The problem here is specific to LaTeX. I wrote my PhD dissertation using OpenOffice.org (now use LibreOffice), and generating HTML was easy (I posted the HTML).

But the author is right, LaTeX is widely used, translating it to HTML is hard, and there are no incentives to make or improve tools. Even if you don't want HTML, it'd be good for the LaTeX tools to automaticalky generate reflowable PDF for accessibility. There should be a process for funding infrastructure to accelerate science, and this would be a good example.

There's an interesting trick you could try. PDF supports embedding other contents. LibreOffice, for example, can slip its original edited file into a generated PDF, producing perfectly editable PDF. Maybe a variant of this idea could be used, e.g., store the LaTeX source of HTML in the PDF, so people can "get the PDF" yet still have options. But that's just a side idea, the real issue is funding infrastructure for science.
If you are really worried about security like you have a private key protecting millions of dollars of bitcoin say, you are better really putting that on a separate 'computer' called a hardware wallet that isolates it from the general mess.

Are we supposed to believe your word for it? A picture of the two together is proof that a film maker is running the country?

I'm not sure what agenda you're trying to push here, and I do not see anything wrong per se in stricter media controls in time of war. Propaganda is not always negative in wartime, because counter propaganda will make sure you lose the war.

What do you think intelligence services are for if not making sure everyone is playing for the same team, when the freedom of your country is at play? It is not a coincidence high treason is the most serious offence even in times of peace.

Shall we blame the Ukrainian government because they're not really in the mood of letting pro-Russian sympathisers run amok?

Again, I do not understand what you're trying to demonstrate.
If you think this will force politicians to keep their promises, as opposed to breaking them in broad daylight, you need to pay more attention to politics.

UBI making shell games like that harder is a good thing if you ask me.
Is there a way to train it on your own voice to isolate your own voice but not distort it too much?
This is entirely personal taste and ephemeral. Flour tortillas stay together a bit better if you’re not eating them immediately. But from a taste perspective, after you’ve had both a few times, it’s easy to appreciate why they complement different types of tacos.
Fusion announcement was about weapons, not energy generation
TL;DR:
The December 5th experiment was about proving to ourselves and our adversaries that we still understand how to build and validate nuclear weapons, despite the ban on testing.
> That 2k cost for electricity you mentioned is for people charging at home

This is very true. Although I would point out in the older EVs, they charge just fine from a straight 120V socket, since they don’t have enough range to warrant a fancy fast charger.

My analysis also fails to take into account the cost of financing. I’m not sure how much of an impact that would have without doing the math, but it would definitely skew things towards the gas car or hybrid.
Looking at it from a different angle, I don’t like the more wordy suggestions.

> convict…person who is/was incarcerated

> senile…person suffering from senility

Before I hit send I try to make my writing clear, concise, and full of meaning. I do it in the hope that the folks on the other end read and understand me.

Swapping one term for a slightly longer one won’t be a breaking point, but sentences like:

> I went to visit the incarcerated person suffering from senility

build up cruft that you don’t get with something shorter.

> I went to visit the senile convict.

Maybe they should punctuate the article as Orwell did in his rules for writing:

> Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous
I've been feeling burned out on social media for a while even before Elon hit Twitter. I have very few real connections on Twitter so it's just been a consumption platform for me. Considering to let it die and take a break from things. I'm not eager to go chasing content creators to various different platforms. I need more platforms to watch as much as I need a swift kick to the head.

Drop-ins are really valuable. I find that having some 15 minute medical thing scheduled in at 2pm on a Tuesday means I end up losing much of a days productivity, after taking into account driving time, waiting time, driving back, catching up things I missed at work, wasting other peoples time because I wasn't around when they would have benefited from my input and now have to redo work differently, etc. And don't forget the big task you didn't start Tuesday morning because you knew you wouldn't get it finished before having to leave for the medical appointment.

If the Law of Attraction were a concrete scientific fact, men wouldn't have to worry about attracting women. But science can help us understand the age-old question of how attractive men are to women.

How to Attract a Woman (6 Things That Get Her Fascinated)

Men don't have to worry about how to attract women. But science can help us understand the age-old question of how attractive men are to women. Since the Law of Attraction is complex, we don’t fully understand it.

Since the Law of Attraction is complex and we don't fully understand how and why it all works, we know there is a lot men can do to improve their chances of bonding with the opposite sex.

So, let's look at how to attract women so that you can build that elusive romantic relationship faster.

Can't I just use the magic love potion?

In a world where instant answers, health-altering pills, and groundbreaking scientific discoveries appear every year, there's reason to believe someone will invent a magical panacea that can solve all of humanity's romantic challenges. But learning how to make women irresistible is more complicated than that because love, attraction, and romance are not one-size-fits-all situations.

Instead, we've collected 30 personality traits and masculinity qualities that you can highlight in yourself to help you attract women and find the relationship you're looking for. But don't worry—none of these tips require a trip to a plastic surgeon or a job change. Instead, we recommend you do some fine-tuning of your identity to influence your ability to get the girl you want.

Not necessarily a single big instance. Just one big implementation; that may use multiple instances under the hood. The centralization of Amazon allows it to polish up some kind of "portal" without worrying about the traffic concerns, and then use that to let users connect to internal instances, seamlessly, and external instances in common federated ways.

I know it seems like a long way around for not really providing any "value", but the idea is that most people just want "next twitter". They simply aren't going to deal with server instances in the way that, say, the gaming public does. People running businesses, being "influencers", or developing journalistic followings do not get any value from caring about technical implementation. So Amazon's strength, here, is that they could pick up a ton of influential people just by being "easy" and then the followers come for their interests.
Fully disagree
The thing is though, in Spanish, the masculine form of a noun already also takes the duty of neuter form. E.g. “Latinos” already refers to a general group of people, regardless of gender. It doesn’t mean a group of only men.
Butchering an animal that has been led to slaughter is distinct from driving a herd. In the former, an animal is led by rope/nose ring/etc. fairly directly. In the latter, the drover uses action from a distance[0] to indirectly control the direction and speed of a group[1] of animals.

I contend that the skills practised[2] doing the latter are, far more than those practised doing the former, conducive to violently routing[3] a group of humans.

I can vouch for the importance of getting your eyes checked regularly. I missed a yearly check up due to COVID restrictions and over the year after that I noticed some real eye strain issues cropping up - a week or two after I got my new prescription the eye strain had cleared up.
Not entirely true anymore.
In my understanding Twitter is in the process for going private company, and by not being a public company reduces the pressure for profits.

For example Valve is a great example, how a private company can be successful and respect it's customers.

But the problem is, that the price is still going to be high for Twitter when it will sold again, even if the price is just a fraction. Not many are willing to buy it and then reduce profits by thinking the best of its users.

Is there any processing that can reduce mycotoxins in wheat? For corn/maize, which also faces lots of fungus issues, nixtamalization removes the mycotoxins almost entirely.
The title of his article includes "You can’t take it with you". That is not anything close to implying "we can’t rule it out".

I know the evidence does not totally support epigenetic transmission, but it is pointing towards that conclusion. What we need is more evidence, not dismissing it on the basis of not knowing.

Besides, it just makes sense biologically. Why would we not have a biological system that prepared offspring for

If we could afford doing the sustainable thing, but are doing the unsustainable thing anyway... that usually means we actually can't afford the right thing, or just can't do it.

Note: you have to account for costs of coordination and taking on risk - then you realize a lot of the "if only everyone would ${trivial thing}..." aren't done because they actually are prohibitively expensive or downright impossible.

> Yeah I can't really get beyond this thing about how powerful our machines on our desk are compared to what hosting providers charge if you have 12 months utilization

I'm not so sure. Here's a quick comparison:

Desktop:

Dell XPS
12ᵗʰ Gen Intel® Core™ i5-12400
Windows 11 Home
Intel® UHD Graphics 730
8 GB, DDR5
256 GB SSD

$669.99

https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/desktop-computers/xps-deskto...

Cloud:

Linode 8 GB
8 GB
4 CPUs
160 GB

$0.06 / Hr

Suppose I work every working day of the year for 10 hours (an overestimate). I would pay 250 * 10 * $0.06 = $150 for the Linode. So the Dell desktop takes 4.5 years to pay for itself.

Granted this is a fairly rough comparison but I don't think it's obvious that physical machines are more cost efficient that cloud machines.

That depends on launch costs and satellite design.

The old designs from the 1970s would have been absurdly expensive. Modern designs like NASA's SPS-ALPHA are cheap to manufacture at scale. The book The Case for Space Solar Power has a detailed cost breakdown and puts a 2GW geostationary plant at 15 cents/kWh, but was published before SpaceX did much. I plugged in Starship launch costs and it came to 4 cents/kWh, which is pretty great for 24/7 clean power without storage.

Great idea! Also, restore from backup on every boot. The trouble is, I never reboot.
This appears to be an example of a failed margin call. The broker should have closed out the customer's position sooner, to maintain margin requirements. It's interesting to think about the reasons that didn't happen in this case.

But to be clear, the broker is very exposed in this situation. It reads like the customer is planning to cover the loss, but if a loss is big enough there's a strong incentive to declare bankruptcy and leave the broker with bad debt. Needless to say the broker doesn't want to be in the position of worrying about whether they will be on the hook for customers' losses. Which is why margin requirements exist.

True - I should probably have said 99% of their customers. I never seemed to have a difficulty finding a movie when I wanted but then again I didn’t often want to.
This is true, but is a separate situation. Aging men going on TRT to improve quality of life is very different than going on gear to get shredded. Worse is the prevalence of shredded men on gear in all media (mainstream and social) changes perceptions so that even having an 'average' good physique requires PED for most men. I have no idea what solution exists to reverse this.
Multiples of a very low number is still a pretty low number. That said, having returned fairly recently from an event in an unfamiliar US city with a reputation for being relatively dangerous (Detroit), I'll say that I didn't feel very comfortable in spite of it probably being mostly safe enough objectively. So it's understandable that an obvious tourist who doesn't speak the language at all in a US or European city might feel at risk.
But why is this at input selection? Have manufacturers cheapened out and only 1 port (with DP-AUX, HDMI-I2C ...) is active at the CPU?

Every word can be pejorative in the right context. Especially if it is a characteristic that one does not identify with. Like calling a box champion a "delicate flower", other people would consider it a compliment

As soon as you ban any word, both pejorative and intended use, the similar next one will be used in a pejorative way, which will give you the same problem later on

Seems unnecessary effort to ban most of the language because some people don't use it correctly. Especially because people are not born knowing those stigmas. So they naturally disappear
Roadmap leads to a 404 and I can't find any information on what kind of cloud support I could expect from this. I don't really see a reason to care about this over something mature like Serverless or CloudFormation templates if it only supports AWS. I also don't necessarily see how well Cloudflare Workers / KV / D1 translates to AWS Lambda / DynamoDB / RDS so that I can write stuff once and get it working on both backends.
Yes, it was one of the things I've tried. It didn't really help much, maybe except for sleep, but it wasn't a noticeable enough change that I can't rule out placebo. The spasming was extremely sudden to come on, and the weirdest thing was that 90% of it also resolved very suddenly when I passed gas. It felt like some sort of nerve crosstalk or something.

I've continued taking magnesium (a little bit) as it seems recommended when taking a lot of D3 as well to avoid issues, though I haven't researched it well enough to tell if that's actually really backed up by strong evidence. I'm staying well under the recommended daily maximum intake for supplements so I think I'm ok. I'll probably keep taking it for a month or two, then stop and see if anything seems to go wrong.

Also, magnesium deficiency can explain twitching, but a large part of my symptoms have been numbness and weird sensations, which I don't believe is something that magnesium deficiency would explain.

Yes, and Einstein was thinking along these lines.

However, he (and his successors) have had a great deal of trouble reconciling a static universe with quantum mechanics.

(b) luckily there are very few physical problems involving scales that would invoke both GR and QM.

Or tie it to copyright law. Products that aren't readily available lose their copyright protections so others can make that content available to the people. Actually writing the law in such a way that doesn't enable the media companies to come up with some sort of malicious compliance, like requiring a VPN to Nepal and a payment of $10,000 for each episode of an show, would be challenging but since many of these tricks are already known from the music industry, the most common ones could be addressed. Problem is that the media companies have multiple branches of government in their pocket so such a solution will always be theoretical.
I noticed some brands of flour fail to rise in my bread-making machine. I suppose this could be because of fungicides sprayed to avoid the fungus and toxins mentioned in the article.

Whatever service has the least commercials and little time commitment is basically what I watch.

Right now I like YouTube premium. Although YouTube is making big mistakes like removing the downvote count. Gaslighting your users to appease creators and control narrative is not good.

I'm about to cut YouTube TV though. Its all commercials and bad content. Even CNBC is unwatchable to me.

Bloomberg as well. I have a $400 subscription to Bloomberg and they're still showing me commercials its absurd. How greedy can you be. I cant take that repeating chime and same 3 commercials hitting me in the head in the morning. Going to have a seizure.

You can read the Wikipedia article "Republic of Crimea (1992–1995)" which is extremely well sourced with link to NYT articles of the period and some good academic papers from before the 2014 invasion. That's if it hasn't been defaced of course. Crimea is a contentious point of the current conflict.

I don't really understand your point about real "owners". Crimea today is de facto Russia and de jure Ukraine on the basis of the 1994 agreement (I think we can safely ignore the 9 countries which accepted the results of the 2014 referendum). Their unique situation regarding the rest of Ukraine is that they have been at odd with the federation more often than not and have consistently voted for pro-Russian politicians to the point that Ukraine had to military removes their government once. It is very different from what's happening in the other invaded provinces.

I received the same diagnostic in 2017, which coincided with the year I got my first external monitor for my MacBook. Headaches and eye pain became a more common occurence in the first weeks, until I stumbled upon ddcctl [0] and the fact that monitor brightness can be changed from the OS.

That's when I developed the first version of Lunar (https://lunar.fyi) to adapt brightness automatically throughout the day based on the sun position in the sky. (reading the light sensor was not possible at the time)

That combined with Night Shift (macOS native version of f.lux) fixed most of my problems.

I also tried blue light filter glasses but the only effect they had was removing more money from my savings. I feel like this is just modern day snake oil for computer workers.

In the end, what fixed all of my problems was a LASIK [1] operation (well actually PRK because I had only a small abberation). I still recommend this to all my friends and relatives who are always complaining about their vision. It did change my life.

I still cringe when someone turns on an overhead lightbulb though, I never use those in my home. Turns out this wasn't my astigmatism, it's just that most LED bulbs are simply too bright single point lights.

I fit my home with TRADfri warm light lamps hidden behind sofa/door/desk [2], WLED-powered [3] LED strips and simple string lights (like you can see in the front page video on https://lowtechguys.com/volum/)
