> then making fake “meat” food science experiments a major part of your diet.

Vegetarian meat-like alternatives exist but their existence doesn’t mean that some large number of vegetarians subsist in large part on them any more than meat eaters subsist primarily on hamburgers. This seems like an argument against some straw man vegetarian that doesn’t often exist. I’ve been vegan for 25 years and consume commercially prepared meat alternatives maybe twice a month at most. Most vegans I know have similar dietary habits.

Lot of very subtle foundational distinctions. From pre-if statement era:

Fortran -> 1st order logic logic language / algol / "logic or" based / vector (array/struc): (n * m) -> don't need everything to complete current task(s) / (algebra or calculus) / mealy based

Lisp -> 2nd order logic based language / applicative / "logic and" base / polynomial (tree/heap): (1-n) -> MUST have everything to complete current task(s) / (algebra and calculus) / moore based

Why would I ever care if something is a struct or not a struct? Just that is almost zero useful information.

I do care about the size of a struct sometimes, but that would require me to go to the definition of the struct, so just seeing the word "struct" didn't help me one bit.

And I of course care about the members of the struct, but that again requires me to know what the actual members are which the word "struct" doesn't give me.

So what exactly does omitting the word "struct" hide again?

> the most inhospitable places we can imagine

That "we can imagine" is doing a lot of the work, there. We humans are pretty limited in experience, operating parameters and yes, imagination. On but one dimension, consider the range of all possible temperatures and how narrow the band in which the lifeforms of which we have knowledge can survive. Consider the same along all other dimensions like radiation, gravity, pressure, particulate density, magnetic field intensity, perhaps others we have not even discovered yet.

Carbon life that we know about is "robust" only considering the relatively narrow ranges on our own planet.

FTA: “And in the font we use on GOV.UK, the new line character has a bigger width than a space character – which is apparently unusual.

[…]

One of them incorrectly used the width of the new line character in its calculations, and so the box that it made was too small.”

I don’t understand that explanation. If the newline character in the font is wider than a space, why would the box end up too small if width calculations assume a newline will be rendered where the actual page will use a space?

I wonder why the anti-vaccine people can't crowd-fund serious systematic studies about the phenomenon.

All what I see are citations of papers about this or that detail and then use it as "proof!".

There are hundreds of millions if not even more people who are fearful of vaccines and/or don't trust the government/elites involvement in the research.

All they have to do is to hire a very large number of scientists to do serious independent research.
When you get a critical system certified for fielding you aren't just certifying the source code, but the actual executable and build process and test process and other things. This requires reproducibility for years to come. Choosing generic compilers may work in dev and parts of test, but not for actual deployment as a consequence (or it doesn't work well). Suppose you picked clang 11 several years back. Now you need to do an update to the system, you can still use clang 11, but not clang 14 at least not without doing a comprehensive recertification process. Also, if an issue is discovered in clang 11 it's likely been fixed in clang 14, but again you have to get your system recertified with clang 14. And that's if the issue is fixed, it may still exist.

With a vendor supplied compiler you can say, "We're using version 11.2". A year or two later an issue is discovered, the vendor will backport a fix to 11.2 giving you 11.2.1 which is much less effort for recertification. You aren't depending on the kindness of strangers (a terrible strategy) because you're actually paying someone to do the work.
Java Disease is its own topic.

> Are you suggesting people eat uncooked meat? Because that’s got an entirely different set of risks.

This is irrelevant to the original conversation, but actually I think in some circumstances yes. Most of the real danger from uncooked or undercooked meats comes from the way we factory raise and handle animals today. I've personally drank raw egg shakes 1000s of times in my life, but I stick to high quality eggs.

Overall, the cooking vs vit C argument is irrelevant and I don't know why you've brought it up when my original assertion for which you said I was "...dangerously missinformed." was "I think eating meat also doesn't require vit C to process..."

So who cares if cooking does or doesn't degrade vitamin C?

As to the study itself 2029 participants of which:

"""
Red meat consumption was reported as daily or more often by 85%. Under 10% reported consuming vegetables, fruits, or grains more often than monthly, and 37% denied vitamin supplement use. Prevalence of adverse symptoms was low (<1% to 5.5%).
"""

It's how often they ate red meat, not how much of their diet was meat.

Given

> Under 10% reported consuming vegetables, fruits, or grains more often than monthly, and 37% denied vitamin supplement use.

There's bound to be some crossover for which the 10% that didn't eat anything but meat also didn't take any supplements.

Seeing as the belief is that meat alone is sufficient among most of those that didn't supplement and or eat anything other than meat, I think it's fair to surmise that a larger portion of people did this than had issues since

Prevalence of adverse symptoms was low (<1% to 5.5%).

And really from the way you keep dodging the original topic for which you called me dangerously misinformed, and you misinterpreted much of the abstract in your argument's favor, I'm inclined to believe you are not really arguing in good faith.

Tran-oceanic shipping and long haul airplanes are the 2 places where biofuel theoretically has some merit, but it still has the problem that it is about 25% worse than just using fossil fuels.
Where is the usual workflow documented? I missed that memo.
I think the biggest argument against biofuels is that if they achieved large scale use, it would encourage people to mine biomass from existing forests instead of growing it.
You're talking about a simplified "pop" understanding of what a vaccine is and does. Even in elementary school I wasn't told that a vaccine prevents disease; I was told that it provokes an immune response that provides resistance to a disease.

The fact that people confuse the two is a legitimate public education problem. But it doesn't change what they actually are, or how medical professionals use the word.

> But it's a secondary effect, otherwise we would call more things "vaccines", as we know that for example "exercise helps with immune response".

It is the effect. I think everybody understands the difference between taking care of yourself and receiving a medical preparation that stimulates your immune system against a specific disease.

There is one aspect of biomass generators I always thought was overlooked. The process is very similar to making charcoal.

If we used wood as a fuel source, heated it enough to release methane and other violitile gases to power a generator, but not enough to release the majority of carbon, that would leave us with charcoal.

Instead of trying to extract the remaining energy from the charcoal, we could bury it. Which would sequester the carbon, and be fertilizer. Growing clovers or legumes would add nitrogen.

I am sure I have something wrong, and maybe a better answer is to just not do it with dedicated crops as the article suggests. Maybe we could grow corn for food, but cram the stalks into the generator and sequester the remaining carbon?
That 25% argument was addressed elsewhere in the comments.
It's been decades since I worked with Ada, so I could be wrong, but you could build it with an embedded runtime that allows you to do tasking and (I think I remember) exceptions. But it also has a language standard way to create limit certain features. The difference is the C++ is a grab bag, depending on the vendor, platform, RTOS, etc.

Is this a valid reason to move a trial? If so, I'd have expected every D.C. based trial against Trump to have been moved out as well.

It isn’t a concern to use human waste for non-food applications, and there are times that it actually is. With food or food that our food eats there is the risk of communicable disease.

The problem from there is twofold 1. Generally we grow things for food and beauty, both of which are kind of ruined by human manure. 2. Most needs for manure come from animal farms and they usually have an excess of the animal manure and don’t really need anymore.
> It would normalise that behaviour. There are plenty of studies that show pornography warps the watchers' minds.

Is there any evidence that it would normalize that behavior? That sounds like a moral intuition, not something backed by evidence. And even if the mind of the watcher was warped, is that any of your business as long as it's not increasing harm to society? In the West we let adults of sound mind harm themselves in lots of ways they choose, from eating terrible food to doing drugs to drinking to smoking to extreme sports. It's their body, their choice. As long as society doesn't have to bear the cost of it, like say with drunk driving, in the West we have accepted that adults have the right to do what they want to themselves.

> Even video game violence would do it but a vast majority of the experiences are easily identifiable as cartoonish. So it may give you the idea that you slaughtered a 1000 NPCs but each kill is nowhere close to the visceral reality. The games which have a focus on realistic killing, either do so to aliens/monsters or they are so off-putting that they never manage to find a large audience.

Great, then really deprived AI-generated porn will likely see the same lack of adoption and stay a niche phenomenon for a few people in a basement somewhere. What's the problem?

> In any case I look at the public discourse about war and violence and I find that people are eager to jump into fights and don't think twice about supporting their government in bombing and killing the shit out of other populations. They couch it in some shallow moral argument. Often the deterrent to war isn't some moral concern but the fact that the other side also has significant weaponry and might inflict casualties on your side as well.

Were people not eager to jump into fights and support their jingoistic government rhetoric prior to the creation of violent videogames? Do you have anything to back that popularity of violent videogame led to a rise in ultra-nationalism and aggressive foreign policy?

> In any case I hear a lot of this overton window concept and there is a lot of merit in the argument that excessive amount of AI generated deviant porn content will eventually make people think that all this depravity is normal and we should just look the other way.

Oh wow, now this is interesting.

To ELI5 this, what the commenter is saying is that you can take the "useless" L-Meth, and convert it to racemic, mixed D/L Meth.

Which you can then perform a second resolution step on, to convert/purify further, to the opposite chirality and get D-Meth.

The very interesting thing about this (if I were a clandestine chemist, or someone who wanted to get high at home), is that:

- AIBN is a readily available reagent, it's not difficult to acquire or would put you on any lists. This is in comparison to much of what you need for other synthesis techniques

- You can buy L-Meth legally over the counter. The extraction process would be a bit of a mess (quite literally) but should be doable, some basic recrystallization and/or conversion to freebase.

> Biofuels probably wouldn’t look like as much of an outlier as they do here, but I would still wager that they’re among the least efficient options.

I wouldn't wager because it's not a simple yes or no type question. There's a lot of ambiguities even in the analysis behind the graph presented in the article, but when it comes to fuels vs. batteries, it gets even more insane. Fuels have a weight advantage over batteries that gets magnified as the weight and range of the vehicle increases... and there's a lot of variance within fuels too. So, while an electric bicycle is going to be a no-brainer over a motorcycle for pretty much any scenario, it can be quite the opposite for something like a commercial truck.

I keep coming back to the economist argument that if we just captured the externalities related to climate change, we avoid having these discussions and simply look at the price of things... but of course, that's the hard part in all these discussions.

Antibiotics would be far worse to deregulate than even the hardest recreational drugs, because widespread flawed use would harm other people at scale by promoting drug resistent strains.

I think legalisation ought to be driven largely evidence of harm, not just by abuse of the drugs, but systemic harm both of legalisation vs. criminalization, but with a reasonably high level of ability to take personal risk.

E.g. for drugs where we know addiction drives crime, even fairly substantial harm from the drug itself might still mean legalisation is a net gain. Heroin might fit in that bucket (a small UK trial with prescribing it saw offending rates for those in the trial drop dramatically, and so reducing net harm to society).

At the same time high risk may justify a high degree of regulation of specific drugs to ensure people are at least aware of the dangers, and aim to reduce recruitment.

Many autoimmune diseases don't appear to be caused by immune memory, at least alone. There is evidence for cyclic inflammation by the innate immune system and also latent inflammation from gut bacteria and their outputs.

What you are describing (bone marrow radiation) has been used to treat Multiple Sclerosis. But diets (which radically change gut bacteria) have also been used to treat MS. So it's complicated, and it's possible for what is currently considered a single disease to be a common symptomatology for different root causes.
Anecdata and another case against center-dash touch control panels -which are integrated with control units.

Our 2013 Prius just had the center-dash unit crash likely due to the audio sub-system. And it would have burned but for a fuse blowing (replacing the fuse lead to smoking.) This took out the rear camera display along with climate controls, audio, ...

Fortunately someone at the Toyota shop we patronize had just replaced their same model year working unit with an iPad (hence learned that's a thing in the US even if illegal in the UK.) So what was going to be a ~$2,000 USD rebuilt unit (~$5,000 OEM new but a guy in town rebuilds them because there is apparently enough demand) was going to be less expensive.

Unfortunately, our Prius's unit seems to be unique to a particular finish/package for the model. And this particular unit type (a JBL variant) has connectors different from all other Toyota center console units.

Gist of the situation: failure of what is likely the audio section of the integrated center-dash unit took out rear camera, climate controls, audio, etc. with high price tag to repair when simple loss of audio unit would have been ignored.

The law is deliberately silent on exactly how long "necessary" is, as it cannot possibly define that for all uses of personal data in all circumstances.

Webkit bugs do not get transferred to radar to be worked on. Assuming the bug is actually in webkit (eg not a bug in the safari app or an underlying system framework), all the work happens in the public bug database. Code review, patch dev, etc for webkit occurs in bugzilla.

There are many reasons for linking bugzilla bugs to radar, but the big ones are scheduling, other project dependencies inside Apple, security reports (so that reporters can be mentioned in release notes, etc).

The important thing is that the b.w.o->radar cross referencing is not for development specifically.
