We should legally examine how it broke promises... In order to recruit users, these sites used to make wild promises, all those old videos and flyers are scraped off the Internet now, but I'm pretty sure many of them promised that Twitter should always be free and that the site would protect people's information... Things broken in many ways since people signed up.
The number in the title is misleading but what you write here is also misleading.

> The diffusion tensor images (DTI) @ 15 μm spatial resolution are 1,000 times the resolution of most preclinical rodent DTI/MRI. Superresolution track density images are 27,000 times that of typical preclinical DTI/MRI.

The resolution of the raw MRI images is significantly higher, without that increased resolution it would be impossible to align the light sheet images. The light sheet images are not use to "improve" MRI resolution.

The pull model works beautifully for background work queues. For load balancing it seems it would take a bit of re-plumbing on the expectations of request/response. How would you envision this working with something like HTTP? It seems it would reverse the direction, which would be interesting.

> “There's this phenomenon called homohysteria, which is the fear of being perceived as gay that I think really, really is destructive for men's friendships,” she says.

I see this claimed a lot (usually from women), but it doesn't seem true to me. It is true that men are less likely to form new friendships as adults than women, but I don't think it has anything to do with being perceived as gay in most cases. It has much more to do with the ways men and women socialize. Women also seem better at retaining friendships when they move, by calling and catching up with their old friends, while men tend to let old friendships die. Obviously these are generalizations and there are plenty of exceptions in both directions, but I think the basic pattern is true for the two groups as a whole.
The font situation is (in my opinion) fixed -- but this is more about the DE than Linux itself, so may depend on which DE you choose. And you haven't had to muck around in config files for a very long time (unless you're doing something exotic).

I'm suddenly imagining Microsoft abandoning the Windows kernel and switching to a full Linux kernel in the future.

At that point, Windows would just become another Linux distro. We could finally talk about it being the year of the Linux desktop without it being a meme.

On one hand, it could mean MS could lay off a TON of staff since they don't have to maintain their own kernel and can rely on open source. On the other, it would likely mean that software designed for Windows could now easily be run on any other Linux distro with little work. For many people (especially gamers), there'd be no reason to use Windows anymore.

It's a pipe dream, for sure. If it happened, wouldn't it require MS to open source Windows, especially if they made their own modifications to the Linux kernel?
The Pharo MOOC is great. It was my introduction Smalltalk-style OOP programming. The focus of the small project along the course is web development using Pharo, but I hope they eventually create a version geared towards data science using PolyMath and Roassal. Pharo reminds me of that famous William Gibson quote: "The future is already here—It’s just not very evenly distributed". See https://mooc.pharo.org/ and also https://books.pharo.org/
it's basically inevitable with how Southwest operates, they trade resiliency for efficiency. Same reason modern supply chains are so fragile, minimal redundancy anywhere. Tech seems to be one of the last places where people understand the value of resiliency, the way these companies run would be like not keeping database backups to save on storage costs. Or not having any excess capacity provisioned to handle traffic surges or hardware failures

This is incorrect - all of the protons align along the static (the strong 1.5, 3 , 9.4 etc Tesla) field, some point one way, and some the other - but they have all shifted so that they line up. The excite portion is a separate step, distinct from the static (B0) field. edit: distinct in some ways - the strength of the static field determines the RF used to flip the protons out of alignment.

I'm not sure what you're saying here, but what we're seeing now is just consequences of 50 years of global inaction. You want to blame someone, blame the people who have been in charge for the past two generations, not people today.
It’s funny for what is essentially a ‘file manager’ Microsoft makes it hell to manage your files. My friends and family and constantly confused by the 10 different interfaces there are for file management. Desktops are
a mess of of half trash files. The cloud integration the file explorer is a confusing mess. The UI for saving a file from Office is the absolute worst. I’ve had to help someone just save a file and it was difficult even for me to figure out the UI — borderline comical how bad it is.

So as far as I can tell the only way a user can access this type of info on windows is via procmon. Problem is its just a gui application, no programatic access afaik. I did find a project where someone reverse engineered it to some extent and it allowed you to make calls to it programatically. Anyway, it turned out there was a loooot of heavy lifting that'd be required to get it to behave the way I needed it.

Anywho, I'm happy for the info on linux. I was looking for a project that would require me to up my bash skills anyway. This sounds perfect

And notice how "Yes" is permanent. Once you "agree," you can never go back without starting all over again, if even then.

This is why there are no more "No" selections. The developers--from marketing to the people who ask ChatGPT to spit out the required Python code and then paste it into a GitHub repository--all have financial motivations for you to say "Yes".
Is that correct? If I am taking a company public, or some other activity that falls under their purview, can I not ask the SEC to provide guidance on the appropriate measures to take?

Yes, of course, a lawyer can provide that. But surely, the SEC should be able to provide advice or point to resources on how to be compliant if needed?

If not, I'm really surprised.
The same is true for other things you amortize and those maintenance costs are opex. If you don't change the oil, filters, spark plugs, etc. on your delivery trucks, they will break down before the end of their service life. Stale is not the same thing as useless. You might get bored by a game, or find the interface "old", but in enterprise environments, 10 year old software is very common. Heck, 90% of your transactions run on a platform first developed in the early 1960's.

The 5 year is arbitrary. Arguably, software doesn't really break or wear out, so the service life is arbitrary. (That's not to say that the OS it's running on doesn't break it during an update). 5 years matches the life of the capitalized equipment on which it runs. I don't have any insight as to the debate around 5 years, but my guess is computers are a 5 year asset.

My guess is the rules apply from other assets, where fixes to bugs and minor updates are opex as maintenance costs. If you make a major change that extends the life of the asset, such as remastering a game or refreshing the UI, or adding a feature, might be capitalized. This would be like adding a lift to a delivery truck or replacing the engine to extend its life.

Huge amount of monocultures are not the sign of a healthy environment, but one that is at the precipice of collapse.

This behavior is seen in animal populations quite often. A series of 'good' events happen allowing the population to expand beyond the mean population capacity. If the good times are excessively long or excessively good you can see a rapid overshoot in total population. When this occurs the population is screwed. Even if 'bad' times do not come just reducing resources to what the mean population can support means that a large dying off will occur, that die off will typically kill almost all the population of said animal because of consumption of almost all available food. You then get a drastic reduction in total population far below the mean carrying capacity. If the environment switches from 'good' times, say high water availability into extreme extended drought you can get species extinction.

> it took this many years for an article?

It took this many years for CDTFA audit to be started, completed, and the city to be told it needs to end the program, which is what the article is ultimately about.

Given the total amount identified and the per-year current amount, the amount seems likely to have been small potatoes for most of the life of the program. In 1998, a lot more of the business was brick and mortar, and it was before even the iPod, much less the iPhone, was introduced.
putting aside that 12% is still a fair bit, I wonder how much value it brings them in more intangible ways, that would only become obvious if they "lost" windows.
I prefer to treat my ISP-supplied equipment as foreign territory, so their modem is in passthrough mode on purpose. Its only client is my own standalone firewall, since I have its Wi-Fi turned off.

As long as I'm not messing with the network, it's all great, and I know where to start looking if there is odd traffic going on.
Yeah, I'm in the same boat. I'm kinda confused about things like SSH and Funnel being moved to the Premium tier.

It feels a little odd that the Free tier lets you use Premium features indefinitely, but as soon as you get more colleagues onboard, you lose those features.

Unless you're looking carefully at the pricing page, you'd miss that Starter has many fewer features compared to Free.

I think there'd be significant overlap with the folks that setup Windows 11 without a Microsoft Account and those that use tools like Open-Shell to rid themselves of some of these start menu "enhancements".

Because breaking the law does not cause your stock to be delisted?

I'm not informed enough of the SEC complaint to have much of an opinion on how valid the SEC's or Coinbase's respective cases are, but "I can still by stock" is no evidence that Coinbase isn't breaking the law or violating regulations. Companies do illegal things all the time, delisting the stock and shuttering the company is a resolution of last resort, not first resort.
I recently installed Windows 10 in a VM to port a program to Windows (Was a horror story). On the left side in the start menu I have ads and other crap: "Trending searches", "Trending videos from the web", "Games for you", "Trending news" and some other stuff like a reminder for the International day for Monuments and Sites.

On the right side I have a weather/news widget from some really shady or local newspapers about "celebrities", a lot of clickbait, stock data etc.

And obviously the first time I opened Edge I was greeted with some annoying banner, that I should login etc.

A default installation of an OS should only come with the bare amount of software necessary. If they had asked: "Do you want to have news/recommendations? - Yes/No,never ask again" it would be really okay as there was no forced consent, but installing it by default is simply a bad decision. (From a users' perspective, it probably makes sense from a corporate perspective as otherwise they wouldn't do it)
And most distributions have the permissions structure of, well, 1980's Unix.

I know it's being worked on, but it's a little crazy to think that on most Linux systems you still don't get a permissions popup when your calculator app wants to turn on your microphone. You can't grant access to your contacts or email on an app-by-app basis.

I say most because it has been largely solved on Android, for example.
That's how security stuff intrinsically works. It sits in the critical path and fails closed. If it failed open, then it would be "malware installed on Southwest's production network due to unpatched node.js module" or something.

Would love to have this as a personal thing. Any amount of institutional attention would be scary though. The tech has come a long way since 2007, records like this should be easy to search and filter. Something like Roam.

The dream is building up a "life corpus" that can be analyzed later for trends, and balances cost (gathering/storing too much raw data) vs being future-proofed against new ways of looking at it. Think of social moneyball - which friends bat above replacement?

If I was going to get started with it, I would go for a hidden microphone, always on, auto-transcribed with location data. Think the (il)legality comes out in the wash if you aren't using the data for anything official.

What is it about theoretical physics that makes people on the internet (with zero understanding of the context) feel entitled to snarkily attack results such as this?

The research in the article is about as innocuous as it gets — uncovering another possible way to get a handle on the math of quantum field theories. It’s not like millions of dollars went into the research (just the modest salaries of the four theorists). No major applications as yet — the Quanta title “…shaking up physics” is certainly not true. But it’s another stone in the edifice of science.

And my god when you see the esoterica in some (most?) other academic fields, the unrelenting complaints about the solipsism of physics seem totally misdirected. When an upper bound on some complicated measure on the distribution of prime numbers is lowered, no chorus of jackals assembles on the internet to mock the proof for its lack of real world relevance. The other day I spoke with a classics professor whose primary research was on a possible alternative interpretation of one line in a Latin poem. I found it interesting and worthwhile, but wow another level of remove from the so-called real world of engineering application and commerce.

Also, to be clear, whether or not mathematical physics work winds up elucidating experiments, it is still correct and “useful” math. It’s not for nothing that the math community gave Edward Witten a Fields medal.
In the hospital where I went a few times, they show a relaxing video while the MRI is taken. You look at a projection via a tilted mirror close to your eyes. Once it was featuring pandas, it is really nice to experience the panda effect inside the machine. I've never been anxious about the scan.

Because "we can just capture carbon from the air" is a narrative that makes it sound like we don't have to sacrifice any part of our lifestyle to accomplish the goal of mitigating climate change. It's propaganda, pure and simple.
The quote: "If you give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest of men, I will find something in them which will hang him." turns out to be apocryphal according to the history stack exchange [1]. However, the quote is as true now as it was when we thought Richelieu said it.

The author sounds pessimistic though. I think the the natural customer for a LifeLog apparatus today is someone who is just trying to get by in a crazy world, has a job managing processes, has nothing to hide, and who can forgive flawed individuals for getting swept up in events, or take a few knocks when the forces of history get out of hand, then be ready to carry on when the dust settles.

There was an adage about how 20th century history could be described by how one-third of people could be relied upon to do nothing while another third attempted to exterminate a remaining third, and I think that middle group history relies upon will be the early adopters for convenient personal monitoring technologies like this.

At the end of the day, some of the people being monitored by a LifeLog really are bad, and who couldn't be against something bad, except maybe bad people? Being against something bad costs nothing and you'd have to make an effort not to be. Bottom line is, you just have to leave the complicated stuff to the people who live it every day and have the background for it, and why rock the boat, it's bad, what are you going to do, defend it? It's just how the cookie crumbles, and net-net we get chevre and sundried tomato omlettes from broken eggs.

It's not that they are against one side or the other, it's that they don't believe anything strongly enough to get involved, so they just go along. Maybe they get a job that uses their attention to detail, like organizing information, or scheduling trains.
