. private reimbursement rates.
I think the engine offered in new 4Runners and tacomas is a 10 year old model. I like the “if it isn’t broke don’t fix it” mentality Toyota has managed to keep over the years.

Well, don't start your comment by nitpicking terminology if you don't want to debate terminology. You can't just drop an argument and then evade contradiction like that.
It sounds like you are looking for something like the air monitor I have been developing over the last two years. It is about the size of a deck of cards and fits in a shirt pocket. The Lithium Polymer battery powers it for 12-16 hours and is recharged with USB-C.

It uses a high-accuracy CO2 sensor (±(40 ppm + 5 %) and you can manually calibrate it to 420 PPM outdoor air. A key innovation is reporting via a dynanmic QR code on its 128x64 OLED display. Just point your phone camera at the QR code and it takes you to a site showing a report with graphs and data tables of recent measurements. There is no app to install or web site to log into. The web page is context-free and all of the measurement data is in the query string. It is nearly ready for production and likely to sell in the $150 price range.
Isn't that a point against the whole concept, and not in particular against specific options like mammoth or giant sloth, which you replied to?
