Well one of the things that makes it neat is that it works for any Monad. Where Monad means any implementation of the following method

F<Y> SelectMany(F<X> input, Func<X, F<Y>> map)

this could be a function where you have a list of things, apply a function to each element that returns a list and the result is the concatenation of the individual lists. Or you could use it for stuff like tasks where the result is a task that returns something like `await map(await input)`.
Indeed, and the article says 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. Scofield asserts that Guillard is known for “solving” mysteries based on tarot and “readings.” Doesn’t that mean that an audience familiar with her is more likely to interpret anything she says as premised on occult readings, and not on some undisclosed actual evidence?'

With regard to the last sentence, I would argue that the target audience is likely to see no difference here, and what's more, regard the statements as being based on disclosed actual evidence.
I'm not sure that's "T shaped" as much as it is "cross functional", which can be done without requiring anyone to know about anything outside their silo, as long as someone crosses silos and communicates. That's more of a systems engineering model, where a specific role forms the bridge and only the bridge, and specialists form the teams. It's a very Aerospace model of doing business.

And you are absolutely sure that there is no causal relationship between publishers getting paid and authors getting paid?

Yes, the status quo is ridiculous, with libraries having to limit "copies" of ebooks and even simulating wear and tear of these on one side, and having to deal with DRM buying books on the other.

But according to at least one author that I‘d trust in the matter, publishers also provide valuable services to them, such as taking the financial risk of the first print run (including editing, marketing etc.) and paying authors upfront for it.

That said, I really hope that we‘ll see an "iTunes store for ebooks" (open format, no DRM) sooner rather than later.

Unless there's a limit on how much can be put into the central bank account this would have an extremely severe impact during a financial crisis.

The central bank account would be safer than government bonds, meaning in a flight to safety interest rates on government debt would rise as money drained to the safer central bank account. Exactly the opposite of what you want when you may need government to act urgently and expansively to solve whatever problem has occurred and likely only the elected government has the authority to solve that problem.

This isn't even wrong. Newly created money isn't given to recipients. It's either borrowed by financial institutions, who must repay it with interest, or used to purchase government and agency bonds from private holders in the open market.

When a financial institution borrows from a central bank, the financial institution records an increase in financial obligations (a credit to Liabilities), along with a corresponding increase in cash & equivalents (a credit to Assets). All of this is in the bank's balance sheet, easily verifiable (e.g., by reading annual reports).

What you're suggesting (somehow getting central banks to lend newly created money to individuals even if they don't ask for it) makes no sense.
No, I was not being facetious. I am not a regular user of Python, mostly have been writing/maintaining software in C++ and (in the past three years) C#. I came across it because a colleague (fluent in Python) had used scipy.interpolate in some experimentation and now the algorithm he came up with has to be implemented in C#, so I investigated whether scipy.interpolate could be called from C# and then found out that its source was in Fortran.

But just like Fortran is still used for nearly every math-intense library, mostly invisible for most of the users, I suspect that C will still be around in 50 years from now.

I agree, with his observation that C should be no longer your language of choice for new projects. I personally still prefer using C/C++ for my private software projects, simply because it is the language I am most fluent in. This year I used it for AoC.

TBH, familiarizing oneself with several subfields of a single field is still not very polymath-y though. Of course, all fields are just much bigger than they were in the 15th or 18th century, so this is more difficult if you want to be actually useful, but IMO being a real polymath still entails being knowledgeable of various disjoint subjects. Like poetry, marine biology, and systems programming.

And, of course, since software has been eating the world, domain knowledge about the field in which your software is actually used is one of the most valuable traits to have, because it matters very little how perfect and elegant your solution is if it is a solution to the wrong problem.
Oh wow, that sounds like some special kind of hell. I sincerely hope this doesn't catch on.

This is an excellent comment! And this is a *very* strong threshold to reach:

> No matter what your threshold for evidence needed is, it can be met.

I'm fearful of mentioning any specific current scientific controversy, but it seems to me that many of the current politically charged topics fail to meet this very strong threshold.

I guess I'm thanking you because while I had an intuitive sense for this, I didn't know this specific wording of "you can meet any threshold for evidence".
The atomic model is certainly beyond a significant level of doubt. Surely it is not totally beyond question however. There remains a very small chance that an alternative model of the universe is consistent with the experiments you have in mind, and better explains the outcomes of other (as yet unperformed) experiments.

I mean, they're table manners for a nerd messageboard so a lot more subjective than defamation law. You can always reverse engineer something out of them explaining the quality (or lack thereof) of some specific comment, after the fact.

Less subjective are the effects and you can see them here - if a comment mostly produces corrections and rules lawyering, it's not a great comment and fills up the thread with meta and fluff.

To take an even broader view - if the goal of the forum is curious conversation, good toplevel comments have to look like invitations to curious conversation to others. If others perceive the comment as reply guy well-actually-ing, the possible positive intent one can extract from it armed with the guidelines and a cheese cloth doesn't matter that much.

These tools go back to research by Lauri Karttunen and others at
Xerox Research Center Europe in Grenoble, where an attempt was made
to create highly efficient compilers and runtime libraries for finite-state
transducers, i.e. to move beyond regular expressions to regular RELATIONS.
This not only permits to formalize replacements (regular expressions with an
"output tape"), but also creates reversible automata (input and output roles can be swapped) and leads to a domain specific language that describes transducers in very readable ways, including sub-automata naming, so that it can be useful for formal specification or linguistic rules (phonology, morphology, i.e. word or sound grammar). The latter two projects are open source clones of the former
effort. Once you have used these for a week, you will never want to get back to ugly "ordinary" regexes again.

I may be reading it wrong, but when I look at chart "Table Characteristics stratified by having ever received any influenza vaccination" the Never received influenza vaccine group has much less diseases - Atrial fibrillation 0.67% vs vaxxed 2.12%, Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease 1.52% vs vaxxed 4.1% and so on and then we reach "Any stroke event" 0.52% vs vaxxed 1.25% while not that much hiugher average age 48.34 vs 38.98 (unvaxxed).

So even if they suposedly lower the risks within the vaxxed group, by joining the vaxxed group your risk actually grows compared to staying in unvaxxed group and I don't really see odds for both comparable groups.

I would take any study coming from authoritarian Canada, which froze bank accounts of people opposing COVID lockdowns, with big grain of salt.

Also even according CDC flu vaccine efficacy is only 40 to 60% and that's assuming it works at all, if they don't match the correct variant you are somewhere around 0% efficacy, might as well take placebo with same effect.

You have to join five tables in a query. What join order will you pick in your execution plan? Will you use the same ordering for different WHERE clause parameters? What if you add an index?

What you're proposing was tried in the 1970s (see CODASYL) and it was a terrible idea.
I own both a Framework and a Thinkpad X1 Carbon Gen 10. I bought them both a few months ago, and I've been using the Thinkpad X1 Carbon line for years.

Between the two of these, it's the Thinkpad hands down that I'd rather use. It's designed for Linux and has thousands of hours more R&D put into it.

I really love what the Framework folks are doing, but their laptop feels like a Raspberry Pi when stacked against a Thinkpad. Hobbyist, toyish. It's going to need a lot more work to feel comparable. A higher budget, more premium option would be great too.

Maybe they were an acceptable compromise in a time before e-books and e-readers, but they are neither fair to users, nor do they seem high enough to fairly compensate content creators without their normal revenue channels.

But please do it properly then, i.e. something like a "public Spotify/Netflix" for books and films that correctly attributes view counts, rather than just handing money almost exclusively to already popular/financially stable creators as measured by past sales records.
Full disclosure, I work for a fully-fledged authentication solution (FusionAuth) and if your PoC succeeds, my guess is you'll look to make a move to a similar solution. But I understand your desire to go quick and dirty.

You didn't provide a ton of details (the programming language affects library options, for example) but I would go one of the following ways:

* login with a social provider like google, facebook or github. I don't know what your audience is, but hopefully you know which of these (or any other) would have the most uptake. This delegates the entire authentication process to a third party and allows the user to choose the level of security they want around their account without involving you at all.

* look for an OSS library in your language that offers magic token login. This is what you are describing when you talk about the token. Implement that. If you can find such a library, this will be a simpler solution.

> What is the better way to implement this? Should I stick to the plain old login-password combination?

I'm not your user and we don't have any idea what your userbase is. I'd ask them. Lots of tech folks want a username and password so they can use a password manager. Non-tech folks would probably prefer one of the two above options.

Yeah for UI it makes a lot of sense. Especially if those are "standalone" (for lack of a better word) elements. For instance, changing the accelerators (I guess that's related to the animation when opening a menu, right?) cannot really conflict with anything else. So it's perfect to use system-wide configurations like that.

But I wonder about key bindings. I think it makes sense to have guidelines, and to use "Cmd + Q" to quit whenever it makes sense. But defining this as a high-level action "quit", and letting the user define the binding (e.g. "I want Cmd + S to quit") seems rather complicated to me. If "Cmd + S" is already set system-wide for the "save" action, then the system could tell you "that will disable the 'save' action, are you sure?". But if you go for "Quit with Cmd + J", and "Cmd + J" is not a system-wide binding but instead is used by... say... Blender. Then the system will happily change "Ctrl + Q" with "Ctrl + J", and now what happens if you hit "Ctrl + J" in Blender? Should it quit, or should it do what Blender does for "Ctrl + J"?

I am not sure everything can be configurable. My Firefox toolbar is at the top, on mobile I can have it at the bottom (not sure I can do that on Desktop). But I can't have it in the middle of the page, or vertically on a side. That's a decision that was made by the Firefox devs, not by the system settings. That does not mean we should not expect sane defaults, but I would argue that ":q" is a sane default in vim.
I think it really depends on the severity of the deviation and blockage. Before I I had the surgery, the difference between nostrils was significant. Left side was normal and the right was like breathing through a very small diameter straw. Post surgery, I sleep much better and rarely snore. I feel more comfortable when running or biking long distances while only breathing through my nose. Do yourself a favor and get an evaluation if you have a blockage or deviated septum!

You can dismiss a study with 22 participants as unscientific, if they could have reasonably done a study with many more participants, or if someone else has already done so.

In this case, it's an fMRI study. fMRI access is expensive, and analysing results is time consuming. It's reasonable to start small. If the smaller study comes up with anything interesting, then you can do a larger study later to confirm, and the experience you gained in the smaller study will help you design the larger one.
No, I haven't heard of this connection until recently. I've seen 'mouthbreather' used as a derogatory term online, which is probably where I've seen it the first time.

Occasionally. Her sleeping patterns have regularized now - though off the drops, she's somewhat more prone to wake around 03:00 seemingly recharged, only to fall back to sleep around 06:00 and then be near-impossible to wake up an hour later - but at 3.5 y.o., we have some success in talking her back into sleep, so it's no longer a big issue.

The drops still come in handy in specific situations that we know will disrupt her sleeping pattern, but that too has become less of an issue. For example, it used to be that car travel in the afternoon would have her sleeping through the whole trip, and then refusing to sleep at night, and it would take a couple of days to get her back to the usual sleeping pattern. But in the last ~6 months, she stopped sleeping so much in the car, and learned to fall asleep if the right ritual is followed.
I thought then and still say that had Novell ported IPX/SPX to Unix[0] (they did own Unix in the 90s), Microsoft would never have been able to make them irrelevant.

Because the biggest reason Netware lost was the inability to develop software on the platform.

This severely limited the value of Netware as a server operating system, as developers (for the most part) prefer to develop on the the platform (cross-compiling for other flavors of *nix doesn't count) for which they're developing software.

What's more, IIUC, the development tools for Netware were just awful. Which additionally limited the number of developers working on Netware-related applications.

And even those few folks mostly abandoned it as NT gained popularity as a server and a development platform. Had there been a robust user/development environment (like Unix), that likely wouldn't have happened.

[0] I am aware that Netware was mostly written in x86 assembler, but porting IPX/SPX and a few other bits and bobs would have allowed Novell to migrate to a Unix platform without having to rewrite the entire OS.
