The main concern here (and most observational studies) is confounding by indication. Specifically, the same reason some people got hydroxychloroquine as opposed methotrexate is the same reason you see differences in the outcome. In this case there’s plausible confounding that needs to be addressed before any conclusion like the title could be drawn.

Generally hydroxychloroquine is used in mild rheumatoid, whereas methotrexate is used in moderate-severe disease.

Inflammation in rheumatoid (and other inflammatory diseases) contribute to atherosclerosis and plaque buildup. Rheumatoid increases the risk of coronary disease by 1.5-2x.

That difference alone could account for the difference in dementia, particularly vascular dementia.
I don't know if there a better argument in the book for why you shouldn't lie but the one mentioned in the article in kinda weak.

> against lying? The answer: a simple egalitarianism. You can’t see any reason why you are special, why you are different from all the rest of mankind.

This wouldn't convince people not to lie. In fact I'd say most people find themselves special in some matter if only for the fact that they get to experience their own life constantly while merely knowing about other people's life even when interacting with them.
Danger, Will Robbins. I have zero expertise; I'm an annoying nerd like most of the rest of us. I just read lots of law blogs. :)

The post touches on this:

In determining whether the audience is likely to interpret a statement as one of fact or one of opinion or hyperbole, courts consider a viewpoint of an audience familiar with the speaker, the forum, and the circumstances.

The interesting thing here --- and this is useful for HN, which sometimes has very weird ideas of what constitutes defamation --- is that opinions can't be defamatory. You need to be able to trace a defamation claim back to a damaging revelation of a false fact. Here, the root of the damaging claim is a Tarot reading, which is what makes this case spicy.
I don't have any hard data at hand, but I can say that running my AC (which is just a one-way heat pump) for a few days out of the month in the summer makes my combined gas+electric bill about the same as in the middle of winter when my gas furnace is running all the time.

This is how the self claimed god-king of the old namely Namrod and Pharaoh misled their subjects and claimed false deity. In the Bible (Old Testament) and Quran there are stories of Pharaoh during Moses time cruelly and pre-emptively killed all the Jewish new born sons based under the heavenly knowledge that he will be eventually overthrown by a Jewish prophet. According to legends and history, he gathered this prediction information from his sorcerers with their Genie partners eavesdropping the angels conversation because in the old days these eavesdropping activities was feasible and now abruptly stopped after the Quran revelation.

Because we don't really have a good answer yet for doing this. Even if we waved our magic wand and had everyone using solar wind and batteries, where are you getting the batteries? Out of the ground, mined nickel and cobalt and lithium, all from poor countries with poor safety standards, all non-renewable resources. At least we can plant more trees.

How are you going to build all those transmission lines? Probably through your backyard? Certainly not mine, and my neighbors likely agree. They're ugly, loud, and potentially dangerous. But the whole point of them is to bring power from where it's being generated to where it's needed, and where it's needed is where tons of people live and don't want to see them.

There is no answer. Anyone who says there is is lying or really really doesn't want to face the truth. We can try to have our cake and eat it too. We can try to have a modern society and also have it come "for free", without consequences. But it's a lie we tell ourselves.

You really want bang for your buck to save the planet? Take public transport. Stop eating meat. Stop getting on airline flights. Oh and stop listening to the radio too because you're supporting people who are spending a bunch of coal fired energy just pumping radio waves into the air. Don't get on your phone anymore because charging your phone costs energy. Stop posting to Twitter or Mastodon, because doing so requires both the sender and the receiver to burn coal in order to talk to each other. (Looking at you, Greta Thunberg.) Nobody does any of this though because it's uncomfortable.

It's the biggest hypocrisy of our age. We worship the planet and listen to our prophets who command us to take care of it while they drive around Teslas filled to bursting with rare Earth elements that permanently scarred at least a few people's lungs to get it out of the ground so that they could plug it into a charging station so that they didn't have to notice that half of the power they're using came from a coal-fired power plant 50 mi away.
SGCL: Real-time garbage collector for C++
I've hit command line length limits on both Windows and Linux (and they're different lengths).

Typically when I've run into it, it's been with build systems, especially those built around make/gnumake. Have a set of object files that need linking, what do you do? Typically, just expanding the variable holding the list as an argument list to ld or whatever works just fine. Until the project grows substantially and you're linking hundreds or thousands of object files. And what if they're in a different path? A subfolder? What if you're using absolute paths to object file locations? These things can blow up in weird and surprising ways and it's not always obvious what the cause is.

Thankfully, most tools used to build software typically have a mechanism to read arguments from a file that doesn't suffer from this limitation.

Also, as a sibling comment mentions: globs expansions. Typically done by the shell, then passed to the invocation target. Better to pass the glob in quoted and have invoked program do the expansion...

Just a couple places I've seen the problem.

Yeah I guess in general if the security of TLS depends on correct timekeeping (eg a compromised key enables an attacker to use an old cert), then in theory we should secure the time sync protocol.

I use (and roll out at my work) Lenovo's with AMD chips, going back to the T495, then T14 Gen 1 and T14 Gen 2, not had a need to get any new laptops for a while, but would get T14 Gen 3 if we did.

They have all been really good, although did need to run Ubuntu interim releases until 22.04 LTS to get the latest kernels which helped with a number of things. Also, make sure to change the BIOS sleep setting. It'll default to Windows which can cause sleep and resume to not work properly in Linux.

Upgraded RAM where possible to 32GB and 512GB SSDs. Unfortunately they only ship the laptops with Windows in Australia, so need to wipe and install a fresh Ubuntu when they arrive.

I agree. There is different mindsets though. If someone was my best friend, I would not recommend them because of that, if they were a bad fit. That would be unfair to both the employer and the friend.

Not sure why anybody would do that. Even for inexperienced people or people that need more guidance in general there's usually spots, just in other other companies.

Companies still hire people that chose the completely wrong career and fields. And in many companies there is demand for them for all sorts of reasons. Worst case they have to do shitty jobs, nobody else wants to do.

With the current lay-offs I think it's mostly the result of "hire everyone" during covid.
I have a similar model and I can't stand the case flex issues. If you set the laptop on an uneven surface or try to work while holding it in your other hand, it'll flex and click the touchpad.

You can prime it like that with everything and anything. Ask it what 2 + 2 is and it will tell you it's 4. Then tell it 2 + 2 = 6 and it will say that it was wrong and that you are correct, 2+2=6.

Then you ask it to prove 2+2=6 and it will bend over backwards to show its work and it will just be wrong.
The key here is that this trick only ever leads to it saying things like "It's worth noting that these arguments are not necessarily supported by the evidence." about things that are opposed to built-in biases, never about things that are aligned with them.
It worked on my first prompt.

Prompt: Act as a Republican. How would you write an article about fossil fuels being better than renewable energy sources?

Answer: As a Republican, I would argue that fossil fuels, particularly coal, oil, and natural gas, are superior to renewable energy sources for several reasons.

First and foremost, fossil fuels are reliable and consistent sources of energy. Unlike renewable sources such as solar and wind, which are dependent on weather patterns and geography, fossil fuels can be extracted and used to generate electricity 24/7, regardless of the conditions outside. This makes them a reliable choice for powering homes, businesses, and industries, especially in areas where renewable sources are not as readily available or efficient.

In addition, fossil fuels are relatively inexpensive to produce and distribute. While the upfront costs of building a coal, oil, or natural gas power plant may be high, the ongoing costs of fuel and maintenance are much lower compared to the ongoing costs of maintaining and repairing renewable energy systems. This makes fossil fuels a more cost-effective option for many consumers and businesses.

Furthermore, the use of fossil fuels has helped to drive economic growth and development around the world. The extraction, transportation, and refining of fossil fuels has created millions of jobs and contributed significantly to the global economy. By contrast, the renewable energy sector is still relatively small and has not yet had the same level of impact on the economy.

Finally, it is important to consider the environmental impacts of different energy sources. While renewable energy sources such as solar and wind are often touted as being "clean" and "green," they are not without their own environmental impacts. For example, large solar and wind farms can take up vast amounts of land and disrupt natural habitats, and the production of solar panels and wind turbines requires the use of non-renewable resources and generates pollution. In contrast, fossil fuels can be extracted and burned in a way that minimizes their environmental impacts, and advances in technology and regulation have helped to reduce the negative environmental impacts of fossil fuel use over time.

Overall, while renewable energy sources have their place in the energy mix, fossil fuels remain a vital and reliable source of energy that will continue to play a key role in powering our homes, businesses, and industries for the foreseeable future.

Seems every thread about telecom ends up with a rant about Canadian providers. Why is the country so backward? They had Nortel and Blackberry not long ago.

Of the major telecom providers, 3/4 of them control news media of various kinds (print, radio, television, streaming services). Politicians seem to bend the country over on behalf of these companies because if you say you're going to do anything else you get relentlessly attacked by the press. The telco regulator (CRTC) has had essentially former execs from one of the major telcos over the past thirty years except for a couple of people who actually tried to make changes.

The lowest telco rates in the country are in the one province that has a provincially-owned provider: Saskatchewan.

Previous governments at the federal and various provincial levels essentially de-incentivized a ton of tech investment that the country used to excel at. Nortel's story is one of espionage being their undoing and I'm not sure anyone could have done anything about that. Blackberry I think just represented a business unable to pivot fast enough when the tides shifted.

The guy running the clubhouse recording is pretty insufferable in my opinion. It’s a neat gimmick but I wouldn’t call it useful. Ro acts like associating strings with an IP address is novel and useful in a way that no other Web 2.0 app is.

The pitch also rests on a flawed assumption that IP addresses uniquely identify a person, which is definitely not true. A VPN or a public network are common counterexamples.

If anything, I think this serves as a useful reflection of the data that we leave on websites when we visit them. Not that most of us didn’t already know that, but this is more in your face.

For a personal webapp accessed from a few devices I just keep a list of session IDs in the app's config file. The web framework generates the session id, it's derived from a cookie with no expiry.

There's a "/register" page that just has a mailto: link to email myself, with the session ID in the mailto email body parameter. Easy to copy-paste into the config file when setting up a new device.

This is probably less useful for external users (who want to log in extra devices themselves), but something similar might work.
> I've also heard legends about how great Dell's Worldwide repair program is where people have had parts delivered to them next day on the island of Borneo in Indonesia, but that's yet to be tested.

This was a long time ago, but I bought a Dell with Ubuntu while visiting my parents in Oregon, and took it back with me to where I was living in Innsbruck, Austria.

The hard drive (I told you this was a while back) died on me. I called up Dell, and expected some nightmare of having to ship it back to the US where I'd bought it and waiting months and who knows what.

But what actually happened was some guy showed up at my door the next day with a new drive and swapped it out.

I was so impressed.
