Yeah, this idea that you can transplant another person's tooth without rejection is very interesting. The mouth is pretty special in terms of its ability to heal, so you can half-believe it, but I'm skeptical. I'd also love to see a source.

(Edit: The history section of your Wikipedia link [1] is interesting.)
I don’t mind the slow burn at all! I however did not like being forced to do frustrating platforming / movements while having to start from scratch every time I run out of time or die.
It seems incorrect to state that his perspective is categorically incorrect. The term “structure” lacks a precise definition and his interpretation isn’t completely invalid.
> It's only around 2003 but its management hit upon the idea of having a premium enterprise distribution, and making the only way to obtain it being to buy commercial support for it. That was a stroke of genius, and over the last 20 years, it's made the company very rich indeed — in stark contrast to its first decade.

Their enterprise support started around RH6, which was in 1999 and grew from there. It eventually morphed into RHEL because of the enterprise success, but didn't start with it.
Canberra, Australia (the capital) also has banned outdoor advertising since the 1930s (except near the airport): https://www.abc.net.au/canberra/programs/breakfast/should-ad...
The billboard.

Jokes aside, my guess is the missing word is "hate".
I had the same reaction. Particularly on every commit being independent. Seems like a lot of work that will mostly be wasted.

I guess if your work approach is exceptionally chaotic, it makes sense. But I don’t think I would ever have the time to be as chaotic as the author seems indicate they are.
Very soon Microsoft will acquire Canonical for at least $40 billion. The reasons:

* Ubuntu powers the overwhelming majority of Azure workloads (both customer and internal)

* Nearly all Linux applications and tooling target Ubuntu first (or at the very least)

* Github, VSCode. The missing piece is the actual runtime operating system. Ubuntu.

* Canonical employs nearly all the remaining core enterprise open-source developers after IBM acquired Red Hat

Start the countdown to Microsoft Ubuntu.
I thoroughly enjoyed FTL and Into the Breach.

Another I thoroughly enjoyed was Jupiter Hell, which seems to be a fast paced game, but is actually a very thought provoking, turn based game.
This makes sense. The few times I’ve tried to help someone with Android, I had to go very slowly through every single step. The two look pretty similar from afar but are quite different. I can still make my way around Windows because I’ve used it before.

My 70-80+ year old parents can use iOS abd ipados mostly fine but get lots of things wrong on their Mac, so it seems to be a net improvement.
Indeed it is. We try to.
> That's some major scapegoating of flight crew, when their airline clearly has not maintained the plane properly and caused engine failure in the first place and airport failed to provide adequate ground control support.

Most disasters result from multiple things going wrong together, hence the importance of addressing them individually.

I've never heard most, but I think back the population of earth was only about 6 billion there were people claiming that about 1/5 of people who have ever lived are alive right now.

I've read that at the smallest bottleneck our species had fewer than 10,000 individuals, although I don't think that sad state lasted long.
It seems like with the current fire around AI, that making a worm or fly brain function in a simulated environment would be a hot bed of research. I wonder if the research is hot, but private, like at OpenAI, or Neuralink.

I've switched back to windows as of about six months ago specifically because most of my games didn't work on Mint.

Was that the wrong distro, or has it really come that far in that short amount of time?
I started my PhD last year and was interested in working with this PI in his lab. My bad maybe but I never contacted anyone in his lab about their experience.

When I got here I realized the members of the lab are almost all petite white women. A common reason why they’re doing their PhD in this lab? The PI saw something in them and thought they were special when they were undergraduates.

To top it off, most of them are doing projects predetermined by the PI for their dissertation.

Goes without saying, I intend to work with another professor but still very disheartening to see.
For some reason that reminded me of a Futurama joke, although I'm not sure why since it is completely different.

LEELA: Fry, night lasts two weeks on the moon.

MOON FARMER: Yup. Drops down to -173.

FRY: Fahrenheit or Celsius?

MOON FARMER: First one, then the other.
Indeed. For me, my PhD was eye-opening in that it was the first opportunity to work the way I wanted to work, and realizing how much more productive I could be that way.
> If you make what you want, you at least have one user

This is it.

This is how I approach in writing software.

99.9% of the stuff I write is going to have one user. But it's one more than zero, and in the 0.1% of the cases where it does have >1 users, well, I call that a success.

I don’t know if this is the case, but I’ve noticed questionable news outlets reposting their own old articles, possibly to game google news search or something
I'm implying it somewhat, since if you're "looking for ownership, interest in our customers/mission/long-term" and getting involved in what you see as "career-defining creations", then that's a relationship with a job that requires a candidate to buy into what you're doing to the point where they'd be upset to be rejected from the opportunity. I'm not trying to say you're deluding them or anything, but that the level of commitment you're asking for out of candidates before they've even started with you is such where it's a harder rejection than just "it's on to another job."

What I'm trying to say is that expecting the candidates to do the work to sell themselves on your vision and importance and viability feels like both a large burden on them and something that's setting even those dedicated enough to do it up for likely heartbreak.

Like you say, this is two-sided. Loading up the free version of your offering is more work than most interviewers are putting into a candidate. I could see it being very fair and very interesting to have a section of an interview where I sat with one of the company's developers or product folks and played around with the product to learn and talk about it - that seems like it would be a good signal both ways.

Otherwise, it just feels like you're asking candidates to put in far more time and personal effort deciding to care about them than you're likely putting in to learn and care about them outside of the interviews. That's always the case with interviews, but this additional layer just feels like an unnecessarily interviewee-unfriendly level on top. If it's working for you, then that's good for you, but consider the sorts of candidates that could be a good fit but don't have the time after work to spend even more time becoming invested in your company and a vision.
Vanced still works great for me, it can be found on various APK download sites.

I'm sure it has a rapidly approaching expiry date, however.
They're slowly ruining the vibe. Several stations raised the intensity of the lighting, painted the cement coffers, changed the warning lights from yellow to red, and some have even replaced the iconic floor tiles. The new trains in general are a travesty, too. The old ones had a warm 70s color scheme, warm lighting, and carpet that absorbed some of the track noise. The new ones are steel on the outside, white and blue on the inside, with cool lighting that clashes with the stations and hard surface floors that don't dampen noise at all (to say nothing of the redesigned seating, made uncomfortable to deal with a non-existent homeless rider situation). Oh, also, the first set of them were duds with major issues.

Walking into Metro stations and onto the trains used to be a calming experience, stepping out of the stress of the city or suburbs into a chill and welcoming atmosphere. Now, I can feel my blood pressure jump.

Yes, and the question I am asking is how much better are they doing than competition there. For compute density, the real cloud racks are pushing 30-40kW per rack so even if they were 20% and oxide 0%, they don't seem to have a compute density advantage there.

I have only written two blogs. One of them is on rust other on my frustrations with TDD. TDD one is more of a joke. I don't think it'll be of much interest to others. But I guess no harm in putting it out.
It actually isn’t, but it’s a firm with similar name recognition.
Sure, but discipline doesn't start with click bait blog posts and controversial list of what the author think should be standard.
> The news will never teach you how to think. It will tell you what to think.

Oh I disagree with this...presumably you notice lots of people have the same "facts" based on what's in the news, but have you not noticed that the "logical reasoning" that accompanies these "facts" is also quite similar, and typically not very logical?

Conda is probably ok too. If you are in a data science ecosystem, go with Conda and you will be fine.

This assume string theory is true. As of now, there are no proof that string theory is true or even to disprove it. In fact entire "theory" is not even provable making it label as "theory" very questionable. String theory at this stage is like Madoff Securities in 90s. Everyone assume it was legit. As long as it kept churning out dividend payout, it is good. But underlying they never ever have to be audited. They never even have to invest anything. As long as "string scientists" keep writing some fanfic things like this parallel world, it is good and legit. The math is so convoluted they kept inventing new particles called supersymmetries. As of today NOT A SINGLE of those particles found after decades. And we got Higgs proven already via the Std Model. At this point many it is as good as treating "string theory" as "alternative science" and fovus on more provable physics stuff so as a whole of humanity we able to better use our resources to advance our understanding of the universe instead of keeping the tenure job of these stringists in their respective physics department. Dont make it as a bitcoin energy sucking in physics world.

The default selection also uses the most transparently sexualized thumbnails with BOOBS! just begging me to click. Admittedly, I sometimes do - not for the boobs, but for the comments which inevitably make jokes about the boobs in the thumbnail.
> But finally, I’d like to argue that following the news isn’t just a waste of time, it’s actively unhealthy. Edward Tufte notes that when he used to read the New York Times in the morning, it scrambled his brain with so many different topics that he couldn’t get any real intellectual work done the rest of the day.

We've come a long way since 2006.
I made it clear from the start that a) this was a partial recollection b) it was entirely possible that it hadn't got to the point of physically attempting to issue a certificate. It was definitely a topic that was dicussed on KF, and a part that I do remember clearly is that LE's terms permit them to choose to refuse service to entities based on the content of what those entities are serving. And it's very obvious that it would be technically possible for them to do so, contrary to what you ("baselessly and incorrectly", if we're going there) suggested in your last reply.

If LE wanted to make a clear committment to content-neutral operation it could do so. It has taken a different tack in its ToS, even if it hasn't been pushed to the point of applying that in practice yet.
Personally, I look at prompt engineering the same way I see "software engineering" and think it's a bit of a mockery of the trend.

Other industries have proper certifications for "engineering" that I.T. absolutely doesn't, yet someone who figured out how to center a div calls themselves a software engineer.

https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2015/11/progr... <- related article.

I reckon if you're going to give devs the right to call themselves engineers just because they write code to solve business problems, you don't have much of a leg to stand to judge people whom write natural language into a software solution, and receive output that solves business problems.
Better than being allowed no kids like the GP mentioned.
I live near a large interstate and the noise produced by it is loud enough that the state has approved a sound barrier to be built. Naturally it will be made out of wood or, if I’m lucky, stone. When the project was announced I couldn’t help fantasizing about some sci-fi membrane barrier type thing that would perfectly cancel noise just like a force field cancels force. To read this article gives me hope that I’m going to live long enough to see such cool tech.

I didn't miss your point then. You've unfairly summarized one app as a thirst trap in spite of it's myriad other users, while underplaying the role of porn on another. Twitter is an app for thought in the same way Instagram is an app for photography. They both have cohorts of cheap thrill users and users who are being more thoughtful.
WeChat is so much more than just a messaging app. This is a common misconception when comparing WeChat and Whatsapp. The functionality of those two is not even remotely comparable.
To be frank many people don't remember phone numbers these days, and just enter them into their phone-books to use. I know as a kid decades ago it took me a while to learn my home phone number. Sure a refresher index card could be used but that just isn't the norm.

RSSv3 showed warming, it's there on the graph.

RSSv4 corrected against ground data (calibration) and normalised for time drift and incident angle also showed warming .. more warming as prior post processing results had an incorrect transfer function.

As a point of order, their raw historic data has not been altered - instruments rarely directly produce values of interest, they must be calibrated against other sources to provide a transfer function between raw instrument product and final values of interest.

Bimetallic strips don't measure "tempreture" - they show the expansion of metals in tension.

They must be calibrated to show a "tempreture" relative to amount of bend.

Traditional aircraft altimeters don't directly measure height above ground, they are aneroid barometers that reflect the atmospheric pressure from a static port outside the aircraft. Calibration and barometric pressure on the ground are required to form a transfer function for height.
“Dr. Richard Pemberton, a lecturer in Mechanical and Marine Engineering Design at the University of Plymouth, in the UK, believes that “there’s an absolutely no question that it’s technically possible” for the technology to work.”

I believe that Dr. Pemberton is correct: wind-powered sailing technology was invented around 3500 BC. [0]

> Docker / kubernetes is eating it up

Is LXD's purpose the same as Docker/Kubernetes? I use both LXD and Docker and to me they are tools that use the same technology (containerzation) but for different purposes. Docker is for stateless containers, used to containerize services. LXD is for stateful containers, used to containerize operating systems. LXD can also run VMs while Docker can't.

I think about LXD as a sort of Proxmox alternative (because you can manage LXC containers and VMs with it) instead of a Docker/Kubernetes alternative. In fact, I actually have migrated my systems from Proxmox to Ubuntu Server with Docker, for stateless applications, and LXD, for when I need to containerize an entire OS or VMs for my friends.

That’s what I’m doing in addition to a PhD. Even then, if my idea is really good, I know I’ll have to fight copyright trolls, or imitators, and the like. Life is a challenge man. All I want is to help people and make an impact but I find you need to be f-ing resilient.
Unless Microsoft has an Activision-sized amount of cash burning a hole in its pocket, that feels unlikely. Seems far easier/likelier to make a Microsoft branded Debian than to go all-in-on Ubuntu. Maybe I could take the aqui-hire angle, but how many Ubuntu devs would want to stay with Microsoft?
For perspective, this was written by an extremely precocious 16 year old. And I think for most people, the front page of the New York Times may indeed contain nothing of practical use. You're effectively paying for general up-to-date worldly knowledge and social currency.

Nevertheless, at some point in your life, knowing current events, even remote ones, and knowing how events have unfolded in the past, has great practical value in making decisions about personal actions or decisions which affect many people, or financial decisions.
Maintenance, Maintenance, Maintenance! Many things bother me about this avoidable crash, but maintenance is the worst. Engine rotor blades have to be x-rayed for cracks and corrosion on a semi-regular basis. The company must be held responsible, just imagine the loss of live if this would have happened over landed areas.

Also, the gauges tell the story, the captain should have verified what the 1st officer told him, especially with an engine failure. Thankfully, both survived.
https://andlukyane.com/blog/ I write about Data Science and my interests (like language learning). Recently most of my posts are dedicated to reviewing deep learning papers.
Many would disagree with you is the the point I was making, not that everyone should agree. Some don't think 32" 4k at 200% scaling is large enough while others don't think running a ~4k 16" MacBook at 100% scaling is too small to use. What's relevant is that 4k 32" at 100% scaling remains popular and should not be surprising to read about as a use case, despite whatever one's personal preference is.

Some of this comes down to visual acuity, viewing distance, and what one is used to as feeling normal. Things like changing font sizes are just another way at upping the scaling factor though.

I've recently decided to work on a blogging platform, LOL. We'll see how that goes.
My job is to sit and wait for emails to come in. I work with a team of 4 other people who are doing the same thing as me. Whether it is to build a job or make edits to a job, we wait. We have all been working together nearly a decade so we have it down a system: we rotate on who takes the work.

So to elaborate we have jobs and edits. Each Job that comes in goes to the person that came in according to when their shift started. Job #1 comes in at 8 or 9 AM. The very first person to arrive for their shift that day takes that Job. Job #2 comes in. The next person who came in takes it. And so on and so forth.

If a person is working on a Job, they do not take Edits. If no one has a Job, we all take turns taking Edits. If everyone has Jobs, then the person who is closest to being done fills in to take Edits, but if they already took an Edit, the next person who might also have a Job would take that Edit.

Is it a perfect system? It works. Sometimes work is doubled up. Sometimes a Job will come in towards the end of a person's shift. They are excused if they only have 3 or 4 hours left in their shift. Sometimes we can get slammed with several Jobs. Like yesterday, having to work July 3. It was slow all day. No one had any Jobs and very few Edits. My coworker called out, and everyone else from the earlier shifts went home early, while I got to "come in" (WFH) later, so I was the only one covering the shift. I got two Jobs, while everyone else got nothing because it was a slow early part of the day, yet busy later on, and there was no one but me working.

Fortunately, there are days where all the Jobs come in for the day and everyone has one and I might not get one that day. We all still get a paycheck regardless of who does more or less work. Sometimes it doesn't seem fair at times, but it usually balances itself out. At the end of the year, they show the tallies for who has done the most jobs. It's me every year. Doesn't change my paycheck or even help with bonuses.

Basically how I think of it is that I am paid to be on call. My company pays me to sit at a computer and be present and aware for 8 hours a day. By the way, I'm a web designer.
