This is straight-up tinnitus. Ever since I had ear surgery, I have various types of tinnitus. When the low form started, it reminded me of an idling diesel engine. But of course I mainly get the kind that is easy to mistake for cicadas. Sometimes I've had static sounds, too.

When I was still healing, I would also get phantom choral voices! That was really disturbing. It usually was triggered and filtered by the bathroom fan, so I basically got to crap in a heavenly soundscape, lol.
There are ways to get around it. I'm confident you will see much fewer CAPTCHAs on our network, as we have mitigations in place for it.
Interesting, I usually just write the SQL too in most projects, but in Elixir I love Ecto because it's so close to the SQL but has an elegant and powerful way to handle interpolated values.

As someone who eats 1 quart a week, no.

I stopped eating as much ice cream when I stopped cycling as much, easy way to gain weight quickly. However, I noticed I could eat 1 tub per week without any weight gain if I averaged 50 miles per week (must be hilly though)

In germany people are hunting for empty bottles (and recently: cans) since you get between 25 and 50 cents for returning them to shops.
It is really a lot more simple than that.

You have generators, consumers, and delivery.

Generators make power and sell it (Wholesale)

The delivery man buys power and pays for transmission infrastructure to move it.

Consumers buy power and pay the delivery man (Retail).

Transmission costs might be high or low, but it shouldnt matter to the generator or consumer. The delivery man pays for it and it is their incentive to find the cheapest source including transmission.
Definitely it would be cool if this handled unofficial names/nicknames. "The City" would be particularly interesting, or "Chinatown".

Also the inverse: what are the most popular names for the same location. "San Francisco" vs "SF" vs "San Fran", for example, or "DC" vs "Washington".
Why is eating a lot of ice cream necessarily going to not help you lose weight though? Also, does sugar, particularly when it is eaten with the other ingredients in ice cream, actually increase the risk of type II diabetes? I think we have no proof and the article is making that point.
You're right that this article's question is ridiculous but I worry about transhumanism and the abuse such technology will bring.

I'm working on something in this space, though god knows if I'll ever finish it. And that's one of two approaches I considered to that problem. Another is to have a signed deletion marker saying something to the effect of "there was a block here with hash d9841a, but now there isn't anymore, and I'm its replacement".
I haven't come across problems in years that were CPU bound/where I needed something like Rust

This is where Rust falls short of C#: scaling to the issue at hand. C# can build you a beautiful app at a high-level but also lets you dick with pointers and assembly at a low level. Rust insists on defaulting to pass-by-move and an arcane trait system that hold it back from being usable in large projects.
I really like your saying.

For whatever reason this reminded me of something attributed to Groucho Marx:

I was a Green Beret in 5th Special Forces Group out of Ft. Campbell. We had access to a program called THOR3 which managed our fitness, physical therapy, and diet – the entire program was staffed by former NFL coaches and dietitians – high end stuff (your tax dollars at work).

I was rocked back on my heels one day when our dietician said the best possible recovery drink for us was chocolate milk. She made the case based on both the nutritional content, but also on the palatability, affordability, availability, and psychology of it.

"You could make a protein shake but those taste like crap and you're going to be exhausted when you get home. Buy a jug of chocolate milk, slug it back, and drive on."

I think there's also the added psychological 'relief' that comes with being able to indulge once in a while when you're spending the entire day being disciplined; like 'cheat days.'
I have to wait over a month to see a registered dietitian to _hopefully_ deal with SIBO. This is not unusual for healthcare.

The world after usb-pd looks so different. Everything used to be expensive bulky & proprietary.

It turns out usb-pd works pretty damned well.

It'll be a while before anything meaningful happens for this market though. 100w would power a huge range of tools but not all. 240w would be great, work for a huge range of tools with ton of overhead. But the lack probably has a much lower voltage that would need to be up-converted to 48v, then the power switching in the tool needs to handle higher voltage too (which I think is actually not a real concern, could actually help a lot).

But more obviously, it's a question of form factors. Tools have shapes that conform to & support their packs. USB doesn't have any kind of a play here right now, only defines a connector, cable & how data & power are to be transmitted.

It's hard to imagine getting out of this tar-pit. Whose going to start building more expensive packs that spit out standard 48v usb-pd? What hero would do that?

Side note, some day I'd really love to see a much higher amperage USB connector. Usb-d should be able to do like 30a, 1.5kW at 48v. Big ask, but it's one potential exciting frontier I hope "universal" extends into. My other ask is for a longer range 5+ gbps USB4, but that seems maybe potentially harder, I dunno.
GPT-4 is absolutely 100% worth the subscription. It’s paid itself back in the hours of time it has saved me in looking up new frameworks and code.

I wanted to create a pretty complex form with autofill. It suggested react select, helped me customize the styling and deploy it within minutes. Normally, I would have taken an hour just to go through the documentation and the somewhat complicated styling.

A bit orthogonal but I very much consider academic study beyond undergraduate to be an anti-signal. Not so much at an institution like Stanford, where doing a PhD still means something; but very quickly past the sparse handful of top tier universities, a PhD is little more than a UBI program for people unable to integrate into the workforce.

> Is it really that hard to round those corners?

Yes.

They are unlikely to ever be 'round'. Perhaps when the entire scene, and not just reflections is rendered by raytracers. That way one can represent mathematically correct curves. At that point we'll basically be throwing away all advancements in GPU tech.

Besides, it's utterly unnecessary when we can fake roundness by increasing the number of polygons and by clever illumination.
My wording was clumsy (“intra-city place name”) but yeah that appears to be the reason it’s ignored.

How can you say that when birth rates vary so widely with time and place? Even just in the modern developed world, couldn't we copy whatever Israel is doing [1]? It may not be easy or guaranteed, but we don't need to go as high as Israel's 3.1 - the replacement level of 2.1 would suffice.

[1] Israel has been in a constant baby boom since independence, with the highest fertility rate in the OECD at 3.1 children per woman. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baby_boom#Israel
Let the explainer[1] explain why this really doesn't make all that much sense:

"We chose to blend three properties to match our perception of how this plays out in reality:

Distance: the proximity to a place.

Population: the size of a place is a pretty good indicator of its importance.

Wikipedia article length: an extra layer of nuance for the cultural importance/awareness of places that may not have a large population."

I'm interested in Beam Analytics partly because I personally find the new Google Analytics 4 user interface (especially around cohorts) to be surprisingly frustrating to use, and I have used the previous versions of Google Analytics for 10+ years.

Regardless of any "superficial" characteristic (I think many would argue that being Black in America in anything but superficial) what exactly do you think an optimal outcome is when selecting something like a judge? What is a high "performance" judge? Because even though for the first few hundred years of our nation's history, we selected judges only from a very large group of old, white, catholic/protestant men, we sure have come up with plenty of incompetence and corruption.

Should we hire judges based solely on their LSAT score? Or perhaps only judges from the most ivy league, selective law schools? Or maybe we should select for judges who can recite the law by memory?

Judges need to represent the people that they stand in judgement of. You want people that know what it is like to grow up poor or to grow up under racism or whatever. And Black women are severely underrepresented in the federal judiciary.

Of course, any person selected as a judge needs to meet a minimum level of competence (something that has usually been the case up until at least a few selections from the last administration). Regardless, the solution set of Black female attorneys and judges is plenty large to be able to find fully qualified candidates for many, many federal appointments.

> One adjustment to the protocol that seems to me like a quick win (but presumably has some technical hitch I can't see, since I don't recall anyone suggesting this) would be to not include the post's body in the “block” (in the message itself that gets hashed and signed by the next message), but rather as a “blob” (essentially an attachment) which others don't need to download in order to verify the feed.

There's nothing to prevent you from taking this route, you just sign a blob hash instead of an entire message object.

I work on an experimental SSB-like-protocol in my spare time that does exactly what you've suggested: https://github.com/evbogue/bogbook

100 locations, so it appears it’s for new locations.

The bigger question is “Why?” and “How?”.

Gas is more cost efficient than electric. So the cost burden has to drop on somebody…likely the consumer.

Beyond that, most geographic locations aren’t producing “green” electricity to actually cut down on emissions as Chipotle is claiming.

To actually have them cut down on emissions, you essentially have to increase emissions - pulling out raw material, transportation, manufacturing, more transportation..etc.

It looks good in marketing, but until we are able to limit emissions in manufacturing and creating electricity, it’s all puff.

> Given that a monad is an interface for sequential computation, a much better name would be something like "Seq", "SeqComp", or something like that.

Just because you can look at something as describing a computation doesn't mean you always should. For example:

data BinaryTree x =
| Leaf x
| Node (BinaryTree x) (BinaryTree x)

instance Monad BinaryTree where

return :: a -> BinaryTree a
return x = Leaf x

bind :: (a -> BinaryTree b) -> BinaryTree a -> BinaryTree b
bind f (Leaf x) = f x // replace a leaf with the result of calling f on its label
bind f (Node l r) = Node (bind f l) (bind f r) // traverse down the tree, ultimately replacing all the leaf nodes with a new subtree

You can choose to interpret a binary tree as describing nondeterministic computation where you have two choices at every step, but I rarely do. Most of the time trees are just trees.
Yes, youtube makes money by people watching their stuff. They shouldn't discriminate then who (or how) they are watching it.
It's an interesting concept that generalizations can be true without applying to every case. For example, the statement "humans have one heart" is generally true, but there are exceptions where people have had an additional heart surgically added to assist a failing heart. Similarly, while it's common to say that humans have ten fingers, there are variations where some people are born with more or less, or have lost fingers due to accidents. Eye color is another example where we can't make a universal claim about humans. Although brown eyes are common, the number of people with blue or green eyes is significant enough that we can't say all humans have brown eyes.

So, when we say "humans have X," it doesn't mean every single human has X. Rather, it means that a significant enough number of humans have X for us to consider it a characteristic of our species.
Cooking on gas stoves is one of the few genuine, sensory pleasures many food-oriented people (myself included) have in life and it's really sad that there seems to be a concerted political effort to take it away.

I've used an induction stove for several months, had plenty of time to get used to it and it isn't pleasant to cook on.

That's a failing of your country's healthcare system, not an argument for automation. Getting to talk to a chatbot or whatever you have in mind is not a substitute for a real person, and will just introduce a norm of impersonal stereotyped healthcare if people are ignorant enough to believe it's a suitable substitute for getting seen by a real person.
Paul Theroux is also a very good fiction write. I recently read "The Mosquito Coast" and I was surprised how much I enjoyed it.
> That's ultimately related to DNA errors as well.

No it is not. Sure, you could try to frame everything as DNA errors, but at some point that just becomes so convoluted and out of touch with what's actually happening that it fails to be a useful model.

Wikipedia article you link also doesn't state that DNA errors are the _only_ cause of aging. Overall I would say that the article mostly represents the view from 15-20 years ago. That's ages in biochemical research times. I would in part ascribe that view to the fact that DNA sequencing was a hot research topic back then and for the first time became accessible to a wide audience of researchers. That hype cooled off a bit once it was recognized that mostly static snaphots of DNA only offer a limited picture of what happens in organisms, and research focus shifted more towards all the more dynamic processes in organisms (some of which are quite far removed from DNA interactions).

> As far as I know, this is the most widely accepted theory for aging.

As mentioned in a sibling comment, the "current" most widely accepted framework is the "hallmarks of aging"[0], where DNA errors and epigentic alterations (points accounted for in the DNA damage theory), cover only 2 out of 9 hallmarks. That paper is cited in basically every introduction of a paper that is tangentially related to longevity research and their mechanisms nowadays. The same authors also recently published an updated list of hallmarks[1], adding 3 new ones (also all non-DNA error related).

> It's Facebook verifying that Facebook's other server is providing you the right key

Again, no :-). The third-party audit record is there such that... well... a third-party server can do that verification.

For WhatsApp it may be marginal because the client is proprietary (hence you can't audit it and verify that it actually uses the feature), but the Signal client is open source. So you could actually see that your Signal client checks the keys using third-party servers. That's something, I think.
Australian place names often follow a slightly dysfunctional pattern IMHO; X Victoria, or Y New South Wales will 9 times out of 10 mean X is a suburb of Melbourne or Y is a suburb of Sydney. The same (albeit slightly weaker) pattern applies to Brisbane/Queensland, Perth/Western Australia, and Adelaide/South Australia. In my humble opinion they botched this, and they should have designed the system so that Coburg, Melbourne, Australia is the canonical form instead because it is much more informative (Coburg is a classic inner city suburb, a quick tram ride from the Melbourne CBD). The underlying reason for this is that the Australian population is usually clustered around the five largest cities in general, and the two largest cities in particular.

He was extremely unkind to coastal Britain in "the Kingdom by the Sea" -A book which I love and I will re-read, and frankly a lot of what he says about the un-endurable "greyness" of british sea-side towns in the post-industrial depression era is true.

Your mood has a strong effect on your health - stress is a huge source of deaths in the US (probably the largest by far but I have no studies to link). If a half a cup of ice cream significantly improves your mood and takes you out of depression then yea - it's probably pretty good. Please also be aware that if we're discussing the American diet there are plenty of folks who drink coke like water - ice cream has a pretty equal amount of sugar by volume of coke and the lack of excessive amounts of sodium means that there's less of a drive to over consume it.

Sweets eaten in reasonable quantities can be part of a healthy diet to maintain weight - though generally for weight loss you'll want to cut out as much sugar as you can or find better sources for it since our bodies are terrible at processing it.
