Well that's not true. Most cattle is grass fed for the majority of it's life at which point they will have them eat at feed lots to fatten up.

Second, feed lots can use things like by-products of sugar production (molasses, beet pulp pellets, etc...) for feed. These are not human consumable and require no extra food to be grown. I've worked with a company that does over half a billion in revenue on this alone.

There is a lot more to this than your comment is indicating.
This seems like such a strange fight to take on. People have been substituting ingredients in recipes since there have been recipes. Any dish becomes a lamb dish if you put lamb in it.
> Amazon shipping has got progressively slower as time went on.

While there are definitely periods where I would have agreed with you, recently Amazon has seriously increased the % of products which are deliverable same day.

It's also not just for common items. I can buy a thermocouple amplifier board and have it delivered today. It really scratches an itch when you can get components for a project delivered THAT DAY. I could be playing with thermocouples TODAY. Hard to resist.

Interesting; that makes a lot of sense. This insight makes me think there's a continuum between brains set to "control all thoughts" and brains set to "autmatically explore all possibilities."

I think I'm pretty neurotypical and fall somewhere in the middle, but I can see how a minor change in that "setting" would have a big impact on my behavior.
I believe you should have the same attitude when giving an interview e.g. to a member of the media. They will make it feel like a personal conversation which is intended to get you to share your story and views, but in the end they are really telling their story and their views, and will use what you say to support that whether you agree with what they are saying or not.
Probably just more visibility on the matter. Once a major issue happens, things tend to get followed for a while. It can get bandwagoney
> Just recently, my manager told me I fail to see the big picture.

In my opinion, some companies are just not set up to allow employees to see the big picture. For example:

> The smartest and most productive employees are given the most tasks. It can be hard to see the bigger picture when you're drowning on multiple complicated projects with no occasional breathing room to assess and reflect and make good long-term decisions.

> Information is siloed. The only communication you ever have with customers or decision makers might come strictly from your boss who might be a project manager. If they don't think that one piece of information is necessary for you to hear, you'll never come up with some amazing insights into the business. The failure could be your bosses, not yours.

> Employees are micromanaged to death. Every decision that you're not specifically authorized to make puts your job at risk. If you treat employees like children, they're not going to stick their neck out and are only going to do what they're told.
That letter is really something. I tend to think of grandiose flattery towards royalty as something that belongs in the ancient world. The puns on "small" and "least" at the end were also unexpectedly funny. I wonder how much people took this kind of flattery seriously, or if it was done with eyes rolled and tongue in cheek.

These pics remind me of an indy game way back on the PS3 called Flow[0]. It was designed as a low stress, low impact, and a fairly calming game. You were a small underwater creature that swam around collecting things to become a bigger creature. You used the 3-axis feature of the controller instead of the d-pad and joysticks.

There was also the health marketing angle that flopped when people starting looking at the ingredients.
You still have people paying for their waste disposal, so I would assume transport cost should be covered by that.
Meanwhile, the power company in this city burns plastic (and all kinds of waste) in their co-generation plant and gets electricity and residential heating.
If that sounds very difficult to believe you might also be shocked to learn that we are descendants of single cell organisms as well! That's how it works.
I had the same problem with something so much more benign than that.

I was a Green Card holder. Technically, you need your card and foreign passport to enter the country.

I got yelled at for giving them my passport once, with the guard claiming it’s useless and not needed. So then I started having it on hand but not providing it on the spot, at which point I’d get yelled at for not providing the needed passport upfront. It’s almost as if they like yelling more than consistently following rules.
Your source doesn't support your assertion:

> NASA's budget is now $0 though, since the military budget all went to Medicare with nothing left to spare for anything else. Along with the FAA and every other government department.
Apple often delays product releases if they aren’t sure the product is going to deliver on its promise of high usability, or if the manufacturing can’t yet be scaled to the volumes they know they will need to pump out if it is successful. I wish more companies had this level of discipline.
This is just another in a long list of problems that existing file system have when built on an architecture that was created before there was sufficient storage to hold more than a few hundred total files (decades ago).

I have been working on a new data manager that could replace existing file systems with something much better. You can store hundreds of millions of files in a single container (I call them pods instead of volumes) and put tags on everything. Folders can hold millions of files with virtually no degradation in performance. Searches to find subsets of files based on tags or other criteria is lightning fast.

The software has been in beta for about a year and is available for free download at www.Didgets.com yet interest has been very moderate in spite of problems like the one discussed in this thread.

Yeah, this is the issue that most people seem to miss. It's not the flavour that is the issue, which is why products that attempt to replicate it are successful with vegans/vegetarians.

What we find abhorrent is that a living, sentient being had to be raised and slaughtered in mostly inhumane conditions, in a supply chain that is evil to humans and animals alike.

Removing that element from my diet is the goal, not the flavour. I don't understand why this is so hard for some people to understand.

Why is it actually so difficult for filesystems to deal with such folders? I mean, a million is not such a large number, not for a computer anyhow. A table with million rows doesn't generally causes a RDBMS to choke, why should filesystems?

I used METAR for running, or rather to say which days I'm allowed to not run.

I noticed that when the day was long, and I was feeling tired and lazy it was a lot easier to find some excuse why not to run that day. This excuse was often the weather. But on the other hand I didn't want to say no matter the weather I must run, because that is obviously excessive. So I made up a simple "algorithm" to decide if the weather fits the minimums, and if it did I must go and run. And I choose to base it on the measurements from the METAR of the local airport.
Obligatory: https://www.sqlite.org/fasterthanfs.html

"SQLite reads and writes small blobs (for example, thumbnail images) 35% faster¹ than the same blobs can be read from or written to individual files on disk using fread() or fwrite().

"Furthermore, a single SQLite database holding 10-kilobyte blobs uses about 20% less disk space than storing the blobs in individual files..."
Yeah, I have one of the Explorer models, it was also great to be able to wink to take a picture - it made it much easier to capture fleeting moments than pulling a phone out, especially when I didn't have hands free. It was also super easy to check emails/texts and decide if I needed to pull out my phone, which ironically made them less disruptive.

Shame about the PR backlash, all I ever got from anyone was curiosity and a desire to try it out, which makes me think that the PR backlash was partly manufactured by trumping up an unrepresentative sample. It's not like these things were recording video constantly (though a query-able augmented memory made via transcription/abstraction of always-on video would be awesome).
You are actually supposed to notify the USSSS (for the draft) within 15 days if you are a man between the ages of 18 and 27, but I assume most people don't.
I believe this video contains is mistaken in its claim that, in the absence of a base current, PNP transistors (unlike NPNs) freely conduct current between emitter and collector, and that an increasing base current restricts this? IIRC, both types have a high impedance when unbiased, which is reduced as the base current increases, and the only operational difference is the polarity of the voltages for normal operation.

Yes, marines like using a term that separates them from another group, because of a classification that the US military makes. Good for them!

But, as a matter of actual common usage, which long pre-dated them, the term "soldier" has a more general meaning, which definitely applies here:

2. (by extension, nonstandard) Any member of a military, regardless of specialty.

3. An enlisted member of a military service, as distinguished from a commissioned officer.

They even meet the primary definition except for the classification (also arbitrary) of being sea-based rather than land-based.

1. A member of a ground-based army, of any rank, but especially an enlisted member.

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/soldier

If you're not actually interested in the petty rivalry, "soldier" communicates a correct understanding here.
I think you're misunderstanding the difference between answering questions truthfully and how your answers are received.

Or may be by realising that there is always someone at top and someone below you in everything. And hopefully that will reduce the urge to be at top of everything and that results in compassion towards one's own self.

> The time it takes to finish is almost completely dependant on those parts you don't understand, the others you just fly through. So even though the understanding and skill of the above programmers looks very similar, programmer B who has fewer holes in his knowledge will likely perform about 10x better than programmer A.

Agreed. I can't call that a 10x programmer though, it's just a matter of what is their field of expertise and how well it maps to the problem at hand. I'd say that stems from how we collectively use the word "programmer" (or developer, etc) to mean just about anything. Now move both A and B to a project domain where B has more knowledge gaps than A and suddenly A is the 10x programmer. But that means neither is really 10x, it just changes project to project.

To compare to other fields, imagine the top heart surgeon in the country. But then they get asked (for some weird reason) to do a knee surgery. Maybe they'll be able to muddle through it by remembering things from medical school and looking things up, but it'll be a much worse job compared to an orthopedic surgeon who does knees every day.

Would anyone in the medical industry say that this orthopedic surgeon is a 10x surgeon because they did it so much better compared to the heart surgeon? We can all laugh because that's clearly nonsense. But we use such comparisons in the software world as if they made sense.

Or to stay in sports, we'd never say the 100m champion is a 10x runner compared to the marathon champion. Sure they both run, but their skills are in different things.

Way back in the 90s I read "New Need Not Be Slow"[1], about usenet, and one of the issues that came up consistently was performance limits because of the number of inodes and the filesystem. When I was tasked with setting up INN for my organization, I was able to get a DEC running OSF/1 with advfs, which at the time was a highly optimized filesystem, to more or less bypass the performance problems of UFS.

New FTX Chief Says Crypto Exchange Could Restart
You have this backwards to the point I thought you were being sarcastic. Cows and pigs require a huge multiplier of agriculture (and water) to feed them in order to produce an equivalent amount of food for humans.

Thanks to subsidies targeting livestock feed, it is cheaper to buy feed shipped from the next state over than it is to grow it yourself. Thus, petroleum based fertilizer, transportation fuel, and dung reservoirs.

Then there’s the whole issue of methane from cow farts being a serious source of greenhouse effects. It would be funny if only it wasn’t.

And, the obesity/diabetes link is also tied to farm subsidies making starchy corn and wheat practically free while leaving actually healthy vegetables to compete against practically free.

The only way out is to ramp farm subsidies down to zero. That would be political suicide because it will increase the price of food. Especially meat. But, the alternative is to continue to slowly eat our way into diabetes and global warming.
This viewpoint implies that everyone successful achieves it through merit. I think a ton of people achieve success just through insane confidence.

Look at something like Scientology. It is just one insanely confident man willing an entire religion into existence and holding it all together with his own over-confidence. I hate cults but they are an example of how delusion levels of self-confidence can bring things into existence that make no logical sense.

I eat less (almost no red meat), but that is as far as I'll go. Taste is one thing, but also the high quality proteins and nutrition, plus I don't see the problem in killing animals in and of itself. I can't replicate this calorie-per-calorie strictly with veg without supplementation, nor do I feel as good. That approach doesn't seem "green" or financially viable for everyone, notwithstanding that some people do better on vegan diets than others. As far as I can tell, modest consumption is best for optimal health, by virtue that replacing them with.
Hi! This is the first time I'm posting publicly about this in-development project so thanks for the feedback.

Causing a conflict will cause a .jamdiff file to be written out on the next sync with the remote changes and I'm planning on adding branches in the next update which will make how this works more clear. There's still a concept of parallel editing, since features cannot be developed/tested simultaneously without breaking. Also, anytime there's a conflict, we can just make a new branch and ask the developer to merge or keep working on the new branch.

The client will watch your file system for changes and hold a gRPC stream open for remote changes. If you don't want to sync your changes, you don't have to leave the command running. CI/CD support will come later.

I'll be compliant with regulations soon, but I'm not really expecting people to use this yet. I mostly wanted to release the source and see what people thought of the project. I am using GDPR compliant Plausible analytics if that makes you feel better!

Thanks for the suggestion on the source, the zip file is up-to-date and is part of my build process. I might host on Github in the future but really wanted to make this the source of truth. My goal of open-sourcing is not to get contributors, but to give back to people who want to view the code and self host.

As far as scaling issues go, I'm planning on using an approach similar to https://madebyevan.com/algos/log-spaced-snapshots/ but I'm still figuring out the best way to handle commits.
I think the difference is that mixed reality is assuming you will mostly stay in one place with defined boundaries, and the device doesn't take in a lot of spatial information about where you are. But it has video pass through so you are aware of your surroundings. Augmented reality is similar, but it is more like trying to illustrate on the world around you (put an object on the real table in front of you). AR is draw on your environment as you move around. MR is like VR with pass through.
Over my years working for defense contractors, I've held clearences from multiple agencies and have gone through 5 or so polygraph tests. In everyone of them, the examiners were professional in every sense of the word. They clearly explained the procedure, went over what questions were to be asked, and ran the tests calmly and fairly. I never had a reason to complain about any one of them. Now, I didn't like to be tested but it was part of process to get and hold the clearance so I could do my job so I went through it. I never heard of any of my colleagues complain either. Still, every job has its assholes and you were unlucky to encounter one.
This general approach is true within all Jewish traditions. For example, if you get sick on Shabbat you're allowed to drive to the hospital (and doctors are allowed to help you), or if you're ill during Rosh Hashana you don't have to fast. It's a very nice aspect of Judaism: "follow the rules, yes, but don't be stupid about it."
Nothing. It's been a slow decline.
I think it was on the Off Menu podcast that the hosts summed it up perfectly, that plant-based meat is a great substitute for the dodgy low quality meat you would get at a kebab shop at 1am, but you aren't going to get a the quality of a nice steak.

None of the plant based meat I have tasted has been great, but I'd scoff it down for a quick post pub snack.
Right. It can also generalize for any non-integral square root of an integer √n. Let a be the integer ⌊√n⌋, such that a < √n < a+1 -- strict inequalities, because √n is non-integral. So 0 < √n - a < 1 and the same proof works with

k' = √n k - a k (instead of √2 k - 1 k)
= k(√n - a) (so 0 < k' < k)

√n k' = n k - a k √n (is integral; k' ∈ K)
This is absolutely not the case. Law enforcement background checks are more intense than clearance, and drug use policies are very black-white.

The general principle is that you must be unimpeachable such that your testimony is valid in court.

I understand, that Typst is very young now, and can not support all spread of typographic features, questions are about flexibility of internal architecture, which can (or cannot) allow to support all these features theoretically without global re-design.

I've started to plan something like this several times in last 20 years, but always dropped project (as it was pet-project for me) due to understanding that it is very hard design problem.

Good luck to your project! IMHO, we need something like this!

The article is pushing a narrative. Every once and awhile these flair up, since there's a lot of scared people in the traditional meat/dairy industries right now, since they're losing counter/shelf space in supermarkets and menu options in restaurants all over the world.

I'm not sure if the author has stepped into a grocery store recently, but they're entire aisles/half-aisles dedicated to just plant-based options now, which was unheard of 25 years ago when I originally went vegan.

Hanging the success of an entire movement and industry on two of the most recent entrants to the market seems like a very skewed metric to base your opinion on when the evidence to the contract is absolutely everywhere if you want to look for it or notice it.

The fact that they're not is telling.

> With regard to solid-state storage, Ric noted only that 1Tb still costs a good $1000. So rotating media is likely to be with us for a while.

Here in 2023, 1 TB fast flash costs ~$50-100.

> What if you wanted to put together a 100Tb array on your own? They did it at Red Hat; the system involved four expansion shelves holding 64 2Tb drives. It cost over $30,000, and was, Ric said, a generally bad idea. Anybody wanting a big storage array will be well advised to just go out and buy one.

Nowadays, you can get 16 TB spinning rust disks for ~$15/TB, so a 96 TB array (without redundancy) would take 6 disks and cost $1500. If you wanted to use mirrors for speed and simple redundancy, you could build a full NAS that fits in 2U with a flash cache in front of 12 x 16 TB disks for well under $5000.
