I've posted this before, but: Here's what to look out for.

A heart attack doesn't always look like a crushing pain in your chest. (It can - don't ignore it if that happens!) Sometimes it looks like "I used to be able to do that two weeks ago, and now I can't".

I play ultimate frisbee. At one point, I noticed that I was getting winded more easily, and taking longer to recover. Now, that happens as you get older, but it happens over the course of decades. When it happens in a month, that's not just aging.

So I went to a cardiologist, and they had me do a stress echo test. They did an ultrasound of my heart while resting, then put me on a treadmill and ran me until I dropped, then did another ultrasound. They said that there was "abnormal motion of my heart wall under stress". Translation: when the load got high enough, parts of the heart muscle weren't getting enough oxygen (blood) to keep up.

So they scheduled me for a catheterization (I forget whether that's the right term). They ran a catheter in my right wrist, threaded it through my arteries to the arteries that feed the heart, and went looking around. They found an artery that was blocked 90% and one that was blocked 80%, and they put stents in them. They found another that was blocked 60%, which is called the "widow maker", and they didn't put a stent there, because it was only 60% blocked. I found this kind of weird at the time, but after thinking about it, I suspect that if they put a stent there, then they can't later come back and put a stent at any point downstream of it, so the options would be to either do nothing or cut my chest open, and they'd rather leave their options open and monitor.

They put me on a heavy statin dose. (I'd been on statins for decades, but the cardiologist looked at my previous dose and said "that's like a placebo". There's doses that a GP thinks are useful, and there's doses that a cardiologist thinks are useful, and those are quite different.)

I get to have a stress echo every three years for the rest of my life. But I can still be as active as I was, with no restrictions or caution needed.

TL;DR: Watch out for an abrupt decline in your ability to sustain physical exertion. In order to see it, you need to regularly be physically active. If you do see it, take action now - don't wait for the crushing chest pain.
I think this was first used in EVE online but I could be wrong
Well you can consider eating healthy a hobby, it sure takes more than just quick visit to McDonald or any similar junkfood joint, and it costs more too so there is another skewed justification for why not do anything and have more miserable life.

I think you are not getting the point - being fit was the default since humans mutated from our predecessors, till very very recently. I mean I can't believe I have to explain this to anybody, especially here.

Also, you have incorrect world view on what it means 'being fit' that may be very effectively hindering your motivation to get better. Its definitely not about looks, if somebody is selling it as such they are doing a great disservice. Some people have genes that make their bodies look very different from ripped bodybuilders with 4% body fat, yet if they are very fit can achieve pretty amazing things.

Don't look for external validation, if you are happy in your own body (which being fit brings pretty much guaranteed, some mental disorders notwithstanding) then its all good and you can focus on other amazing things in life, while being happier, living better and longer and so on. Everything is connected.
Fish is the plural of fish. Sheep is the plural of sheep. Trousers is the plural of trousers. And math is the plural of math.
You're not wrong. It's also why this is an excellent argument for the private practice of religion. And taxing them if they want real estate and monetary income.
This would have been a pretty bad AI (animal invasion).
No, I suspect it's more the case that ChatGPT could generate it anno 2021, but can't anymore due changes in Chromium (I switched to Edge ultimately) and the Gmail API and Google Cloud Credentials workflow that I tried to add to it later.

It was interesting to see that ChatGPT annotated its code with pitfalls to avoid, that it actually didn't avoid in the code.
Axios falls into the media reporting on media reporting on media trope that I absolutely hate. Twitter is full of enough of that already.

The first thing I see when I land there today is "Scoop: How Trump's team egged him on during CNN town hall".

Honestly - who cares. How is it even a story? Water is wet.

I grew up reading a lot more business news because 1) a lot of time money is the tail that wags that dog and 2) it doesn't get caught up in these tropes as often.

Bloomberg differentiates a lot from the Borg collective in that regard.

Honestly the left probably needs a Murdoch style maniac to conglomerate left of center partisan media into one megacorp at this point before they all OEM themselves to death. Fox basically has the entire right of center mind share while the left of center battle for the same viewers by providing stunningly similar content.
That's my view, too. At one point I set all of my extensions to manual updates only. But that became cumbersome when I started enabling extensions by workspace, so I just use auto-update now. I appreciate the "what's new" notes, especially when I learn about new features.

Edited for clarity
> you'd need centralised control over pronunciation as well.

No, not at all. Several Italian words have regional variants, and they are simply spelled differently.

When you are used to a phonetic alphabet, you never wonder how to write what you say.
There is a reddit where people discuss technical details about nuclear weapons design, do simulations: /r/nuclearweapons

The funny thing is that 99% of public domain info regarding nuclear weapons design comes from US released documents.

For Russia/China warheads we basically have no documents, and even exterior pictures are extremely rare.
I recall when Yahoo and then IBM did this. It's all part of the downward spiral.

My impression is the m3 won’t be available until next year. Although I suspect it will be in the headset, since those things are going to need a lot of power

Performance per watt is the new Moore's law - though most users don't need more power, they do appreciate longer battery lives
I think the sauce is either Worcestershire Sauce, or Worcester Sauce, either is acceptable.

Worcestershire and Worcester follow the same patter as Gloucestershire/Gloucester, Leicestershire/Leicester and (Towcestershire doesn't exist)/Towcester. Towcester, incidentally, being the same pronunciation as "toaster".

The one that annoys me is Cirencester, which is usually "sai-ren-ses-ta", and only occasionally "sai-ren-ster".
Sorry for derailing this a bit, but I would really like to understand your view:
You are not concerned about any "rogue AI" scenario, right?

What makes you so confident in that?

1) Do you think that AI achieving superhuman cognitive abilities is unlikely/really far away?

2) Do you believe that cognitive superiority is not a threat in general, or specifically when not embodied?

3) Do you think we can trivially and indefinitely keep AI systems under control/"aligned"?

Because I view myself ABSOLUTELY not as some kind of AI luddite, but I honestly believe that this is one of the very few credible extinction threats that we face, and I'm counting NEITHER climate change nor nuclear war in that category, for reference.
You can add to it that many of the young people now rely on youtube and shorts for wisdom and learning, instead of having to talk to an older person.
Personally, I have no idea what makes a Canadian accent, and the only Australian one I can think of is over-exaggerated Steve Irwin. British accents on the other hand are pretty common in TV/movies.
DoJ and FTC have no jurisdiction in Taiwan. It would be WTO if anyone
Mostly these laws are scoped to the country one is living in. The problem is, say I decide to post a meme inciting violence in a different country or limiting a country's decision to join NATO (the quran burning in Sweden for example caused Turkish president Erdogan to block Sweden's NATO bid)... I don't have to face any charges or responsibility, despite potentially affecting the lives of millions of people.

Private healthcare is for-profit and directly incentivized by an unhealthy population.

Public healthcare is non-profit and directly incentivized by a healthy population.

Is this true? Because to my American eyes it has always seemed true.

The obesity epidemic seems like a good case study. Private health care looks to prescription drugs to fix it (subscription model) whereas public conceivably would push community awareness campaigns promoting exercise/diet (no profit stream).
Yes, you hear that a lot with teenagers in the UK, especially streamers, who dont even live in the US and havent been within a 3000 miles of it. Maybe we just like each others cultures so much?
My close(ish) confidants in my industry will be understanding; and those outside of my inner circle will be polite and cordial about it; but behind closed doors people will judge you, and use it against you.

Perhaps we simply run in different circles.

Optimization of time is definitely part of the convenience I meant. Especially when travelling to another place not in the 'downtown core'.
Gender is an individual's perception of (among other things) their sex. Sex is which chromosomes they have.

For most mammals, that's XX for females, XY for males, or any of the (rare) aneuplodic sex chromosomal abnormalities like Kleinfelter syndrome (XXY, e.g. male calico cats), or (rarely viable) chimeric individuals where two embryos fused in the womb. For some mammals (a few bat & rat species), most arachnids, and many insects that's XX for female and just a lone X for male, and any aneuplodic abnormalities of the sex chromosomes that aren't fatal result in an abnormal female. For birds, most reptiles, some insects, some fish, some crustaceans, and some plants, that's ZW for female & ZZ for male, with similar complications to the XY system.

Sex is pretty simple. The vast majority of the time for humans, it's either XX or XY.

Which (primary and secondary) sex organs someone has is more complicated, because that can be altered. But it's still pretty simple, if not always what one would expect from the chromosomal sex.

Gender is complicated, because it's entirely social. It's not entirely clear which animals even have gender.

Sexual attraction is also complicated. The factors which determine it aren't well understood.
I don't think this is the case. There are other semiconductor manufacturers, for example Samsung.
You’d target activities specific to a religion.

Can’t think of a great example here from a religious perspective.

But there’s an interesting new bill in Florida that cedes control of very specific railways to the Florida Department of Traffic which would only affect the Disney World monorail this is part of the Florida governors battle with Disney. You could probably find similar ways to target religious buildings, businesses and other activities.

>No, I suspect it's more the case that ChatGPT could generate it anno 2021

Why? I mean, why does it sound more plausible to you that it ever could, when we have countless examples of models lying (or rather hallucinating)?
A lot of British television is popular on streaming here, and there is very little Australian television.

Canadian accents are largely indistinguishable from the generic American "TV accent" aside from a few specific sounds and vocabulary choices. If you go into the Boonies of Canada you hear more distinctive ones, but those are more like regionalisms, you don't hear them as much in the media.
The average American would likely fail to identify all but the most exaggerated Canadian accent (adding "eh?" to the end of every sentence). That's why we're constantly shocked when Hollywood blockbuster actors are Canadian.
Okay, so I'm not tripping. This is just the first time I've had to think critically about the mid-2010s awkward bend that I think you describe well, "a uniform kind of sludge that seemed to intentionally blur the lines between several once disparate audiences." At the time, I never paid much attention to how stiff the competition was during this period and how much money was being shoveled into the media outlets in such a weird market.

Now I'm reminded of an associate who was afforded a job opportunity at Vice that was basically an invitation to shill junk food on Twitter. And Verizon owning Complex Magazine (which is now apparently owned by BuzzFeed...)

What an odd time. No wonder it fell apart.
Well, the nice thing about VSCode is you can disable all of that...

Did OpenAI just have its ‘App Store’ moment?
there is no replacement for keeping in touch with friends from far away and yes, remote parts of family, too - fb or insta. I don't go there much anymore because the endless promoted reels drive me insane, but i do miss that aspect of those services.
> affecting an accent has become a Gen Z verbal tic

Also other generations. For instance:

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valley_girl#Valleyspeak

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mid-Atlantic_accent

Novel sociolects aren't something that gen z has just invented; they show up from time to time.
That's fair enough. For me the difference is that if you don't like someone's clothes then you're still allowing them to wear them, but if you deny someone's gender or nationality which rely on outside recognition to feel real then you are actually limiting their expression of their self-perception.
Simpler and more executable than that, actually.
1) Basic premise of waste: People need to be told what to do, people wait to be told what to do.
2) Eliminate the waiting by standing up a value stream where everyone is part of the value stream team. Sections of the stream can be activated in a parallel fashion through autonomy of action.
3) Managers quit telling people what to do, and instead become value stream engineers - focusing on efficient flow of value like it's the company's inventory, from creation to delivery to the customer.
4) This move has different demands on remote work, but since it promotes autonomy of action, the more ham-fisted demands of legacy management are deprecated.
You start with a pinch of dyslexia and end with a bit of a lisp. Pretty straight forward when you imagine what it would sound like in a game of telephone between 10 5 year olds.
They carefully flood their tweets with likes from bot farms and once there’s a lot of inorganic activity it leads to a ton of visibility and therefore further organic activity
I'd imagine it would be WW3 and probably a civilization breaking event, would take a long time to recover from.
It's recognizable and easy enough to fake, at least to the degree that another American would recognize it as British English. Most people would not recognize a (say) New Zealand or South African accent, much less be able to replicate it.

It's also interesting that it's always a "posh" British accent: nobody ever fakes Cockney or Scouse or something.
I am not going to bet my life on it, but as per [0] the definition of the «[cash] reserve» is: «In financial accounting, reserve always has a credit balance and can refer to a part of shareholders' equity, a liability for estimated claims, or contra-asset for uncollectible accounts».

So it refers to a credit balance, and it does not mention investments.

Sure - there definitely are Zoomers in UK, but I doubt many of them would ever recognize Target or Walmart brands.
My father was instructed in no uncertain terms that if he wanted to get anywhere in the legal profession in the 1960s, he'd have to drop his Welsh accent. This was in Wales.
As a recently disaffected Mormon, let me tell outsiders a few reasons why I think this is a huge issue. I see some saying the church can do what it wants with it’s money, I want to explain why I don’t think it’s ok.

- members are encouraged to pay tithing before all other expenses. People are out there deciding whether to pay bills or tithing, while the church sits on this hoard. That’s hard to swallow.

- the church preaches against materialism. Any Mormon can tell you about the “great and spacious building.” It’s a story from the Book of Mormon about materialism or worldliness distracting you from finding the love of God. So what does the church do with tithing? They build an expensive shopping mall right next to their sacred temple and headquarters. What? I don’t have a problem with the mall on its own, but the irony is overwhelming.

- they own, or at least during the leak they owned, tons of stock in Facebook and other big tech. They’ve earned so much against the dangers of social media, it feels really hypocritical.

- they claim to be saving money for the Second Coming. I think this is nonsensical. There are two phases to the Second Coming, calamities/Armageddon, then Jesus comes to fix everything. You don’t need money for those. By all means, hoard emergency supplies, but what are you going to do with your Facebook stock when governments have collapsed?

- obviously, hiding behind shell companies. I expect this from businesses, not from the church who asks their members if they are “honest in their dealings with their fellow man” regularly.

- there are different ways to interpret the original revelation about tithing in the church. They have chosen the maximal version. In the Doctrine and Covenants, it says “one tenth of their interest annually.” Interest is not the same as income. It’s been alternatively interpreted as 10% of any investments, or 10% after all other expenses are paid. At one point a prophet also said that the law is only for those who have means to pay. The conveniently don’t use that quote anymore.

Anyways, this is all very fresh in my mind so these are my rantings.
You also have to learn how to communicate effectively in written/asynchronous formats. This is anathema to a lot of managers for some reason.

Couldn't that be said about search as well nowadays? and yet here we are.
I think part of the problem is the distributed nature of news sources. I don't want to have 20 separate subscriptions to different news sources to manage. I would pay for one site if I could get all my news there, but a single site a) can't cover everything and b) has its own biases.
The term for this is "code switching" and it's a fascinating area of study.

Its still generating tons of free cashflow, so there's still time and resources to pivot to something else, develop new businesses or just to pay it back to shareholders. Its relatively attractive now, especially with TikTok under intense scrutiny and facing bans in the West.
Apple's phone, tablet, laptop, and desktop products are computers. And they're making them faster, apparently. I would argue the phone is where the focus should be since that's the primary computer for many people around the world.
>* Additional living space required for WFH

I do about 95% of my work on my recliner with a laptop and a lap desk. No additional living space required. Occasionally I'll go in the computer room with the dual monitors when I feel I need them for something, but that's certainly not required.
I just have a really hard time believing there is a large group of individuals without ID when it is essentially mandatory for modern life as an adult. I also am having difficulty believing that the usually less than $25 fee for government issued ID is an obstacle to anyone.

Personally I think a verified voter ID should be both required (so as to prevent voter fraud) and provided freely to everyone.
