Target has different prices for shipping based on your selected store! This despite shipping from a warehouse, not the store. It would surprise me if the WalMart instore prices don't vary by location (I have not checked).

>once their function is in Houston, why not Honduras?

I agree, and it's something that I'd like to get ahead of if it's the world we're approaching.

In a world where high-skill-non-managerial jobs can be outsourced easier, wages will become depressed. Would you rather take what you have saved and try to get something in Houston now, or watch from New York as your income stagnates but your expenses grow with inflation?

Nobody knows the future, and remote work could very easily be phased out. Or we lean in and US companies draw from a pool of tens of millions of talented international software engineers.

It's a hell of a situation.

EDIT: lots of tweaks here and there.
A lot of back pain actually comes from tight hip flexors, quads, and glutes. Everything is connected and if you have a desk job, these things can get tight. This leads, counter-intuitively, to pain experienced in the lower back.

Every single game jurisdiction that has confirmed cases of CWD or confirmed cases of CWD nearby has instituted baiting/feeding bans.

Agreed but it is not banned in my area. The game warden does discourage it for the reasons you mentioned but the real undocumented reason is they don't want the obligation of paying for running a deer/elk food pantries. They do have a few of them for the elk. There are about 100 elk not far from me that they feed whereas I only have two elk on my property. I create N+2 piles of food to minimize saliva swapping but they do still move each other around at the start of winter. After a couple of weeks they stop swapping and fighting and the ones that have been here before don't even start with the swapping.

The plants you mention do not grow here in the winter outside of a greenhouse. People here that can afford to do so feed them pellets. On the other side of my county all the deer are dying because nobody is feeding them.

Never feed corn to deer, especially during the winter. It will give them diarrhea and dehydrate them. If you see someone feeding them corn try to get them to stop and use nutrient dense pellets and occasionally some oats to assist their digestion.
I discovered ZMQ after his death. Reading his last posts were perspective-shifting. I genuinely felt sad, both for him as an individual, and because many of his best works are not going to survive much longer than he did. Life is short and our impacts are transient.

The Year We Lost It
I haven’t used airplane, but it looks like a more dev oriented retool, which is an awesome idea.

We’re building evidence specifically for producing reporting suites, automated analysis and other data products. As a result, we’re keenly focused on data analysts, not developers per se (although lots of engineers have chosen to use evidence as well).

We offer features focused on that use case and user group. SQL oriented workflow. A large and growing charting library, templates pages, a static build process so your reports are really fast, docs on using it with dbt, those types of things. We have a lot more “best of BI” features to come.

All of that said, I have seen people build really valuable data products with retool, so I am sure you could with airplane as well, but it’s definitely aimed at a much more general developer audience and “internal tool” use case.
Clearly, they should ask ChatGPT 4 for a ruling :)

AC3D[0] is a 3D mesh editor that uses Tcl/Tk for the UI with the core functionality being in C. The "ttk" subset of controls is themable and AC3D has its own theme[1] which, at least to me, it doesn't look that different from the themes of other 3D software. Though it also allows you to edit and create your own themes and personally i made this[2] which i like better (though i think the people who belong in that "majority of users" group you imagine are more likely to elicit that "Ew, yuk." from my theme :-P).

> Would you rather take what you have saved and try to get something in Houston now, or watch from New York as your income falls but your expenses stay flat?

Depends on if you’re learning and growing or coasting. Truth be told, I’m presently the latter, which is partly why I moved to Wyoming. That is not an option if you’re starting out. And it won’t be when I shift back into first gear.
You’re right. Like most failures of this type, it’s rarely simple and these forums are super conducive to long-form discussion. They did checks, but they were inadequate.

Regarding knowing if you have a poor process or not, it depends on the uniqueness of your problem. For proteins that are relatively common, like material checks, you can shorten your learning process by looking at other organizations that have been through it for decades. For more exotic non-standard problems, you might have to learn the hard way.
They are not overpopulated here. The weather has been killing them off in droves. They are not pests here at all. There are natural predators here but we try to keep their numbers down. The biggest predator this year has been the snow, ice and wind. The pests here are coyotes and yellow bellied marmots. The bigger predators stay further up the mountains unless there is a drought.
A Logical Way to Split Long Lines: The Rectangle Method
To be clear, not defending one "side" or the other, just pulling a thread on the "without any politicized hysterics" line.

Not sure how old you are, but look up "hanging Chad". Gore didn't come out and say the 2000 election was stolen, but that was definitely part of the Zeitgeist on the left, and it did get pretty hysterical. Not to the level of 2020, but it was a level you only read about in history books

Also, don't forget 2016 where Russian infiltration was the only acceptable explanation for why Trump won and not that half the population genuinely hated what the Democrats had to offer and were desperate for anyone different than the status quo in the aftermath of the uneven GFC recovery. There were definitely political hysterics then. Only difference between 2016 and 2020 was that the losing candidate didn't openly push the theory as forcefully in the aftermath of defeat.

Luckily Obama won both his terms handily, otherwise similar controversies in 2008 and 2012 would have been likely.

Smaller side model that just prints the "umm sorry I can't do that" message. And they did retrain it at least once - that's why it got so much faster and why the model chooser has "default" and "legacy" GPT-3.5.

I guess I should also mention that you can request coverage in your area via the 'Request Coverage' button.

I object to the term "going rogue" here, as it implies the robots are doing something wrong.

Would you say that humans are "going rogue" when they try to eradicate a virus like Smallpox or polio, or eliminate disease-carrying mosquitoes?

From an advanced AI's perspective, eradicating the humans isn't a bad thing.
The deterrence element of punishment is often overstated. Punishment is a really poor behavioral modifier. For punishment to reliably modify behavior, it has to be immediate and consistent. The criminal justice system is neither. It is not only behavioral scientists that are aware of the flaws, criminologists also look at the data, and there seems to be no indication that the severity of the punishment is negatively correlated with the frequency of the crime, neither across time, nor between jurisdictions with different penal code.

What criminologists have found however is that racial minorities are often given the harsher punishment when available (the reason WA deemed the death penalty unconstitutional back in 2018; and they had the data to back it up). So the deterrence value seems to be primarily used to discriminate against minorities, not to reduce crime rate.

I was a bit tongue in cheek and playing off the previous comment using the phrase "conspiracy theory".

Sure, that's the problem with cancer. But to get there first, your immune repertoire has become less diverse and developed some holes due to infections, dysbiosis, aging, etc.
People repeating this take in the face of so much overwhelming evidence to the contrary look so ridiculous that at this point, you just have to laugh at them. Yeah, sure, it's not reasoning. That hour-long exchange I just had with it, where it helped me trouble-shoot my totally bespoke DB migration problems step by step, coming up with potential hypotheses, ways of confirming or disconfirming theories, interacting in real time as I gave it new constraints until we collaboratively arrived at a solution -- that was definitely not "reasoning." Why isn't it reasoning? No explanation is ever given. I'm waiting for the moment when someone tells me that it's not "true reasoning" unless it's produced in the Reasoning region of France.
Finger prick measurements are still the gold standard in terms of accuracy. The method in this paper is still in its early stages, but it's already showing promising results. Compared to CGM, it's significantly cheaper and more accessible.

Yeah. The frameworks solve the 80 percent problem quite well but once you start trying to be as specific as the business often wants, I would find them lacking and end up popping JSON to d3 (or some such)
Exactly: once we have a Moon base, it won't be hard to send technicians to the dark side to repair the radio telescope there.

Your entire conception of laws is nonsense.

If laws are based solely on force, then that's the end of it and whoever has the most force at a given time makes the laws.

You can't just say "that person happened to have the most force at that exact moment, so whatever they did is fine and they can't be touched even by someone who now has more force".

By your logic, the Nazis should not have punished for the Holocaust because they made some laws that allowed them to do it first. They murdered 10+ million people, but executing a couple dozen people who orchestrated it is beyond the pale because they passed some laws to say it was okay first.
Anyone have an idea which one is more power efficient? Is there a tool that could help make that determination ?
I am not a lawyer, but... realistically sentiment has been moving away from the death penalty in Washington State since the 1990s such that even someone like Ridgeway was unlikely to be executed. I don't recall the last execution (I think I was a teen...) but even in those last few the appeals went on for years.

The other problem people seem to forget is radiation. The Van Allen belts expose people to a lot of radiation; normally it's not a problem, because either people stay under the belts (as in stations like the ISS which are at LEO), or for the few times humans went beyond LEO, to the Moon, they blasted through the belts very quickly and thus had negligible cumulative radiation exposure. But if you're sitting on a space elevator taking days to go through the VA belts, you'll probably get a fatal dose.

Wikipedia has an article that touches on this here:

> What do you mean by 'cost of influence'? If I don't want influence, is it optional?

Every political system has patrician and plebeian tracks. In America, the former can be bought (versus solely inherited). Being a politically-active patrician in New York involves an expensive list of patronage. That’s where the power players are, and that’s where you’ll cut casual deals.

It’s optional. And it’s different from civic responsibility. But unless you think the status quo is hunky dory, you’re going to want to change things, and the cost of access varies geographically.
Maybe. [1] I have several Protease in capsule form and consume them daily. I would imagine that would have to be made into a paste to work on the boots.

Honestly I think bleach is fine. There is nothing inherently special about prions. They are just proteins and bleach will rapidly disassemble and denature proteins of any kind out of their 3D structure, some slower than others. I leave it on over night and with heat applied.

You missed the point. Were you over-caffeinated or something?

I was using an example of saying someone is a "murderer" as free speech. Many people have called GWB a murderer and they are allowed to - because of freedom of speech.

Why would calling someone a pedophile vs a murder not be covered by the same freedom? Why am I engaging with you? Don't answer that, this is pointless.
Another point, this person has what to me is inverted priorities: they say give more notice to a bigger company than a small one. If you are leaving a company, the impact of missing an employee is inversely proportional to the size of the company.

If you quit a company, which company will find the missing employee harder: the one with 10 thousand employees, or the one with 10? Who will be more impacted by losing and engineer or artist, EA or some indie gamedev?

I advise anyone making $300k to give half of it to me. Then you will end up at $150k, which is $50k ahead of where you started.
Then I won’t bother with your citation that says if you add infinite memory you can achieve infinite states :)
When you sign commits, the signature includes the parent commit. So it includes the version, and you can use it to verify something before publishing. This way the API keys could be included in CI much more safely.

You would need to make it so that there's a setting in an account so an API key is useless to publish without a signed commit.

It's simple, open, and works well.

Edit: if you can't publish the same version twice it enables someone with a stolen API key to publish something after it's bumped but before the CI runs. That's a far fetched scenario.

Regarding the foam, they had a difficult time even recreating it after the fact. It was apparently only on a lark that they decided to turn the gun up to 11 and, viola, now the foam had the physical properties capable of damaging the tile catastrophically. So, yes, they knew the mechanism of foam shedding but did not realize the effect properly.

With the o-rings, they similarly just didn’t have the test data for this conditions. They incorrectly extrapolated on the test data they did have.
